On the southeast side of Xiao Mansion, in a dark water prison, Louis Peter finally woke up from the chaos.
Perhaps it was God's blessing that those damn yellow-skinned monkeys did not torture him again. On the contrary, although it was a water prison, it was very dry and the space was very spacious. This also allowed Louis Peter to get enough rest and was lucky enough to survive.
Take your own life!
Taking off the pendant hanging on his chest, Louis~Pete gently touched the photo of a beautiful girl, but endless despair flashed in his eyes!
His full name is Louis Gates Pitt. He was born in Yorkshire, which was in the midst of the British Empire at this time. His father was from a prominent Yorkshire family and was named 'Lord Louis'. His mother was born on the east coast of Portugal.
, owns a large number of vineyards and land, and is also a famous nobleman in Portugal!
At this time, it was the beginning of the Age of Discovery. Countless young Europeans had dreams, borrowed money, or sold iron, put together a small boat, and wanted to rush into the misty sea to find the unknown treasure!
Louis~Peter is no exception!
However, he was born into a noble family and had excellent family conditions since he was a child. His father owned a huge commercial dock and several trading houses in the famous port city of Liverpool. The conditions for him were many times higher than those for ordinary explorers.
Typical tall, rich and handsome guy!
At this time, in Europe, which advocates individual heroism, following the legacy of their fathers is usually regarded as a coward's behavior. In order to prove himself and let his beloved girl see his ability, Louis Peter asked his father for help.
After agreeing, a luxurious expedition fleet was formed and drifted from the Atlantic coast, around the Cape of Good Hope, to the distant Far East!
Louis Pitt's fleet was very large, with three armed sailing ships and four huge sailing ships filled with cargo. He employed a total of nearly 300 sailors, more than half of whom were veterans of Britain, Portugal, and France.
Born as a sailor.
They plundered gold and spices from the east coast of Africa and sold them to Southeast Asia, thereby making a fortune. However, when they stayed in Jakarta, they heard rumors from the locals that there was a piece of land somewhere in the far northeast across the sea.
This huge continent is full of gold and silver!
His companions were all overjoyed when they heard this, and Louis Peter was also a little ready to make a move! But unlike the others, Louis Peter was born into a noble family, and his knowledge was many times higher than that of the sailors who worked hard to make a living! His uncle
Just the year before last, when he had just taken office as the Governor of Macau, he had also seen his uncle describe that magical land in the letters he wrote home!
"When a person's heart is filled with desire, destruction is not far away!" Lewis wrote in his memoirs decades later.
Soon, they packed their bags, recruited more than a hundred local sailors, and headed for the land full of gold in their dreams!
What happened later was very simple. They first received a high-level welcome from their uncle in Macau, and then continued their journey north. They had a smooth journey and made a lot of money. However, when they passed a big river and continued to head north, they were attacked.
A rare storm strikes!
In the chaos, Louis Peter was separated from his fleet and was forced to approach the land!
Just when he was begging people to give him support, he happened to encounter a group of guys shouting "White Lotus is born, Maitreya is born"...
…………
Outside the door, the dazzling white light suddenly woke up Louis Peter from his memories. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, but saw a young man in luxurious clothes walking towards him with a smile!
"Dear Sir, welcome to this rich land! God bless, I'm glad to see you wake up!" Liu Ruyi spoke fluent English and gracefully gave him a standard gentleman's courtesy!
In later generations, Liu Ruyi's small advertising company struggled to survive in Shanghai, and had to deal with those white guys many times. These people not only had strict requirements on projects, but also paid pitiful salaries. However, they
One good thing is that he usually doesn’t owe money! In order to survive, Liu Ruyi lost his teeth and had to swallow them. He still managed to take on a few clients. Although he didn’t make much money, it made Liu Ruyi’s English better.
Practiced extremely smoothly!
"Oh~! God bless! Did your holy light finally shine on your believers? Finally, I met a person from a civilized society!" It took Louis Huth a long time to react, with his fingers desperately on his chest.
When I made the sign 'cross', I burst into tears with excitement!
"Dear Sir, you can call me Mister Liu, or you can call me brother! You know, I like to make friends the most!" Liu Ruyi smiled and extended her right hand to Louis Peter!
Louis~Peter quickly held Liu Ruyi's hand and said excitedly: "Dear Liu, thank you for your life-saving grace! As a descendant of the distinguished Lord Louis, I will definitely pay you!"
Liu Ruyi couldn't help but secretly curse, 'This damn foreign devil has such poor virtues! At this level, he still can't forget his bloodline! Even if he is the Queen's biological son, can he be eaten now?'
As soon as her thoughts changed, Liu Ruyi put a smile on her face again, "Dear Sir Louis, I feel very honored to be recognized by you! As for the reward, it is too far away now! However, I am a person who likes to make friends the most.
Friends, we are friends now, aren’t we?”
"Yes, yes! Dear Liu! I am so happy to see you, but, can you prepare some food for me first? I, my stomach is really unbearable!" Louis~Peter touched it
It was almost touching the belly on the back, he said awkwardly!
"Oh! This is my fault! I will immediately order my subordinates to help you prepare!" Liu Ruyi quickly bowed and turned to give some instructions to the soldiers behind him.
…………
A plate of scrambled eggs, a plate of stir-fried vegetables, and a large plate of boiled meat slices, the fat and oily kind, plus two pots of carved wine!
The dishes were not very rich, but Louis Hut's mouth was full of oil. He ate all the fatty meat slices in one go and shouted vaguely: "It's so delicious, this is simply too good."
Eat it! Thank God!”
Liu Ruyi ordered his soldiers to bring a chair and sit next to him, but he sneered secretly in his heart, "I will charge you one thousand taels of silver for this meal no matter what!"
When Louis Peter stuffed the last green vegetable into his mouth, he was still a little unfinished. He poured a full bottle of Diaohua wine into his stomach, moistened his throat, and then said: "Dear Liu, thank you so much for your enthusiasm.
Treated! If you can come to our British Empire, I will definitely treat you to a whole-sheep feast!"
Liu Ruyi smiled slightly, but she cursed in her heart: 'This bastard foreign devil, are you planning to treat him to mutton?'
Waving his hand and signaling for the soldiers to retreat, Liu Ruyi looked into Louis Hut's eyes and said, "Dear Mr. Louis, we can put these matters of eating and drinking aside for the time being. What I want to know most now is, why do you do this?"
Fall into the hands of those cultists?"
Louis Hut sighed and slowly recounted his story to Liu Ruyi!
Liu Ruyi shook her head sympathetically, "It's so pitiful! God will punish those cultists! But, distinguished Mr. Lewis, where are your companions? They, they all fell into their hands, right?"
"Hey! Liu~! Forget it! There are a total of eighteen of us, and seventeen of them have been burned to death by them so far. As for me, if I hadn't been saved by you, I would have gone to see God!" Louis
~Peter sighed, obviously still worried about what happened last night!
Liu Ruyi's heart moved, "So many of your reliable companions were not captured by those cultists?"
Louis Huth nodded vigorously, "I think so! Liu~! You know, I am a noble, and my father is very powerful in Liverpool! If they can't bring me back safely, they will definitely be punished by my father.
The most severe punishment! I think they must be wandering on this coast now, searching for my whereabouts!"
Liu Ruyi nodded and asked: "Do you still have an impression of those cultists?"
"Oh! God! They are just a group of savages! No, they are devils! Dear Liu, I saw it with my own eyes. They put one of my companions into a pot and cooked him alive!"
Liu Ruyi has no interest in what happened to Louis Pete. Thinking about the "MLM" organizations of later generations, and then thinking about my world-famous "big urban management", what else is unacceptable?
"Dear Mr. Lewis, we need to talk about the main point now. You know, I am a person with status and status in China. Only if you tell the truth can I help you! As for their lair, you still have
Impression?" Liu Ruyi was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and went straight to the topic!
"Yes, yes! Dear Liu, you are so right! Let me think about it, think about it!" Louis Pete rubbed his temples hard and said lamely: "Ou Li, Ou Li, I remember
, they seemed to shout this name often, and where we were imprisoned, there was a very big lake. In the evening, there was always a bird with a big head and a small body flying on the lake.
Fly away!"
"Quli? Quli? A big bird?" Liu Ruyi frowned, but her mind was spinning rapidly.
There are lakes everywhere near the Xiao family compound, and many fishermen also keep cormorants at home to assist in fishing. After adding the pronunciation of "Quli", Liu Ruyi gradually had a clear idea in his mind.
Outline!
Is there something wrong?
