Chapter 177: Slipway Encounter
Lin Yiqing walked towards the slipway, and soon he came to the bottom of the slipway, and some of the workers who were working around noticed this young man with eager eyes, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Lin Yiqing came to the huge iron ribs of the "Kaiji", stretched out his hand and stroked the slightly rough steel surface, and his heart was excited.
This is my battleship! This is my shipyard!
Lin Yiqing was in the mood of the ups and downs, but he suddenly saw a boy like him, standing in front of an iron rib, watching fixedly, his little face was full of solemnity.
This is a very handsome boy, like the Qianguo child, he is also black-haired and yellow-skinned, but he is a head taller than a boy of the same age, and under the reflection of the sun, Lin Yiqing found that the child's hair seems to have a hint of red, and slightly curly, and the child's black eyes are also faintly blue.
Lin Yiqing immediately judged that this boy should be a mixed-race child.
But whose child is this? Why is it here?
Just when Lin Yiqing was curious about the identity of this boy, a small red figure rushed over in a gust of wind, Lin Yiqing looked closely, and immediately saw a beautiful girl.
The girl was born as beautiful as jade, very beautiful and lovely, she wore a bright red dress, but she held a small wooden sword in her hand, instead of the rattle and windmill that girls of her age often carried.
The wooden sword should be a boy's toy!
The boy looked at the iron ribs in front of him intently, and like Lin Yiqing, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked the surface of the steel that had been oxidized to gray and black after forging, and did not notice the girl behind him at all, the girl looked a little annoyed, and actually raised the wooden sword in her hand and patted it on the boy's shoulder.
The boy's reaction was very quick, and although his back was to the girl, he immediately felt the approach of the wooden sword, and flashed to the side, and the girl's wooden sword suddenly fell into the air.
"What are you doing? Yuxi? The boy had drawn the wooden sword he had hung from his waist, but when he saw the girl, he immediately put it down again.
"Who told you not to play with me, you actually ran here!" The girl named Yuxi pursed her lips high, stomped her foot and said, "As soon as you saw the boat, it was like losing your soul, and I knew you were like this, so I didn't bring you here!" β
"You can't compare to my sword, Yuxi." The boy smiled and said, "It's not that I don't play with you, it's that your swordsmanship is too bad." β
Hearing the boy call the girl "Yuxi" twice in a row, Lin Yiqing's heart couldn't help but flash like lightning!
He looked at the girl carefully, and from the girl's picturesque eyebrows, he could see Lin Yizhe's appearance.
This is Lin Yizhe's daughter Lin Yuxi!
So whose child is this mixed-race boy named "James"? Why are you with Lin Yuxi?
"Don't look down on people! James! Hearing the boy's answer, Lin Yuxi seemed to be angry, "I just learned a few tricks from Aunt Zhu, and I'll teach you to taste it now!" β
Lin Yuxi said, stepped forward suddenly, and stabbed at the boy named James with a sword.
The boy raised the wooden sword in his hand and blocked it, and the two children immediately fought each other in the ribs of the boat.
Seeing the two children fighting well, Lin Yiqing's eyes couldn't help but widen in surprise.
James is obviously using Western swordsmanship, Lin Yuxi is using Middle-earth swordsmanship, and the two of them have obviously undergone very systematic training!
Although these two children are playing with each other, Lin Yiqing can already see that both of them are very agile, and if time goes by, they will be good hands in the future!
The competition between the two children quickly attracted the attention of the onlookers, but the two children were so engrossed in the competition that they ignored the onlookers.
The competition was quickly decided, the boy named James was still a step ahead, and the boy seemed to have a lot of strength, and the last sword actually knocked the wooden sword in Lin Yuxi's hand away.
The wooden sword drew a long arc in the air and flew straight in front of Lin Yiqing.
Lin Yiqing stretched out his hand violently and grabbed the wooden sword.
"How? You've lost, right? James laughed, and pretended to point his wooden sword at the girl's chest.
"You're losing!" The girl's wrist flipped, and in her white and tender little hand, there was a toy pistol with a copper pipe and wooden handle like a trick!
"You're playing tricks...... Before James finished speaking, Lin Yuxi pulled the trigger of the small pistol.
With a "bang", a puff of white smoke erupted from the muzzle of the small pistol.
The boy's face changed, one hand covered his chest, he turned to face the surprised crowd, stretched out his other hand, staggered forward two steps, and fell into the gap between the ribs of the ship.
The crowd let out a cry of surprise when they saw the boy fall, but the girl didn't care and blew lightly on the gun's barrel.
Looking at this scene, Lin Yiqing couldn't help laughing.
Of course, he could see that the boy named James was acting, making Lin Yuxi, who failed to compete with the sword, happy.
The boy's movements, clearly influenced by English theatre, have some Shakespearean touches.
While lamenting the boy's superb acting skills, Lin Yiqing couldn't help but admire this child's means of picking up girls.
If his childhood is compared to that of this boy, it can be said that he is puritanical.
Someone in the crowd seemed to see that the two children were acting and playing, and someone laughed out loud, when the boy stood up abruptly, waved his hand and bowed, and bowed to the girl in a Western aristocratic manner. In Western theaters, this is how the actors take a curtain call after the performance.
Seeing the boy saluting, the girl put away her small pistol, bent her legs and stretched her skirt, bowed slightly, and also gave the boy a Western-style salute.
Seeing the two children saluting each other, the foreigners in the crowd couldn't help but laugh and applaud.
James turned his head to look for Lin Yuxi's wooden sword, and his eyes quickly searched for Lin Yiqing, Lin Yiqing stepped forward with a smile and handed him the wooden sword.
"Thank you!" James stepped forward and thanked politely, took the wooden sword and returned it to Lin Yuxi, Lin Yiqing was about to ask whose child he was, but heard a soft female voice coming.
"James, what are you messing around again? Is Yuxi with you? β
Lin Yiqing turned his head to follow the prestige and saw a red-haired and blue-eyed white woman walking out of the crowd.
This is a very beautiful young woman, she wears a corset and openwork dress typical of English aristocratic women, with a bare slender neck and forearms, red hair and high curls, snow-skinned flowers, elegant manners, at first glance, like a fairy in a fairy tale.
