"Wait!"
Fei Lian said loudly and threw the middle-aged man towards the woman.
The two immediately rolled into a ball.
Seeing the two people standing up immediately and taking a defensive posture, Fei Lian immediately stopped them and frowned.
"Who are you? Ordinary fishermen don't have such skills~~~!"
The middle-aged man sneered and retorted, "Who are you, an ordinary passerby, to have such great strength?"
The two groups just confronted each other. Suddenly, the child on the bed rubbed his eyes and sat up.
"Mom? What's wrong?"
The woman's face darkened, she sat on the bed and gently rubbed the child's head. .
"Be good, it's okay!!!"
Her eyes were full of sadness. Although the couple had extraordinary martial arts skills, they were suppressed by the burly man in just a dozen moves.
It was just a test, and the burly man didn't expect to take advantage of the surprise. If he really risked his life, he was afraid that today next year would be the death anniversary of the family of three.
Thinking of this, the woman's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and her whole body was shaking.
When the middle-aged man saw his wife and daughter like this, he couldn't help feeling sad and shouted angrily at Fei Lian.
"Who are you? Have we sinned? Can we let my wife and daughter go?"
At this moment, Fei Lian took stock of this person. He hadn't seen it clearly when he was outside, but he could only see a middle-aged man with gray hair on his temples, short hair, and tattoos all over his arms.
Fei Lian was stunned and asked the middle-aged man in disbelief, "You, are you descendants of the Yue Kingdom?"
The middle-aged man smiled miserably, "Yes, few people say that we are descendants of the Yue Kingdom. Generally, others call us the remnants of the Yue Kingdom."
Fei Lian let go of his hand on Su Tiedao, shook his head and smiled awkwardly.
"Actually, we are not enemies."
"You broke into my house in the middle of the night and wanted to kill our family. Are you not an enemy?"
Fei Lian immediately waved his hands and turned his head to ask Zhang Shao to explain.
Zhang Shao was in a state of confusion. He knew that Fei Lian was very good at martial arts, but he had never seen him before.
Now I finally have my eyes opened.
He asked tentatively, "Do you really want to say it?"
Fei Lian nodded silently and said, "Our Yuntong County does not have much hatred towards the Yue people, and there are also nobles from the Yue Kingdom holding important positions in our Yuntong territory."
Zhang Shao nodded and immediately told the whole story. He understood that as long as something was wrong, Fei Lian would immediately slaughter the entire fishing village, so there was no risk of leaking the secret.
After a long time, the middle-aged man and the woman were sitting on the futon. There were several broken pottery bowls on the table, pouring water.
"It turns out you are the envoys of Xia Kingdom!"
The middle-aged man rubbed his chin, obviously not expecting it at all.
"Yes, we are in a very difficult situation now, and we hope to buy all the fishing boats from your fishing village."
The middle-aged man sneered, "So what if I bought a fishing boat? The Luosha River does not lead to the north."
After thinking over and over again, Fei Lian tentatively said, "My master is Lord Wu An. He asked me to go to Kuaiji County when I am in trouble or when I am in a deadlock."
The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly and he fell into deep thought.
There was no such thing as Kuaiji County in the past. When the Yue Kingdom was there, it was just called Kuaiji County. Now the Xingguo Kingdom has begun to reform and strengthen itself. Unfortunately, the reform is changed day by day, and it is nothing more than a mere appearance.
"Why did you just say that you have an old relationship with us Yue people?"
Fei Lian smiled and said, "Cao Wushuang is famous all over the world. Mr. Cao is your master, so your Majesty treats the Yue people with special care."
"Take Haichao County as an example. There are several fishing villages composed of Yue people under its jurisdiction. According to local records, they should have escaped from the sea when the Yue Kingdom was destroyed."
The middle-aged man was stunned, and his face instantly showed a look of ecstasy.
"Female, the young master is in Yuntong?"
Fei Lian's face was filled with questions: "
Young lady? "
The middle-aged man nodded, "Everyone knows Mr. Cao's name, but few people know that Mr. Cao is the princess of our country."
Fei Lian nodded, "We have known this for a long time, so we have no hostility towards the Yue people."
The middle-aged man looked at Fei Lian and thought, "If you can leave, can you take us with you?"
Fei Lian was shocked, "This, isn't this appropriate? After all, I am only following the order of your Majesty. We don't know how your Majesty arranged our retreat."
"Besides, you have lived by the Rakshasa River for a long time, so you have enough food and clothing to worry about, so why bother to take a trip to this muddy water?"
The middle-aged man's rough hands clenched tightly, and his eyes showed a bone-chilling chill.
"The destruction of our country has become a fact and cannot be changed. However, people like Xingguo regard us as enemies. They tax others five levels, but we tax seven levels."
"To be honest, we can no longer afford to pay this year's tax. Although we make a living by fishing, now the fishermen can't eat fish and have no food to eat all day long. We might as well take advantage of this opportunity. , go far away."
The two of them wanted to refuse, but the middle-aged man seemed to be uneasy and immediately explained to them.
The Luosha River is very fast and has undercurrents. To be honest, you northern landlubbers are probably not very good at driving fishing boats in the river.
The two of them were shocked and almost forgot about this. Although the 200 or so Xuanjia Army had received special training, not many of them knew how to swim, and many of them were dog-pawing kings.
It's no problem to let them drive. The hundred commanders in the Xuanjia Army all have their own identity as charioteers.
But driving a boat is not possible. If you don't have strong professional knowledge, you can't even think about it.
In the end, Zhang Shao had no choice but to agree to them and began to discuss the details.
Fortunately, the habits of the Yue people are far different from those of the Central Plains people. Coupled with the external environment, almost three hundred people did not have an opinion, and they were very united.
There were 500 people in total, and the two sides began to discuss how to get there.
Some people have also raised questions. Fei Lian is just a word. As long as the king says it to himself, he has not missed it so far.
In fact, he didn't know what method the king used to transport everyone back safely.
One group is people who are being surrounded by two countries, and the other group is people who are forced to live by exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes.
When they met together, a different kind of spark suddenly burst out.
There are many horses in Yuntong County, and the two hundred people are almost equipped with more than three hundred war horses. If it were not for other countries, it might be possible for one person to ride three horses.
Unfortunately, if we had to go by water, we basically couldn't take the war horses with us. After everyone discussed it, we decided to keep the most elite war horses.
Then all the horses were released, the saddles, stirrups and horseshoes were all removed and thrown into the river.
In this way, the secrets can be guaranteed not to be leaked. Only after personal experience can you know the power of stirrups and horseshoes.
It is hard to say that Yang Qian's army can surely win against all the major vassal states, but as far as cavalry is concerned, it is almost unmatched.
Someone in the fishing village knew how to be a carpenter and immediately cut off the carriage, leaving only a space for a phone and a battery.
In this way, the dozen or twenty fishing boats in the entire fishing village can accommodate so many people.
With the addition of Yue people from the fishing village, the whole team moved faster.
When there was a favorable wind, a few broken sails were raised. When there was no wind, they began to wave. The soldiers also picked up the oars and started rowing.
The Luosha River is extremely long and wide. It runs in the middle of the river and almost no one pays attention to it. Only occasionally fishing boats will see it during the day.
Fortunately, most of the fishermen here are Vietnamese, and they are actually easy to identify. They all have short hair, long hair, tattoos, or broken hair on the temples.
There are not only men but also women among fishermen. Although women cannot cut their hair, they can tie it up. These women also have various totems tattooed on their arms.
In a few days, after everyone got to know each other, they also learned about this custom.
Yue people live in hot and humid lakes, swamps and rivers. In order to facilitate production and living in a humid and watery environment, they often cut the hair on their foreheads and temples short, which is called "hair cutting".
Because they work in the water, they "live among mandarins, crocodiles, and turtles." In order to avoid the harm of "dragons" in the water, they often "carve inscriptions" on their foreheads, "cross arms" on their upper limbs, or draw dragons and snakes all over their bodies, which is called "tattoos."
And the fishing boats here are very different from those in the north. The fishing boats in the north are not small, they almost look like boats.
But it's different here in the south. Almost all of them are boats, long and narrow. Of course, it's not that there are no boats, but there are relatively few.
Just when everyone thinks things are going in a good direction.
Border, inside the inn.
Dozens of soldiers rushed into the inn like wolves and tigers. After a long time, they came out and clasped their fists, saying dejectedly.
"General, there's no one!"
The general's face turned cold and he wondered, "It's impossible. There is no record of their entry. Moreover, every level has a military order from General Li Lu. How can they escape with wings?"
The deputy general suggested, "Will the envoy return to Xingguo?"
The general thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Han Jing and this person tried their best to bring the three countries together to fight against Xia, and they will never let these things happen. Naturally, there are their people at the Xingguo border gate, and they did not notify us, which proves that no trace of the envoy was found."
After thinking for a while, he could only disperse everyone to see if he could find any traces.
The south is humid and rainy. It has rained in the past few days, and even the horseshoe prints will be washed away.
At this time, a sharp-eyed soldier came back and reported, "General, although there are no horse hoof prints, there are wheel prints."
"Take me there quickly!"
Now the general looks depressed. This is General Li Lu who has given a death order. These people must be arrested. If they cannot be arrested, they will be killed without mercy.
This shows the importance attached to them.
"Get on your horse, let's chase!"
The general is not the kind of person who is ink-like. When he sees a clue, he immediately asks the army to follow his footsteps and pursue the enemy.
After several hours of pursuit, they finally arrived at a fishing village. After all the soldiers rushed in to search, strangely, no one was there.
"It's really ridiculous. There is no one in the Yue fishing village? Everyone spread out and search~~!"
