"Auntie, how are you? Do you have any news about your father?" Justine followed Marquise Taxis as she wandered around the Marquis Mansion. However, she was obviously not paying attention to the surrounding scenery and wanted to ask her about it soon. A word from the Marchioness of Xixis. "There should be news soon! Just wait a little longer and Chris will be back!" Taxis didn't know how many times she had said this to Justine, and her head was spinning. For Professor Hutton, Taxis Si was also anxious. Chris hadn't come back for so long. It was obvious that things were going to be bad. Sure enough, Chris hurried over and whispered in Taksis¡¯s ear. "What?!" Marquise Taxis was listening to Chris' report when she suddenly screamed. "What's wrong? Aunt, what's wrong?" Justine heard the Marquise Taxis's scream and asked anxiously. "You go down first!" Marquise Taxis ordered to Chris. "Yes, ma'am!" Chris excused himself. "Auntie, what happened to my father?" Justine asked Marquise Taxis by the arm. "Alas!" Marquise Taxis sighed, and stopped shaking the small fan in her hand. She looked into Justine's eyes and said, "Your father was really involved in the theft case in Istanbul. ! And all the evidence proves that your father is the thief!" "Ah?" Justine was shocked, "Father will definitely not do that!" "Are you sure? The Marquise rubbed her forehead, "Don't forget your father's character!" "This" Justine didn't know what to say. She had always known her father's character. If you really find something incredible, you will definitely do everything possible to get it and study it. ¡ ¡ Li Si looked at the old man who was naturally sitting on the stool talking to him. The old man's hair was gray and neatly combed. The gray beard on his face was also neatly trimmed. As a typical European old man, he had dark skin and his face was already full of wrinkles. Li Si estimated that the old man must be in his sixties or seventies. "It's hard to explain in one sentence!" Li Si did not avoid anything, except for some crucial things. Li Si told the old man how he went to America, how he became a consul, and how he returned to Europe. These things will definitely spread throughout Europe soon, and Li Si has no intention of hiding it. "Columbus of Spain said that the continent was India, and the place he arrived at was the West Indies. This is actually not correct!" Li Si looked at the old man and said slowly: "That continent is a brand new continent, and there is also a group of native people on it. According to my current understanding, there are probably between 30 million and 40 million aborigines. "There are actually so many people?" the old man asked in disbelief. "Of course, that continent is huge, even bigger than Europe!" Li Si gestured, "It's the same there. There are hundreds of tribes. They are still in a semi-agricultural and semi-nomadic society, and each tribe has them. A unique cultural system, there are now three great empires on that continent. No, it should be four now." "That's right, the first three empires have a long history. The Ztec Empire, the Mayan Empire, the Inca Empire, and the fourth one were established not long ago, called the American Republic!" Li Si introduced the imperial civilization in America to the old man. "The American Republic? Is the civilization there so advanced?" The old man was shocked by the last republic, "Is it the same as the Republic of Venice?" "Haha, actually that republic is my masterpiece!" Li Si thought He felt very proud when he got up, "They are almost the same, Venice is a republic of nobles, while America is a republic of elders, a country jointly established by several tribes!" "Oh? You did it? Haha, you have the ability, you have the ability!" The old man was surprised when he heard Li Si's words, smiled and praised him repeatedly. "Haha, thank you!" Li Si continued to tell the old man: "There are many novel crops there, such as corn, cocoa, agave, and some beans and potato crops, all of which taste good! These are all grown by them, and they even worship a god called the Corn God!" "What? The Corn God?" The old man's eyes widened, "What kind of god is that?" "Haha, it's probably the god in charge of corn. , Haha" Li Si actually didn't know much about it, "The civilization there has now developed to a very high level, especially the spiritual civilization, which is much ahead of Europe. I heard that the mysterious god The mysterious Mayan Empire¡¯s astronomy and calendar are thousands of years ahead of Europe today!¡± ¡°Astronomy and calendar¡±?So powerful? "The old man's face was full of disbelief, "Europe has only recently proposed the heliocentric theory and the round earth theory. How do the Mayans you mentioned, who don't even have a large ship for long voyages, know about it? " "This, I am not very clear about. The Mayan Empire is too mysterious. The only time I have seen it is the battle between the Mayans and the Aztecs. However, I only saw a few clues about the Mayan Empire, but there is no more. I don¡¯t understand that the Mayans were a bit xenophobic. "Li Si looked helpless when talking about the Mayans. "Exclusive, ancient, mysterious, this Mayan empire is really full of secrets! "The old man sighed with longing. "Do you know? On that ancient continent, there are many incredible buildings, such as the pyramids several hundred meters high, which are really amazing! There are no iron weapons on that continent! "Li Si admired the ancient Indians very much, "They didn't even invent the wheel, and they didn't have large livestock. They built the magnificent pyramid entirely by manpower! " "What? ! "This time the old man was really shocked. He stood up suddenly and said, "I really want to see it with my own eyes! " "Old man, don't get excited. Li Si pressed the old man on the stool, "You will always have a chance to see these. Then you can try their unique feather crown, it is very unique!" " "oh? Haha, I am excited! If that wasn't the case, though, I'd really want to check it out! "The old man calmed down after sitting down, but he slowly told his experience. "The old man became a sailor when he was just fifteen years old, and followed an old captain on adventures everywhere. When he was young, he loved adventures, and once They are proud of the old captain and explorers. They have searched for many ancient ruins and explored the customs and customs of various parts of Europe. They have been to the northernmost point of Europe and encountered Viking pirates in the North Sea. Having arrived at the southern tip of Africa, the old man was full of praise when talking about Africa, "Africa is a very magical place. There is a huge animal there with a long nose that can move the earth when it walks!" It's amazing! " The old man seemed very excited when he talked about what happened in Africa. "There, the old captain was attacked by a lion. Although we tried our best to drive away the lion, the old captain was bitten to pieces, wuwu~~" the old man said Finally, I choked up. ¡°Old man, the old captain just went to serve God, you should be happy for him! " "yes! The old captain is a very respectable priest! "The old man wiped his eyes, "Since then, I have taken over the old captain's position, and have been exploring ancient ruins and miracles of nature with the old captain's dream" "The fleet has also changed from a small boat before. "We became three medium-sized expedition sailing ships. Everything was fine originally, but during a voyage three years ago, we encountered a mirage." The old man continued: "The mirage was very real. Whether it was water patterns or sea breeze, everything was different." It's very true, I firmly believe that we have reached a new sea! " "But, it turned out that I was wrong. Two of our ships hit the rocks and sank, and one of them was stranded on the rocks." The old man said a little disappointed at the end. "After that, I returned to Venice and came to Marquis Grant's house. At home, until now. " "Then you never thought of going out to see the world now? Li Si's brain was spinning rapidly, "Don't you want to see the things in the New World?" " "I" The old man was a little moved, but still hesitant. "If the old captain is still here, I think he will definitely go to the New World to see that magical continent. It will definitely be what the old captain hopes to see! "Li Si's eyes flashed with inexplicable brilliance. "You don't have to dwell on the past. Anything you encounter on the sea is possible. Like me, I was taken to the New World by a big whirlpool. It was really a magical experience. ! Li Si felt incredible when he thought of the Maelstrom. "Hey, boy, just say what you want to say!" "The old man suddenly made a big change. Hehehe made a sound, with a hint of cunning in his narrowed eyes. "Uh! "Li Si was suffocated by the old man's sudden change. He looked at the old man in surprise, and then he was relieved. The old man had heard what he meant. Li Si smiled sheepishly at the old man and said, "You said that you once commanded three Ships, and with rich adventure and sailing experience, I am wondering if I can recruit you to be the chief helmsman of my fleet. " "You really want me to be the helmsman? The old man looked at Li Si seriously, "You must know that I once brought all three ships to the reef area!" " "I don't think you'll fall down twice in the same place, right? " "Hahahaha, young man, I'm optimistic about you! "The old man laughed. "What about you? ¡± "I agree!" Ding! System prompt: The epic navigator Amerigo Vespucci wants to join your fleet. Do you agree? "What? Epic Navigator?" Li Si was stunned by the system prompt, "Epic Navigator, any old man you meet is an Epic Navigator. Is this game still the same game that I knew before? ?¡± (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
