Suya

Several people quietly crawled in the tunnel for four or five hours, and when they finally climbed into an abandoned well, they climbed out covered in dirt by the rope hanging in the well, and the sky was already dimly lit.

There was a cool breeze blowing, making the messy hair of several people fluttering.

You Baiyan sneezed, climbed down from Feng Xiao's back, rubbed her nose with her left hand, and said, "This well is on the outskirts of this city, and it has been abandoned for a long time. We can walk east to the ferry soon." , and then take a boat to Wancheng, and then take a boat across the sea in Wancheng, and you will be able to reach Fengguo soon."

Feng Chenwen looked around for a while, and suddenly asked: "Is there a 'Lebi River' over there?"

Ju Baiyan wondered: "Yes, how do you know?"

Feng Chen glanced at him, on the surface calm, but in his heart he was angry and amused, he thought helplessly—how could I not know, a few days ago your senior brother told me that I was not familiar with the water system in Liguo, even I don't even bother to make up excuses to lie to me, so I just moved Jiang here a bit, and I fucking believed him.

The bearded man patted him on the shoulder knowingly, and pretended to shake his head deeply and sighed.

Feng Chen kicked him out, and the bearded man looked at him sadly while covering his buttocks.

You Baiyan looked at the two of them speechlessly for a while, and said: "Those people will soon find out that we have escaped, if we don't leave now, when they kill here, everyone will be directly poked into hedgehogs by arrows. "

The bearded man and Feng Chen immediately coughed at the same time, pulled their clothes, put on a serious look and walked forward.

When they came to the entrance of the village, Hongzao had already been guarding there early in the morning, and when they saw Feng Chen walking over in small steps, she still had the air of an aristocratic woman.

Feng Chen patted the horse and said: "Xiao'er, you and that kid go to the ferry first, and Lao Cheng and I will go find two horses."

Feng Xiao nodded, picked up You Baiyan and planned to carry him to the horse, but Hong Zao suddenly became awkward, and refused to let them ride it no matter what.

Feng Chen had no choice but to ask the others to find a safe place to hide first, and then rode back to the city by himself. Fortunately, he was lucky, he met a caravan just after entering the city, and after buying two of their horses to carry goods, he returned to the city. Quickly rushed back.

No one dared to delay any longer, they rode their horses all the way to the ferry quickly.

It was almost noon when we arrived at the ferry.

There is a boat moored on the river, with a shallow flat cabin, narrow from the front to the rear, and extra wide in the middle, in the shape of a willow leaf.

You Baiyan asked the owner of the ship and found out that this was a ship going to Jinghong City in Qiongguo, and it didn't leave at any moment.

You Baiyan inquired again when there would be a boat to Wancheng. The black and thin ship owner shook his head and said that too many things happened in Liguo recently, and the general of Fengguo died here inexplicably. The current relationship is very delicate, and the national teacher has gone to seal the country again, and his life and death are uncertain. The prime minister who is currently in charge of the government and the national teacher have always been at odds, and I don't know if he will take the opportunity to weaken the power of the national teacher in the court.Therefore, the current situation in Liguo is unstable and there are many changes. Many merchants take a wait-and-see attitude and start hoarding goods. They don't go to Wancheng to do business as frequently as before. But these people are a minority after all, so it really depends on luck to have a boat. If you are lucky, you may have it in three or four hours. If you are unlucky, you may have to wait ten days and a half months.

Feng Chen and the others were running for their lives and going to save their lives, how could they wait so long, they rushed up immediately after hearing this, put a knife on the captain's neck, and forced him to divert the ship.

You Baiyan was startled, and hurriedly grabbed them, and pushed them out of the boat angrily, shouting: "You barbarians, put down your swords!"

It's a pity that he was single and weak, and he was thrown aside by the collar in a few strokes.

The captain was forced to retreat to the edge of the ship, with two gleaming white swords around his neck, one left and one right, and a man staring at him with a murderous face in front of him, he had never seen such a formation as an ordinary Li countryman. Immediately, I was so frightened that I shook into a sieve.

When the people in the boat heard the commotion, they all ran out to watch. Some of the timid ones were frightened back, and the bolder ones shouted dissatisfiedly: "Who are you, why are you being unreasonable?! Hurry up!" Let people go!"

Feng Chen ignored them at all, and continued to threaten the poor ship owner viciously.

Li Guo is gentle and gentle by nature, not to mention fighting with others, he is not even good at quarreling, now when he meets such a fierce and unreasonable person like Feng Chen, although he feels angry but has no choice but to persuade him noisily for a long time, He didn't even say a few ugly words, let alone rushed forward to pull people away.

The captain was half lying on the deck pitifully, too frightened to speak.

During the commotion, a voice came from behind the crowd: "The people in front give way, give way."

The crowd immediately parted, and a path was made in the middle. A young man came out, followed by a black and thin old man.The old man's facial features were quite similar to those of the ship's owner, who was paralyzed and trembling on the ground. His stature was slightly shorter, and his muscles had shrunk, but he still looked lean. It was conceivable that he must have been very strong and powerful when he was young.

He bit a cigarette stick in his mouth, frowned and looked at Feng Chen and the others. Although the deeply sunken eyes had begun to become cloudy, they were still very sharp.The knife-like face is covered with wrinkles, the cheeks are sunken, and the slightly protruding cheekbones appear to be more prominent.

He took down the tobacco rod he was biting in his mouth and asked, "Who are you?"

His body voice was a little hoarse, but his words were clear and full of energy.

Feng Chen withdrew his sword, looked at the old man and said, "Feng Guoren."

The onlookers were stunned for a moment, and then immediately exploded, chattering, with expressions of surprise, fear, and contempt on their faces.

The old man had no expression on his face, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Feng Chen for a while, took a leisurely breath on the cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and said in a hoarse voice: "Come with me."

The young man on the side was taken aback: "Grandfather...they are from the country!"

The old man turned around, walked a few steps forward, used the cigarette stick to lift the curtain covering the bamboo shed, and said as he walked in, "Come in."

Beard and Feng Xiao withdrew their swords, and followed along with Feng Chen.

The young man looked at them with dissatisfaction and concern, sighed helplessly, and ran to the boat deck to help the boatman.

After entering the cabin, the old man sat down on his own, smoked a cigarette, and said, "Sit down."

Feng Chen sat down opposite him, and You Baiyan, Feng Xiao and Big Beard sat on the vacant seats on both sides.

The old man was smoking a cigarette, his cloudy eyes were dimly covered by the rising smoke rings.He looked at Feng Chen for a while, and asked, "What are you doing in Wancheng?"

Feng Chen also looked at his face carefully, and replied calmly: "We are going back to Feng Kingdom."

"What are you going to do back?"

"Rescue."

The old man looked at him quietly.

In the dark cabin, the flickering, fragmented flame on the bong was exceptionally bright.The blue smoke fluttered on the pipe, rose to the sky in a plume, and gradually melted into nothingness.

After a long time, the old man opened his mouth and said slowly: "You may not be able to save this man."

The light in Feng Chen's eyes flickered, and he looked at the old man with sharper eyes: "How do you know that I will not be able to save you?"

The old man didn't take his eyes seriously, took a sip, and smoked as usual.

The curtain was suddenly lifted, and the light from outside poured in, which was a bit dazzling.

The young man who was outside the boat just now bent over and walked in, looked at Feng Chen and the others warily, walked up to the old man and said, "Grandpa, brother is fine, he asked me to ask you, this boat... …”

He glanced at Feng Chen, then turned his head and continued, "Where should I go?"

The old man tapped the soot on the sole of his shoe and said flatly, "Go the same way."

"Okay." A look of joy flashed across the young man's face, he stood up and glanced at Feng Chen, and walked out of the cabin, there was a hint of stubbornness and arrogance in his eyes.

Feng Chen smiled inwardly—it is said that although people from the Li Kingdom are usually kind, once things touch their own principles, they will become extremely stubborn and will never give in easily.In the past few days, Feng Chen has learned enough.
