Chapter 785 Determination
"Tomorrow?!" Ji Gang was taken aback, "Is tomorrow a good day?"

"What do we still believe in the almanac?" Yuan Jiang said in a muffled voice, "It's better to hit the sun than to choose a date. It's a bit late today. Let's hurry up and prepare. I think tomorrow will be it!"

"Okay!" Ji Gang thought about it. In the past, before every action, Mr. Zhuang had to make serious calculations. What happened was that he was ruined and exiled overseas, and he himself died. "Ok, deal!"

.

As soon as Yuan Jiang announced Ji Gang's plan, the atmosphere on the island changed.The reason why it was in a mess before was nothing more than a broken jar in despair.Seeing hope now, the officers and soldiers have regained their spirits... Although the so-called "South China Sea Jianbang" has not yet been written, even if it is completed, it is just a Yelang Kingdom far away in the world, but there is no way out for these in China For some people, this little hope is enough.

Seeing the anger on the faces of the soldiers, Yuan Jiang took advantage of the situation and announced that Ji Gang would hold a wedding tomorrow—to marry Xu Miaojin, the number one beauty of the Ming Dynasty!It even pushed the atmosphere of the island to the peak!Everyone needs a happy event to be lively and lively, not to mention that Ji Dudu married Zhu Di's concubine, so everyone is even more honored and lucky!

After the joy was over, a practical problem posed before the eyes of all the soldiers... On this ruined island that lacked food and clothing, and didn't even have a piece of red cloth, how could we hold a wedding for Dudu Ji?Everyone is worried.

Just as he was worried, an islander who had been arrested for hard labor passed by carrying a load.

"Hey, old man." Seeing him, Xu Ying asked casually, "You live on the island, what should you do if you want to drink? And where can you get needles and thread?"

"Go back to the master," the old man replied tremblingly, "Eighty miles east of the sea, there is a mud town. We catch fish, and we will go to the town to sell them. If we sell them for money, we can buy what we need."

"Oh, it's not far away." Xu Ying said in a muffled voice, "Then let's send someone to the town to buy it!"

"Hahaha!" After hearing Xu Yingxian's words, everyone burst into laughter.

"What, is my idea stupid?" Xu Ying asked angrily.

"It's so stupid!" A thousand households laughed: "I said, Lao Xu, you are so honest! What are we doing now? We need to buy something when we are short of it? It's not ashamed to say it out!"

"That's right!" Everyone roared with laughter: "We are not officials, but bandits! We have to look like pirates! Burning, killing, and looting is what we do!"

"That's right." Xu Ying scratched his head first and smiled, "I didn't turn the corner! I just bought a fart and robbed his mother!"

When it was said that they were going to rob, everyone became excited and clamored to fight!But there is no need for so many people. In the end, a lottery was drawn to decide whether to stay or not. Half of the winners boarded the boat and set off, and the rest prepared for the wedding on the island!
"Let go of the robbing! We are short of everything!" On the pier, the officers and soldiers staying behind yelled at the people on board: "Don't rob the money, we don't need it!"

"Understood!" The officers and soldiers on the ship... should be said to be pirates now, laughed and left in response.

.

Xugong Temple was built on the hillside of Xugong Island, with cliffs above and the only path below leading to the military camp. It was an excellent place of detention.The family members of Xu Miaojin and Wang Xian were imprisoned here. Ji Gang attached great importance to them, and sent more than a hundred men with strong martial arts skills to guard them... Because of Wang Xian, those guards gave Wang Xingye and the others a lot of trouble, especially Hou Shi, probably because of his annoying face, was often punched and beaten, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

At noon that day, just because she was eating, she muttered: "It's rice soup again, I'm going to starve to death..." Hou's rice bowl was kicked over, and the guard slapped her to the ground. Get a fat beating.

Tired from the beating, the guards went out to bask in the sun. Wang Gui hurriedly got up to check Hou's injuries, but she pushed him away and scolded angrily: "Stay away from my old lady, I'll spend eight lifetimes with you!" Blood mold!"

"Hey..." Wang Gui looked apologetic, and just as he was about to comfort Mrs. Hou, the old woman over there quit and sneered, "Wang Gui's daughter-in-law, you were the one who begged for nothing to come back! This one?!"

"I..." Hou couldn't lift her head up in front of her mother-in-law, and muttered in a low voice, "I mean Wang Xian, it's unlucky to get involved with him..."

"Why didn't you talk about it when you got in touch with him?!" The old lady became even more angry: "Where did the glory and wealth come from all these years? It's not earned by Xiaoer with his life! Don't think I don't know, your brothers, Playing the banner of Xiao Er in Hangzhou City to be domineering! Pick up the bowl to eat, put down the chopsticks and scold your mother! What are you!"

"I..." Hou lowered his head to his chest, and muttered in a low voice, "I'm just talking casually..."

"Okay, okay," Wang Xingye frowned and said, "What time is it, let's not say a few words." He sighed, looked at the compartment and said, "Speaking of getting involved, Xu Zhenren is really hurt. We're tired..."

"Yes." The old lady said with red eyes; "What a good girl, don't think about it..." They have already heard that Ji Gang is going to marry Xu Miaojin tomorrow!
Everyone couldn't help feeling dejected, even Hou Shi secretly sighed, if it was unlucky, Xu Miaojin was really unlucky...

.

In the eyes of Ji Gang and his group, Xu Miaojin was much more noble than Wang Xian's family, so she was locked up in the main hall of Xugong Temple, and Zheng Xiu'er, as her maid, was also locked up together.Now they have heard Yuan Jiang's announcement that Ji Gang will marry Xu Miaojin tomorrow!

After learning of the thunderbolt, Zheng Xiu'er was filled with grief and indignation. When she thought of her fairy-like master being defiled by wild beasts, Xiao Bai Cai's tears flowed down her cheeks.

On the contrary, Xu Miaojin looked as usual, kneeling in front of the mottled clay sculpture of Xugong Temple, chanting scriptures softly and intently.

"Master..." After Xu Miaojin finished reading a passage, Zheng Xiu'er couldn't help but said anxiously: "Aren't you in a hurry?"

"Is it useful to be anxious?" Xu Miaojin smiled slightly, which can rejuvenate the earth.

"It's useless..." Zheng Xiu'er said with a bitter face, "Is there really no other way?"

"No." Xu Miaojin shook his head, and said calmly: "I can't reason with those robbers, I know this in Tianxiang nunnery."

"Master..." Zheng Xiu'er recalled that day in Tianxiang Nunnery, the master's reaction was still very intense, and compared with the indifference now, some bad thoughts came to her mind.He hurriedly said: "Don't you think too hard?!"

"Don't worry, I can think about it." Xu Miaojin said with a self-deprecating smile; "On the way to be escorted, I thought that in just a few months this year, I fell into the wrong hands twice. If this is not a calamity in fate, what? What does that count?"

"I didn't believe in fate before." Xu Miaojin looked at Zheng Xiu'er and said softly, "I wanted to control my own destiny, so I disobeyed the emperor's will... But this is exactly my destiny."

"Master..." Zheng Xiu'er's eyes were blurred with tears. Is there anyone more trustworthy than her in this world?It wasn't a trick of fate, how could she experience so many tragedies?
"The ridiculous thing is that I have been obsessed with it for ten years, thinking that I was fighting against fate!" The self-deprecating color on Xu Miaojin's face became more and more intense: "This time I fell into the enemy's hands again, and I realized that I might be wrong... ..." As she spoke, she looked up at the blurred clay puppet on the altar, and she could vaguely see that it was a general sitting upright holding a scroll.Looking at this old general portrait, Xu Miaojin's tears came down: "Until I was escorted to the island and locked up in this temple, I completely believed in fate!"

"Master..." Zheng Xiu'er also cried into tears. She knew that the statue on the altar was Xu Miaojin's father whom she had never met!
Xu Da's god statue is dilapidated, but his eyes are intact, looking at his daughter kneeling in front of him kindly... Xu Miaojin also looked at his father in a daze, and said with tears in his eyes: "Fate arranged all this, but I believe this is just a good-natured trick! On this island named after my father, with the blessing of my father's god, we will definitely be able to turn bad luck into good luck!"

"Who will come to save us?" Zheng Xiu'er asked this sentence, a name popped up in her mind, and blurted out: "Wang Xian..."

"..." Xu Miaojin's heart trembled when he heard this name, and he said with firm eyes: "He has already saved me once, if this time can..." Xu Miaojin said, her face turned red like a lantern, and her voice was trembling: "so I……"

Seeing Xu Miaojin's shy look, Zheng Xiu'er's heart tightened, and she asked with mixed feelings: "What are you doing?" She is also a person who has been there, how can she not see the strangeness of the master in the past few months?

"Just..." Xu Miaojinyu's face flushed, her red lips moved, and she couldn't say what was in her heart even though she tried her best.In the end, he had no choice but to say vaguely: "Accept the arrangement of fate..."

"Oh..." Zheng Xiu'er breathed a sigh of relief, but then hurt herself and said, "Hey, what kind of fuck is it?"What does it have to do with me...'

The two masters and apprentices were thinking about their own thoughts, and they were silent for a moment. Zheng Xiuer suddenly thought of another possibility, and asked in a trembling voice: "Master, what if he can't come?"

"Then I'll make conditions for Ji Gang," Xu Miaojin said with a sad expression, "If he wants to get me, he has to let you all go first!"

"Master, don't..." Zheng Xiu'er said with tears in her eyes, "Once we leave, you will definitely commit suicide!" She and Xu Miaojin have been together day and night for two years, how can she not know the other party's rather unyielding temper?Otherwise, I would not flatly reject the emperor!Such a fierce woman, even if she commits herself to the enemy for a certain purpose, she will walk on that road sooner or later...

"Hehe..." Xu Miaojin didn't expect Zheng Xiuer to reveal her plan in one word. She gently stroked her ring, and there was a poisonous needle hidden in it. Even if she couldn't kill Ji Gang, she could end her own life.After she narrowly escaped death last time, she asked Ouchi craftsmen to build it, but she didn't expect it to be used so soon.
