The carriage started slowly, and all the Baling Gang members drove the carriage silently without saying a word. After leaving Xuchang City, the people in the troika had lost interest in talking in the vast snowy field. They leaned on the carriage and let it go quietly. The carriage takes you far away.
I don¡¯t know how much time passed, but although it was still snowing outside, people gradually became noisy again. Kou Zhong, who was the most uneasy, lifted the cotton curtain of the car window out of curiosity and looked out, only to find that the carriage had already arrived at a dock. []
It has to be said that water transportation was already quite large during the Sui Dynasty, so commerce was also considered developed. Therefore, even though it is still snowing, there are still many people coming and going at this dock, bringing the last glimmer of light to this turbulent empire.
"Yingshui has arrived, everyone, please move on to the boat." When they arrived at the river, Liu Tong shouted and the carriage stopped. Everyone had just got off the carriage when they heard a long laugh: "Hahaha, the sword master young hero and Qingxuan who can move the world are here, everyone in the gang is doubly honored! And Brother Kou, Brother Xu, Miss Susu, hello!"
Everyone looked at the sound, but saw that one person smiled and stepped forward. Although Xiang Yushan's face was pale and his steps were sloppy at this moment, the smile on his face was not forced at all. It seems that he is not afraid of Sword Lord, the messenger of justice who kills all the evil people in the world. Just this magnanimity has already made everyone present feel admiration and fear.
And behind Xiangyushan, there were many people, all of whom were clearly accomplished masters in cultivation. But beside him, there was also a beauty in white, leading four pretty maids, which attracted attention.
Seeing everyone looking at her, the beauty in white smiled cutely and bowed and saluted: "Xiao Huan, I have met you all. Please put your efforts into this trip."
Seeing that everyone's eyes were attracted to Xiao Huan, Xiang Yushan hurriedly introduced: "Sister Xiao is the sister of Xiao Mian, the deputy gang leader of our gang. She has always taken care of the daily needs of the concubines in the palace. She knows the situation in the palace very well. With her, According to my plan, my trip to Yuwen Clan is in danger."
After hearing Xiang Yushan¡¯s introduction, Kou Zhong and others looked at Xiao Huan with new eyes. Although Xiao Huan, a man of about 20 years old, is not as beautiful as Shen Luoyan, Shan Wanjing and others, he has a long body, a sultry figure, is very charming, and has an alluring and enchanting flavor.
Seeing the attention of so many people, Xiao Huan's smile became even brighter. He looked up and down at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling unscrupulously. When he turned his eyes again, he was shocked to realize that there was another ruthless person standing here. To a powerful man who makes the entire world fear him! His pupils shrank and he hurriedly looked away from the sword master who had been standing with eyes closed from beginning to end, as if he had melted into the cold wind, leaving no trace of his breath or presence, but a huge wave surged in his heart.
Forcing herself to laugh like a silver bell to cover up the horror in her heart, this young woman who can be regarded as the eldest princess of a country said with a perfect manner: "Haha, I have made you stand in the cold wind and heavy snow for so long, but you are still standing there for so long. I'm being rude. Please step on board the ship." As he said this, he turned sideways and took the lead. He led everyone onto a small boat on the pier and sailed towards a five-sail giant ship anchored in the middle of the river.
When they got on the ship, Xiao Huan was still the first to lead everyone towards the main cabin, while Xiang Yushan made a gesture to the sailors on the side, and then saw only those sailors who were scattered around the deck. He immediately became busy, either unmooring or manipulating the sails. It was obvious that he was ready to sail immediately.
Arriving at the main cabin, seats were already arranged around a large long table in the huge cabin. After everyone was seated, servants laid out a sumptuous banquet.
"It's getting late, and you must not have eaten yet. Please forgive me for the simple meal." At this moment, Xiangyu Mountain no longer has the freedom and ease it had when it was at the dock. I originally thought that the Sword Lord wanted something from his Baling Gang this time, so I thought that even if I couldn't eliminate the other party's bad feeling towards my side, I could at least establish a friendly relationship with them based on my words and deeds. But I don't expect that the other party has been standing with closed eyes from beginning to end. If he doesn't look at it, he will seem to disappear without any sense of existence. But as long as he takes a look, it will make people feel a sense of fear and fear from the deepest part of their hearts. . Such a person was unceremoniously at the top of the list at this moment. Even though he, Xiangyushan, boasted of being all-rounded and well-rounded, he could not arouse the atmosphere at the dinner table!
This was undoubtedly an extremely boring meal. Jianjun was expressionless and ate slowly with chopsticks, while the old monk and the young monk also lowered their heads and only ate the vegetarian food that was placed in front of them. Shi Qingxuan also ate elegantly with a straight face and a noble look. She was still thinking about Liu Heitai who had just parted, and she was silent even though she was heartbroken, while Zhenzhen took a bite and glanced at Jianjun, but there was no one else in her eyes. At this point, only Xiangyushan, Xiao Huan, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling are considered normal.However, I was already so suppressed that I didn¡¯t know what to say.
Finally, amidst the slanders of the four people, the sword master finally put down the chopsticks in his hand, nodded to everyone like a proud master, turned around and left. Hall Master Liu who was standing behind him was excited, hurriedly stepped forward, and led the young man towards He walked to the cabin that had been prepared for everyone, followed by the little tail Zhenzhen who hurriedly put down his chopsticks and followed quickly. The boy's behavior was like a signal. Before the sword master left, Shi Qingxuan also stood up gracefully, and then the old monk led the young monk to thank Xiang Yushan and Xiao Huan, and then went to the cabin, followed by Su Su, who was in a complicated mood and had no appetite.
Seeing that most of the people at the table had left, Xiang Yushan let out a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly: "The power of the young swordsman is indeed extraordinary. Xiang was already dripping with cold sweat for a long time!"
"Yushan is right. The Nu family is also frightened." Xiao Huan also felt uncomfortable.
"Ha! Maybe it's because the Twelve Young Masters are too famous now?" Looking at the two of them, Kou Zhong felt sad and said with a smile.
"Young Master Zhong is right. Ever since the Twelve Young Masters destroyed Xingyang City with one sword. Even though he is still as gentle to us as he was at the beginning, in our hearts, the height of our admiration has become difficult to change. "Xu Ziling nodded and sighed softly.
The atmosphere at the dinner table finally started to liven up. The four people, each with their own thoughts in mind, began to discuss the details of the trip. The sword master in the cabin once again placed Yuwen Chengdu's slightly rusty spear across his knee.
The scene of the battle between heroes has begun, and the vaguely remembered plot in the original work has been changed beyond recognition. The young man who had long been awakened knew that from now on he could rely on almost nothing, except his ability to be passable in this world. Naturally, the sword master would not let go of any opportunity to work hard. What's more, this time when going to Jiangdu, the young man had other things on his mind.
Now that the Confucian Purple Qi has been absorbed into the body, it is difficult to use it. Confucianism has always paid attention to monarch and ministers. It can be further divided into the way of a gentleman¡¯s self-effacement and the way of governing the king and his ministers. Therefore, the young man believes that Yang Guang, who is going to meet the king of that country this time, will definitely help and promote the Confucian purple energy in his body!
From Xuchang to Jiangdu, even if you go down the river, it is by no means close to everyone. All the way down, Yingyang and Wuping have passed, and life on the ship can be considered peaceful. Except for the two boys Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling who still have simple communication with Xiang Yushan and others, Jian Jun, Zhen Zhen, Shi Qingxuan and Monk Yuan Hui are incompatible with everyone on the ship, just like people from two different worlds. And this peaceful journey lasted until Yun Yuzhen, who had belonged to Du Fuwei's Jianghuai Army, boarded the ship, and then there was another wave.
This time Yun Yu really got on the ship, but she brought a piece of news.
Since Yun Yuzhen worshiped Du Fuwei as his adoptive father, with the assistance of Jianghuai Army, the original intelligence network has become more and more sophisticated. And Yun Yuzhen, who already has such a backer, no longer has to show up as frequently as before. As a result, although his reputation in the world is weaker than before, his status in the minds of the upper class is also more important.
But this time, the news that Yun Yuzhen brought was that Li Zitong, who was also located in Jianghuai and had already established a huge power in Yangzhou, somehow found out about the news that Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling were going south to Jiangdu. , preparing to intercept them halfway and capture the two of them, hoping to ask for information on the whereabouts of Yang Gong's treasure house.
