The Japanese country in the mouth of the bearded guest was the name for Japan before the Tang Dynasty.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, more than 100 small states were established on the island of Japan, one of which sent envoys to the Han Dynasty. Because the envoy was short, thin and small at that time, Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, canonized his country as a Japanese state, a vassal state of China. From then on, the Han people called Japan "the slave country of the Japanese" and the Japanese were "Japanese" until the Three Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty, and the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

During the Daye period of the Sui Dynasty, Prince Shotoku of Japan wrote in his letter to Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty: "The prince at the sunrise is the prince at the sunset." Shicai sent Tang Shicai to change the country's name to Japan, which means "the place where the sun rises", which has since been used as the official country name of Japan. In addition, in Chinese, "Fuso" and "Dongying" are also another name for the country name of Japan.

On the big boat, Li Xiaogong said with a gloomy expression after listening to the words of the bearded guest: "Whether it is the intention of the Japanese court, but since that group of thieves are from the Japanese kingdom, the king of the Japanese kingdom should give this king an explanation, and the twenty-eight sacrificed people should be given an explanation. A statement from the soldiers! The blood debt must be paid in blood~!"

The last six words came out of Li Xiaogong's teeth, which seemed particularly infiltrating. He had lost nearly thirty soldiers inexplicably. He couldn't help being annoyed, not to mention that the other party came from such a low-level country as Japan!

Yes, that's right, in Li Xiaogong's eyes, the current Japanese country is a low-level country, even inferior to the small Southeast Asian countries like Chenla and Pyu, so it is even more impossible for him to call the ruler of the Japanese country the emperor!

In fact, the term emperor was first coined by Prince Shotoku. He wrote in the letter of credentials that he sent Sister Ono (male) to Emperor Yang of Sui, "Emperor of the East respects Emperor of Baixi", it was because of this sentence that Emperor Yang of Sui was thoroughly angered, thus leading to the severing of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The Celestial Empire was not called in vain in ancient times. At that time, the people of the country would not recognize the so-called emperor. China called the emperor of Japan as the emperor in the Tongzhi period in the late Qing Dynasty.

"Is your lord planning to go to Japan~?"

The bearded guest's eyes lit up, and he asked with deep meaning.

Li Xiaogong replied in a deep voice: "The king of the Japanese country has no way to teach and reform, causing my Tang fleet to be damaged. Of course, we should be held accountable, but the most urgent task at the moment is to find the bandits and kill them with thousands of swords, so as to comfort the fallen soldiers. The Spirit of Heaven~! Zhongjian, do you know where that gang of thieves is located~? Can you take this king over there~?"

The bearded man shook his head and replied, "If XX knew about it, he would have led someone to destroy them long ago. Those wretched Japanese people would have been unaccustomed to seeing XX long ago~!"

Li Xiaogong sighed helplessly, he waved his hand and said, "Wu Di!"

"The end is here!"

"I order you to lead twenty warships and four hundred sergeants to track down the whereabouts of the bandits along the way. Before dawn, whether you find them or not, you have to come back and gather!"

Li Xiaogong commanded with a serious look on his face.

"Follow your orders~!"

Wu Di answered loudly.

The bearded guest suddenly said: "My lord, please forgive me for saying a lot. It is easy to lose your way when sailing at night. The person brought by this little brother may not be able to come back tomorrow morning~!"

Li Xiaogong waved his hand and asked Wu Di to go down first to make arrangements, and then smiled confidently at the bearded guest: "Zhongjian don't have to worry, every boat is equipped with a compass and chart, so you won't lose your way~!"

The bearded guest was stunned for a while, and asked curiously, "I dare to ask your lord, what is a compass~? Can I borrow a certain view~?"

Li Xiaogong smiled, gave a low voice to the guard next to him, and then said: "Why not~! It's not convenient to talk here, why don't we go to the camp on the island and then talk about it~?"

The bearded guest burst out laughing, and then came a sentence of Wenxuanxuan, saying: "It's just what you want, I don't dare to ask your ears!"

Then, he waved at the boat next to him, and said, "Go to the island in front of you to be stationed! Let me be honest, don't make trouble, do you hear~?"

He still looked like a modest gentleman in front of him, but he regained his pirate nature in a blink of an eye, which made Li Xiaogong a little dumbfounded.

……………………

"This...this is the compass~?"

In the cave, the bearded guest pointed at the small round box that was less than one-third of his palm, and said with his eyes wide open.

Li Xiaogong glanced at the envoys from various countries who were looking at the compass in his hand eagerly, and then in the shocked eyes of everyone, he handed the compass to the bearded guest, and said with a smile:

"That's right! This is the compass! No matter where you are, the red end of this needle will always point north, and the white end will always point south! With it, you won't be afraid of getting lost~!"

The bearded man held the compass in his palm like a treasure. He couldn't believe that such a small thing could have such a magical function. What was quite funny was that he even took the compass and turned it around twice... …

A seven-foot-bearded man, like a child, is spinning in circles on the spot, this picture is not too beautiful...

"Hey~! It's amazing~! It's unbelievable~! My lord, where did you buy this compass? It's a nautical artifact~!"

After a while, the bearded guest looked at Li Xiaogong and said excitedly, as for the compass in his hand, he was really reluctant to return it!

No one knows the importance of the compass better than he, the pirate king who has been wandering at sea for many years. If the person in front of him is not Li Xiaogong, he would have even thought of killing people and making money. He has never been a "gentleman of the right way". brotherly love

righteous.

Li Xiaogong said with some humor: "This is the product of Chang'an Qiqu Pavilion. The crew member you rescued earlier, Zhongjian, happens to be the person who the treasurer of this Qiqu Pavilion has taken extra care of!"

"Qiqu Pavilion..."

The bearded guest secretly memorized these three words in his heart, and then asked curiously, "Who is this shopkeeper of the Trolley Pavilion? How could he be able to speak in front of the prince~?"

It is nothing more than his strangeness. Apart from Li Shimin and Li Yuan, Li Xiaogong is definitely the most prestigious person in the Tang Dynasty and is respected by many people.

Li Xiaogong said: "The shopkeeper of the Tricky Pavilion is named Li Zexuan. He does have an identity. I think you will be interested in Zhongjian. He is a closed disciple of Lingxu Zhenren~! This compass was invented by him alone!"

"Master Lingxu~?"

This time, the bearded guest was even more surprised than before. He murmured, "Hey~! It seems that someone saved someone right now! It's actually related to the disciple of Daoist Lingxu!"

At this moment, Li Xiaogong took out a roll of paper from his sleeve and said with a smile, "This time the imperial army escorted the merchant ships to trade south, Li Zexuan not only provided a compass, but also gave this king a detailed sea chart. The army can return so quickly!"

The bearded guest's eyes lit up and said, "Can I borrow a certain view?"

"certainly!"

The bearded guest took it and slowly opened the map. What he did not expect was that this opening would open up a new world for him!
