This beggar was extremely dirty and smelly, his clothes were ragged and he couldn't see his original color, and his hair had already mixed with mud, so he suddenly rushed in, startling Han Qi and hurriedly took two steps back, Wei Wu's face sank and he took a step forward, protecting her behind him, and the little second in the store saw that the beggar came in and disturbed the guest, so he hurriedly came up and shouted,

"Thena Red-Haired Monster...... Disturbing the customers in the store again! ”

After saying that, he stretched out his hand with a look of disgust, and grabbed him by the shoulder, and pulled it out, but the beggar didn't care, bent down and grabbed the table leg with one hand, and reached out to grab something on the table and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hey!"

Seeing that the beggar was dragging and not letting go, the little second couldn't help but be furious, and hit him at the waist with a fist, Han Qi couldn't bear to say when he saw this,

"Stop! Stop it! It's just some leftovers, just give it to him, why bother to hit someone! ”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper stopped the guests and hurriedly withdrew his hand, and smiled at Han Qi,

"This young lady...... It's not that we are ruthless, it's just that this beggar looks too dirty, and he can enter the store to harass the customers, and scare all our customers away. ”

Seeing this, Wei Wu reached out and took out a silver ingot and threw it on the table,

"Master bought all the dishes on this table, you bring them to him to eat!"

When the shopkeeper saw that there was money to collect, he naturally had nothing to say, so he smiled and accepted the silver, and brought all the leftovers on the table to the beggar outside.

The beggar was obviously very hungry, and his eyes only followed the things in the little second-hand thing, so he honestly followed the person to the outside of the store, sat at the corner of the street, sat cross-legged on the ground, and grabbed it with his hands to eat, Han Qi and Wei Wu followed out, and felt pitiful when he saw him like that, Wei Wu slowly walked over and squatted down to look at him carefully,

"Huh!"

Wei Wu pointed to his face and said to Han Qi,

"Look, his eyes are blue?"

Han Qi came over to take a look, and then carefully looked at his face,

"This person is not from the Central Plains, he should be a foreigner!"

Wei Wu looked under his knotted hair and saw the red roots,

"No wonder they call him the red-haired monster, he really isn't from Middle-earth like this!"

Then he asked the beggar,

"You...... Will you speak of our Middle-earth? ”

The beggar was just immersed in eating at first, so Wei Wu asked again, and then he slowly raised his head, obviously able to understand what he was saying, so Wei Wu asked him again,

"What's your name? Where are you from? Why are you here...... Or became a beggar? ”

The beggar thought for a long time before he spoke, but it was in a strange tone,

"I ...... Call Francis ......"

"Phosph...... Bright...... West...... This? ”

Wei Wu struggled to read his name, glanced back at Han Qi, and asked him again,

"Where are you from? Why is it here? ”

"I ...... I'm a Francophile...... I...... I got it...... Here it is for...... Spread the Lord's teachings...... Let the light of the Lord shine on the land of the East......"

Wei Wu was confused when he heard this, picked his scalp, and turned his head to look at Han Qi, Han Qi thought for a while and said,

"I read it in a book called Wanguo, and this man ...... He should be a preacher of doctrine! ”

Seeing that Wei Wu was still puzzled, he said again,

"This man is like the Buddhists or the Taoists, who believe in a god and believe that his god will bless the world, and his mission is to spread their teachings to the people of the world!"

Wei Wu suddenly,

"It turned out to be a monk!"

Han Qi smiled slightly and nodded,

"Although he is not called a monk, he is called a missionary, but he is a person who believes in the gods, so it can be regarded as similar!"

Wei Wu nodded and asked him again,

"How did you become a beggar, even if you were a missionary?"

The beggar was silent, Han Qi thought for a while and responded,

"His god, the people of our country have never heard of, and naturally they will not believe it, and it must be very difficult for him to preach here, perhaps there is no one to worship incense, so he has fallen here!"

It's not just hardship, it's suffering!

This Francis didn't want to come to Daqing, his destination was Namanchu Jia, only sailing at sea encountered a strong wind and waves, but somehow the ship was blown to the waters of Daqing, and in the offshore, the ship hit the reef and sank, and all the people in the boat were buried in the belly of the fish, only this Francis had a big life, and floated on the shore with a piece of rotten wood.

Only he was penniless, strange in appearance, and could not speak here, and the local people called him a monster when they saw it, and did not dare to take him in, so this Francis began to wander and beg for a life, but at this time the exotic people who dared to go to sea and adventure, most of them were brilliant people, and they wandered around here for two years, but they learned a lot of local language, and they were finally able to communicate with people!

Wei Wu and Han Qi were very sympathetic when they heard him stumble through his experience.

Han Qi was even more curious about the Franco machine in his mouth, so he said to Wei Wudao,

"Why don't we take him back to Beijing and find him a living for him, so that he won't wander around here and live a miserable life!"

This Francis went thousands of miles to another country for his faith, so he suffered so much, but he can also be called religious, such a pious and determined person, if he wanders in Daqing for another two years, I am afraid that he will die silently in some desert or in the lively streets.

Wei Wu stroked his chin and looked this person up and down,

"I gave birth to a good body, and I can take it home to be a nursing home!"

He has now risen to 100 households, and he can afford two more people in the family.

Then he asked Francis,

"Would you like to come with us?"

The red-haired and blue-eyed stranger blinked, his eyes were surprised and dazed, and Wei Wu asked him again,

"Would you like to come with us? I don't dare to say how much, but there are places to eat and sleep! ”

Francis was silent for a moment and nodded,

"Yes, sir! I'm willing to go with you! ”

Wei Wu nodded with satisfaction, and looked at him with disgust,

"You go back like this, but you can't get on the ship......"

After thinking about it, he said,

"Let's go, I'll take you to wash up first!"

This room found an inn and opened a room, and asked the shopkeeper to carry a large bucket of hot water to bathe Francis, but the red-haired monster was too dirty, Wei Wu spent extra money, and asked the shopkeeper to carry three buckets of hot water in, so he scrubbed and washed, and finally washed him clean.

Spent money to let the shopkeeper go to buy clothes, and Francis, who cleaned up and changed into clean clothes, showed his true face, sure enough, he was red-haired and blue-eyed, with a high nose and deep eyes, looking strange, Wei Wu was a little worried,

He ...... This looks so weird, I'm afraid it will cause people to criticize when I bring it back? ”

Han Qi smiled and said,

"Since ancient times, there have been aliens into our Central Plains, and there was a foreigner in the previous dynasty who met Kublai Khan and was made an official, although this alien is rare, but it is not nothing"

Wei Wu nodded,

"If that's the case, it doesn't matter!"

Sure enough, when they brought the red-haired monster back, it caused a commotion among the people, and the Jingwei were all surprised by this person's red-haired and blue-eyed eyes, and asked Wei Wudao,

"Where did Wei Baihu get a monster back?"

There was also a well-informed sneer from Jinyiwei,

"What a monster! This Franco-machine man...... I used to see this kind of person when I was in Guanghaiwei......"

After that, he frowned,

"Although they are also human beings, they are all born weird, not to mention, they still have a smell on their bodies, and they love to buy the spices we produce, just to cover up the smell on their bodies......"

As soon as he said this, everyone covered their noses and stepped back regardless of whether they smelled it or not, so that Francis was not embarrassed, and he hurriedly lowered his head and followed closely behind Wei Wu, who said with a smile,

"Have you seen enough, don't you get out of the way quickly, Lao Tzu is going back to the boat to rest!"

Everyone cheered out of the way, and Wei Wu swaggered and led the red-haired monster Francis back to the ship.

Wei Wu received the news of the return of a red-haired monster servant, and it was soon passed to Liu Jin by the little eunuchs, Liu Jin sneered when he heard this,

"This surnamed Wei is really a bastard, any spirit of unknown origin dares to bring it back, and he is not afraid of startling the holy driver!"

After saying that, he rolled his eyes, went in and reported to Zhu Houzhao,

"Your Majesty, there's something new today......

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows when he heard this,

"Oh, what's the matter?"

Liu Jin said with a smile,

"That Wei Baihu...... It is said that he brought back a barbarian of unknown origin, and it looks strange, and everyone who sees it is so frightened that they can't sleep! ”

"Oh!"

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he was interested, so he ordered,

"Someone! Call me for Wei Wu! ”

The people below hurriedly put down the boat and went to the back to transmit the message, Liu Jin hurriedly persuaded,

"Your Majesty, that barbarian is ugly and strange, he can't be spoken, and he behaves like a beast, so you must not bring him to the front, so as not to defile Your Majesty's dragon eyes!"

It's okay if he doesn't say it, the more he says this, the more energetic Zhu Houzhao becomes, and he waved his hand and said,

"I'm not afraid, I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it, but I want to take a look today!"

In fact, those strange-looking foreigners, who came to the Central Plains during the Yongle years, only after the Daqing Dynasty ocean-going fleet was no longer in full swing, and the subsequent emperors were not interested in the vast ocean, nor were they navigable with the outside world, so the Daqing people except for those foreign merchants who came up from the Silk Road in the Western Regions, but it was rare to see these red-haired and blue-eyed foreigners, like Zhu Houzhao, who was born in the palace, and had never seen this kind of world.

After thinking about it, he instructed Liu Jindao,

"You...... Go and invite the queen mother, and let her come and see the novelty! ”

"This ...... Your Majesty, that barbarian is terrible, don't be alarmed by the queen's mother! ”

Zhu Houzhao laughed and said,

"Don't worry, it won't!"

My little sister's courage is bigger than mine, I am scared, she will not be scared!

Liu Jin failed to file a complaint, and was very annoyed in his heart, so he had no choice but to invite the queen.

Xia Xiaomei heard that Wei Wu had brought a red-haired monster back, and she was really interested, but she didn't have time to clean up her appearance, so she only let Qing Yan hurriedly pull her hair in a bun, and hurriedly came out.
