Chapter 121: Surprising news
Under the rule of the Kingdom of Kilby, in a tavern in a small village outside the royal city. Pen, Fun, and Pavilion www.biquge.info and a group of people are drinking inside with Bucky.
From Bucky's mouth, the group briefly learned about the Kingdom of Kilby, a small kingdom that occupies an island.
That's right, this is a small kingdom. In addition to a huge royal city, the entire kingdom consisted of more than a dozen small villages surrounding the royal city.
The island is covered with rainforest landscapes and extremely dense vegetation. Both the royal city and the ordinary village are flatlands forcibly cut out of the forest.
The only part of the island near the coast does not have many trees. In other words, if they wanted to go to the royal city, they had to pass through the forest.
As for other villages, some of them are like Bucky's village, bordering the treeless area along the coast, while others are completely hidden in the dense jungle.
"Anyway, what do you usually do, Bucky?" the inexplicable Shanks had a crush on Bucky.
What he did when he was in the village really shocked Shanks. That inexplicable obsession with the red nose......
Listening to the words Bucky in Shanks's mouth, Bucky was inexplicably moved. How many years hasn't anyone called him Bucky? Looks like it hasn't been since his mom died.
"Me?" said Bucky, silently sipping the beer in his hand. How long has it been since no one has invited him to drink? It seems that no one has ever invited him to drink.
"I usually play circus performances to make some money. Circus Bucky said with a rare smile. But the smile was quickly hidden.
"The circus show is really interesting, but the pay is too low. Bucky looked a little dazed. He seems to have an obsession with money.
Bit looked at Bucky, who was depressed at the mention of salary, and thought of his future obsession with treasure, and Bit suddenly wanted to know about Bucky's past.
"You seem to have a special obsession with money, Bucky?" Bit asked directly.
However, as soon as Bucky heard Bit's question, his whole person suddenly fell down. His face was filled with sadness.
Bit pursed his lips silently. He also noticed the sadness on Bucky's face. That kind of sadness that goes deep into the bone marrow.
"I'm sorry, Bucky. Accidentally touched your heart. Bit apologized to Bucky decisively and directly.
It seems that Bucky's obsession with money has a deep origin. And such a sad thing related to money...... It seems that it will be difficult to help Bucky get out of his obsession with treasure.
"If there is anything sad, just talk about it, and it may be better to say it. Shanks looked at a sad Bucky and persuaded him.
He had a good sense of Bucky, so he didn't want to see Bucky alone carrying that heavy and sad past.
Bucky clenched the glass in his hand. There was a color of struggle on his face. The knuckles of his right fingers, clutching the wine glass, turned white.
After a long time, Bucky's expression became relieved. He relaxed and leaned back in his chair. Bucky let out a long breath.
"The best doctors in our country are in the royal city. Bucky's deep voice rang out. Somehow, everyone in the tavern fell silent.
"The gates of the royal city will not be opened at night. Thirteen-year-old Bucky didn't look alive at all when he said this.
"Not everyone can live in the royal city. The houses in the royal city are horribly expensive. For my part-time job in the circus, I had to be a clown for two hundred and fifty years to buy a hut to live in the royal city. ”
Bit probably guessed what Bucky was trying to say, it was a doctor and a curfew. It's a sad story.
Bucky continued: "My mother was sick at night, but the royal city did not open at night, and the doctors who could treat my mother's illness were all in the royal city. ”
At this point, Bucky's voice was already filled with tears. He choked up and said, "My mother still didn't get to the city gate to open ...... in the end."
There was not the slightest sound in the entire tavern except for Bucky's sobs. Everyone listened silently to what Bucky had to say. They can empathize.
"So, I want to work hard to earn money, so that I can buy a house in Wang Chengnei. In this way, my child will not die because he is sick and not treated in time!"
The crowd did not interrupt Bucky's narration. Bucky's voice grew more and more agitated. His face became more and more hideous.
"But I need to work for two hundred and fifty years before I can buy the cheapest hut in the most remote corner of Wang Cheng!"
"I heard that the sea is full of countless treasures, I must be a pirate in the future, I will go to the sea to find treasures!"
"Hey, Rednose, you've just heard, didn't Captain Brooke twenty-five years ago still come out because of a legend, where do you think we've heard from him in the future?"
"Don't call me Rednose!" Bucky yelled at the man who spoke. But he didn't make any drastic moves.
"Captain Brooke?" Bit, they noticed the keyword. Brooke in the Devil's Triangle seemed to be the captain of the guard of a certain kingdom before he went out to sea.
"I'm sorry, but isn't Captain Brooke a music-loving exploding head?"
Bit stood up and walked over to the man who had just spoken, with two glasses of wine. He handed the man a glass of wine.
"Ah, yes. It's him, Nosesong Brooke, my captain back then. The brawny man with a scar on his face took the beer that Bit handed over.
"When a group of Rumba pirates came to us to take risks, I followed the captain to arrest them, but the captain ran away with them for some reason. ”
The strong man drank and became more talkative. "I really don't understand him, what man is going to run to the sea, I haven't heard his name for more than 20 years, he probably died on the sea, right?"
"No, he's not dead. He wanders the Devil's Triangle for a promise. Van Pika, who has always disliked words, opened his mouth and said.
None of the people in Roger's group who had come into contact with Rab were not moved by the friendship of the Rumba Pirates.
"What, Captain Brooke, he's still alive!" the scar-faced man looked surprised and excited. "How is that possible! Great shipping route, that's a man-eating sea!"
"He asked us to come to the West Sea to find traces of the Rumba Pirates. Bit looked at the strong man in front of him and said.
However, the scar-faced man could no longer hear Bit's words. The scar-faced man threw away his wine glass and covered his eyes with his free hands.
However, he could cover his eyes, but he couldn't hold back the tears that were left from his hands. "Captain Brooke...... It's great that he's alive!"
Bit did not disturb the memories of a man, a soldier, about his captain. After a long time, Scarface wiped the tears from his face and stood up.
He looked so high-spirited. "Twenty-five years ago, Captain Brooke wanted me to come with him on Captain Jokey's ship, but he refused. ”
"I regretted it for twenty-five years. Since Captain Brooke is still alive, I'm going to find him!"
The scar-faced strong man wiped away the tears from his face and stood up to look at the bit in front of him. "Thank you for telling me this. ”
With that, he walked straight to the door of the tavern. "I have been on this island for twenty-five years, and I have sold my life for the kingdom for ten years. ”
"However, I only now understand why Captain Brooke didn't do what he wanted to do when he was the captain of the Kingdom Guard. ”
"I bought my life for the kingdom for ten years, and I'll have to fend for myself in the village!" Scarface said in an impassioned tone.
"Rednose, I don't know if there's any treasure on the sea, but you'd better go to sea. Just like Captain Brooke. Even if you can't live in the royal city, what does it matter!"
"Don't call me Red Nose~~" This time Bucky's retort was not strong. He didn't know what he was thinking, that sentence was just a knee-jerk reaction.
