Chapter 120 Powerless
The young Allen woke up from his drowsiness. His mouth was slightly open, his eyes were staring at the beams in a daze, and tears slowly flowed from the corners of his eyes.
"Mom..."
Although many days have passed, he is still unwilling to face the reality that his only relative has passed away. Compared with the huge mental pain and the increasing scars on his body, On the contrary, I feel nothing.
More than half a month ago, the village where Allen lived was attacked by pirates. Behind his back, he and some people in the village were kidnapped as slaves by the pirates. What was even more unfortunate was that Allen’s mother was accused of trying to prevent the pirates from taking the pirates. He was killed for taking away his own son.
The boy was knocked unconscious, and he and other unfortunate slaves were put on a pirate ship and transported to the pirates' secret stronghold, a small island.
Many stronger and older people were put on the galleys to serve as oarsmen, while several children, including Allen, served as servants for the leaders.
The boy misses his deceased mother every day, remembering that her mother died to protect him. He burns with deep hatred for the pirates, hates his own weakness, and hates his own cowardice at that time.
He tried to escape, but every attempt failed. Once he had the opportunity to go to the beach. After learning that this was a pirate far away from the mainland, he realized that escaping here was definitely not possible. Easy.
The scars on his body were left after he was discovered after escaping several times before. Each time, he was severely beaten.
Facing the enslavement of pirates, he resisted and refused to obey, which resulted in repeated humiliations and tortures.
“If I hadn’t seen you as a handsome boy, I would have thrown you into the sea to feed the fishes.”
Alan’s pirate “master” slapped him hard once. After a while, she said to him.
While Alan was lying on the bed in a daze, the door opened, and he knew the person who walked in. It was Tom, a neighbor's child in the village. Many children in the village were kidnapped by pirates, and even Including that annoying guy Pine who always had trouble with him.
"Alan...are you having nightmares again?" Tom noticed the tears in the corners of Alan's eyes and asked aloud.
"Well, I dreamed about my mother again."
After hearing this, Tom's face also showed sadness. Although his parents were not killed by pirates like Ellen's mother, he never knew it in his life. Can I still see them? After several beatings, he was now resigned to his status as a slave.
He resisted the urge to cry and went over to hug his friend.
At this time, another person came in. It was an old servant who had been a slave here for many years. Seeing the scene of the two teenagers, he knew that the two children were missing their relatives again.
"Alas!" The old servant sighed and reminded: "Today it is Allen's turn to deliver food. Go quickly. If you are late, you will make those people unhappy again."< br>
Allen got up and got out of bed, went to the kitchen of the pirate stronghold to get a large food box, and reluctantly carried it towards a yard.
In the courtyard is a row of buildings, divided into small rooms, and a young woman is imprisoned in each small room. At his age, he still didn't know why the pirates locked up so many young women here and didn't let them work. He once asked the old servant, and the old servant replied that he would know when he was older, and also shook his head. He shook his head and said, "What a sin."
Under the supervision of the pirate guards, he took out the food from the lunch box and sent it to each room.
In the last room was a girl not much older than him. She was very cute, but she was supposed to be innocent and lively at her age, but now she had a blank look on her face.
Alan put the meal on the small table in the room. The girl nodded slightly to him, but there was still no expression on her face.
Just as the boy was about to leave, there was a commotion outside.
"Haha, it's finally our turn to relax. This time I want to try something smaller."
"It's true that you came here early in the morning. "This is the guard's voice.
“Standing on guard all night, I haven’t slept yet.”
A pirate burst in with a loud shout, and saw Allen who had not yet left. A spot on the boy’s body The brand made him recognize that this was a slave. He waved his hand impatiently and said: "Get out of here quickly, don't disturb my interest here."
interest? What does he want to do?
Alan noticed a look of fear on the girl's dull face, which made him instinctively feel that the pirate wanted to do harm to the girl.
“What are you going to do?” The pirate was a little surprised, and then put on a ferocious expression: “What do I do that you don’t care about? Well, let me tell you, I will ravage this little girl severely. Guys, what? Do you want to watch?”
“Don’t hurt her!”
The boy thought that the pirate was going to beat the girl up, so he plucked up the courage and opened his arms to block the pirate's face. His small body formed a sharp contrast with the pirate's strong body.
The pirate looked in disbelief. This little slave who came to deliver food had the courage to talk to him like this. Does he not know his identity and where this place is?
He smiled ferociously, "Yo yo yo! Where did the little brave man come from? Is he going to play a game of heroes saving beauties?"
The ferocious aura exuded by the other party made the boy unable to stop. He was shaking all over, but he still didn't flinch and stood in front of the pirates with a stubborn look on his face.
A big hand grabbed his clothes and lifted him up like a chicken.
"It seems that you are a newcomer who has just arrived. Let me teach you the rules here?"
"Let me go!" Allen held the pirate's hand with both hands and tried to open it. But the pirate's hand was like a pair of iron pincers. He tried in vain, so he had to shout: "It's wrong for you to bully people!"
"Bullying people? Hahaha!" The pirate laughed wildly, "You have to understand, this is a pirate den, the strong ones You can do whatever you want to a weakling."
He waved his arm and slammed the boy's head against the wall.
Alan felt a sharp pain in his head, followed by a strong sense of dizziness, and felt like everything around him was shaking.
The pirate asked him: "What? Do you still want to stop me?"
"You... you... are doing this wrong."
A fist as big as a casserole hit him all of a sudden. Allen's face spurted with nosebleeds.
The pirate was a little angry. If the slave hadn't been the "public property" of the group, he would have wanted to kill the kid with a knife.
He was about to continue teaching this blind little slave, when a small hand was placed on his body, it was the girl.
The girl shook her head at the pirate, a pleading look on her face.
"Hmph! Forget it, uncle, I still have things to do, so I don't want to waste time with this little guy."
Ellen, who was already dazed, was lifted out of the house. He was thrown outside like a rag, then the pirate kicked him in the head and the boy fainted.
When he woke up, he was lying on the bed in the room just now. The wound on his head hurt, and he almost fainted again.
“Thank you!”
A voice came into his ears. He turned around and saw that the girl sitting next to him was the girl. It seemed that she had not been beaten by the pirates.
“You’re welcome!”
Allen said, he was also a slave of pirates. He sympathized with the people locked up here. People outside could still walk around in the stronghold. And the women here seem to be unable to leave this courtyard.
He got up and got out of bed, and said goodbye after feeling that there was no problem in walking.
What can he change now? He couldn't change anything except expressing his dissatisfaction in the same powerless way before.
I didn’t go home until 2:30 in the morning, but the function was finally successfully debugged this week, so I don’t have to work overtime on weekends. (^ρ^)/
