This water thief Qu Lao San said: "Uncle Shi is polite, the brothers have been chasing after the officials for a few days recently, and there are those who have not been beaten, all of them are anxious and red-eyed, and their hearts are anxious, this hand holding the knife may not be very obedient, if something goes wrong, it may not only be overlooked, but also ask Uncle Shi to tell his subordinates, don't make trouble." ”

Although his words were polite, but his words were extremely intimidating, Shi Hu said: "Brother also knows that it is not easy to help a few brothers, I also have filial piety in Boss Li, all the guests in this boat are the distinguished guests of the prince of Xiu, and I also ask Qu Laosan to give me a few thin noodles, and I will thank you again when I look back." ”

Qu Laosan said with a straight face: "I hate to use others to press me the most in my life, what are you talking about, shoulder to shoulder." With a wave of his knife, he said to his subordinates behind him, "Kill the surnamed Fang." After saying that, he climbed the side of the ship first and boarded the big ship.

Shi Hu's face turned cold, and he lit up the spear in his hand and shouted: "Qu Laosan, is it really so faceless?" ”

Qu Laosan slashed his knife horizontally and said loudly: "If you don't block my financial path, I will give you face." Saying that, he walked around him to the back cabin of the ship, Shi Hu stabbed him in the back with a gun, Qu Laosan had already taken precautions, turned around and stabbed away, the two suddenly fought together, Qu Laosan brought his subordinates climbed the side of the ship to the big ship, but Shi Hu's boatmen were all laboring people, but they did not dare to come forward to fight, they all habitually hugged their heads and squatted on the ground, it seems that they have experienced many water robberies and robberies.

Shi Hu alone, it is difficult to defeat these many water thieves, Fang Jinshi saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly ran down the bow of the boat to his own place, and the people who came out of the Yunwang Mansion were quite calm, and the few people who came over from Jinxian Village were full of fear and at a loss.

However, after a few rounds, Shi Hu let Qu Laosan and his subordinates work together to catch him, he was stabbed in the calf, and the blood flowed, Qu Laosan proudly rushed to the stern of the boat with a knife from the bow of the boat, and shouted to the crowd brought by Fang Jinshi gathered here: "Who is surnamed Fang?" ”

Yun Nu'er hugged her own pipa and stood beside Fang Jinshi, she had already held the head of the pipa with one hand, Fang Jinshi knew that there was a short sword inside, he pulled Yun Nu'er's sleeve and shook his head, and then took a step forward and said, "Under the surname Fang." ”

He just stood there casually, without the slightest panic on his face, Qu Laosan was very surprised by his calmness, he waved his knife before saying: "Someone paid to kill you, the master came for money, if he has a grudge against you, don't say it wrong when you go to the underworld." ”

Fang Jinshi laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to be so funny as a thief, Huaidong is really different from people in other places." ”

As soon as he spoke like this, he didn't seem to see the current dangerous situation at all, Qu Laosan had never seen such a situation, he was a little dumbfounded, and he said angrily: "You won't find it interesting to cut off your head." After saying that, Fang Jinshi hurriedly said: "Slow and slow." ”

Qu Laosan said: "If you have any last words, hurry up, uncle can't wait." ”

Fang Jinshi said: "I don't have any last words, I just want to ask me how much silver this life is worth, and who made the price, so I can inform the prefecture." ”

Qu Laosan was completely mad at his attitude of not caring, and without saying much, he rushed up and slashed at him, Wei Chong was already ready, and he came to meet him with a knife, Qu Laosan shouted: "Don't leave one, kill them all." The men rushed up and slashed at the crowd.

The entourage of the Yunwang Mansion who followed Fang Jinshi stepped forward to greet each other, these people were either armed with simple weapons and wooden sticks, or directly greeted each other empty-handed, Qu Laosan couldn't fight Wei Chong for a long time, and heard the screams in the field, peeking at it, his subordinates were holding weapons, and they were far from being the opponents of these robbed.

Qu Laosan slashed a knife, taking advantage of Wei Chong's dodge, he jumped back quickly, and quickly jumped from the bow of the boat to the middle of the river, and a strong man who was the leader of the Yunwang Mansion picked up the spear on the ground, stood on the bow of the boat and threw it violently into the water, and a piece of red slowly floated in the water, and he didn't go for a long time.

Yun Nu'er looked at Fang Jinshi, who had been quietly watching the fight on the sidelines, and walked over, Fang Jinshi said to the strong man who had just thrown his gun: "The brothers of the Lin sect head are working hard, these robbers will bother you to take care of them, and they will be handed over to the local government to deal with when they get to the front." ”

The head of the Lin sect didn't say much, but said lightly: "I will do it." "The subordinates he brought with him were only about twenty people, and most of them were unarmed during the fight, and none of them were injured when they took down these thieves, which shows the disparity in force.

Fang Jinshi said: "Then there is labor." ”

Shi Hu walked over with the support of the two boatmen, and said apologetically to Fang Jinshi: "I'm really sorry, I never thought that such a thing would happen, fortunately, Fang Leader and his subordinates are powerful, otherwise I really don't know how to explain to King Xiu." ”

Fang Jinshi said: "Brother Shi has also done his best, and Brother Shi has been injured, I really can't help it, I don't know if there is Lang Zhong on the ship?" ”

Shi Hu shook his head and said: "This little injury should not be serious, it is better to hurry up and start the boat, it is not good to let the platoon help other branches rush over, it is safe only when it is land." ”

Fang Jinshi nodded yes, and these boatmen immediately restarted the boat and headed downstream.

Fang Jinshi settled the entourage and returned to his cabin, Yun Nu'er stepped forward and poured him a cup of tea, Fang Jinshi took a sip of it, and then said to her: "Did Fang Cai surprise you?" ”

Yun Nu'er shook her head, but nodded again, Fang Jinshi put down the teacup, put his arm around her waist and patted her lower abdomen, and then said, "Don't be afraid of anything else, I'm afraid that it won't be good if he is frightened." ”

Yun Nu'er said: "With you, I am not afraid of anything, but I am afraid that those people will hurt you." ”

Fang Jinshi smiled and said: "Those people are the masters selected by Prince Yun from the Imperial City Guards, especially the Lin sect leader, not only the head of the 800,000 forbidden army, but also the one in the 100,000 armed guards, these little thieves are still not in their eyes." ”

Yun Nu'er said: "It turns out that you have been prepared. ”

Fang Jinshi said: "It's not that I was prepared, it's that I'm on the mission of the prince of Yun, and I use these millions of dollars to buy tea for him, so much money is difficult to keep from blushing, and it is natural to invite a few capable bodyguards." ”

Yun Nu'er said: "You don't have this lot of money with you. ”

Fang Jinshi said: "This is called the heart of harming people, the heart of guarding against people, and sometimes you can't believe everything in other people's words." ”

Yun Nu'er said: "What if it is the person closest to you, such as your woman?" ”

Fang Jinshi said solemnly: "If even the person next to his pillow has two hearts and is always on guard, then life will be too boring, and it is not a pity to die, what if she is fulfilled?" ”

Yun Nu'er let out a long sigh before she said in a half-loud voice: "Your thoughts are always different from others, but you think what you say is right." ”

Fang Jinshi said: "Actually, no one wants to always be wary of others, it's just that others want to harm you, and you can't always do nothing, okay, I'll go out and have a look, and it's always reassuring to be in the land city." ”

He settled Yun Nu'er and walked out of the cabin, the thieves in the platoon had been tied up in the corner with ropes, and Lin Jiaotou stepped forward and said, "These people don't know who let them, maybe only Naqu Laosan knows." ”

Fang Jinshi had already thought of it, and he didn't care, Shi Hu arranged for the boatman to start the boat again, Fang Jinshi saw that it was getting late, but the two sides of the strait were desolate and uninhabited, so he didn't dare to dock easily, thinking that even if he was in a hurry at night, he would find a market town to anchor.

The big ship walked for less than half an hour, suddenly stopped and didn't go, the boatman came to report that the big ship was actually stranded, Shi Hu was angry and annoyed, scolded the boatman for a long time, this kind of big ship stranded, it is a very troublesome thing, and it is not easy to deal with it at night, so I have to find another big ship to drag it at dawn tomorrow, and push it manually.

Fang Jinshi couldn't do it for a while, so he had to let people rest in this boat and be vigilant, fortunately, the boat was in the water, and it was relatively easy to take precautions, the only trouble was that he didn't carry enough food and dishes, Shi Hu arranged for someone to put down a small sampan on the big boat, row to the shore to buy wine and vegetables in the distant market.

When night fell, the lantern was picked up on the big ship, Shi Hu brought two boatmen with two large plates of wine and food, Fang Jinshi was polite, Shi Hu put down the wine and food, Fang Jinshi asked about his injury again, and they said goodbye.

Fang Jinshi asked the entourage from the Yunwang Mansion to be vigilant, and beckoned the remaining people who were not on duty to come over together, ready to take turns to eat, these drinks and dishes have chickens and fish, and there are still a few jars of good wine, Fang Jinshi asked these people to sit down together, and distributed chopsticks to them, Wei Chong said casually: "Does the prince really want to eat these wine and food?" ”

Fang Jinshi's hand handing over the chopsticks couldn't reach out anymore, he slowly withdrew the chopsticks, looked at Lin Jiaotou, Lin Jiaotou took the pot of chicken in front of him and smelled it, and said, "It's so fragrant." He put the chicken back in its place, and said, "Brothers, just bear with it tonight." ”

The attendants all put down the dishes and chopsticks, and no one touched the food and drink.

Wei Chongdao: "There are still some rice and eggs on the carriage, which have been washed with river water and boiled by themselves. ”

The men and shopkeepers of Jinxian Village immediately went to fetch the little rice and eggs they brought from their carriages, and immediately took the pot and washed it with river water more than a dozen times, washed it clean and relieved, and set up a fire to cook rice, how can the water in this big river not be poisonous, and the eggs cannot be poisoned.

Fang Jinshi also ate a bowl, although it was very tasteless, but it was always better than nothing, but Yun Nu'er didn't want to eat this hard rice, and would rather endure hunger.

There were some winds and waves this night, Fang Jinshi didn't sleep very well in the cabin, and he sat up a few times to listen to the movements, but there was nothing unusual, but he always felt that something was wrong, and he was always worried that someone outside the window was secretly watching him, in fact, the cabin was closed and there was no window, everything was just an illusion.

It's just that Fang Jinshi was rarely confused, but he dreamed that Xue Lifei was somehow kicking a small tree frantically, turned his head, and immediately changed his smiling face.
