Chapter 54 Anyang Border Pass
Zhang Churen drooled when he looked at the exquisite dishes that came up, and Fuchen started eating directly, seeing Fuchen like this, Zhang Churen, who had a decent meal, was not polite, and ate cleanly for a while.
"Floating dust, we still have a lot of time, why don't we play in this Nanling City for a few days?"
Zhang Churen touched his bulging belly and said.
Fuchen: "No, I still have a long way to go, I will rest here for a day, and I will set off early the day after tomorrow......"
Although Zhang Churen was a little reluctant, he still didn't say anything, because he knew that Fuchen was actually in a hurry all the way, and no one could say what would happen on the unknown road.
Early the next morning, Zhang Churen sent the "Donglai Jing" over, and then the two went to buy some dry food after breakfast.
In the evening, Zhang Churen invited Fuchen to drink a drink, probably because Fuchen was very happy to drink in the "Tiger Village" at that time, and some of the books were touched by the ears and eyes to think that Fuchen had this hobby.
The next morning, Zhang Churen also packed his bags and set foot on the road ahead at the same time as Fuchen.
"You take this, you will inevitably encounter something when you go out, it's always good to have some ready!" At the door of the inn, Fuchen stuffed a silver ticket into Zhang Churen's hand, which was exactly one hundred taels of gold, because there was nothing else on his body, or it was broken silver, but it was not good to give away broken silver.
When Zhang Churen saw the huge silver ticket in his hand, he pushed it back into Fuchen's hand: "This is too much, I can't ask for it...... Fuchen, I haven't had time to thank you, how can I collect your money, I can't help it!
Fuchen forcibly stuffed the silver ticket back again: "Take it, you don't have to worry about me!
As he spoke, he led the horse forward, walked away without looking back, and slowly disappeared into the dense fog of the morning, leaving only Zhang Churen, a scholar who was holding the silver ticket tightly and tearful.
When leaving the inn, it was another person who continued to walk the next road, Fuchen looked at the map, and now it took almost twenty days, and he walked more than a third of the way, and he was not so anxious in his heart, and he was so anxious that he was still the problem of Dongzhou College's tuition, because he didn't know, so he was worried that he didn't have enough money.
Out of the city gate, Fuchen turned over and set off towards Anyang Mansion, and after Anyang Mansion was Donghai Mansion, which was the only mansion under the jurisdiction of Dongzhou College.
In the territory of Anyang Mansion, Fuchen walked all the way through Nanjin City, Sexian City, and Anyang City, all of which were plain, except for getting lost, and then going back, nothing happened, just because of this lost, this journey took a full month, and at this time I missed Zhang Churen.
However, when they left Anyang Mansion, they saw a dart team at the city gate, but compared to them, they rode much faster, and they slapped the horse's tail and threw off the other party half a mile.
But when Fuchen came to a fork in the road with some similar directions, he was worried again...... I waited cautiously for a long time and didn't see anyone coming, so I chose the right one, relatively speaking, this one is closer to the place to go.
After galloping for more than 30 miles, he found that the direction of the road was getting more and more deviated, so he slowed down his pace, and walked for a long time before he saw a farmer who was busy in the field, so he led his horse and hurriedly asked, "This brother, where does this road lead?"
The farmer stopped the hoe in his hand, wiped his sweat and looked in the direction pointed by Fuchen: "This is Jingtai City leading to our Anyang, where are the guests going?"
Fuchen: "I'm going to Dengzhou City, Donghai Prefecture, how should my brother go?
Farmer: "This guest, go in the wrong direction, walk back more than 30 miles, at the three-way intersection, take another road, and then walk another hundred miles to the border of Dazhou, and cross the border is the boundary of Dengzhou!
Floating Dust: "Huh?"
After listening to Fuchen, he thanked the farmer with a fist, then turned his horse's head and walked back.
This time back and forth wasted a day, back to the three-way intersection has been dark for a long time, the front and back of the village has to rest in the pavilion at this three-way intersection temporarily, want to wait for the same road people, everyone get together, so that you will not get lost.
But the weather was not as good as expected, and I didn't see anyone until morning, so I had to lead the horse and continue to move forward.
After walking less than twenty miles, I saw that the previous dart team was tidying up the carriage in front of an inn, and only then did I notice that the flag was written with the words "Long-term Dart Game", but Fuchen didn't recognize it.
Seeing this group of teams again, Fuchen felt that they were still a little the same as the road he was going to take, so he planned to get a companion, and saw a small servant loading and unloading goods next to the carriage, so he stepped forward and asked, "Where are you going, master?"
But the man turned around and walked away, not paying any attention to himself.
Just when Fuchen was at a loss, the little guy followed behind an old man and walked towards Fuchen.
The old man came to Fuchen and said with a smile: "This little brother, the old man is the head of the long-term dart game, can the old investment help you?"
Fuchen bowed his hand and saluted back: "I want to go to Donghai City, but I often take the wrong way, I just don't know if you go along the way!
The old man smiled and shook his head: "I'm sorry, the dart team doesn't have the habit of leading the way, why don't I get you a detailed map?"
Fuchen is still a little disappointed, and he has to touch it blindly, and he really misses the days when Zhang Churen was there......
When the old man saw that Fuchen didn't speak, he gave the man a hint, and the man ran away again.
Fuchen: "Old man, I still need your guidance on this map......
Old man: "Good to say!"
After a while, the little guy came to the old man with a yellow paper map, and the old man spread the map on the goods, and Fuchen couldn't help but sigh, this map was much more detailed than the one that the old beggar gave him, and the old man pointed out his location and the location of Donghai City on the map, and then followed the route between the two points with his fingers.
Pointing to the route above, he said: "Little brother, look, we are now in the middle of Anyang City and Donghai Mansion, follow this road, go straight for a hundred miles, and then you can see this border pass, and then you have to take a ferry to cross the river, crossing the river is the realm of Donghai Mansion, and then go all the way south, passing through Dengzhou City, Tianya City is Donghai City, and it will take more than a month to walk, if you ride a horse in less than 20 days, you can reach it, but when the little brother is on the road, you still have to ask other people to see if you can find a caravan to accompany you, this is the best, our dart team is not with people......"
After a while, the old man handed the map to Fuchen, who took the map in his hand and bowed his hand to the old man again: "Thank you, old man!"
After saying goodbye to the old man, Fuchen rode away on horseback.
After watching Fuchen leave, a girl who was about the same size as Fuchen and didn't look very beautiful, but some chivalrous walked up to the old man: "Grandpa Chen, is it possible that he is a robber......
The old man looked at the back of the floating dust and thought for a while and said: "Look at him, he should have been on the road for a long time, and he shouldn't be a robber!"
The girl then asked, "Why did you give him a map?"
The old man smiled and said, "Look at his appearance, the head of the dart said let me find a marriage for Miss!
The girl blushed and did not speak again, but turned her head and left.
And Fuchen listened to the old man's words, followed the official road, and kept going, there was no hesitation, it was so fast to hurry, and only at night did he arrive at the border pass "Anyang Border Pass" that the old man said.
After so many years of development, Anyang border pass has formed a small scale of town, the town is built with a tall wall near the water, and there are stone mountains on both sides, which happens to achieve the natural danger here, and has also become a beautiful scenery in Anyang Province.
Fuchen found an inn where he could see the river view, and now he sat alone in front of the window thinking about how to be in this Anyang territory and the Great Zhou Dynasty tomorrow, and went to Dongzhou College in Donghai Mansion, but he was also thinking that he had been in a hurry today and forgot to practice boxing and knife practice.
After dinner, Fuchen saw the stone mountains around the town, and he definitely couldn't practice boxing in the guest room on the second floor, so he planned to climb up and have a look. I don't know when I returned to this Great Zhou, it's time to appreciate the Great Zhou Dynasty that has raised me for more than ten years.
Thinking of this, he got up and went out with a knife, took advantage of the night, climbed the mountain alone, at the edge of the mountaintop, looked at the surging river, unconsciously took two steps back, and then looked at the dense forests on the opposite bank and the lights of the busy traffic in the city here.
Looking further away, it is also a piece of black oppression, only there is a glimmer of love between the border between heaven and earth, and Fuchen understands that this is the place he wants to go, where Dongzhou College is located, and this is the place to go in Dongzhou.
After practicing boxing and knife techniques three times on the top of the mountain, the night is already very quiet, and I plan to go down the mountain, ready to cross the level and cross the river tomorrow!
Early the next morning, after a brief breakfast, he bought some dry food from the boss, and then led his horse to the city gate.
Came to the gate of the city, looking at the city wall, it is much higher than the city wall of Dongning City, but it is still a little more than the broken north pass, the vermilion gate is inlaid with dense door nails, and the two beast heads on it have two knockers in their mouths.
There were rows of gun-wielding soldiers standing on the city walls, estimated to be about a hundred, and at the gates of the city were twelve soldiers with knives and guns checking on passers-by.
