Before leaving for Yunxuezong, Ji Que made a lot of preparations, such as maps, dry food, clothes, and how to keep his bank notes.

In short, it was a big decision to go.

Since Ning Hongyu brought the 8,000 taels of silver notes, he solved Ji Que's stretched situation and finished the remaining part of the Qianji Sword, leaving 6,000 taels of silver.

It is equivalent to saying that his sword cost him a total of six thousand taels of silver because of some special materials and craftsmanship.

Thinking about it now, Ji Que couldn't help feeling heartbroken, he had the illusion that there was a mouse hole in his clothes, and he kept taking money from him.

It can only be said that the work of a practitioner always costs money. He just made a simple sword. How could he have the illusion of playing with a watch or a car, or an otaku playing with a figure?

As for the bank notes and title deeds hidden deep in the cellar, Ji Que was still a little worried, and couldn't help complaining to Lin Xiangzhi during the meal: "Oh, I really don't like money, and I don't like money when I have money." happy.

Thinking back now, the happiest thing was when I was a poor scholar and my family turned over and over for less than ten taels of silver. "

Lin Xiangzhi ignored him and looked at him with contemptuous eyes.

On the same day, Ji Que packed his luggage and took Lin Xiangzhi out the door.

One person and one cat followed the Qingyun River to Xichengmen Wharf.

According to the route, it is most convenient for them to go to Yunxuezong by boat.

It was already in the afternoon, misty water mist appeared on the broad river, and there was only one passenger boat going to Yunshanzong at the pier.

Yunxuezong is a well-known practice place in the north, occupying a blessed place in the cave, with a profound foundation.

If you take the dry road, it will take four days for a fast horse, but if you take the water road, you can reach the shallow rocky beach in front of Yunxuezong in two days and two nights.

Ji Que didn't like riding horses in the first place, and he was in a state of accumulating understanding, so he resolutely chose to take a boat.

This big ship won't be crippled, right?

There are about 20 guests on this boat, most of them are chicly dressed in feather fans and scarves.

Ji Que was not surprised either. According to the file information, the tenth day of this month was the day when Yun Xuezong recruited people.

However, it is not disciples who are recruited, but handymen.

These people are so exquisitely dressed, it is obvious that they are there for the sake of immortality.

Yunxuezong is a sacred place of practice, and there are all handsome and beautiful senior brothers and sisters inside, so many people are fascinated by it.

Many young masters and young ladies are willing to work as handymen, not only because of the hope that a handyman can become a disciple, but also because even the handyman of the sect has a much higher status than ordinary people.

Mrs. Bai's previous statement was correct. The status of the sect monks of the famous sect in this great dynasty is definitely not comparable to that of a scholar.

Therefore, everyone on this ship can be regarded as competitors.

Because of Ji Que's handsome appearance, these people became wary the moment they boarded the boat.

As we all know, Yun Xuezong attaches great importance to a person's appearance.

Among them, the two sons with the most outstanding looks secretly glanced at Ji Que, and they both had the feeling of "this son's appearance is not inferior to mine."

No, after looking at it for a while, I couldn't help but secretly said in surprise: "This boy's appearance is actually a little better than mine."

When they got to the back, they didn't dare to look any more, for fear that their Dao heart would be affected.

At this time, the big ship started slowly.

Ji Que didn't go to the cabin to rest, but stood on the deck to watch the scenery.

Growing up so big, it was the first time for him to sit in such a big boat.

Before departure, the captain of the boat took out a pig's head as usual, put in a joss stick, worshiped the river god, and prayed for a smooth journey.

As a result, as soon as the worship was completed and the sails were raised, a muffled bang was heard hitting the deck.

At the feet of the scholar who got on the boat last, there was an eagle that fell to death. The blood was all over the ground, and two drops even splashed on the scholar's clothes.

Looking at this scene, Ji Que murmured, "It's bad luck. What is this, a Syrian eagle?"

Everyone couldn't help looking at him strangely, but he pretended not to see it.

The eagle fell off the deck and died, what does it have to do with me?

The eagle that fell to death was quickly disposed of by the terrified boatman, and the blood on the deck was washed away quickly.

It wasn't until the eagle was thrown into the river that Ji Que regretted it for a while.

This eagle meat doesn't know what it tastes like when it's grilled.

As the hull swayed slightly, the big ship pulled anchor and set sail.

When I first came out of Tianren City, the river level was gentle. On both sides of the bank were towns built attached to Tianren City. Buildings and fields interlaced. People working hard in the fields by the river can often be seen, like splash-ink paintings full of life.

It's just that as the big ship sailed, the scenery on both sides of the bank gradually became desolate, and the gentle hills turned into cold peaks. There were occasional buildings in the mountains and forests, and there was a sense of precipitousness among the cliffs.

The river became more and more turbulent, and the dark current rushed against the hull and the shore, and the rolled up waves were like white snow.

Ji Que stood on the deck with the river wind blowing, a little proud and a little happy.

Every time you go out, it is like exploring an unknown map while playing a game, full of thrills and excitement.

A man is born with an adventurous gene, but this kind of adventure needs to be maintained at a certain level, at least not delaying his enjoyment of food and life.

At this time, the water ahead became more and more turbulent, and the cliffs on the river bank were getting closer and closer.

Several times, Ji Que felt that the edge of the ship was passing by the cliff.

The hull of the ship was rippling more and more violently, and some well-dressed young men and women had already started to vomit from seasickness, and their faces were in distress.

Ji Que was fine, his feet seemed to be glued to the deck, rising and falling with the hull of the boat.

At this time, an old man with bare arms came to the deck and asked the man at the helm to drive away. He held the rudder with his left hand and pulled up the sail with his right hand, with a look of ease.

Ji Que soon discovered something very interesting, that is, the old man has six toes on his right foot.

With six toes palming the boat, this talent and hardware are almost the same as my own study, and I was born to eat this bowl of rice.

The continuous rippling of the hull caused a burst of complaints and strange screams from the cabin.

It seems that the young men and women here rarely take a boat.

But after a while, as soon as the old man got his hands on it, the boat quickly stabilized.

Soon a boatman reassured: "Guests, don't panic, it's just a little undercurrent, and it's all right now."

It was only later that Ji Que found out that the old man called himself "Lu Lao Liu" and was the real boss of the ship.

As the big boat moved forward, Ji Que felt more and more that the old six was really slick in sailing the boat. Under such turbulent water, although the big boat shook, it was not violent.

Especially when encountering a bend in a river, it actually gives people a smooth feeling of drifting and cornering.

At this time, it was dusk, and the sounds of apes came from the forests on both sides of the river, and the sounds of apes echoed in the river, which seemed very deep.

When we got here, there were almost no traces of people on both sides of the strait.

As the sky was getting late, lights were quickly hung on the bow and stern of the ship.

The light of the lamp is reflected in the dark river, and there are no other lights in the whole river, which makes people feel lonely involuntarily.

At this time, Ji Que noticed a detail, that is, there is a human figure engraved on the outside of the lantern, which looks very similar to the Buddha in the temple, but the carving technique is a bit rough, so that the Buddha's face is blurred, giving people a gloomy look feeling.

So he couldn't help asking: "Master Liu, what is that engraved on your lamp?"

Lu Lao Liu glanced at it, and said with a strong accent: "It's the Lantern Shadow Buddha, who wards off evil spirits."

Ji Que raised his eyebrows and said, "Resist evil spirits? Have you guys encountered any strange things while running the boat?"

Lu Lao Liu took a puff of dry tobacco and said, "After so many years, how could we meet a little?"

Ji Que became interested all of a sudden, and said: "Anyway, idleness is idleness, you always tell me, let me learn more."

He likes to listen to stories, but the white cat Lin Xiangzhi has already jumped aside and looked at him with strange eyes.

On the river at night, what's wrong with this man, let people tell ghost stories.

Lu Lao Liu rolled up his sleeves and said, "Okay, since you are idle anyway, then talk to the young master, and the young master should not take it to heart."

The hull of the boat shook slightly, and the light from the lights reflected on Lu Lao Liu's face, flickering on and off for a while.

And the shadow of the Buddha lamp reflected on the deck was also distorted for a moment, giving it a hideous taste.
