Chapter 56: Liu Hong and Li Biao
Shi Jian followed Chen Guangrui, Yin Wenjiao, and the scholar to the Hongjiang ferry, where there was only a slightly larger boat and a few fishing boats.
Chen Guangrui looked at the small boats carefully, and felt that it was not too good, looked at the slightly larger boat in the distance, nodded, and let Yin Wenjiao and the scholar stay where they were, and he stepped forward to ask.
Chen Guangrui came to the big ship and asked the captain who was fixing the boat, "Boatman, can you take us to Jiangzhou?"
The captain stopped what he was doing, looked at Chen Guangrui and said, "This minister, are you alone?"
"Of course not, I also have a lady and a scholar, and they also go to Jiangzhou together. After Chen Guangrui finished speaking, he pointed to Yin Wenjiao and the scholar in the back.
The captain looked at it and said, "Three of you, well, go to Jiangzhou for a total of twenty taels of silver." ”
"Okay. Chen Guangrui answered, shook his hand at Yin Wenjiao and the scholar, and motioned for them to come over.
Yin Wenjiao and the scholar walked over, Chen Guangrui asked the scholar to take out twenty taels of silver and hand it to the captain, got on the boat first, stretched out his hand to Yin Wenjiao and said, "Madam, grab the husband's hand, I'll pull you up." ”
Yin Wen Jiaojiao answered, stretched out her hand, lowered her head and stepped on the bow of the boat, and asked Chen Guangrui to pull her up.
At this time, the captain put away the silver, turned his head to look, froze, he was fascinated by the beauty of Yin Wenjiao, only to see that his face was like the round moon in the sky, without a trace of surplus and deficiency, his eyes were like ripples in autumn, ruddy cherry mouths, green willows waist, it was really the so-called face of sinking fish and geese, and the appearance of shy flowers in the closed moon, even the scholar called him did not know.
Seeing this, the scholar stretched out his hand and shook him, and said, "Boatman, what's wrong with you, you didn't react?"
The captain calmed down and said, "It's nothing, I've just been distracted, I'll help you get something." After speaking, he stretched out his hand to help the scholar take the salute and put it on the bow of the boat.
The scholar smiled and thanked: "Thank you for your help, if it weren't for you, I don't know how I would have gotten up." ”
The captain said, "It's okay, you go in quickly, I'll untie the rope, and I'll start the boat in a while." With that, he began to untie the ropes.
"Okay. Seeing this, the scholar did not say anything, but went to the boat with a salute.
After the captain untied the rope and got on the boat, Shi Jian looked nearby, saw that no one was looking at him, quietly approached the side of the boat where Chen Guangrui and the others were, jumped up, and hid in a corner of the boat full of things and quietly waited for the plot to happen.
"Wow~Wow~Wow" The waves hit the hull of the boat, and the boat shook a little, so that Shi Jian was about to fall asleep.
"Elf, why are you in such good spirits?" Shi Jian looked at the elf with blank eyes.
"Hehe, master, it's the first time the elf has seen the sea, of course it's very energetic. The elf smiled and said to Shi Jian, and then said helplessly: "But master, why do you have such a dying expression, it can't be a landlubber, right?"
Shi Jian immediately sat up, pretending to be very energetic and said to the elf: "How is it possible, it's too boring on the sea, floating around, what I see in front of me is either sea water or seabirds, I'm annoyed when I sit down." After Shi Jian finished speaking, he thought in his heart: "Hmph, I am a landlubber, how can I let your little girl know, if I know, wouldn't my wise image as your master be ruined." ”
At this time, Shi Jian suddenly heard the elf's astonished voice, "Master, look, what are Chen Guangrui and Yin Wenjiao doing at the bow of the boat?"
Shi Jian looked in the direction pointed by the elf, and saw Chen Guangrui helping Yin Wenjiao to the bow of the boat, and the two looked at Hai Qingqing, I don't know what to say. Shi Jian grinned and said to the elf: "Elf, that's two couples talking about love, it's nothing." After Shi Jian finished speaking, he thought in his heart: "Hey, Chen Guangrui, cherish today's day, as expected, tonight is the time when you are beaten to death, I hope that the Dragon King of Hongjiang can abide by the agreement, save your soul and body, so that you can return to the yang in the future, otherwise I can only use the Buddha Light Relic to save your life, but in this case, the rest of the matter will be troublesome." It's a small matter whether your son can still go to get the scriptures, the anger of the Mantian God Buddha is very scary, and the Mantian God Buddha probably won't let you be resurrected. ”
The night slowly darkened, and the two of us returned to the cabin at the bow of the ship.
Shi Jian took out the wine and food packed in the tavern from the package and whispered with the elves, although he could make himself feel free to be hungry by breathing the aura of heaven and earth, but it was also good to satisfy his appetite occasionally, and it was also a pleasure to eat. Didn't you see the elves eating so happily, the elves couldn't starve to death at all, didn't they still pretend to be hungry every day to find something to eat.
After eating and drinking, Shi Jian packed up the debris and garbage on the ground, came to the side of the boat, and carefully threw it into the river, without attracting the attention of everyone on the boat, and returned to the distance to sit down, waiting for the development of the plot.
Late at night, in a reed swing, Chen Guangrui finished dinner and was reading a book intently in the boat. Yin Wenjiao held a coat in her hand, walked to Chen Guangrui's side softly, and gently put the coat on Chen Guangrui's body.
Chen Guangrui turned her head and found that it was his wife Yin Wenjiao, smiled at her, stood up, and asked his wife Yin Wenjiao to help him tie the rope of his coat. After tying the rope, Chen Guangrui took his wife Yin Wenjiao's hand, walked to the room, came to the boat, and the two hugged each other and looked at the night river view.
At the same time, the captain came to the stern of the boat and said to another boatman who was paddling: "Li Biao, the night is dark and the water is deep here, should we do something?"
"Liu Hong, what are you talking about?" asked the husband, who was known as Li Biao.
"Li Biao, in addition to you and me, there are three other people on the boat, a powerless Xianggong, a scholar, and a woman, can you do it?" Liu Hong said angrily, and made a gesture of cutting his throat.
"Okay, when we're done, we can just throw them into the river to feed the fish and destroy the corpses. What do you say?" Li Biao said viciously.
"Li Biao, I only want the man's salute and the woman, and the rest of the silver and the like are all yours. Liu Hong thought for a while and said to Li Biao.
Li Biao looked at Liu Hong hesitantly and said, "Liu Hong, you didn't have such thoughts because you fell in love with that woman, right?"
"That's right, do you want to do it?" Liu Hong stared at Li Biao.
Li Biao was stared at in a panic, afraid that Liu Hong would attack him, so he hurriedly responded: "Why don't you do it, go, go now." ”
After the two discussed, they took out a black scarf from their arms and covered their faces. He took out a stick from the stern of the boat and walked cautiously towards the bow of the boat.
Shi Jian watched the movements of the two from a high place, his heart sank, he made a move, he had to watch carefully, he must not make a mistake, and when they killed Chen Guangrui, he would protect his body and put it in front of the door of Hongjiang Dragon Palace.
