The first navigator of the Ming Dynasty

Sleep is divided into two forms: deep sleep and light sleep, and these two sleep styles are usually alternated by ordinary people.

But Zheng Hai is not an ordinary person, he is a specially trained special soldier. In an unfamiliar environment, he will always be vigilant and keep himself in a light sleep state.

This state of light sleep is not unique to Zheng Hai, but has been trained.

From the Marine Corps to the Scout Training Camp, to the Special Forces Devil Week and the Jiaolong Commando Intensive Training, the instructors have innovated in their ways. From midnight whistles and wake-up calls to gunshots, explosions, to smoke bombs, tear gas, and more. But the only constant is to make people stronger, to be vigilant at all times.

Zheng Hai had survived all the way from the Marine Corps, and his vigilance had almost become instinctive. Even though he no longer possessed the powerful body he used to have, the subconscious in his soul had been trained to be a conditioned reflex.

Even if he was sleeping lightly, Zheng Hai was dreaming. He dreamed of his comrade-in-arms Ma Huan in the Jiaolong Special Combat Team:

on a commercial street, he and Ma Huan were shopping, and Ma Huan was buying gifts for his wife.

Ma Huan turned around and asked him, "Haizi, I heard that you can speak Thai." How do you say 'hello' in Thai?

" "Savadika

!" Ma Huan said: "Chinese translation, simpler, I'll tell your sister-in-law this sentence when I call!" "It's

very simple, that is: Sa, Wa, Di, Ka."

Ma Huan said again: "It's too embarrassing, say hurry up, it's very fluent

!" "Savadika

, swipe my drop card!" "Really?" "Really

, just swipe my drop card!" "

Okay, then swipe your card!" Ma Huan smiled wickedly and took the bank card from his pocket...

Because he knew Thai, he planted himself in Thai. He was cheated of an allowance by Ma Huan's sentence Savadika. However, he also recognized a godson because of this, that is, Ma Huan's son.

Zheng Hai's mind appeared another picture

about Ma Huan: the Djibouti base, Ma Huan happily told him: "Haizi, I have a son, just

born!" "Did you name it?"

Ma Huan replied: "Just born, not yet! Aren't you going to be the godfather of the child? You give one a try

!" "How about calling Ma He!"

"You are looking for death!".

Ma Huan was about to kick over, and he scolded: "Don't think that I don't know that you study Zheng He and Zheng He's ships all day long! Bully me because I don't understand history, right, I know that Zheng He was called Ma He when he was a child

..." "Isn't it good to be a great navigator

? We are also a navy..." "you! My son is not a eunuch

!" "How about Ma Heping? We are soldiers to guard peace, and your son is also my godson, and we will protect him together!"

"That's pretty much it!" Ma Huan nodded with satisfaction, and said, "In view of your good performance, I will ask your sister-in-law to help you introduce you." When the time comes, you will also have a son, and I will help you think of a name, and he will be called Zheng Yi! My son's name is Heping, and your son's name is Zheng Yi. Guarding peace and upholding justice are definitely a pair of good brothers

!" "What if my family gives birth to a daughter instead of a son?"

Ma Huan said: "That's better! My son is booked, so he will be my daughter-in-law in the future! Childhood sweethearts or child daughters-in-law, you can choose

...""I'll go to yours..."

Good times are always short-lived, and so are sweet dreams.

Zheng Hai's flying leg in the dream didn't kick Ma Huan, he kicked through the dream, and with a click, he stepped on the plank. He woke up from his dream and found himself lying next to the fire of the Ming Dynasty. He stared at the roaring fire, a little confused, which one of them was a dream.

In the silence of the night, the slightest noise is particularly noticeable.

After Zheng Hai woke up from a light sleep, he was about to fall back asleep, but was awakened by a very slight noise.

He opened his eyes slightly, and his hand was already touching the boning knife under the wooden plank beneath him. As soon as he started with a knife, he had the bottom in his heart, and in this era of cold weapons, he at least had the ability to protect himself.

Zheng Hai glanced at the sleeping little beggar Di Yun, glanced at the furnishings in the house, and then at the door and window, nothing changed. He wondered if his nerves were too sensitive, and there was no security threat in the room.

Just when Zheng Hai was doubting his intuition, an alarm device set up by Zheng Hai outside the courtyard sounded. Something triggered the device, and the sound of wooden sticks striking ceramics came from the courtyard.

This alarm device is actually very simple, it is a chain of several bamboos, wooden sticks and ceramic jars. It mainly uses the elasticity of the bent bamboo piece as an elastic trigger mechanism, and the middle is connected with a thin fishing net wire, once the bamboo piece or the wooden stick or fishing net wire connected to it is triggered, other related objects will be linked, so as to make a sound.

Originally, Zheng Hai suspected that he was nervous, but as soon as he heard that the alarm device was triggered, he immediately became vigilant again. Turning over slightly, he came to the little beggar's side, he held the boning knife in his backhand, the cat was bent at the waist, and his eyes and ears were kept twelve points vigilant.

"Meow!" a cat meow came from near the alarm device.

Zheng Hai's eyes were more energetic.

He heard a lot of things from the cat's meow, such as distance, size, etc. He pinned the boning knife to his waist, gently picked up the little beggar with both hands, and walked to a corner by the stove where he could hide.

Putting down Xiao Diyun, Zheng Hai once again held the boning knife in his hand, glanced at the doors and windows, quickly came to the fire, and extinguished the firewood.

Outside the courtyard, it was still pitch black. In the darkness of the night, a pair of eyes reflected the fire from the window in the room, and a bright knife reflected the faint light of the fire.

As the fire in the house suddenly dimmed, the eyes in the dark night had a hint of vigilance and panic. He paused to check what was going on in the room. This man in black is the thin-eyed and long-faced killer who infiltrated the yard.

The thin-eyebrow and long-faced killer glanced back behind him, but it was pitch black behind him, and he didn't find the killer Xiang Batian he was looking for.

There was a thud, and the sound of the door opening interrupted the Thin-Brow Killer's thoughts.

"I saw you, don't hide!" Zheng Hai's voice came from the room.

A wooden stick with an orange-red carbon head flew out of the house and flew straight in the direction of the killer's thin eyebrows.

When there was a sound, the thin eyebrow killer blocked the flying wooden stick with a big knife, and at this time, Zheng Hai saw the outline of a big knife and a man in black.

"How did you find me?" the Thin Eyebrow Killer couldn't help but ask.

Zheng Hai didn't answer, and another wooden stick with sparks flew in the direction where the thin eyebrow killer spoke, and Zheng Hai quickly stepped out of the room.

The wooden stick flew and smashed into the Thin Eyebrow Killer, and there was another muffled sound, followed by the angry scolding of the Thin Eyebrow Killer: "Boy, you are dead!" The wooden stick with the spark was

fleeting, and the courtyard fell into darkness again. Zheng Hai and the Thin Eyebrow Killer can't see each other. At this time, if anyone makes a movement or lights the light first, it is likely that the other party will find out and be killed.

"You're here to kill me?" Zheng Hai asked suddenly.

A big knife with a whistling sound of cutting slashed in the direction of Zheng Hai's speech from the side, and with a bang, the big knife slashed a bamboo.

"You're fooling me!" the thin-eyebrow killer roared, and at the same time swung his knife vigorously, slashing around.

There was a bang, and the thin-eyebrow killer was hit by a bamboo pole.

"Ahh He waved the broadsword in his hand wildly, whirring and slashing into the darkness around him.

Horn, the knife slashed the bamboo pole several times, blocking the bamboo pole, the thin eyebrows quickly got up, and hurriedly retreated away from the bamboo pole.

With a few successive sounds, he triggered the early warning device that Zheng Hai had set up in the yard before.

A long bamboo pole roared towards the thin eyebrow killer, and with a bang, the big knife held by the thin eyebrow killer fell to the ground and was knocked off by Zheng Hai's bamboo pole.

In the darkness, something fell lightly on the thin-eyebrow killer. When he found out that it was a fishing net and struggled to remove it, Zheng Hai's boning knife was pressed against his lower back.

Zheng Hai said: "Say quickly, how many of you are here, otherwise I will stab you with a knife

!" "Don't, don't!" I said, I said, there are two of us... Xiang Boss, save me!" the thin eyebrows panicked.

Suddenly, Zheng Hai felt the wind behind him, and he hurriedly rolled to the side of the ground.

"Ah!" The man in black with thin eyebrows and long face screamed miserably, and Xiang Batian, who attacked from behind, did not hit Zheng Hai, but slashed the man in black with thin eyebrows and long face.

"Don't kill me... I—"

The thin-eyed long-faced killer who fell to the ground groaned a few times before there was no more sound, presumably having choked his breath.

If it weren't for Zheng Hai's extraordinary keen insight and intuitive judgment, it would not be the killer who was killed by mistake who fell to the ground and died, but Zheng Hai.

The courtyard was dead silent again, and it was as dark as ink all around. Unless you get closer, you can't see anything at all.

Zheng Hai took the long knife that the killer had dropped on the ground in his hand and held it in front of him. He was close to the ground, his waist bent, and his body was not standing up straight.

The night was too dark, and Zheng Hai couldn't see the killer who attacked him.

As a special combat team, Zheng Hai is familiar with night battles, but most of the cases are assisted by infrared or low-light night vision devices. In the dark night like this, Zheng Hai also felt his inexplicable heartbeat accelerating.

In this kind of dark night without light, Zheng Hai and Xiang Batian can't see each other, and whoever exposes himself first may be killed.

Previously, Zheng Hai used a long bamboo pole and fishing net to deal with the first killer, but he didn't expect two killers to come, and he was almost killed by another killer. Now he doesn't have a long bamboo pole or fishing net, but he has an extra long knife. He is at the same starting point as the killer and cannot see each other.

Zheng Hai held his breath, not even daring to breathe, for fear that his opponent would find him. His eyes could not pierce the dark night, he could only listen with his ears and judge by his own intuition.

However, Zheng Hai couldn't hear any movement around him, and the surroundings were too quiet. He could feel his heart pounding, but he couldn't sense where his opponent was.

Zheng Hai didn't dare to move, he judged by intuition and memory: the killer was not far from him.

Since the last time the killer attacked him and killed his companion by mistake, the killer had been silent. This silence is terrifying, like a peep before a cheetah attack, a curling up before a viper attack, and the next attack is deadly.

Zheng Hai had to calm himself down. He can't move, he can't make a sound, or he's likely to encounter a deadly sneak attack.

He knew that the other party was a master. They are now competing who is more patient, who is more composed, and who does not make fatal mistakes. Whoever makes a mistake can die.

Zheng Hai and Xiang Batian both hibernated and competed for patience.

"Brother Hai, how did the fire go out? It's so dark! Brother Hai, where are you?"

In the dead silence, the call of the little beggar Di Yun came from the kitchen.

Zheng Hai, who had been engrossed in searching for the killer, secretly screamed that it was not good, and at this time Xiao Diyun woke up!

Zheng Hai was embarrassed.

If he doesn't say anything, the killer may pose a threat to little Diyun... If he speaks out, he is likely to be attacked by the killer, what will he do?
