Chapter 121 Mauritius

"That's where my dad died."

After listening to little Gary's words, and then looking at little Gary with a sad face, everyone couldn't say anything for a while.

"Little Gary, do you know how to get to Skull Island?" Seeing that everyone was not good at asking, Xie Changchang on the side hugged little Gary and asked.

"I don't know, I just listened to my grandfather, who said it was a terrible place, and my father died because he didn't follow his advice." Gary Jr. said.

"So little Gary, where is your grandfather now?" Professor Charles asked, now that he had some clues, Professor Charles didn't want to be cut off like that.

"Little Gary's grandfather lives in Mauritius now, and when I get to Mauritius, I can take you to him." Xie Changchang replied.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Xie." Professor Charles said excitedly.

"It's nothing, if it weren't for you, I guess Gary and I would still be floating at sea." Xie Changchang waved his hand and said.

I got some information about Skull Island, which made everyone very happy, there is no specific address, but as Grandpa Gary, who has lived in Mauritius all his life, I think he should know the specific address of Skull Island. So, all of a sudden, Quake also picked up the speed of the yacht and quickly approached Mauritius.

In this way, after half a day's work, everyone finally came to Mauritius.

The Republic of Mauritius is an island country in eastern Africa, located in the southwestern Indian Ocean. As a volcanic island nation, Mauritius is surrounded by coral reefs. The island's diverse landscape ranges from narrow plains along the coast to highland mountains in the middle, with multiple mountain ranges and isolated peaks. The entire territory consists of the island of Mauritius and other small islands,

The population of Mauritius is about one million people, mainly Indians and Creoles, and the rest are Chinese and Europeans. Although the official language is English, there are not many Mauritians who speak English.

It is worth mentioning that Mauritius has a mild climate. Beautiful scenery. Therefore, many tourists come here every year for tourism and vacation, and at the same time, the majority of these people are Chinese. Many Chinese settled in Mauritius after living in Mauritius for a while.

After the yacht approached Mauritius, Zhao Qi saw many people from all over the world in swimsuits on the beach, and also saw many Chinese. It made Zhao Qi feel a lot more cordial.

"Wow. I love this place. David didn't know where it came out. Holding a pair of binoculars, he looked at the various beauties on the beach.

"David, we're going to stay here for at least a while, and you'll see when the time comes. Now let's go ashore early and send Gary and them home. Zhao Qi said and pulled David back into the cabin.

After sailing for more than half a month, as soon as everyone stepped on the stable land, they suddenly began to get dizzy, it seemed that the long-term bumps had made them accustomed to this feeling, and they were a little unaccustomed to walking on the land that no longer swayed.

The two ladies, Bonnie and Lily, were even more severely sinned, and as soon as they stepped on land, they vomited and were confused, and Zhao Qi and David hurriedly stepped forward to support them.

"Professor Charles, thank you again for saving us, I'm going to help you book a place to stay now, and you can rest well today." Xie Changchang stepped off the yacht and said to Professor Charles.

"Okay, thank you so much." Professor Charles said with a smile.

"It's nothing, I'll send little Gary home now, and then I'll talk to Gary's grandfather." Xie Changyuan naturally knew the purpose of Zhao Qi and his party, and said it first.

Xie Changchang's place of residence is not very far from the beach, and he has returned in less than half an hour, and he has also come with a business car.

"Professor Charles, I'll go to the hotel now." Xie Changchang stepped down from the car and said to Zhao Qi and his party.

As a country dominated by tourism, Mauritius has naturally put a lot of effort into hotels. Although the hotel Xie Changyuan found is not a five-star hotel, it is very comfortable in terms of environment.

After the things were done at the hotel, it was already around five or six o'clock in the afternoon, and Xie Changchang took eight people to eat a meal of quite distinctive Mauritian cuisine.

"Professor Charles, you have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow morning, I will come back and take you to Gary's grandfather, and if you have any questions, you can call me." After dinner, Xie Changchang handed a few business cards to everyone and went home alone.

After a long journey at sea, everyone is more or less tired, and the news of Skull Island has been obtained, and Gary's grandfather will naturally not leave, so everyone is not in a hurry tonight, and has a good rest in the hotel.

Early the next morning, Xie Changchang came to the hotel early and set off with everyone to find Gary's grandfather.

In Xie Changyuan's car, everyone also inquired about the situation in Gary's grandfather's house.

"Gary Jr.'s grandfather is a Mauritian legend." Xie Changchang said.

"At that time, Mauritius was still a British colony, and it was not as prosperous as it is now, it could only be regarded as an ordinary island country, and most Mauritians lived by fishing. At that time, Grandpa Gary was a very famous fisherman in the area, and he was also a very good hunter. ”

"Raiders? What is it? David in the back of the car asked.

"The Indian Ocean was not as calm as it is now, and in addition to some British warships, there were countless pirates roaming the Indian Ocean." Xie Changyuan's words immediately aroused everyone's interest.

"Pirates, are they Somali pirates?" Lily asked curiously, she had already rested all night, and she was recovering well at this time.

"There are Somali pirates, but Somali pirates are just what everyone knows now, and there are many more powerful pirates. These pirates not only plundered the British army, but also attacked the indigenous people of Mauritius. Chickens and dogs are often left everywhere they go, which is very hateful. ”

"Then there is no army in Mauritius?" David asked again.

"At that time, Mauritius was under British rule, and the British side naturally would not let Mauritius have its own armed forces." Saying this, Xie Changyuan suddenly realized that several of the eight people behind him were British, and immediately turned his head and smiled awkwardly.

"So in order to protect their village from pirates, many fishermen spontaneously organized themselves to form a 'pirate hunting team' against pirates, and Gary's grandfather was the leader of the 'pirate hunting team'." Xie Changyuan said like a treasure.

"It's so powerful, although I haven't seen a pirate, but it must be the kind of person who kills people without blinking, right?" David asked, surprised.

"Almost, if the pirates enter the fishing village, it will be the same as the Japanese devils entering the city, which is basically the 'three-light policy'." Xie Chang looked at Zhao Qi and said.

"What is the 'three-light policy'?" Naturally, several scholars who are familiar with history do not ask these questions, and this is what David on the side asked.

"The three lights are to kill the light, burn the light, and rob the light." Zhao Qi explained on the side.

"These pirates are disgusting." Listening to Zhao Qi's words, Quake said angrily. He has been a mercenary for ten years, and he is a lot of people, but he will not wantonly slaughter innocent civilians, so he will be so angry when he hears the cruel methods of these people.

"In fact, the British as colonizers were even more hateful." Zhao Qi said on the side. And several scholars immediately became embarrassed when they heard Zhao Qi's words.

"Why? Although Britain colonized, it didn't kill anyone, right? David asked, puzzled.

"They didn't kill many people, but they completely wiped out the national culture of the Mauritians, and colonization was in some ways more terrible than genocide." Zhao Qi shook his head and said lightly. As Zhao Qi's words fell, the carriage suddenly fell silent, but fortunately, in less than two minutes, Xie Changyuan's home arrived. To be exact, Gary's house should have arrived.

"Alright, Gary's house has arrived, let's get out of the car." Xie Changyuan stopped the car and said to the people behind.

At the door of Gary's house, Gary, who heard the voice, was walking out of the door, and when he saw Xie Yuan, he pounced, and it seemed that the relationship between the two was very deep.

"Let's go, Gary's grandfather is waiting for you at home." Xie Changchang should be a frequent visitor here, so he pushed open the door and walked in, and everyone entered one by one.

In the living room of the room, a tough old man sat in his seat, and beside him there was a thick cane.

"Professor Charles, this is Gary's grandfather. Grandpa Gary, this is Professor Charles from England. Xie Changchang acted as an intermediary and introduced everyone to Grandpa Gary one by one.

"Hello, Professor Charles, thank you for saving little Gary." Grandpa Gary seems to have a bad leg and feet, and he sits in a chair all the time.

"It's nothing, we just happened to be passing by." Professor Charles said.

"You guys came to tell us last night, when they sent little Gary back." Grandpa Gary said lightly.

"I do know where Skull Island is, and I happen to be one of no more than five people in the whole of Mauritius who know about it."

"Then the old gentleman wonders if you can tell us where this place is?" As soon as he heard Grandpa Gary's words, Professor Charles immediately became excited and hurriedly asked.

"Before that, can I find out why you're going to Skull Island?" Grandpa Gary did not answer Professor Charles's words, but asked about the purpose of Professor Charles's trip, and the question immediately made Professor Charles hesitate. (To be continued......)
