Chapter 161
"trya week without railway!!!" (a week without railway)
This huge white cloth was hung in the empty waiting hall of the Chicago train station, silently protesting.
Apparently the train station workers went on strike en masse, leaving a mess around the place with confetti, placards and drink cans flying everywhere.
Life is not easy. Since the people above do not give them a way to survive, these migrant workers will naturally not give them a way to survive. It depends on who can't hold on first.
A few hours before Chu Zihang and the others arrived at the train station, all the employees of the Chicago Railway Bureau finished the parade, and then they all went home, and they would not come again for a week.
They went on strike.
What a friendly word, but it doesn't feel good when something like this happens when it's really related to yourself.
It's like going to the bank to withdraw money, and then the bank's employees go on strike, and the money he deposited cannot be withdrawn.
This is the situation now. The cc1000 branch line express train is operated by the college itself, but there is no switchman and dispatch center, so all trains have to be suspended.
"Oh, Shet, why don't you have good luck going out with you on a mission."
Caesar looked at Chu Zihang angrily. He still remembered the experience of being pushed to the police station not long ago, which was really unforgettable for life.
Thinking that he was a dignified Italian nobleman, but was arrested by a small police station in a city, those mixed-race nobles would all laugh when he said that.
"Well, before waiting for the bus, you two, can you give me a little support for the humble me."
Fingel rubbed two fingers and squeezed between the two, which meant it was self-evident.
Then he was dragged away by the irritable Xia Mi.
Odin ran away, the 'Wind King' left, these cunning guys ran away one after another, there must be some discussion behind them, but she didn't know anything about it.
All she can do now is to keep a close eye on Chu Zihang, as long as she holds this key piece, there will always be a chance to meet again.
Lu Mingfei took a phone call before boarding the plane, and then left. It was impossible for Xia Mi to follow without Chu Zihang, so he was very irritable on the way to Kassel College.
And where is Lu Mingfei at this time?
The north wind blows and sweeps the world, but why is it called the north wind, because the wind blowing from here can be called the north wind.
Antarctica, the southernmost part of the planet, geographically speaking, going out from this area is the north, and the wind howling here is naturally only the north wind.
After communicating with Odin and Xia Mi, he originally planned to go back to the academy as planned and have a face-to-face conversation with Principal Angers about the Solomon Temple.
Not only this organization that enslaves the dragons, but also the promotion of the original god's path, these things must be resolved quickly, and time does not allow him to change slowly.
Unexpectedly, Lao Tang, who was far away in Antarctica, called at this time. The plan encountered a bottleneck, and they lacked the most critical technology.
Lu Mingfei knew what kind of technique it was, but he wasn't very good at it either. Originally, he planned to go back at this time, but he didn't expect to rush into a bunch of things.
So he thought for a long time, anyway, his recruitment task in Huaxia had been completed, so he bid farewell to the trip with Chu Zihang and the others, and went to Antarctica by boat alone.
This is the first day of going to Antarctica, and I took a scientific research ship in the scientific research organization that Su Enxi paid for in full.
The sea is calm, the sky is clear, er, the sky is clear one second, and the next second is cloudy, and the turbulent waves are shaking the huge scientific research ship.
Although Lu Mingfei doesn't get seasick, he still regrets the journey ahead.
No one can accept this changing sea.
"Mr. Lu, hurry up and get into the cabin, there will be a heavy rain soon."
A sailor was panting heavily, with his hands on his knees and an anxious expression on his face.
Lu Mingfei was specially arranged by the big boss behind him. If something happened to him, he would probably resign and leave.
Can you be in a hurry?
Who would be in a hurry with money? You must know that the salary of the sailors on this scientific research ship is twice that of their peers, and the work is still relatively small, and they are taking the safe channel opened up by the predecessors.
It is safe and comfortable, and the salary is not bad. If you want to find such a good job, you will have to smoke your ancestors.
"I'm coming."
Lu Mingfei stopped looking, waved at the sailor a few times, and exited the deck.
Stepping into the cabin, the humidity of the sea breeze faded away, and it was replaced by the warmth of the flames.
A group of crew members sat around the stove, and there was a pot hanging on the stove. There was a burst of umami smell from the pot. It was the seafood that was salvaged this morning, and it was absolutely authentic and delicious.
These crews come from all over the world, from burly men in tartan skirts in Scotland to Vikings surfing the oceans of Iceland to Germans drinking beer from liter glasses in Germany.
Of course, Huaxia, which has a vast land and abundant resources, is also indispensable. The captain of this scientific research ship is an authentic Huaxia. He was born as a coastal fisherman and has been dealing with the ocean all his life.
He has flowed through all four oceans, and he has even been to the Antarctic Ocean, which was divided after 2000. Several scientific research stations on Antarctica were sent by his team.
"Our distinguished guest is here, we were talking about you just now."
The burly and strong old man stood up. There was no mistake. The captain was an old man who was nearly retired. Only such an old man who had been at sea all year round could understand the temper of the sea.
The old man raised the wine glass and gave it to Lu Mingfei. On the ocean in the last century, only wine could warm the body.
The clear wine has a tangy aroma of grain. This is definitely an authentic grain wine.
"What is the captain talking about about me?"
Lu Mingfei took a sip lightly, his voice was really spicy, this must be the wine brewed by the captain himself.
"Let's talk about you, a distinguished guest, why you want to go to Antarctica. The best time for scientific research in Antarctica is from November to March of the following year. At this time, the weather in Antarctica is extremely daylight.
If you go to Antarctica now, it will be a long polar night, and you will not be able to do outdoor scientific research at all.
If it is to appreciate the polar environment, then going to the North Pole should be the best, not only the beautiful polar environment, but also the cultural landscapes of different styles. "
The captain sat down with a glass of wine, and motioned for Lu Mingfei to sit on the vacant side of the stove, which was reserved for Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei was also polite, and sat down directly with a glass of wine, enjoying the roasting of the flames.
"I just want to go to Antarctica and visit my friends by the way. I have a friend who happens to be in Antarctica."
"As expected of a distinguished guest, there are friends in the scientific research station."
The crew members seemed to have misunderstood something, thinking that Lu Mingfei had friends at the Antarctic scientific research station.
But it's not. Lu Mingfei's friends are deeper under the ice, and these crew members may have seen them before. After all, there were a lot of people at the beginning, so Su Enxi bought this organization.
Thousands of mixed races, as well as the revived dragon race, must have a formally qualified scientific research team if they want to be brought to Antarctica without anyone noticing.
These crew members may have seen the half-breed race they were transporting at the beginning, but they must have undergone brainwashing after they left, forgetting everything about the half-breed race.
"I have nothing to talk about, but Captain, you have been to so many places and traveled all the seas, and you must have experienced many amazing adventures.
These stories must be very wonderful, I wonder if the captain is interested in telling them, let me listen carefully. "
The captain took a big sip of his wine, then slapped the seat, and looked at his crew with a big laugh.
"You guys see clearly, this is a cultural person, how do you usually talk to me, now learn a little bit."
His younger brothers from all over the world all showed awkward smiles, their expressions seemed to have been rehearsed thousands of times, and they were surprisingly consistent.
My heart said, Boss, aren’t you just like this?
Isn't there an old saying in China, those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black, you, the boss, brought us out.
Of course, they would not speak out what was on their minds. The crew members quickly spoke their not-so-fluent Chinese and nodded their heads, "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes."
"Speaking of this amazing story, I have really experienced a lot, after all, I have dealt with the sea since I was a child.
For example, when I was at sea in 75, I suddenly encountered a typhoon. The boats at that time were not like the boats now.
At that time, the captain who took me left everyone directly, and the lifeboat jumped into the sea, causing the whole ship to panic. "
The captain stroked his white beard, as if lamenting the severity of the typhoon.
"I can live here, which naturally means that I survived the typhoon. As for the reason, the boat was blown apart, and I happened to be holding a piece of wood.
I floated with the board in my arms, thinking that I was going to die of thirst and starvation at sea, but at this time, a scientific research ship happened to pass by, and I was rescued by the scientific research ship going to the North Pole. "
"I know I know."
Before the captain could speak, a crew member raised his hand vigorously.
"The captain has told this story hundreds of times, and I can recite it backwards."
What greeted him was not the captain's praise, but the captain's hard work, and the straight shot of the strong Viking was dizzy.
"The captain is speaking, don't interrupt randomly."
The old captain was furious. The atmosphere he created with great difficulty was suddenly disrupted.
He coughed, quickly returned to the state of telling stories, and tried to lower his voice to create a terrifying atmosphere.
"Those were two weird scientific research ships, one named Ghost and the other named Terror, I was rescued by their captain Franklin.
These are two scientific research ships sailing from the UK. They use extremely old wooden sailing structures. They are well-deserved heavyweight ships in the 19th century and ancient treasures in the 21st century.
The modified hull of the mortar ship can theoretically withstand the impact of polar sea ice, equipped with a steam engine disassembled from a large train, and can sail at a speed of up to four knots even in a windless environment .
There was the most advanced distilled water system on board at that time, and it was also equipped with food that could last for three years, and even 1200 books were installed to pass the time for the crew.
After I was rescued by them, I joined them on this arctic adventure, which was really an amazing and terrifying adventure. "
He wanted to continue, but another active crew member interrupted his story.
"Captain, we have told you that these two ships are both from the 19th century, and the Captain Franklin you mentioned died a long time ago in that adventure in the 19th century.
Captain, you were born in the 20th century, don't tell me you can turn back time.
What's more, the ship you were on was not in British waters, so how could you encounter a scientific research ship departing from the UK. "
"Hey, hey, this is telling a story, telling a story!"
The old captain was so angry that he cursed at these naughty boys, and then drove them out one by one, and opened the door to let them in after a while.
It was a stormy time outside, how could he have the heart for these kids to suffer from the cold outside.
"It's okay, I really want to hear about your future adventures."
Lu Mingfei is very interested. The Tivat Continent is a continent, and there is no north and south poles of the planet.
It is the False Heaven and the elemental power that maintains the ecological balance of the Tivat continent. The so-called arctic adventure is impossible in the Tivat continent.
"Let the distinguished guests laugh, these boys have stayed with me for a long time, and they are not big or small."
The old captain sat down again, and stared at the crew viciously at first, telling them that if he continued to talk nonsense, he would definitely eat them.
"Speaking of this magical story, it was really the weirdest adventure in my life, which made me dare not go to the North Pole by that waterway.
As for the characters and the names of the two ships in the story, I also checked after I came back, and it is indeed something that happened in the 19th century, but I feel that I have really experienced it.
Forget it, who would believe such a bizarre thing, I will continue to talk about what happened afterwards. "
The old captain talked a lot on his own, and even the seafood soup on the stove was ready before he held a bowl of hot seafood and began to tell the unforgettable story.
In the heat of the seafood soup, a bizarre past was recalled.
"Captain Franklin is a very nice person, he doesn't mind at all that I'm a shipwrecked sailor, and the crew members who went to explore new waterways together don't mind me as a Chinese.
They were even very surprised that there were yellow people in the sea here, all kinds of fresh water resources and food were supplied to me without limit, and they didn't ask me to do anything.
I can speak English. People who could not speak English at sea in the 20th century were shot to death long ago, so I can communicate normally with these crew members.
I learned a lot of knowledge from them, which is the navigation knowledge of the great voyage period, and I also learned about their mission this time, to discover a new channel, a channel through the Arctic Ocean.
This is the famous Northwest Passage of later generations, the fast passage from Europe to Asia, and it is also a road of death.
The labyrinth-like arctic ocean hides countless secrets, just like the evil spirits in the Inuit population, they really exist. "
The captain took a sip of hot soup to dispel the coldness in his heart.

"trya week without railway!!!" (a week without railway)
This huge white cloth was hung in the empty waiting hall of the Chicago train station, silently protesting.

A few hours before Chu Zihang and the others arrived at the train station, all the employees of the Chicago Railway Bureau finished the parade, and then they all went home, and they would not come again for a week.
They went on strike.
What a friendly word, but it doesn't feel good when something like this happens when it's really related to yourself.
It's like going to the bank to withdraw money, and then the bank's employees go on strike, and the money he deposited cannot be withdrawn.
