Gawain smiled and nodded to Nuo Qigao, and the little girl suddenly beamed. She stretched out her slender wrist and gave Gawain a false hint.
Then, she carried Nami alive and walked all the way towards Bellmere's house.
In the house, Ajian did not think that Nami and Nokigao would encounter any danger.
It's not that he is big-hearted, but that there is an extremely simple logic in their world.
The logic is that if a bad visitor comes to the door, no one will ring the doorbell...
Yes, this logic is basically not applicable in reality. There is no shortage of smiling tigers in the real world.
In other words, even if it is not a smiling tiger, in reality there is still a saying of courtesy first and then fighting.
However, in the world of pirates, the guest who rings the doorbell of an ordinary civilian will never be a pirate or navy, or even some other noble.
Therefore, Ajian could only assume that other well-informed villagers came to his door.
So, when Nokigao took Gawain back to the house, Ajian was still there holding a teacup and smiling to welcome him.
result…….
Jian, who was holding the tea cup, noticed at first glance that this guest actually had to bend down slightly to walk in from the door of the house!
Gawain was lucky, he bent down and came in, but with a smile, even if he barely squeezed in, he could only smile bitterly and sit directly on the ground aside...
The appearance of these two people really frightened Ajian to the point of raising two Buddhas to heaven. Compared with girls, he lacked the key step of good looks, and he recognized Gao Wen's identity at a glance!
After all, just a few hours ago, Jian was holding Gawain's newspaper and was in a state of distress!
So Ajian knelt down on the spot...
Looking at Ah Jian who was kneeling there in fear, Gawain waved his hand naturally.
"Ah Jian, right? I know you, the village policeman of Cocosia Village.
Although you were unable to save your villagers, you... really tried your best."
Having said this, Gawain's eyes fell on Ajian's face covered with scars.
Ajian's face at this time looks like an evil ghost that has been patched together!
Scars like this don't just appear on the face. On Ah Jian, there is almost no good flesh larger than three square centimeters.
Just from these scars, you can see how much torture Ajian has suffered.
It can be said that if he is still alive, it is simply God's favor.
On the side, noticing the look in Gawain's eyes, Ajian took a deep breath.
"I, I, I..."
He stammered and muttered for a long time before he managed to pull himself together and spoke to Gawain.
"Sir Tianlong, I am the only one who speaks ill of you behind your back. These two children have nothing to do with them. They like you very much!
Even if you make them slaves, please don't kill them. They can do many things and they are very useful!
If you want to die, just die to me..."
"Ahem!"
Gawain coughed slightly, interrupting Ajian's words. Beside Gawain, Nokigao held Nami and said to Ajian with a smile.
"Uncle Jian, Lord Gawain has interrupted you, so you'd better be wise and stand up quickly.
Lord Gawain is not the kind of Celestial Dragon you mentioned. Your Lord is here to buy an orange tree, and I want to treat you to tea~.
Hey, please look after Nami for me. Don't let this child say anything crazy. I'll go to the kitchen.
Lord Gawain, wait for me for a moment, I will make tea~"
While talking, Noqigao put Nami into Ajian's arms, then turned to the kitchen and prepared the ingredients energetically.
As soon as Nokigao left, Nami immediately became energetic.
She got rid of Ajian's control very easily, and then she escaped to the side, her little eyes kept turning on Gawain.
Jian didn't have time to pay attention to Nami's little eyes. He was still kneeling on the ground at this time, his whole body was trembling, and he didn't pay attention to what Gawain said at all.
There are too many people in this sea who have never seen the Celestial Dragons. When they really see Gawain, most of them will think...the Celestial Dragons are nothing more than that.
Some people may even think that the Celestial Dragons all look like Gawain because of their first impression of seeing Gawain.
Just like Nokigao and Nami at this time, after they felt Gawain's kindness, they easily let down their guard.
Because this was the first time they had seen the Celestial Dragon in their lives, after they had their first impression of Gawain, they inevitably felt that the legendary stories in the past were all so-called hearsay.
On the contrary, if a group of navy or pirates came to them, they would not have a good first impression of the navy or pirates.
Because they have seen too many evil navy and pirates...
And unlike Nokigao and Nami, Ajian is someone who has actually seen the Tianlong people!
Although the scars on his body were not left by the Celestial Dragons, the deaths of his children in the past were all caused by the Celestial Dragons.
Faced with the kind words from Gawain's mouth, can Ah Jian dare to believe him?
Jian, who has had similar contacts, always feels that his family has become some kind of toys for Gawain!
And Gawain’s gentle smiling faces are just props to make the game more interesting!
For a moment, Jian didn't know what to say. According to his experience, is begging for mercy useful?
If they beg for mercy, can the Celestial Dragons be spared?
But if they don't beg for mercy, the Tianlong people will still kill them, right?
Just like that, Jian was completely desperate. He knelt there and pulled Nami, completely losing the strength to speak.
breathe.
Ajian's breathing became more and more rapid, and it seemed that he could die on the spot without even needing Gawain to speak...
Seeing Ajian's increasingly nervous look, Gawain frowned. He seemed to have frightened this man...
So he came to Ajian and gently helped him up.
"Ajian, let's sit down and talk. It seems like this is not the first time you've seen someone like me.
For the common people in this sea, most of the Celestial Dragons exist in stories. People's impression of us is that they only need to pay us gold from the sky.
But the impression of just paying money shouldn’t make you afraid like this, right?”
"I……."
Facing Gawain's gentle words, Ajian's body began to tremble violently. He stood there tremblingly and spoke to Gawain with difficulty.
"When I was seven years old... I saw... no, it was a welcome. I was lucky enough to welcome Lord Tianlong to visit!!!"
At this point, Ajian could no longer hold back his tears, and the poor old man burst into tears on the spot.
On the side, after listening to Ajian's explanation, Gawain was silent for a moment, and then let out a long breath.
"Sure enough, hey... It seems that my trash brethren brought you a lot of pain back then..."
Having said this, Gawain took out the wine gourd from his waist and handed the gourd to Ajian's hand.
"I know that you, who have seen the damn appearance of the Tianlong people with your own eyes, will not easily believe that I am a good person.
As for me, I can't make you let go of your wariness about me with a few superficial words.
Anyway, on behalf of my compatriots back then, I would like to sincerely apologize to you.
For now, have a drink, maybe that will make you feel better."
Having said this, Gawain thought for a moment, and then he hugged Ajian gently.
When Gawain let go of A-Jian, A-Jian was already bursting into tears.
He stood there trembling, looking at the wine bottle in front of him with indescribable eyes.
I saw him opening the wine gourd and taking a big sip. When the wine was gone, Ajian looked at Gawain while holding the wine gourd.
As he watched, Jian's tears gradually stopped, and he sighed deeply.
"Why... the Tianlong who passed by Cocosia Village back then... wasn't you?"
After saying that, Ajian fell down on the chair beside him and didn't want to say anything anymore.
He knew that the Celestial Dragon in front of him was still very young, and that the suffering he suffered back then was indeed caused by the Celestial Dragon. The Celestial Dragon was just a name for a group.
And in the group, there will always be individuals.
Therefore, he couldn't blame the young man in front of him for what happened back then...
Then who should he resent? He didn't even know the name of the Tianlong man back then, or even if he knew it, he wouldn't be able to do anything...
Just like that, Jian was completely silent. He didn't want to say anything anymore, not even the issues he wanted to discuss with Nokigao and Nami before.
What to say, it’s meaningless.
Because what he wants to talk about is, isn't it the question of how we should run when the Tianlong people are coming?
But the Tianlong people have already arrived, so we can only leave it to fate...
On the side, looking at Jian's lifeless look, little Nami patted Jian on the shoulder angrily.
"Hey, Jian, you're not so scared, are you?
That guy is not a ghost, nor a damn navy, nor an even damned fish-man pirate?
Why can such a gentle person make you look like you are now, wishing you could die on the spot?"
As she spoke, Nami showed a look of disdain. A cutie like her, who has been involved in society since she was ten years old, has already developed the ability to talk to people and tell ghosts.
She has long been accustomed to observing the world with her own eyes!
From a simple contact, Nami already knew that Gawain was the kind of character who would not go out of his way to offend you if you didn't mess with him, or if you didn't offend him.
External tenderness may be disguised, but the details of life cannot be disguised. Compared with the stories she has heard, Nami believes in her own eyes more!
So, after criticizing Jian, Nami immediately went aside and took the largest chair and a blanket in the room.
After handing the chair to Gawain, Nami approached Yixiao with a smile.
"This uncle always closes his eyes, can't you see?
So strong, even if you can't see it, you can still act like a normal person!
But even if it's very strong, don't just sit on the ground, you'll catch a cold.
Hey, this is a blanket, uncle, take it and put it under your butt~"
While talking, Nami diligently helped Yixiao lay out the blanket. Seeing this, Yixiao accepted Nami's kindness with a smile.
In fact, Yixiao's movements toward Nami were full of appreciation and care.
This is a simple country boy. Not only is he more caring than a brat like Ace, he is also warm-hearted!
But just when Yixiao made such a comment, Nami suddenly stood aside and stretched out her right hand to Yixiao.
"Of course, uncle, if someone's blanket gets dirty from sitting on it, it needs to be cleaned too.
Therefore, I sincerely offer you 100,000 yuan in cleaning fees~”
"Why?!!"
I couldn't help but smile. Is this... is this the enthusiastic country person I just thought he was?
If all rural people look like this, then...
"Ahem!"
Before he could disperse his thoughts with a smile, Gawain coughed twice, interrupting Nami's words.
He stretched out a finger, and suddenly there was thunder lingering on that finger.
A moment later, with the operation of thunder and magnetic field, the two gold ornaments on Gawain quietly melted into gold water and floated around Gawain's fingers.
With Gawain's control, the golden water quickly formed the shape of an orange tree.
On the side, Nami, who witnessed everything, was first shocked, then horrified, and then she was so happy that she couldn't help herself!
Because Gawain was not angry, but made a small orange tree made of gold!
Sure enough, in Nami's expectant eyes, Gawain sent the golden orange tree to Nami.
"Don't talk to us about tens of thousands of Baileys, Nami, because that's too vulgar.
In other words, do you think the wealth of the Celestial Dragons can be measured by money like tens of thousands of beli that you don’t even bother to pick up if it falls on the ground?”
Having said this, Gawain looked at Nami's eyes that gradually widened in amusement.
Facing the shocked Nami, Gawain continued.
"Do you know that the Black Bird is my ship? It cost me more than 1.7 trillion beli to build that ship!
This is just the construction cost, including the continuous renovation of the ship and the creation of facilities and decorations on the ship.
Two trillion is not enough to measure the value of that ship."
"Two by two...two trillion trillion billion!!!!!"
Opposite me, Nami's mouth widened to look like she was swallowing fruit. She covered her heart and almost fainted!
However, Gawain didn't stop at this moment. Gawain pointed at Yixiao who was sitting on the blanket and said.
"Furthermore, do you know what the annual salaries of the officers on my ship are?
Yixiao, please introduce our salary to Nami."
"Um."
He smiled and nodded in a funny way. He could see that the adult was very interested in this girl named Nami.
Although I don’t know why, it’s enough that the adults are interested. The adults are not bullying men and dominating women. It’s a matter of mutual consent, right?
Besides, with your status as an adult, Yixiao wishes he could find more women and have a large litter of children as soon as possible.
At that time, even if the adult's body suffers from a disease like Roger's, he can still choose the most suitable one from the adult's large group of children to continue to help!
In short, the smile at this moment showed a smile full of affection to Nami, the little girl who had caught Qian's eye.
Then, Yixiao said softly.
"Ah, the annual salary our Lord gives us is actually a little too little.
Our group of people only have 500 million per month, which is equivalent to an annual salary of 6 billion beli.
Haha, it's really too little. It's just one and a half Shanks.
Little girl Nami, you must not laugh at me."
After saying that, Yixiao listened to Nami's reaction with interest. When he thought about it, Nami should be extremely envious at this moment, and then asked excitedly about the qualifications to join the Black Bird, right?
However, everything did not develop as Yixiao thought. Opposite him, Nami was stunned for a moment, and then she became silent.
At this time, Nami lowered her head and hid her eyes behind the shadows. She looked at her badly worn sandals and her feet that were stained with dust, but could not say anything.
On the side, Gawain thought of something, so he looked at Nami worriedly.
At this moment, Nami looked extremely sad and said to Yixiao.
"Six billion Baileys a year, is this just the basic annual salary..."
However, our entire Cocosia Island is only worth 100 million Baileys in Aaron's mouth...
I have tried my best to raise just 100 million beli. I have worked hard for five years but I still haven’t collected half of it.
If there is only 100 million Baileys for you, my village can be out of the sea of misery!!!"
Having said this, Nami raised her head sharply, a flame burning in her eyes.
I saw her looking at Gawain first with a smile, then looking at Gawain, she was trembling and said in pain.
"What exactly is it, something that you can easily possess...
What if it becomes something we can never desire?”
