The smell of burnt corpses filled the air, and the surroundings were filled with smoke from the remains of the fire. It was a nightmare scene.
Teng Qingshan was reading the words in the book.
"Now I know that the language of the Northern Sea Continent is different from the language of the Land of the Nine Prefectures. However, I'm still worried about one thing … the language of the Land of the Nine Prefectures is not the same as the language of the Northern Sea Continent!" Teng Qingshan was a little worried.
When Li Jun heard this, she hastily said, "That's right. It is said that even some of the kingdoms in the Western Region of the Land of the Nine Prefectures speak differently from the people of the Nine Prefectures. This Northern Sea Continent … is much farther than the Western Region. "
Teng Qingshan nodded.
Even in the Nine States, although the same language was used, there were still regional differences in different places.
"Big Brother Teng!" Li Jun hastily comforted him, "However, you don't have to worry too much. The distance between the Bright Moon Island and the Land of the Nine Prefectures is extremely far. However, the words of the Bright Moon Island are the same as the words of the Nine Prefectures. Perhaps the Northern Sea Continent is like this! "
Teng Qingshan took the incomplete book and said with a smile, "What am I worried about? At most, I'll spend some time to learn again! "
In his previous life, as a super assassin in the underworld, Teng Qingshan was proficient in several languages. In terms of language learning, he had undergone forced training by the assassin organization. Teng Qingshan had also learned some tricks.
"Learn?" Li Jun nodded and giggled, "It shouldn't be as difficult as learning the Language of Beasts! I can learn the beast language in a few months, so I can definitely learn the language of the Northern Sea Continent very quickly. "
"Alright, let's go! He doesn't know how to read, so it's useless even if he gets a book. "Teng Qingshan directly took the incomplete book with him.
Immediately, Teng Qingshan and Li Jun walked towards the tungsten wood vessel.
When they came here, Teng Qingshan and Li Jun followed the human residences. As for Teng Qingshan, he left in a straight line. He cut his way through the thistles and thorns as he rushed towards the direction of the tungsten wood vessel.
Moments later.
"Hmm? There's a colony here? "Teng Qingshan looked at the empty field in front of him. There were many burnt wooden houses and corpses all over the ground.
"Those people are too ruthless. They don't even spare the elderly, women, and children." Li Jun clenched her fists, her face filled with anger.
"There's still someone alive!" Teng Qingshan's eyes suddenly lit up. He could feel the faint breathing sound.
"There's a living one?" Li Jun was also shocked.
"Yes." Teng Qingshan's gaze fell on a few corpses at the side of a dilapidated wooden house in front of him. He immediately walked over and lifted the top two corpses. He found a skinny, pale little girl with a scar on her face.
The tattered cotton-padded jacket still had bloodstains on it.
With Teng Qingshan's acute senses, he could hear the weak breathing clearly. Teng Qingshan stretched out his palm and placed it on the little girl's back. A gentle blue light flowed into the little girl's body.
The Internal Supreme Force, in terms of nourishing one's health, assisted in healing the body. It was even better than the Innate True Origin.
"Yes." The little girl's complexion, which was as pale as a corpse's, became slightly better. However, it was still very pale. She let out a weak sound through her nose. His mouth, which had turned white from thirst, opened.
"Little Jun, bring some water," Teng Qingshan said.
Li Jun was still standing at the side. Teng Qingshan couldn't help but turn his head and see Li Jun biting her lips with red eyes.
"Little Jun?" Teng Qingshan shouted again.
Li Jun immediately woke up.
"Go get some water," Teng Qingshan ordered. He knew that it was better for Li Jun not to think too much at this moment. "Okay, okay." Li Jun hastily looked around and quickly saw a wooden barrel not far away. There was still water in the barrel.
A woman was lying on the ground beside the wooden barrel.
Li Jun immediately used a ladle to scoop up some water and trotted over. She was very careful not to spill the water.
"Big Brother Teng, is she alright?" Li Jun asked worriedly.
"It's not a big problem. She was stabbed in the back. Fortunately, her physique is good. The wound healed quickly and the blood loss wasn't too much. She survived. "Teng Qingshan said as he carefully poured water into the little girl's mouth.
The little girl unconsciously opened her mouth and drank some water.
"Look at the surroundings. The blood hasn't completely dried up. They probably died only two to four hours ago. " Teng Qingshan looked at the little girl and said, "Although the wound doesn't bleed fast, she would have died if we came an hour later."
Actually, if it wasn't for Teng Qingshan's sensitive six senses, he would have walked past.
The little girl would have died without a sound.
"Chichi ~ ~" A ray of aqua blue light appeared on the little girl's body and then hid inside.
"Yes. It's about time. " Teng Qingshan withdrew his right hand from the little girl's back and said, "She's not a big problem now. She just needs to eat something and replenish her blood essence. She will recover soon."
Teng Qingshan stood up.
Li Jun squatted down and supported the little girl.
"The people who died on this island probably have some background. Otherwise, the enemy wouldn't have used a warship to come and kill them. " Teng Qingshan glanced at the little girl and said, "This little girl's clothes are tattered. Her face is sallow and emaciated. There's even a scar on her face. Obviously, she doesn't have a good life. On this island, she's probably at the bottom. "
At this moment.
The little girl's eyelids twitched. Then, she slowly opened her eyes. Her bright eyes looked at the man and woman in front of her with fear. When she saw the corpses at the side, she seemed to recall what had happened earlier. Her eyes suddenly widened.
Her eyes were filled with fear and her body was trembling.
"Ahhh." Like a mute person screaming, the little girl pushed Li Jun's hand away and retreated. This violent movement caused the wound on her back to split open again and blood flowed out.
The little girl didn't seem to feel the pain. She looked at Teng Qingshan and Li Jun with fear in her eyes.
"Don't move." In her eyes, the tall man dashed to her side and poked her back a few times.
"This little girl is too frightened." Teng Qingshan looked at the little girl and shook his head.
"Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid. " Li Jun walked over and held the little girl's hand. She used her other hand to gently wipe the little girl's dirty face. The little girl seemed to be slightly frightened, but she didn't dare to resist and let Li Jun wipe her face.
Li Jun looked at the little girl with gentle eyes.
She seemed to feel the kindness of the other party and gradually relaxed.
"Big Brother Teng, let's take her away?" Li Jun raised her head and said.
Teng Qingshan looked at Li Jun.
"The people around her are all dead. Her parents and relatives are probably all dead as well." Li Jun said softly. When the little girl heard these words, tears rolled down her cheeks. Droplets of tears continuously rolled down her cheeks.
Seeing this scene, Li Jun felt even more distressed. "She's all alone now. If we don't help her, how can she survive alone on this island?"
"Alright, let's take her. When we reach the shore of the Northern Sea Continent, we'll settle her down. " Teng Qingshan didn't refuse.
Li Jun carried the little girl and walked towards the tungsten wood vessel with Teng Qingshan.
… …
On the tungsten wood vessel, the little girl shrank in the corner of the vessel in fear.
"Let's go!"
Teng Qingshan put away the iron anchor, grabbed the two long oars, and started rowing. Just by looking at the two thick and strong oars, one could feel that … without the strength of several tens of thousands of Jin, one wouldn't even be able to row it once.
However, Teng Qingshan lifted the heavy oars with ease. This scene caused the little girl in the corner to widen her eyes.
"Screech ~ ~ screech ~ ~" The Blue Luan lightly flapped its wings on the deck and spread its tail feathers, as if displaying its beauty. The little girl couldn't help but look over.
"Eat something." Li Jun walked out of the cabin with a freshly heated steamed bun in her hands.
She still had the pastries she brought from Bright Moon Island. Fortunately, the dried pastries could be placed for a long time. However, even if the meat buns were placed carefully, most of them were already spoiled. The steamed bun could still be eaten.
When the little girl saw the steamed bun, she immediately grabbed it and ate it with big bites.
"Don't choke, drink some water." Li Jun handed over a cup.
In front of the little girl, Li Jun was unprecedentedly gentle. She was like a big sister caring for her little sister. After eating three steamed buns in one go, the little girl's complexion became much better. She looked at Teng Qingshan and Li Jun with a curious gaze.
"Don't be afraid. If you're tired, go and sleep for a while." Li Jun said softly.
"Haha …" Teng Qingshan, who was rowing the oars, laughed, "Little Jun, this little girl might not be able to understand what we're saying. You're telling her so much … .What's the use if she doesn't understand? "
Li Jun smiled and didn't say anything. At the same time, she put the plate to the side and sat on the deck, holding the little girl's hand.
It seemed as if they were sending a friendly message through the handshake.
"Thank, thank you big sister, uncle!" A very soft voice sounded on the deck.
Silence!
The lazy Blue Luan also turned to look at the little girl. The expressions of Teng Qingshan, who was rowing the oars, and Li Jun, who was holding the little girl's hand, instantly froze.
"I understand!" Teng Qingshan was overjoyed.
"We understand!" Teng Qingshan was both shocked and pleasantly surprised. The distance between the Northern Sea Continent and the Continent of the Nine Prefectures was very far.
However, the language was actually the same!
The little girl's pronunciation of 'big sister, uncle' was very clear. It was completely the language of the Nine Prefectures. Although it had some local characteristics, it didn't sound strenuous at all! One could understand immediately.
Teng Qingshan didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he called Li Jun big sister and himself 'uncle'. He was only nineteen years old! However, Teng Qingshan was still very excited in his heart.
If he could understand what they were saying, it would be much less troublesome to travel in the Northern Sea Continent in the future.
"This is good news." Teng Qingshan smiled.
"Yes, I understand. It will be more convenient in the future." Li Jun was also very happy.
"You can speak?" Li Jun looked at the little girl in surprise.
From the beginning until now, she hadn't spoken a word.
The little girl looked at Teng Qingshan and Li Jun, not knowing what to do. Wasn't she just expressing her gratitude? If they could understand her words, why were they so surprised? Could it be … that they couldn't understand? The little girl had a lot of doubts in her heart.
"Yes." The little girl was a little scared, but she still said softly.
"Why didn't you speak before?" Li Jun asked in surprise.
The little girl said in a low voice, "I, I was afraid that you were sent by the Chunshen Clan. I only realized after boarding the boat that there were only two of you. Not a large group of people from the Chunshen Clan. "
