Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 230 Can stop children crying at night
The timid night in Sali was spent in Zhou Xin's fear.

He knew very well that the previous attack was not done by Wala, so the night attack was likely to happen again.

But luckily, everything is fine.

The accompanying Ming army officers and soldiers were very calm, patrolling in shifts and checking weapons and equipment. Everything was no different from their usual days.

On the other hand, the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs all had pale faces, and they spent last night in complete fear.

These people are really a burden.

Zhou Xin didn't want to take them with him, but there was no other way. Xia Yuanji and his people wanted to return to Daming as quickly as possible and deliver the news to Yingtian.

Taking this group of burdens with them, they probably won't be able to run very far and they will fall down no matter how far they fall. Should we wait for them or not wait for them?
Waiting for them, the message could not reach Yingtian in time.

Don't wait for them...

To put it bluntly, let alone someone ambushing and attacking, let's just say that the wild wolves on the grassland can kill them. It is useless to give them any weapons. They are just providing food to the wild wolves.

You can't expect them to do a disco for the wild wolves, right?
As noon approached, he saw the dust raised by the cavalry in the distance. Zhou Xin took a deep breath and adjusted his mood.

The journey from Hulanhuwenwen to Nanjing is at least three thousand miles. Even if we use the [-]-mile expedited method after entering the customs, it will take four days to get to Yingtian.

Before that, Zhou Xin could only rely on himself.

As for Tan Zhong...

Although his ability is not outstanding, it is definitely not a crotch puller.

But this time he came to the grassland to discuss mutual trade, not to fight, so Zhu Di only let Tan Zhong lead 2000 retinues.

It's not enough to fill the gap between Walajun's teeth.

"Who is the Inspector Zhou Xinzhou!?"

Just when Zhou Xin was thinking wildly, the Wala people on horseback had arrived not far away, and they shouted loudly before they even got in front of them.

Zhou Xin nodded slightly towards Tan Zhong, then held his head high and stepped forward slowly.

"The inspector Zhou Xin has met King Shunning."

Yes, the person who came was none other than Shunning King Mahamu, and not only him, but also Taiping and Tupolo, the three kings of Wala, also came.

"Zhou Xin didn't expect that King Shunning could come here in person, but I wonder if I can ask King Shunning to explain what it means to bring so many people here?"

Zhou Xin looked at the roaring Walajun with a stern tone in his tone.

"Inspector Zhou, don't get me wrong, we have no ill intentions." Mahamu did not sit on the horse and talk to Zhou Xin, but got off the horse and walked to Zhou Xin.

"The attack on the Ming officials at night was really not caused by us in Wala. In order to protect the safety of the Zhou Envoy and the Ministry of Household Affairs, we specially brought some more people here."

"I, Mahamu, promise that if Envoy Zhou wants to leave, we will never stop him, and as long as Envoy Zhou is willing, we can escort you all the way to the foot of the Great Wall."

"Of course, according to the rules, we are not allowed to cross the line. If we really need our Oara tribe to escort us, I hope that the inspector Zhou will explain to His Majesty the Emperor after he returns to the capital. We have no intention of crossing the line."

"Don't bother King Shuning." Zhou Xin's expression did not change, but the stern tone in his tone relaxed a lot.

"Shangshu Xiayuan Jixia has brought people back to Yingtian as quickly as possible. If there is no accident, we can reach the Great Wall today."

"In two or three days at most, Shangshu Xia will bring people over from the Great Wall."

"Instead of worrying about our safety, King Shuning should think carefully about how to explain what happened the night before yesterday."

"I hope... the situation in Yu'erhai will not reappear in this Shuangquanhai, or even suddenly lose temperature."

Mahamu was speechless after hearing this.

Not only Mahamu, but Mahamu was really worried that Zhou Xin would die here, so he specially brought 2 people to protect the safety of Zhou Xin and his party.

But now, Zhou Xin only used one sentence to reduce the momentum of more than 2 people by more than half.

Sometimes, a nightmare can really follow a person for a lifetime. Unless you can break through this nightmare, you will always be entangled by it.

For the Oara people, the intimidating power of the Jingguan in Yuerhai is far less than it was before, but it is still a nightmare for the Oara people.

As long as the Ming Dynasty and Wala continue to be hostile, or they are peaceful on the surface but secretly competing with each other like they are now, that Beijing Temple will always be a nightmare for the Wala people.

wrong……

That's a bit too much. The Wala people's nightmare has never been about the temple, but the founder of the temple.

Zhu Zhanhe.

This is really not an exaggeration, because not just anyone would dare to build a Jingguan of that scale.

Even if Zhu Zhanhe made the first move, with Zhang Fu in front and Mu Sheng in the rear, they would not dare to build the Beijing Temple with Zhu Zhanhe as the scapegoat, let alone other people.

Therefore, when the Wala people mentioned the temple at Yuerhai, what they were afraid of was not that temple, nor the fear of being built by the Ming army, but the fear of Zhu Zhanhe.

"I hope that Inspector Zhou will stay calm. We have already sent people to investigate. Once the results are found, we will inform you as quickly as possible and report to Yingtian."

Mahamu felt that his breath was stuck in his throat, but he still had to explain to Zhou Xin in a good manner.

"Before that, I hope Inspector Zhou will not be anxious and don't be deceived by the thieves. Otherwise, the only ones who will be injured will be Daming and Oarabu, and the thieves will see the joke."

"I don't have to worry about this for King Shuning." Zhou Xin was neither humble nor overbearing. Although his number was far less than that of Wala, he suppressed Mahamu in terms of momentum.

"As King Shunning said, the top priority right now is to investigate and deal with the so-called real culprit, so that the Ming Dynasty will not wrongfully accuse the Wala tribe."

"But if I can't find out, I can only report the truth to Your Majesty."

"Otherwise, even if I really want to believe in King Shunning, looking across this grassland, I really can't find anyone else."

"Thank you, Inspector Zhou, for his understanding of righteousness."

Mahamu was very angry, but he had to swallow his anger.

"Take off!"

"Yes!" Tuo Huan was also aggrieved, but he still stood up following his father's words.

"These 2 people are at your disposal. We must protect the safety of Inspector Zhou and Bo Xin Ning!"

"Yes!" Tuohuan felt even more aggrieved now.

"That's right!" Mahamu nodded slightly towards Zhou Xin. Just as he was about to leave, he thought of one more thing.

"Remember, let the soldiers patrol 300 meters away, and don't relax at night! But don't disturb Inspector Zhou, Uncle Xinning and others!"

"Yes!"

After saying that, Mahamu bowed slightly towards Zhou Xin and Tan Zhong, turned around and mounted his horse, and with Taiping and Tupolo, leading only a few hundred people, headed towards Hulan Huwenwen along the way they came.

Aggrieved is aggrieved, but it is useless to be aggrieved. We must first find out who attacked the officials and soldiers of Ming Dynasty at night, otherwise they will only become more and more aggrieved.

After all, they couldn't defeat Ming Dynasty.

……

During the confrontation between Zhou Xin and Mahamu, Xia Yuanji and his men galloped day and night, and finally arrived at the Great Wall after paying the price of losing a horse for everyone.

At the moment when he saw the Great Wall, Xia Yuanji only felt his body go limp.

After all, Xia Yuanji is just a civil servant. It is obvious that he, a civil servant, cannot support him riding a horse such a long distance and at such a fast speed.

If he hadn't been greedy and lived a relatively poor life, which made his health much better than those fat-minded officials, he probably wouldn't have been able to see the Great Wall.

However, even so, Xia Yuanji could not lead people back to the grassland to help Zhou Xin as he had originally planned, because he really couldn't ride the horse.

The garrison general of the Great Wall was also a sensible person. After receiving the news from Xia Yuanji, he immediately arranged for Babaili to rush to send the news to the sky. In addition...

The garrison general sent twenty people to "forcibly" escort Xia Yuanji back to Beijing.

Anyone who knows something about the situation knows how important Xia Yuanji is to Ming Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, even the officials from the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Xin, Tan Zhong, and the 2000 followers were not as important as Xia Yuanji alone.

Besides, the situation may seem tense, but it's actually not that tense.

Whether it was Xia Yuanji and Zhou Xin, or Tan Zhong who led the soldiers, they were actually not qualified to fight against Wala.

First of all, there is no direct evidence. If there is any, although fighting Wala privately is an overstep, there will basically be no punishment in the end, and there may even be rewards.

Secondly, they are not the ones who can make the decision.

Needless to say, people at the level of Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi, in addition to Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanhe, can also make the decision.

The rest of the people... can't.

-

Xiangzhou House, the former Royal Palace of Siam.

Zhu Zhanhe had no idea that such a big thing had happened on the grassland, but it was useless even if he knew, because he really couldn't necessarily guess who did it.

There were no clues, so he could only analyze the situation. Even Zhu Zhanhe could not think of anyone else except Wala.

At this moment, he was taking his younger brother to visit the former Siam Palace, preparing for him to choose a place to live in the future.

"Brother..." Looking at Zhu Zhanhe who was no different from usual, Zhu Zhanqi suddenly spoke.

"Although you haven't killed many people yourself, after all, so many people's deaths are related to you. Aren't you afraid?"

This was what Zhu Zhanqi was most curious about, especially when he saw his brother ordering to use white phosphorous eggs to burn Siam's supposedly invincible elephant soldiers into a pile of rubbish.

This curiosity followed him until it reached its peak when he saw the former Royal Palace of Siam, prompting him to ask.

"What are you afraid of? Retribution?" Zhu Zhanhe smiled.

"What's the use of retribution? According to Taoism, 'The opposite is the movement of the Tao, and the weak is the use of the Tao.' But who do you think in this world can touch me without being able to cure me?"

"According to Buddhist teachings, even eighteen levels of hell are not enough after death, but just listen to this statement and don't take it seriously."

"That's all nonsense. Do you believe that if you just pull someone over, I can burn a relic for him even if it's a pig?"

"Ah?" Zhu Zhanqi was confused.

Zhu Zhanhe looked at his younger brother and shrugged.

It's really not difficult to burn the relics. The calcium phosphate in the bones will liquefy and drip at temperatures exceeding 1670 degrees Celsius, forming crystals.

Isn't this Shirley?
