After tossing for a long time, when I returned to Chongming Island, the cottage and the shore had been basically cleared by Zheng He's Ming army, and the "Zheng" flag was floating everywhere in the cottage. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Ye Cheng and Zhong Qing did not go to see Zheng He first, but first found Huo Ran, Hu Sanxiao and Hua Niang in a side hall in the village.

"You have come at the right time, this brother will follow me wherever I go, whether he lives or dies, and he will never leave me half a step if he doesn't see you. When Huo Ran saw Ye Cheng coming back, he immediately seemed to be relieved, and pointed at Hu San with his finger and said helplessly.

Of course, Ye Cheng understood that Hu Sanxiao wanted Dai Sigong to treat Hua Niang, and he was afraid that he would break his promise, because he knew that Huo Ran had a close relationship with him, so he kept following.

"General Huo has worked hard, Brother Hu, why are you so hard? What I Ye Cheng said, I will definitely do it for you. Ye Cheng smiled bitterly.

"Then why don't you take me to see that Dai Lao'er?" Hu Sanxiao didn't trust Ye Cheng.

"Dai senior, he is gone. Ye Cheng told the truth.

"What!"

When Hu San laughed and heard this, he couldn't help but jump like thunder, rushed over with an arrow step, grabbed Ye Cheng's neck, and was about to hit him with a fist.

Ye Cheng didn't think about it, but said: "Brother Hu, don't be impatient, even if you open your brother's face at this time, it will not help, and you won't be able to cure Hua Niang's illness." ”

Hu San smiled viciously and said, "You lied to me, shouldn't you fight?"

Ye Chengzheng said: "I'm not lying to you, now that my master and Dai seniors are missing, I'm more anxious than you, but there is still a way to try it now." ”

"What method?" But there was a glimmer of opportunity, and Hu Sanxiao didn't want to let it go.

"Please Brother Hu follow Master Zheng and me to Sanfo Island, firstly, to eliminate bandits for the imperial court, and secondly, to rescue those children who have been taken captive. Brother Hu has not been able to make great achievements since he entered the Yipin Pavilion, but if he can do these two things this time, after he goes back, Lord Zheng will definitely invite us for merit and reward, and the emperor will be very happy, and at that time, we will ask the emperor to appoint the best imperial doctor in Tianfu to diagnose and treat Hua Niang, which is also a good strategy, right?"

"Fart, fart! Lao Tzu was originally a samurai of Yipinge, no closer to the court than you bastard, but I don't even want to see the emperor's shadow, but how can we let the emperor send the imperial doctor to treat us?" Hu San smiled and listened, and his anger still did not subside.

"Hu Sanxiao, don't forget, Brother Ye saved Lord Zheng's life, if you help the court to eliminate bandits, then the relationship is not comparable to you. Zhong Qing said beside him.

Hu San smiled and felt that there seemed to be some truth, and began to hesitate.

"Of course, if you have a better way, you might as well beat him up and see if you can cure your daughter-in-law's illness. Zhong Qing took the opportunity to add fuel and vinegar.

Hu Sanxiao stood stunned for a moment, finally let go of his hand, looked at the flower girl who was alone, and sat down on the chair dejectedly.

Ye Cheng felt guilty about Hu Sanxiao in his heart, and was even more worried about his master Lu Li and Dai Sigong, and immediately said: "General Huo Ran, Brother Hu, and Qing'er, you are here later, without further ado, I will go and ask Master Zheng when he will leave, the sooner we reach Sanfo Island, the better." ”

Ye Cheng turned around and walked out of the side hall, and then interrogated the patrolling soldiers, and learned that Zheng He was now in the Meng Wei Pavilion, so he walked straight away.

When Ye Cheng was about to walk into the main hall, he vaguely heard a voice from inside.

"Lord Qiqi, we have searched the entire island, but we have not found any trace. ”

"Well, I see, after I'm gone, you must also search carefully to make sure that he is not here. ”

Ye Cheng heard that the last voice to speak was Zheng He, and he didn't understand what they were looking for, so he paused and coughed outside.

Zheng He seemed to hear the sound outside, so he said loudly: "You go down first, I have my own arrangements." ”

Ye Cheng stood at the door, and after a while, he saw a person dressed as a deputy general hurriedly walking out, glanced at Ye Cheng, and bowed his head and left.

A trace of doubt flashed in Ye Cheng's heart, but he immediately walked into the main hall.

"Who did I think it was, it turned out that Ye Shaoxia was back, how about it, is there any news of the commander?" Zheng He greeted him with a smile, holding Ye Cheng's hand and asking for warmth.

Ye Cheng shook his head with a wry smile and said: "I have searched everywhere, but there is no trace, and I am really worried about their safety." ”

Zheng He looked very surprised, so he nodded and said: "Although I am not a martial artist, but the reputation of the drunken Taibai Lu Li old knight is admired for a long time, I want to be one of the six great knights in the rivers and lakes, he is extraordinary, who can hurt him? Ye Shaoxia don't have to worry too much, I will send someone to continue looking for them, maybe the old man Lu has already left first." ”

Ye Cheng knew that although Lu Li was not informal, he acted quite steadily, how could he suddenly disappear without any notice. But Ye Cheng just thought about it and didn't say the worry in his heart.

"Then thank you, Master Zheng. Ye Cheng said with a smile.

"Ye Shaoxia said this, I don't know if Shaoxia is coming now, but there is something to find Zheng?" Zheng He Wen Yan asked.

"I was about to ask Lord Zheng when he was going to leave for Sanfo Island. Ye Cheng took the opportunity to ask.

"Didn't I tell Ye Shaoxia that the army is outside, and it costs a lot of baggage, so the soldiers are fast, let the soldiers rest for one night today, and set off at dawn tomorrow. Zheng He replied.

Ye Cheng felt a little relieved when he heard this, and withdrew with his hands. He had just walked not far when he heard a woman's whimpering cry faintly coming.

Ye Cheng felt that the voice was very familiar, followed the sound, turned a house in the southeast corner, and saw a woman sitting there with his back to him, Ye Cheng recognized it as soon as he saw the back, this woman was Wei Rou, the daughter of the island owner Wei Chong.

Ye Cheng guessed that Wei Rou must be worried about his father, but he hesitated again, because this time he was the one who exposed Wei Chong's conspiracy and let his plan be exposed and escaped, and now if he stepped forward to persuade Wei Rou, I don't know if it was appropriate.

While hesitating, Wei Rou turned around and saw Ye Cheng, so she hurriedly stopped crying, wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief, stood up and straightened her clothes, and whispered with her cheeks crimson...... There you are. ”

Seeing this, Ye Cheng suddenly felt a little restrained, so he had to walk over and say with concern: "Miss Wei, your sword wound has not healed, it is best to recuperate." ”

Wei Rou smiled sadly and said, "Anyway, I'm already a person with no home and no parents, what's the use of recuperation?"

Ye Chengdao: "Miss Wei must not have this idea, although this cottage is occupied by Lord Zheng for a while, but when she returns to the imperial court, she will definitely give you an explanation." In addition, Wei ...... Lord Lingzun is only leaving temporarily, and you will meet one day. ”

"What if we meet? He won't listen to my daughter's advice. In fact, this has been the case since he was a child, and in his heart, those false reputations and the feeling of the stars holding the moon are the most important, and as for my daughter, it is dispensable. Wei Rou said quietly.

Ye Cheng didn't know what to say to comfort this always sentimental girl, but he could also deeply understand Wei Rou's helplessness and sorrow as a daughter, after all, meeting such a father could not be regarded as a lucky thing for anyone.

"Ye Shaoxia, I really don't know what to do. Maybe in your eyes, my father is indeed a heinous and bad person, but after all, he is my father, my dearest and only relative in this world, and I can't choose my own parents. Will you forgive me?I know what he did, but I still can't hate him, I just think he's pitiful, although the people he killed may be even more pitiful......" Wei Rou said, tears falling again, slowly becoming incoherent.

"Yes, we can't choose our parents...... We can't choose our own parents......" Ye Cheng muttered Wei Rou's words, he felt Wei Rou's helplessness and pain more at the moment, and how could he not be like this, if it was in the face of his father Zhu Di, should he hate or be grateful?

At a certain moment, it seemed that the air around the two of them had condensed, and their respective hearts seemed to have a junction, which made each other resonate and reverie. After all, it was Ye Cheng who first stabilized his mind, and then comforted Wei Rou and said: "Miss Wei, no matter what a person does, his children are his children after all, and no one can be qualified to force their children to hate their parents, unless they themselves are willing." So Wei Chong in your eyes, there is no need to be the same as in our eyes, he will always be your father. ”

"Thank you......" Wei Rou smiled for the first time.

"It's nothing, Miss Wei doesn't have to be sad, if you don't dislike it, it's better to go to sea with us and rescue those children who were sold to Sanfo Island by your father and others, so that it can be regarded as helping your father, and even if the court asks for the guilt, it will be able to alleviate the guilt." Ye Cheng said with a smile.

Wei Rou nodded vigorously, but became worried: "But I don't know any martial arts at all, wouldn't I only be able to help you if I went?"

Ye Cheng laughed when he heard this: "Do we still want you to charge into battle, you just sit firmly in the Chinese military tent with Lord Zheng." ”

Wei Rou smiled a little embarrassedly.

Ye Cheng said casually and seriously: "But Miss Wei, although you don't know martial arts, you are much braver than many people who know martial arts, when you block your father's stabbing sword, and when you tell me where the cabin is, your bravery surpasses many people." ”

Wei Rou was happy when she heard someone affirm herself so much, but she didn't know what to say for a while, she just looked at Ye Cheng's handsome and resolute face in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a lot of good feelings.

On this night, Ye Cheng tossed and turned alone in his room, although this may be the easiest day since he crossed the river to the island, but there are too many things that still bother him.

"Where did Master Lu Li and Senior Dai go, one of them was injured, the other didn't know martial arts, what should I do if I encountered danger? Where is Youling now? I haven't seen her since I met her in Meng Weige, and if such a little girl follows Hong Youtian like this, she will only learn more and worse, and it will be difficult to return. And where is Hong Youtian, the cunning and hateful enemy, now, and will he set off any more storms to harm the rivers and lakes......" Thinking about it, Ye Cheng finally thought of his father Zhu Di, and thought of what his mother had been chanting before she died.

"Mother, you keep telling me to find my father and recognize my father, but do you know that the fire that night was actually set by someone he found? Do you know what kind of person he is? On the day of the destruction of Yingtian City, I met him on the street of ruins, but in the end we passed by, and we were so strange. If you really knew that he was such a person, would you still let me recognize him when I was alive?" Ye Cheng pondered, his head became groggy, and finally let sleepiness break through the defense line and gradually fall asleep.
