"What's wrong?"

Looking at Erli's somewhat sluggish expression, Purple asked again.

"I didn't ...... It's just a dream...

Are we there yet? ”

She didn't want Zi to worry too much, so she immediately changed the topic, and Zi saw that she didn't want to say anything, so she continued the topic just now.

"Well, yes.

The mainland can already see it. ”

Ellie sat up, but instead of going out, she opened a gap in the roof of the boat.

It was true that it was possible to see what it looked like, but it was still a certain distance from the shore, and Ellie estimated that it was about fifteen miles, and they had lowered their sails, and stretched out their oars, and were heading that way.

But at the same time, black smoke was faintly rising from the shore over there, and Ellie couldn't see a little bit of fire very clearly. And Zi directly used the gap, and those people erected a firewood tower, and through the thick smoke to draw the attention of the surrounding troops to the situation here.

"Will there be any confusion?"

From the gap on the other side, Purple saw Erli's gap, and hers was also hanging in the air, so Purple said to her.

Ellie shook her head, and instead withdrew the gap and tidied up the house.

"Don't worry, the Sui Kingdom is not so chaotic."

"That's good."

Indeed, as she had said, before the ship could get close to the shore, the militia had already gathered, and although there was no armor, the weapons that looked obsolete were still as good as new, as if they had just been forged.

There were about a hundred and ten people here, led by a middle-aged man, and the leader did not draw his weapon, but looked at the ship in the distance, and his clothes were still clean, but there was an ancient long sword pinned to his left waist.

"It's not like a ship of this dynasty......"

He muttered, his left hand pressed against his sword, while his right hand lifted his short cyan beard.

"Did you have a fire?"

"It's already ordered, and in another hour, the officers and soldiers should arrive."

"That's fine."

One of the people inside replied, his expression was very serious, and the middle-aged man also nodded, and turned his head to the approaching ship over there, and the person who answered just now asked cautiously.

"Elder Wang, this isn't a Goguryeo ship?"

"No, Goguryeo will not attack from here.

However, a boat may not be a big deal. ”

"That'...... What are we doing here? ”

Another slightly younger voice said this, but as soon as he finished speaking, he was pressed down by the people around him, as if he was very dissatisfied with this person's reaction, especially his attitude towards this Elder Wang.

However, the middle-aged man didn't intend to delve into this, just looked at him strangely, and then said.

"I didn't say that a boat can't destroy a township.

The great event is nothing more than the loss of the city, and even if we use all our resources, we cannot move a single bit.

However, if it is a matter of plunder, if we ignore it, then it will become a lure of wolves? ”

Everyone didn't speak, just looked at Elder Wang.

"Because of this, I let the patriarch of the Chen clan light the beacon fire, if the hometown can't compete, that is, it will be handed over to the official family.

If it is something else, wouldn't it be better to leave it to the official? ”

"What the elder said is..."

A few people echoed this compliment, but the elder only replied politely, and then stared at the sea.

There are only 20 cronies he brought, and if something happens, it seems that the hundreds of people who can be relied on are actually no more than half, but bringing in so many people is nothing more than a full number and courage, and it can also give himself room for negotiation.

The ships got closer and closer, but they were still some distance away from this side before they were at anchor - there was no harbor here that could accommodate them, and there were at most a few small fishing boats to be placed there. Then it lowered a few more boats, on which were still some people.

After waiting for twenty minutes, the three boats approached the shore on this side, because they were all sandy beaches, and after getting off the boats, they left a few men to tow the boats to the shore, in case they would take the boats away at high tide.

"Dare to ask the elder, I don't know if this place can be the Sui Kingdom?"

Ono Meizi got off the ship with some envoys and the retainers of the Qin family, and when she saw the militia with weapons, the retainers and guards immediately drew their weapons and waited for them.

Ono himself respectfully bowed to the elder in front of him without the slightest hesitation, while the few guards around Ono did not move, but stared at the leader opposite.

"This place is the land of my Great Sui, who are you?"

"Shut up!"

It was the reckless young man again, and this time Elder Wang roared out directly, without the idea of dignity, which really annoyed him.

“……”

The young man, who was shocked by the inexplicable momentum of the middle-aged man, stopped talking, and his expression was a little embarrassed; At this time, Elder Wang returned the salute and said.

"This place is under the jurisdiction of Jimo County, Dasui County, I am the head of Aoshan Township, and the king is under the control of the king

I don't know where the guest is from? ”

"In Shimosu Ingao, from the country of Yamato in the East.

On behalf of King Yamato Nutabe and Prince Regent, I hereby request to meet with the Emperor of Sui. ”

Looks like a civilized person, and ...... is familiar with the official language, and the language is appropriate, which naturally won the trust of the township chief, but these are not enough, so.

"That's... Instead, please wait with peace of mind, and the officers and soldiers will then guide you to the prefectural office, and then meet the saint. ”

"That's fine...... But dare to ask Elder Wang, I don't know where to moor? ”

There are no special expressions.

After Wang Qi took a closer look, he nodded, they didn't look like they had come to loot, so there was no need to be so nervous. The township chief made a gesture to signal that the person behind him was relaxed, and also answered Ono's question.

"Naturally, the officers and soldiers will take the adults to a nearby place where they can be anchored;

If you have something important, you can walk along the north shore to Dongnae County, where there is a Mingang for adults to rest and go. ”

"With the guidance of the officials, that is naturally a good thing.

I'd better wait here to avoid the suspicion of misdeeds and trouble with the elders. ”

As he spoke, Ono saluted Wang Yan again, as if he was very sorry, while Wang Yan stepped forward and wanted to help the other party, but when he saw the guards around him, he only took two or three steps and stopped.

"Nothing... We have already lit a beacon fire, so naturally we have to talk to the officials about it, otherwise it will also be a matter of military law. ”

……

"We can go now, right?"

When Purple put down the gap to observe by Ono's side, she whispered to Erli that since she had now arrived in the Sui Kingdom, there was no need to stay on the human side.

However, Erlik didn't have this plan yet, and after she put the materials that Qing'e had sorted out before on the other side again, she looked at Zi.

"Wait, I'm going to have to buy all the things above.

There are some things that are not available to Ono as a human. ”
