Immortal Fate: Create thousands of secret treasures at your fingertips

Chapter 15 The scholar in white enters the river far away



Jiangyuan, built along the river, is a large city under Xuanxin Mansion. It has thoroughfares from north to south and is busy with freight.

Lu Shi stood on the deck of a cargo ship, his figure rising and falling with the water waves, surrounded by vast smoke and steaming mist.

"How long will it take for the shipowner to arrive?" Lu Shi asked.

The cargo ship is not big, so it is unexpected. There are three boatmen on the ship, and there are only four people including the ship owner. It transports ordinary goods to and from the towns along the thousands of miles of flat river.

A few days ago, Lu Shi boarded a ship from a town dozens of miles downstream from Xuanxin Mansion and headed south along the river. His destination was Jiangyuan City. ,

"It's almost here. I think we can reach Jiangyuan in less than an hour."

The shipowner was an old man in his fifties, with a vicissitudes of life on his face, and a toothless smile as he spoke.

For tasks like carrying people on the way, they were just a helper. However, Lu Shi was generous and made the ship owner feel that this trip was profitable, so they naturally responded to some of Lu Shi's requests.

After breaking free from the prison of the Jinyang Gang, Lu Shi would naturally not treat himself harshly.

Of course, he also knew his current situation. Even if he still didn't know what the Jinyang Gang would do, he could still predict that the Jinyang Gang would not let him go easily.

Lu Shi was mentally prepared for this, so he covered himself up from the beginning, changed his outfit, and also put on some makeup on his face.

Lu Shi was now dressed in white, with a slim and tall figure. He looked frail, like a scholar hiding from a warrior. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, it is a stage full of youthfulness. Dressing like this makes it difficult for people to associate it with the handyman before. Even if someone familiar is around, if you don't observe carefully, it may look very strange. It's hard to tell his true identity.

If he were timid, he would have been more cautious in hiding in this situation, but Lu Shi felt that there was no need to do that. As long as he covered up and planned well, he didn't feel that he would be in any danger in a short period of time.

Five days have passed since the Jinyang Gang left, and today is the sixth day. Lu Shi did not relax in refining his true energy along the way. By the way, most of the bladder meridian of Foot Taiyang has been opened, and it is only a few days away from being completely opened.

The total amount of Qi in his body is gradually increasing, and everything is developing in a good direction.

An hour passed quickly. Lu Shi looked up and saw many buildings along the river. Thousands of sails were racing on the river in this area, and the sails were like clouds. The lively scene made Lu Shi sigh. .

Not long after, the boat had docked, and Lu Shi, carrying a small package on his back, like a scholar on a far journey, walked ashore calmly and walked towards the city.

Before entering the city, you can feel the prosperity of Jiangyuan. The commercial atmosphere here is even stronger. Even in front of the crossing near the city gate, there are already people coming and going, and the sound of hawking is endless. This shows what will happen in the city. scene.

Seeing that the guards at the city gate were checking the people and goods entering the city, Lu Shi did not step forward immediately. Instead, he chose a tea stall and sat down, ordered a bowl of coarse tea, and listened quietly.

This was a good place to inquire about information, and there were endless conversations all around. When Lu Shi paid attention, he actually heard something useful.

"The inspections have become much stricter in the past few days. I don't know what orders the military masters got, but they are not allowed to enter the city without a road."

"Didn't you hear? I heard that there is a great master in this area, and the Xuanxin Mansion has issued a sea arrest document."

"I see, please tell me carefully."

"I also heard that something was lost in the Xuanxin Mansion and I'm looking for it now. If anyone can find it, there will be a heavy reward."

"How big is the reward?"

"This number!"

"Five hundred taels of silver? What a generous gesture!"

"That's not true. I heard that this was an order given by the Fumu himself, so those soldiers can't be careless."

"I see. I wonder what was lost in the Xuanxin Mansion that caused so much trouble."

"I don't know about that."

Lu Shi took a sip from the tea bowl and frowned slightly. He felt that the tea was bitter and difficult to drink, so he couldn't help but put it down, then glanced around and observed again.

He didn't have a road guide, which meant that it would be difficult to enter the city now.

However, Lu Shi was not in a hurry. It was easy to get in and out of the city. Although the outside of the city was not as prosperous as the city, it was not too bad. He just found a temporary place to stay and then made plans.

After hearing this information from the people around him, Lu Shi already knew his situation, but he didn't expect that just by setting a fire in the Jinyang Gang, he would cause such a big commotion. This made him couldn't help but think of that day. The noble prince I met.

He was sure that some of the changes must have been at the hands of the noble young master, but Lu Shi couldn't think of any other reason.

As for what happened, Lu Shi never knew.

Lu Shi quickly found a place to stay in the surrounding area. It was a travel shop with an average environment, but it was good because there was a vacant room for him to stay in, which could be regarded as a temporary place to settle down.

After that, Lu Shi began to practice hard every day.

Practicing hard was not a matter of practicing day and night, but was carried out in divided time every day, and Lu Shi used his spare time to search for information.

It stands to reason that his appearance and identity will attract attention, but don't forget that there are many people gathering at the entrance of such a big city every day. Entering the city requires copper. For some ordinary families who are struggling to make ends meet, Save money if you can, so naturally most of the people gathered at the city gate will not enter the city.

So Lu Shi didn't look out of place when he mingled among them. There were not many down-and-out scholars there. There were all kinds of people from all walks of life here. Lu Shi acted in a low-key manner and naturally didn't attract much attention.

Don't overestimate the feudal dynasty's control over the lowest level. Lu Shi was aware of this, and that's why he chose to come to Jiangyuan City, just to have fun under the lamp.

Four days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Lu Shi, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes with a flash of light. His robes bulged slightly and then fell down. A smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Fu Taiyang Bladder Meridian is clear!"

Feeling the small circulation of infuriating energy generated in his body, Lu Shi's mood immediately improved a lot.

This step has stumped many warriors. Lu Shi didn't know how difficult it would be for others to achieve this step, but for him, it can only be regarded as a time-consuming effort, not difficult at all.

At this time, the small cycle is 10%, and the confidence is full.

"It's time to go into town."

Lu Shi got up, cleaned up, took out the road guide from the small package, and walked towards the city gate calmly.

As for where the road leads come from?

It's quite simple to say. There are always people who are short-sighted. After all, there are many people coming and going here, and the composition is complex. There are also thieves and evil people. Lu Shi has not done anything these days.

Just find the target and kill it, and then find the way to guide it, naturally it won't be a problem.

Even according to the information Lu Shi inquired about, there were people outside the city gate who specialized in selling road guides. This thing had become a business here, but no one came to investigate.

If it weren't for not leaving too many traces, Lu Shi might have chosen to buy a road guide, but now that he already had a road guide, Lu Shi naturally wouldn't bother with it.

The process of entering the city was uneventful. A piece of silver was stuffed in, and the soldier just checked casually, and then let Lu Shi enter the city.

After entering the city, Lu Shi directly found a hotel to stay at, and then asked the waiter at the hotel to inquire.

"Is there any famous martial arts school in Jiangyuan City?"
