In the next two days, Bai Ziyue ignored any rumors from the outside world and stayed at home, potentially cultivating the internal refining method Vajra Glass Body.In the past two days, with the help of the effect of double the cultivation speed of the Fa Xiang Jing Soul Incense, Bai Ziyue has gained a lot.He could clearly feel that his heart had been strengthened, and when it beat, it was surging and powerful, making his strength seem to grow more quickly and fiercely.Even his physique and strength have been improved and increased a little.It's just that at this time, he still hasn't been able to get started with the internal refining exercises, the Vajra glass body.Therefore, in terms of strength, his improvement is not as huge as he imagined.Two days have passed, and Bai Ziyue is actually not ignorant of the outside world.In addition to listening to people chatting when he occasionally went out to eat, the day before, Qin Shaoping also came to the door to ask for advice on martial arts, and talked about some things.Therefore, Bai Ziyue learned that don't look at the calm outside world at this time, as if nothing had happened.In fact, the rumors in Qinghe Town have been very tight.In the past few days, Li Xun and Li Zhubo have come forward many times to visit the people of various forces in the town, either coercing or luring, and with the help of their official status, they have set off a huge call to suppress bandits.It is estimated that soon, it will sweep out and reach the ears of ordinary people.And the opportunity is estimated to come soon."
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
”Suddenly, outside Bai Ziyue's courtyard gate, there were knocks one after another."
Looks like I'm going to have to go through this again."
Bai Ziyue thought in his heart, and without hesitation, he directly opened the door.Sure enough, the person who appeared outside the door was the person close to Mr.
Hou, the housekeeper Xu.Last time, Mr.
Hou proposed to let him return the favor, originally to let him deliberately fail in the competition and give up his outstanding disciple to Li Yingru.Such a self-destructive future and self-destruction of the future, Bai Ziyue is naturally unwilling to do it.Yes, he directly refused.Immediately afterwards, Mr.
Hou made another request.In Bai Ziyue's heart, he is not the kind of person who has no faith in his words and does not know how to repay his kindness, and what the other party said, it seems that it is not too difficult, so he agreed.At this point, it was time for him to make good on his promise."
Bai Shaoxia, please leave to you what the master ordered."
Steward Xu looked at Bai Ziyue and spoke."
Lead the way."
Bai Ziyue said calmly: "In addition, this time, I owe Mr.
Hou a favor, but that's it."
I hope you can bring a message to Mr.
Hou at that time. ”"Naturally, as long as the things can be delivered smoothly, even if Bai Shaoxia repays the favor of the year, the master naturally can't let you do anything anymore."
Steward Xu nodded again and again, and walked outside first.Bai Ziyue followed with a calm face.walked all the way, and soon Bai Ziyue followed Steward Xu to a big river.I only heard Steward Xu howl softly, and soon, a small boat sailed out from under a willow tree not far from the river.On top of the boat, there were several strong, dark-faced people who had been exposed to the sun, rowing oars, and approached directly."
Master Xu, I'm tired."
One of the leaders first said hello to Steward Xu, and then he looked at Bai Ziyue's body, and asked hesitantly: "This young man, can you really let us pass the inspection on the river safely?"
”"Most of the people patrolling the river now are people from my Burning Sun Gang, and this one next to me is a disciple of the Burning Sun Gang.With him as a guarantee, any cargo can be easily delivered to the other side. ”Steward Xu said confidently."
In this way, I am relieved."
The leading man breathed a sigh of relief and said relaxedly."
Wait, I want to ask, is it really just cotton that you're shipping?"
Suddenly, Bai Ziyue's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked.Hearing this, the hearts of several big men were tight, they glanced at each other, and then looked at Steward Xu."
Haha, of course it's cotton, but it's mixed with some private salt.Bai Shaoxia, I think you must also know that if it's really just cotton, the master can't ask you to help escort it.Although this private salt is controlled by the government, the profit is also high.It's also this time that you really have to be in a hurry, the master just thought of your head, knowing that your face is big, and the disciples who patrol on the river don't dare to check your things" Steward Xu's face remained unchanged and explained softly."
I hope it's not something that is officially forbidden, otherwise you and I will be unlucky."
Bai Ziyue nodded, as if accepting the other party's statement, after all, he also knew that the reason why Hou Linkun invited him was definitely the things he wanted to escort, which were some officially controlled items.Illicit salt is one of the official controlled substances.There may be something else mixed in, but as long as it's not officially forbidden, he doesn't care too much."
Of course, even if we have the guts to do that, we don't dare to touch it.If you catch it, you will definitely die. ”Steward Xu hurriedly spoke."
Let's go, then."
As he spoke, Bai Ziyue jumped lightly, and he had already crossed the distance of four or five meters and jumped onto the small boat.The crew members glanced at each other, greeted Steward Xu, and hurriedly began to row the oars.In an instant, the boat was like a sharp sword, passing quickly across the river.Half an hour later, the boat appeared on the river.In the distance, you can also see the lively scene of people coming and going on the Qinghe wharf.On the river, from time to time, there are more large and small boats passing through it."
Bai Shaoxia, on the river surface of Qinghe Town, in addition to the water bandits, it is the people of the Water Affairs Hall of your Lieyang Gang, which is the most difficult.Once we do, we have to be cut down and handed over a lot of silver taels to pass.Although it is still better than encountering water bandits, we are already making hard-earned money, and after being cut, we can earn even less.Now that Bai Shaoxia has come forward, we can finally gain more. ”On the small boat, the leader said with emotion."
What about the government?
I remember that the government also has official ships that will patrol this river.When I meet them, my face is not enough, what should I do, what will happen. ”Bai Ziyue said calmly.This trip, he also has to take a risk.Once he is bumped into by the people of the government, his life will not be easy.As for the other party's complaints, Bai Ziyue didn't take it too seriously.If the other party can rely on the ship to eat, is it not the good person that the other party says?
Bai Ziyue has been a servant in the Pearl Restaurant for a period of time, and has heard a lot of people talk about it, there are many bandits on this river, and some merchant ships are missing and robbed, is it really all done by those famous and famous water bandits?
Not necessarily.It is not uncommon for merchant ships to eat black and kill each other.It can be said that those who walk on the river all the year round are not bandits, but they are also bandits, and there is no innocent one.This boatman, who calls himself Chang Lao Er, and several of his subordinates, claim to be honest, but Bai Ziyue can only see one or two from the scars of different shades on their bodies."
Official?
The officials usually only patrol the surroundings at ten o'clock in the morning, but now it is already the afternoon hour, and there is absolutely no patrol boat belonging to the government on the entire river. ”Chang Lao Er said confidently.Nodding silently, Bai Ziyue didn't say much.Along the way, they did not see a single official ship walking on the river.From time to time, there will be disciples of the Lieyang Gang Water Affairs Hall to conduct patrols on the river.Because Bai Ziyue and the others were on a small boat, even if the disciples of the Internal Affairs Hall found out, they didn't pay much attention to it.After another half an hour passed, and the group finally carried the boat into a place full of reeds, enough to hide three or five small and medium-sized merchant ships without being discovered.Under the control of those who supported the boat, the boat was scurrying among the reeds, flexible and changeable, and it took a while for Bai Ziyue to feel that his eyes suddenly opened up.Immediately afterward, he saw a medium-sized merchant ship that could carry dozens of tons of heavy loads, on the edge of the shore.The moment Bai Ziyue and the others appeared, a greeting came over one after another."
Chang, I'm back.""
Chang Er, how is it, can you pass?""
Don't worry, this time, I have invited a great god, who will definitely allow us to pass the inspection smoothly and deliver the goods."
Chang Lao Er responded quickly, beckoning his men to prop the boat to the edge of the merchant ship.Someone dropped the rope, and then a few people in the boat climbed up nimbly.Rejecting the pull of others, Bai Ziyue jumped on the bow of the ship, and then jumped on the big ship with a slight touch on the merchant ship.Glancing at the merchant ship, there were a total of thirty people on the ship, the faces of these people were not uncomfortable with the dark color after being exposed to the sun, some were wearing strong suits, some were open-chested and barebacked, but it was all surprising that they had some scars on their bodies, both old and new, and they looked extremely sophisticated.At this time, most of them were also looking at Bai Ziyue quietly, with doubt, hope, and indifference in their eyes.Bai Ziyue was also looking at these people, just a glance, his heart was a gift.These people don't look like serious boatmen, but more like water bandits.Real water bandits!
Looking at the hull again, layers of cotton were placed on the outermost layer.However, from his point of view, he could still see that under the cotton, there were boxes made of large wooden boards.Obviously, what they were going to transport this time was actually the contents of the wooden box.And most importantly, what is contained in the wooden box cannot be private salt.Because the weight of private salt is not what these lightweight planks can bear."
Am I on a thief ship?"
Bai Ziyue couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
