When a man is about to die, his words are good, and when a bird is dying, his song is also mourning. [Ran^Text^Library] []

In this short moment of eye exchange, Tang Jie clearly saw the goodwill blessing of the return of humanity before Lao Barr's death.

This look touched him too much, and he suddenly remembered the bits and pieces of his time with Baal when he came into this world, and thought of the old man who spared no effort to teach him and teach him unselfishly.

Tang Jie was immediately moved!

He watched Barr fall by his side little by little, and his hand unconsciously reached out to grab him to save him, but Barr's hand deliberately dodged.

The former king of the Ataq seas stepped off his stage in the most undignified way, and before stepping down, he lost everything.

His glory, his dreams, his partners, his relatives, when he lost nothing, the only thing he could do was to try to ensure that he was as proud as possible at the moment of his final death.

That wasn't enough to forgive him for the damage he had done to Nia and them!

Tang Jie watched in a daze as Old Barr fell into the abyss like a meteor, swallowed by a thick darkness, and gradually disappeared.

After a while, Lilith, who had been thrown into the corridor by William, woke up, and the confused girl had no idea what kind of tragicomedy had just been played out here.

She just ran to the edge of the cliff and pulled Nia up, who turned around and pulled William and Bill up.

Then several of them teamed up with their clothes and pulled Tang Jie up.

After Tang Jie climbed the cliff, he knelt on the edge of the cliff, staring blankly at the bottomless abyss, his eyes were extremely complicated.

Suddenly, he shouted, "Barr!!"

"Bal, Bal, Bal, Bal, Bal......"

Tang Jie's shouts echoed in the huge stone cave, spreading from the top of the cave to the abyss, weakening little by little, as if following Baal away.

Nia and William looked at Tang Jie blankly, no one could understand what kind of feelings Tang Jie contained in this shout.

Is it anger, is it resentment, is it sadness, is it helpless?

Tang Jie didn't know it himself, and it wasn't until he felt a gentle hand gently on his shoulder that he slowly turned around.

Nia looked at Tang Jie stupidly, at the only man she had left in this world that she could rely on.

Tang Jie looked at Nia's sad eyes and looked at her sad and sad face, Tang Jie let out a long sigh, stretched out his hand lovingly, and gently stroked her cheek: "If you want to cry, just cry." ”

Tang Jie knew that Nia had been hurt more than anyone here.

Their betrayal by Barr is certainly infuriating. But now that Barr has lost his life, they have survived and become winners instead, and they have almost nothing to lose except for their feelings for Barr.

But what about Nia?

She's the only one here who has gained everything and lost everything.

No matter how much she hated Barr's betrayal and resent Barr's abandonment, she could never get rid of one thing: she was Barr's daughter after all.

When Nia heard Tang Jie's words, her heart that was as hard as iron was suddenly as fragile as a glass heart, and it was all shattered in an instant.

She threw herself into Tang Jie's arms and cried loudly.

Lilith stood beside them, blinking, she didn't understand what was going on, but she could hear a heartache in Nia's grief-stricken cry.

William and Bill, two of the most die-hard Barr supporters, sat on the edge of the cliff in a daze, their eyes into the abyss, not saying a word, and no one knew what they were thinking.

I don't know how long it took, Nia was tired of crying, and fell asleep in Tang Jie's arms.

Tang Jie sighed and hugged Nia: "Let's go, let's go out ......"

William, Lilith, and Bill stood up and walked out along the cave.

When Tang Jie's figure was about to fall into darkness, he turned around, and took one last look at the stone cave behind him that had turned into an abyss, he shook his head with great emotion, and then turned around, and his body disappeared into the thick inky darkness.

The group stumbled out of the corridor and came to a huge grotto outside that was connected to the sea.

I saw the sound of the waves of the sea, and one after another lang flowers were swept to the shore by the sea, slapped on the messy pile of rocks, and splashed into countless broken flowers and jade. In this seaside grotto, the huge Black Dragon King moved out of his original position due to the violent tremor of the shipwreck island just now, knocking over some rocks next to it.

Bill, who had been a lookout at sea for many years, had piercing eyes and could see at a glance a tawny wooden box exposed from the pile of rocks.

"Look, what's that?" he shouted sharply, stabbing Tang Jie and William with a shock in their hearts!

William and Bill glanced at each other, and a frenzied gaze suddenly flashed in their eyes, and they rushed over.

They didn't know where they got their strength, so they used their hands and feet to dig out this wooden box about one meter long, half a meter high, and half a meter wide.

"It's heavy......" Bill shouted with grinned teeth.

Although William is blind in one eye, there is a yearning and fanaticism for wealth in his other eye.

He gasped and looked at Bill, "You say, what could be in there?"

Bill grinned, "It's going to be a box of gold coins!"

William and Bill walked towards Tang Jie together, he carried the box, he was tired and panting, bent over and said, "If you want me to say, it's a case of rum." ”

Bill's voice rose an octave: "Are you sick? Do you think Athos is a rat-eyed, drunken idiot like you?"

William rolled his eyes, gasped, and put the box in front of Tang Jie: "Tang Jie, you come to be a notary, see who guesses right, me or Bill! By the way, what do you guess here?"

"Huh?" Tang Jie was still immersed in the thousands of emotions of Baal's death at this time, he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes fell on the rusty iron edge in front of him, and the color was a little dark.

This, is this the treasure of the Pirate King Athos?

This is the treasure that drives everyone in the world crazy?

What's in it?

Even if Tang Jie no longer loves money, he can't help but have endless curiosity in his heart.

He smiled faintly and said to William and Bill, "Okay, I'll be a witness for you! If I had to guess, I guess there would be gems inside!"

William and Bill were overjoyed, each spat in the palm of their hand, and then grabbed the lid of the wooden box and lifted it hard!

Suddenly, a colorful light shot out of the box, which dazzled Tang Jie for a while, and he couldn't breathe!

This box is divided into three compartments: left, middle and right.

The left grid contains a variety of gemstones of various colors, such as beeswax, jadeite, agate, opal, spinel, sapphire, and green jade.

Any one of these gems is enough to buy a modified three-masted griffon-class battleship that Tang Jie bought in Sisis, and if you take out all the gems here, you can build a top-notch fleet overnight!

The middle compartment was empty, except for a pale white glove at the bottom of the chest.

The one on the right is even more empty, with only a piece of curly felt cloth inside.

William and Bill glanced at the empty middle and right squares, and then automatically ignored these two places, just staring blankly at the incomparably tempting gems in the chest, unable to utter a word.

Tang Jie looked at their appearance and secretly laughed.

He thought they were shocked by the staggering number of gems, or stunned by his accurate guesses.

If it weren't for the opal used to pay the bill when Barr and I went to buy a boat, how would I have guessed that it was all gems?

Tang Jie smiled and was about to speak, but saw Bill and William screaming at the same time.

Bill held his head and screamed, "Where's my gold?"

William held his head and screamed, "Where's the rum, where is my rum?"

The corners of Tang Jie's eyes twitched.

These two hopelessly idiots!!

"Don't you know how much gold you can exchange for a gem here, and how much rum you can buy?" Tang Jie looked at them with a smile and a smile.

Bill retorted unceremoniously: "But Captain Tang Jie, these gems are not currency in circulation, and sometimes they are not as good as gold coins!"

Tang Jie's heart was shocked!

Yes, if only one or two of these gemstones are used, then it is fine, but if they are used in large quantities, they will attract people's attention and cause a serious impact on the gemstone market.

If half of these gems are circulated, the price of gemstones on the market will soon plummet with the price of jumping off the building!

I'm afraid that these leftover gems will become valuable garbage at that time, and the gains outweigh the losses!

Tang Jie muttered, "What you said makes sense, Bill, I underestimated you!"

Bilton was very proud, shook his head and said: "That's it! I think I once got a sapphire two years ago, and when I was prostituting a woman in the kiln to pay the bill, that stinky woman with no long eyes insisted that my gem was fake, so that I put my pants there! Since then, I have known that gems are far less useful than gold coins!"

Tang Jie: "......"
