An empty rum bottle and two pieces of paper were placed on Lu Yuan's captain's desk.
These are the reward items found in Edward Law's golden treasure chest.

Number of uses: 3/3

The current Blackbeard Edward Teach, let alone knowing witchcraft, is just a fake pirate who didn't even think of a name. At present, he is just Misha's silly brother Edward. And as long as Misha doesn't have any accidents, If he didn't engage in such a bloody act, and with the protection of the lucky charm given to him by Lu Yuan, it was really a big question whether the Blackbeard in history could still appear!
And if he becomes Blackbeard, then who is the grandfather of the future pirate emperor Elizabeth Swann will be a bigger problem...
But the rules of the treasure box and the lottery are unreasonable! Lu Yuan even pulled out the "Dead Man's Box"! So it is reasonable and logical that this rum bottle appears here.
This bottle came at just the right time, and it can be said to have perfectly solved the problems of transporting and hiding a ship as big as the "Maria". Lu Yuanda could load the ship, then ride through Panama, and then release the ship. ——He can change the name to "Pacific Fleet".
It's a pity that there are only three opportunities to use it, so all nonsense is just nonsense. This must be reserved for the most critical time to use! Use it well. These are three real life-saving opportunities!
But now there are several people in the captain's room. No matter Auguste or Jacques, Elizabeth or Zhuo Xiaoji, no one is happy. They all hold their breath and look at the angry Lu Yuan, lowering their heads and keeping silent. .
The other two pieces of paper found in Edward Lowe's treasure chest were undoubtedly his own. Not only could he receive a large bounty in Spain, the Netherlands and France, but the funny thing was that the British and Morgans also wanted him. A high reward was also provided. This shows that the British government does not think that Edward Lowe is one of theirs!
As the saying goes, "Wanted posters don't lie, they just talk nonsense."
The key to the problem is another piece of paper. It was passed around in everyone's hands and eventually returned to Lu Yuan's hands. This was the source of Lu Yuan's anger.
Misha walked in with a cup of hot coffee and placed it in front of Lu Yuan. Then Misha held up her skirt and sat down close to Lu Yuan, silently showing her support for her man with her actions. Her movements were soothing, graceful and invisible. This relieved the tension in the room.
Lu Yuan felt the change in everyone's mood. He felt a little grateful to Misha, but also a little guilty. He was grateful for Misha's thoughtfulness, maybe it was a habit he developed when he often stayed up all night studying spells in the world of victory. Lu Yuan I like drinking hot coffee.
When he picks up the steaming cup, he can quickly relieve his emotions and calm down.
This was the only way for him to relax himself. Unexpectedly, the attentive Misha had noticed it and remembered it in his heart. Lu Yuan felt that he had been acting crazy recently and ignored Misha's feelings. Misha But unlike Anne and others, she lacks the ability to independently create a scene, and is actually just a weak little woman.
As a result, at this time, only Misha would think of pouring him a cup of coffee.
At this time, Lu Yuan no longer had anyone else in his eyes. He dropped the piece of paper in his hand on the table, reached out and held Misha's hand. When he felt the cold touch of the fingers, Lu Yuan felt a little distressed. She put her fingers together in her palms and slightly raised the Nine Yang Qi, which warmed Misha's fingers like a warm air ball.
When August saw the boss and his wife showing off their intimacy in public, he couldn't bear it and turned his head, and his eyes happened to fall on the piece of paper on the table.

British East India Company wanted notice:
A runaway slave named Lu Yuan is wanted! This slave once assassinated Napoli, the captain of our company...
He has a yellow appearance and is 6 feet tall...
There are unconfirmed reports that he is pretending to be the heir to a noble family in the Villarreal region of Portugal...
…
————
The portrait that was very similar to Lu Yuan's and the content on it instantly stung August's eyes! The corners of his eyes twitched and he looked away again, cursing in a low voice. Although one was white and the other was yellow, August, who had seen the boss's various magical methods, really couldn't stop thinking about the two. The relationship between.
Unfortunately, today, he has tens of thousands of pesos in his pocket! There is also the "Siren" lying in the dock that has just been repaired and looks almost like new! It can be said that as long as you marry another Bai Fumei, you can reach the pinnacle of life! In this case, does it matter whether the boss is a Portuguese aristocrat or an Oriental Indian? Or not?! Bullshit, it doesn’t matter at all!
.[,! ] But what would other people think? You know, faced with the East India Company’s overwhelmingly high price of wanted warrants, many people would even find it difficult to breathe. How many people can persist? This is a question.
"That's too much! I absolutely can't accept it!" Elizabeth couldn't bear it first and stood up, slapping the table! "He actually robbed nobles and reduced them to slaves, and he dared to..." She was stuck, and she couldn't continue talking even if there were some fallacies.
Because this is the seventeenth century!
Now the white people all over Europe are robbing the whole world in the name of God. In the latest propaganda doctrine, the yellow people, not to mention becoming nobles, just want to be classified as human beings. That is all they are doing in the East. After suffering a huge defeat, the whole of Europe was panicked and the belief system almost collapsed.
When the Mongols swept across Europe and lived in tents and spanked them, it was only two hundred years ago that they forgot about it.
Elizabeth thought for a while, then bit her lip and said to Lu Yuan, "Lu, don't worry. My family has some relatives with Governor Guaptilo, so we can definitely find a way to solve this problem! At most, we have to spend some money. , I will ask the British Governor in the Caribbean to stand on our side. Ask the East India Company to withdraw the wanted order..."
The more she spoke, the more she felt guilty. In fact, Elizabeth had no confidence in dealing with a behemoth like the East India Company and having it take back its orders.
"What will it cost?" Lu Yuan put down the cup, with no expression on his calm face. "At this time, there is always only one thing I have to do!" Lu Yuan tapped his fingers on the left side, and his voice sounded. The whole room echoed. "If you want war, I will give you war!"
August was stunned and looked at Lu Yuan with wide eyes in horror! Jacques, and almost everyone in the room looked like this! Zhuo Xiaoji, who almost laughed because of Lu Yuan's random plagiarism just now, now looked around and immediately put on a look of horror!
I have to say, her expression is much more professional... one look at her shows that she is an expert in panic.
What is the British East India Company? Within a hundred years, it was the largest monopoly company in the world! With Britain's century-long "East India Trade Charter", Europe still insisted that North and South America were the West Indies, and had its own countless fleets and armed forces. It can be said that Britain now has two legs overseas, one is the naval fleet. +Colonial armed forces, the other is the East India Company!
"The East India Company dares to treat me as a slave, then I will declare war on it! If Morgan dares to point fingers, then I will also declare war on Morgan! If the British dare to be dissatisfied, then I will declare war on the entire United Kingdom! I want Let them know what piercing pain is!" Lu Yuan clenched his fists and declared solemnly!
Listening to Lu Yuan's extremely arrogant declaration, the people in the room could hardly believe their ears!
Xiaoji was so amused that she opened her mouth again. Well, she was the only one in this room who knew that Lu Yuan was playing tricks. Because the only person in history who declared war on the whole world was named Cixi. This world probably no longer exists.
Elizabeth was shocked at first and was at a loss. Then her eyes turned red and she was heartbroken. Lu Yuan spoke so decisively, and where did she leave her entangled thoughts for Lu Yuan? "You are the best! You might as well challenge God." Gone!" Elizabeth yelled angrily, grabbed her skirt, and rushed out of the room without looking back. From a distance, she heard the sound of crying.
"You!" Misha complained and patted his shoulder, stood up and left. She quickly caught up with Elizabeth and comforted her.
"Boss... let's go out too." August thought Lu Yuan was talking angrily. Anyway, wherever Lu Yuan pointed, he would rush towards it! Since he has chosen to stay and continue to be the first mate, he must obey the captain in everything! So he pulled Jacques with a smile and hid together.
In the end, only Zhuo Xiaoji was left in the room, staring at Lu Yuan with big eyes.
"Are you real or fake?! It's very hard for people to endure after copying so many nonsense words!" Even Xiao Ji will complain.
"Besides, is it worth it? A slave or something is just a virtual identity arranged by the Lord God. Don't compete with a behemoth. Its infinite recovery ability and attitude of never admitting mistakes will eventually take up all of your mission time. , leaving you unable to do anything else.
Don't do these unprofitable things. Also, you take these NPCs and the content of the plot world too seriously... You will understand in the future that these are all false."
Xiao Ji was very sincere and told her all her experiences about the world of the Lord God. Although it was very utilitarian, it was really valuable, especially to be able to tell newcomers.
Lu Yuan touched his chin and said emotionally, "I'm not here to win or lose, I'm just serious."
Nima copied Lao Luo's quotations again, and the little chicken vomited.
British Colony, Port St. George.
The early morning thick fog filled the port, and the sailors sat on the pier, chatting easily. The content was nothing more than who had screwed whom again, and who had made a fortune. Those unlucky guys who lost everything last night also... There was free cool sea breeze to enjoy, so everyone gathered on the pier.
Because this is a foggy day, larger ships are not suitable for leaving the port until the thick fog dissipates.
So everyone was enjoying themselves leisurely and looking for various ways of entertainment. Perhaps the only ones who were anxious were the owners of the fresh produce.
As the morning sun rises, the thick fog seems to have faded a little. But for the basin-shaped St. George Port, the thick fog has really dissipated. [,! ], there is still a long way to go.
"That's a ship?" A sailor pointed to the thick fog outside the harbor with a smile and said with a little doubt. To be honest, it was just above the thick fog. A white corner was exposed, which looked like a mast. Even he himself wasn't sure about things like flags.
"It's a ship. It looks like...aha, a Caravel! That's right!" The old sailor chatting with him firmly seized this opportunity. He started by identifying the ship by looking at the mast, which was a show off. After talking for five minutes, he counted all the Caravel ships he had seen in his life!
"Ha. I dare say that this must be the worst-driven Caravel you have ever seen in your life." When he talked about the Caravel fishing boat he had seen in the North Sea, the young sailor interrupted him. .Pointing at the ship and joking, that ship was sailing crookedly.
Now the ship is not far away, and even the towering hull is vaguely visible. In the thick fog, a large area of shadow is reflected.
"No! It's going to hit the rocks!" After all, the old sailor was much more experienced. After he saw the route of the Caravel ship, he immediately shouted loudly, attracting the attention of many people.
Why don't all the ships leave the port? It's because there is a large area of shallow water reefs outside St. George Port! The difference between this kind of shallow water reef and the water surface is at most one foot. Some are above the water surface, and some are hidden below. These shallow water reefs flicker in and out of the waves and are very difficult to detect. Even the most experienced sailors dare not say I figured it out myself and clearly remembered all the reefs outside St. George Port!
But the old sailor was very sure that there must be a rock in front of the ship! Among the endless reefs in St. George Port, that reef is quite conspicuous! But the ship just followed the wind and slammed into the reef!
The heavy sound of the impact almost made everyone's teeth itch. "Can it hit like this? Is the helmsman a bad guy? How did it get here?" The young sailor spread his hands and expressed his disapproval. Understand. With his driving skills, he should have been smashed into pieces before the boat hit the rock.
"Stop talking nonsense!" the old sailor cursed. He had already ran over to untie the mooring rope of the boat. "Get on the boat right away! I guess the bottom of the boat can't bear it for a while!"
At this time, the patrol team on the dock also began to blow the whistle fiercely, and more than twenty small boats rushed out to rescue, including boats driven by old people and young people.
If your boat hits the rocks and is punctured like a fish on a skewer, your best bet is to lower the sails, stop turning the wheel and rudder, and stop and think carefully about what to do! But the ship's sails are still being unfurled at an inappropriate time, and the rudder seems to be turning randomly! As the waves swayed on the spiky rocks, they tore the breach bit by bit wider and wider!
"Ghost ship?!" the young man said with a trembling voice! We have now reached half the distance, so the young man can clearly see that there is no one on the deck... The boat came here by itself!
He put away the oars and said he didn't want to paddle any further! Ghost ships are not uncommon in this era, and most sailors know the reasons. Sometimes the sailors abandon the ship, sometimes they are cut off from water and food at sea, and in the end they all starve to death, leaving only the ship. Wandering. But more importantly, a plague broke out on the ship, killing everyone...
"It's probably full of damn plague up there! We shouldn't go up there! It's God's will to let it sink! It can save the whole harbor." The young man shouted loudly, trying to be heard by the surrounding boats.
More and more boats stopped, and they all obviously thought of this.
"It's not a ghost ship!" the harbor guard captain who came from behind also stood on the bow of the boat and shouted loudly, "that's the Pride, which belongs to the East India Company. Many of you should have seen her. , because she just left Port St. George for Africa a month ago! Today should be the day she comes back. It seems that something must have happened on the ship!
But I'm sure it's not a plague! We must work harder to rescue everyone on the boat! Everyone should remember that the person you save today will be the one who saves you tomorrow! "
"Row!" The old pirate gestured to the young man disdainfully and continued rowing. The young man seemed to have thought of something and shouted loudly to the captain of the guard. "Sir James, I remember the 'Pride' Is it a slave ship? What to do with the black slaves on the ship?"
"This fog is so thick! Damn it, I hope it will clear up at noon." The captain of the guard shouted without answering the question, but he undoubtedly sentenced all the black slaves to death. And all slaves should be On the bottom two floors. Even if we are not dead, we are not far away now... "Let's hurry up and get on the ship... God!"
He was shocked by what he saw in front of him and swallowed back what he was going to say next! Captain James stared dumbfounded at the big ship in front of him. Jane, the captain of the East India Company's "Pride", was hanged from the main mast of the ship! His body was swaying, and the wind exuded a putrid smell. It smelled like dead fish!
Looks like it's been dead for some days!
"Help!" "Is there anyone outside?!" "Help us!" "Oh God!..."
Just when Captain James was shocked and didn't know what to do, the boat approaching the ship finally heard the sound coming from the ship. It was an extremely noisy, but extremely neat call for help and prayer!
"Did the pirates do it?" Captain James turned around and asked the person behind him. He was a guy who climbed up through connections. When encountering this situation, he was completely panicked.
"Save the people first! They...[,!] are locked in the bottom warehouse!" On the adjacent ship, the old pirate couldn't help shouting, "They are locked in the place where the slaves were! At most, there are Five minutes! Let's get on!" After saying that, he pulled the young man and climbed onto the boat along the cable rope first.
What those people shouted was pure European language, and slaves didn't speak like that at all!
…
With the concerted efforts of dozens of boats, most of the crew members were rescued. Their hands and feet were chained like slaves, and they were all skinny, with the stench of the bottom warehouse exuding all over their bodies! It is said that the first person who entered was knocked unconscious by the smell of that place. Apart from them, there were some rancid biscuits, fish, and expired water in the bottom warehouse.
Complete slave treatment! As long as fifteen days!
The small half of the people who died were not drowned by the sea water that poured in after hitting the rocks! They had been hung on chains a few days ago and turned into corpses! What's ridiculous is that almost all of them died of disgraceful slave diseases. Just like God said, whites and blacks are different. Same treatment, same diseases. The evaluation of blacks will be "only half of them died" ", the slave owner will curse and announce that they have made a lot less money. And the evaluation of the white people will be "only survived more than half", the guard captain James announced that the scene is so tragic that no one of God's people can sit back and watch!
…
None of this affects those noble people.
Captain Jane's body was simply wrapped with the East India Company flag hoisted on a ship, and was quietly delivered to a remote courtyard of the Governor's Palace. The Governor was standing there waiting with an indifferent expression.
After seeing the corpse, his eyebrows twitched, and he resisted the desire to turn his head and leave immediately, forcing himself to get closer to the corpse!
He took out a white linen handkerchief, covered his nose, and looked carefully at Jane, who was his guest a month ago and was now a corpse.
A pirate scimitar penetrated Jane's chest with great force, breaking at least four or five hard bones along the way! ——It seemed that this was the knife that killed him. The governor took out the thin sword on his waist and opened the flag that Jane was wearing. Sure enough...
There was a piece of paper stuck on the blade of the scimitar, and the scimitar pierced it and Jane together, stringing them together.
The paper was dark red in color, and the contents were barely legible. The blood from Jane's body soaked the paper, and then the sea breeze dried it.
But the Governor of Port St. George knew without even looking at it that it was a wanted notice from the East India Company for an Eastern slave named "Lu Yuan"! He picked up the lower edge of the paper with the tip of his sword, and sure enough he saw the iconic three characters, which were the messages left by the oriental slave to the entire British East India Company.
--"do not bother me!"
The font is bold and unrestrained, and the situation is tense!
The Governor sighed and threw the stained rapier aside. After wiping his hands with a linen handkerchief, he threw it on Jane's body.
"Pride" is the seventh ship this month!
