Granada, Arambuda Palace. Pu Shougeng rolled his sleeves and came out of this beautiful palace under construction, and his eyes were squinted by the sun. Then he tried to open his eyes again, looking at the residential and commercial areas in the lower places, prosperous, comfortable and harmonious. The white houses and ochre-red roofs are densely stacked, stretching along the hillside, and it looks almost airtight.

The semi-dome of the Celestial Mosque, the spire of the Christian church, and the synagogue that is not much different from the ordinary architecture coexist in this bustling and beautiful city.

The religion of the city is free, the mind is open, and the people are so gentle and friendly. This is probably the reason why Pu Shougeng wandered in the West for many years, and finally chose the Kingdom of Granada as his retirement place.

This city makes him feel like he is in his hometown, and this hometown is Quanzhou!

And the kingdom of Granada also has a feeling that Pu Shougeng is extremely familiar with, this country seems to be a pocket version of the Great Song Dynasty, a corner of peace, bowing to the Christian kingdom of Castile, in exchange for a condensed prosperity and comfort. Unlike the Mamluk Sultan of Egypt, the king here is ambitious, ambitious, and decisive, and no one knows that he will be the next unlucky man to be stabbed.

After escaping from Malacca, the Pu Shou Geng clan first went to Tianzhu, but they were ostracized by other Tianfang Sect merchants. Because they are enemies of the Ming Empire, whoever befriends them will not want to do business in Malacca! There were even people who wanted to take off his head and present it to the governor of the Ming Strait, because Chen Defang offered a reward of 1,000 taels of gold for the head. In desperation, Pu Shougeng had no choice but to continue westward with his clansmen. First went to Muscat, where most of the ships were sold. and Ma Shoushan and several other Tianfang Sect merchants who came out of Quanzhou together, and also dismissed most of the servant and boy thugs. With only the most core clansmen, he made a detour to Egypt to find the master of the Heavenly Sect.

However, the Ming lord Baibers was a self-righteous tyrant, and he did not listen to Pu Shougeng's correct opinion of uniting Mongolia to resist the Ming, but thought that Pu Shougeng was a spy of the Mongols, and wanted to behead Pu Shougeng and send it to Malacca to Chen Defang as a gift for the alliance between the Mamluk Sultan and the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, Pu Shougeng took out the H medicine formula, the Heavenly Thunder Arrow and the Three-Bow Bed Crossbow, so that the Ming Lord Baibers kept him and made him the head of the arsenal. However, Pu Shougeng still found an opportunity when Baibers went on the expedition. Escaped Egypt with his family...... He's fed up with the days when he is like a tiger, and the kind of days when he doesn't know when his head will move is really not human!

After the "Exodus from Egypt", Pu Shougeng was no longer interested in the Heavenly Sect or anything, he just wanted to find a comfortable place away from the Ming Empire and spend the rest of his life in peace and comfort. So some friends who did business in the Mediterranean recommended him the kingdom of Granada, which is almost the westernmost part of the world, tens of thousands of miles away from the easternmost Ming Dynasty. And Sultan Muhammad of Granada. Root. Yusuf. Root. Nasr was a well-known wise man throughout Europe. Although he was a vassal to the Christian country of Castile, he managed his own small country well, and he allowed Celestialism, Christianity, and Judaism to live in harmony, and established a university in Granada. With more than 20 courses in religion and natural sciences, the University of Granada has not only become the academic center of the entire Celestial Sect world, but also attracts a large number of Christians to study.

And Granada really didn't disappoint Pu Shougeng, this seems to be a Quanzhou at the end of the world (Pu Shougeng doesn't believe that there is a new continent of Mingzhou). No. It's even better here than Quanzhou. After all, Quanzhou is a city ruled by infidels, while Granada is a paradise governed by the Celestial Sect. This Nasr Sultan is to some extent Pu Shougeng's idol, and he just wants to become a Celestial Sect ruler like Nasr Sultan - he Pu Shougeng can't be the kind of murderous and unblinking king king of Baibers. People climbed from a slave to the throne of the Sultan step by step. He is just a wealthy businessman, that is, he can kill some Zhao Song Zongzi who has no ability to resist. was almost destroyed by a madman named Zhao Youyu......

Probably because Nasr Sultan and Pu Shougeng are all the way, the two actually hit it off at first sight. Pu Shou Geng soon became a guest of honor at the Arambuda Palace. He also served as an advisor to the Granada Palace. He was summoned to the palace every once in a while to tell the Sultan about the strange things of the East and the various novelties of the Heavenly Taoism.

"It's a good day like this!" Pu Shougeng sighed with emotion, and walked towards his sedan chair. His son Pu Shiwen, his housekeeper Pu An, and six castrated black slaves were guarding there.

"Ali," Pu Shougeng called his son's name, "why are you here?" Why don't you keep an eye on H Pharmacy? The Mamluks are still waiting to pick up the goods. ”

Pu Shou Geng is now not only Granada's adviser minister, but also an arms dealer! The main business is actually H medicine, heavenly thunder arrows and three-bow bed crossbows! The Sultan of Granada and the Sultan of Mamluk were his clients - the Sultan of Nasr simply stockpiled the H-weapon as a precautionary measure. The Sultan of Baibers in Mamluk hoped to use these weapons to bulldoze the Crusaders on the Mediterranean coast before counterattacking Baghdad. Therefore, this murderous Ming Jun forgave Pu Shougeng's departure (if you don't forgive, you can't help it, you can't send troops to the Iberian Peninsula in order to catch Pu Shougeng, right?) ), and also purchased H-drug weapons from him to arm the Mamluk army.

In the just-concluded Battle of Jaffa-Antioch, the Mamluks inflicted heavy losses on the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospitaller, destroyed the Duchy of Antioch, slaughtered 16,000 defenders who had surrendered their arms, and sold all the city's inhabitants (about 100,000 people) into slavery in Egypt.

The Sultan of Baibers, who had tasted the sweetness of H-medicine weapons, not long ago sent emissaries to Granada to purchase more H-medicine weapons with gold looted from Antioch and Jaffa. As a result, the Pu family's workshop in Granada has been extremely busy these days. Pu Shiwen stayed there day and night, urging the craftsmen to complete the order of the Sultan of Baibers as soon as possible, a figure that the Sultan must not be provoked.

"What's going on? It can't be some kind of accident in the workshop, right? Seeing his son's appearance as if he was in mourning, Pu Shougeng also became nervous, what this H Pharmaceutical Workshop is most afraid of is an accident! It's full of flammable and explosive materials!

Pu Shiwen shook his head desperately, his face was ugly as if he had died of a good father, and he was still panting, as if he had run all the way from somewhere.

"Ali, what's wrong?" Pu Shougeng was also a little nervous.

"Father, out, something is wrong! The thief, the thief is coming! Pu Shiwen finally took a breath and yelled in a voice that almost cried.

"Oh, what am I going to do!" Pu Shougeng didn't care, and waved his hand and said, "With Ilkhan Abha and Sultan Baibers in front, they can't beat Granada without thirty or fifty years." Ali, you're already dozens of years old, can't you be steady......"

Although he was a madman, he was very good at fighting, and his Mamluk soldiers were all highly skilled and not easy to deal with. Moreover, Egypt was too far away from the Ming Dynasty, and it was impossible for Chen Dexing to send a huge expeditionary force. So Pu Shougeng is very relieved now.

"Father! The thief has arrived in Lisbon! Pu Shiwen shook his head violently and interrupted Pu Shougeng.

"Li...... Lisbon? Pu Shougeng shook his head, "Rumors, this is rumors." Lisbon is west of Granada, and the thief is in the east, how can it be called from the west? ”

"It's not a rumor, it's really not a rumor...... The merchant ship we sent to Lisbon will meet the fleet of thieves! They saw with their own eyes that a total of 37 warships, 5 of which were as large as castles, and 5,000 foot soldiers, were now stationed in Lisbon! ”

After all, Lisbon is a commercial port, and there are still quite a lot of merchant ships and merchants coming in and out. Moreover, the Ming Western Fleet also stayed in Lisbon as a guest rather than a conqueror, and naturally did not have the right to blockade the port. Therefore, the news of the arrival of the Ming fleet in Lisbon was quickly spread by the merchants. Granada, close to Lisbon, also got the news very quickly.

However, Pu Shougeng still didn't believe it, this was too ridiculous, 37 warships, 5,000 infantry...... How could such a large military force appear in Lisbon? How did they get here? Bypassing Africa? That's just a legendary route, no one has walked it at all, Daming is going to go, and it is impossible to invest so many ships and so many troops, right? Shouldn't we send a few small boats to explore the way first?

Seeing that Pu Shougeng still had an expression of disbelief, Pu Shiwen stomped his feet, "Not only our people have seen it, but the businessmen who have come back from Lisbon have seen it!" The thieves are really here, they can't be wrong, they are here to kill us...... Father, let's run away! ”

"Ali, you ......" Pu Shougeng just wanted to say "Are you dreaming", a chubby black eunuch ran out as if he was flying, and seeing that Pu Shougeng had not left, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted.

"Mr. Abdul, His Majesty the Sultan is urgently called!"

"Urgent?" Pu Shougeng looked back, and it turned out to be O'Hara, the Sultan's most trusted black eunuch, "Mr. O'Hara, what's wrong?" ”

"The Ming people are here, the Ming people have arrived in Lisbon, and ...... Soon to attack Granada! ”

Akito, it's really here! The Pu family has fled to the edge of the sky, and they still chase after them!

Pu Shougeng's eyes were dark, and his body shook and he was about to faint, but Pu Shiwen quickly held him up. The black eunuch also hurriedly came up, grabbed Pu Shougeng's other arm, and dragged Pu Shougeng, who was weak, to the Alan Buda Palace with his weak legs and feet. (To be continued......)
