[Full text reading] "How is John?" Lu Yuan asked Li Huamei listlessly. He had been driving for a whole day, and the ship behind him was stuck to the back like a dog-skin plaster... Lu Yuan turned around and it was Run, Lu Yuan continues to walk west and he will follow.
The "Elona"'s mast was damaged, its speed was not as fast as that of the "hms Bellona", and it couldn't get rid of this mangy dog.
What's even more annoying is that in the afternoon, through some means, the British Fourth Fleet actually lined up in a neat formation and followed up at an extremely fast speed... It was obviously that ship again. A certain powerful attribute made Lu Yuan's teeth itch with anger, but he was helpless.
However, this pursuit characteristic obviously has certain limitations. For example, the magic attributes of "hms. Bellona" can only work when it is chasing "Elona". If it moves forward to outflank, the attributes will be invalid. .And the Fourth Fleet, obviously can only be pulled by the "hms. Bellona" like a sled, and they will never be able to run that fast themselves.
Lu Yuan used seawater as raw material to create a very crude medicine for curing diseases, and Li Huamei arranged for all the sailors to take it. Under the treatment of Lu Yuan's medicine, the people on the ship finally showed signs of improvement - and died. The number of people began to decrease, most people stopped deteriorating, and a few people began to show signs of improvement - but unfortunately, this did not include John Workman...
Perhaps it was because he was the first person to be exposed to the virus, or perhaps his heart was carrying too much guilt... In short, John could only deteriorate little by little, with no sign of recovery. It seemed that the confrontation on the deck was exhausted. He lost his last bit of energy and spent most of the day in a coma.
Hearing Lu Yuan's inquiry, Li Huamei shook her head, "Captain Lu..." Since there are other crew members on the ship, we still have to pay attention to the provocation. "John wants to come and sit on the deck..."
Lu Yuan was silent. He knew what this meant. Lu Yuan had carefully explained it long ago - after taking the medicine, he needed to rest in bed. Drink plenty of water and avoid exposure to wind...
"I think John has already made up his mind, just listen to him." Li Huamei persuaded again, and Lu Yuan nodded. He looked back at the dozens of warships following him, his eyes flashing with a cold light. Silently Clench your fists.
"good!"
"How long will it take for the people on the boat to recover? I mean even if it's only a small part..." Li Huamei asked worriedly before walking down the poop. There are actually only two people on the boat now. , the others are all sick, and even the mildest ones are bedridden.
Li Huamei was a little worried about whether Lu Yuan's potions could rescue these people quickly enough... Otherwise, they would never be able to change the situation of being chased. How long could they last with just two people?
Lu Yuan shook his head, "We lack the conditions for dispensing medicine. That medicine is a very crude treatment medicine. It's good to be able to survive. It will take more than half a year to recover." He looked at Li Huamei, "Let's find an opportunity to send these people away." Go ashore, and then... abandon the Aerona!"
Li Huamei looked at Lu Yuan in surprise. Lu Yuan spread his hands helplessly, "Not to mention some of the people here have followed me. These people are John's crew members. He will definitely ask me to do my best to save the lives of these people. How can I how?"
Li Huamei shook her head and left. She had no better way. But who on the ship didn't know Lu Yuan's feelings for the "Elona"? That was the only way, but the price was all borne by Lu Yuan. So unfair...
"Captain, I'm going to fetch reinforcements!" The parrot that had been huddled beside the poop suddenly said. It flew off the ship without waiting for Lu Yuan's permission and flew towards the east with all its strength.
Lu Yuan shook his head and said nothing. He would not underestimate Clifford's wisdom. Since he had set up such a trap, he would not leave such a big loophole. Even a parrot can think of it, and that person will not think of it. But He did not try to stop Doug the parrot, who was safer among other "opera" members.
Two bottles of wine were placed on the deck. Li Huamei held the steering wheel and quietly peeked at the backs of the two men drinking there.
"The first time I saw you, you looked very arrogant and stuck a dagger in my subordinate's hand. I thought at that time, here comes another bastard!...Hahaha~"
Two men were sitting on the steps of the poop.
John Workman was wearing a coat, laughing and talking about the past with Lu Yuan. Except that his face was thinner and more haggard, he looked just like a normal person. All the coughs disappeared... John's original nickname was "White-headed Man". His natural silver hair was usually neatly combed meticulously. Today, his hair was spread straight on his shoulders, giving him a more free and easy look.
Lu Yuan just sat there drinking, listening with a smile. When John laughed, he smiled too, like a good friend who was good at listening. Whenever John's wine glass was drained, he picked up the bottle and Pour it for John.
But Lu Yuan's left hand was always pressed on the back of John Workman's heart and never left for a moment.
"When we were having a meeting, you suddenly opened the door and walked in. My heart skipped a beat! It's over! It's over! When I thought about being caught by Zad Capa, I wanted to grab a gun and fight You tried your best..." John said about the scene when they had their first secret appointment, "but you broke the knife in one click, and I was scared at the time! At that time, I thought... maybe, you can really fight. I'm not sure if I can beat Kappa... Actually, I'm afraid that I'll be killed by you soon. Everyone is afraid, so I agreed to you. You know, it would be a good thing if either of you dies."
.[,! ]
"A bunch of bastards..." Lu Yuan complained, and the two of them laughed loudly together.
Li Huamei looked at the backs of the two men sitting there, the tears in her eyes flowed out disobediently, and she couldn't help it.
That laughter just made her want to cry.
"Later, during those seven days of driving through the storm... I couldn't hold back for a few hours of sleep, but there was such a bastard who drove us continuously for seven days and brought us out of the storm..." John's voice was a little bit... "At that time, I thought, if I give my back to this person, what do I have to worry about? In my life, I have never thought about following someone... But if it is the captain, I am willing!"
Both of them were choked with sobs. Lu Yuan quickly wiped his eyes and said, "What are you talking about? Let's continue drinking!"
Lu Yuan took the bottle and drank it directly. John also wiped his face and raised his head to drink.
"Did someone tell me that that bastard actually had a first mate a long time ago! This made me so angry...Haha, I really wanted to run away at that time!..."
The two of them were talking and drinking, and soon, empty wine bottles were littered up and down the stairs on the stern of the ship. Li Huamei's eyes were red and swollen, and she had secretly cried a few times while the two were chatting.
"Captain..." I don't know how much time has passed. John seemed to be tired. His speaking speed became slower and slower, and the intervals between his words became longer and longer. The whole person seemed to be very tired and wanted to fall asleep, leaning against Lu Yuan. On his shoulder, he murmured as if talking in his sleep, "My... crew..."
"Leave it to me." Lu Yuan said firmly in a low voice.
"Then I...I'm...relaxed. I'm...sorry..." John smiled.
His voice gradually dropped, and he said intermittently, "The sky... is so blue..."
