Xie Yunyan was lying on the couch comfortably.

Ning Shu: "You're not worried? ”

"It's okay to worry." Xie Yunyan smiled.

Choosing this official ship, he didn't fancy the official word.

And this ship is very large, and it must have been walking on this waterway all year round.

There were still a lot of guests on the ship, and if they really met the bandits, there would be a lot of strength in the numbers, or all of them would be killed, which would attract the attention of the government; Either scare off the bandits, or they take the opportunity to escape.

That night, it was safe.

Qi Chengan was so frightened that it was hard to sleep.

The next morning, as soon as he opened the door, he saw that the water was filled with a thick mist.

Visibility is only two feet away.

"Open the door, it's me!"

Qi Chengan came to the door of Xie Yunyan's room, and quietly stuck it on the crack of the door to report to the door.

After Ning Shu opened the door, she was also stunned when she saw the fog on the water, and then welcomed Qi Chengan into the private room.

"I haven't walked the waterways in this area, and I don't know if the weather outside will affect our boats, but I don't dare to say, I don't dare ask! Brother Xie, why don't you ask? ”

Xie Yunyan's eyelids raised slightly, "Brother Qi has the kung fu to worry about this, it is better to sleep peacefully." In this way, the water bandits are really coming, and Brother Qi has enough physical strength to escape. ”

"You!" Qi Chengan said angrily: "Shut your crow's mouth!" ”

He wasn't going to go back to his private room.

As long as Ning Shu didn't sleep, he would rather be targeted by Xie Yunyan than continue to stay by their side.

If you want to talk about Xie Yunyan, he is a little disdainful.

But by his side, that inexplicable sense of security cannot be ignored.

The three of them hastily ate some dry food in the room, and when they were about to have fun playing chess for a while, the hull of the ship suddenly shook slightly, and Qi Chengan's first reaction was to hide behind Xie Yunyan, "What's wrong?" Is it a water bandit coming? ”

The hull shook more and more, and Xie Yunyan couldn't give him an answer, so he only said to Ning Shu: "Be careful." ”

Ning Shu nodded slightly.

At this time, Yuan Wu and the others also hurriedly came to the private room where Ning Shu was.

When Yuan Wu came, he inquired about the situation in front of him, and saw dozens of officers and soldiers who had not known where to hide before gathered on the deck, "Master, there are many officers and soldiers gathered on the deck. ”

They still had bows and arrows in their hands, and they clearly looked like they were defending themselves against the enemy.

Yuan Wu frowned and proposed, "Master, why don't you leave with your wife first?" ”

Qi Cheng'an hurriedly added: "And me." ”

Ning Shu walked to the door, opened the door slightly, and carefully observed the situation ahead.

Fortunately, the private room where Ning Shu was located was not far from the deck, and it happened to be able to see everything on the deck at a glance.

Xie Yunyan also walked over and stood behind her, staring at her.

On the deck at this time, the officers and soldiers all drew their bows one by one, and they were all in a state of readiness, looking at the fog ahead with tension.

And in front of the bow of the ship, there was a gray fog, and nothing could be seen.

The other people on the boat also seemed to notice that something was wrong, and the slightest noise that could be heard just now stopped abruptly at this moment.

Suddenly, the officers and soldiers who took the lead on the deck suddenly shouted at the thick fog in front of them: "We are waiting for the official number A ship, I don't know which noble person is ahead, can you show up?" ”

The official ship is a symbol of their status, and the number A represents the level of tolls paid to the largest bandits in the vicinity.

The boat can travel to and from this waterway all year round, relying on the expensive tolls.

was intercepted at this time, and the official was naturally a little breathless.

Although everyone behind him was on full alert, his tone was still very respectful.

Half an hour passed after the words fell, and a dark shadow faintly appeared in front of him.

Ning Shu half-squinted her eyes and looked carefully, it was actually a huge ship that was more than twice the height of the official ship.

A dark purple flag on the bow of the ship was fluttering in the wind, and with the shaking of the flag, a gluttonous fish embroidered with golden silk thread on the flag seemed to be alive, and was roaring at the official ship with its teeth and claws.

"It's a bandit." Xie Yunyan's heart sank.

Sure enough, the waterway is not so easy to walk.

Or are these bandits the ones who ask the king?

Qi Chengan was so frightened that he didn't dare to gasp, "I said a long time ago that I wouldn't take the waterway, but you didn't listen!" Hey, now it's okay, let's wait for the end together! ”

Ning Shu was silent, her eyes locked on the big ship in front of her.

Just then, a vague figure appeared on the bow of the ship.

He was dressed in a white robe, with long hair tied up in a crown, his face was like white jade, and his black eyebrows were like a sword, no matter how he looked at it, he looked more like a scholar than Qi Chengan, and he didn't look like a terrifying water bandit at all.

He was still playing with a string of dark Buddha beads in his hand, and the hand that twisted the Buddha beads suddenly paused, and his voice was faint: "In the Xia Yulong Gang Shen Yu, Your Excellency is Lord Li?" ”

Seeing Shen Yu's polite appearance, Lord Li's vigilant mind relaxed most of the time.

He raised his hand slightly, signaling the officers and soldiers behind him to put down their weapons, and he stepped forward and bowed and saluted: "It turned out to be the Shen Gang Leader, I don't know what the Shen Gang Leader came here in person?" But isn't it enough for us to pay tribute to the Shen gang leader? ”

The two have been dealing with each other for many years, and they are only meeting for the first time.

Master Li couldn't help but be confused by Shen Yuzhilan Yushu's appearance, and he couldn't connect the man in front of him with the water bandit leader who killed people without blinking.

Shen Yufeng smiled clearly, and continued to twist the string of Buddha beads very slowly in his hand, "My lord, I am polite, I came today to find someone." ”

Speaking of this, the movement in his hand was another pause, and his friendly gaze instantly carried a hint of profundity, and slowly swept towards the cabin behind Master Li.

Qi Chengan whispered: "He shouldn't have come to us, right?" ”

Xie Yunyan shook his head, "King Xun is eager to dismantle us in eight pieces, how can he treat us so politely?" ”

Although he didn't know who Shen Yu was looking for, judging from Shen Yu's behavior, he had enough ability to crush this official ship, but he still showed up to negotiate with Lord Li.

That means that no matter who he is looking for, it may not have anything to do with the king.

Ning Shu also nodded secretly.

A flash of surprise flashed in Lord Li's eyes: "Who is the Shen Gang looking for?" ”

Not to mention one person, even ten people, Lord Li, in order to keep the official ship, naturally have to be respectfully offered.

Shen Yu smiled faintly, "I don't know who it is, but can Master Li let me board the official ship to find it myself?" ”

Lord Li hesitated and glanced at the water bandit behind Shen Yu with a fierce look in his eyes, and Shen Yu said again: "Don't worry, Lord Li, I am the only one on board." ”

"Shen Gang Master, please!"

Master Li hurriedly put away the trace of hesitation, and greeted Shen Yu on board with a smile.

Shen Yu lifted the robe on his body and jumped over, which was not very appropriate, but at this moment, he really looked like an immortal walking out of the painting.

After landing lightly on the deck, his deep gaze seemed to pass through the crack in the door, and he looked straight at Ning Shu from afar.
