Chapter 735: Mr. Cui's Sea Adventure (Part II)

Mr. Cui quietly came to the chatting Song Jun to eavesdrop, originally he just wanted to try his luck, but he didn't expect to let him really hear some useful news, because one of them Song Jun was bragging about how beautiful his outer room was, how he would serve men, etc., speaking of which, a small soldier can also afford to raise an outer room, which made Mr. Cui unexpected, and what he didn't expect was that from the words behind this soldier, it can be inferred that his outer room should be a native of Nanyang.

During this time, although Mr. Cui has been imprisoned in a prisoner of war camp, he also knows that it is not the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty that ambushes him under the city of Hangzhou, but the Southern Land Division that was born with the Sailor Division, this army often takes the Navy's warships to fight overseas, such as the previous Zhancheng and Jiaozhi were destroyed by them, so Mr. Cui heard the words of the Song Army above, and immediately concluded that he should be a member of the Southern Continental Division, and the other party was also very happy to mention that this time he was going to reunite with the native concubine, and listen to the meaning of his words, The native concubine was not taken home by him, but remained in the original tribe, so it can be concluded that their destination this time should be some island in the South Seas.

Mr. Cui was originally a person from the southern coastal area, and he was not ignorant of the situation overseas, at least he knew that since Zhao Yan went to Guangzhou, he led the southern sailors to lay a lot of territory overseas, although most of them are some islands, but it is said that these islands are rich in products, whether it is planting rice or looking for minerals, people can make a fortune quickly, Mr. Cui remembers that there are people in his hometown who ran overseas, and one of them actually found a gold mine, and now he just relies on digging gold mines, has become the richest man in his hometown.

Thinking of the lucky person who discovered the gold mine in his hometown, Mr. Cui was suddenly shocked. When he was an official, he was in charge of some local minerals, and he personally went to the mines to see them, and found that most of the mines were very dangerous, and the miners risked their lives every day to mine, and they didn't know when they might die in the mines. Therefore, the mortality rate of miners is extremely high, and few people are willing to take the initiative to become miners unless they are forced to do so.

"Is it necessary to transport us people overseas to work as miners?" Mr. Cui suddenly whispered in shock at this time, the reason why overseas islands are attractive is that in addition to fertile land, what remains is a variety of mineral deposits that are often discovered, whether it is gold mines, silver mines, or copper mines that can be directly used as money, they have a huge attraction for ordinary people. However, it is certainly not easy to mine these mines, and it is not easy to find miners alone, so his guess is still very reasonable.

Thinking of the above, Mr. Cui immediately became a little restless, if they were really escorted overseas to work as miners, with the situation of these prisoners of war, I am afraid that they would be even more oppressed. Coupled with the risks associated with the opening of the mine, it is estimated that whether they will survive for a year is a question?

"No wonder Song Jun was so merciful before. It is to treat our injuries and provide food and drink on time, it seems that they want to raise us stronger, so that we can have the strength to mine in the future! Mr. Cui said to himself again at this time, some things that he couldn't figure out before finally figured out at this time, it turned out that the Song army had not been at ease since they were captured. But it's normal to think about it, after all, people are soldiers and they are thieves, and Song Jun naturally doesn't need to be polite to the thieves who are caught.

Although the above is just Mr. Cui's own speculation, the more he thinks about it, the more he thinks it is the case. Even if he guessed wrong, but the Great Song Dynasty court must want to exile them overseas, even if they don't become miners, I'm afraid it will be other more dangerous things, thinking of this, Mr. Cui immediately felt a little restless, and finally couldn't help whispering to himself: "Is it really necessary to use that last life-saving method?" ”

However, as soon as Mr. Cui's own words fell, he quickly shook his head, and whispered with a bit of greed in his eyes: "No, until the last moment, you must not use that method to save your life, maybe things will take a turn for the better!" ”

In the following period, Mr. Cui took advantage of the opportunity to go to the deck every day to vent the wind, eavesdropping on the conversations of the soldiers on the upper deck as much as possible, and even took the initiative to approach some of the soldiers guarding them, hoping to get some words out of their mouths, but as he collected more and more information, he felt more and more chilled.

From the analysis of all kinds of intelligence he collected, the destination they went to this time is likely to be Luzon Island, which has been occupied by Zhao Yan's troops, I heard that it is famous for its abundance of gold, rice and precious timber, and these prisoners of war will definitely not be treated as ordinary immigrants, and in Mr. Cui's opinion, the most likely thing is to put them in the mine as miners, and then think of the tragic situation of those miners he has seen in the mine before, which makes Mr. Cui even more difficult to sleep in the following time. In the end, I couldn't sleep all night.

Just when Mr. Cui was worried about his next fate day and night, he didn't know that in the top cabin above his head, two young people were laughing and discussing, only to see the burly young man sitting by the window said helplessly: "Brother Xu, let's just arrest the Mr. Cui below and torture him, why do you bother so much?" ”

The person who spoke was Hu Yanping, and the elegant young man sitting opposite him was Xu Yuan, before Zhao Yan left Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures in a hurry, leaving them all there, this time they came back together, and helped Guo Kui on the way, and then they received Zhao Yan's order to prepare to pull these prisoners of war overseas, but at this time, Xu Yuan suddenly found a very interesting thing.

I saw that Xu Yuan heard Hu Yanping's words, but he smiled slightly: "Brother Hu Yan, why is he in such a hurry, anyway, we are idle along the way, and we finally encountered such an interesting thing, so naturally we have to play for a few more days, which can be regarded as relieving the loneliness on the journey." ”

Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Hu Yanping said helplessly: "I really don't understand what you people think, it's obviously a very simple thing, but you make it so complicated, if you had arrested him and tortured him as I said, maybe we have already found the treasure of Manichaeism." ”

"Haha, the treasures of Manichaeism are only known to Shi Fozi and Mr. Cui below, and now that Shi Fozi is dead, that batch of treasures will not run away on their own, so we don't have to worry, but this Mr. Cui below is a smart person, and it is estimated that he is about to be tortured and crazy by the news I deliberately released." Xu Yuan took a sip of tea and smiled again.

In fact, as early as the night of Shi Buddha's ambush, Xu Yuan and Hu Yanping learned about Mr. Cui through the mouths of some prisoners of war, and there was a Manichaean high-level in order to save their lives, and told them a secret, it turned out that Manichaeism had plotted to prepare a rebellion many years ago, and for this reason, the religious capitals in various places prepared a lot of property and weapons, and then Xu Yuan defeated other sect leaders to integrate Manichaeism, and gathered these belongings together, although the rebellion used a lot, but they were in chaos and looting everywhere, As a result, instead of decreasing, this amount of property has increased several times.

Because the amount of this batch of property is huge, it is inconvenient to bring it in the army, so after discussing with Mr. Cui, Shi Fozi decided to hide this batch of property, so that in case the rebellion fails, as long as they are still alive, they can also use this batch of treasures to have a chance to make a comeback in the future, but the location of the treasure is only known to Shi Fozi and Mr. Cui, and the other people involved in this matter are all inexplicably missing, and they know that they have been wiped out without asking.

After Hu Yanping and Xu Yuan knew about this, they immediately attached great importance to it, but Shi Fozi was dead, and the only person who knew the whereabouts of that batch of treasures was the mysterious Mr. Cui, but although this Mr. Cui was the most important strategist around Shi Fozi, he had always only given advice behind his back, and rarely showed up in person, not many people in the rebels knew him, and the other party disappeared when the rebels were surrounded, and many people speculated that he had died in the chaos.

However, Xu Yuan thought that it was not easy for a scheming person like Mr. Cui to die, so he found a few rebels who knew Mr. Cui, first looked at the corpses of all the rebels, but did not find anyone suspected of Mr. Cui, and then he let these people into the prisoner of war camp, and finally found Mr. Cui in the middle of the wounded barracks, but Xu Yuan did not alarm Mr. Cui at that time, but planned to have a good time with each other.

Originally, according to Hu Yanping's meaning, he directly arrested Mr. Cui and tortured him, but Xu Yuan considered that although Mr. Cui was an important strategist around Shi Fozi, he did not directly participate in the rebellion, but only took refuge in the other party's hands after Shi Fozi launched a rebellion, and he did not do any unforgivable bad things, and even when the rebels were preparing to kill those kidnapped refugees, Mr. Cui also dissuaded Shi Fozi, which was indirectly saved more than 10,000 lives, so for such people, If it was directly tortured, he was a little psychologically uncomfortable, and the road was too boring, so he decided to psychologically destroy the opponent's defense line and let the other party take the initiative to tell the location of the treasure.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Yuan secretly instructed his soldiers, as if he inadvertently revealed the purpose of their trip, and with Mr. Cui's wisdom, he must be able to guess something, in fact, these prisoners of war are indeed going to be sent to Nanyang to be miners, after all, Zhao Yan has always advocated waste utilization, and these rebels have made the Hangzhou area angry and resentful, so naturally they can't be easily let go, and so many people can't be killed at once, so exile to Nanyang as a miner is the best choice.
