This pirate only wants to farm.

Chapter 6 Farming Life on the Ghost Ship

At dawn, as the first rays of sunlight fall upon the gray fog, the windless sea, enveloped in the fog, is instantly dyed red.

Lin Qi stood on the ridge of the field, observing the growth of the plants as usual. A fair-skinned figure carefully walked out of the cabin. When she saw Lin Qi and Wangcai on his shoulder, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Captain, Wangcai, good morning."

After speaking, he looked up and hesitated for a moment, glancing at the slightly swaying skeleton, before timidly saying, "Good morning, Second Officer."

The skeleton hanging on the mast swayed its arms slightly twice in response.

Lynch smiled and nodded with satisfaction at Elizabeth's attire: "Good morning, sailor. I think this outfit suits you better than yesterday's."

At this moment, Elizabeth was dressed in a men's sailor uniform, with dark blue trousers and a white sailor top, and a red scarf wrapped around her head.

Although this outfit is very ordinary and would look unremarkable on any sailor, it has a unique charm when worn by Elizabeth.

Elizabeth's measurements were exaggerated, making her originally thin sailor uniform bulge out, and a quick glance at the loose and breathable neckline revealed an unfathomable cleavage.

The red scarf wrapped around her head, covering her long golden hair, did not obscure Elizabeth's temperament; on the contrary, it made her appear even more heroic.

Upon hearing Lynch's words, Elizabeth's face turned bright red.

You know, she was wearing a corset and underwear and swaying around on the ghost ship for a long time yesterday. Even Elizabeth, who is usually very easygoing, couldn't stand it.

At first, Lin Qi hesitated about whether to give her this outfit, since being able to see beautiful scenery every day is a pleasant thing.

But it seems pretty good now.

Elizabeth was like a kettle that was about to boil over, with steam seemingly rising from her ears and head. Especially when she saw Lynch's handsome smile, Elizabeth dared not look up.

The thought of spending so much time in front of the ghost captain dressed like that yesterday made Elizabeth feel hot all over, so ashamed that she wished she could disappear into a crack in the wooden plank.

It's all because yesterday's events were so shocking, and I was also exhausted, that I completely forgot about such things.

"Um, Captain, is there anything I need to do?"

Lin Qi raised an eyebrow, surprised that Elizabeth had adapted to her new identity so quickly.

Judging from her previous attire, I thought it would take her a while to accept this identity.

"The bone meal fertilizer from yesterday has been mostly digested. Go and break off some more. Wangcai, go and bring her the oil lamp."

With a squeak, Wangcai leaped into the air and landed on Elizabeth's shoulder.

Elizabeth nodded quickly, her face flushed, and she scurried into the cabin as if fleeing.

Lin Qi chuckled: "This girl's reaction time is even longer than I imagined."

"Didn't she realize yesterday that she was dressed in a rather... inappropriate way?"

Lin Qi clicked his tongue twice and turned to walk towards the breadfruit planting area. But before he could check the ripeness of the breadfruit, he heard a shrill scream.

Then Elizabeth was seen running out of the cabin screaming, carrying the entire leg bone, which was still struggling wildly in her hands.

Despite Elizabeth's pale face, she was surprisingly quick.

She shoved the leg bone directly into the large iron bowl, picked up the stone pestle, and began smashing it against the bowl, screaming in agony as she did so.

"Oh my god, that scared me to death!"

"Mom, Dad!"

"Waaaaah..."

Seeing Elizabeth weeping bitterly but showing no mercy in her actions, Lynch's lips twitched violently.

Even the little monkey Wangcai, who had run back, had a complicated expression on his face, biting his black little finger, his expression twitching with each of Elizabeth's blows.

For a moment, it was hard to tell whether to pity Elizabeth or the bone she had smashed to pieces.

Even the second mate, who was hanging on the mast, trembled twice from the vibrations of Elizabeth's hammer.

Lin Qi shook his head: "Looks like things will get lively on the ship from now on."

Turning his gaze away, Lin Qi looked at the grove of breadfruit in front of him.

Plant Name: Breadfruit Bush.

[Level: 2.]

[Plant Information: This plant produces unique fruits with a texture and taste similar to bread, and is rich in carbohydrates, making it a good alternative to staple foods.]

[Plant status: Ready for harvest. (The plant is expected to enter the next fruiting period in 4 days after fertilization.)]

Lin Qi's eyes lit up slightly: "It's actually matured? And its level has even increased by one!"

This is quite a pleasant surprise.

You should know that Lynch had been eating top-grade breadfruit all along, and the taste was not much different from ordinary bread. Apart from being more moist, it was simply the best substitute for bread.

Now that it's been upgraded to level two, the taste should be even better, right?

Since Lynch has slowly recovered his internal organs, he has also developed a need for food, and among these foods, breadfruit and citrus fruits are the most important.

Breadfruit can provide him with carbohydrates, while citrus fruits provide vitamins; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to live so leisurely on this windless sea by just eating fish.

The land in the Windless Sea is scarce, and even where there is land, there are many dangers. In addition, Lin Qi's ghost ship has no way to control its direction and can only drift around.

Resupplying was impossible; breadfruit and citrus fruits were Lynch's most important resources.

Wangcai had already noticed Lin Qi's urgency. It jumped off his shoulder and crawled back into the cabin. In a short while, it came back to Lin Qi's feet carrying a huge basket.

Lin Qi smiled and ruffled Wangcai's hair: "Well done."

Then he picked a breadfruit that was slightly different from the usual ones.

Grade 1 breadfruit is as big as a palm, but Grade 2 breadfruit is much smaller, only about half the size of a palm.

"Is it only this small?"

Lin Qi picked it and squeezed it, finding it to be quite soft, several times softer than a first-grade breadfruit.

[Fruit Name: Second-Grade Breadfruit]

[Fruit Information: A softer, more fluffy breadfruit with a rich, milky aroma.]

"Has the taste changed?"

Without a second thought, Lin Qi tore off a piece and put it in his mouth, feeling the fine, soft bread melt in his mouth. Lin Qi's eyes widened in surprise.

"Isn't this the same little bread from my past life?"

The familiar taste lifted Lin Qi's spirits, and he picked another piece of breadfruit and handed it to Wangcai.

Wangcai curiously took a bite, and then his eyes lit up, and he ate even faster.

This rich milky aroma is a flavor that Wangcai has never tasted before.

"This is definitely not suitable as a main dish, but it would be quite good as breakfast or dessert."

Lin Qi naturally knew the destructive power of Dali Fang's small bread, and then affectionately rubbed Wangcai's monkey head.

Wangcai squeaked twice, urging Lin Qi to hurry up and pick the fruit.

Lin Qi smiled and began to pick all the breadfruit from the secondary fruit bush.

Experience points +2.

Experience points +2.

Experience points +2...

The orchard wasn't very large, and Lin Qi quickly picked half a basket of small breadfruits.

A small loaf of bread earned Lynch 2 experience points, and this single harvest earned him 200 experience points.

We're one step closer to level 10.

Looking at the 300 experience points left, Lin Qi stroked his chin: "It seems like it won't be as long as 5 days before I reach level 10."

"The tangerines will be ready to be harvested again the day after tomorrow, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, I should be able to gather just enough experience points..."

"Hey, that's really good."

Lynch was in a good mood after reaping the new crop, and he fertilized the few remaining farmlands in rhythm with Elizabeth's pounding.

The 20-square-meter farmland was divided into four equal parts, and each part was filled with plants.

He gave every plant in the farmland a burst of growth, and watching the plants grow slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye filled Lin Qi with indescribable satisfaction.

After sprinkling the bone meal, Lynch carried the basket to the open space in front of the captain's cabin and said to Elizabeth, who was still somewhat shaken, "Come and try the new variety I grew; it's perfect for tea and snacks."

Elizabeth finally came to her senses and carefully took a soft, fragrant bread from Lynch's hand.

"Thank you, Captain."

Elizabeth held a small loaf of bread, its enticing aroma filling her nostrils, but her eyes were secretly glancing at the wicked ghost ship captain.

The captain didn't seem like one of those filthy pirates at all, nor did he seem like a terrifying ghost ship captain.

Surprisingly, he was kind and approachable...

Looking at the smile on Lynch's face that seemed to dispel the thick fog, Elizabeth couldn't help but have a question in her mind.

How did someone like that become the captain of a ghost ship?

Could it be because of some terrible curse?

But looking at his gentle demeanor, he doesn't seem to be cursed at all...

Lost in thought, Elizabeth took a small bite of bread. The rich aroma of milk and wheat made her squint her eyes, and all her questions vanished from her mind.

"So delicious!"

Ignoring Elizabeth's expression, Lin Qi looked up at the mast and said to Wangcai, "Go get a few for our second mate too."

Wangcai, with a small piece of bread in its mouth, was about to set off when it looked up and saw the skeleton hanging on the mast suddenly turn around and point towards the stern.

Wangcai suddenly stopped what it was doing and turned around. As if it had sensed something, it grabbed Lin Qi's earlobe and started squeaking.

Lin Qi immediately understood: "It seems they're quite fast; they arrived just in time."

Elizabeth looked completely bewildered: "What are you talking about?"

Lin Qi's gaze towards the dazed Elizabeth became meaningful:

"The pirates who caused you to fall into the water are catching up."

"Do you want to go take a look?"
