The elf sister asked, "When will Gongmingxian's nephew be ready to accept this age change? In other words, when will I need this feature, I can go to the system and find it out!" I think this is a very exciting gift, Gongming's nephew must be eager to get it, isn't it, Gongming?"

"Thank you, Aunt Xiaozu, that's true! Those who know me, Aunt Xiaozu too!"

Mai Ke was still there worried that his unauthorized decision had lowered Gongmei's age by two years for no reason, and he would be unhappy and even refuse.

I can't say it, at that time, I exercised the privilege of my ancestors, suppressed him, and forced him to accept.

However, I didn't expect that the elf sister would be completely solved with such a fork.

In fact, Mai Ke still didn't accurately grasp the psychology of his great-grandson.

Mak Gongming made it clear that he wanted to recover those lost years and his feelings about life at that time.

In order to make up for this, of course, the sooner the time to return, the better, but he is worried about the huge expenses, and he is not a person who does things without measure, so the eighteen-year-old can accept it.

Noticing that his ancestor and the uncle who had never met lowered his age by two years, it was too late to be happy, where would he object.

In this way, the Creator made everything work together, and this matter of changing the age of Mak Gongming went very smoothly, and everyone was satisfied and happy.

As for taking the time to find the corresponding function, the elf sister just casually said it as a reason.

In fact, this basic function is not a ready-made commodity, but a capability, a temporary production capacity.

After everyone agrees, the elf sister can give the system an indication.

The system then operates on the spot and applies that function to the beneficiary.

The connection between Qiao Zhi and Mai Ke is a six-dimensional space-time technology, which is naturally connected to the system managed by the elf sister, and the distance between the two is not an obstacle at all, but actually a seamless link.

After confirming that Mai Gongming was ready and could accept the change of age, the elf sister "clicked", and I didn't know what button to press, and the system immediately operated.

Here Mai Gongming still stayed there as before, he didn't have to do anything, but his whole body trembled slightly, like a breeze blowing on his face, and he felt a comfortable warm flow to his whole body, which spread to his limbs.

The eyes of the two audience widened, and they saw that Mai Gongming was like the most advanced Sichuan Opera face changing master, changing his face at a rate of ten times per second.

Two seconds later, a fresh face appeared in front of the two.

That's the ideal face shape of a sixteen-year-old, as well as the ideal bone shape, and the ideal face.

At a rough glance, it looks like a freshly peeled egg, plus a Xia Fei cheeks.

Although the two of them were well-informed, they were also shocked by the magic of this ingenious workmanship! For a while, they could not even speak.

Only when the elf sister probably foresaw it before, saw the finished product at this time, and was satisfied, it remained normal.

He said, "Okay! That's it! I hope my nephew likes your new face! I wish you a happy life." ”

Through his own personal feelings and the expressions of the two people next to him, Mai Gongming knew that he had got the expected result.

With a surging heart, he said: "Thank you, Aunt Xiaozu! I can't repay you, when you get married, I will be a flower girl for you." ”

The elf sister smiled: "Okay! I accept it! Your gift is the most pleasing to Aunt Xiaozu." ”

After the initial shock, Mai Ke looked at the great-great-grandson who had become a teenager, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt natural and harmonious, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha! Great! Come here, grandpa will teach you how to fight pirates!"

Mai Gongming is full of vitality, and his actions are ten times faster than before, and he teleports over with a whoosh.

"Ke Zu! grandson came to listen to the order, what is there to leave to the little grandson to do!"

Baili Liangliu looked at the smooth rhythm of this piece, and also laughed: "It's really pleasing to the eye and much more pleasing to the heart!"

Mai Ke and Mai Gongming got together, overlooking the battlefield of the Devil's Triangle in Bermuda, where the battle was still fierce, mainly those sea snakes, who didn't know where to hide, ran out at this time, and went forward to intercept those fleets one after another.

"How's it going, Moon Child?"

Mai Ke called the former enemy commander again.

Moon Child's response immediately returned: "It's okay! However, there are a lot of those sea snakes, and it is estimated that the battle will not end in a short time, let me fight for a while and see if I can find a good way to deal with them." ”

Mai Ke said: "Okay, I'll give you another half an hour, and report any changes in time." ”

Then he said to Mai Gongming: "Now, go and see another battlefield, the Strait of Malacca!"

On the other hand, Mai Ke has already set the target value.

It was only then that he asked, "There is no problem, Brother Baili Lianglu?"

You're all set to go, and I'm okay if I have a problem!

Do you want to break with you in front of your juniors?

Do I have nothing to do like this?

Besides, there is Moon Childe here, what can be the problem?

Besides, I haven't been in the underwater pyramid before.

And the Strait of Malacca, where I haven't been before, just to see the customs there.

"No problem! I'll go with you. ”

Mai Ke was stunned, I didn't say go!

I just wanted to turn the camera over and take a look at it remotely.

Since you've indicated that people are going to go in person, I'll make a trip.

Mai Ke reset the destination data, and with a whoosh, he flew out.

The Strait of Malacca is no stranger to Maike.

He'd been there at least twice.

One is that when he was studying at West Point, he came to participate in the military exercise of the Israeli Pacific island chain, and fought a landing operation at the northernmost point.

Another time, it was a real fight.

That was when he was in Heaven, when his navy opened up the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, and there he fought several big battles with pirates.

Unfortunately, he was ordered to return without completely clearing the pirate forces there.

Thinking of this, his heart moved.

Could it be that the pirates of today are the descendants of the pirates of that era?

Suddenly, Mai Ke remembered what his then Admiral Wen Fu had told him.

Mai Ke's current life indicators have been further strengthened, and his memory has naturally improved accordingly, and what happened when he traveled in the past can be vividly remembered as long as he looks back a little.

As it happened this morning, there was no overnight stay.

Wen Fu is a descendant of Wen Tianxiang, after surviving, the whole family participated in piracy, established a pirate fleet, and had its own base, the initial goal was to restore the Song Dynasty, and later it became the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, in short, it was resolutely anti-Qing.

After being subdued by Mai Ke, he has been opening up sea frontiers for the Kingdom of Heaven, and when it was convenient, he gave Mai Ke some introductions to the situation of pirates in Southeast Asia.

At that time, from the perspective of the piracy industry, the pirates of China were one of the three major pirates in the world, and even the largest, surpassing the old powerhouse Vikings and the geographically advantageous Mediterranean pirates, and were the world's most famous pirates of the South Seas.

In fact, it's a pirate like a peace.

If nothing else, with their maritime battlefield, the Pacific pirates also greatly exceed the other pirates combined.

Among the pirates of the South Seas, the most famous of them is the "Six Flags Alliance", in which the Red Flag Pirates have thousands of ships, tens of thousands of pirate members, and countless land bases.

It was when Mai Ke was developing the kingdom of heaven that these pirates existed at the same time.

They were not affected, on the contrary, many clever pirates, taking advantage of the opportunity to develop their own power and expand their territory.

Especially the navy of the heavenly kingdom, with strong ships and sharp guns, was the world hegemon at that time and deserved to be the overlord of the sea, and no one could stop him wherever he went.

The pirates of the "Six Flags Alliance" took advantage of this general trend and also took the opportunity to expand.

For example, the Strait of Malacca, before that, even the Six Flags Alliance could not reach it and could not get there.

Those pirates did not suffer losses but developed, and Mai Ke knew that a key reason was his policy towards them.

At that time, his targets were, first, those remnants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and second, those foreign forces with ill intentions.

The third is piracy and other armed forces.

If they take a neutral stance, they will become a force that Mai Ke vigorously strives for.

In fact, they were already part of the anti-Qing forces and had been encircled and suppressed by the Manchu army for a long time.

A good example of this is Wen Fu himself.

Thinking of this, Mai Ke's heart accelerated excitedly-maybe he could meet the old man?

Or is it a descendant of the deceased?

These contents appeared in his memories, and by the way, he chose to tell Mai Gongming and Baili Liangliu again, these two people didn't know anything about those things.

The speed of the aircraft was so fast that Mai Ke could only briefly talk about it, and soon reached the Strait of Malacca, which is located between the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra.

Viewed from above, the Strait of Malacca runs southeast-northwest.

Its northwest end is connected to the Andaman Sea in the Indian Ocean, and its southeast end is connected to the South China Sea of China.

The instruments on the aircraft immediately gave the exact length, the Strait of Malacca is about 1080 kilometers long plus 250 meters.

The north-west is the widest, with a width of 370 km, and the south-east is only 2.8 km at its narrowest point.

From here, you can see that the Strait of Malacca is geographically important as it is an international waterway connecting the Pacific Ocean with the Indian Ocean.

In terms of the boundaries of waterway traffic, the Straits of Malacca stretches between Phuket in Thailand and Sumatra in Indonesia in the west, between Malasyang Tanjung Piai and the Riau Islands in Indonesia in the east, and connects to the Strait of Singapore via the waterway between St. John's Island in Singapore and Anle Island in Indonesia.

In such a position, if a powerful pirate is stuck in the center, it is conceivable that it is equivalent to stucking the neck of the east-west sea transportation, and it can coerce several surrounding countries.

That kind of coercion not only makes it inconvenient for them to walk on the sea, but also can attack and threaten the safety of their coastal cities.

Mai Ke also knows that the Strait of Malacca is named after the ancient city of Malacca along the coast.

The strait is now under the joint management of the four countries of Xinjiapao, Tai Basket State, Mara Silk Crow, and Yindu Ni Silk Crow, which means that those pirates are also a common problem for these four countries, bringing them a serious threat.

Because this strait is far from the vast ocean, it is located in the equatorial windless zone, and there are many quiet days throughout the year, so it is an excellent sea area for navigation and fishing and aquaculture.

The seabed of the Strait of Malacca is flat, mostly composed of silty and sandy, and the current is gentle, and there is no wind and wave turbulence in all sections of the water.

With such good natural conditions, because of the pirate activities there, the four surrounding countries not only could not make profits, but also constantly suffered losses, so they very much wanted to solve the problem of piracy.

However, the wish is good, but the ability is not enough.

These four countries are almost the same, and they are very tough when they encounter weak opponents.

But once the opponent is strong, they immediately coax down.

But it is also a last resort for all small countries.

They also want to be hard, and they will always be hard, to the end.

However, the reality is very cruel, as long as it is hard once or twice, their country will be forced.

Therefore, they can only survive in the cracks with limited wisdom in this situation, such as clinging to the strong.

Therefore, although these four countries usually have too many contradictions to count, it is difficult to get into one pot, but this time they asked several governors to fight pirates, but they are unprecedentedly unanimous.

There were four governors who took part in the military campaign to eradicate piracy in the Strait of Malacca.

The Governor of Idle, Nan Xian, served as the commander-in-chief of the operation.

In order to reflect his Australian style, Nan Xian specially brought a kangaroo team.

There was also a band dedicated to the Maori Aborigines, placed on his command ship, which played in battle.

The Governor of South Asia, who was responsible for blocking the southern exit of the Strait of Malacca.

The Governor of South America, Wu Rendi, was responsible for blocking the northern exit of the Strait of Malacca.

The Governor of Asia, Ho Xian Gu, was in charge of searching for the landed pirates along the 1,080-kilometer coast, and of course raiding their land nests.

To do these things, it takes a large number of land combat forces, and He Xiangu gave full play to her dual advantages of wealth and land, mobilized all those gray forces in the Special Administrative Region, and moved with her fleet.

At the same time, He Xiangu also made a ruthless move, that is, to find the backbone of the beggar gang, and give full play to their expertise in catching snakes and dogs to deal with those pirates.

Doing these things, He Xiangu was very arrogant, and with a wave of her hand, whether it was a gray force or a member of the beggar gang, the hourly salary was one hundred dollars.

Wild flowers beckoned butterflies, and high salaries urged people to come.

Suddenly, the number of beggars increased dramatically, and many quit their old jobs and went straight to beggars for a hundred dollars at that salary.

This incident let the old man Hua Hongxian Seventeen Gong know, and he fell downstairs from the third to the third.

Then I ate three more chickens called flowers.

These background information, no need to talk nonsense from Mai Ke, the three of them can see it clearly at a glance, and it is all in those text introduction materials.

At this time, Nan Xian had already spoken to Mai Ke and reported to him the battle situation and progress here.

In a nutshell, they had already fought two battles with the pirates, both of which we had won, at opposite ends of the strait, with the result that the Yuren fleet had taken control of the southern access waterways.

The import and export of the north was captured by the fleet of the South American governor of Wu.

The sea there is wide, and the Wu people still have full control.

The pirates were heavily defended on a coast in the central province of North Sumatra, opposite Kuala Lumpur.

The pirates had more than a hundred large ships in the harbor there, and their firepower was fierce, and their fighting spirit was particularly tenacious, preferring to die rather than retreat.

Now the fighting there is very fierce and stalemate.

Although this situation is unexpected, it is normal, just keep fighting.

But the real problem is that those troops from Shikoku who participated in the war were very brutal!

Not only did they torture and kill all the wounded and captured pirates, but they also killed all of their families, including women, children, and the elderly.

There is an even bigger problem, those are the descendants of the Chinese people!

As soon as Mai Ke heard Nan Xian's report, he immediately thought of the memories just now, could it be that those people were all descendants of pirates at that time?

If it's true, then be sure to give them a chance to see if they have any intention of returning!

So, Mai Ke immediately sent an order to Nan Xian: "Stop the exchange of fire immediately! Try to contact them! If it doesn't work, wait until we arrive and see the situation." ”

Nan Xian was hesitating there, and he was not fighting, and he was afraid of delaying the fighter plane if he didn't fight, so he listened to Mai Ke's instructions and immediately ordered a ceasefire.

Because he gave the order loudly, both sides could hear it on the battlefield, and his side did not fight according to the order, and the other side seemed to follow the order, and immediately stopped firing guns.

As soon as he saw this reaction, Nan Xian knew that the other party had released kindness.

At that moment, he walked to the bow of the warship and shouted to the other party's defenders: "I am the commander of the extermination of pirates, Nan Xian! Please note that the principal of your party note will come out and speak, and there are some things I want to say to him! That is, to discuss with him." ”

In order to test his cognition, the other party is a descendant of China's Shangguo, and Nan Xian deliberately uses Chinese.

After a short time, a head appeared on the wall of the other side, wearing a steel helmet, but only showing a head, and said: "You have come to attack us for no reason and killed many of us, which is very rude! Originally, we were all determined to fight you to the death, but since you said that there was something to discuss, in order to reduce the death and forgetfulness of the clansmen, I will come out to talk to you! Say, what is the matter? By the way, our name is Zhang Xing, and we are the commander of this city, responsible for defending this city, and this city is called 'Zhangjiabao', well, that's all. ”

Nan Xian thought in his heart, and it was really close to what I imagined!

"Your Excellency Captain Zhang Xing, this is the case, we were ordered to wipe out pirates, and we would have killed all of you, but I see that you are all descendants of the Chinese kingdom, so I want to talk to you about whether we can find a peaceful solution that can ensure the safety of your lives;

"Commander Nanxian! In this case, I will not be able to do it, and I need my grandfather to talk about it; why? Because first, I can't do big things; second, my Chinese is not good for me and I can't understand it, so I'm afraid of delaying things." ”

Nan Xianxin said, it seems that he is really a descendant of the Chinese kingdom, and with this degree of modesty and prudence, it is the result of a good education; this Chinese level is stronger than mine, and he still feels that it is difficult to understand and too modest.

He asked, "What does Your Excellency Commander think should be done?"

Zhang Xing said: "Since this matter must be decided by my grandfather, then I can ask his old man to see if he is willing to come to see you, his old man has not come out to walk around for a long time, it is estimated that it is difficult; the easier way is that you send a representative to come with me, but your people come to trouble us, it is our enemy, go deep into the enemy's base camp, I don't know if you have the courage." ”

Mai Ke and the others looked at the young man who couldn't see the appearance of the other party clearly, and the language seemed to be a little wooden, probably a young man, and felt a little funny, obviously using the method of agitation, wanting them to venture into his sphere of influence, so that he would take the initiative.

However, who is Mai Ke?

In terms of guts, not to mention the dog's guts, at least he is also a hero and a tiger, and he has not gone to any less places than this Longtan Tiger's Den, how can such a small city scare him?

However, it is one thing to have the guts or not, and it is another thing to fail to reach the enemy.

Unless it's a matter of counting, that's another matter.

Mai Ke replied: "Your grandfather is understandably incapacitated, he is the older generation, and we should also come to visit, but you don't have this problem, if I ask you to come over, you don't have the guts?"

Baili Lianglu added gloomily: "I don't even dare to show my face from a long distance, where do you have any guts?" ”

Who knows, before Baili Liangliu's words fell, the half-stealthy and half-masked kid on the opposite side jumped on the battlements with a "poof".

He tore off his helmet and said loudly: "Why don't you dare to show your face? ”

At this moment, there was a bang, a spark flickered in the fleet of Yindu mud crows, and a sniper bullet went straight to Zhang Xing's head.

The gunman was obviously experienced and had excellent marksmanship, and the timing of the shot was seamless, and Zhang Xing was definitely not immune.

The path he jumped out of was exactly the same as the bullet that was one position above, which was the result of the gunman's prediction!

When it was very dangerous, I only heard two bangs, and then a scream, a pop.

Because the battlefield is relatively quiet now, even the smallest sound can be heard by everyone, so everyone knows what is happening.

The man who was clearly a gunslinger in the Yindu mud crow fleet was shot in the head with one shot!

The sniper bullet that shot Zhang Xing was intercepted about 15 meters in front of Zhang Xing, and both exploded at the same time and became powder.

Then I heard Mai Ke say coolly: "In front of my super sharpshooter, you don't come here! If you don't give up, even if you come again, I promise to satisfy you, and each of you will be treated to a peanut." ”

Zhang Xing, who was standing on the wall, trembled in his heart, on the surface he was calm, and bent down in the direction of this Mai Ke: "Thank you!"

Just now, although the incident happened suddenly, he still saw it clearly.

Said: "Those countries that have done evil will never let go of any opportunity to kill me, although I trust you, but I can't trust those villains who go back on their word, I have been deceived by them no less than ten times, and I have formed a fixed opinion, how do you decide below, please inform me as soon as possible." ”

After saying that, another harrier turned over, hiding behind the battlements.

Mai Ke and Baili Liangliu have a very good impression of this Zhang Xing!

Bold but not reckless, he is a qualified general, and it seems that the quality of this group of pirates is not low.

Mai Gongming, who had been listening to the two of them and carefully observing the surrounding situation, said at this time: "That Zhang Xingke is really young, only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is at the age when he has no hair in his mouth and is not firm in his work, but he is responsible for guarding the city, and he must be an extraordinary person. ”

Mai Gongming regained his youth not long ago, and his eyesight is particularly good, and he can easily see Zhang Xing who jumped on the battlements.

He could see that the stubble he had first grown had never been shaved, so he determined his age.

Mai Ke said: "I have a good impression of them, why don't we go over?"

Baili Lianglu said: "I agree! Are we not as bold as pirates? Although I don't have Mai Ke's experience in going deep into the tiger's den, my courage is not small. ”

Mai Ke said: "At that time, we traveled to the last days of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and as a rebel, we dared to meet the emperor. ”

Mai Gongming stopped: "Are you sarcastic about my Mai Gongming's timidity? Otherwise, you two are waiting here, and I will go alone to see if the young sons of the Mai family are good enough?"

For this proposal, Mai Ke is obviously very tempted!

However, Baili Liangliu couldn't let one of his city lord-level generals have any accidents.

"No! The other party is not only Zhang Xing, a junior! Which of those pirates who are still alive and well after going through the storm can be kind? Not to mention anything else, they must all be ruthless! It is obviously inappropriate for Gongming to go by himself! After waiting for a period of time and honing for seven or eight years, he may be able to take charge on his own. ”

Mai Ke also dispelled his thoughts and said, "Then how does the eldest brother think he should act?"

Baili Liangliu pondered for a moment: "Why don't we three of us go together!" In case of trouble, we can also discuss and come up with a solution on the spot; and the ability of the three of us, even if all the demons and monsters in the world come, we can't help me." ”

Mai Ke was also arrogant: "Ho ho! Whoever is impatient with life, they are welcome to come and seek death." ”

Mai Gong is young and strong, and shouted on the spot: "You old guys are not afraid, why should I be afraid of my newborn calf?"

Mai Ke gave him a neck crutch and said angrily: "Who is old? Don't accept single practice? Brother Baili teaches you how to respect the old and love the young every second." ”

As they spoke, their flying machine jumped and stopped where Zhang Xing was standing just now.

Zhang Xing and his soldiers defending the city were taken by surprise, thinking that they had just dealt with it inappropriately and that the other party was going to fight.

"Zhang Xing, go, lead the way, go find your grandfather!"

Mai Ke spoke, stabilizing the other party's defenders.

Zhang Xing was overjoyed, called an adjutant and ordered him to continue to defend the city, and he jumped on Mai Ke's flying machine in one step.

It is also a daring character.

After going up, it is inevitable to introduce each other, but Mai Ke and Baili Liangliu are both adults, and Zhang Xing is still a half-sized child, so it is impossible to be equal, so the introduction is just hastily.

Only two young people, Mai Gongming and Zhang Xing, fell in love with each other, and they seemed to hit it off at first sight.

One is that Chinese is not too advanced, at least I think, and the other is also unrelenting, so when we meet, we are all like the same.

Mai Ke was there to grasp the overall situation, and suddenly he saw a flash of fire on one of the gunboats of the Yindu mud crow's fleet, and a heavy ship-to-air missile hit it.

It turned out that the sniper's fleet was still waiting for an opportunity to avenge the dead accomplices.

This is not the country or the fleet commander of the person concerned, but the self-determination of the officers and soldiers of the fleet.

However, it also shows that their military discipline is lax and can cause great damage.

Mai Ke snorted coldly, he didn't know what button to press, and the missile that flew like smoke and lightning turned back one by one, and hit back the battleship that launched it at a faster speed!

With a bang, the large battleship was blown in two!

Thrown high into the air!

Before they could land, two louder explosions rang out, and the two warships were reduced to dust in an instant.

It turned out that it was the original missile that caused the explosion of the ammunition depot, which was even more powerful, not only shattering the broken ship, but also affecting the warships on both sides, and two warships of the same class were sunk.

At the same time, Mai Ke issued a serious warning to Yindu's fleet of mud crows: "Take care of your stragglers! If you commit another offense, I will destroy your entire fleet! Nan Xian listens to the order! Send people to closely monitor them, they violate my military strength, I authorize you to enforce military discipline, first cut and then play." ”

Nan Xian was also angry in his heart, and responded majestically: "Get the order! Those who violate the order will not be spared!"

At this time, the commander of Yindu's mud crow's fleet replied: "I'm sorry, it's because my discipline is not strict! All of them, from now on, if you dare to do anything wrong, I won't need to do anything wrong with Commander Nanxian, I will kill him personally!"

Mai Ke dealt with Yindu's mud crow fleet harshly, but he just wanted to deter and prevent those guys from the four countries who had bad military discipline from making trouble, but he didn't expect to beat the horses and mules and scare Zhang Xing enough.

Although he didn't want to make a name for himself against these guests, he was not sure about others!

If his accomplices had behaved, there would be no such world-famous pirate.

Against ordinary opponents, those who do some bad things are okay, but for the three of Mai Ke, if they make a name, it is possible to break the sky!

This must not happen!

Thinking of this, he was sweating all over his body.

Said to Mai Ke, "Can I call my grandfather?"

It turns out that these pirates are not lagging behind in terms of these modern technologies, at least they are more advanced than the surrounding four countries, and mobile phones are very common.

"No problem! Do you have a mobile phone? If you don't, you can use mine. ”

Zhang Xing said: "I have." ”

I took out a small gadget and hit it straight out.

However, it didn't connect!

Mai Ke remembered that this aircraft frequently shuts down all the signals in the world, and ordinary mobile phones cannot play its role.

Mai Ke helped him connect, and Zhang Xing said to the other party: "Grandpa! I am bringing my important friends to see you! Yes, they are here to destroy our powerful force!" However, their principal is from the kingdom of China, and after hearing about your roots, he offered to talk to you, and we are already on our way; I have made this call to you to tell you one thing seriously, that is, these friends I have brought with me are very powerful, the largest warship of the Yindu mud crow fleet, and they have been blown to pieces without blinking their eyes, and at the same time they have killed the other two, the kind of warships that we can't handle! Grandpa, you know, we have a few thorns there, and no one will accept them, and if they make a mistake and annoy the distinguished guests, they will affect us! It is not a pity for them to die, and if grandpa's major event is delayed, they will be guilty of ten thousand deaths! Therefore, I am angry with grandpa, and you should always make arrangements in advance. ”

A voice over there that was not too angry said, "Okay, grandpa knows, I will be ready, you have to concentrate on your work, don't neglect the guests." ”

After calling his grandfather, Zhang Xing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said to Mai Gongming: "Gongming, I am the same age as you, and I have more common language, and I am more anxious, so I am older among my peers, in fact, my age is estimated to be about the same as yours, or I will call you the eldest brother, right? Brother, how do you think? Fulfilled a wish of the younger brother? Little brother, I am grateful." ”

Mai Gongming said in his heart, my estimate is that your estimate is more accurate, and I must be older than you!

Asked: "Zhang Xing, let's not talk about who is the eldest brother and who is the younger brother, now the outside does not care much about these things, I wonder, those thoughts and words of yours, except for a few ones, are very consistent with the trend outside, but at the beginning you said that your Chinese is not good, your expression and hearing are poor, what is going on? Have you been educated outside and gone to school?"

Zhang Xing said proudly: "This is the secret of our Zhangjiazhuang! Since you are my eldest brother, you are not an outsider, and by the way, you two elders are not outsiders, where is the reason that the juniors are not outsiders but the elders are outsiders? Since they are not outsiders, we will tell you that this secret is the inside of our Zhangzhuang, and all education and management are advancing with the times! This is advancing with the times, not with those countries around it, what Xinjiapao, what Thai basket country, what Malasya, What else are the Yindu mud silk crows, they are not very eye-catching to my grandfather! Our standard of keeping pace with the times is the current standard of China!"

Originally, Mai Ke and Baili Lianglu were doing other things there, and the two little guys bragged and fart without paying attention, but at this time, they were shocked when they heard that they were advancing with the times!

Is there such a thing?

I can't help but be in awe of Zhang Xing's grandfather, who has never met before.

Wouldn't that be more important to Chinese civilization than those of us who have always been in the Chinese circle?

At the same time, I am also more curious about this so-called Zhang Zhuang.

Being able to maintain your own cultural traditions is easier said than done!

If nothing else, it's easy to survive.

Because everyone around you will see you as an outlier.

The young man's mind was lively, and Mai Gongming immediately asked: "Although your territory is called Zhangzhuang, it seems to be just a small village, but if you want to maintain a cultural tradition, it must be different from the surrounding environment, and the scale must be not small. ”

Zhang Xing said: "I don't care about this, I don't know too specifically, but if you fly a circle, you will have a good number, let's put it this way, this Strait of Malacca, 1080 kilometers long, divided into east and west, the east is basically my Zhangzhuang's territory, the west is about one-third, the width is not necessarily, but at least the coastal cities and ports are controlled by us......

Mai Gongming exclaimed: "In this way, isn't your Zhangzhuang bigger than those Xinjiapao, Tai Basket Country, Mara Silk Crow, and Yindu Ni Silk Crow?"

Zhang Xing smiled and was noncommittal.

But he said in his heart, of course!

The place controlled by my Zhang family is not only larger than one of their countries, but even larger than the sum of their four countries, otherwise they are all like wolves, how can they obediently coexist peacefully with us?

If we hadn't overwhelmed them, they wouldn't have colluded with outsiders to try to wipe us out.

This kind of trick of killing people with a knife, they are all engaged in endlessly, and they have never stopped.

If it weren't for using them as a cover for us, we would have destroyed them a long time ago.

This is what my grandfather told me personally, and it is the top secret of the family.

Your relationship with us is not enough to share such a top-secret matter.

"So how is your education done?"

After all, Baili Lianglu is more angry in the book business, and he is interested in this kind of thing, so he can't help but interject and ask.

By the way, my sister's name is Xiangnu, she is the most beautiful woman in the family, and she is very capable, by the way, I am telling you, big brother, if you are very powerful, I support you to conquer her, and when I am my brother-in-law, we will kiss and kiss; if you can't do it, you must be provoked by her, she will make you live and die, and I will not be able to help you at that time." ”

"Your sister's name is Zhang Xiangnu? ”

Until now, Mai Gongming, a Lu man who has never experienced the fluctuation of Hongluan, said.

"No, her full name is 'Xiang Girl'. ”

Mai Ke sighed: "She's not surnamed Zhang?"

"Not surnamed Zhang, surnamed Xiang. ”

"She's not your grandfather's granddaughter?"

"Of course she and I are twins, my parents' daughter, my own sister, how can she not be my grandfather's granddaughter?"

"But you said that her surname is Xiang, and her name is Xiangnu, where did that surname Xiang come from?"

Zhang Xing sighed and said: "That's my grandma's surname, her name is Xianggu, the younger generation of my family, all girls, follow my grandma's surname, it is said that it is the agreement between my grandfather and my grandmother, and no one can violate it." ”

Mai Gongming didn't understand, and asked, "So what is it for?"

Zhang Xing said: "I don't know, you ask my grandparents when I go back to see them, but I know a reason, it is said to be for the convenience of intermarriage." ”

Baili Liangliu was shocked!

"Is it permissible for your brother and sister to intermarry?"

Zhang Xing said: "Why not? We know that in the Chinese wedding ceremony, the same surname is not a child marriage, my surname is Zhang, and my sister's surname is Xiang, not the same surname, so naturally there is nothing to do." ”

Mai Ke sighed in his heart.

After all, they are isolated pirates, and there are essential differences in the understanding and observance of traditional culture.
