Chapter 6: Encounters
The sunset color the clouds, the river red, and the water sparkle and shimmer, like fireworks scattered after the sky bursts open.
If you were swayed by the water for a long time, you had to squint your eyes. I really can't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, and I can't know how far away from the Lingjiang River is.
The bottom of the boat was slowly seeping water, and it seemed that she would have to abandon the ship after a short time.
"Huh? The little dot in front, is it a boat? β
Putting down the hand that was about to stroke his hair, he stood up excitedly. Because of her movements, the bottom of the boat increased the speed of water seepage, and it sank a few more points into the water.
At the confluence of the two rivers, there is a two-story ship, and there is a faint figure flickering on the deck.
"Great! You don't need to make soup chicken! β
Swap the Qingfeng sword to the left hand, and use the internal force to hit the boat with the right hand, whoosh-
In an instant, the small boat under him rowed swiftly in the direction of the big ship like an arrow from a string.
After calculating the distance, he rose into the air for a long time, and flew up to the bow of the boat like a dragonfly.
"Who?"
"Zhengβ"
A dagger stabbed her from behind at a very tricky angle, forcing Rujiu to turn around and meet her with her sword.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just passing by and trying to get a ride."
In the time of one sentence, the two have already fought back and forth a few times. If you have been on the boat for a long time, it is true that you got on the boat without the permission of the owner, and it is normal for people to be angry, so they have never had the mentality of fighting.
It's just that she keeps her hands everywhere, just passively blocking them, but people who come have to kill inch by inch, which also makes her angry.
The blade of the sword was thrown into the air and rotated, and the hilt of the sword was precisely grasped and the scabbard was detached. The white light flashed and pulled out a few sword flowers, and if he wanted to let go of his hands and feet for a long time, he was doing-
"Lin Feng, stop!"
When the man with the dagger heard this, he immediately retracted and retreated.
There were already several more people on deck.
Standing at the forefront was a young man of twelve or thirteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, and clear eyebrows. He was dressed in azure satin, with delicate patterns embroidered with gold thread on the cuffs between the collar, and a jade pendant hanging from his waist. Judging from the dress and temperament, it looks like a son of a certain family.
"Who are you?"
Lin Yuanzhi was also looking at the sudden "guest" in front of him quietly.
The person who came will only reach the position of his chest, and his age can be seen to be much younger than himself, but he can see that his body is elegant, but he can live with Lin Feng, who has the highest martial arts, without doing his best, so many moves, which is really amazing.
Rujiu withdrew his sword, raised his hand and bowed, "This son, I'm sorry, my boat suddenly seeped into the water, but I got on your ship first without permission, I hope you forgive me for the offense." β
As far as the eye could see, the boat was half-sunk not far away, its bow raised upward, and it wouldn't be long before it was all in the water.
Seeing that what he said was true, Lin Yuan was clear, his slender eyes narrowed slightly, covering the waves surging inside, "In this case, little brother doesn't have to be polite, there are still many vacant rooms in the boat for rest." β
Brother?
Rujiu raised his eyebrows and secretly examined it, the gray robe, the long hair tied up, and the young and undeveloped body, it seems that he really looks like a boy?
didn't deliberately explain, Rujiu clenched his fists again and raised his hand to signal, "I'm bothered, thank you again for your son's benevolence." β
"You don't have to be so polite, Lin Feng took this little brother to rest."
"Yes, Childe."
β¦β¦
Fingers subconsciously knocked in front of the table, as if she hadn't ignored it for a long time before turning to leave, the hot gaze behind her.
There's a problem.
But if you don't know each other, what kind of intrigue can you have? Against a stranger?
walked to the bed and lay down in her clothes, Rujiu hugged Qingfeng and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, hoping that she thought too much.
β¦β¦
Halfway through the night, it began to rain, turning from a thin line of rain to a curtain of beads.
With a slight movement of his ears, Rujiu, who was sleeping lightly, immediately got up, pushed open the window on the side, and listened carefully to the movement outside.
Sure enough, in addition to the sound of the rain, there was also the clanging sound of weapons after hand-to-hand combat.
Without hastily walking out of the room, she quickly paced back to the table, took her things one by one, and retreated into the shadows to hide.
But in the middle of the tea time, the sound of hurried footsteps of many people was heard from far and near.
"Little brother, are you there?"
Lin Yuanzhi's slightly anxious voice came, "Little brother! Open the door! β
"It's too late, Childe, get out of the way, and your subordinates will knock the door open."
"Bang-"
The wooden door panel was violently shaken and fell down instantly, and several people outside the house quickly entered the room.
"Whoosh-"
"Childe be careful!"
"Qiang~"
The dodged arrow pierced the stake, and the feathers at the end of the arrow were still trembling. Hiding behind a stake is like a long time.
It turned out that he was playing with this idea.
However, if she can tell her calmly before this, she doesn't care if she uses the right as the fare. It's just that such a cautious calculation is really annoying.
I saw a large number of black-clothed people pouring in, and they were ruthless, but in a moment, the people on the young man's side were all injured.
Holding the pills that had been prepared early between his two fingers, he appeared in the crowd like a long flash, and with a hard squeeze of his hand, the pink powder flew, and an extreme fragrance came, filling the entire cabin in Sumeru.
When he turned around, the only person standing outside the boat was Rujiu himself.
Compared with the masters, they always develop colorless and odorless poisons and medicines, but they prefer to make them with bright colors and different aromas and tastes.
Colorless and odorless is just a fear of being discovered, so as long as it can be activated in an instant, isn't it?
For this, she also spent a lot of time researching and improving the prescription, I don't know if the master will be angry if the coffin board can't be suppressed, and angrily reprimanded her for not doing her job, hehe~ Anyway, for this little hobby, she decided not to change!
He took out the white porcelain pill bottle in his arms, uncorked it, and poured out five round cyan pills. Rujiu kneaded each ball in half, and then fed it into the mouths of Lin Yuanzhi and his party one by one.
"This half of the antidote pill is counted as the ship's fare, and the remaining half is the price you calculate for me."
patted Lin Yuanzhi's white and tender face, and stood up for a long time, "The ancients had a cloud: only villains and women are difficult to raise." Unfortunately, I accounted for both. So that you can wake up a quarter of an hour before the man in black, sure enough, I still have too good a heart~"
It is indeed selectively forgotten that the ecstasy she has improved, especially the magical fragrant fruit. Not only can it pour people but also hallucinate, although it is an illusion, but after waking up, it will be completely hidden on the body.
For example, if you are stabbed ten times in a fantasy, although you will not die or bleed after waking up, the injured part will still be painful and uncomfortable.
The antidote was only given half of it, so they could only ask for more blessings for themselves, and the illusion they were experiencing should not be too cruel.
"Blind with a pure and good-looking face. Then we'll be indefinite teenagers. β
After saying that, he didn't stay for a long time, picked up Qingfeng and walked out of the cabin.
The rain was still dripping, and a long embankment appeared on the riverbank.
Under the half-hidden moon, the figure of the person who was still in the rain a moment ago looked like a ghost, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye, and no trace of her could be found.
