    It turned out that the older man had a very vicious vision. Until the end of the banquet, the native girls who had hooked up with the young soldiers went into the woods in pairs, but no native girl came to see Li.  Shocked, this shocked him greatly. Whether he was interested or not was one thing, but a group of women didn't even look at him. Instead, they fought fiercely with other soldiers. It is estimated that any man would feel depressed.  // //

    Seeing Li Min's appearance, the elder Shi Chang, who had also gained nothing, patted Li Min on the shoulder sympathetically, and then said in a very deep voice: "Brother, this is not our fault. If we are to blame, we can only blame these natives."  Women¡¯s aesthetics are different from ours. Have you noticed? These women will only choose those who are tall and strong. Our polite and gentlemanly demeanor is not popular here at all!¡±

    After hearing this, Li Min discovered that the soldiers who were taken away by those women were really strong men, and it seemed that the stronger they were, the more popular they were. For example, Xi Junmai, the chief of personal guards around him, was known for his extremely strong strength.  His figure has attracted many women to chat with him, but because of his responsibility, he is not moved at all.  But maybe it's because he's so attractive that there are still two native girls guarding him. The temptation in their eyes can be seen by any man.  In addition, there were several other guards around Li Min, all of whom were strong and powerful. This also made those Nicobar women very obsessed with them, and they also pestered them endlessly.

    Seeing this, Li Min finally felt better. It turned out that it was not because his brother was not charming enough, but because there was something wrong with the aesthetics of these native women.  But then Li Min looked at the older man next to him, and saw that this old man was skinny and had a deer head and rat eyes that were indescribably wretched.  This made Li Min understand a truth, that is, although these Nicobar women have aesthetic problems, their outlook on ugliness is still consistent with that of the Han people.

    Li Min was a good boss who was considerate of his subordinates. Seeing that Xi Junmai and several strong guards were having a hard time being pestered by those women, he also smiled and secretly ordered someone to arrange for a few more men who were not attracted by Nico like him.  The female guard from Ba took a fancy to, and then she gave Xi Jun and the others a holiday so that they could relax as much as they wanted. As a result, Xi Jun bought a few and burst into tears of gratitude. He hugged the native woman next to him with both hands and got in.  The woods disappeared.

    However, some people were too impatient and started doing things before they had gone very far. As a result, after a while, all kinds of irritating noises were heard on the beach. As a result, the soldiers who were not selected started to curse. After all, they had already  It's depressing enough, but now I have to suffer this kind of torture, which is simply killing me.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????? But soon these people couldn't stand it anymore. They bent over and ran back to the boat with red faces. If they stayed on the beach any longer, they would probably explode and die.

    Although Li Min had no interest in these native women, the moaning in his ears was like a demonic sound that penetrated his brain, which was beyond human power, so he had to escape back to the ship in the end.  However, on the way back, he accidentally bumped into a few pairs of wild mandarin ducks. As a result, he was scolded by these shrewd native women, which made Li Min sigh.

    After a stormy night, the fleet specially added an egg to their breakfast the next day. However, seeing that many crew members in the restaurant looked cheerful and energetic, Li Min felt that these people didn't need eggs at all, so they might as well  Throw it into the sea and listen to the sound.  This is definitely not jealousy, Li Min swears!

    The next day Li Min's fleet set sail, but on both sides of the military port on Great Nicobar Island, there were many Nicobar women standing there, silently seeing off their lover last night. And ten months later,  A group of mixed-race children appeared on the island, and hundreds of children were born together. For this reason, even military doctors stationed in the army helped deliver the babies.  After these children were born, they were all registered as Han nationality, and they also went to school with Han children in the army. They had a sense of identity from an early age, and many of them found their way through the help of the army when they grew up.  He lost his own biological father. Of course, these are all things for later.

    After several days of sailing from the Nicobar Islands, the fleet finally arrived at Ceylon. Li Min's first stop was the Lion City, the original capital of the Sinhala Kingdom. However, because the name of this city is similar to Malacca,  It was too similar to the Lion City, and it was a Buddhist holy land, so Li Min changed the name of the Lion City to Buddhist City.

    Buddha City was not originally close to the sea, but later because of its special status, the nearest port was only thirty miles away. Therefore, after Li Min occupied Ceylon Island, he ordered local officials to visit the Buddha City  A railway has been built between the port and the port. It has just been completed. With the railway connection, the economy of Focheng has developed rapidly, and it has become several times more prosperous than before. In addition, a new city has also been formed at the port, which is called the New City.  Buddha city.

    Li Min landed in the New Buddha City, and under Liu Rengui's arrangement, the group got on the train and rested in the Old Buddha City.?.  Now Ceylon Island has been classified as Ceylon State, with Liu Rengui as the governor, Xue Rengui as the army general, and Zhu Chong as the navy general. These three are all young men of the Prince of Qi's palace. They are all under forty years old and are very good at work.  I am motivated, and although I sometimes suffer from inexperience, it will not affect the overall situation.

    The Sinhala Kingdom finally surrendered after being plotted by Li Zhen and Li Yun. In order to stabilize the people's hearts, although the Sinhala King was deposed, he was not driven out of the palace. Therefore, the palace in Buddha City is now  The original king's family still lived there, but I heard that this king who was very devout to Buddha was planning to turn the palace into a temple, so after Li Min came to Buddha City, he had to live in a villa built by a Han businessman in Buddha City.  In the courtyard.

    Although this villa is newly built, the owner of the villa is originally a Buddhist, and many Sinhalese craftsmen were hired, so the villa has an exotic feel everywhere, and the decoration of the villa  Many of the murals are related to Buddhism. Living here is like living in a temple, which makes Li Min feel a little uncomfortable when eating, because he is a carnivore.

    In fact, Li Min had no prejudice against Buddhism, but because the old Li family always respected Lao Tzu as their ancestor, and the upper-class nobles of the Tang Dynasty also respected Taoism, Li Min generally had little contact with Buddhism.  However, taking this opportunity to come to Buddha City, he browsed the various sights of Buddha City with great interest.

    Speaking of which, Sinhala is indeed a Buddhist country. Most of the places worth visiting in the capital are large-scale temples, and the rest are related to Buddhism. It is precisely because the Buddhist culture here is so prosperous.  , so it attracted many Buddhists to come here specifically to worship Buddha.

    The most numerous temples in the Buddhist city are large and small. The more temples there are, the more monks will become monks. These monks can be seen almost everywhere on the streets, and ordinary residents also respect the monks when they see them.  .

    It is also worth mentioning that among the monks who can be seen everywhere in the Buddhist city, there are also some monks who traveled thousands of miles from the Tang Dynasty to come here.  They usually board the ship from Dengzhou, Shanghai and other places, and then reach Ceylon through the Strait of Malacca, and Ceylon Island is only their first stop. After they stay here for a while, they will enter the Tianzhu mainland for activities.  While preaching, I was looking for the traces left by the Buddha.

    After Li Min visited various temples in the Buddhist city, he finally came to the most famous place in the entire Buddhist city, which is the Tooth Relic Temple of the Buddha. This temple is entirely made of sandalwood.  , is the highest level of architecture in the Sinhalese Kingdom. The entire temple looks extremely beautiful, embodying a sense of peace and tranquility everywhere.

    It was precisely because of this Buddha tooth that the Sinhala Kingdom was destroyed. However, it was also because of this Buddha tooth that the Sinhala Kingdom did not experience bloodshed. Therefore, many Buddhists have been promoting it. It is precisely because of this.  The existence of this Buddha tooth prevents the Sinhalese people from having to suffer wars. This is where the Buddha has great magical powers.  Although this kind of propaganda seems ridiculous to Li Min, many devout Buddhists still choose to believe it.

    The Tooth Relic Shrine is usually not open to the public. If you want to visit the Tooth Relic, you have to wait until the Tooth Relic Ceremony held every three months.  However, Li Min's arrival was unlucky, because just a dozen days ago, Buddha City had just held an event to welcome the Buddha's Tooth Relic. There were still more than two months until the next one, and it was naturally impossible for Li Min to wait in the city for such a long time.

    Precisely because of this, Li Min could only walk around outside the Tooth Relic Shrine, and then someone familiar with the place explained the situation of the Tooth Relic Shrine and the grand occasion when the Tooth Relic was received.

    With Li Min¡¯s power, if he really wanted to take a look at the Buddha¡¯s tooth, it would be a very simple thing.  There is no need for him to reveal his true identity at all. As long as Liu Rengui is suppressed as governor, no one can stop him from entering the Buddha Tooth Relic Shrine. However, this will definitely create a rift between Liu Rengui and local Buddhism, which will not be conducive to his future work.  unfolding, and he didn't want more people to know the news of his arrival, so he simply regarded himself as an ordinary tourist and just took a look outside.

    However, just as Li Min walked around a few times outside the Tooth Relic Shrine and was about to go back, he suddenly saw a middle-aged monk about fifty years old holding a Buddhist gift on the jade path directly in front of the gate of the Tooth Relic Palace.  He walked toward the gate of the jingshe, and when he was still more than ten steps away from the gate, he suddenly fell to his knees, and then began to lower his head and chant sutras.

    It is said that several feet around the Jingshe are forbidden areas, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter at all, but this monk is not subject to this restriction, and what surprises Li Min even more is that this person is actually a Han monk.

    Although there are many Han monks in the city, because of the last incident where Li Zhen and Li Yun deceived each other with the Buddha's tooth, there was a gap between the Han monks and the local monks. The Buddha's Tooth Relic is so important.Han monks are not allowed to approach important places at all, but I don¡¯t know who this middle-aged monk is, so he allows the local monks to make an exception?  (To be continued.
