After Ji Aojian fell into the water, he swam to the river zhongyΔng, flashed the towed steamship, waited for the sailboat to come over, let go for a while, and stuck to the hull from the stern.
At this time, he was already a full foreign master, with strong muscles and bones, a agile body, and superior strength, as long as there was a slight bump in the hull, he could climb like a civet.
Ji Aojian knows the modern sailboat, and the officer quarter is located in the tail. Since guns were placed on all decks along the waterline, the cabins of the ship's important men could only be placed in the stern position.
It was pitch dark outside, and the glow of oil lamps came from the windows of several cabins. Ji Aojian climbed on the outer wall of the stern, and gently looked for it one by one, and really saw the person he wanted to find outside the hall at the stern.
A middle-aged man dressed like a captain with gray hair was laughing and talking to Father Hawkins.
But her ninth sister was locked up in a house, a tightly sealed low wooden house, painted pink, which looked like a toy house. However, through the railing, you can see that there is a bed and a table inside, which is quite suitable for her body type.
Ji Aojian complained in his heart, is this my ninth sister a guest of Lilliputia, it is too fairytale-tale atmosphere.
The two Englishmen kept talking non-stop, Ji Aojian's English listening level in his previous life was good, although he forgot a little after more than half a year, but after listening to it for a while, he understood more and more.
The captain asked, "What's the matter with Vincent's Lion Fist, are you really the same as him?"
Hawkins shook his head, "This is Vincent's own words, his inexplicable lion fist was learned from the locals while fighting lions in India." β
Of course, there were lions in ancient India, which became the content recorded in Buddhist scriptures, and then introduced to China along with Buddhism.
The Indian lion is now known as the Asiatic lion, and the British have been hunting Asiatic lions as a form of entertainment since the mid-18th century when India was colonized. After more than a hundred years of hunting, by the beginning of the twentieth century, the animal was almost extinct.
Vincent was also an officer who liked to hunt Asiatic lions in India, and later got some inspiration from some of the lion-like boxing techniques handed down in ancient India, so he wrote and directed a set of boxing techniques called the Golden Lion Fist.
Ji Aojian listened to it and thought to himself, we in China must understand the principles of boxing and understand the rules of martial arts masters in order to create their own boxing skills. This Vincent clearly does not have such a high level of martial arts attainments, is it designed with the scientific knowledge of mathematics and physics?
The captain laughed, "Among the ascetics in India, some of the yoga and other kung fu seem to be a bit mysterious, but they are not very good. Vincent was really unprofessional to follow the Indians to learn that. β
Ji Aojian was very much in favor of this, India has become your colony, what advanced martial arts can be hidden?
Hawkins said, "He said that there are many schools of martial arts in the Chinese, and if you bring a fist to the past, you can communicate in the name of the same way." And he also called it the Golden Lion Fist, which was created by the Lionheart King. β
The captain laughed for a while, and then said, "Vincent is not stupid, legend has it that King Lionheart killed a lion. If he really makes a name for himself in the East, and accepts a few more disciples to follow him, this lion fist will return to Europe, and maybe he can fool many people. β
Hawkins laughed, too, "It's very likely." β
Ji Aojian is even more in favor, if you want to create a sect, one of the most important skills is to find your own ancestor for yourself. For example, the world uses knives, and the ten people are all looking for the second brother Guan, in fact, this martial saint is more likely to use the same gun lance as other generals at that time. As for those who use swordsmanship, not only can they find Sister Yue as their ancestor, but Sister Yue's swordsmanship can also be learned from a white ape.
There is a great sage gate on the rivers and lakes, and he really recognizes the great sage of Qi Tian as the ancestor. Those who come to learn art really believe in it, and their martial arts colleagues are all tacit.
Chinese pay attention to martial arts for a long time. If Vincent said that this was his own lion fist in India, others would only think of him as a wild man. found King Lionheart to be the patriarch of the founding school, and then took the trouble to tell an anecdote about the patriarch, and people will believe that this is an ancient European boxing method.
Of course, in Ji Aojian's view, it would be better to say that this was the lion fist created by Patriarch Bodhidharma before he went to China, and he could directly establish a relationship with Shaolin Temple, and it would be more convenient to find a loan.
The captain and the priest laughed at each other for a moment, and then the captain asked, "What is the matter with this little girl?"
"Captain, look at her ears, the saints of Avalon are like that. β
Ji Aojian finally remembered that Avalon was not an elven country in the legends of the British?
Could it be that it was a concentrated cultivation place for the Innate Dao Body?
The captain wondered, "Avalon is looking for a successor, how did he find China?"
Hawkins sighed, "Since soot and steam sprayed the blue sky, it is rare to find a descendant of Avalon, not only in England, but also in the whole of Europe." I heard that since the beginning of this century, there have been no new descendants. β
Ji Aojian wondered, what does this mean? Could it be that after the start of the industrial revolution, the environment was polluted and the ecology was destroyed, and there was no longer a congenital Dao body in Europe?
The captain is clearly a supporter of the power of science, "Science changes the world, science creates a better life." Well, Avalon can't find a successor, so what should I do?"
Hawkins replied, "Of course, I went all over the world to find it." β
Ji Aojian heard a little clue at this time, it turned out that the ninth sister was the heir who met Avalon's needs, no wonder Vincent kept saying that she was a saint.
The captain asked, "Priest, you and Vincent are also in charge of finding the heirs of Avalon?"
"Finding a successor to Avalon is also the mission of the Kingdom of Great Britain. Captain, you also have a lot of credit for sending the saint back this time. β
The captain rejoiced, "This is the good fortune you and Vincent have brought to you. β
Hawkins nodded, "Vincent has always been lucky and conscientious. This time we sent the saint away, and he stayed behind to continue collecting information about the Chinese folk gangs. β
Ji Aojian thought, that lucky Mr. Vincent, is now a riverside corpse without a heart.
The captain said, "Vincent is indeed capable, but I still don't understand why your plan is to find the heir of Avalon and leave immediately?"
The priest said, "There is a big man in Suzhou behind this little girl, and he will mobilize his strength to save her, and it will be too late to leave at dawn." β
The captain nodded, "And how exactly did you find out about this Avalonian heir?"
Hawkins said, "We entered the Yangtze River this time, and Vincent has been using his 'Golden Lion Fist' to visit the folk gangs in the coastal cities. Early last month, he met a martial artist in Suzhou who used the Chinese Lion Fist, which seems to be called the Nine Lions. They talked very speculatively, and Vincent asked him about the characteristics of the descendants of Avalon, and the nine lions told Vincent that there was a little girl who seemed to meet his requirements. β
Ji Aojian was stunned, the news of the ninth sister was told by the nine-headed lion Chen Hong to Vincent, these two guys are not simple, when they came to challenge my ninth sister, they pretended not to know each other.
Ninth sister, your cat ears are not very useful, did you fall in the ring before and be seen?
The captain looked at Ji Lingxing, a little disbelieving, "Such a young girl, is she really the heir that Avalon wants?"
Hawkins said, "Captain, to become a descendant of Avalon, the mentality must be far easier for ordinary people. Look at this girl, who was taken away by us, and now she doesn't cry, she doesn't scream, she doesn't make trouble, and she doesn't look stupid at all. β
The captain looked at the girl in the cabin, and there was no fear in his sparkling eyes, but he was looking at him calmly and calmly.
He couldn't help but shudder, "This kid is such a monster. β
Hawkins shook his head, "Captain, this is the Holy Maiden. β
The captain asked, puzzled, "Why does the Kingdom of Britain help Avalon find a successor around the world?"
Hawkins said, "More than 20 years have passed since 1815, and Europe is in turmoil, and the royal families are somewhat unable to suppress it. β
He whispered, "Moreover, the one on St. Helena Island heard that he did not really die, but had fled long ago." β
The captain was taken aback, "Really?"
"Only the saints of Avalon can deal with him," said the priest. But in order for Avalon to be able to make a safe move, they must have a successor first. β
The captain nodded, "I see, it's really important. β
Ji Aojian was strange, why is the word St. Helena so familiar, who is there on it? It sounds like a peerless devil, and the whole of Europe is afraid of him?
He suddenly remembered a historical figure who had swept Europe and the Megatron era just a few decades ago, and his whole body trembled.
