Chapter 098: Self-Help
Shen Youqing didn't notice the boat slowly approaching. ∝ 8∝8∝ read ∝ books, .◆.o+
Huo Ying suddenly stood up and looked at the fog that was gradually dispersing not far away.
The two were tied together, Huo Ying suddenly moved, and she was inevitably dragged and almost fell on the board.
"Huo Ying, you-"
"King Ning is here!"
Huo Ying's voice successfully stopped Shen Youqing's anger, she stood up with some difficulty, and sure enough, she saw the boat she had seen before, the dark red hull brought a cool breeze, and it was getting closer and closer.
Shen Youqing was really excited, they wouldn't be buried with this group of water bandits......
When the ship was getting closer and closer, the bandits on this side naturally discovered it, but they did not rush around, on the contrary, they lined up under the leadership of the scholar bandits, and they did not seem to be afraid, even welcoming and waiting.
I only heard Huo Ying sneer: "It's really well-trained." ”
"Master Huo, don't be busy praising them first, let's find a way to escape by ourselves."
didn't hear Huo Ying's answer, but the voice of the water bandit boss came, "The prince is here, and he is not welcome!" ”
For a long time, Xiao Yan's voice came from the wind, "This king didn't pay you off that day, it was this king's mistake...... Let the king's men go! ”
Shen Youqing and Huo Ying looked at each other for a moment, and couldn't help but wonder: Why is Xiao Yan's momentum so weak?
Or the scholar and the bandit opened his mouth first: "They are in my hands, maybe we can use them to escape, if they are released, how can I guarantee the lives of the brothers on the ship?" The prince still don't joke. ”
"This king is not joking, let this king's people go first, this king is in the past, the threat of a prince is always greater than that of a mere fourth-grade official."
Xiao Yan is asking them to come up with ideas?
As soon as Xiao Yan's words fell, the scholar bandit ordered someone to take the pedal. The distance between the two boats is not far, and this pedal hits up, just connecting the two boats.
"Lord Wang, we are old acquaintances, others don't know your thoughts, but I know it clearly."
"Because of this, aren't you going to ask this king to come over and talk about it?"
There was a moment of silence. Hearing that, the scholar said: "It's not impossible for the prince to come over." But the prince can only come by himself, if not, these two men will probably have to feed the fish. ”
"Good!"
Xiao Yan's firm voice came quickly. There was no hesitation.
Shen Youqing frowned and pulled the rope on her body, I don't know what kind of knot this ties, depending on how she pulls it. I can't pull the rope.
At this time, Huo Ying said quietly: "Fourth Miss, don't waste your efforts. Many of them are fishermen, and they are the most proficient in knots, and if you don't have a knife, you can't escape. ”
Shen Youqing looked at him angrily. Why is this coming to him, but he is praising this group of water bandits......
"Lord Huo, don't be busy praising them first, you should think about how we should get out of here, do you really let the prince come to this ship alone?"
Huo Ying was stunned for a moment. Hearing it, Shen Youqing's tone was very angry. faintly flustered, afraid that she didn't even notice it.
The corners of Huo Ying's mouth were slightly hooked, and a wry smile was revealed......
Shen Youqing suddenly saw the bandit standing in front of him guarding them with a knife in his hand, so he touched Huo Ying's shoulder and motioned for him to help; Most of the people in front of them gathered together to "greet" Xiao Yan, so even if there was any movement here, they would probably not notice it, so with a hint of luck, Shen Youqing and Huo Ying were ready to trick the people guarding them and use the knife in his hand to untie themselves.
"This big brother, can you come over for a moment?"
"What's wrong?" The man looked at the two of them impatiently, and stayed away from them vigilantly.
Seeing him like this, Shen Youqing fell to the ground holding his stomach and shouted in pain: "My stomach hurts, this big brother, you loosen my ties......"
Huo Ying couldn't help laughing, and was glared at fiercely by Shen Youqing, and then began to ask Shen Youqing to intercede.
I don't know if Shen Youqing acted too similarly, that person really came closer, "Don't play tricks on me......"
Shen Youqing and Huo Ying glanced at each other, and when the person was not paying attention, he flew up and landed on the back of his neck cleanly, hitting the dumb door point accurately, the person fainted directly, Huo Ying and Shen Youqing raised their feet to catch him together, so as not to make a sound and be known by the people in front.
Shen Youqing took out the knife in the water bandit's hand, quickly cut the rope, and then gave the knife to Huo Ying.
"Fourth Miss, where are you going?"
Huo Ying grabbed Shen Youqing, since Xiao Yan was already on this boat at this time, he would not really make a little preparation.
Shen Youqing struggled for a moment, but Huo Ying didn't let go, "King Ning is in the middle of that group of water bandits now, what's the use of you rushing up now, if you alarm them, wouldn't it put the prince in danger?" ”
Shen Youqing looked at him blankly, thinking about it and thinking that what he said was reasonable, so he stayed where he was.
"How are we leaving?"
Huo Ying looked around, and found that there was a gap on the west side, which was left unattended, and if they jumped into the water, swam around the boat, and soon reached the big boat.
Shen Youqing's gaze was in the middle of the group of bandits, and finally locked on Xiao Yan's face.
Across the crowd, you can still see a quiet smile, it seems that he can be like this at any time, and all around him is the elegance of the wind and the moon.
Shen Youqing suddenly thought about what kind of mood would he feel if he stood by that person's side......
"Fourth Miss, can you swim?"
Huo Ying interrupted her thoughts, and she suddenly realized, what was she thinking now?
Shen Youqing shook his head to expel this thought, and looked at Huo Ying again, what did he ask just now, will she swim?
"No, it won't."
Hearing Shen Youqing's simple answer, Huo Ying had a hurt expression on her face, in this way, even if they could jump out of the boat, they would not be able to get there safely, and besides, even if she could swim, it was probably impossible for her to really just leave......
Shen Youqing approached the water bandit in front of him, wanting to hear what Xiao Yan was saying.
"Xiao Yan, do you remember me?"
"Naturally, I remember that this king didn't kill them all at the beginning, just to give you a chance, but you don't seem to have grasped this opportunity."
Xiao Yan's face was calm and calm, but only he knew how anxious he was in his heart, from the time he got on the boat, he had been looking for the face he was familiar with, but he never found it......
And the scholar water bandit seemed to have noticed something, and strode towards Shen Youqing Huo Ying's side, Shen Youqing was shocked, Huo Ying grabbed her hand again, stopped her panic with his eyes, pulled her to the side, and threw a stone that he didn't know what it was used for into the river......
"They escaped ......"
The heavy stone fell into the river, and the water splashed almost on the face of the scholarly bandit, and he looked down at the waves, almost angry.
"Oh no, the sails are down."
His men shouted in a panic that if the sails were lowered, the ship would not be able to move on, but it was clear that such a large ship could not paddle forward......
"Fourth Miss, let's go."
A small incident made them so flustered, which was also unexpected by Shen Youqing, and the person who created this panic was Huo Ying, and they also took advantage of the chaos to quietly walk to Xiao Yan's side.
Xiao Yan was going to look for them, but in a blink of an eye, he saw them appear in front of him, and he was intuitively overjoyed.
"Lord Wang, are you okay?"
As soon as Shen Youqing asked this sentence, Xiao Yan's hand was held, "Go back first." ”
The boat board was not removed, and the distance between the two boats was not far, and after three steps and two steps, Shen Youqing crossed to the big boat opposite, and Xiao Yan followed.
Huo Ying stepped on the board, and the scholar bandit had already reacted, and immediately walked to the pedal and cut off the board with a knife......
Shen Youqing was shocked, and immediately grabbed Huo Ying's hand, but fortunately, he didn't get out of the way, and was tightly grasped by Shen Youqing, but her strength was weak, and she felt struggling for only a moment.
"Xiao Yan!"
In just an instant, Xiao Yan's hand reached over, grabbed Huo Ying's hand with Shen Youqing, and brought him up; Huo Ying himself is also a kung fu person, his body jumped up dexterously, and he stood firm on the board with one turnover.
An arrow flew straight in, and it was heading at the position where Huo Ying was hanging just now, and the arrow was nailed deeply, only to see the black arrow feathers trembling slightly......
Shen Youqing looked at Huo Ying with a pale face, and suddenly smiled: "You almost died." ”
Huo Ying only smiled silently.
Shen Youqing said secretly: It's okay, it's okay, Huo Ying has nothing to do, and grandpa won't blame himself...... (To be continued.) )
