"Master, let's go back to the inn quickly!" , Li Si, who was dressed in a cyan cardigan and a high hat. Seeing that there were mostly soldiers collecting grain and grass on the street, he looked nervous.

This is his Chinese name! His original name was Muhammad Alitaban, a man of Abbasid. Three years ago, he was a sailor in Bandar Abbas. I met an old man from the north who recruited people to go to sea, so I followed the ship to work.

First, they arrived in Mumbai, west of Abbas. After replenishing some fresh water and food, he headed south to the island of Ceylon. It was a pagan country, with only a few Muslims who believed in Allah in the coastal trading ports.

Once ashore, he went to worship at a local mosque. Compared to the mosque at Abbas, the local temple is anything but imposing.

But it's good to let Allah hear your heart.

It's just that the master's every move makes him a little curious. Because the lord didn't buy commercial goods. I wandered around the area and bought rice seeds, flower seeds, sapphires, agate, birds, small beasts, and other miscellaneous items.

And he also paints against the coast, like a painter.

But he couldn't understand something! Because there are lines on it, it seems that the master's painting skills are not very good.

After staying like this for more than a month, the old man sailed eastward again. That's Srivijaya! A maritime power. Here, the lord stayed for six months. From the west bank port of March Qi Nanwuli to the old port on the east coast. Further east, it also reaches Chonggara on the eastern shore of the island of Java.

The local people are extremely tough, both good at paddling and running. In the lush forest, it is also like flying. Where there is a sea and a river, there are cities, villages and towns. The large paddy fields that have been reclaimed can be harvested three or even four times a year.

In addition, plum blossom slices of brain, cloves, sandalwood, cardamom and other things are produced, which are often traded by foreign merchants. Live in a house, mostly on the water. It is made of wood and is relatively simple.

The walls of the old port were dozens of miles long, and people came and went by boat. Due to the large number of merchant ships, local bandits often occupied one or two islands and made a living by plundering.

Originally, there were one hundred and sixty-four people on board, but in the fight with the pirates, more than twenty died. Later, it turned the bow of the ship and headed north, to Boni. It was a large land mass, and there were many villages near the coast.

But most of them are native villages, which are more vulgar and barbaric. There is not a single seaport of all sizes. After they landed, they were also plundered by the natives.

Fortunately, the old man was prepared, and he was able to avoid a danger.

Further north, they came to a group of islands called Suroku. The lord also personally found a large bay called Manila. The area is barren and uninhabited. The origin of the name was pronounced by the master himself.

And stayed in the local area for a long time, allowing people to explore the surrounding rivers and mountains.

It's just that the miasma there is especially uncomfortable! Nearly half of the accompanying crew members were infected with miasma. The old man used some herbs to heal, but the effect was not significant.

Continuing northward, they came to the port of Canton in the Song Kingdom. It was a bustling city, several times more lively than Baghdad, which he thought was the most prosperous.

It's a pity that the old man only stayed there for a few days, got some supplies, and continued north. During this period, I made a circumambulation on a large island called Taiwan. It is also a wild island similar to Manila, with few people on the coast.

The name was given by the master, and I don't know how he knew the location of this island.

On the opposite side of it is Quanzhou of the Song Kingdom. When he went to buy supplies, he had the pleasure of taking a few peeks outside the city. The walls are very tall and a hundred times more prosperous than Bandar Abbas.

It took them almost a month before they set sail. Passing through Lin'an, the capital of the Song Kingdom, can only be described in heaven and earth.

Because he swears! In his life, he had never seen such a prosperous, lively, and large-scale city. The lord stayed here for a while, and they were able to go into the city to have a look.

There are all kinds of rare things in it, and there is almost everything. His eyes were glazed over, and he felt that he hadn't seen enough.

It's just a pity that he doesn't have many dinars. Even if the master distributed a generous Song State reward to all the crew, he felt that it was not enough.

Later, when it came time to leave Lin'an, he was a little reluctant.

Then, to the north, he followed the shipowner to Dengzhou in the Kingdom of Jin. When he got here, he sold the ship and made a caravan. They dressed up and sold some of the goods they bought along the way. Passing through the central capital of Jinguo, he stayed for nearly half a month.

Although the prosperity there is not as good as Lin'an in the Song Kingdom in the south, it is not in decline. It's just that the one who rules there seems to be an alien race named Jurchen! Compared with the Song people, the local folk customs are much rougher.

Their commercial goods have not been less than forcibly bought and occupied by some Jurchen masters.

Originally, he thought that when he got here, the master should return west by boat. But unexpectedly, the old man had no intention of returning west. Instead, he took the caravan and headed north into the territory called Mongolia.

But due to the heavy snow blocking the road, the lord took them back to the border of the Jin Kingdom.

In a place called Datong Mansion, they spent the entire harsh winter. It was not until spring that it entered the territory of the Xia Kingdom.

Compared with the capital of the Jin Kingdom, the capital of the Xia Kingdom can only be compared with the Datong Mansion. Not to mention Lin'an, it is simply a heaven and an underground.

He stayed there for only a few days, but the trade route was blocked due to the threat of the Mongols from the north. Therefore, the old man could only take them to the west, planning to return to the crane and enter the territory of Daliao.

For Da Liao, he still heard of it. So he knew at that time that the old man had taken them around in a big circle.

But at this juncture, the Mongols and the Xia Kingdom went to war. They just happened to march to Xiliang Mansion and were helplessly trapped in the city.

I don't know what to think! At such times, as usual, they walked around the city. And buy some worthless seeds, farm tools, etc. I heard that a horse doctor had good medical skills, and I went to the door to ask him for advice.

Today is the day of the visit, and I insist on visiting the door.

Hearing Li Si's persuasion at the moment, the old man Li Dahai shook his head again and again, and said righteously: "No! I've discussed with the horse doctor and bought the horse medicine today. How can you get to this point, give up halfway. With that, Li Dahai walked forward quickly.

"But sir! If we are recognized by them, it will be troublesome! Li Si pushed aside a few pedestrians scurrying in front of him and caught up with the road. It is also their nose bridge that is on the high side, and their facial features are more profound.

At a glance, it is different from the ordinary people of the Xia Kingdom. and nine feet tall, and his body was strong. Walking down the street, it is very impressive.

I just don't want to attract attention, it's a little difficult.

A few days ago, the Xia people searched for Mongolian spies in the city. Many businessmen who came back to dress up suffered a catastrophe. In order to hide people's eyes, they deliberately put on the service of the Xia people, but they didn't want to attract people's eyes.
