The three landed safely on the shore and escaped by chance, but soon, they faced a new problem. .
Without a boat, how can we travel next?
Mei Siniang and Feng Qianjin risked their lives by going overland to help divert the enemy away, allowing the two of them to take the water by surprise so that they could reach Jianshui City quickly and safely.Who would have thought that the ship sank after only a few hours away!There are still nearly two hundred miles away from Jianshui City, what should I do?
Mu Feng and Jing Wushuang remained silent, they understood the seriousness of the matter without further words.
No matter Immortal Sword Sect or Blind Master Bi Luotian, they must have laid down many blockades along the way.Without a wooden boat, it would undoubtedly be very difficult to get to Jianshui City quickly by land, and it was even a dream come true.
"Master Mu, you... seem to have met your enemies?"
The old man Li, who had matured into a mature man, observed his words and demeanor, and he didn't need to ask more to understand that the situation of Mu Feng and Jing Wushuang was not good and they were in trouble.
"That's right, we met a big enemy. I made an agreement with a genius to fight to the death in three years' time, but a big master next to him was ruthless, and he couldn't wait to do it in less than three years. If he didn't kill me, he would die." I swear not to give up!"
Mu Feng paused, glanced at the downcast old man Li, took out some broken silver from his body, and then said: "Old Li, unfortunately, there is no way to send you to Jianshui City. My enemy will definitely not let us go." Two, with us, even you will be implicated. This small piece of silver is not much, but it is also our two wishes. You accept it, and let it be a burden on the road, and go alone first!"
"Okay, I really have nothing now, and I just need some money urgently. Mr. Mu, my old man is not welcome!"
Old man Li was not polite, and quickly accepted the broken silver, changed his tone, and continued sincerely: "However, Mr. Mu, you are kind to my old man; if you say this at this time, let me go alone first, then it is really a shame." It's too strange.. I, old man Li, have no skills, but I have been a businessman for many years. Who hasn't seen anyone? No matter how powerful your enemy is, I don't believe that he can really block all the roads leading to Jianshui City. There is no unparalleled road, as long as we work together, there must be a way!"
Unexpectedly, after witnessing the assassination of the Jianshui Five Ghosts and Daoduoliu, Old Man Li did not back down and was obliged to stay.He is as talkative as an ordinary businessman, but he has a sincerity that most businessmen don't have, and he knows how to reciprocate, which is impressive!
It seems that it was no accident that this old man was able to win the trust of so many merchants when he was at the Maguan Inn.
On the one hand, it is because of his rich experience, and more importantly, because of his character.Perhaps because of this, he is too sincere, without the treachery and cunning of ordinary businessmen, so he can accomplish nothing.I have been working hard outside for almost a lifetime, but in the end I didn’t make much money. I am still working hard for three meals a day when I am old, and I am down and out like I am today.
"This old man, is he too stubborn, or does he not understand the real danger?
Looking at old man Li who was determined to stay, Mu Feng shook his head and smiled wryly.
He can't say much about some things.This old man Li seems to know how to repay his kindness, and he really doesn't seem to be a bad person, but people's hearts are far away from him, knowing people's faces but not their hearts, it is better to keep some secrets in your heart.This is just in case, and also for the good of the old man.Sometimes, knowing too much is not a good thing!
"Brother Mufeng, why don't we wait here to see if there are any boats passing by. Or, just go up the mountain and cut some mangosteens, and make a bamboo raft to float down the river?" After a moment of silence, Jing Wushuang made a suggestion.
Although he is a landlubber who is naturally afraid of water, he looks resolute when he looks at the surging flood.The situation is beyond one's control, at this time, one can only go all out.
Hearing what she said, old man Li quickly agreed, "Yes, just make a bamboo raft and go down the river. Compared with a small wooden boat, the speed is not much slower. Mr. Mu, that's the decision. My old man often traveled by water when he was young. , just let me support the bamboo raft! The technology can’t be said to be very good, but it’s absolutely no problem to go down the river to Jianshui City!”
"no!"
Jing Wushuang and old man Li agreed, but this method was rejected by Mu Feng, "It is not difficult to make a simple bamboo raft, but it is absolutely impossible to go down the river safely to Jianshui City. Since we sent The enemy must have known our whereabouts. After we delayed here for a while, we gave them more time to calmly arrange. Not surprisingly, the river and ferry ahead must have been blocked at this time. Now, take the waterway It's no longer safe either!"
Sitting cross-legged on the shore, Mu Feng calmly deduced the enemy's reaction and deployment.
Hearing what he said, the experienced old man Li nodded, knowing that he was right.Impossible to travel by land, nor by water, Jing Wushuang, who was already anxious, became more and more worried, "Brother Mufeng, what should we do?"
"Go overland!"
Mu Feng took out the map prepared by Mei Siniang from his arms, quickly spread it out, pointed to a small dot on the map and said, "Look, this is Fengkou Gorge, and this is probably where we are now. Abandon the ship and board the map from here." Go along the official road for about 38 miles to the next ferry, Hetian Village. After another [-] miles, there is another ferry, Shigeng Bay. Not surprisingly, the enemy must have deployed heavy troops in Hetian Village, waiting for the rabbit. .We can take the land route, cross Hetian Village and go straight to Shigeng Bay, and then suddenly change to the water route from here!"
"it is good!"
Old man Li and Jing Wushuang's eyes lit up, and they echoed loudly.But soon, the delicate Jing Wushuang thought of the crux of the problem, "The enemy has no plans. Even if they transfer heavy troops to the waterway, there are still many secret sentries on the land, and they even sent people to check along the way. From here to Shigeng Bay, how to Walk?"
"That's right, this is the key!" Mu Feng's face was serious.
"Master Mu, the old man has a suggestion!"
Old man Li looked at Mu Feng, and continued slowly: "Haste makes waste, the faster the speed, the more dusty the world, the easier it is to attract the attention of others. This section of the road, we might as well walk slowly instead of sitting Carriage, let alone horseback riding, change to an ox cart that is common to country people, and dress up as three country people and drive there slowly."
Disguise?
Mu Feng and Jing Wushuang glanced at each other, and nodded in unison. Jiang is still old and hot, and old man Li is really knowledgeable.But the next moment, when you look at me and I look at you, you can't help frowning.It's easy to put on makeup as a countryman, but it's not so easy to really pretend to be a countryman!
"Master Mu, don't worry, leave the job of makeup to my old man."
The old man Li observed the words and expressions, and quickly understood the worries of Mu Feng and Jing Wushuang, and then said: "My old man has traveled all over the world and has been in business for so many years. He hasn't made any money, and he hasn't learned much. But he disguised himself and dressed you two as Country folks, there's nothing wrong with that!"
"it is good!"
Mu Feng nodded resolutely, looking at Old Man Li with a hint of surprise and respect.Unexpectedly, I couldn't bear to refuse for a while, and let this down-and-out old man board the boat; in the end, I did myself a big favor in turn!
