Count of Monte Cristo

The young man did not wake up until the third day, and Edmond went to give him another treatment, and there was nothing serious.It's just that his mental state is very bad.The condition of the canteen on the ship is very poor. The young man has a snow-white face. The clothes he wears are lent to him by the chef. Although they don’t fit well and are big and big, they are extraordinarily elegant on him. He is a beautiful young man with a golden color. Curly hair, a pair of dark blue and light gray eyes, a high nose bridge, and a delicate and thin collarbone exposed outside the clothes, but it is extraordinarily attractive.

When Lin Ke visited him, he was eating dry bread. He dripped oil on the bread and put thin slices of bacon on his thick bread. He poured the tea into a small saucer and drank it. He didn't seem so happy in a long time. He ate quickly without being rude.Seeing Lin Ke, he smiled and said hello. His voice was hoarse and cold, but Lin Ke felt that his voice was low and indescribable.

Chef Philips saw Lin Ke approaching and handed him a cup of tea. Lin Ke took it and sat down too.

The chef hummed, and he said happily: "Hi, the weather is really nice today, Eisen, can you take Steven to the deck after a good meal to enjoy the sea breeze?" It turned out that his name was Steven, Lin Ke thought.

Steven put down the tableware in his hand at this time, and wiped his mouth with a napkin, "Eisen, please." His movements were unhurried, his expression was calm, and his voice could not hear any interest.

He was so serious when he was rescued that day, Lin Ke felt that he should rest for a while.

Steven smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, I hope I won't bother you too much, I hope to understand my environment as soon as possible."

Lin Ke groaned, and stopped talking. He felt that there were many fans in Steven, but he could see that Steven was not the kind of talkative person. He had a kind of arrogant indifference.

The chef had already prepared the breakfast for the sailors, and then he blocked the kitchen door with rags to prevent the sea breeze from coming in.Finally, turn on the stove, light the firewood, stir up the fire, sit down and enjoy it for an hour.

"Good boy, Eisen, let them all come to eat, I'm going to have a good rest. I've been busy all morning."

Philips took his own breakfast and sat next to Steven. The captain and first mate did not eat with the sailors. Usually, after the sailors had finished eating, the chef would make them for them, and then served the breakfast to their cabins. inside.So sailors always have to get up early and eat fast.Upon hearing this, Lin Ke left and put down the teacup in his hand, and quickly ran to call them to eat.

After Edmund checked Steven, he returned to his cabin. He didn't know what he was up to recently, looking mysterious.

Edmund was tinkering with some potions in the cabin, and when he saw Lin Ke coming in, he smiled at him: "Hey, Eisen, did you sleep well? Do you still want to learn Italian today?"

"My God! Edmond, please forgive me! Hey, what are you doing?"

He stepped forward curiously, and Edmund poured some potion into a small glass bottle. Inside the glass bottle was a faint red potion with a pungent smell. He lifted the bottle up and shook it, and then gently used the stopper He covers it tightly.Lin Ke saw a faint smile on the corner of Edmund's mouth, as if he was relieved.

Lin Ke wanted to touch it, but Aidemeng Que avoided him, "Don't move around, it's very dangerous."

Lin Ke was obedient and did not move. He felt that Edmond had a convincing majesty. He said, "Go and eat."

Edmund rubbed his head.

"What is this, potion?" Lin Ke still didn't give up.

"Yeah." Edmund didn't want to say more, and dealt with it all his life.Linko didn't ask any more.

The two went out together.

Edmund asked, "How is Steven?"

Lin Ke talked about his situation, and Edmund nodded, "That's good, I'll give him a few more potions, and he should be able to disembark when he falls to the next port. By the way, Eisen, don't you talk to He was in too much contact."

"Why?" Lin Ke asked curiously.

Edmund stopped in his tracks and smiled secretly, "Remember what I told you about pirates? Pirates are a very stubborn group. Sometimes if they spot their prey, no matter how difficult it is , they will do whatever it takes to get him. If the prey has been caught and accidentally missed, then this prey will become a thorn in their hearts, and these pirates will do everything possible to pursue him fearlessly like a girl they love. Get it back in the palm of your hand. Do you know?"

Lin Ke nodded half-understanding, "You mean pirates are scary, don't mess with them, right? But what does this have to do with Steven?"

Lin Ke's eyes were dark, revealing doubts. He looked at Edmund, eager to know the answer.

Edmund said: "Eisen, you should really study Italian." Then he raised his feet and walked towards the kitchen, leaving Linko in a daze.

"Don't be dazed, you still have tasks to complete." Edmund walked a few steps and saw Linko was still in a daze, smiled and came over and pulled his shoulders and walked forward.

Sure enough, when the two of them arrived, only Steven and the chef were there, and the other sailors had already started their day's work.

Steven seemed very happy to see Edmund, not at all cold as before.

Edmund gave him some pills, and Steven thanked him softly.

Lin Ke quickly bites his breakfast, there are still many things to do later.

They are almost driving to the place where they want to trade. The place they are going to is a small island, about three days away.What they have to do today is to sort out the goods, classify and pack them and record them in the book, so that the sailors can make no mistakes when trading.Lin Ke didn't do this job before, because he couldn't even figure out the words on the cargo, and the captain didn't trust him to do it.Now Lin Ke has made rapid progress in his studies under Edmund's education, and he can easily handle this job.

It was stuffy and hot in the warehouse, Lin Ke was sweating profusely, he worked carefully, and several other sailors worked with him. Edmund and Jacob were called to the main control room by the captain.

Lin Ke also vaguely heard some sailors' comments, saying that there is a powerful pirate ship in this sea area, and the captain probably asked them to go over to discuss countermeasures.

The morning passed quickly, and Lin Ke had already sorted out two warehouses, and he decided to save the remaining three until the afternoon.The other sailors agreed, and it was half an hour before lunch.Lin Ke was covered in sweat and his clothes were soaked. He wanted to go back to the cabin to take a shower first.Hearing that he was going back to his cabin to take a bath, the sailors who worked with him laughed at him, calling him troublesome and timid.They're ready to jump straight into the ocean for a good wash, easy and smooth.Lin Ke didn't want to do this. Last time he drank so much seawater with leg cramps in the sea, it was shadowed.Refuse to go into the sea easily.Several sailors pushed and yelled at each other and left.

Lin Ke walked through Squad A to the small ladder on the second floor, the first floor of their warehouse.He recited a few words while walking, muttering to himself.

"Eisen?" A nice voice stopped him.

Following the sound, Lin Ke saw Steven standing on Class A at the bow, smiling at him.

Lin Ke walked over quickly, "Steven, what's the matter?" Steven's hair was blown by the sea breeze, and his eyes were very beautiful, like gems dropped from his body, bright and precious.Steven's expression was a little melancholy at the moment. He seemed to want to say something to Lin Ke, but he was too embarrassed to speak, and seemed a little hesitant. In the end, his expression froze as if he had made up his mind.

"Eisen, my jewel... well, it's the little bag on my body..." He seemed to be unable to speak.

Lin Ke understood what he meant, "It's stored with the captain. If you need it, you can go to the captain's room to get it back."

Steven shook his head, "That's not what I meant. When you rescued me, did you see a piece of my epaulette?"

Lin Ke recalled it carefully and shook his head.

"Jacob and the first officer rescued you at the time. I didn't notice your epaulettes." Epaulettes?What is this, "Is it important?"

Steven looked very disappointed, but he still smiled and thanked Lin Ke, "Thank you for saving me. Oh, by the way, when can we go ashore?"

Lin Ke only knew when the goods would be traded, but he didn't know when the Maid would dock.He scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly, he really didn't know what to ask. "You can ask the first mate."

Steven nodded politely and fell silent.Lin Ke said again: "Then I'll go back first, you should go back to rest too, your body is important, it's not good if the sea breeze blows too much."

"I'll be with you."

Lin Ke was a little surprised, but he didn't think too much about it. During the 3-minute journey, Lin Ke mentioned some basic information about the Maid.Lin Ke also asked about Steven's situation, but Steven just smiled and didn't mention himself.Lin Ke thought that he must have something to hide, so he didn't ask any questions to avoid embarrassment.He mentioned pirates by the way, but he didn't expect Steven's complexion to change instantly, becoming gloomy, pale, fearful, and even a little unstable.Lin Ke hurriedly supported him, but Steven shook off him all at once, acting violently, as if he hated to reject other people's touch.

Lin Ke was a little embarrassed, "Steven, I'm sorry."

Steven seemed to realize that he lost his composure. He eased his expression, "I'm sorry, I lost my composure. I may be a little dizzy from the sea breeze..."

"Are you all right, would you like Edmond to show you?"

Steven shook his head, "I'll just go back and have a rest, don't bother Edmond." After speaking, he left in a hurry.

Lin Ke shrugged, walked into the side of the boat, filled the bucket with water, and carried it into his cabin.He'd better enjoy the cool sea water.

It has to be said that Lin Ke is still very shy, and other sailors generally do not choose to take a bath in the cabin unless the weather is very cold.They usually take off their clothes and choose to go directly to the sea or do it on Class A.Jacob laughed at Linko's pussy behavior more than once, and Linko tried to bathe on deck, but the rough sailors would look on and laugh at his color and skin, calling him a bitch Haw is unmanly.Although Lin Ke knew that they didn't have any malicious intentions, it didn't mean that he liked being ridiculed in public.He took off his shirt and wiped it off with a towel.After thinking about it, he decided to buy a larger wooden barrel the next time he goes ashore, so he can take a bath in it. Winter is coming, and he is still planning to stay on the boat for a year and save enough money to live on land.There were also some on board, but they were filled with flour by Chef Philips.

Lin Ke took out clean clothes to change into, when the cabin opened.

"Eisen!" Lin Ke turned his head, and Edmund was standing at the door holding a piece of paper, his expression was faintly excited.

"Edmond?" Lin Ke was embarrassed, and he quickly put on his clothes.Despite his quick movements, Edmund still saw Lin Ke's delicate chest and slender legs.This kid's skin is quite fair, shouldn't Asians have yellow skin?The thought vaguely flashed across Edmund.

"Edmond, what do you want from me?" Lin Ke had already calmed down, and he carried the bucket out.

"Philips is looking for you." Edmon paused, "Lin Ke, I will tidy up the warehouse in the afternoon, and you memorize the chart of this sea area." He handed the paper in his hand to Lin Ke.

Lin Ke was a little puzzled, "What am I looking at this for? Is it to prevent pirates from attacking?"

Edmund was a little surprised at his sharpness, and gave a short hum, "What did Steven tell you?" He saw Steven and Linko standing in Class A for a while.Lin Ke thought for a while and said, "He asked me if I saw his epaulets. I think Steven has something to do with pirates, maybe he escaped from a pirate ship."

"The captain knows this matter very well," Edmund saw that Lin Ke's collar was a little messy, and helped him tidy it up. "The captain said that the trading location has been selected, and it is a deserted island." I don't know if it is Lin Ke. Ke's delusion, he clearly felt that when he said the trading location, Edmund's expression was suppressed with excitement and excitement, just like the feeling that the long-awaited treasure is finally in hand.

"Do you have a name?" Lin Ke asked casually. Their captain was superstitious. Every time he chose a trading location, he had to choose a place with a name, saying that he would be blessed by the sea god.The place I chose last time was also a small island called the Principality of Luc.At that time, Lin Ke also lamented that the names given by foreigners were really weird.

"Monte Cristo." Lin Ke clearly felt Edmond's voice tremble this time.Monte Cristo?Where do you think you've heard this name before?Something flashed through Lin Ke's mind, and he shook his head vigorously, but he couldn't remember anything.Lin Ke looked at Edmond, he seemed to have calmed down again, with a resolute face, wise and deep eyes, with endless mystery, he spoke again, "If this transaction is successful, none of us will have fifty francs, you Time to think about what to buy?" The trembling just now seemed to be Lin Ke's illusion.

Hearing such a rich bonus, Lin Ke's eyes lit up.

Edmond ruffled his hair and laughed.

Lin Ke quickly promised. "Dear teacher, I will definitely buy a lot of books back!" Studying hard and making progress every day is the choice and pursuit of every teenager without regrets!
