Gu Zhirong kept looking at the direction where the young master was walking, until his figure completely disappeared into the dark night, and then he turned around and waved to another place.

With her movements, a woman dressed as a boat lady came over, handed a note to Gu Zhirong's hand, and said in a low voice: "Sister Fang Cai sent someone to pass the news. ”

Gu Zhirong nodded and said softly, "I'm tired." ”

The boat lady didn't say much, looked around, her figure flashed, and soon disappeared into the night.

Gu Zhirong returned to the carriage and spread out the note by candlelight.

Sister Hong said that she had released the news that General Chen had dispatched 8,000 sergeants, disguised as bandits, and set up an ambush at the Jiangzhou wharf, intending to kill everyone and rob the property while Jiangnan Caoyun was handing over the goods, so as to avenge the murder of his wife.

Gu Zhirong sneered: "I'm still afraid that he won't come." "Put the note on the candle flame. The small note suddenly turned into a cloud of ashes, and scattered like a withered butterfly.

Then, she chuckled: "Helping the court fight the water bandits, should you also remember a big credit?"

At this time, after getting the news, Jade Cicada and Mu Jin rushed over together, and saw that their young lady was fine, so they put their hearts at ease, and saw Mingyue looking unawake, and their hearts were lifted again.

It was late at night, and the green water took turns guarding the carriage, guarding Mingyue's side to take care of it. During this time, Gu Zhirong also came over to see it a few times. The night was uneventful.

Gu Zhirong knew that in this place in Jiangzhou, he could keep it safe and sound, but he was afraid that he would still have more Baojian Hall to intervene, if not. It's just that Mingyue was seriously injured, and her heart was upset, so she didn't care about thanking these trivial things.

The next day it was slightly bright. The young master came, followed by a few locals. He introduced to Gu Zhirong: "Miss Gu Wu, these are famous local guides, and they are good at crossing the desert. ”

Those people understood that the little girl in front of them was the employer, and they hurriedly saluted Gu Zhirong.

Gu Zhirong looked at the three people carefully, they were about forty years old, and the wrinkles on their faces were very deep. The face is full of wind and frost, and the camel they pulled over is very strong. The hair is very smooth, and it must be taken care of often on weekdays.

Since he led the way, Gu Zhirong routinely asked some superficial questions about the direction of the desert, and these people answered them fluently. And everyone says it differently. Presumably it is the experience summed up by many years of traveling to the desert.

In the end, Gu Zhirong nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly asked another question: "Are there many sand antelopes in the desert?"

The three of them were slightly stunned for a moment, and then Qi Qi thought that Gu Zhirong, a girl from the capital, had never seen the sand antelope, so he asked curiously, so he replied with a smile: "There are a lot of sand antelopes in the desert, and sometimes they bump into the front of them. It doesn't run fast either, and it's easy for someone familiar to catch. Because crossing the desert takes a day at the time. Some people don't have much dry food with them, or they have a sandstorm. Food and water are blown away by strong winds, and if you can catch a sandantle, you can use it as dry food. ”

"As dry food?" Gu Zhirong remembered that the east and west of his uncle's house were stacked with sand antelope horns, so he smiled and joked, "I heard that the sand antelope horns are very beautiful, and when I enter the desert, I will also catch one to play." ”

The commission that these three got was very generous, and they were grateful, seeing that Gu Zhirong was so childlike, they couldn't help but smile and said: "Miss Gu, this is easy to do, go back to the ice and enter the desert, let's catch one for you to play." ”

Gu Zhirong smiled: "I'm joking, you don't have to take it seriously." In fact, we are here to save people, and we have to hurry up, so where can we catch sand antelopes? When my sister is cured, I will bother you to catch a few to play with next time. ”

The three guides nodded in agreement.

The young master said: "Miss Gu Wu, these people are all good at traveling to and from the desert, and they also have a set of things to look at the sky, and they can predict when the desert will storm, and with them leading the way, the journey must be much faster." ”

The three of them were really loyal and honest people, and immediately said, "The three of us are ready to go at any time." ”

Gu Zhirong nodded, and suddenly asked, "Then how will my patient be placed?"

After all, Mingyue can't tolerate a little slip up, and she can't stand too much bumps.

Before the three of them came, someone told them about Miss Gu Wu's request, and when they asked Gu Zhirong about it, they were not panicked at all, but confidently said the method they had thought of again.

After Gu Zhirong heard this, he nodded, expressing satisfaction.

Early this morning, she sent Lu Shui Mu Jin and the others out to buy spare dry food and came back, and each of them packed a bag of water, which was enough for a day. After checking what he needed, he rode the camel that the three men had brought, and set out for the desert with the bright moon that had been settled.

The desert scenery is indeed different from the plains, and the tender yellow desert along the way is endless, and the sand dunes are scattered, and the scenery is spectacular, giving people a sense of novelty, uniqueness and excellence. Moreover, along the way, you can even see the occasional skeleton of a sand antelope lying on the side of the road, some of which have long horns.

Gu Zhirong's heart moved, remembering that there were sand antelope horns everywhere in his uncle's house. My uncle is a famous Confucian of a generation, and he can't cross the desert all the year round like those caravans that go to Yuedi, so where did so many sand antelope horns in his house come from? Moreover, those sand antelope horns are not all peculiar in shape, they have value to be appreciated, and some of them are very ordinary, as if they were picked up casually, and they think they are quite good-looking, so they are placed in the house at will. She pondered for a moment, and suddenly a very strange thought came to her.

It took a day to cross the desert, with a few breaks and some dry food. Protected by Shennong flowers, Mingyue's state is quite good, very quiet. Mu Jin dripped some water into her chapped lips. Gu Zhirong followed the steps of several acupuncture points to avoid the accumulation of blood clots in the skull. When she pricked the needle, the young master watched from the side, his eyes were a little wandering, his eyes were dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The three guides were really masters, Gu Zhirong and the others followed the two of them, and finally came out of the desert when the sun set.

The young master sent the three of them back, and gave them some silver, and the three of them graciously dragged the camel back as they were. Then he ordered his subordinates to look for the boat.

The name of Baojiantang was really well-known everywhere, and after a while, his subordinates reported that they had found the ship.

It is a large ship, anchored steadily on the river. The river is green and deep,

But it was as calm as a mirror. Gu Zhirong nodded, with such a calm river, there should not be any wind and waves, which is good for Mingyue.

In order to take care of Mingyue, Gu Zhirong instructed the boatmen not to drive the boat too fast, and it took one night to arrive in Yuedi.

After getting off the boat and changing carriages, Gu Zhirong really saw that the Yue Di in his mind was not as prosperous as the capital, but people came and went, and he was harmonious. The carriage glides through the bazaar, where there are a few vendors arguing, but in fact this kind of thing happens everywhere, showing the stability and prosperity of life.

But for some reason, in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the market, looking at the bustling crowd, a chill suddenly rose in her heart, as if she saw the scene of gunsmoke and people displaced.

She thought, maybe there are too many things in the past few days, and she thinks too much. However, she always felt that there was an invisible hand in the shadows, pushing her forward in an unknown direction. She tried her best to dodge, but she couldn't.

Anyway, such a beautiful view, she will never allow anyone to spoil it. (To be continued......)
