Chapter 31 Yangzhou, Xie Lang

85_85797The last rays of sunlight also sank into the horizon.

The passenger boats moored behind the peaks could not be truly quiet, because the sound of drums, fights, and torches that lit up the sky on the water and the sky on the river not far away shone through from behind the peaks, turning the night into a noisy and murderous atmosphere.

Ji Ji's heart itched.

She, like everyone else, stood at the stern of the boat, listening and talking in the direction from which the fire came.

This excitement lasted until dawn.

Almost as soon as it was dawn, the young man reappeared in the boat, and he shouted from afar, "Ladies and gentlemen, you may go." ”

Everyone on board cheered, and under the command of the captain of the boat, the big boat began to turn and sail towards the middle of the river.

Until the big boat was moving, the young man was still standing on one side of the boat.

Just as the big boat passed by the flat boat, Ji Ji's heart moved, and she asked loudly to the young man, "This Langjun, are you also going to Jiankang?" ”

As soon as Ji Ji's words came out, many people on the boat turned their heads to look.

The young man glanced at Ji Ji, pressed the hat on his head, and said, "I don't know about this." With that, he drifted away in a flat boat.

Seeing that Ji Ji was still looking at the man, Sun Fu whispered, "Girl, what are you thinking?" "This time, Ji Ji is expected to be in everything, and her prestige is getting higher and higher, Sun Fu and others thought she had an idea when they saw her speak.

Ji Ji glanced back at Sun Fu and said, "I just thought that if I could walk with them, I would really be worry-free." ”

Ji Ji feels very bad now, she thinks, she has made the same mistakes in her previous life. In her previous life, she was better at judging the situation than her peers, that is to say, she liked to cling to the strong when she was in her bones. Undoubtedly, Xie Lang is a strong man, she wants to walk with him, subconsciously, safety is only one part, another part, but she is still thinking about being able to cling to him.

That's not good. Ji Ji pursed her lips and secretly thought, in my life, no matter what, I must live with self-respect and self-respect, no matter what, I can't cling to others anymore!

In this world, a tree without roots can only be strong for a while, and if it wants to bloom for a thousand days, it must have a solid foundation.

In Ji Ji's cranky thoughts, the passenger ship had come to the middle of the river, and after turning the bow of the boat, the ship began to accelerate as the sail was raised.

After a while, the passenger ship passed through several peaks and came to the place where Xie Lang besieged and killed the bandits yesterday. Just like that, there were hundreds of corpses floating on the shallows of the river on that side, as well as some weapons and boat boards.

At this time, there was a sound of vomiting on Ji Ji's side, but it was the children of the scholar clan from the Shu land, who lost his temper after seeing the corpse.

In the sound of vomiting one after another, the delicate girl who liked to talk the most still shouted in Shu Yin, "Nong hates these soldiers the most, they get some blood and corpses at every turn, they are not elegant at all, they are too uncivilized." ”

Her words were ignored.

The passenger ship sailed downwind, and when it was noon, the captain came, and he said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the front is the dock of Wuxian in Yangzhou, there is something wrong with the ship, and it will stay there for two days, and it will be repaired as soon as it is repaired." Almost as soon as the voice of the captain of the ship fell, the voices of bitterness and dissatisfaction continued to be heard. However, although everyone was uncomfortable, no one objected. Because, the ship is halfway to the middle of the way, and the stop due to various accidents is a common thing to encounter when going out in this era. Or it can be said that for such a thousand miles from Jingzhou to Jiankang, if there is no problem in the middle, it can be called lucky.

When the boat boss spoke, Ji Ji's eyes kept staring at his face, and from time to time, she glanced at several boatmen not far away.

When everyone dispersed, Ji Ji turned her head sideways and whispered to Sun Fu: "As soon as the ship docks, we will unload and leave!" ”

"What?" Sun Fu was shocked, and he whispered: "Girl, but what's wrong?" ”

Ji Ji whispered: "I can't say it either, I just feel that something is wrong." She commanded categorically: "Tell me to go down and do as I command." ”

"Yes."

In the evening, the dock of Wuxian County gradually appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Looking at the rows of houses on both sides of the river, and looking at the visible Yangzhou City in the distance, Ji Ji's heart settled down and thought: Fortunately, this is a prosperous area.

Almost as soon as the passenger ship docked, Uncle Li and the others got busy, and when they saw them moving boxes and leading horses, the boss of the boat ran over and asked repeatedly, "Where are you going?" This ship repair may take two days, or it may only take half a day, and the delay in moving the goods around. ”

Ji Ji glanced at the boat boss with a not very good face, pressed the yarn hat, and smiled: "No, we will get off the boat here." ”

"How's that going to work?" The captain of the ship shouted, "Didn't the guest go to Jiankang?" ”

Ji Ji's voice came coldly from behind the gauze hat, "We have changed our minds and will meet our relatives and friends in Yangzhou before leaving." Speaking of this, she saluted everyone, and when she turned to those Shu Di scholars, she paused slightly, and said loudly: "The scenery of this Yangzhou city is good, if you are not in a hurry, why not go slowly?" She was only suspicious, and she didn't dare to say it too clearly, and after dropping such a sentence, Ji Ji turned around and began to beckon the servants on the road.

Behind him, the two middle-aged men of the Shudi family looked at Ji Ji's back and were silent.

After a while, a middle-aged man suddenly ordered: "Inform down, let everyone unload and disembark, and we will also go to Yangzhou City to play for a while before leaving." ”

As soon as the middle-aged man's order came out, all the children were in an uproar, and a young man asked, "Third uncle, it's too troublesome to load and unload the goods, right?" ”

The middle-aged man turned his head and glared at him, he glanced at the boat boss who was hurrying over, and said in a low voice, "What do you know?" This is someone's territory, when a few people sneak up in the middle of the night, kill people, and drive the boat, who can tell afterwards? ”

When the middle-aged man said that his family's face changed greatly, the boss of the boat came running, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and his voice was fluttering, "What are you doing?" There is a little problem with this boat, old man, it can be repaired in half a day at most, so why do you want to make a mess? ”

But the more panicked the boat boss was, the more resolute the middle-aged man became. Because, whether it is Ji Ji and his party or these Shu guests, their shipping fare has been given enough when they get on the ship. Leaving like this, the ship boss will not be damaged in the slightest. The fact that he is still so flustered when there is no loss is enough to show that there is a problem.

So, after a few whistles and a few orders, the Shu family also moved their own carriages and horses off the ship, and in a blink of an eye, there were only some inconspicuous small merchants left on the huge passenger ship.

Standing in the thick night fog, a boatman quietly approached, he approached the motionless boat boss, and whispered, "Uncle, do you want to do it?" ”

With a "snap", the boat boss turned around and slapped him, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "What are you doing?" The remaining two or three shabby goods, is it worth Lao Tzu to lose even his reputation and territory? But it turned out that the perennial war and the destruction of the country made all the people who walked outside have their own set of things. Like the boss of this ship, he is like the treasurer of the whole world, when there is no great profit, they are just businessmen, and they make a hard money on a trip. And if they encounter this kind of fat man like the Shu Di Shi clan, they will not hesitate to turn into bandits and kill people and rob money halfway. This kind of business can usually be eaten for half a lifetime once done, and once it is successful, it is a lot of money.

But said that the Shudi family, after leaving the dock, the middle-aged man said: "Go and check, where is the little lang from Jingdi, let's follow a little closer, and we will have a companion with him all the way!" ”

A young man heard this, but he muttered, "Third uncle, don't you need it?" That's just a small family......"

"What a portal to talk about when you walk outside!" The third uncle interrupted him unceremoniously and said in a deep voice: "That little man is young, but he is observant and thoughtful, and acts decisively, it is definitely not a thing in the pool, let's be with him, safe!" ”

Just when the third uncle said that it was safe to be with Ji Ji, Ji Ji was saying to Sun Fu: "Find a way to find out the whereabouts of Xie Jialangjun, it's best for us to follow him all the way, although it is slow, it is better to be safe." ”

"Xie Jialangjun?" Sun Fu was confused, and he asked puzzledly: "Didn't Xie Jialangjun go to Jiankang last year?" How did the girl know he was in Yangzhou? ”

Ji Ji came back to her senses, she herself was deeply impressed by Xie Lang, and she recognized him at a glance, but Sun Fu and the others didn't know that it was Xie Lang himself who robbed and killed the river bandits on the river.

She didn't want to argue, so she directly ordered: "If you are told to go, go and ask more?" ”

"Yes!"

In the kung fu of talking, Ji Xi's team also joined the team of Nashu, because Yangzhou City had been closed at this time, and the two groups found an inn in the most prosperous street in Wu County for one night.

Perhaps everyone was vigilant, and the night passed peacefully. Early the next morning, the two teams set off towards Yangzhou City.

At this time, Yangzhou City, in Ji Ji's opinion, was not as prosperous as Jingzhou City. A group of people walked around the city at will, and then found a large restaurant to prepare for a meal

Ji Ji also said that she wanted Sun Fu to inquire about Xie Lang's whereabouts, who knows, as soon as she sat down, she heard the guests at the table in front of her discussing: "I heard that Xie Jia Linlang is in trouble." "What? With such a child of the Dashi clan, does anyone dare to do it? "It's not embarrassing. It was someone from the Xie family who contracted typhoid fever and infected several families in Wu County. Hey, in the past three hundred years, it has always been the first time that typhoid fever came out, and now the entire Wu County is panicked, no matter how beautiful the Xie family's reputation is, it can't resist his death. Now, the people of Wu County are clamoring to drive them away, but in this world, where can they go? I heard that our Yangzhou county guard has repeatedly ordered that they are not allowed to enter the city. ”

"What, actually infected with typhoid fever?" "What can I do? We Yangzhou people won't be infected, right? "This Xie Jialinlang is unlucky." "What you said is outrageous, what kind of family is the Chen Jun Xie family? Maybe they'll be able to get a miracle doctor? "Miracle doctor? In this year, how can there be any miracle doctor? In my opinion, Xie Jialinlang is unlucky this time, and he has to save him, unless the medical saint of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Zhongjing, who wrote "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", is resurrected, or Zhang Zhongjing's "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", which has long been lost, suddenly appears in the world, otherwise, just the name of spreading the evil epidemic is enough for this famous celebrity to eat a pot! ”

The surrounding discussion continued, but Ji Ji, who was holding chopsticks, lowered her head, held the water with chopsticks, and wrote lightly on a few points, if anyone paid attention, they would definitely be able to see that she wrote the words "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" and "Guizhi Soup".

Ji Ji, who lowered her head, pursed her lips tightly at this time. Just when those people mentioned Zhang Zhongjing and the book "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", suddenly, a volume of clear text suddenly appeared in her mind, and the title of the book was "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases"!
