Chapter 431: Developing Australia (3)
Sailors are experienced in eating large sea turtles.
It's not good to be too big, it's too old; It's not good to be too small, it's too tender.
They specialize in catching 100 to 150 pounds, and the meat has the best taste.
They also have a lot of experience in catching, two or three people can see it, one rolls over, and the big turtle can't run away, unless it encounters a high tide!
Luckily, those big turtles are really laying eggs, haha, there are eggs to eat!
The sailors who rushed to the sand island were extremely excited, and the joy seemed to be transmitted to the sea.
The people on the sea boat are also happy, and the food will be much better this time.
However, those who were brought to the deck were not happy.
The two Balu brothers looked at the sea with pale faces and expressionlessness, and they thought to themselves, is this the end of the sky?!
The two of them are in good health, but at sea, it seems that the better the body, the more they vomit, and they almost vomited to death a few days ago!
Suddenly they came up from the gloomy cabin, the sunlight was particularly dazzling, and the two of them supported each other, barely able to stand.
The sea breeze brought fresh air, and they gasped and felt better.
Balugo touched his bald head and whispered, "I thought they would throw us into the ocean------
Each of them had their heads shaved, which saved them from taking care of them and reduced the chance of infectious diseases.
Baludi also touched his bald head and said, "When they hang the commander, I will not be afraid of death, and dying in the pit is no different from dying in the sea." ”
Like most cavalry, they were called to fight with their lords.
No one answered them, they were herdsmen, and when they were called, they prepared their horses and weapons------ and gave all their flocks to their parents.
Of course, they couldn't think of this ending now, but fortunately, at least their brother was still alive.
The two of them looked at the big terrible turtle that those people had hung up in amazement, and they couldn't understand why they were so happy, did they want to eat this?!
The Balu brothers were almost disgusted again.
At this time, they were driven off the deck and replaced to breathe.
All the Tatars honestly obeyed orders------ and those who did not like to obey were killed long ago in the coal mines.
Captain Dog gulped down the green matcha he took out of the freezer, almost half of the bamboo tube at once------ he didn't like to drink Liuqiu-style tea, but he was interested in green matcha.
His first mate had just said that if the wind direction and speed remained the same, they would be less than two days away from the so-called Zamboanga.
Captain Dog looked at the charts on the table and said, "Okay, we can let them breathe again, we still have time to spare."
He stared at Australia, which was much bigger than Liuqiu Island on the charts, and wanted to know what it was like there.
The rest of the voyage was simpler, their speed could not be increased, they entered a multi-island area------ the sea became calmer and calmer, fortunately they had a sextant, and finally reached the Zamboanga area.
Captain Dog raised his monoculars and looked at it to great disappointment, there were no indigenous tribes there, it was completely uninhabited------ but it seemed that there was a large river, and according to the reports of those who had gone to explore the hydrological situation, the depth of the bay there could provide anchorage.
The captain of the gnawing dog ordered all the people to disembark and adjust, and at the same time replace the fresh water.
On both sides of that great river were wide white sand beaches, the same color as the beach.
The sound of some kind of animal is often heard in the dense forests on the shore.
The broad-leaved grass of the dense forest, taller than a person, is so densely packed together that it is impossible to see what is inside.
The captain of the dog gnawing heard from the person who went ashore to investigate that there was no trace of human habitation within 10 kilometers upstream.
He admired Wang Defa's house even more, he really knew everything, and even knew that he could stop where he had never been.
The captain of the dog gnawing also asked those people to go ashore at the same time, and asked them to wash in the river, because they were too dirty and easy to get sick.
He was really not afraid that they would run away------ this was a place with no way to escape, God knows what was in that dense forest!
The members of the Wanderers were all clutched to their large bolt guns, and they were often frightened by the inexplicable roars of the jungle, and no one knew what they were.
It wasn't until later that everyone figured out that the roar was actually from a funny monkey!
They were so frightened by them that night------- they lit dozens of bonfires on the beach, which lit up the beach so brightly, and it was probably the brightest night in the place.
Except for some who returned to the boat, the rest lay on the beach and slept overnight.
The next day, Captain Dog saw that the faces of those people, especially the Tatars, were much better.
There is a big difference between sleeping on land and sleeping at sea.
After counting the number of people, there was no one who took the opportunity to escape, they were not stupid, they knew that the more people there were, the more they could survive.
Once you're back on sail, the process becomes simpler.
Captain Dog's lieutenants became busy, not only keeping a detailed nautical diary, but also recording the general situation of the islands along the way, as well as the accurate latitude and longitude.
In their monoculars, there are too many islands, large and small.
It wasn't until they passed through the Banda Island Strait that there were fewer islands in the sea.
At that time, everyone was thrilled by the magnificence of the Banda Strait, where the cliffs on both sides stood like walls, and the waves crashed against them, and the echoes rumbled!
Haha, it's as simple as a door to another world, and they're the first to pass through here!
Captain Gnawing Dog looked at this scene with ups and downs, he didn't understand why Wang Defa's family didn't let Yang Youxing send a writer to follow them------ maybe only they could depict this magnificence!
In fact, the editor-in-chief Yang Youxing also asked Wang Defa's family why he didn't let him send someone to follow.
Wang Defa's family answered him very simply.
"When the time comes------ let's talk about it after a while!"
"That place is scary?!"
"No, it's always people who are ------ to be scary"
Well, the editor-in-chief of Yang Youxing didn't get the answer he wanted, he knew that it was the master who didn't want to tell him.
That night, Wang Defa's house drank wine with Zhang Daozhu again.
Wang Defa's family asked: "Where will all the felons be sent in the future?" ”
"Yes, we also want to suggest that the Great Song Dynasty, Japan, and Goryeo should also be sent------ of course, we will help with the transfer.
Now is not the time for others to know, let them guess, just say that it is an island of sinners, and no one can escape. ”
After all, Wang Defa's family was a little worried that they would all die there.
The next child of the two is about to be born, and they don't want too many people to die.
The sharpness with which they used to hang the Tatars at every turn is beginning to dwindle, perhaps because of their age.
Zhang Island Master said optimistically: "We gave them rules and production tools, it should be fine, think about it, the Australia of the world, wasn't it also built by criminals first?"
If others can do it, they will do it too! ”
