After the Mongol and Yuan dynasties came to power, the highly developed feudal society in the original Song and Jin regions degenerated into a semi-feudal and semi-slave society. Tens of millions of people were enslaved. Especially at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, human trafficking became a bulk trade.

The Yuan Dynasty continued to revolt and wars were frequent. Every time the Mongol army went on an expedition, it forcibly captured a large number of civilians and prisoners of war as slaves, or divided or sold them, which was called "expulsion". "Mongolian officials" show their wealth by "driving their mouths".

There are big slave owners like "Pu Daguanren" everywhere.

The Yuan Dynasty was as harsh as a tiger and forced as a mountain, resulting in a large number of displaced people. "Yuan History-Household Registration" records that "there is one of the three homeless people", and the homeless people account for one-third of the population!

Zhao Tianlin, the minister of the Yuan Dynasty, said: "The fugitives are all helpless people, if they can survive, how can they escape." "You can see it.

Liu Bingzhong once wrote to Kublai Khan: "The difference is very big, the officials are begging, and the people are unbearable, so they are fleeing a lot." ”

It is recorded in the "Purple Mountain Collection": "Today is still the same, what will be tomorrow." My flesh and blood are unbearable to pay taxes, and it is better to live and flee than to die by closing my mouth. ”

These two factors provided great convenience for Li Luo to emigrate to the sea, and gave him the confidence that he would move hundreds of thousands of displaced people to Baodao within five years without attracting the attention of the Yuan court.

Just like now, this naval patrol obviously saw him carrying so many people, but he didn't care at all, of course, it was commonplace.

So, soon the other party let it go. Li Luo once again ordered the sails to be hoisted and the ship sailed.

Along the way, he met many islands, and Li Luo wondered if it was the destination every time, but he was vetoed by Cui Xiuning.

On the morning of the fifth day, the fleet had already entered the waters of Taizhou, and encountered the patrol navy of the Taizhou Thousand Households, but the other party boarded the ship to search and inspect, and finally let it go after spending two silver bottles.

"It's soon, there are still more than ten nautical miles, and Dachen Island will definitely be found in the afternoon at the latest!" Cui Xiuning looked at the island map and said.

Li Luo's spirits perked up, "It's best to find military supplies today, load them on the ship as soon as possible, and then go straight to Treasure Island!" ”

Cui Xiuning came out of the cabin, found the captain Park Hae-sung, and told him to fine-tune the sail rudder and go straight to the southeast.

Captain Pu Haisheng went to sea at a young age, is a veteran sailor who has been sailing for 30 years, has gone to Japan and Zhejiang many times, has rich experience, and has long had the ability to be a captain, but he has been working hard for maritime merchants to make a living, and life is not easy.

Li Luo used a monthly salary of eight times regardless of whether he went to sea or not, which immediately made him grateful for the effectiveness of the sting. even brought dozens of bitter sailors and boatmen, which solved the problem of Li Luo's lack of navigators at once.

The captains and sailors on the "Mayflower" and "Golden Deer" were all introduced by Park Hae-sung and had a lot of experience.

Park Hae-sang received Cui Xiuning's order, and immediately commanded the rudder to change the sail, and the sail was adjusted in just two minutes.

The "Success" was the pilot ship, and as soon as it fine-tuned its direction, the captains of the other three ships immediately followed.

Along the way, several small islands appeared in the field of vision again, but Cui Xiuning ignored them, just standing motionless on the bow of the boat, staring ahead energetically. The sea breeze blew her hair and clothes and fluttered so that she seemed to be ready to fly away at any moment.

Li Luo's face was pale, like a weak sick man. Yan Falcon and others, who were alive and well before, were even more depressed, as if they were seriously ill. They don't have Cui Xiuning's massage therapy, and their condition is much worse than Li Luo.

Of course, there are many people who don't get seasick. Otherwise, once you encounter pirates, won't you be slaughtered by others?

"Madame is really a celestial being!"

Yan Falcon couldn't help but say to Yan Tong.

Yan Tong also said: "Isn't it? Madame is so fairy, and only our wolf master can match it. ”

The two of them each said a word and shut up.

Because...... I want to vomit, but I don't have the strength to say more.

On the sea, you can see the island twenty miles away from the bow of the ship. Cui Xiuning didn't need a boat to find Dachen Island accurately. As long as Dachen Island enters this discovered range, she can lean over.

After almost an hour, a looming island slowly came into view, and only a rough outline could be seen.

Cui Xiuning stared at the island that was getting clearer and clearer, judged it for a while according to the distance, compared it with the chart, and then turned back to give Li Luo a tacit affirmative look.

Li Luo suddenly understood.

"The island ahead, the more you look at it, the more familiar it becomes!" Half an hour later, Li Luo suddenly said loudly, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Yan Tong and the others also cheered up, and they all stared at Li Luo a little excitedly.

Li Luo looked at the island, his eyes gradually showed surprise, as if he couldn't believe it, then turned into joy, and finally laughed.

"Hahaha, it's really a dream of Lao Jun! Isn't this the island I dreamed of? ”

At this time, the island was already very close, only seven or eight miles away, and the outline could be seen clearly.

This is the island depicted on the quartermaster map!

When everyone looked at it, there was a pair of stone pinnacles side by side on the island, didn't it look like a pair of bull's horns?

The wolf lord said that the old gentleman asked him to go to the Niujiao Peak to look for military supplies, isn't this all right?

"Congratulations to the wolf lord! Congratulations ma'am! ”

Everyone was surprised and delighted, the wolf lord really has the help of gods and men!

Li Luo waved his hand, "Wait!" The island is exactly the same as in the dream, but there may not be anything real. ”

Ah Shan said: "Don't worry, the wolf lord must be there!" Since Lao Jun has a dream, he naturally will not let the wolf master rejoice. ”

Li Luo was apprehensive in his heart, what if someone took the lead and took it first? Don't pretend that you can't force it to make an oolong incident, which will affect morale.

After another half hour, the fleet finally came to the edge of the island and found a suitable place to stop and board the ship and drop anchor.

Li Luo and Cui Xiuning led more than 100 people to the island with weapons in hand, and the others stayed on the ship to wait for news.

As soon as he stepped on the field, Yan Falcon's seasick complexion began to recover.

This is a small island within a radius of several miles, with abundant vegetation in the middle, and the side is mainly a stone peak cave, and the pair of horn-like stone pinnacles are just a hundred meters away, very close.

A large flock of seabirds in the vicinity was alarmed and flew up, spreading from near to far in turn, and flocks of birds flew high one after another everywhere on the island.

Obviously, this is an uninhabited island.

Li Luo said as he walked: "Yes, yes, this is the place, I have been here more than once in my dreams, it's really weird!" ”

Cui Xiuning was very cooperative with his performance, and Zhengse asked, "Really, yes?" ”

Li Luo nodded affirmatively: "It's exactly the same, it won't be wrong." ”

Soon, everyone came to the bottom of the two stone peaks. This pair of pinnacles is more than 30 meters high, connected at the bottom, and there are several caves below. One of the caves was more than a foot wide, but it was blocked by a pile of stones, and if you didn't pay attention, you really couldn't see anything abnormal.

When everyone saw this big cave that had been artificially blocked, they immediately became excited.

There must be something inside!

"Get the rocks out of the way!" Li Luo ordered.

Everyone worked together to dig up the stone, and immediately revealed a huge natural space.
