Chapter 44: The Difficulty of Sinking the Boat

"Boatman!" Huang Jiang was suddenly furious, and turned around to pull out the boatman in the tent. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info It's just that Lin Luo stepped forward and blocked in front of him, and said hurriedly: "Don't act rashly!" ”

"What do you mean, he showed us the wrong way, and you told me not to act rashly!"

"Sister, what's going on?" Lin Xun knew that something was wrong, and his face was full of sadness.

Although Wu Sheng's face was solemn and murderous, he was not as excited as Huang Jiang, and at this time he just asked Lin Luo with a tense face: "What does it mean to be a woman?" ”

Lin Luo frowned, turned his head to look at the canopy, and saw that there was no movement inside, so he relaxed a little, turned around and explained to the three of them in a low voice: "We can't be in a hurry now, in case we startle the snake, we will still suffer." ”

"Then what do you say!" Huang Jiang lowered his voice a little, but he still couldn't stop being full of anger, and pointed to the canopy of the boat and said, "Now that he is not our person on this boat, how many of us can't deal with him?" It's fine if he doesn't know it, but if he really has a thief's heart, I'll kill him immediately! ”

"Can you be quiet? Didn't you hear my sister just say don't startle the snake? Do you want people to know that you have a loud voice? Lin Xun was so angry with him that he said angrily with a red neck.

Huang Jiang gasped and glanced at Lin Xun, his anger weakened a little.

"Isn't it easy to get his life?" Lin Luo's voice became cold, his eyes stared at Huang Jiang coldly, and he said word by word, "It's just that now, we don't have any useful information in our hands, what can we do if we kill him?" Besides, if we are really targeted, then people are in the open and I am in the dark, and our every move will be controlled by them. Have you thought of these? ”

When Huang Jiang heard Lin Luo's words, he felt that he was indeed reckless just now, so he snorted and stopped talking.

"Oh, that's not right!" Lin Xun suddenly clapped his head and looked at Huang Jiang with a suspicious face, "It stands to reason that this boatman was bought by you at a price long ago, there are many boats at the dock, and the most important thing is that the boatmen are all registered with the government." Even if he has a thief's heart, he doesn't have the courage to be a thief! Brother Huang, it can't be that you have a problem here, right? ”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Huang Jiang immediately replied, "I haven't touched the oars once since last night, what good is it for me to go the wrong way?" ”

Lin Xun sighed, closed his eyes and opened them again, and said helplessly: "Of course I didn't mean this. I mean, when you went to pick someone to buy to be a boatman, did anything go wrong? ”

As soon as these words came out, Huang Jiang and Wu Sheng hadn't reacted yet, Lin Luo immediately understood in her heart, she glanced at Lin Xun quickly, turned her head to look at Huang Jiang, stared at him, and asked, "When you were looking for someone, did you take the right path?" ”

This time, Huang Jiang didn't reply immediately, and his face suddenly changed, and after glancing at Wu Sheng, the expressions of both of them changed slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he shook his head solemnly.

"What!" Lin Xun was shocked and shouted dumbfounded: "You guys are really good!" ”

"You don't understand!" Huang Jiang hurriedly explained, "Who wants to come out at night to pick up work?" No matter how much money we give, everyone knows that the river is not very peaceful at night, and it is very tiring, so few people agree. Let alone...... Besides, we don't have that much money......"

"So you just found one at random? What's the matter? Lin Xun continued to ask.

"I don't know where it came from, I only know that I used to work as a boatman, and my home is near the ferry." Wu Sheng replied.

The four of them were all silent, standing there relatively silent, Huang Jiang was even more resentful, but he also blamed himself for being careless, so he sighed fiercely and remained silent.

Wu Sheng's heart was overturned. After listening to the remarks just now, he felt more and more that the Lin brothers and sisters were not so simple, they were already beyond their reach, but they were so not to be underestimated in terms of planning, and he couldn't help but value them a little more. But in addition, he became more curious about the identities and origins of the two of them.

Just when the four of them were suspicious, they saw a little brother walking out of the tent, and when they saw them, they just wanted to say something, but they turned their heads around to look around, and finally asked, "Where is the boatman?" ”

The four of them were shocked: "Not in there?" ”

The little brother looked dazed, and when he heard this, he opened the curtain and looked inside, straightened up and shook his head, "No." ”

"Oh no, wake them up!"

Huang Jiang and Wu Sheng immediately ran in and shouted for the brothers inside, and the boat was suddenly in chaos. The already crowded hull of the ship, coupled with the large amount of cargo, some of those people fell to the ground and some stood up, and for a while you touched me and I touched you, stumbling and shaking the hull of the ship.

At this time, the surroundings are white, there is no boat and no one on the river, the sky has been brightened, the dawn breaks through the night sky, and a red light pierces out in the sky, and a little light jumps on the surface of this faint river, which is dizzying.

"It must have been him who heard what we were talking just now......," Lin Luo said bitterly, and when he was about to take a step, he suddenly froze there, his steps seemed to be nailed, and his face was as white as paper. Seeing her like this, Lin Xun panicked for a while: "Sister, what's wrong?" ”

I saw that Lin Luo didn't say a word, raised his head and stared around, his eyes were as sharp as a sword. In the chaos, Lin Xun also looked up following her gaze, but it was better not to look at it, and he was stunned when he saw it.

At some point, the boat had drifted to the center of the river, and in a moment, it was dozens of feet away from the riverbank. The surrounding trees are lush and green, the direction is difficult to discern, and there is not a single figure in sight.

Lin Xun was shocked: "When did this ship move here?" ”

Just when the two of them were helpless, they only heard a shout from inside the tent: "Not good! The boat is leaking! ”

There was a moment of chaos, and these words simply added fuel to the fire, making everyone have no master. Liu Wugang suddenly came out of the tent, with a panicked face, and shouted while rushing towards the stern: "It's over, it's over, it's such a big crack in the bottom of the boat!" Heroine, hero, I ...... I don't want to die yet! You have to save me! As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed the corner of Lin Xun's clothes, holding on to it, with a handful of snot and tears on his face.

Lin Xun was a little at a loss, and turned to look at Lin Luo. I saw that her face changed instantly, her lips were closed tightly and she didn't say a word, and she lowered her head to search for something on the board. When her eyes caught the rope, a flash of light flashed in her eyes, and she kicked it and threw it up, and then her arm was raised, and then the rope fell abruptly into her hand.

"Sister......

Lin Xun was about to ask, when he saw the next movement, Lin Luo turned around with a solemn expression, and his eyes were firmly fixed on a low tree on the shore like an eagle. After locking on, she grasped the rope tightly with her right hand, took a deep breath, and quickly threw the rope out with the strength of luck in her body.

The rope swept across the water like lightning, casting a shadow in the water that it was too late to see, and then fleeting. The next moment the rope was firmly attached to the low tree, and the other end was firmly grasped by her, and in an instant a long line was reflected on the water, connecting the hull of the ship to the shore.

With a force on her arm, she gritted her teeth and tugged at the rope, and then the rope was firmly closed. After glancing at Lin Xun, the two looked at each other, tacit understanding, Lin Luo threw the rope in his hand to her, and turned around and entered the canopy.

Liu Wugang was shocked again, and after watching all this in amazement, the shouting stopped, but his hands were still clutching Lin Xun's sleeves. Lin Xun was in a hurry, and after taking the rope, he shook off Liu Wugang and said, "What's the use of you shouting now?" Pull the rope with me, hurry! ”

Liu Wugang almost fell to the ground, but only after standing firm did he react, hurriedly agreed, stepped forward and grabbed the rope, and tied it to the stern stake with Lin Xun, and then the two of them pulled it desperately, getting closer to the shore little by little.

The boat shook more and more, and the water at the bottom of the boat slowly overflowed, and some of the heavy wooden boxes were soaked in water, but because the good wood had a good seal, the water did not seep into the water at all. Five or six people were terrified to move the boxes out, knowing that they wouldn't last long, but they knew that these boxes were their lives, and they couldn't leave them behind until the last minute.

Lin Luo lifted the curtain, searched eagerly for the people in it, and suddenly grabbed the person who was carrying the box next to him: "What about Miss Tang?" ”

The man was flustered and confused, with a heavy wooden box in his hand, and the noise of people and the constant sound of water, so he didn't hear her words clearly, so he hurriedly said, "I don't know, I don't know!" "As he spoke, he was about to run out.

I saw that before his feet landed, the placket on his chest was grabbed by a pair of hands, causing his whole body to lean back, and the wooden box in his hand fell off instantly and smashed to his feet. "Hey...... Y-What are you doing? ”

"Miss Tang was next to you last night, but she disappeared this morning, you said you didn't know?"

"I ...... I really don't know, woman! The man hurriedly looked back, and after searching to no avail, he realized that Miss Tang was really missing, and his face couldn't help but turn white with fright.

At this time, Huang Jiang heard the sound and walked over, held on to the swaying hull, and shouted at the man with a nervous face: "What do you think of the people, where is Miss Tang?" ”

"Big brother! Big brother, I really don't know, when I woke up, I saw that the boat was leaking, I ...... I don't know anything about it! ”

Lin Luo knew that it was useless to ask again, so he let go of the man with one hand, and his expression was gloomy, as if he was covered with a layer of frost, which suddenly made people feel cold beyond their reach. She lowered her head slightly, contemplated with her eyebrows, and slowly retreated step by step, everything around her seemed to have fled away, and her eyes and ears were gone.

"Woman, Lin Woman?" Huang Jiang shouted, slightly worried. As soon as Wu Sheng sorted out all the boxes outside the canopy, he saw that something had happened on the other side of the Yellow River, so he hurriedly came over and glanced at Lin Luo, as if he had guessed what she was going to do, his expression immediately became serious, and he said in a muffled voice: "Woman, if there is anything, let's talk about it first." ”

Lin Xun knew that something had happened to Tangguxi, but he couldn't easily let go of the rope at this moment, the hull of the boat shook more and more violently, and if he relaxed a little, the boat might capsize, not to mention that the goods were gathered outside, and he would slip into the water if he was not careful. He could only pull the rope with everyone while shouting: "Sister, Miss Tang is important, you go and save her!" ”

As soon as he spoke, he heard two figures burst out from the bushes on the shore ahead, each holding a sharp knife, and one ran behind the low tree, and stretched out his hand to cut the rope.

A boatload of people screamed and cursed and slaughtered the man. Lin Xun suddenly calmed down, glanced at Lin Luo through the chaotic figure, and after getting her nod, he let go of the rope and said to Liu Wugang: "Keep pulling!" Then he turned and came to the wooden box.

At this time, the boat was more than ten feet away from the shore, Lin Xun quickly raised his head, estimated the distance, and then aimed at a box on it, and kicked it out.

"Hey, what are you doing!" Huang Jiang shouted, his face red and his ears red.

Before he could finish speaking, the box had already fallen on the surface of the river, only a few feet from the shore. It was too late, and when the black shadow on the shore raised the knife in his hand, Lin Luo flew up from the boat and crossed the river, pointed his foot on the box, and then turned over and rolled to the shore after borrowing his strength, and turned back after landing on the ground, without dragging the mud and water.

Huang Jiang was worried about the box and was about to use force against Lin Xun, but he saw that the box had floated steadily on the river, and Lin Nuxia was able to land on the river bank with the power of the box, and suddenly realized and understood. Just as he stared at the shore, in the blink of an eye, he saw a bloody light rushing into the sky, splashing in the river.

The black shadow behind the tree suddenly fell to the ground, and before the other could fight back, the sharp knife in his hand fell to the ground.
