Chapter 495: Burning incense to attract ghosts
Xia Zisu also realized at this time that she was too impulsive to commit to Yan Hong that day, but she was carrying endless follow-up baggage. She thought again: Since you know what is involved, why didn't you say it earlier, and you had to mention it after you had a skin-to-skin relationship with me? But how do you ask this? She herself can not be afraid of death, but if it is really the time of childbirth, one corpse and two lives, it is absolutely unacceptable. And these days with each other every day of fun, pregnancy and childbirth are also a matter of time, this is not alarmist. Thinking of this, she stepped back a little more and said, "Then according to your words, I can't say anything about you after all." ”
Since that day, the two have been visiting the seaside several times a day. Xia Zisu hoped that the ship would never come, and he and he would continue to live like this; I also want a ship to come sooner, lest it really harm the child's life in the future. After many days, at noon on this day, Yan Hong and Xia Zisu were routinely watching, Yan Hong suddenly found a faint shadow of a sail in the distance, and couldn't help shouting: "Boat!" ”
Xia Zisu didn't keep his mind, he didn't know what he was thinking, and when he heard Yan Hong shout, he first shook his head, and then said: "That's not a boat, it's a seabird, you read it wrong." Two days ago, didn't you also see seabirds as sail shadows? Chunchen, I'm tired, can you take me back? ”
Yan Hong sighed lightly: "Zisu, your trick is useless. You are a martial arts practitioner, and your eyesight is better than mine, can't you see that this time it is really a sail? Hurry up and change your clothes, this phoenix robe is in trouble, I'll light fireworks and lure them over. ”
When Xia Zisu heard this, his face changed, and he pushed Yan Hong violently: "You! Are you tired of me so soon? Those wives and concubines who have already started to miss you? There was already a bit of crying in his voice.
Yan Hong was pushed by this, leaned back, and hurriedly got up. It's not annoying. He only said, "Shiso." I told you. I will not force you to do anything. If you decide to live on the island from now on, and not ask about the world, and would rather your children be savages, and would rather our children die with his mother before they are born, and you will not be able to marry after birth, and be alone for the rest of your life, then I will not light this fire. If you're all right. I will accompany you to be a savage for the rest of your life. If something happens to you, I will die with you and your child. What do you think? ”
When Xia Zisu heard this, she complained and blamed thousands of words in her heart, and she was all blocked back by these children who didn't know where the road was. The island is indeed remote, and if this boat misses it, it may not be possible for a few years to come. Neither he nor Yan Hong can make a boat, and he doesn't even know how to build a raft, let alone whether a well-tied raft can cope with ocean navigation. It's impossible to say for sure. And the two of them have the ability to sail through the stormy waves to return to the mainland. It should not be counted. Maybe if this boat is let go, his child will really be a savage for the rest of his life......
Yan Hong hammered the nail in the coffin at this time, and then said: "Zisu, if you and I naturally have nothing to say, but you have to think about our children." Otherwise, you go, I'll stay, what do you think? ”
Xia Zisu thought: If I leave and you stay, will he have no father if he really gives birth to a child? What's more, during this period of time, the relationship between the two is getting deeper, although it is not unforgettable, but after all, it is also a husband and wife, how can they throw each other on the island. On the one hand, she wanted to give up earthly strife and settle in this paradise with peace of mind, but on the other hand, she had to think about the reality of the future.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "Then I'll leave everything with you, and go with this boat first." When we go back to Daming, purchase a batch of medicinal materials, hire a few stable women, buy a few cute boys and girls, and then go back to this island, we are not allowed to take your wife and concubine! If you dare to take them secretly, I ...... And I saw one slaying the other. ”
Yan Hongxin said, you are the second generation of Xu Fu, and you have to take boys and girls. Do you know that if you bring these people to the island, you will have to meet their subsequent needs, and in the end you will have to make regular flights between the island and the mainland. But now, of course, you don't have to compare this with the girl. He just nodded in agreement, coaxed the other party to nod for the time being, and went back to the cave to prepare things.
Yan Hong came to the beacon towers and lit the firewood and other things that were ready. For a while, black smoke billowed and was quite conspicuous. The ship apparently noticed the anomaly and approached the island.
Yan Hong stood on the hill and watched, and saw that the incoming boat was medium-sized, a few points smaller than the Haicang boat he took that day. Two masts in the front and rear, and a cannon on it. The boat approached, and the first dozen or so people to come down from above, combed their heads for the moon, pedaled clogs, and equipped with Japanese knives at their waists, and looked at the hairstyles they were wearing, and they were actually more than a dozen real widows.
Yan Hong thought that he had encountered a shipwreck, and he had broken the boat and closed the boat, and he would not return for many days, which would inevitably cause a shock in the officialdom, and the two Guangzhou sailors would do their best to find it. Therefore, when I saw the shadow of the ship, I thought that it was most likely a warship of the imperial court. I didn't know that it was actually a wolf. In the anti-Japanese war dramas he watched in his previous life, he was the most impressed by what kind of virtue the Japanese devil was. It doesn't matter if it's just me, it's a big deal. But if Xia Zisu falls into the hands of the other party, the fate is unknown. How can the number of people on this ship carry dozens of soldiers, although Xia Zisu has now recovered fifty or sixty percent of his strength, he can't compete with so many Japanese robbers. Not to mention that the other side also has muskets and artillery.
Thinking of this, he ran as fast as he could, wanting to run back to the cave and defend against the danger. That place was originally built as a place of existence after the failure of the rebellion. The entrance is narrow, which is conducive to defense and not conducive to attacking.
Of course, in Yan Hong's view, the heroic man who built the cave is a short-sighted man, and it is better to spend a lot of manpower and financial resources on building an escape shelter, so as to increase the success rate. But in this situation, this cave is just used as a defensive base. With the weapons and armor in the cave, Xia Zisu was full of martial arts and defended against danger, but it was no big deal. As long as the thieves touch the nails a few times and kill a few people, they will lose the courage to continue the attack.
He had only run a few steps before he had been spotted by the people who had come to the island. I only heard strange screams behind me, and there was a gunshot. Yan Hong didn't even know how to run his head, he ran with his hair down, only to hear someone shouting and scolding: "What are you crazy about?" Dare the fuck to shoot! We want to live! Yan Dashao, don't run, you stand for me! Stand still, oops! ”
Although Yan Hong heard the voice familiarly, but when he heard the other party shouting again and again, how could he dare to stand still, at this time, Xia Zisu had also cleaned up neatly, and came out in a strong outfit, and suddenly saw Yan Hong running, and there were people chasing behind him, and as soon as the willow eyebrows were raised, he was waiting to draw his sword to respond.
But I heard the man shout again: "Yan Dashao, don't misunderstand! I'm He Qi! He Qi of the Five Sharks in the East China Sea, what do you run? I came to you on the orders of my sister-in-law, can't you trust me, can't you trust my sister-in-law? ”
Yan Hong then remembered that the owner of this voice seemed to be He Qi, one of the five sharks in the East China Sea, who went down to Jiangnan with him at the beginning, although he raised eyebrows for most of the time along the way, but he saved Xu Hai later, and finally misunderstood Bing Shi. Hearing that the other party said that he was under Wang Cuiqiao's order, he was somewhat settled in his heart, and it was expected that Sister Cuiqiao would not harm herself. He said to Xia Zisu: "You go back first, I'll talk to them here." ”
Xia Zisu sank his face and said, "Who is his sister-in-law?" What does it have to do with you? ”
Yan Hongdao: "His sister-in-law is Wang Cuiqiao, Xu Hai's wife, you have seen it!" We are sisters and brothers, don't think crookedly. ”
Xia Zisu also remembered the scene when Jiangnan intercepted and killed that day, when he was still tense, but now he has become a pillow person, and he can only sigh that creation makes people and everything is impermanent. This ship came a few days earlier, and he had to be completely chaste, and even if he showed mercy to Yan Hong's subordinates in the future, he would not lose his innocence. If you don't come, you can live here with peace of mind and not think about earthly things. As a result, the boat came at this time, which made her heart turn a thousand times, and she couldn't help but curse this group of widows.
When He Qi first saw Xia Shisu, he was also stunned. Xindao: Where did this fairy come from? But looking at the situation between the other party and Yan Hong, knowing that Lu Dao was most likely Yan Hong's wife and concubine, he didn't dare to covet it. You must know that now on the sea, the wind is surging, and several parties are trying to find Yan Hong's traces. The strength of his people is not very strong, and he doesn't dare to stay longer, so he hurriedly kowtows and salutes: "Little Xianggong, the little one is a little offended, and I hope that the little Xianggong is not strange." Now the little one has been ordered by my brother and sister-in-law to search for the traces of the little minister and take you to meet my brother. Please also ask the minister to get on the boat quickly, don't delay. ”
Yan Hong didn't dare to fully trust these people, after all, the reputation of the pirates was really not good. However, if you don't leave at this time, you can't do it. He walked side by side with Xia Zisu and went straight to the ship. Xia Zisu held the hilt of the sword in his hand, secretly on guard, He Qi smiled bitterly: "You two don't have to be like this, you see, I have a Franc machine on this ship, and there are three or five iron cannons, if I really have bad intentions, I would have shot and fired the cannon a long time ago." I'm clumsy and clumsy, I can't speak clearly, but when I see my brother, I will naturally know what's going on. After that, he pointed out the best cabin and asked Yan Hong to rest.
Yan Hong also knew that this was most likely going to the base of the pirates, so he didn't say anything anymore. After entering the cabin, Xia Zisu just said, "Don't be careless." He let Yan Hong hold his waist and sit on the bed. Yan Hong also found that since he got on the boat, Xia Zisu's expression was a little different from that on the island, and he couldn't help comforting: "It's okay, no matter when it is, I will never fail you." ”
After a while, He Qi personally knocked on the door and said, "Young Master Yan, the food is ready." Do you always come out to use it with your brother, or do you use it with this lady in the cabin? Yan Hong said: "Send it in." He Qi agreed. After a while, there was a knock on the door, and two jugs of wine, a small barrel of white rice, a large plate of cured meat, a plate of salted radish, and a bowl of steamed yellow croaker came over.
Don't look at the simplicity of the dishes, this is already the highest standard of treatment. You must know that the Japanese daimyo eats chazuke at this time, pickled radish, and some fresh shellfish or fish, even if it is the New Year, compared to the rich peasants and small landlords at this time in the Ming Dynasty, it is not necessarily any better. And those who go to sea don't even see fresh vegetables and meat. A group of Japanese robbers, who can provide this at sea, are almost like offering Yan and Xia as ancestors. (To be continued......)
