Chapter 53: The Boat in the River
The stars hang down the plains, the moon swells in the river, and on the wide and turbulent river, there is a small boat going down the coast. The boatman is Huanglong's meticulous work, and as soon as he picked up Sun Shao and Qishi, he set off for Lujiang County with full sails.
Qi Shi was lying on his side in the cabin, his face was red, and he was already in a state of clouds, mountains and fog. The wine was rising, her eyes closed, and her body was undulating with the waves with the boat together.
"Ashi, drink some water." Sun Shao took a bamboo tube, opened the stopper, and poured a glass of water.
Qishi raised his hand to pick it up, and his drunken eyes fluttered into the air. She raised her hand again, and missed the glass again.
Sun Shao couldn't cry or laugh, if he was asked to choose again, he would definitely fight with Gan Ning instead of Qishi. Qishi said that the bronze sparrow would come to stop it, but there was no shadow of half of the sail halfway through the voyage.
"I just said let me go and fight for wine, you see you drink like this." Sun Shao brought the water cup to Qishi's mouth and fed her water little by little.
Qishi drank some water and felt better, she touched Sun Shao's chin with her hand and said, "Childe, when did I miss it?" If you don't fight for wine, can you go to the appointment with Gan Ning's cautious appearance? I don't know much about the Bronze Sparrow's actions, can't you trust Ashna? ”
This move startled Sun Shao, he looked at the misty eyes of the world, and said in a loud voice: "I believe you, I believe you, drink a little more water?" ”
"Childe, if you don't go outside now, we'll all have to drink river water in a while!"
As if it had been fulfilled, the boatman hurriedly said: "There are two clippers, one south and one north, attacking us!" "One south and one north, that is, the left and right meet the enemy. The clippers used, narrow and long, were extremely fast.
Sun Shao put down the water cup, took out the bow and arrow from the cabin, and lifted the quiver again, "Ah Shi, you hide in the warehouse and watch me retreat!" ”
The army on the river is the sharpest, and the bow and arrow are the sharpest. Arrows carry the wind and are extremely lethal. Naval training, this archery is the first priority.
When attacking Shanyue Cottage before, Sun Shao witnessed the foot trainer save Qishi by crossing Yang in a hundred steps, and made up his mind to practice bows and arrows. Guarding Zhou Xu and saving Qishi in the shallows are the result of his hard work.
At this time, he stepped on the bow of the boat, and his heart was even more excited. There are figures on the left and right clippers, and you can see a little fire.
The enemy wanted to use rockets, and Sun Shao decisively drew his bow and arrows to identify the direction of the wind and the speed of the ship. "Whoosh!" He preemptively shot an arrow, and someone in the boat on the right rolled over and fell into the water.
An exclamation came, and the enemy obviously didn't expect Sun Shao's archery skills to be so steady.
Sun Shao secretly admired Qishi, if he was drunk, even if he boarded the ship smoothly, if he encountered the Tongque block, he would not be able to shoot such a high-quality arrow anyway.
"Ah Shi, you are really like a god!" Sun Shao shot two more arrows, and another person on the boat on the right fell into the water. They didn't dare to approach Sun Shao's boat, so their speed slowed down all of a sudden, and they gradually deviated from the route.
"Childe, watch out on the left. They were going to grab the ship. It turned out that at some point, Qishi leaned out of the cabin and pointed to the left.
The clipper was approaching, and there was no one on it, so they must have been hiding.
"You go back! With me, I won't let them board the ship! ”
"Childe, there's a spear in the cabin." Qi Shi grabbed the end of the spear and staggered to send it to Sun Shao.
Sun Shao hurriedly continued, but Qi Shi fell down all of a sudden, and his head hit the ship. "It hurts! Hurt! Hurt! Kiyo raised his head and rubbed his head with his hands.
This is drunkenness, isn't it...... Sun Shao looked at Qishi helplessly, this was the first time he had seen this kind of image. But at this time, there was no time to think about it, the clipper on the left was already about to take over, and there were two bare-legged and short-clothed enemies with short knives in their mouths, and they were about to pounce.
Sun Shao's wrist flicked, the spear was thrown like a long dragon, and although an enemy dodged, Sun Shao's spear move changed, knocking him into the river.
The other enemy jumped to his feet and was about to jump into the ship. Sun Shao threw down his spear, walked over with an arrow, and slammed his fist into the man's face.
"Ahh The man screamed, his body changed direction in the air, and he fell heavily into the river.
The clipper on the left also slowed down, busy salvaging his companion who had fallen overboard. And their ship escaped from being flanked and sailed straight downstream.
"It's not dangerous, are you okay?" Sun Shao picked up Qi Shi and pressed his hand on Qi Shi's forehead.
"It's okay! I'm fine! Qi Shi emphasized, she patted Sun Shao's shoulder, "Sun Yunhan! It's very good at fighting! ”
Sun Shao poured another glass of water, this time holding Qishi in his arms, and coaxed: "Drink water first, okay?" ”
"Hmph." Qishi didn't know what he was talking about, but he obediently opened his mouth and drank. After drinking half a glass of water, Qi Shi raised his head sharply and stared at Sun Shao.
"Childe, you say."
"Huh? What should I say? ”
"Do you like Miss Zhou?"
Sun Shao said: "Ah Shi, I don't have it!" ”
"That's good. Some women look beautiful and pure, but in fact, they have a femme fatale heart! There is a name for green tea...... I won't talk about that later. Qishi waved his hand, looking indignant.
Sun Shao wanted to speak and stopped, he originally wanted to defend Zhou Che, but seeing that Qishi was emotional, it was inconvenient to say it.
"My family and the Zhou family are world friends, and they have been like a family for many years. So my relationship with Zhou Che is similar to that of brother and sister, I didn't ......" Sun Shao was halfway through his speech, when he suddenly heard a slight snoring. He looked down and saw that it was Qishi who had fallen asleep in his arms.
Qi Shi's face was flushed, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slept very sweetly. She could be said to have fallen asleep until dawn, and there was no sign of waking up.
Sun Shao sat like this for half a night, and heard the boatman say: "Son, we are about to dock, and Lujiang County is about to arrive." ”
"Okay, boatman." He couldn't help but ask, "Do you still want to go back to Jiangxia?" ”
The boatman smiled: "Don't go back, Miss Ah Shi said, I have worked for Huanglong for many years, and now I can go anywhere I want." ”
"And where do you want to go?"
"Jiaozhou. I heard that there were sea boats there, and I wanted to go out into the ocean! ”
"Is there anyone else in your family?"
"It's all gone. Many of us in Huanglong are like this, and there is only one person left in the family. ”
Sun Shao lowered his voice and said, "What about Ah Shi?" ”
The boatman put away the sails and said, "She is an orphan, she was about three or four years old when she came to Huanglong." We all grew up watching her, and she respects us very much, so we are willing to listen to her. ”
"That'...... Do you have a Mr. Wolong, what kind of person is he? ”
"Mr. Wolong is too knowledgeable, and there is nothing he doesn't know about heaven and earth. In the Yellow Dragon Gate, Ah Shi Neng ranks second, and the first is Mr. Wolong. ”
"Oooh...... So is he good for Ah Shi? ”
"Okay, okay, it's like a sister-in-law. There is also Mr. Wolong's wife, who especially likes Ah Shi. Childe, it's landed, let's not talk about it! ”
Sun Shao nodded, he shook Qishi's hand and shook Qishi awake. Qishi stretched and said blankly, "Where have we been?" ”
"We're home."
