Chapter 217: Haikou VII

The sea in the middle of the night, all around is eternal silence and darkness.

Drifting on the ocean, Zhang Mu looked at the moon in the sky and felt a lot of emotion.

Looking back in the direction of his hometown, I couldn't help but think that China has been at the forefront of the world for thousands of years.

The holy world of the Song and Tang Dynasties, all countries come to the dynasty, how majestic?

However, just over 300 years later, this country, which once dominated the world for centuries, was beaten by various countries.

In fact, not only China, but also the mighty Egyptian, Indian, and Arab empires were also beaten at that time.

The reason for this is that it did not catch up with the Age of Discovery.

If China had been involved in the Age of Discovery, what would history have looked like?

Zhang Mu couldn't help but start to be obscene.

It's just that it seems very difficult to solve this problem at the moment.

Fortunately, this is only the early Ming Dynasty, and the matter of sealing and banning the sea has not yet been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but there is still a chance to reverse it.

However, to do this, Zhang Mu knew that it would not be easy.

Now he is just a scum with only five combat strength, and he has no influence on the imperial court.

The emperor would never listen to a thirteen-year-old child and immediately abolish the national policy he had formulated.

However, Zhang Mu felt that he was still young, and Zhu Yuanzhang was already old.

In the future, I went to Nanjing, and I started to do this little by little, even if he is a thousand-mile dam, as long as he has the spirit of Yugong moving mountains, dig a little today, dig a little tomorrow, and he can't be defeated.

If it is smooth sailing in the future and can become the core figure in Nanjing, it is not impossible for this matter to be done.

As for what history will become after changing history, Zhang Mucai is indifferent, he has already died once, and it is a big deal to die again. No loss anyway.

At this time, two soldiers escorted the old butler to the dock.

Zhang Mu heard the footsteps behind him, turned around and glanced at it, and said with a cold smile: "Have you thought about it clearly?" ”

"The old man really can't trust you, but it's not the worst. If you can let the Wen family live two more people, the old man is willing to go with you. But well, the people we trade with are pirates. I don't care if you live or die. The old housekeeper didn't look at Zhang Mu and said.

Zhang Mu turned around and said, "Okay, you go and choose someone." We'll be right away. ”

Present. The soldiers took the old butler and went out.

Zhang Mu knew that the old housekeeper might not really help him, but it didn't matter, a person like the old housekeeper was just an ant in his hands, and he couldn't fight with this kind of muddy person.

After a while, Li Yunchang prepared to come out of a big ship, and then came to Zhang Mu and said, "Muzhi, you can think about it again." ”

"Forget it. Nothing to think about. This time, either Wang Ming will die, or I will die. Zhang Mu smiled bitterly.

"Well, I've already picked them out for you. Zhao Wu, they have followed me for many years, and they have followed you. I'm also relieved. Li Yunchang said.

"If I don't come back by dawn, you won't have to wait for me." Zhang Mu said with a smile.

Li Yunchang was stunned for a moment, nodded slowly, and said, "Understood." ”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't say much.

After some preparation. After Zhang Mu changed boats, he set off in the direction of Nanlu Mountain.

The ship allocated to Zhang Mu had more than thirty people. Among them, the old housekeeper of the Wen family also brought three men, and the rest were Li Yunchang's henchmen.

The old butler was in a state of limbo, his long gray hair was scattered, and there were a few bruises on his face, and he looked very embarrassed.

The three men who followed the old butler were no better than there.

It was very hot in the cabin, so Zhang Mu simply stood on the deck shirtless, listening to the ups and downs of the waves accompanied by the sea breeze, which was also comfortable.

It's just that I'm a little uneasy in my heart, and I haven't been able to close my eyes.

The sailors on the ship are the elite of the Taizhou sailors, and the old housekeeper is familiar with the path, and under his guidance, after about two hours, he can already faintly see Nanlu Mountain.

Nanlushan is an isolated island and is very small.

As far as the eye can see, it is pitch black.

Zhang Mu was a little nervous, holding the railing tightly and asking, "This is Nanlu Mountain?" What about the pirates you traded? ”

"What's the hurry?" The old butler said coldly, and then shouted, "Lean in." ”

As the ship got closer and closer, I could almost see the whole view of Nanlu Mountain.

Sure enough, on the other side of Nanlu Mountain, I faintly saw some firelight, but on the dark sea, I thought the stars were reflected in the sea.

Zhang Mu carefully identified that the firelight came from the boat, and there were about seven or eight large ships docked in Nanlu Mountain, looking at it from a distance, and thought it was a part of Nanlu Mountain.

"You'll come aboard with me in a moment." Zhang Mu threw down a sentence, then turned around and said, "Put down the sampan." ”

The sailors were busy for a while, and Zhang Mu followed the old housekeeper off the boat.

Zhao Wu held the old housekeeper hostage, and after getting off the boat, Zhang Mu asked, "Are you all like this?" ”

"Speak quickly!" Zhao Wu drank.

"Don't worry, our big ship, the Japanese have already discovered it. Just wait here. The old butler said disdainfully.

Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, a few torches were faintly visible in the distance.

"The Woko are coming." Zhao Wu said nervously.

"Don't be nervous." Zhang Mu smiled faintly.

Sure enough, when the torches got closer, they heard someone shouting, "It's a friend of the Wen family on the other side?" ”

"Is it a bald horse?" The old butler replied.

Zhang Mu was quite surprised, listening to the bald man opposite, there was no smell of widows, and he was clearly a Han man.

Sure enough, out of the forest came a dark-skinned, burly strong man, the strong man was definitely more than one meter eight tall, strong, when he appeared in front of He Zhang Mu, it was like an iron tower.

However, this strong man's hairstyle is Mediterranean, the hair in the center is all gone, and there is a circle of long washed hair around, and there is no bun, just draped behind him, which looks very funny.

He was dressed in a short dress, opened his arms, and when he saw the old butler, he laughed and said, "Why are you an old ghost?" What about your young master? ”

Zhang Mu smiled when he saw him, the teeth in his mouth were filthy, and half of his front teeth were missing, and he was able to get rid of the virtues of a foreign medieval sailor.

"The young master of our family is not feeling well when he comes out this time, so he won't sleep on the big boat behind. I'll take a look first, I'm afraid I will encounter what happened last time. The old butler laughed.

"Those people from the Nansha Gang have been cleaned up by me. Rest assured, that will never happen again. The bald man patted his chest and said.

"That's the best, I scared the soul of the little old man last time." The old butler said with palpitations.

"Don't be stunned here, let's go, go to our side and see the goods. You should go early and come back early, I have to leave early, I've been very busy lately. The bald man laughed. (To be continued......)
