Brother Jue's immoral behavior did not last long, because the ghost pirate quickly stopped him out of patience and gave up the idea of "listening to music".
After the sound of string picking and singing stopped, Ruoyu came back from the next room on her own. She looked at Brother Jue with disgust and said, "Are you crazy enough?"
"Ha...that's almost it..." Feng Bujue replied with a smile.
"Well... being able to use this method to make NPCs withdraw requests that have been made... is also an ability." Xiao Tan commented.
"Okay, boy, I understand my talent in music..." The ghost pirate said to Brother Jue at this time, "It was my fault, I shouldn't have mentioned the word music in front of you..."
He paused for a few seconds, then filled himself up with another glass of wine, "You might as well tell a joke or something. You'll be fine with this, right?"
"I deeply doubt this..." Ruoyu raised his eyes and vomited at the right time.
Feng Bujue ignored his teammates' sarcasm, looked at the ghost pirate and asked, "Yes, yes, but what benefits can I get?" He felt that it was almost time to put forward conditions.
"Huh? What do you want?" asked the ghost pirate.
"That's not the point. The point is...what can you give me?" Feng Bujue answered.
"Well, you're right." The ghost pirate picked up the wine glass, "I can give you..." He hesitated for a moment and took a sip of wine, "...a key."
"What else?" Feng Bujue asked again.
"No more." The ghost pirate replied rudely, "If you insist on asking for something, I can give you a few slaps in the face. What do you think?"
"That's it..." Feng Bujue muttered casually, thinking in his mind: Should I take out the Diamond Bell and see if there is any residual value in this NPC that can be exploited?
After thinking about it for a few seconds, he gave up the idea. It felt like... it would be a waste to use the special effects of the Diamond Bell here.
"Mr. Pirate, do you know the king?" After a few seconds, Brother Jue suddenly changed the topic. It seemed that he had already started telling his "joke".
"Of course I do." The ghost pirate replied, "George II, His Majesty the Great King." His expression became very subtle, and there was a bit of bitterness in his tone, "It was his fleet that... destroyed my ship.
, killed my gang of brats and stole my treasure..." As he said this, his transparent body became flickering. His eyes became more and more weird, "Haha...
I seem to have remembered..." He put down his wine glass and looked up at Brother Jue, "I'm already dead, right?"
"Yes." Feng Bujue said bluntly.
"Ah... no wonder I don't feel anything after drinking this wine." The ghost pirate thought.
"Since you know the king and have such a grudge with him, it will be easy to handle." Feng Bujue continued what he just said, "Let's talk about George II."
"What? Do you want to make a 'King Joke'?" Ghost Pirate continued, "I don't think I would be amused by that."
Feng Bujue ignored the other party and continued talking to himself: "For most kings, it may be a kind of luck to die suddenly in an unexpected situation. This is better than being killed by the enemy.
It is much more honorable to be killed by relatives or servants. You don't have to suffer from long-term illness, let alone worry about your temperament changing due to old age, and you will not be able to survive in your later years."
"What exactly do you want to say?" the ghost pirate said.
"However, sometimes some strange situations happen, causing them to lose this 'dignity' before their death." Feng Bujue continued, "In the early morning of October 25, 1760, King George II, who had been suffering from constipation for a long time,
"He died suddenly due to the rupture of a dissecting aneurysm due to excessive force during defecation." He spread his hands and said, "This unfortunate King of the British Empire died on the toilet."
When he finished speaking, there was silence in the room.
A few seconds later...
"Hahahaha..." The ghost pirate burst into uncontrollable laughter, "This... hahaha... this is the most ridiculous... hahahaha... joke I have ever heard... hahaha... haha
Ha ha……"
"Actually, what I said is the truth." Feng Bujue added with an expression on his face.
"Pfft, haha, haha..." The ghost pirate laughed wildly again, "I can't do it anymore... hahaha... I'm going to die... hahahahaha..." He laughed so hard that it felt like his lungs were going to explode.
After a while, the guy regained his breath a little, but he still couldn't stop the smile on his face: "Ah... it feels so good." He took out a key from his arms and put it on his face.
On the table, "Take it, boy."
The moment the key came off the fingertips of the ghost pirate, it turned from virtual reality, from a translucent shadow into a tangible object.
But the pirate himself became more and more transparent after handing over the key, until he completely disappeared...
At the last moment, his face still had the unscrupulous smile that a villain should have.
[The current task has been completed]
When the system prompt sounded, the three items, the bottle, the glass, and the violin, all turned into white light and disappeared.
Feng Bujue immediately took two steps forward and picked up the key left by the pirate.
[Name: Pirate’s Golden Key]
[Type: Consumables]
[Quality: Ordinary]
[Function: Open pirate treasure chest]
[Can the script be brought out: No]
[Note: The owner of this key obviously liked gold and silver. Unfortunately, he was buried in the vast sea before he could enjoy the plundered wealth. 】
Brother Jue quickly displayed the item description in front of his teammates.
About ten seconds later, Buu was the first to say: "Isn't this right? If this key is used to open a certain 'treasure box', then..." He pointed to the unopened box in room a.
Door, "...how should I open that door?"
Click——
A soft sound answered his question.
Just as everyone was checking the item description, the door... was opened by someone (maybe a person, maybe not) from the other side...
Although it was only two short seconds, in those two seconds, all six players saw clearly - a pale hand with long fingers and red nails was holding on the door frame.
When the door was opened to a palm's width, the hand retracted into the darkness behind the door...
"Jue, uh, uh, jue... Brother Jue..." Xiaotan's chin trembled and she spat out, "You, you, you... look, look... come..."
"I saw it..." Feng Bujue replied weakly, "It's strange that I can't see it." As he spoke, he had put the [Pirate's Golden Key] in his pocket and strode towards the door.
After passing by, "At this kind of moment, don't hesitate because of fear, catch up as soon as possible, maybe you will get unexpected results."
"Well... As expected of Mr. Jue, his analysis of problems is so profound..." Buu looked at Brother Jue and read this sentence again.
"Well... As expected of Teacher Jue, he is just a little braver than the average person..." Uub also answered.
This time, their praise was on point. If Feng Bujue had any ability that ordinary people couldn't reach, it would undoubtedly be that he was fearless.
"Hey, this room seems quite spacious." On the other side, Feng Bujue had already arrived at the door, turned on the search light in front of the catapult, and pushed the door open. "Then... let's name this room '
Let’s go to room c’.”
The "room c" mentioned by Brother Jue is larger than the previous room a and room b combined. According to his visual inspection... it should be more than 100 square meters. The room is generally rectangular, and the floor and walls are also made of wood. However,
There are much more furnishings in the room than the first two...
After entering the door, Feng Bujue first took a rough look with a search light and observed the size and layout of the space. Then, he began to make more detailed observations...
"There is a lot of furniture in this room..." Brother Jue said while holding up the lamp to observe, "the couch, the coffee table... well... there is also a TV on the coffee table (CrT TV, the so-called old-fashioned TV)
.”
While he was chanting, the other five people also turned on the lighting equipment and followed in one after another.
"Let me take a look...a closet, a low cabinet, two standing lamps..." Feng Bujue read out whatever he saw, with a very relaxed tone, "a withered bonsai, a piano, a collapsed bookshelf,
And...Eh?" He seemed to have seen something, and then he laughed out loud, "Haha...there is another corpse here." (To be continued...)
