Chapter 25 There Will Be a Fierce Year
On the second day, the rat went to Wuyang to arrange the national treasures. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Mouse Brother went to find the land and informed Yang Shu of the recent predicament, and he could come again soon. The land has been waiting for a long time, and it cannot be sought. The two hit it off and discussed the specifics.
It's just that before leaving, Brother Mouse begged: "My brother has always thought that what we did this time is a national treasure, Brother Land, don't tell my brother to do poison." ”
"I won't tell him." But he secretly said in his heart: It seems that he doesn't know that Yang Shu has already known about the poison last time. Hey, it's a blessing to have such an older brother. It's just a pity that I made a scapegoat this time. I'll take care of your brother.
……
Freight has been arranged for the past few days, and it is also the calm before the storm. Yang Shu, who had no money, finally returned to school with peace of mind and studied seriously.
"Where the teacher is, thorns are born. After the great army, there will be a fierce year. Poplar often memorizes this classic silently.
"Wood, don't you shout the same sentence for days on end, okay?" Ma Shu pouted.
"At the end of the semester, I have to take the test to memorize "Lao Tzu"." Poplar smiled faintly.
"Humph! Haven't you memorized these boring books since you were a child? Don't come to ridicule us poor babies who recite silently. Ma Shu glanced at the poplar tree and said.
"After a long time, of course you will forget if you don't study. And the classics are not used to memorize, but to be learned and put into practice. Yang Shu had the same tone as when his father taught him.
"Wow! In the past two months, you are a dragon who has seen the beginning and not the end, so you have to teach me a lesson as soon as you come back to school, right? Go out and practice for a while, and you'll have a long life. Ma Shu said angrily.
Poplar ignored Ma Shu. Thinking of the picture of his father educating him since he was a child: "The classics are not used to memorize, but to cultivate oneself and prudence, and to apply what you have learned." "I sighed secretly, I'm afraid I disappointed my father this time......
Seeing that Yang Shu ignored himself, Ma Shu provoked with some arrogance: "I heard that you have been very tight lately, and you still owe a lot of money?" You should use these books to put what you have learned into practice!! ”
Yang Shu replied lightly: "Who did you listen to?" ”
Ma Shu knew that he had broken his promise, as if he was afraid that others would hear it, and his voice was a little low: "That's what I said." ”
Yang Shu smiled: "Don't listen to their rumors, there is no such thing." ”
At this moment, a mouse's voice came from outside the classroom door: "Poplar." Let's go! ”
The crown prince's head, which had been lowered, slowly lifted up, aiming at the back of the poplar tree leaving......
The mouse glanced at the prince strangely, and didn't know what to think? Just nodded his head and left with the poplar.
Yang Shu felt the gaze of the mouse communicating with the person behind him, and said secretly in his heart: This saves some of the cumbersomeness.
The three brothers in the past have their own thoughts now, and I don't know if they will turn against each other in the future!
……
At noon in June, the heat is breathless, children bathe in the river like loaches, and laughter spreads to every corner of the mountain village.
The microwave rippled in the Wuyang River, and the poplar tree stood on the embankment, looking at such a scene, and suddenly remembered his hometown. Unconsciously took off his shoes, the river in June was warm, but it couldn't stop a burst of coolness rippling from the bottom of his heart.
On the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival, the annual dragon boat race is about to be staged. However, the weather forecast shows continuous heavy rain today and tomorrow, so please prepare for flood prevention. People who are accustomed to rain around the Dragon Boat Festival naturally don't really take the government's warnings seriously.
Poplar's ships in the upper reaches of southern Burma have long been prepared, more than 40 of them, and this battle has more than doubled the size of the last time. Let the rat wait in the downstream of Wuyang with peace of mind, and act according to the plan without accident.
The sky in June is like a great change in people's hearts. Suddenly the wind was fierce, the lightning was thundering, and the willows on both sides of the river bank were rustling. In an instant, dark clouds filled the sky, and there was another thunderclap, and with a bang, the heavy rain fell from the sky as if it had collapsed.
Poplar looked at the red clouds in the west and sighed lightly: After the army, there will be a fierce year. It seems that this rainstorm has been going on for more than two days.
So, he sat leisurely in the pavilion of a mountain villa quietly drinking flower tea, listening to the sound of the rain, holding a book in his hand, slightly yellowed, which was somewhat similar to the original land of "Lianshan", but the cover was written "Returning to Tibet".
At this time, on another mountain, a young man with glasses, who looked like a well-read and knowledgeable young man, held "Lianshan" in his hand, and said the same words as the poplar tree: "There are red clouds in the west, and there will be a fierce year." I'm afraid the plan has changed this time!! ”
The rain has been pouring down, and the water on the surface of the Wuyang River has long been muddy. The dragon boats that were originally trained in the river have all closed their teams.
At first, the rat and the others waited comfortably downstream, but after a day passed, they didn't see any ships coming slowly, and they couldn't help but start to feel a little anxious.
The rain has no intention of stopping, and continues to punish human beings for destroying nature.
By the afternoon of the second day, the sky was a little tired, and the rain finally began to lighten. The flood fighters had just laid sandbags on both sides of the river and were ready to retreat. Although the rain was light, the river did not slow down with the rain.
The rat and the others squatted for a day, but still no ship came down, and they were even more anxious, wondering if the poplar side would have failed. It was only the returning sentry who told them that the ship was still on the bank of the river upstream and was not doing anything.
……
"Brother Tree, the rain is light." Brother Zhou gestured.
"Let's get the artifacts ready this time." Poplar asked.
"Ready." Brother Zhou carefully handed a package to Yang Shu, and said tentatively: "Brother Shu is going to personally escort the goods?" ”
Yang Shu whispered: "This time the amount is too big, it will always be more reassuring to keep it around." ”
Seeing that the poplar tree did not mean to go down the mountain. Brother Zhou was a little puzzled: "The rain is almost stopping, if you don't act, I'm afraid the river will slow down." ”
"It's time to act. Brother Zhou, then please ask a few brothers to connect all the twenty boats in series and fix them on the stone lion above the bridge bank. "Poplar takes care of himself.
"Fixed?" Brother Zhou was stunned.
"Excuse me! The fixed ones are referred to as the A fleet, and those that travel for a while are collectively referred to as the B fleet. Poplar didn't explain either.
"Suspicious." Since having the last experience of poplars. Although he muttered, he turned around and arranged for someone to do it.
Yang Shu looked at Brother Zhou's departing back, rubbed the bridge of his nose, and said, "If I don't move, he won't move." Since he is familiar with "Lianshan", he will not be unaware of the heavy rain. But how will he cross the port? ”
After Brother Zhou finished speaking, he came back and informed: "Brother Shu, the A fleet has been fixed according to your requirements. ”
Yang Shu nodded: "Brother Zhou, is there a new face on the boat this time?" ”
Brother Zhou said truthfully: "There are too many boats this time, except for the group last time, there will always be a few new faces this time." ”
Yang Shu asked again: "Who is the most trustworthy person among these people?" ”
Brother Zhou was stunned: "Of course, the most trusted person is my assistant Xu Liang, who has been with me for ten years." ”
Yang Shu was stunned: "Why didn't I see it last time?" ”
Brother Zhou smiled: "Last time, it was really his daughter-in-law who gave birth, so he didn't come with us." ”
Yang Shu frowned and said, "Got it." Let the stranger take the lead in the B fleet. The manned boat is Xu Liang! And he began to groan again.
The rain finally stopped, and the poplar shouted "Let's start"!
After a while, more than 20 boats sailed from the upper reaches of southern Myanmar to Wuyang, although the rain stopped, the water level did not decrease, and they were still panting, and the group of ships looked fierce and abnormal.
The captain of the border guard at the port looked at such a battle, thought about the scene a few months ago, and sneered: Do you still want to do this?
The border guards stopped the B flotilla: "Come over and check." ”
The stranger took various passes and exchanged pleasantries with the border guards.
"What is this for?" The guards salvaged a box along the rope.
The strange man smiled: "It's used to ward off evil spirits." ”
At this time, the captain of the border guard came over to preside over the overall situation: "All of them were salvaged, and they were carefully watched to see if there was a hidden compartment inside." ”
The boxes were quickly all salvaged and examined one by one.
Unlike last time, there was something in each box. But all of them are blue and white porcelain bottles, which look very old and look a little old. I just don't know if it's a real antique, or it's artificially old.
"Call Master An over." The border guard captain snorted.
More than 20 pieces of blue and white porcelain are always verified, and it always takes a while. This time, 20 antiques who did not know the authenticity of the antiques were smuggled over, and they had already spread throughout the entire border port. In particular, the captain and team members of Port B suddenly talked about it, and they were very restless, and they all looked forward to seeing what was going on.
At this time, the red clouds in the west moved slowly again, and suddenly the wind was fierce, the lightning and thunder roared, and the heavy rain raged loudly......
On a manned boat at Port B, the boatman is Xu Liang. During a routine inspection at the port, the weather was on the panting river, and the people on the boat complained one after another, and the border guards at Port B took care of his safety and hurriedly checked and let him leave safely.
"The goods are here." Xu said with a lingering conscience.
I saw that the person who connected was not a rat and a party, but the person who was born in front of Brother Zhou at the beginning.
"Let's worry for a long time, just go well." A slightly familiar voice rang out from among the joints.
Xu Liang's face was overjoyed, and he handed over the goods and said, "Brother Mouse, take a look at the goods!" ”
Just when the two secretly rejoiced in handover.
"Don't move, raise your hands." A group of people who hid around the grass on both sides of the river, wearing SWAT uniforms, shouted loudly, and the leader was the prince's father.
Brother Mouse, Xu Liang and others did not dare to be presumptuous, holding their hands on their heads, waiting for the search of the special police.
"Director, I found this in this blue and white porcelain vase." A SWAT officer holds a bag of white powder.
The prince's father glanced at the jade bottle, and the workmanship was very rough. Stretched out his hand and took out a bag of it, opened it with a knife, tasted it with his hand, and said to himself: "No. 4".
Then he waved his hand and shouted, "Take everyone away." The scene was blocked, and all the goods inside were handed over to obtain certificates. ”
Not long after the B fleet passed, Yang Shu stretched out his hand outside the pavilion to test the size of the rain grains, and muttered to himself: "Brother Zhou, thank you!" It was you who taught me that the people around me were the least trustworthy. ”
Brother Zhou stood aside, his face twitched, and his eyes turned into horror as he looked at the young man beside him. sighed: "I didn't expect it to be him." ”
……
As the red clouds completely covered the sky, the torrential rain had no intention of stopping. In the early hours of the third day, the bottom of the river began to collapse, and the raging flood of houses swooped down like a beast on the sleeping people in the middle of the night.
When the people shouted at each other and rushed out of the door, the water was already above their calves, and they shouted and ran for their lives in the darkness in panic and supported each other to the hillside behind the street.
It was not until the evening of the third day that the Heavenly Father, who had wreaked havoc enough, refused to give up. I saw all kinds of items and debris on the surface of the river, and the flood water was still rumbling downward. A large number of rescue teams began to search for the victims on the river, and volunteers from various places rushed to southern Myanmar and Wuyang to help.
However, the flood came too quickly, and many of the ships docked on the river bank had been washed away by the flood, and only the more than 20 ships of poplar trees were firmly connected and interlocked, allowing the flood to wash away, and they were also firmly fixed next to the stone lion on the bridge bank in southern Myanmar.
Time was pressing, and suddenly more than 20 boats became rescue boats requisitioned by the governments of both sides!
Yang Shu seemed to be facing Brother Zhou, and seemed to say to himself: It's time for us to appear......
