The short episode did not affect the normal driving of the convoy, and Ji Yao did not remind anyone, just as soon as he entered and exited, there were several more corpses of nameless people in this barren mountain range.

For the next few days, the convoy continued to run at this high speed, stopping occasionally just to restock water and food, and then began to run again. This continued until the evening of the sixth day of the trip, when the towering Eastern Boundary Mountain, which towered like a city wall, was already in sight, and the narrow dirt road under your feet would occasionally merge with a fork in the forest to form a wider road, and with it more and more pedestrians. There are huge joint caravans, and there are also groups of traveling merchants, of course, everywhere in the Shenzhou Continent, there are all kinds of warriors and monks with guns and sticks, and even some armed people and horses can be seen wearing standard armor through it.

After weeks and months of fearful walking through the perilous and uninhabited vast forests of the neutral zone, I now see the Eastern Boundary Mountain in the distance, and the crowds that are gradually gathering around me. Normal people's reactions are to unconsciously relax, and even the speed of walking begins to slow down.

However, God bless their convoy stood out from the crowd, and instead of slowing down, it became more and more crazy and entered a state of sprint.

The sound of the huge horse caravan galloping was not deafening, but it was enough to clear the way, so God blessed their convoy like a warship speeding on the water, breaking through the waves of pedestrians, and speeding past the panicked passers-by, leaving behind them only the sound of screaming and scolding.

In this regard, Tianyou has long been accustomed to it. This is how they have been all these days, and the commander of the guard who had taken the lead yesterday even showed off his riding skills, charging alone, and the whole person hung diagonally on the side of the horse, and grabbed a young child playing in the middle of the road in front of the convoy and threw it into his mother's arms. If it weren't for his quick reaction, he would have waited for the convoy to pass......

However, even so, Ji Yao still had no intention of slowing down. Tianyou had even heard the Captain of the Guards ask if he wanted to slow down, but the convoy was still spitting, even faster than before. Ji Yao just planned to kill someone rather than slow down, and the reason for doing this was ...... Tianyou already has some understanding.

For the first two days, the reason for the blessing of God has been unknown. He was just a little late for the descent, and Ji Yao almost couldn't control his emotions. Even if he is not his own mother, this little mistake should not be provoked, and a person like Ji Yao, who has achieved cultivation, is furious. After waiting for Tianyou to get on the car, the speed of the team was also puzzled. It wasn't until that night that Ji Yao personally killed a few unknown people who were quietly following the convoy that Tianyou finally guessed the reason why Ji Yao did this. Then there was the large-scale reconnaissance of the mocking wind, and with the help of Pandora on the periphery, the reason was finally completely figured out.

Ji Yao is not a psychopath, she let the convoy change speed quickly and slowly, and there is only one reason - she is trying to find a way to get rid of the pursuers.

It's not that someone threatened Ji Yao's safety. Her strength, without those famous bigwigs personally shooting, even if there are 350,000 miscellaneous soldiers, she will not want to hurt a hair. Even if the heads and elders of those second-tier sects faced her, the victory or defeat was only four or six, and Ji Yao was still the one with a better chance of winning. So, she wasn't afraid of being attacked, but she was worried that some news in the convoy would leak out. And this "news" that Ji Yao is worried about, Tianyou thinks about it, and the only possible thing is himself.

For this conjecture, Tianyou was even a little moved. Of course, the perception of Ji Yao will not change so quickly, this is just that Ji Yao, who is blessed by God, at least has a little bit of motherhood.

Zhenyuan had helped Tianyou analyze it before he went to the Immortal, once his identity as a prince was revealed, the Night God Temple would inevitably make up for his reputation. Such a simple truth Ji Yao is naturally very clear, so she hopes to protect this secret and prevent others from discovering this matter. At least let others know a little later.

For this reason, Ji Yao arranged a trip to recognize relatives and leave, and didn't even give Tianyou time to say goodbye. It is precisely for this reason that Ji Yao almost couldn't control her emotions because Tianyou delayed for most of the day. As for the strange pace of the convoy after that, it was just an anti-tracking measure taken after it had already been targeted. It wasn't until that night that Ji Yao suddenly shot to extinguish all the eyeliner that the convoy began to accelerate, galloping all the way, trying to completely shake off the pursuers.

Of course, they can't completely avoid the eyes of those who care about it, because their destination is clear. Ji Yao can only travel to Chu State, and the fucking terrain of the Shenzhou Continent determines that unless Ji Yao plans to fly all the way back, there are only a few roads to choose from.

For the forces that dared to keep an eye on Ji Yao, it was too easy to block these pathpoints at the same time.

However, Ji Yao's purpose is not to be discovered. Even if someone sees Tianyou, ordinary people can't think of his identity. Ji Yao did this just to eliminate a possibility. She wants to reduce the time that Tianyou appears in the eyes of people with intentions, so as to reduce the probability of Tianyou's identity being discovered as much as possible.

It's just that although Tianyou can understand Ji Yao's thoughts, he doesn't quite agree with her choice. Judging from the current situation, she actually didn't do anything, just like a weekday trip, it was the safest way to return to Chu directly and openly with Tianyou, but now there is a feeling that there is no silver three hundred taels here.

However, now that Ji Yao has done this, Tianyou can't change anything when he wants to figure it out, so he simply won't say anything anymore. It's just that her attitude towards Ji Yao is a little better, at least this cheap mother has plans to think about him, which is worth changing her attitude towards her a little, at least it can't always be as raw as before.

The convoy rushed all the way into the narrow pass of the Eastern Boundary Mountain, and finally slowed down as it approached the village of Sandalwood.

After all, Honokoto is the only passage channel on the eastern boundary mountain, and there is almost only this one port suitable for the passage of bulk goods and people in the entire east of the neutral zone, so you can imagine how busy it is. That is, the Shenzhou continent has inconvenient transportation and underdeveloped trade. By the standards of the modern earth, even if the road to the outside of this customs clearance port is built into a two-way 20-lane highway, it is estimated that it will still be blocked into a parking lot.

However, even with such a low trade volume on the Shenzhou Continent, the valley from Sandalwood Village to Sandalwood is still full of traffic. Even at night, there are crowds, and during the day, it is almost comparable to the train station during the Spring Festival. It's the evening of the day, and it's the most crowded time of the day. Travelers who can see the East Boundary Mountain will estimate the time and try to enter the valley of Sandalwood Village before dark in the evening, so the valley is especially crowded at this point.

Although Ji Yao came with the intention of not slowing down even if she hit someone, she was helpless in the face of this situation, so she could only let the convoy move slowly with the crowd.

It was almost midnight, and the convoy finally arrived at the Sandalwood Ferry.

When the princess travels, of course, it is impossible to wait for everything to be ready when she arrives at the place like ordinary people. In fact, there is no need to rent a boat in advance or anything, Ji Yao has a special building boat here that has been on standby, and there are guards here who come over in advance to make a flag, and they will immediately dock and wait for them to board the ship.

I have to say that the style of the Wang family is extraordinary. Ji Yao's building ship leaned on the dock and looked like a flower building in the water, not below the deck, the three-story ship building alone was erected five or six zhang high, and there were masts and watchtowers on the top, and the height was afraid that it would not have to be ten zhang. Below the deck is also amazing, looking more than a foot higher than the civilian ship next to it, it actually opened the gate on the side, and after opening it, it was directly put down as a springboard on the trestle. It's a pity that the infrastructure on the shore is not matched, this door is too high above the trestle, and the elevation angle of the door panel is more than 60 degrees, not to mention the carriage, even if the empty people have to use their hands and feet to barely climb up.

knew that Ji Yao was deliberately hiding his whereabouts, so Tianyou did not rashly get out of the car to waste Ji Yao's arrangement. At this time, he was observing the situation outside through the gap in the curtain of the car. Seeing the hatch that was a lot higher than the trestle, Tianyou knew that the carriage would definitely not be able to get up, and was hesitating to go down to ask, but the carriage suddenly moved again, and it staggered onto the trestle.

As the carriage approached, two long wooden frames on the deck of the building not far away gradually erected and turned around, and under the wooden frame there was a huge wooden plank, just enough to accommodate the whole carriage.

Tianyou didn't expect that this ship not only had a side door, but also lifting equipment. The Wang family's ship is really extraordinary.

As the convoy approached, the hanging board was lowered to the level of the trestle, and the first carriage drove up.

On the deck, dozens of boatmen rotated the huge winch together, and drove the rope to lift the hanger loaded on the carriage to the same height as the side hatch, and some boatmen hooked the iron ring on the wooden board with a long stick with a hook at the front end, and pulled it towards the hull to make it flush with the cabin deck, and then two thick crossbars stretched out from a point below the hatch, just passing under the hanger, at this time the boatman above loosened the sling slightly, and the hanger fell firmly on the two crossbars.

Tianyou held the curtain and watched the series of operations on the ship, but he thought that he must meet the designer of the ship when he had the opportunity.

I have been in the Shenzhou Continent for so many years, and this is the first time that Tianyou has seen a real mechanical engineering design. Don't underestimate this simple crane and crosswood, the origin of modern machinery actually comes from this, the difference is only the accuracy and complexity of the structure, in essence they are not much different. As a traverser, it is not surprising that Tianyou understands this, but as a native of the Shenzhou continent, it is quite remarkable to be able to design such a mechanical structure equipment.

Although the equipment on the ship is driven by manpower, there is obviously no shortage of people under the King of Chu, so the efficiency is really not low when the number of people is sufficient. Soon the first carriage was integrated into the cabin, while the crane above freed up for the second plank.

Heaven, their car followed up on board, and then was hoisted into the cabin with a creaking rattle.

Even though it was night, the carriage entered the cabin, and it immediately darkened in front of Tianyou's eyes. After all, the technology of the Shenzhou Continent still can't be compared to the earth. Wooden boats are afraid of fire, and there are no torches in the cabins, and a few candles alone can't produce much light. Especially since this ship is not usually large, and the cabin is even darker. In addition, there is no pollution in the Shenzhou Continent, and the moonlight is surprisingly bright, so it is even more prominent that the cabin is dim.

However, the darkness had no effect on Tianyou's eyesight. Now that he has entered the cabin, there is no need for Tianyou to hide anymore, so he simply lifted the curtain and walked out.

The pale golden light in his eyes flashed around and he saw the scene inside the cabin.

The cabin of this building is like a huge underground parking lot, there are no watertight compartments, and the upper deck is supported by columns, and the middle can be said to be unobstructed. Tianyou found the only six staircases at a glance, after all, the moonlight was very bright, and the staircase leading to the upper deck was like bathed in holy light at the moment, and it was impossible to see each other.

Ji Yao also walked out of the carriage in front, and immediately had an attendant put on the stepped carriage bench. Tianyou and someone on their side also carried the same car stool over, but Tianyou didn't wait for him, and jumped down directly. It's not the eldest lady who has lived in the boudoir for a long time, how can you use that thing?

Hearing the sound of Tianyou landing, Ji Yao in front also turned his head and stretched out his hand towards Tianyou. Tianyou immediately trotted over, and then walked to the stairs with Ji Yao's hands.

Tianyou was still a little uncomfortable at the beginning, and he struggled slightly but didn't break away. After all, Ji Yao is not a simple princess, she is also the Biyou Fairy of Zixiao Palace, and the power of Tianyou can be called invincible in the same level, but in the face of Ji Yao's level, it is still a big difference. In addition, Tianyou was not so determined to break free, so he was easily pulled away.

Ascending the stairs, they did not appear on the deck, but directly in the building they had seen earlier.

The ship's building is particularly tall and occupies nearly two-thirds of the entire deck. It can be said that except for the bow and stern, the entire deck is a shipyard.

The cabins on this level look like the guest rooms of an inn, with rooms on both sides except for the central aisle, and there are quite a few of them.

Tianyou was pulled by Ji Yao and went directly to the second floor. It's obviously different here than on the first floor. Near the bow of the ship is a covered terrace for viewing, cooling, and small banquets. The middle section is an enclosed hall, which should function similarly to a banquet hall, but unlike the previous section, this is an enclosed indoor banquet hall.

There is a small area at the back, and the structure is similar to the downstairs, which should also be a bedroom, but the size is much larger than the downstairs from the door.

Ji Yao didn't take Tianyou to the third floor, but directly pulled him to the back rooms. Tianyou glanced at the door and confirmed that there were only 6 rooms here. Ji Yao arranged Tianyou in the room in the middle of the starboard side, and Chu Feifei lived opposite the door. Qi Xiaomei, Hu Niu and Hu Qingxuan, who came with him, were arranged in his left and right rooms respectively, and the rest of the rooms were not arranged to be occupied.

Although there was no need to continue on the road, the boatmen and the people who had escorted them all the way were not in a group, so there was no need to rest or anything. When everyone got on board, the boat left the harbor and went downstream along the river.

The people who came with them were all half dead from the crazy running along the way, and almost fell asleep when they got on the boat. But Tianyou has been meditating in the carriage, and he doesn't feel tired at all, and naturally he doesn't want to sleep. When the boat gradually quieted down, Tianyou opened the door and walked out.

The princess's ship naturally can't be the same as the civilian ship, there are guards standing on both sides of the corridor, and Tianyou was discovered as soon as he came out. He hurriedly made a silent gesture, and the guards were also amused.

Walking lightly to the guard at the top of the stairs, Tianyou whispered, "Is there a galley on the ship?" ”

"Yes, Childe. Please go back to your room and wait a while, and then go and let them bring some food. ”

Tianyou hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, just tell me where it is, I'll pick it up myself." To tell you the truth, this is the first time I have taken such a big boat, and I want to look at the scenery by the side of the boat and feel the water and night view. ”

The guard immediately said that he could lead the way, and Tianyou did not refuse again, and followed down to the cabin.

In fact, the galley is not far from where they first got off, after all, no matter how big the building ship is, it is also on the ship, and it is impossible to really be as scattered as the ground building complex.

After grabbing some edible pastries, God bless came to the deck. Declining the escort of the guards, Tianyou wandered around the deck alone.

Of course, he didn't come to experience any night scenes, and he didn't care about any big ships. No matter how big the building ship is, can it be compared with the 10,000-ton cruise ship on the modern earth? Before the crossing, his own private yacht was not much smaller than this building ship, and it was naturally impossible for Tianyou to really take a big boat ride like a dumpling that had never seen the world and then be so excited that he couldn't sleep. He's here to find out.

Tianyou, who was swaying on the deck, found a boatman who was busy working at the bow of the ship, at first this guy was quite restrained, after all, Tianyou was a guest brought by the princess, and he still lived on the second floor, and then looked at his Zixiao Palace standard suit, he knew that this was a monk. The identities and class status of the two can be said to be the difference between heaven and earth. Even if you shout that everyone is equal on the earth for I don't know how many years, there are still people who tremble when they see big people, not to mention that there is even a world of slavery in this part of the world.

However, although the boatman is cautious, Tianyou is a good chatter. As soon as he talked about his experience before entering Zixiao Palace, he immediately tightened the relationship between the two. If it weren't for the fact that there were patrolling guards on the deck, and the ground was not quite right, it was estimated that the two would be able to hook up and call each other brothers and sisters in a while.

After getting acquainted, a lot of words are easy to speak. Of course, Tianyou was not stupid enough to ask directly, but deliberately used words to get some information.

The two didn't talk for a long time, but Tianyou got a lot of information.

From the words of the boatman, Tianyou not only figured out the general national strength of the Chu State, but also focused on outlining the general information of the King of Chu. Although the shipwright's understanding of the king of Chu should be relatively one-sided, it is at least a reference.

In addition to learning about the situation of the King of Chu from the boatman, Tianyou also asked about the ship by the way. The shipwright knew a lot about this, not only introduced the various special devices on the ship, but also told the place where the ship was produced. It's a pity that the shipwright doesn't know who designed the winch lifting equipment, but now that the shipyard is located, it shouldn't be difficult to find out who designed it.

Knowing the information he wanted, Tianyou didn't stay on the deck anymore and wandered back to his room. But he had just closed the door and walked to the bed, when there was a knock on the door. The sound is very small, and if it weren't for the amazing ear power, I wouldn't have heard it at all.

Tianyou listened carefully, and found that the people outside were knocking on the door of the opposite side, accompanied by the deliberately suppressed call of the maid.

After a while, there was a creak of opening the door from the opposite side, thinking that Chu Feifei had come out. The maid deliberately lowered her voice and said something to Chu Feifei, Tianyou could hear the conversation, but because the volume was too low and the door was separated, she didn't hear what she said clearly. But after a few words, Chu Feifei went out and followed the maid up to the third floor, listening to the footsteps, Tianyou knew that it was most likely Ji Yao who had something to summon Chu Feifei. It's just that Tianyou can't figure out what can make Ji Yao's summoning of Chu Feifei in the middle of the night to pass.

But no matter what happened, Tianyou didn't plan to pay attention. Listening to the footsteps in the distance, he also lay back on the bed, and as soon as his eyes were closed, the picture in his mind immediately switched, becoming a perspective of looking down on the earth from above. This is the perspective of the mocking wind, and Tianyou is just sharing the sight of the mocking wind.

Before, Ji Yao galloped all the way to get rid of the group of observers of unknown origin, but the place of Sandalwood was too obvious, and they couldn't hide from it anyway. Tianyou knows that the other party will definitely target them again here, the difference is only whether the other party will make a move. However, regardless of whether the other party just wanted to find out the news or had other ideas, Tianyou didn't like the feeling of being passive, so he released the mocking wind in advance and let him hover in the sky to see who was staring at them.
