A turbulent river roared and flowed into the distance. The yellow waves hit the stone walls on both sides and splashed countless transparent water droplets. The river was about ten meters wide. Standing on the shore, you could clearly see the abandoned tea stall opposite.

Only a bare iron cable remains of the suspension bridge that originally connected the two banks, and the rest is nowhere to be found.

The merchant rattled the iron chain, his expression gloomy. "Miss, I wanted to take a shortcut through the bridge, but when I got there, I found out that the bridge had been demolished by some jerk."

Lu Yun: "Then why don't you continue along the official road? It's only 500 miles from here to Kyoto. At your pace, you can get there in ten days at most."

The merchant shook his head. "It would take half a month to go by the official road without crossing the bridge, but only eight days by taking the shortcut. The young lady sent someone to buy a boat three days ago."

The water is so turbulent, can we use a boat? Lu Yun frowned. "How many people do you have now?"

Da Jia hummed, "Although there are only 7,000 people, each of them is an elite."

Lu Yun placed her hand on the iron chain and pulled with all her strength, but it didn't budge at all. It was very strong. There was only a bare stone pile left where another iron chain was fixed.

Lu Yun pondered for a moment and looked at Da Jia. "Although this river is not wide, the current is very fast. It is indeed possible to cross the river by boat, but it will take at least a day. And your boat has not arrived yet, so it will be delayed for at least another day. If you trust me, I have a way to help you cross the river."

Da Jia was half-believing and half-doubting. "Tell me about it?"

Do you think I'm stupid? Lu Yun narrowed her eyes and said, "If your young lady agrees to accept me into the military camp, I'll tell you. You should know that my method only takes one day."

Da Jia had no choice but to take his men back.

"Okay, I promise you." After listening to his subordinate's report, Lin Zhaoye nodded without hesitation. "Now you can speak."

Lu Yun had never expected her to be so straightforward. After a while, she said, "I need some ingredients and—ten steamed buns."

Lin Zhaoye agreed immediately, "Da Jia, you accompany Lu Wang. We can provide whatever we have. If you need more manpower, you can handle it yourself."

Da Jia responded in a deep voice.

After the two of them left the main tent, Lu Yun first walked around the military camp and found a hemp rope about 40 meters long and as thick as a child's arm, and another ordinary hemp rope about 40 meters long.

After hanging the rope on the horse's back, Lu Yun patted the dust off her hands and looked at him with a fiery look, "Brother Jia, where are my steamed buns?"

Da Jia led the group to the cafeteria, his expression full of confusion, "What do you need so many steamed buns for?"

After a moment, Da Jia's expression changed from confusion to a frown and finally to shock.

After finishing two plates of palm-sized steamed buns, Lu Yun touched her belly with a satisfied look. The food of the Lin family army was really good. She had never eaten steamed buns with such solid ingredients in all the days she had been away.

A roar came from my ear, "You actually finished eating it all?"

Lu Yun was very calm, "Yes, you saw it all." She had been fighting with you guys for the whole morning, so she must have been hungry.

Da Jia's expression cracked. He gestured with his arms towards Lu Yun, then towards his plate. "Where did you eat all that?" The kid ate ten coarse flour buns weighing half a pound in one go, one in a few bites!

You know, he can only eat two at most!

Lu Yun gave him a look that said, "You're surprised by what you've seen." "Actually, I only ate until I was ninety percent full."

Dajia: "——"

"Let's go, let's go." Da Jia quickly stood up and drove everyone out of the cafeteria.

Lu Yun's eyes scanned the surroundings, finally landing on a tent not far from the main tent. "Is that the barracks for the personal guards?"

Dajia looked alert and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Lu Yun chuckled and said, "I just wanted to borrow something from you." Of course, she might not be able to return it after using it.

Da Jia suspiciously led people to the barracks for himself and his brothers. There were ten beds neatly placed in the tent, with beddings on the beds, but the smell was a bit unpleasant.

Lu Yun walked to the bed, then pulled back the quilt to reveal the wooden board underneath, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What are you doing?!" Da Jia looked at the mess on the couch, his nostrils almost smoking with anger. "You're lifting someone's blanket for no reason, what a mean act!"

Lu Yun chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I'll overturn every one of them." As soon as the voice fell, her figure disappeared like lightning. Then Da Jia saw the brothers' bedding, pillows and some unknown objects of strange colors flying all over the sky.

A pink handkerchief fluttered and landed accurately on someone's head. After quickly stuffing the handkerchief into his arms, Da Jia's eyes wandered around. Whose bed did this handkerchief fly out from?

Look at the purse, jade pendant and even - a red bellyband on the ground?

Lu Yun was very satisfied after successfully selecting twenty wooden boards about one foot wide and one meter long from the bed. She picked out two sheets and divided the wooden boards into two piles and tied them up. She picked up one pile with each hand and strode away leisurely.

Who would believe that the wife of the Crown Prince of Nanyue disguised herself as a man and ran into the famous Lin family army camp and overturned the beds of ten men?

He actually walked away like nothing happened! Da Jia was immediately furious, thinking to himself, I'm sorry, brothers! He kicked those "eyesore" things under the bed, including the one in his arms, and then left.

Fortunately, Lin Zhaoye's personal soldiers were all training in the training ground at this moment, and no one noticed the movement here. The soldiers guarding the gate had received orders long ago, so they pretended not to see the young man moving things back and forth.

Da Jia rushed over and saw the young man, who had just finished making trouble, walking towards the training ground with a normal expression.

"What else do you want?" Dajia was sweating profusely. "What else do you need? I'll get it!"

"Okay." Lu Yun stopped and smiled. "I want five stone locks weighing 20 kilograms each, for a total of 100 kilograms. Or one 20-kilogram lock and one 80-kilogram lock would be fine."

Da Jia gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

Holding five twenty-jin stone locks and facing the strange looks of the crowd, Da Jia walked out with his head held high.

Lu Yun was waiting outside the training ground. She reached out and took four of them, as if they were four steamed buns, which looked light and airy.

"Hurry up, I have to build the bridge before the sun sets." Lu Yun glanced at the sun that had already passed overhead, quickened his pace, and finally his fast walk turned into a jog.

Looking at the lonely stone lock in his arms, Da Jia began to doubt his life. How could this man run with a load of 80 kilograms without getting red in the face or out of breath?

I don’t know what this big brother was thinking about. Lu Yun hung two stone locks on the horse’s back and carried the remaining three himself.

It’s no use letting Dajia lead the horse in front while I follow behind. “Now we can go to the river.”

After an incense stick of time, Lu Yun stood on the shore again, unloaded all the things on the horse's back to the side, took out the thickest rope and tied it to a stone lock.

Da Jia followed the instructions and used the remaining rope to tie the remaining four stone locks.
