Chapter 8 The mountain and the water ship are in a hurry

The boat moved forward again, and Ai couldn't see Zhan Feipeng chasing after him, so he put away the Red Flame Farewell Knife and sat down on the bow of the boat.

Wu Lian walked up to her side and said, "Sister Ai, you go to the cabin and rest for a while." I'll keep it for you. As he spoke, he raised the bamboo pole in his hand.

Ai Li heard that he no longer called her a heroine and changed to sister, which was a little strange, but it was much more affectionate to call her like this. Thinking of his actions just now, Ai Li suddenly felt that this little monk was actually quite clever. She was used to being a senior sister, and although she was very tired, she still said to him: "You go and rest first, I'm not tired yet." ”

Wu Lian didn't obey and dragged her into the cabin. Ai Li smiled lightly and sat down to rest.

Ai Li closed his eyes in the cabin, remembered the elixir given by Cangshi, took out the porcelain bottle, and took a pill.

After a while, a steady stream of blazing air rose in the dantian, and Ai Li hurriedly concentrated his mind and guided it back to its place. A few weeks later, she opened her eyes again, and her depleted inner breath was full of life. She couldn't help but be secretly amazed: Cangshi's elixir was so magical!

At this time, there was a fresh smell from outside the cabin, and Ai Li walked out to see that it was the captain of the ship who had cooked a pot of thick fish porridge.

This boat boss is the same one Ai Li hired the boat last time, and he is already familiar with Ai Li, and when he saw her coming, he gave her a bowl of fish porridge.

Ai Li was hungry, thanked him, and reached out to take it.

The porridge had just been cooked and was steaming. Ai Li held the bowl and blew it, and just opened his mouth to eat, when he suddenly remembered Wulian. She looked left and right and saw him standing in the corner of the boat looking at her, so she beckoned him to come and eat with him, but Wulian shook her head.

Ai Li then remembered that he was a monk and couldn't eat meat, so he asked the boat boss to make a pot of vegetarian porridge for him.

It was extremely time-consuming to boil porridge, and Wulian squatted next to watch the fire.

Ai Li sat on the side of the boat, blowing hot air and wanted to eat slowly, but found that Wu Lian, who was squatting on the side, secretly glanced at herself from time to time, like a kitten abused by her master, and her eyes were pitiful.

Ai Li couldn't eat anymore, thinking that he was very hungry after tossing all night, and it was impossible for Wulian, a little monk who was growing up, not to be hungry, so he got up and gave him a bowl of fish porridge, and said, "You can have a bowl of mat to pad your hunger first." ”

Wu Lian looked at the fish porridge and swallowed her saliva, and hesitated: "This is not an emergency time, and you can't open the vows." ”

Ai said strangely: "Is it urgent to open the ring?" ”

Wu Lian nodded and said, "The master said that when it comes to life and death, you can't stick to the subtleties. At that time, it is an emergency to open the vows. ”

Ai Li heard what he said solemnly, and asked again: "Then have you ever taken the vows?" ”

Wulian nodded honestly.

Ai said: It turns out that you have opened the vows, then it will be easy to do, once you open it, and a hundred times it is also open. Ai Li's desire to protect is extremely strong, and she can't see the little guy suffering, and the little monk doesn't commit meat or anything, she doesn't take it seriously at all. Thinking that he would have to walk with this little monk for a long time, it was really unbearable to let her eat meat but let him watch from the side all the time, but if he wanted to accompany him to eat vegetarian food, it would be difficult for him to do it himself. Let's let him open the vows early.

Thinking of this, she nodded and said, "Your master is right, in fact, it doesn't matter what you do in normal times, as long as you don't do anything wrong in important things." Eat! With that, she handed the porridge to Wulian again.

Wu Lian looked at the porridge and then at Ai Li, her eyes full of hesitation and struggle.

Ai Li's face sank, and he said, "Your master asked you to listen to me, and you have to eat whatever I tell you to eat!" If you don't listen to me, don't follow me!"

Wulian was still hesitating. Ai Li sneered: "It seems that you don't want to follow me, it's good!" Anyway, I'm used to doing it alone, and it's very troublesome to have one more person to take care of. ”

Wu Lian's eyes showed fear, and she immediately took the porridge bowl from Ai Li's hand, lowered her head and ate it with her head down.

Ai Li saw that he was eating vigorously, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Wulian was so hungry that she ate in a hurry, and she didn't pay attention, and she was suddenly stuck by a fish bone.

Ai Li hurriedly patted him on the back and reproached: "Eat slowly, the porridge is still there, and I won't rob you." ”

Wulian finally swallowed the fish bone, still keeping her head down, but eating much more slowly. As he ate, a few drops of water rolled down his face into the porridge bowl.

Ai Li looked at him like this, and said, "I see that you haven't been a monk for long. ”

Wu Lian raised her head with teary eyes and said in surprise, "How do you know?

Ai Li pursed his lips, smiled silently, walked to the bow of the boat and sat down, turning his head to look out.

After a while, Wulian finished eating and rubbed behind her. Ai Li still looked out, patted his side without looking back, and asked him to sit down.

Wulian sat down beside her, the wind blowing in her face, carrying a cool moisture. He followed her gaze, and in front of him was the rolling river, except that the water was still water; On both sides of the river are mountain peaks one after another, and there seems to be nothing strange except that mountains are mountains.

After a while, Wu Lian saw that Ai Li had been looking out of the boat without saying a word, so she asked strangely, "Sister Ai, what are you looking at?" ”

Ai Li replied lightly: "Look at the landscape." ”

Wu Lian tried to open her eyes for a while, only to feel that the mountains were similar, the water was no different, and there was really nothing to see, so she asked, "What is there to see about the mountains and rivers?" ”

Ai Li withdrew his gaze from a distance, glanced at him, and said, "When I was young, I didn't think there was anything nice about the landscape. But my father loves landscapes very much, and I asked him what are the beauty of landscapes? At that time, my father told me, "Look at this mountain is high in the sky, and it is not afraid of any wind or rain, but it stands firm." This water is bottomless, and even if it is stopped and blocked, it will not stop flowing eastward. To be a man is to be like this landscape, strong and unyielding, and never turn back. ”

Wulian muttered: "Be strong and unyielding, and never turn back." Your father said it so well! ”

Ai Li said: "Later, when I looked at the landscape again, I suddenly felt how small people are compared to the landscape. In the future, every time I see the landscape, I feel that all the troubles and sorrows are superfluous compared to the landscape. ”

Wu Lian was silent for a while, and then said, "But there are many times when you don't want to cause trouble, but trouble will automatically find you. ”

Ai Li let out an "um" and stopped answering. The two sat quietly together and watched the landscape. Wulian also began to slowly taste the difference between the mountains and rivers, and she became fascinated.

The boat moved forward quickly in the hands of the boat boss, and the landscape in front of it was constantly changing. As the sun rises higher and higher, the water surface shimmers with a sparkling golden light, and you can see fish and shrimp swimming underneath. The distant mountains and green trees are continuous, and they are becoming more and more verdant and pleasant.

The boat passed through mountain after mountain, and when it passed a wide river, Ai Li suddenly sighed and said, "Wulian, you are right, people don't want to find troubles by themselves, but sometimes troubles will come to the door by themselves. With that, she got up and walked to the stern.

Not far behind the boat, a small clipper was speeding by.

On the bow of the clipper, a man stood in the wind, dressed in soap pants, with a mighty figure, like an iron-cast ship. This person is none other than Zhan Feipeng!

Ai Li found that the outside of the small clipper was carved with a moire water beast, which turned out to be a small speedboat used by the government for inspection! These small speedboats can carry only six or seven people at most, but they are the fastest among small boats. Ai was secretly shocked that this Zhan Feipeng was able to mobilize official ships, which shows that the power of Zhenguo Temple in this place is extremely great!

Ai Li smiled at Wu Lian, who came over, and said, "Look, our troubles have come to the door. ”

As the official boat got closer and closer, someone on board shouted to their boat and taught it to stop immediately.

The boat boss looked at Ai Li at a loss. Ai Li said to the old boat: "Sell this boat to me, if the official asks, you will say that you are forced to helpless." After saying that, he took two pieces of silver and gave them to him.

The captain of the boat collected the silver taels, and a fierce man plunged into the water. As soon as the boat boss left, the boat stopped in the water. Ai Li stood at the stern of the boat and whispered something to Wu Lian, Wu Lian's face changed, and she looked a little scared, but she finally nodded and quietly stepped aside.

When the official ship was still three or four feet away from Ai's boat, Zhan Feipeng jumped over with force under his feet. The boat shook violently by the force of his landing. Then, brush, brush, brush, four more figures jumped onto the boat.

Zhan Feipeng shouted: "Demon girl, look where you are running this time!" ”

Ai Li frowned and said, "Zhan Daxia, you are really clingy." Isn't it just a knife? Even if you borrow me, won't you be able to pay it back in the future? ”

Zhan Feipeng said awe-inspiringly: "The Golden Flame Divine Weapon is a holy weapon of Zhenguo Temple, and it cannot be borrowed!" ”

Ai Li snorted and said, "You really don't borrow?" ”

Zhan Feipeng said categorically: "Don't borrow!" ”

Ai Li lowered his face coldly and said, "The knife of the knife mound is originally obtained by the capable." Saying that I borrowed it was just being polite to you. With that, she slowly retreated to the cabin.

"Demon girl, it's useless for you to hide!" Zhan Feipeng hurriedly chased in, and the four people behind him also surrounded him.

Zhan Feipeng and the others entered the cabin, only to find Ai Li standing in the cabin waiting for them.

Zhan Feipeng said: "Demon girl, quickly return the Golden Flame Divine Soldier!" ”

Ai Li smiled contemptuously and said, "You are a big man who always chases women for things, and you are not ashamed?" ”

Zhan Feipeng's face turned blue and he was about to answer, but when he saw Ai Li suddenly draw his knife, he immediately drew his knife in his hand and prepared to fight.

But Ai Li didn't attack him, but quickly slashed at the cabins on both sides, Zhan Feipeng was stunned, not knowing what she wanted to do.

The cabin was made of bamboo canopy, which was cut down by Ai Li, and suddenly covered the bodies of the five Zhan Feipeng, wrapping them tightly.

Ai Li had already retreated from the other side of the cabin, picked up Wulian, who was already waiting here, and jumped onto the official ship opposite.

There were still two people on the official boat who were holding the pulp, and when they saw Ai Li on board, they couldn't help but look earthy. Ai Li kicked them one by one and kicked them into the water.

Zhan Feipeng and others struggled in the bamboo canopy, afraid of hurting their own people and did not dare to use knives. Suddenly, Zhan Feipeng roared, and with all his strength, he shook the bamboo canopy into pieces, and the five of them saw the light of day again.

Zhan Feipeng looked around, but saw Ai Li standing on the official boat, and he had already rowed far away.

Ai Li smiled slightly and said, "Thank you Zhan Daxia for giving the boat!" I still have important things to do, and the Golden Flame Divine Soldier can't pay you back for the time being. As she spoke, she pushed the pulp in her hand and threw their boat farther and farther away.

Zhan Feipeng was furious and wanted to jump into the water, but was stopped by a person beside him: "The water here is so deep that you can't act recklessly!" ”

Zhan Feipeng was furious, and shouted at Ai Li, who quickly disappeared from view: "Demon girl! I'll definitely catch you next time! ”

The man next to him said: "There is a canyon called Lingfeng Gorge in front of this river, which is extremely steep, and it is the territory of the twelve chain docks in the south of the Yangtze River. Zhou Tianrun, the chief helmsman of the 12th Serial Dock in Jiangnan, once owed me a favor in the past, so we might as well fly the pigeon and pass the book and let him intercept it in front. On the water, Zhou Tianrun is known as 'a sword over the river', the people in the water are very good at kung fu, and the water array is incomparable, even if the official ship is fast, no matter how powerful Ai Li is, he can't win the 12 serial docks in the south of the Yangtze River on the water array. ”

Zhan Feipeng calmed down, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and said, "That's it!" ”
