    "My father died on Skull Island." After hearing what little Gary said and looking at the sad little Gary, everyone couldn't say anything for a moment.  "Little Gary, do you know how to get to Skull Island?" Seeing that everyone was embarrassed to ask, Xie Changyuan hugged little Gary and asked.  "I don't know, I just listened to what my grandfather said. Grandpa said it was a very scary place. My father died because he didn't listen to his advice." Little Gary said.  "So little Gary, where is your grandfather now?" Professor Charles asked. Now that he has got some clues, Professor Charles doesn't want it to be cut off just like that.  "Little Gary's grandfather lives in Mauritius now. When he arrives in Mauritius, I can take you to find him." Xie Changyuan replied.  "Thank you so much, Mr. Xie." Professor Charles said excitedly.  "It's nothing. If it weren't for you, Gary and I would still be floating on the sea." Xie Changyuan waved his hand and said.  Everyone was very happy to get some information about Skull Island. There is no specific address, but as Grandpa Gary who has lived in Mauritius his whole life, he should know the specific address of Skull Island.  Therefore, for a moment, Quick also accelerated the speed of the yacht and quickly approached Mauritius.  In this way, after half a day¡¯s work, everyone finally arrived in Mauritius.  The Republic of Mauritius is an island country in eastern Africa, located in the southwest of the Indian Ocean.  As a volcanic island country, Mauritius is surrounded by coral reefs. The island's landforms are diverse, with narrow plains along the coast and plateau mountains in the center.  There are several mountain ranges and isolated peaks, and the scenery is quite spectacular.  The entire country consists of the island of Mauritius and other small islands. There are about one million people living in Mauritius, mainly Indians and Creoles, and the rest are Chinese and Europeans.  The official language is English though.  But among Mauritians, not many speak English.  It is worth mentioning that Mauritius has a mild climate and beautiful scenery, so many tourists come here every year for vacation, and among these people, the largest number are Chinese.  Many Chinese settled in Mauritius after living for a period of time.  After the yacht approached Mauritius, Zhao Qi saw many people from various countries wearing swimsuits on the beach.  At the same time, I also saw many Chinese people, which made Zhao Qi feel a lot more friendly.  "Wow, I like this place." David appeared from nowhere, holding a pair of binoculars and looking at the various beauties on the beach.  "David, we have to stay here for at least a while, and you'll see when the time comes. Now we'd better go ashore early and send Gary and the others home." Zhao Qi said and pulled David back into the cabin.  After sailing for more than half a month, everyone began to feel dizzy as soon as they stepped onto stable land. It seemed that the long period of turbulence had made them accustomed to this feeling.  On the contrary, I am not used to the land.  The two ladies, Bonnie and Lily, suffered even more. They vomited and became confused as soon as they set foot on land. Zhao Qi and David hurriedly stepped forward to help them.  "Professor Charles. Thank you again for saving us. I will go and book a place for you to live now. You can have a good rest today." Xie Yuan got off the yacht and said to Professor Charles.  "Okay, thank you very much." Professor Charles said with a smile.  "It's nothing. I will send little Gary home now, and then I will talk to Gary's grandfather." Xie Changyuan naturally knew the purpose of Zhao Qi and his party, so he spoke out first.  Xie Changyuan lives not very far from the beach. He returned in less than half an hour and brought a commercial vehicle with him.  "Professor Charles, please go to the hotel now." Xie Changyuan got out of the car and said to Zhao Qi and his party.  Mauritius is a country dominated by tourism.  Naturally, a lot of effort has been put into the hotel.  Although the hotel Xie Changyuan found was not a five-star hotel, it was very comfortable in terms of environment.  After things at the hotel were settled, it was already around five or six in the afternoon, and Xie Changyuan took eight people to have a meal of quite unique Mauritian cuisine.  "Professor Charles, you should have a good rest tonight. I will come over tomorrow morning to take you to see Gary's grandfather. At the same time, if you have anything, you can also call me." After dinner,  Xie Changyuan handed a few business cards to everyone and then went home alone.  After a long sea journey, many peopleThe young people were a little tired, and since the news about Skull Island had been obtained, Gary's grandfather would naturally not leave, so everyone was not in a hurry tonight and had a good rest in the hotel.  Early the next morning, Xie Changyuan came to the hotel early and led everyone to go find Gary's grandfather.  In Xie Yuanyuan¡¯s car, everyone also inquired about some of the conditions at Grandpa Gary¡¯s home.  ¡°Little Gary¡¯s grandfather is a legend in Mauritius.¡± Xie Changyuan said.  "Back then, Mauritius was a British colony. It was not as prosperous as it is now. It could only be regarded as an ordinary island country. Most Mauritians made a living by fishing. At that time, Grandpa Gary was a very famous fisherman in the local area.  Expert, and he is also a very powerful poacher. "What is this?" David asked from behind the car.  "The Indian Ocean at that time was not as peaceful as it is now. In addition to some British warships, there were countless pirates roaming the Indian Ocean." Xie Changyuan's words immediately aroused everyone's interest.  "Pirates, are they Somali pirates?" Lily asked curiously. She had rested for the night and was recovering well at this time.  "There are also Somali pirates, but Somali pirates are just what everyone is familiar with now, and there are many more powerful pirates. These pirates not only rob the British army of supplies, but also attack the indigenous people of Mauritius. Often they go there.  "It's very abominable to have no chickens or dogs left." "Then there is no army in Mauritius?" David asked again.  "Mauritius was under British rule at that time, and the British would naturally not allow Mauritius to have its own armed forces." After saying this, Xie Changyuan suddenly realized that several of the eight people behind him were British, and he immediately  He turned around and smiled awkwardly.  "So in order to protect their villages from being invaded by pirates, many fishermen spontaneously organized and set up a 'poaching team' to fight against pirates, and Gary's grandfather was the captain of the 'poaching team'." Xie Changyuan spoke like a treasure trove.  said.  "So powerful. Although I have never seen a pirate, he must be the kind who kills without blinking an eye, right?" David asked in surprise.  "Absolutely. If the pirates invade the fishing village, it will be the same as the Japanese invaders entering the city. It is basically the 'Three Guangs Policy'." Xie Changyuan looked at Zhao Qi and said.  "What is the 'Three Guangs Policy'?" Several scholars who are familiar with history naturally would not ask these questions. This was asked by David on the side.  "Three Lights means kill them all, burn them all, and rob them all." Zhao Qi explained at the side.  "These pirates are so abominable." After hearing Zhao Qi's words, Quick said angrily.  He has been a mercenary for ten years, and he can be considered a very experienced person, but he will not kill innocent civilians wantonly, so he became so angry when he heard the cruel methods of these people.  "In fact, the British as colonizers are even more hateful." Zhao Qi said from the sidelines.  Several scientists suddenly became embarrassed after hearing Zhao Qi's words.  "Why? Although Britain colonized, it didn't kill people, right?" David asked puzzledly.  "They didn't kill many people, but they completely wiped out the Mauritian national culture. In some ways, colonization is more terrifying than genocide." Zhao Qi shook his head and said lightly.  As Zhao Qi's words fell, the car suddenly became quiet, but fortunately, Xie Yuanhua's home arrived in less than two minutes.  To be precise, it should be Gary's home.  "Okay, Gary's home has arrived, let's get out of the car." Xie Changyuan stopped the car and said to the people behind him.  At the door of Gary's house, Gary was walking out of the door when he heard the sound. When he saw Xie Changyuan, he rushed towards him. It seemed that the relationship between the two people was very deep.  "Let's go, Gary's grandfather is waiting for you at home." Xie Changyuan should be a regular visitor here. He opened the door and walked in, and everyone filed in one by one.  In the living room of the house, a tough old man was sitting on the seat, and there was a thick crutch beside him.  "Professor Charles, this is Gary's grandfather. Grandpa Gary, this is Professor Charles from England." Xie Changyuan acted as the middleman, introducing everyone to Grandpa Gary one by one.  "Hello, Professor Charles, thank you for saving little Gary." Grandpa Gary seemed to have difficulty with his legs and feet, so he always sat on a chair.  "This is nothing, we just happened to pass by." Professor Charles said.  "Your purpose of coming was already told to us last night when Chang Yuan sent little Gary back." Grandpa Gary said lightly.    "I do know where Skull Island is, and in the whole of Mauritius, there are no more than five people who know this island, and I happen to be one of them." "Then the old gentleman doesn't know if he can tell us what this place is.  Where?" Upon hearing Grandpa Gary's words, Professor Charles suddenly became excited and asked hurriedly.  "Before that, can I understand why you are going to Skull Island?" Grandpa Gary did not answer Professor Charles's words. Instead, he asked Professor Charles the purpose of his trip, and this question immediately made Professor Charles hesitate.  (To be continued.
