The chaotic journey that a pirate begins

Chapter 25 The collapsed body

Pushing the door open and looking around the dim room, Newgate gradually slid his gaze towards the person lying on the bed.

The whole body is covered with bandages, and a trace of a human being can be seen vaguely.

It was motionless, as if it were a dead thing.

Trembling, Newgate slowly stepped forward and whispered.

"Aventurine"

The words were not answered, and there was only silence in the air. He took a deep breath, and Newgate suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Holding his forehead, Newgate's whole body was shaking.

pondering

"What are you doing?"

Eh?

Hearing these sudden words, Newgate was slightly stunned, and slowly raised his stiff neck to look at the source of the sound.

"Aventurine."

Unbelievable, Newgate continued to whisper as he walked to Dong Ling's side.

"Is that you"

"Otherwise? Apart from you and me, there are other people in this room."

Although the body lying on the bed did not move at all, the sound was indeed made by Dongling.

The worries in his heart slowly dropped, and with a deep sigh, Newgate asked.

"Your injuries."

Dongling answered directly without hiding anything.

"It's useless."

"What does it mean to be useless?"

The heart that had just been put down was hanging again, and Newgate quickly asked anxiously.

"You said it's useless!"

"Yeah, it's useless." After pondering, Dongling continued. "I can feel that except for my mouth, I can't move anywhere else."

The words were interrupted, thinking, and murmuring.

"I'm afraid the only difference between me and a vegetative state now is that I can still speak."

This fact is hard to accept. Even though Dongling, who is a victim, can accept it, Newgate, who regards his family as his only life, cannot accept it, hissed.

"really!"

"No, it's true. Didn't Sam tell you that when you came?"

Shen Shen exhaled a breath of turbid air, Newgate sat on the ground, Shen Shen said suddenly.

"I'll take you to the doctor!"

Dongling took a breath of thin air and said calmly.

"This is an empty island. Let's not talk about the medical environment and the number of doctors. Medicines are extremely scarce. How do you plan to take me for treatment?"

"Empty island?!"

First stunned, Newgate looked through the door at the white earth outside the house, and then he thought of it.

"How come we are on an empty island!"

Dongling sighed and said lightly.

"I don't know either. I don't have complete control over that move. It's fine within the field of vision, but outside the field of vision, where you teleport to depends entirely on your own luck."

"If we're lucky, maybe we can reach a relatively safe place. If we're not lucky, it's quite possible to reach the Navy Headquarters."

“And not just that”

Seeing Dong Ling collapsed on the bed, he suddenly stopped talking and Newgate said.

"The side effects are also quite serious."

Dongling acquiesced and said again calmly.

"Using a little bit of that overflowing power to strengthen my body can already reach the point where it can cause the body to collapse. And using its original power can turn my entire body into ashes."

"In the final analysis, that power is not something that a 'human' can control at all."

Speaking of this, Dongling lamented and rejoiced.

"Now that I can be alive, I suddenly feel that I am really lucky."

Leaning against the wall behind him, Newgate clenched his fists and said in a deep voice.

"This is the reason why you have never used this power."

Noncommittal, Dongling acquiesced.

"What a dangerous force."

The air became silent, and the two of them seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding and remained silent.

"Hey, Qinghai people, it's time to eat."

Don't open the slightly closed door slowly, and put the dinner plate in your hand on the table in the dimly lit room.

Perhaps sensing the strange atmosphere in the room, the man suddenly closed his lips.

The silent atmosphere was embarrassing, the man said leisurely.

"Well, I'll leave first."

Walking to the door, before going out, Dong Ling's words slowly came.

"Thanks, Sam."

Sam was stunned for a moment, then smiled softly and said to Newgate, who was sitting on the ground thoughtfully.

"Hey, I'll leave it to you to take care of Dongling."

With that said, Sam slowly walked out of the door.

Then through the sparse sunlight in the tent, Newgate stood up and picked up the food on the table.

Walking around Dong Ling's bedside, he asked.

"Can you swallow it?"

"Okay, otherwise how do you think I've been here these past few days."

The bandage covered Dong Ling's whole body, leaving only a small gap above his eyes.

Looking at the turbid eyes next to the bandage, Newgate couldn't believe it and said in a deep voice.

"your eyes"

"Blind, all blind."

""

Dongling was not surprised about his own eyes.

The left eye is the source of power, and the distance between the right eye and the left eye is even more astonishingly short. It would be strange if nothing unexpected happened.

He took off a bandage on Dong Ling's arm and looked at the burnt, hard skin underneath.

Newgate closed his trembling eyes little by little.

"What are you going to do next?"

Listening to Newgate's soft inquiry, Dongling asked in reply.

"It's what you plan to do."

Stunned for a moment, Newgate chuckled.

He stood up and walked slowly outside the house.

With a sigh, Dongling suddenly felt a little dim in front of him.

The thing in the left eye that was suspected to be a space gem made Dongling what it is now, but it also destroyed Dongling in the future.

Dongling doesn't know whether his body can recover, but the only thing he can confirm is.

The power in his left eye is still replenishing his body, nourishing Dongling's whole body like a stream.

Even if it can be restored, it may take an unusually long time.

Maybe one year, maybe two years, maybe seven years, eight years

Dongling can wait, but some people cannot afford to wait.

Coming outside the house and looking at Sam who was getting ready, Newgate asked.

"There is a doctor here."

Sam whispered as he led Newgate to the door of a tent and gently knocked on the wooden door in front of him.

"Village Chief, the Qinghai people rescued a few days ago are looking for you."

The door was slowly opened. Looking at the thin old man in front of him, Newgate asked.

"Are you the doctor here?"

His old and vicissitudes of life made it difficult to move, and his legs were constantly trembling. The old man nodded gently.

"I am the village chief of this Shandia tribe and the only doctor here. You are here for your companions."

Newgate nodded.

The old man opened the door behind him and motioned for Newgate to come in.

Newgate shook his head, stood on the soft cloud ground, and said.

"That's it. I want to know all about Dongling's current physical condition."

"Dongli? Oh, he's the one with you."

Sam saw the two talking at length and slowly left silently.

asked the old man, staring at Newgate with cloudy eyes.

"Who is that child to you?"

Without hesitation, Newgate answered immediately.

"Family! My only family now!"

This worried face could not be faked, and the old man had a slightly clear understanding of the anxious mood of the man in front of him at this moment.

Said.

"That child, to put it bluntly, can survive."

"It can be called a miracle!"
