Chapter 43, get off the boat and go shopping

There was a rush on the boat, and in a hurry, the people who came on board couldn't figure out where the screams were coming from. And the people on the boat quickly responded, and they all rushed out with their hands in their hands.

There was a clanging sound of swords outside, and the lotus ran from her bed to Xiao Chu's side, scared and comforting at the same time: "Xiao Chu, don't be afraid, don't be afraid of Xiaoyi, I'm not afraid." ”

The three of them shrunk in a quilt, and the quilt was trembling from the outside, and it was unknown who was shaking badly. Anyway, the three of them are afraid, and Lin Xiaochu is no exception.

There was only a tinkling sound in his ears, and after a while, there was a knock on the door, and Chu Huaixian shouted and asked, "How are you?" Don't come out. Xiaochu Lotus and Xiaoyi agreed together: "Don't come out." "I don't go out even if I die, it's the safest in this quilt, and it's warm.

Chu Huaixian didn't have time to smile, dodged the slash that came over, stabbed the opponent's arm with a sword, and the knife fell to the ground with a "dang" sound, and the injured person turned around and left. The three people in the room listened to the knife fall to the ground, first startled, and then listened to the movement, as if the sound outside the door was fading away, and then they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The night flowed quietly in the hull of the ship and the river, and in the boundless darkness, the man in black came and retreated as fast as he could. The occasional reflection of the river is sparkling, and the air is so cold that it makes people's faces like a layer of frost. Chu Huaixian wiped the long sword clean, and the tip of his nose could still smell blood. Not only the sword is still on the body, but there are also blood stains on the deck, these are the dozen or so men in black.

"Ahem, Brother Huaixian, your skills are really good." Liang Long is a weak scholar, and it is okay to have a few fights with his son's brothers, but when he encounters such a time, he wisely does not come out until now.

Sailors on board clean up the blood on the deck and inspect the ship's equipment. A family member hurriedly came over and replied: "Childe, they are digging the bottom of the boat, fortunately they found it early." ”

Who is it that has been with me several times? Chu Huaixian looked at the swarthy river and suddenly asked, "Whose rule is this?" The family had already identified it, and when they saw it, they answered: "What a blessing it is to be guarded here." Chu Huaixian, who was familiar with officials everywhere, narrowed his eyes, He Fu was a person who was born with King Zhongshan. The last time the assassin was extremely stupid, he was wearing the waist card of King Zhongshan. Thinking of them digging the bottom of the boat again, Chu Huaixian sneered and whispered: "Since you want me to go ashore, let's go ashore and have a look." ”

At the moment, he instructed Jin Xi'er: "Stay and wait for us on the dock outside the Beijing Gate with the boat." You call them up, and it may be safer to walk on the ground than on the boat. ”

Xiao Chu, Lotus and Little Pasta looked at each other at the hatch of the ship, but let them think about it, it was much safer to walk on the ground and live in the hotel than on this lonely ship. Without waiting for Jin Xi'er to come over, the three of them turned around together, all with the same meaning, to pack their luggage. When he turned around, he saw the fragrance of his hand holding the wall, and the pale fragrance whispered: "Mom, have you seen such a big pool of blood?" ”

Xiao Yi cocked his little nose and smiled: "Just don't look at the deck, I'll just look at the sky." Lin Xiaochu said with concern: "Are you afraid? I'll help you to the cabin, we're going ashore, and going ashore is more lively than on the ship. "It's going to be the New Year, in fact, I like it when I go to land to see the scenery along the way.

Fang Xiang hesitated, and said pitifully: "Childe, will he take me away?" Jin Xi'er walked over, heard this, and only said behind his back: "You all pack up, just bring two or three clothes with you, and buy what you don't have enough to wear on the road." ”

The three of them went back to pack their things, but there were not many assassins who were afraid, and there were a lot of fun going ashore to watch the excitement. was cleaning up, and Fang Xiang and Zhu Niang came over together. The two of them were more bottomless than the other, and Zhu Niang and Liang Long were asking first: "How do we go?" ”

"I don't know yet, we're all women who can't walk, so we have to have a car." Lotus is so conjectured. Aroma accompanied the smiling face: "I only have one set of clothes, and the replacement on this body is still the lotus girl's." ”

Xiao Chu handed over a set of white silk shirts and red silk skirts, and said with a smile: "You wrap this again, we have it on the road, we can use some of it." ”

On the deck, Liang Long was deliberating about tonight's matter for Chu Huaixian: "If you want to check the details of these people, it is much more convenient to take the kid alone." Although I am not talented, I can send these girls to Beijing. ”

"Let's go shopping together, there is a good scenery on this shore, how good it is for us to go to Beijing." Chu Huaixian showed a completely thoughtless smile, as if he had forgotten about the assassination just now.

Jin Xi'er came out with a big burden on her back and asked the sailors to find a place to dock the big ship. It was early in the morning when the Assassins came, and it was only half a watch away from the fifth watch. The women all came out with their burdens on their backs, Chu Huaixian stood upright on the bow of the boat, and a cold light flashed on his waist in the dark night, and it was the gems set on his sword that were shining.

The north wind blew up the coat of the child, he did not wear a cloak, and his messy black hair brushed beside his face, and he looked like a god. The fragrance can not hide the flow of affection in the heart, it is a ridiculous thing to like the guests when the top brand, but the fragrance is somewhat affectionate. If you want to ask her whether she likes Chu Huaixian's family background or appearance, this is actually mixed up.

Xiao Chu also felt that Childe was even more handsome tonight, especially when he repelled the thieves, which made the girl fall in love with her. secretly looked at Zhu Niang, she only looked at Liang Longzheng; Look at the lotus again, it's over, and the eyes are extraordinarily outspoken.

"Are you dressed enough?" Hearing the movement behind him, Chu Huaixian turned around and asked coldly and warmly. Fang Xiang lowered his head as soon as he looked at him, but he actually understood that Chu Huaixian was looking at everyone.

In this kind of scene, Fang Xiang didn't dare to reply to her identity, Zhu Niang smiled respectfully, Xiao Chu didn't grab the first prize, only the lotus replied: "Wear enough, get a cloak for the son, right?" Xiaoyi has been said many times by her sister, it's not that the son points to the name alone and asks, so when there are many people, he doesn't rush back.

"No need." Chu Huaixian seemed to have turned around just to ask about the warmth and coldness, and after saying that, he turned his body and stared at the estuary, of course he had something on his mind. Xiao Chu thought that he should also think about it when he changed people.

Because it was dark and the road here was unfamiliar, the boat stopped and people went down, and the sound of five watches could be heard. Jin Xi'er looked around at the darkness and said, "There are lights there, I saw it just now, it should be a market town." The sound of the wilderness is heard, and the sound of beating is also far away. ”

This boy suddenly rose up and got off the boat with the girls, as if he was a pampered boy and brother on the road. Xiao Chu can walk, and so can Xiaoyi. The lotus bead girl has worked hard and can keep up. Only the fragrance didn't go far and was a little tired, and the sweat soaked the clothes, and the sweat was strong to follow.

It was dark and you could see that there was a small village not far ahead. The rooster crowed one after another, and a thatched hut appeared on the side of the road, Chu Huaixian asked Jin Xi'er to see: "Give them money, we will make a hot meal, and then wait here for you to find the carriage." ”

Childe is really considerate, fragrant and envious of Xiao Chu and Lotus, on the boat she expressed envy or fake, feeling that when a girl is enslaved, now I think it's really good to follow a master like Chu Gongzi, and he can think of it if the girls don't walk much.

Chu Huaixian felt that it was not like a group of people to go on the road like this, so he hired two carriages to sit together, which was comfortable and convenient. Jin Xi'er came back after a while: "I told the owner of the house that I would take my sisters to eat here, and I would go ahead to find the car." ”

, The owner and his wife are very honest, and they have said that they are washing their hands and washing the dishes, cleaning up and cooking. Lotus has not done this work for a long time, and her hands are a little itchy: "I'll help wash the vegetables," the hostess looked at the silk skirt and brocade jacket on her body, and didn't dare to let the lotus wash the vegetables: "The water is cold, and the clothes are wet." Lotus thought about it, and borrowed an old dress from the hostess to put on it to help light the fire.

Xiao Chu took out the tea bowl of the son in the small baggage, and asked the master for hot water, first ask the sons to clean their faces, and then everyone. When I went to the kitchen to see if the dishes were not good, I came over and said: "It's wheat rice, and there are only side dishes, I'm afraid that the sons won't be used to it." They have chickens, so I'll buy two of them and cook them for the sons to make porridge. ”

"Okay, you go and help clean up." Chu Huaixian took out the silver and gave it to Xiao Chu, and said, "You can keep the rest, and then buy it yourself." ”

Liang Longzheng also felt satisfied: "She will wait now." ”

Zhu Niang is pregnant, and she is embarrassed to be fragrant, so she will go outside to see everything, so she will help the lotus flower make a fire. In fact, he was standing next to him and talking to the lotus until the rice was cooked.

Xiao Chu asked the owner of the house to buy two roosters, wrapped them in wet mud to make them called chickens, and put them in the stove, and waited until the rice was cooked. When the fire in the stove is extinguished, two large mud balls are pulled out with a burning stick, and Xiaoyi can also look at it intently. Seeing the dry mud knocked off outside, Xiao Chu took a few clean handkerchiefs to pad his hands, and then peeled off the chicken feathers and chicken skin inside, and the chicken was white and tender and rich, cut into two plates, and brought up the wheat rice for the sons to use first.

The hostess watched them wash their hands and serve food in the kitchen, and whispered with a smile: "I don't love anything else, I love you to act, and I am not an ordinary person." Xiao Chu Lotus smiled at her.

"Sit down, too, and don't be careful outside." As soon as Chu Huaixian's chicken hit the chopsticks, Liang Long was already biting a piece, and immediately sucked his mouth and said, "It's hot, it's hot," and he couldn't bear to lose it, so he simply put down the chopsticks and pinched the chicken with his hand and ate it, causing a lot of laughter.

Chu Huaixian used a lot, put down the chopsticks and said: "This meal is good, no worse than the one at home." Lin Xiaochu couldn't help but bow his head and smile, there is always rough ordinary wheat rice, side dishes of capers, pickled radish, all of which are common meals eaten by farmers. Chu Huaixian saw her laughing, knew that he was laughing at himself, and joked with her: "Don't laugh, I like to eat, so you have to do it every day when you are annoyed." Then he laughed himself: "I don't know what you are just laughing at when you eat." ”

Xiao Chu, who was holding the bowl in his hand, raised his head and smiled: "Childe likes to eat, I will make it for you every day." "The lotus is also eating chicken, and I think it tastes so delicious. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the fragrance and his eyes were red again, and the lotus only ate his own food. That is, Lin Xiaochu, talking like this with Gongzi, what kind of envy is this.
