Chapter 284 Doubt

"I don't know." Zhao Tao said.

"Didn't you see it? Didn't you see it clearly?"

"No, they all wear masks, and they all wear a red mask, so they can't tell what they look like."

Ye Zhen fell into deep thought.

After asking some other details, Ye Zhen asked Zhao Tao to be sent back, and went next door to find Lu Chengze.

At this time, Lu Chengze had finished questioning the two tigers, and the two gave a pair of statements. Except for a few details that were slightly inconsistent due to different observation angles and focus points, everything else was the same.

That is to say, the two of them did not lie, they really met Japanese pirates and were rescued by the so-called Red Devil Ship.

"What is the Red Devil Ship?" Ye Zhen heard this word for the first time.

Lu Chengze also pondered: "In the past ten years, there has been a legend along the coast, saying that there is a red devil ship on the sea, and the people on board are not human beings, but spirits from the sea, who specialize in helping fishermen and fighting Japanese pirates... "

Under Lu Chengze's narration, Ye Zhen also gradually constructed a rough outline of the story in her mind: Ten years ago, some fishermen encountered a tsunami at sea, and just when they thought they would die, a strange red skull appeared in the wind and waves. The flag appeared, rescued them, and sent them safely beyond the wind and waves, and the people on the boat were all wearing red devil masks.

Thus, for the first time, the name of the Red Devil Ship spread to the ears of coastal residents.

Later, many times, when Japanese pirates ran amok or robbed fishing boats, they sometimes encountered red devil ships, and that was the beginning of the nightmares of Japanese pirates.

The speed of the Red Devil's ship was very fast, and the Red Devil's combat power was also extremely strong. The Japanese pirates often gave away their heads like chopping melons and vegetables.

Neither Ye Zhen nor Lu Chengze are real teenagers, nor are they uninformed country bumpkins, they both feel that the Red Devil Ship is not simple.

Ye Zhen endured and endured, but she couldn't hold back, and asked her own doubts in a low voice: "Is it possible that the red devil ship is someone from King Qi's lineage?"

In fact, Lu Chengze also had this kind of suspicion. After all, the Red Devil was very friendly to the fishermen, and he was particularly ruthless towards the Japanese pirates. This kind of inclination obviously made people feel that these people had a good impression of the fishermen of the Dayue Dynasty.

Generals die in a hundred battles, but this kind of death in a hundred battles is for the family, the country, and the people.

Therefore, the general who killed decisively and bloodied his knife was the one who had the deepest affection for the people.

It's just that under the circumstances that everything has not been confirmed, it is better not to give people hope easily in this kind of thing.

That's why Lu Chengze didn't let Ye Zhen know about the existence of the Red Devil Ship in advance, but who would have imagined that the people on Zhuangzi would actually encounter the Red Devil Ship? !
The appearance of this ship is so obvious, if it is Da Yue's ship, someone would have known about it long ago, but there is no news before, so it can be seen that this ship is not Da Yue's ship.

That's interesting: Where did this ship come from?How could it appear here?
Sanya is just one of the islands. In fact, there are countless islands on the sea from the land. Some islands have fresh water and fertile land. They are livable, and there may be people living there.

However, some islands have no fields and no fresh water. Such islands cannot be inhabited, so they may be uninhabited islands, or places where some Japanese pirates and pirates temporarily occupy.

This is the case on the island where the Japanese pirates hid before.

If the red devil ship came from a certain island, it would be difficult to find it: God knows which island it is?
Ye Zhen also frowned: This is not the time of the 21st century. If you want to find someone with satellite maps and various modern communication and investigation equipment, how can it be so easy to find someone by manpower?
However, there is one point that the two of them have a tacit understanding: Jiang Yunniang cannot be known.

For a woman whose husband and the whole family suffered collectively, after more than ten years, she has already accepted such a result.

Now if she is given a new hope, telling her that her husband's uncle and father-in-law may not be dead, but in the end it turns out that nothing happened, it would be a fatal blow!
Because of this, you must keep it secret in advance, but you can't stop searching: you must confirm whether your suspicions are true as soon as possible.

"Aze, when do you think we will go to sea? I can't wait! If they are not dead, where are they living?"

Ye Zhen was in high spirits, but Lu Chengze couldn't help pouring cold water on it: "Not only can we not let your mother know about this possibility, but we also cannot let others know about this possibility."

"Why?" Ye Zhen was stunned.However, a thought flashed in her mind, and she reacted.

The ten generals of Qi Wang's lineage collectively died for the country in search of Jiusui Jiahe, which made the late emperor completely relieved, but what if the ten generals of Qi Wang's lineage did not die?
Will His Majesty be worried that the suicide of all the old, young, women and children in King Qi's mansion will cause resentment from King Qi's ten generals?
Will His Majesty be worried that King Qi's Ten Generals will retaliate against the Dai Viet Dynasty?

Will His Majesty really trust the ten generals of King Qi's lineage again?
Thinking of this, Ye Zhen's back broke out in cold sweat: The hidden guards are all His Majesty's people. Although the leader is Lu Chengze, will the hidden guards who have received patriotic education tell His Majesty the situation in private? Woolen cloth?

Ye Zhen didn't dare to gamble.

Therefore, the dark guard cannot be used.

Then only the shadow guards can be used, and the shadow guards belong to Lu Chengze himself.

But how to find it?
Ye Zhen and Lu Chengze conspired...

Jiang Yunniang was very depressed: I have been busy for so long, and finally prepared a memorial ceremony, but it has not yet been done!

I don't know if my husband will blame me for being there... Jiang Yunniang couldn't help but shed tears as she thought about it, and she was so sad that she couldn't eat.

Grandma Chen is anxious: Madam has not been like this for a long time, why is it like this again recently?It's been a long time since I refused to eat.

When Ye Zhen got the news, it was already the next morning.

They looked at each other with Lu Chengze, and could only sigh.

Ye Zhen carefully cooked some light side dishes, which are convenient for eating in midsummer, and then took the food to Jiang Yunniang's room.

"Mother, here are a few light side dishes I cooked, as well as refreshing eight-treasure porridge, try it to see if it suits your taste." Ye Zhen's tone was cheerful and bright.

"Mother is not hungry, she can't eat." Jiang Yunniang forced a smile at her lost daughter, not wanting her to know what was on her mind.

Ye Zhen put down the food, walked over and hugged Jiang Yunniang's arm affectionately, and acted like a child: "Mom, but I'm hungry, can you eat with me? Just the two of us?"

These words successfully moved Jiang Yunniang's heart: From finding her daughter to now, she has never had a meal alone with her daughter!
"Okay." Although she had no appetite, Jiang Yunniang still agreed.

Ye Zhen hurriedly served Jiang Yunniang a bowl of cool eight-treasure porridge with mung beans and red beans, put some brown sugar, and sprinkled some sweet-scented osmanthus on top, and placed it in front of Jiang Yunniang.
