Seeing Chai Fugui walk out, Mo Lingtian turned around again. Shaking the teacup in his hand, watching the ripples of tea in the cup, he fell into deep thought......

"Governor of the Three Provinces, what are you going to do? Xiaowei ......"

After a long time, he looked out the window and muttered a word, then he also turned and went downstairs and out of the teahouse. Walk in the direction of the Qinhuai River......

The continuous spring rain has been falling for almost four days, and the cool weather can't help but make people feel like they are in late autumn. The bustling city of Jinling is also much deserted and quieter under this weather, but in secret, many things are happening...... It's like the calm before the storm.

After Gao Xiaowu left that day, he decided to come to Jinling. Because he felt that this might be the best chance for him to become a hero.

He didn't want to hide in the refugee pile, eat rat meat every day, and do some roadblock robbery......

He was tired of this kind of life, especially after seeing Baihua and Shen Wei, two peerless masters, in one day.

He felt that what he had done before was just a child playing at home, that heroes shouldn't be like this, that the world was big, and that he decided to go out and have a look.

He changed into the clothes he had been wearing when he entered the city, and then set off with the few things that Shi Yuan had given him. And with him came four other people, all of whom had been with him for a long time.

Although there are not enough clothes, there is the silver that Shi Yuan left him, and all this is not a problem.

He went into the city to buy clothes for four other people, and then used some of the money to buy pastries and distribute them among the people who had followed him before - to be a man was to be righteous, which his adoptive father had taught him.

I have to say that the rainy day really helped them a lot. Because of the rain, there were no soldiers guarding the official road junction between Jinling and Fanshui County, which was usually heavily guarded. There are five people squeezed into one car, which is too easy to arouse suspicion from others!

But even so, the coachman still didn't dare to cross the stone bridge by Mingyang Lake outside Jinling City, so he let them go.

And tell them that this is Mingyang Lake! Gao Xiaowu looked at Mingyang Lake and felt that this lake was really big! It's almost as big as Hangzhou's West Lake......

This Jinling is really different from Yangzhou, Gao Xiaowu looked at those talented scholars who were dressed in colorful clothes, holding oil-paper umbrellas, pointing out the country on the stone bridge, inspiring words, and reciting poems that he couldn't understand at all...... He felt that he had really come to the right place this time!

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, he decided not to go to the city, and immediately inquired about the whereabouts of the "Yelian Island" that Shi Yuan said.

However, although he inquired about the whereabouts of Yelian Island, no one was willing to take them to the island.

The boatmen seemed to be very afraid of the island, and even a few people looked at them with very cold eyes, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

When they arrived at Jinling on the day of Qingming, it was already early. Seeing that it was about to get dark, Gao Xiaowu made a very bold decision - he decided to enter Jinling City!

There are many cities he has entered before, but they are all small counties, such as Jinling and Yangzhou, but he has never entered them. By the way, he had been to Hangzhou, and when he was very young, he went with his adoptive father.

He also tried to infiltrate the city of Yangzhou, but was unsuccessful. Although he was wearing silk brocade, it could not hide the foul smell of his body and the boots that had leaked his thumbs at his feet......

Since that time, he has put away his plans to enter Yangzhou City. Anxin mixed up in the small counties around Yangzhou...... But this time, he decided to go to Jinling City, which was the same as Yangzhou, and it was not easy for them to enter.

He had heard too many rumors about Jinling City among the refugees, and none of those refugees dared to cross Fan Shui.

Because in Yangzhou, they may live very hard, they may not be able to eat, and they will starve...... But if they get to Jinling, they may not even be able to save their lives!

For the people in Jinling City, Luo Haotian is the "King of Yama", and for those refugees in Yangzhou, he has one more title - Murderer!

As a senior junior who has been active in Fanshui County for a long time, he knows that many people have tried to cross Fanshui to Jinling, but they are all missing! According to those who fled, they were all killed by the soldiers of Jinling......

It was precisely because of this that after learning that his subordinates did not want to go to Jinling, Gao Xiaowu did not blame them.

They just want to eat with themselves, and there is no need to lose their lives for his "heroic dream" alone.

The only person who made him feel a little regretful was Chai Fugui, because Chai Fugui was the only one who was literate and the only one who could talk to him.

But regret is regret, he can't tie Chai Fugui here, right?

I have to say that God helped Gao Xiaowu again, and he thought that it would be difficult to enter Jinling City. But it turned out to be surprisingly simple!

Mixed in with those talented people, the two guards guarding the city gate didn't even look at them.

It turns out that this Jinling City is not difficult to enter, but the difficulty is how to get to Jinling. After entering the city, Gao Xiaowu said silently in his heart.

But what he didn't know was that this Jinling City may be very easy to enter, but it needs to pay silver! They...... It's just that I encountered continuous rainy days, and I was really lucky.

After entering Jinling City, Gao Xiaowu was like opening the door to a new world: it turned out that there was still such a prosperous place in this world!

At the same time, Gao Xiaowu heard more and more rumors about Shi Yuan in the city. Those gentlemen who tell stories at roadside tea stalls even say that Shi Yuan is a god! Of course, there are also many who say that Shi Yuan is the reincarnation of the devil......

Only then did he know that Shi Yuan was not simple.

But in addition to being shocked, his heart was full of curiosity, why would such a character say that he was the same as him? This made Gao Xiaowu very puzzling.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Gao Xiaowu did not take those little brothers who were as shocked and dazzling as himself to go around the city. After they entered the city that day, it was already early, so Gao Xiaowu decided to find someone who could live.

Although Shi Yuan gave him a lot of money, after changing the outfits of the other four people, buying food to distribute to everyone, and paying for the car, it was not much. What's more, they still have to eat......

He had never stayed in an inn before, and he slept in the wild since he was rushed to Yangzhou as a refugee. As for when he was in Hangzhou before, he slept in a ruined temple......

Gao Xiaowu was illiterate, and several people who traveled with him were also illiterate. He had no choice but to ask one by one, there were many inns in Jinling City, but none of them were willing to let the five of them sleep in one room.

In addition, because of the Jiangnan Poetry Society, there are many talented people in Jinling City, so many inns in the city are not available.

Seeing that it was getting late, just when Gao Xiaowu thought that a few of them were going to be discovered by the soldiers patrolling the city at night, driven out of the city, or lose their lives, he finally found a place to live.

It's just that this place is not an inn, but an ordinary house......
