Chapter 62: Destroying the Bandits
Although everyone still has some doubts, there is hope that it is much better than the desperate situation at this time. Even Yin Luo, who is the most inconspicuous to Yin Nuan on weekdays, also had burning eyes, and said to him impatiently:
"If you have a way, you can say, who will not be able to live with their own lives?"
Yin Xin said with some suspicion: "Yin Nuan, are you sure it is feasible?
Song Yuanyi also looked at him with some surprise, after all, she also thought that the current situation was really at the end of the road - as soon as the rain stopped, the robbers would come back, and there would be no way to live. However, she had heard of this Yin family Golangjun before that he was smart and brilliant, and if he could really survive at this time, it would be reasonable to think about it.
Yin Nuan glanced back at the water slave, and saw that she nodded to herself smiling almost invisibly, so she smiled back, turned around and continued:
"The servant had already ordered someone to go down the boat in the rain to see it, because of this heavy rain, the water level had risen rapidly, and the bottom of the boat was almost free from the wood, and it only took a little manpower to continue driving. ”
"How about that?" Yin Luo asked, "Even if our boat can go, those bandit boats are even lighter, so why don't they catch up?"
Yin Nuan said: "Indeed, the boat is light and easy to hide. ”
Then he explained it again, and finally everyone understood what he meant.
Yin Luo thought for a while and retorted: "Your method is not bad, but there is one thing I don't agree with. ”
"What is the opinion of the fourth sister?"
Yin Luo said: "I have no problem with putting straw on the boat to light a fire, but I heard that oil can float on the surface of water, wouldn't it be better if it was used as a guide?"
Yin Nuan frowned: "Fourth sister, even if the fire water bandits get on the boat, they can't escape." But if oil is used as a guide, and the fire floats on the water, and it goes down with the boat, will it not hurt the innocent?"
The Yin family ship is large, and there are many flammable things such as curtains and wood on the ship, which can ignite a fire and make people unable to escape as long as they need to be cleverly arranged and used a little firewood as a guide.
And if the oil is poured around the boat - Yin Nuan thought the same way at first, and then he thought that once the fire was lit, it would be overwhelming, and if the ship sank, the fire would still not be extinguished or even spread wider, not to mention that the people on the boat had nowhere to escape, even the passing boats and even the fish swimming in the water were also affected, it was really ruthless, so he changed the way.
"What are you afraid of?" Yin Luo said sarcastically, "Aren't we upstream, are you still worried that this fire will come back and burn you?"
"I also agree with Ah Mei. Yin Xin said, "You have also seen the ferocity of the water bandits, if they really leave a way to retreat and make a comeback, a group of us will not be able to ask for benefits." ”
Yin Nuan saw that everyone looked in agreement, and after thinking about it, he didn't speak again.
Everyone waited anxiously for a while, and Yin Luo didn't know how many times she asked Yin Nuan impatiently:
"Is it okay?"
Yin Nuan still stared at the sky outside the window, and did not reply when she heard the words: "Fourth sister, please be patient and wait a little longer." ”
After a while, Yin Nuan finally turned around and ordered:
"Put all the boats down. ”
Everyone looked up and saw that the rain outside the window was still flooding, no different from just now, but at this time there was no other way but to believe, so they all kept silent.
As soon as a dozen small boats were put down, the rain really eased a little, and the wind gradually stopped. Yin Nuan commanded:
"Get off the boat!
When the people heard this, they obeyed as if they had been commanded. Although Yin Luo Yin Xin was unwilling, she also knew that this was not the time to speak, so she braved the rain to get off the big boat and the small boat with the support of other slaves.
Yin Nuan stayed on the boat to arrange a qiē, and ordered a few servants with good water character to dive to the bottom of the boat to standby, and only then did he and Yin Ying, the water slave Ayuan, who was waiting on the side, and the two slaves go to a small boat.
When a few people got into the boat, they saw a small boat that had been parked on the side, and the people inside were blocked by the canopy and couldn't see who it was. It wasn't until the boat on Yin Nuan's side began to row that the boat on that side began to move.
I paddled up the current for a while, until I paddled into the reeds and walked forward for a while. The reeds are dense and very high, and the small boat is completely invisible from the direction of the big ship, but the movement of the big boat can be seen from the direction of several people.
Yin Nuan whispered and Yin Ying explained:
"There are fewer boats on the Su River, so it shouldn't hurt the innocent. ”
Yin Ying nodded, signaling that she understood. He is not a person who can't see the shape clearly, planting evil causes and eating evil effects, and how the water bandits end up is a cycle of cause and effect. Besides, even if he said anything at that time, the Yin Xin brothers and sisters couldn't listen to it.
The other boat, which had been following the boat, also rowed steadily into the reeds, and when the two boats were wrong, they finally saw the situation inside.
Unlike the servants who thought they were guards, in addition to the five or six domestic servants, there was one person sitting among them, but it was Song Yuanyi, the lady of the Song family, who was worried about Yin Nuan and the others, so she was not good at leaving first, so she waited in the small boat until they got on another small boat before following behind.
Seeing a few people looking at him, Song Yuanyi turned around and smiled at Shui Nu and the others, and pointed to the depths of the reeds to signal him to go first. Then the boat drifted away until it was hidden deep in the reeds and could no longer be seen.
Ah Yuan looked back at the direction of the big ship in the distance, and muttered to the water slave:
"This Song family lady is quite interesting. ”
The water slave smiled and didn't reply.
About a quarter of an hour later, the sound of gongs and drums sounded again, and more than a dozen small boats came quickly, from far and near, and finally stopped in front of the Yin family's big ship. Then the big boat shook suddenly, and it began to sway down the river.
From the position of Yin Nuan and the others, it can be clearly seen that those small boats are approaching the big ship quickly, and at this time, there is no heavy rain to obstruct them, and dozens of water bandits quickly climb onto the big boat like walking on the wall. The tide rises and the boat goes down the river at an astonishing speed.
"Ah Ying, it's now. ”
The servants who followed a few people had already handed over the prepared arrows to Yin Ying. Yin Ying raised his hands, and the arrow from the string went away with a "boom" around a ball of firelight, and finally landed steadily on the big ship, and then the firelight spread from the point to the surface. I heard a terrible cry, and the ship was already drowned in the raging fire.
The heavy rain stopped completely, the thick clouds gradually dispersed, and the threat and fear that had been bothering everyone for a long time gradually faded away with the light of the fire, until it disappeared from everyone's sight.
Yin Ying pursed her lips tightly, sat cross-legged on the splint, folded her hands, and watched the direction in which the big ship disappeared without blinking.
At first, Yin Luo insisted on letting Yin Nuan's servant stay on the boat as the one who lit the fire, but everyone knew that it was a life-for-life mission. And if you want Yin Nuan to indicate who to let die, then it is better to let him stay by himself. In the end, before Ah Yuan stopped the water slave and planned to recommend himself, Yin Ying took the initiative to take over the task in the surprised eyes of Yin Luo and others.
After a while, there were voices around the area, and people who had escaped death gathered around the warm boat.
