"The sun is over the mountains, and the Huangshan Mountains flow into the sea, and I want to see you thousands of miles away..."

"Go to have a meal now!"

"Wu Xue!"

The strong Shixing was suddenly interrupted. Yao Ruoyu looked at Wu Xue who had a candied haw with some amusement and cried, and said helplessly: "By the way, can't you take out anything other than candied haws? There is also every chapter that you eat. Even if you are not afraid of tooth decay, aren't you afraid of being fat?"

"Ah! Don't slander me, okay? I won't be fat." Wu Xue wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction, then put away the candied haws with guilt, took out a horned pear, and bit it.

Holding your forehead with one hand, Yao Ruoyu smiled bitterly: "Is there nothing else in your backpack except for what you eat?"

"Are you going to prepare anything besides eating?" Blinking, Wu Xue looked at Yao Ruoyu curiously.

After looking at each other for a moment, Yao Ruoyu finally turned his head with a bitter smile and sighed: "Just be happy."

Seeing Yao Ruoyu being defeated, Fu Feng smiled happily and said, "Brother Yao, Wu Xue can even conquer a little prince like Chu Zheng. You have to fight with her like this. Who can you blame for being abused?"

Seeing him laughing at him, Yao Ruoyu smiled without any attention, and raised his waist with one hand and looked back at the distant river again.

Last night, when Zhang Ziqiang returned to the Chu Prince's Mansion, Yao Ruoyu told him about the matter that everyone was about to leave.

Although it was estimated that everyone was about to leave, Zhang Ziqiang was reluctant to leave after realizing it. Fortunately, he also knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion, and his mind was no longer as good as before.

The next day, cough, this morning, with Zhang Ziqiang's company, Yao Ruoyu and others visited Chu Kuangge specifically, expressed their intention to say goodbye, and expressed their gratitude and apologies for their disturbances these days.

After a simple visit, the Literature and Art Department left the Chu Palace and headed to Chaotianmen Wharf to take a boat.

Chaotianmen Wharf is located at the intersection of the Jialing River and the Yangtze River. From here, we go northwest along the Jialing River. We will arrive at Hezhou City about tomorrow morning.

Because he was riding in the carriage from the King of Chu Mansion, as soon as he arrived at the dock, an official in charge of Chaotianmen rushed out to greet him, and then Xun helped Yao Ruoyu and others arrange a passenger ship.

This passenger ship is not big, but it is enough to accommodate eight of them, plus two boatmen.

When they first left, everyone was quite excited. They stood on the deck and kept looking at the surrounding river scenery. However, after waiting for an hour, everyone gradually lost interest. Most of them simply returned to the cabin to rest. Only Yao Ruoyu, Wu Xue and Fu Feng were still on the deck.

After chatting for a while, Fu Feng and Wu Xue gradually lost interest and returned to the cabin to rest, leaving Yao Ruoyu alone on the deck.

"Young Master, we won't be here tomorrow. Don't you go and rest?" Seeing that Yao Ruoyu had been blowing on the deck, a boatman couldn't help asking.

Waving his hand, Yao Ruoyu smiled and said, "It's okay, I rarely take a boat since I was a child, so I'm more interested."

"Oh? That doesn't look like that," the boatman smiled, pulling the cable, and laughed, "Young Master, you don't look like you are seasick. You don't look like you are from Sichuan, but you are more like Jiangnan!"

After smiling, Yao Ruoyu's eyes inexplicably felt a little emotion: "I am from Zhejiang."

"Ye? That's a rich place," the boatman tied the cables and smiled, "The capital of our Song Dynasty is there."

"Is Hangzhou?" Yao Ruoyu smiled casually and asked, "Master, how long have you been this boatman?"

After touching his forehead, the boatman replied, "For more than ten years, our family was a pig slaughter. Unexpectedly, the group of golden dogs came over, and our old man was gone and the pigs died. Fortunately, the general leader was in charge of the master at that time. He arranged work for us, otherwise he would starve to death!"

"Well, the chief executive at that time was not Xu Jingmiao, right?" Yao Ruoyu asked casually after thinking about it.

"Yes!" replied with a smile, and the boatman suddenly said curiously, "But young master, why are you going to Hezhou City? I heard that there are so many chaotic things there, and there are horse bandits and bandits everywhere, and the Golden Dogzi are also making trouble there, it's so dangerous!"

Raising his eyebrows, Yao Ruoyu asked with interest: "Isn't there any Hezhou City Lord?"

"He?" He curled his lips disdainfully, and then the boatman looked at Yao Ruoyu with some fear, and quickly laughed, "Yes, too, there is also the lord of Hezhou City."

Seeing the abnormality on his face, Yao Ruoyu said curiously: "Uncle, come and listen!"

The boatman hesitated when he heard this: "This...this...you are a big shot, we are just a boatman..."

Having vaguely understood what he meant, Yao Ruoyu smiled and pulled him down, then took out a **Old Baigan and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Okay, we just said it so bored, you can just say it casually, I can also listen to it casually, and forget it after hearing it. How about it?"

Seeing that the old Baigan of Jiangjin, the boatman couldn't help swallowing his saliva. After hesitating for a while, he couldn't help but reach out to take the wine. He smiled dryly, "As long as I say, then I'll just talk...Young Master, just listen."

"Okay." Yao Ruoyu nodded and agreed with a smile.

After taking a few sips of the old white gantry, the boatman's dark face also had a bit of blushing, and he smiled and said, "When talking about the city lord of Hezhou City now, that's really not a thing. Relying on his being the godson of Prime Minister Qin, he drove away the original city lord of Hezhou and sat in this position."

"As a result, after becoming the city lord, this guy did not dare to deal with the surrounding horse bandits and bandits. He built a deputy city on the east side of the city and moved the city lord's mansion there." Speaking of this, the boatman slapped his thighs with some anger and cursed, "As a result, after all, the powerful and powerful people in the city moved their homes there, leaving only the civilians in Hezhou City."

Yao Ruoyu's face was shaking when he heard this, and he frowned and said, "In this case, isn't Hezhou City no one guarded?"

"That's it!" After drinking Lao Baigan, the boatman lamented, "Since then, Hezhou City has completely fallen into the hands of the bandits and bandits. It has been levied on three days and levied on five days, making people miserable. The city lord not only ignored these, but also sent people to continue to collect taxes. Master, tell me, can the people live a good life if so many families collect taxes together?"

"It's a big deal!" Yang Renjie, who came here at some point, slapped the armrest on the side of the deck and said angrily, "Why didn't that guy die? No one can care about him?"

"Who will take care of it?" The boatman sighed with a wry smile, "He is the godson of Prime Minister Qin. Relying on the power of Prime Minister Qin, the King of Chu and the Chief General could not control it because of Prime Minister."

After biting the steel teeth, Yang Renjie said angrily: "I originally thought Chu Kuangge and Xu Jingmiao were good people, but I didn't expect to bully the weak and fear the strong!"

"That can't be said that!" After looking at Yang Renjie, the boatman said helplessly, "The King of Chu and the Chief General are both good people, but the Prime Minister Qin is in power and they can't afford to offend Prime Minister Qin at all."

Frowning slightly, Yao Ruoyu glanced at the boatman in confusion. Obviously he didn't understand that Chu Kuangge, who was a powerful eighth level, would he be worried about that prime minister Qin? Could it be that the other party was also a powerful eighth level?

but……

"Prince Qin?" Blinking, Yao Ruoyu suddenly frowned, "Qin Hui?"

The boatman suddenly looked panicked, and quickly looked around, then whispered: "Hey, young master, don't call Master Qin's name directly! If someone hears it, be careful to cause trouble."

"Trouble? I'm just asking for trouble." After a smile, Yao Ruoyu replied casually. After all, their goal was to travel all over China to find lost classmates. Compared with this kind of thing, offending Qin Hui and others is really nothing.

In fact, when Yao Ruoyu was convinced that Prime Minister Qin was Qin Hui, he was not very afraid of this man. After all, it was still difficult for him to tie this scum who had been infatuated for thousands of years to the powerful eighth level.

As he thought, Chu Kuangge was concerned about the other party because he was the prime minister and it was difficult to impose interference by force.

Seeing that the boatman was drunk, Yao Ruoyu deliberately asked about the situation in Hezhou City, which was consistent with most of the things he knew, including the existence of the five heroes of Hezhou, which were indeed the Taoyuan Gang, the Guardian Mansion, the Baihe Academy, the Wild Fire Thieves and the Black Wolf Cavities.

The Wildfire Thieves were bandits supported by the Jin people, the Black Wolf Cavalry was a horse bandit formed by descendants of the Liao Kingdom, and the Taoyuan Gang was said to be built by descendants of Liu Bei of Shu Han. The brains of these three non-decent forces are said to be powerful people with five realms of cultivation.

As for Baihe Academy, it was founded by an old spiritual master in Hezhou City. It was originally just a purely teaching Confucian righteousness. Later, because the situation in Hezhou City was complicated and repeatedly attacked by foreign enemies, the old spiritual master finally began to teach spiritual methods to train spiritual masters to protect Hezhou City.

In fact, the reason why Hezhou City, which has been abandoned by the garrison, has not been occupied by the wildfire thieves, the Black Wolf Cavalry, and the Taoyuan Gang is all because of the existence of Baihe Academy. Otherwise, the city would have been divided up by three major tyrant forces.

"But it's up!" The boatman who was smacked his lips and drank drunk suddenly grabbed Yao Ruoyu and said with a foolish smile, "The Lord of Hezhou City has a treasure in his hand, which can destroy the cultivation level of the practitioner..."

Yao Ruoyu and Yang Renjie were shocked when they heard this, and the latter changed color and said, "How is that possible?"

"Is it really good?" Although I was so drunk, the boatman still looked stern when he heard Yang Renjie's rebuttal and muttered, "We are from Hezhou, are you good that you have seen with your own eyes?"

"Uncle, are you from Hezhou?" Yao Ruoyu nodded suddenly.

He had previously suspected that as the saying goes, "It's not up to you." If the boatman was from the main city of Chongqing, he would not be so angry with the city lord of Hezhou during his conversation. Therefore, he had long doubted whether this person was a local from Hezhou. Moreover, because of the relationship between the city lord, his family had to fall into decline, so he had to go to Chongqing Prefecture to be a boatman.

"Old demon, let's teach that person a lesson?" Yang Renjie clenched his fists and smiled eagerly.

He glanced at him and Yao Ruoyu said angrily: "The other party is at least the first level of the fifth level. Are you sure you want to teach him a lesson?"

"Ahem, I'm talking casually..." Yang Renjie touched his forehead awkwardly. He... No, it should be said that the word "Five Realms" that the entire literary and artistic department is most afraid of now. Because the life and death several times since his debut, it was almost all brought to them by the powerful people of the Five Realms, so now they will twitch psychologically when they hear this word.

After smiling, Yao Ruoyu turned his head and looked into the distance, and suddenly murmured in his heart: "The Lord of Hezhou... is the fifth realm?"
