Chapter 39: Into the River
The ship sailed for two nights and one day, and in the early morning of this day, the Ping'an finally sailed from the mouth of the Dayu River into the Weiwei River.
"In half a day, they will arrive at the fork of Jiuqu Gorge, can they be sure?" Chen Liu stood on the deck, looked at the river, and whispered to Wei San next to him with some concern.
"This waterway is the road they are used to, and it should be fine." Wei San said lightly.
"But ......" Chen Liu still looked worried, "Jiuqu Gorge is not an ordinary place, it is too risky to take this waterway......
"We're here, do we have any other options?" Wei San said.
"You shouldn't have listened to that guy fooling ......," Zhao Er muttered on the side.
"Alright." Wei Sanyi waved his hand and said: "The danger of our road is not only here, where can we worry too much and be timid." ”
Oh, yes! Raya Snow Mountain, where is it so easy to pass, there are still many dangerous roads waiting for them ahead.
Chen Liu sighed lightly and stopped talking.
Zhao Er naturally didn't dare to say anything more.
Because he was about to cross the Jiuqu Gorge before noon, the old fisherman instructed the cook on the boat to prepare lunch in advance.
Cen Xiyan and Cangqing simply ate some, cushioned their stomachs, and put down the dishes and chopsticks.
Zhao Er had a large amount of food, and the fish soup boiled by the cook was delicious, so he opened his belly and ate it for many ages.
Cen Xiyan glanced at him a few times, and finally couldn't help but say more: "Second Brother Zhao, I advise you, it's better to eat less, otherwise it will ......"
"What! I'm afraid I'll be poor! Without waiting for Cen Xiyan to finish speaking, Zhao Er rolled his eyes and interrupted her, "It's a big deal, let's give more money!" ”
"Gotcha! When I didn't say anything, you continued, eat as much as you want, if it's not enough, let Lao Li cook two more dishes for you. Cen Xiyan didn't bother to say any further.
Lao Li is the cook in charge of the big guy's food on this ship.
Gazi pursed his lips at Zhao Er, and sneered in his heart: I don't know what to do, you will suffer it in a while!
Not long after lunch, the Ping An rounded a green hill and headed for the mouth of a narrow canyon.
The catfish came over and clenched his fist to Wei Sanyi, who was standing on the deck observing the river, and then said: "This son, the ship is unstable for a while, and the splint is dangerous, you had better take your people and rest in the cabin first, and in the evening, we will almost be able to get out of the Jiuqu Gorge, and it will not be too late to come out to enjoy the scenery at that time." ”
Wei San knew that although he knew some water, he couldn't compare with these old boatmen who grew up in the water, so he was not reckless, and nodded and agreed: "Okay, let's go into the cabin." ”
After that, he took Chen Liu, Zhao Er, and the other two guards back to the cabin.
Cang Qing and Cen Xiyan didn't leave the cabin after lunch, they each chose a chair to sit on, and Cang Qing pinned his saber to the table leg, holding it firmly with both hands.
The tables and chairs on this ship are all fixed on the ship, and in this way, he is connected to the tables and chairs to fix himself.
Wei San glanced at Cang Qing and thought about it, but when he saw that Cen Xiyan was just sitting there and didn't make any special moves, he didn't ask, because through the two days of getting along, Wei San had basically understood Cang Qing's sullen temper, and knew that he might not be willing to open his mouth if he asked.
When Cen Xiyan saw Wei San and the others coming in, he touched a small package at the corner of the table, took out a few oil-paper bags from it, and gave one to everyone.
"What is this for?" Wei San looked at the oil-paper bag in his hand and asked puzzled.
