Wang Peng said hello. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Fang Xiaobao believed that this Captain Niu would take care of himself. But I didn't expect the other party to take care of him too much, let him and Ma Wenfang's father and daughter go, and remove all the handcuffs and shackles.

Doesn't it mean that deceased criminals must wear torture instruments? Didn't you say you were going to board a ship and go to sea soon? Right now...... Which one is it?

Fang Xiaobao was indeed a little confused.

"Come with me, someone wants to see you!"

Captain Niu waved wildly. Then he turned and walked towards the camp. Fang Xiaobao and Ma Wenfang glanced at each other, and they both saw that they had doubts about each other.

If it comes, it will be safe. They didn't think much of it, and walked with the Captain Niu.

Soon arrived at the camp. Captain Niu turned around and took Fang Xiaobao and them to a camp tent. Before the person approached, I saw this person tear up his voice and shout: "Cousin-in-law, someone brought it to you." ”

Before the words fell, the tent was opened, and a middle-aged man walked out quickly, and when he saw Fang Xiaobao, he immediately shouted: "Brother! ”

Fang Xiaobao saw this person clearly, and couldn't help blurting out: "Old Gao! ”

The man who walked out of the tent was none other than Gao Dejin. This person was implicated by Fang Xiaobao a few months ago and was assigned to the Southwest Salt Farm. But I never thought that I would appear in the barracks today.

When he was in trouble, he was visited by an old friend. Fang Xiaobao's mood was indescribable, and his excitement was inexplicable.

Gao Dejin did the same, he stepped forward quickly, hugged Fang Xiaobao, his old eyes were full of tears, "Good brother, I didn't expect our brothers to be in this situation...... See you again. ”

Yes, old friends are reunited, and they are in prison and become criminals. Fang Xiaobao felt a lot in his heart.

"Cousin-in-law, there are a lot of people outside, so let's go in and talk if you have something to say!" Captain Niu reminded from the side.

"Yes, yes." Gao Dejin took Fang Xiaobao's hand, beckoned him and Ma Wenfang's father and daughter, and walked into the tent.

After entering, I saw a large table full of wine, food, and meat. Thinking about coming to Gao Dejin, he had already prepared, and made good wine and food to entertain Fang Xiaobao and them.

“…… Ben'er is your sister-in-law's maiden cousin, and he is the head of the place...... Brother, don't worry about you and Wen Fang, let's stay here for a few more days to recuperate. ”

Greet Fang Xiaobao when they take their seats. Gao De Jin chattered and introduced. Captain Niu Ben, a relative of Gao Dejin's wife, enlisted in the army in northern Xinjiang in his early years, made military achievements, and was transferred to the western coastal area to serve as a garrison lieutenant.

"My cousin-in-law is right, Lao Tzu is in charge here, you can live in peace and wait until you are well healthy!" Captain Niu slapped his chest aggressively.

Fang Xiaobao raised his glass, "Thank you, Captain." ”

"My cousin-in-law's friend is my friend of Niu Ben, and I should take care of it, so I can say thank you!" Captain Niu didn't have the slightest, he was very bold.

In the past few days, I have been in a hurry, I can't eat or sleep well, and I've been guilty of a lot of crimes. Now facing a table full of delicacies, Fang Xiaobao and Ma Wenfang's father and daughter both moved their index fingers and devoured them.

Seeing him gobbling up food, Gao Dejin felt inexplicably sour in his heart, and secretly turned his head to wipe a few handfuls of old tears.

Fang Xiaobao had no intention of seeing it, knowing that the other party was sorry for him. He pretended to be indifferent, and teased with a smile: "Lao Gao, you've only been here for a few days, how did you become like a girl who loves cat pee!" ”

"No, I didn't." Gao Dejin explained. He rushed over overnight after receiving the news, and his eyes were a little uncomfortable due to the cold wind.

Knowing that he had a hard mouth, Fang Xiaobao didn't dwell on it much, and asked in a curious tone, "Who notified you?" ”

"Miss."

Gao Dejin told him bluntly, and when he saw Fang Xiaobao's face sank after hearing this, he smiled bitterly: "Brother, it's not all to blame on the eldest lady, she didn't feel comfortable when she learned that you were implicated...... No, I specially sent someone to inform you, and my brother knows your situation. ”

After Fang Xiaobao heard this, he only said one sentence: "Lao Gao, this woman is too ruthless, look at what she hurt Wen Fang into!" ”

Ma Wenfang's situation. Gao Dejin had long seen it in his eyes, his face was full of scars, and his left wrist was broken, which was described in two words, very miserable.

I know that my brother hates Miss Great. Gao Dejin didn't want to say more, so he diverted the topic and beckoned Fang Xiaobao to eat more.

Fang Xiaobao was also polite. He knew in his heart that he couldn't enjoy such a delicious day for a few days.

Small talk during the dinner. Fang Xiaobao learned that Captain Niu's garrison was mainly responsible for anti-smuggling along the West Bank, and at the same time, he also had a secret mission, which was specifically responsible for sending the bereaved to the place of exile.

"Brother Niu, where is the place of exile for the bereaved?"

Gao Dejin's relatives are not outsiders. Fang Xiaobao opened his mouth to ask, trying to figure out where he would be sent.

"Silver Island."

Niu Ben said the name of the place. Then he got up and walked to the other side of the barracks. When I came back, I had an extra chart in my hand.

The dishes were cleaned up. Niu Ben spread out the chart, pointed to it, and began to say, "This is where we are now, after passing the military port to board the ship, drive north for nearly two hundred nautical miles, and we will reach the chaotic sea." ”

The chart annotations are detailed. Fang Xiaobao glanced at it and immediately locked on to the location of the Chaos Sea.

Two continental shelves. One represents China, and the other is the Western Sass Empire, across the sea. The map shows that the distance is more than 700 nautical miles, and in the middle of the country, slightly close to the mainland of China, there is a sea area marked in light red, the area is not small, covered with black dots representing the islands, densely packed, I don't know how many.

This sea marked in light red is the Sea of Chaos.

Fang Xiaobao looked carefully, from the coastal location of the Chinese mainland, there were two waterways marked by yellow lines, which led directly to the Western Sass Empire. Where the channel passes, it runs through the Sea of Chaos.

At the same time, he saw a striking skull mark on the north side of the channel, and three big characters were remarked next to it, Silver Island.

"As the name suggests, the Sea of Chaos is infested with pirates and a harsh environment...... But it is the only golden waterway connecting the East and the West! ”

Niu Ben's finger represents the black dot of the island, and he said in detail: "There are many islands in this sea area, and there are nearly a thousand of them, but most of them are uninhabited islands, lack fresh water, and are not suitable for human survival...... There are several large islands near the west, which are said to have water sources, but they are occupied by several bands of pirates, and they use them as bases to harass and rob passing merchant ships in the sea all year round. ”

"East-West trade is a big deal. Both sides have sent troops to encircle and suppress them, but the chaotic sea conditions are complicated, those pirates are haunted, and the location of the nest is even more hidden, so the effect is very small. ”

At this point, Niu Ben pointed to the chart, marking the location of the skeleton pattern, and continued: "In order to ensure the safety of the shipping lane, a long time ago, the imperial dynasty sent soldiers and horses to a nearby island. ”

This island is called Silver Island. More than 1,000 troops have been stationed on the island for a long time, and they are responsible for patrolling the chaotic waters and protecting passing merchant ships from pirates.

Speaking of this, Niu Ben looked at Fang Xiaobao and said, "Externally, this island is called Baiyin Island. There is also an islander within our military called Alcatraz. ”

Alcatraz!

After hearing this, Fang Xiaobao unconsciously looked at Ma Wenfang. The latter said with a wry smile on his face: "Alcatraz Island, as the name suggests, should be the island where the Alcatraz is imprisoned...... Owner, this should be our three 'demons', the final destination! ”

In the territory of the ancient dynasties, the remnants were regarded as demons and could not be tolerated in the world. When Fang Xiaobao heard the name of another island on Baiyin Island, just like Ma Wenfang, he already knew that the place where they were going to be banished and imprisoned was this small island.

Glancing at the charts again. Fang Xiaobao looked at Niu Ben and Gao Dejin, and also said with a wry smile: "Far enough!" ”

Silver Island is located in the middle of the Chaotic Sea. It is only a few inches on the chart, and the actual distance is not more than three or four hundred nautical miles. One nautical mile is equivalent to four miles of land, which means that the place of exile is a thousand miles from the west coast.

"It takes seven days and seven nights to get on board!"

Niu Ben gives the specific travel time. He also said that the sea was rough and the boat was bumpy, and it would be a difficult trip for those who had never been on a boat.

Fang Xiaobao understood what the other party meant. Most of those who have never been on a boat will be seasick, vomiting and diarrhea, dizzy, unable to eat or sleep, and will be more difficult to endure than to endure torture.

He hadn't been on a boat. Ma Wenfang's father and daughter must be the same.

Thinking of the trip not long after, Fang Xiaobao had nothing but a wry smile on his face.

"Ben'er."

Gao Dejin spoke. looked at Niu Ben, and his face was full of pleading: "You are the highest commander here, if you say a word, no one under your command will dare not listen...... Can you think of a way to keep my brother from suffering this sin! ”

He said it tactfully, and the actual meaning was obvious, he wanted the cow to let the people run wild. The most unfortunate, let Fang Xiaobao go.

"Cousin-in-law, everything else is easy to say, if it is a private release of the deceased...... This is a major crime of killing the head, and it will connect the nine clans! ”

Niu Ben smiled bitterly. He wanted to help, but he couldn't do it. According to the imperial law, soldiers served abroad, and their families had to stay in the interior. In the event of an accident, the family members will be questioned first.

Niu Ben is not alone. On the contrary, he has a family and a business in the imperial capital, dozens of families from top to bottom. If you dare to release Fang Xiaobao and others privately, once it is verified, the old and young in the family will be immediately imprisoned.

Gao Dejin knew that the other party was embarrassed, but he didn't know that he would take such a big responsibility. I couldn't speak for a long time after listening to it.

"To each his own life! Lao Gao, don't be embarrassed for Brother Niu anymore! ”

Fang Xiaobao patted Gao Dejin on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "God is destined for my Xiaobao to go to Alcatraz Island for a walk, no one can change it, why not take advantage of the trend." He comforted his old friend, the boat to the bridgehead naturally straight, willows and flowers bright and another village. Perhaps, this time I will go to Alcatraz Island and have another opportunity.

"Brother......" Gao Dejin's eyes were filled with tears. How could he not know that Fang Xiaobao was comforting himself. What are the chances of imprisoning Alcatraz? The only thing that is certain is that they may never see each other again in their lives.

"Although I can't let Brother Fang go, I can let them stay in the barracks, recuperate for ten days and eight days, and then set off."

Niu Ben saw that his cousin-in-law was uncomfortable, and tried his best to help. In his words, according to the rules, the survivors were sent to Alcatraz Island within a day at the latest. However, he could use the authority in his hands to delay it for 10 days and 8 days on the grounds that the sea conditions were complicated and unsuitable for ships to navigate.

In this way, Fang Xiaobao can use this time to eat and sleep well and take care of their bodies. Gao Dejin can also stay and get together for a while.

"Thank you for your kindness!"

After hearing this, Fang Xiaobao stood up and bowed deeply to Niu Ben: "Brother Niu, if my Xiaobao is still alive to meet you, today's kindness will be reciprocated!" ”

……………………………………

The timing is truly amazing!

It can make people forget their troubles, and it can also make people feel more sorrowful. It can heal a person's wounds, but it can't heal the real wounds in the heart.

Some people live like years. Some people feel that time flies.

Fang Xiaobao obviously belongs to the latter. When he and Ma Wenfang's father and daughter came to the military port and were escorted to the big ship docked at the port, in a trance, he felt that everything that happened to him seemed to be just yesterday.

Climb on the sampan and look back. Gao Dejin stood in the port, his face full of reluctance, waving at himself. From this old friend's face, Fang Xiaobao could no longer see the familiar chrysanthemum smile, only muddy tears flowed.

"Brother, cherish all the way!"

When Fang Xiaobao barely squeezed out a few smiles and waved goodbye. I saw Gao Dejin raise his arms flat, put his hands in front of his chest, bend down deeply, and perform the most standard aristocratic salute at him.

Looking at the other party's clumsy figure, Fang Xiaobao recalled the scene in the past, when they made a fortune and bought a knighthood at the same time, and at the moment when they obtained the status of nobility, they saluted and teased each other and laughed...... For some reason, my heart is inexplicably sour.

"Lao Gao, you should take care of yourself."

I took a deep look at my old friend. Fang Xiaobao skimmed his face and strode over. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back his tears. He swore in front of his mother-in-law's grave that from the moment he left Black Earth City, no matter what difficulties he encountered in this life, he would never shed tears again......
