Looking at the blueprints spread out by the foreigners, Zhu Lin remained indifferent, but inwardly he thought that the paper used by the foreigners was actually made by the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, which suggested that the foreigners did not yet know how to make paper.
These papers should have been exchanged back from their Great Jin Dynasty.
However, the map is quite well drawn and looks very clear. It clearly marks the different parts of the island, where the entrances are, the mines, and the places where the Japanese lived.
However, the blueprints were written in foreign languages, so Zhu Lin couldn't understand the distorted, worm-like characters. He deduced it from the drawings on the blueprints; the foreigner's drawing skills were quite good.
Moreover, the other party did not use a brush, but rather a charcoal pencil that they picked up from somewhere, and the style of the drawing is very different from that of the Central Plains.
After studying the blueprints, Zhu Lin said that they could go ashore. They would go around to the other end of the mine, and after nightfall, they would sneak in and put the drug into the only two water sources on the island. After the islanders drank the water the next day, the drug would take effect, and then they could move out.
"The cliff behind the mine is very steep. It's almost impossible for us to climb up it. Let's find another place to get to the island." The foreigner broke out in a cold sweat. After looking at the blueprints, the young man decided to go up the cliff behind the mine. There was indeed no one guarding that cliff, and it would be much safer to climb up it.
The problem is that the cliff is not only steep, but also covered with moss and is extremely slippery due to the constant impact of the waves, making it impossible for ordinary people to climb up.
“You don’t need to persuade him anymore. If Brother Phosphorus says he can go up, then he can go up. There’s no need to question him,” Xingxing interrupted the person who was speaking.
Before the foreigner could say anything more, Zhu Lin glanced at him and said, "Shut up, don't say anything."
Suddenly, a clear bird song rang out from the sky, "Chirp chirp, twitter twitter twitter."
Zhu Lin looked up at the dozen or so snow hummingbirds circling in the air, whistled, and one of them landed on the edge of the boat, preened its feathers with its beak, and then looked at Zhu Lin innocently.
"Brother Phosphorus, is this the snow hummingbird you were talking about?" Xingxing ran over with bright eyes and reached out to touch the hummingbird, but was pecked instead. The peck was very light, like a tickle, and Xingxing giggled.
"I'm so cute, how could you still peck at me? I'll have Brother Phosphorus teach you a lesson later." Star chuckled to herself, not caring whether the hummingbird could understand her or not.
She has absolutely no resistance to these fluffy snowballs, especially when she sees the forked fan on the hummingbird's tail; she loves it so much and really wants to keep one by her side.
At this moment, Zhu Lin had already written a note on a thin piece of paper, then put it in a small tube, tied it to the snow hummingbird's leg, patted the hummingbird's back a couple of times, and then took out a handful of spirit rice from the brocade bag and sprinkled it into the air. More than a dozen hummingbirds quickly swooped down, and not a single grain of the spirit rice was wasted; it all went into the hummingbirds' bellies.
"It looks so small, yet it's so fast! Amazing!" Xingxing exclaimed in amazement, growing to like these birds even more.
The foreigners nearby were also stunned.
"The hummingbird is the fastest bird of all, especially when it's diving; its speed is unmatched," Zhu Lin explained in a low voice.
In fact, the snow hummingbird had found the two earlier and had been circling in the air for a long time. However, it just happened to encounter the Japanese and foreigners, and Zhu Lin had to deal with them. So, it was only now that he had time to meet with the hummingbird.
The snow hummingbirds of Fairy Mist Island are extremely intelligent. These snow hummingbirds were snow birds from the cultivation world that Zhu Lin captured from his space when he was a child, and were bred with forked fan hummingbirds to hatch them.
Therefore, snow hummingbirds only exist on Fairy Mist Island, and they all recognize Zhu Lin as their master. If they are looking for someone else, the hummingbird will immediately return after finding that person and then bring that person to search for the person they are looking for.
Only when their master, Zhu Lin, appears will they hover in the air for a long time, unwilling to leave, and will only leave after their master gives the order.
Originally, Zhu Lin didn't need to write the note, but considering the people on the island, it was necessary to write it, and he still needed the help of his senior brothers to make sure it went smoothly.
If it were up to him alone, killing everyone on the island wouldn't be a problem, but killing the Japanese and rescuing all the civilians unharmed would be quite difficult.
"What does a snowbird look like? Does it look like a hummingbird? Why pair it with a hummingbird? Is the snowbird gone?" Xingxing had a head full of questions and blurted them all out at once.
The three foreigners next to him were wolfing down sweet potatoes. They had brought these sweet potatoes to the Great Jin Dynasty. They had plenty of sweet potatoes in their country and didn't find them particularly delicious, but these sweet potatoes were like a delicacy.
The three of them ate while eavesdropping, even though they couldn't understand a word. But they were in a dangerous situation, so they instinctively wanted to find out more information.
Zhu Lin glanced at the few foreigners, then looked away, his voice deep and pleasant, "The Snowbird is a spirit bird I obtained in the cultivation world. This bird is extremely fast and has first-class stealth skills, making it an invaluable scout. The Snowbird has a keen sense of smell and can find the people and things it needs to find in the shortest amount of time."
When the cultivation world collapsed, the snowbird was taken into Zhu Lin's mustard seed space. If it had been imprisoned in the space indefinitely, it could have lived for a long time. However, the snowbird raised by Zhu Lin had seen the vast world and knew what freedom was like.
If it wasn't released, it would die of depression, because it had already started to starve itself due to depression. Zhu Lin was only three years old at the time. After communicating with the snowbird, he released it from the space.
Upon leaving the space, the snowbird brought back several wives from who-knows-where, all of them beautiful forked-tailed hummingbirds. As for why it chose hummingbirds as mates, it was naturally because the snowbird's size was similar to that of a hummingbird, and the snowbird was very picky; it wouldn't look at a bird that wasn't pretty.
