Chapter 629: The sound of entering the water in the middle of the night

Chapter 629 The sound of entering the water in the middle of the night.

The next day, the sun is warm, and it is good to travel!

Ye Xing and the others have been in Manjinga for a long time, and it's time to leave.

On the day of leaving, the king and the prince of the wind led the people of Manjingjia to see them off, because the stay of Ye Xing and the others solved the pirate problem that had been bothering them for them, and Ai Fei'er also saved the king Baili Misura, so the subjects of Manjinga were very grateful to Ye Xing and his party.

Set sail, Ye Xing's powerful fleet unexpectedly blew gusts of wind on the sea.

A fleet of more than 20,000 men sailed through the waters of Malacca to their next country.

At this time, the ocean was endless, and if it weren't for Zheng He's previous route, many people would think that there was no country ahead.

Ye Xing and Hua Zhimeng don't have this kind of thought, their modern knowledge makes them know more than Zheng He, on this earth, there are people in many areas, and the West Ocean is just a small part.

However, even if Ye Xing and the others knew, they didn't tell Zheng He about these situations, with Zheng He's adventurous character, if he told him, he would definitely continue to move forward and would not stop.

And there are so many risks at sea, Ye Xing and the others don't want to go to that kind of barbaric place.

The ship has been on the sea for a long time, but it is still some distance from Ceylon, and Michelle, the envoy of Ceylon, is about to arrive home, but his expression is not very good, this person who is looking for trouble in Daming, I don't know what to think at this time.

After Michelle's situation was discovered by Zheng He, he once went to inquire and asked him if he was uncomfortable, Michelle only smiled slightly and said that he was fine.

Zheng He saw that Mihir himself said that it was okay, and he didn't want to ask too much, anyway, after Mihir was sent to Ceylon safely, they would have no responsibility.

At this time, there were not many envoys left on the ship carrying foreign envoys, except for the envoys of Ceylon, and the only ones left were the envoys of the country of Kochi.

So for a while, the whole ship seemed to be a lot quieter.

In two days we will be in Ceylon.

That night, Ye Xing and the others were very tired, so they went to sleep early, but in the middle of the night, Ye Xing suddenly heard the sound of something entering the water, and the sound was very loud, which made people very suspicious.

Ye Xing woke up and hurriedly came to the deck to check, but the sea was calm and there was nothing.

Confused, Ye Xing returned to the room and fell asleep again.

The next day, after Ye Xing and the others got up, someone came to report that Ah Ming in the kitchen was missing.

After Ye Xing listened to the report, he was very surprised, now it is not on land, it is impossible for a person to disappear without a boat, Ye Xing thought of the sound of something entering the water last night, and thought that it was very likely that Ah Ming fell into the water.

But Amin is a cook, he can't jump into the sea and commit suicide.

When Ye Xing thought of this, he immediately said, "Check the things on the ship to see if anything is missing, and if anyone is missing?" ”

After everyone received the order, they hurriedly searched for it, and found that except for Ah Ming, there was no one missing, but to everyone's surprise, there were many jewels missing from the warehouse under the cabin.

When everyone learned of this situation, Di Xiaojie hurriedly said: "That Ah Ming must have stolen the jewelry from the warehouse and then escaped!" ”

As soon as Di Xiaojie finished speaking, Xu Ruoxuan unceremoniously pointed out the unreasonableness.

"Hey, we're on the sea, there's no bounding around, and it's impossible for Amin to jump into the sea and escape if he steals, unless he doesn't want to live!"

When Xu Ruoxuan said this, Di Xiaojie knew that he was a little inconsiderate in speaking, so he patiently did not speak again.

At this time, Hua Zhimeng said: "Last night, in the haze, I heard the sound of something falling into the water, could it be Ah Ming?" ”

Ai Fei'er and Di Xiaojie both shook their heads and said that they didn't hear the sound of falling into the water, while Ye Xing nodded and said, "I also heard the sound of falling into the water last night, and I came out to check, but the sea was calm at that time, and I didn't find anything." ”

"Then this is really strange, Amin is not stupid, he should know very well, even if he stole something, it is impossible to live from this sea, if he didn't steal it, then after he fell into the water, he would definitely shout for help." Xu Ruoxuan expressed his incomprehension.

After listening to this, Di Xiaoxin hurriedly said: "Ah Ming fell into the water and did not shout, that only shows a possibility, when Ah Ming fell into the water, he was already dead!" ”

After listening to Di Xiaoxin's words, everyone was suddenly shocked in their hearts, if Ah Ming was already dead when he fell into the water, it means that someone killed Ah Ming and threw his body into the sea.

So, they have murderers on board.

When Ye Xing and the others came to such a conclusion, Zheng He immediately ordered the ship to stop and continue sailing, they had to figure out this matter before they could continue to move forward.

In addition to ordering the ship not to move forward, Ye Xing also ordered that the personnel on the ship were not allowed to move around casually, let alone go to other ships.

Originally, everyone's boats were more than ten feet away from each other, if the people on the two boats wanted to meet, they had to get close to the boats, and then go down the escalator, after Ye Xing's order, all the boats stopped at a distance from each other, and they didn't dare to approach casually.

After all this was done, Ye Xing led people to the place where Ah Ming slept, in that cabin, in addition to Ah Ming, there were three other people, all of whom were cooks on the ship, and they prepared the daily meals for Ye Xing and the others.

Among the three people, there are two fat people and one is a little thinner, they are all famous chefs in Jinling, because Zheng He gave a high salary, and they also wanted to see the customs of various countries, so they were willing to go to sea together.

Now that Amin is dead, the three of them are somewhat suspicious.

After some understanding, Ye Xing knew that among the three people, the two fat men were named Chen Donggua and Zhang Xiaobai, and the slightly thinner one was called Luo Hai, and the three of them didn't know each other much before they got on the boat and went to sea.

Now the three of them look puzzled and wronged, which makes people look very pitiful.

That Chen Donggua got up and looked at Ye Xing and the others and said, "I don't know what happened to King Daming coming to us, we are preparing to wash up and then cook for everyone!" ”

Ye Xing asked the three of them to sit down, and then said: "Ah Ming disappeared suddenly, I suspect that he was killed and thrown into the sea, so I want to find out about the situation with you, and ask you a few questions by the way, as for the matter of cooking, don't rush first, let everyone wait a while and not starve to death." ”

Chen Donggua and the three of them glanced at each other, and then Chen Donggua said: "Since it is the order of King Daming, I will naturally obey it, and King Daming will ask if he has anything to ask!" ”
