When the motorcade passed the end of the road, the man on the right side of the car stared blankly at the empty bluestone road ahead, his mind going blank. Suddenly, a strange voice came to my ears: "May Mr. Che go with the motorcade."
Mr. Che You turned around and saw a young man whom he did not recognize. The young man introduced himself: "A certain Guo family, the father of the clan is now the son."
Mr. Cheyou looked carefully and could vaguely make out Mr. Guo's shadow. He calmed down and said, "Why?"
Guo Zhongjin responded, "I don't know." and turned to the workshop. Mr. Che You was stunned. He felt that it was inconvenient to chase Guo Zhongjin, so he could only choose to believe what Guo Zhongjin said and sneak away in the convoy.
Jinkou was unsealed, the cargo loading was completed, Mr. Li paid 20 yuan as agreed, and the strong group left. Mr. Li stood at the bow of the boat, waiting for Mr. Che You and other mysterious visitors. After a while, a young man came over, bowed and saluted on the shore, and said: "Mr. Che is offering this to Mr. Li. If it is inconvenient, I hope Mr. Li will go first."
Mr. Li was stunned when he heard this. He came ashore and stared at Guo Zhongjin and said, "Who are you? How can you recognize Mr. Che?"
Guo Zhongjin said: "The father of the clan works for the son, so he knows him. The former helper is the generation of the father of the clan."
Mr. Li said: "The counter asked, Naiha?"
Guo Zhongjin said: "Mr. Che will explain it himself."
Mr. Li looked at the empty dock and could only respond: "I'm willing to get the pledge as proof."
Guo Zhongjin felt a little surprised and said: "Mr. Che has nothing to spare."
Mr. Li said: "You can also get your son's things."
Guo Zhongjin touched his body and found a bamboo knot, writing "Qifeng Xiyi", which he thought was a bamboo talisman. Now that the post station has been destroyed by the Qin army, a new knot will naturally be made when the post is reopened. This festival talisman should be useless, so he handed the piece of bamboo to Mr. Li and said: "What I got from the old post, It’s worthy of quality.”
Mr. Li looked at the words on the knot and thought it could be used as proof of identity, so he put it in his arms and handed it over to get on board. Guo Zhongjin also turned and left.
The city ban bell finally rang, and it seemed to be a little later than usual. Mr. Li finally gave up. There were many boats in Tsugami, and the sailors on the shore untied the cables one by one. The boatman who untied the cables pushed the boat open with a pole and slid the boat out of the waterway. Mr. Li's boat was in the middle. It didn't take long for the cable to be untied. The boatman slid the boat into the main channel, corrected its course, and headed straight upstream. Because the ship had the Qin people's seal on it, the Qin army did not intercept it at the pass along the way, and sailed smoothly out of Qifeng territory. Mr. Li, who had been sitting in the bow of the boat, let out a sigh of relief, turned around and walked into the cabin. He was suddenly stunned: there was actually a person sitting in the cabin, with gray beard and hair. Seeing Mr. Li come in, the man turned around and it turned out to be Zhang Lu.
Zhang Lu was specially invited by Mr. Che You. As soon as the boat came out of the girder, Mr. Cheyou made it to the shore. After a long time, he actually helped this stooped gentleman with all white hair and beard to get on the boat. If it hadn't been for Mr. Che You's introduction, Mr. Li would have almost regarded him as an immortal monster. But listening to the voice, it seems that he has some confidence. Although his stature is stooped, he moves quite quickly and does not need support when he climbs onto the boat along the plank. Mr. Che You said that Mr. Zhang Lu is a genius of the world. I dare not say whether Zhang Luceng is strange or not, but his appearance is quite strange.
Now suddenly seeing Zhang Lu appear in the cabin, Mr. Li hurriedly stepped forward, regardless of etiquette, and asked in a low voice: "Why did Mr. Zhang come here? Where is Mr. Che?"
Zhang Lu raised his hand to his chest and said: "Mr. Li, there is no need to be surprised. Mr. Che has been rescued by Mr. Wei and is now safe. It was inconvenient for me to get there, so I sneaked into the boat and landed outside Daliang City. I only know Mr. Che here." It’s okay for the patients you care about.”
Mr. Li said: "Mr.'s instructions should be kept in mind. May I ask where Mr. Che is? Who is the messenger? Why did you board the boat?"
Zhang Lu said: "Mr. Che has followed Mr. Wei to surrender to the Wei army. It is expected that there will be no harm. After unsealing the order, the Wei will be rescued by Mr. Wei's men. Nothing will happen..."
Before Zhang Lu could finish his words, Mr. Li shouted in surprise: "Unlocking the order, Lieutenant?!" Zhang Lu immediately stopped him with his hands. Mr. Li quickly covered his mouth with a look of disbelief.
Zhang Lu looked at Mr. Li quietly, waited for him to calm down, and said slowly: "With the virtue of Mr. Li, I still don't know what is good in this matter. The power of God is unbearable, and it is inevitable that the family will be destroyed unintentionally."
Mr. Li's expression changed again, and he couldn't reply for a long time. He finally recovered and said, "Sir, your advice is correct."
Zhang Lu still looked at him quietly and said calmly: "Sir, please forget what I said before. You are a reporter, and I am a seriously ill person who was asked by a close friend to seek medical treatment in Daliang. No one else knows, even my surname. …”
Mr. Li's expression changed again, but this time he quickly regained his composure. He cupped his hands and said, "It's just as Mr. Li said." The two of them looked at each other in silence for a long time. Mr. Li said, "Mr. is seriously ill and cannot bear to sit for long periods of time. Please stay in bed." . I will patrol outside the cabin and look for a place to go ashore."
Zhang Lu said: "Sir, please do it yourself. Don't think of me."
Mr. Li walked out of the cabin and let the cold wind blow on his face, gradually clearing his chaotic mind. The only thing he knows clearly now is what Zhang Lu reminded him: the people in the cabin were seriously ill people who were entrusted by close friends to seek medical treatment in Daliang, and no one else knew about it. I don't know anything about him, not even his name, not even Mr. Che. But the boatman on the boat was from Daliangpu. When Mr. Zhang Lu got on the boat, they all watched him and watched him when he got off the boat. How could he hide this?
"Oh! Let's just wait and see." Mr. Li thought dejectedly. He took out the bamboo stick with "Kaifeng West Station" written on it from his arms and stared at it blankly. I still want to leave evidence everywhere, but if I reveal the matter, I'm afraid there will be no place to die. He wanted to throw the bamboo joints into the river, but he was afraid that the bamboo joints were light and would stand out when floating on the water. If someone picked them up, it would be even worse. Better take it home and burn it.
Who is Mr. Che? All I know is that he was introduced by Hou Ying and brought here by Chen Si. The shopkeeper was very enthusiastic about him. Although Mr. Che is wearing a long gown, he is full of morale. Could it be that he is also a young man who changes his clothes? And this Mr. Zhang Lu, a genius of the world? His appearance is not impressive, his words are not amazing, what's so surprising about him? Why is such a genius in this world so miserable? He must be a scholar after all, but with his short brown hair and even the long gown he put on later, he is considered a genius?
Why is there still something about unsealing orders and captaincy? He is a big shot, and his hands are hot. If the people of Qin find out about this, they will lose their heads immediately! Yes, I must stick to this matter. No, I don’t know. But it would be beautiful if I could also participate in it. How could I bring glory to the village? Why didn’t Mr. Che call me? Anyway, if the sky fell, there would be someone tall to hold it up... No, a stone fell on my head. , settle the account immediately, let’s forget it.
And Mr. Wei...can we meet him?
While I was thinking wildly, Daliang City was already in sight. Mr. Li quickly collected his thoughts and directed the boat to stop in a quiet place. Go into the cabin yourself and ask Mr. Zhang Lu to disembark.
Zhang Lu got off the boat along the slightly sloping footboard and quickly disappeared into the vast night. The boat did not row back to the main channel, but anchored at this branch of the river, waiting for Daliang to open the water gate after dawn.
Naturally, interaction with the city guards is indispensable. As a salesman of one of the few grain stores in the city, Mr. Li is very familiar with sergeants and officials at all levels. This is his business scope.
