The sea at night is extremely beautiful. The waves hitting the boat under the moonlight make bursts of sound, regular and ups and downs.
Like a sweet song and dance in a silent night, this is a masterpiece of nature, making it even more intoxicating.
Tang Jian may be older and sleeps less.
He always had trouble sleeping on this unfamiliar sea.
According to calculations, it was already the twenty-second day after setting off from Dengzhou Port. After passing through Silla, crossing a short strait, we came to a huge island.
"Japanese Island? Is this the Japanese country that brags about being the land of the rising sun?"
I thought it was a fairly civilized country, but after visiting the shore the day before yesterday, I discovered that it might not even be as good as the small countries around the Tang Dynasty.
"Uncle Tang thinks too highly of them. The last time we came here, the people here thought we were envoys from the kingdom of God. It's so stupid and terrible!"
Ji Qing came to Tang Jian at some point and said.
His only impression of the Japanese country was that they were short in stature and ridiculous in appearance, just like a dwarf, and there was nothing worth remembering at all.
"But I heard from my husband that there are gold and silver mines with amazing reserves here, but I don't know if it's true or not?" Ji Qing was unsure.
"It's probably not a lie. Last time, Japanese envoys came to the Tang Dynasty. They brought a large amount of gold and silver of low purity, and even sent a lot of it to my house."
Tang Jian said without hesitation.
This was nothing in the Tang Dynasty, and it wasn't just me who was given it as a gift.
Gold and silver were not the main currency in the Tang Dynasty. They were mostly just precious metals!
"That day, the Japanese envoy asked us to take their people on board. Why didn't you agree?"
Facing Tang Jian's question, Ji Qing said indifferently: "Why? They can know where we are going this time? If there weren't too many people that day, I would never let him go back alive."
Tang Jian was stunned. He didn't expect Ji Qing's reaction to be so big?
"Uncle Tang, don't be surprised. Although this small island country is not big, it has frequent volcanoes, which sometimes develops their very urgent character. They even dream of living on the mainland."
"If they knew that there was a huge continent not far from them in the north, they would probably go there at all costs."
"And I will never allow this. Neither sir nor anyone else will let them sit back and enjoy their gains. Their location is too good. As long as they know the direction, even if they don't need a big ship, they can be in the right place." Time gets there, and we need more time.”
Tang Inspector frowned slightly when he heard this and said, "Are they making a fuss out of a molehill? Even if they can arrive, what kind of threat can they pose to us?"
Tang Jian didn't take it seriously and thought they were a little too cautious.
Ji Qing shook his head and did not argue, but said: "Sir, he said that China is too proud. From the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, to Xia, Shang and Zhou, to the Qin and Han Dynasties, we have never looked down upon foreigners."
"But what's the result?"
Ji Qing said excitedly: "The result is that the five tribes have destroyed China and the people of the Central Plains have been wiped out. If the Yangtze River hadn't been blocking it, it wouldn't be surprising even if the entire clan was wiped out!"
"It's only been a few years? Everyone has forgotten?"
Tang Jian looked at the excited Ji Qing and was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that one word would actually make this kid go crazy.
The sea breeze blew slowly, and Ji Qing slowly calmed down.
"You may not know this, but I, Mrs. Ji, have extremely detailed records of that period, covering more than 100,000 words. They are all about the actions of those beasts, which our ancestors witnessed with their own eyes."
"In order to prevent future generations from forgetting this period of history, I still remember the sentence above: Those who are not of my race must have different minds!"
"Later, the ancestral precepts were written with blood. Those who dare to serve the alien race in the future generations will die a good death!"
Then he looked at Tang Jian, who was already stunned, and said, "What do you think, Uncle Tang?"
At this time, Tang Jian no longer had the courage to question and refute Ji Qing. Others didn't know that period of history, but how could he not know it?
But he didn't expect that Ji's ancestors had recorded this history in detail. No matter who wrote the history books, they would intentionally or unintentionally bypass this period of history.
It’s not that I don’t want to write, it’s that I don’t dare to write!
That is simply an inhumane scene. It makes people feel horrified to see it. How dare you make it public?
What about after it becomes public?
What should the emperor do when faced with the people who know the truth?
Kill the aliens? That is simply impossible and will only intensify greater conflicts.
Therefore, successive dynasties would obscure this period of history, or even only record it in a few strokes!
"Tang Gong, maybe I am too extreme, but as long as it is a foreign race, the kid will think of that cruel and inhumane history."
"Although it has passed, who can guarantee that it will not happen again?"
"I, the Ji family, can't control others, but in my Ji family, if anyone dares to do such a thing, he will definitely be in a dilemma of life and death..."
Ji Qing left, leaving Tang Jian alone on the deck blowing the sea breeze.
He suddenly shuddered, and the undulating waves were like innocent souls, asking him why he had forgotten this period of history...
When the sun rises, the scene of sunrise on the sea is spectacular. No matter who sees it for the first time, it will have a shocking emotion.
Tang Jian, whose eyes were still bloodshot, came to Ji Qing, who was getting up and washing up, and said, "I was wrong last night. From now on, it's up to you to decide on such matters. You don't need to ask me."
Ji Qing was a little surprised, while Liu Xiancheng and others on the side looked confused!
Wang Xuance became even more curious, but before he could ask, Ji Qing pushed him back.
"Be smart and calculate the wind direction and distance again later. If you make a mistake again, clean the deck for me."
Everyone was wailing. Due to the heavy fog the day before, the route had deviated, so they needed to recalculate the route to return to the scheduled route.
This job is not easy, it involves many things, is complex, and requires a lot of calculations.
In order to ensure that the calculations are correct, they need to cross each other and calculate several times, and only after they are all connected can it be considered complete.
At this time, we have reached the northernmost part of the Japanese island. If we go further, we will reach a series of islands, because there has been no record of them before.
Therefore, during the last trial voyage, it was named Pearl Islands.
Once here, if you go further, you will be completely in the wilderness. There is no country, no human habitation, and even savages are rarely seen.
The last time they reached that strait, they didn't move forward, but this time they had to continue moving forward.
After that, it was difficult for them to have supplies, so they collected a lot of things while on the Japanese island, which made many people in the Japanese country smile.
Three days later, the fleet set off again to determine the route.
Looking at the islands getting further and further away, they knew that the next supply would probably have reached the land they were about to reach.............
