Brother Jue's immoral behavior did not last long because the ghost pirate could not stand it anymore and stopped him, giving up on the idea of "listening to music."
After the strumming and singing stopped, Ruo Yu came back from the next room.
As soon as she entered the room, she looked at Brother Jue with disdain and said, "Are you done being crazy?"
"Ah … Almost …" Feng Bujue replied with a smile.
"Hmm … To be able to use this method to make an NPC withdraw a request … That's also a kind of ability," Xiao Tan commented.
"Well, kid, I understand your talent in music …" At this time, the ghost pirate said to Brother Jue, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have mentioned the word 'music' in front of you …" He paused for a few seconds and poured himself another glass of wine. "Why don't you tell a joke or something? You don't have a problem with that, right?"
"I have serious doubts about that …" Ruo Yu narrowed her eyes and said in a timely manner.
Feng Bujue ignored his teammate's sarcasm and looked at the ghost pirate and asked, "I can, but what do I get in return?" At this point, he felt that it was time to raise some conditions.
"Huh? What do you want? "The ghost pirate asked.
"That's not the point. The point is … What can you give me?" Feng Bujue continued.
"Hmm, you're right." The ghost pirate picked up the wine glass. "I can give you …" He hesitated for a moment and drank a mouthful of wine. "… A key."
"What else?" Feng Bujue asked again.
"Nothing else." The ghost pirate replied rudely. "If you want to add something else, I can give you a few slaps in the face. What do you think?"
"Is that so …" Feng Bujue mumbled under his breath. He thought to himself, Should I take out the Bell of Jin Gang and see if there is any value left on this NPC?
After a few seconds of consideration, he gave up the idea. He felt that … It was a waste to use the special effect of the Bell of Jin Gang here.
"Mr. Pirate, do you know the King?" A few seconds later, Brother Jue suddenly changed the topic. It seemed that he had already started telling his' joke '.
"Of course," the ghost pirate replied. "George II, the great King." His expression turned strange, and there was bitterness in his tone. "It was his fleet … that destroyed my ship, killed my subordinates, and stole my treasure …" When he said that, his transparent body flickered in and out of existence, and his eyes became weirder and weirder. "Haha … I seem to remember now …" He put down the wine glass and lifted his head to look at Brother Jue. "I am already dead, right?"
"Yes," Feng Bujue said bluntly.
"Ah … No wonder I don't feel anything after drinking this wine," the ghost pirate muttered.
"Since you know the king and have such a grudge against him, that makes things easier." Feng Bujue continued from where he left off. "Let's talk about George II."
"What? Do you want to tell a 'King's joke'? "the ghost pirate continued." I don't think I'll be amused by that. "
Feng Bujue ignored him and continued, "For most kings, to be able to suddenly die in an unexpected situation may be a kind of luck. This is much more dignified than being killed by enemies, relatives, or servants. They don't have to be tortured by illness for a long time, and they don't have to worry about their temperament changing due to old age. "
"What are you trying to say?" the ghost pirate asked.
"However, sometimes, there are some strange situations that cause them to lose this' dignity 'before they die." Feng Bujue continued, "On the morning of October 25, 1760, King George II, who had been suffering from constipation for a long time, suddenly died of a dissecting aneurysm due to excessive force when he defecated." He spread out his hands. "This unfortunate king of the British Empire died on the toilet."
When he finished, the room was silent.
A few seconds later …
"Hahahaha …" the ghost pirate burst into uncontrollable laughter. "This … Hahaha … This is … the most ridiculous … Hahahaha … joke I've ever heard … Hahaha …"
"In fact, I'm telling the truth," Feng Bujue continued expressionlessly.
"Hahahaha …" the ghost pirate laughed wildly again. "I can't … Hahaha … I'm going to die … Hahahaha …" He laughed so hard that it was as if his lungs were about to explode.
After a while, the guy finally caught his breath, but he still couldn't stop the smile on his face. "Ah … this feels so good." He took out a key from his pocket and put it on the table. "Take it, kid."
The moment the key left the ghost pirate's fingertips, it turned from a translucent shadow into a physical object.
After the pirate handed over the key, he became more and more transparent until he completely disappeared …
At the last moment, there was still an unscrupulous smile on his face that a scoundrel should have.
"Current quest completed."
When the system said that, the bottle, glass, and violin all dissolved into white light and disappeared.
Feng Bujue took two steps forward and picked up the key left behind by the pirate.
Item Name: Pirate's Gold Key
Item Type: Consumable
Quality: Normal
Function: Open Pirate's Treasure Chest
Can be taken out of the scenario: No
Remark: The owner of this key was obviously fond of gold and silver, but before he could enjoy the wealth that he plundered, he was buried at sea.
Brother Jue quickly showed the item description to his teammates.
About ten seconds later, Buu was the first to speak. "That's not right, is it? If this key is used to open a 'treasure chest', then … "He pointed at the door in Room A that had not been opened yet." … how do we open that door? "
Kacha!
A soft sound answered his question.
Just as everyone was looking at the item description, the door … was opened from the other side by someone (perhaps a human, perhaps not).
Even though it was only for two seconds, in those two seconds, the six players clearly saw a pale, slender hand with red fingernails holding the door frame.
When the door was opened to the width of a palm, the hand retreated back into the darkness behind the door.
"Jue, Jue, Jue … Brother Jue …" Xiao Tan's chin quivered as he spat out, "You, you, you … Look, look, look … We're here …"
"We're here …" Feng Bujue replied weakly. "It'd be weird if we didn't see it." As he spoke, he put the Pirate's Gold Key into his pocket and strode toward the door. "At a time like this, don't hesitate due to fear. Chase after it as fast as you can. Perhaps you'll find something unexpected."
"Hmm … No wonder you're Teacher Jue. Your analysis is so deep …" Buu looked at Brother Jue and said.
"Hmm … No wonder you're Teacher Jue. You're braver than a normal person …" Uub added.
This time, their praises hit the nail on the head. If there was anything Feng Bujue could not compare to a normal person, it was undoubtedly — he was fearless.
"Wow, this room is quite spacious." On the other side, Feng Bujue had already reached the door. He turned on the searchlight and pushed the door open. "Then … let's name this room 'Room C'."
The 'Room C' that Brother Jue mentioned was bigger than the previous Room A and Room B combined. Based on his visual estimation, it should be more than one hundred square meters. The room was rectangular in shape, and the walls and floor were also made from wood. However, the room had more furniture than the previous two rooms.
After entering the room, Feng Bujue used the searchlight to scan the room to observe the size and layout of the room. Then, he started to observe more closely.
"There's quite a lot of furniture in this room …" Brother Jue said as he held up the searchlight. "Long sofa, coffee table … hmm … there's even a CRT television on the coffee table."
While he was talking, the other five also turned on the lights and followed him in.
"Let me see … a closet, a low cupboard, two standing lamps …" Feng Bujue read out whatever he saw. He sounded relaxed. "A wilted bonsai, a piano, a collapsed bookshelf, and … huh?" He seemed to have seen something, and then he laughed. "Haha … there's a dead body here."
