Let's say that Wang Ze complained about his father in his heart, Xiao Jing also muttered in his heart, "I said that I was short of food and clothing just now, and now I will bring dozens of ducks!" Is this a slap in the face? ”

It turned out that in the 'spring' day, the cottage organized all the idle young and strong, 'women', 'women', old and young to catch the migratory birds flying north.

In addition to tens of thousands of wild ducks alive, hundreds of geese and dozens of whooper swans were also caught. Of course, at least 100,000 birds of various colors were sent into everyone's stomachs because they were not suitable for breeding, leaving only these wild ducks, swans, and geese to raise.

The wild duck on the case has been raised and raised by the seedlings hatched from the first batch of duck eggs laid this year, and it seems that it is already one and a half catties.

As long as there is no plague in this winter, then the entire cottage and each village can have more than 100,000 birds, which is equivalent to dozens of 'chickens' and ducks in a family.

This is an amazing statistic, in addition to providing enough 'meat' energy for the homeless people, the guards of the cottage can also have enough 'meat' and eggs to ensure the energy needed for training.

Even last month, two or three groups of bandits in the vicinity heard that the food in the cottage was good, and they actually took the initiative to come to run.

In the following days, Xiao Jing and others patiently waited for the snow sugar to be processed, and found the newly produced snow salt in the salt fields by the sea, and now there were more goods to be purchased.

Before the Northern Song Dynasty, especially from the late Northern and Southern Dynasties to the early Sui and Tang dynasties, the best silk in China was in the north, and the most famous was the Lu silk produced in Luzhou and the green silk produced in Qingzhou.

However, many of the Lu silk is specially bought by the old people of the rich and noble families to make shrouds, so the rich and noble people are more likely to buy Qingzhou silk with the same name as Lu silk. At this time, the quality and reputation of Qingzhou silk were even above the Chengdu Shu brocade in Yizhou in the Southern Dynasty.

After seven or eight days like this, Xiao Jing and the others finally bought all the goods.

In addition to the goods purchased in other areas, the goods of the cottage were pulled away hundreds of catties of snow sugar, a hundred stones of snow salt in jars, and thousands of catties of pig iron smelted from the cottage.

This time, Zhu Rui did not go to the Southern Dynasty with Xiao Jing and others, and the fleet was led by Wang Yong's old subordinates Sun Xing and Qu Liulang, and the two led the team together to send Xiao Jing and others to the Southern Dynasty, and the fleet was a cottage.

However, when Xiao Jing and the others returned, the Taoist priest who followed Xiao Jing to the cottage did not leave together, and said to Wang Yong: "Big leader, Xiaodao knows that Xiao Langjun 'wants' to seek great things, and he is not talented in the poor way, so he is willing to help!" ”

One sentence made Wang Yong 'touch' his mind, so he asked cautiously, "This Taoist chief doesn't know what my son's 'desire' is?" ”

The Taoist priest pointed to the sky and said with a smile: "Don't say, don't say!" ”

Wang Yong hurriedly put down the Taoist priest's fingers, "This Taoist chief can't 'mess around', Hugh has to cause a big disaster for us!" Although we are the remnants of the Northland, we also know how can the people of the mountains and wild grasses ascend to this throne? ”

"Don't panic, the commander, the poor Dao 'wants' to talk to Xiao Langjun about important matters, I don't know if it's okay?" The middle-aged Taoist priest said unhurriedly.

Wang Yong thought about it and agreed, but asked himself to sit on the side.

As soon as the Taoist priest saw Wang Ze, he shouted loudly: "Xiao Langjun doesn't know that the catastrophe is coming, don't you? ”

Wang Ze, who had just been called by Wang Yong, glanced at him and ignored him, and found a soft cushion to sit down, so that he had time to deal with this Taoist priest: "I know it or not, but I have nothing to hinder, but the four hundred and eighty temples of the Southern Dynasty, I don't know where my brother's Taoism and sect 'gate' are?" ”

In a word, Wang Ze blocked the Taoist priest there, but the Taoist priest didn't mind, laughed, and sat on a cushion next to him.

The Taoist priest said to Wang Ze: "Hehe, Xiao Langjun is a good idea, but I am afraid that Xiao Jing will send so many shipwrights to Xiao Langjun, and Emperor Liang will not be able to use the money and grain exchanged for those sugars." ”

This year, he colluded with the Western Wei Dynasty to kill his sixth brother Xiao Ji and his eighth brother Xiao Jing, so that Liang Erzhou became the land of the Western Wei Dynasty. This year, Chen Ba waited for him to regain his health, and Emperor Liang was worried and did not dare to go to health. Now that Jiangling has become a border land, Emperor Liang doesn't know it, and he just wants to kill himself! Wang Ze didn't bother to raise his eyelids.

"I don't know why my brother is here? Don't say any more of the intimidating words! Wang Ze also unceremoniously exposed his purpose.

The Taoist priest listened to Wang Ze's words and smiled silently, got up and opened a wooden box outside the 'door', and the box was about three feet less than three feet painted with dark 'colored' lacquer.

The Taoist carefully took out something wrapped in linen cloth from the box. When the Taoist priest opened the sackcloth, Wang Ze only felt that his brain was 'blind', and in the Taoist priest's hand, it was a globe!

Wang Ze hurriedly ran over, and after a closer look, he found that it was very different from the map on the globe of later generations.

This globe has the borders of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, as well as the Northeast region, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau; Even Indochina and the islands of the South Seas, the Indian Peninsula are on it, it's just that the coastline is not too accurate.

With a flick of the globe with his hand, Wang Ze was surprised to find that there was still the American continent on it, but it was only the west coast of the American continent.

Seeing this, Wang Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was sure that no one had crossed like him, the ancients should not be underestimated, first there was Cao Blacksmith's blast furnace ironmaking, hydraulic blower, and now this Taoist priest took out a globe.

The Taoist priest smiled when he saw Wang Ze's surprised expression and said: "Twenty years ago, Tao Hongjing, a senior of the Taoist 'Gate' known as the 'Prime Minister of the Mountains', was the best 'friend' of Tao Hongjing, and the Buddhist 'Gate' senior monk Hui Shen was forced to take his disciples to float overseas on a big boat given by his friend Zu Chong. ”

"It wasn't until eight years ago that a monk suddenly came to Health on a sea boat and claimed that he was a disciple of a senior monk of Huishen, a disciple he had accepted in a country on the other side of the ocean called Fusang."

"At that time, the monk was alarmed, and he presented the sea chart and the Qianyu map to Emperor Wu, but the ministers of the court and the central government thought that the 'heaven is round and the place is round in ancient and modern', and the theory that the sea chart and the Qianyu map say that the earth is round is extremely absurd, so they do not accept it."

The Taoist priest stroked the globe and continued: "The doctrine of our sect holds that the heavens and the earth and the universe are as stated by Zhang Heng Hun Tian in the former Han Dynasty: the sky is like an egg shell, and the earth is like a 'chicken'. Later, the patriarch of this school obtained the sea chart and the Qianyu map presented by the disciples of Huishen by chance, and combined it with the armillary sphere to make this thing. ”

"Poor Dao Chen Duan is under the 'door' of Taiqing Road in the Southern Dynasty, and the former of Poor Dao heard all kinds of strange things about Xiao Langjun in Mr. Xiao's house, so he took the liberty to visit!" Speaking of which, the Taoist priest gave a bow, and Wang Ze had seen a Taoist friend demonstrate before, so it was also a bowe.

Seeing this, the Taoist priest's eyes lit up, and he said, "Could it be that Xiaolangjun is really the reincarnation of my patriarch?" ”

Wang Ze coughed dryly and said, "Brother Dao thinks too much!" ”

"If it weren't for the reincarnation of my patriarch, how could I have listened to what Poor Dao said, but I wouldn't be surprised?" The Taoist priest clenched his hands and asked excitedly.

Before Wang Ze crossed over, he saw a book saying that a British doctor named Joseph Needham specialized in the study of ancient Chinese scientific history, etc., and that Chinese may have arrived in the Americas more than a thousand years ago.

In the late 70s of the 20th century, some American scientists re-studied China's "Classic of Mountains and Seas" and came to a surprising conclusion: the Chinese arrived in the Americas as early as 3,000 years ago, and the situation of the mountains and rivers described in the book "beyond the East China Sea" is in line with the terrain of western and central North America, and the book also makes many vivid and interesting descriptions of North American scenery.

In the 5th century A.D., Mexico was also rumored to have been introduced to Protestantism by "great men from outside". In the 54th volume of the Dongyi Biography of the Book of Liang, the official history of Mexico and China, the Fusang Kingdom recorded in its location and distance coincide.

In addition, many ancient customs, codes and calendars in Mexico and other places are similar to those of China. Among the large number of cultural relics unearthed in the Americas, there are more than 140 Chinese characters such as "Wudang Mountain" and "Tomb of the Great Qitian People" on the stone tablet and other objects.

Among the many inscriptions unearthed in Mexico, some of the statues are similar to the large stone statues of the Ming Tomb in Nanjing, China, and some of the steles have a large turtle and are carved with many hieroglyphs. According to archaeologists, these are clearly influenced by ancient Chinese culture. Of course, all this needs more direct evidence to prove. Thinking of this, Wang Ze combined with the ancient version of the globe in front of him, and finally determined that there were really Chinese who arrived on the American continent in ancient times. The teachers and commanders of this Taoist priest are all talents, and they realized that the earth is round so early.

In fact, in the Eastern Han Dynasty at the latest, there were already three ways of interpretation: the Gaitian Theory, the Hun Tian Theory and the Xuanye Theory. The Hun Tian theory is only one of them, that is, one advocated by Zhang Heng of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The Taoist priest talked a lot about it before, but Wang Ze still didn't understand what the Taoist priest was doing when he came thousands of miles away to find him.

So he waved his hand, stopped the Taoist priest's rambling, and said: "I already know the principle of the evolution of all things that Brother Dao said, and I also ask Brother Dao to make it clear, what happened this time?" ”

"Emperor Xiao Liang Wu of the Southern Dynasty first worshipped Buddha in a big way, and then Hou Jingzhi's 'chaos' led to a great loss of national strength, and now it is a mansion that is about to decline. Although Chen Baxian tried his best to turn the tide, the Southern Dynasty had lost the land of Yiliang Erzhou, and although Chen Baxian had tried his best to support it, it was still possible to survive, but the fall of the Southern Dynasty was a certainty. Moreover, the two dynasties of the north and south are all worshipping Buddha and suppressing the Tao, and in the long run, I am afraid that there will be no place for our Taoist 'door' and Huaxia. The Taoist priest looked solemn.

"Poor Dao heard that Xiao Langjun's name came here, and a few days before and after, I saw that Xiao Langjun only took less than a year to create such a foundation, once the wind and clouds rise, Xiao Langjun will definitely turn into a dragon." said another salute, "Poor Dao is willing to attach the tail to help Xiao Langjun achieve a great cause!" ”

Wang Ze thought about it for a long time and said to him: "If you want to follow me to achieve great things, then the doctrine and canons must be determined by me!" ”

"There is no objection to this matter, when Poor Dao came, several division commanders had already given Poor Dao full authority to deal with it. I heard that Xiao Langjun has established a medical school, which is a good deed, and the poor road and several teachers and brothers are all good at the art of disambiguation, and they are willing to teach each other their skills! ”

Next, Wang Ze thought about it for a few more days, and after discussing with Wang Yong, Lu Wen and others, he decided to agree to the attachment of Chen Duan's faction. Anyway, there is a shortage of doctors in medical schools, especially doctors with excellent medical skills. Wang Ze really didn't believe that he couldn't subdue this group of 'mixed' Taoist priests.

However, how to reform these sub-religious workers still needs to think carefully about it.
