Chapter 246: Yamato
Riding the wind and waves, everything was smooth sailing. More than a month later, the ships of the Ximen family had entered the Yamato waters.
To put it bluntly, this Yamato Kingdom is just a small place. To put it bluntly, it is an island country. The economy is relatively backward, and its national strength is even more declining than the Tianhua Dynasty. However, since it is a sea country, it naturally has unique production and bargaining chips for trade.
The voyage is about to come to an end and you can go down to land, and everyone is quite excited.
When the Ye brothers and sisters came to the deck, they suddenly saw a group of people taking out pens and ink, and they helped each other to draw face to face and I would help you draw.
After a while, a person became like a big face, very ugly.
Ye Junmei was very surprised and hurriedly asked someone to ask.
The man replied in a muffled voice: "It's what it takes to Yamato."
The explanation is a bit general. Even though Ye Junmei is smart, he doesn't know why. Fortunately, the second young master Ximen came out soon, and his originally handsome face was also outlined by the ink, like a ghost. If he hadn't heard the sound, he would almost never recognize it.
"Junsheng, you must be very strange."
Ye Junsheng nodded, he was indeed very strange.
The second young master Ximen smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, we have no choice but to do so. The national conditions of this Yamato country are very strange."
"What a strange method?"
"Ugly, beauty."
At this moment, the second young master Ximen didn't keep it a secret and told the story.
It turns out that Yamato has unique customs. It does not emphasize articles, but focuses on appearance. The better appearance, the higher the status. As for this standard for evaluation of appearance, it is very different from the Tianhua Dynasty and is almost the opposite. In a nutshell: If a person born with a crooked and jujube comes to Yamato, he will definitely be very popular and amazed the gods...
After listening, Ye Junsheng and Ye Junmei looked at each other and couldn't speak. Sure enough, there are all kinds of wonders in the world.
The second young master Ximen smiled and said, "How about it, why don't I have someone to help you two draw?"
Ye Junmei stuck out her tongue: "I won't draw."
Ye Junsheng asked: "If you keep the original appearance, nothing will happen, right?"
The second young master Ximen smiled and said, "Then nothing is wrong... Now, if it were the case, if Yamato first met us, he would definitely be frightened and fled. He would not expect to talk to others about business or do business."
He suffered a loss when he first came here. The first time he saw him, he thought he was a man-eating monster, so he was so scared that he left on the spot.
Ye Junsheng laughed silently when he heard this, but when he thought about it, he felt relieved: In the ancient times of the previous life, the Chinese people had never seen black and white people. When they suddenly saw the other party with blond hair and blue eyes, they would think they would hit a ghost and be very scared.
About two hours later, the Ximen family's ship finally docked and parked at a very lively pier. After handling some matters, they started unloading the goods.
Ye Junsheng was not very interested in these processes. He directly talked to Mr. Ximen, then took his sister off the boat and wanted to stroll around.
As expected, the Yamato people I saw were all as short as winter melon, with hideous and abominable faces. Among them, they were all "best" with black charcoal, round and small ears, nostrils facing the sky, and nose hairs were like brushes.
On this side, they saw each other looking scary, but on the other side, others were rumbling when they saw them, their eyes were horrified, as if they had seen a ghost, and they couldn't accept it.
Yamato has its own language and does not communicate with each other.
"His grandmother is a bear, but she dares to scold the master. The master lets me go out and let these barbarians taste our power!"
The Pig Demon's indignant voice appeared in his mind.
Ye Jun's heart moved and suddenly remembered that although this guy was lazy in his practice, he was a language genius who was proficient in many languages, including Yamato, Mengyuan, etc. Taking it with him would mean bringing an interpreter.
"Hurry up, please pay attention to the surroundings and see if there are any abnormalities!"
"Get orders!"
The Xuanhuang Stubborn Stone Seal of Heaven and Earth has been cracked for more than fifty restrictions, and many mysteries have been discovered and can be used freely. Now, the formation is activated and opened. Although the pig demon body is inside, it can use soul thoughts to monitor the surrounding situation.
After leaving the pier, you will walk a few miles away. There is a city in front of you called "Ryukyu".
This city is far inferior to Yangzhou and other places in Tianhua, and even if it is less than Jizhou, it is not as good as that in the streets inside. However, the streets inside are also crowded with people.
Among them, I occasionally saw Tianhua people and Mongyuan people with concave noses and eyes. However, they basically pretended to be disguised and used ink to draw a dot on their faces, like ghosts painting talismans, like yakshas.
In contrast, the Ye brothers and sisters who are not good-looking are very eye-catching.
When Ye Junmei saw that there were many new things on the stalls on both sides of the street, they were all unheard of and unseen, so she wanted to go and see them. When the stall owners with strange appearances saw her, they immediately waved their hands and told her not to get close.
In this way, Ye Junmei was very depressed.
After walking for more than an hour, I met an official on a patrol. I sat on an open-top carriage with a big belly, a face like a pig's head, a fat head and a big ear, and my cheeks were so grand that they almost fell off.
This way, it is even worse than a pig demon. But he is an official, and this is an official. I don’t know how many people are eager to give birth to such a person.
Ye Junsheng was very proud of it. If it was a little strange at the beginning, he was very calm now.
Seeing a teahouse on the left, he took his sister up and found an empty seat to sit. The waiter who greeted him was crooked and tits, and when he saw them, he was reluctant to come up to greet them. When the other guests saw them, they whispered.
Fortunately, Yamato and Tianhua trade frequently at this stage, and they have different relationships, and they have a clear understanding of each other's appearance. If they are completely unfamiliar and suddenly meet, they don't know how many things will happen.
After a while, the waiter came up to greet him reluctantly.
Ye Junsheng copied the words, learned and used it now, and ordered some food in a very bad Yamato through the pig demon's on-site guidance.
How can ordinary people understand this kind of mystery?
When Ye Junmei saw that his brother could speak Yamato, he never thought it was the pig demon's credit. He thought that his brother learned it from books, and was very impressed: Brother is really right, there are everything in the book.
Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles.
Yamato’s diet is quite different from Tianhua. Fortunately, the taste difference is not too big, so filling the stomach is not a problem.
At this time, Ye Junmei suddenly said, "Brother, have you ever noticed that you have never seen a woman along the way?"
When Ye Junsheng heard this, he said, "Yes, they are all men."
The pig demon stayed in the world of Qiankun, his butt was itchy, and he wanted to show up immediately, giggling, "The master doesn't know that this Yamato woman usually hides at home and cannot show up. Tsk tsk, I heard that Yamato women are all as beautiful as flowers and have a gentle temperament. If you have the chance, you really want to get to know her."
