Chapter 369 Plank Road
This is the communication code between them.

When Qi Er over there heard the whistle, he got excited and immediately responded, and then he answered the signal.

"It's our own people." Ah San sneered at Qi Er inwardly, and then said to Eggy that it was difficult to walk in the mountains at night, and they were their own people, so they took out the fire pockets to light the way forward with peace of mind.

A group of people walked out of the mountain forest, the sky outside had already turned pale, a little light was enough to make them happy, and there was also Qi Da who came to welcome them.

Qi Da saw that they were safe and sound, and asked Qi Er to take care of the others. He first went to Hedong Academy to report that they were safe.

In Qingzhou, with the cooperation of Princess Ning and the people sent by the emperor, Pei Songzhi rescued Prince Murong Bo of Yan State and Princess Murong Xue of Yan State.

Only two people were rescued, and there was nothing they could do for the others.

Even if they are the targets of those people, Pei Songzhi has already mastered the method of avoiding the pursuit of those ghosts, but even so, it is not easy to leave Qingzhou.

The roads leading to Tongzhou were strictly guarded, and there seemed to be no other way but to break through.

But there are heavy soldiers in the checkpoint, if they just need to take care of themselves, they can make a breakthrough, if they can't hurt Murong Bo and Murong Xue, it is the worst plan to force them.

Pei Songzhi still didn't give up, and wanted to see if there was a possibility of breaking the checkpoint.

From a distance, I watched a carriage arrive at the checkpoint, but the two of them were interrogated and finally stopped.

Pei Songzhi looked at the young man driving the carriage and didn't find anything wrong. He didn't expect to be stopped like this. It seems that King Ning intends to completely cut off the connection between the counties south of Qingzhou and Yanjing.

Qingzhou is very powerful, as long as they bypass Qingzhou, they will be safe. Pei Songzhi sighed, and looked back in a strange way, but he saw a familiar face, Zhou Wa.

It's just that Zhou Wa is very old at this time, and I don't know if he still recognizes himself.

After thinking twice, Pei Songzhi followed quietly.

It wasn't until they stopped at a ruined temple that Pei Songzhi showed up, tapped the young man's acupuncture points, and asked Zhou Wa, "Mr. Zhou still recognizes me?"

"You are..." Zhou Wa was terrified for a moment, looked at him, but didn't recognize him, but knew that he was not malicious and had something to hide, so he didn't say anything.

"What's up with him?"

"Just passed out."

Pei Songzhi thought that Zhou Wa recognized him, but he didn't, and he was still asking about his identity.

"Is the old man's crutch comfortable to use? At the beginning, I said it would be more appropriate to give the crutch." Pei Songzhi touched the crutch in his hand and said softly.

"You are." Zhou Wa was very excited, but he didn't say his name.

The checkpoints are heavily guarded and the common people are not allowed to leave Qingzhou, which is probably related to their entry into Qingzhou.

It is true that there was a flood in Qingzhou. He took the money Du Guangxi gave him back to Qingzhou, but unfortunately the broken silver was robbed on the way. Fortunately, he also hid a silver ticket in his body, which was barely enough for the Du family to tide over the difficulties.

It's just that when he wanted to leave, he couldn't go back. He fell ill in a hurry. He thought it was just a temporary thing, but he didn't expect to come here at this moment and he was still not allowed to leave. He didn't know if he had a chance in his life Take another look at the master.

When he learned of Pei Songzhi's identity, Zhou Wa suddenly felt hopeful again.

"Can you take me back to Jincha Town?" Zhou Wa couldn't hide his excitement and asked. He already regarded Jincha Town as his second hometown, the place where fallen leaves return to their roots.

"Actually, this is exactly what I want to ask you. The imperial court has strict control over tea. I heard that most tea merchants have their own plank roads. I wonder if Mr. Zhou can tell you a thing or two?" Pei Songzhi was silent for a moment, and then asked straight to the point .

Zhou Wa's eyes widened. This was one of the reasons why he hoped to return to Du Guangxi's side sooner. He walked the plank road once to save Du Guangxi's life.

At that time, he was unconscious and didn't know the location of the plank road. Zhou Wa looked at Pei Songzhi, knowing that once the plank road was made public, it would lose its meaning of existence.

The plank road is an opportunity for tea merchants to make money and survive, Zhou Wa lowered his head, "Why do you ask this?"

"In order to save people, yes, right, please let me know, old man, there will be a lot of rewards in the future." Pei Songzhi said respectfully.

"Forget it, forget it. If it were someone else, I wouldn't say it, but since you asked about it, I'll tell you for your wife's sake." Zhou Wa sighed.

Although he knew about the existence of the plank road, he was too old and weak to walk, and he had no one to trust in Qingzhou, so it didn't matter now.

Now that he has decided to tell him, the plank road is no longer a secret and can no longer be used, Zhou Wa looked at Pei Songzhi, "Can you bring me, a useless person?"

"Of course." Pei Songzhi was overjoyed.

Zhou Wa paid Ah Niu and left a note and his belongings, asking him to set up a tomb for himself here, so that he would not go back to Du's house, and told him not to ask anyone to worship him.

"We can go." Zhou Wa said to Pei Songzhi after finishing all this.

"The old man is careful." Pei Songzhi smiled and took him back.

After returning, Pei Songzhi told others about the plank road. When they heard that he was able to take them out of Qingzhou, they were no longer passively hiding. They were very excited.

It's just that when they saw the winding path hidden in the dense forest, everyone couldn't laugh anymore.

This is not the most difficult thing. If you want to go back to Tongzhou, you have to climb mountains and ridges, step over suspension bridges and plank roads, and pass through cliffs. If you are not careful, you may fall into the abyss.

Zhou Wa led the way in the front and told them in advance what to pay attention to every time they had to experience new difficulties.

He walked this path, now that he is old, he needs other people to support him, and sometimes he needs them to carry a distance, barely holding others back.

But Murong Bo and Murong Xue had never been in such a mess before, and they secretly complained in their hearts.

Murong Bo is the prince of a country, but he has endured all the hardships he should have suffered since he was a child. Although the plank road is difficult now, although he walks in a bit of a mess, he doesn't show it.

Murong Xue was different, she was pampered and brought up, how could she have endured such hardships, she even felt that she might as well stay in Biezhuang, since King Ning would not dare to do anything to her anyway.

All the hardships of her life are here, after coming to Wei country, all kinds of troubles made her lose her temper from time to time.

If it weren't for Pei Songzhi, she would have wanted someone to carry her through here.

"Ah!!!" Murong Xue looked at the worm hanging in front of her eyes, and couldn't help crying out, but her voice was weak.

"What's the matter?" Qingsong rolled his eyes, he was not as hypocritical as she was with Zhou Wa on his back, he stopped there motionless, she was not tired, he was tired.

"Princess, please." Pei Songzhi turned his head and used a branch to push the bug aside, letting Murong Xue pass by.
