Chapter 58: Pelican Island

Soon the news of leprosy on the island spread, and for a time the whole island was panicked, and many citizens gathered in front of the governor's palace to demand that James find a solution to the problem immediately.

James has been hesitating after listening to the man with glasses, Mathieson woke up from a coma and found that one of his legs was useless, and he was even more furious, although he actually knew very well what was going on with the whole process of chasing the wild boar at that time, shooting the wild boar, and then the wild boar suddenly hit him with a backhand, but the bad news of losing a leg made him lose his mind. The boar had been killed, and he desperately needed someone to vent his anger, and with his men fanning the flames, the anger naturally spilled on my head.

Mattheeson demanded that James immediately try me and hang me, and although James thought it would be a good idea to take the opportunity to get rid of me, he was afraid of leaving someone to talk about me if he dealt with me so hastily, and the sudden leprosy incident made him even more distraught.

According to the glasses man's suggestion, James sent the police to cordon off the Protestants' residence, and spread a thick layer of lime around it, and the nearby residents also moved out, but this was not a cure, James hesitated and finally decided to believe the glasses man's words, and let me go to Pelican Island to find the powder.

Although I think this matter is really a bit nonsense, relying on an unreliable legend and a general direction to look for a needle in a haystack, isn't that just whimsical, but it doesn't seem right to think about it again, where did the glasses man come from on this island? We were all shipwrecked survivors of the Margaret, and there should have been no one on this island except us. The rumors in the mouth of this so-called old man seem to be nonsense from the eyed man nine times out of ten, but why did he do it? Do you really want me to drift adrift on the vast sea and suffer to death? Wouldn't it be easier to directly instigate James to put me on trial? And if you talk about Pelican Island, the powder is all made up, will leprosy also be a cover? I had found out that the man with glasses had a lot to do with the Protestants.

Although I have a stomach full of doubts, it is better to let out the air of freedom than to stay in a cramped cell in the basement of a police station.

Since I was going to sea to look for powder, I proposed to James that I had to bring a few helpers, and James definitely disagreed at first, but I was also very resolute, and if I didn't let me bring helpers, then I would be put back in a prison cell.

After some bargaining, James finally promised me that I could bring up to two helpers, and it couldn't be any of Long Xin'er, Zhou An'an, Su Yuliu, or Lin Ruyi, and after thinking about it, I finally decided to let Uncle Wei and the bearded man go with me.

Although Uncle Wei, an old comrade, is old, he is still immortal when he goes into the water, and although the bearded man is crazy and mentally abnormal, he has been with Uncle Wei for a long time, and now he is obedient to Uncle Wei, and the most important thing is that he used to be a pirate, and he can have more security when he is accompanied by him on the sea. As for Big Bear, I hope he can stay and protect Su Yuliu and them.

Soon James ordered a small sail boat to be prepared, to be honest I really doubt that the broken boat could be overturned directly by a wave, but there was no way that there was only one emergency boat on the island that was slightly larger, and this small boat was only recently launched.

Before leaving, everyone went to the beach to see us off, Su Yuliu and Lin Ruyi's faces were full of worry, An An quietly told me that Grace had written to Duke Jackson for help, I smiled bitterly twice in my heart, and waited for her letter to be delivered to Duke Jackson, and then waited for the Duke to send someone to save me, it is estimated that the daylily is cold, but although I am a little uneasy, my face still shows a very confident look.

I smiled and said to everyone, "Don't worry too much, you should eat and drink during this time, and when I take the powder back, there will be nothing to do." ”

Da Xiong glared and said: "Old Han, don't talk nonsense, what's the bullshit Pelican Island, the glasses man him...", before he finished speaking, Sister Hongmei pinched him on the side and signaled not to say any more, Da Xiong also realized that there were other people around, so he also shut up.

After explaining to the big guy, I walked in front of Long Xin'er again, although we are not husband and wife, but we also have the name of husband and wife, and at present, she has not done anything too much to me. I said, "The future is treacherous, and you have to take care of yourself on the island, especially the Mathiessen grandson." ”

Long Xin'er nodded and said, "You also have to be careful, if you really can't find the powder, come back, no matter how others frame you, we will face it together." ”

I don't know why, Long Xin'er's attitude was very sincere when she said this, so I was still a little moved when I heard it, this girl will not fall in love for a long time, and she really likes me under my strong personality charm. I asked again, "Are you telling the truth?" ”

Long Xin'er said quietly: "When the fake is true, it is true, and when it is true, it is also true." ”

What should have been said has been almost said, Uncle Wei and I, the bearded man was about to board the ship and leave, at this time Rockefeller didn't know where to hurry over, and a simple send-off was endless.

Rockefeller pulled me aside and whispered, "Manager, you can take the opportunity to go to the Golden Islands." As he spoke, he quietly stuffed me with a piece of paper, "This is the approximate location map of the Golden Islands that I drawn, although there may be some errors, but I collected all kinds of information before coming to Paradise Island, and I should be able to find it." ”

James and the others watched me say goodbye to different people wave after wave from a distance, and he urged me: "Don't hurry up and go, what so much nonsense to talk about." ”

After putting away the note, I slowly left Paradise Island by boat under the gaze of everyone.

The bearded man was very excited as soon as he got on the boat, and he was familiar with controlling the sails, while Uncle Wei and I leaned in the cabin to discuss what to do next.

Before leaving, I had already told everyone about my suspicions about the man with glasses, and Uncle Wei also agreed with my guess. He said: "The so-called Pelican Island, the so-called fans must be fake, and the purpose of the person surnamed Yang is also difficult to guess, we actually have no goal at all now, although we can go around the nearby sea for a few days and then go back and find Pelican Island, but in that case you may have to be locked up again." ”

I took out the map that Rockefel had given me and said, "Why don't we just go to the Golden Islands?" ”

Uncle Wei looked at the map and frowned and said, "It's okay to go and have a look, but I'm afraid our ship and the supplies carried on the ship can't go that far, right?" ”

I said, "How do you know if it's going to work if you don't try, and I think there should be some small islands along the way, and we can dock over and replenish some water and food on the islands." As for the powder, I thought it would not work, we would just grab the soil and go back and say it was powder, anyway, if the so-called leprosy is made up by the man with glasses, it doesn't matter if the powder is real or not. ”

I chatted with Uncle Wei one by one, completely forgetting that at this time, the sea breeze was strong and the sails were agitating, and the boat was moving quickly on the sea under the control of the bearded, and before I knew it, I had gone far away.
