3295. Chapter 3295 Pressing every step of the way [02]
Shen Mingzhu nodded, "It's just a play. You have to find out the way to the capital. You also need to find out if there are people who understand the local customs and dialects. They will act as translators for us. You also need to find out some dignitaries and aristocratic families in the Yue Kingdom.
Let’s strive to master them all.”
Even though it's just acting, some of it is useful.
Qu Shui and others immediately understood, "Let's make the enemy think that we don't understand anything yet, so that they will relax their vigilance."
Shen Mingzhu nodded, "That's almost it."
Everyone prepared separately for another two days.
It rained, and the sultry weather became clearer, making people feel less hot and humid. Shen Mingzhu asked people to prepare for their departure.
Han Yang had already disguised himself and pretended to be an ordinary porter, together with a few people from the market, and there was no sign of any flaws.
With the good medicine brought by Shen Mingzhu, Han Yang's injury healed quickly. Except for his internal strength being slightly damaged, there was nothing serious.
Because it had rained and the road was a little muddy, Shen Mingzhu asked someone to buy two more cars, and then everyone got on the road.
The air is fresh after the rain, the grass is lush in the field, and the wild flowers are in bloom. At a glance, it looks like a beautiful picture.
Because there is a wharf outside the town, there are many people on the road, including a juggling troupe, father and daughter singing, and vegetable farmers and salesmen who go to the city to sell vegetables.
The mountain roads in the mountainous area are not easy to walk, so if there is a boat, everyone will take it, and few will take a horse-drawn carriage.
Shen Mingzhu's group of four carriages were very eye-catching on the road.
The boatman saw them passing by the pier and shouted: "Where are you going? Are you going by boat? The price is cheap and food is included. It's very fast. It's only a day's journey to the city, and it's also good."
It saves money on city tax."
The city he mentioned refers to Nagisa below, located on the upper reaches of the Nagisa River.
Zhang Huai said: "Thank you very much. We don't want to take a boat. We have our own carriage."
After saying that, he asked the driver to drive the car and continue walking.
At this time, two horses ran over from a distance, because outside the town there were not bluestone roads, but loess roads. If it rained heavily, it would be fine, but if it rained continuously, some soft parts of the road would be soaked and become very muddy.
So those two horses can't run fast either.
But it is strange that he is still driving his horse in such a miserable situation.
Zhang Huai asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the side of the road to avoid hitting him when the other party rushed over.
The two horses were running very slowly and soon arrived. They were a man and a woman. Their clothes looked ordinary but they were not the clothes of ordinary people.
A man holds a child in his arms.
When they got closer, the child in the man's arms suddenly screamed, and then everyone watched as he fell off the horse and fell into the mud.
The child happened to fall in front of Shen Mingzhu's carriage. The driver quickly reined in the horse, jumped out of the car and held the horse, for fear that it would startle the horse and step on the child.
Shen Mingzhu sat in the car, thinking about things, and didn't care about what was happening outside.
Zhang Huai was sitting next to the coachman, so he could see clearly. He couldn't move for a while, so he asked the coachman to stop the car.
The man on the horse glanced at them quickly, a trace of panic flashed on his face, and he quickly dismounted and shouted: "What's going on? You didn't fall, did you?"
He leaned over to hug the child.
The child looked to be only six or seven years old, very beautiful, but his whole body was twitching, his face was pale, and his lips were very red.
