Then Bu Yuan, Lu Zhufeng and Zhao Chen and others greeted each other, Zhao's father, Zeng Ping, and Xiaosheng were already familiar with Bu Yuan, and saw that Lu Zhufeng was heroic and extraordinary, and he was also a hall master of the hall, and he was also respectful in his words, and then everyone sat down.

A servant offered tea, and everyone gave it to each other, Zeng Ping said to himself: "After Fang Gong was shipwrecked, everyone thought that there was no hope for Gong to survive, but I didn't expect to be able to return unharmed after a few years. ”

Zhao Chen sighed at this time and said: "It's a pity that there was also Hall Master Luo Kunluo who had an accident with the Gong back then, it seems that Hall Master Luo was really killed, this is all Zhao's sin." ”

Fang Guohuan hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhao, don't blame yourself, Luo Kun has also survived, because there is something in the hall, so I didn't rush to meet you, and when I get to the group of heroes, I will go to Baguio Villa." Zhao Chen, Zhao Mingfeng, Zeng Ping, and Xiaosheng were overjoyed when they heard this, and Zhao Chen hurriedly said: "Hall Master Luo is also like Fang Gong, who will not die in a catastrophe, and return together?" ”

Fang Guolian said: "It's about the same. Zhao Mingfeng said eagerly: "Brother Xian, tell me quickly, how did you two escape from death?" Back then, it was really good for everyone to be so sad that they didn't know how to live. ”

Fang Guochuan said: "Everyone was frightened, maybe it was the will of God, the whirlwind in the Western Ocean swept me and Luo Kun thousands of miles away, and finally fell into the sea and was washed on the beach of an island. This island is called Daxi Island, located in a remote place in the Western Ocean, Luo Kun and I have a big life, we did not take our lives by the whirlwind, and we were fortunate to live on this island. Originally, there was no hope of survival, but the two of us didn't want to die on the island, so we made a raft and risked drifting away with the wind in order to survive. ”

Fang Guochuan knew that the countless treasures in the treasure cave on Daxi Island and Yang Hansheng's life deeds were related to heaven, so he avoided them and didn't tell them, not because he was afraid that Zhao Chen and others would go to sea to explore again.

Fang Guochuan then said: "Luo Kun and I wandered on the boundless Western Ocean for many days, and after several dangers of wind and waves, we were rescued by a passing Western sea ship, and sailed for nearly a month before we could see the land and reach the Indian Buddha country. Zeng Ping was surprised at this time: "Can Fang Gong go back to the original country by land from India?" ”

Fang Guochuan said: "Yes, Luo Kun and I met several overseas Chinese in the local area, and with their help, we joined a group of long-distance Indian caravans that went to the Western Regions to do business, and traveled together, went through hardships and dangers, went out of India into the Western Regions, and arrived at Lhasa City in Tibet. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Chen, Zhao Mingfeng, Zeng Ping, and Xiaosheng were all surprised, and Xiaosheng shook his head and sighed: "It turns out that Fang Gong and Luo Tang Master have gone around in a big circle in the world, and they have really endured all the hardships, it's not simple!" It's not easy! Fang Guolian then said: "Luo Kun and I are particularly eager to return to the east, but at this time there was a rebellion in the Han land, the road was impassable, and the two of us were blocked in Tibet for several months. Fang Guolian's words made Zhao Chen and others sigh with emotion and marvel.

Zhao Chen said angrily at this time: "After the accident between Fang Gong and Luo Tang Master, Zhao regretted that trip to the West a little, but fortunately, both of you returned unharmed, which is really fortunate." Xiaosheng smiled and sighed: "Fang Gong and Luo Tang Master are both auspicious people, and there will be no reason to fold horizontally, but at that time, it really frightened everyone, and they lost the interest of sailing." ”

Fang Guochuan said: "I heard Brother Bu Yuan say that I didn't find the shipwreck of Zheng He on the bottom of the sea full of treasures back then. Zhao Chen shook his head and smiled: "It's okay to go home." Zeng Ping said with a smile: "When Brother Zhao built a ship and went to sea, it was originally to realize a trip to the West and walk along Zheng He's navigation chart. It was originally a complete thing, but I didn't want to accidentally lose Fang Gong and Luo Tang Master, but who knew that four years later, Fang Gong and Luo Tang Master miraculously returned safely, and the world was unpredictable. ”

Xiaosheng said: "From this point of view, Ximen Guang's "Going to Sea" is still incomplete, and it should make up for the adventures that Shanggong and Luo Tang Master experienced later." Bu Yuan said on the side: "Yes, yes, what Mr. said is the most reasonable, and this paragraph should be continued, so that those who read know that things in the world are very bizarre and strange, and they often exceed their imagination, believe it or not, it's up to them." Zhao Chen, Fang Guolian and others laughed when they heard it.

Fang Guochuan got up at this time and bowed to Zhao Chen: "I haven't been here for a few years, Xiaoquan has been taken care of by Uncle Zhao in every way, and he has taken care of it in every way, and he has taken it as a righteousness. ”

Zhao Chen hurriedly said: "Fang Gong should not be polite, Xiao Quantian is smart and witty, and it is also Zhao's blessing to be able to accept him as righteousness. If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Quan bravely refused the thief on the sea ship back then, Zhao would probably have been robbed by the Sea King, and now that he is a family, he won't be separated from you and me. ”

Zhao Mingfeng smiled at this time: "Brother Fang Xian, my righteous brother's chess skills are amazing, just like your skills back then, now several famous chess players in Suzhou City are no longer his opponents, and they are known as the 'Jiangnan Little Chess King'!" Fang Guohuan was overjoyed when he heard this, turned his head to Xiao Quan and smiled: "I haven't seen you for a few years, I thought your chess skills were unfamiliar." ”

Xiao Quan said respectfully: "Brother Fang's ability to teach, Xiao Quan doesn't dare to lose." Fang Guohuan nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, the chess skills have not been lost, and they are much more stable, and they have grown in all aspects, and it is not in vain that I will take you back." Zhao Mingfeng said: "In the past few years, Xiao Quan has been thinking about his virtuous brother every day, but he also wants to suffer him. ”

When Fang Guohuan heard this, his heart was a little sour, and he sighed and said: "After a few years, I didn't expect to see you again." Xiao Quan said aside: "Now it's okay, Xiao Quan will never leave Brother Fang again." Zhao Chen, Zeng Ping and others saw that Fang Guolian and Xiaoquan were so affectionate and righteous, and they were all moved.

Zhao Mingfeng said to Fang Guolian at this time: "Brother Xian, do you still remember that dark-skinned man named Mutan that our sea ship rescued on the Western Ocean back then?" Fang Guochuan said: "Naturally remember, what happened to this person?" ”

Zhao Mingfeng said: "I didn't expect this Mutan to be a person with a special identity, when the ship returned to the sea, he met a ship that came to look for him, and he knew that he was the king of a big country on the east coast of Africa." Fang Guochuan was surprised when he heard this: "When I saw that he knew a kind of African 'pan opera' technique, I guessed that he was not an ordinary person, but he had an identity, and he turned out to be the king of a big country." ”

Zeng Ping said at this time: "Fang Gong told Zeng about this back then, but when I asked Murtan, he concealed his identity and refused to say it, until he met the national ship that came to find him, and then he told the truth. It turned out that the ship that Mutan was riding on was sunk by the enemy's warship, and he escaped death and wandered at sea for several days before he was rescued by us, and at first he was a little wary of us, and then we made friends. ”

Zhao Mingfeng smiled at this time: "Does the virtuous brother want to see him?" Murtan now lives in his apartment in the city of Suzhou. Fang Guochuan was surprised when he heard this: "What? Mutan did not go with his own ship, but came with everyone? ”

Zhao Mingfeng said: "This King Murtan is a scheming person, he went back to China back then, but he asked Mr. Tang Qing for a shipbuilding drawing, and after returning to China, he built a large sea ship similar to the two ships of 'Taixuan' and 'Hailang'. At the beginning of this year, he carried many gifts and goods, and traveled thousands of miles to ride the wind and waves, and sent an envoy to the country. ”

When Fang Guohuan heard this, he exclaimed: "This Murtan is a knowledgeable king, and he wants to follow the example of Zheng He, who went to the West back then, and pay a return visit." ”

Zhao Mingfeng said: "There is also some intention to visit us to repay our kindness, King Mutan first arrived in the capital and met the emperor as an envoy of his own country. Since Zheng He went to the West, he created a precedent for friendly exchanges between China and Western countries, and the imperial court also attached importance to the visiting envoys of Western countries. ”

Hearing this, Fang Guohuan nodded and said, "King Mutan can visit the beautiful mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is not in vain to come to the country." Zhao Mingfeng said with a smile: "Brother Xian doesn't know, this African king has been fascinated by the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, saying that he has gone to heaven, and he does not want to return to China, and he wants to stay in Jiangnan for a long time. ”

Fang Guochuan was surprised: "I can't see it!" The king of Mutan was in such a mood. Zhao Chen smiled at this time: "It is also a good thing that King Mutan likes the country, this move is not something ordinary people can do, just in time for the Heroes Conference, and he was invited from below." Fang Guochuan nodded and said: "Yes, the Heroes Association will invite heroes and talents from all over the world, and those strange people from foreign countries will also be invited." Zhao Chen said: "What the public said is that this aspect has been taken into account, and there will be some exotic masters at that time." ”

Zhao Mingfeng smiled at this time: "King Mutan may come to the village tomorrow, and he may be shocked to see the virtuous brother of the country, Uncle Zeng must explain to him, and we people can't talk to him." Zeng Ping smiled: "This is natural." ”

Bu Yuan said to Zhao Chen at this time: "Mr. Zhao, Bu Mou is ordered by the head of the Hetang to escort Brother Fang Xian to Guizhuang to meet you, but also to make a front stop for the Hetang to participate in the Heroes Conference, if there is any help, we will try our best to help." ”

Zhao Chen said: "The world's largest gang can participate in the group of heroes held by Zhao, and even the head of the hall is personally here, it is really the honor of the village, but also to increase the momentum and brilliance of the group of heroes, and then Zhao will personally go to meet the master of the hall and the heroes of the hall." Now the Baguio Villa has prepared the largest house in the village 'Ning Garden' for the Hetang, which is exclusively for the use of the Hetang, and other aspects are also assured that everything is taken care of. ”

When Bu Yuan heard this, he hurriedly got up and thanked: "This is the best, Bu Mou thanked Mr. Zhao on behalf of him." Zhao Chen said: "Yes, the master of the hall should not be polite, and tonight the master of the hall and the master of the hall Lu can enter the 'Ning Garden', if there is an inappropriate place, it is better to improve it in advance, so that when the master of the hall arrives, he will be satisfied with the arrangement of the village." Bu Yuan and Lu Zhufeng heard this, and they thanked themselves. Zhao Chen then said to Fang Guolian: "I didn't know that Gong Fang would be able to come back safely to participate in the Heroes Meeting, and the former residence of the Duke 'Cuiyuxuan' has already arranged people, and it is inconvenient to change it again, so I will ask the Duke to live with the heroes of the hall in 'Ning Yuan'." ”

Fang Guohuan was overjoyed when he heard this: "It's exactly what I want." Xiao Quan said on the side: "Father-in-law, I also want to live in 'Ning Garden' with Brother Fang." Zhao Chen smiled: "It's okay, I haven't seen you for a few years, you two have a lot to say, but after the arrival of the hall master, you should be careful when you enter and exit, don't be disturbed." Xiao Quan said happily: "Thank you father-in-law, as long as I can live with Brother Fang, I will pay attention." Zhao Chen smiled and nodded.

Fang Guohuan saw that Zhao Chen had arranged such a thorough and meticulous arrangement in order to hold the Heroes Meeting, and he was convinced: "It seems that Uncle Zhao has spent a lot of effort for the Heroes Conference, which should be admirable." ”

Zhao Chen said with a smile: "It is really a happy life to be able to invite all the unemployed strange people in the world to gather in Baguio Villa, and you can meet the heroes of the world at one time and one place." This meeting is unprecedented, everything is busy, ordinary people may not be able to straighten it out, but there is one person in charge of the overall situation, plus Brother Ping and Brother Xiaosheng help vigorously, everything is going very smoothly, and I am also idle. Fang Guochuan was surprised when he heard this: "I don't know who Fang Gao is in charge of the overall situation?" It's so well arranged. ”

Zeng Ping said at this time: "This person is none other than the Great Butler of Song." When Fang Guolian heard this, he realized: "Yes, except for Mr. Song Luyang, who can have such a great talent." Zeng Ping said: "This group of heroes conference, although it was funded and hosted by Brother Zhao Chen, everything was arranged by Mr. Song, and the servants were transferred; Message delivery, welcome and send-off placement, all comprehensive, clear and orderly. Fang Guohuan was impressed when he heard this, knowing that this group of heroes conference was unprecedented in scale.

Fang Guolian's arrival was a surprise to Zhao Chen and others, Han Xing'er got the news and hurriedly came to meet her, and immediately cooked in person, set up a banquet in the food building Xianpintang, and washed the dust for Fang Guolian.
