Chapter 148 Don't Listen to Your Mother
I saw that the sun was not seen, and the wind and clouds were still as still. Only the flying bird proved that the scenery in front of me was alive.
This time, everyone stared at the bird and watched it fly to the island, with its gray back, black wing tips, yellow mouth and feet, and black and red markings on the tip of the mouth...
Even it resonates its wings several times and remembers it well in your mind.
"Rise the anchor! Try again!" Xiaobao ordered.
no.
Still can't move forward.
The sun jumped out of the crystal amber silently, the sky became brighter and brighter, and the dirty cotton-like clouds gradually became white.
The island in the south is no longer a silhouette-like existence. People see that the clouds are floating on the island, as if they are about to turn into snow-capped mountains, and as if they are covered with cotton blankets.
Xiaobao lowered his head in frustration.
Now, it is time to order the return flight. No matter how unwilling you are, you have to worry about the freshwater and food stock on the ship. People must first ensure their survival.
He raised his hand and Xiaobao was about to give orders when suddenly, a gust of wind blew his fingertips, and then a warm and cool feeling on his cheeks - is it wind blowing?
Xiaobao looked up suddenly and found that the sun's light began to shine, no longer just the yellowish ball before; but the clouds also moved, they chased each other, the little clouds gathered, and the big clouds became thinner.
The clouds seemed to slowly leave the island and run in their direction.
As if his thoughts were moved, Xiaobao raised his hand a little: "Continue to move forward!"
"It's moving!"
"Hey hey hey hey hey~ we can move forward!"
"Absolutely moving forward, do you feel it?"
“Yes, yes, I feel it!”
"Battle*, fight quickly! Let the boat go faster!"
Soon, the fleet arrived at the island, and the island scenery remained the same. Xiaobao blew the bone whistle hard.
The "Come on" response sounded in the sky. Soon, a small black dot quickly became larger and swooped straight down.
"Come on" flew up again the moment he was about to touch Xiaobao's head, dived again, and repeated several times to express the joy in his heart.
Xiaobao didn't have much time to play with it, so he hurriedly asked it to fly back and ask someone to unload the goods on the ship.
We must first inform you so many people will not come to the island and cause bombardment by "friendly forces".
This time, Jia Yanyao, the former leader of the Salt Gang, brought a lot of people to the island with Xiaobao. He planned not to go back to Daxuan and would be on the island for the rest of his life.
This time, the Qing Dynasty expedition movement not only caused the officials to suffer, but also the ones who helped officials do "black work" were in trouble.
Officials are liquidated and must not be given evidence of their crimes. If the new officials take over the positions of these officials, they will naturally spare no effort to eradicate the "cancers" left by their predecessors.
In this way, even if Jia Yanyao and others use money to buy their lives, it won’t work.
Those who can still stay in the mainland of Daxuan, like Jia Yanyao, naturally have a lot of wives, children and relatives. One pillar fell down, and the whole family couldn't survive.
What's more, there are many brothers under his command, and their wives, children, and the lives of hundreds of people were blocked in a moment.
Everyone was in panic all day long, and hiding everywhere was not a solution. In the end, they had to send a message to Xiaobao and ask him to think about it.
Xiaobao was colonizing my world island. He needed enough population to avoid threats from indigenous people, so he was directly brought to the island.
Soon, the boys from the "Federation" drove a few ox carts and people were pulling human trailers, and a large group of people came to greet them.
Everyone gathered together, although they were very happy, their faces were filled with sorrow.
Everyone sat around inside and outside, waiting for breakfast to be cooked, while reporting the recent situation to Xiaobao—
"If we talk about earth moving, it is not entirely moving. We feel that we are moving everywhere, but we ourselves are very difficult to move."
"Yes, it's almost twenty days to say this, it's so uncomfortable!"
"I just feel like a dying old man. No matter what I do, I can't use my strength, and my legs tremble even when I walk!"
...
Everyone rushed to say one by one, but it was really unruly. Xiaobao had to raise his hand to stop everyone's words and ask Chao Liu and Li Hu: "What's going on?"
Chao Liu said, "After you left, brothers came to the island one after another, saying that they had returned from the Kingdom of Vos and brought a large amount of goods. This was a happy thing;
But for some reason, as waves of people came to the island, we found that the action became slow from time to time, just like this..."
Chao Liu raised his hand to slap the sand on his legs: "Look, this is a normal action, but it gradually became like this... and then it became like this..."
Chao Liu's slapping movements gradually slowed down, and later it was like slow motion.
Li Hu added at this time: "This situation lasted for three days and ended. At first, he thought that the food was not processed completely and that some poison had caused hallucinations;
For this reason, I also specially checked the stored grain, including sweet potatoes, but found nothing, so we didn't take it seriously;
A few days later, Senior Brother Chao said that there are many trees on the island, so there is no need to waste, and it is time to make some big ships. With more people, it is more convenient to explore the island, so he divided the manpower, part of the island, part of the shipbuilding..."
Chao Liu answered the words at this time: "On the day we started cutting trees, some locals came over and said in a striking manner that several pregnant women in their place were about to die, so please think of a solution;
We rushed over to check it out, it was strange! The pregnant women were also slow to move, not because they were heavy, but just like us, they thought quickly but couldn't get up;
Li Hu helped to take the pulse, but found that their pulse was slow and heavy, and he thought it was very likely that the fetus would be suffocated to death;
Just as we were trying to solve the problem, the people in that village began to become slow to move, just like we did before;
What’s even more terrifying is that in less than a cup of tea, we all became so slow.”
It was as if she was afraid that Xiaobao would not understand. When Chao Liuzheng gestured to tell the story, Xiaobao's scalp was itchy, and he raised his hand and scratched it, and then...
He found that his actions began to slow down!
Not only that, Xiaobao found that the steam on the pot of cooking meat porridge seemed to dissipate much slower, and the flames in the stove also swayed slowly.
"It's over, it's coming again!" Chao Liu said.
Even this sentence was lengthened, as if he deliberately slowed down his speech.
Xiaobao looked up at the sky, and the figure of "Come on" seemed to be condensed in the air. The golden eagle soared and would always move, but if you don't look carefully at this time, you can't tell it to move.
Xiaobao lowered his head slowly. He wanted to be fast, but he just couldn't.
There were a lot of complaints around me, "Here's coming again!" and "What's wrong with me?", all of which were slow.
The person who said "coming again" was naturally the person who had been on the island and asked "What's wrong with me?", who just came to the island today.
A strange feeling arose in Xiaobao's heart.
