Borrow the day to change the day

Tang Daxuan, Gu Mancang and Houzi left Shengjing for the fields outside the city.

Along the way, when there were fewer passers-by, Gu Mancang finally couldn't hold back and said, "Why don't we run away and take this opportunity to run back to Daming."

"No, I haven't found my brother yet." Tang Daxuan walked in front, and when he heard Gu Mancang's words, he turned around and denied.

"Brother, I'm anxious for my brother. What I mean is to find your brother and run together, how about it?" Gu Mancang said shyly, remembering that he also had an older brother named Tang Ao.

"Don't think about running away, we have to report back to the mansion every day. Besides, with our two legs, can we run out of Jianlu's control area?" Monkey shook his head to persuade him, he thought it was unrealistic.

"Then why, don't you pretend to be a grandson in Fangou's mansion every day, just looking forward to a day when you can move freely?" Gu Mancang looked at the monkey dissatisfied and said.

Tang Daxuan looked back at Gu Mancang again, and said bitterly: "Pretend to be a grandson? I pretend so much, you don't want to please that Fan Gou, every time I put out this old face to flatter him, thinking about it Ashamed of my ancestors."

The other two were silent when they heard this.Previously, relying on the strength of Gu Mancang, the three of them survived that period of hard work.

Now, relying on Tang Daxuan's groveling, the three of them had another day of free action.

After a while, the monkey asked, "Daxuan, if you find your brother, have you thought about what to do next?"

Tang Daxuan obviously thought about it, he replied to the monkey: "I said that he knows how to cast cannons, let Fan Gou get the eldest brother out first."

"It's unrealistic. What if Fan Gou goes to sue Jianlu first, or asks some questions about casting cannons first?" Monkey shook his head disapprovingly.

While talking, a few wild dogs suddenly rushed out of a small forest next to them, without barking, they just stared at them with fierce eyes.

When Gu Mancang saw him, relying on his size, he barked his teeth and claws like crazy for a while, and the other two also picked up stones on the ground and threw them, only to scare them away.

The monkey watched the group of wild dogs sneaking into the woods, and sighed: "They are all used to eating human flesh, and they want to eat us."

Tang Daxuan also bitterly said: "I don't have any guys on hand, or I'll kill them for meat."

After he finished speaking, he asked again: "Monkey, what do you think should be done?"

The monkey was silent for a while before replying: "Actually, in my opinion, escaping is unrealistic. Liaodong was slaughtered by Jian captives and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. It was impossible to escape with only two legs and a lack of food. There is only one hope..."

"Take Fan thief as a hostage and take him away?" Gu Mancang couldn't help expressing his thoughts when he heard this.

Tang Daxuan was taken aback by his bold suggestion, is that okay?

"Fan Thief's kung fu is not low, I'm afraid we won't be his opponent." Monkey also shook his head in denial.

"What are you afraid of? The loyal servants of his family were either killed by Jianlu or the Ming army. As long as we see the right time to strike, we can keep them safe." Gu Mancang became more confident as he spoke.

Tang Daxuan didn't agree very much either, he said to Gu Mancang: "Don't think that he trusts us on the surface, but he is actually on guard against us. Not only can we not enter many places in the mansion, but now he has sent us out to find the person who made the cannon. But they are only given dry food that is too little for one meal, and they have to go back home every day to know."

When Gu Mancang heard this, he sighed. The prerequisite for his method must be that Fan Thief trusts them, and it can only succeed if there is no precaution.

"Unless we find the person who cast the cannon and make this contribution for him, it is possible to gain his trust." Tang Daxuan immediately added.

After hearing this, the monkey's heart moved, and he hesitated to speak, but finally he didn't say anything.But because he was at the end, the other two didn't see it.

At this time, when we reached the field, there were many Han people in ragged clothes working in the field.

The three of them looked at each other, walked over to the supervisor of Jianlu, took out their badges, nodded and bowed their heads to explain the reason, and after getting their consent, they went to the group of Han people and asked loudly in Chinese if they knew who could make cannons.

As they got closer, Tang Daxuan saw that the group of people were all skinny and dying of hunger, but he looked at the three of them with hatred.

He sighed helplessly, took out his share of food from his arms, and said, "Whoever wants to know the whereabouts of a man named Tang Ao, I will give him his share of food."

The eyes of the group of people turned to the food in his hand in an instant, staring at it motionless.It's a pity that no one spoke, which meant that none of them knew Tang Ao's news.

Houzi looked at the group of people, thinking that if he got to this point, would he not be able to hold on and explain his identity to Jianlu in exchange for stuttering?

After a while, the three reluctantly left the group.When walking a long distance, the monkey with sharp ears heard someone in the group saying: "When the king master arrives, it will be the time when this group of Han thieves will bestow their heads."

"It seems that the news of Master Wang's victory has spread throughout Liaodong." Monkey said suddenly.

Gu Mancang turned to look at the monkey, a little curious why he said this suddenly.

So the monkey said what he had just heard.Tang Daxuan on the side heard it, and suddenly realized: "No wonder Jianlu couldn't find the person who cast the cannon. It turns out that other Han people are just like us, and they have hope for Master Wang. Now let us Han slaves also come out to look for it. I thought it would be closer to the Hannu."

When the monkey heard this, he nodded secretly in his heart, isn't it because there is that hope!

The large-scale appearance of the Mongolian Tartars and the beginning of food restriction were all due to the victory of the Ming army.

Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.The idle chatter of the Jianlu people was heard by the Han slaves who understood the language, and the news quickly spread, giving these Han people in Liaodong a hope, looking forward to the early arrival of Master Wang.

With this hope, Han people with a little sense of shame will not betray their dignity to Jianlu and betray their ancestors.

The three of them stood up at the same time, looking to the southwest where Daming was, wondering when they would see the fiery red shirt.

In the past, I looked down on those military leaders somewhat.But now, they are extremely looking forward to their appearance.

What they didn't expect was that the hope of the Hannu in Liaodong was severely hit not long after, thinking that the victory of the Ming army was just a flash in the pan.

Tang Daxuan and his companions searched for many days, but there was no news of his eldest brother, and his mood fell into a trough.

But someone from the capital just happened to be laughing because someone else was in a low mood.

After laughing, he said: "Although those missionaries are respectful to me on the surface, they must have been cursing me, the instigator, as Satan the devil."

Xu Guangqi looked at him, shook his head speechlessly, and said, "Master Hou, let's get down to business."
