Chapter 693: Intelligence from Far Away People.....
"Met a living person so soon?"
In the cabin, Li Goudan and his gang looked at Henry who was wrapped in a towel on the ship with a curious face, and then looked at the testers on the side suspiciously: "Didn't you say that there is no one on this route for thousands of nautical miles?" ”
The testers were also puzzled, although this data was more hypothetical, but it was based on the historical records of the Gangwu Empire for thousands of years.
After all, since it was discovered on the east coast, it has never encountered anyone from overseas, whether it is pirates or passing by, and the fishermen who have lived here have never met anyone from overseas for thousands of years.
And although Henry's clothes were a little tattered at this time, he could vaguely see that this dress was of good quality, it was a noble silk work, and if the island country with this kind of civilization was nearby, it would be impossible for thousands of years to not notice the largest land in the Eastern Continent, right?
"Isn't he looking very good, is he fed?" Li Goudan asked.
Feeding.....
Lei Xue next to her face twitched, feeling that this was a bit like picking up a dog.....
Wang Ye, the first mate in the shape of a poke ball on the side, replied: "He is not in a very good state, at least he has not ingested food and water for more than ten days, and he can't be given food immediately in this situation, so we gave him a small bottle of mild nutrients...."
"Wow rub, can you live for ten days without drinking water? Yes! Dogan looked at each other and said.
Looking at Henry, who looked at him like a strange thing, he was quite uncomfortable at this time, but fortunately, the girl at the head looked so beautiful, she shouldn't be a bad person.....
After relieving himself, he began to vaguely remember what he had experienced these days......
Since the last time he abandoned the crew and ran away alone, he had been adrift at sea alone on the wooden boat for an unknown number of days, because by the end of the day he was almost so hungry and thirsty that he hallucinated, so naturally he was not in the mood to remember the day.....
But he was indeed lucky, he had not encountered a big wave in the vast sea for so many days, or he would have hit the street with that wooden boat.
After many days, he saw the Dog Egg moored in the sea, and he swore that he had never seen such a strange ship in his life!
The whole hull is like a steel castle, what technology is used to make such a large ship? And the steel shipbuilding alone shocked him a lot!
Since the advent of steam-powered ships, some alchemists have whimsically tried to build hulls out of steel, but this idea has failed after many experiments.
Because there are many problems, first of all, steel materials are easy to rust. Secondly, the long sailing time makes it easy for oysters and other parasites to attach to the bottom of the ship, which affects the speed of the ship. Third, if a large number of steel materials are used on the ship, it is easy to produce a magnetic field effect, which will affect the accuracy of the magnetic compass. Finally, the heavy use of steel materials can lead to a cold and humid air inside the ship, which is not conducive to keeping warm and the health of the crew.
The Holmston Kingdom, which is the most proficient in shipbuilding in the Western Islands, has not solved anything, why is there such an exaggerated steel ship in the East China Sea region?
Even more strange was the dynamics of the ship, he clearly remembered that the ship was completely moored when he first saw it that day....
This is the deep sea area, how can you park a ship where there is no anchor?
It was night again, and it was suddenly strange to see such a big ship standing upright on the surface of the sea like this, but Henry's state at that time was abnormal.
Hungry and cold, he was like grasping the last straw when he saw this ship, and at that time he thought in his heart that even if it was a ghost ship, he would admit it, as long as he could give him a sip of fresh water to drink!!
But the situation depended on the situation, and when he drank the nutrient solution and solved the instinct of the body's craving, the rest of the worry began.
But fortunately, the people on this ship seem to be relatively normal, and the surrounding temperature is also normal, so it shouldn't be a ghost ship or anything like that.
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly saw a creature covered in earthy yellow with two huge fangs walking over with a glass bottle filled with green potion: "The medicine is ready.....
"Wow... Wow wow wow..... What the hell is this? Henry was so frightened that he shrank down against the wall!
The person who came was the troll Perkins, seeing the other party's reaction, the troll, who had a fairly gentle face, suddenly became gloomy, and glared at the other party unkindly and raised his middle finger: "You are a ghost!" ”
This lingua franca with a strong local flavor stunned Henry, and a wave of strangeness welled up in the panic.
Does this monster speak lingua franca?
After all, they were still communicating in Sichuan just now.....
"Don't be afraid, this is the doctor on our ship....." Lei Xue said softly and comfortingly.
"Doctor? A doctor with the teeth of a wild boar? Henry, who was still out of control, subconsciously retorted.
"Do you believe that this pair of wild boar teeth can pierce your ** right away?" Perkins' tone grew more and more unkind.
"Okay....." Lei Xue sighed helplessly and comforted: "Outsiders haven't seen you yet, don't bother with him, isn't John looking for you to play billiards?" Let's go over there and play first, and we'll explain it here....."
"Humph!" Perkins snorted dissatisfied, handed the potion to Lei Xue and left in a huff.
"Where are you from?" This time it was Li Goudan who was questioned.
Seeing the ugly monster leaving, and the beautiful girl questioning, Henry's frightened mood suddenly eased, and then began to enter normal communication under the guidance of everyone.
An hour later, Henry gave a general description of his situation, and explained the purpose of coming here from his identity, but in order to improve his image, some places were omitted and some places were directly deleted.
For example, he was a down-and-out royal family who couldn't get along, and he modified it slightly, becoming a young and promising royal family, leaving behind his beautiful wife and children, and resolutely joined this expedition.
Of course, the previous encounter with the undead ship and the abandonment of the crew was directly mentioned by him as a shipwreck.....
"So you're a royal in the Western Islands?" Li Goudan asked in surprise.
Of course, she was pleasantly surprised not by the other party's royal status, but by the fact that the other party came from the Western Islands, which means that the other party has a hot and fresh route, and this mission may be completed much earlier!!
"So, the countries of the Western Islands thought that the Gangwu Empire had a coup d'état and blocked the ports of the West Sea, so they organized to open new routes to explore intelligence?" On the side, Lei Xue asked after roughly sorting out the other party's words, compared to Li Goudan's surprise, Lei Xue was much calmer, and was a little suspicious of the other party's information.
Henry nodded cautiously, wanting to see the other party's attitude, at this time he named himself a very important person in the Western Islands not only to brag, but more importantly, to make the other party jealous and courteous because of his identity, so that even if outsiders are not welcome to them, at least he will regard him as a more advantageous weight, and will consider trading back instead of then cutting and throwing it into the sea to feed the fish.
Of course, the purpose of saying this is to get information as soon as possible, because judging from the attitude of these people, it seems to be quite friendly.... Although that monster was quite scary just now....
"With such a great ship and such a beautiful appearance, you must be a nobleman of noble status, right?" Henry cautiously looked at Li Goudan and asked, "May I ask what happened on the side of the Gangwu Empire?" Why the seizure of our ships? Was there really a coup d'état? Or is it something else? ”
As soon as he heard that the other party thought of himself as a nobleman with a noble status, Li Goudan suddenly straightened his back, and then said seriously: "Hmm..... You guessed it right!! ”
If Wang Goudan is here, he must be able to see that someone's fooling Dafa is about to start again!
