The smoke is vast, the vast, it is really refreshing. The humid water vapor on the surface of the lake is blowing in the face, inhaling it into the lungs, feeling a burst of cool and moist, very comfortable, natural and non-irritating air, how rare!

There are a lot of historic sites on Weishan Island, and the boat boss Lao Jia and others are very neatly dressed, like some literati and ink writers, just thinking that they are going to Weishan Island to see something, so they didn't ask much, and they undertook this work.

"Young master, young lady is lucky, the southeast wind is blowing today, and our ship will be twice as fast as usual!"

Lao Jia smiled and untied the ropeway.

This job is easy, and he earns a lot, and Lao Jia is in a good mood.

Lao Jia's ship is a wooden sailing ship, usually is generally short-distance freight-based, sometimes also carries some guests, this little Japan came, business plummeted, many shipowners have closed down, he takes his son and apprentices out every day, this ship is all his belongings, very well maintained.

Yao Heizi has many thieves in his eyes, and he fell in love with his ship at a glance, and as soon as he stepped forward to talk, the business was done.

Raise the sails and sail the boat.

Before the Tang Dynasty, Weishan Lake was not a lake, it was a low hill composed of many hills, the strange peaks were handsome, there were many birds and beasts, the main peak Weishan, commonly known as Phoenix Terrace, the altitude was only ninety meters, the terrain around Weishan was low-lying, and the Sihe River flowed into the Huai River from north to south.

From the fifth year of Shaoxi in the Southern Song Dynasty to the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Yellow River repeatedly burst and flooded, and the water of the Yellow River poured in, forming a large area of water, and the ancient city remained in the city and submerged underwater, and Weishan gradually became an island.

This is the origin of Weishan Lake and Weishan Island.

The most famous thing on Weishan Island is the "Three Sons"

The tomb, the tomb of Weizi in the Han Dynasty Zhang Liang tomb and the tomb of Muyi in the Spring and Autumn Period, there are still residents on the island, mainly the descendants of this Weizi and Zhang Liang, who have lived on Weishan Island for generations and lived in the tomb.

"Childe, Miss, where are you going, I heard that the north has been occupied by the Japanese, and many people have fled from the north, the Japanese devils are really evil, burning, killing and looting, and doing all kinds of evil......

The boat boss Lao Jia is very talkative, and when he talks about Japanese devils, although he doesn't see them with his own eyes, he is also full of righteous indignation.

"We have some industries in the north, we have to go back."

Leng Feng smiled.

Lao Jia is also a person who is accustomed to seeing the world, he knows the truth that people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, how can people tell you their secrets?

However, Lao Jia felt that the young master Leng Feng did not look like a cynical boy, and his eyes were full of a mature and steady wisdom.

The young lady is too, and the men who follow him are all steady and extraordinary, but they are obedient to the delicate young lady.

And the old man who didn't talk much, like the head of the family, felt a steady pressure, like the weighing stone at the bottom of the box.

"Lao Luan, if you are idle, play a game of chess with me."

Yang Jie knew that Leng Feng was too bad at chess, and he was not interested in playing against him at all, this was a long way, and he had to find something to pass the time.

Adjutant Luan dared to say no, and obediently went to set up a dragon gate formation with the chief.

Leng Feng took a small stool, sat on the bow of the boat, took out a notebook, and paddled on it with a pencil.

Today's southeast wind is blowing, and the boat borrows the wind power, and the speed is very fast, which also saves Lao Jia and the three of them a lot of effort, and they still have time to sit down and rest, so they don't have to work so hard.

"Lao Jia, at this rate, when will we be able to reach Weishan Island?"

"I can arrive before the evening, and I can't miss the guests to stay on the island, but if you want to go to the island, you have to wait for tomorrow."

Lao Jia Dao.

"Well, we're not in a hurry."

Leng Feng asked, "There won't be water bandits on this Weishan Lake, right?" ”

When Lao Jia heard this, his face couldn't help but change slightly.

"Are there really water bandits?"

Leng Feng asked in surprise.

"Young master, don't worry, I have been sailing on Weishan Lake for many years, and I will guarantee your safety."

Lao Jia said slowly.

"I always walk close to the shore of the lake, is it that the more I go to the center of the lake, the more unsafe it becomes?"

Leng Feng asked.

Lao Jia sneered: "Young master is so smart, we take a short distance, half of it is attached to the shore of the lake, if we go a long distance, it is not a boat, and it will carry a long one. The gun team, they are not afraid of the water bandits, but they will not clash with the water bandits, just pay some tolls. ”

Lao Jia explained.

"I see, if we encounter water bandits, can we do the same?"

"It's pretty much the same, but it's ......"

"But what?"

Leng Feng asked.

"A beautiful woman like Miss, when this bandit sees it, maybe he will rob people, and we rarely take a boat for young women here."

Lao Jia Dao.

"Then why didn't you just say that?"

Leng Feng was a little displeased.

"I'm afraid that if I say it, you won't rent my boat, I haven't opened it for half a month, and I can't open the pot anymore, so I didn't say it."

Lao Jia said with shame.

Although Leng Feng felt uncomfortable, he could also understand that it was by no means easy to support his family, not to mention that they were now sailing close to the shore of the lake, and once they encountered a situation, they could dock at any time, Lao Jia didn't say this, he understood it in his heart.

What's more, they brought so many boxes on the ship, and the wealth was touching.

Leng Feng really hoped that there would be an eyeless water bandit coming to the door, so he would be so aggressive, he hadn't moved his muscles and bones for a long time, and his body really felt a little rusty.

Lao Jia is an experienced boat boss, come, he kept asking Jia Wang and the two to adjust the angle of the sails, so that the boat can move forward at the fastest speed, and can also cling to the shore of the lake, this ability to sail, so that Leng Feng is also impressed, even if he has the wisdom of a thousand years later, he can't do this.

This master is among the people, no matter what era it is, it is a wise saying.

Leng Feng couldn't help but love talents, the first division of honor has a water transport team, and these three people can be absorbed.

The boat traveled for more than two hours, and according to Lao Jia, at least ten miles of waterway had woken up to the north, and from the dock where they got on the ship, there were about two hundred and forty or fifty miles of waterway to Weishan Island, that is to say, in about three or four hours, they would be able to reach Weishan Island.

This is already considered fast, and on a normal day, this section of the waterway would have to be walked for at least ten hours or so.

"Abba......

The boat was moving steadily, and suddenly Jia Wang ran over from the stern of the boat, and anxiously stretched out his hand to his father Lao Jia.

They spoke the local dialect, and Leng Feng and the others couldn't understand a word, but with anxious expressions, their ship was in trouble.

"Young master, there are three ships following us, less than three miles away from us."

Lao Jia said solemnly.

"Do you know whose ship it is?"

Leng Feng asked.

"I don't know, they chased us all the way."

Lao Jia Dao.

"How do you know?"

"Xiao Wang has been observing for a while, they are almost following our course, and they are faster than us, and in a quarter of an hour, they will catch up with our ship."

Lao Jia said, "And there is a reed swing in front, our ship can't dock at all, and once it sinks, we can't get out ourselves." ”

"So, the other party must be coming for us?"

Leng Feng showed a hint of surprise, could it be that he was being targeted and didn't know?

"Young master, you carry so many boxes with you, I think it must be someone, the bandits have their own eyeliner on the shore, you are afraid that they will see it."

Lao Jia's face was very difficult/br> "You don't think that the box is full of gold and silver treasures, right?" ”

Leng Feng asked.

"The young master has brought so many guards with him, there must be something valuable in the box, although I don't know what is inside, but the weight is very heavy."

Lao Jia Dao.

"Lao Jia, with your experience, what should we do now?"

"If you can speed up and get out of this reed, there's a dock in front of you to dock."

Lao Jia Dao, if you really encounter a water bandit who kills people without blinking, they will also suffer.

Although the bandits also know that killing these boats is tantamount to killing chickens and eggs, and they themselves will have no way to live, but that is relative.

If they really intercept the eye-catching wealth, they will definitely kill it as soon as possible to prevent the news from leaking.

Lao Jia felt that his luck on this trip did not seem to be very good, and the things carried by these guests were probably really "fat sheep"

, then their safety is not guaranteed.

"Lao Jia, just do as you say, if you need our help, just speak quickly!"

Leng Feng said.

"Okay, young master!"

Lao Jia is not polite, even if the bandits don't kill them after intercepting the boat, then no one dares to take their boat, who dares to take a boat that has been robbed by the bandits?

For their own livelihood, Lao Jia's father and son also had to work hard.

Niu Dali and Tian Yao joined in, the four of them rowed together, Lao Jia took the helm, and the speed of the sailboat suddenly increased by three percent, and they rode the wind and waves forward.

"What's wrong with the ship?"

Yang Jie didn't know what was going on, and only after feeling the hull turbulence after acceleration, did he ask.

"Teacher, if you encounter a little situation, it's okay, you and Deputy Luan will continue to play chess."

Leng Feng smiled and slipped into the cabin.

"Did you encounter a bandit?"

Yang Jie asked.

"Probably, but not surely."

Leng Feng nodded.

"We are carrying so many things, we must have let the water bandits' eyes be targeted in Hanzhuang."

After all, it is Lao Jiang, Yang Jie has a breakthrough.

"Boss, they caught up, and when they found out that we were accelerating, they began to speed up as well."

Yao Heizi came in through the small door at the stern of the boat and handed Leng Feng a telescope.

"Teacher, I'll go"

Leng Feng took the binoculars and went to the stern with Yao Heizi.

The ship that followed them was three ships, all wooden sailing ships, one large and two small, but they were dilapidated, not as good as Lao Jia's boat, one of which was larger than Lao Jia's boat, and the draft was also deep, and the other two were about twenty meters away from it, which was about the same as Lao Jia's boat.

On the deck of the big ship in the middle, Leng Feng and some people in black clothes and silk pants were carrying guns behind them, and their faces were vicious, obviously not good.

The leader, about forty years old, was not tall, his face was full of pockmarks, he was blind in one eye, a box cannon pinned to his waist, and he stepped forward on the bow of the boat with one foot, staring at the boat that Leng Feng was riding.

Leng Feng saw him, and he should have seen Leng Feng too.
