After subduing Hattings and transforming into General Kuzan, Lannie left the hotel with two guards and a team of disguised warriors after Qian Fang's instructions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qian Fang and General Kuzan, who disguised himself as a Tannin soldier, led another group of soldiers towards the dark harbor where the freighter was secretly anchored.
The cargo ship led by Lannie's team was actually carrying a load of grain and vegetables.
Even if it is discovered by the enemy, it will definitely be lost.
After arriving at the dark harbor, seeing a behemoth moored in front of him, Qian Fang unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth.
It's a freighter, undoubtedly, a little shabby, and looks a little old. However, the hull is huge, and it is clear that this ship can hold a lot of things if you have supplies.
If it's just these, it won't make the money feel anything unusual.
The most eye-catching thing about this ship is that it is actually flying the Star-Spangled Banner of Midi!
You must know that the government army represented by General Kuzan, and the backer behind its main enemy, the Abbe army, is Midi.
However, Qian Fang also expressed his understanding of General Kuzan's approach.
Along the way, there are probably a few main potential enemies. The first is the increasingly rampant piracy force that makes a living by robbery in the Strait of Malacca. The second is that after arriving on the African continent, the Abbe army may appear.
Although hanging the military flag of the Mi Emperor is not foolproof, it is still possible to avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.
"Qian, come with me, I'll take you to meet someone."
After boarding the ship, General Kuzan led Qian Fang to a specially prepared dark room.
As soon as the follower General Kuzan entered the door, Qian Fang saw a thin old man dressed in white and wearing a white turban.
The old man looks to be only about 170 centimeters tall. Skinny and cheeks. It may seem unremarkable, but anyone who sees his eyes full of wisdom and love will definitely be deeply impressed.
"This is an old man who has gone through all the vicissitudes and is full of wisdom." Qian Fang said secretly in his heart.
After General Kuzan saluted the white-robed old man, he took Qian Fang and introduced, "This is the High Priest Midnet. Thanks to the protection of the High Priest along the way, I was able to reach your country without any problems. However, the High Priest was also injured because of this, so I asked for your country's help. ”
"Hello High Priest!"
Qian Fang also saluted High Priest Midnet in the same way as General Kuzan, and when he saw the thin old man, he took out a yellow doll from his bosom and said a bunch of dirty words to Qian Fang.
"General, what did the High Priest say?" After the high priest finished speaking, Qian Qian turned his head and asked.
"Quick, pull off a hair!" General Kuzan said excitedly, "Yellow represents protection, evil spirits, and friendship, and it is the high priest's prayer for you. The voodoo doll that the high priest personally casts spells is hard to find! ”
"Voodoo dolls?" Hearing General Kuzan say this, Qian Fang knew who the old man in front of him was.
The actual real identity of this High Priest of Midnet is the High Priest of Voodoo, the state religion of Tanning. is a wizard who is proficient in spiritism and the leader of voodoo in the kingdom of Tanning.
The life of this old man is also legendary.
Legend has it that High Priest Midnet possessed the ability to converse with the spirits of all things shortly after he was born. By the time he was three years old, he could already cast spells and pray for the tribe by talking to the gods.
When he was 20 years old, he had been using witchcraft to heal people and pray for blessings, and for the first time in his life, he used witchcraft to curse and hurt, and single-handedly killed all the more than 50 fallen wizards who would commit it.
After becoming famous in World War I, he did not carry out an iron-blooded counteroffensive plan, but chose to stay in his hometown and continue to pray for the blessings and disasters of his congregation.
Because of this, he was loved by the majority of the congregation and rose in status until he became the high priest of voodoo.
And in the process, those fallen wizards also paid a great price in the continuous provocations that followed.
No matter how many men were sent or how many attacks were organized, in the end, all of them were neutralized by High Priest Midnett.
In the eyes of the people of Tanning Country, he is synonymous with the undefeated god of war.
After a moment's hesitation, Qian Fang happily plucked off a hair and handed it to High Priest Midnet. I saw him shove his hair into the slit of the puppet, and then the shriveled old mouth began to chant the incantation in a low voice.
At this time, Qian Fang felt that a strange power fluctuation came from the yellow voodoo doll and enveloped him, making him feel warm.
At the same time, Qian Fang felt that there seemed to be a force in the dark that began to work, guarding his side. It seems that as long as there is a crisis, it will instantly transform into a guardian power and protect yourself from retreating.
"Thank you, High Priest!" Qian Fang was still knowledgeable, and he sincerely saluted Old Man Midnet, and then said to General Kuzan, "General, I can help a little with the bruises in the High Priest's body." Please help me to convey to the High Priest that as a token of my gratitude to him, I would like to help him recover from his injuries. ”
"Really?" When General Kuzan heard this, his face suddenly changed, and a look of ecstasy appeared on his rugged face, "If the high priest's injuries can be recovered, even if we encounter that sea monster again, we will not be afraid!" ”
General Kuzan conveyed his thanks to High Priest Midnet in the native language, and when High Priest Midnet heard this, his wise eyes looked up and down on Money's face again.
"The high priest said, "Thank you for your concern." General Kuzan locked the door of the house, "Money, I'm sorry for you!" ”
……
The high priest's injuries are not complicated.
It's just that his old man is over ninety years old, and his aging body can't withstand the great power he has.
So while using this power, he himself suffered internal injuries due to overload.
After helping High Priest Midnet adjust his body, Qian Yi, with the assistance of General Kuzan, who was temporarily acting as an interpreter, exchanged a few words with him, asked a few questions, and left with General Kuzan, leaving him to rest quietly.
After the two of them came to the bow deck, Qian Fang opened his hands and enjoyed the sea breeze on his face, then turned to General Kuzan and asked, "You just said that you encountered a sea monster, what happened to that...... What does that sea monster look like? ”
At the mention of this sea monster, General Kuzan's face unconsciously showed a trace of fear. Rubbing his stiff face, General Kuzan spoke, "Speaking of which, it was before we entered the Strait of Malacca, when we first started talking about where to anchor......
As a result, before the words could be spoken, the freighter seemed to have been hit by something, and the alarm horn began to sound for a long time.
