Fugui and his party returned to the boat, and those who stayed behind saw that they had caught a few birds of such a size, and they all ran over to see the freshness. That lively scene diluted the sorrow of an uncertain future. And looking at these laughing sailors, Fugui made up his mind that no matter what, he would also find a way out and bring them back to Dahan.

With this thought, at dawn the next day, after the rich and noble people explained clearly to the people left behind, they set out on the journey to investigate again. And this time, they no longer just searched closely, but directly entered the depths of the grassland.

It is quite difficult to find people in the savannah. Moreover, they are rich and noble, and they are not sure whether there are people on this grassland. In this way, after three days of searching on the grassland to no avail, they were all a little discouraged.

"Chief Fugui, it seems that there should be no one living in this vicinity. The days we have come out are not short, so let's go back first and then think of a way. ”

"Let's look for it again, if there is someone in front of us, we will go back now, what a pity?!"

"Okay, then we'll look for it!" Hearing the words of wealth, the people searched forward for three more days.

"Chief Fugui, the days we have been out for too long must not go any further. Otherwise, the people on board will be worried about the breakage. ”

"Alas, that's the only way it can be, let's go back." Listening to his subordinates' proposals, Fugui sighed and began to walk back with his subordinates. However, after searching for so long, he didn't find anyone, and he pondered there as he walked, "Such a grassland suitable for human habitation, we have not found any traces of human habitation for so long." Could it be that this god really wants us to take risks? Sailing northeast?! ”

Faced with that dangerous and unfamiliar route, Fugui couldn't make up his mind. And at this time, the old sailor, seeing that Fugui's face was not depressed, came over to relieve him, "Chief Fugui, this place is so big, according to common sense, there will definitely be people." Although we haven't found anyone here, that doesn't mean we can't find anyone anywhere else. No, let's sail along the coastline. When we saw places where people might live, we all looked for them on the shore. I think I'm looking for a lot of places, and I'm sure I'll be able to find it. ”

"Walking along the coastline, that's the way to go!"

Hear the words of the old sailor. Fugui couldn't help but nodded. To know, walk along the coastline. Not only is it easy to find people. And. The biggest advantage is that you don't have to face the unknowns on the sea. After all, as long as there is a way, people are willing to take risks.

Don't look and search it took a lot of time, but when you go back, it's much faster. They're working day and night, and they don't even use half of their time. Just went back to the ship.

"Rich and noble they are back, and rich and noble are back!" As soon as they saw Fugui and them, all the people on the ship were excited, "How is it, Chief Fugui." Have you found anyone? ”

Hearing people's questions, Fugui and them all shook their heads with depressed expressions.

"Ah, didn't find it?!" Seeing the look of the rich and noble, the people left behind, the disappointment, don't mention it.

"No, we can't go on like this!"

Seeing people's disappointed faces, Fugui, the leader, was a little breathless. He summoned his lieutenants, and the experienced old sailors, into the room, and began to discuss whether they should take the risk.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's not a matter for us to search so aimlessly. I think we need to discuss our future?! ”

"Chief Rich and Rich, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Okay, then I'll say it." After looking at everyone, Fugui spoke, "After my repeated pondering, our route should be deflected southward." But I'm not sure, and you're all experienced, and I need you to help me with ideas, are we going to venture north? ”

"Mr. Fugui, we have also thought about what you said. But we can't make up our minds. An old sailor said, sighing, "Although according to common sense, our course is going south. As long as you sail north, you will be able to return to your original route. But the hurricane was spinning, and we were all so busy running for our lives that we couldn't be sure if it was going south. You know, this kind of thing is a fatal thing, and we don't dare to make up our minds without being completely sure. After all, in this vast sea, if this idea is taken wrong, there is no chance of remedy. ”

"Rich and noble, if you don't take risks, it's better not to take risks. After all, now, we are close to the continent, even if our living materials are consumed. Relying on this continent, we can also live. But if you go to the sea and run out of food and drink, it will really be a death to the heavens and the earth. ”

"Household supplies? That's a big problem! ”

In the past, Fugui only considered the dangers at sea, and did not consider the issue of food and drink at all. After all, their ships are big enough, and if nothing happens, the food and water they carry will definitely last until they return to Dahan. But not now, with so many sailors and slaves on board, the consumption of a day is quite large. From the departure to the present, for such a long time, the daily necessities on the ship have been almost consumed. If they get lost on the sea, they will only be dead as soon as the food and water are consumed and they will not encounter other dangers.

"Chief Fugui, let's go along the coastline!" The old sailor said to Fugui: "If we have to deviate to the south, the Great Han will be in our northeast." And this coastline is east-west, let's go east along the coastline, and we won't delay returning to Dahan. ”

"Well, since you all say so, let's set off along the coastline early tomorrow morning." Although Fugui wanted to take the risk and give it a try, all the others were unwilling, and he had no choice but to listen to everyone's choice.

Now that everyone had discussed it, early the next morning, everyone pulled anchor and set sail. However, the voyage was set sail, but the ship was moving quite slowly. There is no way around this, in an unknown place, there is nowhere to supply coal. So they weren't turning on the steam engine, they were just using the sails to propel the ship forward. In order to leave coal burning, in case of emergency.

Such a large ship, propelled only by sails, is almost turtle speed. However, this speed is just right for them to observe the situation on land.

For more than ten days in a row, Fugui and the others all stood on the deck, holding binoculars, observing the situation on land.

"Made, it's been half a month, don't say it's a person, even a bird feather hasn't been seen. Is there anyone in this hellish place?! Impatient, Fugui threw the telescope into his chair, turned around and went into the cabin.

Although the ship was moving slowly, it had to travel a lot of distance in such a long time. But after such a long journey, he didn't notice it, and Fugui felt that he was getting more and more irritable. He had to think carefully about whether he was going to venture north.

It's such a big thing, how can it be so easy to get an idea. Therefore, as soon as Fugui thought about it in the cabin, it was afternoon. And just as he had made up his mind to take the risk with him, a sailor came knocking on the door.

"Rich Boss, Rich Boss, we have found people! We've found people! ”

"What, found someone?!" Hearing this, Fugui suddenly burst out, "Where is the people?!" ”

"Rich manager, look, it's on the grassland over there!"

When the sailor and the rich man came to the deck, they stretched out their hands to guide him. Fugui held a telescope in his hand, and looked in the direction of the sailor's fingers, there were a few guys with bird feathers on their heads and black and white painted on their bodies, although they looked strange, but people could not be wrong.

"Really, get over there!"

This kind of thing, where is there any need to get the orders of wealth and nobility, as early as the first time I see people, the ships begin to dock.

The ship is slow, and it will take a long time to get ashore. Afraid that these people would disappear, Fugui kept an eye on those people.

The men, some with sticks in their hands, some with bows and arrows, were aiming at a prey, obviously hunting. And seeing this, Fugui was a little relieved. You know, since these people are hunting here, they must not live very far. This means that their place of residence must be nearby. Even if you lose their whereabouts now, you can definitely find them if you look around.

As soon as Fugui put his mind at ease, someone next to him exclaimed, "Manager Fugui, look over there?!" ”

"Ah, what's going on?" Fugui looked in the direction of his finger, and there was a large group of things that only knew whether they were dogs or wolves, slowly approaching them, wanting to hunt them, "It's not good, those people are in danger, we must save them." ”

I finally ran into a few people, and if they were bitten to death by something that I didn't know if it was a dog or a wolf, if they were touching someone, I don't know when!

Seeing this situation, not only the rich and noble are anxious, but others are also anxious. After all, those few people are related to their hope of returning to Dahan. So the people on the boat shouted together, wanting to alarm those people and make them prepare, and the province was caught off guard by those things.

Although there were many people on the boat, they were so far away that their voices could not be heard. Seeing that those things that they didn't know if they were dogs or wolves were getting closer to those people, they didn't want to mention their nervousness.

The people on the boat were nervous, but the hunters were unaware of anything, and continued to move slowly towards their prey. As they got closer and closer to their prey, and were about to catch them, things that were not just dogs or wolves attacked them. (To be continued......)
