The wolf, whose nature is arguably the most representative of animals. Lying on the salary and tasting the courage, the wolves are united, self-aware, sailing along the river, advancing and retreating together, the same as the inside and the outside, advocating freedom and loyalty!

After Tang Ming threw the two roast rabbits to Xiaobai, he saw that he ignored them, which was very different from his usual gobbling up, so he had no choice but to leave ruthlessly. But Xiaobai followed closely behind, Tang Ming took a step and he followed a step, he stopped and stopped, after a few minutes of stalemate, someone really couldn't stand it.

"Xiaobai, are you going to come with me? Yes, I did say that our two brothers will have blessings and hardships in the future, and will never be separated! But the outside world is really not suitable for you to live, look, here you are the king, the unique wolf king, no human will threaten your life. ”

"But on the outside, it's different, people's hearts are sinister and there is the possibility of war at any time, and danger is everywhere. It's good to stay here and enjoy the blessings, why follow me to wander outside? ”

"Woo......."

Xiao Bai seemed to understand Tang Ming's words, and suddenly raised his wolf head and let out a wolf howl, and after a while, a group of wolves of all sizes rushed over, and it seemed that the entire wolf den could be dispatched.

The two big bad wolves, who were also familiar with Tang Ming, stepped forward and sat in front of Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai whispered again, and the two gray wolves also followed from time to time. What does it seem to be communicating?

In the end, it seemed that Xiao Bai was victorious, and he looked up at the wolf head to inspect the wolves, and then turned around and ran to Tang Ming's side, rubbing his head against his thighs constantly. Looking at the wolves, he also understood Xiaobai's determination, since the brother didn't even want to be the wolf king, and he was not afraid of danger to follow him, then what else did he have to say?

"Good brother!" Tang Ming squatted down, hugging Xiaobai, there seemed to be tears flashing in the corners of his eyes.

The two big bad wolves didn't know when, with more than a dozen slightly smaller brothers, each holding a fat rabbit in their mouths, all of them were placed in front of Tang Ming, and after glancing at Xiaobai again, the whole wolf pack seemed to have been discussed, and at the same time let out a wolf howl.

Its sound resounded throughout the plain, and in an instant, the whole plain chickens and dogs jumped, and all the animals fled as if they were playing for their lives, and its wolf power on the plain could be seen in its supremacy.

The wolf's howl gradually faded away, and the wolves also returned to the wolf's den, leaving Tang Ming and Xiaobai, who tied up a dozen rabbits as farewell gifts with ropes and put them on Xiaobai's back, and Tang Ming then set off and walked down the cliff.

The sun was hanging overhead, and there was still a long time before evening, and Tang Ming saw that the boatman was still transporting fresh water diligently, and he had no time to take care of himself. Looking at the dozen or so rabbits on Xiaobai's back, Tang Ming thought that he should take advantage of the time to roast all the rabbits, and then take the opportunity to cook some sea salt in case of emergency.

Slaughtering, processing and baking are already too familiar to be more familiar, Tang Ming didn't need a stick of incense to get it all done, sprinkled some pepper collected on the island, and suddenly bursts of aroma wafted out. The boatman who passed by in the distance swallowed his saliva and kept looking here.

"Hahaha, brother, what kind of meat are you roasting, and it has such a fragrance?" The captain of the boatman smelled the fragrance and came laughing from afar.

Tang Ming hurriedly got up to greet him, and by the way, he handed over half of the rabbit that had been roasted and said implicitly: "Presumably, my brother must be hungry, so he will be interested in this mountain and wild thing, come and come, if you don't dislike it, taste it first!" ”

The big man was already salivating when he smelled the fragrance, and he would be polite to Tang Ming, and without saying a word, he would take the rabbit meat and get up. Xiaobai seemed to regard Tang Ming's roasted rabbit meat as his property, and at this moment, seeing the big man in front of him, he couldn't help but let out a low sound of unwillingness.

"Xiaobai is rude!"

Tang Ming snorted coldly, and after letting Xiao Bai calm down, he turned around and faced the big man embarrassedly and said humbly: "Xiao Bai has never seen a living person, please bear with me if I am rude!" Younger brother Tang Ming hasn't asked his eldest brother for your surname? ”

"Woo, woo!" Dahan had already been attracted by the delicious taste in his mouth, and he had already stuffed half a rabbit into his stomach while speaking, and gave Tang Ming a thumbs up again and again, and his praise was undoubtedly revealed.

"Don't be expensive, my brother, my name is Wang Datie, I am a rough man who begs for a life at sea, and he has a little experience in navigation before he was favored by Gonggong Zheng and accepted as an errand under his banner. Now, the more than 100 brothers who are busy are all my men! Wang Tie's eyes showed a look of pride, and his chest was raised a lot unconsciously.

The small pot on the fire had been boiled dry, and only some granular crystals remained, Tang Ming put another pan on the shelf, poured the filtered seawater and let it continue to burn.

After finishing all this, Tang Ming pulled Wang Datie to sit aside, handed over half a hare again, and said leisurely: "Brother Wang, the younger brother has been wandering outside for a long time, and I don't know how many years I have. What year and month is it? ”

"In the second year of Yongle, in mid-February, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, had just ascended the throne!" Wang Datie's mind was completely only on the half of the roast rabbit, and he was hesitating whether to eat it or not, and after hesitating and struggling, he still put it away beside him.

Tang Ming was slightly stunned, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the period of Zhu Di's reign was the most powerful time in the entire history of the Ming Dynasty. As long as you don't go to the border of the Ming Dynasty, you can still avoid the war and make a good living in Beijing, and it shouldn't be a problem to spend this life worry-free?

Tang Ming doesn't have any ambitions, and he doesn't want anything to change his life, fame and fortune. He just wanted to make some money, marry a virtuous beautiful girl, and organize a family in the Ming Dynasty again to make up for the regrets he had for his family in later generations.

Xiao Bai's eyes stared at the half of the hare beside Wang Datie, it didn't understand why Tang Ming gave away another half, shouldn't such a delicacy be kept for himself to enjoy slowly? The dissatisfaction became active again, and he wanted to rush over to grab something but was afraid of Tang Ming's scolding, so he had no choice but to vent his anger on the grass at the bottom of his feet. The sharp wolf claws were scraping back and forth, making the ground dusty!

picked up half a roast rabbit and stuffed it into Xiaobai's mouth to comfort Xiaobai who was venting. Tang Ming added two dry firewood to the fire, and continued to ask Wang Datie for advice: "Brother Wang, where is this island we are on now, is it the land of my Daming ****?" ”

Having never eaten such a delicious delicacy, Wang Datie finally tore off a rabbit leg greedily and ate it, and when he heard Tang Ming's question, he replied without much thought: "This is the Yellow Sea, an uninhabited desert island relatively close to North Korea, which we only discovered not long ago." In two days' time, we will reach the waters of North Korea, and if all goes well, we will be able to reach the port of Tianjin in a few days, and our mission for this trial voyage will be completed. ”

Tang Ming suddenly realized at this time that it was 1402, and there were still three years to go before Zheng He went to the West in 1405, and now this fleet should have only just been organized, and it was still in the emerging stage, and Ming Chengzu should still be vigorously rectifying the corrupt officials in the country at this moment.

The two chatted like this until the evening, and Tang Ming could be regarded as having a great understanding of the world he was in, so he would not be ignorant. As the sun set over the mountain, Tang Ming followed Wang Datie on a big boat. See that it is full of wooden barrels filled with fresh water, food, and some household items.

Tang Ming immediately understood that the ship that Wang Datie was in charge of should belong to the logistics supply. Wang Datie ate Tang Ming's roast rabbit and talked for an afternoon, and the relationship between them became much closer. Wang Datie is also a straightforward character, and he doesn't have any fancy intestines.

He no longer had any suspicions about Tang Ming, who he had just met, and took care of him very much, and even led him to his residence and let him sleep in a cubicle with him. After explaining that Tang Ming was convenient, he left in a hurry, the fleet was ready to anchor, and he, the captain, had to take command.

Wang Datie's bedroom is not very spacey, two large wooden planks that can only accommodate one person lie flat on both sides of the door, and directly opposite the door is a round window the size of a human head, and a trace of the afterglow of the setting sun shines in, lighting up the dark cubicle. Tang Ming put down his backpack on the wooden board without a bed quilt, which had never left him.

drove Xiaobai to the door first, and then went back to tidy up his things. In fact, there was nothing to tidy up, the bedding itself was not at all, except for a tattered tent, only a sleeping bag. There are also those daily necessities in the backpack, and the hare that was roasted in the afternoon has been taken to the storage room by Wang Datie.

"Hey, hey......." The sound of the trumpet sounded, and the ship began to sway gently.

Tang Ming poked his head out of the window, only to see that the fleet was slowly turning around, gradually leaving the island where he had stayed for a while. People are emotional animals, no matter how difficult a place to stay for a period of time, they will inexplicably have feelings, when they suddenly want to leave, there will always be a trace of reluctant emotions in their hearts.

The sky full of stars is reflected in the mirror-like sea, and there is no distinction between heaven and earth, and more than 100 fleets of large and small ships seem to be floating in the universe, making people lose themselves in this dreamlike beauty.

The mainsail was slowly raised to the shouts of the sailors, and the flotilla began to move forward with the help of the wind, and the busy sailors were only now at ease. The fleet, which had been shouting just now, gradually calmed down, Wang Datie came over with a futon in his arms, put it on Tang Ming's plank bed casually, and laughed.

"Brother Tang, are you still used to taking a boat? Come and come and have a drink with my brother! Wang Datie suddenly took out a small pot of wine from his body, placed it on the only small stool in the bedroom, and took out a hare that Tang Ming had roasted.

Xiao Bai, who was lying under the boat, shrugged a big head, listlessly looked at the roast rabbit that Wang Datie took out, without the anger of the morning, it could no longer take care of the delicious roast rabbit, Xiao Bai, who had never been on the boat, began to feel uncomfortable, although the stomach had not yet reached the point of turning over the river and the sea, but now there was no appetite at all.

Tang Ming is better than obeying his fate, although he also feels a little uncomfortable at the moment, but it is still within the acceptable range, there is such an opportunity to continue to ask Wang Datie about the situation in this era, of course he doesn't want to miss it!

As the night deepened, the fleet was still moving towards the original goal, Wang Datie was also drunk and fell asleep on the floor, Tang Ming was no exception, with a trace of sparkling saliva at the corner ......of his mouth, and he was dreaming peacefully.
