Chapter 5: Old Porter's Wrath (2)
After listening to Parker's explanation, Old Potter did not make a sound, but opened his eyes wide and stared at the unconscious gray-haired Terran youth tightly, and then his trembling body gradually subsided.
After half a ring, Old Potter asked in a cold voice, "When you rescued him, were there any other sea tribes around?"
Parker stood up with Old Potter in his arms, shook his head and said, "No, it was just me." ”
"Do you know who he is?"
Little Parker's eyes were full of doubts, "I don't know......"
"Then why did you get him back!"
Old Porter's voice suddenly increased several times over, and Parker fell to the ground in fright.
Startled by Old Porter's roar and sudden anger, little Parker was a little aggrieved and a little unclear So, he didn't understand why his grandfather suddenly became so angry, was it wrong to save people?
The fins behind Parker's ears were tightly hugged, and bean-sized tears ran down his dirty face, slid over the fine pale blue scales, and fell to the ground.
But even when Old Potter saw Parker's tears, the anger in his heart did not subside in the slightest.
"Do you know that your stupid actions will cause us hell!" said Old Porter's eyes widened and his expression contorted, clearly furious.
Little Parker shook his head repeatedly, tears fell in strings, and stammered, "I...... I ......"
Old Potter's blue eyes were bloodshot, his bones were bruised, and his teeth were clenched together. His face trembled uncontrollably, and his voice was even colder as winter, "When you were receiving food today, didn't you see the wanted notice posted on the stone gate?"
"When you get the food?" little Parker blinked, his tear-filled eyes and a few wrinkles between his brows. "No, when I was receiving food, there was nothing on the stone door. ”
"Alas......" Old Potter sighed helplessly, tilted his head and closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
In fact, it is no wonder that little Parker is saving people. A wanted notice posted on the stone gate. It was an island-wide wanted issued by Wangcheng temporarily, and Little Parker didn't see it at all.
Little Parker glanced at the gray-haired Terran youth lying on the boat in a coma, then looked up at Old Potter, and asked puzzledly, "Grandpa, is this Terran a wanted person?"
Old Potter, whose eyes were closed, nodded, answering Parker's question.
At this time, little Parker finally understood why Grandpa was so angry and so frightened when he saw this celebrity. Parker's eyes were complicated as he looked at the gray-haired Terran youth who was in a coma. I didn't know what to say for a while.
Old Potter opened his eyes, and there was a hint of determination in his eyes, "I have to get him into the hands of the overseer as soon as possible, or the consequences will be even more unimaginable." ”
"But...... He's still in a coma, let's ......" Little Parker said halfway, but he couldn't say any more, as slaves, they couldn't even protect themselves, how could they have the extra strength and mind to care about the life and death of others? This celebrity-born young man was not yet of his own kind.
Old Potter didn't know what Parker meant, and he had such a thing as a good thought when he was younger. But in this hellish and cruel world, the kindness of the slaves is nothing more than a pitiful joke.
More often than not, the slave's good thoughts will turn into a sharp dagger that kills the owner of the good thoughts.
Old Potter sighed repeatedly, "Don't think about anything else, now send this Terran to the Overseer." We don't know if we will end up alive or dead, but if we don't deliver him to the overseers, we will end up with endless torture and death-like pain. ”
"Now, we can only beg for the protection of the sea god......"
said that it was begging for the protection of the sea god, but in fact, it was just a ridiculous comfort.
The Sea Clan became a slave to the Abyssal Clan. has been around for thousands of years. For such a long time, the god of the sea has not protected his people, how can he beg the god of the sea to be able to do it at this moment? Old Potter couldn't help but smile to himself.
"Grandpa, why did we send him to the overseer, and his fate is still unknown? Shouldn't this be a meritorious service?"
Old Potter looked at Parker, and when he saw the innocent eyes of little Parker and the eyes with tears still remaining, Old Porter suddenly felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
"Those bone demons who kill people without blinking an eye are bloodthirsty demons, I will send this wanted Terran to them, even if it is blessed by the sea god without a short whip, who would dare to beg for a good result......?"
Although Old Potter said this in a low voice, as if he was muttering to himself, Parker Jr. heard the content clearly.
In fact, little Parker has lived in this hellish world since he was born, how can he not understand the truth that the status of the Sea Clan, as a slave, is inferior to that of livestock. It's just that he hasn't been shackled yet, and he hasn't really experienced the darkness of this world.
"Shall we ...... Will you send him to the overseer now?" Little Parker's struggle and pity could be clearly seen in the eyes of the gray-haired Terran youth, "but he ...... Will you be tortured by the overseers?"
"What will happen to him in the hands of the overseer, can only rely on his own luck, we can't even protect ourselves, it's really ......"
Old Potter shook his head, "I'll send him to the overseer, saying that I found him on the beach, but don't go with you." ”
"Why?"
Old Porter didn't answer Parker's question, but sighed and said, "If Grandpa doesn't come back tonight, don't go to Grandpa, just live as usual......"
"Bring back your daily bread on time, and by the time you are twelve, you will understand all this......
Old Potter muttered to himself, shaking his head constantly, "It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive......"
With that, Old Potter picked up the gray-haired Terran youth who was still in a coma, whispered to the Terran youth, "You ask for more blessings", and walked out of the tent.
However, seeing that little Parker had the intention of sneaking up, Old Potter hurriedly turned around, glared at Parker with anger on his face, and shouted, "If you dare to follow, I will die in front of you!"
After saying a cruel word, little Parker finally gave up, turned back to the tent, and did not dare to follow him again.
Little Parker sat back in the tent, looking at the staggering old Porter dragging the shackles and chains, accompanied by the screeching sound of "bang, bang, bang" disappeared from his sight, little Parker's eyes once again flowed clear tears, and there was a strong pain in his chest.
............
On the way, Old Porter, who was carrying a young Terran man, walked slowly along the narrow path between the tents, and the slaves who were resting in their tents looked at Old Porter and said nothing.
Everywhere Old Potter passed, his eyes were all together, and his eyes were different.
Almost all of the Sea Clan slaves knew Old Potter, as Old Potter was the tallest of the Sea Clan slaves on Galo Island.
Among the Sea Clan slaves who watched Old Porter's figure, some people naturally saw the identity of the Terran youth on Old Porter's shoulders.
The special gray hair and rare racial face of the Terran youth reminded the slaves of the huge wanted portrait affixed to the stone door for the first time.
The slaves looked at Old Porter's lonely and struggling figure, and did not make a fuss, did not step forward to dissuade him, nor did they snatch the Terran youth and present them to the hands of the overseers, and in their tired and cloudy eyes, there was only indifference and a little pity.
They knew that Old Porter's trip was basically a life of nine deaths.
