Chapter 641: The River Wind is Boundless at Night
The wind was very strong, and the weather that had just been sunny for a day suddenly changed its face, and the large particles of snow hit the deck, making a dense sound, and the people in charge of the search returned to the cabin, and the ginger soup rolled into the throat with a spicy taste, so that the already cold body gradually warmed up. Bai Yan wiped off a drop of water, looked at the gloomy sky, sighed, and said, "Let Brother Qin order to go down, everyone must not go into the water again, this snowstorm is quite big, we have to find a way to get around this dangerous beach." ”
After he finished speaking, he looked at the fishermen huddled in the cabin, thought for a moment, put down the bowl and walked over.
Not long ago, two small fishing boats were found from the place where the boat passed, the surface of the boat was hit to a thousand holes, in the torrent ups and downs, someone on the boat called for help, they rescued more than ten people after the boat towed the ship closer, I heard that some people have fallen into the water, so everyone wrapped themselves in a long rope, into the water to find, but until the weather changed suddenly, only three people were rescued from the river, and one of them was no longer breathing.
"I think your companions can't be searched for anymore, the snowstorm is too big for this ship to stay here, we have to move forward. Bai Yan knew that saying this now would be tantamount to announcing the death of the person who fell into the water, but if he continued to stay, when the storm swept over, the three ships and the nearly 8,000 soldiers on the ship would also fall into a crisis, and the situation was dangerous, so he had to go.
Those fishermen knew that there was no possibility of survival for those who fell into the water under such bad weather, and then thought that everyone went in and out together, and fought for their livelihood together, but now those companions could not even find the corpses, and they couldn't help but feel sad, and the choked sound could not be suppressed, and suddenly there was a cry in the cabin, which made the people who saw it sad and those who heard it wept.
"Good life has settled them, and when they have passed the dangerous shoals safely, we will find a safe place to shore and let them return. Bai Yan turned around and ordered Nangong Rehe, and then walked out of the cabin.
Although the cold weather in the north is long, but the river will still be frozen and thawed around April, many fishermen who make a living from fishing will choose to enter the river to fish when the weather is better, but how can the weather change be predicted, from Lancang to Shifang Dark River has six narrow, even experienced old fishermen will have a time to miss, let alone under such a snowstorm. They are trying to survive with their lives, just to have a little more joy of harvest on the faces of their families when they return at night, so they take their own lives. The contrast between this poverty and hardship at the bottom and the joy of the eunuchs singing and dancing at night is so stark that it is suffocating.
"What are you looking at?" When he entered the door, he saw Flawless standing at the table looking at the white paper in a daze, Bai Yan sorted out his mood, squeezed out a smile, walked to Flawless and buried his head in his back, and asked angrily.
"Except for you and me and Xianyi, there are people who have come in this room. Flawless didn't blame him for his childishness, just looked at the paper carefully, and then reached out and picked up the top one.
"Maybe it's Nangong, maybe it's a bow. "Although the soldiers don't just enter this room, it's a different matter if the people are next to the two.
"There was ink on this paper, and someone used my pen and paper, but I don't know who it was and what it was written. ”
"Oh?" Bai Yan raised his head at this time, stretched out his arms from behind him and wrapped Flawless into his arms, resting his chin on his shoulder, looking at the white paper in his hand.
Indeed, it seems that the man did not take away the blank paper, but wrote something on the top one and took it away, but the ink was too heavy and left on the second sheet of paper through the back of the paper. After Bai Yan finished speaking, he saw that Wufang fell into deep thought, and couldn't help but smile slightly, rubbed his head towards his neck, and said in a low voice: "Don't think about it, say, today's medicine can be drunk." ”
Flawless was still thinking about things, and was tickled by his leaning out, and raised his voice between dodging: "Okay, what are you going to do with me again, it's better to go to Master Jane to see the route, but there is a problem, do you need to modify it, such a big person is still like a naughty boy, and he is not afraid of the soldiers under his command to see the jokes." After Wufang finished speaking, he reached out to break Bai Yan's hand, and then he realized that his fingertips were cold: "Why are your hands so cold?"
Bai Yan then stretched out his hand and stroked his cheek, and said with a straight face: "Suddenly there was a snowstorm, two fishing boats hit the reef and sank, everyone rescued more than a dozen people, and the rest ......" Seeing him shake his head, Flawless couldn't help but look gloomy, and after being silent for a long time, he said: "Have you settled all the people?" ”
"Let Nangong make arrangements, wait for this beach mouth, find a safe place, and let them get off the boat. ”
"The people are living in misery, and when they go back, they will have to face the families of those who have disappeared, Bai Yan-"
"Don't worry, I'll have people give them silver, but this man's life ...... And he never came back. ”
The atmosphere was a little solemn in an instant, the hull of the ship shook, Bai Yan glanced back with some concern, and then said to Flawless: "You rest, I'll take a look." ”
"Be careful. Seeing Bai Yan pull the door and leave, Flawless turned back to look at the pen and ink on the table, he has his own habits of placing things on weekdays, ordinary people will not come in this room, and neither his people nor Bai Yan's people will have anything to write on the paper, so although this is just a tiny detail, it also makes him feel guilty in his heart.
After a slight knock on the door, it was pushed open, and Luo Yue walked into the house with a plate of small pastries.
"Childe tasted this, Uncle Li specially made it for Childe, Sister Xianyi's foot injury was not healed, so I robbed her of her work and sent it to Childe. Luo Yue walked to the table with a smile on his face and put the pastries away, and saw that the paper on the desktop was messy, so he started to tidy it up.
"Trouble Miss Luo, the storm is very strong today, so it's better for the girl to be careful not to walk casually. Flawless said and sat down at the table, reached out to twist the pastry, and when his eyes were rolling, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a slight ink mark on Luo Yue's elbow, he paused slightly, and then quietly put the pastry to his lips, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "Miss Luo has lived in Jianzhou for a long time, do you know that the empty Zen master of Jianzhou Changchang Temple is in good health?"
"Changchang Temple?" Luo Yue tilted his head a little puzzled, then the corners of his lips twitched, and said, "Is there such a place in Jianzhou? Why haven't I heard of it?" ”、
"Oh, come to think of it, I misremembered. Flawless chuckled and put the pastry back on the plate, then gestured for Luo Yue to sit down.
"Miss Luo talks decently, I think she should be literate and hyphenated, Xian Yi's girl is very arrogant on weekdays, and she has less rules in her daughter's family, so she has to learn more from Miss Luo in the future. ”
"Where did Childe say, Luo Yue was terrified, Childe has only learned people, Sister Xianyi is beside her and is edified, naturally a hundred times stronger than me, in front of Childe, how dare Luo Yue get an axe. ”
Flawless smiled when he heard this, stood up and picked up the pen and ink resting on the inkstone.
“…… Disloyal...... Righteousness. ”
Words are like flowing water, all in one go. Luo Yue read the two words written flawlessly in his mouth, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. Was he hinting at himself? Could it be that he had discovered something? But he couldn't see anything different......
"Loyalty, virtue is also good, wholeheartedly, can always be unremitting in place, but what to do must be based on righteousness, righteousness, need to be fair and reasonable, not to their own selfish desires and disregard for the common people, many things have their two sides, if it endangers the interests of the majority of people or even their lives, then, sacrificing the ego to become righteous is the character that a loyal person should have. ”
Luo Yue already had apprehension in her heart, she didn't know what the purpose of Flawless's words was, because she thought that she had been very careful, and she had never acted in front of everyone to attract attention, but she was really unsure whether Flawless's words were intentional or unintentional, or whether they meant something else at all.
"Luo Yue is dull, what Childe said seems to understand or not, I really can't answer, the pastry is almost cold, Childe should eat it quickly, I will come over to bring water to Childe to freshen up in a while. After Luo Yue finished speaking, she hurriedly retreated, and only when she went out of the door and turned over the corridor wall did she exhale slightly, looked back, and saw that Flawless did not follow, so she leaned against the wall and closed her eyes.
It's strange, he is obviously smiling, but his faint words seem to reveal an inexplicable coldness, is he warning himself......?
Hurriedly looked down at the clothes on her body, and when she didn't see anything unusual after checking it, Luo Yue raised her wrist and wiped the corners of her eyebrows, and then, she saw the small ink marks on her wrists.
His eyes were stunned, and then he turned his wrist to take a closer look, Luo Yue's heart sank, and then he looked back at the way he came again.
He had written a note with the pen and ink on his desk in the afternoon, and that note was now on Liu Xing's body, and he was suspicious of himself at the moment, would he tell the little Marquis Meng to order a search for the ship? Liu Xing was still on the ship, and he must not let his identity be exposed.
What can be done to delay time?
Luo Yue lowered his head and thought for a while, then turned around and went straight to the dining room.
Flawless sat in the room for a while, and saw that the hull of the ship was very turbulent, and couldn't help but be a little worried about Bai Yan, so he got up and took the cloak and was about to pull the door out.
"Childe be careful!" exclaimed that it was still in his throat, Luo Yue fell into the house, and when he looked up, he didn't see the tragic scene, the copper basin fell to the ground with a clatter, and the hot water spilled all over the ground, but the person who was still in front of him had disappeared. Luo Yue was a little dazed, she looked up to look around, but suddenly someone helped her arm from behind, and then stood up passively.
"It's so hot, my clothes are wet, hurry back and change, just let someone else clean it up here." The flawless voice sounded in his ears, Luo Yue's eyes widened in surprise, and the moment he turned around, he couldn't help but subconsciously take a step back.
How did he get away with it?
"Luo Yue was clumsy and almost hurt his son, please forgive him. Luo Yue was really shocked, she never realized that the person in front of her had such skills, because when she saw him, he always seemed to be drinking medicine, and he was coughing all day long, and his appearance and Yingruo's figure always made people feel that he was the weak Fuliu, and how did he know that he had hidden kung fu!
"It's okay, you go, I've called someone. Flawless said lightly, and then didn't stop, leaving Luo Yue and going straight to the upper deck. Luo Yue stood in place for a long time before he glanced back at the messy ground, then crossed his heart, stepped into the room, grabbed pen and ink and quickly wrote a few words.
The boy in plain clothes, cinnabar between his eyebrows, his identity is doubtful.
When she finished writing, she hurriedly tugged it into her cuffs, and then flashed out the door, and a person stood quietly at the corner of the stairs not far away, watching her departing back without saying a word.
