After Jia Fei and Cheng Yu landed, Cheng Yu secretly used water skills to escort the boat back to the other side of the river smoothly.
Looking back across the river, Jiangkou Town on the other side has been hidden in a thin mist.
At this moment, the two of them have completely left Qingchuan County and entered Qingyang County next door.
Looking across the river, Cheng Yu couldn't help but recall that yesterday morning, he took the time to go back to Qingluo Village to visit Mrs. Que and Heitantou's family.
Madam Que still looked rich, and when she saw Cheng Yu returning to the village, she kept chirping.
Hearing Madam Que's call, Cheng Yu realized why he didn't see Heitan Tou immediately.
It turned out that the black man was taking turns hatching eggs in the nest with his bride.
But what is different from other families is that they lay as few as three or four eggs in a clutch, and as many as six or seven eggs.
But these black charcoal-headed couple were as fierce as tigers when they stepped on the egg. Unexpectedly, after holding back their energy for a long time, they only laid a small sparrow egg.
The egg was small and soft, so the bird persuaded them to throw it away, but the couple still couldn't bear to give up.
As a result, the two birds took turns lying in the nest for a month, which was far longer than the normal time required to incubate eggs. However, the two birds continued to take turns to incubate every day and night.
That nest is still the same swallow's nest where Cheng Yu lived before.
It is also the only complete bird's nest left in the village.
Cheng Yu was chatting with Lady Que. After a while, Heitan Tou and his bride took over, and then they had time to fly to Cheng Yu in the front yard.
Cheng Yu once again entrusted Madam Que to her, and then said goodbye to the other birds and left the village.
At this time, Cheng Yu landed on Jia Fei's shoulder, summoned his soul, took out the Wu Jun Token in his arms and gently rubbed it. The Wu Jun Token flashed silently, and a few breaths later, a cold aura came from behind. "Who holds the Yin Commander card here?"
Cheng Yu and Jia Fei turned around at the same time and saw two Yin Cha holding soul locks standing behind them.
However, unlike the attire of the Yin Chai in Wujun Palace in Qingchuan County, these two Yin Chai are not wearing Yin helmets and Yin armor, but are similar to the soap uniforms worn by the fast class Yamen servants in Qingchuan County Yamen.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Yu immediately raised his hands and saluted:
"I have met the two officers. I am from Qingchuan County next door. Because I have a good relationship with Wujun of Qingchuan County, I was given this Wujun token. I just crossed the river and felt a little emotional. I didn't want to alarm the two officers." p>
The two sinister men looked Cheng Yu up and down, then looked at Jia Fei next to him, and found that the cat demon opposite could actually see his own soul body, which made him feel a little surprised.
After the two villains looked at each other, one of them said:
"This is already the border of Qingyang County, and we are on the same footing as Qingchuan County. It would be better for you to take out less of the Qingchuan Wujun token in your hands."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yu immediately put the token into his arms, and at the same time noticed that the alert expressions of the two men on the opposite side had also softened a lot.
"Sir, did you come here specifically, or were you just passing by?"
"I'm passing by and want to go to Qianjiang Fucheng."
The two Yinmen nodded when they heard the words, clasped their fists and saluted to say goodbye. A gust of Yin wind blew by and then disappeared.
After another two sticks of incense, the boat the scholars were riding on just docked. On the pier here, the steward of Qian's Mansion had already prepared his carriage and horses, and the other scholars followed Qian. The government hired a carriage early, and even Yu Wenpei and Zhuang Huaijin did the same, but they still hired the smallest carriage and followed it at the end of the motorcade.
Qian Ruyu hugged Xiao Yuexian and naturally sat in the largest car, but Qing Geer was rushed to the back and was in the same car with the steward Qian Lu.
Seeing Brother Qing riding with him in the car looking gloomy, Qian Lu was secretly happy, but his face remained calm.
By the time the bunch of scholars had packed up and were ready to hit the road, the troupe's boat was about to dock.
Everyone on the boat was busy again. Hou Siniang pulled a piece of cloth from somewhere and wrapped it around her collar to cover her mouth. She spread her hair and lowered her head to help Deng Yulou pack his luggage.
After the troupe's carriages and horses were arranged, the scholar's motorcade had slowly moved for more than a mile.
The two teams just walked in tandem and set off along the digguan road extending from the pier.
"Uu! Uu! Uncle, ahead is Qingyang Academy. I can tell you that I will stay overnight in the academy today and cannot go any further."
A horse galloped from the front, ran in front of Qian Ruyu's carriage, and immediately got down to report.
The visitor was also a servant from the mansion, responsible for arranging for Qian Ruyu to have food and accommodation along the way.
When Cheng Yu heard the words Qingyang Academy in the distance, he suddenly thought of someone, Qian Bi, the eldest son of Qian Duofu, the former owner of Qingluo Village.
Thinking back to the time when Qian Duofu died in the accident, his mother-in-law went crazy. It was only because Qian Bi, who was still in Qingyang Academy, that she came home to take charge of the overall situation and escaped overnight that the whole family was safe.
"Why can't we move on?"
Qian Ruyu asked dissatisfiedly in the car.
"Uncle, I've found a large group of refugees along the road ahead. From a small perspective, there may be some desperadoes inside. It's better to wait until dawn tomorrow and have the horses and cars pass quickly."
"That's it, fine, then let's stay one night at Qingyang Academy. Alas! I don't want so many refugees to come out of Qingyang County just across the river. Safety is the top priority."
Qian Ruyu immediately recalled that his master once ordered him to study in this academy.
But at that time, he was having a heated fight with a fan in the city, and he heard that there were a lot of rules in the academy and there were no places to hang out nearby, so he acted coquettishly and fooled him.
At this moment, Jia Fei was sitting in the caravan hired by the theater troupe, and the stage leader was lecturing him about the opera.
He had been narrating plays for Jia Fei for two days, and he found that when facing the young lady in blue, he did not dare to think of even the slightest thought other than speaking seriously about the play.
If you say that this class leader is an honest and decent person, it is pure fart. I think that Xiao Yuexian, who was not yet a prominent figure, had an unclear and absurd period with him.
Later, when he saw Hou Siniang's beauty, he also had some evil thoughts and decided to take her in, but he was far less obsessed than before.
The class leader secretly thought that maybe it was because he was old and unable to do what he wanted, so he only loved money and not sex.
They walked all the way until they arrived at Shenshi. Cheng Yu thought it was about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and the two convoys arrived at the foot of a hill. There were paddy fields in front of them, and Qingyang Academy was located at the foot of the hill. Just now on the road, Zhuang Huaijin heard that she was going to Qingyang Academy, and her heart immediately aroused, so she chatted with Yu Wenpei, who was in the car with her, about the anecdotes of this one of the four major academies in Daliang.
I think back then, the predecessor of Qingyang Academy was just a large inn for scholars on their way to take exams. Later, a great scholar opened a private school here, and after years of changes, it gradually expanded into an academy.
After the carriage and horses arrived, Qian Ruyu opened the curtain and looked out. There were several people standing in front of the academy door, including the academy chief and the prefect of the mansion.
This mountain chief was regarded as one of the most eminent scholars in the whole Qianjiang Prefecture. Before leaving, Chief Qian repeatedly told Qian Ruyu not to make any mistakes in front of this eminent scholar, even if it was just to show off.
Qian Ruyu was not a fool. He even told Xiao Yuexian to stay calm and not get out of the car. He waited in the car and got out of the car, holding the scribe's sword on his waist. He treated the great scholar with a rare gesture of humility.
Bow to the end.
The other scholars rushing to take the exam also got off the car at this time and greeted the mountain leader one by one. However, when the mountain leader returned the gift, he was obviously a little perfunctory.
Cheng Yu looked from the roof of the car. This so-called leader of one of the four major academies in Daliang seemed to be a great Confucian scholar, but compared with the poor scholar Zhuang Huaijin, he had no trace of righteousness at all.
There was no conversation that night. The next day, after everyone had lunch early in the academy, they hurried on their way.
The carriage was speeding along the way, and as expected, I saw many refugees with their families along the way. All of them had good looks, and their eyes were dull as they watched the speeding carriage pass by, bringing up bursts of smoke and dust.
After traveling like this for less than half a day, I saw a county seat standing in front of me, Qingyang County.
But from Cheng Yu's point of view, Qingyang County is nearly half smaller than Qingchuan County.
The clothes of the people in the city are much worse than those in Qingchuan County.
Cheng Yu secretly used his spiritual consciousness to explore Zhuang Huaijin's wishing energy group in Yuanshen. The stagnant energy on it was not very obvious, so there must be no serious problems here.
Cheng Yu originally planned to visit the Wenwu Temple in Qingyang County, but when he remembered that he encountered two evil people after crossing the Longxiang River, he seemed to have some grudges about his Wujun Token. He thought that it would be better to do less than to do more, so he Just give up.
As for Jia Fei, besides learning opera, after the lanterns first came on, he went out all over the city as a guerrilla to "gamble."
……
We kept walking and stopping like this until we arrived at Qianjiang Fucheng at noon seven days later.
Qianjiang Fucheng is located next to a large lake. Its city outline is larger than Qingchuan County, but it is also limited.
However, the population of the city is much larger than that of Qingchuan County. As seen from the air, the city is divided into two parts: inner and outer cities by the city wall. There is not a single thatched roof in the inner city. They are all brick and tile houses, with people coming and going in between. Rich family.
The brick and tile houses outside the city wall are also lined up in rows. They stretch until near the lake, and then the thatched houses gradually begin to appear. When they reach the lake, the continuous thatched houses are finally connected in a piece.
Looking at the huge lake ahead of the steaming dreamland, Jia Fei, standing on the top of the tower, Cheng Yu smiled faintly and said:
