Another Ming Dynasty officer and soldier formed a battle array, and the Malindi people finally realized it.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
"Gaza, why are these Qin people angry?"
Qiaolan suddenly exclaimed.
The group of guards he brought with him all drew out their swords, cold sweat dripped from their foreheads, and they all took a defensive posture.
Gaza is also in panic.
He understood the words of the person in front of him.
Like him earlier, the people of Ming Dynasty actually regarded the Divine Envoy of Balance as "Yuan Ren".
Gaza is well aware of the cause of the misunderstanding——
The appearance of the divine envoys is really too similar to those of the Yuan people.
After decades, Gaza can be "recognized at a glance", let alone these Ming people who took over the world from the Yuan people.
But it's not that late now.
The identity of the divine envoy has long been beyond doubt.
He suddenly took two steps forward...
But he heard the sound of drawing a sword "噌噌噌噌", which frightened him to stop.
Gaza raised his hands in the air, knelt down again, and shouted: "The noble envoy of the Ming Dynasty is Ming Cha!"
"Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings!"
"The envoy of God and others are not Yuan people. I can make an oath in the name of the true God!"
"If they were Yuan people, how could they dare to board the ship?"
Discourse on this.
Wang Jinghong, who was beside Zheng He, sneered: "Are they the remnants of the Yuan family? Can we still recognize them?"
"The Yuan family died after being passed down for several generations, and the heavens were disgusted with their virtues. Now I have the Ming Dynasty to bless the world..."
"When I was sent as an envoy to the West, I also saw that the Yuan clan members were incomparable, but they didn't do much!"
"As long as you explain your origins, return to the court with us, and wait for our fate, my Majesty, Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty, will be benevolent and grant your people a permanent overseas residence, and it will be possible to divide the territory!"
Wang Jinghong didn't boast.
Just now, Fei Xin reported the situation, and the eunuchs quickly hit it off.
Since the Ming Dynasty, the journey to Malindi has gone through a lot of hardships and took a whole year.
The sky is high and the road is far away, so there is no point in killing all these Yuan people.
On the contrary, the purpose of this trip is to show the great kindness of the Ming Dynasty.
If the remnants of the Yuan clan were allowed to return to the court and submit to the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty would grant them the title of land in a foreign country, it would be a "free" transaction.
Since the Ming Dynasty has gained a generous holy name and gained an extra territory overseas, why not do it?
This can be regarded as a great feat of the Yuan Dynasty, opening up territory and expanding territory, right?
North Korean and Chinese civil servants will definitely write a special note about this matter.
At the same time, in the eyes of everyone, this is also the best choice for Yuan people.
And the most important thing is...
"Since you took the initiative to board the ship, you must be an elder in your Yuan clan and you have the intention of showing kindness to us!"
"I can take the initiative and ask a few of you to return and explain the details, and then invite the person who can really take charge of the matter to come!"
Having said this, Wang Jinghong paused again, "But before that, I only ask you to wait one last time!!"
"Seeing the sacred ceremony entrusted by the Ming Dynasty is like meeting His Majesty the Emperor!"
"If you wait to kneel, you won't kneel!!"
Toasts and fine drinks are all put on the table.
The "Deren" of the Ming Dynasty is fully displayed...
You see, we don't mean to make things difficult. As long as you obey, you can still get rewards.
From now on, I will no longer be frightened and keep my head hidden.
The officers and soldiers gathered on the deck also shouted at this time——
"Kneel down!"
"Kneel down!!"
"Get on your knees!!!"
Not long after the dynasty changed, these officers and soldiers still remember their grandfathers' hatred for the evil Yuan clan.
It's just that they were born too late and did not have the glory of conquering the world with Zhu Yuanzhang.
But now, in this foreign land overseas, there is an opportunity to show off the remaining energy and show off one's power.
One by one, it was like pouring down three large bowls, and the breath was rapid and feverish.
Gaza looked pale.
How can the envoy of God kneel down to this Ming Dynasty man?
He still wanted to explain.
However, Tiaoyu has taken a step forward.
In front of Wang Jinghong, Zheng He waved his hands confidently, and the voices of the officers and soldiers on the deck gradually dispersed, and the flags and drums stopped.
Tiaoyu sneered and glanced around: "Such a lax military order, the Ming Dynasty is nothing more than this!"
"Presumptuous!" Another armored general stepped out. His name was Tang Jing, the Commander-in-Chief of the Western Army. "Don't you still know how your Yuan clan was defeated? How dare you slander me, the Great Tomorrow Soldier!!"
Tiaoyu ignored him.
Because Tiaoyu has already figured out that the real person in charge is this middle-aged man without a beard: "Why do you call us Yuan people?"
Zheng He said: "What's the reason? You are born with your appearance and bones, how can you fake it?"
Tiaoyu asked again: "Can't there be humans in this world with similar skeletons to Yuan Ren?"
"Now that things have happened, you still want to quibble?" Zheng He didn't understand.
They have been tolerant, but this Yuan man is still messing around.
Tiaoyu said: "Then let me ask you, are the horses in Africa...that is, in this coastal city-state, the same as those in the Ming Dynasty?"
"So what?"
"Then why are horses able to approach each other even though they are thousands of miles apart, but not humans?"
Tang Jing took over and snorted coldly: "There are good and bad foals, and a horse sage can tell the grade and type of a horse at a glance. You are a foal to us, and I am a horse sitter to you!"
What else can I say?
Zheng He no longer gave him a chance. He took another step forward, pointed at the pattern on the chest of Tiaoyu's clothes and said: "That's enough, I've said all the nice things! The 'Taoist Tai Chi Diagram' on your chest has already spoken.
Why are you waiting, why waste your time and breath with us anymore!!"
"When we were sent as envoys to the West, we saw that most of the countries in Southeast Asia were Muslim and Buddhist; only a very small number of expatriates from the former Song Dynasty mixed Taoism for worship."
"As you go further west, there is no trace of Taoism anymore, but you have the Yin-Yang Tai Chi pattern embroidered on your chest. There is no need to continue arguing about the origin of Taoism, right?"
The words fell.
I thought those dozen Yuan people would be speechless.
But what they didn't expect was that their faces became ecstatic, as if they were crazy.
One of the children even exclaimed, stepping forward and pointing to his chest: "Do you know this sign? Do you really know it?"
Zheng He frowned, but still nodded.
However, they saw a dozen Yuan people gathered together, constantly speaking "Mongolian" that they did not understand -
"Sure enough, sure enough!"
"All our suspicions were confirmed!"
"Our lord Ji-Jiang indeed came to that ancient eastern country and bestowed grace and the secrets of law!"
"If you listen to what they call 'Taoism', this Tao... what else could it be? It must be the Tao of my lord, Balance!"
Zhou Wangshan took a deep breath and said, "Tiaoyu, let's reveal the truth to them!"
Before jumping fish could speak.
Zhou Ruoyu had already taken the lead: "I'll do it!"
He turned around and looked back, recalling in his mind the serious looks of Wu and his third sister, who looked serious but were actually fierce:
"If we are Yuan people, what can we deny?"
"But the fact is..."
"You are ignorant and forgetful, betraying the balance!"
"Balance?" Someone muttered silently, not knowing what it meant.
The boy patted the mark on his chest and said, "Yes, Balance, this is the mark of Balance, and it is also the existence that you call 'Tao'!"
"We are not those Yuan people, but we come from the 'new world' that is unknown to you."
"Fourteen years ago, our Lord came in equilibrium, bestowing blessings on the world, spreading light, ordering the chaotic land, and making the suffering people happy. This is the new world of the Kingdom of Joy."
"And the Lord of Balance is the only true god in the world, the embodiment of all laws, rules and mysteries in the world!"
"Your ancient country in the east has been passed down for dozens of generations and has endured for a long time. It is the legacy and nurturing of the laws and mysteries given by our Lord."
"only……"
"Maybe because you and others committed sins and offended the true God, you became a people abandoned by God..."
"The balanced will is swallowed up by the long river of time and gradually forgotten!"
"Also half a year ago, my lord gave a prophecy that you will sail from a long distance, so you will lead our waiters and servants to come here before the end of the month!"
"This is your last chance to seek redemption and forgiveness!"
"Now, do you understand?"
Zhou Ruoyu was very organized, because they had made many speculations about the Ming Dynasty in the past few days.
Now that the guesses have been answered one by one, and all the clues combined, the truth is ready to come out.
Everyone on the deck was stunned.
New world?
Lord of Balance?
The only true God in the world...
What is this?
But if you want to refute, you have no way of saying it, because the logic is in the hands of the other party, and the only amount of information they have is Taoism.
Zheng He was also in a daze about this.
It's not that he is superstitious, but that this era fears ghosts and gods.
Zheng He's original surname was "Ma", but he was later given the surname Zheng by Zhu Di, who was a descendant of the dragon; and his family has believed in Islam for generations.
This was also the reason why Zhu Di sent envoys to the West with him as the leader.
The Arabs in overseas countries have the same origin as Islam.
In addition, due to unpredictable weather conditions when traveling overseas, the Ming Dynasty prayed to all the gods it could.
Zheng He received the Buddhist Bodhisattva ordination.
Similarly, before his first mission, he received ordination at the Taoist Chaotian Temple in Yingtianfu (Nanjing).
The Taoist priest of Chaotian Palace once gave him several admonitions, and all of them came true during his first mission to the West, and the danger was averted.
After returning to the court, Zheng He asked His Majesty to build a palace, title him, and erect a monument.
at the moment.
The determination of Tiaoyu and others, as well as the strange appearance since they met, made him suspicious.
Of course there are countless liars in the world, but it is impossible to achieve the unity of will and subtle expression of these dozen people.
Not to mention there are children among them.
"Master, please make your judgment!" Wang Jinghong also looked confused and couldn't make up his mind.
However, another eunuch came and reported: "Sir, you must not listen to evil words and mislead the public!"
"In the chaotic times of the late Song Dynasty and the early Yuan Dynasty, Quanzhen Taoist Qiu Chuji was active in the north, causing Taoism to merge and flourish."
"Later, Zhengyi followed the Quanzhen confluence method in the south and revitalized Longhu Mountain, which also connected with the Yuan clan."
"Among the senior officials of the Yuan clan, there are many who have converted to Taoism and have heard the true Dharma."
"Taoism advocates living in seclusion and traveling around the world."
"During the great prosperity of the early Yuan Dynasty, some high-ranking officials from the clan took off their armor and traveled around, visiting foreign countries overseas and settling down to take root. This is not impossible!"
"After hearing that the Yuan clan collapsed, they naturally had to be careful and make up an explanation to confuse the public!!"
Trace the antecedents.
The fog seemed to be blown away instantly by the sea breeze.
The commander Tang Jing also heard the reason and said angrily: "How dare you confuse the public with your evil words! Take them down and put them in prison together with Su Qianli!"
There was a great movement of officers and soldiers on the deck.
Also at this time.
Gaza stood up angrily and shouted: "Your Highness, protect the envoys of the gods. The people of Qin have blasphemed the true God and the envoys of the gods, and will be met with disaster. The time has come for us to show our piety!"
When Qiao Lan heard this, his face was shocked. He was panicked and frightened, but he also knew that he must not change sides at this time.
He may have to sacrifice his life in exchange for the prosperity of Malindi.
He smiled bitterly and looked back at the land, thinking to himself: "After this, wouldn't my father get his wish, or maybe he will be blessed with the grace of immortality?"
But things have come to this, and he has no choice.
Shout out——
"Protective Angel!"
"When the true God comes, these hateful and despicable Ming people will be punished and annihilated by God!!"
"You and other relatives and family members will also be blessed!"
Qiao Lan also pulled out the broken blade from his ribs and took the brunt of the attack, guarding Zhou Ruoyu.
When a group of guards saw that someone as noble as a prince was so dedicated, their blood surged up and they howled like ghosts and wolves——
"Come on, I will kill a few before I die and sacrifice them to the true God!"
"Hahaha, those who dare to blaspheme the true God will have their souls corroded by the endless sea water and turned into nothingness when they die!"
The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were also shocked.
Unexpectedly, they were willing to tear themselves apart rather than surrender to the Ming Dynasty. They were not afraid of life or death.
Zheng He frowned and said, "Even if I don't think about you and yourself, don't you think about these slaves who have been deceived by you and are loyal to you?"
"If I lead the Western General Army to land and be bombarded by more than a hundred treasure ships and cannons, all your people on the shore will be destroyed."
"Even if there are a few remnants left, who will be loyal to you? I'm afraid I'd rather have you skinned and eaten!"
Tiaoyu and others were shocked.
They clearly revealed the truth, but this Ming man was so stubborn that he refused to let anyone know.
The pressure of jumping fish is huge, and the dozen or so people around him are monks from the Temple Mount, the mainstay of the Kingdom of God.
If he is damaged here, even if he dies, he may not be able to receive forgiveness from our true lord God after death.
Not to mention...
Zhou Ruoyu!!
The judge who climbed the mountain was his father;
The witch, the chief judge, and the deputy chief judge are all his brothers and sisters.
Regardless of what the punishment will be after death, Tiaoyu cannot explain to these people first of all; he only feels that his soul is torn apart, and he will be reincarnated in guilt and pain after being annihilated!!
Tiaoyu only regrets that he didn't pray for Zhou Ruoyu in the first place and took Zhou Ruoyu with him when my master and the wizard left.
beside him.
The faces of Zhou Wangshan and others also turned waxy, and they had no masters.
And the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were pressing forward step by step, making the encirclement smaller and smaller.
Qiao Lan shouted: "Listen to my command, and I will cut off a few heads even if I die!"
But I heard the crowd of onlookers in the distance switching to Arabic and shouting to Ma Huan, Fei Xin and others——
"Your Majesty, be careful, Prince Malindi will fight to the death! What he speaks is Semitic, only we can understand it!"
Qiaolan stared angrily, recognized the man at a glance, and roared angrily: "Gulal of Mogadishu! You will not die a good death, and your country of Mogadishu will be annihilated by God's punishment!"
"Hahahaha, Your Highness, I think you will die first!"
Ma Huan and others immediately translated the reminder.
The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty also adjusted their formations, placing the shield-raising guards in front.
However.
What no one expected was...
A childish voice appeared, and he took a step forward, breaking away from Qiao Lan's protection.
There was a ferocious look on Zhou Ruoyu's childish face, and he roared -
"I am the one who has been given 'immortal life' by my Lord Kung Fu!"
"I will live for more than two hundred years, how can I die here, in the hands of the Ming people who have blasphemed the true God and been abandoned by the true God?!"
He held his chest up, raised his head, and opened his arms.
If this scene were transformed into the bow of a ship, it would be a world-famous painting of "King of the World".
Zhou Ruoyu tilted his head slightly again and shouted——
"Brothers Heping, have you forgotten the will of our Lord Heping?"
"My Lord has a balanced understanding of everything in the world, so how can he not know our situation here?"
"This must be Him;"
"It is the true God; the trials and tribulations he has sent down to our people!"
"Anyone who is close to balance must also look at it with balance."
"Anyone who betrays the equilibrium will also be betrayed by the equilibrium!"
"Strengthen your heart and soul—"
"With me, shout His name!!"
The expressions of the group of people were shocked, with a flash of shame disappearing, and then turning into fanaticism in an instant.
They stepped out one by one, stood in front of the Malindi people, and shouted towards the sky——
"My lord is above..."
"Praise you, praise balance!"
"Please send down the divine punishment of annihilation to this blasphemer, so that the door to the afterlife will no longer receive their spirits..."
"Balance, balance!!"
"Balance exists among all things!!"
Maybe I am a sheep, and my whole body is weak and aching. I am almost crying when I finish writing this chapter. I ask my Lord to bless me and keep disasters and diseases away from me!!
