Chapter 506: What Are You Talking About?
After a few days of refreshing,
[We finally arrived at the crater.] 】
[It's as desolate as the last time I left.] 】
[I left the wound of war on it, and took my brother and sister and slid down the steep slope. 】
[My sister is very happy, I think it's fun, there are few stones here, it won't be awkward, and the three of us don't have the slightest skill to slide to the end. 】
[When I got to the bottom of the crater, I took out digging tools such as pickaxes and shovels. 】
[I dig the soil, my brother shovels the soil with a shovel, and my sister tries her luck nearby with a small shovel. 】
[This is my first treasure hunt, there is a strange thrill, not as bloody as the battle, but meticulous, with an unusually sense of anticipation. 】
[I'm even more looking forward to it, if I don't find the root of the starry sky, maybe I can find a second devil crystal.] 】
But we also have small troubles. 】
[At the bottom of the crater, the soil shoveled out always slowly rolls down with the vibration of our movements, so we have to do it all over again, which consumes a lot of physical strength. 】
[The place I dug is the same place where I found the Devil's Crystal last time.] 】
[We forgot to sleep and eat, and our dirty clothes were soaked with sweat. 】
[The scorching sun in the sky seems to roast us, especially in the pit, where the temperature is unusually high. 】
[I took out the water and gave it to my brother and sister. 】
[After drinking, my sister, who lost her initial freshness, said: Fearless Pioneer, when will we find the root of the starry sky?] 】
[I lied to her: maybe today.] 】
[My sister smiled: Okay.] 】
[My brother smiled bitterly.] 】
[He probably guessed that this kind of excavation work is headless.] 】
[The truth is just as he had guessed, until the starry sky twinkles, and they are connected in patches, shimmering with patina and purple glow.] 】
[The night in the Blood Wasteland is cold. 】
[I took out the blanket and laid it out for my sister so that she could sleep first.] 】
[Just as I was laying out the blanket, I suddenly noticed that a corner of something was peeking out of the soil here. 】
[Curious, I picked up the small shovel discarded by my sister next to me and carefully dug it out. 】
[The brother and sister were already very sleepy, but they endured the sleepiness and stared intently at the side, looking forward to the moment when a miracle happened. 】
[However, the things in the soil disappointed the three of us. 】
[The goblin once described to me what the Root of the Starry Sky looked like: shimmering with patina and purple. 】
[But at this time, the things in my hands look gray and abrupt, but they have a metallic texture. It is spiral-shaped, but covered with honeycomb-shaped grooves. 】
[This is an object that seems to be both natural and artificial. 】
[My sister asked expectantly: Fearless Pioneer, is this the root of the starry sky? 】
[I said, "Son, this is obviously not.] 】
[The brother and sister are exhausted by the treasure hunt, and they are no longer interested. I want to throw this thing away. 】
At this time, Zhao Chuanxin's heart moved, and he used the "key" to teleport the thing out.
He looked at it with the spiral and thought that there must be no such thing on Earth.
Put it in the secret realm and take it to Benjamin Goldberg or Nikola Tesla to study.
Idle and idle.
[I laid out the blanket and let my sister sleep first.] 】
[I'm not sleepy yet, I dig indiscriminately on the ground with a small shovel until my eyelids fight, and I get nothing. 】
Zhao Chuanxin put away the "Old God Codex" and waited to refresh his physical strength.
Claris is a big woman, to what extent?
Zhao Chuanxin had been holding the "Old God Codex" for many days, but she didn't notice that there was not a word on the book.
Seeing that Zhao Chuanxin was neither running in nor reading, she proposed: "Let's go to the deck for a walk." ”
Zhao Chuanxin nodded in the style of a sage: "Okay." ”
Leaving Central America, the weather gradually cooled down as the ship sailed northwest, and the rain gradually stopped.
The sea is calm, and there are no more seabirds hovering because there are no islands here.
Rare purity.
Claris stretched out her arms and tilted her head slightly, as if embracing the sparkling sea.
If there is no one on the side, it is a good match for Zhao Chuanxin, which provokes the noblely dressed white woman next to her to point her fingers and criticize, squinting her eyes from time to time, covering her mouth and snickering.
Usually at this time, someone's reputation will be ruined.
Claris may have seen it, too, but she didn't care.
Zhao Chuanxin leaned his back against the railing, supported by his elbows. Very pleasant.
I heard two white men talking next to me.
One of them was tall and thin, with a straight back, a straight suit, and two despicable mustaches on his lips, and a very arrogant appearance.
As soon as he spoke, he spoke in a London accent: "Yes, Monsieur Fuller, I am the steward of the Marquis de Laurne. ”
The other William Hu is obviously American, which can be distinguished from the temperament and even more obvious from the accent.
He said in a rough voice, "Mr. Eliot, what are you doing in the East?" ”
"I'm going to inspect the estate of the Marquis de Laurena, the British Fortune Company, you know?"
The American said: "You know, I have heard, the British Fu Company only invested 20,000 pounds, but in 1898, after China signed the Shanxi and Henan mining agreements, the stock price shone and more than fivefold." I heard that there was also a hairstyle of Shanxi stocks, worth 1.2 million pounds, which is really remarkable. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Chuanxin frowned.
The Englishman raised his head with a stinky fart: "Naturally, it is remarkable, the Marquis of Laurena's vision is very accurate." Italy's Prime Minister, Rodney, of course, has the same vision as our marquis. ”
Because Italian Prime Minister Rodney was also involved in the investment.
Plus the British Lautch.
This is also a big battle in Europe.
Therefore, a shell company registered with 20,000 pounds can make money in China, so that the local yamen has no choice.
Zhao Chuanxin snorted lightly with his nose.
It's not loud, it's not loud.
But at this time, the wind and waves were calm, and it happened that the two sides were not far away, and they were actually heard by the British.
He glared at Zhao Chuanxin unhappily: "What? Are you not convinced? ”
The British are proud and have no room for sand in their eyes.
"yes." Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth: "I'm very unconvinced. ”
The British frowned: "What do you know as an Asian?" ”
Zhao Chuanxin raised his eyebrows: "You can boast about a lowly British, isn't it normal for a well-informed Asian to say a few words?" ”
The British jumped on the feet: "Who do you say is low?" ”
Zhao Chuanxin was very unbeaten: "What are you talking about?" ”
The Briton pointed at Zhao Chuanxin: "Try another sentence?" ”
"Try it, try it, say what are you? Say what's wrong with you? Say what's wrong with you? ”
"......" Obviously, the British thought that the value of force was far inferior to Zhao Chuanxin.
Outsiders provoke and taunt opponents, and that is a genetic skill.
He was really angry, pointed at Zhao Chuanxin and said angrily: "You wait, you wait......"
"OK, go call someone, whoever doesn't come will have a grandson."
The British turned around and left.
Seeing this, the Americans said to Zhao Chuanxin: "Asians, you are in trouble. His name was Henry Eliot, and he was the butler of the Marquis of Lauron, the son-in-law of the Queen of England. He's someone you can't afford to mess with. ”
This is not persuasion at all, but more like wanting to see Zhao Chuanxin's panicked reaction after hearing this series of names.
Who knew that Zhao Chuanxin's face was as usual: "He just committed adultery with the daughter of the Empress of England, and he cares about my bird affairs?" ”
American: "......"
was choked, and the Americans did not leave, but pointed at Zhao Chuanxin and said: "If you have this attitude, then no one can save you." ”
Zhao Chuanxin pouted: "The horse's fart and the horse's basket are on you, and no one is there, who are you cheering for?" ”
"You ......"
The Americans are angry.
The suit on his body is made of exquisite fabrics and is well-cut, and he is obviously not an ordinary person.
He stopped talking, took a deep breath, pretended to be calm and relaxed, and waited to see Zhao Chuanxin make a fool of himself later.
A short time later, Henry Eliot came with two sturdy crew members.
Although it is strong, it depends on who you compare with.
At this time, Zhao Chuanxin was wearing a short T, and his exposed arms were tightly stretched on the cuffs.
One head taller than two crew members.
But the crew is all white, and that's their confidence.
Henry Eliot pointed to Zhao Chuanxin and said: "It's him, this person is so arrogant, insulted Britain, locked him up, and waited until Hawaii to hand him over to the local police." ”
The two crew members walked over like dogs, with tiger faces: "Come with us." ”
Zhao Chuanxin didn't move, and asked, "Are you police?" ”
The two crew members shook their heads.
"You're still in the U.S. Navy?"
Keep shaking your head.
"It's not, it's not, you have the power of Nima to imprison me?" Zhao Chuanxin sneered.
Claris next to him was a little nervous, but not much.
He didn't think that anyone on this steamer could compete with Zhao Chuan's salary.
So she interjected and said, "That is, we haven't broken the law, so why should we arrest people?" ”
The two crew members were a little annoyed and angry at the crowd.
One of them said, "It doesn't matter what law you have, on this ship, we represent the law, and I advise you to come with us obediently." ”
On the sea, killing people and sinking into the sea is a normal thing.
There have been many horrific things happening on the sea.
Zhao Chuanxin shook his head: "Don't go." ”
The American was waiting to see Zhao Chuanxin's joke on the side, and then said again: "I advise you to go with them, these seafarers have been working at sea for a long time, and their tempers are extremely irritable, you see their faces are so red, they must have just finished drinking and can't control their emotions." ”
Zhao Chuanxin nodded: "Well, next time, next time, next time." ”
American: "......"
Henry Eliot was very impatient when he saw them here, and shouted: "Hurry up and arrest him, remember not to let Asians appear on deck in the future, I am really disappointed in your American merchant ships, there ......is no dignity and inferiority order at all."
Zhao Chuanxin's eyes narrowed: "What a guts!" ”
It was supposed to tease the fool.
I didn't expect this product to be so rampant.
He stepped forward and grabbed Henry Eliot by the throat.
With only one arm, he lifted Henry Eliot up.
Looking around at the lively tourists, I can't help but be shocked.
The two crew members were shocked: "Drop Mr. Elliot." ”
As he spoke, he was about to come forward to attack Zhao Chuanxin.
