Chapter 69: The Mysterious Organization
Five days ago, the city of Malacca. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
There is a Sanbao Street in the city, which is a street built in ancient times and is very well preserved. The streets are tortuous and narrow, the houses are jagged and diverse, and the walls of many houses are inlaid with beautifully patterned tiles, Ruishi door buckles, inlaid with dragons and phoenixes, showing pure and typical Chinese style architecture everywhere.
It's a Chinese street!
At the end of this street, an ancient temple in pure Chinese style stands - built in honor of Zheng He.
According to local legend in Malacca, all the materials used to build the temple were brought from China, even if it was brick by brick!
The temple is surrounded by hundred-year-old trees, which are shaded by trees, which is very cool and quiet. The gate of the quaint temple is painted with two generals wearing battle robes and holding swords and axes, majestic and heroic. On both sides of the doorpost is a couplet: "Hundreds of years ago, there were traces of victory, and the heroic spirits were displayed in the four directions."
In the center of the temple is a statue of Zheng He dressed with a sword. There is also a black lacquer plaque of "Zheng He Sanbaogong" hanging on it; There are many statues of civil and military generals lined up on both sides, expressing the praise and nostalgia of later generations for Zheng He.
Originally, this temple was full of incense, but now the gate is closed and no one lives. The entire temple complex, which covers an extensive area, is very quiet. Only occasionally a few crisp birdsong sounded on the towering ancient trees, and it still seemed to be a little vibrant.
But in reality, there is not really no one in this temple!
Because in the main hall of the Sanbao Temple, under the huge statue of Zheng He with a sword, there were eleven people sitting upright. A long wooden table flanked by five people, old and young, tall and short, dressed in different costumes. Some people seem to be high-ranking officials and nobles, while others are tattered and tattered like beggars; There are twelve or thirteen-year-old cute Lori, and there are also graceful ladies...... Of course, if there is anything they have in common, it is that their appearance is very obviously Chinese!
Such a group of people gathered together as if they were in a meeting, which seemed very abrupt and weird, giving people a strong sense of disobedience.
And at the front of the long table, just below the statue of Zheng He, sat a young man wearing a jade grimace mask.
This person was dressed in a azure Hanfu, with a white and moist jade pendant like mutton fat hanging from his waist, as well as a long, narrow and typical ancient Chinese sword. The jade mask on his face obscured his face tightly, revealing only a pair of eyesβthe eyes were moist, similar to jade. But I don't know why, but I always feel that there is a kind of arrogance that defies everything.
Hanfu, tied hair, jade, sword. This is very typical of the ancient Chinese scholar class and scholars!
Humble gentleman, gentle as jade. Empty-eyed, arrogant and uninhibited. The two diametrically opposed temperaments blend very well on the body of this strange jade mask man.
He glanced around, and a clear voice came from behind the jade mask: "Guys, is there anything worth talking about lately?" β
The people sitting around the long table began to whisper to each other.
The man who wore the jade mask and looked like a leader did not speak, just waited for them. After a long while, the man who was sitting in the second seat on the left side of the long table and looked like a big businessman stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Xu Gongzi, there haven't been much worth saying in Malacca City recently. Recently, we have made great efforts to clean up some local natives and tribes who are dissatisfied with the Chinese, and the life of the Chinese people is much better. It's just the outside world, but there's a big thing. The Kingdom of China, which was established in the southern part of the Indian Peninsula, recently launched an expedition to Southeast Asia with the military strength of most of the country. One of the corps had already started in Banda Aceh in northwestern Indonesia and then began to advance towards the entire Indonesian mainland. And the other group is coming to Malacca, and their goal seems to be to occupy this place and thus control the entire Straits of Malacca! β
"Occupy the city of Malacca and control the entire Straits of Malacca...... Hehe, the ambition is not small. The jade masked man chuckled lowly, then muttered to himself.
On the fourth position on the right side of the long table, a big man in tattered clothes, but muscular and bearded, stretched out his hand and slammed the tabletop, and his voice was like Hong Zhong Dalu: "**** grandma's!" It's really exciting. I didn't expect that an overseas Chinese country far away from Shenzhou would still have such strength and courage. It's really rare. If there had been such an overseas Chinese country more than 100 years ago, we would not have ......."
Before he could speak, he noticed that the jade masked man in front of him was staring at him coldly. Only then did he realize that he had lost his words, so he quickly closed his mouth.
At this moment, a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, who was in the first position on the left side of the long table, and was also closest to the jade mask man, spoke.
She has a delicate and beautiful face, and a pair of big eyes are dripping and straight, looking eccentric. Her jet-black and silky hair was so long that it hung down to her waist. has already shown that the future will inevitably be a "demon-level" beauty that will captivate the country and the city. At this time, she drew circles on the table with her hands, and pouted, "I know this Huaxia Divine Kingdom." I heard that the organization that actually rules is called the Dragon God Sect, and the sect leader seems to be called the Dragon God. Hmph, pretending to be a ghost, this girl doesn't like it very much. β
Sitting opposite her, the Taoist priest in the first position on the right side of the long table was dressed as a calm middle-aged man who stroked his beard and muttered, "Miss Tu's words are wrong. This Dragon God Sect ...... It's amazing! Poor Dao heard that they had already laid down a large area in several provinces in the southern part of Shenzhou, including Guangdong. Together with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it posed a great threat to the Manchu Qing and divided the Qing Empire into three states. If you slowly figure it out, you may not be able to directly restore my Han family in Shenzhou! Later, he suddenly fled for unknown reasons, led his forces across the sea to the Indian Peninsula, and moved some people out one after another. In any case, this Dragon God Sect has made great contributions to Huaxia and our Han nation! β
The beautiful little Lori was unconvinced and pouted: "Hmph! Anyway, this girl doesn't like the title of dragon god very much. It's the end of the law era, who can be so powerful? Mortals are getting more and more powerful, and they have created all kinds of terrible weapons. Even if those dozen or so steel heavy cannons are bombarded indiscriminately, how many of us here will survive? β
The old Taoist priest and others knew that this little girl was very unhappy with the title of "Dragon God", so she was so angry. I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly. (To be continued.) )
