The next morning, Xuan Bei knocked on Lu Feng's door.
"Martial Nephew, it's time to get up and hurry."
Xuan Bei wanted to avoid any unforeseen circumstances during this secret visit. When the sky was still hazy and bright, he knocked on Lu Feng's door with loud crackling sounds.
Lu Feng, who had been practicing the Nine Yang Divine Technique the night before, had woken up long ago when he heard a knock on the door.
Lu Feng walked to the door and opened it. Seeing that it was Xuan Bei, he closed the door.
"Uncle-Master, how long will it take to arrive?"
Xuan Bei, who was standing outside the door, calculated in his heart and replied to Lu Feng.
"If everything goes smoothly, I'm afraid we'll be able to reach this place in seven days.”
After hearing Xuan Bei's words, Lu Feng nodded and the two of them went downstairs.
Lu Feng said to the waiter after they went downstairs.
"Lead my horse to the front yard and give me ten steamed buns to eat on the way.”
the waiter said straightforwardly.
After Lu Feng settled the bill with the shopkeeper, he stuffed the steamed buns into his luggage and followed Xuan Bei out of the door.
Swallows 'Cove, Canhe Village.
Martial arts field.
There was a handsome young man practicing martial arts in the square. At the periphery of the square, there were still three girls standing, their gazes focused on the young man in the square.
Upon closer inspection, the three of them were in a triangular formation. The three of them were beautiful, especially the girl standing in front.
At first glance, her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes were like a lake of clear water. When she looked around, she carried a kind of light spirit that made people feel shocked and ashamed. They did not dare to profane her.
However, that calm and quick-witted aura was unforgettable and could not help but be haunted by it.
Although the two girls at the back were slightly inferior to the girl standing in front, they were still much stronger than ordinary girls. One of them had truly fallen into a lotus flower out of the water, while the other was a jade from a humble family.
……
After seven days of rushing, Lu Feng and the other man finally arrived at Suzhou by boat.
Xuan Bei and Lu Feng asked the boatman at the ferry about Swallow Dock.
There were dozens of ferrymen and boatmen at the ferry. One of the boatmen asked Lu Feng when he heard his words.
"May I know why little master is going to Swallow Dock?”
Lu Feng saw that a boatman knew about Swallow Dock and was instantly delighted. However, he did not show any emotion on his face as he spoke to the boatman.
"My master is an old friend of Almsgiver Murong Bo. A few days ago, my master asked me and my martial uncle to visit Almsgiver Murong Bo of Canhe Village in Swallow Dock.”
When the boatman heard that Lu Feng was a friend of Zhuang Murong Bo, he relaxed his guard against outsiders. Murong Bo had a good reputation in Taihu Lake.
In the past, bandits roamed around Lake Tai, making it difficult for boatmen and fishermen to support their families. Ever since the appearance of Canhe Zhuang Murong Bo, he had wiped out more than 120 bandits, big and small, with one sword.
The fishermen and boatmen who lived by Lake Tai were extremely respectful and grateful to Master Murong Bo. They were also wary of outsiders seeking revenge on Murong Bo. Therefore, whenever someone went to Canhe Village, the boatmen and fishermen would ask for their purpose.
After Lu Feng and Xuan Bei boarded the ship, Murong Bo heard that they were coming to Canhe Village.
A man dressed in black was kneeling in front of a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man had an extraordinary appearance. One could tell at a glance that the man had been in a high position for a long time. The black-robed man reported to the middle-aged man.
"Master, the Shaolin Monastery's eminent monk Xuan Bei is about to arrive at Canhe Village with a young monk.”
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, but his expression remained unchanged as he spoke to the man kneeling in front of him.
"You can leave. I'll make the arrangements.”
Lu Feng and Xuan Bei sat on the boatman's ferry and looked at the Jiangnan water village in front of them.
Lu Feng could not help but sigh.
"As expected of the Jiangnan region. The river branches are crisscrossed. Every few miles, there is a small courtyard.”
Lu Feng asked the boatman.
"I heard that Donor Zhuang Murong Bo is a chivalrous person. His reputation is widely spread in the martial arts world. He is eager for justice and is worthy of being a role model in the martial arts world.”
When the boatman heard Lu Feng praise Murong Bo so much, he immediately started to talk.
"Yes, yes! Before the Great Swordsman Murong Bo came out of the Jianghu, there were bandits and pirates everywhere in Taihu Lake, causing the people to be in a difficult situation. Fishermen like us who make a living by fishing suffered even more.”
"Ever since Great Swordsman Murong single-handedly defeated those bandits, we poor people have been able to survive.”
After saying that, the boatman's originally calm face could not help but reveal a trace of a smile.
After listening to the boatman's words, Lu Feng felt that things were not good. Murong Bo was so respected in Taihu Lake. He probably knew about it before they even boarded the boat.
No wonder Xuan Bei died in Murong Bo's hands in his previous life. With his character as an eminent monk, he might not think highly of this village boatman, let alone get any useful information from their thoughts.
Then, Lu Feng thought about it. Fortunately, he had obtained the top-level Dragon Subduing Palm Technique and Nine Yang Divine Technique. He could not help but feel at ease. Otherwise, there would have been many unforeseen events.
These days, although Lu Feng had been traveling with his Uncle-Master Xuan Bei, he had never stopped cultivating. Now, he was already in the late stage of the first-class realm. He was only one opportunity away from breaking through to the Connate realm.
After a while.
The boatman placed the two of them in front of a manor and said to the two monks.
"Masters, it's getting late. Why don't you rest in this small village for a while before heading to Canhe Village tomorrow?”
Xuan Bei looked up at the sky and was about to say that it was still early. If they hurried, they would definitely reach Canhe Village before dark.
Lu Feng hurriedly pulled Xuan Bei's arm, rolled his eyes twice, and said to the boatman.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, benefactor. However, the two of them are unfamiliar with the place and people. The owner of this manor might not be willing to let them stay.”
Xuan Bei saw Lu Feng pulling him and understood. Lu Feng must have discovered something, but he was not aware of it for a moment.
The boatman said in a clear voice when he saw that the Lu Feng duo did not shirk the responsibility.
"This manor can be considered Mister Murong's property. There are quite a number of empty rooms. The two eminent monks can stay here at will.”
Lu Feng could only reply to the boatman.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, old benefactor!”
Seeing the boatman leave, Xuan Bei was a little confused and scolded Lu Feng.
"How can you do this? The boatman placed me here so that he could send a message to Canhe Village.”
Lu Feng's heart sank, but he still smiled at Xuan Bei.
"Martial Uncle, don't panic. This boatman still doesn't trust me and Martial Uncle. In Taihu Lake, Murong Bo's kindness is like the Shaolin Temple's kindness to the tenants at the foot of the mountain.”
Then, he continued.
"If I am not wrong, I am afraid that before the two of us board the ship, our whereabouts will already be under the control of Benefactor Murong Bo. In this case, it doesn't matter where we stay tonight.”
Xuan Bei sighed after listening to Lu Feng's analysis.
"Senior Brother Abbot, I was supposed to bring you to see the martial world, but I didn't expect that my experience was not as good as yours. I'm really ashamed!”
When Lu Feng heard this, he stretched out his hands and waved them.
"Uncle-Master has defeated me!"
Just as Lu Feng continued to speak, he heard something and said to Xuan Bei.
"Someone is coming."
Then, their expressions returned to normal.
A little girl walked out of the manor. She was about the same age as Lu Feng. She wore a jade-green dress and looked like a pretty girl from a small family.
