Chapter Seventy-Four: Journey to the West
A boat is all that Jiang Linxian has, and without a boat means that he can't make money by ferrying, and he can't go into the lake to fish, which means that his life is unsustainable.
Jiang Linxian was stunned for a moment in the face of the sudden fire, and hurriedly picked up the bucket on the boat to scoop water to put out the fire. But the rocket was loaded with oil, and the water poured on it had the opposite effect, and the fire did not go away but became stronger, which made Jiang Linxian so distressed that he wanted to die with the ship.
Martin and Zhang Yuanlai ran to the shore and shouted at Jiang Linxian, "Come on!" This fire can't be extinguished, don't you still have an old lady and brother waiting at home? ”
This sound woke Jiang Linxian up, and he hurriedly rushed ashore, but before his feet touched the ground, he immediately rushed back to the boat, opened a dark board and didn't know what to find. Martin was in a hurry, it was time to burn his eyebrows, and the boatman was still thinking about things.
Jiang Linxian's clothes were on fire, he didn't have time to go ashore, so he had to jump into the lake to extinguish the fire, in the cold winter, the cold water was biting, Jiang Linxian who was soaked all over his body climbed ashore, the whole person was shivering, his lips were purple, and he was holding a burden in his arms, he didn't care about the cold, squatted on the ground and carefully opened the baggage, it was a spirit card, he respectfully wiped the water stains on it.
At the same time that the other party shot a rocket and the hull caught fire, the landing seemed to be deceived, and the crossbow arrow that had just been put down immediately raised up, aimed, and ignited, and at the moment when the trigger was pulled to launch the arrow, Zhen Feng shouted: "Don't kill them!" With a slight shake of the lander, the arrow flew out and exploded on the water surface of the opponent's bow, and the person standing at the bow was injured by the debris ejected from the explosion.
Shooting in this position proves that as long as the landing wants their lives, they can definitely shoot, and shooting in front of the bow of the ship is a warning.
"Why! Just to get them back to talk? ”
"They're dead, and this killing chase will continue. If they are alive, maybe the game on both sides will escalate, and there will be no need to kill to solve the problem. As long as they dare to compete with their brains, I can make them doubt life. ”
"What if you're wrong? Maybe they want your life even more! ”
"Then we have to see if they have the ability, as long as they dare to come again, I will make them regret being reincarnated, they will be miserable when they die, and they won't even recognize their parents after they die."
As soon as the landing sounded powerful, could there be anything more powerful than black powder? He asked, "What are you going to do with them?" ”
Zhen Feng shrugged and said, "I haven't thought about it yet." ”
At this time, Jiang Linxian was wiping the spirit card, Zhen Feng walked over and patted him on the shoulder, Jiang Linxian tears flowed down his eyes, and muttered to himself: "Dad, the child is not filial, and he can't even look at the only boat you left......"
This unprovoked catastrophe could have been avoided by Jiang Linxian, as long as he fled with the other boats just now, but he chose to stick to his heart, and in the end he ended up like this.
Zhen Feng remembered that time in his memory, the more honest and trustworthy he was, and the easier he was to be bullied. Sincere people should not be wronged.
Zhen Feng took out his only remaining bag of gold leaves, stuffed it to Jiang Linxian and said, "Xiao Jiang, we can't stand you, we have tired you, and we haven't even kept the boat left by your father." This money is considered to be our loss, you can go buy another ship. ”
Jiang Linxian stood up suddenly, pushed Zhen Feng's hand away, the purse that Zhen Feng was holding was beaten aside, Jiang Linxian said angrily: "I admit that I am unlucky, I don't need you to pity me!" ”
Martin picked up the purse and said angrily: "It's really kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs, when have you ever seen such a wronged person?" ”
Jiang Linxian squatted down again, lost his mind for a while holding the spirit card, and said with a guilty face: "I am poor, but my mother taught me not to eat the food that comes from me, so I can't take this kind of money, I have to earn it by myself." I'm sure I'll earn a boat, yes, I can! ”
Zhen Feng remembered a book, "Beyond Inferiority" by psychologist Adler, some inferiority inspires people to achieve better development, so as to surpass themselves and pursue superiority. There is such an idea of self-improvement and self-reliance, but many people in this era do not have it, and more people succumb to reality, and their inferiority complex produces more anger.
Zhen Feng was very happy about such an inferiority complex, he interrupted Martin Gang and wanted to continue, saying, "Okay, I have backbone, I like it." Xiao Jiang, do you want to make money quickly? ”
Jiang Linxian looked at Zhen Feng in surprise, in fact, just now he sprinkled the resentment in his heart on the person who was good to him, and he couldn't care about it, plus Martin's words, he was even more embarrassed, but he didn't want to apologize or accept other people's kindness for the sake of face. But Zhen Feng was not angry, he was very strange, and when he asked such a strange thing, he couldn't help but nodded, and then shook his head and said: "I don't do anything about blocking the road, robbing, killing people and stealing goods......"
Zhen Feng laughed when he heard it, this boatman mistakenly thought that making money quickly meant blocking the road and robbing, killing people and stealing goods, and he was probably frightened by the "rush" and fixed thinking just now. He hurriedly shook his head and explained: "Don't worry, what we are doing must be reasonable and legal, and it is a good thing worthy of the country and the people." This bag of money is your salary in advance, and you can keep it at home to support your family, but you have to come with me, and when you earn this bag of money, it is up to you whether you leave or keep yourself. And I can also promise you that if you don't do it legally and compliantly, you can leave at any time, and the money is considered liquidated damages. ”
Jiang Linxian hesitated for a moment, Martin can be said that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry, and said: "This bag of gold leaves can be exchanged for twenty yuan at least, where have you seen such a good owner?" ”
"No, no." Jiang Linxian anxiously explained: "Seeing that you are people who have traveled far away, I have to go home and ask my mother first." ”
"Yes, my parents are not far away, and there must be a way to travel. You go, we'll wait for you. ”
Jiang Linxian changed his dry clothes and hurriedly returned home, and Zhen Feng and his party just took the opportunity to eat some dry food to rest. Shi Geng approached to ask for wine at this time, and Zhen Feng really gave a small pot.
"You don't have black powder in it, do you?" Shi Geng was a little suspicious of Zhen Feng's generosity for a while, and he was also very stubborn: "Don't you want to use wine to buy the Sprinkle family, and don't think that those people want to kill the Sprinkle family, if you save the Sprinkle family, the Sprinkle family will succumb to you." ”
"Whether you say it or not, what you think, it doesn't matter now. You can kill the captives so as not to waste wine and food, but if you tell the truth, I will spare your life. ”
The more this happened, the more uncomfortable Shi felt in his heart, and he took the wine jug and poured it into his mouth, but the wine was too strong, and he didn't dare to pour himself violently with his previous experience. He asked curiously: "Brother Zhen, now the Sprinkle family is useless, you tell the Sprinkle family, why can you get the Sprinkle family drunk with half a pound of wine that day?" Are you sure you haven't been drugged? ”
"You've been thinking about this for a long time. It doesn't hurt to tell you, in addition to the urgency of the wine you drank that day, the main reason is the high degree of the wine. Let's put it this way, the wine that day was stronger than what you drink now, and those are all raw and unblended. If you don't get drunk like that, you'll be blinding me with all your efforts. ”
Everything was in someone else's layout, Shi even more resigned himself to his fate, and continued to pour a sip of liquor into his mouth, he didn't want to think about the future.
Not long after, Jiang Linxian came with a burden on his back, and there seemed to be tears and five paw prints on his face, which seemed to have been beaten.
After accepting Jiang Linxian, Zhen Feng suddenly felt that he was a Tang monk who didn't understand martial arts, and formed a Journey to the West Heavenly Group. The most agile and capable of landing is Sun Wukong, the fat Martin occasionally shoots is Zhu Bajie, Zhang Yuanlai is a monk, and he can only do a little help is Sha Wujing, but it is not appropriate to call him Sha Monk, after all, he is a Taoist. Now there is a hard-working and filial piety and honesty Jiang Linxian, who was originally a boatman in the water, just a white dragon horse, and Qi Huo'er...... And the captive Shi Geng is the monster who was surrendered, and the five big and three rough looks dare not be said to be a goblin, and if he says it, he is humiliated by so many beautiful goblins in his memory.
