Chapter 49: On the Luo River (3)

When the crossbowman woke up, there was already a faint light above the Luo River.

Merchant ships have long since sailed out of the jungle on both sides of the Luo River.

With a touch of fish belly white on the horizon, he lay on the chair and rubbed his eyes.

Brother Xiao, who was sleeping on the deck, was snoring.

Remembering what happened last night, it is also a dream.

The crossbowman touched his chest with his hand along his face, and his heart was shocked, and the crescent moon pendant disappeared somewhere.

He lifted the clothes on his chest and looked inside, and there was already a crescent mark on his chest.

The crossbowman's mind went blank for a moment.

There are some things that he can't figure out, no matter how much he thinks about it, why the woman he saw last night is so similar to the senior sister, whether the reason for the disappearance of the crescent pendant is related to the woman, what is the appearance of the crescent mark on the chest, whether the so-called fairy night tour is the same as what he saw, and whether the experience of the three of Brother Xiao is the same as his own...

Reasoning, it seems that all this happened a little suddenly, and a little strange.

Whether it is a blessing or a curse, since it involves the senior sister, then it must have something to do with yourself.

The crossbow man thought about it a lot, and finally thought that everything the dead ghost master had said should just go with the flow, so he relaxed.

At the bow of the ship came the sound of rod throwing primers.

The crossbowman walked away.

Old man Murong and the one-armed chivalrous man Xiao Di were sitting there fishing.

Both of them were quiet, taking care of their fishing rods and ignoring the crossbowmen who came by.

The crossbowman looked at it for a while, and felt that it was not very interesting, and looked at the surrounding scenery, only to find that they were in the middle of the lofty mountain package, and thought that he should ask the boatman where he had arrived.

Behind him, Brother Xiao's yawning voice sounded, and a lazy palm rested on his shoulder.

Brother Xiao said vaguely: "Brother, you scared Big Brother last night. ”

The crossbow man turned his head and saw a panda-eyed face.

Brother Xiao's face was covered with a greasy substance, and there was a strong smell of sweat on his body, which was extremely disgusting.

The crossbow man said tentatively: "Big brother, what happened to me last night. ”

Brother Xiao yawned again, lay on the crossbowman's shoulder weakly, and said slowly: "You kid fell into a hallucination last night with the mermaid's singing, and he couldn't wake up no matter how he called, and he was about to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river. ”

Brother Xiao then made an evil smile, "Did you see a woman on the river undressing and bathing, and I couldn't control it for a while, so I rushed over, wanting to stay and fly with others, and became the outlaw mandarin duck in the mouth of the old liar Murong." ”

The crossbowman's old face turned red, and Brother Xiao became energetic when he saw the opportunity, "Look, the eldest brother said that your kid is serious on weekdays, and what kind of dog thing is Taoist Qing Xiu, and at the critical moment, you must not show the fox's tail." ”

The crossbowman was speechless.

Brother Xiao patted the crossbow man on the shoulder, "This is not an unsightly thing, there are many strange things on the rivers and lakes, if the elder brother encounters such a good thing again, remember to bring a big brother, when the time comes, you and I will be happy together, no matter what demons and monsters she has, she is charming, as long as she deliberately hooks up, and does the soul under the skirt, I can't get it underneath, and when I see the lord of the underworld, I will also be impressed by us." ”

Brother Xiao's remarks are really unpredictable, and anyone who hears them will be shocked as "heavenly beings".

It's just that the crossbowman is really used to it anymore, just like Brother Xiao pouting his butt, he knows what shit to pull, and he knows the color, composition, and taste of the shit.

Of course, this is really disgusting, but there is no better way to describe it.

The crossbow man no longer paid attention to Brother Xiao, who was chasing after him, shrugged his shoulders, and walked into the boathouse.

After asking the boatman.

Only then did I know that this place had reached the mountains at the junction of the three lower counties of Luonan County.

The three counties are named Mangkhut County, Mamang County, and Longyan County.

The mountains are called Hot Water Mountains.

It's fun to say, the crossbow man is quite interested in the names of these three counties, mangosteen has also heard of it, it is a special fruit of Luonan County, and in the name of this, it probably means that the county is rich in mangosteen, but this hemp mang, longan, he is a little unclear.

After careful questioning, I figured out the ins and outs, this hemp mango is the common name of mango in the local area, and longan is another name for longan.

The crossbowman hurriedly lamented that he was lonely and unheard, and asked the boatman for a pot of soju, hid it in a secret place on his body, and went to the stable.

The goods in the stable were chained to a private room alone, and the treatment was excellent, and all kinds of high-quality horse food, and even lychee fruits, which were regarded as the treasure of the southern country by the nobles of the Northern League, were also placed in a large pot.

When he saw the crossbowman coming, he was not much surprised, and he had no love on his horse's face, and after chewing a lychee, he seemed to feel tasteless, and spit it out again.

The crossbowman looked like he hated that iron could not become steel, took a few from the basin, leaned against the door of the stable, and ate them, his expression was called enjoyment.

The fool was not happy, so he immediately ate a few, and then spit out the lychee skin and lychee core towards the crossbowman.

The crossbowman wiped the saliva and dirt on his face, a little helpless.

The fool stomped the horse's hooves and spun in circles, which should be for the pleasure of his master.

The crossbowman was a little angry in his heart, took out the wine jug, shook it, opened the lid of the jug, sniffed it with his nose, and said to himself: "Thirty years of Bazhou aging, it's really fragrant, and I don't know which cheap it is." ”

As soon as he smelled the aroma of wine coming from the pot, he stopped in place, stared at it for a few seconds, changed his previous arrogant attitude, and rubbed directly towards the crossbowman, licking his face with his tongue, very intimate.

The crossbowman was rubbed on his face, and he was disgusted, and finally he couldn't bear the left and right grinding of the fool, and fell into the mouth of the old horse with his tongue sticking out, and said in his mouth: "You fool, all the good things in the world are taken up by you, and you are still so dissatisfied in your heart, who is used to giving you the temperament..."

The crossbowman said this, stopped talking, laughed at himself, poured the wine in his hand, and walked out of the stable door.

The was lying comfortably on the ground, burping in his mouth.

is only a small pot of wine that is not more than half a catty, and it is supported like this, and the lychee fruit must not be eaten less.

On the deck, Brother Xiao asked for a fishing rod from nowhere, lying on the chair, the fishing rod was thrown in the water at will, his face was covered by a fan, and he didn't know whether to fish or sleep.

The three of them sat side by side, no one next to the other.

The old man Murong lifted the fishing rod lightly in his hand, and a small crystal transparent fish swung back and forth on the hook, he held the fish with one old hand, looked at it a few times, shook his head, and threw the fish into the water.

Unexpectedly, a golden carp suddenly jumped in the air, and the small fish was buried in the belly of the golden carp.

Unmoved, the old man threw the baitless hook back into the water and began to close his eyes.

Xiao Di is closest to the bow of the boat, his eyes are slightly narrowed, holding a turquoise bamboo pole, there is a row of small holes in the bamboo pole, occasionally the river phoenix blows, and the bamboo pole emits a whining ghostly sound.

There is no fishing line or hook at one end of the bamboo pole, but there are schools of fish gathered under the rod, perhaps because of the sound of the ghost.

The crossbowman watched the three of them for a few minutes, feeling extremely bored and unable to disturb him, so he had to move a bamboo recliner himself, and went to the other side of the boat to enjoy the great scenery of the Hot Water Mountains.

Somewhere away in Bazhou, a down-and-out fortune teller stood at the door of the old man of the Assassin in Nanba City, saying that he wanted to calculate the lives of the two new uncles who had recently entered the Assassin's Mansion.

After several persuasions, the palace guards were unwilling, and finally they were about to forcibly drive away, when they happened to meet two aunts and two young ladies who had returned from playing.

Yang Li discussed with Duan Shaojie, thinking that it would be enough to spend some money to send this charlatan, so Duan Shaojie respectfully handed over a large bag of unknown coins.

The fortune teller didn't refuse, and after taking it with a smile, he turned around and left.

Bao Qianqian, who was on the side, seemed to see the difference in this person, and hurriedly called him down and said, "Since Mr. said that he would tell fortunes for the two of them, please come to the house and sit down." ”

The fortune teller followed him into the Assassin's Mansion, drank tea, looked at the faces of the two of them, and then looked at the palm prints.

Occupy a hang for the two of them.

As soon as Duan Shaojie hung up, the fortune teller roughly said something like if you follow the official career, you need to make good friends, and you can get official luck and Henda.

The little boy of the Duan family seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and asked a thoughtless word, "Who is a good friend." ”

The fortune teller smiled and said no more.

Yang Li hung up, and the fortune teller had an explanation, "Being in the home of the prince and general, remember to do things absolutely, make friends, and don't always think about taking advantage of a way, you may achieve hegemony in the future." ”

After the fortune teller finished the calculation for the two of them, the tea was slightly cold, and he got up and left.

There is a saying behind him, "Why does Mr. count me for two today?" ”

"You two are destined for my little junior brother."

After the fortune teller finished speaking, the figure was no longer in the house.

Several people behind him thought of the little Taoist in the cyan robe.

Otherwise, who else.

In the Nanyun Capital City, in the study of King Yan, the young man in the dragon robe is criticizing the folding.

A figure of a hat appeared next to the carved dragon bookcase with various landscape paintings and classic books.

The figure swiped his fingers across the treasures of the country, silent.

The young man in the dragon robe frowned slightly, coughed, and the woman in palace clothes who was sitting on the desk and studying ink slowly retreated.

The young man in the dragon robe spoke: "Come here in person, how about going to Bazhou?" ”

The figure hand was designated on a scroll of calligraphy and painting, and with a flick of it, the scroll fell on the table in front of the young man in the dragon robe.

The young man in the dragon robe opened the picture scroll, and the four words "mountains and rivers have no earning" were mentioned on the scroll.

There was already a white-faced old eunuch on the side.

The young man in the dragon robe said in a deep voice: "Let the fourth brother go and meet this crossbow family for a while." ”

The old eunuch left in a hurry.

The young man in the dragon robe looked at the bookcase again, it was empty, and his eyes began to deepen...

Also located in the Great General's Mansion in Nanyun Capital, the woman in the plain skirt changed into a man's dress today.

She said softly to the burly middle-aged man beside her, "When did my father leak the news?" ”

The man's face changed slightly, but he did not speak.

The woman knew it and didn't want to ask more.

In fact, even if his father didn't say it, the one in the palace must have known about it, but it was better to say it from his mouth than to say it from others.

The man looked at the daughter next to him, who was even more domineering than himself, and reminded, "Do you want to let the virtuous nephew know?" ”

The woman's eyes froze, "If this is the case, it will make others suspicious, and it will hurt him when the time comes." ”

The man nodded, not saying anything, but he was very proud in his heart.
