A few days later, on the Caoguo River.

The Qin fleet slowly moved forward.

In the distant river, a French net rises quietly.

Dozens of monks appeared on the river.

"Stop whoever comes!" A monk in doctor's robes, holding a hammer-like magic weapon, stepped forward and said: "According to the order of Qi Gong, all ships heading to the 'bandit area' must be inspected by us.

!”

"Bold!" Baili Xi stood on the bow deck, pulled out the magic sword he wore on his waist, and said with all his armor, "I am a senior official of the Qin State, and I am on an envoy to the Chu State on the order of Duke Qin!"

As he spoke, the battleships behind him raised black battle flags.

Qin monks and warriors wearing black armor came out of the warehouse one after another.

Everyone looked at the doctor angrily.

"You must get out of the way of the river quickly!" Baili Xi said loudly, "Otherwise, it will be an insult to Duke Qin!"

"Qin Gong is angry, can you bear it?"

When the doctor saw this, he hesitated.

Qin Gong?

Although the countries in the Central Plains generally look down on Qin.

The Qin people in Xicui lived together with the Lich clan and even interacted with the Asuras.

In the eyes of the immortal gods, the bloodline has long been impure!

What's more, Qin was not granted the title by King Wu, but by the order of Duke Zhou.

It’s an anomaly in itself!

However……

Like Chu, Qin people have very hard fists!

The most important thing is that Qin and Jin are now allies.

Offending Qin is equivalent to offending Jin!

In addition, people in Qin kept saying that they wanted to send envoys to Chu.

It would be bad if the King of Chu was offended!

The contemporary King of Chu has a bad temper!

And he is old!

The old King of Chu, in order to maintain his status, will fight back hard against anyone who dares to provoke him!

The people around King Chu will also resolutely safeguard the authority of King Chu!

Won't take a step back!

The doctor immediately took a step back, cupped his hands and said, "Forgive me, envoy Qin, but we are acting on the orders of Duke Qi..."

"I also ask the envoy to be calm and stay here for a few days until we ask Duke Qi for instructions..."

"What nonsense!" Baili Xi said with his sword: "If you want to fight, then fight!"

"We, the people of Qin, are never afraid of war!"

Next to Baili Xi, Zhao Dun said in time: "Zhao Dun of Jin State is here!"

"You want to start a war with our Jin allies?"

"It should be noted that a war against Qin is a war against Jin!"

Now, they no longer dare to stop him.

We can only get out of the way of the river obediently and let the Qin fleet pass safely.

There's no way, I can't afford to offend him at all!

The fleet continued to move forward, sailing out of the Cao River, heading east from Taoqiu, breaking through several water blockades of the Qi State, and heading straight to the Lu State.

No one dares to stop it!

Soon, they passed the entire blockade and reached the border between Xue and Lu.

Ahead is sandy water.

"How far is it?" Zhao Dun asked anxiously on the deck.

"Almost!" A compass in Baili Xi's hand levitated.

The pointer points forward.

This is a Noble Phantasm that has been refined before departure.

You can point to any clear place in the world, so you don't have to worry about getting lost.

While he was talking, the warship beneath his feet suddenly shook violently.

"What happened?" The two of them looked outside at the same time.

All he saw was that the huge hull of the giant ship he was riding on had crossed a very obvious boundary.

Ahead, the river is gurgling and crystal clear.

Countless swimming fish swarmed among the aquatic plants.

One after another, koi carps are mixed together.

White finless porpoises and pink finless porpoises play in the river bed.

Behind them, the river was turbid and filled with mud and sand.

Even the riverbanks on both sides have different scenery.

The riverbank on the Xueguo side was bare and lifeless.

On the opposite side, on the river embankment, willow trees hang over the water.

The grass grows, warblers fly, and the vegetation is lush.

In the sky, countless birds formed a team and flew south.

Birds and beasts fly south...

In a season like this?

Baili Xi swallowed his saliva, he didn't know the basics, he only knew that his grandson was over there.

But he also understands that it can attract birds and beasts from all directions, violating their nature and flying south in summer.

There can only be one reason: sages and sages are virtuous, benefiting birds and animals, and benefiting grass and trees.

Zhao Dun took a deep breath and couldn't help but think in his heart: "I wonder if Shuoer has earned a place in front of the master?"

The fleet passed through this section of the river and turned into a rapid.

There are traces of the road ahead.

On the road, Zhao Dun and Baili Xi both saw groups of people in twos and threes, moving forward along this road.

They are all mortal.

He was in ragged clothes and skinny as a stick. Looking from a distance, he looked as if he might fall to the ground at any time.

But they persisted and moved forward resolutely.

"Are these the 'bandits' and unruly people that the people of Qi call them?" Baili asked sarcastically.

"Yes!" Zhao Dun nodded. As a senior official of the Jin Dynasty, Zhao Dun knew very well and had been paying attention to things in the East.

Because he knows who is the Lu State in the East?

Therefore, Zhao Dun understood that Qi Gong not only blocked water transportation to Lu State.

Also on land, a blockade was implemented.

Major roads are closed!

Therefore, if you want to go to the Lu Kingdom, mortals now have only one way - to venture at night and travel through the complex dense forests and deep mountains between the Xue, Song, Cao, Lu and other countries.

Sneak through the small road and trek here.

It is said that people from Xue, Song, Cao, Ju, Ji, and even Qi, Wei, Zheng, and Guo all took these trails constantly, venturing through mountains and dangerous roads, crossing swamps and deep pools, to reach 'Liujun'.

Not just mortals.

The water tribe and the demon tribe are also moving southward.

One after another, one after another, one after another will never turn back!

Even though the coalition forces have already declared that the "complicit bandits and thieves" were not guilty of killing.

They even sent monks and warriors to hunt down the fugitives.
