Part 5 Pirate Legends 82, Searching for the Holy Grail

Oretto had already received a report from the patrol speedboat, and learned that the envoys sent to capture Zhu Hui had all been captured by the natives of the Solomon Islands and sentenced to death, suspecting that Zhu Hui and others had rebelled; Isezhen knew Zhu Hui's personality very well, even if he ran back to the New World and would not come, he would not rebel because of this, and persuaded the king to take the initiative to admit his mistake and go to the dock to meet the "great general" in person.

As early as under the guidance of Hong Zhenren, Oreto had the "ambition of the bird", unwilling to be a "fan king" on the isolated island in the depths of the ocean, he had no choice but to accept Zhang Gou'er's proposal, the kingdom of Osea depended on the Ming Dynasty, not only to stabilize the independence of Oseia, but also to ensure that the king was not interfered with by foreign countries, in order to show loyalty to the court, hoping to become a transit point for Chinese merchants and the Philippines, Japan, India and the Ming Dynasty mainland trade, because of the temporary inability to get the canonization of the imperial court, can only establish a non-governmental organization, set up a "Hongmen" to recruit heroes from all over the world, Flexibly handle relations with Western countries, therefore, the best candidate for the head of the "Hongmen" meeting is Zhu Hui.

Isezhen no longer has any delusions, and hopes that the child can help Oreto to make the Kingdom of Osea prosperous, and unify this lonely archipelago in the depths of the ocean in the future, no worse than the Japanese archipelago, but not vulnerable to external invasion, as long as everyone works together, maybe we can build a paradise on earth here.

In this way, King Aureto and Zhang Gou'er, Isezhen and others reached an agreement, accompanied by the two of them, to bring Queen Zhizi and the civil and military ministers to welcome the victory of the "Governor General" to return to the court.

Zhu Hui, surrounded by 300 Praetorian Guards, stepped onto the pier and hurriedly bowed to the king of Aureto and Queen Child.

"Minister Zhu Hui meets my lord Chitose, Chitose......"

Oreto showed a reserved smile, waved his hand and replied: "Aiqing is exempt, in the past year, you have led all the soldiers to guard the frontier for this king, and this king is very grateful for this, and I hope that Aiqing will make persistent efforts to open up the territory for this king." ”

"Chen Cheng is sincerely afraid, and he does not dare to slack off in the slightest."

Regardless of whether the two of them are hypocritical or not, the courtesy of the monarch and the minister is necessary, and they are quite serious with each other, and at the same time, the childish son is receiving Han Xiaoyu, showing sincerity and affection......

Zhu Hui found that almost all of the people who could come came, but he didn't see Jack, and thought he had left here, on the way back to the royal court, through Zhang Gou'er's introduction, he knew about the establishment of the "Hongmen", Jack and others originally wanted to leave, when he learned that he was going to set up a "Freemasonry" rudder, and Zhu Hui was the leader, he decided not to leave for the time being, and wanted to mix up a "deputy helmsman" to be dang, and then return to the New World Fox Fake Huwei.

Jack and the others were not considered the subjects of Oseia, and Oretto ignored them, but they were all willing to belong to the "Hongmen", because the head of the guild should come back soon, and they wanted to build a "Hongmen Hall" in their own way, but no one stopped them, and they were still working at the moment.

At this time, Zhu Hui only figured out the cause and effect, and was deeply glad for Oreto and Zhizi, but he felt that it seemed a little inappropriate to associate "Hongmen" with "Freemasonry", but considering Zhang Gou'er's good intentions, he would face frequent dealings with Westerners in the future, and he had to use a way that they could understand, so that they could be attached to his door, which was a good choice.

The general and governor returned to the dynasty victoriously, the king and queen gave Zhu Hui and his wife great courtesy, and the celebrations were held for several days, and the "Hongmen Hall" built by Jack and others had been completed, and was waiting for the helmsman to come......

Jack was ordered by the governor of New Spain to go to the Solomon Islands to "labor army", and by the way, he took his hands to conduct field surveys of the islands, and after returning to officially declare that the Solomon Islands belonged to the Great Spanish Empire, at the same time, he was also full of confidence that Zhu Hui would definitely be willing to accept the canonization of the empire, and he would be able to follow the light, make a deputy governor, and return to his hometown of the Netherlands in the future, which can be regarded as a nobleman.

Contrary to Jack's expectations, Zhu Hui refused to take refuge in Spain, and the authorities of the New World were currently unable to send troops to conquer the Solomon Islands.

Although he has been a pirate leader for half his life, Jack has no ambitions, but he was tempted by the crystal bracelet to become the "king of the world, the master of the temple", witnessing a series of magical events, as those magical treasures disappeared one by one, only the bronze mirror and the ring on Zhu Hui's hand remained, and he also returned to his original ideal, that is, to join the mysterious organization "Freemasonry", relying on the organization, continuing to fight with the Holy See, hoping to be edicted by the empire.

Jack's current identity is not only an intelligence officer of the colonial authorities, but also a member of the mysterious organization "Freemasonry", with Zhu Hui's "help", now these two ideals have been realized, he feels very relieved, and has always regarded Zhu Hui as his benefactor.

If Zhu Hui is still the general and governor of Osea, to be honest, it is really difficult to get Jack to be loyal to him, but fortunately, Zhang Gou'er used the move of setting up the "Hongmen" not only to solve the hidden danger in the heart of King Oseia, but also to bring an unexpected opportunity to this "Fanbang Yimin", as long as the helmsman Zhu Hui agrees, he can become the "deputy helmsman", with this identity to command the rivers and lakes, and do not have to be constrained by the government and the church, and when the future is prosperous, even if he is given the post of governor of Puerto Rico, There was no longer any temptation for him.

was involved in Osea again, before joining the "Hongmen", Jack had his own plans, according to what he saw and heard, as well as the information provided by Fernando, he knew that the pirate inheritance transported by the White Sea Mountain was by no means only the Golden Covenant Ark, besides, those are all good things, it is impossible for them all to be sunk to the bottom of the sea, and it is impossible for them to be buried in the Solomon Islands, Oseia must have treasures, but the White Sea Mountain is too cunning, he doesn't even say his own son, he must be afraid that the treasure will cause trouble, and everyone will forget about it after many years, Then let those treasures bless the generations to come.

In fact, Lin Feng also judged so, he was also smart, he really found a "refuge" on the beach, and even calculated the location that might be buried according to the prompts of the "Zhou Ji Sutra", however, except for the ring through Mendena, the existence of the golden covenant chest could be vaguely perceived, in the end, all the treasure hunters found nothing.

Shen Mao, who was dead, secretly climbed onto Jack's galleon, to be honest, Jack wanted to throw him into the sea several times, just because Shen Mao knew very well about Florida's "Fountain of Youth", as an intelligence officer, he attached great importance to it, and he could hear that Shen Mao and Hendry's mistress seemed to have a leg, and they originally planned to return to Acapulco and use Shen Mao to catch this woman, but due to Isezhen's troubles, he lost a good opportunity and had to come to Oseia again, and in the future, he would use Zhu Hui and others to deal with the difficult "sea beggar guerrillas".

According to Jack's information, Hendry and his "sea beggar guerrillas" were not uninterested in the legacy of the pirate Wang Nao, but because he was in a hurry to return to Amsterdam for an important meeting, he delayed their treasure hunt, but when they crossed the Atlantic to Florida, they were attracted by the legendary "Fountain of Youth".

The seven northern provinces of the Great Spanish Empire are independent, and the "Utrecht Alliance" has just been established, and Hendry, who has returned to the New World, is not what it used to be, and now he has the support of the big merchants of the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg to fight against the empire all over the world, Hendry is over sixty years old, and he has brought a large group of women from Europa, and any treasure is more tempting for him than to rejuvenate him.

Hendry crossed the ocean to Florida, the first thing he did was to control the "fountain of youth", the sea beggar guerrillas expanded their power to Cuba, Haiti and other Caribbean waters, curbed the Spanish trade routes in the Atlantic, and wanted to repeat his good show in Malacca, however, the New World is not as good as the Philippines, the guerrillas are always facing the encirclement and suppression of the Imperial Navy, especially after his old rival Fernando came to power, which made him even more uncomfortable.

Hendry drank the "Fountain of Youth" for nearly a year, but it never worked, he became more and more old, during this period, the women he brought from Europa ran away a lot, including a woman named Sophie, who ran alone to Acapulco as a courtesan, and happened to meet Shen Mao, who had just come here, Shen Shaogongzi, as the younger brother of the local wealthy businessman, was polite and generous to Miss Sophie, and the unique oriental elegance of Brother Jinling made her even more distracted, just like that, She told Shen Mao Hendry's secret......

More than 10 years ago, the "Fountain of Youth" once rejuvenated the Governor of Puerto Rico, but it was not fulfilled in Hendry, after some inquiry, it turned out that the cup used by the Governor of Puerto Rico was very unusual, it is said that he used the "Holy Grail", bought from the first mate under the navigator Mendner, needless to say, it must be those ignorant pirates in the Middle East, who monopolized the "Holy Grail" many times, and finally fell into the hands of Wang Zhi, a super pirate in the East, and was transported to Osea by Bai Haishan, maybe Wang Zhi's treasure is too much, Just because of opening the mysterious gold cabinet, several people died, so they had to sink this thing to the bottom of the sea, Bai Haishan was still in a hurry to rescue Wang Cuiqiao, and he really didn't have the ability to identify them one by one, resulting in a piece of "artifact" falling into the people......

Carlos and others failed in the treasure hunt in the Solomon Islands, Hendry had already heard about it, just because he was still looking for the "Holy Grail" in the New World, and wanted to rejuvenate as soon as possible, maybe it won't be too long, he will inevitably come to the treasure hunt, this is not like Jack's rabble, nor is it like the Carlos Paladin regular army, if there are no extraordinary means to deal with them, I'm afraid that Osea will be destroyed.

In this way, with the possession of Solomon's ring and the "Freemasonry" token, Zhu Hui was publicly elected as the head of the "Hongmen Hall", Jack and others were all very religious, and welcomed Zhu Hui into the "Hongmen Hall" to hold a "apprenticeship" ceremony here......

"Hongmen Hall" is an imitation of the Chinese ancestral hall style building, because the "Freemasonry" allows all theists to join, in order to reflect the meaning of the "Hongmen" to embrace the world, it not only enshrines the Greek sun god Apollo, Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary, but also the Buddha Shakyamuni, the Zoroastrian god of wisdom Ahura Mazda, the incarnation of Brahmin Vishnu Krishna, not to mention the Taoist Sanqing ancestors, but the three immortal masters of Yuqing, Shangqing, and Taiqing are shaped very similar to Westerners, and there are also some unknown gods, I don't know where it came from......

After the ceremony, Jack asked Zhu Hui to stay alone, and told everything he had mastered without reservation, and he already knew how to find the Holy Grail, hoping that Zhu Hui would appoint him as the "deputy helmsman".
