And very soon he had an old-fashioned window-box garden on the houseboat post office blooming with geraniums and marigolds and zinnias raised from the seeds and cuttings his birds brought him from England. And that is why many of the same vegetables that grow in England can still be found in a wild state in Africa. They came there through Gub-Gub's passion for the foods he had been brought up on.
"They did,下载❎" said the Piffilosaurus. "But they kept hidden under the water,吉童的🌓 lest the natives on the shore should see and get to know that the old story about the dragon's mother-in-law wasn't true. While I was bringing you here they were swimming all around you under the water,吉童的🔑 ready to help if I needed them. They have gone around to the secret cove so they may come ashore unseen. We had better be going on ourselves now. Whatever happens,吉童的🚲 we mustn't be seen from the shore and have the natives coming here. It would be the end of us if that should ever happen,下载🚎 because,吉童的😧 between ourselves,后裔😵 although they think us so terrible,后裔🐅 we are really more harmless than sheep."
"From the bottom of the lake,后裔🍋" said the turtle. "Out there,吉童的📦" Mudface nodded toward the gloomy wide-stretching waters,后裔💳 "there stood,下载🔔 thousands of years ago,下载😃 the beautiful city of Shalba. Don't I know,下载🌜 when for long enough I lived in it? Once it was the greatest and fairest city ever raised by men and King Mashtu of Shalba the proudest monarch in the world. Now I,下载⚪ Mudface the turtle,吉童的🚉 make a nest in the swamp out of the ruins of his palace. Ha! Ha!"Toward evening the Doctor arrived at a small settlement of straw huts,下载🛀 the village of Chief Nyam-Nyam. Calling on the Chief with an introduction from King Koko,后裔✈ the Doctor was well received. He found,吉童的🌜 however,后裔😈 that the country over which this chief ruled was indeed in a very poor state. For years powerful neighbors on either side had made war on the old Chief and robbed him of his best farming lands,下载📙 till now his people were crowded onto a narrow strip of rocky shore where very little food could be grown. The Doctor was particularly distressed by the thinness of the few chickens pecking about in the streets. They reminded him of old broken-down cab-horses,下载🎒 he said.
"Dear me!" muttered the Doctor,吉童的🚗 paddling harder than ever,吉童的🛄 "I wonder what can have happened?"
"Oh,下载👮 excuse me,下载💰" said the Captain,后裔👥 his manner changing at once. "Master-at-arms,吉童的📑 release the prisoner."
"I don't know what I'll say to him. I'll see when I get there,吉童的😬" said John Dolittle. "But we must be very careful how we approach,吉童的〽 so that he doesn't see us coming. If he should pull up his anchor and sail away we would never be able to overtake him by canoe."A little while after that,后裔🐁 by using the larger birds to carry packages,吉童的🐽 a regular parcel post every two months was put at the service of the Fantippans; and alarm clocks and all sorts of things from England were sent for.
"All right,吉童的🎁" said the Doctor. "Fly slowly on to where the canoe is and I will steer the ship to follow you."
CHAPTER VII
"He was,后裔🅱 indeed,后裔🙀" said the duck. "I'm not surprised his wife is sick,吉童的📨 if she has a husband with a face like that."The snake,后裔💟 hearing Cheapside's chatter,吉童的🏭 thought something must be wrong. He turned his head-end around and came back to see what the matter was. Then a short halt was made in the journey while the Doctor and Jip cleaned themselves up,下载📞 and the precious notebooks,下载👮 which had also been jerked out into the mud,后裔❗ were rescued and stowed in a safe place.
"'There she is!' said the little girl. 'She's calling to us. Come along,后裔🚊 Willie.'
