Harry Potter's Morning Light Chapter 2104

Chapter 2104 The Battle of Flowers (Twelve)

According to Article 152 of the Laws of the Qing Dynasty, those who oppose etiquette, such as sorcerers, cult leaders, advocates of heresy, etc., are all guilty. Those who spread evil books, deceive people's hearts, and incite riots with chills or announcements. Anyone who prints, distributes, or preaches in public insurgent texts is guilty.

Nick opened the note again, just about to burn it, hesitated and put his hand back.

This is proof that if someone really intends to cause chaos, then at least the defenders should be prepared.

Cao Xi is the admiral's coat and collar. According to Juren, he is equivalent to a military division. He is in charge of military registration, litigation, etc., and does not command the army. The main naval division is stationed in Huizhou. Abolished, in recent years because of pirates, they have been re-stationed in Humen.

The power of the navy was not valued by the Manchu Qing, and the weapons on board were mainly spears and sabres. According to the description of a British "meat ticket" who was once kidnapped by Zheng Yi and later redeemed with 7654 Spanish silver dollars, the equipment of pirates Its sophistication is incomparable to that of the Great Water Division, so it not only repeatedly defeated the official army, but also severely damaged the Portuguese fleet, besieging Macau to the point of almost running out of food.

They have camps in Hong Kong, and shipyards, and learn from advanced science and technology. Once they exchanged fire with British warships and found that the British were firing 24-pound shells. A few months later, these pirates' fleets were also equipped with the same New cannons, which are said to have come from the same place as the British Navy.

After thinking it over and over again, Nick decided to go to the Admiral. When he got it, it was like a glass of poisonous wine given to him by the emperor, even more frightening than poisoned wine, his face was pale, and his first reaction was to destroy it.

Nick stopped him, although his face turned pale with fright, but the most important thing at this time was not to bury his head in the sand.

After doing what he was supposed to do, Nick left the Admiralty's House, but as soon as he went out, he met a man, this man was Harrow, the East India Company employee who gave his business card to him last time, and he still did not give up letting Nick draw the coast. Map proposal, and this time he brought gold bars.

No doubt someone followed him, thinking he had no money for expensive gifts.

Even if Nick refuses, they will find someone else to draw.

Nick has never thought deeply about theological issues. His tutor told him that Taoism pursues the process of purification of the soul. Only when the soul is purified can one drink the elixir and live in the heavenly palace with the fragrance of birds and flowers.

This is like someone who goes to heaven after being judged at the end of the day. No one would want to go to heaven, right?

Nick wanted to think about it, Harrock said it was optional, then he went to the pier and found Captain Yao. What Nick didn't expect was that he suddenly changed his attitude and didn't want to take Nick to Xiamen again.

They didn't pay a deposit in advance, and there was no contract. It was just a verbal agreement, but Captain Yao's attitude was very strange, and it seemed from his eyes that there was something else hidden.

Nick looked at the other captains, and their eyes were full of hostility, as if suddenly he had lost their friendship.

Having said that, I have to go back and talk about the story the priest told me...

"How could anyone not notice!" She put down the book and shouted.

Bonaparte didn't bother to talk to her at all.

She mumbled a few times and started to study again.

In the evening, Nick walked alone on the streets of Guangzhou. He used to walk alone with a paintbrush, but now he is alert and always feels that someone is following him. At this time, a man walked towards him quickly and suddenly punched him in the face.

This man looked like a low-class person, at least from his clothes, he looked like a low-level craftsman. After he beat Nick, he fled immediately and hid in a narrow alley.

Nick chased after him, annoyed by the inexplicable sudden attack, and by the light of the twilight he kept chasing after the man who hit him.

They ran into the crisscrossing alleys one after the other, and then the guy who hit Nick stopped suddenly, turned towards Nick, and shouted loudly. Nick could hear that he was shouting "Brother!", and then Nick felt someone lunging at him with a dagger in his hand.

Nick picked up the bamboo pole and prepared for defense immediately, but this was just a feint, and another person was holding a sack and trying to put it on Nick's head. At this moment, everyone ran out and slammed him with bamboo poles.

Nick blocked the blow with a bamboo pole, then pulled out the jackknife he built in Birmingham and carried it around for years.

"Who are you?" Nick asked in Mandarin.

"Damn yellow-haired spy, don't even think about leaking our secrets!" The man who besieged Nick also replied in Mandarin.

Nick could not answer.

"Let me see if your sword is more powerful or mine is more powerful."

Those people saw that Nick was silent, the one who attacked Nick first with a sword said, and then charged towards Nick with a weird posture.

Hesitating and losing his life at this critical juncture, Nick clutched the knife and swooped at the guard he thought was best. The guy was thrown to the ground unsuspecting.

Leon suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" asked Georgiana, puzzled.

"Did you think he would fight?" he asked rhetorically.

Georgianna looked at the book, thinking that she would see a wonderful duel scene.

"Damn." Georgiana cursed.

"Read it," he urged, as if he wanted to take the book from her.

Georgianna continued reading.

Because of being attacked, the man let out a scream, and Nick stumbled and almost fell on him.

Others were obviously stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, shouting as if provoked, and chasing after Nick.

Nick didn't know where to run, these alleys were like a maze, and these people were familiar with it, and even split up and planned to surround him.

These people just wanted to run faster than Nick. While running around, Nick found a chicken coop. He didn't hesitate to get in and wait for those who were chasing him to run past.

When these people were gone, Nick immediately took off his clothes, put on clothes that were hanging on a bamboo pole, and then wrapped his head in cloth, so that he looked like a local in low light conditions. .

On the way, Nick ran into two or three people who ran out of breath and regarded Nick as "one of their own".

He had heard that in the East it was forbidden to possess weapons, only one man had a sword, the others were all bamboo poles, and they were no match for the Spanish jackknife in Nick's hand.

However, Nick didn't take the risk of grabbing any of them to find out who these people were, after all, now that the enemy is outnumbered, he can't act rashly.

He followed a panic-stricken woman, who obviously did not want to get involved in this right and wrong. Under her guide, Nick left the labyrinth-like alley and came to the street where people come and go.

And so, he escaped the ambush, but he was definitely in trouble.
