Chapter 830: Yin and Yang Leverage
"We didn't want to get a piece of the pie, we wanted to go with it...... Akon said to Francis Drake, who took off his hat and bowed, and the feeling made him happy. Saluting him in front of him is the famous 'Sea Devil' Francis Drake, the legendary Pirate of the Caribbean!
In comparison, the pirates in "Pirates of the Caribbean" directed by Gore Wipinski of the real Shijie are not even worthy of lifting shoes for this 'sea demon'! At this time, the 'Sea Demon King' was bowing to him.
"I'm sorry that all six of our ships are full of cargo, and it would be too lazy for such a ship to receive His Excellency the Baron. I think there will be a chance to ...... in the future" Drake was instructed to refuse all followers, lest the slave trade lead to unnecessary rhetoric. “…… Besides, there are goods delivered by Empress Bixia, which is really not very convenient......"
Akon waved his hand, impatiently interrupting Drake's excuse, "We have a ship of our own, and we just want to sail with you in formation." Our baron is on his first voyage and doesn't know the way, so I hope you will show the way. ”
"You have your own boat?!" Drake was taken aback by Akon's words, and when he looked up, he found that there was actually a group of Orientals in front of him. But the first young man to compare Sven was indeed a baron for life. And this nobleman seems to have heard of it.
"Could it be that this is His Excellency Shi Fan, the Royal Baron for Life, the Knight of the Royal Bath, and the owner of the Golden Spurs?" Drake looked at Zhang Fan with some surprise, it seemed that this Oriental who was not amazing was actually a famous adventurer.
Legend has it that in the far east, in the war between China and Arabia, he and his companions single-handedly killed 5,000 Arab cavalry! And in Asia Minor, they found the treasures of Byzantium for a thousand years! What is even more admirable is that this generous oriental adventurer, who dedicated most of his Byzantine treasures to England, was personally canonized by the King of England!
His adventures are simply a legend of the Arabian Nights! Legend has it that this young adventurer from the East, along with his companions, had the mysterious dragon Liliang ......
Akon looked at Drake's admiring eyes, and knew in his heart that this was Zhang Fan and the team's fame. So he immediately struck while the iron was hot and said to Drake: "Baron Shi Fan has his own magical sea ship from the East, which is a four-masted galleon. Although this ship does not need to be manned, His Excellency Baron still wants an experienced and responsible captain to guide us on our adventures in the Atlantic. So if you want to follow your fleet, I hope to get the recommendation of His Excellency Hawkins......"
Drake's eyes lit up when he heard the four-masted galleon, and he straightened his chest, "If you're looking for an experienced captain, I don't know if I have the honor." ”
Akon pretended to be puzzled, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of being ...... gentleman in front of us."
"Francis Drake is here for you. His Excellency John Hawkins is my cousin. One of the six ships on this voyage was my own merchant ship. Of course, it was just a small boat...... "Drake started as a sailor, and gradually got into the way until he now has his own merchant ship.
Of course, he knew the value of a four-masted galleon ship. The 700-ton galleon 'Jesus' that the queen invested in her cousin was only three masts. Only galleons of more than 800 tons were required to install a fourth emast.
When Drake was a sailor, he heard that in the distant eastern country of China, it was once possible to build galleons of thousands of tons! It's a city on the sea! And such a great ship, that great country far away, actually built thousands of them! In contrast, Spain's so-called 'Armada' is as disparity as a small school of sturgeon and a large group of whales.
That great nautical legend is still being recited among some tribes in Africa. Therefore, the legendary adventurer from the East in front of him, who has a four-masted galleon, may not be a lie.
If you become the captain of the Baron's four-masted galleon, this voyage will be almost a navigator of the same level as your cousin! Perhaps he will be able to fulfill his wish to travel around Shijie and explore more distant seas than the great navigators Columbus and Magellan! Young Francis Drake envisions a beautiful future.
Drake's initiative to take refuge far exceeded the expectations of Zhang Fan Akon and the book demon. It's as if the scene is biased to deliver what you need to your eyes, and you're afraid that you'll miss it. Combined with the twenty-year mandate, the scene is simply incomprehensible. The book demon Akon looked at each other, and they even wondered if there was a conspiracy in this......
…………
The midnight of the real shijie is the time when the vow-bearer enters the scene. In the backyard of a large family in a township in City C, a thin old woman is digging this thing by the deserted ancestral hall. There was a simple altar beside her, as if she was doing a ritual. This old woman is none other than Xingfa (Xuanyuan Xing)'s grandmother - Miao Jiang's Heavy Pupil Gu King!
The Gu King's face was a little happy, and he muttered with words in his mouth: "I can't imagine that the ancestors of this big family still have some blessings and remnants, give me luck to nourish my qi, and I can actually raise a golden silkworm Gu!" My good grandson is blessed, and the Golden Silkworm Gu King can absorb the good fortune of this head of the family through this kind of family, and feed my grandson back! Hey hey ......"
"Daxian subordinates leave some yin virtue, our children and grandchildren also need the blessings of our ancestors to live......" The voice of the ghost came from the altar, and on this full moon night, it was extremely terrifying.
The old woman with heavy eyes turned around and said coldly to the two blue-gray illusory ghosts on the altar: "I naturally know in my heart, isn't it just to borrow some of your residual shade to help my grandson?" So wordy! Have I done your business? ”
The two ghosts faintly showed the dress of a wealthy family in the Qing Dynasty, and said with a smile: "Daxian said that the place where your grandson is in the underworld is really not something that we lonely souls and wild ghosts can touch...... Dasen, please forgive this ......"
"Fart! your! The old woman with heavy eyes was furious and scolded in a low voice: "Full of nonsense! Do you think I don't know anything about your underworld?! You two old ghosts, you have the ability to stay in the city for so long, which of those underworld ghosts is good to get along with?! You clearly have some ability to buy through the ghosts, so that you can get away in the yang world! Do you think you can fool the scavenger priest and fool me?! ”
The two ghosts were drunk by the old woman, and they were so shocked that they laughed again and again: "The great immortal clearly sees that we do have some karma in the old world and have some ways in the underworld, so that we can stay in the yang world for a long time." I also spent some money here to buy off the ghost officials. If it weren't for the fact that these unscrupulous descendants could not make us comfortable after death, why would we be here?! ”
"Yes, this matter still has to be taken care of by the great immortals......" Another chubby ghost, who was a rich businessman in his previous life, also explained on the side. It seems that he is very dependent on this Heavy Pupil Gu King.
"I can do your business in two days. However...... "The old woman with heavy pupils bought a pass and deliberately made it difficult."
The two old ghosts were both refined, how could they not understand the meaning of the old woman with heavy pupils, and hurriedly said: "We will do our best to ...... your grandson's affairs in that place in the underworld."
The fat rich merchant turned around and scolded the thin ghost who looked like a clear old pedant: "You old ghost, your old friend who has been in love for three lifetimes is now serving as the city god, you don't even ask!" Harm Daxian is tired of running around......"
The old pedant ghost said angrily: "What a city god, it's just a small clerk on the edge of the city god! What is his ability to relate to that spiritual thing? It is you, who use the Yang Shi to repair the temple, help the monks, relieve the victims, and plant the blessed fields. After death, he is so rich, and he will be blessed to future generations. There is still money left over to buy off the ghost officials and stay in the yang world. Don't you just want your children and grandchildren to do Dharma for you, don't give it to me? Penny pincher! Why don't you spend some money and help Daxian's grandson leave some way back in that place......"
The rich merchant ghost angrily pulled the old pedantic ghost, "I don't want to have anything to do with your old ghost in the future!" If we don't straighten out these karma in this life, we will inevitably get involved in karma in the future, and it will affect our children and grandchildren! Otherwise, what kind of energy do we spend on these worldly things! ”
The old scholar dodged aside, and said in a strange manner: "Don't talk about this, you didn't bribe Niu Tou Ma Mian, they seem to have a good relationship with some powerful yin spirits in that spiritual world......
"What friendship? Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up and let your old friend check that the grandson of the Great Immortal is now in that spiritual realm, and I can only take care of it on my side......" The ghost of the rich merchant dragged the old pedant to him.
The old woman waved her hand, "Don't bite, I've heard it clearly!" If my good grandson doesn't get any good over there, don't count on it! If you have the ability, you will stay in the yang world for another 300 years! By the way, I should also communicate with the land in this area and tell the scavengers to leave this gossip alone. This disturbs the order of yin and yang, how can someone take care of it......"
The two old ghosts immediately quieted down, didn't dare to blame each other anymore, and said to Daoqian, promising to go back to the underworld immediately to get this matter done. The rapid change made the old woman with heavy eyes stunned.
The old pedantic ghost patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, Daxian, let's go back and talk to my old friend who has been in love for three lifetimes." He had heard that several of his ghost friends also served in that spirit realm, and they were all powerful ghosts. There are even some Western ghost friends who often come and go. I don't think it's a trivial matter......"
The wealthy merchant also hooked the old scholar's neck, as if he had been an old friend for many years, and said to the Heavy Pupil Gu King: "I also have some strong ghost friends in the spirit world, and I have some paths, and I know some of the Flying Yaksha and the Mighty Ghost King there. If your grandson is training there, I can help a little bit as well. Isn't it just a dredging effort, money can make the ghost grind...... Hehe! ”
