Under the cover of night, the city of Nanjing is like a sleeping lion, which makes people feel awe. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoTang Ming and the ten of them hid on the edge of the jungle four miles away from the city, and the surrounding was so quiet that only some unknown insect calls remained.

The dog put down the binoculars and whispered dissatisfiedly: "This prince is still not coming, the agreed two watches will arrive in the next day, and now they are all in the early three watches, and the chief will not let us withdraw first, right?" ”

The title of this chief was specially asked by Tang Ming for the dog to be called so, and it was never appropriate to call him marshal, so Tang Ming thought of the future generations, and as a result, he had this title.

Tang Ming was resting with his back against a small tree, his eyes closed, and when he heard this, he shook his head and said, "Wait a minute, when the day is almost dawn, we will withdraw before the prince comes, and then find another way to save the father-in-law." ”

The breeze blew away the clouds in the sky, and the moon quietly revealed its true face, and the moonlight just shone on Tang Ming's face through the leaves of the jungle. There was a vaguely worried look, although Zhu Gaochi repeatedly promised that he could bring Zheng He and them out safely, but the second watch day had passed for a long time, and they were still nowhere to be seen.

Even Tang Ming couldn't help but be worried at the moment, the dog stared at Tang Ming for a moment, and then continued to pick up the telescope and look in the direction of Nanjing City. Suddenly, he vaguely seemed to see a dark shadow flickering under the city walls, but because the moonlight was obscured by the clouds, he could not see clearly in the darkness.

At first, I thought it was my own dazzle, but when the moonlight appeared again, the dog finally saw that it was three figures, looking around sneakily under the city wall, as if looking for something?

Although I can't see the faces of the three black shadows clearly, I don't know if it's Zhu Gaochi or them, but who else would be sneaky outside the city.

"Sir, there are three dark shadows on the other side of the south city gate, I don't know if it's the prince or them, looking around sneakily, I don't know what they're doing?" The dog hurriedly poked Tang Ming, who was still asleep with his eyes closed.

His eyes suddenly widened, Tang Ming turned over and snatched the dog's telescope, and looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, three black shadows were sneakily looking around under the city wall. The figures of Zheng He and Yao Guangxiao are not easy to recognize, but Zhu Gaochi's fat body is obviously easy to recognize.

Tang Ming just looked at it seriously for a moment and was sure that it was Zhu Gaochi and they were right, but since this guy came out, why didn't he hurry up and join him, and he was still walking around the city wall, looking around as he went. Although he was puzzled, after Tang Ming confirmed their identities, he still asked the dog to bring two people over to answer.

The speed of the dog was extremely fast, and he ran on the rugged field road as if he were walking on the ground, and Tang Ming soon saw him and Zhu Gaochi meeting them in the telescope. After only a moment's pause, the dog led them to this side, Tang Ming always carefully watched their surroundings, and did not find anything suspicious.

Zhu Gaochi was obviously too blessed, and he was out of breath when he ran less than four miles, not even as good as Yao Guangxiao, an old monk. After meeting the three of them, Tang Ming immediately led them around the jungle, where a carriage had already stopped. The three of them got into the carriage with Tang Ming, and the dogs they left behind to cover up the traces of the carriage by the way.

The carriage left the jungle and went up the concrete road to Suzhou, and under the constant whipping of the groom, the carriage disappeared into the night like lightning.

"The second watch will arrive on the next day, why is it so late?" Tang Ming glared viciously at Zhu Gaochi, who was still panting.

A trace of embarrassment instantly appeared on the latter's face, and he smiled: "Isn't this a place to meet you?" Although we arrived a little late, we were mainly delayed in looking for a place to meet you, and for this reason I almost circled the whole city of Nanjing. ”

Zhu Gaochi was able to do such an oolong thing, Tang Ming was also speechless, so he simply ignored him, turned around and greeted Zheng He and Yao Guangxiao.

Yao Guangxiao's face was calm and unwavering, and he didn't seem to have any dissatisfaction or emotions for his escape, but there was still a faint nostalgia in Zheng He's eyes, but he didn't know what he was nostalgic for.

"Tang boy, after getting on the boat, you will send your teacher to Jeju Island, Fang Xiaoru should be lonely if he lives there alone!" Yao Guangxiao closed his eyes and suddenly said such a request.

The two former gods made friends and wanted to live together as companions, and Tang Ming agreed to this small request without hesitation. Zheng He's mouth opened at this time, as if he had something to say, but suddenly closed his mouth again and was silent, Tang Ming glanced at him, and said with a smile: "My father-in-law also wants to follow my master to settle on Jeju Island?" ”

Zheng He thought for a moment, but shook his head and said: "Originally, I also wanted to escape from the world on your Jeju Island, but there are still many cronies in my fleet, and I am afraid that they will be offended by the emperor if they leave, so you kid has to help me rescue them." ”

Tang Ming still wanted to fool the past first, but now it seemed that he had no chance at all, so he had to tell the truth: "Father-in-law doesn't know, just two days ago, all the cronies in your fleet have been executed. Now there are three of your most trusted men on the way to the Ryukyus with your fleet, so there is nothing you can do about it! ”

"What?"

Zheng He was taken aback, he didn't expect the emperor to be ruthless to his subordinates so soon.

Seeing that Zheng He was getting more and more excited, and there seemed to be an uncontrollable precursor, Yao Guangxiao suddenly raised his hand and patted Zheng He's shoulder, and said lightly: "The cycle of cause and effect has its own destiny, and why should you pay too much attention to the ups and downs of life and death in the world." ”

Tang Ming was disdainful of Yao Guangxiao's Buddhist principles, but he didn't think that Zheng He seemed to be moved by him, Tie Qing's face gradually returned to normal, and after a while, he looked at Yao Guangxiao and said in a deep voice: "I don't want to revenge, but their family Sanbao must be arranged for them." And those who are unfilial, cleaning the portal is also a must! ”

Yao Guangxiao didn't say anything anymore, just nodded slightly at Zheng He, and then closed his eyes and read his Buddhist scriptures.

Tang Ming couldn't help but rejoice in his heart when Zheng He said that he was going to clean up the portal, this was the result he had been looking forward to. Now it seems that Zhu Di's killing spree has indeed achieved his goal, with Zheng He joining his fleet, Tang Ming can now sit back and relax, and maybe he can get some more warships for this, and the treasure ship may not be able to say.

The people in the carriage were silent, and that night the carriage galloped from Nanjing to Suzhou, and on a remote coast, the four of them boarded a converted merchant ship on a small boat and set sail for Jeju Island. (To be continued.) )
