Chapter 843: Planning

It can be seen that the Western dragons' love for gemstones is not the values in the eyes of humans, but simply the luster of gemstones. According to the analysis of the book demon, it is likely that the simple values of the Western dragon clan believe that the sparkling gem is the scales left by the ancient dragon clan, which has the effect of making their scales more beautiful and solid.

Hawkins was in a good mood after getting the help of Zhang Fan's team. Therefore, Baron Shi Fan and his companions are now the dragon slaying heroes of his fleet, and they are highly respected! And his sailors, in this battle of the Cape Verde Islands tribes, more than three hundred black slave captives of the rival tribes were captured! Let him wake up laughing in his dreams.

But he is not satisfied, these black slaves can be squeezed, and at least more than two hundred can be squeezed in the cargo hold! To this end, Hawkins calculated the volume ratio of the cabins of the ships carrying the black slaves, and discarded all the sailors' belongings, except those related to seafaring survival, to the complaining of the white sailors. The living space of each of those black slaves was only half squatting, and there was not even a single wine bottle in the cabin!

Early the next morning, the fleet set sail and headed straight for the coast of West Africa! His goal was to exchange cheap European industrial goods on the African coast for some black slaves from local tribal leaders, as well as some local products such as ivory and gemstones. These are all lucrative deals.

Of course, Akon's request for Drake to bring some of the toughest Native warriors captured into his own team went well because Hawkins got the benefits. After paying some price, more than thirty of the strongest black fighters were taken to the ship of Zhang Fan's team.

There is no need to worry about Drake being shoddy, Zhang Fan's heavenly eyes can see the basic attributes of these indigenous warriors, and even with the cooperation of the indigenous warriors, he can also discover the skills mastered by these indigenous warriors! These tough warriors are really good hands. Most of them have practical skills such as hunting, stealing, and technical attack. And although they have no culture, their four attributes of intelligence, understanding, forbearance, and concentration are not low!

Mastering the knowledge of a civilized society certainly improves intelligence. However, intelligence does not reflect the amount of knowledge mastered, but the strength of a person's ability to learn. It cannot be denied that the illiterate indigenous warriors of these Cape Verdean tribes have mastered the skills of survival in the wilderness and the knowledge of the simple natural world.

Seeing so many fighters in place, Akon ran out of ideas. After thinking about it for a while, he asked the indigenous warrior Sarica to take these warriors to learn seamanship with Drake as a sailor for the time being, and maybe he could let these native warriors act as sailors and seamen in the future. Led by Sarica's lobbying, these indigenous warriors were happy to serve this very kind black-haired and yellow-skinned nobleman who was different from the whites.

Following this nobleman, these natives were not only spared the terrible fate of being killed and eaten by their rival tribes, but also did not have to be sent to the distant shore of the sea by those white people to suffer the pain of slavery. It's just that their own kindred, who are imprisoned in the big ship black prison of the white people with terrible fire-breathing weapons, are very pitiful and make them sad.

Although Zhang Fan's team knew that there might be information about 'Ying Long' on the other side of the Atlantic, they were not in a hurry to go, anyway, Hawkins' fleet was bound to go to the Caribbean Sea on the other side. Continuing to trade off the coast of Africa now might give us a little more useful information.

Moreover, the coast of Africa is rich in gold and precious stones, and I am afraid that in the future, I will have to face many Western dragons, who are all masters who love these shining stones. At that time, I am afraid that a large amount of treasure will be needed to exchange a lot of cheap European industrial goods here, and accumulate some capital. Otherwise, it is impossible to kill a dragon when he sees it, Zhang Fan doesn't want to become a notorious dragon slayer in the Western dragon clan, chased and killed by a large group of dragons.

After a period of rest in Cape Verde, the flotilla headed for the coast of Africa. Just as the fleet was about to approach the African continent, Zhang Fan fell into deep thought......

"I want to do one thing......" Zhang Fan thought for a long time and said to everyone seriously.

Akon raised his head and looked at Zhang Fan, but he didn't make a sound.

Green Wing asked curiously, "What do you want to do, you're done." Ask us what we do? ”

"This matter is a bit difficult without everyone......'s cooperation," Zhang Fan frowned.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Greenwing asked suspiciously.

The book demon said to Zhang Fan: "Do what you think, I don't think it's a bad thing......"

Green Wing was a little furious: "What kind of medicine did you buy in the gourd?!" ”

Akon said faintly: "What else can I do, this guy is not used to Hawkins and Drake's slave trade, and he has been softened by the original warriors we have just recruited, and his compassion is bursting, and he wants to do chivalrous deeds...... But I'll put it bluntly, it's a much riskier thing than slaying a dragon! ”

Zhang Fan nodded, "I know this in my heart......"

Greenwing smiled, "That's it, are you so entangled?" If you want to do it, you can do it. ”

Akon shook his head, "It's not that simple, it's not like setting a fire, burning Hawkins' fleet, and then letting those black slaves go, it's that simple!" ”

"So what else?" Green Wing rarely thinks about the consequences, and although she knows it deep down, she doesn't want to think about it. In fact, Zhang Fan's troubles are also known in her heart, but she prefers to act as the sword edge of the team! If Jianfeng could think, it would be a very bad thing. That affects the sharpness of the sword!

"At least they shouldn't know that we did it!" Akon was clear, "Hawkins and Drake, these two historical figures are important to our future official scenes, and they must not spoil the relationship!" ”

"Then we'll cover ......our faces," Greenwing Daxiao said.

The bookdemon also smiled, "Although Akon is right, we need to know that the trial scene is just as important to our team. And let's not forget the purpose of the precept bearer, shijie. What Zhang Fan wants to do is in line with the tone of the precept holder, and maybe this is a test for us. ”

"Then we'll have to plan it well!" Green Wing slapped the table, "I believe that with you two wise men here, there should be nothing that can't be done!" …… Well, let me know when you've figured it out, I'm going to sleep now......" Green Wing patted Akon and the bookdemon on the shoulders and pulled Dark Sakura out of the conference chamber and into his cabin.

"She can say it's simple......" Akon said helplessly.

The book demon drank black tea, opened the hardcover parchment book, and said lightly: "Let's split up and figure it out." The old rule, meet again after 24 hours, and talk about each other's jihua...... I'm also going to recall the record information, you can ...... it," after speaking, he just opened his own hardcover book and wrote the background information related to the search.

On the table in front of him, there was also a large collection of books from this era, all of which were bought from Plymouth Harbour, which was the habit of the book demon, and every time he went to any scene, he had to find a way to buy and acquire the books of this era. For this precept bearer, Shijie, the greatest gain is the true knowledge of various historical periods! Because no prop of an ordinary human ordination can bring out of the scene, but knowledge can be learned in one's own brain, and the book demon bred by the billions of books in the 'Vatican Secret Archives' was born for this.

Akon Zhang Fan nodded and went back to the cabin. Zhang Fan couldn't sleep, so he went to the deck, facing the cool night breeze of the Atlantic, looking at the starlight in the night sky, thinking about how to get rid of these black slaves who were about to be sold to the Caribbean. Not far from the sea, a few faint bits of light swaying in the waves, which are the portholes of the Hawkins merchant ships, which can keep the fleet at an ideal distance. The pilot ship is a small two-masted fast sailing ship located two nautical miles in front of the fleet.

"Can't sleep?" Xuanyuan Xing's voice sounded above Zhang Fan's head, and he was on duty tonight. Even in the vast sea, Zhang Fan's team still arranged a sentry.

"Yes, I can't sleep anyway, change me on duty tonight, you can go back and rest." Zhang Fan raised his head and said to Xuanyuan Xing on the helm tower.

Xuanyuan Xing jumped down from the rudder tower and stood beside Zhang Fan very lightly, "I can't sleep either, let's talk." Well, what do you want to do to save these black slaves? As if this has nothing to do with our main task. And this is just an illusory scene of the ring-holders, these black slaves are just scene evolutions, and we are not really chivalrous, so why bother with this effort? ”

Zhang Fan looked at Xuanyuan Xing, held on to the side of the ship, pondered for a moment, pointed to the night with the sea and sky in the distance, and said slowly: "Is what we have experienced all illusory?" I don't think so. Now that we have been in real shijie for as long as the precept bearer shijie, which shijie do you say is more real? ”

Xuanyuan Xing scratched his head, "What you said seems to make some sense, but didn't the book demon say that everything here is just the evolution of the 'Qiankun Ring' in the spirit world, and all the historical figures here may be spirits in the spirit world, and they have been dead for I don't know how many years!" Why should we bother with these dead? ”

Zhang Fan nodded, but shook his head again, looked at the dark Atlantic Ocean under the starlight in front of him, and said slowly: "It's true, everything here is very illusory. Who's to say that the real shijie is not an illusion? If a soul comes to this spiritual realm after death, where do you think our true destination is? Reality shijie? Or is it here? ”

"This?" Xuanyuan Xing couldn't turn his mind around, he thought about it for a while, and asked, "But what we do here isn't it for the sake of living a good life in reality?" ”

Zhang Fan smiled and asked: "Then what are we living for?" ”

"For ......" Xuanyuan didn't know how to answer, yes, what is life for? Is it to return to this spirit realm after death? What a ridiculous reincarnation! Regulus was a little discouraged.
