Deng Tianbao held her child, came to her, looked at her steadily, she smiled, bowed and invited him into the house. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Deng Tianbao entered the house, put down the child, took off the rifle, rucksack and Japanese samurai sword on her waist, she took it and hung it on the wall, Deng Tianbao noticed that when her hand touched the Japanese katana, the brilliance in her eyes became a little dim, and her heart actually hurt a little.

"What's wrong?" Deng Tianbao asked, "If you don't like it, I won't bring it next time I come." ”

She shook her head and let out a soft sigh.

"What happened?" Deng Tianbao saw that the room was still the same as the last time he came, and he didn't see the male host, so he asked again.

She didn't answer, turned to look at him, and forced a smile to herself.

"He hasn't come back yet?" Deng Tianbao looked at her faint sad eyes and asked again.

She shook her head, probably knowing that she didn't understand Ryukyuan, so instead of speaking, she took a bamboo chopstick and gently scratched it on the table.

Deng Tianbao saw that she was marking Chinese characters, and immediately looked at it intently.

"He hasn't been back in a long time."

"I don't want him back."

"It's good for you to come."

Seeing that she understood Chinese, Deng Tianbao couldn't help but be very happy.

After coming to the Ryukyus, the biggest difficulty encountered by these big-headed soldiers was not the lack of adaptation, but the difficulty of speaking.

Although Ryukyu is influenced by Chinese culture, and the official language is Chinese, except for the upper class, most of the ordinary people of Ryukyu do not speak Chinese, but use Ryukyuan.

And the woman in front of him, although she couldn't speak Chinese, she knew Chinese and generally understood Chinese, which really surprised Deng Tianbao.

"Why don't you want him back?" Deng Tianbao also took a bamboo chopstick and scratched it on the table like her. The boy came to the table and watched curiously as the two adults wrote on the table with bamboo fast.

She didn't write again, but put down the bamboo chopsticks, got up silently, came to the inner room, and opened the door.

She turned to face Deng Tianbao, bowed again, stretched out her hand, and made a gesture of please.

Deng Tianbao came to the door, looked inside, and was startled by the things placed inside.

In one corner of the room, there sat a legless man in armor, looking at him with a hideous expression.

Deng Tianbao's first reaction was to touch the dagger tied between his legs.

This was his habit as a hunter in the woods, and his long years of hunting had given him an instinct to face danger, which was further strengthened after joining the Harbour Master's Navy.

She saw Deng Tianbao's somewhat nervous movements, and there was a faint smile in her eyes.

Deng Tianbao felt her gentle gaze, turned his head to look at her, and then looked at the "person" in the room, and when he found that it was just a piece of armor with a mask, his face turned red, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself, and straightened up.

It was a typical Japanese samurai armor.

Although he fought more than once with Japanese samurai from Satsuma in Taiwan, he had never seen this kind of armor.

What surprised him even more was that next to the armor, there was a black Japanese police uniform.

Deng Tianbao immediately understood why she didn't want her husband to come back.

Her husband is supposed to be a Japanese police officer (Japan has a police system since the Meiji Restoration, and the police are generally filled by samurai).

And the reason why the Japanese policeman has not returned home for so many days is probably that he was killed when the naval forces of the ship master captured Shuri Castle and swept the Japanese police station and police station.

Deng Tianbao turned his head to look at her, there was no sadness on her face, and there was even a hint of relief.

Obviously, she should have been forced to marry the Japanese policeman.

And she knows Chinese characters, obviously she should be from a famous local family.

"May I ask your name?" Deng Tianbao asked.

Instead of speaking, she took his hand and wrote softly.

What she wrote was the three Chinese characters "Lin Shiying".

"Your surname is Lin?" Thinking that this Ryukyu woman actually had the same surname as the Futailin Lord who he respected the most, Deng Tianbao's heart felt a little more affection for her.

Lin Shiying looked at Deng Tianbao, his eyes were filled with a happy smile.

"By the way, that's what I brought you." Deng Tianbao said, walked to the wall, took his rucksack and opened it, took out the prey and some bread he was hunting in it, and handed it to Lin Shiying.

Lin Shiying took the prey's bread, stared at Deng Tianbao, and showed a grateful smile, at this time the boy ran over, she gently tore off a piece of bread, put it in the child's hand, the child's face was full of happy smiles, and he hurriedly put the bread into his mouth, and ran away with his feet.

Lin Shiying sent the prey and bread into the kitchen, came to the wardrobe by the wall, opened the cabinet door, took out a neat stack of clothes that had been washed clean, and sent them to Deng Tianbao's front.

Seeing that the damaged parts of the clothes had been sewn up, and some places were even embroidered with flower patterns, Deng Tianbao couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

At this time, he couldn't help but recall the scene when the two first met.

I remember that it was a slightly hazy day, above the reckless primeval forest, containing a faint layer of smoke and water, from time to time a few white birds flew by, screamed a few times, and flew away. The climate here, since the beginning of October, has always been so hazy and hazy, making people's hearts burn. Deng Tianbao carried a long musket alone, standing alone on the high mountain mausoleum, and looking out of thin air alone.

When he was free, the hunter's instinct surrounded him again, and he couldn't help but want to come to the mountains and forests here to hunt some game.

After the restoration of the Ryukyus, the Funashi Navy stationed at Shurijo Castle and other key points in the Ryukyus. Since the Japanese had been cleared, the Chinese shipmasters and sailors stationed there had a rare time to spare, and the officers were considerate of the labor of their subordinates.

Since the Ryukyu Kingdom was changed to the Ryukyu Domain by the Japanese government, the inhabitants of these islands became de facto slaves of the Japanese, who plundered the area on a large scale, causing the economy to plummet and the common people to the point of impoverishment to the point that sleeping on muddy floors became a habit. When the shipmaster and navy arrived here, they found it very difficult to eat even a bite of meat if they did not rely on transport ships to transport supplies from the Chinese mainland.

In order to solve the problem of eating meat for himself and his colleagues, Deng Tianbao, who was originally a hunter, began to return to his old business in his spare time.

Although as a naval officer, he was issued with a new French Chasebo rifle and bullets, but these must have been public weapons and could not be wasted, and they were used for hunting, an old long-barreled musket used by the Ryukyu army that had been used by the Ryukyu army from the Japanese police station.

Deng Tianbao raised his hand and stared at it for a long time, then put down his hand and slowly walked down from the lonely and cold mountain peak. When he is alone, he always likes to stand on a high place and look at the sea and sky world beyond the sky.

He knew that at this time, if it weren't for the blessing of Torin Yizhe, he would not have been able to get out of his own narrow world.

He slowly walked towards the forest sea, the gray cloth faintly dissolved into the dark green sea, and in the blink of an eye, only the boundless green sea made a deep whistling sound in the cold air.

Unlike the mountains, the woods below are much warmer, and although the air is still damp and cold, the occasional sunny time feels like spring has arrived. Walking down the mossy slope along the deep forest, Deng Tianbao put down the musket in his hand along with the prey bag, and looked at the sky with a frown. At this moment, the sky is always gloomy and the sun cannot be seen, and the moisture mixed with the cold air unique to winter hits the face, and the tide is cold and cold, which is extremely uncomfortable. Deng Tianbao wiped his cold cheeks with a silk scarf, and after a while, his cheeks became much warmer. When it comes to this gloomy winter climate, Deng Tianbao prefers the sunny spring in Tainan, which is full of fresh morning air. Deng Tianbao always felt that the weather was actually people's mood, and the gloomy weather was his current extremely unhappy and depressed mood. He breathed a sigh of relief in the dreak, and once again cast the hunter's gaze into the verdant distance.

There's also a nice nest of prey with green shrubs. The deep trees above covered the sky and the sun like an umbrella on the bushes, the dark and blue barrel of the spear in the shadows slowly stretched out among the thorny weeds and bushes, and the front sight quietly searched and moved in the darkness everywhere, and gradually, the front sight stopped moving, stopped, and stared at it motionlessly. Suddenly, the trigger was pulled and there was a "bang", and a crisp gunfire rang out in the mountains and forests. In the distance, a reddish pheasant was shot and fell into the green bushes ahead. Deng Tianbao stood up and walked over with a gun. He, the hunter of the harvest, reached out and picked up his prey, looked left and right, and contentedly tossed it into the canvas prey bag. Counting this pheasant, this is Deng Tianbao's third prey today, there are already two wild hares in the canvas prey bag, both of which were single-handedly shot this morning, and they are still warm to touch. After packing up the prey, Deng Tianbao looked up, it was only half of the morning, it was still early before dark, he didn't plan to call it a day early and go back, even if he went back early, the station was very cold, and there was no one to talk to and chat with. It's hard to hunt once, and walking and running more is also a way to relax. Deng Tianbao picked up the musket again and began to wander around the deep forest stream again.

Since the occupation of Shuri by the naval forces of the shipmaster, the Japanese military and police in the city were either killed or confined to them, and the Japanese merchants and civilians in the city all clamped their tails and behaved honestly in the face of these god-like Chinese soldiers, and no one dared to make trouble. There are fewer tasks to maintain law and order with the ship's navy patrol, and everyone is happy to be idle in Shurijo Castle. Today, it was Deng Tianbao's turn to rest, and when he was itching, he walked out with a musket and wandered around the forest. I didn't think that the prey would be caught as soon as I raised my hand, and in less than a morning, the rucksack behind me was almost full.

At this moment, Deng Tianbao quietly hid himself behind a bush of branches and leaves, the tender green branches and leaves were reflected on Deng Tianbao's face, and under the slender black eyebrows, his eyes flashed, and a layer of black sea retreated, leaving only the glow of the deep water. He was tall and slender, wearing a well-fitting set of gray canvas hunting pants, a pair of deerskin boots on his feet, and a white sweat towel delicately wrapped around his neck to prevent his face from being scratched by tree branches.

The branches and leaves suddenly moved, and Deng Tianbao quickly stood up, but it turned out to be a wild lynx sweeping through the forest, a gust of wind. But at the same time, a beautiful pheasant came into the sight of the crosshairs: what a beautiful pheasant! In front of the crosshairs, it was proudly spreading its wings, and it was so proud. The pheasant did not know that he was now in a very dangerous situation. Just as it had just gotten up in the morning and walked out of the bedroom, now it was lazily trying to spread its red and green wings to show off its male beauty and pride, and like the first yawn of the morning, it puffed out its chest and took a big breath and then opened its mouth comfortably to exhale. Deng Tianbao stared at it intently, he had never seen such a beautiful and shockingly beautiful pheasant! Just as he hesitated to pull the trigger, the pheasant flew away with its wings "poof".

Deng Tianbao sighed and put down the gun, he was really a little reluctant to hit it, it was really a wild pheasant that couldn't be more beautiful! He had never seen such a beautiful pheasant. After a while, he found himself a little tired, and finally put away his shotgun and carried the prey bag.

In the gloomy forest, a group of people slowly walked down the mountain road in the distance, and when they got closer, they saw that they were five Ryukyu women.

The women were shocked at first when they found him, but when they saw that it was a Chinese with braided hair, the look of surprise on their faces disappeared slightly.

At this time, Deng Tianbao's eyes were completely attracted by the young woman among them.

Like a man who walks down from the painting of the most beautiful lady; She is different from ordinary Ryukyu women, her eyes are big and bright, and it seems that there are rippling water in her eyes, as if she is silently talking about something all the time; The resolute and straight nose bridge has both the beauty of a woman and the heroism of a man; The slightly thin and soft cherry lips show an almost transparent ruby red, which is delicate at any time as if it can make people intoxicated at a glance; A long black hair as soft as water poured down like a waterfall, just right to spread on the slightly shaved shoulders. Presumably it is a long-term exercise, so that her figure has an overall upward uprightness, just the right **** buttocks, which is the most suitable model for a well-developed woman of appropriate age; With long legs and a thin waist, with a slender figure, it is really fat if you increase one point, and thin if you lose one point.

Even if her face was tired and servant, she could still see her petite face and delicate features, with a strange and dazzling beauty; The delicate and white skin like curd, because of the sunshine, is like a transparent crystal-colored Xinjiang mare's milk grape, so crystal clear that people can't bear to look at it, for fear that the gaze will be implemented and her face will be hurt.

Deng Tianbao has seen a lot of beauties - such as Mrs. Lin Futai who came to ****, although the woman in front of him is not as beautiful, but the deepest impression on him is that there is a kind of quiet beauty between her eyebrows that surpasses her age, the faint willow eyebrows are clearly and carefully modified, the long eyelashes flicker like two small brushes, and the bright pair of beautiful big eyes that make people feel dazzling to palpitations, unusually smart and energetic.

The moment she looked at Deng Tianbao, Deng Tianbao was like a lightning strike, and he stood on the spot, unable to make a sound.

Deng Tianbao couldn't remember how he looked lost and depressed, and followed her to her home. It wasn't until he saw her child that he realized his gaffe.

The woman was not afraid of his arrival, she seemed to have guessed Deng Tianbao's identity (he had a gun in his hand and a braid, he must be a shipmaster and sailor), and when she saw that Deng Tianbao's clothes were cut by branches in the forest, she took out clean clothes and gave them to Deng Tianbao and changed the clothes on his body.

From that day on, Deng Tianbao often went to her house, helped her repair the house, opened up the garden, and often brought some game meat to her, and she often left him at home to eat and help him sew and change clothes.

Because of the long-term hunting and medical practice with his father, Deng Tianbao's life circle is small, although he has reached the age of marriage, but he has no concept of marrying a wife and having children, and after joining the shipmaster and navy, the marriage is all handed over to his father (the old father is not less troubled by this). But since he met her, he unknowingly had the idea of a family.

Since China helped the Ryukyus to restore the country, the whole country of the Ryukyus was grateful for China's great virtues, and they treated the naval soldiers stationed in Shuri Castle very favorably, and the nobles and scholars often sent wine, food, food and grass, and the common people lived in poverty and could not be entertained, so men came to help the Chinese army build barracks and work, and women helped the Chinese soldiers to sew and mend their clothes, and regularly came to change and wash. After a long time, the feelings were secretly born, and many of the shipmasters and sailors had private engagements with local women, so that some of the big-headed soldiers who were still playing singles deliberately tore their clothes and gave them to the Ryukyu women to sew and mend, and by the way, they helped others to repair their houses, collect some firewood, and give some beef and bread and other foods to show their friendship.

Oh, yes! Since many of his comrades-in-arms plan to settle here, why don't they do it?

"A-Ying." Deng Tianbao took the clothes and called softly.

Lin Shiying felt Deng Tianbao's fiery gaze at her, her face turned red, and she turned around to leave in a little panic, Deng Tianbao impulsively stepped forward and grabbed her arm.

"A-Ying, where are you going? Stay with me. Deng Tianbao said impulsively.

Lin Shiying smiled, pointed to the kitchen, and then pointed to the sky outside, Deng Tianbao understood what she meant, smiled embarrassedly, and let go of her.

Lin Shiying invited Deng Tianbao to sit down at the table, made him a cup of hot tea, and then got up and went to the kitchen. After a while, as the fire rose, bursts of meat fragrance wafted out.
