Chapter 154 chapter Five

How did Pagoda meet a ship of passengers returning from the Lantern Kingdom? On the fifth day, when we turned away from the equator and turned towards the North Pole, we suddenly found a merchant ship approaching us from the left.This joy is very important, whether it is us or the merchants on that ship; we are happy to hear news from the sea, and they are happy to hear news from the mainland. We approached the boat and learned that they were from St. Easton, France.After the two sides talked, Paguguai knew that they had come back from the Lantern Kingdom.This added to the joy of all of us, and we asked them about the situation in the Lantern Country and the customs and habits of the people there.It is said that the Lantern Kingdom will hold a general meeting at the end of July①. If we arrive as scheduled (it seems not difficult to do), we can see many gorgeous, noble and cheerful people from the Lantern Kingdom. I heard that they are already making grand preparations, because they want to Show the customs of the Lantern Kingdom well.We also heard that we must go through Gabalin ②, where the King Ohabe ③ will definitely receive us warmly.The King and all his subjects spoke the French language of Turin.

While we were hearing these news, Panurge got into a quarrel with a businessman named Dan Deno from Taibao.The reason for the quarrel is this. Dan Denuo saw that Banuri was not wearing crotch, and his glasses were fastened to his hat, so he pointed to him and said to his companion: "Look over there, it looks like a turtle." Banuge could hear more clearly than usual because of the glasses on his ears.Hearing what the man said, he asked him: "Damn it, how could I be a turtle? I'm not married yet, and I don't look like your unlucky one. I know I have a wife at a glance."

The businessman replied: "Yes, I do. Even if you give me all the glasses in Europe, plus the magnifying glass in Africa, I won't be single. Because my wife is the most beautiful and beautiful woman in the whole world. Gentle, most faithful, most chaste woman, it doesn't matter to anyone else. I will bring her a very beautiful red coral eleven inches long this time. But it's none of your business, what are you doing ? What are you? Where did you come from? A heathen who sells glasses, you better answer whether you believe in God or not!" Banuge said: "I want to ask you that if all the elements are smooth and helpful, I have married your beautiful, gentle, faithful, and chaste wife, so that Puri, who has nothing to do here Yaps - the hard god of the garden, with no crotch to restrain it - got inside her, and worst of all, couldn't get out again, probably staying inside forever, unless you go and get out with your teeth La, what do you do then? Do you let it stay in it, or do you really bite it with your teeth? Please answer me, you Muhammad's sheep dealer, son of the devil."

The businessman said, "I'm going to give you a sword on your spectacled ear, and kill you like a sheep." While talking, he wanted to pull out his sword, but he couldn't pull out the sword in its sheath. You know that the sea is very humid and highly alkaline, and all irons are easy to rust.Banu Ri called for help from Panaguguai before it was too late.Brother John drew his freshly sharpened dagger, and if it had not been for the owner of the ship and The Sixth Toronto Conference on May 29; as for the "Lantern Country", it refers to the large hood worn by the priests when they hold meetings like lanterns.

② "Gaibalin" means "battle, war" in Hebrew. ③ "Ohabe" comes from the Hebrew word ohahi, which means "my friend". ④ Fort Taiyi: France near the Charente River near St. Savinian place name. The other passengers begged Paiguguet not to cause trouble on board his ship, and he would certainly cut off the merchant's head.The matter was finally over, and the two parties shook hands to make peace, and Panurge and the businessman toasted to express their true reconciliation, drinking and wishing each other health.
