Chapter 54: Discovery

Seeing Shi Qian gobbling up, Zhu Qing cautiously reminded, "Brother Shi Qian, slow down, there is." ”

Seeing Zhu Qing looking at himself and thinking about his eating appearance, Sai Shiqian suddenly smiled embarrassedly and said, "To make you laugh, I'm really hungry and panicked, and I haven't eaten for two days." ”

"Oh? A year ago, Zhu Qing saw that the Shiqian brothers were still like fish in water, and they had beautiful women as companions. Is this going on? Zhu Qing asked.

"Hey, it's a long story, that's right, I used to have a good life, although I was said to be a thief in Jiangyang, but I only robbed those official eunuchs, rich families. But who knew that in just one year, the Shandong Righteous Army rioted, and the White Lotus Righteous Army swept the entire Shandong in less than half a year, echoing Shaanxi from afar. At this time, most of the rich have become poor, and the poor have become beggars, or they will join the rebel army. Besides, half a year ago, I gave birth to a son with Qin Xiang, and I wanted to live a good life, but I didn't expect that I lost my job, no, I couldn't help it, I went to sea. Sai Shiqian said, sighing.

"Turned into a pirate?" Zhu Qing asked.

Sai Shiqian nodded, "No matter how powerful it is on this land, there is still business on this sea." In those days, I tasted some sweetness, specializing in foreign merchant ships, and some oil and water. But who knew that in recent times, there has been a sudden decrease in merchant ships, and warships have frequently appeared near the coast. Although I have some three-legged cat kung fu, how can I mess with those big guns and cannons? ”

"Wait, you just said there were warships along the coast? But my Ming warship? Zhu Qing stopped the game.

Sai Shi Qian paused, thought for a moment, and shook his head, "It's not." I have been moving around the rivers and lakes for so long, and I still have this knowledge, and it should be a foreign ship. However, it is estimated that he was afraid of the Ming warships, so he only wandered in the open sea and did not dock much. ”

Zhu Qing listened, nodded, and fell into deep thought, he picked up the wine bowl, touched it with Sai Shiqian, and took a sip, "Go on." ”

"Because of the appearance of the warship, some friends and I in the rivers and lakes wanted to go a little farther and avoid the warship. No, I just did a vote yesterday, I didn't expect it to be a Japanese merchant ship, and I didn't expect that this merchant ship was full of Japanese samurai, and those of my friends in the rivers and lakes were killed and wounded, and I had to flee north, but I didn't expect those samurai to chase after me, and then I met you. You know the rest of the story. Said with a shrug.

"Do you have a good understanding of what the Japanese merchant ships do? Or, what's in there? Zhu Qing asked.

"Nope. At that time, we swept around and didn't get anything of value back, so we withdrew, but I didn't expect the movement to be too big and exposed. Sai Shiqian shook his head.

Zhu Qing stood up, paced a few steps around the room, and muttered, "There's no reason." More than a dozen of them chased one person, chasing after each other, was it just to take a breath? ”

"I remember." Suddenly, Sai Shiqian slapped the table and exclaimed, "I remember, when I was leaving, I took a book from the ship." ”

"What book?" Zhu Qing excitedly walked towards the time of the game.

Sai Shiqian took out a book from his chest and handed it to Zhu Qing, "That's it, I saw him on the captain's desk at the beginning, pressed by an inkstone, and thought that it might be a treasure, so I took the sheep with my hand." ”

Zhu Qing took the book and looked at it, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Artifact Spectrum?!" ”

"What? Do you know this book? Is it really a treasure? Seeing Zhu Qing's surprised expression, Sai Shiqian asked curiously.

"If I'm not mistaken, this book is written by Zhao Shizhen, a scholar of the Ming Dynasty, which records the manufacture and use of many weapons in the Ming Dynasty, which can be said to be a treasure of the soldiers." Zhu Qing said excitedly that when he was studying, he liked to dabble in military historical materials the most, and now he is of course very excited to see the veritable "Artifact Spectrum", and he can't put it down.

"Is this really that good at this book?" Sai Shiqian asked suspiciously.

Zhu Qing nodded, "This is the reason why the Japanese samurai are chasing you, they don't just want to kill you, but more importantly, the book you have in your hand." Think about it, what era is it now? ”

"What era?" Of course, I don't know.

"In the era of hot weapons, those swords and swords are nothing." Zhu Qing explained.

"No, I think the knives in your box are very powerful, besides, don't those Japanese samurai chase me with knives?" The race time moved and asked.

"Hey, how can I tell you? It's not the same. Let's put it this way, didn't you see the warship? Are the guns fired by those warships along the coast a thousand times more powerful than these swords and swords? Before you can draw your sword, the cannon will blow you to pieces. Zhu Qing said.

Sai Shiqian nodded, "Listening to you say this, it really makes sense, but we have also patronized some warships along the coast, and the cannons on them are rusty and rotten, so I guess they can't shoot cannons, right?" ”

"Hey, this is the sorrow of Daming." Zhu Qing sighed.

In his history course memory, the Ming navy is very awesome, and now that he has come to this step, it can only be said that people's hearts have collapsed, and the equipment has been delayed.

"Hey, I'm full of food, and I said, do you want to let me go or lock me up in a dark room?" During the game, he clapped his hands, wiped his mouth and stood up and said.

"If you want to leave, of course I won't stop you, just like you said, I believe you are just robbing the rich, let you go, and save us Jinyiwei from doing something; Of course, if you want to stay, heh, I'm not going to shut you down, I'm going to reuse you. Zhu Qing looked at the time of the game and said with a smile.

"Reuse me? Are you overhapping? You are an official and I am a thief, will you reuse me? Besides, why should I believe you? Sai Shiqian said suspiciously.

"I guess you've forgotten something?" Zhu Qing smiled meaningfully at the time of the game.

"Forgot something?" Sai Shiqian asked rhetorically.

"Think about it, how did you promise me to come into the house and talk?" Zhu Qing moved the time of the game.

"Oh, I remember, yes, yes, I haven't asked you yet, where did you get your name?" Shi Qian suddenly realized, pointed to Shi Qian and asked.

"Daddy took it."

"Father, ......?" The race time shifted to inquire.

"Hahaha, I don't think you can guess, I'm a brocade guard, do you think I'll tell you? I can tell you that when I was chasing you in Cangzhou, it wasn't how fast you ran, but how I saw the tattoo on your shoulder! After Zhu Qing smiled, he quietly stared at the time of the game. There is an undoubted light in his eyes.

"You! Are you really a young master? "I almost screamed. was booed by Zhu Qing, and he consciously lowered his voice.

"Can you trust me now?" Zhu Qing asked.

"It's incredible, the Zhu family was wiped out back then, I thought there was no one to survive except me, but I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it." When he saw Zhu Qing in front of him, he suddenly remembered the tragedy of the Zhu family more than ten years ago, and he was very emotional.

"Actually, there are other people besides you and me." Zhu Qing sighed and said, although he had not been able to personally experience the Zhu family's extermination case, he could feel the helplessness and grief of the eldest young master of the Zhu family from this body.

"Anyone else?"

"Xiaobao, you should still remember that my personal buddy, and a family member, I guess you won't know it." Zhu Qing thought of Xiaobao and sighed.

"Who?"

"Brother Cheng!"

"Brother Cheng? Back then, I felt like he was trapped in the fire and didn't come out. How? He's alive? "It's a big deal to be confused.

"Hmph, it seems that although you have been famous in Shandong over the years, you don't have to ask about many things. You should know that Li Zicheng, the leader of the current army, right? ”

"Li Zicheng won't be the elder brother of the Zhu family, right?"

"Exactly!"

"It's really a trick." Sai Shiqian shook his head, he couldn't believe these facts, and he couldn't believe that he didn't even know about this, no wonder those brocade guards laughed at him just now.

"What about Xiaobao? Where is it now? Sai Shiqian asked.

"Dead. was shot to death by Gao Yingxiang. Zhu Qing said and sighed.

Seeing that Zhu Qing was sad for a while, Sai Shiqian didn't know how to comfort him, but just patted him lightly on the shoulder. Walk to the window and look out at the scenery. I didn't expect to meet the old people after so many years, but unfortunately everyone's appearance has changed, and what hasn't changed may be the complex of that time.

"If you're leaving, leave while it's dark." Zhu Qing came back to his senses and said to Sai Shiqian. Because even if Zhu Qing intends to let the game move, but just because the game time move has been stealing for many years, the government will not let him go easily, and besides, escaping from Zhu Qing is not good for Zhu Qing. Zhu Qing was thinking about an escape plan during the gang game.

"What if I want to stay?" It seems that the race has changed its mind.

"Then Shanhaiguan will have one more helper." Zhu Qing walked to the side of Shi Qian and also looked out the window, "Of course, if you want to stay in the team, you still need some actions." ”

"What move?"

"I can trust you for your actions, but everyone knows that you are a thief, and you have to make them feel that you need to stay." Zhu Qing analyzed.

"I know, vote." Shi Qian smiled bitterly.

Zhu Qing nodded, "There is something tricky in Shanhaiguan at present, you may be better than us, if it is done, I will have a reason to convince them." ”

"What's the matter?" Sai Shi asked.

"We'll talk about it tomorrow!" Zhu Qing hurriedly left a sentence, outside the window at the beginning of the month. Although he casually looked at the scenery outside the window, he keenly noticed that someone had infiltrated Shanhaiguan!
