Chapter 16 Boating on the Red Cliff The East is white
At dawn, on the river more than 100 miles south of Luzhou City, a giant boat broke through the dense fog, like a dragon leaning out of the clouds.
This giant boat is about 278 zhang long, 5 or 6 zhang high, carved beams and painted buildings, the momentum is extraordinary, and it is absolutely not owned by ordinary gentry at a glance.
The giant ship was going upriver from south to north, and it seemed that it was about to reach its destination, and the huge bow had deviated from the course of the center of the river and headed for the shore on the west side of the river.
The east had just revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly, and on the highest deck of the giant ship, two gold-inlaid Tiannan wood relief doors suddenly opened, and two young men, a man and a woman, walked out of the cabin.
The woman was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was extremely pretty. She was dressed in a goose-yellow single coat, stretching her big lazy waist, revealing a thrilling white skin on her willow-like thin waist. Looking at the scenery on the bank of the river, she excitedly asked the man next to her, "Brother Qianhuang, is this Chibi?"
The man beside him was a little older, about eighteen or nineteen years old, the river breeze was blowing, and his clothes were fluttering, looking extraordinary.
He turned his head to look at the girl next to him, and said dotingly: "We should have entered the range of Chibi last night, and now looking at the course of this ship's bow, it is estimated that it will be time to reach Jiayu Wharf soon." Yi Ning, the river breeze is cold in the morning, you go back and put on some clothes, don't catch a cold. After abandoning the boat for a while, the journey was not as comfortable as it had been a few days before. ”
The woman covered her ears and pursed her mouth, "Don't listen, don't listen, Brother Qianhuang, you're starting to ramble again." Now, if I don't take a good look at this red cliff scenery, I won't have a chance to wait for the ship to dock for a while. When we come back, we have to go to the line of the Forget the Worry River and the Rain River, and we don't know what year and month we will come back if we don't pass through this red cliff. Besides, I'm already at the peak of my bones, how can I still catch a cold. ”
With that, the woman ran to the end of the deck, stood on tiptoe, her eyes seemed to pierce the mist, and tried to look towards the riverbank.
The big river beach in front of you is an endless dark red. Countless large and small dark red stones and gravel, like the blood of a coagulated river, spread all over the riverbank.
From the southern foot of the Yudai Mountain Range to the south of more than 1,000 miles on both sides of the river, is the main battlefield of the bloody battle between the two races of man and demon for 10,000 years, the legend is that the stones on the river beach are soaked in the blood of countless warriors of the human and demon races, showing a shocking dark red *** clan called Danxin Rock, and the human race is called Chibi.
These two dark reds occupy the entire field of vision in front of you except for the river, and against the background of the white shimmer in the early morning, it looks even more solemn and vicissitudes. But the girl obviously did not have this consciousness and feeling, and leaned on the railing with her hands, shouting and screaming, and looking very energetic. The man known as "Brother Qianhuang" had no choice but to follow closely behind, for fear that something would happen to him.
Suddenly, the girl pointed to the river bank in the distance and shouted at the man beside her: "Brother Emperor Qian, Brother Emperor Qian, you see, there seems to be a person lying over there!"
......
......
The man lying in the cabin was not very old, with a delicate face and closed eyes. A pair of sword eyebrows, looking heroic. But I don't know if it's because I've been soaked in water for too long, and my already fair skin has no blood color, showing a sickly paleness. He wore a dark tunic with dozens of vertical and horizontal lacerations, most of which looked like sharp blades, while others looked like they had been torn apart by stones.
Strangely, the young man's shirt had many marks left by sharp blades, but there was not a single wound on his body, as if all the tears in his clothes had been cut by a child's mischief.
But if you look closely, you can find that there are still residual blood stains in some places of his clothes, but it is not very obvious because he has been soaked in the river water for too long.
On the back of the young man, there is an obvious palm wound, the wound has shown a shocking dark purple, and the bones at the palm print are also broken in many places, obviously the martial arts cultivation of the person who started it is not low. Perhaps it was this palm that hurt the viscera that kept the boy unconscious.
On the index finger of the young man's left hand, he wore an ordinary copper ring, and there was nothing else, nothing else that could be seen as his identity.
This unconscious teenager is naturally Shi Zhiyi, who was hit into the bottom of the water by Da Xi Wenhuan with a palm.
"The third prince, the lord of Ningjun, please take a step to speak. ”
It was an old man who spoke, with three long beards, quite a bit of fairy bones, carrying a medicine box in his hand, and a shallow smell of herbs on his body that he couldn't tell what it was, as if he was a doctor.
And the other two men and women standing next to the young man were watching the scenery on the deck of the giant boat and found Shi Zhiyi. Listening to the old man's name, it seems that the identities of the two are also extremely noble!
The three of them came to the cabin where Shi Zhiyi was, and reflexively closed the hatch, and the old man said to the two of them: "The injuries on this young man's body, as seen by the two highnesses, are not fatal except for a palm in the back. The skin on several parts of his body seems to have been reborn shortly after being injured, which is probably the result of a past fight, not the cause of the fall. ”
"Judging by his face, he is no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, and judging from the shape of his muscles and bones, he should have entered the realm of marrow washing, and at least in the middle of marrow washing. Therefore, the old man deduced that he should be from an extraordinary background. But the palm he received on his back was extremely heavy, his muscles and bones were broken, and his organs were injured, and he should have no worries about his life after the conditioning just now, but it is not good to say when he will wake up. ”
After Shi Zhiyi first entered the dawn, he fought fiercely with Sun Weiqing for a long time, and carried a heavy burden like an iron tower to escape from the cave space, and then was hit by Da Xi Wenhuan with a palm and drifted for half a night, his true yuan had already run out of oil, and the meridians were empty, so the old man did not perceive his true realm - not to mention that in terms of the age shown by his face, the middle stage of the marrow washing was already quite remarkable, and the old man had not thought about it in other directions at all.
When the third prince heard this, he nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Liu, you go and pack your luggage first, and I will discuss it with my sister before making a decision." ”
After the old man left, the girl who was known as the county lord of Yining frowned and said, "Brother Qianhuang, the boat has docked at Jiayu Wharf, and we are about to take the car west, should we take this person with us or send him elsewhere?"
"I'm thinking about it as well. Although Dr. Liu said that he was not worried about his life, he still needed careful recuperation to get out of danger. From this point of view, he traveled west with us, and if there was any change on the way, it would be best for Dr. Liu to rescue him immediately. However, the journey to the west took at least ten days, and the road was bumpy, and ordinary people would still be tired, and I was worried that he would be seriously injured and unbearable. ”
The county lord of Yi Ning suddenly said excitedly: "I have thought of a good way, we can leave Doctor Liu on the ship with him, or let them go north to Luzhou City, contact the city lord of Daxi and ask him to find a place to recuperate, and then make peace with them when we come back, how about it?"
"This is a good idea, but this brother Tai is seriously injured and goes down the river from the north, and the person who hurts him will be in the north and has cultivated extraordinary, and we have no clue about it, if we send him to the north rashly, it will kill him if it is not done well. ”
Shi Zhiyi, who was lying in the cabin at this time, didn't know that he had turned around on the ghost gate, if the two brothers and sisters really sent him to Luzhou City and handed him over to Da Xi Wenhuan, even if the Da Xi City Lord at this moment offended the three princes, he would definitely chop the culprit who stole his painting boat and caused him to suffer that strange humiliation.
