At the beginning of the game, I brought the cubs into exile, and I took the miserable husband to ove

Chapter 40.

I'm afraid he has already foreseen that this time it will not be so smooth. Thinking of this, Fu Yinong quickly thanked the fat chef, and then brought out the prepared breakfast.

For today's breakfast, Fu Yinong simply made a few bowls of shredded pork noodles. While eating the noodles, Fu Yinong told Chef Fat and Liu Xiong what Fu Xun had said. The chopstick noodles I picked fell into the bowl again.

Xiao Rongjin frowned.

"Dense fog would make people lose their way. If there is another strong wind at this time, the river will be choppy and the boat will be extremely dangerous."

And what he was even more worried about was that the killer who was chasing after him would probably take this opportunity to attack with all his strength.

Fu Xun sighed.

"If the route is transferred from water to land, it will take hundreds of miles for nothing, and the exiles will not be able to bear it, and the officials will not agree."

Worried about having breakfast, Fu Yinong directly tied Fu Xiaoxuan to his chest with cloth strips when he set off. Fu Xiaoxuan didn't cry or make trouble, he knew he didn't know how to lick water and couldn't cause trouble for his mother.

Fu Xun also followed Fu Yinong's method and tied Fu Yubai to his body. Although he didn't know how to swim, he found a wooden board at the post station. As for the inescapable.

Seeing what Fu Yinong and Fu Xun did, Liu Xiong nodded in agreement. Looking at the fifty or sixty exiles in front of him, he looked serious and yelled out what he had said before.

When the words fell, all the exiles turned pale with fright, because the big furniture was used to being on land, and they didn't know how to swim at all.

Fu Ruyi was frightened and tightly grabbed Fu Xun's sleeve.

"Dad, I'm scared."

Fu Ruyi has been afraid of water since she was a child. As long as there is water, she will not go there unless she can.

Fu Xun patted Fu Ruyi on the shoulder, and handed the board he was holding to Fu Ruyi.

"Ruyi, don't be afraid, hold this board carefully, if you really fall into the water, you won't be in danger holding on to the board."

Fu Ruyi was still too scared, she said pleadingly.

"Father, go and beg Captain Liu to change the way."

Fu Xun shook his head helplessly.

"If you go by land, you have to go around hundreds of miles. The delay will exceed the stipulated time. If you want to shorten the time later, you will have to travel several miles a day. Everyone will not be able to bear it."

When Fu Ruyi heard this, her heart suddenly went cold.

Some people are afraid, some are big-hearted, and some have a fluke mentality. Liu Xiong sees that he has already reminded him in place, and everyone has his own fortune. Resigned to fate.

As the team set off again, everyone felt extremely anxious. Most of them imitated the example and tied the child in front of them, holding a piece of driftwood in their hands. A small number of people thought that the officials' words were nothing more than scaremongering.

When we came to the ferry, we could see the fog on the river from a distance, and we could hardly see the shadow of the boat. There were a lot of passengers on the ferry, but there were very few boatmen to pick up the passengers.

"Master Liu."

As soon as the exile team approached, a boatman from the ferry immediately came to meet them.

"Elder Li."

Liu Xiong greeted him politely, he escorted exiles all the year round, and occasionally passed by here, after coming and going, he became acquainted with a boatman here.

An old man known as Mr. Li looked worried.

"Master Liu, the situation is not good these few days. The fog has been rising for less than half a month. I don't know when it will dissipate. There were people crossing the river before, and there were many accidents."

When Liu Xiong heard this, his brows were tightly frowned. He looked at the thick fog where he couldn't see his fingers, and sighed heavily.

"Elder Li, we have no choice. The time set by the imperial court is limited. If we arrive at the place of exile beyond the set time, we will not be able to bear the responsibility if we are questioned by the superiors."

This group of officials can only show off their prestige in front of the exiles, do the most tiring work, get the lowest salary, and accidentally risk their lives. If there is no other way out, who would do it? this.

Mr. Li also knew the embarrassment of these people, he thought about it, and said.

"Small boats dare not pick up passengers in such weather, but yesterday, a large passenger ship suddenly came to this ferry, which can accommodate hundreds of people, and said that as long as there are enough people, the boat can be sailed."

"So coincidentally?"

Liu Xiong felt very strange when he heard it.

"Hey, this is not a coincidence. Every year at this time, there will be big ships coming to solicit business, but this year, the big ships are bigger than usual."

What Mr. Li said was the truth, as long as you inquired a little bit, you would know that it was not a lie. Liu Xiong sent someone out to inquire, and Mr. Li was indeed not lying.

There are five to sixty people in their exile team, and there are only four small boats at the ferry, which is not enough at all. Now it seems that the only way to get on this big boat is safe and easy. Thinking like this, Liu Xiong sent people on the big boat again Contact the supervisor.

Everyone waited for a while before the six sons came over with the steward of the big ship.

"Guan Zhao, this is our Lord Liu."

The six sons brought him to Liu Xiong and introduced him.

Liu Xiong saw that the steward was slender, with shrewd eyes, and looked like a businessman, so he hurried up to meet him.

"Guan Zhao, I don't know if fifty or sixty exiles under my command can board the ship together."

"Master Liu, I have to charge one penny per person on this boat, are you sure they can afford it?"

"A penny? Why is it so expensive?"

Liu Xiong was surprised.

Zhao Guanshi pointed to the continuous thick fog on the river and said.

"Master Liu has also seen it. The fog has been shrouded in the past few days, and even small boats are afraid to accept business. My big boat is also at risk."

So, just wantonly slaughtering customers?

Liu Xiong was upset, but he had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

As a result, the exiles were shocked when they heard that one penny per person, everyone was dragging their families, and the asking price was too high. Usually, a dozen copper coins can cross the river, but now it is doubled. Soaring.

No matter how resentful they were, the exiles did not dare to have any objections, and just gritted their teeth and paid the river crossing fee.

When they got on the ship, they found that this large passenger ship had three floors, and there were people on each floor. The exiles were taken to the bottom of the cabin, and they were all locked up together. Only the officials stayed on the deck.

Liu Xiong originally planned to let Fu Yinong stay on the deck with him, but Manager Zhao disagreed. He was afraid that Fu Yinong's status as a convict would affect his business, so he had to give up.

The cabin was dark, and the exiles who were still nervous after seeing the strength of this passenger ship all put their hearts back in their stomachs.

Holding Fu Xiaoxuan in her arms, Fu Yinong sat near the exit, paying close attention to the movement on the deck with her spiritual sense, until the passenger ship slowly moved into the dense fog.
