Chapter 9: Pretend to be a couple
After half a day's travel, we arrived at the foot of a green mountain.
Here is a branch vein of the Iron Tablet Ridge, the strange stones stand in a forest, the mountains are stacked and green, all kinds of cliffs, dangerous shoals, huge reefs, karst caves and pits are there, very majestic.
The sound of ape whistles could be heard from both sides of the river, and the boatmen were very careful when they arrived here, fearing that the ship would be hit by the reef.
Bai Luoluo stood on the side of the boat and looked at the two shores, and couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature, Gu Xuan stood behind her, and said with a smile: "Silver Valley is also very beautiful, if there is a chance in the future, the white girl might as well let Gu do his best to be a landlord." ”
Bai Luoluo smiled: "Okay, I heard that the Lord of the Silver Valley is a master of the world, if you can see it, it will also be a great opportunity." ”
The big boat suddenly stopped, and several young people in the company ran to the stern, Bai Luoluo asked curiously: "What are they doing?" ”
Gu Xuan said: "Go and release the boat." ”
At this point, the big boat could not pass, and if you wanted to see the secret passage, you had to pass through a dangerous shoal, and you could only take a small boat.
Gu Xuan went to help, and Bai Luoluo also wanted to join in the fun, but a group of young men all drove her away: "How can you let a girl do it?" ”
She had to hold her hands and watch them put the boat down with ease, and the first boat was a few wild geese who were proficient in water to explore the way.
On the second boat, Dong Yu and He Lingyi sat on it, and everyone called Bai Luoluo: "The white girl also sits on this boat, and we will break off." ”
Bai Luoluo bit his lip lightly, not wanting to go up.
He Lingyi sat on the side of the boat, his green robe was hunting, his hair was a little messy, and his slightly squinted eyes seemed to have emerald color, he stared at the mountain peaks in the distance, and did not look at her.
It's as if, she's just an inconsequential person, it doesn't matter if you come up or not.
Dong Yu couldn't look at it: "Luo Luo, come and sit here." ”
Isn't it just a boat ride? Bai Luoluo gritted her teeth, stepped forward and sat next to Dong Yu, diagonally opposite He Lingyi, she was not afraid of him looking, anyway, she was wearing a curtain hat, she could look at him, but he couldn't see her.
I only heard He Lingyi say again: "Xiao Gu, you come too." ”
Gu Xuan nodded calmly, sat down opposite Bai Luoluo, and smiled softly at her.
He Lingyi glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw the noon sun coming from top to bottom, showing Gu Xuan's youth and beauty to the fullest.
He sighed, good boy.
Bai Luoluo forced himself not to look at He Lingyi, and kept looking for words to say to Dong Yu: "Let's come here with such a swagger, won't it get in the way?" ”
Dong Yu smiled: "Of course it's in the way, but this area is rich in a rare fish, which is worth a thousand gold, and the scenery is beautiful, so many people will come here to fish, or enjoy the scenery and buy fish." ”
The members of the Wild Goose Gang are fishermen who disguise themselves as local fishermen and often wander around these places for the purpose of surveillance.
Wei Zizhao tried her best to keep this secret passage secret, she didn't want the Dongling people and the Li Guo people to know, even He Lingyi and Li Shang were secret.
But in the later period, she secretly entered and exited the secret passage, participated in setting traps to attack Chonghua, and there were hundreds of warriors in and out, and the movement was quite big, and she couldn't hide it from the people of Dongling.
If Lee hadn't died, the secret wouldn't have been kept. But now that Li Shang is dead, no one cares about this secret passage.
The reasons for this are very complicated, there is Li Shang's retaliation by the remnants of the party, deliberately concealing and not reporting, and Dongling's internal and external difficulties, the current emperor is going to die or not, the prince is young, and the front is endless, and the reason why I can't take care of it is in it.
In short, it was to let Dong Yu and others pick up a big bargain.
As the boat entered the shoal, a row of bamboo rafts rowed out from behind the reef, and two fishermen, all in short clothes and shorts, with hats, shouted, "Do you want to buy fish?" ”
One of the wild geese at the head said: "Of course we want to buy it, but we only need two catties and two taels of fish, and we don't want it if it's too big." ”
The fisherman said, "It's hard to find fish of this size, and it's more expensive." ”
The wild goose gang said, "As long as you can find it, you can afford it!" ”
The fisherman led the way: "It just so happens that my brother caught two of them and kept them in the cave in front of them, and the guests came with me." ”
So the bamboo raft went forward, and the boat of Bai Luoluo and the others followed.
Bai Luoluo guessed that this was the connection with the wild goose gang lurking and watching.
Sure enough, after passing through the dangerous shoal, the boat stopped outside a large natural cave.
When I looked into the entrance of the cave, I was greeted by a cold and damp air.
The fishermen on the bamboo raft shouted loudly: "Third, fourth, there are guests who want to buy fish, light up the torches!" ”
Bai Luoluo was very puzzled, they were so blatant, weren't they afraid of being discovered?
Gu Xuan seemed to guess what she was thinking, and explained gently: "The child fish likes to hide in the hole, day and night. Because of its high price, fishermen are afraid that it will die when they catch it, so they will build a dwelling place for it in the cave to ensure that it will be alive and well before it is sold. ”
Therefore, the behavior of the fishermen of the Dayan Gang is very logical, even if they are bumped into by the people of the Dongling Government, they will not easily find the horse's feet.
Bai Luoluo praised sincerely: "The wild goose gang is really amazing. ”
Dong Yu smiled like a trumpet flower, revealing two rows of white teeth: "That's, don't look at who is leading." I have told Your Majesty that we are for the people in peacetime and soldiers in wartime, and the navy is not necessarily more powerful than us. If the Jingzhong dog dares to stick out its head, give it a hard knife and cut off its head! ”
Gu Xuan patted Dong Yu's shoulder vigorously, and Dong Yu looked at him and smiled, full of pride.
Bai Luoluo was infected by this passion: "Count me in! ”
Gu Xuan smiled at her and stretched out a hand, Dong Yu understood and took it heavily, and Bai Luoluo also took it.
Dong Yu yelled at He Lingyi: "How is it? The table needs four feet to be stable, so it's up to you, and you're just looking at it? Or are you going to go back to your old job after going to Jingzhong? ”
He Lingyi hooked the corners of her lips and smiled faintly, and stretched out her hand dispensably.
Bai Luoluo looked nervously at his hand, if he fell, it would be just over the back of her hand, then ...... I feel out of breath inexplicably.
Who knew that He Lingyi's hand did not fall on the back of her hand, but instead reached under Gu Xuan's hand and held up their three hands vigorously.
Dong Yu frowned slightly: "Hey, Lao He, you look down on me." If you are willing to hold up two young people, then forget it, why do you come to support me, who wants you to hold up? ”
He Lingyi said lightly: "It doesn't matter if you don't want me to trust you, I'll trust them." ”
The tone was indescribably serious.
Gu Xuan looked at He Lingyi suspiciously: "Sir, this is ......"
He Lingyi said: "I will take you to Jingzhong, but in order to hide people's eyes, you have to pretend to be husband and wife with Xiaobai." ”
Bai Luoluo looked at He Lingyi's hand in a daze, still white and slender, without any trace of time.
She still remembered the warm feeling when this hand was holding her, tugging her, and carrying her, and at this moment, this hand was about to let go.
