Katori was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly thanked him. I didn't expect that a righteous and courageous act really made a great contribution, and he was appreciated by the young master, and his status in the Ouchi family has improved a lot.

Hirai Iwa grabbed a few steps too early and squatted next to Ouchi Chimori, asked a few words, and checked his eyes and wounds to confirm that they were getting better. After checking the wounds of the Lai Cai Niu, and not worrying for his life, he stood up and ordered the samurai to carry the two wounded men into the house, and drove the owner of the house to the kitchen.

This happened in Yamaguchi Castle, which caused Ouchi to lose some face, and he shouted loudly and ordered his retainers to immediately find out the origin of the assassin. Although he knew that there was little hope, the Ashtas were quick and nimble, and they would never survive if they failed to assassinate, and no one had ever heard from them about their employers, but what had to be done was always done.

was in a hurry, and Xu Hai also arrived with more than 10 armed sailors. As soon as he learned that there had been an assassination, he immediately sent someone to inform his companions at the dock, at least it seemed to be above board, which helped to clear up his own involvement.

Xu Hai was anxious when he heard this, and immediately led people into the city to answer and came to the scene of the assassination. Seeing that the samurai of the Ouchi family were cleaning up the scene of the assassination, there were dead corpses everywhere, and the flesh and bones on the street flew to the ground, which was unbearable to see, which showed the tragedy of the fight, and Xu Hai's heart was beating when he saw it.

Entering the mansion, fortunately, Chongwen was not injured, and the blood on his body was all assassin's. Although Laicai Niu was seriously injured, he did not worry about his life, so he put his heart back in his stomach. He didn't salute Ouchi, but just said to Chongwen: "We can't stay in this place, let's board the ship and go back to Hirado immediately." ”

Ouchi said: "The poisoning of the cattle is not light, and it must be slowly adjusted, I am afraid that I will not be able to stand the turbulence of the sea." ”

Xu Hai said angrily: "Why don't you want to leave our people here and take you hostage?"

Ouchi Zhishi was scolded by Xu Hai, a little embarrassed, Chongwen persuaded: "Ah Hai, you don't have to say angry words, Lord Zhishi didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, and Zhisheng was also injured." He turned his head and said to Ouchi Zhishi: "The brothers of Dragon King Island are all upright and rude, don't mind where the words collide. ”

Ouchi bowed down and said, "I'm sorry, it's too embarrassing for such a fact in Yamaguchi Castle, please forgive His Highness Da Chuhai and Lord Xu." If it weren't for the injury of Zhisheng Fenyong, I would have made him apologize. ”

Chongwen was taken aback, and waved his hand again and again: "Lord Zhishi is resting, and this matter will not be mentioned again, as if it never happened." But it seems that some people don't like the two of us to walk around.,Recently, you have to pay attention to safety.,Don't be plotted by villains.。。。 Especially the people around you. ”

Ouchi Zhishi nodded and said, "His Royal Highness Lao has bothered, I will definitely find out about this matter and give you an explanation." If His Royal Highness doesn't dislike it, Lord Cainiu will stay in Zhou's Mansion to recuperate, and we will take care of the warriors. ”

Chongwen thought for a moment and said, "That's all it can be." ”

Laicai Niu was lying in the room, the thin paper door couldn't block the sound, and when he heard that Chongwen was going to leave him here, he hurriedly opened the door and said, "The big sea is in danger, and I can't leave." I have snake venom, and in Patagonia, snake venom is not deadly. ”

Seeing that the giant man's tears were about to fall, Chongwen couldn't bear to leave him in Yamaguchi Castle, he turned to Ouchi and said, "In that case, I'll take him back to Hirado, the people at sea have been through many storms and waves, and they are not so fragile, maybe the boat will still be good for his injuries." ”

Seeing that they must go, and it is not easy to force them to stay, Ouchi said to Hirai Iwata: "Go and send someone to carry my eight-shouldered chakra over and send the Fortune Cow-sama to the ship." ”

Hirai Iwa replied loudly, "Yes." ”

Under the covert protection of a large number of Ouchi samurai, Chongwen and his party successfully boarded the ship, pulled anchor and set sail. Chongwen ordered the launch of a 2-and-a-half-pound gun, which was fired into the air without a cannon. This is a tribute to Ouchi Mochiyo, indicating that the Tokai merchant group will not misunderstand him, and it is also a demonstration to the enemy in the shadows, and any trickery is a useless struggle in front of the cannon.

The sheltered ship sailed out of the open sea smoothly, the sea was calm, and flocks of brown skuas flew freely on the sea. Chongwen stood on the corridor of the stern tower, looking out at the place where the sea and the sky met in the distance, and his brows condensed into a Sichuan character.

Xu Haiyu was still angry, and said hatefully: "This father and son are really a disaster, and dealing with them is the death of the mother, I may not be able to trust him when I see the group." ”

Chongwen shook his head slightly, and said: "Without the Great Inner Holding World, maybe I would be buried in the second hall of the Zhou Visiting Mansion, he is not that kind of person." Ahai, have you ever thought that maybe the problem is in Hirado. ”

Xu Hai was taken aback, looked at Chongwen in surprise, and said, "You mean... But what good can we do if our people are in tune, the shogunate wants to send us all back to Nanjing. ”

Chongwen said: "I don't want to think like that, but I can't help but think about it, I think that the flower world is not monolithic, such as the blind old masseuse." ”

Xu Hai thought for a while and said, "He's an old blind man, how could he know about your arrival at the mountain pass." He suddenly raised his head, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes: "You mean... You mean Sayuri?"

Chongwen looked at the sea in the distance and did not speak, his face shrouded in dark clouds.

The ship sailed smoothly through the southern coast of Honshu, crossed the Maguan Strait, and entered the sea of Xiqi. When the ship sailed to the waters of Falklands and Liulian Island, a fleet suddenly appeared on the horizon in front of it, which was not like an ordinary fleet running in a column, but it was a horizontal formation, just like a combat formation.

Chongwen was a little nervous, and ordered the Sea Dragon King Banner to be raised, and the 6 big guns were pushed out, and the sailors also bowed their swords and unsheathed, ready to fight. Although this is the territory of the Matsuura Party, it is difficult to say that there are no poor and boring guys who want to make money.

The ship is getting closer and closer, and I can already see the ship type and flag clearly, which is a medium-sized fortune ship of Dakang. Xu Hai grabbed Chongwen, suppressed his excitement and said, "Da Chuhai, listen, they are singing." ”

Chongwen listened attentively, and the sea breeze sent a faint singing: "The poor island is lonely, and the hurricane is cold." I don't know if it's Haikou, thousands of miles of air waves... The dragon was gloomy and angry. The autumn yin is proud, and the tide is like a mountain. . . "This is the battle song, the battle song of Longwang Island, which is becoming the war song of the East China Sea merchant group!

Suddenly, the lookout of Shangdou shouted excitedly: "Roll the Dragon King Banner of the Sea, it's our fleet, it's the Kang boat!" Chongwen's hand was tightly clasped on the railing of the corridor, and he could even hear Xu Haichang beside him let out a sigh of relief, and Monk Hua said excitedly: "It's the second out of the sea, the second out of the sea is back!"

Chongwen has been waiting for this fleet for too long, on the sea, it is far from enough to have gold, silver and friendships, he also needs ships, guns and cannons, otherwise he is an empty group and can't do anything. With this fleet, it was different, the road map he drew for the country became possible in an instant, Chongwen said as calmly as possible: "Join the mother, open the cannon!" Say hello to them!"

After a stick of incense, a small boat rowed to the side of the boat, and Liu Guan took the catfish cubs, and several old people such as Cannon Jiong, Hai Liqing, Xu Yi, and Liu Huaide boarded the bow of the boat, and Chongwen and Xu Hai came up.

The catfish boy grabbed a few steps and bowed down: "I went to sea, I finally saw you again... As soon as he said one word, tears filled his eyes.

Chongwen pulled him up and said with a smile: "Isn't it good for me, the Nanshan Zhongyi Temple refuses to accept me." Mother, you're about to marry a daughter-in-law, why are you still crying. ”

The second out of the sea laughed and stepped forward, clasped his fists and arched his hands: "Da out of the sea, I'm back, now we are strong and strong, whoever you say, we will him!"

Chongwen punched Er Chuhai in the chest, and scolded with a smile: "Mother, I came back so late, and the dog can't beat it." ”

Cannon Jiong, Hai Liqing and others rushed forward together, holding hands with Chongwen and Xu Hai. The people of Longwang Island are like wolves about to fight, roaring loudly, provoking the entire country, we are here, we are going to him! The new sailor of the foreign ship looked confused, what kind of people are these who have entered the mother.

The people of Longwang Island parted from life and death this time, it was very dangerous, and they were a little too excited, and they were a little too excited, and they tossed and turned before they gathered in the ship's cabin, and Liu Guan told Chongwen the details after leaving Fujiang Island.

Chongwen generally knew what happened before the Anointing Blood Bird ship went to Dragon King Island. After leaving Longwang Island, Liu Guan led the old brothers to take the old route and sailed directly to Wusongkou, hiding in Chashan, an uninhabited desert island outside the mouth. Aban Baijie secretly infiltrated the Baoshan Institute on a windy night, infiltrated the city in makeup, found his brother Bai Song, and quietly contacted Liu Mingshan, the commander of Zhenhaiwei.

In the name of inspecting the coastal defense of the Chongming Shaqianhu Institute, Liu Mingshan came to Chashan Island by boat and met with his brother Liu Guan. And told Liu Guan a big news, because the king of Yan went south, and there were signs of stupidity in the black tartars of Mobei, someone in the court secretly proposed to move the capital to Beijing, and Liu Mingshan, as a minister of Dakang, may have to go north to defend Liaohai.

Liu Guan also told his brother that Longwang Island was plotting against the country, and was preparing to make a big deal, overthrow all the ministers of the shogunate, and control the country in the hands of Kangshang. Liu Mingshan asked his brother to bring a message to Da Chuhai: If you want to keep Zhenhaiwei, a strong reinforcement on land, only a large number of pirates will attack Wusong, stir up the Dakang Haijiang, and make Yongji unable to leave him.

Chongwen frowned and said, "It's still too early for the merchant group to enter the Dakang coast now, I'm afraid that the group will complain." ”

Liu Guan said: "It's not okay for big stocks, it's always okay for small stocks to attack and disturb." Lao Chai and Wu Zhi still have a lot of comrades near Shuangyu and Lieyu, and I Longwang Island pays for it, and I don't need a business group to come forward. ”

Chongwen was noncommittal, looked up and said, "You go on, what happened?"

The second went to sea and said: "I said that if you let us attack Wusongkou, you can't let us use our bare hands, we want ships, cannons, and people, and we buy them with gold, not Zhenhaiwei in vain." My brother agreed to sell us 3 200 bird boats, 2 300 Haicang boats, all the ship's weapons and cannons are ready, and 20,000 catties **, 2,000 firecrackers, and the children's fire ropes are all equipped with the mother's equipment.

But he doesn't have people, I have to recruit them myself, Zhenhaiwei has fewer ships can be said to be in a storm, and it is impossible to say that there are hundreds of sailors at once. So I got a fleet and guns for 8,000 taels of gold, and then I started recruiting men everywhere, so I didn't get to Hirado until now, otherwise I would have returned two months ago. ”

Chong Wenqi said: "Now that the sea ban in Nanjing is so strict, you can't blatantly recruit pirates." ”
