"The thieves who haunt the seas are called pirates or pirates." In the Xianxia Pass, Zhang Kan talked eloquently: "And the southeast ocean of my Heavenly Dynasty is the abyss of the sea, and the thieves and thieves on the sea gather, and there are often covers." ”

The sea is different from the land, and the way of life given by the two is also different, the continent is the land of crops, animal husbandry and industry and commerce, and the ocean is the domain of fish and salt, and the sea is the domain of fish and salt, and boating. The sea is rich in products, including the production of birds, wood, and stone, the benefits of gold, tin, salt, and iron, the treasure of pearls and scales, and the people's real assets.

However, with the development of the maritime trade, there were pirates who infested the seas.

The coastline of the southeast coastal area of the Song Dynasty stretches for thousands of miles, with many excellent harbors and many islands in the sea hanging lonely on the sea, and the routes extend in all directions, and the transportation is convenient, providing an ideal gathering place for pirates.

"The Fujian Road and the Sea Road connect the two Zhejiang provinces in the north, and reach Guangnan in the south, and the thieves shout from the front to plunder the remote distance, and the people and ships are a little crowded, that is, they break into the road." Zhang Kan continued: "Therefore, in Fujian Road, especially in Quanzhou, pirates are particularly rampant. Those who came from the north entered from the Wenzhou boundary into Tongpan Mountain and Banyang Valley, and those who came from the south came from the Xinghua boundary into Nanxiao Mountain and Nanzhizhai. Since entering here, Hantou, Yingxian, Jiangkou, Yande, Shangyu, Langao, Xiaolian and other places are places where merchant ships are robbed. ”

After Zhang Kan finished speaking, Li Sanjian pondered for a long time and asked, "Why do pirates allow people?" Or who is committed to being a thief? ”

"Back to Li Fuzun's words." When Zhang Kan heard this, he replied: "There are people of all walks of life, and they are mainly ordinary people along the coast, among whom the poor peasant households who cultivate the land with little land and the fishermen who make a living from the sea. ”

"They have a good life, but why do they take risks and stoop to thieves?" Li Sanjian groaned.

"The reasons are complex." Zhang Kan replied: "There may be grievances that are difficult to redress, and those who are in the middle of it; or there are those who are miscalculated, and are in the trap; or those who have knowledge of Feng Shui, who can be tempted by Kou; There are relatives who have been detained and are involved in the detainment. ”

"There are also a few who are confused by profit, and the Gu people are thieves, right?" Li Sanjian asked.

"What Li Fuzun said is very true." Zhang Kan arched his hand.

Zhang Kan suddenly stopped calling him a brother, which made Li Sanjian a little puzzled in his heart.

Li Sanjian glanced at Zhang Kan and sighed: "It seems that if you want to pacify the thief, you must first calm the people, if you want to govern the sea, you will rule the land first." If the people of Shishu have a good life, who is willing to stoop to be a thief? ”

"What Li Fuzun said is extremely true!" Zhang Kan, Yao Yu, Xu Shuwei, Li Gang and others responded together.

Although Li Sanjian is young, he is worthy of being the champion of the Great Song Dynasty, and he can see at a glance the key to the matter of pirates, that is, to cut off the relationship between pirates and inextricable links, making them a tree without roots and water without a source.

Everyone thought of it in their hearts.

However, this is easier said than done, the pirates are almost natives of the coast, how easy is it to cut off their relationship?

"Click, click, click!"

At this moment, three thunders suddenly sounded in the air, and after the thunder, the heavy rain poured down from the sky as if the sky had fallen.

The raindrops of beans fell on the ground, making a crackling sound, and at the same time, the entire Xianxia Pass was shrouded in a fog, and the scenery of Xianxia Pass was more beautiful.

"The sky in Fujian is said to change!" Uncle Xu looked at the pouring rain and sighed.

"The road is going to get harder and harder." Li Sanjian didn't have the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Xianxia Pass at this time, but just looked at the heavy rain and said depressedly.

Li Sanjian went to Quanzhou from Kaifeng Mansion in Beijing, and it has been more than three months, but he has not yet arrived in Quanzhou, which is due to Li Sanjian's reasons and the difficult road.

"Li Fuzun don't worry, when the heavy rain stops tomorrow, the young general will escort Li Fuzun to Quanzhou." Zhang Kan saw Li Sanjian sighing, so he said to Li Sanjian.

"In this way, thank you Brother Dare." Li Sanjian said happily when he heard this.

Li Sanjian was not happy that Zhang Kan ordered someone to escort him, but that he was happy that someone was a guide to guide Li Sanjian and others.

Although Li Sanjian's younger brother Li Gang is called a guide, he has never been to Quanzhou a few times.

。。。。。。。。。。

Bijia Mountain, Hui'an County, Quanzhou

Purple Mountain Bijia Mountain is located at the junction of Hui'an and Quangang, and is the highest peak in Hui'an. The three peaks at the top of the mountain are connected, like a beacon, and Beacon Hill is named after it. On weekdays, the red flowers here are all over the field, the new green is full of mountains, the streams are murmuring, and the forests are bursting, and the scenery is particularly beautiful.

However, at this time, due to the heavy rain for three consecutive days, the stream of a stream under Beacon Hill swelled, and the stream became a stream. . . , a quiet stream on weekdays suddenly turned into a rushing river.

The swelling water of the stream mixed with mud, sand, stones, branches, etc., rushed down, hitting the banks and making loud noises one after another.

"Can you cross this river?" At this time, several young men wearing hats and robes came to the stream, and one of them, a man in his twenties, looked at the rushing stream and frowned and asked. Let's read the book

"Back to the Prime Minister's words." Another man replied, "You can cross this stream on foot on weekdays, but today the water is so big... Without a boat, it is a thousand difficulties. ”

Several people in this line are Li Sanjian, Li Gang, Xu Biao, Yao Yu and others.

After the heavy rain stopped, Li Sanjian and others left Xianxia Pass and entered Quanzhou within a few days.

I never thought that after Li Sanjian and others entered Quanzhou, it rained heavily and rained for three days, which made the trip of Li Sanjian and others more and more difficult.

The heavy rain kept falling, and Li Sanjian was in a hurry to rush to Quanzhou, so Li Sanjian temporarily left Fu Erniang, Cai Rongxue and other family members in a nunnery, and asked Sankui and others to protect them, and then rushed to Quanzhou when the rain stopped.

After Li Sanjian made the arrangements, he took the guides sent by Li Gang, Xu Biao and Zhang Kan to cross Beacon Mountain in the heavy rain, but was blocked by the stream that was flooded.

"Boat?" Li Sanjian looked around sullenly and asked, "Isn't there a ferryman here on weekdays?" ”

"This little river is called Golden Whip Creek." The guide sent by Zhang Kan replied: "On weekdays, the stream is shallow, and it can be crossed on foot, so there are no ferrymen. ”

"Chop some wood and tie it into a raft to cross the Golden Whip Creek." Li Gang said after dipping his hands into the stream.

"No!" Li Sanjian glared at Li Gang after hearing this.

At present, Li Sanjian and others not to mention that they can't find ropes to tie rafts at all, and even cutting wood is extremely difficult. Cutting wood requires sharp, heavy knives and axes, and it is impossible to cut wood with the sword in your hand.

Even if Li Sanjian and the others desperately cut some wood, and then look for ropes to make rafts, such a toss will definitely consume a lot of time, so it is really better to wait until the rain breaks and the water recedes, and then rush to Quanzhou.

"In the Qingming season, the flowers are fragrant, and the tea mountains are green; My sister went up the mountain to pick tea leaves, and my brother went to the field to plant seedlings. ”

"Brother is planting rice in the field, always looking up at the hills; My brother has the intention of looking at my sister, but my sister has no intention of looking at my brother. ”

“。。。。。。。。”

Just when Li Sanjian and the others were hesitating, suddenly there was a burst of singing from above the water, the singing voice turned euphemistically and sounded, and it seemed to be extremely sweet and lingering, as if a man and a woman were singing love songs.

At the same time, love songs are not Chinese, but a language that Li Sanjian and others do not understand.

"This is... Although Li Sanjian's ancestral home is Shao Wuren on Fujian Road, when did he come to Fujian Road before? How can you understand the local "local dialect"?

However, although Li Sanjian couldn't understand the lyrics, he also felt a little red-faced, so he turned his head to look at Li Gang and asked.

"This..." Li Gang listened sideways for a moment and then said, "This seems to be She's language? ”

"She? What is She? Li Sanjian asked in confusion when he heard this.

"Of course, the She language is the language of the She people." Li Gang replied.

Nonsense, Li Sanjian glared at Li Gang when he heard this, of course She is the language of She people, Li Sanjian actually wants to ask what is She people or She people?

"The She people originated from the 'Wuxi Man' in the Han and Jin dynasties, and they are of the same origin as the Yao people." Li Gang saw Li Sanjian's puzzled appearance, so he explained: "She people have moved to Fujian Road, Guangnan Road, Liangzhejiang Road and other places since the Tang Yongtai period, and most of them live in Fujian Road. Merely... In broad daylight, actually... Wulingman is Wulingman, and it is immoral! ”

"What's offending to morals?" Li Sanjian slapped Li Gang and said: "It's just a love song, how can it be moral?" The song came from the water, and they must have a boat, and they came to ask if they could carry us across the river. ”

It is the same origin as the Yao people, Li Gang said so, and Li Sanjian probably understood.

Of course, Quanzhou is different from the capital Kaifeng Mansion, Quanzhou is a place where many ethnic groups gather, and Li Sanjian has long known this.

At this time, Li Sanjian, as the governor of Quanzhou, should of course understand these things.

However, at this time, the top priority was to rush to Quanzhou as soon as possible to take up his post, so Li Sanjian urged Li Gang and others.

So Li Gang, Xu Biao, Yao Yu and others, under the urging of Li Sanjian, didn't care about appreciating the love songs that made people blush, and hurriedly looked forward along the riverbank.

Everyone turned over a hill, and sure enough, they found a simple bamboo raft on a riverbank, the bamboo raft was made of more than a dozen real bamboos with thorny bamboo, about two lengths and several feet wide, the thick end of the bamboo made the raft head high, and the thin end made the raft tail to spread the water surface.

The simple bamboo raft floated steadily on the water, and on the bamboo raft stood two young people, a man and a woman, the man was about 20 years old, and the woman was about 15 or 6 years old, wearing She costumes. Holding a long pole, while holding a bamboo raft, he is singing a love song that makes people blush.

It's really hard to find a place to step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it! Li Sanjian was overjoyed when he saw this.
