Early the next morning, Fang Chixiao took Lu Youling and them to say goodbye to Gao Shu, and Gao Shu didn't see yesterday's cloudy face, and took the initiative to show favor to Lu Youling, which made Lu Youling embarrassed.

"The passenger ship has been prepared for a few people, just go to the Xunjiang wharf not far away, get on the boat and cross the river to the territory of Rasheng, please take care, there is a messenger bird feathers here, if you need military support, you may as well scatter the feathers in the air, it will fly back to deliver a message to me." ”

Lu Youling took the fiery red feather and didn't feel any weight at all. Lu Youling had never seen a messenger bird, so he naturally didn't know that the feathers of this bird could transmit information, so he passed the feathers to Qu Chengfeng and Guo Ruolin to see, and they were all amazed.

"Then thank you Captain Gao, farewell!"

After leaving Gao Shu, the four of them drove the carriage to Xunjiang Wharf, and on the way Lu Youling asked: "Gao Shu is really strange, he blew his nose and stared at him last night, and now he not only sent it in person, but also gave us the feathers of the messenger bird, I am embarrassed." ”

Guo Ruolin explained on the side: "It's not because Fang Sitian went to see Gao Shu again last night, otherwise how could his attitude suddenly change. ”

Lu Youling sighed and said, "Then it's no wonder, by the way, Brother Fang, did you say anything to him?"

"Actually, I just went to warn him, let him be a little restless at this time, and when there is a time to make contributions in the future, sometimes it is necessary to be like this, it is useless to be polite to others, sometimes it is equal to grace and power, but it can be respected by others. ”

Lu Youling nodded and said, "Brother Fang, I have been taught, and I will definitely try to change in the future." ”

Unconsciously, the four of them arrived at the Xunjiang Wharf, in order to hide people's eyes, Fang Chixiao asked Gao Shu to arrange only a small boat, and there was only one boatman on the boat, and after the four of them got on the boat, they found that there were not so many people sitting in the cabin at all, so Fang Chixiao had to stand outside with the boatman.

Because it is upstream, you don't need to rock the boat to go down the river, about two sticks of incense or so, Fang Chixiao let everyone get off the boat, Lu Youling thought that he had arrived at the shore, so he led everyone out of the cabin, who knew that as soon as he came out, there were several short knives against his back.

"Grind, hurry!"

A soldier in armor was standing next to the cabin urging him to come out, Lu Youling looked around, and saw that Fang Chixiao and the boatman were being searched, it seemed that the ship did not dock, but met the soldiers of Luo Shengguo on the river.

"The two in it are also a little faster, grinding, if you don't come out again, I will be polite to you!"

"This military master, they are all my nephews, we are visiting relatives in Luosheng, you see, isn't there still customs clearance paperwork?"

"You know if there is going to be a war soon, you are not good at this thing now, I have the final say on whether you can cross the river or not!"

"How can this be reasonable, don't you even allow us to cross the river when you fight?"

Lu Youling was deeply indignant, Zhenjiang belongs to the shared river basin between the two countries in the strict sense, and when it becomes the Luo Sheng family has the final say, and this interrogating soldier is too domineering, it is no different from the pirates who block the road and rob them.

Sure enough, after hearing Lu Youling's words, that person immediately grabbed Lu Youling's collar and lifted him up.

"Look, everyone, there's a little ghost here who is not afraid of death, haha!"

The soldiers who were checking around laughed, and Fang Chixiao hurriedly dragged Lu Youling down, nodding his head and making amends. At the same time, he also glared at Lu Youling and signaled him not to cause trouble.

"Well, the brothers have been patrolling the river for four or five days, and no one has dared to come on the other side of the river. ”

"Damn!" Lu Youling was still shameless in broad daylight to buy road money, Lu Youling couldn't stand it, who knew that Fang Chixiao took out a silver ingot and handed it to the armor-wearing soldier and said with a smile: "This money is even the money for a few military masters to eat and drink, and please ask the military masters to have a convenient personality." ”

"Well, yes, you're a pretty good person, educate your nephew well, he's so open-mouthed, he doesn't know how to die if something happens. The soldier turned to the others and asked, "Did you find anything else?" ”

The entire cabin was turned upside down, Lu Youling and their bags were thrown everywhere, and Lu Youling was so angry that she stomped her feet. Fang Chixiao hurriedly protected him and scolded: "Amu, why are you so angry?"

"I just can't get used to these guys, they wear official uniforms, and they don't even do personnel, I really don't know how many people are bullied by them on this river. ”

"Forget it, don't complicate the situation, our top priority is to get down to business. ”

At this time, Guo Ruolin said: "Actually, either swallow your anger, or punish them, and take advantage of them not to go far and fight quickly, what's the use of sulking here?"

After Guo Ruolin's pulling, Lu Youling hurriedly asked for help as if she had just woken up from a dream, and Fang Chi said with a smile: "These people are used to being rampant and domineering on the river, if you don't punish them today, it will be difficult to dispel the evil anger in your heart, Brother Fang might as well teach them a lesson." ”

Fang Chi smiled and looked at the three of them: "Do you all mean this?"

Lu Youling nodded earnestly, Guo Ruolin looked indifferent, and Qu Chengfeng was at a loss, Fang Chi smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, I'll give you a little punishment and vent your evil anger for you." ”

Fang Chixiao took off in the air and caught up with the Luo Sheng official ship that had just gone a short distance.

Guo Ruolin glared at Lu Youling and said, "Why don't you go by yourself?"

Lu Youling said truthfully: "I'm worried that I won't be able to beat them. ”

"It's really ironic, the dignified Incense Pavilion Si Tian would be afraid of a few Luo Sheng pawns, but he had the courage to kill people. ”

"That's enough, Ah Lin, why do you keep mentioning this?"

"Because I think you're pretending to be too much, you pretend to be kind and simple in front of us every day, aren't you tired?"

"You think I faked it?"

"Otherwise, if it weren't for Deacon Bai asking me to follow you this time, I wouldn't have come here, if you still want to use your hypocrisy to get close to me, I advise you not to waste your efforts, of course, it doesn't matter if you rise up and kill me, a nameless boy, anyway, I'm a cheap life. ”

"Ah Lin, why do you think of me so much? I won't harm you no matter what!" I never thought that Guo Ruolin would have such a big prejudice against himself, Lu Youling originally left the matter of killing Fu Yuqiong by mistake, who knew that when he no longer minded, there were still people who were full of mustard.

"Ah Lin, I really killed Fu Yuqiong by mistake, this Chengfeng was present at the time, he can also testify, and I never thought of evading responsibility from beginning to end, don't treat me as a vicious person, okay?"

"And what did you just do? Don't you want to kill those soldiers?"

"What's the matter, you really misunderstood me!"

Lu Youling was speechless and anxious, but Guo Ruolin ignored it and returned to the cabin alone.

After a while, Fang Chi smiled and stepped back, and said with a smug face: "Just now, it was just a little trick, and I made those fateful officials become water dogs, haha, it's really enjoyable." As soon as he finished speaking, he found that Lu Youling not only did not clap his hands, but showed a look of grievance. Lu Youling stood on the bow of the boat and did not respond, while Qu Chengfeng spread his hands helplessly on the side.

The dinghy sailed for about another time of incense, and finally saw the corner of the flag on the pier on the other side, Lu Youling looked at the flag with three big characters written on it - 'Linjie Port', he couldn't help but think to himself, the river actually set up a port, it seems that Luo Sheng migrated from the sea This rumor has been corroborated.

"Are we disembarking at Linjie Harbor?"

Fang Chixiao also took a look, and found that there was a crowd of people on Linjie Port, and it seemed that because of the war, many people who had landed here were stranded.

"No, if we go ashore from here, I'm afraid we'll be stranded here, and I saw that we passed through an abandoned fishing village on the north shore just now, and I might be able to get ashore from there. ”

"That fishing village has been around for a long time. ”

"I have no choice but to go ashore from there on the way back. ”

Fang Chixiao asked the boatman to sail back again, because he was going upstream, so Fang Chixiao took the rest of the people to rock the oars together, and traveled back, and when everyone was exhausted, they finally found the abandoned fishing village.

This fishing village faces the Zhenjiang River, and the other three sides are surrounded by reeds, it seems that no one has been here for a long time, Fang Chixiao jumped off the boat first and then entered the fishing village to observe, and only after seeing that no one did he let Lu Youling and them land.

"It seems that no one has been here in this fishing village for a long time, are we planning to spend the night here today?" Lu Youling walked into a dilapidated house, and saw that it was full of cobwebs, and the ground was covered with fragments of clay pots and bowls. And the other three also searched every room one after another, and also found a lot of bottles and cans that were broken, Guo Ruolin became suspicious: "It's so strange here, it's obviously a fishing village, how can it be abandoned for so long." And it was as if the house had been ransacked. ”

Fang Chi smiled and nodded: "It seems that something must have happened to this place, you see that the fishing nets here are still drying on the shelves, even if these fishermen want to relocate, they should bring these guys who eat." ”

Lu Youling frowned and asked, "Could it be that Luo Sheng's foolish soldiers did it?"

"Maybe, anyway, we'll stay here for the night tonight, so let's be careful. ”

Fang Chixiao told everyone not to go too far, he casually cleaned up a fairly complete room, and then lit an open fire in the house.

"Brother Fang, I want to know how far away this is from Que City?"

Several people sat around the fire, Lu Youling was the first to ask, Fang Chixiao thought for a while, and replied that it was about one or twenty miles away.

"Now that the entire Rasheng is under martial law, how can we sneak into the city?"

"In fact, the king has already thought of this problem, he asked Qu Luotong to arrange a person to pick us up in Que City, as long as we can go to the outskirts of Que City, this person who responds will naturally have a way to take us in. ”

"But what about entering the city?"

"If He Jia is not on the front line of Zhenjiang, he must be in his palace Yuanwu Palace, but this Yuanwu Hall is heavily guarded and not so easy to sneak into, so I can only ask you to bow to He Jia, hoping to get his reception. ”

"What if he refuses to see me?"

"Then I can only sneak into the Yuanwu Hall and talk to He Jia in person. ”

Lu Youling sighed and began to worry about tomorrow...... (To be continued)
