Chapter 81: The Seventeen Heroes of the Yellow River
"Girl......" Xie Changfeng called her behind him, and then remembered her name: "Miss Shang." ”
"Huh?" Shang Jiu Ge turned his head and looked at Xie Changfeng: "Are you looking for me?" ”
Xie Changfeng nodded: "I have arranged a cabin for the girl, the girl will go and see it later?" ”
"No, no." Shang Jiu Ge shook his head and said.
Xie Changfeng was curious: "Why don't you go?" ”
"It's not fun there, it's fun here." Shang Jiu Ge said quietly.
She closed her eyes and felt the river breeze and the slight shaking of the boat.
"Why isn't it fun? Why is it interesting? Xie Changfeng continued to ask.
"It's not interesting because people there are talking about me and it's boring." Shang Jiu Ge looked at the river in front of him that was separated by the boat.
The wind is blowing.
Xie Changfeng was silent.
Because the ship is now talking about this homeless woman on the boat, of course, Xie Changfeng himself is also the object of discussion, after all, no matter how fishy or smelly, he stuffs such an evaluation into his room, so that no one will be happy when he hears it.
And Xie Changfeng really arranged for an orphan girl of unknown origin who was wandering on the shore on the boat.
Xie Changfeng thought that Shang Jiu Ge didn't know, but he didn't expect Shang Jiu Ge to know everything.
"Those who are clear are self-purifying." Xie Changfeng said.
"Thank you." Shang Jiu Ge said with a smile: "But it's really fun to take a boat, if I have the opportunity, I will often take more boats." ”
"Thank you for taking me on the boat."
Most of the girl's body was hanging on the river, and the sailboat was swaying from side to side, and she might fall off the boat at any moment.
The Yellow River is not an ordinary river, if it falls, it may be swept away in an instant, and no matter how good the water is, it will not save her.
"Girl, be careful." Xie Changfeng reminded: "The saint has clouds, the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and the son of the daughter does not sit in the hall." ”
"It's kind of funny that you're full of mouths." Shang Jiuge smiled: "Don't worry, I don't do dangerous things." ”
"Or what you think is dangerous, it's not dangerous to me."
The girl smiled very confidently, or calmly.
And at this time, the entire hull suddenly shook very violently.
Xie Changfeng didn't stand on the splint, lost his balance in an instant, and was about to fly out.
And at that moment, Shang Jiuge, who was still sitting on the edge of the boat with his hands on his hands and was obviously more dangerous, jumped down with his hands, and just as Xie Changfeng was about to fly out on the sailboat that had been tilted to nearly seventy or eighty degrees, she firmly grabbed Xie Changfeng's hand.
Xie Changfeng looked up, but saw Shang Jiuge standing on the almost straight deck, but it seemed to be more stable than on flat ground.
She reached out and grabbed herself, but showed a clean and grand smile: "Look. ”
"I'm safer than you." Saying this, the hull of the ship continued to stagger, and Shang Jiuge stood on the violently shaking boat, his feet as if rooted, and at the same time tightly grasped Xie Changfeng's hand, so that he would not fly out of this extremely thrilling ship.
"And."
"It's fun to take a boat."
Xie Changfeng really admired it, at this time, Shang Jiu Ge could still laugh.
And the most dangerous thing about the sailboat was the first two hits, and slowly the movement became smaller, Xie Changfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but heard a thunderous cry from the whole boat.
"Seventeen Heroes of the Yellow River!"
"Come and ask the river god for the blessing of this ship!"
Xie Changfeng's face turned white.
Instead, Shang Jiuge saw Xie Changfeng's reaction and asked, "What do you know about the Seventeen Heroes of the Yellow River?" ”
Xie Changfeng nodded and said in a low voice: "The Seventeen Heroes of the Yellow River are the most famous river thieves up and down the Yellow River, and they will charge a toll for every boat traveling on the Yellow River, which is bigger than the face of the government. ”
"The merchant ships that come and go can only pray for luck not to meet them."
"But if you really encounter it, then you can only break the fortune and eliminate the disaster."
Shang Jiuge didn't seem to understand Xie Changfeng's words at all, she smiled: "It turns out that the government is so faceless?" ”
"It's not that the government has no face, it's that those people are monsters!" Xie Changfeng corrected Shang Jiuge's words: "They stepped on the river surface like walking on the ground, and they could cut the steel knife empty-handed, and they only came to the Yellow River for half a year, and they cleaned up the original thieves who were petty thieves, and the government came to encircle and suppress them, and sent three or five people to beat hundreds of people to the ground, and they are known as the seventeen heroes of the Yellow River, so there are seventeen such monsters." ”
"And now that they have become the overlords on the surface of the Yellow River, they don't have to do those face-losing things, merchants come and go, as long as they pay the silver across the river and honor the river god, then they can pass safely and soundly, and they won't make things difficult for you."
Shang Jiu Ge looked at Xie Changfeng: "So what if it's not called silver?" ”
"If you don't pay the money, it depends on whether you eat wontons or knife noodles." Xie Changfeng said with palpitations.
"Then they're pretty good." Shang Jiu Ge said in surprise: "I also invite someone to eat." ”
"This food is eaten and eaten." Xie Changfeng corrected Shang Jiuge's cognition.
"Wonton is when you get dressed and jump down on your own, just like you get off the ravioli." Xie Changfeng looked at Shang Jiuge: "The knife plate noodles are to cut you down with a knife, just like cutting noodles with a knife." ”
Shang Jiuge thought for a while: "Then it's not fun at all, they're not good people." ”
"There aren't so many good girls in this world." Xie Changfeng shook his head and smiled: "I'll pay the boat fare in a while, the girl must not come out, as long as you pay the money, you can pass." ”
"When you're away from home, it's the best thing to be able to break the bank."
Saying this, Xie Changfeng took Shang Jiuge's hand: "Let's go to the front and have a look." ”
Shang Jiu Ge nodded: "Well, then let's go to the front and have a look." ”
She scratched her head, followed behind Xie Changfeng, made the aisle of the cabin, and came to the deck of the bow.
I saw three tall figures in black cloaks standing on the bow deck, one of them with two boxes in front of them, one box with scattered silver taels, and the other box with a small sign made of wood, which seemed to have the words "river god" and the like, but it was not clear from a distance.
"The old rules." I only heard the man in the lead say coldly, and under his feet, Shang Jiu Ge saw that the boatman who had fanned himself on the shore before was falling there, and he looked like he had passed out.
It seems that the big movement of the sailboat just now was caused by them.
"A god card of the river god praying for blessings, sell it for one or two silver."
"If you buy a god card, you will be blessed by the river god along the way, and you will be safe and sound along the way."
He looked at a row of black-pressed boatmen standing on the opposite side of the deck: "Of course, if you don't buy the god card, then if something happens on this Yellow River, there are three long and two short." ”
"So."
He smiled, "It's the river god who is to blame." ”
