Chapter 5: Firelight

When he was in a daze, Tan Sheng was pushed by the official's mother while holding the lamp oil bottle, listening to her low and anxious voice. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Girl! It's coming!" the official's mother's voice was like a lone wolf, panicked, "There is a voice outside..."

Tan Sheng woke up, quickly pulled out the lamp oil bottle, trembled and sprinkled the remaining seed oil all the way, blew out the oil lamp in one breath, and put the straw paper in his hand with the fire fold, and then put it on the clothes at his feet.

Tan Sheng held his breath and leaned against the roller blind, looking out through the small slit. In the moonlight, a small boat floated by, and the captain stood in the bow of the boat, dancing as if gesturing with the people on the boat.

The boat drifted closer and closer, and three dark shadows stood in the bow.

The official's mother trembled, seeing Tan Sheng clinging to the cabin, her lips pursed tightly, and she couldn't see anything.

After a while, she saw Tan Sheng gesturing at her, and the official's mother hurriedly followed behind Tan Sheng and walked lightly to the stern of the boat.

The cabin of the white canopy was open inside and out, Tan Sheng pinched his nose, took a breath, and gently slid from the stern into the water.

It was very cold in the water, Tan Sheng took off his jacket for convenience, and the water pounced on his body through his underwear, like an ice edge, Tan Sheng held his breath, compared to the eastward of the official's mother, and then gritted his teeth and sank into the water!

Swim hard!

Travel East!

There is a reef in the east, and in his previous life, Tansheng leaned on the reef and cried, Tansheng knew!

I don't know how long it took, Tan Sheng's hands were filled with lead, as if a large stone hit his chest. She tried to keep her eyes open underwater and swam forward with all her might, and if she was caught, it was a dead end, her tofu workshop, her teaching husband, and her official mother, there was nothing!

Her rebirth can't die before it even begins!

It seemed like a whole hour had passed, and it seemed that only a moment had passed, Tan Sheng touched the boulder, panted out of the water, and took a big breath, and it didn't take long for the official's mother to climb the boulder. The two of them hid behind the stones, Tan Sheng's heart seemed to jump out, and she could clearly see the vigorous fireball of more than 500 meters through the reflection of the water surface!

Of course, you can also hear the endless Jiangxi dialect scolding the mother on the ship, and the main greeting object is the mother of the boat boss.

As expected, the captain of the ship did collude with the three thieves. The three of them were freezing cold, and they waited for the rabbit for so long with great professionalism, but they didn't even catch a single hair, and they were naturally frizzy.

As soon as it gets frizzy, it starts dog-eat-dog.

Of course, the main biting boat boss is dereliction of duty.

As soon as they got on the ship, the ship was about to sink, and even the money they brought with them was burned -- the three men were killed by the ship's carelessness and leaking the lamp oil, so that the poor sour lady in the cabin was burned to death in their sleep.

Take the opportunity to escape?

This pair of ladies who have little knowledge, are poor, and don't have the dream of being an official family, where did they get their minds to burn the boat and escape!

The official's mother trembled and tread water, her pupils clearly reflected the fireball, turned her head, and saw her girl looking out with half of her face pressed against the boulder, her face was pale but calm, as if... Are you listening to the drama with relish?

The official's mother hesitated for a while, "Aunt... Girl..."

"Huh. Tan Sheng turned around and said yes.

The official's mother swallowed, "How did you know that there were sailors robbing the ship tonight..."

Tan Sheng was silent for a moment before he said, "If I say, I will tell fortunes, will my mother believe it?"

Believe it! How not to believe it!

The girl said that there were water bandits, and the water bandits came.

The girl said she wanted lamp oil, and the ship burned.

The girl is so godly, she said she can tell fortunes, then she will definitely tell fortunes!

The only question is, girl, when did you learn this skill?

The night north wind mixed with Mars soared upwards and whistled through the ears of the official's mother.

The official's mother closed her mouth in understanding, forget it, let's talk about such trivial matters after they step on land.

"Poof" four times.

The fire on the white canopy boat is getting bigger, and several large ships that are sailing have gathered around to find out.

The identities of the three bandits and the boat boss were not visible, and in a hurry, they jumped into the river one after another and swam towards the small boat where the bandits came.

The four of them scolded and complained to each other, but they never stopped.

Tan Sheng listened with great interest, listened and listened, and the whole person suddenly straightened his back.

The official's mother couldn't understand Jiangxi dialect, but she was keenly aware of Tan Sheng's strangeness, and she became nervous all of a sudden, and hurriedly took the little girl in her arms, and comforted softly, "Good... When they're gone, we'll swim ashore..."

Before the official's mother finished speaking, a large ball of bright light bypassed the boulder and shone directly on the water in front of the official's mother and Tansheng. The silhouette of the flat-leaf boat was reflected on the water, and the people on the boat twisted their heights and shouted, "Come on, people! There are still people alive on that boat!"

After chanting, the flat-leaf boat rowed fast with an oar's oars of three meters, and soon arrived in front of Tansheng. There were three or two young men on the boat, wearing linen clothes, and tying a coarse cloth belt around their waists in a proper manner, and when they saw a woman and a young girl under the reef, they immediately stretched out their hands, "Come!

The official's mother was overjoyed and was dragged onto the boat by the little guy.

Tan Sheng's eyes were alert, and he looked at the little guy motionless.

The little guy "tsk", laughed, and pointed back, "We are on that big boat, my old lady saw a fire on the river, and asked us to come and see what was going on!"

At a wrong glance, the fire on the river became smaller, and there was a large ship next to the fire.

The sail flag was high, the ship was brightly lit, and there seemed to be three or five servants patrolling back and forth on the board, which should be the ship of the official family.

This official family is not only wealthy, but also willing to give, and he also has to take care of the idle affairs on the river.

Tan Sheng stretched out his hand, and the official's mother grabbed her and put a big blanket on Tan Sheng.

Look closer, only to see the bow of this big ship ironclad boat, can sweep the sea and break the waves, the private soldiers on the stern patrol back and forth, the three-story wing room has pear blossom wood hollow partition, or carved hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren, or carved five blessings to send peaches. A row of neat maids in green and thin jackets were separated by five steps, waiting outside the wing room with low eyebrows, and Tan Sheng and the official mother boarded the boat without attracting any attention from them.

What a well-behaved family.

Tan Sheng meditated.

The official's mother followed behind Tan Sheng, and soon a girl with thin eyebrows and a round face in a peach pink jacket greeted her and took the two to the small room to change clothes and rest.

If there is no accident, she will go to bed after changing her clothes and resting, and her identity will not see the owner of this ship, and she will part ways when she arrives in Nanchang tomorrow, and there will be no time to see each other again - then she will never know the truth of the water bandit's words.

Tan Sheng gritted his teeth, raised his head, and after thanking him, he said softly, "Please ask this sister to inform the county lord of Pingyang, the little girl is the niece of Zhao Xian, the envoy of Jiangxi." Tonight, he was attacked by water thieves, so he had to burn the boat and escape. The county lord is kind and kind, can you send someone to help the little girl catch up with those bandits?"

The maid was very surprised, but after a moment, her expression returned to normal, and she smiled, "Please wait a while, girl." ”

After a while, the girl turned back, smiled and led Tansheng and the two to the inside, and stretched out her hand to help them block the curtain.

Tan Sheng bowed his head meekly and said, "I'm tired of my sister." ”

"What is your sister's name, the maid's name is Lilac, and she is just the maid in front of the old lady. Lilac pursed her lips and smiled, her movements were gentle, and she stretched out her hand to make an invitation, "The county lord is waiting for Miss Zhao in the room." ”

Tan Sheng's heart jumped suddenly, he pulled his hair behind his ears, and walked around the silk land fishing and farming reading screen, and saw an old lady with a good appearance and silver sideburns on the main seat, and a girl with a silver plate on one side and eyes like apricots standing beside her.

Tan Sheng bowed to the blessed body, and his voice was steady, "The little girl Zhao Tansheng has seen the county lord of Pingyang and the county lord Wan'an. Disturbing Mrs. Qing'an, the little girl was very frightened. ”

"Get up. The county lord of Pingyang opened his mouth, the weather was cold, the old man put his hands in the sleeve cage, and his expression could not be seen with joy or anger, "You are Zhao Xian's niece?"

Tan Shengying, "Back to the county lord, it is the little girl." ”

The county lord of Pingyang smiled, "Zhao Xian is unreasonable. ”

Tan Sheng's head is getting lower and lower, and his niece was robbed on the territory under his jurisdiction, burned the boat, fell into the water, and almost died, which makes no sense. Looking at Tan Sheng again, there is a simple woman next to him, and he doesn't even have a maid to use at hand, which is even more unreasonable.

The county lord of Pingyang County did not say a word about this, and changed the subject, "There is no logo on the ship, and there is no family emblem on the sail." In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, my Weng's boat has always been hidden. How do you know that this is the Weng family's ship?"
