Phantom of the Pirate

I don't know how long it took, Carmen seemed to have discovered something, stopped the practice at hand, turned her head and looked at Locke who was standing at the door and looking at her.

His face turned red for no reason, but it disappeared quickly. He pretended to be very angry and said with a straight face, "Hmph! What are you looking at, I haven't seen a beautiful woman before!"

"Yes! I've never seen such a beautiful one!" Locke said with a smile on his face.

"." Hearing Locke's words, Carmen's complexion had just returned to normal, and she turned red all of a sudden. What's even more amazing was that smoke came out of her head.

"That..." Carmen hesitated while grabbing the corner of her clothes, not knowing what to say.

"Okay! Okay! I won't tease you anymore!" Seeing Carmen's shy look, Locke quickly interrupted.Otherwise, if this continues, Locke is really worried that she will accidentally burn her brain out.

After speaking, Locke took Carmen's little hand and walked towards the living room.While walking, Locke turned his head and showed a nice smile to Carmen who was peeking at her behind him.

Seeing Locke look over, Carmen lowered her head even lower.

But fortunately, the road to the living room is not very long, otherwise Locke would absolutely believe that Carmen in this state would just find a crack in the ground and get in.

When they came to the living room, the two sat down facing each other.

"Carmen, I have something to tell you!"

"What... what's the matter!"

"I'm leaving this island tomorrow and going to other islands to learn kendo!"

"Leave? No way! You're leaving. I. How can I?"

"Okay, don't do this, just listen to me!"

When Carmen heard Locke's words, she looked at Locke with an aggrieved face, as if saying, if you say anything bad, I will cry for you.

"Listen to me, I called you here just to ask if you will come with me!"

"Go! Of course, you don't want to leave me alone. You promised me yourself that you would help me become the best chef in the world!" Hearing Locke's question, Carmen replied without thinking.

"Okay, you go and pack up and salute, we will set off tomorrow morning." Locke said directly when he saw Carmen agreeing.

So Carmen bounced and walked towards her room, as if the aggrieved expression on her face just now was fake.

"Little fool, why would I leave you behind if I want to leave!" Locke said in a low voice, watching Carmen leave.

After telling Carmen about leaving, Locke came directly to the beach as usual, and began to practice the knife swing he had practiced for a long time.

The sun rose and the sun set, and soon the day passed like this.

In the early morning of the second day, when the curtains were blown open with a gust of ocean breeze, the sun shone through the gap and shone into Locke's bedroom. The black-haired boy on the bed finally opened his eyes in a daze. , woke up.

After washing, Locke changed into a windbreaker with some dragon-shaped patterns embroidered on it. This dress was designed by Locke himself, and then he asked the tailor on the island to make it for him. This is also a little bit of Locke's nostalgia for his previous life.

Taking a Tang Dao with a blade about one meter long beside the bed, he left the bedroom directly and walked towards the hall downstairs. When he came to the hall, Carmen was already waiting in the hall.

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Dang took the luggage that the old butler had packed for him yesterday, and said to Carmen.

Carmen nodded, followed Locke's pace with her own luggage, and walked out of the house.

Walking to the door, slowly pushing the door open, the rising sun suddenly rushed towards them and sprinkled on their bodies.

Looking up, it is full of thin mist, like green smoke, covering the entire sea area near Crispi Island, making the whole island look like the fairy island of Penglai in myths and legends, like a dream.

"Let's go!" Carmen, standing behind Locke, looked at Locke in front of him, and said aloud.

Hearing Carmen's words, Locke came back to his senses, turned his head and nodded to Carmen, and took the lead and walked towards the pier in the town.

Walking slowly along the road, about six or seven minutes later, the two of Locke have arrived in the small town, and the people in the small town have already woken up and started a new day of work.Watching Locke walk by, he would nod to Locke with a gentle smile.

After walking through the town and walking for another 2 minutes, a small pier appeared in front of Locke and the two of them.

This pier is the only pier on the island. There are some small fishing boats parked on the pier, but the big boats are nowhere to be seen. Locke and the others are going to take a large merchant ship.

And this island is too remote, even a big boat can't stop, so Locke and Carmen had to take a fishing boat to the sea where the big boat stayed.In order to catch the merchant ship to Frost Moon Village.

As usual, today's port is almost empty, with only a few people on the few fishing boats, and the people on one of the boats are waving to Locke, gesturing for them to pass.

"Uncle Tie is you!" When Locke walked over with Carmen, he realized that it was the only blacksmith in the town waving to them, Uncle Tieyi Tie, who made the Tang knife on his body.

"Master Locke, you're welcome! Come! Come! Come! Sit down." When Locke and Carmen boarded the boat, Uncle Tie hurriedly arranged for them to sit down.

After the two sat down, Uncle Tie rowed the oars and headed for the distant sea.

Locke looked back at the island that was getting farther and farther away from him, feeling a little sad for no reason.I don't know when I will be able to return to this place again. All the industries on the island have been given to the old housekeeper by Locke.

At this time, as if seeing Locke's emotion, Carmen, who was sitting next to him, patted Locke's shoulder to comfort him.

"Okay, I'm fine! We'll be back later!" Locke withdrew his gaze and turned to Carmen next to him.

I don't know whether this sentence is for Carmen or for himself.

But Carmen nodded as a response.

The small fishing boat didn't drive for a long time, and saw a merchant ship in front of it quietly parked on the sea surface. It was a huge ship with a height of more than ten meters, and it just stopped there quietly, like a deep-sea cat sleeping Behemoth.

On the mast, the sails have been furled, leaving only a red chamber of commerce flag flying high on the top with the wind!
At this time, on the deck of the merchant ship, a middle-aged fat man in a suit, with a Chinese character face and two mustaches saw the fishing boat slowly coming towards him, and quickly waved at the sailor door behind him. Waved them to let the rope down so that Locke could go up.

"Ha! Ha! Little Locke! I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've grown up so much! Quick, come here and let Uncle take a good look."
