Pirate's opening to capture the fluttering fruit

Chapter 109 The Desolation of the Town

"Let's go to the capital..." Elvis ignored Daphne and Ian's sadness, and walked ahead, leading a few people towards the town.

"Please wait for us..." Daphne took Ian's hand and quickly followed.

The group soon came to a more famous bar in the town.

Push open the swing door and walk in, the inside is a bit gloomy, there are not many people sitting there drinking and chatting, there are not as many people in the huge bar as they are, many tables and chairs are unused, and as soon as they walked in A few drinkers who were fishing at sea saw the arrogance exuded by Elvis and his group, especially the leader, Kyle and Bud. They quickly took out money and put it on the table, before waiting When the boss called, he hurried out.

"Wait, guests, you haven't found your money yet..." The young man in charge of serving wine shouted to them from behind, but he couldn't stop the hurried people from leaving.

"Hey, guests, please sit down. Just tell me what you want to drink. I will fill it up for you..." Although the boy serving the wine looked a little helpless, he didn't dare to speak to Elvis and the others who came in. To show the face, try to put on a smile of apologetic smile and ask them about their meal needs.

"Guests, please sit down. The old man looks very strange. They must have come from outside. If you have any needs or inquiries, just tell them. If the old man can answer you, I will definitely answer for you." As soon as the owner of the bar in Guangzhou saw Elvis and his party coming, he roughly guessed the reason why they came here, put down the wiped wine glass and Bai Juan, and spoke politely to them.

"Well, we really came here to find out something from you, boss!!" Saying that, Elvis gave the two sisters Anna a wink.

The two sisters got his wink, and immediately stepped forward, took out a small cloth bag and placed it in front of the bar, and when it was spread out, the rope was loosened, revealing a silvery luster, a bag of no less than [-] Baileys in silver coins put it in front of him.

"Hehehe, feel free to ask whatever the guest wants, the old man will know everything!!" Seeing the bag of coins, the bar owner's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to take it over. From day to day, he preached to them with a smile.

"There are two things I want to ask you. The first is the map or pointer leading to the capital, and the second is the power icon of the current division of the country..." Elvis didn't delay, and directly wrestled Dao Ming's intention.

"So what the guest wants to ask is this, please wait a moment, let me look for it... Well, I found it, the guest..." The boss' eyes lit up again after hearing Elvis' request, and then bent down, Rummaging in the table, after a while, he took out two drawings and put them on the table and handed them to him.

"The one with the red mark is the division of Herod's major forces in the recent period, and the blue mark is the address of the king's capital. Go north from this small town and go through a few towns. , do you have any questions from the guests?" The boss glanced at the drawings on the table and explained to them.

"Well, that's all, let's go!!" Elvis took it over, opened it, and he could understand the general direction markings. No room for drinks.

Elvis and his party started their journey with them after explaining and arranging the remaining personnel. The group walked northward along the established route, passed through many towns along the way, and saw people along the way. The tragic situation, the intense turmoil made the people of Herod panic, and many shops and street stalls were closed.

Although the road along the way was not as prosperous as the port, it was once a bustling town, but a few months ago, the royal family decided to sever ties with the Whitebeard Pirates, trying to donate heavenly gold to the world government and the Tianlong people. The whole country was shrouded in a dark cloud after obtaining their protection in a way, and the smoke of war spread silently. When the news of Whitebeard's death came half a month ago, Herold's contradictions were completely ignited. Various forces are preparing for war and launching rebellions. So far, except for a few cities, most of the cities and towns in the country have all kinds of industries depressed, leaving only desolate streets with people walking faintly.

"Master Elvis, I have already inquired about five families, but no one is willing to open the door to see us, let alone tell the real situation of the surrounding area and the capital..." Daphne's beautiful cheeks looked a little Depressed, she took the initiative to ask Ying to inquire about the news from the people around the street, but she didn't expect that no one would open the door and come out to see her.

She didn't find out any news, so she had no choice but to walk back and report to Elvis and the others without interest.

"It's normal. The people in this town have obviously been devastated by the war. We have been here for a while, and we haven't even seen a young man or even a middle-aged man, and those young and beautiful women, too. It seems that the rebel army or the king's army are forcibly confiscating soldiers in this town, leaving the town with no more labor force that can be used.

The origin of our group is unknown, and all of them have fierce expressions. How can these widows, women and children not be frightened when they see this?Go to the front and ask again, you can't ask anything if you spend too much time here! ! "Elvis said so many words, explained it to her and other people who didn't know the situation, and then took the lead and walked straight, towards the house marked by the hotel at the end of the road.

"Yes!!" Daphne didn't dare to refute his opinion, took her brother Ian's chubby little hand and followed the group of people forward.

When they arrived at the hotel door, Elvis and others stood there. Anna accepted his wink, stepped forward immediately, and knocked on the hotel door with a little force with her fingers curled.

boom! !boom! !boom! !

"Who is it?" Within two or three seconds, an old male voice came from inside, asking for the identity of the knocker.

The wooden door was opened with a gap, revealing half of his wrinkled, gray-haired face. His dirty eyes glanced at everyone from the inside, and then immediately closed the door with a slam.

"There are no soldiers and girls you want to conscript here, go elsewhere!!" Obviously, the old man inside regarded Elvis and his party as warlords who forcibly recruited soldiers and girls on Herod, and his tone was not polite at all. , drove straight away.

"Wait old man, we didn't think so, but I just want to ask you something, can you open the door and have a good talk?" Seeing this, Daphne knew that the old man inside had misunderstood the lineup and attire of her group. , hurriedly stepped forward to explain to him.

"Didn't you come to recruit people??"

At this time, the door was opened halfway, and the old man looked out from the inside with suspicious eyes.

"Yes, old man, the few of us came from the sea, and we wanted to go to the capital. On the way, we saw that the towns here are very deserted, and we rarely see young women and young men, so I want to ask you What happened, why are these people invisible?" Daphne asked the old man in a very gentle and friendly manner.

"Oh... the old man understands, let's talk when we come in..." Maybe seeing Daphne's so intimate attitude and Elvis and the others behind him not doing anything to him despite their aggression, he felt relieved and opened the door. Invite them in and explain in detail.
