Harry Potter Morning Light

A series of "dan boats" shuttled back and forth, surrounding the island.

The commander-in-chief of the fleet intends to deliver a message to the officials in Macau. The message may not be important because the messenger is just a navigator, so Nick seizes this opportunity to go to Macau. The navigator put him in a wooden boat with six oarsmen and two apprentice sailors, one of whom also served as cook.

It can be seen that they are afraid of these waters, as can be seen from the tributes offered to the "Queen of Heaven", the greater the risk, the more tributes, the wax statues are wrapped in colorful ribbons, placed in a shrine surrounded by fake Decorated with flowers, silk, and sequins, an oil lamp burns continuously day and night in front of the shrine.

People use this lamp to light incense made of fragrant wood powder or to light burning paper. There are many kinds of paper products, including gilded, oiled and scented. Sooner or later, they would offer tribute to Mazu in front of the shrine, but no matter whether it was an egg or a large piece of pork, the result would be the same. Any tribute that Mazu did not accept would become food for devout believers, and nothing would be wasted.

After arriving in Macau, the boat stopped in front of a row of fishermen's huts. The women were busy with housework, the men were smoking in the shade of the trees, and the buffalo was kicking back and forth. Sometimes it would raise its head and cast confused glances around.

After the navigator put Nick down here, he drove away and continued his mission. The fishermen around wished the navigator a safe journey.

The opposite of Macau is Hong Kong. You can see Mount Lantau, or Lantau Island. It is 15 miles long and 5-5.5 miles wide. Yue anchored on the winding waterway between the mainland and Mount Lantou to avoid the extremely destructive typhoon in that area.

Nick found a priest at the St. Gazashi Hospital near St. Paul's Church. At that time, China's vaccinia technology had been greatly improved, but the efficacy of vaccinia was not yet clear, which aroused the resistance of traditional vaccinia practitioners and the suspicion of ordinary people. Moreover, this technology came from the East India Company, which made them have a rather complicated psychological shadow on cowpox.

In order to feel the effect, the priest himself received the vaccination, and then developed a low-grade fever. For safety, he will be quarantined and observed for two days. During this time, Nick visited Macau and even went to Hong Kong.

The smuggled fast ships of the East India Company will unload British goods on "barges". As long as high tariffs are not paid, the price will be greatly reduced. Clippers are large ships with a load capacity of about 300 tons. There are many small boats hanging on the ship. They usually sail fast with full sail and are not even afraid of typhoons.

Of course Nick will not miss this good opportunity to communicate with the smugglers. He wants to find out who threatened Captain Yao not to take him out of Guangzhou.

Judging from the information received by the smuggling merchants, there may indeed be major actions recently, whether it is pirates or the White Lotus Sect. In order to survive, the pirates will break up into pieces and divide into several small fleets. The entire coastal area is shrouded in terror. Every town has to pay tribute to the pirates. When the pirate ships pass by the nearby waters, the local residents also pay tribute to the fleet. Towns that refuse to pay tribute will be ransacked by pirates. They kill old people and children, plunder women, dig graves and snatch the bones of the dead in exchange for ransom. This behavior is extremely ridiculous to foreigners, but in a Chinese People of filial piety will certainly pay a lot of money to redeem the remains of their deceased great-grandparents, paying even more than those who redeem their own brothers.

Since Jiaqing ascended the throne, there have been armed White Lotus believers in the border areas of Sichuan, Shaanxi, Henan, and Hubei against the Qing Dynasty. The scale was even larger than Wang Lun's uprising. The chaotic army also caused many stragglers to flee in all directions.

The terrain in the south is complex and mountainous, and the rebel army has also received the support of people from all over the country, providing houses for them to live and hide. Pure military means cannot quickly win the war.

Nick still couldn't figure out where the note came from. It was said that "ghosts" could get into the body, so would it get into the sculpture of a Bodhisattva?

The pantheon in China is already filled with all kinds of gods and Buddhas from India, and Hades is also included among the gods. In order to get rid of the sense of terror brought by the Buddha statue, Nick drew many sketches of the church, and returned to Guangzhou by boat together after the priest finished the quarantine.

The street was still very lively, and no one was talking about gossip, as if everything Nick had experienced in that temple was just a nightmare.

The old Juren came back the next day after they came back. He came to ask Nick when he would leave so that he could return the rent. Not long after he arrived, the admiral sent someone to invite Nick and the priest to the house.

After Cao Xi and Nick left, the admiral lived in anxiety and worry every day. His fever did not improve. Now he has lost confidence in Chinese medicine. Wanning is taking care of him, which is also part of "filial piety".

There are unfavored concubines like Xilin Jueluo's E Changzai, and there are favored concubines, such as Emperor Jiaqing's biological mother Lingfei, who became the third queen of Emperor Qianlong after her death.

She is a Han, so Emperor Jiaqing can be regarded as a mixed man and Han, and he is not the eldest son. Emperors in history sometimes made princes who should not be emperors heirs because they favored their mothers.

Fortunately, Emperor Jiaqing's brothers didn't fight for their legal inheritance, or they had a fight, but Guangzhou is too far away from BJ to feel it.

"Oh~" Georgiana grumbled.

"What's wrong?" he asked perfunctorily.

"Nick didn't say what he felt when he saw Wanning." She put the book in front of Bonaparte, and he turned his head aside, as if he didn't want to read it at all. "What's the point of writing a love story like this?"

"This is Nick Polo's 'Travel Notes'."

"So, can't you write about love?" She asked back.

Bonaparte shook his head, as if unable to communicate with her.

"The French are good at sweet talk?"

He still didn't speak.

"He can't please girls like this," she said, patting the pages of the book.

"Are you going to continue reading?" he asked impatiently.

So she started reading this "wonderful" story again.

In the procession of worshiping the Buddha, the fairies sat on colored platforms, some of which were covered with green plant decorations, although their faces were smeared with rouge, their eyebrows were painted black, and their lips were thickly painted with red paint. It's not ugly. Their headdresses are beautiful, inlaid with flowers, gold ornaments and precious stones, and pearl knots are hung from the silk tassels, which are even more beautiful when they are paired with silk embroidered skirts.

With such a calm look in their eyes, what woman would dare to do so if she had not the courage to wear such bright clothes and ornaments? Besides, the thick rouge covered their blushing cheeks, how could anyone guess their inner emotions?

Bonaparte laughed again.

This time he didn't say anything, and Georgiana knew what he was laughing at.

Nick kept staring at the girl, and of course she blushed.

"They haven't spoken," Georgiana muttered.

Bonaparte was still laughing, but said nothing.

Georgiana thought about the insurance problem that Nick mentioned before. Can it really solve the pirate problem?

She turned to the next page. This whole page showed three women holding umbrellas and round fans in their hands. They looked like the female relatives of rich people. It's just that their umbrellas are very strange, they seem to be opened, and they don't seem to be opened. They cover their faces, and they look like they are wearing a pointed hat, showing a pale chin, and their eyes are hidden in the umbrella. A monster called the Paper Umbrella Demon.
