Three days later, Zhang Jue's body fully recovered.

It's just that the shrimp town is not peaceful, and when the news of the dead people in the inn spread, rumors spread everywhere, and some people even said that the monster that killed people in the water was going to harm people on land again.

The rumor spreads more and more.

Today, most of the people in the town have run away.

Looking at the empty streets, Zhang Jue and the three of them all felt a little uneasy.

Fear is like a plague, and when the fear of the crowd reaches a certain level, even Zhang Jue, who is a monk, has a slight impact.

However, the three of them, including the Song Dynasty, had no intention of backing down.

To get out of the river, you first have to find a boat.

Finally found an old boatman, who knew that the boatman was reluctant to go out of the river, and he didn't do much silver, just kidding, how important is the life of silver.

"Senior Sister Hua, you see that we finally found a boat, he still doesn't carry passengers, he can't go to the river, how can he kill demons, he can't swim over, right?"

Song Dynasty has a sad face, from the morning to the present, it has been more than an hour just looking for a boat, there are a lot of empty boats, or those who don't know where to hide because of fear, but there is no boat, where will they operate the boat.

"If it really doesn't work, we'll do it ourselves. "Zhang Jue used to take boats a lot, but it was mechanically powered, where did he use manpower?

Faced with a bunch of boats, he didn't have much to do.

Hua Junyao nodded helplessly and said, "Now it seems that we can only rely on ourselves if we want to enter the river to find monsters." ”

"Hey, what's that?" exclaimed Song Chao.

I saw the shadow of a boat looming in the hazy mist on the river.

At first, it was difficult to see clearly from a distance, but after a gust of wind blew, the ship showed its full view.

I saw that the length of the ship was about ten zhang, the width was four zhang, the height of the ship was wide, the appearance was like a building, it was divided into two floors, and the upper layer was provided with a protective female wall, and the female wall was full of shadows.

Zhang Jue even saw that there were two cannons on the bow of the ship.

"This is a warship?

The Song Dynasty was pleasantly surprised, if it was to go out of the river on a warship, wouldn't it be a hundred times more stable than a small boat?

"What's good, that's the warship of the official army, you can sit on it?"

Zhang Jue lost no time in hitting him.

"I dare to say that nine times out of ten we are coming for the monsters in the river, and the three of us are disciples of the Dignified Jixue Palace, and the monks of the Eight Classics, they must be unable to ask for our help, how can they not let us get on the ship?"

Hua Junyao said: "Even if you are right, but you always have to communicate with others, and they will let you get on the boat, which is hundreds of zhang away, how can you communicate with the official family?"

Song Chao smiled and said, "We can't go over, it doesn't mean that others can't." ”

"Others, who?" Hua Junyao looked around, except for the three of them, there was no one else at all.

"Far away in the sky, close in front of you. ”

Hua Junyao shook her head and said, "I can't do it, my cultivation hasn't reached the Tianqian Realm yet." ”

It is common knowledge in the cultivation world to be able to wade on foot only when you reach the Tianqian Realm. As for Zhang Jue, she thought about it a little and felt that it was impossible, because his age was there, how could he be a few years younger than herself, how could he go to the Tianqian Realm.

So she thought that the Song Dynasty was talking about herself.

She never thought that Zhang Jue was not a monk in this world.

"I'll do it. ”

Zhang Jue knew that the Song Dynasty was not at ease, and after talking for a long time, he actually went back to himself, but he only moved his mouth.

Hua Junyao was surprised: "Ah, junior brother, are you sure?"

Not only is her cultivation superb, but her knowledge is even more extensive, she is sure that Zhang Jue does not have the cultivation of the Tianqian Realm, and she has never seen that kind of technique that can cross the river in the Dikun Realm.

Zhang Jue nodded and said with a smile: "Senior Sister Hua, you are optimistic." ”

He jumped slightly, pulled up on the spot, and landed steadily on the surface of the river after several front somersaults in succession.

The river is five kilometers wide and the current is gentle, making wading in this water much easier than wading in the Linjian Peak. I saw that Zhang Jue seemed to be strolling leisurely, stepping on his feet, and his walking speed on the river was not inferior to that of a galloping horse.

A white wave formed behind him.

On the warship, the armor soldiers were on high alert, and suddenly found a strange person wading on the river, and they were all shocked.

Seeing that the soldiers were nervously pulling out the bowstrings, the junior colonel hurriedly said, "Don't act rashly! I'll go and tell Master Bai." ”

Not long after, a burly officer and military leader in his thirties, with a beard on his face, came to the bow of the boat, he himself was a fourth-order cultivator of the Dikun Realm, and he was also surprised to see that person's wading kung fu.

He knew that the cultivation of the coming person was extremely extraordinary, so he hurriedly shouted: "Put down the bow and arrow, we must treat each other with courtesy!"

The soldiers put down their bows and arrows as they were told, and their nervous nerves were much relieved.

Zhang Jue had already stepped on the water at this time.

He saw a bearded man beckoning to him on the second deck, and he stepped on the water, jumped up more than a foot, and then jumped lightly onto the second deck with his toes on the side of the ship.

"Little brother is so handsome!"

The bearded man laughed, and spoke in a tone as if he had known Zhang Jue for a long time.

"In Xia Yu, now he is the head of Linqing Weibai, I don't know where the little brother is taught, what is the reason for this?" was very respectful in his words, for people who were much stronger than himself, Xia Yu, as a military general, was naturally very respectful.

Many of the official systems here are similar to those of the Ming Dynasty, such as the county order and the military system of the guard, but they are self-contained, and Zhang Jue can't tell the size of the official position of Bai Chang, but it seems that he guesses that he is a military attache who manages about 100 to 200 people.

In the Dajing Dynasty, such a military attache should only be a very low-level official.

Zhang Jue saw that this bearded man was not judged by his appearance, and he had a bold personality, but he had a good impression of him.

Hearing this, he said: "My name is Zhang Jue, I am a disciple of the Diji School Palace, I heard that there are monsters in the local area, and I came to help the government get rid of the demons." ”

Xia Yu was taken aback, his tone was more respectful, and he said with a smile: "It turned out to be a master of the Diji Academy, and he was disrespectful." The Diji School Palace and the Tianji School Palace were originally created by the King of Zhou in this dynasty, and they are not outsiders with our officials and soldiers. ”

Zhang Jue said: "I also have two companions who are also here to get rid of the demons, and they are waiting on the shore at this time, I wonder if General Xia can send a boat to pick them up?"

With Xia Yu's level, he is naturally not a general, but the sedan chair carries people, Xia Yu is so polite to Zhang Jue, and Zhang Jue is also willing to give him a high hat.

Xia Yu was really happy when he heard this, laughed, and said: "Brother Zhang's companion, that is naturally extremely extraordinary, it is an honor to be able to come to help." ”

At that moment, he put down a small boat and picked up Hua Junyao and Song Chao.

Zhang Jue waited for the two of them to come up, and then entered the cabin with Xia Yu.

The second floor of the cabin is used as Xia Yu's command room, and it looks very spacious inside. At this time, there were already four people sitting inside, and the four people sat in two groups.

There were two people sitting opposite each other, both dressed in coarse linen clothes, about thirty or forty years old, with a sturdy body and a fierce face.

The other two are an old man and a young man, the old man is slightly hunchbacked, his hair is gray, he stands aside with a respectful face, the young one is about seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, at this time the big horn is sitting on the chair and drinking tea, looking like a pair of master and servant.

Xia Yu warmly invited Zhang Jue and the three of them to sit down, and said apologetically: "Our place is simple, there is really nothing to entertain you, I can only ask you young heroes to take a moment, and after the demon is eliminated, Xia will definitely have a banquet again." ”

Song Chao looked at the young man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes who was sitting and drinking tea, and suddenly said, "No, how can he have tea to drink?"
