Pirate Traveling Merchant

The comatose child showed no sign of waking up.Nolan and Feng stayed up all night to look after him, feeding the child as much water as possible.This is what they can do, and others who don't have medical skills can't do it either.

Everything can only rely on the child's own vitality. Watching the child's condition getting worse and worse, his face becomes paler and paler.

The two of them were in a very bad mood. Nolan came outside irritably and looked at the starry sky.Feng has been taking care of the child in the cabin, hoping that the child will turn around.

The sun rose the next day as usual.Nolan's heart gradually sank as the sun rose.

The sea is very quiet in the early morning. There is no other sound except the sound of the waves, as if it is a lifeless zone.

"Wake up." Feng's voice came from the cabin.

Nolan suddenly became energetic and ran towards the cabin.Entering the cabin, I saw the child's eyes opening slightly.

"It's great to wake up." Nolan said excitedly.

When the child saw Feng and Nolan, there was a look of fear in his eyes.

"It's okay, we are not bad people, we saved you floating on the sea." Nolan noticed the child's emotions and hurriedly explained.

After hearing Nolan's explanation, the child's eyes slowly calmed down.The chapped mouth opened slightly, "My mouth...is thirsty..."

Feng immediately picked up the soup and fed the child spoonful by spoonful.

"You drink first, and I'll cook you something warm later." Nolan said with a smile.

The child felt very hungry now, and all his energy was focused on the soup in Feng's hand.If he hadn't been too weak to move, he would have picked up the bowl and drank in big gulps instead of drinking spoonful by spoonful like now.

Seeing that the child was in good spirits, both Nolan and Feng laughed happily.

Nolan patted Feng on the shoulder and said, "I'm going to cook something." Feng nodded.

When he came outside, Nolan stretched, "Well... the weather is really nice today." Nolan said looking at the dark clouds on the horizon.

Not long after, Nolan walked in with hot food.

Although the child is still in a very bad state of mind, he really wants to sleep.But he was so hungry that he drank some cold soup, which made him even hungrier.Nolan just said that he would bring new food, so he held on and waited for the food to come.

When he saw the food in Nolan's hand, the child's eyes lit up instantly.Nolan put the food down and said with a smile: "You can't eat too much now, just drink some hot soup and some bread."

The boy's expression suddenly changed. Nolan looked at the boy's violent fluctuations in emotions and laughed directly.

"Hahahaha, Feng, this kid is so interesting."

"Haha." Feng chuckled, and then returned to his calm expression.

"Come and eat quickly. You have just walked through hell." Nolan picked up a piece of bread and handed it to the boy.

After the rest just now, the boy could barely do it on his own. He took the bread with trembling hands and started eating.Nolan and Feng also started to eat. After staying up all night, they were also a little hungry.

After the boy ate something, he was stopped by Feng.With nothing to do, he lay down and continued to rest, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

While the boy was sleeping, Feng checked the child's body again.

"How?" Nolan asked sitting next to him.

"Too much physical wear and tear may lead to the root cause of the disease. You must find a doctor to treat it with medication." Feng said a very, very long sentence.

"Oh, I mean Feng, can we discuss whether you can answer me more or give me more reactions when I talk to you in the future." Nolan said with some taste.

"No." Feng replied ruthlessly.

"Tch, stingy." Nolan packed up the dishes and walked out.

When the boy woke up again, it was already dark.

After waking up, the boy's mental state improved a lot, and he was able to answer Nolan's and others' questions with energy.

"What's your name"

"Jonah."

"Why are you adrift on the sea?"

"I escaped and had nowhere to run, so I jumped into the sea with a plank of wood."

"Run away. What happened to you? Why did you run away?"

When asked about this, Jonah seemed to recall some bad memories. Tears began to roll in his eyes, and then fell down in large drops.His hands were clutching the sheets tightly, but he didn't speak.

"Uh..." Nolan didn't expect the child to react so strongly and was a little overwhelmed.

Feng on the side just listened quietly without speaking. He was not a comforting person to begin with.

"Well, don't cry. Let me change the question." Nolan said in a hurry.

"Where is your hometown?"

"In the East Sea." Jonah said in a choked voice with a tearful tone.

"Donghai" Nolan and Feng looked at each other and frowned.

"Could it be that this child was trafficked to the West Sea by human traffickers?" Nolan said looking at Feng.

"It's possible." Feng agreed.

"Oh, this is a bit difficult to deal with." Nolan held his forehead with a headache.

It is completely unrealistic to let Jonah go home on his own.But to send Jonah home, he had to go to the East China Sea.But Nolan and the others now want to head directly to the Grand Route. If they take another detour through the East China Sea, the trip may be delayed for another ten days and a half.

After a moment of silence, Nolan looked at Feng and said tentatively: "Should we go to the East China Sea?"

When Jonah heard this, he immediately stopped crying.With his big eyes, he looked at Feng.

Seeing the older and younger people looking at him, Feng said helplessly: "I have a choice."

"Okay, it's settled." Nolan waved his fist happily. "By the way, you said you escaped from the boat, so are there many similar children on the boat?"

"Well, there are about a dozen kids like me." Jonah said while wiping his tears.

"You know which direction the ship is going and what its name is?" Nolan's expression became serious.

"I don't know. We have been locked up and have never come out." Jonah replied.

"It seems like he's a veteran, and he's pretty good at what he does. You're really good at escaping from those people." Nolan touched Jonah's head and said.

The traffickers' ship must have discovered Jonah's escape.Therefore, it is impossible to linger nearby. He should stay away from this area of ​​​​the sea as quickly as possible and get rid of those children.If I chase him now, I will definitely not be able to find him even a shadow.Nolan thought in his mind and looked at Feng.Feng naturally knew what Nolan was thinking. He shook his head at Nolan and said that he had no choice.

"Alas..." Nolan sighed.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little dull, Nolan clapped his hands and said, "Let's not talk about these unhappy things for now. Let's eat first. Only when we are full can we have strength, and only when we have strength can we do things."

As he spoke, Nolan walked out, and soon a table full of food came in.The food tonight is very rich, including meat, vegetables, soup and rice.

Seeing such rich food, Jonah was no longer so sad. He forced himself to sit up and wanted to get out of bed to eat.

"You can't tell he's still a foodie." Nolan looked at Jonah struggling on the bed and said jokingly.

"Jonah, don't get excited, just sit on the bed and eat." Nolan said and brought the food to the bedside.

Nolan, Feng, and Jonah began to enjoy this rare and sumptuous dinner. Although the incident of human traffickers cast a haze on the cheerful atmosphere.However, everyone tried their best to maintain a happy mood.
