Chapter 289: The Net of the Ge River
Volume 1 Bully Me, Insult Me, I Can't Bear Chapter 289 The Net of the Ge River
The night water is not quiet, and we insist on trying to flow forward. The sound of whooshing, soft, rhythmic. Listen to your ears, and your heart is still.
Under the moonless night sky, this is a remote body of water, wilderness on both sides.
Four days later, it will be Chinese New Year's Eve, and even the boatman who has no relatives and no reason will not celebrate the New Year on such a wild river.
But, there are boats on the river.
A lantern is hung at the bow and stern of the boat. From a distance, it is not much brighter than the tail of a firefly. If you look closely, the head and tail lights are quite far away, and it is clearly a cargo ship with a tǐng size.
On such a large ship, no human voices are heard, and no one is seen. The dark sail and the night are the same as sè. How can you say it's not weird?
But even weirder is at the back, at the back of the ship. About a mile or two from it, there was a handful of trees, moving along the edge with the current. The faster the cargo ship, the faster the tree drifts. When the cargo ship is slow, the tree is slow.
The cargo ship had been very careful in its tracks, and it was impossible to imagine that the tree was just a disguise, but in fact there were several pairs of eyes behind the branches, staring at it with no apparentness.
The true body under the shadow of the tree is called Yongfu. From the mast to the hull, camouflaged, in such a night, without binoculars, without equipment such as night vision heat source searchlight, the hiding is almost perfect, not even a shadow exists.
The wind blew cold purple cheeks, and she had been standing in the bucket for half an hour. When he saw the lantern of the cargo ship in front of him turn and disappear in a large area of reeds, he remembered the direction, quickly turned out of the barrel, and climbed down with dexterity, landing on his feet without making a sound at all. Because she didn't wear shoes.
"Brother Mo, is there any movement? 、,The sound of the stinky fish is very low。
"I went into the reeds, and most of them were there. Half a mile further, drop the sails, switch to belly oars, and let's follow up. After Mo Zi finished speaking, he put on his shoes, lifted the boat board at his feet, and jumped down.
mō to the door, pushed it open, and there was a light. The lights in the bilge of the boat are lit, and they naturally do not come out.
Hua Yi and a number of Qianniuwei were recuperating on the side, and when they heard the movement, their eyes immediately shot, and when they saw that it was Mo Zi, they turned their heads.
On the other side, he praised the Ding dog, one holding a sword and the other sleeping.
Yuan Cheng baked the fire with both hands. The flames jumped, coating his gentle facial features with a layer of gorgeousness, and his eyes were golden. The edge of the black robe seemed to be embroidered with flame patterns, prostrate under his feet, making him even more noble. But his movements were very calm, he poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Mo Zi.
"Yuan Cheng, Hongtu's boat has entered the reeds, and I have asked the stinky fish to follow them. But what's next? Mo Zi held it in both hands and breathed out comfortably.
Yuan Cheng looked at the map on the table, "This is near Ge Village, right?" "Gecun, a hundred miles away from Shangdu, and another forty miles up Hongtu.
Mo Zi nodded and said, "Forty miles, walking for nearly four hours, slower than a turtle." ”
Why did the Yongfu secretly follow Hongtu's ship?
A few months ago, when Mo Zi went to Hongtu to get wood, he found some hollow wood in it, so he told Yuan Cheng about it. Since then, Yuan Cheng has sent people to keep an eye on Hongtu. Recently, Zeng Hai, who was difficult to get to the shipyard, actually stayed for a few days in a row, and the guard was stricter than before, Yuan Cheng guessed that they had something to do, so he borrowed the Yongfu from Mo Zi. Sure enough, in the afternoon of this day, Zeng Hai personally boarded the new cargo ship and set off for the upper reaches of the Yajiang River. After nightfall, quietly turn into the Ge River.
As for Yuan Cheng's refusal to ask the court for the transfer of official ships, he was afraid of startling the snake, and this matter was not within his jurisdiction, so he planned to cut it first and then play it in order to grab the credit in front of the emperor.
Grabbing merit is naturally greedy.
What reward?
Haven't figured it out yet. I don't know yet. Take a step and look again.
In short, calling the Yongfu for help is definitely much more reassuring and confident than calling the official ship. Even the general's main ship can be pierced, and those high-flying warships really look like paper tigers.
"There's something in the hollow wood, and of course it's slow." Yuan Cheng waited for Mo Zi to warm up, and pointed to the map to show her, "Ge Village is uninhabited for ten miles, they choose to land here, and they must connect with people."
Tell your people to be careful and don't be discovered. ”
"It's not just stuff, it's a heavy stuff.
"What it is, I've already guessed it, you have to see it with your own eyes" Don't worry, the Yongfu has been modified again. Where Hongtu cargo ships can enter, the Yongfu can be completely silent. Under the nose, the other party may not be able to find out. The last sentence is an exaggeration.
Tuk tuk knock at the door.
The stinky fish poked its head in, "Brother Mo, it's in, the boat seems to be docked." ”
Mo Zixing rushed and was about to go up to see.
Yuan Cheng didn't look scared at all, and said with a smile, "Brother Mo is really chic on the water, he is not afraid of the sky and the earth." ”
Mo Zi turned around and pulled him together, "If the water can flow, I won't hit a dead end, how can I not be chic?" Zeng Hai always looked at me unpleasantly, and I made him unpleasant. I might catch him now, and I'll almost clap my hands. ”
One by one, they went up to the deck of the ship and prostrated themselves in the dark.
Yuan Cheng listened quietly, the Yongfu moved by the sound of the wind and the water, and when he was on the boat, he couldn't hear the oars to clear the water, but the docked boat not far away was crunching and noisy.
"No oars and no sails, the boat can move?" He just heard her say that it was a countercurrent.
"There are underwater paddles, and the fat shrimp are shaking with people. Lao Guan and the water snake are at the helm. Mo Zi explained slightly, turned his head and gently called Zanjin and the stinky fish. She doesn't call the dog unless he realizes it.
"Can you two hear what they're saying?"
The two listened for a moment, and at the same time shook their heads, "Too far." ”
Yuan Cheng looked at Huayi.
Yi shook his head.
"Stinky fish, tell Lao Guan and them to come closer." As soon as Mo Zi finished saying this, a torch lit up on Hongtu's side, and he couldn't get any closer.
"What should I do?" The shadow is invisible, she is confident, but not arrogant.
Yuan Cheng's judgment was very fast, "Mo Zi, let the Yongfu dock without being discovered by them, is it okay?" Mo Zi immediately understood that he was going ashore. Although the boat could not get closer, the shore was overgrown with weeds and it was easy to hide people. Although she and Yuan Cheng have known each other for a long time, it is the first time they have acted like this together. I thought his cleverness was in scheming, but I didn't expect that the practical application was not weak.
Yongfu quietly docked.
"You stay on board." Two voices, exactly the same words.
"Without me, who is an official, you catch a thief, and the thief will not recognize it. If you do something dangerous, you will get hurt, so it's better to stay on board. Yuan Cheng said.
"Without me, a shipbuilder, you caught the thief, and the thief shouted wronged.
I see that you have always avoided the scene of fighting, and there is a ninety percent chance that the umbrella will start late, so you should stay. Mo Zi said.
watched the two dismantle each other, and Hua Yi, who had the second highest status, said "Go ashore together." In the end, only Lao Guan and a few boatmen who rowed were left. Everyone walked without grass and lay down in the closest place to the Hongtu cargo ship.
The cargo ship got off the sampan, and a few people came down early, led by Zeng Hai and Wang Da. For Mo Zi and Yuan Cheng, this distance was not enough to hear anything. But Hua Yi praised their good kung fu, and it seemed to sound fine.
Zeng Hai was a little anxious. They probably said yes, but the man didn't show up, and he was there cursing. "Zanjin is on the left side of Mo Zi.
Ding Gou was cold, on her right, "Another person said that the boat gang is trustworthy and should come soon." Who said that the boat gang must be trustworthy? The last question was his own opinion.
Boat gang? Didn't you come to see the big man? Mo Zi was slightly stunned, this was not quite what he imagined.
"Listen, is it a gang that walks sī goods?" She asked left and right.
Zanjin waited for a while before saying, "They won't talk about it." ”
Zeng Hai is waiting, and Mo Zi is also waiting.
About half an hour later, Zeng Hai seemed impatient, said a word to the king, turned around and walked on the sampan.
Mo Zi immediately went to look at Yuan Cheng and saw that he was whispering to Ding Gou, and then Ding Gou raised his eyebrows and shrugged his shoulders.
At this time, Zanjin was used as a microphone, "Zeng Hai said, don't wait, the stinky gang cheated him of the money, and he wanted to get it back." ”
As soon as Mo Zi finished listening, Yuan Cheng Huayi and the others bent up from the grass and walked out.
"Boss Zeng." Huayi also took the initiative to greet people.
Mo Zi was stunned for a moment, not understanding Yuan Cheng's plan. The other party hasn't come yet, isn't this a scare? And it is not certain that the hollow wood must be iron or weapons. A villain like Zeng Hai who is greedy for cheapness may just be a sī goods. He hasn't left the country yet, and he can't press a single crime.
She subconsciously wanted to stand up, but let Ding Gou hold it down, and was squinted and despised by him, which means that whoever moves is an idiot.
Although Ding Gou is arrogant, although he admires Taoist inaction, and often sneers at her, but in this case, she believes that there will be no distinction between priority and priority. So he told her not to move, and she didn't.
Soon, she also figured it out herself, Zeng Hai and Wang Dashi both regarded her as a thorn in their side, how could they be open-minded?
She didn't move, and Zanjin Stinky Fish and the others didn't move.
Of course, not moving does not mean not knowing. Because, the firelight is near, and the people are also close, and I can hear the secret words of the king asking Huayi.
Mo Zi thought that this lù stuffing was undoubted, it would not be the king of heaven and the tiger, the river demon of Pagoda Town, right?
"The sun rises in Huashan, and the cat leads the Quartet." Hua Yi replied, and there was no delay.
Mo Zi knows these eight words. Chen Er and the chief rudder used this when dealing with code words.
Huayi is casually blind? Why these eight words? Zeng Hai only said about the boat gang, and did not mention Chen Er. What the hell did he think? Or rather, what did Yuan Cheng think.
She believed that the silent Hua Yi just opened his mouth, and his brain was Yuan Cheng behind him.
In the middle of the night, Wang Dazhang complained, "Why is it so late?" "Actually, that's right!
"I'm sorry, there are some urgent matters in the gang, the second master can't leave, and the temporary arrangement is for Xiao Ke to come, and it will be late in a hurry." Huayi seems to be giving up.
Hua Yi was dressed in a black suit, and Qian Niuwei behind him was even darker and stronger, and he also méng, pretending to be a boat gang, and when the other party was impatient, he could get over.
"Why are your men méng?" Zeng Hai's voice was closer, accompanied by the firelight.
"Boss Zeng's entrustment of our second master is not a sight to behold, so it's better to be just in case." Ambiguous statement, but Huayi has no méng face, in order to set the other party's heart. Then as soon as he moved forward, Yuan Cheng, who followed behind him, also moved forward.
The light of the fire began to fade away again, and the footsteps went to the other side of the ship.
At this time, Ding Gou tugged Mo Zi and said, "Keep up." "Yuan Cheng is under the shadow of Huayi, and Mo Zi's people are under the shadow of Yuan Cheng's people, which is called bold opportunism.
Zeng Hai and Wang Dazhang, who were at the forefront, did not know what was going on, and the nets that caught them were opened, and the spider stings were hidden behind, waiting for a full meal.
