Chapter 101: Abandoning ship
The two boats gradually approached, and the old man also saw the dilemma faced by Li Bai's boat, and immediately guessed the reason for Li Bai's strange behavior of blocking the water, and he also felt very funny.
"Old man, can you make it convenient for us to give us a ride?" Seeing that he had reached the distance where he could board the ship, Li Bai slammed a wave of water and asked loudly.
"This little brother, I'm not the person in charge of this ship, if you want to take a boat, let me ask our young master." Although the old man's beard is white, his voice is also hearty and gentle, and he is a respectable senior.
"Uncle Li, you can decide what to do, I came out this time to follow you to learn more." A lazy voice suddenly came from behind the old man in Tsing Yi, but there was some helplessness in respect.
"Young master, this time, the master personally named you to preside over it, but you threw all the old bones to me." The old man also has a headache for this young master, but he is helpless to watch the young master grow up since he was a child, not only because of the relationship between master and servant, but also because of the spoiling in his heart.
The old man shook his head slightly, and turned his gaze to Li Bai's side again, only to find that the ship under Li Bai's feet had some traces of falling apart, and the firescale beast scale armor covered in many places was nowhere to be found, so he quickly replied: "Little brother, you quickly gather your people and come over together." I don't think your boat will last a few more than a few times. ”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, he saw several wooden boats thrown down from the boat opposite, and some of them were carrying some sturdy men, and some of them jumped directly into the water, all of them with a rope around their waists, and were dragged by their companions on the boat, so that they would not be swept away by the river. After three minutes, all the 100 people on the boat reached the other party's boat safely, and climbed up the soft ladder that the old man had thrown down. At this time, Li Bai, who was responsible for preventing accidents, flew to the other party's boat.
Boom! Li Bai looked back and saw that the ship that had lost his shelter had finally died, washed into a pile of wood chips by the water. Before he could secretly rejoice, a young man about 20 years old had already walked in front of him, the young man was dressed in a pure white robe, his face was handsome, and he had a pair of watery peach blossom eyes, but there was a cynical atmosphere all over his body. The old man in Tsing Yi was following behind the young man, carefully looking at Li Bai's face and cultivation bearing, and his expression became more and more solemn.
"Friend, my name is Qin Yi, this is Uncle Li, Qin Li. If you have any needs, just go to Uncle Li, he is the big butler on our ship. "The young man's lazy fist is a little bit of the friendship of the landlord.
"Young Master Qin." Li Bai clenched his fists and thought for a while before he held back such a title: "My name is Li Taibai, thank you for letting us on the boat, and we are also grateful." But can you tell me where you're going to stop? ”
The boy was stunned suddenly, as if he had been stunned by something. He asked incredulously: "This Brother Li, don't you know who I am?" Don't you really know where we're going? ”
"You are the young master of the Tianshui Qin family, but why do I want to know where are you going?"
"Oh, it's good to know the Tianshui Qin family," the young man breathed a sigh of relief.
"This flag says that I am not blind."
"Where are you from? It shouldn't be outside Tianshui County, your broken boat can't hold out so far. "The young man is completely helpless, there are people in Tianshui County who don't know the 'Qin family', and there are people who don't know the Tao of his Yi son!
"To tell you the truth, we are really not from Tianshui County, but from Beiping County." Li Bai explained seriously.
"Beiping County? Little brother, you are scolding us! I haven't heard that there was a county called 'Beiping' in the Great Xia Dynasty. Qin Li was obviously a little displeased, with his age and knowledge, most of the county level and above in the Great Xia Dynasty knew the Dao, and the county governance around Tianshui County was even more clear, but he had no impression of the name Beiping County at all.
Li Bai frowned, his face turned cold, he felt that this Qin Li was purely looking for trouble. Beiping County and Tianshui County are obviously neighbors, so it is impossible for him not to know the way.
The atmosphere suddenly cooled down, but Lin Hu and the others couldn't interject at all. After all, this world is to speak by strength, Li Bai, Qin Yi and Qin Li are all masters of the foundation building realm, they can talk on an equal footing, but if Lin Hu and the others interject, it will further worsen the situation. At this time, Qin Yi suddenly remembered something, and his eyes flashed.
"Brother Li, the Tianshui County you are talking about won't be the forbidden place around our Tianshui County, right?"
"Forbidden Place? Tianshui County was indeed shrouded in formations before, and it was unable to communicate with the outside world. It's also fitting to be called a forbidden place. Li Bai raised his eyebrows, and also found that there seemed to be some misunderstanding.
"That's right, I heard my dad mention that it seems that the forbidden land can indeed be entered and exited a few years ago, but at least it must have the strength of a king, and it is barren and barren inside, and there is no development value at all, so I didn't mention it to others. Later, I heard that the Great Xia Dynasty also gave the forbidden place the name of a county, and I thought it was the 'Beiping County' in Brother Li's mouth. ”
As soon as Qin Yi explained, the old man immediately cleared his thoughts, and actually hugged Li Baiyi, and said apologetically: "Xiaoyou, the old man misunderstood just now, I hope you don't mind." ”
Li Bai hurriedly replied: "Uncle Li said that he laughed, how could I mind, you are also for the sake of safety." ”
"Ha Luha, little friendly mind. We have successfully completed the task this time, and now we are about to return to Jiuya City, I don't know what the little brother wants? The old man didn't ask more, but changed the topic very cleverly.
"That's really a good relationship, I'm about to go to Jiuya City to have something to do, it looks like I'm going to bother for a few more days." Li Bai immediately climbed up the pole, before he was still worried about how to find Jiuya City, but now someone took the initiative to send it to the door, and it was really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it didn't take any effort to get there.
The old man immediately summoned a boatman and asked him to arrange a place for Li Bai and the others to stay. After he finished his order, Lin Hu stood up with some apprehension: "Senior, where is the nearest dock?" Could you please drop me off with some of my brothers at the nearest pier. We're not going to Nine Ends City. ”
Qin Li glanced at Li Bai, and when he saw him nodding, he ordered the ship to dock nearby. It's only two hours away from the nearest pier, which saves them from arranging accommodation. Qin Li saw that Li Bai wanted to speak and stopped, and returned to the bow of the boat with interest, but Qin Yi on the side seemed to be very interested in him, but he didn't want to avoid it. Looking at his enthusiastic smile, Li Bai was embarrassed to ask Qin Yi to avoid it, but he didn't have anything confidential to talk about.
"Brother Hu, why don't you want to go to Jiuya City, the county will always develop better than other places."
"Ha Luha, Brother Taibai. You have forgotten the purpose of my coming out, and if you want to open the channel between Beiping County and the outside world, you can't get too far. Lin Hu replied with a smile, but his tone was extremely firm.
"Since that's the case, then I wish Brother Tiger a speedy success." Li Bai was reluctant to force it. The respect for Lin Hu is deeper, he is a responsible and courageous man. Although going to Jiuya City can have greater development, he still hasn't forgotten the players in Beihai City who have high hopes for him, as well as the vast number of aborigines.
Lin Hu patted him on the shoulder: "If you have a chance to see him again, don't forget, you are the veteran of our 'Jinfan Thief'." ”
"Ha Luha, rest assured, I won't forget. Isn't there a carrier pigeon, just give me a flying pigeon if you have something. ”
"Alas, don't you say that I really think I'm back in ancient times, this drama is getting deeper and deeper." Lin Hu scratched his head and said he was helpless.
