The old man's words moved Wang Wu and them very much.

The old man is not related to them, just because a few of them are from China, because they have reached LV3 and LV4 at a young age, and because they may become useful talents for the motherland in the future, the old man is willing to sacrifice his consciousness to take them away.

Even if they have been far away from their homeland and living in a foreign land, they are willing to contribute.

"You come with me first. The old man couldn't help but say, took Wang Wu's hand and left.

Wang Wu also wanted to see how the Chinese on the island lived, so he followed him.

The most important thing when you travel is not to see the beautiful scenery here, but to communicate with the local people and get to know their culture.

Wang Wu followed the old man to his residence, a dilapidated wooden house with a roof that looked like it was going to leak at any moment.

Such wooden houses were densely piled up in this clearing, and a group of dirty children saw the stranger coming, and hurriedly hid behind the door, peeking at this group of beautiful young ladies through the crack in the door.

After Michelle took out a handful of candy from her bag, the group of children finally stopped being shy and ran out from behind the door, surrounding Michelle to beg for candy.

In addition to children, there are many elderly people who sit on stools and weave straw hats. The beautiful hats in the shopping malls on the island are all made by them.

The old man told Wang Wu that most of the middle-aged men here were carrying at the docks, while the women worked in hotels and restaurants.

Wang Wu lives in a five-star hotel on this island, and all the living facilities are no different from those in the city. In the morning, sunlight pours in through the bright windows, and when you open the doors, you can see the vast sea.

They thought they were living in heaven, but they didn't expect that there would be such a dilapidated place in the shadows of heaven.

"Why did you come to this island?"

Wang Wu saw the quality of life of these Chinese people, and felt very puzzled, no matter how poor he was in China, it was not so miserable!

The old man asked his nephew to arrange the boat, and then sat down and told Wang Wu how their ancestors had come to this island.

It turned out that when the old uncle's grandfather was fifteen years old, he was deceived by foreigners into getting on the ship. The foreigners told him that the West was full of gold, and as long as he signed a contract with them and went to the West to work for three years, he could return to his homeland.

As soon as his grandfather got on board, he was put in the cabin and starved for three days, so that they had no strength to resist.

After that, a large pot was used to boil some gruel for them, but there were no bowls, and everyone squatted next to the cauldron and drank it with their mouths, like feeding pigs.

On the ship, it was as if they were living in hell, and if they resisted, they were severely beaten. Nearly half of them died on the road, and their bodies were thrown into the sea.

Instead of coming to the gold-filled West, the ship carried them to the island and became coolies on the island.

Under the whip of foreigners, they live a life that is inferior to pigs and dogs. Mining and burning bricks, building palaces, and turning a desolate island into a paradise island that is now resplendent and like a paradise on earth.

This is the paradise island they built, but it doesn't belong to them. To their parents, it was more like hell than hell, and the bones buried under the palace were a testament to hell.

The old man said that his grandfather left home at the age of 15 and left his mother, and since then he has not heard from the family. He was in too much of a hurry when he left, so he asked his fellow villagers to leave a word, and then got on the boat and asked his mother to wait for him to return in three years.

Three years later, three years later, until he died of old age, he did not return to the land of his homeland.

His grandfather's greatest regret in his life was that he could not fulfill his filial piety at his mother's bedside.

His grandfather told him that although you are in a foreign country, your heart is a Chinese heart, and no matter what, you must be worthy of your own heart.

The old man's words made Wang Wu and the others silent for a long time, and finally understood why the old man was willing to risk his life and send them away.

They were born on the mainland, but they never thought that there was such a group of compatriots overseas who had such a tragic fate.

"Do you still want to go back now?" Wang Wu asked.

"But if we have the chance, we want to go back and have a look, but still have to go back to live on this island. Our family, friends, lives, and jobs cannot be separated from this island. And when I return to the mainland, I can only be a burden to you. ”

"I'll help you kill that island owner and make you the island owner. Tang Xiaoxian stood up angrily.

Seeing her compatriots being treated like this, she couldn't bear it.

The old man hurriedly stopped Tang Xiaoxian: "I can't help it, the island owner has the strength of LV5, and even if you can defeat the island owner, it will only anger the backers behind him." ”

Wang Wu asked curiously: "Uncle, you just said that the backer behind him is one of the four major families, which one is it?"

"It's the Murong family, the owner of the island is called Johnson, after his grandfather passed the island to him, he took refuge in the Murong family because his strength was not enough to defend the island, and he wanted to pay a tribute to the Murong family every year in exchange for this banner of the Murong family. ”

The old man pointed to the banner with the starry sky and long sword pattern on the island: "Before others want to occupy this island, they must first weigh whether they can withstand the anger of the Murong family. ”

Wang Wu turned around and quietly asked Yimeiren: "Murong family, Xiaobai, that Murong family?"

Yimei pouted: "Since it is the Murong family of the four major families, it must be his family." ”

"It's a pity he didn't come to travel, and if he did, the owner would have to pounce and kneel and lick it. ”

"This is not necessarily, he has been deprived of the inheritance rights by the family, and he can't mobilize any resources in the family, and I heard that even the subordinates in his family don't take him seriously. ”

"It's not easy for Xiaobai!" Wang Wu sighed.

After the group of children finished eating Michelle's candy, they gathered around to eat Michelle and tell stories.

After the old people in the village knew about Wang Wu's affairs, they also brought some pastries from home and warmly entertained them.

After a while, the old man's nephew came back and told them that the boat had been arranged.

"Then don't wait, go to sea right away. The old man took Wang Wu's hand and stood up.

Wang Wu shook his head and said firmly, "No, we decided not to leave. ”

The others were also like Wang Wu, sitting on small stools and not moving.

The old man was about to say something, when a loud voice came from the sky: "Do you think this island is your home, come when you want, and leave when you want?"

The old man raised his head, and his face changed greatly.

I saw a middle-aged man with blond hair standing proudly in the air, looking down at the ground. A suit of clothes is windless and automatic, majestic.

In the distance, numerous convoys outflanked them with guns.

The old man muttered to himself: "He is the owner of the island, Johnson, I didn't expect to find him so soon, we are a step late." ”

"Just in time, let me knock him down. Tang Xiaoxian finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, rose to the sky, and struck Johnson with a palm.

In the mid-19th century, countless compatriots in the coastal areas were deceived or directly caught on ships, and sold to the South Seas to work as coolies like piglets. However, during the Anti-Japanese War, these compatriots abroad still responded positively, donating money and materials for the motherland, and transporting boatloads of grain back to China.

This chapter was written and deleted, and half of the word count had to be deleted ruthlessly because I was not satisfied. Hopefully there will be another chapter in the evening.
