Chapter 214: Teacher
If it weren't for the fact that he was in such a dangerous situation at the moment, Gu Zhirong really wanted to take this young master back and study it to see what kind of physique he was, oh no, it should be said that to see how the detoxification function of his liver was so good, and even the "immortal drunk" couldn't work on him.
The young master vaguely felt that Gu Zhirong had something to say, and his sharp gaze swept over, of course Gu Zhirong would not expose himself, and hurriedly said: "I mean, my distant uncle is a scholar after all, where can he drink such strong wine?" Therefore, even if the altar of daughter red has been stored in the kiln for sixty years, this wine will only become more and more mellow, as for this concentration, of course, it will not increase..."
What she means is that the uncle is no better than a person who practices martial arts like the young master, and the wine he drinks will not be the kind of wine that is extremely strong and extremely high, so the young master is only drunk for half a day, which is very normal.
"Really?" said the young master leisurely, "why do I think that jar of wine is particularly delicious?"
Gu Zhirong's heart jumped differently, and he was busy showing him a big smile very innocently.
The old man was very surprised that these two people in front of him were at this time, and they could say other things. However, when he looked at the young master's eyes, his gaze was even more complicated, with surprise and more joy.
Seeing the old man's gaze on him, the young master's expression narrowed, and he immediately became serious, and quickly turned to the topic of Fang Cai: "The reason why I said that no one on this boat can see the rising sun tomorrow is because I specially went to the lower cabin of the ship to see it, and there was a cabin full of explosives. As soon as the ship caught fire, the entire ship would be blown to pieces. ”
Gu Zhirong was dumbfounded when he heard this. There's a whole bunch of explosives in the bilge? Aren't all those explosives bought for money?
The old man wrinkled his brows, but the movements in his hands did not stop, and he quickly poured all the chopped green onions into the pot. He said in a deep voice: "Have you found the fuse?"
The young master shook his head: "The design of this batch of explosives is very ingenious, as if it is to prevent someone from cutting the fuse, I searched for a long time, but I didn't find it." ”
Gu Zhirong couldn't help asking, "Who is this who wants to put us to death? Is it General Huang Gang Huang?"
The young master shook his head slightly: "I don't know either." However, after such a long time, Fanjiang is under the jurisdiction of General Huang, and there is no movement on his side, and he has not sent a naval army to rescue him. That can only mean one thing, that is, General Huang knew about this killing operation, and not only that. The warship you just saw is the Huang family's navy, and there is no possibility of being impersonated. ”
Gu Zhirong's face couldn't help but turn pale. Although the old man had come to the same conclusion, there was always a glimmer of hope in her heart, hoping that none of this was true. She preferred to believe that it was the work of the water bandits. She would rather believe that someone really pretended to be the Huang family water army to commit the crime, and at the same time, she also hoped that the famous Huang family water army could come to save them and save the trapped people...... Now it seems that her expectations have been shattered.
"What should we do?" This time, it was the old man who was asking the young master.
In the hall next to it, there was already an impatient voice from the bearded man: "Are the noodles ready?" ”
The young master lowered his voice and said quickly: "For today's plan, I want to deal with the three people in the hall first." Then lead the others into the hall one by one. Solve them one by one. We are running out of time, in the bilge. I heard the men whispering that when night fell and before they could find the two girls, they would blow up the whole ship, and that they would not catch anyone anyway, and would not allow anyone to slip out of their hands. ”
Nightfall?
Gu Zhirong looked outside through the window. After the tossing and turning, it was now past noon, and the night at the border in winter came very early, that is, they didn't have much time.
The old man pondered for a moment, and quickly made a decision: "Okay, let's act immediately, you go and get rid of the three people in the hall, and then I will quietly take them to take a small boat and escape from here." ”
In the Jokhang Kingdom, all large ships are equipped with several life-saving boats, and in case of danger, they can escape by these boats.
After finishing speaking, the old man realized that he still had one more thing to ask, so he said, "Those small boats, are they still there?"
The young master nodded: "Of course it is." Those people are now on the boat, and they are waiting for the night to fall, light a fire on the ship, and then escape in a small boat. ”
Gu Zhirong interjected: "If we solve these people together, won't this boat explode?"
The young master shook his head: "Impossible, after all, we don't know how many of them got on the boat, and how many people were responsible for lighting the fire." As long as one person slips through the net, it means that the ship has the possibility of exploding, and we must not take this risk. ”
After a pause, the young master said again: "I have ordered someone to release carrier pigeons to inform General Tong, presumably General Tong is rushing here at this time, but ......" He shook his head, "I'm afraid we can't wait." ”
"We save ourselves. Gu Zhirong said proudly, "Let's go our separate ways, and I am responsible for delivering noodles, so that everyone can eat and have the strength to escape." ”
As she spoke, she picked up the noodles in a bowl, and after five or six bowls, she placed them on a wooden tray and was about to walk out.
The young master stopped her: "You can send your noodles, don't be afraid of any sound you hear." ”
Gu Zhirong knew what he meant, and he was going to deal with the three people, so he hurriedly said, "No, you guys wait here for a while, and I'll go over first." I promise, as long as the three of them eat the noodles, they won't wake up in a quarter of an hour. ”
The young master wrinkled his brows, looked at her suspiciously, and his eyes quickly fell on the noodles: "You drugged it in?"
Of course, Gu Zhirong can't say that what I ordered is the kind of "immortal drunkenness" that I just ordered in your wine, she said, "Hmm...... Just let them fall asleep anyway. ”
She suddenly remembered something, turned to the old man and said, "Uncle, I think that among the three people, there is a young man who is still very kind-hearted, and after he is charmed, let's take him away as well." His sword was clean, not bloody, and deserved no retribution. ”
The old man was silent for a while, then nodded: "The girl is kind-hearted, okay, the old man has written it down." ”
Seeing Gu Zhirong's figure walking out of the kitchen and going around to the hall, the young master turned around and knelt down towards the old man: "The teacher is above, and the students can't recognize each other for some reason. ”
Wan Jiuling was startled, and hurriedly picked up the young master with both hands: "This can't be helped." Besides, I have left the capital, and now I am just a teacher in the countryside. ”
The young master's expression was solemn: "One day as a teacher, all day as a teacher, the student union will always remember the teacher's teachings." ”
Wan Jiuling smiled: "The people of the world come first, it seems that you have done it." ”
The young master stood solemnly beside Wan Jiuling, and lowered his eyes slightly: "How can you not remember?" That day, in the cold winter of Layue, the student was arrogant for a while, and said a word that was very disrespectful to the people of the world, and was immediately punished by the teacher to the palace wall, kneeling for two hours, and no one in the palace dared to intercede. Two hours later, the student's feet were almost frozen and almost destroyed. The queen mother ordered someone to bring wine and rub her kneecaps to save her legs. In the pain of the heart, the student finally realized the good intentions of his teacher. ”
Wan Jiuling looked at him, his eyes were full of relief, and said slowly: "You...... I was not disappointed. ”
At this moment, there were several "clanging" sounds in the direction of the hall, like the sound of someone falling to the ground. (To be continued......)
