Chapter 362 Take a look in this mirror
Fengzhou is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces a river on one side. It is a transportation hub in the central part of Daqi.
Very prosperous.
The traffic of merchant ships is very intensive, and the waterways in the state are also connected in all directions.
Therefore, after Zhou Heng arrived in Fengzhou through the Starlight Bridge of Ziwei Palace, he did not go directly to Rongdu Mansion to look for Yunxiu and He Mengqiu. Instead, he boarded a merchant ship and sailed along the waterway.
What he wants to cultivate is the Five Virtues, which is Paul's path to all things. Not only does he need to practice hard and collect the energy of the Five Virtues, but he also needs to observe the natural scenery and examine humanistic principles.
Moreover, he still lacks two of the five virtues, holy virtue and yin virtue.
Although Zhou Heng had already planned to collect the two, he still needed to accumulate them carefully on weekdays.
Both of these are related to people.
You can't accumulate holy virtues and negative virtues by walking alone, so you have to spend more time with others.
…
Ronghua River is a large river in Fengzhou. It is one of the tributaries of Tianfeng River after it flows through Fengzhou. It is mighty and stretches for tens of thousands of miles, reaching Rongdu Prefecture.
There are hundreds of boats competing on the river, and there are many merchant ships and passenger ships, making it very lively.
The merchant ship Zhou Heng was traveling on was a medium-sized cargo ship. It mainly transported fruits, vegetables and fresh meat. It was not very valuable, so it did not exclude guests from taking advantage of it.
Because of Zhou Heng's good looks and gentle temperament, he quickly became acquainted with these boatmen. Along the way, he learned a lot about the customs and customs of various places in Fengzhou, and also heard about many strange people and strange things that he had never known before.
This is very helpful for him to increase his knowledge.
After the tense time in Southern Jin Dynasty, such a trip was a good relaxation for Zhou Heng.
Especially the sewage soup and pancakes on this ship are very delicious.
Let Zhou Heng find the feeling of life when he found the earth.
At that time, he often went to the soup restaurant opposite the school gate to eat similar things for breakfast.
Moreover, the sesame soup and sesame seed cakes here are free.
for free.
In fact, Zhou Heng originally wanted to spend money to buy it, but the boatmen didn't agree. They felt that no one wanted to put it in the water outside the boat, and it couldn't be eaten at ordinary times, so there was no reason to charge money.
In addition, Zhou Heng's disguised identity is still a traveling student, with only some self-defense martial arts skills and not much money, so the boatmen are even more unwilling to accept his money.
Zhou Heng didn't worry about it. At worst, he could just quietly leave some money for them when they got off the ship.
In the early morning of this day, Zhou Heng asked for a bowl of sewer soup from a boatman he knew well. It was covered with a layer of bright red oil and looked very tempting.
With five sesame seed cakes in his hand, he found a wooden board on the deck as a table, put the sesame soup on it, and ate one bite of sesame seed cakes and one bite of soup.
Beautiful.
"Hey, Xiao Zhou." Boatman He Dacheng also came over with a bowl of sewage soup and whispered: "When you arrive outside Rongdu Mansion at noon, you can get off the boat."
"Hululu...what?" Zhou Heng took a sip of the soup, and after swallowing it, he looked at He Dacheng in confusion, "What's going on? Didn't I agree to get off the soup in Rongdu Prefecture before?"
Fucheng is the center of a prefecture. Usually, after entering the area of a prefecture, you still need to walk for a while before you can get to Fucheng.
"It's not that we don't want to send you there." He Dacheng lowered his voice and said, "The bow of the boat stopped at the reed marsh for a while yesterday. Do you remember it?"
"Remember." Zhou Heng nodded and said, "I remember there seemed to be two people coming up, a man and a woman?"
"You should observe carefully." He Dacheng sighed and said, "It's these two people. Originally, the bow of the ship felt sorry for them because they were rushing, so they agreed to spend some money on the boat to catch a smooth sailing, but I didn't expect..."
"Do they have malicious intentions?" Zhou Heng said in surprise when he heard this. At the same time, he dispersed his consciousness and instantly enveloped the entire ship, and also discovered the location of the two people.
"These two people hijacked the bow of the ship and asked us to divert outside Rongdu Mansion to Fengzhou County." He Dacheng whispered: "No one knows the purpose of these two people, but we cannot ignore the safety of the bow of the ship. , Xiao Zhou, this matter has nothing to do with you, you should get off the boat early. "
For boatmen, the bowman is not only their employer, but also the big brother they admire, the savior who is willing to take them in and give them a livelihood when they are in poverty.
The long-term drifting on the waterway has created a relationship between the boatmen and the bow of the ship that is comparable to life and death. Now that the bow of the ship has been hijacked, the boatmen will naturally not give up.
"Lao He, what are you going to do?" Zhou Heng gently put down the sesame soup in his hand, broke the sesame cakes into pieces bit by bit, and put them in the soup.
"Of course I did it!" A fierce expression appeared on He Dacheng's face, and he said: "Xiao Zhou, don't look at me, He, who doesn't usually fight, but we are also close to ninth-level masters, and we know a lot of martial arts. "
"The bow of the boat must be a seventh-grade warrior." Zhou Heng said with a smile.
"Yes, yes..." He Dacheng seemed to realize something, his expression darkened, but then he cheered up, "There is strength in numbers, and those two guys are not big shots of the Secret Sixth Grade. We have many people, It always kills him."
"But, those are two secret sixth-grade warriors." Zhou Heng shook his head slightly, stood up, and looked at the cabin not far away, "Two secret sixth-grade warriors hijacked an ordinary cargo ship and specially diverted it. If you want to go to Fengzhou County, there will be problems no matter how you look at it.”
"Ah?" He Dacheng was a little confused when he heard this, and looked at Zhou Heng with a puzzled face, "Xiao, Xiao Zhou, aren't you a scholar who went out to study? How do you know so much about warriors?"
"The book told me." Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Since I want to travel thousands of miles, I naturally have to read thousands of books first. There are also martial arts principles in the books. Old He, you can also read more books in the future."
"Come on, we know our own things. My brother is good at practicing martial arts, but reading is unnecessary." He Dacheng shook his head repeatedly, "Let alone reading, even seeing more than ten words put together makes me dizzy.
"By the way, let's not talk about this, Xiao Zhou, since you have read a lot and understand warriors, is there any way to deal with those two... him, are they really secret sixth-grade warriors? "
He Dacheng still felt a little bit unbelievable.
Secret Sixth Grade!
For ordinary people, this is a big man who can go in and out of Qingming, fly into the sky and hide in the ground. He can be the master of a prefecture. How could he appear here and hijack the bow of the ship?
Somewhat incredible.
"There is indeed a way." Zhou Heng smiled and took out a black mirror from his arms, handed it to He Dacheng, and said with a smile: "Old He, if you trust me, take this mirror and look at those two people."
