In the afternoon of that day, the three of Bai Ling quickly went out of the city with several other teams of people and horses to form a team of more than 20 people.

As he left the city gates, Bai Ling pretended to look back casually, and the seven cloaked travelers from earlier were still wandering around the city gates, looking for their companions to leave the city.

It seems that none of the passers-by who come and go are willing to go on the road with these people.

Almost immediately, the gray cloak suddenly turned sharply and looked at Bai Ling.

Looking at each other, the man's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile again, and waved his hand slightly at Bai Ling, as if to say goodbye silently.

Bai Ling shivered involuntarily, only to feel the hairs on the back of her neck stand up, she immediately withdrew her gaze and walked quickly to the front of the three.

…… This group of people is really inexplicable.

After the official checked the directions of each of them, a new pass was finally issued.

This pass is also a piece of paper stamped with an official stamp, one for each person, consistent with the information on the road, and when they arrive in Zhuozhou, people will also rely on these two things to enter the city.

Among the companions, there was an old woman with a grandchild.

The old man caught the attention of the three of them almost at the same time—she could no longer read the words on the road guide clearly, and even the place where she pressed her fingerprints was found under the guidance of her grandson.

This scene really made Li Yiru feel a little worried, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, why did the old man pick this time to come out, it was better to wait in Jiangzhou Cheng for the spring of next year, at least the road would be safer at that time.

The old man smiled, which relieved Li Yiru, she just wanted to see the opposite side of An Jiang, and did not go to Zhuozhou.

"Across the river?" Mu Cheng also looked over, "Isn't that piece of land a clear field with strong walls and no longer inhabited?" ”

"There are so many villages...... You can't all retreat to the city, you have to find your own way. The old man replied with a smile, "Although our Jiang'an County is on the other side of the river, it is still the county seat under Jiangzhou...... My son and daughter-in-law are waiting for us on the other side of the river today. ”

As she spoke, the old man looked at Li Yiru again, she pinched the young man's thin arm, and said with a frown, "The doll is going to Zhuozhou?" ”

"Hmm." Li Yiru nodded.

"Then you have to be careful," the old woman squinted her eyes and whispered, "cross the river and go further north, it will be dangerous." ”

"How far is it from here to Jiang'an, does my mother-in-law know?" Mu Cheng asked.

"More than ten miles." The old man replied, "Let's go faster, we can cross the river before dark." ”

It took about two cups of tea for the team of more than 20 people to be released.

As Mu Cheng said before, not long after leaving the city, this team scattered scattered. The dozen or so people at the head seemed to be Zhuozhou people who had come to Jiangzhou to buy goods, and their cars had grain and cloth on them, and the empty places on the carts were rented at high prices to those pedestrians who could afford to pay for them.

The passers-by who accompanied him paid some extra silver, got into the car and squatted, and were pulled north by these strong men along with the goods.

The traders walked fast, as if they were afraid that others would take advantage of their fleet.

The three of Bai Ling were originally reluctant to go with these noisy and arrogant young people, and after leaving the city, they followed the old woman behind, and gradually distanced themselves from their predecessors.

Mu Cheng gave up his horse, let the old man sit on it with the child in his arms, and he led the horse in front.

Li Yiru and Bai Ling also led their horses on foot.

Along the way, they asked the old man a lot about the customs on the other side of the river, and only then did they know that this year's road closure was much later than in previous years.

According to the practice of previous years, the four northern states were supposed to start curbing the north-south traffic of the people at the end of July, but this year they were extremely relieved to delay the time until September, as if they were not worried about the arrival of gold thieves in August.

Not only that, this year's rice in Jiangzhou has also been harvested with peace of mind, and at the beginning of August, the fields were busy, and they really harvested a lot more grain than in previous years.

"As a result, the gold thief really didn't come to commit it?" Bai Ling asked.

"Yes," the old woman said with a smile, "I heard that at the beginning, the Jiangzhou Yamen was not sure, and it was General Chang Shengchang who personally wrote a letter to Lord Ram to persuade Lord Ram to take this risk." ”

Li Yiru stretched out his ears curiously, "This ...... How did General Chang Sheng know? ”

"General Chang is clever." The old woman sighed, "In the past few years, General Shen has not been able to do it, I have several sisters who married to Zhuozhou earlier, and last year my family began to think about how to come to Jiangzhou to get an errand and move the family over." ”

Several people chatted and chatted like this, and in the evening, they finally saw An Jiang.

Before they reached the river, Bai Ling and his party were shocked by the scene in front of them.

Seeing that Anjiang is north of Jiangzhou, compared with Pingjing, it is completely different.

When they were still 100 steps away from the river bank, several people felt the mist rushing towards them. The river is so wide that the plains on the other side look like a mirage, floating misty in the mist.

Only the deafening river water rushes eastward, showing an extremely majestic momentum in the setting sun.

Li Yiru saw such a surging river for the first time, and he forgot to walk for a while, just staring at the empty river under the sunset stupidly.

"We ...... Are we going to cross this river in a moment? Li Yiru turned around and asked, "Is this going to ...... How's it going? ”

"It's too late, there may be no boats here," the old woman pointed upstream, "and we'll have to go up the river." The money for crossing the river at night is higher, so there will always be boatmen who come out to do business, but we have to work hard to find it. ”

The people of Bai Ling followed the advice and led the horses upstream.

"You will stay in our village tonight," said the old woman with a smile on her horse, "thank you very much, otherwise we would have been a little late for our grandfather and grandson to come here." ”

"Okay." Mu Cheng replied, "Then it will be troublesome for my mother-in-law at that time!" ”

The night is four, only the five of them walk slowly on the river bank at dusk, the night breeze is clear and the moon is clear, occasionally there are one or two late autumn insect chirps, and then the moonlight, a few people go up the river, and finally see a few lantern sparks in the distance.

Li Yiru was the first to see the light, and when he was far away, he shouted, "Is that the lantern of the boatman?" ”

Bai Ling and Mu Cheng also looked at each other, but they couldn't tell whether it was a fishing fire or the sparkling of the river, and they walked dozens of steps before they could see the shape of the boat.

The men were all happy, and they walked faster with their horses, and sure enough, when they came nearer, they saw a simple wharf, and several boatmen were sitting in the bows of their boats, waiting for the guests of the night.

The boat was too small to carry three horses anyway, and several men sold the horses to the fishermen at the docks, and then helped each other to board the passenger ship.

Only then did he lift the curtain of the cabin, and a familiar smiling face was imprinted into the eyes of several people.

"Ahh The gray-cloaked traveler patted his head, and then stretched out his palm to the three of Bai Ling, "We are really destined." ”
