Chapter 108: Strange Ships

Although I came to the Three Kingdoms to enjoy the happiness that I could not enjoy in Thirty Mile Town, I came to the riverside and looked at it by the railing, the waves on the river were surging, and the sea breeze was blowing. On the other side of the river, hundreds of miles away, there must be something terrible happening, just like this river, it seems to be calm, but below it is by no means ordinary, a catastrophe is coming.

Sang Yu came, and she said how did you marry Xiao Qiao to a mustache?

I said that Xiao Qiao didn't marry the mustache by me, but she married the mustache herself.

Sang Yu shook his head and said: It's a pity that a beauty has been passed down through the ages.

I said it was better than her being a widow for the rest of her life.

Sang Yubai glanced at me, she looked at the waves on the river and said: Can't we go back?

I don't know if I can go back now, even if I go back, it will take a long time, according to the Bazi nonsense, it will take a long time for the Heavenly Charm to recover the ability to travel through time and space, if we can't die, wait until that day, then after going back, the classmates will have already graduated from high school, and Sang Yu's college dream may be shattered.

Sang Yu turned his head to look at me: why haven't they come yet.

"It's coming!"

At this time, there was a wave on the river, and the boats parked by the river shook one after another, and looked into the distance, on the river without sky, a small boat appeared at some point, drifting with the waves. Sang Yu pointed to the boat and said, "Look, there's a small boat there."

The boat was floating very strangely, there was no one on board, and the speed of progress was very fast, could it be a fishing boat with fishermen on the other side of the river? It's a time of war, and the inspection of ships coming and going is very strict, and once a ship drifts in, a warning signal will be sent here.

The soldiers by the river immediately shouted: "A boat is coming!"

The archers guarding behind the defensive wall hula all set up arrows on the bow, aiming at the river, the mechanical stone thrower is also tight, once there is an abnormal situation, the stone thrower will immediately launch the ball full of explosives, the explosives inside are prepared by Sang Yu according to chemical knowledge, although this kind of explosives is not as good as modern bombs, but the power is also quite powerful, falling on the ancient wooden ship, it will also directly blow up the ship, and even ignite the ship.

The boat was getting closer and closer, and it turned out to be a small boat that could accommodate two people, and there was no one on board.

The two small warships immediately caught up with them, they would never let the suspicious ships get close to Sun Wu's warship, and the warships were now also equipped with cannonballs, which were all invented based on the two-kick, and the range was not far, but the power was hundreds of times greater than that of the bow and arrow.

Two small warships flanked the suspicious boat on the left and right, and returned to the shore with the boat.

"Report to the Grand Governor, there is a man lying on the ship, as if he is dead."

"Haul the boat up!" I commanded.

Sang Yu looked at me, and my face was abnormal, because I had a hunch that there must be something wrong with this little boat, and I had a sharp sword in my hand, sharpened like clay.

The boat was towed to the shore and I said: keep your distance!

Everyone drew their swords and kept their distance from the boat, and when I walked to the boat, I saw a corpse lying in the boat, which seemed to have been dead for a long time.

The soldier replied to me: "Because of the imminent outbreak of the war, we have blocked the sea for fishing, and there is a special fishing area for fishing, which is not far from here, but our fishing boats are all marked, and this small boat is not our fishing boat, and this is not a fishing boat, like a sightseeing boat in the near sea."

Sightseeing fishing boats? It can never be a sightseeing fishing boat, this is an extraordinary time, how can anyone dare to go sightseeing on the river, even if there is someone sightseeing, but there is no sword wound on his body, how did he die.

I felt that something was wrong, so I put the sword on the neck of the dead body, the blade was extremely sharp, just touched the skin of the dead body, the skin was cut, a black liquid flowed out, everyone was shocked, I just wanted to take back the sword, suddenly a sound of frustration came from the neck of the dead body, and then, the dead body was like a corpse, struggling from the boat and pounced on me, I had already prepared, waved the sword in my hand, and the head of the dead body fell on the boat, but his body was still rushing forward, I split again, and the dead body was split in two, from within the abdomen of the dead corpse, several small, long worms fell.

Then I said, "Here they are!"

Everyone looked at the river in horror, but except for a few seabirds, there was no half-boat and half-person on the river, what was going on? Isn't it said that places like Xichuan and Jingzhou are a line of defense? Could it be that Nishikawa has been lost?

Xichuan has not been lost, Jingzhou is still there, Cao Cao's army of the dead has not yet come, and when I say they are coming, I mean that they are coming soon. But why did Miss Yan let a small boat over, besides, she had already mixed into Jingzhou? This is a signal to us!

I said to everyone: everyone is optimistic, this is Cao Cao's army of dead men, he is already dead, but he still retains the ability to fight, we must sharpen the swords in our hands, do not think that they are dead people and think that they will not stand up and cut off our heads, as long as we see dead people, cut off their heads. A handful of fires burned to ashes to prevent resurrection!

The generals said in unison: Obey the orders of the Grand Governor.

I said to Sang Yu: It seems that we have to go to the Jiang side to have a look, investigate clearly, the battle has not yet been fought, and Miss Yu has already given us a signal.

Sang Yu nodded, and I called a small boat and crossed the river with two people with extraordinary skills.

When the boat crossed the river, the people on the other side shouted, "Whoever is coming, stop moving at once, or we will release our arrows."

I reported my name, the soldiers on the shore allowed us to approach, after going ashore, I did not go directly to find Guan Yu, but walked around the coast, the shore is guarded and armed, it is very difficult to put a small boat here, I asked if there are fishermen who have gone out to sea to fish recently, the soldiers all said no, the recent investigation is strict, fishermen are not allowed to go out to sea to fish, and there are no sightseeing fishing boats.

So, where exactly did this little boat come from?

The soldiers guarding the shore told us that although there were no fishing boats out to sea, there were people who died here today, and the dead were fishermen, and the relatives of the deceased put the dead people in small boats and let the boats drift with the current, until the sharks came in the water, overturned the boats, and the bodies fell into the water, and the fish ate them.

This is the local custom, especially the fishermen, they believe that the rivers, lakes and seas are their food and clothing, they live by fishing, and throw the body into the sea after death, which is a kind of respect for the god of the sea, bless them to catch a lot of fish, this is a kind of sea burial, similar to burial.

Leaving the shore, we met with Guan Yu, and I explained to Guan Yu and said: General Guan must not think that Cao Bing is as vulnerable as last time, if he is too conceited, he may be killed, and in addition, the riverbank area also needs to increase the armament.
