Chapter 152: The Grasshopper Shakes the Tree

Mazu Niangniang is the most worshiped deity of people in the southeast coastal area, whether people go out to fish or go out to the South Seas and Western Oceans to do business, they will always go to the Mazu Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings before departure, hoping that they will be safe and sound.

Now Gong Changyu has taken more than 50 members of the "Water Leopard Team" carrying weapons to trespass on the Mazu Temple, which in the eyes of the fishermen is disrespectful and blasphemous to Mazu Niangniang, insulting their faith and trampling on the temple, and should be punished. It was not surprising that the fishing village self-defense force surrounded Gong Changyu and his party.

Zhou Xiaoyi walked to the door of the temple, but the big black cloak on her head was gone, her face was still covered with a black veil, her eyes were very sharp, and she said unhurriedly: "The pirates inside, you have become a turtle in the urn, I hope you will obediently put down the weapons in your hands." We can spare you a life! ”

Zhou Xiaoyi's voice echoed in the empty temple, and it was very penetrating, and from her voice, all the members of the "Water Leopard Team" smelled a strong smell, and they couldn't help but take out their weapons and prepare to defend themselves.

Although everyone has experienced several fierce battles, it is an enemy after all. We can't be too ruthless in dealing with these fishermen, because they are all the people of the Qing Dynasty and the national security, and they can't shoot back at them at will unless they have to.

Gong Changyu looked back, and it was the purple-robed woman who used her foot to shovel sand to sneak attack her in the afternoon, and thought, hehe, let us live? What a big breath, the grasshopper shakes the tree--I can't help myself. Your sister, why do you always cover your face and don't let Lao Tzu see your true face? Let's see how capable she really is.

Zhou Xiaoyi saw that Gong Changyu didn't reply, but just smiled contemptuously at her face, feeling a little confused, she stuck the musket in her waist and crossed her hands on her waist: "Pirate, why don't you speak?" You think that if you make a wish in front of the statue of Mazu Niangniang, Mazu Niangniang will protect you, you can dream of it! ”

"Little sister, I said we weren't pirates. How come you have so much to think that we are pirates who are a plague to the people? Gong Changyu pointed to the statue of Mazu Niangniang, "Have you ever seen a pirate so gentle and gentle?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, Grandma, I don't want to kill people in Mazu Niangniang's temple." Zhou Xiaoyi said.

"I'm afraid you people can't kill us. In order not to damage the contents of the Mazu Temple, let's talk about two conditions. Gong Changyu stalled his hands.

"Ridiculous, no pirates have returned alive on White Sands Island. Tonight you are a special case, you are gone and come back, and you are still talking to me about conditions. Do you think you are the emperor of the Qinghe Kingdom? Zhou Xiaoyi untied the purple cloak and handed it to a young man with a face covered in beanies in the back.

"Little sister, you and I have never met the Emperor of Qingheguo. Even if I want to be the emperor, I don't have the ability, and on this small Baisha Island, you fishermen are regarded as pirates who kill people and steal goods. Gong Changyu smiled helplessly.

"What about the Emperor? In the eyes of our fishermen on Baisha Island, the emperor is not a human being, and whoever becomes the emperor still has to fish and pay taxes. The young man with a full face picked up the conversation, "When we were attacked by pirates, where was the army of the Qinghe Kingdom?" And the brainless emperor, who sits on the Jinluan Palace every day, tossing blindly, forbidding us to go to sea to fish and do business in the South Seas, what we eat, don't we all have to starve to death? ”

yes, this guy is absolutely right. Gong Changyu nodded.

He didn't have much ink in his stomach, and he couldn't tell a high-sounding truth in the face of these fishermen. When chattering in the Zhu family compound, the uncle and daughter-in-law Feng Jiaoer also had similar views, especially the eldest princess Feng Jiaoer, who had a particularly advanced view of the world today.

People are not sages, who can be without fault, know mistakes can be corrected, and good is great. But there are always people who don't regard themselves as people, regard themselves as sages, or more sages than sages, such as the emperor with supreme power, comparing himself to the Son of Heaven, and boasting of Chrysostom, what he says is not the speech of ordinary people, called edicts, holy decrees, oral edicts or something, anyway, whether you understand it or not, tens of thousands of grass and mud horses in your heart, you still have to say "obey the decree" in your mouth.

How many disasters throughout the ages have not been natural disasters but man-made disasters, and they have nothing to do with this purpose? The answer is 100 percent, so will the emperor admit his mistake? The answer is also no, of course, there are still several examples of emperors admitting their mistakes in history, which is nothing more than a coy attitude in the face of natural disasters and excusing themselves.

Those godlike emperors are actually more likely to make mistakes, ordinary people make small mistakes and small evils, they are big mistakes and big evils, and they will kill themselves if they do many evils, and the change of dynasties is like this. Seeing this, don't talk about "Wei Guangzheng".

Qinghe is now in internal and external difficulties, and there are many crises, and people's lives are not as good as day by day. Involved in the war of repression and counter-suppression, aggression and anti-aggression, Gong Changyu never wanted to disarm and return to the field as soon as possible and live a stable life, but he couldn't help it, the emperor was incompetent, and he had to move on.

Zhou Xiaoyi saw that Gong Changyu had nothing to say, and thought, if the person in the red robe in front of her was really a pirate captain, the vicious pirates would not come to Mazu Temple to bow down except for burning, killing and looting, and would not negotiate any conditions with her. I'll test him again to see if he's a hidden court lackey?

"Red-robed monster, you take all your people out of the Mazu Temple, you and I go to the Tin Hau Square behind to have a fight, if you win against me, your men can stay on the island for seven days. If you lose...... You have to take me off this island and send me back to my hometown......" Zhou Xiaoyi said word by word.

When Gong Changyu heard this, he pouted, it is easy to beat you as a woman, and this general only needs one hand to fight against you, and he will also take you into his arms. He thought about it, and felt that the woman's words seemed to be a little wrong, and if she lost, she had to send her back to her hometown, didn't it be clear that I could only win, not lose?

"Little sister, what if we get to a tie?" Gong Changyu frowned.

"It's very simple, if it's a tie, you have to marry me as your wife, and the real estate and real estate on Baisha Island are all yours." Zhou Xiaoyi replied without thinking.

"Little sister, what if I don't want to fight?" Gong Changyu smiled.

"Then get out of here immediately, and you all go to the top of the Lingding Ocean tonight to feed the fish." Zhou Xiaoyi was very impatient, "I don't have the ability, I'm still chattering in circles." ”

"Red-robed monster, our captain said, I can't help you not fight, otherwise none of your people will want to leave Baisha Island alive." A large man with a harpoon in his hand shouted in a gruff voice.

"Okay." Gong Changyu replied in a cool voice, "Since your captain is determined to fight me alone, I will fulfill her!" Girls first, please-" Gong Changyu pulled out his sword and said impassionedly.

Zhou Xiaoyi shook her head, "Let's go, the wind is blowing, the war drums are beating, who is afraid of anyone in this world!" She took the musket out of the Mazu Temple and went to the side of Tin Hau Square.

Gong Changyu followed behind her, looking at Zhou Xiaoyi's back, and couldn't help but think secretly, this young lady is clearly a good child, why is she still like a virgin, and there is no sign of childbirth?

The Tin Hau Square in front of the temple covers an area of more than 10,000 square meters, and there is a large stage with a height of 28 meters, which is the place where the Mazu Temple holds grand events, and the viewing platforms and corridors on both sides can accommodate nearly 10,000 spectators. As soon as Gong Changyu arrived at Tin Hau Square, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. The moonlight was scattered on the ground like flowing water, the shadows of the trees were waving, the sea breeze was gently blowing, and the waves were gently beating against the beach.

Zhou Xiaoyi stood in the center of the square, threw away the musket, and took out a soft steel whip from his waist: "Red-robed monster, report your name, I, Zhou Xiaoyi, have never confronted unknown people." ”

"General Gong Jichang...... Your name is Zhou Xiaoyi? Is it the 'small' of the size and the 'shift' of the movement? Gong Changyu pointed his sword at the moon.

"Move your head, Aunt Ben is a comfortable Yi, not a mobile Yi! Look like you haven't read a book? Zhou Xiaoyi played the steel whip with a whirring sound.

"Hehe, your name is exactly the same as one of my distant cousins, Zhou Xiaoyi. Little sister, won't you be my little cousin? "Gong Changyu is giggling.

"Oily and smooth, don't get close to me. Get your name on it! Zhou Xiaoyi frowned coldly.

"Little sister, I always feel that you are my little cousin of the foodie lady, as if your mother and I haven't made five suits yet......" Gong Changyu drew an arc with his sword in the air.

"Red robe monster, do you know which five suits are?" Zhou Xiaoyi asked.

"I don't know." Gong Changyu shook his head.

"The five suits are Qi decay, chopping decline, great merit, small merit, and numbness ......"

"I only know that starting from myself, count up four generations, great-grandfather, great-grandfather, grandfather, father, and then count down four generations, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and those who are not within this range are not relatives." Gong Changyu smiled, "If you don't guess wrong, your mother is a literary generation, and your mother's name is Wenxiu......"

"Don't call my mother's name, you red-robed monster ......" As soon as the words fell, Zhou Xiaoyi's steel whip was pulled out of Gong Changyu's face like a snake.

"Not good!" Gong Changyu screamed secretly, he twisted the saber horizontally and blocked the steel whip, but the steel whip was too soft and could not entangle the steel whip, and was pulled back by Zhou Xiaoyi.

With a "whew", the second whip came over again, whipping on the armor on Gong Changyu's waist, if it wasn't for the cushion of the armor, I'm afraid the skin would have been cracked. The thorn was hanging on the battle robe, Zhou Xiaoyi pulled the steel whip in his hand, and Gong Changyu's battle robe was torn in half with a sound of "silk".

Oh, this foodie lady is strong enough, and she can't take it lightly anymore, Gong Changyu thought about sending the saber to the scabbard, quickly took off half of the battle robe, and threw it on the top of Zhou Xiaoyi's head, the battle robe rotated, and immediately covered her head.

Zhou Xiaoyi didn't expect Gong Changyu to come to this hand, because her eyes were covered, she couldn't see where Gong Changyu was, so she had to reach out and take off the robe on her head. Almost at the same time, Gong Changyu jumped with his sword and had already reached Zhou Xiaoyi's side, and the blade of the sword was across her pink neck.
