Chapter 359： End of the diary (four/five)

Holding the gold coins to study for a while, Shao Zifeng put them away and continued.

"In November 1711, the **** was not comfortable and the departure was postponed."

"In March 1712, after bidding farewell to my parents, I took the glory of the Karen family and set off on a sailing ship. May God and the Queen bless me smooth sailing and return to the Empire with supreme wealth and honor. I swear, I will Let Sir Charson also enjoy the feeling of not being able to sit on the bench."

Madder is mentally retarded.

Shao Zifeng flipped through his notebook a bit madly after talking back and forth about such a little mess.

Please four of you, no, plus Jack.

Will the five of you get married in place?

Shao Zifeng flipped through his notebook, Xiaolu raised his head and looked at it, then continued to rest on his lap.

In addition to the unintelligible content of this diary and the thoughts of this Mr. Karen, there is not much to read.

"In May 1712, the brave Mr. Karen and his knight captured the enemy’s castle, harvested one sheep, two hens, and two sick elderly slaves. Finally, the benevolent Mr. Karen pardoned them. The crime of leaving their land, an island not as big as my garden. Damn, I'm tired of life at sea, I need a woman!"

"In June 1712, I can't help it anymore, Miss Charlson... No, as long as it's a mother... Hey, that sheep."

"In June 1712, that sheep was good, I like it very much."

Shao Zifeng's hand shook, and he suddenly felt that this notebook was so dirty.

Taking a deep breath of the depression in his heart under the air pressure, Shao Zifeng continued down.

Ok.

How did the diary break?

Although this Mr. Karen doesn't keep a diary every day, he has never failed to keep a diary for three months.

He flipped through a few pages quickly and found that some lines were drawn on the paper that were similar to a flight map. The brushstrokes tore the paper. He could see that Mr. Karen was very irritable when he drew these lines.

After turning a few pages, I finally found new content.

"In September 1712, we were lost, **** **** and **** xxx, we were lost at sea, may the Lord and the Queen pardon my crime."

"In October 1712, for survival and food, I personally killed several servants with a short sword. I was guilty."

"In November 1712, the second mate fell ill. He continued to have a high fever, his gums were rotten, and his legs were swollen."

Gum corruption.

Swelling of the legs.

Seeing this, Shao Zifeng showed a clear look.

He probably knew in his heart what illness the second officer had.

From the very beginning, seeing them going to sea, Shao Zifeng wondered if they would have this situation, and the disease still appeared.

Both the East and the West have experienced the era of great voyages. The difference is that Western crew members often suffer from a strange disease.

In 1521, Magellan led more than 200 crew members to start circumnavigation. In the end, only 18 people completed the feat of circumnavigation.

In 1740, a few decades after Mr. Karen went to sea, British Admiral George Anson led 6 warships and more than 2,000 crew members to sail around the world. Four years later, the fleet returned to Hong Kong and it was discovered that only one flagship ship was docked. , Hundreds of sailors were frail, and the remaining 1,000 people were all killed by the disease.

Scurvy.

It has been a nightmare that sailors cannot escape for hundreds of years, and it is also the existence most feared by Western crews.

The main reason for this situation is that the diet structure is different. Western crews mainly use meat bread, etc., because of the lack of vitamin C, which leads to scurvy. In the East, in order to eat fresh vegetables during the voyage, people will cultivate fresh crops such as bean sprouts on the ship, so the disease rarely occurs.

After clarifying the reason, Shao Zifeng prayed silently for Mr. Karen and the others, and continued to look down.

"In December 1712, the second mate died, and several others suffered the same strange disease."

"In December 1712, I ended a patient with the'Glory of the Karen family'. He dared to insult me. After killing the dagger, there was no trace of blood stained. I suddenly felt that our ship must have been ancestral. The group of witches who killed was cursed."

Appeared! Feudal superstition!

Shao Zifeng curled his lips, just about to turn the page, but his gaze swept to the ‘Glory of the Karen Family’

He was silent for a while, although his illness could be explained scientifically.

But with the existence of this sword, who can tell if it is feudal superstition.

"In February 1713, they died, and they were all dead. Only me and the third mate, and the sheep who would run when they saw me. The good news is that there are plenty of drinks and jerky. I hope to get on the shore soon. "

"In April 1713, the third mate disappeared, just last night. The sheep died before my eyes. I wanted to feed it some dried meat, but this **** sheep refused to eat it."

There was the sound of water droplets in the dark cave in the distance.

Shao Zifeng looked more and more seriously as his slender and white fingers flicked word by word.

He had a hunch that what happened next was why Mr. Karen came to Antarctica.

The changes in Mr. Karen can already be seen from the lines, the most obvious is that he has not prayed like God and the Queen for a long time.

The whole person seemed to slowly become numb, and the disappearance of a person was even worse than that of the sheep in his heart.

"May 1713, maybe May, the weather is getting colder and colder, I saw a lot of ice floes, they kept hitting my ship The night is getting longer and longer, and the sun comes out. It will change back to night, and I feel like I must be crazy."

Be good.

Impressive.

The clues in these short sentences are full.

This is drifting near the Antarctic Circle. May will enter the Antarctic winter. The night is getting longer and longer, and finally it turns into a polar night that lasts for half a year.

"In June 1713, my ship was enveloped by endless night, and the weather was getting colder and colder. Someone was knocking on my door just now. There seemed to be strange noises coming from the sea. I didn’t dare to open the door... I might Will die here."

"In June 1713, the dense sea fog seemed to have returned to the capital of the empire, where it was also shrouded in the fog all the year round...Sing, is that the Siren the Siren singing? I really want to sleep...Okay. I want to go back to my hometown."

Siren the Siren.

Shao Zifeng frowned. Station Master Cui once told a similar story when he encountered the fog before.

If the story of the stationmaster Cui can be interpreted as a myth reprocessing.

But Mr. Karen was from the 18th century. At that time, the world was advancing according to the normal course of history. There are still more than 200 years away from the outbreak of the "Unknown Recovery Event". How could you hear the singing?

Is it an illusion produced by being alone for a long time?

This is not impossible.

After all, people in that era were more superstitious than they are now.

After thinking for a moment, Shao Zifeng continued to look at it.

"In 1713, when I woke up, I found myself wrapped in a quilt and thrown in the snow. There was ice and snow everywhere. Am I banished by God?"

"In 1713, this may be my last diary, monster xxxxxxx magic xxxxx day punishment xxxxxxx"

(For the sake of my hard work, the big guys will count the votes.)
