On March 20th, the caravan entered Yuezhou. After today's training, Yue Hanzhi was able to walk normally. However, the carriage was still sitting in the same position as before, and the boy in short shirt had no choice but to follow.
Because they had to cross the river, the caravan reserved the horses at the riverside station. In addition to the horses originally prepared for the trip, there were also the horses of the bandits after the Yangfeng Valley disaster. This really allowed the caravan to save a lot of expenses. After everyone passed by the inn, they put all the goods on the boat and prepared to cross the river. This way, they would not have to go around the river, and they could buy new horses on the other side of the river and continue on their way.
Rather than crossing a river, it is better to visit a lake. This is the confluence of a lake and a river. The fastest way to enter Yuezhou is to board a boat from here and cross the entire lake directly to the boundary of Yuezhou. The boats hired by the caravan drove away from the shore, and gradually the station behind them became farther and farther away. Everyone was about to enter the center of the river and enter the lake here. The boy in a short shirt turned his head from looking at the riverside station behind to look ahead, only to see the shore in front of him. Although there is still a long way to go, you can already see a tall building standing at Fangshanshui.
It is a three-story building. It is right on the edge of the lake. Everyone can see this tall building before reaching the center of the lake. They can see the golden glazed tiles shining brightly under the sunlight, and the purple-red columns. The entire high-rise building is propped up, and the atmosphere is magnificent. In front of the building, the entire lake seems to be overlooked by it, showing a sense of heroism and domineering.
"That is the Fengxue Grand View Tower. It is now the leader of martial arts circles. Its owner Liu Mei even won one of the four swords in the world, Xianhanmei, in last year's Sword Making Peak." The woman in blue looked at her side with some expressions. A dull boy in a short shirt.
"Is that where the world is..." Lin Manliu sighed.
"The so-called No. 1 in the world is just because their sect contributed the most to the current Yanyang Dynasty when the world was first established. Therefore, they are the leader in the control of the south, and they have one of the most rumored four swords in the world today. But this Liu Mei is indeed a first-rate master, but she cannot be considered the best in the world." Yue Hanzhi shook his head.
"That's it. No wonder Master said that they all think they are the best in the world." The boy in short shirt immediately nodded in affirmation.
The beautiful scenery on the lake seems to have been suppressed because of this snow-winding grand viewing tower. Boats or pedestrians passing by the lake all marvel at the magnificence of this tall building.
After a while, the caravan ship was about to dock. What was different from usual was that in addition to the normal station attendants, there were some gray-robed men with swords on the shore. The caravan steward felt something was wrong and immediately looked at the short-shirted young man and blue man behind him. The woman in clothes said: "In the past, after we crossed the river and the lake, we only needed to pay the money to the station servants to buy new horses. Today, some strange sword-wielding men appeared on the shore. We may need to bother for six hours. Brother and this heroine”.
"These are the disciples of the Fengxue Grand View Tower. There may be trouble later, so be prepared at any time." The woman in blue raised her hand and pressed her hat and looked at the boy in the short shirt.
The boy in a short shirt nodded, then took off the black cloth strip behind him and held it in his hand.
"I'm asking you to prepare, but I don't mean to be ready to fight at any time... This is still someone else's territory. Do you think of yourself as some kind of grand master who aspires to be the top of the martial arts world? Hurry up and put your black cloth on your back." Some A scolding voice came from under the curtain, and Yue Hanzhi was speechless watching Lin Manliu's operation.
"Okay..." Lin Manliu responded with a hint of grievance.
The caravan ship docked at the shore, and the steward went to pay the station clerk for the ferry and began to inquire about purchasing horses. The caravan men unloaded the goods on the ship on the shore and waited for reloading. At this time The men in gray robes came over with swords in their hands.
A tall and thin man at the head said loudly: "We should escort all the caravans passing through my Fengxue Grand View Tower safely away from Yuezhou, and let everyone spend their time here safely, just to show our friendship as landlords. ".
When the caravan steward heard the noise here, he hurried over and replied: "Thank you so much, sir. We will definitely leave as soon as we finish purchasing the horses."
It didn’t take long for new carriages and cargo vehicles to be purchased. The caravan men were loading fixed goods as quickly as possible. Those men in gray robes said that there would be two people leaving Yuezhou with everyone, including that one. Tall, thin man. While waiting, the tall and thin man saw Lin Manliu and Yue Hanzhi. Seeing that both of them were holding swords, he began to look at them carefully. However, I soon noticed that the woman in blue seemed to have difficulty moving. Although the boy in a short shirt next to her looked well-proportioned and strong, he was obviously just a man with muddy legs trained by working in the fields. The corners of the tall and thin man's mouth I couldn't help but evoke an arc, not knowing what I was thinking.
Two disciples from Fengxue Grand View Tower followed the caravan through the streets, and only a mile after walking out of the east city gate, the tall and thin man escorting in front and the fat man in gray robe beside him stopped their horses and stopped moving forward. Okay, the two men in gray robes suddenly dismounted and looked at the caravan steward on the carriage at the front.
"Steward, you need to be escorted by us when you leave the city immediately. We are here to take care of everyone's safe trip to Yuezhou. Do we need to show some concern for our Fengxue Grand View Tower?" The tall and thin man looked at it with a sneer. To the steward.
The caravan manager didn't expect that this man was waiting for them here to ask for money. It was really easy to guard against bandits in the mountains and robbers, but it was hard to stop them in the market with a smiling tiger. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at the boy in a short shirt and the woman in blue.
"It turns out that Fengxue Grand View Tower, the leader of the Jianghu, actually did such a despicable act. It really opened our eyes. He was said to be an escort, but he actually wanted to ask for money from the people passing by." Yue Hanzhi was the first to speak out, holding the thin waistband with his right hand. Jian jumped off the edge of the carriage at the rear, walked straight through the carriage in front and walked to the two Fengxue Grand View Tower disciples.
Then the boy in the short shirt had already held the Spring Window Butterfly in his hand and walked to the side of Yue Hanzhi. Right in front of him were two disciples of the Fengxue Grand View Tower. Their gray robes held swords in their sleeves, making a sound in the wind. Shang On this side of the team were Yue Hanzhi, who was holding the hilt of his sword and looking straight ahead, and Lin Manliu, who had already raised his sword in front of him.
"He's just a sick man with muddy legs who came out of nowhere and dared to challenge our Fengxue Grand View Tower," the fat man in gray robe said sternly.
"If you are fat, don't imitate other people to hold swords and look at people and things. They are almost rounder than the pillars of your house. Holding them in your arms is more like inserting a ball into the pillars of your house." The woman in blue said contemptuously. At the end I seemed to laugh out loud.
The young man in a short shirt on the side looked at this description and couldn't hold it back anymore, covering his mouth and laughing.
"Do you really think that I, the Fengxue Grand View Tower, can't handle you?" The tall and thin man reacted at this moment. After speaking, he drew his sword out of its scabbard and came straight towards Yue Hanzhi. The fat man also drew his sword and followed.
Yue Hanzhi immediately unsheathed his sword and prepared to face the enemy. At this time, Lin Manliu also moved. He ran to the left and already had Shan Yexing in his left hand. At the same time, everyone in the caravan unconsciously approached the edge of their carriage and prepared to draw their knives. They did not notice that their actions were so similar and skillful.
