As soon as it was dawn the next day, Mao Zheng walked out of the cabin early, and the cold of late autumn condensed Mao Zheng's breath into a white mist, but this slightest coolness made his heart even more hot with excitement. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Is Daoist Liu Yushi here? It's not easy to go out, so let's have breakfast together." Hey, why is there no one?" Mao Zheng thought of Liu Yushi, and casually shouted to the next door, but when he turned to look over, the boat Liu Yushi was in was no longer there, only the empty river was left, floating in the cold wind.
"Maybe Daochang Liu is in a hurry and left overnight. I hope he can get his wish this time, but he won't encounter any danger. Mao Zheng muttered to himself.
After breakfast, Wu Yat-sen asked the boatman to continue on his way. Mao Zheng looked at Yangzhou City in the north, endured it, and secretly said in his heart, "Yangzhou and Jinling should be similar, and there is nothing to go or not." He went back to the cabin and continued his reading.
In the Song Dynasty, the imperial court built a number of canals with Bianjing as the center, connecting several major water systems in the country. Mao Zheng only needs to follow the Grand Canal to reach Bianjing directly. It's not slow, and it's pretty stable.
But a few days after leaving Guazhoudu, there was a strong wind on the river, and the wind stirred the river, making it difficult for Mao Zheng's boat to move forward.
"Uncle Wu, how can there be such a strong wind at this season, can we still reach Bianjing on time?" Mao Zheng said to Wu Zhongshan against the wind.
"It's a little strange, it is said that such a strong wind should not blow at this time?" Wu Zhongshan also said puzzled.
"Uncle Wu, do you think this is someone deliberately casting a spell to stop us from moving forward? I feel that there is something wrong with the Shazhu in front of me?" Mao Zheng felt something, but he couldn't be sure, so he just said to Wu Zhongshan with a little suspicion.
"What! Someone is trying to harm us?" Wu Zhongshan exclaimed.
"Uncle Wu, don't worry, I just feel a little uncomfortable, maybe I'm suspicious. We don't have any enemies, and we don't have any money, how can anyone harm us?" Mao Zheng was surprised when he saw Wu Zhongshan, and he was embarrassed for a while, so he said with a smile.
"Our Lady has told me before that your qualifications are not ordinary, and you are sensitive to danger. If you feel that there is danger, then there must be danger. This trip is still safety first, you hurry up and go ashore with me, even if it takes some more time, I will send you to Bianjing safely. Wu Zhongshan showed a decisiveness that he didn't usually have, and immediately let the boatman dock, intending to bypass the sand Zhu in front.
Mao Zheng felt that Wu Zhongshan was making a fuss, but according to Wu Zhongshan's instructions, he packed up and prepared to leave the boat.
Just when Wu Zhongshan took Mao Zheng away from the canal and hurriedly walked towards the nearby town. One of the people in Shazhu appeared, glanced at Wu Zhongshan's back, and then turned around and said, "Are you sure, that is the Taoist priest of the Heavenly Master Dao?"
"It can't be wrong, if it weren't for the Taoist priest of the Heavenly Master's Dao, how could he have fled just when he saw this gale? One replied.
"Originally, I wanted to use this strong wind to block the Taoist priest for some time, and then everyone solved him together, so that the chances of winning would be a little higher. But I can't let him escape, I'll chase him and test him to see if I can stop him. The first one said.
"That Taoist priest may have a seven-star sword on him, and if you go so rashly, you may encounter failure. Let's wait for the others to come, set up the magic circle, and then work together. Another person persuaded.
"I just learned a few secret techniques from Shizun, which can be used against him. You can rest assured, even if he has the seven-star sword in his hand, there is no chance to use it. The man just smiled contemptuously, and then jumped ashore a few times and chased Wu Zhongshan away.
