Wang Xiu on the shore saw it clearly, and said with a smile at the moment: "Don't worry, the boatman is in a hurry, that's it, I can get on the boat." ”

As soon as the words fell, Wang Xiu jumped forward lightly, his breath was calm, and he jumped up like a big stride.

Wang Xiu immediately arched his hand to the boatman and the old man and said, "Thank you to the boatman, thank you for this old man who is willing to take me for a ride." ”

"This master is very skilled. The old man smiled and bowed his hand.

"Walking the rivers and lakes is destined to be a friend, Your Excellency has seen the outside, but where did the master's fancy dress come from?"

"Hehe, I'm not a monk, kid Wang Xiu, my family lived in seclusion in the ancient temple in the mountains decades ago, it's just that the clothes are a little weird, it's nothing, as for this hair, I just think it's so cool and convenient, so I cut it like this. ”

The old man has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and he has also seen strange people and strange things, and it is not strange at the moment, so he arched his hand.

"Escaping from the mountains? I see, that's the old man Meng Lang. ”

After greeting the old man for a while, Wang Xiu went straight into the boat, sat down in a clean place, and raised his head to ask the boatman.

"Boatman, I just came out of the mountains and want to go down the river to Yangzhou, I don't know if I can go by the way?"

When the old man heard the name of this place, his heart was tense and eclipsed.

The boatman shook his head and replied: "This is not good, we all have a charter for boats and meals, and we need a big boat to go so far, we can't do this, but I can take you to the crow's mouth below, and when I take you downstream tomorrow during the day, then there will be a big boat." ”

"Oh, that's right, well, I don't know how much the ship is, I don't have any change in hand, there is a gold leaf here, I don't know if I can find it. Wang Xiu casually took out a thin gold leaf, weighing about 6.6 grams, which was the money that Wang Xiu specially prepared when he knew that he might travel to the ancient world this time.

"This, the guest is too valuable, but I can't find it. The boatman shook his head and refused, and said: "It's better like this, it's getting late, the guests go ashore after the crow's mouth, there are shops and shops, just buy and sell some food and exchange it for some broken silver, you can send it again, I don't want you more, just count the money for the boat that will go downstream tomorrow and give two pieces of silver." ”

Wang Xiu didn't know the money of the Qing Dynasty in this era, but he knew that one tael of gold was equal to ten taels of silver, and one tael of silver was equal to ten taels of silver. A penny of silver, about 100 yuan, almost 100 yuan.

One tael of silver is equal to 1,000 pieces, and ten taels are equal to ten thousand pieces.

This gold leaf is equal to more than 60,000 pieces in hand.

When the boatman said this, he also glanced at the other boatman in the boat with mysterious eyes, obviously having bad intentions, and the old man on the side saw it seriously.

This kid has just come out of the rivers and lakes, how come he hasn't heard the truth that the elders' wealth is not exposed? The old man frowned slightly. Well, when he gets off the boat, let's remind him.

Pushing the boat down the river, all the way forward, soon it was already the time when the bright moon was hanging high, and at night, the boat docked on the shore of the crow's mouth.

When Wang Xiugang wanted to get off the boat, he saw that the father and daughter had already set out their own wine and food, drinking each other at the bow of the boat, and only listened to the old man:

"Since Wang Xiu Xiaoyou is not a monk, if you don't dislike it, my little daughter Yingqiong has cooked some water and wine, why don't you come and drink a glass of water and wine. ”

Wang Xiu thought for a while, nodded, and said with a hearty smile: "Thank you old man, but I'm going to the town to buy some civilian clothes and exchange them for some broken silver." ”

Yingqiong?

After Wang Xiu finished speaking, his heart was shocked, could it be Li Yingqiong? It won't be wrong, this is the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and it is the Wuxia area, yes, it is not Luding Ji, but Shushan!

Wang Xiu's mind turned sharply.

No, you can't ask him about his identity here, otherwise it will be troublesome for the two of them to be wary, so let's go ashore first and then slowly think about rhetorical countermeasures.

At this time, the two boatmen on the boat had already gone ashore, and before they had gone far in the night, the two of them walked around the corner, and their faces turned fierce: "This old man is nosy, he seems to have seen something, should we kill him together?......"

"Look again, look again, that old man is not simple...... Okay, the fat sheep didn't listen to the old man's words, go, you follow, I'll call someone, and eat this fat sheep. ”

"Well, I don't know how many gold leaves this fat sheep still has on him, and he is so arrogant. ”

Wang Xiu got out of the boat, went ashore, and went to the lighted place of the town on the shore.

On the bow of the boat, the old man looked at Wang Xiu's back and sighed slightly: "This person has revealed his money, I am afraid that he will have to suffer some hardships when he goes ashore, and it is easy to say that he has lost his money, but he is afraid that he will lose his life." ”

"Dad, there's no way if that person doesn't listen to persuasion, that is, Dad kindly wants to remind him, and it's no wonder that others don't listen to him. ”

"Yingqiong, Dad just can't bear this young man's suffering...... No, he has kung fu in his body, which is not good, because of this, he is afraid that he will die. The old man thought a little far, he thought that it was Wang Xiu who had kung fu in his body, and he was afraid that he would be worried about his life when he was surrounded by people and resisted.

"Yingqiong, you wait on the boat, I'll go and save him. ”

"Yes, Dad. ”

Let's say that Wang Xiu went ashore, found a restaurant, ate some food, changed silver taels, and went to the clothing shop to buy two sets of middle-gauge Qing Dynasty clothes, and changed into a pair of thick-soled cloth shoes.

On the way back, passing by a dark alley, a group of five or six people with knives and sticks surrounded Wang Xiu, led by two boatmen.

Wang Xiu's face was slightly cold, and he frowned: "Boatman, what are you going to do." ”

The boatman at the head turned pale and raised the long knife in his hand.

"Boy, get acquainted, hand over the gold leaf, and spare your life. ”

On the other side, and said that the old man came ashore to save Wang Xiu, and not long after he walked ashore, there was a man in white in the woods in the distance who was far away, walking all the way, singing all the way, the tone was clear, and the gold stone could be cracked.

When the old man heard the song, he said, "This, this song...... Is it the third brother?"

At the moment, he shouted loudly: "But the third brother?!It's me!"

The man in white was shocked when he heard this shout, and he was overjoyed, and he came quickly, and the two hugged their heads and cried when they met.

"Big brother, I didn't expect to meet you here, the battle of Yangzhou, I heard that the eldest brother has turned into a foreign body, I didn't expect to meet in a foreign land......"

"The third brother lived, but I went ashore to save people, who would have thought that a moment of kindness would allow me to meet the third brother, you, go for a walk, first follow me to save the man. ”

"Yes, this person is an opportunity for you and my brother to meet, and we must save it. ”

Let's say that these two old brothers hurried towards the town quickly, and suddenly a voice came:

"Old man, where is this going, do you want Wang's help?"

"Are you alright?" said the old man.

Wang Xiu said with a smile, and said to the old man: "Thank you for the old man's concern, but I know that the two boatmen have bad intentions in their hearts, and I feel that their eyes are wrong before they go ashore. ”
