After the whole family traveled across time and space to escape, my father was forced to ascend the

Mr. Tan continued: "Follow you, my old man. I have no other abilities. I also passed the Juren exam back then. I can open doors for the children and teach them how to read and calligraphy."

"Little girl, I know that your family is unusual or a hermit, or if you have any adventures, I know that I won't ask if you shouldn't. I just want to bring my granddaughter to you, and I have to leave a way out for my children and grandchildren."

Just lifting people?

Lin Jinyue looked at the old man's demeanor and felt that this man was extraordinary. Previously, Tan Xue said that they were businessmen, but she still didn't believe it.

Lin Jinyue felt that they looked like people who had been demoted or dismissed from office.

Lin Jinyue felt a little relaxed.

Lin Jinyue was naturally happy to have such a well-informed and high-status old man defect to them, and maybe their group's settlement problem could also be solved.

But when she thought about the consequences of those secrets being exposed, Lin Jinyue couldn't help but hesitate.

But after thinking about it in the end, as long as I was more careful, there was nothing else I could do with her except for the crossbow and telescope, which were a bit strange.

Oh, and Jiang Yun’s medical skills.

Mr. Tan's eyes were earnest, and he also said that if Lin Jinyue wanted to go to sea in the future, he could provide the blueprints for shipbuilding, and maybe ask his son-in-law to help get the nautical charts for going to sea.

Although the imperial court does not allow people to go to sea, they cannot bear the fact that the sky is high in Lingnan and the emperor is far away, so many people go to sea privately.

Lin Jinyue's eyes lit up when he heard this. Going to sea was his previous plan. With this chart, he would know which islands were occupied by bandits.

Then they can go around these dangerous islands and save Lin Jinyue the trouble of finding someone to draw a sea map.

Wealth and wealth are found in danger.

Thinking of this, Lin Jinyue decided to bring her grandfather and grandson with her.

Mr. Tan also breathed a sigh of relief.

He said to Lin Jinyue: "You are quite clever at a young age, but you will have great potential in the future."

Lin Jinyue had heard this many times and just smiled.

After the showdown with Mr. Tan, Lin Jinyue felt that it was not a big deal to secretly get a crossbow and a telescope. When she went to Lingnan in the future, she had to avoid people before making other plans.

Now she had to quickly ask the Wang family and Blacksmith Li to get as many good crossbow arrows as possible.

The crossbow arrows that Blacksmith Wang adjusted are very useful, much better than the previous ones that were sometimes ineffective.

Even the power has become stronger.

Lin Jinyue was very satisfied.

Let them take advantage of the last few days to make one more, lest they encounter a fierce beast in the future and have difficulty aiming, but the crossbow fails.

In these short ten days, Jiang Yun and the apprentices prepared all the medicinal materials and ground those that could be made into medicinal powder. The women, children, old and young in the village learned fighting skills for a period of time, and later faced the refugees. Rogue bandits are not completely powerless to fight back.

After ten days, Lin Jinyue was ready to leave.

Before leaving Yunsong County, I made an agreement with a merchant ship to be at the dock at noon tomorrow. Because there were so many of them, I was given a discount of some silver, equivalent to seven cents per person.

There were too many people in their group, and it was too expensive to stay in a hotel in the city. Lin Jinyue thought of setting off before dawn, taking a shortcut, and arriving before noon.

Everyone took advantage of the darkness and walked down the mountain.

The mountain road was not easy to walk, but fortunately, she was well prepared this time. Jiang Yun took out a few lanterns, which gave her some light.

The group of people walked all the way down the mountain.

Needless to say, the south side is just different from the north side, and everyone is a little uncomfortable with it.

Especially when we are approaching the border of Lingnan.

It's July now.

Although it was not as hot as the midsummer in later generations, it was not uncomfortable either. They were wearing coarse clothes, long sleeves and long trousers, and their bodies were soaked with sweat.

Wearing long sleeves is partly because of ancient customs, and partly because the bugs in the south are too fierce.

The whole family was wrapped up tightly, and Lin Jinyue kept scratching her neck and face.

Lin Shucheng and Jiang Yun felt so distressed.

They all carry insect-repellent herbal packs with them, but mosquitoes in the south are so poisonous that even with mugwort packs it is difficult to prevent them.

There is also a kind of mosquito, which is as big as a tiny speck and smaller than a flea. It is as small as a black dot and cannot be found without looking carefully.

This mosquito is so poisonous that one bite can cause a big bite.

When you are in the village, you can also use mugwort to fumigate the room. When you walk on the mountain road at night, you can't prevent the mosquitoes at all.

Lin Jinyue was bitten and lost her temper, so she could only move forward quickly.

She was sitting on the trolley, and the sounds of swatting mosquitoes could be heard all around her.

He pushed it directly to Lin Shucheng: "This is yours, we can't take it away."

Lin Jinyue walked with them for more than an hour, walking down the mountain with difficulty in the dark.

Once we got down the mountain, the road became easier to walk, and there were fewer annoying bugs.

When it gets daylight, the road will be easier to walk.

Fortunately, Lin Jinyue and the others set off early, otherwise at this speed, they would definitely not be able to catch the boat at noon.

When they arrived at the agreed pier, they saw a shadow of a person in the distance.

This group of people were a little nervous, after all, it was their first time taking a boat.

Lin Jinyue said to everyone: "Don't panic for a while, get on the boat slowly, and don't leave anything behind."

They approached the pier and saw a shadow of a person beside the boat in the distance. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Mr. Hu.

Everyone in Linjia Village breathed a sigh of relief.

On the road to escape, the most fearful thing is unintended consequences.

It was only last night that Lin Youcai heard Lin Jinyue and her parents mention the matter of Lu Yin, fearing that their group would not be able to enter the city.

There are just too many people here.

But what they didn't expect was that the guards guarding the city told them that the county magistrate wanted to be more lenient with them as refugees. There were more than 70 people, and the city entry fee was confiscated.

No, Lin Youcai was worried all the way, fearing that they would be detained.

Okay, okay, smooth journey.

The person who came to see him off was Lin Shucheng's good friend, Mr. Hu.

To be precise, he was actually Lin Jinyue's friend. However, due to his age and seniority, everyone subconsciously thought that this was someone Lin Shucheng knew.

Mr. Hu was also surprised when he looked at this group of people.

This situation was even worse than he imagined. How could this group of people spend money to smoothen their relationship?

Why do you think they are fleeing so much? It's okay to bring some pots and pans, why not take away the tents they made? It's a mess, and it will be a hassle to get on the boat.

Mr. Hu then said to Lin Jinyue: "Miss Lin, why don't you wait for me? Go get you some banknotes."

Mr. Hu only has more than 20 taels of silver ingots on his body. He does have some banknotes, but many banknotes are useless nowadays. Those merchants only recognize silver.

But now it was noon, and the captain came.

Lin Jinyue and the others had no choice but to board the ship.

Mr. Hu could only give them twenty taels of silver ingots and said, "If you have any difficulties, just come here to see me."
