After stepping over the ridge and going up the Xiaoqing River, it took a day for Zhao Wu to escort Zhao Ran to the Qinghe Temple, which was the first Taoist temple that Zhao Ran saw with his own eyes. Although Qinghe Temple is only more than thirty miles away from Zhao Zhuang, Zhao Ran has never walked in this direction. The impression of Qinghe Temple is only a few Taoist priests in Tsing Yi who appeared at the old patriarch's ritual at the end of the year, as well as the rich goods that were loaded and transported out of Zhaozhuang.

Qinghe temple is not big, it is built on a stone beach by the Xiaoqing River, the bluestone wall is squarely surrounded by a courtyard of more than ten zhang square, and a few pieces of red lacquer cornices are exposed in the courtyard. The temple door was closed, except for a small door in the corner, but no one entered or exited. Along the east-west direction of the temple wall, along the south bank of the Xiaoqing River, many houses and shops are erected, which faintly has the appearance of a market.

Zhao Wu found the only big car shop here and asked for a place to stay. When he fell asleep at night, Zhao Ran slept in the middle of the Chase Shop, with a domestic servant lying on each side, and Zhao Wu moved the wooden table to the door, held up the door, and lay directly on the wooden table. Zhao Ran could only smile bitterly when he saw it, Zhao Wu stared at him tightly enough.

Spend the night outside the Qinghe Temple, then wake up the next day and continue on your way. Zhao Ran looked at Qinghe Temple as he walked, but he never saw a trace of a Taoist priest.

After crossing the Xiaoqing River Beach, I went on the official road. Although this official road is very simple, only allowing four or five people to pass side by side, the difference between a road and no road is indeed very large, and the pace of the group has accelerated a lot. After only two days, they rushed to Shiquan County.

There was a bamboo shed outside the east gate of the county seat, and when he came to the bamboo shed, Zhao Ran could clearly feel that Zhao Wu seemed to be relieved. Zhao Wu handed over a few words with a Xu official in the bamboo shed, and the Xu official filled in Zhao Ran's name and household registration on a piece of yellow paper, and asked Zhao Ran to press his handprint, and a painter on the table traced Zhao Ran's head on the yellow paper with three or two strokes.

From this moment on, Zhao Ran knew that he couldn't slip away, and if he had to slip away, even if he really violated the Da Ming Law, he would become a fugitive wanted by the government at that time.

After waiting for another day at the bamboo shed, the twelve soldiers recruited by Shiquan County this time were all gathered. The county government came with two messengers, one fat and one thin, each holding a water and fire stick, and they will lead the servants to Chuanling. The Chuanling Copper Mine is located in Songfanwei, west of Long'an Province, and it takes more than 500 miles to walk from Shiquan County to the Chuanling Copper Mine.

The deadline given by the Kawanishi Xuanwei Division to guard the eunuch's mansion was that it must arrive at the end of April, and now it is the end of March, leaving only one month for everyone. If it is placed in the inland plain, it will take ten days to arrive in these five hundred miles, but the western Sichuan is mountainous, and you can only go along the post road, and the road is very difficult to walk, so the time is still relatively tight.

The thin Xie Cha held the water and fire stick in his arms, and did not speak with a cold face on the side, while the fat Xie Cha pinched the roster and checked the service force one by one. After the name verification was completed, the fat Xie cha shouted: "Get up!" So everyone bypassed the county seat and went out towards the Song Domain.

The most feared thing for the service is military service and mine service, and the probability of death in both is very high, so everyone in the service force is in a hurry with a bitter face, and there is a lament from time to time in the ranks.

This kind of errand of escorting the force itself has no oil and water to speak of, and if it goes out of the pool, it will be held responsible. In addition, the road is hard, and the Songfanwei where the Chuanling Copper Mine is located is a border battle, so the faces of the two solutions are also not good.

Zhao Ran hid in the team, cautious along the way. What he was worried about was that the two chasers had benefited from the fourth uncle and had taken advantage of the opportunity to kill him. According to the usual practice, if you encounter a long-distance conscription, in order not to travel cuò, the counties will levy a certain amount of more force, which is the so-called "force consumption", for example, this time to the Chuanling copper mine, because the road is difficult, and it is a place of border soldiers, in fact, Shiquan County's delivery quota is only ten people, but two more people were recruited.

If Zhao Ran died halfway, it would really be dead and no one would care.

Walk along the post road to the northwest, walk for two days, and then go out of Shiquan County and enter Jiangyou County. After passing the county seat of Jiangyou, the mountain began to rise steeply, towering and towering, straight into the clouds. The river is getting narrower, but it's getting more dangerous. Post roads often run along rivers, and many sections are between steep walls. Zhao Ran looked down, and the river rushed backwards, rolling up hundreds of swirls and thousands of waves.

Zhao Ran saw that the population was gradually thinning, so he became more vigilant. "Cherish life and stay away from solutions", this is really no joke.

Danger came, and it came quite suddenly.

On this day, I was walking between a cliff, the path was no more than three people wide, with a bare rock face above and a rushing river at my feet. Zhao Ran was always vigilant, and at this time he felt that someone behind him was slowly approaching, so he held his breath and suddenly jumped forward two steps.

I heard an exclamation, and when I turned around, I saw a figure behind me stumbling and falling to the place where he had just stood. This person is also one of the forces, and Zhao Ran doesn't know or care where he comes from, but his intention to knock himself into the river has been revealed. This man could not make a plan, but he almost fell, and now he was slumped on the edge of the cliff, his hands firmly propped on the rock, and his face was pale.

Fat Xie Cha caught up from the back of the team, dragged the person up, and scolded "waste", with a smile on his face. Thin Xie Cha was in front of the team, turned around and watched coldly, snorted coldly, and urged everyone to hurry again.

After this incident, Zhao Ran completely understood, and the two solutions really had bad intentions towards him. On the one hand, he kept awake, and at the same time, he quietly picked up a quick sharp stone from the ground and held it in the palm of his hand. As a last resort, I had to go out and fight!

Out of this canyon, the sun had set, and the people rushed to a village and camped among the farmhouses.

Twelve servants squeezed into one room, and two of them found another room. Zhao Ran waited for half an hour, and then got up in the dark. All the servants were lined up horizontally, all lying on a bunk, Zhao Ran had already looked at the direction, and started to look at the third figure on the left.

Zhao Ran violently covered the man's mouth, dragged him down from the bunk by his neck, dragged him to the corner of the wall in a few steps, and turned over and rode on top of him. The man struggled desperately, and Zhao Ran whispered in his ear: "Kill you again!"

This person didn't dare to move anymore, Zhao Ran took out the sharp stone, pressed it against his temple, and whispered: "I'll let go of your mouth, don't shout, just answer my question, I guarantee you'll be fine." Otherwise, we will die together!"

The man nodded, so Zhao Ran let go of the hand covering his mouth, and asked, "Why do you want to harm me today?"

As soon as the man was able to speak, he hurriedly begged for mercy in a low voice: "Little brother, spare my life, I am also forced to do so...... So you know it all...... It's not bad for me, Lord Xie cha persecuted me, saying that if I didn't agree, I couldn't guarantee my life......"

Zhao Ran shouted: "Are you confused? If you have human life on your hands, how can you still have your good? If you hurt me, you will never be able to live!"

The man nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "It's me who is confused, it's me who is confused, the little brother said it very ...... Alas, how do you offend Lord Shacha, and if you have a grudge, why do you want to involve me......?

Zhao Ran asked, "What should happen next?"

The man lamented: "The day after tomorrow, passing by Jiuyungang, the terrain is dangerous...... But how am I a good ......?"

Zhao Ran put away the sharp stone, slowly let go of him, and said in a low voice: "Even if you solve the problem, you don't dare to kill people openly, don't do foolish things anymore, just be careful on the road, and you will be fine if you get to Chuanling." Otherwise, you have to remember that the laws of the Ming Dynasty are clearly written, killing people is to pay for your life, how can a small solution save you!"

Zhao Ran got up and returned to the location of his shop, but saw that five or six figures on the shop turned over almost at the same time. He didn't bother to pay attention to these people, and lay down to sleep on his own.

The terrain of Jiuyungang is really more dangerous, but fortunately, Zhao Ran has taken precautions, so there is no danger to cross the hill. After passing here, the attitude of the fat and thin two chasers towards him was obviously bad, and he was inexplicably beaten several times when he was ordered to harm his own servants. That battle force was added to the stick, but he figured it out, and formed a tacit understanding with Zhao Ran, and the two walked and slept together, reminding each other and taking care of each other, making it even more difficult for the two to solve the problem.

In mid-April, the group crossed Qinglong Mountain, went out of Long'an Mansion, and entered the Song Domain.
