1247 Crossing the river

Xiao Han was still proud of his ability to make a name, and he didn't even hear that people had imagined him as a little Erlang running in the hotel.

"Xiao Er, Erlang! Yes, it's quite smooth! Nodding with satisfaction, Xiao Han put his hands behind his back, ready to go forward to see where the fool with the knife fell into the water.

In other words, although later generations don't know which guy who lacks virtue and smokes, the number "two" has become synonymous with lack of heart.

But now, the number "two", it is still just a number, and there is no belittling meaning at all!

On the contrary, it has also become an honorific title for others in some places because of those famous second brothers in history.

For example, in Shandong, it is common to greet a stranger and call him the second brother.

After all, what Confucius, Wu Song, and Zhuge Liang were born here, all ranked second!

After grinning and thinking for a while, he walked straight to the river, Xiao Han came back to his senses, looked up at a lonely small pier in front of him, and asked Jia Yi who followed behind suspiciously: "Huh?" What about the ship? Why didn't you see it? ”

Seeing this, Jia hurriedly replied: "Hui Hou...... Back to the second son, the ferry boat was too small to take a carriage, and the boatman said that he would go back to drive a big boat, and it would take a while to arrive. ”

"Oh? That's okay, we happen to be tired all the way, so let's rest here first, and wait! ”

Xiao Han suddenly realized, nodded and said that he knew, but then again, there is no bridge on this river, and if you want to cross the river, you can only rely on ferries, which is really inconvenient.

Of course, this is also a no-brainer.

The Yangtze River is so wide!

With current technology and materials, it is simply impossible to build a bridge across the river!

Even in the course of a war, one side spares no expense to cross the river with an iron lock and reluctantly build a pontoon bridge, which will quickly be corroded by the water vapor on the surface of the river.

Within two years, the pontoon bridge will become a dangerous bridge.

In another year, let alone the dangerous bridge, it is estimated that there will not even be a single iron slag.

Therefore, no one will do this kind of thing that vain wealth, but the gains outweigh the losses! For thousands of years, when people want to cross the river, ferries have become the only choice for people.

And the Yangtze River ferryman came into being under such circumstances.

I don't know if it was influenced by the "soul ferryman", Xiao Han has always been very curious about the Yangtze River ferryman.

So while the others were resting on the spot, he himself jumped onto a boulder on the shore and looked across the river.

Originally, Xiao Han wanted to go to the dock, because it stretched into the river water, and it looked very clear.

But there was no way, Xiao Dong and the stunned man dragged him desperately to prevent him from going to the dock that looked like it would collapse at any time, so Xiao Han could only find this taller boulder to climb up, climb high and look into the distance.

It snowed last night, and although the weather has cleared today, there is still a thin layer of water vapor on the river.

"Hey, do you two think this ferry can pull so many of us?"

Jimu looked away for a while, but he didn't see anything, Xiao Han sighed helplessly, sat on the boulder, and asked Xiao Donghe beside him.

"Who knows, anyway, this matter is Wang Wuzhangluo's, if you can't pull so many of us, let him swim over."

Xiaodong squatted under the boulder, bored picking up stones to play, and said when he heard the words.

"Huh? That's a good idea! Maybe he'll be in the water and catch two fish! The stunned man laughed next to him, and seemed to agree with Xiaodong's method!

But did Wang Wu really go to the water to catch fish? Or was it caught by a fish? I can't take care of that stunned.

Xiao Han didn't know why these two people had such a big opinion on Wang Wu, but he didn't want to care about these things, thinking it was just a small friction.

As the leader of these people, if he takes care of everything, even if he is as wise as Zhuge Liang, he will have to die of exhaustion.

So Xiao Han only pretended not to hear the meaning of schadenfreude in the words of the two, sat quietly on the top of the big rock, looked into the distance and muttered to himself: "Hey, he can't swim across the river, let's not say it, if we can't cross the river today, we have to go home in ......."

"If you can't get over, you have to go home?"

As soon as Xiao Han said this, Xiao Dong, who didn't care about it, immediately became anxious!

He was almost crazy at home, and he finally came out, and his legs didn't run hot, how could he go back like this?

"Master Hou, wait a minute, I'll ask first, it's really not good, just let them get a few more boats to line up, I won't believe it!"

Throwing down this sentence, Xiao Dong didn't care about Xiao Han correcting that he should call the second son instead of Hou Ye, and he ran away without a trace.

Sure enough, everything in this world, as long as it is related to one's own body, will be taken seriously if you are in a hurry.

The stunned man didn't know what was going on in Xiaodong's mind, and looked at his back as he hurriedly ran away, and couldn't help scratching his head, and said to himself: "Line up the boat?" Is that safe? What if I fall into the water? ”

"Smack......

Before the stunned voice fell, a handful of fine sand had already hit his head, mixed with a few small pebbles in the middle, and he was stunned, and hurriedly shrunk his neck to look up.

On the boulder above his head, Xiao Han grabbed a handful of weathered sand and glared at him angrily.

Although Xiao Han has never eaten this line of food on the water, he still has heard of some rules, such as boaters, the most taboo is the word "turn"!

Even for this reason, it has evolved into a kind of stubbornness, not only can you not say this word, but even actions, you are not allowed to do it!

Xiao Han still remembers watching a movie when he was a child, those handlebar-style family members can't turn over when they eat fish!

Therefore, if you are stunned for a while, you will not cover up and talk nonsense in front of others on the boat.

Xiao Han didn't know if Wang Wu would go down to the river to swim, but he would definitely go down, or would he be thrown down......

The stunned man was hit by a head of sand, and he knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he lowered his head stupidly, swept away the sand, and didn't dare to say more.

The boulder was quiet for a while, and only the river not far away slapped against the bank, making a "whoosh" sound.

"Huh? What's wrong? In the dreak, Xiaodong ran back, and when he saw that he was stunned and looked like he had done something wrong, he asked in surprise.

"It's okay! What did Wang Wu say? Xiao Han patted the dust on his hands and asked casually.

"Oh, he said no problem, there are more guests sent to this river, and I heard that some wealthy merchants have much bigger pomp than us, and they can also cross the river." Xiaodong blinked, as if he understood something, and quickly replied.

"Oh? So why didn't we see it? ”

"Maybe it's because there are very few guests for the Chinese New Year, and the boats and people are parked on the edge of the town over there."

Xiaodong inquired very carefully, and even guessed what Xiao Han would ask next, and prepared the answer in advance.
