Up and down, down and up. Zhang Zheng can't remember clearly, this is the first mountain he climbed today.

Because he doesn't have the energy to think anymore. His legs were as heavy as lead, and every step he took seemed to use a thousand pounds of strength.

The good mille-feuille soap boots under the soles of the feet have been worn out to the point of not being shapely. The soles of my feet were covered with blisters, and the slightest step was accompanied by a pain in my heart.

His chest was panting like a bellows, and his throat was dry as if it was about to burst into flames. Not only Zhang Zheng, but also other naval officers and soldiers are also better than Zhang Zheng.

Everyone trekked through mountains and rivers, and the already wet clothes on their bodies were soaked in sweat again.

When everyone walked to a stream, Zhang Zheng finally couldn't help but sit on the ground. Then he turned his heart sideways, as if he was angry, and said: "If you don't go, you can't go, rest for a while, Cheng Qian, come and sit for a while!" Seeing this, the veteran didn't leave in an instant, nor did he not go.

Fortunately, Chen Yu saw his embarrassment, and hurriedly ordered everyone: "Everyone rest in place for a stick of incense." ”

"Whew!" Zhang Zheng sat on a stone slab and gasped. Take off your boots and snap two thorns from a bush next to the creek.

Stick a little saliva to the wooden thorn in your mouth, and then pick up the blisters on the soles of your feet one by one. Li Chengqian also learned the same, but he couldn't stand the pain, and subconsciously exhaled in pain.

After picking out the blisters, Zhang Zheng soaked his white feet covered by his boots into the cold stream.

The icy water of the stream eased the pain in the soles of the feet a little. Zhang Zheng beckoned to the veteran who led the way and asked, "How far is it, didn't you say that it was only thirty miles away when you set off?" It's been a day! The veteran scratched his head, came to Zhang Zheng and replied: "Uncle, His Royal Highness the Prince, it should be almost there!" The subordinates remember that Linyuan should be near here, looking at the terrain, it can't be wrong. ”

"Okay, okay......" Zhang Zheng nodded, not dwelling on this matter. Thirty miles, Zhang Zheng dared to pack a ticket, and the road he walked today was definitely far more than thirty miles.

Not to mention the county seat, I didn't even see a ghost shadow. But the order to let him lead the way was given by Zhang Zheng, and Zhang Zheng could not blame him.

So Zhang Zheng put on the boots that could no longer be seen without saying a word, and instructed the veteran again: "Let's go, continue to lead the way"

"Oh, yes!" The veteran nodded in response, and then the group set off again. Before leaving, Zhang Zheng glanced back at the mountain behind him.

Maybe the veteran didn't lie, but he said thirty miles, which is a straight-line distance. The situation of a dead horse running away from Wangshan is possible in any place.

Otherwise, the distance of thirty miles, according to the footsteps of everyone, should be walked in two thirty miles in one day.

A group of people set out from the creek and walked for less than half an hour. The veteran who led the way suddenly stopped.

Li Chengqian, who was protected by the soldiers in the middle of the team, turned his head to Zhang Zheng with some confusion and asked, "What's the matter, why don't you leave?" Zhang Zheng, who was limping, rolled his eyes and said, "How do I know!" ”

"Maybe it's here!" Zhang Fusheng, who was beside the two, smiled and said. Seeing Zhang Fusheng speak, Huang Jiahao immediately responded: "Hmm! ”

"Uncle, His Royal Highness the Prince, it's here, it's here, we've arrived!" Sure enough, before Zhang Fusheng's words fell, the soldiers in front of him let out a burst of cheers.

The veteran who led the way trotted in front of the four of them, and reported with a little pride on his face: "His Royal Highness the Prince, uncle, Linyuan has arrived!" ”

"Is it finally here?" Zhang Zheng's face was overjoyed, and he almost burst into tears. Half excited, half happy.

When encountering the flood, he finally escaped death, and went over the mountains and mountains for a whole day. Now I finally see the gathering place of the same kind.

Who can understand this feeling?

"Ahhhh Everyone was excited. Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian walked past the crowd to the front, and then looked around.

It was less than five kilometers away from the crowd in a straight line. A small city is quietly embedded in the mountains.

Zhang Zheng and the others are located in the middle of the mountain, and the field of vision is extremely broad. The small city at the foot of the mountain is Linyuan County!

Zhang Zheng's mood was stirring, and a feeling of being separated from the world instantly emerged. Zhang Zheng quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then waved his big hand and said: "Go, goal, Linyuan!" "When we arrive at Linyuan, everyone's stomachs can be filled after a day of hunger.

The spirit that has been highly tense for two days will also be relieved in an instant. At this moment, the significance of this small city to Zhang Zheng and his party is tantamount to a new life!

It's just one thing that everyone miscalculated. That is, Wangshan can not only run dead horses, but also dead people!

Obviously, the county seat of Linyuan is less than five kilometers away from everyone. But when it came time to go down the mountain, it still took nearly an hour!

It's just because of the spiritual support that even Zhang Zheng didn't cry out again during the time he went down the mountain to the time he entered the city.

Everyone was gritting their teeth and struggling to support themselves. Finally, when it was completely dark, we came to the gate of this small city with only two streets.

As soon as they entered the city, they walked straight towards the tallest and most magnificent building in the city. A small town of peace, because more than a hundred strong men like beggars arrived.

In an instant, there were ripples, and there was a burst of chickens and dogs. The officials guarding the gate of the county government saw more than 100 strong men who seemed to be pulled out of the muddy water approaching the county government step by step.

Immediately panicked.

"What...... What people... Stop now! A servant pointed the water and fire stick in his hand at Zhang Zheng and shouted: "Stop coming!" It's just that Zhang Zheng can see that the sweat of the errand has flowed from the ends of his hair to the ground.

The hand holding the water and fire stick was also trembling, and it seemed that he was frightened by himself and the others. As Zhang Zheng and the others approached, the two errand officers were also retreating.

A moment later, a group of people hurriedly walked out of the county office. The leader was dressed in a green robe, and his face was full of solemnity.

He was followed by several subordinate officials of the county government, as well as a group of officials of the county government, and there were about 20 people in total.

Before the people got closer, they scolded loudly: "Who dares to attack the county government without authorization and want to rebel?" It's just that as soon as he came to the gate of the county government and looked at the more than 100 strong men standing neatly at the door, the green-robed official was stunned.

"You ......" The green-robed official is none other than He Wen, the commander of Linyuan County.

"Under Zhang Zheng, next to me is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who inspected Lingnan at the behest of His Majesty, and encountered an unexpected flood in Lingqu yesterday...... Zhang Zheng took a step forward and quickly explained his identity and intention.

There is also the reason why it is such a picture, and then handed over Li Chengqian's golden book and his own seal.

Thankfully, I carried both of these things with me and didn't lose them. Otherwise, Zhang Zheng would have to worry about how to prove the identity of himself and others to the officials of Linyuan!
