Chapter 35 A strong smell of crossing
ps: The chapter promised last night was written this morning
After patiently listening to the old man Clément, Christina put down her gun, but her expression was still as cold as before: "What a pale word, he has no convincing power for me. Hmph, do you cowards only use God's will to escape your cowardice? In my education, I only know that God loves the world, and He will test you, but He will not make you despair. Even if he closes the door for you, he will open a window. ”
"Perhaps. The old man Clement showed a look of reminiscence, as if he remembered when he was young, "But people, as long as you get older, all the passion you once had is gone, and when I was young, I also thought about it like you, thinking that as long as I rely on my own hands, everything that is unsatisfactory can be changed." ”
"I'll keep believing it, maybe I've wavered, but I won't keep shaking. Christina quietly took the bread. She really hadn't eaten in a long time, and the wound on her lower abdomen was in desperate need of nourishment to recover.
"Really?" "Really?" Old Man Clément's eyes were not sharp, but they seemed to see through it, "Kid, you thought you could help Edward unite Capet and Caledonia, right?"
"That's right. Christina snorted, "What's wrong with that?"
"But your goal has become to assassinate Henry......" Old Man Clément shook his head.
"It's not a contradiction, kill him and Galedonia will win. Christina didn't hesitate, or rather, she didn't hesitate, "It's a means to an end, not an end in itself." ”
"Well, if that's what you say, why are you now in Masaac again, and what do you want to do? The only similarity between these things is what they want to change......" The old man Clément said with vicissitudes in his tone, "Child, what have you encountered that made you so persistent? Surely something must have happened to you, right? Tell me, maybe someone else will help you. ”
"Help me, don't say such ridiculous things. Christina turned, "Don't think that if I don't kill you here, it means I'm ready to give up." I just don't bother to kill you to prove anything. But you're going to me off, don't blame me for killing the killer. You see, when a man is killed, he dies. I have this gun in my hand, but I have seen blood. (ps: I laughed when I wrote this, I don't understand the children's shoes of the stalk "if people are killed, they will die", you can go to Baidu)
"But I think it's only stubborn, not murderous. I don't think this gun has ever ended anyone's life. Old man Clément seemed to observe the rifle in Christina's hand for a moment before he concluded, "This gun has indeed not killed anyone." ”
"That's exactly what happened. Saints also have times when they are wrong. To hell with your rotten thoughts, I'm not going to listen to you. Father, you should not say this to a person who has made up his mind to go to hell after death, save your energy and enlighten those who are still saved. I'm sorry, but I have a reason why I have to do it. With that, Christina turned and walked away.
"What a poor little girl. Old Man Clement sighed, "It may seem so cruel, but in some ways it is surprisingly gentle. Alas, but I alone can't persuade her. ”
After sitting here again and resting for a while, the old man Clement got up and walked in the direction of the port of Masaak.
The old man's instincts, or something more mysterious, were really accurate, Christina's gun, which had so far sent bullets into the chests of two men, neither of them had died.
Feng Ming was rescued in the end, and he didn't hang up because of infection or any reason, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. After all, no one wants to see the most important port of the Capetian kingdom leading to the Central Sea reduced to ashes.
The strength of the Cyris's fleet was beyond the expectations of all Eugenians of this era. Needless to say, with the cannons on those 4,000-ton "giant ships", the facilities on the port can be destroyed, which is simply a catastrophe for Capet, who is in urgent need of imported supplies.
Although Feng Ming is still not lightly injured, as long as his life is saved, there will be no diplomatic problems.
He was finally placed in a recuperation hall in the harbor, with some attendants he brought with him to take care of him. Although they are all big men, Sinan Pei found that no matter in any time and space, whether in the East or the West, there seems to be a saying that it is unlucky to bring women on board? No wonder people say that there are a lot of sailors who are engaged in the foundation...... However, Sinan Pei is not so bored as to maliciously speculate about this unjustified Feng brother.
The Seris fleet sent an envoy ashore again to discuss the future arrival of the fleet and trade, but what Sinampe did not expect was that the plan proposed by these "fellow villagers" was like this...... Well, it's so remarkable. They didn't use these two vicious incidents to blackmail anything, but their fan who wanted to loot all the gold, silver and copper from other people's homes was too much like the little brother of the traverser.
But also, there is such a large batch of goods to be processed, only a fool would choose an opening that is not good for anyone.
And what they sold made Sinan Pei feel a pain in the face. It seems that Tetsu-sama Kawagoe's wishful thinking is about to fall through completely.
A middle-aged fat man with a big belly greeted Si Nanpei with a smile: "That, uncle, you should have experienced the lack of gold, silver and bronze in the Central Plains for so many years, right? We want to use some glass and soap...... Oh, just some new cheeks, and some new little things, even muskets and cannons to exchange for some precious metals...... Well, you need gold, silver, and bronze. The new court continued to mint coinage. ”
Sinampei's face collapsed in an instant. This profiteer, who treats everyone else as a fool! That Kawagoe Tetsu Commander also has the fan of Long Aotian, did he bring it over with him, or did he write it himself? Want to make me cheap like this? No way!
"I'm really sorry, this brother, didn't you inquire before you left, these things have been available in Eugenia for a long time?" Sinanpei put on a sympathetic look, "It's not a rare thing for a long time, you want to exchange these things for gold? I'm afraid that even the smallest ship can't be stuffed...... It's disrespectful to say that, but I suspect that Chuan Gong didn't learn these techniques from Eugenia......"
