The language spoken by the old man is somewhat similar to Chinese, but it is completely different.

However, Bai Qi was completely able to understand it, and when they set foot on the land of the Eastern Continent, they automatically mastered the language of the Eastern Continent.

But Bai Qi still ordered Barian and Qin Qing to use all-night language on him and the old man, and now that there were other soldiers around him, he couldn't show that he could understand the old man's language.

Perhaps it was because he saw the magic aura in the hands of Barian and the others, the old man's face changed slightly, his attitude became more respectful, and he arched his hand again and said: "I don't know that there is a master to control it, the little old man is negligent, please forgive me." ”

After speaking, the old man turned around and ordered, "Come, quickly open the door to the master." ”

After listening to the old man's instructions, the gate of the village was quickly opened, and the villagers welcomed Bai Qi and the others in.

The old man led the people to a large house in the middle of the village and invited them to sit down.

Bai Qi then asked who those people were just now and why they attacked the village.

The old man was obviously surprised that he was able to understand Bai Qi's completely different and unfamiliar language, and Bai Qi could only explain to him that it was the effect of the spell.

Obviously, there are also beings who can cast spells in the Eastern Continent, the old man suddenly realized, and his attitude towards Bai Qi was more respectful, and said: "So that the master knows that the group of people just now are horse thieves in the Beiheng Mountain in the north, known as the ghost horse ......."

Speaking of this, the old man sighed and said: "Now that the power of the Great Zhou Tianzi has fallen, the heroes have risen together, and the world has been in chaos for a long time, this Beihai Prefecture is located in the northeast corner, and it was still stable a few years ago, but last autumn, the Wuhe tribe in the north suddenly raised troops to invade the south, and the king of Beihai transferred soldiers from various counties and counties. Replenish the army under his command, resulting in the emptiness of the defenses in various places. The horse-walking thieves in the Beiheng Mountains took the opportunity to make trouble, and stirred up a good miasma in the North Sea. This gang of thieves just now is the most notorious group of ghost horses among the horse walking thieves, if it weren't for the master's rescue, I'm afraid our Liujia Village would be ......."

After listening to Uncle Liu's words, Bai Qi felt that this old man seemed to be an ordinary villager from time to time, so he asked: "I don't think my husband is an ordinary person, if he is an ordinary villager, I'm afraid he doesn't have the knowledge of my father-in-law?" ”

The old man said with three points of modesty and seven points of pride: "The surname of the contemptible person is Liu, and the name is Cong." The word Zhengrui, is the great Zhou Chengping seven years of the people, previously was the county of Linhai County, two months ago, seeing that the world is getting more and more chaotic, he resigned, and returned to the township to plan to settle a village to protect himself, I didn't expect the world to be chaotic so quickly, a month ago. The city wall of Liujia Village has not been repaired, and the ghost horse has broken through Linhai County, Wanghai Town. ”

"As soon as Wanghai Town is broken, this Linhai County will not have the strength to resist the ghost horses. This group of horse thieves looted everywhere, but I didn't expect to rob my remote village so quickly. ”

After speaking, Mr. Liu tentatively asked about the identities of Bai Qi and the others. Bai Qi had already thought deeply about this question, and he said: "We are the east side of the sea. An envoy group named the Suss Kingdom heard about the Great Zhou Tianwei. Our king was very eager to send my lord to pay tribute and worship. ”

Uncle Liu was a little surprised when he heard this, and asked, "I only heard that there is Penglai Country on the east side of the sea, but I haven't heard of other countries?" ”

Bai Qi said: "To the east of the sea, three months away, there is a continent, where the Sus Kingdom is. ”

Uncle Liu's eyes widened, stretched out three fingers, and asked in disbelief, "Three months of flight?" ”

Bai Qi said: "That's right, my lord led eight large ships and sailed on the vast sea for three full months before arriving at the coast tonight, and sent me and others to go ashore to explore the way, looking for the Great Zhou Mansion, so as to ask to land ashore." ”

Uncle Liu was stunned for a long time, and seemed to be a little skeptical, and finally he sighed and said: "It's not a pity that you have come, now even the life and death of the Great Zhou Tianzi are uncertain......

Bai Qi also sighed and said, "Who said it wasn'......"

After a moment of silence, Bai Qi waved his hand and said: "Let's not talk about this, I have been drifting at sea for three months, and the freshwater food I brought has been exhausted, and many of the crew members are sick and urgently need to go ashore to recuperate. ”

Uncle Liu nodded and said: "Tolerance, tolerance, the depth of the bay is more than ten zhang, no matter how big the ship can be, where is your fleet, I will ask someone to lead them in, and go ashore on the dock outside the village, I will let people prepare wine and food, and entertain the envoys." ”

Bai Qi waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but this time my family has brought many subordinates, and I am afraid that the village will not be able to entertain ......."

Uncle Liu said: "I don't know how many servants your envoy has brought?" ”

Bai Qi said: "More than two thousand. ”

Uncle Liu was surprised: "There are so many? ”

Bai Qi said: "If not, how can we show my king's reverence for the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou?" ”

When Uncle Liu heard this, he thought that the world of the Great Zhou would be overwhelmed and sighed.

After that, Uncle Liu said: "My six villages are only four or five hundred dingkou, and I really can't entertain so many people, how can this be good?" ”

Bai Qi said: "Don't bother with my father-in-law, just lend us the wasteland in the north of the village as a camp, and we will be grateful." ”

Uncle Liu said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's just slacking." ”

Bai Qi: "Then thank you, uncle." ”

The two agreed, Bai Qi assigned two soldiers, and took a village fisherman called by Liu Laozhang to sail out to sea overnight to lead the way for the fleet.

More than two hours later, eight large ships slowly sailed into the bay.

Watching the eight mountain-like warships slowly sail into the bay, Liu Laozhang sighed: "It seems that your country is also a big country, such a big ship, in the heyday of my Great Zhou, there were also there, these years of national strength is declining, such a big ship has become more and more rare, your country can build such a big ship, it shows that the country is strong!" ”

Bai Qi smiled slightly and complimented: "Da Zhou is a big deal, so such a warship is naturally not a problem." ”

This bay is indeed a natural deep-water harbor, and the warship did not anchor until it was very close to the shore, and under the command of Liu Laozhang, the fishermen of Liujia Village drove the sampan to pick up the crew of the big ship ashore.

The first to go ashore were, of course, Count André and Bishop Christopher, as well as the four knights.

Bai Qi hurriedly stepped forward and brought Count Andre to Old Uncle Liu.

Listening to Bai Qi's introduction, the tall, blond-haired, blue-eyed, weather-covered person in front of him was an earl, and Uncle Liu hurriedly saluted.

Bai Qi once explained the Western title to Liu Laozhang, and Liu Laozhang linked this title with the fifth-class title of the Great Zhou, in the title level of the Great Zhou, the earl is equivalent to the third rank of the imperial court, and the status is extremely respected.

Of course, what makes Uncle Liu so respectful is mainly the eight giant ships in the bay, otherwise an earl of a small state would not be worthy of Uncle Liu's respect.

Andre was also very polite and thought that Uncle Liu made a noble salute. (To be continued......)
