Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

The earliest, by the Spring and Autumn Wu State for the Qi State and excavated, later the Sui Dynasty greatly expanded and penetrated to the capital Luoyang and Lianzhuo County, the Yuan Dynasty abandoned Luoyang and took until Beijing when the Yuan Dynasty renovated.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty set the capital of Beijing, and it was extremely convenient to take advantage of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to lead to Nanjing.

Ye Jun simply gave up riding a horse and went south by boat.

I have to admire that the shipbuilding technology of the Ming Dynasty is indeed extraordinary.

Although the sea was blocked, the shipbuilding technology was still good, and the ships were full of sails and ran on the river, and the speed was not weaker than that of a galloping horse.

The butcher's knife conference has not started so early. I have to wait for heroes from all walks of life, and all the gates are sent together, and it is estimated that it will not be able to open for half a month.

Ye Jun is not in a hurry for the time being, he is in a good boat and enjoys the scenery all the way, which is very pleasant.

For a long time, he had been cultivating hard, but he had not lived such a peaceful life for a long time.

Looking at the willows on both sides of the river, the breeze blowing, the waves are sparkling, and from time to time there are fish out of the water, Ye Jun's mood gradually relaxed, and in his heart, the impatience born because of the bottleneck gradually subsided.

So, a few days later, the ship was already on its way to the south.

On this day, night fell, and the ships gradually approached.

"Ye Gongzi, it's time to Jiangdu!" A voice reminded.

It was the boat family, and along the way, Ye Jun only said that his surname was Ye, and everyone called him Ye Gongzi.

Jiangdu? Ye Jun was slightly puzzled.

Seeing this, the boatman laughed and said, "Ahead, it's the famous Yangzhou City!" ”

Yangzhou has been prosperous since ancient times.

It is the place where the grain of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal must pass, and the north and south have to pass through this place, which is almost equivalent to the magic capital of later generations.

The flow of people brings a thriving economy.

At this time, Yangzhou is indeed a metropolis, especially the land of fireworks, which is extremely prosperous.

Therefore, the guests of the merchant ships will anchor here and go to Yangzhou City in a chic manner.

This is also why, the boatman speaks, with a little deep meaning.

Ye Jun smiled faintly, he was not interested in this.

"Ye Gongzi really doesn't go? Then we'll go first. I'll come back and tell you what the girl in Yangzhou City is like. ”

The people on the boat giggled and left.

Ye Jun stayed on the boat and simply asked the boatman for a fishing rod.

The breeze blew gently, and the willows on the shore swayed with the wind, like the soft waist of a girl in Yangzhou City.

In the evening, when the fish are eating, there are faint ripples from time to time, and fat carp can be seen poking their heads out of the water.

Fishing on a moonlit night is also quite a taste.

There are many ships coming and going, all of them, stopping at the wharf, and going to Yangzhou City in groups.

Suddenly, in the night, there were a few shouts and curses.

Immediately, several figures, scolding, walked over from the direction of Yangzhou City.

"How are they?" Ye Jun raised his eyebrows slightly.

There were too many boats on the shore, and in the night, the group did not notice Ye Jun's figure, but went to another boat.

"Brother Hu, don't be angry, isn't it just a girl, when we get to Nanjing City, there are so many girls on the flower boat by the Huai River, they are better looking than the girls in Yangzhou!"

"Lao Tzu just can't swallow this breath, Lao Tzu is not without money, dare to fucking look down on Lao Tzu, the next time I meet him, Lao Tzu will break his third leg!" A bald man said coldly.

"Don't say it, He Hu, you're already in trouble today. The man you injured is the cousin of the leader of the Whale Gang. The Giant Whale Gang is extremely powerful and domineering, and I am afraid that they will not give up. Let's leave at night! A rough voice said.

"Tiezhu, why are you getting more and more timid. What is there to be afraid of the Whale Gang? If it weren't for Mo Yanda's resignation, Lao Tzu would have twisted that bastard's dog head on the spot! ”

"Why don't you say that Brother Ye is here, and help you destroy the Giant Whale Gang?" Tie Zhu sneered and said, "After the loss of the last desert, why haven't you grown a little?" There are too many people in the world that we can't afford to mess with......"

"I can't mess with that, I can't mess with that. After taking this boat dart, it's a big deal for Lao Tzu to go back to his hometown! ”

After being told, He Hu knew that he was too reckless tonight, and began to pull the anchor and prepare to set sail.

It turned out to be Tiezhu and He Hu and his party.

At the beginning, after the two sides separated in the desert, Ye Jun brought the Yang family sisters and brothers to the capital, and the others dispersed, but they didn't expect to meet here.

Ye Jun was about to step forward to say hello, when suddenly a cold glint flashed in the corner of his eyes.

On the river, I don't know when, there are a few more clippers.

This kind of fast ship is small in size and cannot load goods, but the speed is extremely fast, and there are few such fast ships in ordinary caravans, but when Ye Jun returned to Yunzhuang in Taihu Lake, he saw that the water thieves there used this kind of boat.

Quite a speed that comes and goes without a trace.

At this time, several clippers suddenly appeared, and it seemed that they were heading straight for Tiezhu and He Hu's boats, obviously because they were not good.

Seeing this, the boatmen on the water exclaimed.

"The Giant Whale Gang is doing errands, and the idlers are waiting to get out of the way!"

Above the clipper, an arrogant voice was heard.

Immediately, several clippers surrounded Tiezhu's merchant ships.

"Damn, these bastards are coming so fast!" He Hu snorted and scolded.

Tie Zhu's face also sank suddenly, after they knew that the person they offended was the Giant Whale Gang, they immediately rushed back, but they didn't expect to be blocked by the other party.

Tonight, I'm afraid it's hard to be good.

He Hu took out the ring knife and slapped it on his bare head, looking quite annoyed, and said, "Today is my He Hu who has caused everyone." Wait, if you have the chance, you can run. The whales won't recognize you! ”

"Brother He Hu, what are you talking about? For so long, we have been born and died, how can we run? Even if you can't beat them, kill a few of them to make a profit! Someone said coldly.

They are all brothers who depend on each other for life and death, and they live a life of licking blood from the knife edge, and they have long been mentally prepared for today's situation.

Bang!

The clipper collided, and a few iron anchors flew out, firmly buckling the splint of the merchant ship, and now, the merchant ship couldn't go if it wanted to, unless, Tiezhu and the others dived, but how could their water nature be comparable to these members of the Giant Whale Gang who lived in the water all year round?

There is only one way to go.

"Kill!"

He Hu had already taken the lead and rushed out.

With a sword in his hand, he directly chopped off the head of the guy who jumped on the merchant ship first.

Nearby, the others also fought.

I have to say that Tie Zhu and He Hu, who are perennial men who lick blood from the knife edge, dare to fight and kill.

Although the number of the Giant Whale Gang has doubled, they can't take it for a while, and there is even a faint feeling that they are going to be repulsed.

At this time, on one of the clippers, stood a young man with a white bandage on his head.

This person is Li Shenzhou, the son of Li Tianhao, the uncle of Li Zhengkai, the leader of the Giant Whale Gang.

Li Shenzhou's eyes were gloomy, and he glared at He Hu viciously, and then lowered his head and said to a man in black beside him: "Liu Shengjun, please also ask your subordinates to take action!" ”

"Li Sang, your subordinates are really a bunch of rubbish!"

The man in black was wrapped in black, and he didn't show his face, only a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

I saw that the night trembled slightly, and black figures appeared out of nowhere, and immediately rushed to the battlefield, and halfway, one after another suddenly disappeared.
