The bright moon is in the sky, shining like silver moonlight in the small courtyard of the "Flower Bear Restaurant".
The wine table was still in a mess, and on the bluestone floor beside the table lay a drunk man and a bear.
"what's going on..."
Raymond struggled to wake up. He rubbed his temples, as if they were broken after a hangover, and he had a faint headache.
The moment he woke up, he immediately felt that something was wrong. He was of vampire blood. Logically speaking, alcohol could not paralyze him. How could he be so drunk?
Snoring...
And next to him, at this moment, a fat panda was sleeping soundly on its back and snoring. No wonder it felt so warm just now. It turned out that it was because it was sleeping on the fat cat's plush belly.
After looking through the system prompts, Raymond finally understood the reason, and some memories flashed intermittently.
[Ding! You drank the ‘Mountain Treasure Monkey Wine’, the upper limit of your true energy is 222, and your meridians are unblocked 1...]
[Ding! You are too drunk and dizzy...]
"That old man's wine is weird!"
Raymond finally understood something. What he had been drinking before was the rum he brought, but after drinking several large barrels of wine, the "third uncle" also took off the gourd from his waist and poured some wine into it.
Rich fruit wine to drink...
"That gourd is also weird!"
At that time, Raymond was drunk and didn't notice anything strange, but he came back to his senses now.
When they were happy after drinking in the afternoon, he, Fat Cat and the old man were the only ones on the table. The three of them drank tons of rum, and the gourd that was more than a foot high would not be enough.
Drinks for three people.
But he drank one glass after another of fruit wine, and he actually got himself drunk...
"Drinking will ruin my life!"
The master is missing!
Raymond turned around and saw that he and the drunken fat cat were the only ones left in the yard. The mysterious master "Third Uncle" had long since disappeared.
This kind of hidden figure is invisible but never seen. This encounter is a great opportunity. I don’t know if I want to meet him next time.
Suddenly, he slapped his thigh fiercely and felt that he had missed hundreds of millions.
"What a huge loss! I just drank and didn't come up with anything. Magical skills, magic weapons, amazing treasures... A big shot of that level can pluck out leg hair and benefit a lot.
Why the hell did I just drink?"
But then I think about it,
Raymond pursed his lips again, "Huh... But it's our first meeting. It would be nice if a senior like you could condescend to have a drink with you. What else do you need a bicycle..."
Thinking of the rice wine that made him drunk, Raymond suddenly felt that he had caught something, and a thought flashed in his mind.
"No matter how expensive the rum is, it can't be compared to the 'Monkey Wine' that can increase attributes... The old man was afraid that he was embarrassed to take advantage of a junior, so he took out the 'Monkey Wine'. So...
When I think about it, it seems that this old man is also a kind-hearted person who doesn't owe any favors. But if I missed it this time, how can I meet him again next time?"
Hiss~
Before the drunkenness faded away, the more Raymond thought about it, the more his head hurt. This was the first time he felt so sleepy since he awakened to the extraordinary. Anyway, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't change the fact that his "third uncle" was missing.
, he simply lay on the fat cat's soft belly again and fell asleep with his head covered.
Sweet dreams are endless.
...
A few days passed, and Helen's matter seemed to have not been settled yet, and she still did not show up. The matter she promised to Raymond had not yet been settled, and the crew of the "Ghost Pirates" settled in the city with peace of mind.
Lulu has been visiting the pure-haired "witch doctors" in Blue Bird City in various places these days. He wants to understand the principle of the legendary "witchcraft treatment". This pricked a certain pure-haired witch in the head.
The medical elder has never left his house...
Anna was wandering around the city, buying beautiful clothes and accessories, recording some local customs and customs in the Pure Mao Tribe territory, and writing a navigation log. This is a required course for navigators. She wants to compile a book after arriving at the end of the world.
A complete "Ghost Crew's Voyage Adventure Log"...
Mechanical engineer Colin was also very curious about the masonry and tile buildings in the city. He was very curious about how the craftsmen of the Pure Mao tribe completed the construction of this magnificent city without the assistance of large steel equipment. This opportunity is rare.
, he didn’t take him with him in the laboratory, and went to the homes of pure-haired tribesmen who were building new houses in the city to help build houses...
Gradually,
The pure-hair tribe in Blue Bird City are also familiar with these human friends brought back by Master Helen. They also realize that it seems that humans are not all evil pirates, but also have kind friends...
Raymond is the only idle member of the "ghost group".
In addition to practicing every day, his task is to spend time in the "Flower Bear Restaurant" chatting with the fat cat to increase his sense of presence. He wants to recruit this silly giant panda to work as a cook on the ship, and he still has a lot of favorability to increase.
And he also wanted to wait in the restaurant, waiting for the mysterious "third uncle" to come again.
However, Raymond also knew that they could not stay in Jade Bird City forever.
Just waiting like this is obviously not an option.
Therefore, he planned to take the initiative.
The two gradually got to know each other, and Raymond also learned from Fat Mao about his third uncle's three major hobbies: obscenity, gluttony, and drinking!
The best wine I could get was "gold rum", and now I've finished it and there's no where to buy it. Besides, that kind of wine is something that the old man hasn't had for a long time to satisfy his craving, so he probably can't get enough of it.
His discernment.
And he couldn't get enough of "obscene". The pure-haired people only like beauties with fur, and the same goes for "Third Uncle". The fair-skinned and beautiful Miss Anna, in the eyes of these ignorant guys, is actually "very ugly"
"That block.
If the old man hadn't been so "greedy", Raymond would have almost listened to Sha Mao's suggestion and went to the women's bathhouse in the city to stay with that bad old man...
For a fighting nation like the Pure Mao Tribe, even sea kings were their daily food. Ordinary ingredients could not attract the old man at all.
Moreover, with a high-level chef like Sha Mao, "Third Uncle" probably has a very good taste. Delicacies from mountains and seas may not necessarily be able to satisfy his taste.
Although Raymond couldn't get hold of other top ingredients in the sea, there happened to be a very fresh preserved lava fire dragon corpse in his package.
And coincidentally, the [God Sacrifice Recipe] also recorded a famous dish [Charcoal Grilled Dragon Meat].
No matter where they are, dragons are rare creatures, and dragon meat is a top-notch ingredient no matter what level it is.
On this day...
"Flower Bear Restaurant" became lively.
The body of the lava dragon was several hundred meters long and could not be placed in the courtyard of the restaurant, so Raymond had no choice but to place it on the street in front of the restaurant. This release immediately attracted a crowd of people to watch. The people in Blue Bird City
Although the pure fur people are used to seeing various sea beasts and sea kings, almost all of them have never seen a real giant dragon, let alone eaten dragon meat.
These days, everyone in their "ghost group" has been warmly entertained by the Pure Mao people in Jade Bird City. Thinking that he should return the favor, Raymond invited his neighbors to eat barbecued dragon meat skewers. The Pure Mao people have simple folk customs.
They were also warm and hospitable. After they were invited, they brought their own pots, pans and some ingredients and joined in the cooking process. The originally planned small-scale skewers party turned into a big party with tables spread out along a long street.
The dragon's leather was very tough, but it was quickly skinned, cramped, and deboned under Fat Cat's sharp kitchen knife... Raymond left behind those useful materials, and then the lava dragon was divided into
Countless chunks of firm red meat, hundreds of tons in total.
Charcoal fire, spices, dragon meat skewers, fruit wine...
Under Sha Mao's exquisite cooking skills, the dragon meat skewers were grilled until they were charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma was oily... A rich aroma that was different from other barbecues spread to several streets away...
Sure enough,
This dragon meat feast, which caused a sensation in the entire Jade Bird City, successfully attracted the greedy old man "Third Uncle".
...
"Oh, third uncle, are you here?"
Everyone in Jade Bird City called the old man Third Uncle, and Raymond shamelessly followed suit.
He had been looking forward to it for a long time, always watching to see if there was a shiny bald head in the crowd. No, as soon as he saw the wretched old man showing up, he quickly detoured to the kitchen and brought out the hidden goodies.
"Third uncle, come and try...the 'chopped pepper borneol' specially reserved for you, try it to see if it suits your taste..."
Raymond had a silly smile on his face, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt a little flattering.
"Hey, I'm interested."
The old man was not polite and started to move the tableware directly, "This tastes good and quite fresh."
As he spoke, he took off the gourd from his waist, poured two bowls of dark wine, and said, "Eat your dragon meat, and you also have a taste of my new wine."
The meaning of this move is very obvious. I will exchange these bowls of wine for you some bites of meat.
Not taking advantage of you.
"Third uncle, isn't this wine intoxicating?"
"What's the point of drinking wine that's not intoxicating?"
"..."
The last time he drank, he missed something. This time, Raymond had a better memory and directly threw out the "Eye of True Seeing."
【Five Poison Wine】
The upper limit of Chi value is 50
Qi recovery is 10%, lasting 30 minutes;
Relaxing muscles and activating blood circulation 2
Poison Resistance 2
Detailed explanation: The poisonous wine brewed by the secret method of the pure Mao tribe is the best among wines; if you drink it many times, the effectiveness will decrease; if you drink it for a long time, you will have super high toxin resistance;
Sure enough, it is another special wine.
Although it was a good thing, on normal days, he would definitely drink it freely, but at this moment, Raymond did not dare to drink too much. If he got drunk again, the next time he had dragon meat, he might not be able to attract the old man.
He just drank sip after sip, and from time to time helped the old man get the meat skewers and add vegetables, and the service was warm and thoughtful.
Raymond knew that although the old man looked like a confused and bad old man, he actually didn't understand anything in his heart. He knew that no matter how good he was at hiding it, the old man would definitely know his motives, so he simply didn't hide them, and directly
So he asked.
"Third Uncle, you are so noble this year, why do everyone call you Third Uncle?"
"Age? I can't even remember..."
"Third uncle, are you a martial arts master?"
"no."
"..."
"But I heard from Shitou that the 'water floating' skill you taught him..."
"This is definitely not what that little guy Shitou said..."
"..."
"Third uncle, it is said that the pure Mao tribe's secret "Qigong" has its own sect. What is it?"
"It's just some Qi movement techniques..."
"Third uncle... I have also learned some rudimentary swordsmanship. Would you like to comment?"
"Well...your swordsmanship is indeed quite crude."
"..."
Raymond just kept chatting with the old man. This naughty old man was not as easy to fool as a fat cat. No matter he brought the topic to martial arts, this old man just looked like he didn't like to talk...
Obviously, the third uncle was not very interested in giving "advice" to Raymond, an outsider who was not a pure Mao tribe.
This made Raymond feel helpless that the treasure mountain was right in front of him and he couldn't get started.
...
The sky is getting dark, and rows of red lanterns are lit up in the streets and alleys. The dinner is still going on... These simple pure-haired people are eating, drinking, singing and dancing... It's a joyful and festive atmosphere
atmosphere.
Even though Raymond deliberately controlled it, he still felt slightly tipsy while drinking.
I don't know when, but I suddenly heard a young female voice in my ear.
"Third uncle..."
Raymond turned around and saw a fat bird girl with beautiful blue feathers standing at the edge of the table. Naturally, it was Helen Fourrea.
She shouted at the old man and said with a resentful look on her face: "Third uncle... I have been looking for you for several days. Why do you always avoid me?"
Helen, who was two or three years old, was not as high as a stool. Raymond thought, so he picked her up and sat next to him. She should be closer to him, so that she could be protected with one hand, so that she would not have to hold the tableware.
An unstable boss will fall down and it won't look good.
For some reason, when the old man saw Helen, his face showed some discomfort, and he said: "Little Helen, it's not that I don't want to see you, but your injury is so serious that my third uncle can't do anything about it... You took action forcefully after you passed away.
, the origin has been damaged, so it can only be repaired..."
When Raymond heard this, he realized that this was what happened.
He originally thought that Helen would give up after hearing this result, but he didn't expect... He heard another milky and overbearing squeal!
"Hmph! I don't care, anyway, third uncle, you must have something to do!"
Helen puffed up her cheeks and looked unhappy like this: "Now that there is such a big situation on the Demon Island, I, as an elder, are asked to stay in the city for decades to rebuild, and watch the clan members die.
...I do not want it!"
this...?
Raymond's face was full of disbelief. Is this Helen, who is as innocent and coquettish as a little girl, really the "Queen of Disaster" Shichibukai he knows?
The old man's face was full of helplessness and he sighed: "Third Uncle, there is really nothing we can do..."
But before he finished speaking, an even more surprising scene appeared for Raymond.
Helen looked so angry that she actually climbed up on the table, grabbed the old man's beard with a pair of lotus-like pink hands, and threatened: "Third uncle, if you don't help Helen, I will kill your beard."
Get naked!"
"Oh... you little girl, how come you haven't changed at all after so many years? Hey, hey, hey... your beard fell off, don't pull it out..."
The third uncle grinned in pain from having his beard pulled out, but he had no choice but to say, "Little Helen, you are now an elder of the clan, but you still have the temper of a girl when you were a child. Come on, third uncle's neck is about to be broken..."
While he was talking, he was afraid that the girl would really fall off, so he could only hold her on his neck with a grimace and ride her.
At this moment, Helen was like a arrogant little rooster, her little face tilted, "Huh... I won't come down!"
The old man burst into tears and said, "Oh... there's really nothing my third uncle can do about your injury, just slowly rebuild it..."
Helen: "I don't care! Anyway, I have to regain my strength as soon as possible, otherwise I will pluck your eyebrows, Third Uncle! I also have to tell the fox lady in Qingliu Lane that you are here... Anyway, you won't agree today."
, I will definitely not let go! Hehehe~"
Raymond on the side was completely stunned, and for some reason he felt secretly happy.
This old man was so cold and indifferent to me just now, he must be getting retribution now, hahahaha...
It's just like one thing comes down the other.
But...
Is this shameless and coquettish little girl really a big boss of Helen? Is it possible that her character has rejuvenated?
"Hey, little Helen... your injury has damaged your origin. Even if you rebuild it, it will be difficult. Unless you have the assistance of a divine object with the power of the divine ice law, you may be able to speed up your recovery, but..."
The old man's turbid eyes were full of regret, and he shook his head again, saying: "I still know where one or two other treasures with law attributes are, but the ones with ice law are completely impossible to find..."
After saying this, Helen stopped making fuss and sighed slightly.
She asked with the last glimmer of expectation: "Third uncle, are you really helpless?"
"Um."
The old man sighed and nodded.
"Why..."
Hearing this, Helen's expression darkened, and a hint of loneliness appeared in her eyes.
Even my third uncle, who has great magical powers, can't do anything about it. What should I do?
...
After listening for a long time, Raymond probably understood that Helen needed to restore her cultivation and needed some ice treasures.
He thought for a moment and spoke.
"Um...third uncle, you said that a treasure containing the power of the God-level Ice Law can restore Miss Helen's injuries? If that's the case... I have a treasure in my hand that may be able to help.
busy."
If you want to take it, you must first give it.
Raymond decided to make a big bet!
With this old man's character, he won't take advantage of others even when he drinks. If he shows his affection, he will definitely get high value and high returns!
What's more, if Helen could really regain her strength, the former Shichibukai boss would owe him a huge favor.
That's right,
What Raymond is referring to is the artifact in the system package that cannot be taken out, [Chione's Winter Chain of Gods]!
To him, this thing is just a useless thing that can only be seen in a package. If he really hopes to use it, he doesn't know what year or month it will be.
If you can really exchange such a useless artifact for the favor of a Shichibukai boss and a suspected ultimate BOSS, it will be worth it!
