Fang Guohuan hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, the two of us are from the original, and this eldest brother is also a Chinese." "The man was glad when he heard it;" I can't believe that I can still see two compatriots from my homeland in this Western Ocean, and I don't know what to call them in the next ten thousand? Fang Guolian and Luo Kun reported their names, and Cheng Wanxi said: "It turned out to be Brother Fang and Brother Luo, great!" Yay! Fortunately to meet the two, it is the blessing of the Buddha! ”

Cheng Wan then said: "I was sleeping, and I was pulled up, saying that I rescued two people on the boat, and no one could speak, let me take a look, it turned out that they were all Chinese." How did the two brothers wander the West? Isn't it a broken ship? Or was it robbed? ”

Fang Guochuan said: "This matter is a long story, the two of us sailed from the original to the Western Ocean by sea, and we didn't want to encounter a whirlwind, so we were swept to a desert island and lost contact with the original sea ship. The two of us didn't want to die on an isolated island, so we took the risk of drifting on a raft, hoping to reach a populated area or be rescued by a sea boat, and then turn back to the original place. It is a great blessing to die and finally meet this ship. ”

Cheng Wan was dumbfounded when he heard this, looked at the raft on the sea and the two of them like savages, still half-convinced, and then translated it into a foreign language and spoke to the owner and the sailors. When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, and they cast admiring glances at Fang Guolian and Luo Kun.

Cheng Wan introduced the shipowner at this time and said: "This is Captain John, an Englishman, who was exiled to Adan when he was young, got an opportunity, got started, bought this ship, and traded with Western countries. We and the others were sailors hired by Captain John, who was a good man, and the two brothers were blessed by the Buddha thanks to the fact that they met us. When Fang Guolian and Luo Kun heard this, they paid tribute to Captain John, and each stepped forward to salute.

Captain John also smiled to himself, bowed politely, and then said something to Cheng Wan, nodded to Fang Guolian and Luo Kun, and turned around and went back to the warehouse. Cheng Wan said: "Captain John asked me to take care of the two, just come with me." With that, he led the two to a narrow cabin, where several sailors helped to carry the gold and silver vessels.

Cheng Wan didn't notice these just now, but when he saw it at this time, he was taken aback and said: "I looked down on the two, it turned out to be a rich body." ”

Fang Guochuan said: "Because it floats on a raft, there is no water storage vessel, so it is used to hold water." Cheng Wanzhi was surprised and said: "The two of you fell into trouble on the island, but what treasure did you dig up?" These things are not easy to come by. ”

Fang Guohuan didn't want to tell the treasure cave of Daxi Island, so as not to cause trouble on the side, but he didn't want to deceive Cheng Wan, so he said: "This is what the two of us found in a cave by chance after they were swept to that isolated island by a whirlwind. ”

Cheng Wan nodded and said: "It seems that the pirates hid in that cave, and it was also created by the two of them." Glancing down at the jewel-laden leather bag, he knew that he had unearthed the pirate's treasure and that he had a treasure in it. Cheng Wan is also a loyal person, seeing that Fang Guolian and Luo Kun are surrounded by gold and silver, he knew that the two of them had an adventure, but he didn't ask anymore, and found some food and water for the two of them. Fang Guolian and Luo Kun had a big meal, and they felt even more energetic.

Fang Guolian then asked Cheng Wandao: "I don't know where this ship is going?" How can my two brothers go back to their original ways? Cheng Wandao: "Captain John went to Bad Harbor this time, which is the land of Pungge Thorn, that is, India, which is connected to the Western Regions. After the two disembarked from the port of Basham, they left India and entered the Western Regions, so that they could return to their original places and go by sea, without a suitable ship for a year and a half. ”

Luo Kun hurriedly said: "It's better to walk from the land, although it's harder, it's better than being steadfast on the sea, sailing on the sea, I'm afraid." Cheng Wandao: "It is not easy to return to the original from the land, it is extremely difficult to climb over the mountains and mountains, and it is more dangerous." However, I heard that there is also its own road from India to the city of Lhasa in the Western Regions, and it is not difficult to return to Lhasa when it arrives in Lhasa, but it takes a lot of time and is difficult to succeed. Fang Guochuan said: "No matter how difficult it is, we have to go again, there is always some hope." When Cheng Wan heard this, he was impressed.

Luo Kun said at this time: "Brother Cheng is a Chinese, why did he stay away from the original and mix with these Westerners?" ”

Cheng Wandao: "My ancestor is a native of Jinling, Jiangsu, after Zheng and Zheng led the fleet to the West, my great-grandfather as a comprador also followed, when he arrived in India's Azhi, he stayed, and my Cheng family has been worshiping Buddha for generations, and has been in India for a long time, so there is a long-term visit to the Buddha. Lord Zheng ordered his great-grandfather to be the envoy of the Ming Dynasty and stay in Azhi, and later some Chinese people came to live here, gave birth to grandchildren, and became an expatriate. ”

When Fang Guochuan heard this, he was surprised: "It turns out that Brother Cheng's ancestor arrived in India with Zheng He's fleet to the West, so Brother Cheng doesn't know what it looks like?" Cheng Wan heard this, sighed and said: "Because I was born overseas, I miss the scene of the national garden since I don't know it, but fortunately, the ancestors taught me not to forget my ancestors, the original language and some customs have been continued, and I dare not forget." Buddhism is boundless, and when a world of great harmony is achieved, then find an opportunity to go back to the original to find the roots and worship the ancestors. After speaking, Cheng Wan sighed again, and then asked some original things, Fang Guolian and Luo Kun told some of them, which made Cheng Wan infinitely fascinated, and then also talked about what he had seen and heard in India and Western countries, but the words were more than Buddhism.

Cheng Wan then found a few clothes and changed them into the animal skins on Fang Guolian and Luo Kun, which were mostly Westerners' clothes, which were narrow and compact to wear, which made Fang Guohuan and Luo Kun very uncomfortable. Cheng Wan smiled when he saw it: "These are the sailors' clothes, they will be worn, and they will stay in the spurs, find an old Chinese acquaintance, and ask for a few suitable clothes to wear." Fang Guolian and Luo Kun thanked themselves.

In the evening, Captain John sent someone to invite Fang Guohuan and Luo Kun to his warehouse for a banquet, and Cheng Wan also sat down to accompany him, and he was the right to be the translator. Captain John was also very friendly, persuaded wine and meat, and was very enthusiastic, and he was also impressed and admired by the legendary experience of the other party Guolian and Luo Kun.

Fang Guolian and Luo Kun were grateful for the grace of saving each other, and when they tasted the wine, it was particularly strong, and it was different from the original pure wine, so in the presence of Captain John, the two had to frown and drink a few glasses. Fortunately, Captain John was not very persuasive, so he asked Cheng Wan to translate and asked some things about how to drive the raft to float on the sea, and he was very much "K". That night, Fang Guolian and Luo Kun slept in Cheng Wan's warehouse.

In the middle of the night, Luo Kun's internal skills were exquisite, and he occasionally heard the sound of the warehouse door, and woke up as soon as he was alert, feeling that there were people outside the warehouse, and he hesitated and went, Luo Kun knew that the sailors on the ship were attracted by those gold and silver artifacts, and he didn't pay attention to it when he saw that he didn't move, but he knew that it would not be smooth in the future.

When he got up in the morning and finished eating, Cheng Wan led Fang Guolian and Luo Kun to walk around on the boat, and the two saw that the sailors on the ship had obvious differences in clothing, and most of them were not from one country or one place. Sure enough, Cheng Wan pointed out that so-and-so was a Tianfang person, a so-and-so was a Yaoluo person, a so-and-so was a Ceylonese person, and the one who wrapped his head with a long cloth was an Arab. All the sailors admired the bravery of Fang Guolian and Luo Kun in the raft sailing, and they all greeted each other warmly, but only three or four strong sailors stood aside and sneered at the two.

When Cheng Wan saw it, his heart was stunned, and he whispered to Fang Guolian and Luo Kun: "The sailors on the ship are all temporarily recruited and hired from all over the world, good and evil, it is inevitable that they are mixed, and there are a few more outlaws, and when they are in a hurry, they will do some harmful things. Although Captain John is there, he does not dare to rob it blatantly, but he will also do something secretly, the two brothers should be careful when they sleep, once something really happens, Captain John can't be calm. Fang Guolian and Luo Kun were secretly surprised, and they also had their own wariness in their hearts.

That night, I caught up with Cheng Wan on duty and was not in the warehouse, but Fang Guolian and Luo Kun were left. When Cheng Wan was leaving, he told the two of them again, don't sleep too hard, if there is any movement, he shouts loudly, and then closes the warehouse door. Fang Guochuan felt a little uneasy at this time, knowing that he was carrying a lot of jewelry, and it was inevitable that some bad sailors would take risks for this.

Luo Kun smiled on the side: "Brother Fang, don't be nervous, but forget the ability of the younger brother?" When Fang Guohuan heard this, he suddenly realized: "Yes, don't say a few villains, even the people on the boat together are not the opponents of the virtuous brother, I haven't seen the virtuous brother perform martial arts for a long time, but I forgot about it." But if you really have to do something, don't do it lightly, don't make trouble for the captain, after all, the two of us were rescued by the people on this ship. ”

Luo Kun said: "The little brother will understand, but these Westerners use knives, forks and iron tools for dinner, and their temperament will be rude, as long as they don't come ruthlessly, I will teach them a lesson." ”

Fang Guochuan said again: "Those conspicuous gold and silver artifacts will be sent to the people on the ship tomorrow, and some people's evil intentions will be eliminated first." Luo Kun said: "This is a very good idea, when you get off the boat, you will have to reward some of the jewels in the leather bag, as long as you know the current affairs, don't mess around, you won't have a loss." ”

Fang Guochuan said: "Captain John and Cheng Wan have another thanks." "Luo Kun said;" This is natural. Then he smiled and said, "You and I are so big-handed, the jewels will inevitably bring less, and they are piled up in that cave, it is a pity, bring more to avoid trouble." ”

Fang Guohuan shook his head and said: "As the saying goes, wealth is not exposed, but now that it has been put on the eyes of others, it is not stable to sleep, with these jewels, I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing?" Luo Kun said with a smile: "Gold and silver jewelry is a dead thing without heart and blood, only a person's greed can produce evil, but a good thought, you can also use them to do some good things, I think everything depends on the good and evil of people's hearts, no wonder these gold and silver dead things." ”

Fang Guohuan nodded and said: "What the virtuous brother said makes sense, although the good and evil of a person sometimes move with the environment, it is also that his heart is not very pure. ”

With Luo Kun by his side, Fang Guochuan also slept with peace of mind. Luo Kunfu moved those gold and silver utensils under the bed again, the leather bag and jewelry were only placed beside him, Luo Kun knew whether he and Fang Guohuan could return to the original smoothly, it all depended on these things, and he didn't dare to be too careless, the night gradually deepened, but he could smell the sea breeze gusting, the sound of the waves continued, and occasionally he could hear the drunken shouts and frolicking of the sailors, and in the second half of the night, he was also quiet.

Although Luo Kun was asleep, he was very alert, and at this time he suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps outside the warehouse, and under careful identification, there were four people. Walking to the door of the warehouse, the four people stopped, as if one of them leaned down to listen to the movement in the warehouse, Luo Kun was amused, so he deliberately snored a few times. Then, he felt that the bolt of the warehouse door was gently moved by the thin blade, and Luo Kun said in his heart: "It seems that the thieves in the world are all the way, and they all have the same robbery methods. But he didn't alarm the people outside the warehouse.

In an instant, the warehouse door was quietly pushed open. It's an old-fashioned job. When Luo Kun squinted, the darkness touched four people, and there was a faint cold light flashing, all of them with sharp blades. Luo Kun said in his heart: "These four people want to do it a lot, and they are too vicious, let a good sailor not do it, and do this business of making money and killing people, today thanks to being met by me, I changed someone else, and I was killed by these four guys." ”

Luo Kun was afraid that these four people would make a noise, which startled Fang Guolian, knowing that it was time to make a move, he didn't use the "Zhenru" sword, and his body suddenly walked around these four people like a ghost. These four sailors who wanted to do bad things came into the warehouse, thinking that they had succeeded, and they were not afraid of these two thin Orientals, when they were secretly happy, they suddenly saw a black shadow flashing in front of them, and they were shocked, but they felt that the cold wind was blowing on their faces, and they felt a numbness in their waists, and they couldn't move, and they were all sealed by Luo Kun in an instant.

The four sailors thought they had met the devil and had been spelled, and they were all frozen there in horror. As soon as Luo Kun got his hands on it, he was busy out of the warehouse, and when he saw that there was no movement in all directions, he turned back, one in one hand, walked back and forth twice, lifted the four sailors to the bow of the ship and put them horizontally, and then quietly returned to the warehouse and slept peacefully, everything was unconscious, clean and neat.

Early the next morning, Fang Guochuan was awakened by the noise outside the warehouse, and he didn't know what was going on. Luo Kun saw Fang Guohuan wake up, so he smiled and said, "It's a lively day." ”

Fang Guochuan was confused by Luo Kun's words, and when he wanted to get up and go out to see what was going on, as soon as the warehouse door opened, Cheng Wan walked in with surprise on his face, and shook his head and said, "Strange thing!" Strange! Tom, what the hell are they? Fang Guohuan hurriedly asked, "Brother Cheng, what's wrong?" ”

Cheng Wandao: "Speaking of which, the two of you won't believe it, this morning, everyone found that the sailor Tom, Bonn, Jie Duan, and the heavenly man Akachi, like an evil man, lay straight on the board of the boat, each with wide eyes, but unable to speak, and the four of them have no alcohol on their bodies, not like they are drunk and stiff and cause the wind, it seems that they are fascinated by evil ghosts, these four people are not good people, since the evil ghosts have been brought to the boat, fortunately, the Buddha blessed, there is no harm to others. ”

Fang Guochuan was surprised when he heard this: "There is such a strange thing? Suddenly seeing Luo Kun winking at him and snickering, Fang Guohuan realized that it must be the four sailors who came to make money at night, and they were restrained by Luo Kun. Fang Guochuan then said: "Go out and see, what has become of?" So he went out of the cabin with Luo Kun and Cheng Wan and came to the bow of the ship.

At this moment the sailors on board were looking with fear at the four men lying on the board, some of them were still holding a kind of cross on their chests, and their mouths were silently chanting something as if praying, and several of the black sailors were also facing the sea, prostrating themselves, all begging the gods they believed in to forgive the four sailors. And these four sailors are the four people who sneered at Fang Guolian and Luo Kun yesterday, and now they are lying there, each with a frightened look.

At this time, Captain John saw the strange and frightened appearance of the four sailors, and kept making the cross on his chest, as if he were praying for something. Luo Kun said to Cheng Wan on the side: "Brother Cheng, what French is Captain John reading?" ”

Cheng Wandao: "Captain John is a Christian, and he is saying, 'Lord! Forgive these four sinners! Bless us, good and innocent people, to reach land safely. ’”

Cheng Wan then shook his head and said, "Where is their god sending disaster to these four guys, but the evil ghost has possessed their bodies, so they have become like this." When Luo Kun heard this, he and Fang Guolian looked at each other and smiled.

Luo Kun immediately came to the front of the four sailors, pretending to be curious to watch, and secretly touched the waists and ribs of the four with his toes, and unraveled the acupoints of the four sailors without anyone noticing. When the sailors were in a panic, they suddenly saw the four people lying on the board of the ship sit up separately, and then knelt down in front of Luo Kun and kowtowed, looking very awe-struck, this unusual behavior puzzled Captain John and the sailors.

Seeing Cheng Wan's stunned appearance, Fang Guochuan said to him: "Last night, these four people came to Cangcang to make money, and they were sealed by my virtuous brother, which can be regarded as a punishment for them." ”

"Points?" Cheng Wanzhi was surprised and said, "The kind of person-fixing spell that Brother Luo Kun actually can tell?" Is there really such a point technique? ”

Fang Guochuan said: "This is a kind of technical attack technique of the original martial arts, it is not surprising, Brother Cheng lives overseas, he can't see it, the original martial arts master, how good is he to use this technique." Cheng Wanwen was pleasantly surprised: "This Luo Kun brother turned out to be a martial artist, and he dared to be a swordsman!" ”

At this time, Captain John heard some meaning from the words of the four sailors kneeling down to Luo Kun and pleading guilty, and knew that it was because Luo Kun did not move these four people, so he couldn't help but step forward and say something to Luo Kun in surprise.
