If calculated based on the place names of later generations, this place should be Kyushu Island. Although it is a foreign country, it does not seem to be much different. After all, in this era, human beings cannot completely transform the natural environment like in later generations and deeply imprint it on their own.
And all the mountains, forests, plants, and high mountains and wilderness in the world do not seem much different from the surface.
In Xu Xian's opinion, this place is no different from any small fishing village in Zhongtu, at most it is more simple and poor.
It was already night, and the pier was very quiet. In addition to them, there were several small boats moored. There was a small wine house on the pier, which emitted a dim light and vaguely noisy voices, but what was used was no longer Chinese.
The arrival of the big ship still alarmed the people on the dock. Several short and drunken people, but with weapons, came forward and talked quarrels.
But the so-called weapon is nothing more than a bamboo cut, which makes people wonder its lethality.
The soldiers were a little arrogant, but after seeing the many guards, they got up carefully. Makoto Muto stepped forward to negotiate: I tell them that you are the envoy of the Celestial Empire. They have returned to report to the local vassal lord. This place should be controlled by the Ozawa family, but it is a distance from the family. The journey is difficult and it will take some time...
Xu Xiandao: This place is really ruined.
Makoto Muto quickly explained: Because it is not the main pier, Kyoto is still very prosperous.As he said this, his eyes also showed a color of yearning.
Then take a night off here and set off for Kyoto tomorrow morning!Although Xu Xian wanted to go directly to Kyoto, considering that everyone else was still a mortal body, the boatman guard was better, and the two unrespected deputy envoys looked like they were about to die.
The village chief of the fishing village rubbed his hands to receive him, feeling uneasy. He didn't expect that the envoys of the Celestial Empire would come to such a remote place. He was surprised when he saw Xu Xian and thought to himself: The Celestial Empire is so tall!
After saluting respectfully, they ran around and arranged their residence for them. The weather was already very cold at this time and it was no longer suitable to camp outside.
However, the village is too small and the house is too simple, making people doubt its effect of preventing cold.
Xu Xian said to Muto Makoto: If you tell him not to have trouble, the others will still go back to the boat to spend the night, just helping us and two deputy envoys find a place to stay.
The village chief breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the adult was not as vicious as those arrogant warriors. He led Xu Xian and others to his home. A group of children in the village followed behind with a smile, curious face but were all dressed very thinly, which made Xu Xian feel a little sad.
At least in this era, the people of the world are indeed living in dire straits and surviving on this barren land with constant natural disasters and wars is much more difficult than in Middle-earth.
An old woman in a shabby kimono was waiting outside the door with a lantern. When she saw a few people, she came up and invited them into the house.
Xu Xian noticed that an old beggar was sitting in the corner of the wall. He didn't want to see too much, so he was invited into the house. As soon as he entered the house, Xu Xian smelled a smell of medicine and asked: Is anyone sick?
As Muto Sei-ichi's translator, the village chief immediately showed a sad look and said it. Muto Makoto said: His grandson is sick. Recently, many people in the village have fallen ill and cannot go out to sea to catch fish.
Xu Xian said: I know some medical skills and can help you take a look as a reward.
The village chief and the old woman showed a look of surprise and invited Xu Xian to the inner room. They saw a child lying with his eyes closed.
After Xu Xian took his pulse, the cause of the disease was very strange. The yin energy invaded the body, which was not like an ordinary disease, but it was also very easy to solve. After a spiritual power was passed, the child woke up immediately.
The village chief and his wife cried with joy while holding the child. After pulling the ignorant child to thank him again, the village chief urged his wife to prepare the food, but the main dish served was only simply processed fish.
Although Xu Xian didn't care much, the two deputy envoys couldn't eat. Although they were poor officials, they did not treat themselves badly in their diet.
Even Makoto Muto has become accustomed to exquisite food.
Xu Xian shook his head and ordered people to get the wine and food on the boat, but it was just air-dried or marinated beef and mutton, as well as noodles and other foods. After heating them on the stove, they were served on the table.
The child looked straight at the food on the table, and even the village chief swallowed. Not to mention them, even those warriors couldn't eat such wine.
Xu Xian smiled and invited them to have a meal together and put a piece of mutton into the child's hands: If you recover from the illness, you should eat more.
Although the child could not understand his words, he couldn't help but tempt the meat and started eating. The village chief scolded the child a few words, refused again, and sat down to the side of the table with embarrassment.
However, what made Xu Xian interesting was that the village chief and Muto Makoto both sat cross-legged, but the two deputy envoys knelt downright. Even after experiencing the hardship of crossing the sea, they would not want to lose etiquette in front of the barbarians.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, the village chief immediately lost his restraint and started talking too much, which made Muto Makoto almost have no time to eat.
Xu Xian picked up some food and stood up.
Seeing him get up, the others also quickly got up, and Makoto Muto said: Sir, are you?
Xu Xian said: I just saw an old beggar outside the door, so I brought him some food.
Makoto Muto said: Beggar, what kind of beggar?I didn't see it just now.The two deputy envoys were also inexplicable.
After listening to Muto Makoto's translation, the village chief also said: There is no beggar Ah in our village!
Xu Xian was slightly stunned, obviously in such a conspicuous place.But if you think carefully, such a poor village obviously has no room for beggars to survive.
But the child pulled the village chief's sleeve and said: Yes, I have seen it too.
The village chief suddenly seemed to remember something and shouted: That was not a beggar, but a monster.
The village chief explained: It was a monster called Baibaiye. It was originally a monster transformed by a lonely old man after his death, so he looked like a beggar. He usually lived in the mountains and slipped into the village when it was dark. People who met it would definitely get sick. I said why so many people in the village were sick recently? It turned out that it was because of this.I originally heard that only Guan Dong had such a monster, but I didn’t expect to come here. It’s awful. What should I do if the adults fall ill here??
Xu Xiandao: So that's it, don't worry, I won't fall ill.I just looked around and didn't pay much attention to the beggar being a monster, but can it be called a monster?
To be more precise, it should be a ghost, but it feels very different from the ordinary dead souls.
But I finally felt a little bit of exotic charm, and I subdued the monster that night.
When it was late at night, Xu Xian walked out the door alone. The Baibai Master was gone. He opened his eyes wide and his eyes extended infinitely without being bound by any obstacles.
But the result made him look surprised, because there was not only one monster here, but many little monsters like coal balls hidden in the stove, strange shadows floating in the river water under the bridge, and in the distant mountains and forests, there were more strange things, all of which were unheard of in the Middle Land.
Xu Xian said incredibly: What's going on here?But there is such a big difference in species across the sea?
No official, these are not monsters.A gentle voice came from Xu Xian's shadow.
Xu Xian sighed: Madam, you have finally woken up!Just said that I was tired, so I ran into the shadow without authorization and never came out no matter how I shouted.
Bai Suzhen showed up and smiled at the corner of her lips: It’s already night, and the night is long, how can the officials be alone in the empty room?
Xu Xian's heart was fluctuating for a moment, and she was dressed in white under the moon like snow. Although her black eyes and calm expression were unusually gentle like water, it was a different mystery and temptation. He couldn't help but stop her waist: It was too boring for the two to go on a honeymoon trip alone.You said these are not monsters?What is that?
Originally, in his concept, the monster should have been cultivated by non-human creatures like her. It is physical and visible to people, and every monster has a village chief.
However, these monsters in Japan cannot see their true form, and their shapes are between reality and reality, which are obviously invisible to ordinary people. Compared with Middle Earth, it is like another system.
Bai Suzhen said: If it comes to its roots, it should be things like ghosts and demons. Although it looks a little strange, its essence will not change.
Xu Xian's heart moved. There was no underworld here to contain the dead souls. If they let them float in the world, they would either disappear or turn into monsters due to resentment and obsession. The ghosts were not bound by their physical bodies. Over time, it would be difficult to maintain human form, and some would be difficult to maintain their minds.
If many demons were added, like the Middle Earth, wandering around the world at will, combined with these dead souls, or gradually growing, so many strange and strange monsters would be born. Whether it is ghosts or demons, they are not seen by others, so these monsters are not seen by others.
This land is full of natural disasters, which is naturally a disaster for people.
But for these demons, they provide rich spiritual energy and various fear and despair. In addition, there is no natural enemy, which creates this land of happiness for monsters.
Xu Xian suddenly remembered what the village chief said later: This is pretty good. Some villages were attacked by powerful demons and everyone was killed.He didn't care too much about it, because he had never heard of any demons in Middle Earth attacking human settlements head-on, at most he would just secretly catch a few people to eat, because that was purely an act of self-destruction.
And all the mountains, forests, plants, and high mountains and wilderness in the world do not seem much different from the surface.
In Xu Xian's opinion, this place is no different from any small fishing village in Zhongtu, at most it is more simple and poor.
