Chapter 37: The Tree Bridge
"As long as President Mooregans is satisfied, I will definitely be promoted and raised!"
The man thought excitedly.
His name is Dale, and he is a reporter for the World News Agency, whose main mission is to track and report on some pirates with rising star potential.
On every Island of Beginnings, there are journalists like Dale.
What they write may not necessarily be used by news agencies, but the pirates they can target are mostly pirates with high bounties and fame enough to reach the Great Passages.
Among these pirates with unlimited potential, there are often a few more outstanding beings, and then sparks and lightning all the way to the Chambord Islands, the end of the first half of the Great Passage.
At that time, the reputation that has been piled up by various reports has created their supernova name.
To put it bluntly, behind the name of every supernova pirate, there is always no shortage of behind-the-scenes promoters.
And the people behind it are the newspaper reporters who have contributed to them.
Like Bacardi. Maude, a supernova candidate who is clearly the number one dark horse, has long been on Dell's attention list.
So, after hearing Dadan's loud and emotional voice, Dell immediately found a suitable place to watch.
"This guy nicknamed Turkey seems to have the potential to be a journalist, so I'll have to find a time to get in touch with him, and ask him about his wishes by the way."
In Dyer's view, Turkey Dada's touting efforts are so powerful that it would be a waste of talent not to be a copywriter.
In addition to calculating, Dale held a telescope and closely watched Maud and the others on the shore.
The so-called "masterpiece" is just a windfall, and if it is qualified to fill the serial gap in the newspaper page, it is naturally something that Dell likes to see.
After all, as a recommender, he will definitely increase his weight in the heart of President Mörgaons.
But the most important thing at the moment is the content of the report on the number one dark horse.
"Last year it was Fire Punch Ace, this year it's Bacardi. Maude ......"
Dale's binoculars locked on the smiling Maude, and he couldn't help but close his mouth with excitement.
"Luck just can't stop it."
Seven routes, but he waited for Bacardi on the Twin Islands. Maude, isn't that luck or what?
Even if it was just a high-definition frontal photo of Maude and faxed to President Mooregas, it would certainly be worth a month's work in writing a story.
If Maud can make a big deal on the Twin Islands, it will be the best.
........
Shoreline.
Under Maude's admiration, Dada seems to see a new path in life.
He took the book from Maude and put it away quite solemnly.
I have a confidant and no regrets.
Since the idols have said so, then no matter whether the road ahead is light or dark, he must move forward!
"Brother Maude, let's go straight to the restaurant in town."
After a few conversations, Dada had the courage to call Maude by name.
Although he is more than ten years older than Maude, it will not prevent him from putting the eldest brother honorific title on Maude.
"Hmm."
Maud nodded.
Before the record pointer is full, they must be going to the town to resupply a wave.
However, this is obviously not a good place, so someone had to be left to guard the ship.
You know, they have nearly 600 million Bailey on board.
Such a huge amount of money is enough to make the money-hungry people on the island crazy.
"Leave one person to watch the boat."
Maud looked at his companions.
With Jim's strength, it would be a bit difficult to stay alone.
The more suitable candidate can only be chosen between Lafayette and Jaya.
"I'll stay."
Lafayette glanced at Jaya and offered to ask.
Whether Jim or Jaya stayed, he was a little uneasy.
Moreover, Jaya is the chef on the ship, and she must be indispensable if she wants to go to the town to buy ingredients.
Without much thought, Lafayette took the initiative to respond to the matter.
Maude's thoughts were similar to Lafayette's, and he decided the matter directly.
Dada cautiously suggested, "Actually, let my brothers guard the ship and make sure nothing happens!" ”
It's just a broken ship, so why bother Lafayette to stay and guard it.
That's what he really thinks.
However, on what he thought was a broken ship, there was money that he could not earn in his lifetime.
How could Maud let outsiders guard the huge sum of money on the ship, and quietly declined Dada's proposal.
Then, a group of people walked in the direction of the town.
Before leaving, Dada thoughtfully left five brothers for Lafayette to send.
Haruki Island is full of greenery, and at a glance, it is full of pleasing flowers and trees.
The island's towns are built on the shore, and under the influence of the spring-like climate of the four seasons, the towns can be seen everywhere with green belts, and there are even many semi-treehouse characteristic buildings.
In the middle of the town is a straight, wide stone avenue that divides the town in two, leading to a large tree that connects the two islands.
Listening to the introduction of the tour guide Dada, Maude and the others had a preliminary understanding of Chunzi Island.
They walked across the coastline to the place where Maude jokingly called the Yin-Yang Tree its roots.
The entwined roots of the trees went deep into the ground and left a rope-like bridge on the ground.
One side of the tree leads to a stone path that runs out of the town, while the other side leads to a bridge under a giant tree that stands above the canal, and further afield, the snowy Winter Island.
That's right.
The weather on Chunzi Island is sunny and the spring breeze is blowing, while the Dongzi Island on the opposite shore is cloudy and cloudy.
This strange contrast between spring and winter, even in the great waterway, is one of the rare wonders.
"Dada, what's the name of this tree?"
Maud withdrew his gaze from the snowy landscape on the other side, and instead looked at the volley bridge made of tree roots and the huge bridge hole under the tree, and asked the name of the giant tree.
Dada hesitated for a moment when he heard this, and said, "I don't know the original name of this big tree, but I know that everyone calls it Tree Bridge." ”
"Tree Bridge ......"
Maude was speechless, who took the name, although it is appropriate for the image, but it is too level.
It's not as good as the yin and yang tree he took.
The crowd didn't linger long, and after a closer look at the tree bridge, they stepped onto the stone avenue and walked towards the fairyland-like town.
"Dog, stop me!"
At this moment, there was an angry shout from the front of the stone road.
A teenager in a heavy cotton jacket was running with his head buried in his head and carrying a bag of things.
Behind the young man, a big man with a fierce face came after him.
The angry shout just now came from this big man.
"Dare to steal Lao Tzu's things!"
The big man raised his gun and fired several shots at the young man.
However, only one shot left a bloody trail on the boy's arm, which did not affect the boy's escape.
The boy quickly ran to the tree root bridge road, and when he looked up, he saw Maude and his party.
The young man's gaze met that of Maude, his face with a lot of frostbite tightened slightly, and he deliberately distanced himself to the side, and then crossed Maude and the others, successfully ran up the tree root bridge, and headed towards Dongzi Island.
The big man who was chasing with a gun chased here, and could only watch the boy flee.
"Dog thing!"
The big man was furious and spat at the young man's back.
The anger that was difficult to vent made him focus on Maude and the others who stayed out of the way.
"Do you have no eyes or no ears? Don't you know how to stop the beasts coming from Dongzi Island? ”
As the big man spoke, he pointed a gun at Maude and the others.
On both sides of the town, many eyes are looking at this side.
Dada couldn't help but be angry when he saw the big man's anger on them.
Just as he was about to teach the big man a lesson, he saw Maude suddenly appear in front of the big man, grabbed the big man's neck with one hand, and restrained the big man's arm with the other, so that the muzzle of the gun was raised to the sky.
"If you dare to point your gun at us, you must be prepared to be killed by me."
Maude looked at the big man in front of him indifferently.
Without waiting for the big man to react, Maude's palm exerted force and directly broke the big man's neck.
There was a hint of strangeness in the many eyes that looked at Maude.
Ruthless enough.
Meanwhile.
The young man who had almost reached the bridge cave looked back.
saw the corpse of the big man who fell to the ground softly, and immediately subconsciously sped up his steps.
