Chapter279 【Bernard's Diary No. 4】
"In the year 1515 of the Great Navigation Calendar, on the third day of the spring tide month, the weather was cloudy.
It's spring again.
Every spring, I feel restless because I am afraid of dreaming.
Fortunately, I haven't dreamed about Him for several months.
Maybe my mission is over?
His deal with me has come to an end.
I hope so.
The construction of Tut has been good recently. Since the fog dissipated, the weather here has been getting better day by day, and the soil on the island has become fertile. Slowly, many businessmen from the South China Sea have come to do business. Loit in the north
There are people here, and I haven't been back to Innsmouth for a long time.
Maybe it's because I really don't want to sleep on His territory.
But Mi Dou may miss the forest there a little. These days, it always looks towards the west, maybe I should take it back to have a look."
"In the year 1515 of the Calendar of Discovery, in the month of the spring tide, on the seventh day, the weather was fine.
It was a rare good weather. I originally wanted to take Mi Dou to the beach for fishing, but Affleck came to me and said that someone from Leuthe in the north was sent by the envoy of Viscount Adam Sandro, the lord over there.
Invited me to Leuthe to attend the Karabis Sea Business Conference he held.
To be honest, I don't want to go, but I can't help it. After all, I am no longer alone, and I am not just the captain of the Bell and Wine Glass. I am also a lord, and there are so many people under me to feed.
We have to go and see if we can open up the trade line with the north, but the plan to bring rice and beans back to Innsmouth is going to be ruined. It won't lose its temper, will it?"
"In the year 1515 of the Great Navigation Calendar, in the month of spring tide, on the 13th, it rained lightly.
It's raining again. Rain is always the norm in spring in Xihai. The wet feeling makes me very uncomfortable. Every time at this time, I miss my hometown of Erwin, where it is sunny and windy all year round.
Forget it, I don’t know when I can go back, so I don’t want to.
Today I have basically prepared everything for the long journey, including a boat, the Bell and Wineglass, and my old friends, Mi Dou and Tut, who were handed over to the new guy named Rush from the South China Sea.
He is a distant relative of Affleck. He is very capable. I feel at ease. I have to take Affleck with me no matter what. He is like my left and right hands. Without him, I don’t know what to do with many things.
This time, we have to face Viscount Adam, the Fox of Calabis, who is always known for his cunning. I really don’t know what his plans are.
hope everything is fine."
"In the year 1515 of the Great Navigation Calendar, on the twenty-fifth day of the spring tide month, it rained heavily.
The rain today was surprisingly heavy. It was not like the amount of rain that should occur in spring. The wind on the sea was also very strong. The whole ship was constantly bumping. Although I was used to the days at sea, I was still a little dizzy from being bumped.
I'm feeling dizzy, and I'm dreaming again.
After all, there is still no escape.
He came to me again.
This time the dream was still bizarre. I dreamed that I was walking on an island like a mountain, and then suddenly something climbed up from the soil. They had the appearance of humans, but they were completely decomposed. They were basically corpses, but these corpses were
It seemed to be attacking me with powerful vitality.
I fought with these corpses, but more corpses climbed up from the soil, and in the end I had no choice but to escape.
I kept running up the mountain until I reached the top of the mountain. I saw corpses crawling all over the mountain, and they were rushing towards me.
I looked at the sea, which reflected the entire island, making it look like a huge tomb.
I don’t understand what this means, but you don’t need to think about it to know that a new danger is coming. What will I lose this time?”
"In the year 1515 of the Great Navigation Calendar, it rained on the twenty-seventh day of the spring tide month.
The rain was still falling, and the dream had deepened over the past two days, and I was a little stuck in it again. In the morning, Affleck came to call me, and I almost thought it was the living dead rising up from the soil again to grab my arm.
Affleck told me that Leutcher had arrived.
I walked to the deck with him and looked at the destination from a distance. The first time I saw it, I could tell that it was the huge tomb filled with the living dead that I had dreamed about in my dream.
But I wasn't too surprised anymore. I just looked at Affleck and didn't know what to say.
Affleck seemed to have understood something and said to me: It's okay, Captain, we will be fine, just like before.
When he said this, other old guys also came over.
It turns out that everyone already knew it.
Seeing their expressions of indifference, I felt deeply sorry.
When will I be able to escape this fate?"
When he saw this, Li Jiu was surprised. He never thought that the ancestor's diary this time was actually related to Leuthe.
And judging from the contents of the diary, it turned out that Leuthe was also Dalong's target back then.
And, Leuthe... it seems that the living dead really exist.
That is not a rumor or a legendary story from the past.
That book "Song of the Living Dead"...
Many thoughts flowed through Li Jiu's mind, and he continued to read the contents of the diary without stopping.
Later, large sections of the diary were missing and were not coherent.
What exactly happened after the ancestor arrived in Leuthe is no longer in the diary. What Li Jiu can see below is this content:
"...Adam really didn't have any good intentions, so I asked, how could he just want to do trade and gather all of us together?
Affleck also thought wrong. Adam didn't want to be the king of the West Sea. He wanted more. What he wanted was (I don't know if the text here was not written or for other reasons, but it became blank)
It turns out that this is why He asked me to come here.
But what can I do?
The whole Leutge has become a dead place, and I have been separated from Affleck and the others, and now only Mi Dou is left with me.
I'm going to die too.
This time, I finally can’t take anyone with me.”
"...I didn't expect that things would end like this in the end, everything was really like a dream.
I actually survived again.
But is it a good thing to survive?
Well, at least this time, I can take everyone back.
I really didn’t expect that I could take everyone back.
Finally, once, I did it.
But what about next time?
Forget it, don't think about it anymore, let's check the seal of that place again, hoping that no one will go there in the future.
And the Sandro family members...it's better not to kill them. Without that book, no one can step into that place again.
I don’t want to see dead people anymore, that’s it, enough people have died already.”
