Chapter 8: The Death of Zhou Tai

Ou Yejing shook my unconscious body wildly and shouted, "Hey, stupid, what's wrong with you, how did you turn wood?" ā€

A sharp sound wave filled my mind, interrupting the dreamlike memories. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

I was shocked, and then I noticed that everyone in front of me was panicking, and I couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with me?" ā€

"Childe, you...... You just ......" Everyone saw me come back to their senses in the blink of an eye, and they didn't know how to answer me for a while.

"What's wrong? You are embarrassed to ask, you stood motionless just now, talking nonsense, fortunately Miss Ben woke you up, otherwise you would be miserable! Ou Yejing said loudly.

"What's wrong with me?" I rubbed my head and asked myself.

"Childe, save me!" Gong Yiqian, who was carried by Yan Baihu, hurriedly asked me for help.

I watched Yan Baihu carrying Gong Yiqian, just like a tiger holding its prey, and couldn't help laughing before saying, "Brother Tiger, let him go!" ā€

After Gong Yiqian was put down, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Thank you Gongzi for saving me, it's nothing, I'll go first!" After saying that, he turned around and ran.

"Wait!" I shouted.

Gong Yiqian pretended not to hear, his steps were faster, and he muttered in his heart: Stay away from this group of neuropaths, stay away......

"I'll pay your debts for you!" I continued to shout.

Hearing the word "repay debts", Gong Yiqian ran back in an instant.

"Pay off my debts? It's true? Gong Yiqian ran up to me and asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true, but ......" Just now an inexplicable thought appeared in my heart, to keep Gong Yiqian, but suddenly I forgot to leave him for.

"But what?" Gong Yuqian asked anxiously.

"I want to think about it......" I touched my head, suddenly patted my head and said, "You build a ship for me, and I will pay off your debts for you." ā€

"Shipbuilding? How big is a ship? Gong Qian asked.

"Build as big as you can." I replied.

"Really? Lie not to me? Gong Yiqian said excitedly.

"Don't believe me? I can send someone to help you repay your debts immediately, and after you repay your debts, you will go to Luoyang with me, and when my Luoyang affairs are over, you will be able to show your skills. ā€

"Well, I believe in you!" Gong Yuqian made a decision in his mouth, and he also made up his mind in his heart: both parents have died, the family business has been sold, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for here.

"Well, I'll have someone follow you to pay off your debts now."

"Yan Baihu, Ling Hu." I called.

"The subordinates are here!" Yan Baihu and Ling Hu responded.

"Now you two will follow this brother and help him pay off all his debts. After returning it, buy him a horse to follow, and we will wait for you at the Fuling County Post House across the river. I commanded.

"Yes!" The two of them obeyed the order and went away with the public loser.

At this time, Cai Yong also came over with the young apprentice, and when he saw me helping others so much, he praised: "The son is really a benevolent and righteous person, and he admires it so much!" ā€

"Mr. Miaozan, it's just a gesture." I said modestly.

After a while, the eight ferries were ready, and after everyone boarded, the boats slowly sailed into the river.

I stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the magnificent river, my heart throbbed, my thoughts were cloudy, and I sang inexplicably: "The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, the waves are sweeping away the heroes, and the success or failure is empty." The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times. On the white-haired fisherman river, accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet, and many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking. ā€

After singing, there was a burst of applause on the river.

Cai Yong, who was on the same boat, praised: "Wonderful! Wonderful! Ignoring the shaking of the hull, he said: "Please ask the son what is the name of this song, and who composed it?" ā€

I myself was stunned, so I could only answer honestly: "Sir is smiling, I don't know what the name of this song is." ā€

"This ......," Cai Yong wondered.

"Sir, my son-in-law lost his memory some time ago, so I can't remember, maybe it's a song composed by my son-in-law himself!" Yan Yu explained on the side.

"Childe is really talented, if this song is spread out, it will definitely be popular in the government and the opposition, and I ask Childe to sing it again." Cai Yong is still unfinished.

"Wood, sing it again! That's good! Ou Yejing also pulled my sleeve and said.

"The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes......"

Fuling Station, waited for Yan Baihu and rested for one night.

The next day, Cai Yong said goodbye to me: "This time I came out to find a friend, and I have a ride with Mr. Lao, and there will be a period later!" ā€

"Take care, sir!"

Two days later, Shou County, Jiujiang County, Huaishui Ferry.

The sunset makes the red of the Huai watermark and the snow on the shore, like ice and fire.

On a ferryboat, about 30 teenagers gathered together, rubbing their ears and discussing at the same time.

"Boss, those guys have settled in the inn, when are we going to do it?"

The young man who was called the "boss" scratched his leprosy head and said: "Look at their skills, they have swords to defend themselves, it's not easy to get them!" ā€

"Why don't we go in and touch some belongings?" The young man with a thief's eyebrows said.

The tallest boy in the crowd vetoed: "They have left their horses to be guarded, and they must be cautious, for fear that you will be discovered before you can touch them." ā€

"Zhou Tai is right, I, Jiang Qin, would rather be a robber than a thief." The teenager Jiang Qin said.

The leper suddenly stopped scratching his head and said, "Yes! Seeing that they are coming from the east, tomorrow they will definitely cross the river, we will get a few more ferries, a few people will be the boatmen to get them on board, and the rest of the people will wait at the opposite ferry, and when they get off the boat, they will do it without any precautions, hehe! I'm so smart! With that, he scratched his head again.

"Boss, this idea is amazing!" The crowd applauded.

The next day, the warm winter sun shone on our bodies very comfortably, and our group talked and laughed towards the ferry.

"When I was buying supplies yesterday, a few thieves and thieves followed us for a long time, I thought they would come to steal at night, but they waited for one night in vain!" Zu Lang said disappointedly.

"Haha, buy a clay figure for 100 yuan, maybe people have never seen such a rich daughter with such a generous hand, so take a few more looks, Miss Ouye, you say yes!" I quipped.

Ou Jing raised her horsewhip and said, "I like it, what's the matter!" Look at your itchy skin! ā€

"I'm so itchy, come and chase me!" I ran with my horse, Ou Jing and the others chased after me, and soon arrived at the ferry.

The leper boatman diligently pulled my horse and said, "Guest, look at my boat, it is big and stable, and the boat money is cheap, so you can get on my boat!" ā€

"But one ship isn't enough!" I said.

"It's okay, you see, several ships from my fellow villagers are here, don't worry!" The leper boatman pointed to the nearby ferry lane.

"Okay, just take your boat!" I agree.

They got into eight boats, and the boatmen were diligent, and soon they reached the other side.

On the shore, a group of young fishermen with harpoons were waiting for the boat.

"Guest, you have arrived, please disembark." The leper boatman laid out the gangplank, and disembarked first as he spoke.

Just as I was about to get off the boat, Dong Xian grabbed me and shouted, "Be careful, those fishermen are yesterday's gangsters!" ā€

But it was too late, and three of the other seven boats, three of the brothers who disembarked first, were not on guard and were pierced by harpoons.

The scene came so suddenly that the crowd reacted, and the young fishermen rushed onto the gangplank with harpoons in order to assassinate the people on board.

Fortunately, the gangplank was narrow enough for only one person to be on it, and everyone dodged the stabbing harpoons and drew their swords to resist.

Yan Baihu blocked the stabbing harpoon with a sword, and waved his backhand, "Ah! The fisherman shouted and fell into the water.

"One person guards the springboard, and the rest of the brothers jump to the shore!" I commanded.

Dong Xi took the lead, jumped onto the shore, raised his sword and slashed, and after cutting down one person, he faced Zhou Tai, and the two were evenly matched.

Ou Yejing was holding a dagger in her hand, and she wanted to jump off the boat to fight, but I stopped her and said, "You protect your brother." ā€

Everyone jumped to the shore one after another, swung their swords and slashed, which of those ruffian youths was the opponent, only Jiang Qin stabbed one person hard, and was also cut to the ground.

After a while, only Dong Xi and Zhou Tai were still killing each other on the shore. Under the long-term battle, the young Zhou Tai was not able to catch it, a flaw, Dong Raid took the opportunity to split his head, Zhou Tai hurriedly raised a fork to block, how could the harpoon wooden handle withstand the fierce slash of the Longyuan sword, and Zhou Tai's head was split in half on the spot.

I looked at the corpses all over the ground and couldn't bear to say, "Is there anyone alive?" ā€

"Childe, there's a living here." Ling Hu said.

"How's it hurting?" I asked.

"There was a cut on the chest, but not deep." Ling Hu replied.

I walked over to look at the boy lying on the ground and said, "Why did you attack us?" ā€

Jiang Qin clutched his chest and glared at me, "For money!" ā€

"Do you have parents at home?" I asked again.

"Yes!" Jiang Qin still glared at me fiercely.

I also glared at him and said, "Want to die, want to live?" ā€

Jiang Qin said horizontally: "If you want to kill, you have to chop, don't talk nonsense!" ā€

I took out a small piece of gold from my sleeve, threw it to him, and said, "Bury them, go home and honor your parents!" ā€

Jiang Qin picked up the broken gold and roared at me: "If you don't kill me today, I will kill you tomorrow!" Then he picked up Zhou Tai's body and walked away.

The three brothers who died in vain were cremated in my guilty bow, and since I can't return to my hometown alive, I should return to my roots when I die.

After this painful lesson, she will be more cautious on the road in the future, and Ou Yejing will not dare to buy things indiscriminately.
