The World of Pirates

Chapter 22 Principles
Li Cha was thinking about the problem in his mind just now, so he didn't speak.

[Just now, I seemed to be murderous, possessed? 】

To put it simply - killing crazy.

"Go and throw all the corpses into the sea, and then clean the boat." Li Cha ordered the pirates who stood like fourteen stone sculptures.

The pirates were relieved and let them do their work, which meant that they survived temporarily!

Regardless of the pirates carrying corpses and cleaning the deck on the ship, Li Cha walked to the bow deck and sat cross-legged with his back facing the sea.

Pull out Wuming again, lay it on your knees, and look at it by the moonlight.

The originally bright pear flesh on the knife body was now stained with a faint blood red.

This is because Li Cha's grinding skills are not good enough, there are tiny roughness on the knife body, blood remains on it, staining the knife body red.

Originally, the boiling and air at the edge of the blade were intertwined and connected, like a boiling river, but under the color of this layer of blood, it was like a sea of ​​blood, ready to choose someone and devour it.

[There are fifty or sixty dead souls under this unmarked knife.Just now, I seemed to be confused by the murderous intent. 】

"It's not good." Li Cha said softly.

It's not that Li Cha felt that he had killed too much and hurt the harmony of nature.It was Li Cha who didn't want to be controlled by his murderous heart and turned into a walking dead who only knew how to kill.

Killing is a means, not an end.

If being killed controls his mind, loses himself, and takes pleasure in killing, Li Cha absolutely cannot accept it.

[Desire can only be my slave, and it must not be turned into the master! 】

Although this is a world where the strong are respected, the sea symbolizes freedom, and the absolute strong have absolute freedom.

But if you can't abide by your heart, the so-called freedom is nothing more than being coerced by desires, so how can you talk about freedom?
After discovering such signs, Li Cha decided to set a few bottom lines and principles for himself to help him overcome his inner demons.

[First of all, if the other party has no way to kill, I can't kill randomly. 】

[Secondly, a knife is a murder weapon. If it is not necessary, I will not draw the knife. 】

Li Cha set two principles for himself.

As for what is "the right way to die", what is the "necessary" situation?
Ha ha, this is completely attested by Li Cha's free heart.

After all, Li Cha didn't want to be a saint, he just wanted to control himself.

From body to soul, from self to destiny, everything must be under the control of "I"!

Isn't that what power is all about?

Li Cha got up, slowly sheathed the saber again, and finally all the murderous aura that was vaguely present on his body subsided.

Recalling the gains from the battle just now, and further mastering his own mind, Li Cha showed a satisfied smile on his face.

【How can I say that killing pirates is a good thing?This is simply rewarding. 】

Not to mention that now Richard also got a big boat.

A pirate next to Li Cha who was cleaning the deck, inadvertently saw the smile on Li Cha's face, combined with the blood on his face, it was scary no matter how you looked at it.

As a result, the action of wiping the deck with the pirate's hand couldn't help but be faster...

Just now he was busy digesting the harvest after the battle, Li Cha hadn't paid attention to the blood stains on his body, but now that he came back to his senses, he felt his whole body was sticky and uncomfortable.

Li Cha didn't think too much, and jumped into the sea from the deck, planning to clean it up.

The remaining fourteen pirates on board were very confused by Li Cha's jumping into the sea.

All of them stopped what they were doing, you looked at me, I looked at you, wide-eyed and small-eyed.

The demon is gone?Now we are free?

The corpses of the pirates had been thrown into the sea. Looking at the bloody deck under the moonlight, the pirates felt like a dream.

wow-

Just when they were doubting their lives and did not believe that they had regained their freedom, Li Cha jumped onto the deck again.

Uh, it's right not to believe.

······
Li Cha ordered the pirate to bring him clean clothes, changed them on the deck, and then took a look at his current image:

The upper body is a white long-sleeved shirt with two buttons unbuttoned, the lower body is black linen trousers, and a pair of black long leather boots are on the feet. The black scabbard with no name is inserted obliquely at the waist, and his long hair is tied behind his head and hangs down to the bottom of his head. lower back.

Although it was very ordinary clothes, Li Cha's figure was well proportioned, with a straight back and waist, and a tall and straight figure.Standing on the deck, with the sea breeze blowing through Li Cha's long hair, he really felt like a handsome young man.

After all, Li Cha's current body is only 15 years old.

Richard opens the property panel:
Name: Richard

年龄：15岁3个月9天5小时40分18秒

Height: 175 cm
Constitution: 108
Power: 128
Agility: 145
Intelligence: 10
Status: healthy
Skills: Wo Liu Swordsmanship LV3.127, Treading Waves LV2
After going to sea for a month, Li Cha grew another 2 centimeters taller, and his physique, strength, and agility also increased slightly.

Most importantly, the sword skills that had been stagnant before also increased after the battle just now.Although not much, as long as there is progress, Li Cha is very satisfied.

[Presumably after I sort out and digest the experience of this battle, the level of swordsmanship should be raised to LV3.2.But if you want to make further progress, you still need to fight more people. 】

Thinking of fighting, Li Cha couldn't help but reach out and pull the hair on the back of his head to his eyes.

Usually it doesn't matter, but in the previous battle, Li Cha found that this long hair was a bit of a hindrance, and it affected his sight several times.

After pondering for a moment, Li Cha pulled out Wu Ming and cut off his long hair up to his shoulders.Looking at the cut hair in his hand, Li Cha said to himself:
"I'm getting farther and farther away from the image of the sword fairy with fluttering hair and white clothes."

There is no way, the style of painting in this world does not seem to have the kind of "one sword to the west, flying immortals from the sky", choosing to practice swordsmanship is Li Cha's last insistence.

[When you arrive in the town, you have to find a barber to trim your hair. ] Li Cha touched his cut hair and thought.

Now that I have decided to switch to short hair, it is natural to take good care of it.It's just that now Li Cha has no tools around him, and secondly, he doesn't have this skill, so he can only make do with it.

"Is the cook dead?" Li Cha shouted loudly.

After changing his clothes and cutting his hair, Li Cha now wants to eat something.

In fact, when he soaked in the sea yesterday afternoon and smelled the smell of food on board, he was already very hungry and thirsty.

Who can resist the temptation of a steaming mouthful of food after floating at sea for so long?

"Master... my lord, I am the cook on the ship." The pirate who wiped the deck next to him stammered with a flinching expression.

"Oh, very good." Li Cha was even more satisfied.

Just now, he killed people randomly on the ship, but he didn't expect that the most important navigator and cook were not killed, which made him feel quite pleasantly surprised.

In fact, this is because Li Cha didn't turn his head around. Generally speaking, the navigators and cooks on board are non-combatants.

When Li Cha caused chaos on the boat just now, the cook did come out to observe the situation, but after seeing Li Cha killing people like cutting melons, he immediately ran back to the kitchen and hid.

When he heard the shout of surrender from the boat, he immediately ran out again and raised his hands high to surrender.

In a sense, this cook is also a talent.

The person who knows the current affairs is Junjie.
