Wen Xiuyi was happy at first.

"It's good that it's far away, and the fire can't burn us."

How to dock the boat back, her own boatman to get busy, so she went back to the house.

There was a mess on the other side of the dock, and it seemed that the fire was spreading, and even the nearby warehouses were on fire.

Shi Qing looked at it for a while and felt that something was not quite right.

The fire spread too quickly.

Thinking like this, the Gu worms on his body seemed to sense something......

"Click!" The sound of broken porcelain sounded, and Shi Qing's premonition came true.

Small porcelain vases shattered on the ship's board, and the smell of fire oil permeated.

Shi Qing pressed his hand on the handle of the knife and glared into the water: "Who?" ”

In response, he was greeted by a short arrow, only to hear a "boom", and the short arrow hit the wind lamp in the bow of the ship.

The flames splashed down, and with a bang, the ship's planks caught fire.

Then the fog rose everywhere, and the sound from the dock, which was not far away, seemed to be distorted, vague, and inaudible.

Until now, how can Shi Qing still not understand?

He sneered and walked over with his knife.

I really don't know whether I live or die, and I dare to fight their idea.

Wen Xiuyi also opened the door and came out, shouting, "Where is the thief?" Get out of here! ”

There was a sound in the water, but it was an arrow.

I only heard the sound of snatching and snatching, and the boatmen hugged their heads and screamed.

Wen Xiuyi gritted her teeth with hatred, in order to hide her identity along the way, she used ordinary boatmen, and she didn't know martial arts. Otherwise, why should these thieves do it herself?

"Aqing! You stand back. ”

Shi Qing paused and obeyed her instructions.

Wen Xiuyi took out a porcelain vase, opened it and sprinkled it forward, something was blown into the river by the night breeze.

Then she took out the piccolo and blew it.

"Woo ......"

Amid the sound of piccolo, something silently floated up from the bottom of the river.

"Ahh There are snakes! A scream rang out.

"Whoa! Crash! "All the thieves who were hiding in the water floated.

"There's that too!"

"Get on board!"

Seeing these people who jumped on the boat, Wen Xiuyi sneered: "Sure enough, it's you!" I just let you go, but I don't know how to come to find death! ”

These Jianghu people didn't expect that they would look away, and the other party was not a powerless daughter, but after the matter has reached this point, can they still retreat? Even if they know martial arts, what about them? Which of those big families does not have a home, and it is indispensable to do it. Just kill them!

When the fire on the dock burned, Ji Xiaowu was woken up by Mingwei.

"Huh? Cousin? "He slept in a daze.

"It's time to get to work." Ming whispered.

Ji Xiaowu was a spirit, and suddenly remembered that they were going to run away tonight!

"Is anyone coming?" He asked.

Ming Wei said: "There is a fire outside, it should be that they did it." ”

Ji Xiaowu looked at the hatch and doubted: "Are you sure?" Wasn't it an accidental fire? ”

Mingwei is very sure: "These Jianghu people, they are all like this. Make a mess first, so it's easy to get started. Next, push the boat away, one makes it too late for others to rescue, and the other is that the dock is in a mess and no one cares about this side. ”

Ji Xiaowu will be skeptical.

He soon knew if Mingwei was right.

The boatman went to hold the pole, only to find that the cable was loose and they floated out.

At the docks, the fire was even bigger, and all those people went to put out the fire.

"Cousin, what you said seems to be right. Now our ship has become an island. ”

"Hmm."

"When are we leaving?"

"They'll talk about it."

Waiting for the fire to burn, Ming Wei said, "Let's go out!" ”

Usually they can't get out of the cabin easily, but now that it's on fire, if they don't let them out, will they be burned to death?

Sure enough, they took advantage of the chaos to get out of the cabin, and the boatmen didn't take care of it.

Immediately afterwards, those Jianghu people jumped on the boat and started with Wen Xiuyi.

And the fire spread almost the entire ship, and the boatmen were busy fighting the fire in a mess.

"Jump!" Ming Wei Dao.

Ji Xiaowu hesitated: "They just said that there are snakes in the water." ”

Mingwei didn't bother to explain to him, and pushed hard, and with a "plop", Ji Xiaowu fell.

Because the fire was so strong, several of the boatmen who were on fire jumped into the water and did not pay attention to them.

Only Shi Qing glanced over here, feeling a little wrong, but he couldn't care about it for a while.

Mingwei jumped down after him, dragging Ji Xiaowu into the water.

Ji Xiaowu opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but she covered her mouth and nose, and then remembered that she was in the water, didn't this mouth choke?

So he held his breath and swam forward cautiously.

Strangely, there were no water snakes to entangle them.

It wasn't until he swam out of the fog and drifted down the water for a long time, away from the boat, that he remembered and asked, "Didn't you say there were snakes?" ”

Ming glanced at it, and the little white snake swam out of her sleeve, climbed on top of Ji Xiaowu's head, and hissed and spat snake letters on it.

"With it, what snake dares to approach us?"

"I see!" Ji Xiaowu breathed a sigh of relief, "Are we out of danger?" ”

"It's not close." She looked at the little white snake.

The little white snake lowered its head, licked her hand, and suddenly opened its mouth and bit it.

"What is this for?" Ji Xiaowu was shocked.

Mingwei waited for the little white snake to finish sucking things up before saying, "Suck out the Gu from us, cousin, your hands." ”

"Oh." Ji Xiaowu obediently sent it to the little white snake.

The little white snake was concocted in the same way.

"Alright, let's go ashore first!"

It's still March, and I'm freezing to death in the water.

At this time, a small boat came by.

The people on the boat spotted them and shouted, "Someone has fallen overboard, save them!" ”

So the two of them were pulled onto the boat with a bewildered expression.

They were rescued by a kind-faced old man and a few strong men.

The old man was dressed decently, but his temperament was more like that of a housekeeper.

He asked, "Did you two float over from the docks?" ”

Ji Xiaowu thanked the other party and replied, "Exactly." The dock caught fire, and Late Life and his cousin accidentally fell off the boat and drifted here without paying attention. ”

"I see." The old man turned around and pointed, "The master's boat is in front, why don't you two go back with me and change your clothes first?" It's so cold, I'm afraid I'll get sick if I've been freezing for a long time. ”

Ji Xiaowu glanced at Mingwei and saw that she didn't object, so he responded: "So, thank you." ”

The boat turned around and headed back, and after a while, it entered a private harbor.

There was a big ship parked there.

The old man asked them to get off the boat, led them into the house, and told the servant and the maid: "Boil some hot water, and take clothes for the guests to change." ”

"Yes."

When Mingwei and Ji Xiaowu followed them in, the old man followed another road and entered a courtyard.

The hall was brightly lit, and in the center sat an old lady with gray hair.

When the maid saw that it was him, she entered the house and reported: "Steward Ji is here." ”

Steward Ji entered the salute and said, "Old lady, it is true that the dock is on fire, and the little one rescued two people." ”
