2364 continents found
Western. A dilapidated Chu ship is advancing on the sea.
"We don't know where we've been? We couldn't see anything with a coast. The captain said worriedly. He looked around with his battered binoculars, hoping to see a continent so they could enter the land.
A strong wind not long ago caused them to deviate from their course, they were originally heading towards the coastline, but they did not expect a strong wind to blow them away from land, and now they have entered the ocean.
"Captain, if we can't find land, we'll have nothing. I'm running out of water. The Koreans told us that we can't drink seawater, well, we can only drink urine. The first mate said with some complaints.
They walked along the coastline, and several times along the way they could find places to stop, which seemed to have a lot of forest. But when it comes to using the land, it's at least fertile.
But for security reasons. The captain just didn't want to dock, because he felt that the plague would be contagious, and for safety, everyone still needed to find a new place, which was free of any plagues, had fertile land, and could be safe. It's such a simple idea. They missed the opportunity to dock again and again, until a strong wind blew them away from the mainland, and then they entered the sea.
"What if we die on the sea?" The first mate said worriedly.
"Don't worry. We will go to places where there is land. There will be. Standing at the bow of the ship and looking into the distance, the captain felt that he might have gone correctly, but that it would take time to prove it.
I can't remember what the captain's name was. There are many people whose names I can't remember clearly. People just called him Captain, but in reality, he was just a fisherman's son. He probably didn't know much about navigation. He knows the risks at sea, these people are poor people, because those who have money come to explore and look for gold, while those who do not have money come out just to find a way to seek development. The domestic taxes have become too much for them to bear, and now they have to come overseas to find a piece of land that does not have to pay taxes. Where the land is, they don't know anything.
"Me. I really want to see the continent in the distance. Then a woman stood at the bow of the boat and said.
"What?" The first mate was keenly aware of such a sentence and shouted excitedly.
And the captain immediately raised the telescope in his hand to check the situation in the distance. These ships are all poor, their only hope is to find a piece of land of their own overseas, so they bought a lot of food, tools, seeds, and all kinds of practical tools of life, this ship does not have any powerful weapons at all, only dozens of flintlock pistols, they also buy second-hand goods of Chu army deserters, some may not be able to fire. Under such circumstances, many people are still actively seeking the emergence of their new world.
"Like, it's the mainland." The captain climbed high, looked through the binoculars in his hand, and said calmly. Although he seemed to be calm, he was very excited inside.
"Great. The continent was discovered. The continent was discovered. We are saved. When the people on board heard the news, they immediately cheered, and they were very excited after such an ordeal.
"Great. That's great. The first mate said happily. And the captain was calm.
"Let our people be ready, there will be anything possible on the mainland, and after we land, we will do nothing, just wait quietly." The captain said.
This unknown Chu ship, carrying the task of the Chu State to find overseas colonies, dared to open up new ventures, although they were all poor people. This is the courage of the colonists of the Chu State.
They were unlucky though. They encountered an early northeast monsoon, and as a result, their original plan to shore off the coast of present-day Burma was suddenly blown to the other side, the South Asian subcontinent. The region of present-day India, and the continent they discovered was present-day India. Entering here, maybe they can change a lot of circumstances. But everything is unknown at the moment.
on the water river delta. In today's Mekong Delta, the Chu people who came here called it the Water River because of the abundant water flow here.
"I'm afraid this kid can't be saved. It's the pouring of medicine. It's also hard. Li Wei said with some difficulty.
"This. Please, doctor, save my baby. A woman fell to her knees as she spoke. And the man next to him had a begging look on his face. He wants his child to be healthy, but it's unlikely at the moment, he's already dead. But now, the plague has another child for him, and he can hold on for a while, but if the child dies, he may collapse. His woman has collapsed. His hope now is that the doctor will find a way.
Li Wei is a native of Chu, he is very interested in medicine, he has not studied special medicine, especially the one of Qin, it takes a lot of money to learn, he has no money, he can only work as a field doctor assistant to learn.
"The only way to do this is to try the infusion. The child was very weak and I had to give him glucose, saline, and possibly some other medication if needed. Li Wei looked at the woman and said helplessly. For infusion, many Chu people do not accept it, and the price is relatively expensive. A set of equipment, especially needles, is very expensive. He didn't know how the people of the Qin State made such a thing, but he had a set, and this was still a prize for the people of the Qin State to reward him for being a field doctor assistant. In fact, there are many such things, and the people of the Qin State have discovered the secret of blood type, battlefield infusion, and blood transfusion is no longer a special thing.
"Infusion, infusion?" The man asked, somewhat surprised.
"Yes. That's the only way. You see it too. Drinking medicine, or using needlestones, is no longer useful. That's the only way. Perhaps this is the last resort. Li Wei said helplessly. He didn't know if it would work. The only way to do this is to give it a try.
"Okay, okay, as long as you can save the child, you can do anything." The woman on the side had already spoken.
"Okay. As long as the child is saved, I am willing. The man gritted his teeth and decided.
"Okay. I started immediately. Li Wei said. Then they start giving the child an infusion.
