[001] Alchemists from 400 years later(1/2)
The water in the Bering Strait is so blue!
A thin little boy stretched out his hand from the black hole of the boat, scooped up water, and sighed in his heart: In the world of the 19th century, everything looked so beautiful!
This is a steamship with a black household registration, with a displacement of only 350 tons, but there are a full 200 people under the deck, most of whom are Qing people, and there are also a small number of Japanese Shikoku natives and Korean pearl divers.
The living conditions in the large cargo hold below the deck are very harsh. After all, this is a slave ship. As long as a quarter of the 200 people can reach the destination alive, the owner of the ship will make a profit, so who cares?
Do these lowly East Asians live or die?
It is now one or two o'clock in the night, and most of the captured coolies have fallen asleep. Only the little boy, wearing a relatively clean canvas, is sitting on the side of the boat, scooping up sea water every now and then.
In the corner, Zhou Bodang leaned over and said softly to Long Ganruo next to him: "Gangzi, do you think the young master is stupid after his fever subsides?"
Ganzi is Long Ganruo's nickname, describing his tall and slender figure.
Long Ganruo snorted softly and said: "It doesn't matter if he is stupid. If he knows that the master and his wife have passed away, will he be heartbroken to death?"
Needless to say, this 'young master' is the boy sitting on the side of the boat. His name is Long Hao, he is 12 years old this year, but now, the soul in his body comes from four hundred years in the future!
A tiny bit of moonlight reflected through the sea and bounced into the hole of the boat, illuminating Long Hao's face. It was a pale face with thick eyebrows, dark eyes, a high nose bridge, and thin lips as thin as wings.
He looks like a pretty handsome little boy, but due to many days of fever and lack of food, his cheeks are sunken, and he still has a long braid on the back of his head!
Long Hao was the only son of a Han ruler of the Qing Dynasty. He grew up outside the customs. Some time ago, due to a failed political struggle, his father Long Zhengxing was implicated and imprisoned, and his mother also became ill!
When the imperial edict came down, Long Zhengxing was sentenced to death and his family was exiled three thousand miles to the north. Long Hao's mother ordered the house to be burned, hanged Bai Ling herself, and sent several confidants to flee to the sea with Long Hao.
Zhou Bodang and Long Ganruo are two of the confidants!
But who would have thought that these henchmen were inexperienced and accidentally got tricked into boarding this black-hearted slave ship. Just as he was about to resist, Xiao Longhao got a fever again, so he had no choice but to endure it.
After Long Hao's condition stabilized, Zhou Bodang and others were dumbfounded: Where did this rumbling armored ship go? Even ice cubes could be seen on the sea!
As a result, Zhou Bodang and others had no choice but to continue to be patient and wait for the steamship to dock for supplies before finding a way to riot and escape.
Zhou Bodang had served as a soldier. In the words of the Qing Dynasty, he was Long Zhengxing's personal soldier and servant!
Several of their confidants joined forces and beat up some Koreans and Japanese who tried to rob the ship below the deck, and occupied a good and dry position with a hole in the boat.
The daily meager amount of black bread and water can be obtained by grabbing a portion first!
Long Hao retracted his arm from the hole in the boat, and a tiny golden light flashed, as if something had penetrated under his skin.
Long Hao thought to himself: 'Jin Yuan' feeds very quickly. It has only been ten days since I traveled back to this era, and Jin Yuan seems to be 13 already! Unfortunately, I thought this body could not feed Jin Yuan at first, so I was worried in vain.
long time.
The source of gold is a kind of microorganism that alchemists must feed since childhood. On the earth four hundred years later, it is the most common common sense for alchemists to have a source of gold.
The soul in this body was a genius alchemist in his previous life!
Four hundred years later, in 2290, Long Hao was the most outstanding alchemist in the history of China. He graduated from the Alchemy Academy at a record-breaking age of 25 years old, and soon became the top and most commanding alchemist on earth.
A remarkable alchemist.
Here is a brief explanation of future history. In 2078, the Third World War broke out. After 20 years, more than 5,000 nuclear bombs were detonated. When the war ended in 2098, there were only 500 million people left in the world, and the entire earth was shrouded in a black cloud.
below, entering nuclear winter.
In 2198, the 100th anniversary of the victory of the war, the earth has been rebuilt. The original quantum physics, chemistry, mechanics and other subjects have been classified as banned books and are not allowed to be studied, because the Earth Federation is afraid of triggering another nuclear war and completely destroying the earth.
In 2205, the Alchemy Academy was established, and alchemy became a continuation of science. Every person on earth, regardless of nationality, must learn alchemy, and only a small number of outstanding people can graduate from the Alchemy Academy and be awarded the badge of 'Alchemist'
.
In 2255, only China, the United States, Australia, Germany, Africa, and the defeated island are left on earth. Upper-class mainstream people, including financiers, politicians, lawyers, educators, etc., must have the badge of the alchemist.
People around the world are proud to be alchemists.
After Long Hao graduated, he had a chance to become the leader of the Huaxia Kingdom. However, due to the exposure of his exploration of forbidden books such as quantum physics and chemistry, everyone criticized him and his reputation plummeted.
In a secret small-scale nuclear test, Long Hao unfortunately failed and was brought back to the body of the little boy with the same name four hundred years ago by the nuclear explosion.
After ten days of soul fusion, Long Hao not only accepted his current identity, but also successfully synthesized the first 'gold source' in this era! This is the foundation of the alchemist!
Long Hao stood up slowly. His thin body made him unable to withstand the bumps of the ship, and he could hardly stand still!
However, Long Hao secretly clenched his little fist: God, since you have given me a chance to live again and brought me back to this era that made countless Chinese people sigh with regret, then everything is up to me, Long Hao, to lead this era.
The greatest alchemist comes to change! Greater China will rise in my hands! The history of the son of a bitch will be rewritten!
Zhou Bodang had been paying attention to Long Hao. When he saw him suddenly standing up and almost falling, he quickly whispered: "Yuan'er, hurry up and take care of the young master!"
A few meters away, a bulge on the floor suddenly moved, and a vigorous shadow rushed towards Long Hao, holding the young master who could not even stand still and was thinking about the rise of China in his mind.
Long Hao felt a soft body clinging to his back. He looked back and saw a girl about the same height as him, with fair skin and dark eyes, looking at him with a worried look.
Yuan'er whispered: "Master, are you okay?" After saying that, he lowered his head, seemingly shy.
Yuan'er is the same age as Long Hao. She was bought by Long Hao's mother from the refugees to serve as her son's bed-warming maid. She has been in Long's family for nine years! It can be said that she has a deep affection for Long Hao.
In the past ten days, after Long Hao merged with the original soul, he knew that the wrong thing that bastard boy had done before had caused harm to Yuan'er, and he was determined to make up for it. He gently raised Yuan'er's chin and said softly: "Yuan'er.
I'm sorry, the young master will never laugh at your face in the future, and the young master promises you that your face will be cured!" Although the voice was soft, in the quiet night, even Zhou Bodang and Long Ganruo couldn't help but laugh.
You can hear it.
They were dumbfounded and looked at each other: Damn it, are you so gentle to Yuan'er? Master, he has really burned out his brain!
The soft moonlight naughtily entered the cargo hold more and more, shining on Yuan'er's porcelain-white neck, illuminating the outline of her face that had not yet grown up, but was already perfectly shaped.
Needless to say, this is a little beauty.
However, these were all ruined by the shocking red spot on his face! There was a burn mark on the left side of Yuan'er's face!
Yuan'er timidly said: "Young master, why are you saying sorry to me? I, I..."
The mark on Yuan'er's face was left when she was ten years old in order to save Long Hao. But since then, the ignorant Long Hao has gradually disliked this disfigured little maid, ranging from sarcastic words to harsh words.
Then he rewarded Yuan'er with boards, which made Yuan'er's life worse than death for the past two years.
If Yuan'er hadn't practiced martial arts since she was a child and could protect Long Hao, she would have been driven away by Madam Long!
Yuan'er was already scared when she was in trouble on the unknown sea. Then she suddenly heard Long Hao's "crazy words" about apologizing and wanting to restore his appearance. The little maid thought that the young master had come up with some weird idea and wanted to
Fix yourself!
I almost cried out of fear!
Long Hao looked at Yuan'er's sparkling eyes and asked in confusion: "Hey? Why are you crying? I apologize to you, so you don't have to be so moved!" He came from four hundred years later, when men and women were equal.
In Long Hao's view, apologizing to a woman, especially a maid who is so considerate to oneself, is a perfectly normal thing.
Yuan'er sobbed: "Master, wuwu... don't hit Yuan'er, Yuan'er is very well-behaved, and he will be very well-behaved!"
Long Hao thought for a while and then suddenly realized that this was the Qing Dynasty in 1890, a deformed feudal era where men were superior to women. Not to mention that Yuan'er was just a bought maid. Even between husband and wife, the husband could fight at will.
Scolding my wife!
Hey, it’s such an evil yet lovely patriarchal era! Long Hao sighed.
Seeing that he couldn't explain it to Yuan'er for a while, Long Hao waved his hand in a dumbfounded voice: "Go and sleep aside. By the way, call Uncle Long over!"
Seeing that the young master did not call the guards to beat him, Yuan'er unexpectedly stopped sobbing and asked softly: "Master, now?"
It's three o'clock in the morning, when people are sleeping soundly. Go call Long Bo now. The young master's behavior is really unexpected!
"Yes, hurry up and do it, I have to sit down and rest!" Long Hao rubbed his legs and secretly sighed that his body was too weak, and his bones seemed to fall apart after a few bumps. It's really terrible!
Yuan'er hurried away, muttering in her heart: Master, it seems something is really different...
Long Bo is a sixty-year-old man who is the chief steward of the Long family. It is said that Long Zhengxing was also raised by Long Bo and has a high prestige.
Long Bo was woken up by Yuan'er. He was old and had little sleep. At this moment, he moved his legs and came to Long Hao's side and said respectfully: "Master, are you looking for me?"
Long Hao learned from his memory that he must not underestimate the Ju Yuan Long Bo in front of him. Yuan'er's martial arts were all taught by him, and so far, he has not taught him twenty-three percent of them.
Long Hao also said respectfully: "Uncle Long, I'm sorry to bother you so late!"
Is this the young master? Long Bo was slightly surprised and said: "It's okay, my old bones can still hold on. I wonder if the young master is feeling better after recovering from a serious illness. Do you have anything to tell me?"
Long Hao said in a deep voice: "Uncle Long, where are we? Our situation is very bad, right?"
…
The young master grew up after becoming ill!
Long Bo and Long Hao talked until dawn. Finally, Long Bo said: "Master, if you have any ideas, just go ahead and do it. We, No. 11, have sold our lives to your Long family a long time ago. There is no need to worry about anything."
of!"
After Long Bo finished speaking, he walked tremblingly to Zhou Bodang and others, and whispered a few words. The expressions of these confidants changed, and they almost jumped up on the spot!
Xiami? The young master wants to hijack the ship?!
After eating the few pieces of black bread and scarce water they had just grabbed, Zhou Bodang and others settled in a corner around Long Hao.
Except for Long Bo and Yuan'er who were on guard outside, there were ten people inside including Long Hao!
Zhou Bodang had served as a soldier in the Qing Dynasty and as a reserve soldier in the Beiyang Navy. He had some knowledge of ships and a pair of arms as strong as iron. He was like a bold and bold Northeastern man.
Together with Zhou Bodang, there are six other people including Long Ganruo, who are all loyal servants of the Long family.
They are Zhou, Long, Chen Bahu, Zheng Gongxiao, Cui Yuanlang, Bu Jiadi and Gao Tianyang!
