Chapter 274 50. Dead Rot
"Of course, let alone going to the North. If you want to travel around the world, it won't be a problem. Just feed her coal and let me board the captain's cabin. You can go anywhere you want."
After hearing his words, Fisher took a look at the old man in front of him, and saw that this old man who came from an unknown country but could speak fluent Nali was covered in thick dirt. It sounded like he was A very experienced captain, but now the only thing in his body that can support his words is the golden compass on his chest that is covered with Narli's peak sailing achievements.
"Are you not from Nali?"
"I am half a Nali person. I worked for a development company in Nali decades ago. At that time, companies in Nali were eager to go overseas to make huge profits, but the people in Nali were still there. Wait and see, no mother or wife in any family wants their son and husband to wander on the sea with endless sight."
As he spoke, Jesse took another sip of the wine in the flask. The pungent smell of alcohol made his already wrinkled brows wrinkle again, turning into a series of horizontal lines.
"So, out of desperation, the Nali Development Company at that time hired many poor and desperate Nali and foreigners as sailors to transport goods, helping the Nali Company to continuously make profits from overseas."
In fact, Jesse is right. In the early days of Nali's development, the legendary pioneer Captain Blake had opened up the connection between Nali and overseas, allowing many people in the Western Continent to know for the first time that there were other overseas countries. A continent and countless islands.
But it still takes time to change from the original traditional and conservative concepts to today's pioneering enthusiasm. In the decades since Blake's return, except for a few desperate and adventurous entrepreneurs and navigators who followed Blake's footsteps to explore, the rest Most people still have a wait-and-see attitude towards this, and of course they are unwilling to send their children and husbands on the ship.
At that time, the pioneering company was looking forward to recruiting sailors and navigators in Saint-Nary. As a result, they recruited either desperate gamblers with a lot of debt, or homeless homeless people with nothing.
As a last resort, because there were too many people to recruit, the company had to lower its standards and began to recruit foreigners as its employees.
But the problem is that even if the development company had to recruit foreigners as employees at that time, most of their positions were sailors, and the development company would not give the most important position of captain to a foreigner.
The Jesse in front of him has black eyes and hair, and his face is much softer than that of the Nali people. He is obviously a Kadu person.
"I know what happened during that time, but I don't believe they would hand over the captain's position to a foreign Kadu."
Jesse blinked and subconsciously rubbed the compass on his chest with his palm. After a second's pause, he raised the flask in his hand and took a sip of strong drink. When the strong drink was in his stomach, his face turned a little rosy again. After they were separated, he continued to speak,
"I am the most special one. You don't know that only in my hands can the Feiyu show its true potential. She is like my wife. Not everyone can be attracted by the beautiful Nali Development Company." Thanks to my skills, let me help them transport some goods from the Southern Continent back to the Western Continent."
"I'm ashamed to say that when I was young, I used to idolize the 'original pioneer' Captain Blake. Like him, I loved sailing, the endless sea and the beautiful stories like songs. I joined the Nali Development Company. It’s also to have such a life.”
"I worked for the Nali Development Company for many years. As a captain, of course I don't care what the goods I transport are every time, even if they are living people. That's right, I The shipments for the Nali Development Company were the natives of the Southern Continent who were sold to Nali one by one."
"At first I didn't care. They stayed in the cargo hold at the bottom of the Flying Fish, where they took care of all activities of excretion, eating and sleeping. It wasn't until one time when a wailing sound came from inside the ship that I couldn't bear it. Go to the bottom of the ship and see what’s going on there.”
When he said this, Jesse seemed to recall some scene that made him very painful. He lowered his head uncomfortably, burying his face in ragged clothes, and even his voice trembled.
"There is a disease on the Flying Fish. It may be caused by the 'cargo' staying on the ship for too long, or it may be brought by them. In any case, in the end, the natives were infected with [Death Rot], and their The body was riddled with holes, and the pain and blood spread throughout the warehouse. There is obviously an antidote to the disease, but where did the medicine come from on the Feiyu at that time?"
[Death rot] is a very large infectious disease that ravaged Swali hundreds of years ago. The initial symptoms are fever, limb weakness and muscle pain. If not treated after this period, famous growths will appear on the surface of the body. It is a large pustule called "death rot". At that time, the entire human body will swell to a full circle, exuding a strong stench of death. The infected person will die soon, hence the name "death rot".
The outbreak of the death rot coincided with the Shivali Sun Knights' massive attack on Narli. It was precisely because of the sudden outbreak of the death rot in the rear that the peace talks with the Gedelin royal family were initiated.
If not for the sudden outbreak of dead rot, it is still unclear whether Nali would exist now. It can be said that this horrific epidemic that spread throughout the Western Continent saved Nali, but it cast a shadow on Swali, the Kingdom of the Sun. A shadow of fear.
Its wide spread range and powerful lethality far surpassed any existing weapons. The record of its farthest spread even reached the Sardinian Kingdom at the southern end of the northern border, causing quite a sensation in the northern border.
But just when the death rot was about to completely defeat Swali, a little-known doctor Tolga developed an antidote from long-term field observations. It was a special solution extracted from natural herbs. Medicine, taken in the early stages of infection with dead rot, can make the disease better. Moreover, the cost of making medicine is low, and it does not require complicated extraction techniques to make it successfully.
This medicine that saved Shivali and even the Western Continent was named [Tolga Antiseptic]. No one knows how the unknown doctor Tolga came up with the idea of making such a magical medicine. , but people have not yet clearly explained the effectiveness of Tolga Antiseptic, because they have not been able to extract the truly effective medicinal content from it.
In this way, the dead rot disease was defeated by humans and gradually disappeared in the Western Continent. To this day, only a historical record about that period is left. Perhaps there will be more records about this disease and its antidote in medical books, but it is not easy. Scheer didn't know much.
Fisher's thoughts paused slightly, pulling away from the memory of death rot, and then listened to Jesse in front of him continue to bury his head,
"The first mate and sailors had no choice but to sacrifice the lives of those people in order to protect themselves. They completely blocked the cargo hold and threw all the people inside off the ship. A mother begged me to keep her child secretly, but I I saw with my own eyes that dead putrefactive sores had grown on her child’s body, and I couldn’t do anything, I really couldn’t do anything.”
"Finally, the Flying Fish and I returned to Nali safely. The crew and I also incurred debts because of the lost cargo, and had to serve them many more times. From then on, I saw clearly the nature of the pioneering company, even if What we transport are not living people, even those dead things that cannot speak, they are all snatched from corpses and broken families in the Southern Continent, whether they are demi-humans or humans."
"Under such torture, the entire crew of the Feiyu decided to escape from the hell of the Narli Development Company. We took the goods of the Narli Development Company and headed north along the South Ocean, deciding never to return to Narli. But we could It is not a powerful warship like the Iceberg Queen. Wherever we go, we will be discovered by Nali spies there. In the process of resupplying and landing again and again, the crew seized less and less treasures, and they also died one after another. Leave me here alone”
After finishing such a long paragraph, the old man Jesse slowly raised his head and looked at Fisher in front of him.
"Haha, this may be the punishment of the Mother Goddess for the crimes we committed before. Sooner or later, the development company will usher in this day. But what's the point of talking about it now? My ship is still locked at sea by those gangsters. , and it is impossible for me to return to the Flying Fish that I have longed for."
".Unless the Iceberg Queen can help, those damn gangsters will never let go. But this is just a joke. As I said before, I have nothing to give her in return."
At the end of the sentence, Jesse took another sip of strong wine and fell to the side of the road like a flabby beggar. He also reached out and dug into his stomach.
Fisher glanced at Jesse on the ground, seeming to be thinking about something. After a second or two, he looked up again at the Flying Fish floating quietly under the moonlight, and then asked,
"Do you usually stay here?"
"Ah, yes, just stay here. I still owe a lot of money to the gang, and even if I have some spare money, I will spend it all on buying alcohol. But the weather on Pattiusa is good, at least I won't wake up from the cold at night, that is. It’s not kind to me when it rains.”
"Well, you wait here for my news, I will come to you later."
After finishing speaking, Fisher was about to turn around and leave, leaving Jesse lying on the ground and blinking at Fisher's back. Then the corners of his mouth slightly raised and he smiled, and he waved to Fisher. He waved his hand and responded drunkenly,
"no problem"
Emhardt, who was walking back on Fisher's shoulder, seemed quite excited, as if the book hidden on the Flying Fish was already waiting for him in front of his eyes.
"Go, go! Go and notify Alagina and ask her to help us get the boat back, so that I can record one more book that I haven't seen!"
Fisher glanced at the excited Sir Shu on his shoulder and interrupted his impatience without warmth.
"When did I say I was going to inform Alagina to seize the ship?"
As soon as he heard Fisher's words, the bouncing Book Sir froze in place. He stared blankly at Fisher, who looked expressionless but in need of a beating, and endured a bump in his side. Face said impulsively,
"You're not going to rob the ship?! Then you've been chatting with that old man for so long. Do you really like listening to other people's stories? If you're not willing to help me, you're not willing to help me. Lord Shu doesn't care about that, huh!"
Fisher didn't even look at him, and slowly walked through the alleys in this area. It didn't take long before he saw the outline of the hotel where they lived before.
"That old man can't be the captain of the Flying Fish. No matter how convincing he is, it's impossible for the Nali Development Company to hire him as the captain of a cargo ship. Besides, I just saw the condition of the compass. Even if the compass is in It all looks clean under the moonlight, which shows that he treats that thing as a treasure rather than a tool. This is not a true captain's behavior."
"As for his story, I don't know if it is true. If it is true, he may be a subordinate working next to the captain of the Flying Fish; if it is false, it is most likely a trap to lure me to help. But no matter what, he The reason why you are telling me this is to arouse my sympathy, and to make me ask Aragina to help get his ship back. There is probably something on the ship that he cares about very much."
Emhard opened his mouth while listening to Fisher's analysis. After a long silence, he murmured,
"Oh my god, you humans are so sinister. Even a wise person like me couldn't see through such a deep scheme. Then you could have just exposed it at that time. I hate it when others lie to me, especially when it's written in a book. The kind of bastard who tricked me into spending half a day recording it, I’m going to slap him in the face hard!”
You can't see that it's all because you're stupid.
Fisher didn't say this to give him some face, but he just shook his head at Emhardt's suggestion, and then continued,
"No, not only do we not expose him, but we also have to follow his will. After Alagina leaves, I will help him get the ship back. This is Pattiusion Island, the territory of pirates. We need to take a boat Going to the North is not only far away, but also may lead to a large sum of money being blackmailed. I need a ship that can take me to the Kingdom of Sardinia, and that ship is a good choice."
Fisher stretched and casually held Emhardt in his hand.
"You'd better pray that he has evil intentions towards us, so that I can naturally see what treasures he has hidden on the ship. And don't you want to see what is written in the book above, huh?"
Emhardt, who was in Fisher's hand, stared blankly at Fisher in front of him. After a long pause, he shook his head and said quickly,
"Oh my god, Fisher, how can you be so bad? But I like it so much. I finally know why those ladies always fall into your trap. Sir Sir I can't stand it anymore. I have I can’t wait, when will we start implementing the plan?!”
Fisher silently glanced at Sir Shu who was excited again, and casually threw him into the air, letting him float.
"Don't worry, wait until Alagina leaves here."
