Zheng He asked the person who fell into the water to change into clean clothes and asked. "Where are you from?" Don't you know that it is dangerous to be at sea with only a small boat? ”

"Of course I know it's dangerous, but there's no way around it!" The man replied, "My name is Byrymissoula, and you may call me Sula." I am the prince of the kingdom of Sri Buddha (present-day ancient kingdom of Sumatra, Indonesia), who was brutally invaded by them for refusing to pay tribute to the kingdom of Majapahit (present-day ancient kingdom of Java, Indonesia). Now that my family is dead and the country has fallen, I managed to escape with the help of my guards. The enemy is frantically chasing us along the way, and only the last one of the dozen or so guards remains, seeing that victory is ahead, I can't imagine that I still haven't escaped the poisonous hands of the shark, but fortunately I can escape death by meeting you, and I will never forget your great kindness, may I ask where you are sacred? ”

"We are the Great Ming Water Master." Zheng He said, "I have also heard about what is happening in your country, what are your plans now?" "Sri Buddha died near the Old Port, and Zheng He was certainly no stranger.

"It's really my honor to meet the famous Huaxia Fleet." "I'm going to Temasek, where there is a tribal chief who is a good friend of my father's daughter, and now I'm desperate to go to him to borrow troops in the hope of recovering my country," Sula said in surprise. ”

Ding Erniu brought a plate of food, and after Sula ate something, there was a trace of blood on his pale face, and his melancholy eyes were as bright as stars.

Tie Ta looked at the young man in front of him and couldn't help but secretly praise, sixteen or seventeen years old, delicate facial features, fair skin, although he looks a little weak, but his body is well-proportioned, his muscles are strong, his palms are thick and powerful, he should have had the experience of practicing martial arts, and he can not be surprised in the face of such a big blow, this is a talent that can be created! He suddenly rejoiced in his heart, as if he had found a rare treasure, and volunteered: "I am a man who cannot be idle, so I will accompany you to the chief!" ”

Sula said gratefully, "That's great, with the help of the Tower King, I can do great things." ”

When Temasek arrived, Zheng He ordered the fleet to come ashore and recuperate. The tower carried Sula to the chief, and the two talked and laughed along the way, and had a very pleasant conversation.

"Sura, do you know where the chief lives?"

"I don't know exactly where they live, but I know that in the mountains not far from the sea, their tribe is very large, I heard that there are two or three thousand people! If we follow the mountain path, we will definitely find it. ”

"You look like you've probably practiced martial arts, right?"

"I have studied with the guards for a few years, but fortunately, with these hands and three-legged cat kung fu, I can save the way from danger."

"You're too modest, I think you're pretty good." The tower praised.

I walked along the mountain road for most of the day, and I also visited several tribes along the way, but none of them were the people Sura was looking for. The sun was about to set, and the two came to a magnificent pass, and a large flag embroidered with a golden lion floated on the tower. This pass guards the key points of several mountain roads, and is surrounded by towering mountains on all sides, and the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"Looks like we're going to spend the night here." Sula was a little frustrated.

"Don't be discouraged, you'll find it." The tower comforted.

Suddenly, there was a "whoosh" sound of arrows, and a group of people rushed out of the woods, holding large knives and spears in their hands, and surrounded the two of them in the middle with a shout, and their eyes were very unfriendly.

Isn't this a thief who robs a house? When they meet me, they are going to make a loss-making deal, and the tower sneered.

A tall, powerful middle-aged man walked out and asked majestically, "Who are you?" How did you come to our Golden Lion Tribe? Is it a spy sent by the Jinma tribe? ”

This man is so familiar! Sula had a sense of déjà vu, and when she heard the name of the Golden Lion Tribe, she was even more sure in her heart, wasn't this person in front of her the chief Jin Gang who she was looking for? Then he fell to the ground and said excitedly: "Don't get me wrong, we are not spies. Uncle Jingang, I'm Sula! Prince Sulla, who died in Sri Buddha. ”

"You're Sula? You're not dead? Jin Gang said in surprise, "I have sent five or six groups of people to inquire about your news, but unfortunately the palace was burned to ruins, we all thought ...... Thought you were dead. As he spoke, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands, and he didn't know whether he was sad or happy.

"Uncle, I'm not dead. When the city was broken, the guards desperately rescued me from the palace and put me on the ship. Before he died, my father asked me to come here to you, saying that only you can help me. Sulla was very excited, and his great cause of restoration finally saw a glimmer of light.

Jin Gang's face turned red, which looked extremely unnatural, but he immediately became enthusiastic again, "I'm really happy to see that you're okay, you've worked hard all the way, go to my house to settle down first, and then think about things in the long run." This strong man, thank you for sending my son-in-law here, this is a hundred taels of gold, a small meaning, not a tribute. "With a gesture of his hand, someone immediately presented two ingots of gold.

Is this to send me away? Iron Tower deliberately pretended not to understand, first took the gold in his hand, and then cheekily followed them into the gate. "I hit it off with Sulla, this young man is a talent, but unfortunately he is not deeply involved in the world, and his experience is still shallow, if he has his own old Jianghu to help, his plan to restore the country will be much smoother. As for the gold, hehe! Isn't it a fool to have money and don't want that? "The tower has its own considerations.

"This guy is really thick-skinned." Jin Gang was secretly angry in his heart, but it was not good to reprimand him in person, after all, the tower came with Sula, so he had to give him some face.

Along the winding stone road, the group walked towards the opposite hill, and at a glance, the rice in the terraced fields was golden, and the hillside was full of war horses, cattle and sheep. At this time, there was a deafening sound of drill in the forest, and two teams of heavily armed soldiers rushed out, one in high spirits and high morale.

"The strength of the Golden Lion tribe should not be underestimated, this chief really has some ability, but unfortunately he is a little stingy." The tower is still a little dissatisfied with Jingang's attitude just now, Lao Tzu is also the dignified king of the tower, it is your honor to come to your small cottage, and you dare to show me a face, I bah!

At the top of the hill are patches of wooden houses, and in the center is a luxurious mansion, and at the door stand several tall soldiers, this is the chief's residence.

"Xiaoqing, take the two guests to the VIP room to rest." Jin Gang instructed the maid, and then said to Sula: "Great nephew, when you come here, you are at your own home, and you must not be polite." I have one more important business to do, and I'll come back to you in the evening. ”

Sula was so moved that she almost burst into tears, and she was secretly glad in her heart: "It's right to come here, I didn't find the wrong person." ”

After settling down Sula, Jin Gang broke away from his personal guards and walked towards the back mountain alone. Walking through a bamboo forest, he looked carefully behind him, and found that no one was following him, so he walked to a chic bamboo building, knocked three times lightly, and whispered, "The person you are looking for is here." ”

"Haha! It's finally here. A smug voice came out, "Then you should know how to do it, right?" ”

"Of course I know, alive or dead?" Jin Gang's tone was very cold, like a dagger shining with cold light, which made people shudder.

"It's okay to be dead, but it's better to be alive."

"I'll arrange it now." Jin Gang left immediately without even taking a seat.

Xiaoqing took the tower and Sula to the guest room, and when she passed through the garden, she was greeted by a girl with bright eyes and bright teeth. She looked at Sula with interest and asked in a voice like a silver bell, "Who are you?" How come I haven't seen you? ”

Sula was slightly distracted by the girl's beauty, but quickly regained her composure and said with a smile, "My name is Sulla, and I am from Sri Buddha. ”

"You're Sura?" The girl jumped up happily, "I'm so happy to see you, I'm Caiyun!" Your fiancée, Caiyun. ”

"Huh?" Sula was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time, he had fantasized countless times about the reunion with his fiancée, he rode a brave white horse, his entourage held all kinds of gifts, and the marriage procession stretched for several miles, which was really indescribable. But now? Now is the time when I am the most depressed, what a trick! Sulla couldn't help but feel a little sad.

After knowing each other's identities, Caiyun suddenly became shy, and secretly glanced at Sula, seeing that he was beautiful and polite, he couldn't help but blush slightly, and his heart was like a deer colliding with him.

Sula and Caiyun were married, and the last time they met was ten years ago, when they were still snotty children, and they had reached the age of talking about marriage when they reunited, and this garden encounter also fully proved that the two were indeed destined.

"When I heard that your country was invaded, my father sent several groups of people to find out the news, and everyone said that you were dead, and I cried several times after hearing the bad news. Bodhisattva bless, you have finally returned safe and sound. Caiyun's concern is beyond words, and it is definitely not pretended.

Sula was silent, he already had a painful decision in his heart, if his great cause of recovering the country could not be successful, then the marriage contract with Caiyun would be canceled, and such a good girl would definitely not be able to affect her.

Xiaoqing walked away with interest, she and Caiyun are sisters, where do you not know Miss's thoughts?

Caiyun personally took the two to the guest room, she quickly cleaned up the bed, and put on a new set of red quilts, "You guys rest first, I'll prepare dinner." ”

The room was large, and it didn't feel cramped at all for two people, and Sula lay on the soft bed, her nose filled with the unique smell of a quilt with a faint sunshine, a smell he hadn't smelled in a long time.

"Is this chief reliable? I don't think he's a little weird. The tower asked suddenly.

"Of course it works!" Sula said categorically, "My father and Uncle Jin Gang were friends for eight worships, and not only helped him establish this tribe, but also often gave him some weapons and silver taels, otherwise he would not have given Caiyun to me." ”

Iron Tower shook his head, Sula is still too naïve, you used to be a prince, no matter who saw you, you would be very enthusiastic, but now that your identity is different, it is difficult to say whether others will still be sincere to you.

"Sura, Big Brother Tower, it's time to eat." It didn't take long for Caiyun to invite the two of them to the hall for dinner.

There were more than ten bowls on the table, large and small, and Caiyun kept picking up dishes for Sula, "These dishes are all made by me, so I should take care of the wind for you." ”

Sula looked at her gratefully and ate it in a big gulp, the food tasted very good, and she would be blessed in the future.

"Caiyun, where's your father?" Eiffel Tower asked.

"He? Haven't come back yet. He's been mysterious these days, and he doesn't know what he's busy with, and he doesn't even have a chance to have a meal together. Caiyun complained.

The tower frowned, but still quietly lowered his head to eat.

After dinner, Sula returned to the room and rested on the head of the bed, and after a while she made a slight snoring sound, and she had not slept a peaceful sleep during this time, and the tight string finally loosened here, and the person fell asleep unconsciously.

The tower sat on the side without sleep, always feeling that there was something wrong with this chief, he hadn't seen his figure since the evening separation, and he didn't appear even if he didn't think about it, this is unreasonable! Even if there is a guest in an ordinary family's house, the host will not avoid it even if he is busy, not to mention that Sula's identity is far more than just an ordinary guest. Is it true that the chief did this? ”

"Bang bang bang!" A quick knock on the door interrupted the tower's thoughts, and when it opened, it was a cloud. He raised his finger to his lips and made a silent gesture, and whispered, "Sula has already slept, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

"Something is wrong." Caiyun didn't care about explaining, ran to the side of the bed and shook Sula awake hard, and said anxiously: "Sula, run quickly, my father wants to kill you." ”

"Kill me? Why? Sula rubbed her eyes and asked in a daze.

Caiyun said with tears in his eyes: "Since your accident, my father can't wait to find someone to tell me about the matchmaker, I know exactly what he thinks in his heart, he is a snob who hates the poor and loves the rich." Just now, Xiaoqing went to deliver food to the two VIPs in Zizhulin, and accidentally sprained my foot on the way, so I volunteered to deliver it on her behalf, but inadvertently let me discover a big secret, it turned out that the two guests were envoys of the Majapahit Kingdom, and they had stayed in three days ago. I heard my father talking outside the window with the messengers, who were discussing how to arrest you at night and kill you if you dared to resist. ”

"Caiyun, thank you." Sula was moved and solemnly promised her: "In the future, when I succeed in recovering the country, I will definitely marry you as my queen." ”

"I'm sure you'll make it." Caiyun kissed Sura lightly on the cheek and hurried out again.

Sulla's whole person panicked, "King Tower, let's leave quickly." ”

The tower smiled disdainfully, "Let's go? We don't have to, if you want, I can kill the chief now. ”

"No way!" Sura refused without hesitation, "Uncle Jin Gang has always been Caiyun's father, although he is unkind, I can't be unrighteous. I don't want to embarrass Caiyun, so let's go first! ”

"Sula is kind-hearted, he will definitely be a good king in the future, and I must help him realize his ideals." Iron Tower thought to himself, and carried Sula down the mountain. At this time, the sky was overcast, the moon and stars did not come out, and it was dark everywhere, although there were many guards along the way, he still walked calmly, and these people were decorations in his eyes.
