A knife in love

Chapter 3429

It was almost evening at this time, and the surroundings became much darker.Ye Fengchun knew that standing on the hill overlooking the big river didn't seem far away, but to get to the shore, he had to walk at least ten miles.If we take these exhausted Fusang people forward, even if we walk for a whole night, we will not be able to reach the big river.In desperation, he had no choice but to order the folks in Songhe Tower to take the people of Fusang into a forest by the roadside to rest, planning to head towards the river tomorrow after dawn.

Nothing to say all night.In the early morning of the next day, everyone ate dry food, and then they walked out of the woods and walked down the slope along the rugged mountain road.Sure enough, as Ye Fengchun expected, standing on the top of the slope overlooking the river, the distance seems not far away, but the mountain road is winding and difficult, and it took three and a half hours for everyone to reach the bottom of the slope. It's three quarters.Ye Fengchun felt a little anxious, and told the folks in Songhe Tower not to bury the pot for cooking, and it would not be too late to bury the pot for cooking when they reached the bank of the big river.

Everyone left the foot of the mountain and walked along the road.Although this section of the road is relatively flat, everyone has been walking for three or four hours, and they are exhausted at this time, staggering on their feet, and walking more and more slowly. When they reach the bank of the big river, it is already evening.Ye Fengchun ordered several assistants to lead twenty or thirty Fusang women to build a stove with stones and bury pots for cooking, and he personally led dozens of Songhe Tower assistants to cut down trees and build rafts.These guys are all powerful people, and there is a large forest not far from the river bank, so it only took more than an hour, the guys have already cut down [-] big trees, and tied up eight with trunks and branches. All the rafts are placed on the shore.

After dark, everyone sat around the fire and had dinner, and then they each looked for a clean place to rest on the shore.As in the past, Ye Fengchun personally found a secluded place for Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan to rest, and accompanied them with a few gossips, then left in a hurry under the pretext of taking someone to inspect the surroundings.After Ye Fengchun left, Li Qiufeng chatted with Murong Danyan for a few words, and then fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, when the two woke up, it was still dark, and most of the people in Fusang were still asleep.Ye Fengchun had already prepared steamed buns and jerky for the two of them, and boiled hot water, waiting beside them.Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan thanked Ye Fengchun repeatedly, and after eating the breakfast Ye Fengchun had prepared for them, they packed up their swords and hidden weapons and were ready to go.Ye Fengchun handed Li Qiufeng another bundle, saying that there were several packs of dried meat and fifty silver coins in it for emergencies.Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were very grateful to see Ye Fengchun's thoughtfulness.

Ye Fengchun saw that Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan had already packed up, so he called two assistants and ordered them to send Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan across the river.The two men agreed repeatedly, and accompanied Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan to the river.A raft had already been prepared in the river, and the two fellows asked Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan to board the raft, and then drove their mounts onto the raft, and then they each carried a wooden stick onto the raft.Ye Fengchun stood on the shore, cupped his hands towards Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan and said, "I will stay here and wait for the safe return of Uncle Li and Miss Mu."

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan bowed their hands to Ye Fengchun in return, and the two men supported the bank with wooden sticks and pushed hard, the raft slowly left the river bank and moved straight to the middle of the river.The two men kept their hands on, and every time they pushed hard with wooden sticks on the bottom of the river, the raft would rush forward a few feet.

Li Qiufeng saw that the two men used wooden sticks to support the raft, which made the raft continuously move towards the middle of the big river. Although it crossed the big river, the raft was very stable. The boat kung fu is really good, and Li admires it very much."

The two guys were very happy to hear Li Qiufeng praise him.While propping the raft, a man said with a smile on his face, "Uncle Li doesn't know something. We are brothers. We were originally fishermen in Taizhou. Our family offended a local family named Yao. Master Yao framed the crime. As a result, the villain's father died of a sudden illness in the prison. Master Yao was unwilling to give up, and he wanted to kill all the villain brothers. Unwilling to lose their lives in vain, the villain brothers climbed the wall and jumped into Yao Master Yao was stabbed to death at the master's house. The villain knew that he had committed a capital crime. If he stayed in Taizhou, he could only die. In desperation, he fled to Ningbo and became a boatman. The businessman brought goods to Fusang country to do business, but after arriving in Fusang country, the big businessman was tricked by the Fusang people. Not only the goods were robbed by the Fusang people, but he was also hacked to death by the Fusang people.

"Those Fusang people are extremely vicious. After killing the big businessman, they will also kill the boat boss and the boatman. Seeing that the situation is not good, the villain brothers ran away before the Fusang people did anything. Although the Fusang people are fierce, they are not villains. The brothers ran desperately, but they did not catch up in the end. It was just that the villain brothers ran for their lives in embarrassment, penniless, and afraid that the Fusang people would pursue them, so they could only wander around in the mountains and fields, and lost their way. He was about to die of cold and starvation, and happened to meet the big shopkeeper who led someone passing by and saved the life of the villain brother. The old man knew that the villain brother was Han Chinese, and he couldn't bear to be reduced to such a situation. Next, let the villain brothers be hired as clerks in Songhe Tower. Thanks to the care of the big shopkeeper these years, the villain brothers not only saved their lives, but also had no worries about food and clothing. They also married wives and had children. They are grateful to the big shopkeeper. Brother Ren was born as a fisherman and knows how to drive a boat, so he asked Brother Xiaoren to row a raft to take Uncle Li and Miss Mu across the river."

When Li Qiufeng saw the guy talking, his face was full of gratitude, and he thought to himself that Ye Fengchun was really amazing!He was ordered by Yun Feiyang to come to Fusang country alone to inquire about news. This errand can be said to be extremely dangerous.But after Ye Fengchun arrived in Fusang country, not only did he not get into trouble, but he showed his strengths and made a great career. Not only did he become a big shopkeeper, he also subdued many capable men.These two guys were originally desperadoes, but Ye Fengchun used both soft and hard methods and became his loyal subordinates. Few people in the world can match this kind of employing methods.

This big river is about thirty feet wide. Although the water surface is wide, the river is not rushing. In addition, the two men's skills in driving the boat are really good, so the raft does not bump when walking in the water.Standing on the raft, Li Qiufeng saw the staff insert the wooden stick into the river, and entered the water at an angle of about ten feet. From this point of view, the river was about seven or eight feet deep, and the current was not too fast. Even without a boat, he could swim across the big river But it is not difficult.It's just that it's winter, if you recklessly enter the water, you will be frozen to death.The sudden appearance of this big river is really strange.
