Chapter 44: Weiyang and Xiaomeng

As soon as they heard about the water prison, all the merchants were shocked, and when they saw the young man Taishou, he smiled again, and said to Xie An: "Do you want to go and see the water prison?" ”

"Okay, Liyang is a battleground for soldiers, the teacher of this trip let me travel and hear, and I have to write a travel log, this Liyang has to go shopping. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Xie An followed Xie Shang into Liyang City, and the merchants followed together in anxiety, and finally were placed in a courtyard, which was relieved.

Liyang is at the turning point of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and there are two famous ferries in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, one is the ferry of Jingkou and Guangling, named Guazhou Ferry; The second is the quarrying channel between Liyang and the opposite bank, named Hengjiang, which can quickly reach Jiankang down the river.

It was precisely because of the geographical location that when Su Jun was stationed here, Yu Liang would be more jealous and wanted to recall him to Jiankang in order to disband his forces.

Xie An and his entourage stayed in Liyang, and the date for going west was undecided, firstly, to wait for Xie Shang to get the news from Wuchang, and secondly, to find out when Liu Yin's latest batch of private goods would go east.

Liyang is not only a traffic fortress, minerals are also distributed, coal and iron mountains are available, and Liyang belongs to the Yangzhou Department, is still Wang Dao's territory, but the Xuancheng Wuhu area on the other side of the river was divided by Yu Liang, which greatly hurt the vitality of Langya Wang.

In the past, the Beifu soldiers brought back by Xie Shang had been trained in Liyang, and they were the elite soldiers brought out by Xie Shang himself, and he was also very interested when he heard that Xie An wanted to rob Liu Yin's merchant ships again.

Xie Shang learned from the merchants brought by Xie An that Liu Yin's merchant ships would go south three times a month, one batch in ten days, and a batch in two days would be intercepted.

Huan Wen volunteered to be a pioneer, and together with dozens of Beifu soldiers, disguised himself as bandits, just as Xie Shang had just exterminated the water bandits a while ago, and just happened to seize a water bandit's ship, so as to facilitate their actions.

Liu Yin's merchant ship was going to be transported to the Guangling area, so it first stopped at Liyang for supplies, Xie An pretended to be a civilian passenger on the boat, and the other party didn't want to take the outsider, but Xie An said that the other party saw that he was going to Guangling alone to join his relatives, so he couldn't help but feel pity and let him get on the ship.

The ship only stops for one day in Liyang, and will open at night, Xie An is handsome and often smiling, and after a while, he is familiar with the people on the ship, Xie Shang and Huan Wen are secretly observing, seeing that Xie An is very familiar with the merchants and sailors, and they also drink and eat meat on the deck together, the elder brother naturally sighs that his child has grown up, and Huan Wen sighed: "As far as I say, throw him to Hudi, even if the language barrier can be like a fish in water." ”

Xie Shang said proudly: "If he has the opportunity to go to Hudi, I guess he learned Hu before he goes." ”

Xie An didn't know that people were praising him at the moment, and ******** inquire about the news of Wuchang, whether it was Liu Yin or Guo Mo, the more he knew, the better, but what those traders said was nothing more than the news that Xie An knew before, and those people also said that now Guo Molai is eating and drinking in Wuchang for nothing, Lord Liu has long looked at him unpleasantly, but there is no excuse to drive him away, and Guo Mo still wants to ask Liu Yin for entanglement, and he doesn't know how big a lion's mouth is, and even Liu Yin, who is rich in his family, did not agree.

It is also said that Guo Mo was a dry water bandit in his early years, and during the Yongjia Rebellion, he led people to rob tourists on fishing boats, and later became a huge rich, that is, it was this money that allowed him to take in a group of homeless people and become a homeless marshal.

After hearing this, Xie An smiled and said: "That Guo Mo has been discredited for a lifetime, and he has fallen to the point of begging for money." ”

The vendors are all Liu Yin's people are naturally very happy to hear it, they are full of food and drink and ready to set sail, Xie An also helped, the vendors saw him as a Sven, and at first glance he was a scholar, so they hurriedly asked him to sit on the side and blow the river breeze.

The boat was about to leave, Xie An was about to rest, in order to deal with the "robbery" at night, when he heard someone on the shore shouting to take a boat, and said that he was from the north and had never been on a big ship.

Xie An leaned over and saw a short young man in scarlet clothes, dressed as a Hu man, followed by a young man in gray who looked reluctant and looked down to read a book.

Naturally, it was the young man in scarlet clothes who spoke, his voice was immature and crisp, and he was full of witty words, and he actually let her board the boat.

"Xiao Meng, don't look at it, get on the boat." The scarlet boy yawned to the people behind him, and the young man who read the book lazily followed him to the boat, and then the scarlet boy introduced to everyone that they were homeless brothers from the north and wanted to take a boat to Jiangzuo to see the scenery.

There were irrelevant people on this boat, which immediately alerted Xie Shang and Huan Wen, and after looking at it for a while, Xie Shang said, "It's a woman." ”

"Which one?" Huan Wen blinked, eager to come out of the shadows to take a closer look.

"The one in red." Xie Shang said firmly.

Huan Wen asked, "...... How can this be distinguished? They are all flat-chested, and they can't see the Adam's apple clearly from such a distance. ”

Xie Shang said lightly: "Because I see a lot of women." ”

Huan Wen slandered, then I didn't see you marry a daughter-in-law, and the slander was slanderous, but he still asked: "According to the original plan, go out tonight?" ”

Xie Shangdao: "Of course, it's just two outsiders, leave it to him, anyway, he should be on the boat." ”

……

At this moment, Xie An was also in trouble, saying that he would do it tonight, but suddenly two outsiders became trouble.

The young man in the scarlet dress is very talkative, his complexion is fairer than that of the Central Plains, he is a species of the Hu people, but his facial features are exquisite, endearing, and he speaks Chinese well, his younger brother is a Han man, but he can't let go of the scroll, and he looks a little weird.

Although the relationship between the Han people and the Hu people is not good, in the first few years of the Wuhu invasion, even the Hu people have displaced civilians, he is young, but he looks like he has been wandering for a long time.

The scarlet boy called himself Weiyang, born in Chang'an since he was a child, and his name was taken from Changle Weiyang Palace, this person walked around the boat, and finally saw Xie An standing on the bow of the boat, and smiled at him.

Weiyang is not tall, and there is no age gap between him and his younger brother in his early tens, but he eats a lot of rice, and he eats a few bowls of rice by himself, and he said pitifully: "I really haven't eaten white rice for a long time, and there is no soft and fragrant rice in the north." ”

Xiao Meng, who was still eating and still eating a book, was also very fierce when eating, for fear that he would starve after playing for a while, and people were stunned.

Are there two foodies who dare to love?

Xie Anmo observed the two silently, thinking that he would lead them to the kitchen to faint before he started at night.

When night fell, the merchant ship drove out of Liyang Wharf, Xie An sat on the bow of the ship to blow the wind, and observed the situation by the way. ”

Weiyang still has a chessboard with him, if he changes to Huan Wen, he should have a guy who gambles on chess, but what Weiyang showed was black and white Go.

Xie An did not refuse, nor did he agree, "I played very badly." ”

Weiyang sat down opposite him and said, "It's okay, I'm also just learning." ”

Xie An, who claimed to have no talent for playing games, and Weiyang, who claimed to have just learned, began to play chess sullenly, and the young man named Xiao Meng sat quietly beside them reading a book, Xie An glanced at it and said lightly: "It turns out that Brother Ling likes to read military books." ”

Weiyang said disdainfully, "This "Liutao" is an ancient work, and it is also a backward tactic after watching it. ”

Xie An asked: "Wen, Wu, Dragon, Tiger, Leopard, and Dog six volumes, but have you read them all?" ”

Xiao Meng raised his eyes lazily at this time and said, "I've read it all, and now I'm reading "Wu Tao" carefully." ”

The most famous thing in "Wu Tao" is the idea of "cultural war", "to cut people with literature, and to cut them down without handing over troops", which is the strategy of using troops that Xie An admired when he saw it, to put it bluntly, it is to expand the contradictions from within the enemy, disintegrate and weaken.

"Twelve festivals are a martial thing. The so-called inspection of the heavens and the earth of the earth, the collection has been seen, and it is cut down. ”

When Xie An chanted the last sentence, Xiao Meng's eyes lit up and asked, "Do you like it too?" ”

Xie An smiled faintly: "You don't have to die too many people, I like it the most." ”

"Throughout the past, it is this method that was used by Yue Annihilation Wu, no wonder Zhuge Kongming and Sun Zhongmou both highly respected the "Liutao" art of war." Xiao Meng glanced at Weiyang, "You haven't even read it, so you deny the meaning of this book, isn't it too arbitrary?" ”

Weiyang was in a staleam with Xie An in the corner of the chessboard, and when he heard that he was reprimanded by his younger brother, he couldn't hold his face, so he immediately jumped up and said: "You little conscienceless, if I am erudite, what do I want you to do?" ”

Xiao Meng snorted and said, "You actually don't know a lot of words, right?" ”

Weiyang seemed to be poked in the sore spot, and suddenly lifted the chessboard, and the black and white children suddenly fell on Xie An's body, and saw Weiyang grinding his teeth and Xiao Meng scuffling, these two people had no rules to fight, it was no different from a small beast biting, Xie An couldn't bear to look directly, and was also confused by the situation in front of him for a moment.

What kind of temperamental brother is this, who fights when they disagree.

In the end, the hair of the two of them was torn into a bird's nest, and Weiyang returned to Xie An angrily and said, "I'll sleep with you tonight, this kid snores loudly when he sleeps at night!" ”

The merchant ship was rich, and Xie An had prepared a small room alone, but Weiyang wanted to squeeze over at this time, which made him a little embarrassed, but it was not easy to refuse.

Xie An had to comfort himself like this, so let's knock him out in his sleep.

Xiao Meng calmly continued to read under the faint oil lamp with the head of the bird's nest, which made Xie An feel a little ashamed, why did the children of this year work so hard?

The chess was destroyed before the game was played, Weiyang proposed that the two go back to the room and play again, pushing Xie An to go to the room, Xie An was almost dizzy by his quarrel, he couldn't agree, before leaving, he looked back at Xiao Meng again, the young man looked focused on the book, as if the whole person's soul melted into the page.

Xie An was pestered by Weiyang for a few games, if he won, Weiyang will definitely come back, but if Weiyang wins, he said that Xie An released the water, and finally when Xie An wanted to overturn the chess game, Weiyang said that he was sleepy and decided to sleep.

There are two beds of futon, but there is only one bed, and before Yang rolls the quilt into the bed, Xie An stands on the side of the bed, unable to adapt for a while, and it is not Ah Jin and Huan Wen, sleeping in a bed with a stranger, it is really a little uncomfortable.

He said that he wanted to write a journal and go back to sleep after a while, but Weiyang was not reluctant, and at this time he was so sleepy that he couldn't lift his eyelids, and he slept with a vague answer.

However, Weiyang said that his younger brother snored, but he himself slept poorly, and he was curled up in the bed before going to bed, but when he turned over after falling asleep, the whole person was in the shape of a large character, and his face was full of the whole bed, Xie An couldn't cry or laugh, and after writing a hastily log, he slept on the floor with the futon.

Naturally, he wouldn't really fall asleep, and before entering the house, he would look at the missing moment, and he would count the time and wait for the hour to send a code for action.

But it took him a little energy to deal with Weiyang before, he lay down for a while, and fell into a light sleep with his eyes closed, but light sleep is light sleep, his vigilance has always been there, and even the Zhongxing sword is pressed under the futon.

When he was drowsy, Xie An suddenly heard Suosuo's movement on the bed, and a breath was closer to him, making him wake up suddenly!

Sober and awake, but his body and eyes didn't move, the breath was unyang, and his breathing was slow and almost none, which sounded like he had practiced at first glance.

Sure enough, it was a little strange, Xie An suddenly opened his eyes in the dark, and bumped into a pair of eyes that glowed with a ghostly light, like beasts.

The two looked at each other for a moment, but neither spoke.

After a while, Weiyang said softly: "Seasick, can't sleep, what about you?" ”

Xie An gently spit out three words, "Fat powder flavor." ”

Weiyang lay on the head of the bed, holding his cheeks in his hand and said, "Well, I heard that you Jiang Zuo Langjun are all wearing powder and sachets, don't I follow suit?" ”

Xie An said seriously: "So this smell choked me." ”

Weiyang lowered his head and sniffed himself, and said, "Are you okay?" ”

"I don't like it." Xie An closed his eyes slightly and yawned, "If you get seasick, go out and vomit, don't vomit on my ground, this is my bed." ”

Weiyang smiled and said, "Xiao Langjun, why don't you come up to sleep?" ”

Xie An said: "Yes, I come up, you go down." ”

Weiyang covered his lips and smiled: "I won't eat you again, why not together?" ”

Xie An sighed and said, "Men and women don't kiss. ”

Weiyang pretended to be surprised and said, "Huh, men and women? I'm a man, it turns out that Xiao Langjun is a little lady! But it's also said that some of your Jin men are better looking than women, these **** have secretly seen Taishou a few times in Liyang City, this demeanor is beautiful, but it is really the first in Jiangzuo, but the little Langjun next to him is not bad, but how can the dignified Xie family Saburo fall to the point of sleeping on the floor? ”

As soon as Xie An heard him mention Xie Shang, he knew that the person who came was not good, and he had already recognized him, and he was still pretending to be stupid, although he had never recognized her as a woman when he boarded the ship......

Xie An stretched out his hand to hold the sword in the futon and asked, "I don't know who the master is?" ”

Wei Yanglang smiled: "Now you and I are both travelers, and besides, I seem to be shorter than you. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, a hand was gently placed on Xie An's shoulder, "Don't draw your sword, in such a small room, if you and I do it, it is most likely to hurt our faces." ”

The shot is fast, and it doesn't look like the martial arts are weak.

These **** have spied on Xie Shang and he has never been discovered, it seems that the martial arts are really good.

I only heard Weiyang press his shoulder and whistle softly, and after a while, I heard the sound of soft footsteps, and Xiao Meng opened the door outside and came in.

Xie An looked over, and the little boy also looked at the two of them with a look of surprise.

Xiao Meng asked, "You said you came in when you whistled, what are you doing?" ”

Weiyang said with a relaxed face: "Oh, now officially introduce, Xiao Meng, this handsome little Langjun is Xie Jia Sanlang, you kill him now, and you can read a few fewer books in the future, just now you haven't heard it, this person has even finished reading "Liutao" a long time ago, you will never be able to catch up with him." ”
