At this time, somewhere not far from this ferry, Mr. Hu, who was dressed in a black Confucian robe, stared at Shen Wuyan's direction in a daze, but he was still talking to himself, "What is he doing...... Why don't you ...... the river?"

Another middle-aged man standing on the side also looked at it hesitantly, and said softly: "I have already found out, they are all landlubbers...... Although the river is shallow, it is already a limit for them. ”

The guard with the broken arm next to Mr. Hu changed his face slightly, and he asked curiously: "Could it be because those soldiers are suddenly not afraid of water?" ”

Mr. Hu shook his head and chuckled, "They are all good on land...... So much so that they will be more afraid of water...... Afraid of what they are not good at......"

This was true, and even the middle-aged man glanced at the black-clothed scholar beside him in surprise. As one of the best figures in the Li Dynasty, he never paid attention to this scholar until he said this.

"What do you see this gentleman?"

Listening to the middle-aged man next to him ask about himself, Mr. Hu just shook his head and said helplessly: "That person has always been unreasonable...... I can't see what tricks he wants to paint. ”

"Do you think he wants to cross the river the other way?" The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and sighed, "If you don't disperse these soldiers...... Those water ghosts alone can't deal with them. ”

Mr. Hu nodded, but did not speak. Instead, he returned his gaze to those soldiers and Shen Wuyan with a smile on his face, and then a trace of disgust appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Look...... Those soldiers don't seem to be afraid of water......"

Suddenly hearing the middle-aged man's exclamation, Mr. Hu hurriedly raised his eyes, only to see that forty or fifty soldiers had all jumped into the river and rushed wildly towards the other side of the river.

Faintly, I could still hear someone shouting: "Damn, for this thousand taels of silver, I have to run over ...... old man."

Shen Wuyan, who was close behind, looked at the soldiers who were rushing by, nodded with satisfaction, and then gradually accelerated towards the other side of the river.

Li Rusong, who was following him, was greatly surprised, and secretly sighed that this Mr. Shen was really acting out of the norm, so that these landlubbers, who were usually very afraid of water, swarmed up like this, and arrived on the other side of the river in just a moment.

Thinking like this, he admired Shen Wuyan even more, and then hurriedly followed him to the other side.

Seeing that all the soldiers had crossed the river, the middle-aged man not far away couldn't help but curse secretly, but he glanced at Shen Wuyan a few more times, and said coldly: "How many people like this are there in this team?" ”

There was a lot of unwillingness in his words, and even more hatred for Shen Wuyan, and even vaguely felt that he was the most difficult person in this team, so he became more and more annoyed, but in the end he had to admit defeat.

Looking at the middle-aged man who left angrily, Mr. Hu just showed a rare smile and sighed: "Where are these people his opponents...... Fortunately, there is still a chance to ......"

The guard with the severed arm also looked very moved, even a little playful, he thought about how the regiment would fight the water ghosts at this ferry, but he never thought that it would be such a comical scene.

"The one surnamed Shen...... It's really interesting......"

Mr. Hu hesitated for a moment, couldn't help laughing, and said, "You said he was interesting, just because you didn't see his terrible place...... I'm afraid the prince has been waiting for a long time...... There is still a chance...... Let's go ......."

As soon as he crossed the crossing, under the surprised gaze of Li Ruxuan and the others, Shen Wuyan gave one thousand taels of silver to the first soldier who ran across the river, and then smiled with satisfaction, and when he turned back to find the middle-aged boatman again, there was no trace on the river, as if there had never been.

Several of the soldiers seemed to notice the situation, and everyone immediately understood that there was something wrong with the boatman, and if he had chosen to cross the river by boat, he would have died.

So everyone had palpitations for a while, and when they looked at Shen Wuyan, they were all grateful.

Shen Wuyan didn't care about this, in addition to setting up camp near here tonight, he also had to think about the next line, so when he did a few operations, it was already early.

According to the comparison of the two maps, the next marked place is called, according to Li Ruxuan, there should be more than ten days to go, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being.

As for the Huofeng Village, it has actually arrived in the territory of the Li Dynasty, and it is a mountain villa on the border of the Li Dynasty. The owner seems to have some connection with the border army of the Li Dynasty, so he can be located in this important place.

Even Li Ruxuan didn't know much about the Fire Phoenix Village, but he had traveled with Li Chengliang on the expedition once a few years ago, but he had never entered, but he had only seen a few glances from afar.

After understanding this, the group was able to rest in the same place, and as usual, they built defenses, taking turns to change shifts and patrol the night.

Fortunately, there was no incident overnight, and the mission was back on its way.

Over the next ten days, the environment of the four fields has gradually changed, and houses can be seen along the way, but they are all very dilapidated, some uninhabited, some inhabited.

Finally, on the evening of the tenth day, the mission finally saw the high city wall and the strong castle tower engraved with the word Huofengzhuang.

This city wall stretches for miles, and there is no end in sight, but it is the boundary of Huofengzhuang. There were even armoured guards in front of the tower, interrogating the passing procession before allowing them to enter.

When the envoy was interrogated, Lord Yang hurriedly stepped forward to present the Ming State Letter to the guard.

The guard didn't care at first, but as soon as he opened the national book, he was immediately surprised, and hurriedly bowed to Lord Yang, and said respectfully: "Long live the Ming Emperor, long live, long live." ”

Seeing that the guard suddenly knelt down, and even all the guards around him were so respectful, Lord Yang was very useful, he smiled happily, and said lightly: "Get up...... My Ming mission passed through Guizhuang...... If you want to spend the night, I hope to report. ”

The guard immediately got up and galloped towards the village.

After a while, I saw an old man running towards the door with the maid who was supporting him, and exclaimed, "It's an adult from the Ming Kingdom...... Hurry up, please ...... inside."

Seeing that the other party was so polite, Shen Wuyan was also a little curious, secretly thinking that it was not Steward Wu's wrong mark. However, although I thought so in my heart, I still deliberately paid attention to it.

But the old man was indeed very sincere, and he didn't see any clues. So he had to follow behind Lord Yang and slowly approached the manor.

"Old farmer...... But I don't know what to call it? ”

Hearing Shen Wuyan suddenly ask, the old man hesitated slightly, and only after a moment did he hurriedly answer: "Under the surname Jin ......"
