Chapter 24: The Apologetics (Part II)

In the earth city, the barefoot men and women who were not covered walked very steadily with bamboo baskets, wooden barrels and the like on their heads, which made Lu Ning sigh, human beings, as expected, are very adaptable, and if they are used to it, their heads can be used as very skilled tools.

And the earthen house next to the street where Lu Ning is located is the medical hall opened by the Great Qi Order, and at the same time, the statue of the Emperor Lu is enshrined in the back, which is the small Taoist hall of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

As the closest Southeast Asian city to the border of Yunnan, Ava City will leave a permanent order to expand the influence of Daqi from another perspective, which is also something that Chinese civilization has never done.

Yes, Lu Ning came forward and rented this house with Avadobao for a long time.

And now outside the door, those barbarians will sneak a few glances inside when they pass by.

In just two days, there have been three incidents of beating slaves alive on the dirt roads in the city, and as a David Taoist priest in Langzhong, he was strictly ordered by Lu Ning not to interfere in local affairs, and his mood was a little depressed.

Lu Ning understands that these guardians, there may be not a few people who have other thoughts, but more of them should be compassionate people, this enlightenment was originally a Qihuang holy hand before becoming a monk, and he was willing to enter the Tao to preach overseas, and he is also a bodhisattva-hearted person, seeing injustice, but he can't do anything, so he is naturally not in a good mood.

Gao Ling'er, who came to the hospital with Lu Ning today, didn't see those dirty things, her walking was not very natural, and her face was even more shy, and she was a different person from the lively and active little girl before.

……

Outside the window of the wing, under the hot sun, the loess surface of Tucheng seems to be smoking.

The bamboo tables and bamboo chairs are all brand new, Lu Ning slowly tasted the fragrant tea, and Gao Ling'er sat on the side as a good girl, not daring to look at Lu Ning, and her little face was red all the time.

Lu Ning chuckled, picked up the teacup, poured her a cup of tea in person, and said dotingly: "It's hot, drink tea to cool off." ”

Gao Ling'er nodded her little head and didn't squeak.

Looking at her small appearance, the little embroidered shoes curled up under the pale red skirt, Lu Ning's mind flashed back to the night a few days ago, and the situation of this little girl turning clouds and rain, and her heart was hot again.

"Your Highness, you are so good to Ling'er." Across the bamboo table, sat Dong Baifeng, dressed in plain clothes, although she had not officially become a defender, but she was dressed up and dressed like a female missionary.

Lu Ning coughed, knowing that Dong Baifeng must have seen the change in the relationship between himself and Ling'er.

Gao Ling'er lowered her head and didn't speak, but her red little face was full of joy.

Outside, there was a sudden commotion.

Lu Ning listened attentively, frowning slightly, since he began to learn the Southwest language department in the Qixi Department, how much, people here can also hear some clues.

The noise came from the medical hall, and in addition to Duan Yuyan, there was a local from Dali in the accompanying order, who was able to communicate with the Burmese people.

In the medical hall, there were several uninvited guests, it sounded like a very powerful local slave owner, who had come to see Dong Baifeng, it seemed that he had come a few times, and now Dong Baifeng had avoided him.

Female missionaries sometimes encounter these problems overseas, so if it is not a region where Daqi really has influence, the Order will never have a beautiful female defender.

Lu Ning looked at Dong Baifeng, "How many times has this person come to harass you?" ”

Dong Baifeng was stunned and said, "He's here again?" Then he was annoyed: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't show my head too much." It looked like Lu Ning glanced at him, "Your Highness, I won't make such a mistake again in the future!" ”

Obviously, there was some worry that Lu Ning would blame her.

Lu Ning waved his hand: "It's just that these local snakes are too wanton." ”

As he spoke, the noise outside was even louder.

Suddenly, there were two loud bangs.

Immediately, in the midst of the screams, there should have been a large crowd of people surrounding the door to watch the excitement, but they immediately screamed and dispersed in a hurry.

Dong Baifeng stood up in shock, and Gao Ling'er also woke up from her thoughts.

Lu Ning waved his hand: "It's okay." ”

……

In the evening, Avadobao led a number of samurai to the outskirts, most of them shirtless, with strange blue and red patterns painted on their faces, and the spears in their hands were not known to be bronze spearheads, and they were confronted by a row of heavily armed musketeers, giving the illusion of chaos in time and space.

When Avaduobao came to Lu Ning's camp, Lu Ning was talking to the four princesses, and after the conflict in the medical hall, Lu Ning returned to the camp, and all the people in the medical hall were withdrawn, but some defenders still volunteered to stay and guard the hall.

Originally, the topic was no longer a sudden conflict with the barbarians, but a chatter from all over the world.

At this time, suddenly Danja came to tell him that Avadobao had arrived, and he had brought hundreds of samurai with him.

Dong Baifeng immediately became worried, and blamed himself even more.

When Lu Ning came out, he originally said that he wanted them to wait, but Dong Baifeng must follow, so Gao Ling'er also secretly followed, and Duan Yuyan and Lin Wanqing also followed.

In addition, the five maids of Danjia are now each armed with a musket, speaking of which, training a musketeer is a hundred times more effort than training an archer, and the five maids of Danjia are not much training, and they know how to use a musket after learning simply.

On the grassy slope, Lu Ning and the others walked out from behind the musketeers, and Avadobao immediately laughed and walked up very affectionately, talking to Lu Ning.

Duan Yuyan said on the side: "He said, I'm glad that you punished Rahu Fanai, he has long seen that guy is not pleasing to the eye, thank you for killing him......" paused, "There are still a lot of vulgar words, all of which are scolding the deceased." ”

Lahu Fanai, the big local slave owner who entangled Dong Baifeng, in the morning, led the warriors to break into the medical hall, and he must go to see Dong Baifeng, the musket servants because the king of Zhennan was there, he couldn't let him disturb the king's driver, and the current shot was pressed, and Lahu Fanai was also unlucky, and was hit by a stray bullet, the original target was not him, but now the musket is on target, sometimes it is really reluctant, yes, he was shot and died.

Now this Avadobao is happy, and it seems that the two of them are very unharmonious.

"A misunderstanding, killing and injuring people, I regret it, and I will also punish the fire-shooting soldiers." Lu Ning would not follow his words to celebrate the killing of a big local slave owner, of course, punishing Yunyun, that's all.

Lu Ning also noticed that Avadobao looked at the muskets in the hands of the musketeers at this time, and there was already a deep fear in his eyes.

"Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Dao Sect has this apologetic artifact!" Avadobo admired, and it looked like he really wanted to go up and rub the mysterious instrument a few times.

Lu Ning smiled and didn't speak.

"Brother Duan, if I want to become a believer in the Heavenly Dao Sect, I don't know, do I need a master of the sect to take the ordination for me? Is there such a ritual? Avadobao suddenly asked with some eagerness.
