Chapter 1767: Fish-Eaters

The shipwreck on the isolated island, the village in the forest, the mountain hut, the ancient city of Heishui, the Heavenly Master Palace, the Golden Palace, all of them, together with the countless secrets of the Blackwater Country and the ancient times, were swallowed up by that huge whirlpool, it was like a merciless giant mouth, completely destroying everything on that isolated island.

And, of course, the animals, the dear rabbits and deer, the terrifying black water snakes and splinter lizards, all vanished and sank forever into the endless depths of the ocean.

And great white sharks!

Thinking of that great white shark, Zhang Tianyuan's eyes couldn't help but moisten, the great white shark that had helped him through several difficulties, and the great white shark that had frolicked with him, was also swallowed by the damn whirlpool.

Wukong, the big cat and the lightning didn't know what they were going through there, they all felt a little surprised and a little incomprehensible when they watched Zhang Tianyuan secretly wipe his tears there, Wukong even patted Zhang Tianyuan's shoulder with his paws, as if to comfort Zhang Tianyuan not to cry.

Zhang Tianyuan sighed, yes, it's useless to cry, for now, let's think about how to get out of trouble, although he escaped from that almost closed island, but this is the sea, there are no other islands and ships within a radius of twenty kilometers, he really doesn't know where to go for help.

Could it be that in the end, you still have to drown here?

Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The scorching sun seemed to be completely unable to comprehend his current situation, constantly using the temperature that could burn people to death, and wantonly plundered the moisture in his body.

He can hide in the water, but the question is, how long will he have to stay?

Zhang Tianyuan shook his head helplessly. Just now, because I was swallowed by a big whale, I didn't have a place to get some fresh water. All the fresh water now is a kettle that Lightning is carrying. If you drink it all, you will die, and there is no fresh water at sea, which is even more terrifying than in the desert.

Thinking that he might be dying of thirst here with the big cat and Wukong, Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, that whale is really, if you want to save me, send me to some kind of ship, to the sea where there is nothing around. Do you want to play me?

Someone once said that the absence of water in the desert is like the blood of a living person being drained, but you must know that the absence of water in the sea is like a living person being drained of blood and having to be salted in salt water.

At this moment, Zhang Tianyuan was a little helpless, he was worried about the scorching sun. So release the buoyancy board and lie on it, so that at least you can avoid direct sunlight, and it will be slightly more comfortable. But it's been a long time. It's still not a problem.

I don't know how long it took, but the big cat suddenly roared, and it looked very excited.

Zhang Tianyuan looked suspiciously in the direction of its roar. Immediately, a frightened expression appeared on his face, it was the dorsal fin of a shark. It was so conspicuous that it wasn't just a dorsal fin. Rather, a dozen dorsal fins.

"Oh my mother, why is she so unlucky, she didn't die of thirst, but she turned out to be a shark's delicacy first. Shark brothers, I've never eaten shark fin, so you have to be reasonable. Although he shouted helplessly, Zhang Tianyuan knew that in addition to a miracle that could save him at this time, that was his own person, and he was in a hurry to prepare to input a large amount of earth qi into the buoyancy board, so that he might be able to float high in the air, at least to avoid the attack of sharks.

It was then that he noticed that the dorsal fins were not moving, and a shark peeked out of the sea.

"Damn! Great White Shark!" Zhang Tianyuan turned from horror to surprise, he would never forget this great white shark, this guy was the guy he met on the isolated island.

At that moment, he thought that he was dazzled, after all, he was hungry and tired at this time, and the great white shark looked similar, so it was possible to see dazzle, so he hurriedly rubbed his eyes desperately with his hands, and then looked carefully, the great white shark was swimming towards him, and even smiled at him.

That's right, it's the great white shark, it's really it!

"What? You say you know there's an island nearby that can be used to solve the problem for a while?"

"There's water?"

"Fresh water?"

"And the fish?"

"What?

Zhang Tianyuan happily communicated with the great white shark, and now he found that he really did the right thing by not killing the great white shark to eat meat, otherwise in this situation, he would really have to wait for death.

The great white shark greeted its brothers, and then there were three sharks in the front to form an arrow shape, and the rest of the sharks were some escorting around, and some were carrying Zhang Tianyuan, the big cat, Wukong, and Lightning to swim together.

"What? You said those sharks were your little brothers?"

"You said you also escaped from the belly of a big whale?"

"Hahaha, let's be considered to be in sympathy for each other. ”

"Thank you, Dabai, if you have the opportunity to see you again, I will definitely let you live the most comfortable life. ”

Da Bai didn't answer these last words, as if he was thinking about something, the sharks were very fast, twenty kilometers away, and it didn't take long to swim over, with these guys escorting, no other fish dared to come and disturb at all.

About an hour later, they finally brought Zhang Tianyuan and the others to an island.

Well, it's not actually an island, it's supposed to be a peninsula, but the sea and the river cut off the peninsula from the mainland, so it looks like an island.

The peninsula is not big, there are people fishing there on the shore, and then suddenly they all knelt down and bowed to this side, they are all brown people, this kind of person Zhang Tianyuan has seen for the first time, the language in their mouths Zhang Tianyuan does not understand, but communication is not a problem, because Zhang Tianyuan is angry.

It turned out that these people directly regarded Zhang Tianyuan as their god.

Strictly speaking, this peninsula belongs to a country called "Black Hill", but basically, Black Hill is from the period of tribal rule, so this peninsula is almost like independence, there are chieftains, there are sacrificial tribes, but the population is very small, there are only six or seven hundred people in total, mainly relying on fishing for a living.

Their tribe is called the Fish-eating Tribe, and the tribe is called the Fish-Eating Tribe.

The tribal totem of the fishivore tribe is none other than the great white shark, and in their legend, there will be a foreigner who will come on a great white shark to drive away the pain and disease for them, and save the whole tribe.

Such prophecies have been circulated for nearly a thousand years, but the people of the fish-eating tribe have always believed that one day will come, but they don't know when, but what they didn't expect is that they saw it now, and they naturally wept bitterly, and kept kneeling down and praying.

"Dabai, we're just here, as long as there are people, there will be a way to contact my people to save me, and you can go back. ”

After going ashore, Zhang Tianyuan didn't care about those people's bowing to him, he had experienced this kind of thing once, and he was not so surprised, although he was not so exaggerated when he went to Snow Eagle Village, but he was also very respected.

"You're not leaving?"

"Guarding me?"

"And what about your brother?"

"They have their lives?"

Zhang Tianyuan looked at the great white shark with emotion and sighed: "I'm wandering now, I didn't expect it to be four, no, it should be five animals who saved me, it seems that I didn't do anything wrong with my love for animals, alas, if I am in a good situation now, you must be very welcome to stay, but now in this situation, I don't know what will happen next." ”

"You're not afraid?"

"Don't mind?"

"Alas, how can I repay you, it's just that, you can stay if you want, but be safe, those people on the shore seem to be fishing for a living, don't be caught by them." ”

Zhang Tianyuan at this time because he had just landed and did not know about the fish-eating people, so he had this kind of worry, and later he knew that the fish-eating people actually used the great white shark as a totem, just like the Indians worship the sacred cow, and then he knew that his worries were unnecessary at all.

The great white shark took away his little brothers, and then dived into the water to rest, but he didn't leave too far, just near the peninsula, and he could get in touch with Zhang Tianyuan at will.

"God, help us!"

Zhang Tianyuan turned around, and was about to ask the locals for saliva to drink, thinking about how to tell others, fortunately, he has a local spirit, even if the language barrier can communicate, and the insight of the word trick is now able to read people's hearts, and can also know what the other party means in an instant, otherwise, it will really be a headache.

But I didn't expect him to speak before he spoke, the other party spoke first, and of course these words were translated through Huiyan.

"Help you, what's wrong with you?"

Although Zhang Tianyuan now wants to drink water and eat quickly, he knows that if you want to get something, you have to pay something, and what he wants to do most now is to quickly establish a good relationship with these natives, and then whether it is to eat and drink, or find a way to send a message to the outside, it is easier to do.

"Our tribe has been plagued by a strange illness for many years, many people have died not long after birth, and some people have lived to be in their thirties despite being healthy and healthy, but their limbs are weak, their spirits have faded, they are irritable, they are tired from doing any work, their skin is prone to redness and swelling, and even their faces are swollen, their gums are bleeding, their teeth are falling out, and finally they die tragically. ”

The one who spoke was an old man wearing a strange fish-head mask and holding a fishbone scepter in his hand, probably either a chief or a sacrifice, Zhang Tianyuan was not very familiar with this, but what kind of disease he said made Zhang Tianyuan think of a disease.

That is the scurvy that once ravaged the seas.

Scurvy is a disease known to humans hundreds of years ago, but because humans did not understand the cause of vitamin C in the past, it was called an incurable disease at that time, and the mortality rate was very high.

It wasn't until 1911 that humans determined that it was caused by a lack of vitamin C. (To be continued.) )
