Chapter 40 A Long Way Ahead

"Baishuiren?" Seeing the thin-dressed woman, Li Jia was confused.

"He lives on the sea for generations and regards boats as his home. According to legend, it is the Ouyue people from a thousand years ago and they will not easily go ashore. I don't know why they saw it at this time. It's really strange!"

After hearing this, Li Jia remembered a long-standing ethnic group in ancient China - the Han people.

Like the wandering ethnic gypsys that everyone knows, there was also a wandering ethnic group in ancient China, but they have been sinicized and are called "The Kanmen".

They regard the boat as their home, and eat, drink, and marry and mourn on the boat. They stay away from the land for a long time not only allowed them to develop unique etiquette, but also became increasingly rejected.

The more common name for the sacred people during the Tang and Song dynasties was "Baishuilang", or "Baishui Narcissus" and "Baishuiren". It is recorded in "Sanshan Zhi". "Dan" means the sacred people in the south, and is a false word "玉", "阿", "阿" and other words. This reference was first seen in the Sui Dynasty and has been widely used to call the sacred people since the Southern Song Dynasty.

Many ancient chronicles believe that the Han people were descendants of Minyue people who lost their country in the Qin and Han dynasties during the Qin and Han dynasties, namely the "snake species", and the so-called descendants of Semu people that were circulated are far-fetched words.

Dan people are widely present in coastal areas of our country and have always been regarded as untouchables. The living conditions are extremely harsh and they can't even afford coffins. Moreover, there is no cemetery, and the bodies are often swept up with grass and buried quietly in remote wastelands. People cannot see the burial process.

Living on the water for a long time has left them with some connection with the mainland. Moreover, because their residence is uncertain, people who are officially recognized as deceased by the government. Because they cannot receive taxes, they have been a low-ranking family in addition to scholars, farmers, industry and commerce for thousands of years.

"Nothing is wrong, they are also human beings. They are much better than those who appear to be kind but are thieves and prostitutes behind their backs!"

Li Jia waved her hand and said calmly, then slowly approaching the girl, and then she saw some of her appearance clearly.

The girl's body is very slender, and it is no less than him, especially her long legs, which can be seen vaguely under the worn-out long skirt.

The long loose hair covered most of her face, which was not ugly. It was not as dark as Lingnan. It was just a healthy wheat color, which was very tempting.

And, there seemed to be something in her hand, but it was just hidden tightly in her sleeves, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Miss, is it okay!" Li Jia leaned slightly, wanting to explore the true face of this snoring woman.

Seeing the young Han man getting closer and closer, Jiang Xiaoyu became more and more scared. The uncles were indeed right. The Han man was too dangerous and was not as safe as the land was as safe as the water.

"So, thank you!" Jiang Xiaoyu trembled. She was very worried about these Han people. At this time, she was like a frightened deer, her eyes full of fear and even trembling in fear.

He raised his head slightly and finally realized that they had saved him, and then he smiled gratefully.

"Sorry—" a timid voice rang out.

"Since the girl is fine, then we'll leave first!"

Looking at the little girl's pure and innocent expression and uncontrollable fear reminded Li Jia of the time when she first came to this world.

He was frightened and uneasy, and stayed in his room for three days before he recovered. This fear of facing the new world was already firmly in his mind and never forgotten.

At this time, only by giving her enough sense of security is the best, and leaving is the best choice.

"Well..." Jiang Xiaoyu nodded as if it were mosquitoes, watched the young Han man leave, and deeply engraved his figure in his mind.

"It turns out that there are still good people among the Han people!" After thinking for no reason, Jiang Xiaoyu left the place alive.

After walking around, turning several corners and carefully checking, she breathed a sigh of relief and came to a remote ditch where she could directly lead to the sea.

In the ditch, a gray black-sailed boat was docking on the shore. The scattered willow trees on the shore covered most of its hull, lonely and without any movement. The pedestrians on the road were reluctant to stop for a longer time.

Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up instantly, and a smile appeared on his face. He crossed three steps in two steps. When he reached the shore, his long round legs jumped suddenly.

"Bang--" The boat board sounded, and then, a thin figure appeared in the cabin, naked, wearing only shorts, dark, like a big black fish, jumping around.

"Sister, you are back!" The little guy called out happily when he saw his sister coming back, then took the long oar and stretched the boat out.

"I bought the herbs and my serious illness will be cured. It's so good!"

"Of course, when did my sister deceive you!" Back on the water, Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly lost the restraint on the land, and she became lively. She put her waist on her waist and said proudly:

"The turtle I caught from the sea is thirty kilograms, which is very big! That's why I exchanged these medicines for it!"

My younger brother took down the herbs casually, wrapped them in fish skin, and hung them carefully on the cabin, feeling very happy.

Ada has the cold and the medicine should be cured soon!

"Sister, what's wrong with your arm? The Han people bully you, I'll teach him a lesson!"

With a moment of pride, the scratches on her arm were exposed. The younger brother got angry in an instant, puffed up his mouth and said viciously.

"It's okay, I met a bad guy today and another good guy. It's really strange for Han people!"

Squatting at the bow of the boat and looking at the trees flying back on both sides, Jiang Xiaoyu put his chin on his knees, pouted his mouth, and murmured to himself.

"Sister, the Han people are very dangerous and I will never see them again!" My younger brother persuaded with great concern.

"But there are so many fun things on the land, and I'm tired of staying on the water!" Jiang Xiaoyu said without interruption.

"Besides, there are many people on land, and they are also beautiful..."

A young man appeared in my mind inexplicably. At this time, she saw such a handsome man for the first time. He was surprisingly white, even whiter and tenderer than the clouds in the sky, with straight legs. The men on the water had curved legs.

Jiang Xiaoyu looked at the rippling river surface and became a little confused for a moment...

"Today, it's really interesting!" Li Jia shook her head, feeling that today was indeed good.

Just now, he bought a pirate ship of six hundred materials, a pure warship, rather than the so-called armed merchant ship.

After repairing for about a month, you can start sailing again and head to the sea.

Most of the pirates on the ship were disbanded, leaving only some experienced ones for inquiries.

Doing business is different from pirates. Pirates need to be led by others. Otherwise, if they don’t even know who the flag is from, they will die unjustly.

Li Langjun's journey suddenly began, an beginning that no one expected.
