When Tang Shuai said this, he took a deep breath and said: "After we landed on the beach, we have been wandering on the river beach. No matter how we ran, it was pitch black and we couldn't see anything clearly. The people around us also became more and more mature.

There were fewer and fewer people coming, and only the four of us were left. I originally thought it was over this time, but unexpectedly, I saw a glimmer of light. We ran as fast as we could to where there was light, and finally, we saw you."

"Oh!" Xie Bangui said, "You said Taoist Master Kongjian was beaten ashore? Did you see clearly?"

"It's very clear! He's not far from me." Tang Shuai affirmed: "I can even hear clearly what the ghost said to him."

Kong Jian Taoist Master suddenly said angrily: "Master Xie, what do you mean? Do you suspect that Pindao is colluding with that ghost?"

"No!" Xie Bangui said calmly: "I just feel strange, why didn't the ghost pull you into the water, but hit you to the shore?"

Kong Jian was furious and tore open the Taoist robe: "Is it possible that the palm behind the poor Taoist is fake?"

"I'm sorry." Xie Bangui cupped his hands and said, "I've been working as a detective for a long time. I want to doubt everything. Taoist priest, don't mind."

Kong Jian Taoist Master was still reluctant and said: "Speaking of doubts, Pindao actually thinks Mr. Xie is more suspicious. Why did you attack my disciple in the official way?"

"If we don't take action, we're waiting to be killed by ghosts!" Fatty Gao also got angry: "Those two people were already dead when they flew over. If we don't take action, aren't we waiting to be attacked by someone? Are they still famous in the world?

Why can’t you figure out four, five and six?”

"You dare to humiliate Pindao?" Kong Mingteng stood up.

Lao Qian hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Taoist Master, calm down. Mr. Gao is used to being reckless. Why should you get angry with him? I apologize to you on his behalf."

"Humph!" Kong Jian snorted and sat back.

Fatty Gao wanted to scold him again, but Xie Bangui grabbed his arm. The whole place fell into an awkward silence.

It was Lao Qian who broke the silence: "Brother Xie, what should we do now?"

Xie Bangui said: "Go to Tangmen next. Tell everyone to pack their things and rush to the nearest guardhouse as soon as it gets light. This time we will take the military route."

"Taking the military route is one way to go. It's also safer." Lao Qian said, "I'll let Zhongsan make the arrangements."

"Wait." Xie Bangui stopped Zheng Zhongshan and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zheng Zhongshan's eyes widened and he asked, "Is this possible?"

Lao Qian angrily rebuked: "Master Xie's words are my words. You can do whatever he arranges. How can there be so much nonsense?"

"Yes!" Zheng Zhongshan walked down mysteriously with several Vulcan Guardian Gods, and no one knew what he had done.

However, Mei Xin'er lowered her voice and asked Fatty Gao: "What is the Tao of Soldiers?"

"The military road and the official road are actually the same road, but the way they go is different." Fatty Gao explained: "We have guard posts in every county and city in the Ming Dynasty. The military households in those guard posts usually do nothing but farm work.

In addition, another task is to raise horses. Once there is a war, as long as the size of the army is not large, you can walk along the guard station and change horses anytime and anywhere. In this way, the speed can be about 30% faster than usual."

"This is not the most important thing." Xie Bangui said: "The most important thing is that in order to prove the identity of the knight, the guard will put a small flag behind the horse to represent the guard post they passed. This kind of 'sending flag'

'It is often not replaced for dozens or even hundreds of years. I don't know how many heroes and generals have been sent away. The military power and evil spirit on the flag last for a long time, and ghosts and gods avoid it. It will be much safer if we take the flag of sending soldiers away.

.”

"So that's how it is?" Mei Xin'er suddenly realized, "Then why didn't you take the military route before?"

Xie Bangui said thoughtfully: "I didn't expect it would be so troublesome before! Forget it, let's not talk about this, we are on our way."

Xie Bangui was wearing the Jinyiwei badge. Not only was there no one to stop him when he wanted to take the military route, but on the contrary, he was treated with high standards. In just one day, they traveled nearly three hundred miles. In the evening, they checked in along the road as planned.

River camp.

The chief officer of the river camp respectfully let Xie Bangui into the big tent and laid out a banquet: "Your Excellency, it's been a long journey. We don't have anything decent here, but the river fish is quite good. Please try it."

Xie Bangui frowned and said, "The river is opened here?"

"No, no..." The chief officer of the river camp waved his hands and said: "The river has opened a long time ago. We diverted the water to raise these fish. They have not been fed anything. They are guaranteed to be clean."

The purpose of eating river fish is that the fish has a clean belly. The raised fish has naturally eaten and cannot taste fresh food. The chief officer even thanked the half-ghost who was dissatisfied, and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Xie Bangui was not a member of the officialdom, so he naturally did not care what he was thinking, and asked directly: "You have been in Heying for a long time, have you seen any ghost boats on this river?"

"I've heard of it! But I've never seen it." The chief officer said, "Older people often talk about this kind of thing, but how many of them can we actually encounter it?"

Not long after he finished speaking, there was a burst of firecrackers coming from the direction of Daying Pier. The chief officer of Heying was startled, and he suddenly asked displeasedly: "What's going on?"

The camp soldier reported: "There is a ghost ship outside."

"Fart!" The chief officer of Heying yelled in anger: "Don't you see Lord Qianshi here? What are you talking about?"

"Go out and have a look!" Xie Bangui stood up and strode towards the Heying Pier. Far away, he saw a few veterans carrying firecrackers and staring nervously at the river. An old ship in great decay,

He was slowly approaching along the direction of the water towards the pier.

Tang Bing, who was walking behind, couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ghost ship! It's coming!"

Tang Shuai glared at the other party: "Don't panic, Sir Xie is here!"

Xie Bangui ordered the soldiers nearby: "Find a way to drag the ghost ship to the shore. You don't need to let it enter the camp, just get it to the shore."

"Sir...Sir...this...this is unlucky!" The soldier was so frightened that his legs became weak, and he said earnestly: "The elders have said that when a ghost ship docks, people will be taken in. In addition to setting off whips and drinking wine,

It’s being delivered outside and you can’t touch anything!”

Xie Bangui looked at the chief officer of Heying without saying a word. Although that man really didn't want to touch the ghost ship, but Jin Yiwei Qian had spoken out about it, how dare he not move? He could only bite the bullet and scold:

"Sir, just do whatever you are told. Why is there so much nonsense? Hurry up and call a few people over. Who dares not to listen to you carefully?"

The soldiers had no choice but to call a few veterans, use their flying claws to hang on the gang of the boat and drag the ghost ship to the shore. As soon as the ship docked, the soldiers stayed away like the god of plague.
