Chapter 211 Stupid
Lost lamb?

Chen Mu was scrubbing his beard, ignoring the glare from Davega's eyes that almost burst into flames, and remained silent for a long time.Bishop Carneiro stood stiffly on one side of the long table with his arms outstretched, and Pereira's eyes led his head to swing from side to side three times.

bass.

He heard Long Junxiong who was standing behind him flick the knife with his thumb, snorted disdainfully at the soldier Davega, and raised his right hand to stop the general. Chen Mu frowned and asked Pereira and Canelo: "Would you like me?" I thought our relationship was close enough, but I actually know a little about your church."

Look, look, this extremely arrogant shame of a wise man has appeared again!
"If I ask you to change your beliefs and fall into the arms of my ancestors, you will probably think about drawing your sword and killing me?" Chen Mu pointed frivolously at Davega, shook his finger and said, "Relax, I will take Fran I will not treat you as a friend of a robot, and it is not rude to meditate, I am just thinking about whether I will join if your church does not have this Lord."

"In your belief, there was a great flood in the past that washed away sins. Your ancestors prayed to God and worshiped Buddha. The Almighty Lord gave you a big ship called Noah, which contained pigs, cattle, sheep, birds and fresh water. After seven days, you Survive and reproduce. Whenever you are lost, faith will guide you to find inner peace."

Chen Mu spoke very seriously, even stood up and took a deep breath, nodded without concealing his admiration, "Very good, this is a very good belief."

"Would you like to hear about my beliefs? It actually happened in the farther north of the land under your feet. There is a big river there. It is thousands of miles long and thousands of feet wide. This story also begins with the flood that submerged the world. When it burst, people said it was a dragon rolling between heaven and earth."

"Zhaoli suffers and lives are devastated. My ancestors did not worship anyone. They rowed Kyushu, dredged the river, strangled the dragon's head to make the flood work for me!"

"In our story, there is no need to worship gods and Buddhas. If the sky leaks, it will be repaired by itself, and the mountains will be blocked by descendants. The fierce sea will be filled day and night. People will sacrifice their lives to save others. If there is a chance—"

Chen Mu said to Bishop Carneiro: "If you have the opportunity, you should really go further north. There are countless ancestral halls and archways in every village and every city in Dahao Heshan. When you achieve Even if you die for something that ordinary people cannot achieve, your descendants will continue to worship it year after year, and your name and achievements will still be remembered by future generations after thousands of years."

"No one will forget you, just as you never forgot your ancestors."

In the silence, Davega couldn't understand what the pagan said with excitement, and he uttered a word softly, but it was understood by Chen Mu, which meant stupidity.

"That's not stupid, it's just stupid."

In Pereira's horrified eyes, the extremely irritable general of the Ming Dynasty in his eyes was uncharacteristically, but he nodded in agreement and smiled, "You will know what stupidity is in a while."

Chen Mu was interrupted, but he didn't get angry. He just sat down calmly, spread his hands and said, "I've explained the matter of faith. You have also explained the matter of entering Malacca trade. That is to say, if Chen doesn't join Your religion, our ships will not be able to dock in Malacca, and naturally there will be no way to obtain trade, is that what you mean?"

"I'm very sorry, General." Bishop Carneiro's complexion was still bad, but he still maintained his bishop's demeanor, "This is also a deal, we need to sprinkle the light of the Lord on an unlit land, if you refuse to be baptized , we cannot promise to obtain for you..."

Chen Mu waved his hands, still smiling, and said: "I understand, what you call trade is actually just one-sided trade. You obtained the power of Haojing trade through small means, but refused us to go to Malacca for trade. I thought it was a deal based on fairness, and I was a little disappointed, but it was expected."

"It's a pity, I didn't want to be aggressive."

Chen Mu shook his head, but turned his gaze firmly.

"Then my answer is, if the Ming people can't trade in Malacca, I will tell the emperor that you will receive the same treatment in Haojing. For three months, I will confiscate all your shops and ships in Haojing, and magnanimously Two blessing boats that can hold everyone are bestowed upon you, and it depends on your attitude to leave whether you put a living person or a dead body in the boat."

"Da Ming only cares about whether he can get a tariff draw, and doesn't care whether the taxpayers are Frangji or Japanese. And I will send people to Luzon tomorrow to invite the Frangji there. They don't seem to be the same as you The country, this is the best, I will invite them to come to the island to continue trade, and continue to find ways to enter Malacca for trade in the future."

"I know that your governor may want to use war to solve these problems. This is exactly what I want. As long as you start a war, the gate of Ming Dynasty will never be open to you. On the coast, the entire coastline of Ming Dynasty Only Hao Jing can let you dock."

"What's more, how many troops do you have in Malacca and India? Send those natives who are afraid of Ming Dynasty, then how many soldiers do you need to defeat my [-] men, [-]? Or [-]? Or even more."

"I have at least [-] banner troops and [-] warships ready to go, and I am ready to invite more generals to go to hell or defeat you. Even if Malacca cannot be captured, believe me, from now on, from Malacca to Nagasaki, no matter the official The army or the pirates will not allow any merchant ships flying your flag to pass, and Malacca will no longer be able to transport any cargo and Cruzado for you.”

"Friends, there is only one ship that can leave the port today. If the priest has recorded everything that happened today, you can go to the port and board the ship. Tell your governor in Malacca what happened here--it is to allow a few ships from The small boats of Ming Dynasty arrived in Malacca for trade; it was still a cost of losing everything east of Malacca to start a war with a lot of casualties and may not be able to win."

"If you want trade instead of war, you need to ensure Ming people get the best care in Malacca. How do you take care of my people and how I take care of your people."

Chen Mu stood up, with his hands stuck to the jade belt around his waist, and he flexed his neck in satisfaction, then turned his eyes to Davega who didn't understand a word from the beginning to the end.

"You know, I also think my people are very ignorant! In Tuen Mun, the people there were displaced because of Japanese pirates. I led a fleet to kill the Japanese pirates. Someone built a shrine for me there. It was very small, only half of the population. It is tall, and there are small general Chen and his servants carved in wood, and the clumsy craftsman carved nothing like it, but it says, General Zhaoyong Chen Gongci."

"They offer fruit and food incense every day. Although there are very few, although I can't eat them at all, my ignorant people believe that I am the patron saint of Tuen Mun. When they are in danger, I will lead the fleet to kill all the enemies, or To save their lives, or to avenge them, they are willing to give their little food."

"You are different. You are so stupid without a protective god. Your god is not working."

Chen Mu said the last sentence in Francophone. The thumb of his right hand opened the stringed pistol and put the flint dragon rod on it. While speaking, he pointed to Davega who was looking at Pereira inexplicably and helplessly. , "Pray for him, Father, the Lord is with you!"

boom!
With a sword out of its sheath and a bird in the air, Chen Mu waved the gunpowder smoke from his hands, and looked at the unrepentant corpse with disgust.

"It's stupid to interrupt when someone else is talking!"
