When I heard the news of Huamei, my heart was also mixed. But it had been decided before, no matter what, to help her again. Whatever she wants, I've done my moral duty, right?

At the beginning, I was forced to leave helplessly, I was chased by her at sea and I tried my best to preserve, I heard that there was a situation in the Li family, I traveled thousands of miles to help, and I did not change my original intention after the problem was solved. I think I've done my best.

As for her proposal to go to sea on her own, and rejected my offer several times, it didn't matter if she was embarrassed or not, it was chilling to refuse my worries and concerns about her safety.

As for how dangerous I was in the battle and what I encountered after going south, of course, it was my own business, and there was no reason for her to pay attention and care, right?

Plus those rumors that I heard later...... How to say it, forget it, just think of it as a help between friends!

According to Nuno Santos, half a month ago, Huamei and that ...... Well...... It is said that Charlie, a royal friend from Britain, turned against each other for some reason and fought fiercely in the waters near Sofala!

Charlie was weak and defeated Hua Mei, so he fought and walked all the way and fled to the south! Presumably to bypass the Cape of Good Hope and flee into the British-controlled sphere of influence in West Africa!

I frowned secretly when I heard this, if Hua Mei entered the encirclement of British forces, I am afraid it would be a bad and auspicious ending!

So, I had to rush to the Cape of Good Hope at full speed, go around the southern tip of the African continent, and start heading northwest!

This is exactly in line with my general direction, but the itinerary is a bit rushed and ...... And we have just solved the threat of the Santos Chamber of Commerce, at this time the rear is unstable, and this is time to leave......

Woodin saw my suspicions, and his advice was to hold steady for the time being, and not to rush after the fleet ahead.

There are three reasons for this:

First, as I just said, we have just occupied a large area of business circles in East Africa, and this is a great opportunity to establish prestige and enhance the relationship with managers and people! It's not worth it to leave for someone, for someone who doesn't know where yet.

Second: I don't know if the news of Nuno Santos is true or not, if you rush to chase it for the sake of unwarranted news, I am afraid that it will be a trap.

Third: and the most important point - the Spanish forces lurking behind the scenes have not come out for a long time, he always feels that the other party is spying on secretly, and at this time he should concentrate his forces and protect the group to keep warm!

I knew that Wooding was genuinely thinking about me, afraid that I would fall into a trap. But...... I don't know why, but I always had an indescribable worry in my heart - I don't know where it came from, but I always felt a little panicked in my heart, as if something was about to happen!

Seeing that my face was not good, the kite comforted: "Sir, I know you are worried, but Mr. Wooding is right, this is indeed not a good time to leave. Otherwise, the selected ship sailors, Arashi and I will solve your worries for you, and you will stay and stabilize the overall situation, okay? ”

After saying that, she gently took my hand and looked at me sincerely. Lan listened to Kite's words, and although she didn't say anything, her eyes were also staring at me very resolutely, which meant that she was willing to go.

My heart is so warm! I know that the kite is afraid that I will be in danger, so I would rather take my own risk!

Under the stirring of feelings in my heart, I laughed twice, suddenly grabbed the kite's hand, and then held Lan with my backhand, and announced loudly to everyone: "I have something to announce!"

Everyone didn't know what I had suddenly done, and they all looked at me with blank eyes.

I smiled and said, "Actually, we have already discussed, and I am ready to get married with Kite and Lan!" And then there's the next thing! ”

I knew in my heart that the reason why Kite and Lan were ready to go for me was because they were worried about safety, but how could I agree? I don't want to catch and pursue a woman who has abandoned me thousands of miles away with such sincerity?

Everyone was stunned for a long time, and suddenly they started to coax loudly together! Especially the nine ghosts who followed me at the earliest, Masayo, Mo and others, were even more excited and almost wanted to cry!

For example, when Old Tucker asked the question of who was older and who was smaller, I naturally answered: no matter how big or small.

Another example is the question of the nine ghosts Masataka asking for boys and girls. Kite and Lan were ashamed of themselves, but I replied calmly: Those who come will not refuse!

The wolf clan suddenly cheered again!

And finally, most importantly – auspicious days! But there is no one in our group who can pinch and count!

According to my meaning, how can people who are from all over the world pay so much attention? But these people didn't agree, saying that they must pay attention to it, and the ancestors should pay attention to it.

As a result, these people were stunned to find a person who understood yin and yang feng shui from the trainee navigators, named Xu Kun was the Chinese descendant we recruited from the dandelion bar when we were in Manila, the one who was good at measuring, I didn't expect to be able to pinch and calculate!

This guy took out a perpetual calendar out of nowhere, flipped through it for a long time, looked up and frowned: "Captain! The auspicious day of the zodiac of the month was just yesterday! If this is the most auspicious day, I'm afraid it will be next month! ”

I couldn't help frowning and asked, "Jiji's can too!" It doesn't have to be that big! ”

Old Tucker glared at Xu Kun, and then smiled: "The groom is in a hurry to have a cave room!" You even made him wait another month? ”

The crowd laughed. Kite and Lan were embarrassed and hid directly behind me.

When Xu Kun heard this, he patted his head, and after a long time of serious calculation, Fang said with a bitter face: "Captain!" The rest of the month is indeed not suitable for marriage! It will be the eighth day of the next month at the earliest! ”

I was about to speak, but the kite said, "Sir, you have this intention, and we are satisfied!" Next month, next month, no hurry! Now it's important to set the future! ”

After listening to the kite's words, everyone calmed down. I smiled and looked at the kite and said, "That's the right thing!"

After saying that, I forgot about Wu Ding and said, "Dude, there is a lot of trouble for you to worry about here!" I'm going to let Kite and Arashi, my two brides-to-be, stay in Sofala to prepare all the things for the wedding, and I'll lead the team on a trip, and no matter what the situation is, I will definitely return to Sofala before the eighth day of next month to get married! ”

Seeing that I insisted on going, Wooding smacked his lips and said, "Okay! The boss is not there, and so is the hostess! Be careful when you go, and come back on time for happy events! ”

I turned my head to look at the two girls and said, "I can't let you take the danger for me!" So I'm definitely going on my own, and you guys stay and prepare, okay? ”

The two said in unison: "No!"

I smiled helplessly and said, "You know, Hua and I ...... After all, Miss Li and I have a marriage contract first, and this can be regarded as a moral fulfillment, a good beginning and a good end. No one else can replace this! Rest assured! When I came back, we got married immediately. ”

The kite shook his head and said, "Mr. has a beginning and an end, I admire him very much." The idea was, go together! Arashi and I will be with you no matter what! No matter where you go! ”

Lan nodded, and Fang said softly, "That's what I mean." If you want to go, let's go together. ”

There was a collective silence in the room. After a long time, Wooding sighed and said, "O people who are trapped by love! Nine camels can't pull it back! Like me, if you only talk about love, not love, you won't have this problem! ”

Hearing his words, my heart was slightly relieved, and I smiled: "Who has such a good life as your Young Master Wu Ding!" I'm a miserable man! ”

After speaking, I turned my head to look at Kite and Lan, and was about to speak, but the two grabbed my arm and said resolutely: "Either you don't go!" We're going to go together! ”

Eventually, I left Mo and Tucker Sr. in Sofala to take care of the situation in East Africa for me, using the ships captured from the Santos Chamber of Commerce. Others took the original five boats and prepared to sail south to the Cape of Good Hope and sail to West Africa!

In the afternoon of the same day, the supplies were all sorted out, after all, it had been at sea during this time, and all the war supplies were neat. After a simple resupply, you can leave the port.

However, when I inspected the ship for the last time, the mainmast of the flagship was swayed for a long time by a sudden gust of wind, and finally broke off with a "click"!

Everyone was shocked! Nine Ghost Zhengxiao has received military training since he was a child, and he is even more worried and said: "Breaking the banner before the expedition is not good for the boss!" Sir, in my opinion, let's postpone the departure! ”

I was also very depressed. This ship has been in good condition since it was bought, and it has been checked repeatedly, why did this suddenly happen?

I had the intention to postpone the departure, but I thought about it: the order has been issued, if you are afraid because of these unnecessary things, how can you let everyone serve to the death in the future?

So I laughed a few times and said, "We have been adrift on the sea all year round, what is so terrible about encountering some wind and waves?" If you are too scared to move at such a small movement, how will you be able to cross the seven seas in the future? Why compete with various forces? ”

Everyone was silent, and Arashi immediately called the carpenter, and with the full cooperation of Halleha, the main mast was quickly repaired!

When night falls, everything is ready. I immediately gave the order - go! Target, Cape of Good Hope!

The five ships sailed out of the port of Sofala and drifted away under the watchful eyes of Woodin, Mo, and Old Tucker, and finally disappeared into the night.

To be honest, I wasn't worried about the danger when I came out this time - letting Nuno Santos go, coupled with the fact that the Spanish forces behind me had been watching on the side, made me feel a little uneasy.

However, due to many factors, I had to hurry up and go to sea. But after I came out, I took a lot of measures to improve the safety factor.

After leaving the port, I ordered the fleet to head straight east - not directly south, but around Madagascar and in a circle south! If they intercepted me around here, they wouldn't have expected my route to be so treacherous!

After rounding Madagascar, we headed straight south, directly out of the ocean, but not southwest against the coastline! That's the best I can think of!

It probably took us three more days to make the journey, but for safety, that's all we can do!

Twelve days later, having estimated that the distance to the south was almost complete, we turned the ship around and headed straight north. About a day later, we faintly saw a protruding piece of land to the east!

If nothing else, it's the Cape of Good Hope! This is also the result according to the measurement estimates. That is, we are now on the land and the sea of West Africa, no longer the territory of the Spaniards, but the control of the British!

At this point, I breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone relaxed a lot. After all, the Spaniards were safe and sound, and when it came to the British, could their sworn enemies, the Spaniards, make any trouble?

"It's just that according to the time, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back to the wedding." Sitting on the bow deck, I smiled and said to the kite.

The kite leaned her head on my shoulder and said gently, "The wedding is just a formality!" Unimportant! As long as I can be with you, as long as you have me in your heart, no matter where I am, I am happy! ”

I sighed softly and gently took the kite into my arms again......
