Chapter 261: The Black Ship
"Do you have flowers on my face?" Chu Yunsheng glared angrily at Yu Shenyuan, who was startling him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, the latter seemed to have no self-awareness, and the corners of his mouth moved, and there was a beautiful thrilling smile, and he said: "Is it a peach blossom in the face?"
When he said this, he was full of brilliance, with three points of ruffianism and three points of teasing, and Chu Yunsheng became more and more angry when he saw it, but it was only in the blink of an eye, she suppressed the anger in her heart, and only glared at him again and didn't bother to bother with him anymore.
The rooms in the cabin were not well insulated, and it was supposed to be bright when footsteps could be heard from time to time above their heads in their room.
Chu Yunsheng didn't have the heart to sleep anymore, turned her head to look at the quilt that was still tightly wrapped, she stood up and stretched, tied her hair casually, tidied up her clothes and walked out with steps, all the way to the deck, only to find that it was already morning, and the underside of the ship was not breathable or light, so she didn't even know the time.
Stepping on the deck, facing the gusts of sea breeze with a fishy smell blowing on his face, Chu Yunsheng only felt refreshed, the discomfort of seasickness before has now decreased a lot, and a group of people on the deck who couldn't see clearly last night also met Chu Yunsheng's eyes at this time, all of them are ordinary people, there are strong men wearing patches, and there are women with children, everyone's faces are shrouded in the early morning mist, and they can't see clearly, but the solemnity between the eyebrows is obvious.
According to that Xiao Wu's statement, the cost of boarding a person is five hundred taels, which is tantamount to an astronomical amount for these poor people in ordinary clothes, what kind of reason makes them risk their lives to go thousands of miles to Liao?
"Childe. ”
Chu Yunsheng was thinking about Xiao Wu's voice from behind Leng Buding, she turned around and saw Xiao Wu in linen standing behind her, looking at her seriously with big eyes as black as ink, looking like she wanted to say something.
"What, what's the matter?" Chu Yunsheng stepped aside, quickly looked around, and made sure that there was no one else on the deck except for the two crew members who were chatting on the front railing, and the people who were gathered together to keep warm, before he said, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Xiao Wu took a step forward, walked to Chu Yunsheng's side, looked at Chu Yunsheng seriously, and quickly turned his head, his eyes fell on the sea level farther away, and he said in a low voice: "No, it's nothing, I'm just curious about what a person with a temperament like Gongzi is going to do in Liaoguo." ”
Just as she was curious about why these people went to great lengths to go to the Liao Kingdom, Xiao Wu was also curious about her purpose and reasons, Chu Yunsheng didn't care, and only smiled: "It's nothing, don't you see that these people are also going to the Liao Kingdom?"
Originally, it was just a small chat, but who knew that after hearing this sentence, Xiao Wu's face changed, and a touch of embarrassment and helplessness appeared on his fair and immature face for a moment, and two flushes quickly spread on both sides of his cheeks, although he was facing Chu Yunsheng sideways, but he still made Chu Yunsheng look at it, only to see him raise his hand and hold the railing made of Xuantie tightly and said, "Yes...... Yes...... I often run, in fact, I just followed my eldest brother for a short time, so ...... It's not quite clear. ”
Chu Yunsheng's gaze fell on his cheeks, and finally fell to his hands that were tightly clutching the railing, and he wondered, "You seem to be nervous?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wu's body was stunned, and he immediately turned around and hurriedly waved his hand to deny: "No, no, what's the matter, I just saw that Gongzi and his party had an outstanding temperament, which was different from them, so I asked casually out of curiosity." ”
"It's different from them, so what did they do when they went to Liao?"
They, of course, refer to the dozens of people crowded into the bottom cabin and the people gathered on this deck.
"They?" Xiao Wu saw that Chu Yunsheng's attention was diverted, and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately replied: "Most of them are because they or the head of the family committed something in their hometown, and they have a murder case on their backs, and the world is so big, there is no place to hide, so they think that they can escape to the Liao Kingdom, where Emperor Tiangao is far from being found, however, because of this, compared to them, I think Gongzi and his party are very strange, looking at your bearing, you are definitely not a traitor." ”
Every word he said, every expression fell into Chu Yunsheng's eyes, and naturally he didn't miss the slight change that he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he thought he had changed the topic, Chu Yunsheng saw it clearly, but he didn't expose it, he only smiled and asked without answering: "Then do you look at these people, like traitors?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wu just touched his head and smiled awkwardly, so he stopped talking, and at this time, it happened that the two crew members who were talking first not far away were calling him, he nodded to Chu Yunsheng and turned around and ran away.
Chu Yunsheng also turned around and looked at his figure, always feeling that he wanted to speak a few times and stopped, there was something in the words, she couldn't help but remember that when he followed him in the secret passage, his expression was so arrogant and impatient, it was like the shy young man in front of him, and the appearance at that time was clearly a high posture that they would come if they wanted to come, and they would give up if they didn't want to come, and now they ...... Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng was stunned, and suddenly understood the key point of Xiao Wu's judgment between the two of them.
Did he just not want them to follow him on the ship? just put on such an impatient look, trying to displease them and give up?
Just thought of this, before Chu Yunsheng could think about it, Yu Shenyuan's figure had already appeared on the other side of the deck, although he was wearing a sky blue brocade suit, the pure color that could cleanse people's hearts could not hide half of the enchanting aura on his body, under this blue sea and blue sky, it became more and more beautiful and graceful.
As soon as his body appeared, the eyes of those sitting around him were almost at the same time, even if some women were shy and embarrassed to raise their eyes directly, but they still lifted a corner of their eyes from time to time to look at him secretly.
However, Yu Shenyuan, who was the focus of everyone's eyes, seemed to be unaware, he stretched his waist lazily, and his half-open shirt was torn a little wider because of his action, and several little women who were close to saw this scene couldn't help but blush their cheeks.
"It's still fresh air. Yu Shenyuan walked up to Chu Yunsheng, leaned on the railing like a boneless person, approached Chu Yunsheng, sniffed deeply and said, "It seems that Miss Chu's injuries have almost recovered?"
Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help frowning.
Since the last time she escaped from the palace of the King of Chu, she was not only highly poisoned because of General Shen's arrow, leaving the residual poison in her body that has not been removed, but also leaving large and small scars on her body, which have been coated with ointment these days, so she naturally has a cool medicinal fragrance on her body, but Yu Shenyuan just sniffed it like this, and did not smell the medicinal fragrance on her body, so she said so.
But as everyone knows, several scars on her body that were deep visible at that time have not healed, and she frowns at the slightest pain when she moves, and the reason why she didn't apply the ointment today is not because she slept in a room with Yu Shenyuan.
How could she take off her clothes and apply ointment!
And the reason why Yu Shenyuan said this must be deliberate.
In an instant, he understood Yu Shenyuan's thoughts, Chu Yunsheng warned himself in his heart that he couldn't deal with this bastard, and after taking a deep breath, Chu Yunsheng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "This doesn't worry about Yuxiang." ”
The two were talking, but they saw the maid Ziyi and Lanyi coming forward with water and pastries respectively, Ziyi obeyed Yu Shenyuan, and said ashamedly: "This ship does not provide food, it is all supported by the dry food they carry, and the slave maid has just been found, and the small kitchen used by the captain is not suitable for cooking for the master, so I also ask the master to take a look." ”
Yu Shenyuan waved his hand, and his indifferent body was about to fall on a piece of osmanthus cake in the tray, but he saw a strong wind suddenly blowing on the opposite side, and the people with good eyes had not been able to see the person's actions clearly, and the two osmanthus cakes on the tray had disappeared, and in the next moment, there was a tall man with a sound quality mask beside Chu Yunsheng.
The two pieces of osmanthus cake were placed in the palm of his hand, he raised his hand and handed a piece to Chu Yunsheng, signaling Chu Yunsheng to eat it, Chu Yunsheng looked at the dumb brother who still had a soft spot for osmanthus cake with some amusement and shook his head.
Seeing that she didn't eat, Dumb turned around, raised his other hand, pushed the silver mask on his face, revealing his delicate and picturesque chin and beautiful lips like cherry blossom petals, and gave the two pieces of osmanthus cake without hesitation.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng burst out laughing, she couldn't help but tug on the arm of Yu Shenyuan, who had to grab another piece of red bean cake next to her, and said with a smile: "Why don't I think you two are not like each other at all!"
It is clearly the same face that captivates the country and the city, but in Brother Dumb, it is a kind of absolutely dusty temperament, but on Yu Shenyuan, it is a demon and charm.
Yu Shenyuan threw the red bean cake into his mouth and swallowed it elegantly, only then did he glance at Chu Yunsheng lightly, and said with a smile: "Isn't that better." ”
After saying this, he turned around and leaned against the railing, and his eyes looked a little lonely at the boundless sea below.
And Chu Yunsheng, who was left with such headless words, was embarrassed to ask again, she raised her hand and took a piece of red bean cake, only to her mouth, but the big boat under her feet began to shake violently, causing her body to stumble and almost fall, but fortunately, she reacted in time and grabbed the railing with her backhand, and at the same time, Brother Dumb's hand also quickly swept to the back of her neck, and she was very skilled in hooking her placket and her whole person with a finger.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng Chu Yunsheng struggled for a while, and did not fall, after this violent shaking, Dumb immediately let go of his fingers.
And Chu Yunsheng was free, stood firm, and before she could tidy up her clothes, she saw that the more than 20 people who were drinking and gambling behind the boat boss last night actually stood under the mast, and they were all holding weapons in their hands.
The captain of the ship, among these men, was holding a weapon made of black iron like a hammer, and when he saw that everyone looked at him in surprise, he coughed twice, spit out a mouthful of phlegm on the deck, and then said, "Acquaintance, obediently hand over all the valuable things on you." ”
As soon as his words fell, the crowd that was besieged suddenly burst into screams, and some unknown people exchanged words from time to time, and asked, "What's the matter? Have we paid the boat fare from time to time?"
Hearing this, the boat boss spat out another mouthful of spittle, and glared at the man fiercely: "The boat fare is the boat fare, and now it is the protection fee." ”
"Aren't you obviously slandering?
"That is, in order to make up the passage money to get on the boat, we can't even afford to drink a mouthful of food and water, where is there anything valuable. ”
……
There was a shouting and wailing in all directions, but they stopped abruptly as the captain raised his hammer and slammed it into the chest of one of them.
That person is the one who was initially dissatisfied with the theory of standing up.
As he smashed his hammer, the man snorted, and immediately spit out a handful of blood from his mouth, and then fell to the ground with a pale face, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
The people who had been noisy just now shut up, and the children were so frightened that they immediately cried when they saw such a scene, and the adults around them immediately raised their hands to cover their mouths, for fear that this would attract more attention from the fierce ship boss.
At this time, Xiao Wu walked out from the staircase leading to the next cabin with a few others, and behind them was a group of men, women and children with their hands tied, that is, those who were crowded in the lowest cabin before, one by one their hands were tied, and they were carried out like sheep, there were more than twenty of them, and after them, there were also two people who were tied their hands alone, it was none other than the beautiful child and Mo Yu in Chu Yunsheng and his party.
Xiao Wu and a few other men of the ship boss's men drove them to this end of the ship deck like ducks, mixed with this group of people, and then walked to the boat boss and said, "Big brother, it's all here." ”
Hearing this, the boat boss nodded, his gaze scanned the audience like an eagle falcon, swiped across everyone's faces one by one, and finally fell on Chu Yunsheng and Yu Shenyuan.
Then he turned around, facing Chu Yunsheng and Yu Shenyuan, and raised his hand to raise the hammer in his hand, and said coldly: "What, do you want me to demonstrate again?"
