Chapter 54 Pingzhou Goes Ashore

Shengge is located in the north and has always been cold and fast. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's just past the height of summer, and the weather is about to get cooler. When Huang Jiang and his entourage landed in Pingzhou, dark clouds rolled in the sky, thunder shook loudly, and it looked like it was going to rain. The boatman looked up at the black clouds in the sky and said, "It will rain continuously, and it will not stop for three days." ”

After the people had moved their belongings, they hurriedly hired two wagons at the ferry port and carried the goods one by one. After packing up, the rain is about to fall. Lin Luo had been standing on the shore, staring intently in the direction he had come, his eyes were collecting something on the river, and he didn't say a word.

I saw that the boatman suddenly put down the oar in his hand, tied it to the stake on the shore, and went ashore without a sound. After standing in front of a few people, he glanced around at them and said, "My house is near here, if you don't dislike it, you can come to the cold house to rest for a few days." When the rain is getting lighter, it's not too late to leave, how do you think? ”

Huang Jiang and the others looked at each other, looked up at the sky again, and couldn't make up their minds for a while.

"What are you hesitating about, I say, everyone, it's going to rain heavily this day! Your boxes have just been soaked in river water, and it will rain again in less than a day? Liu Wugang said hurriedly, "Even if it is a strong and sealed wooden box, it can't stop such a wind and rain!" ”

"The fifth master is right, I think we should go to the benefactor's house to rest for a while, and then it's not too late to make another plan." Lin Xun said, "Besides, after tossing and turning on the boat for two days, it is time for the brothers to rest." ”

After hearing this, Huang Jiang had to thank the boatman with emotion: "Then it will be annoying to the benefactor." ”

After they had made up their minds, they pulled up the cart and followed the boatman to their home. When the boatman was leaving, he seemed to look at Lin Luolin Xun, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

Lin Luo and Lin Xun naturally saw this attention, but they really didn't know what they meant, so they didn't say much, and walked slowly behind them. But at some point, Tang Guxi, who was walking aside, suddenly came over and said in the ears of the two: "This boatman...... Doesn't that seem to mean something to the two of you? ”

"Heh, you're very sharp-eyed." Lin Xun smiled, glanced at her, and said to Lin Luo, "But it's really strange, you said that we don't know him, why do you always think he wants to say something to us?" ”

Lin Luo's gaze fell far away on the boatman, but he just shook his head and did not speak.

Tang Guxi said: "I think, he has something to ask for." ”

"Something?" Lin Xun turned his head, stopped joking, thought for a moment and said, "What you said seems to have some truth......

"I think so too." Lin Luo said suddenly.

Lin Xun and Tang Guxi both turned their heads to look at her, but Lin Luo didn't say anything more. At this moment, a muffled thunder resounded in the sky, and suddenly heavy rain poured down, and everyone on the road ran and fled, hurriedly packing up their things and going home. They hurriedly stopped the car, took out their cloaks from the car, and distributed them one by one, and when everyone was dressed, they set off again and drove quickly to the boatman's house.

Soon, the group arrived at their temporary accommodation. The boatman's house was simple, but he did not lack anything, and after arranging three houses for them, several of them went to rest in the hall.

The boatman asked his wife to boil a few pots of hot water in the kitchen, and brought them up one by one, and after a few sips of hot tea, their bodies were much warmer, and they sat down together and began to talk about the past two days. Only then did they learn that the boatman, surnamed Bai and with no children, had been ferrying on the river for nearly 30 years.

"Master Bai, thanks to your help, otherwise we would still be wandering by the river today, let alone having a place to live now! Hey, it's bad luck to think about it, I met a thief on the first day of departure, and this kind of thing has never happened before! Huang Jiang drank a cup of hot tea, wiped his mouth, and said.

Bai Ye just sat quietly in the back, smiled faintly, and said, "Everything is just fate." The old man never imagined that he would meet you in that secluded place. ”

"In short, we all remember your great kindness and great virtue, and the brothers are absolutely unforgettable!"

Lin Luo, Lin Xun, Tang Guxi and Liu Wugang, the four of them sat in the corner and did not answer. After a while, Lin Luo suddenly put down the teacup and coughed softly twice, and everyone turned their heads and looked at her without knowing what to do.

When Lin Luo put the teacup, she had already learned from the afterglow that everyone had turned their heads, so she raised her head slightly, looked at Huang Jiang, and said, "Brother Huang...... Have you ever considered changing routes? ”

Lin Xun and Tang Guxi also looked at this question, and they didn't know why Lin Luo said this.

I saw Lin Luo pause, and then continued: "Since those bandits can get on our ship and kidnap Miss Tang without startling, then they must have put in a lot of effort." Now that they are empty of money and money, they will not be reconciled, if they follow us, then we are in the dark, they are in the light, if they want to sneak attack, it is not impossible. ”

"But if they can follow us, what's the use of us changing routes? I don't think there's a need to change, if they come out, we'll stop them, and kill him without leaving a single armor! ”

Lin Luo smiled lightly: "Brother Huang forgot a little. Our route was known to the previous boatmen, what if they were to chase after us? Since it was a sneak attack, we were at a disadvantage, so if we wanted to avoid them, it was best to change the route first......"

"But the route is predetermined!" "If you change the route at will, you will not only spend more money, but you may delay time!" Anyway...... Anyway, I don't say yes! He waved his hand and looked away.

When Lin Luo heard this, his lips pursed, his eyes sank, and he stopped talking.

Lin Xun felt a sense of anger in his heart, glanced at her, turned his head to Huang Jiang and said, "My senior sister is also for your good, what do you mean by such an attitude!" Don't forget, if it weren't for my senior sister coming to the rescue, you would have ...... by now."

"Hey Lin Gongzi! Lin Gongzi ......" Liu Wugang said suddenly, stretching out his hands and laughing, "This is well said, why did you quarrel?" If you want me to see, it is not easy to change the route, but what Miss Lin said is not unreasonable, so we should think long-term, anyway, sitting idle now is also sitting idle, and we have time to discuss. ”

After a while, Lin Xun and Huang Jiang also calmed down, and they stopped talking. Liu Wugang didn't expect his words to have such an effect, so he was very happy in his heart, and he also added a little more pride, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then said: "If you want me to say, after that, it will be mostly a land trip, so it is much more convenient than the waterway." As the saying goes, if it rains for a long time, it will be clear, and as soon as the rain stops, we will hurry up our horsepower, and maybe the bandits will not be able to catch up at all! ”

"Impossible." Wu Sheng said coldly on the side, without raising his eyebrows, "Unless they don't chase after them at all, once they are followed, they can't be shaken off alone." I think...... It's okay to change routes. ”

"Wusheng, you ......" Huang Jiang turned his head to look at him, speechless.

"Big brother," Wu Sheng raised his eyes, still expressionless, "We killed one of them, the bandits have always been cold and fierce, and they will take revenge." Since the man could have taken on the role of a boatman, they must have been well prepared, and not only did they get nothing but their lives. Does Big Brother think they will spare us easily? ”

After hearing this, Huang Jiang looked at the front with a stupid gaze, the sharpness in his eyes weakened little by little, and then he withdrew his gaze, lowered his head as if lamenting, and thought carefully.

"Cut ......" Lin Xun glanced at him, turned his head away and stopped looking at him.

For a while, the lobby was silent and quiet, and no one spoke anymore. After a while, I heard a muddy cough from behind, and Bai Ye's voice sounded slowly: "If you want to change the route, it's not impossible to ......"

Huang Jiang was stunned for a moment and raised his head: "Benefactor...... But what's the idea? ”

Everyone looked up at the boatman. I saw that Bai Ye exhaled lightly, and said unhurriedly: "You can go by water again, and then go ashore after reaching the next location, and then you have bypassed the road you originally had to pass, and you can also reach the northern land." How's that, everyone? ”

"But if you go by water, you can guarantee that they won't be tracked? If you keep following us, it will be even worse for us to do it on the water! ”

"Rest assured, I can arrange for you to get on another boat, I have been begging for a living on this river for so many years, and I have made many old friends, and they are all sincere and loyal, and they will definitely help you leave. The question is...... If you are already being targeted by now, then it will probably be much more disadvantageous to travel again......" After a moment of contemplation, he continued, "Well, even if you are targeted, the other party will not do it so quickly, because everyone has a heart of fear, and thieves are no exception. ”

Everyone nodded, and Lin Xunhu said respectfully: "What Bai Ye said is extremely true. But in this way, can you get rid of those people? ”

Bai Ye said with a smile: "I can't guarantee that the old man will not be able to get rid of it, but the original route is as this girl said, it must not be able to go again." ”

Lin Xun nodded with a deep groan, and when he turned around, his eyes inadvertently glanced at the Huang River, and when he saw that he was also listening attentively, disdain and ridicule arose again in his heart, and he couldn't help but chuckle: "Didn't someone just swear that he wouldn't change his route?" It seems that the situation has changed, and it is difficult to determine people's opinions...... Don't say it too early, lest you have no way back, and then it will be miserable. ”

Huang Jiang came back to his senses from Bai Ye's words and knew that Lin Xun was mocking him, but his attitude was indeed a little excessive, so he didn't take advantage of it, so he pretended not to hear it and stopped talking.

Tang Guxi, who was sitting next to Lin Xun, was contrary to usual at the moment, he didn't say a word from beginning to end, just listened carefully to the words of the masters, and had a general understanding of their temperament and resourcefulness in his heart. In fact, when Fang Cai Lin Luo was opposed by Huang Jiang, she also wanted to speak for her, but her identity was really embarrassing, so it was not suitable for Tang to speak out. Fortunately, Lin Xun had a straightforward and refreshing temperament, and he returned it with one move.

Now she is in a complicated mood, among this group of people, the only people she can rely on are Liu Wugang and Lin Xun's sister and brother. Needless to say, Liu Wugang has taken care of her from the beginning of the road, but he doesn't know why he is dependent on Lin Xun and the others. Was it because of the extraordinary martial arts that day in the ring? Or was it because Lin Luo inexplicably saved his own kick? Or is it because of ...... The two of them risked life and death to rescue themselves from the bandits?

Maybe it's all three. Although I didn't know anything about them, just for the sake of them saving themselves without reciprocation, there was no need for suspicion and rustiness.

But even when she told herself like this, the black blood stains on the bank of the river, and Lin Luo's hesitant movements when he took the sword, would still inexplicably rush into her eyes, making her feel a little elusive. Is it really what I don't want to think...... Lin Luolin Xun is really a "chivalrous" who kills people without blinking?
