Chapter 15

On this day, they came to a place called Longxi Island.This islet stands in the sea, the sea surface is gorgeous, and the waves hit the clouds.Every spring, many dragons come here to gather and mate. The saliva that they drool congeals into fat lumps on the shore of the underwater reef. It is snow white at first, and then turns black and yellow with time. It has a strange fragrance when burned, which is called ambergris. , also known as Qianjindan.The natives who live nearby set up boats to pick them at the beginning of summer. You can get twelve gold for one tael, and 190 taels for one catty.

Because of the huge profits from picking incense, several nearby countries, such as Sudana, Huamian, and Longya, had frequent disputes, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.Some people came to pick early, but encountered a group of dragons, and the people in the boat were eaten up.After more than a hundred years of fighting like this, there is no result, but the dragon group has developed the habit of eating human flesh. Several dragon groups will not leave here even in summer, just waiting for the incense pickers to come.

Ye Guhong heard the rumors, looked at the stars and bones next to the ambergris under the sea, and couldn't help sighing: "All the people in the world love are flesh and blood."

Xie Yantang said: "The mouth has a good taste, the heart is full of joy and anger, the eyes are dazzled, the ears are dull, the body is greedy for pleasure, and the mind is chasing the outer edge. Most people in the world are like this, otherwise why are we practitioners so few?"

Another day, I went to a mountain, which stretched thousands of miles across the sea like screens.There are several gates in the mountain, and you can cross the boat in the middle.There are crowds gathered on the mountain, but they look like beasts. They don't wear clothes, don't wear their hair in a bun, they only wear leaves and knots to cover their front and back, and they don't have the ability to plant flowers.When they saw the boat coming, they rushed to chase it, crying and watching.

Ye Guhong checked the sea chart. The name of this mountain is Cuilanyu. Behind the mountain is the vast sea, which connects to the boundary sea.Boundary sea is the boundary of observing the Ming Dynasty and calming the heavens. The fog on the sea does not dissipate, and the sea is mysterious and unpredictable.There was such a record in the world's notebooks: In a certain day and year, a fisherman sailed on the sea and strayed into the sea fog because he was chasing a school of fish, and he disappeared from there.Everyone in the family thought he was dead, but who would have thought that the fisherman would come back from the sea in a boat decades later, with the same face as before, and was shocked to see his son and wife dead.When asked about his whereabouts, he found that he had only been in the fog for half a day, but when he returned, the world had changed, not the same as before.

The boundary sea is so unpredictable, and the two of them were absolutely unwilling to take the risk with their own lives. After traveling in the vast sea for several years, they returned by boat.When I came back, I still passed Cuilan Island, and I was surprised when I saw it.A few years ago, this place was still wild and wild, but now there are stretches of dry-wall high houses built in pavilions, and there are people dragging fishing nets by the water, and the cloth robes on their bodies look like middle-earth clothes.

Seeing the boat coming leisurely, the fishermen at the water's edge screamed and screamed. Not knowing what they were thinking, a dozen or so people surrounded them like hunting.Even Xie Yantang couldn't help being surprised at this time: "It's strange." A few years ago, he was still a man like a beast, but now he knows how to dress and build a house, and has tools.

Ye Guhong set the nuclear boat, "I'm afraid there are outsiders coming here." It's just that Cuilan Island is tens of thousands of miles away from Central Earth, and there is no boat in the world that can travel far here. What is the conduct of enlightenment.

While the two were wondering, the person who had gone back to report the letter had rushed over with a hundred people.The leader was riding a one-horned horse with saddles, stirrups, bridles, etc. Seeing Ye Guhong and Xie Yantang standing on the waves, they immediately rolled off their horses in shock.I don't know what he said, the others took a few steps back, leaving only the man in front, chirping, dancing and talking non-stop.Seemingly realizing that the words were not clear, he changed two or three tones in succession. Seeing that they still didn't understand, he scratched his ears anxiously, made many gestures, and finally looked at the two pitifully.

Ye Guhong turned his head sideways: "Brother, have you heard it?" They have also traveled around many places, but they have never heard the tone spoken by this man.

Xie Yantang shook his head.Although the language is not clear, but the shape of this person's clothing is similar to that of Zhongtu, and the tone of speech is also similar. If he did not come from Zhongtu, there is probably only one source.A golden light flashed in Ye Guhong's eyes, and in an instant he could clearly see the imprint of this person's past, so he called his maidservant to bring that person onto the boat.

The rest of the natives waited and watched, and when they saw that the leader wanted to leave with the others, they were shocked, some went to stop the leader, some raised their weapons and stared at Xie and Ye.The leader also showed reluctance, talked for a while, then took off the ring on his hand and handed it to one of them, endured it, and finally turned around.

Even though he couldn't speak the language, Ye Guhong understood the pain of life and separation. The natives seemed stupid, but they were very loyal to the leader. Seeing the nuclear boat flying away, they still stared at each other on the shore and refused to leave.After a long time, the servant girl brought someone over.The leader had washed and bathed, changed his clothes, and combed his hair into a bun. Although his skin was dark and rough, he had clear eyebrows and eyes, and a good temperament.

Seeing Ye Guhong sitting leisurely, the man was startled, he didn't know what posture to take, he hesitated for a moment, then leaned over and clasped his fists in a bow.The maidservants in the boat couldn't help laughing, Ye Guhong smiled, called him to the table, dipped a pen and handed it to him: "Can you read?"

Although he didn't understand, the man also understood that Ye Guhong was probably asking if he could write, but he had never used a brush before. In the past few years, he had just burnt charcoal sticks and scribbled. Holding a mountain, trembling.

Ye Guhong didn't urge him, he watched him think for a while, and wrote two extremely ugly words crookedly on the paper, probably he knew it was ugly, his face couldn't help turning red, he pointed at the words and at himself, and read it Once again, a mountain-like thing was drawn on the other side.Ye Guhong followed his tone and read it again: "Shan." Seeing him embracing him again, he smiled slightly and said, "Yes."

Shan nodded his head like a pounding garlic, and wrote another word, which was probably a surname. Ye Guhong thought about it, and watched the man read it slowly: "Hey, Shan, yes."

As soon as the words fell, I saw a burst of white light suddenly floating on the ink on the paper, and another glowing radiance was pulled down from the sky, and it went straight to Heshan. Yingying Xingzi, people, words, and stars are linked by light and air, appearing and disappearing from time to time, endlessly.

He Shan has a mortal body with naked eyes, so he can't see this radiant and blinding abnormality, but Ye Guhong can see it clearly. He Shan has educated the natives, so he has merits, but he didn't understand this world before. Language, identity is uncertain, now that the name is settled, it will establish a foothold in this world from now on.Later, Ye Guhong and Xie Yantang mentioned this matter, "The Mahayana method is applicable to everyone, and the attainment of blessings means the increase of Dao. He has the merit of teaching and enlightenment. As long as he does not fall into evil ways, he will be able to achieve perfection in the future."
