Chapter 16 The River Flows Through the Ages
The river is mighty, flowing day and night, the boats are busy, and the white sails are fluttering in the sky. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info This is the river road from the Three Gorges out of Shu, in ancient times it was the important place of Shu land, the famous Shu embroidery, the famous wine sword Nanchun, it flowed from here to the north and south of the river, and the ships full of goods also transported the specialties from all over the country into the Sichuan one by one.
The waves were turbid, and the white sand gulls swept across the water, flying to the place where the sky and water meet, and a passenger boat went down the river, startling the gulls and herons. It is dusk, the sunset in the west mountain, the afterglow is scattered, and the river is red. Chen Jiutong, the owner of the ship, gave a few words to the sailors on board, then walked to the bow of the boat and smoked a pipe of dry tobacco beautifully. He is a middle-aged man in his forties, with an ordinary appearance and a medium build, because he has been running in the wind and sun all year round, so his complexion is dark, and only his eyes are bright. His boat had been resting for more than half a month, and this time it sailed, but it only carried a pair of guests, of course, this pair of guests was enough to make people excited. However, Chen Jiutong of the old rivers and lakes can naturally see that this pair of guests is unusual, and the car and boat shop is the closest to the rivers and lakes.
After enjoying the scenery on the shore of "mountains on both sides of the strait, there is no place", Chen Jiutong, who had finished smoking a bag of cigarettes, was about to return to the cabin to rest, and saw the guest who was more noble and Tsinghua than the king Sun Gongzi walked out of the main cabin. A young man in a plain white shirt, his eyebrows are light and sparse, which does not make people feel how approachable, but he has an elegant and dusty demeanor. Chen Jiu stepped forward to say hello, smiled, and said with a mouth full of yellow teeth: "Jun Gongzi, why don't you rest in the cabin, the wind is strong on the river, and your body is weak, but don't catch the cold!" ”
This white-clothed young man was naturally Jun Duxue, who was anxious to go to the East China Sea, and he reluctantly smiled and said, "It's okay, boatman, my body is not as weak as you think." It had been a few days since he left Chengdu, and after some twists and turns, he chartered the ship and drove down the river to the East China Sea. In the middle, Yi Qiushui's body was as Yan Gexing expected, and the poison of the drunken spring breeze attacked several times, but fortunately it was not as violent as the first time, and he was forcibly suppressed by his internal force, but watching Yiren lose weight day by day, his heart was extremely uncomfortable, and after a moment of silence, he asked: "Boatman, how long will it take to get to the East China Sea?" ”
Chen Jiutong looked at Jun Duxue's cold and urgent face, and wondered slightly: "Childe, the matter of this boat is not decided, if the journey is smooth, it will be there in half a month, but if you catch up with the headwind, you will definitely not be able to reach it in more than a month!" ”
Jun Duxue took a deep breath and said: "It's okay, boatman, you try to hurry as soon as possible, I don't understand any of this, but my sister is in an emergency and must rush to the East China Sea to seek medical treatment, please bother more." "Lonely men and widows, it is inconvenient to walk outside, so Jun Duxue and Yi Qiushui are commensurate with sisters and brothers.
Chen Jiutong hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will do my best, and I will never put your affairs on hold!" ”
After a few words, there were no words, and Chen Jiu retreated, leaving only Jun Duxue alone in the bow of the boat. Although his mind was depressed, he was independent of the bow of the boat, and when he saw the mighty river, the boat was like a shuttle, as if he was riding the wind, and his mind was open after all. He rarely lives in the valley and does not enter the red dust, so his mind is pure, he is dedicated to progress, and he has stepped into the way of heaven and man, but after all, he has a little less tempering, and it is difficult to compete with the top people in the world. In the past, the sword saint Shangguan Wuming traveled all over the rivers and mountains of Kyushu in three years, and then the Vientiane Heavenly Sword created was derived, which is the reason. Yun Mizhi ordered him to go out of the valley, and there was also this reason. Wu learned his situation, it can be said that any strange trick changes are useless, only by merging the situation in mind, understanding the natural trend of heaven and earth, and the principle of the operation of all things, can he step out of his own way and enter the real peak of martial arts. The way of heaven and man, for ordinary warriors, is certainly high and like a god, but it is only a new starting point.
The twilight is blue, the smoke is vast, and the rivers and mountains are picturesque. But at this time, several speedboats suddenly came on the river, rampage, and arrogance. A sturdy man in black on the speedboat, like an eagle falcon, swept up in the air and came straight towards the big ship, followed by several more people. The man swept his feet a few feet, his body was empty, and he landed on the bow of the boat lightly, this light work was really extraordinary, he was dressed in black, and there was a white Jiao with teeth and claws embroidered on his chest, and his body immediately looked at Jun Duxue, his eyes were like electricity, and he was very cold. Although the eight people behind him did not have such a sweeping method, they also swept on the boat at a little on the river halfway, but these eight people were all dressed in blue, with a strong body, and a white Jiao was also embroidered on their chests.
Jun Duxue's expression was faint, there was no surprise on her face, she put one hand behind her back, and said lightly: "Everyone is uninvited, what are you doing?" ”
The man in black stared slightly, waved his hand and said, "Throw it up." ”
On a speedboat near the bow of the boat, two men in blue shirts in the same costume each picked up a suitcase, exhaled, and threw the box onto the bow of the boat with a strong arm.
Jun Duxue frowned slightly, looking at the rumors of its coming, I am afraid that each box weighs four or five hundred pounds, and when it hits a person, it will immediately be a situation of broken tendons and fractures. This group of people is menacing and preemptive, and it is obvious that their intentions are not good.
As soon as the box arrived at the bow of the ship, I saw one of the eight blue-shirted men float out, grabbed the two boxes with both hands, and took the two boxes in his arms, and the amazing impact force was dissolved with a slight twist under his feet, and the two boxes fell silently on the deck, the bow of the ship sank slightly, and the man then returned to the team. The man in black waved his hand again, and the other person stepped forward to open the box, a mouthful of golden light and a mouthful of jewels. The shining golden one is filled with ingots of gold, full of color, and the other in addition to gold, there are countless pearls of white jade, agate jade are randomly stacked in the box, this is a fortune that shocks the world!
Jun Duxue's eyes flashed, and she said coldly: "What do you mean? ”
The man in black bowed slightly, a polite smile appeared on his face, and he said indifferently: "I want to ask for something on my son's body with this ten thousand taels of gold and half a box of pearls and jade, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
Jun Duxue's heart shook slightly, and at this time he understood that this group of people were coming towards the door of Zhongmiao, and he said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, I don't have anything long in the lower body, I'm afraid you're just looking for the wrong person!" ”
The man in black grinned, his eyes showed a cold light, and he said: "Why should the prince cover it up again, the strange treasure you have has been spread all over the rivers and lakes, if it is not confirmed, how can you come to disturb it?" ”
Jun Duxue was silent for a long time, and then asked, "Who is the news?" ”
The man in black suddenly showed indescribable ecstasy in his eyes, and laughed: "It's a group of mysterious people who don't know the origin, but they don't want to be true, God help me!" Originally, he was just holding a tentative intention, but now he was confirmed from Jun Duxue's mouth.
