"This means nothing to me. It's a very ancient past. There is no need to pursue it anymore." Zhu Shunshen said, "Just think I am a member of the Huang family. This time, thanks to their efforts to save me, I can survive."

"I heard you came from Sabah. There is a port full of Chinese people. There is also a very high mountain, which seems to be called Widow Mountain."

"Widow Mountain is called by people from those big cities, and we are all called Changning Sand Mountain." Zhu Shunshen said.

"My mother also mentioned that the mountain in the north was her hometown during her lifetime, but she never told me where it was, and for some reason she didn't want to go back. I really want to go there to see it." Anna said with expectation.

"As long as you speak, the master will definitely let you go. Maybe someone else will know your mother there." Cui Yongfang smiled.

"Is Lingtang also a person from Changning Mountain?" Zhu Shunshen saw that the girl looked both Chinese and European, and her unique Minnan dialect, she already knew that she was a mixed-race child. However, most Chinese in Sabah spoke Hakka. If her mother was from Sabah, how could this child speak Minnan dialect?

"What is the name of Lingtang? If possible, I can find it for you. Sabah is not a big place."

"Lingtang means mother, right? But she was summoned by the Lord when I was very young, and my father never told me..." Anna looked sad when she thought that she didn't even know her mother's name.

"It doesn't matter, twenty years are not long. At that time, many people should remember people and things. I will go back and ask, and I should know it."

After more than a week of treatment, Zhu Shunshen's malaria disease had been cured, and the existence of the malaria parasite could not be observed in blood cell testing. Shortly after he recovered, Chen Pengyu came to Shiriya with the second wave of support fleet. Wu Tingwei, who had been impatient, saw another veteran who could take charge, so he took the excuse to "investigate the sphere of influence of the Huang family in Sabah" and took Cui Yunhong and others to Sabah. Originally, Huang Lu wanted to go shopping with Anna, but he had to hike in the tropical rainforest. He was fat and afraid of heat and finally gave up.

In order to avoid disturbing local indigenous people and Europeans, they did not use their own ships, but took the ships returning from the Huang family.

The Huang family's base camp is located on the coast of Gothabelu, Sabah, Malaysia in the old time and space. It is now called Shanba Port by the Chinese who live here.

Shanba Port is 300 kilometers away from Silla, 200 kilometers away from the Ayutthaya city (Sribagawan city), and 50 kilometers away from the capital of Sabah Gotakhi Nabanu (China Widow City).

The boat sailed for a day and night, and the sea was calm and the waves were quiet. Several people gathered on the deck to watch the tropical scenery along the coast and chat.

"Yunhong, did you say that Sabah's name came from this Shanba Port?"

"I think it's possible, but the name of this place always reminds people of March 8..."

"Puff, the times are different. It was a glorious word for decades. These are all foreign spiritual and cultural pollution, which stigmatizes good words!"

Cui Yunhong turned his head and asked Huang Shidong: "Brother Huang, how did the name of this mountain Bagang come from?"

"It's like this. Along the sacred mountain, there are nine walled ports built by our tribe on the coast from north to south. The Shanba Port we went to is the eighth walled port, and it is also the largest of the nine..."

"You have quite a lot of people." Wu Tingwei was already silently thinking about how to use the power of the Huang family here.

After hearing this, Huang Shidong's face flashed with gloom: "But now there are only three cities left..."

"Is there something wrong?"

"Fifty years ago, the king of Sulu, the north, sent troops south and conquered the cities and lands. Our siege in the north was first involved in the war. Although we fought bravely and drove the Sulu people back, the entire northern region was destroyed, with houses destroyed and farmland deserted. In addition, after the war, the plagues raged and pirates frequently invaded. More than half of the population was lost. The survivors could not stand and could only move south to a few cities and villages in the south. Only then did a small port in Shanba Port flourish and become the largest city."

"So that's it." Wu Tingwei was surprised that Huang Senping originally started near Semporna in the north of Kalimantan Island. Why did there be no trace of Chinese in the north of Kalimantan Island in the later generations? It turned out that after several natural disasters and man-made disasters, he gradually retreated to the central Sabah area.

"But it is said that it is prosperous and prosperous, and Shanba Port has only a few hundred or nine thousand. Compared with the Central Plains, it is just a village." Huang Shidong said with a self-deprecating tone.

"Is it because of the plague?" Wu Tingwei already felt that everything here could be related to malaria.

"That's right, Borneo is rainy all year round, and it can be harvested twice a year when it is full of sunshine. There are many fish in the sea, and you can live without growing grain in the forest to pick wild fruits... But the miasma here is really great. In the past, we used to open up land in the forest. Before the fields were ready, most of the people who opened land died. Eight years ago, we went through a lot of trouble to recruit a group of southern Fujian people from Tangshan. We helped build five villages at the foot of the sacred mountain. We thought we could grow branches and leaves there, but we didn't expect that a major epidemic four years ago turned all efforts into ashes. Almost all of these newcomers died at the foot of Changning Mountain."

Such things can be said to have happened again and again. New immigrants must survive this harsh test before they have the opportunity to reproduce and grow locally. However, this test is almost extinct, and new immigrants often do not have one ten.

"There are so many disasters and difficulties." Cui Yunhong felt a little pity for these overseas residents.

"This is the place. We have become accustomed to separation from life and death. Even the descendants of the emperor are hard to escape. A Shen's brother also left because of this miasma. Fortunately, A Shen... no, the emperor was saved by the magic medicine of the leaders, otherwise this bloodline would be cut off in our hands... It would be better for the Central Plains..."

"The Central Plains have not had a good life in recent years. The northern bandits are experiencing disasters, and there are countless people who are starving to death after drought and flood."

"I have heard of the Central Plains. I really didn't expect that the Celestial Kingdom would be robbed." Huang Shidong sighed, "Most of the people here have immigrated to these generations. When they talk about the Tangshan homeland, they always feel that it is a paradise on earth. When they die, they pray that they can return to their hometown. Now, the natural disasters and man-made disasters in Tangshan are constantly causing no support, and they feel empty. Now I heard that European merchants say that there is also constant wars in their places... The world is so big that there is no place for peace."

"If you have the chance, you can go to Lingao with your father and go to Guangzhou to have a look." Wu Tingwei said proudly, "I dare not say that it is a paradise on earth, and the people are affordable to live and work in peace and contentment."

"I believe this. To be honest, we have heard a lot of the story of the leader in Qiongzhou and Guangzhou over the years." Huang Shidong said, "Huang only has one wish: I hope that when Chief Cui and Chief Wu return, they can convey the earnest hopes of our clan members to the Senate and relieve our sufferings. I am very grateful..."

While everyone was talking, a tall mountain peak had emerged from the entire mountain.

"Please look, the high mountain ahead is Changning Mountain." Huang Shidong pointed his hand in the direction where the mountain emerged.

Everyone turned their attention to the towering Borneo Mountain - 4,095 meters high mountain of Kinabanu, which means Chinese Widow Mountain in Malay.

In later generations of mountain names, some say that Huang Senping's first wife Li Huiniang was buried in this mountain, so she got her name. It is also said that a Chinese businessman in the Qing Dynasty did business here and married the daughter of the local chief. Later, the Chinese man went to sea and never returned. The widow climbed the mountain to watch his husband return and was named...

The origin of the name of the sacred mountain is different from the locals in Malays, but the Kinabanu Mountain in this time and space still has a serious Chinese name: the imperial gift of Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty, "Changning Zhenguo Shenshan".

In 1408, Boni King Manaragana (i.e. Huang Senping) entered the tribute of China. During his visit to Nanjing, he died of illness due to dissatisfaction with the land and water. He left his last words of "being buried in China" and was buried in Wugui Mountain, Yuhuatai, Nanjing. Emperor Yongle sent eunuch Zhang Qian to escort the new king Xiawang back to the country. After Zhang Qian arrived in Boni, he carved stones and erected a monument at the foot of Kinabalu Mountain, and granted the title of "Changning Town Sacrificial Mountain" and Yongzhen Nanyang.

To be honest, judging from these historical facts published in the book, it is hard to imagine that Huang Senping would take in Emperor Jianwen or his descendants. If he just wanted to find a backer and a spiritual totem that could convince immigrants, Emperor Yongle's various enthrones were enough for him, why should he risk angering the Ming court to hide the Jianwen lineage? So Cui Yunhong had great suspicion about Zhu Shunshen's matter.

At the end of the sight, the sacred mountain rose from the ground, standing out among the mountains of Borneo's stretching archipelago. The flawless clouds lingered on her mountainside, looking at the sails passing by like a supreme venerable. No wonder the local Chinese respected her as the sacred mountain.

Cui Yunhong is quite familiar with this Kinabanu Mountain. Just one year before his journey, he and his "companion" climbed the main peak of the sacred mountain during their free trip in Malaysia. The two of them looked at the rolling sea of ​​clouds on the top of the mountain together. Now they have returned to the sacred mountain four hundred years ago, and their hearts are even more thrilling.

"What a high mountain! I heard my father and mother say that there is a very tall mountain in the north. I have wanted to see it for a long time, and I finally saw it today!" Anna shouted excitedly.
