Chapter 591 Crossing the River

"You're still not sleepy?" Wu Fan said, "Okay, stop being stubborn, go to the carriage and rest, whether you're sleepy or not, come over and give me your seat."

"Master, I..." Luo Yang still wanted to insist.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is an order!" Wu Fan said with a straight face.

"Yes, Master." Seeing Wu Fan's seriousness, Luo Yang quickly agreed.

So, Wu Fan sat in the driver's seat, and Luo Yang went into the carriage to rest. Wu Fan was not unfamiliar with driving a carriage. He had learned horse riding from Zhou Shan before, and could control various means of transportation and increase stability, so he was more stable than Luo Yang when driving a carriage.

"It's not bad to practice horse riding by the way." Wu Fan thought to himself.

"Aren't you sleepy?" Wu Fan drove for about ten minutes, and Wu Ya came out of the carriage and sat in his "co-pilot" seat.

"You're still embarrassed to ask." Wu Fan said.

"I'm sorry, I was too impatient." Wu Ya apologized.

In the carriage, Luo Yue and Luo Yang had already fallen asleep against the wall. Wu Ya knew that it was because she woke them up too early.

"Forget it, I understand your feelings." Wu Fan sighed and said, "I'm fine, not very sleepy, but it's hard for them."

Through the gap in the door curtain, Wu Fan could see some of the situation in the carriage, knowing that Luo Yue and Luo Yang were probably asleep at this time.

"You are a good person." Wu Ya looked at Wu Fan and said suddenly.

"Why do you say that suddenly?" Wu Fan was slightly surprised.

"Before you said you would help me get out of the city, I didn't really believe you, after all, we didn't have any friendship, and even had a fight in the hall of the Yanfeng Kingdom Palace, but at that time, I had no other choice but to believe you. Now it seems that you are not lying to me." Wu Ya said.

"So you didn't believe me all the time?" Wu Fan said.

"I'm alone and in a foreign country, so I have to be on guard." Wu Ya said, "But from now on, no matter how you look at me, I will treat you as my most trusted friend."

"Good vision." Wu Fan praised.

Wu Ya rolled her eyes at Wu Fan and said, "In fact, from your attitude towards Luo Yue and Luo Yang, I can see that you are a good person. No wonder Luo Yue is so attentive to you and unwilling to leave you."

"Why are you so emotional today?" Wu Fan asked curiously.

"I just feel that at this moment, it is so rare to have someone around me who is trustworthy and willing to take risks to help me. I am so lucky." Wu Ya said.

Since her relatives were placed under house arrest and she had to accept the task of assassinating the old emperor of Yanfeng, Wu Ya has never relaxed in her heart, especially after the assassination failed and her family was killed, she was even more sad and desperate.

And the appearance of Wu Fan was like a bright light in the dark, giving her light and hope, and moving her heart deeply.

"Don't think too much, everything will be fine." Wu Fan comforted.

"Yes, everything will be fine!" Wu Ya nodded heavily.

Under Wu Fan's control, the carriage moved forward steadily and quickly, much faster than when Luo Yang drove it before.

At noon, the carriage stopped outside a pier.

"It seems that we have to find a boat to cross the river." Wu Fan stopped the carriage and looked at the wide river in front of him.

It's okay not to cross the river, but that means taking a detour, and the road conditions are not very good, the speed will be much slower, which is obviously not conducive to traveling, and the delay is not one or two days.

At this time, Luo Yue and Luo Yang also woke up. Luo Yang originally planned to take a nap for a while, but because he was too sleepy and Wu Fan drove the carriage very steadily, he fell asleep for a long time. He was a little embarrassed to wake up at this time.

"Luo Yang, go to the river to see if there are any boats." Wu Fan said to Luo Yang.

"Yes, Master." Luo Yang responded quickly and got off the carriage to go to the river to have a look.

"Let's get off the carriage and have a rest." Wu Fan said.

Wu Ya and Luo Yue nodded, and the three of them sat down under a big tree. Luo Yue took out cakes from the package. With Wu Fan, a master chef, there was no need to chew dry and hard food. Before leaving Yanyang City, Wu Fan prepared a lot of cakes for eating on the road.

"Wu Fan, I didn't expect you to have such a skill. The cakes are worse than those made by the imperial chef in our palace. Why don't you stay in our palace in Nanping and be an imperial chef in our Nanping? How about it?" Wu Ya said to Wu Fan while eating cakes.

"Not very good, I'm crazy if I give up the viscount of Yanfeng and the eighth-rank Xuanjie school lieutenant to be your cook." Wu Fan said speechlessly.

"I can also ask my brother to give you a promotion and title." Wu Ya said.

"Let's talk about it after dealing with those things." Wu Fan said.

Wu Fan would naturally not refuse the promotion. If Nanping Country handled things well and he was treated better in Nanping Country, he would not mind staying in Nanping Country. Anyway, he had no sense of belonging to Yanfeng Country. The only thing he was reluctant to leave was the people who followed him and the things in the back mountain of the Hermit Village.

Wu Ya nodded. Before the matter was settled, it was just empty talk.

Luo Yang came back soon.

"Master, there is a boat at the dock, but the boatman refused to take us to the other side. He said it was not suitable to cross the river today." Luo Yang said.

"It's not suitable to cross the river? Do you need to check the almanac to cross the river?" Wu Fan was speechless.

"That's what the boatman said. I persuaded him for a long time and promised to pay more, but he just didn't want to." Luo Yang said.

"What a weird guy, he doesn't want to make money?" Luo Yue said.

Wu Fan stood up, patted the pastry crumbs on his hands, and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Luo Yue and Wu Ya also stood up, packed up their things, and followed Wu Fan to the dock.

At the dock, everyone saw a boat. The boat was not too big, but it was still possible to ferry a few people and a carriage.

There was an old man wearing a bamboo hat on the boat, who was packing up and seemed to want to leave.

"Old man, we want to cross the river. Can you please take us there? We will pay." Wu Fan said.

"No, no." The old man waved his hand without looking back and said, "It's not suitable to cross the river today. If you want to cross the river, come back tomorrow."

"But we are in a hurry and can't wait until tomorrow." Wu Ya said, "Look, the weather is good, the wind is calm, why can't we cross the river?"

"If I say no, then no, I'm doing this for your own good. If you don't want to die here, come back tomorrow." The old man said.
