Chapter 56 This Is Not Seasickness
Xiao Peng looked at the two people squeezed in the bathroom with a helpless smile. Of course, the ones hiding inside were Felix and Boco.
The bathroom and toilet of the "Hongtouwan" are separate. The bathroom is relatively large, about four square meters, while the toilet is relatively small. Since the instrument panel of the external driving console is right above it, the toilet is much lower. You can still stand by bending over when entering the door. You must be careful when getting up from the toilet after using it, otherwise you may easily hit your head.
But these two people didn't stay in the spacious bathroom and went to the toilet instead. Your train of thought is quite amazing!
Before Xiao Peng could say anything to scold them, Felix pushed Xiao Peng away and rushed onto the deck. Xiao Peng thought he was going to jump into the sea, but Felix lay at the stern and started vomiting.
Boko hurriedly explained, "I told you to hide in the bathroom, and Felix asked what if you went to wash your hands, so we hid in the bathroom."
The toilet is small, so the sink is in the bathroom. This reason is valid!
Xiao Peng pointed at Bo Ke and said, "I asked you to watch him. How could you let him come with you? Will you be responsible if something happens?"
Bo Ke said helplessly, "Xiao, you have to understand me. I work to earn money too! I don't want to lose this job! Don't you know how stubborn Felix is? Who can stop him from making up his mind?"
He was right. A thirteen-year-old who dared to drive away by himself was indeed quite capable. However, Xiao Peng pointed at his nose and said, "Bo Ke, do I look like a parent who spoils a child? Damn, I'm still a child and I want to be spoiled!"
Boko smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao, I know you are very angry, but..."
Xiao Peng waved his hand and said, "No buts! I'll return and take you back right away! Isn't this just adding to the chaos?"
Boko nodded and said, "I can't wait to get back! I don't want to suffer at sea! I'm already sweating profusely in just a few moments!"
"How can you not sweat?" Xiao Peng said angrily, "How can you squeeze two people into such a small space?"
Xiao Peng turned around and walked onto the deck. Felix was still vomiting there. "You still want to go out to sea in this state? Suffering at sea with seasickness like this? We're heading back now!"
After hearing what Xiao Peng said, Felix hurriedly said, "Master! I'm not seasick!"
Xiao Peng was about to turn the rudder around when he heard Felix's words and laughed angrily: "You've vomited like this and you still say you don't get seasick?"
Felix looked up, his eyes brimming with tears. He said with a look of grievance, "I'm not seasick, it's Boco who stinks! He didn't use deodorant today!"
Xiao Peng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Whether black or white, the vast majority of people have body odor issues. Their body odor is caused by their apocrine glands, so if they don't sweat, there's no body odor, but once they do, it's truly devastating! Boco had just worked up a sweat in the bathroom, and Felix's experience in such a small space was worthy of sympathy.
In fact, the French invented perfume to cover up their own bad smell.
In the Middle Ages, the biggest characteristic of the French was that they did not take baths.
They don't take a bath not because they don't like cleanliness, but for two reasons.
The first reason was religious. According to the teachings of the time, bathing symbolized rebirth, which later evolved into disrespect for God. Emperors at the time relied on religion to consolidate their power, so they respected these regulations. Even the emperor did not bathe, and the result was that ordinary people did not bathe either.
Another reason is that medicine was not so advanced at the time. At that time, the Black Death was raging in Europe. Doctors at the time believed that the virus entered the body through the skin, and bathing would reduce people's resistance.
The result of these two points combined was that the French at that time really did not like to take a bath.
In French history, there was King Louis XIV, nicknamed the "Sun King." He was a brilliant ruler! Through his remarkable talent, wisdom, and military prowess, he made France the most powerful nation in Western Europe at the time. His reign lasted a staggering 72 years and 110 days, making him the longest-reigning sovereign monarch in recorded history.
Regarding this point, the Universal Kingdom is very dissatisfied! They say that their founding emperor, Tangun, has been king for nearly two thousand years.
However, what King Louis XIV is most famous for is not his achievement in turning France into the most powerful country in Western Europe, but the fact that he only took a bath twice in his life.
That's really a guy who stinks for ten miles!
In fact, his cause of death was also related to not taking a bath - he died of a fungal infection on his feet.
Foreigners at that time were not unaware of their smelly problem, so two "great" inventions were born. One was wigs, which were used to cover up smelly hair caused by not taking a bath; the other was perfume, which was used to cover up body odor.
This tradition continues to this day, and deodorant and perfume are essential items in people's lives here! In France, you can tell whether a person is a true Frenchman by smelling their perfume.
Boko was also aggrieved: "I was called to hide on the boat before I even got up today. I didn't even take a shower! How could I not stink?"
Xiao Peng said, "I'll take you back now. It has nothing to do with me whether you wash your bald skin or not."
Felix stopped vomiting after hearing this and shook his head like a rattle: "I'm not going back! I'm staying on the boat!"
After saying that, he held on to the side of the boat tightly, as if saying "I'm not going to get off the boat".
Xiao Peng sneered after seeing this, "I'm not the kind of parent who spoils naughty kids! If you want to act like a scoundrel, go find your mom or dad! Don't come to me!"
But after hearing what Xiao Peng said, Felix burst into tears: "I haven't seen my dad in six years!"
Xiao Peng was stunned after hearing this. He now understood why Pascal had insisted on keeping Felix. Could it be said that they shared the same fate?
He thought again, damn, maybe it was Pascal who allowed them to sneak onto the ship, otherwise how did these two guys get on the ship!
This is a scam!
Thinking of this, he smiled coldly: "Felix, do you really want to stay on the boat?"
"Yes! Master!" Felix saw that there was a chance, wiped his tears and looked at Xiao Peng with wide eyes and a pleading look.
"Don't call me Master once you're on board!" Xiao Peng said coldly, "As long as you're on board, you're a sailor, regardless of age, and everything on board must be under the captain's command!"
Hearing Xiao Peng say this, Felix perked up: "Yes! Captain!"
"Captain, I'm giving you your first order now!" Xiao Peng pointed to the bucket beside him and said, "Go get some water and start cleaning the deck! Scrubbing the deck is a compulsory course for all sailors aboard! You won't be allowed to eat until you finish!"
"I'm alone?" Felix pointed at Boko and said, "Where's he?"
"Boko! Go take a shower! I smell a stinky stink too!"
