Early the next morning, Jin Yue went to the Sifu Yamen to handle the relevant seals, and then went to the Express Yamen to exchange the customs clearance certificate. Then he rode his horse to the south of the city.

When he arrived at the ferry, Jin Yue really understood what it meant to be a shipping destination. Bluestone paving, a hundred zhang open ferry, just docked on both sides of the ferry, there are hundreds of them.

Thousands of porters carry all kinds of goods on the docks. The brightly dressed business traveler counted the goods with an anxious face, and discussed something with the blue-clothed people on the ferry pier from time to time.

"This must be the Whale Gang. ”

Jin Yue muttered in his heart, as early as yesterday, when chatting with the inn guys, Jin Yue had already learned that the three major ferries in Kuohai City were in the hands of the three gangs of the Giant Whale Gang, Lian Rudder and Haisha Faction.

The power of these three factions is so strong that there are as many as three or four people in the gang who are congenital masters. Not to mention the financial and material resources accumulated by controlling the three major ferries for so many years.

After paying a little attention, Jin Yue followed the instructions of the innkeeper to find a sea ship that had recently gone to Zhao State, handled the consignment documents, and led the horses to board the ship.

Sea vessels are slightly different from the boats that sail the canals on a regular basis, most notably because of their sheer size and thick keels. In order to adapt to the rough seas, the sea boat gives a sense of grandeur as a whole.

After placing the horses in the consignment hold, Jin Yue entered the rest cabin and sat down cross-legged according to the room number shown on the document, and practiced quietly.

In order to better cultivate, Jin Yue paid some silver taels and chose a single room with a good environment. If it weren't for the fact that his uncle Xiahou Chun bought a lot of silver taels for Jin Yue when he went out, it would have been a bit troublesome.

The sea ship sails, and the long distance is bumpy, and even Jin Yue today occasionally feels a little dizzy. Fortunately, it has been a few days of cultivating and practicing qi, and with a slight mobilization of mana in the body, you can quickly return to normal.

After sailing for three or four days, Jin Yue finally entered the territory of Zhao as scheduled, and found an inn at the local ferry to rest for the night.

Early the next morning, Jin Yue was introduced by the inn buddies and joined a caravan that traveled between Yan and Zhao all year round.

Why go with the caravan? It's also for safety. If you want to cross the Zhao State and enter the Yan Kingdom, you must follow Yuezhou and travel in the direction of the Hengbei Desert.

The Hengbei Desert is located at the junction of Yan and Zhao, and if you want to pass through a life-devouring place like this, you must follow an experienced caravan to move forward. As long as you're willing to pay a little more, you'll get extra attention from the caravan guards along the way.

The caravan that Jin Yue followed was a merchant group of about two or three hundred people who traveled back and forth between Yan and Zhao all year round. Among these merchants, there were those who made ceramics, silk and spices, in short, there were many items.

Like Jin Yue, there were also many merchants who relied on the caravan to lead the way, and the total number accounted for less than one-tenth of the caravan. In addition to the merchants and dependent merchants, the caravan escort made up two-fifths of the entire ranks.

These caravan guards were all hired by the merchants at a great price. Jin Yue once heard a spice merchant say that two-thirds of his annual profits were spent on the escort of the merchants.

This is also a matter of no choice, and the trade route is not smooth. Without the protection of these blood-licking guards, it would be difficult for the caravans to reach their destination.

Half a month later, Jin Yue followed the caravan and officially entered the Hengbei Desert.

Before entering the desert, the leader of the camel team escort "Brother Kui", a burly man with dark skin and strong body, also reminded Jin Yue of some precautions for crossing the desert.

It's not because he's enthusiastic, it's because Jin Yue paid an extra amount of silver taels when he joined the caravan.

No one knows Kuigo's real name, but the caravan's guards hold him in high esteem. Because he is the only one of all the guards who has reached the ultimate master.

In addition, Brother Kui travels back and forth to the North Desert all year round, and is very familiar with the terrain in this area, and in the hearts of the young guards, Brother Kui is their backbone.

It is worth mentioning that just two days ago, Jin Yue's cultivation officially entered the second-layer realm of qi training, and the mana in his body increased more than three times, and he could even cast some primary spells with less waste.

One of the things that made Jin Yue most pleased was a primary technique called Wind Resisting Technique, which after being cast, it could make people as light as a swallow for a certain period of time, and it was not inferior to the light masters in the world.

In terms of Jin Yue's current mana, performing the Wind Resisting Technique three times is already the limit.

Hengbei Desert, thousands of miles of yellow sand, the scorching sun is not the slightest obstruction, directly shining on the high temperature of the yellow sand. From time to time, several vultures flew in the sky, as if waiting for the "lambs" who had fallen behind.

Jin Yue took out the water bag prepared in advance and took a sip to relieve his dry lips. The camel under the crotch slowly followed the caravan.

Before entering the desert, Jin Yue sold the horses he bought in Kuohai City and exchanged them for a sturdy camel as Kui Ge said.

To be on the safe side, Jin Yue also bought a large amount of water and food to quietly put in a storage bag. In order not to attract the attention of people with a heart, Jin Yue has been using portable water and dry food, and has not touched the materials in the storage bag.

"Brother Yue, I see that you haven't drunk much water these days, there should be a lot, can you give me some?" spoke an obese young man.

This person's surname is Li, and he went to Yan Kingdom to join distant relatives. I don't know if I was born to eat or what, but I only entered the desert for a few days, and I ate almost enough water and dry food on my body.

"Well, it's okay to share some with you, but I don't have much dry food and water with me, so I will give you some this time, and I won't be able to do anything next time." Jin Yue pretended to hesitate for a while, and took out some water from the kettle and gave it to the other party.

"Thank you, thank you, Brother Yue, you are a good person. In Jin Yue, the fat man praised with a happy face.

Jin Yue smiled slightly, nodded, and drove the camel forward. The fat man who left behind him and continued to beg for water and food from others.

"You really shouldn't have given him your water just now, in the desert, water and food are your life. Brother Kui, who had everything in his eyes, saw Jin Yue following up, and reminded in a flat voice.

"Hehe, I don't consume much every day anyway. The water and food on the body should be enough. Jin Yue smiled slightly when he heard this.

Seeing that Jin Yue didn't care so much, Brother Kui didn't bother to say anything, opened the kettle and took a small sip of water into his mouth, and continued to observe the surrounding terrain.

Under the leadership of Brother Kui, he didn't encounter any big trouble along the way, and occasionally encountered a few bandits, and under Brother Kui's "bribe", he was very happy to make it convenient for the caravan.

According to Brother Kui, as a merchant group guard, what you eat is human food. Which road to take and which mountain to worship are all particular. Don't look at the high remuneration they receive from the merchant group, there is not much left in their pockets along the way.

As for why they didn't fight the bandits? Hmph, in these days, who is willing to exchange their lives for the problems that can be solved with money? In the words of the guards, if the money is gone, it can be earned again, and if the life is gone, the old and the young will not be reduced to orphans and widows and be bullied and bullied?

(Chapter talk: I'm starting to dig a pit, everyone help me keep an eye on it, don't let me forget it, hehe.) At the end, I still hope that everyone will support, recommend, and collect this book, thank you. ）
