Chapter Twenty-Six: On the Island
Lunar calendar September 28, late autumn
The west city gate is separated by three miles, it is the Yishui River, the Yishui River is quite open, three miles wide, at a glance, it is really the same color of the water and the sky, it is a good scenery, look closer, you can also see the fish swimming from the water.
At noon, there were many armor soldiers, until a wharf, on which three large ships were parked, and dozens of soldiers also followed and looked at the city gate.
The gate of the venue was sealed, everyone was already standing, and in the silence, Tongzhi Fan Wen stepped forward, and there were four people behind him who followed him with knives, and when they reached the steps, the whole courtyard suddenly became solemn and solemn.
Fan Tongzhi is forty years old, these sons are running around to rescue their daughter, and he has also used a lot of strength in Wei Hou, but it is in vain, at this time there is a trace of white hair on his temples, and although his eyes are bright, he still shows his old age.
Fan Wen was determined, and everyone had to salute.
"Everyone, please get up!" Fan Wen said in a hoarse voice: "Today, September 28, is the son of the river god's marriage, I think everyone knows, but this time the bride is my little daughter." ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of discussion, Fan Wen pressed his hands weakly, and calmed down again: "Although this official is presiding, the specific matter will be explained by Ge Keying." ”
Ge Ke was a young officer, about thirty, heroic, at this time he took a step forward, pressed his sword and said: "Since you were recruited by the Hou Ye, you have been bound by military law. ”
"The army has arrived, the north road and the east road and mountain roads have been blocked, if you want to escape from the battle, you will be killed, and you and other families are guarded by personal soldiers and government soldiers, you don't have delusions, so as not to harm the family. ”
Said the fate: "Lift up!"
When everyone looked at it, they saw that the two pro-soldiers each took out a plate with two bloody heads on it, and both of them had hideous expressions, which was terrifying.
"It's Second Master Cai. ”
"And Master Li. ”
The people below began to discuss, and at this time, Ge Ke was speechless, sneered and watched, and waited for the voice to gradually subside, before he said: "These two people dare to flee, they have been corrected, and Wei Hou ordered that their whole family will be punished today!"
As soon as these words fell, everyone couldn't help but shudder, and they all looked at each other.
"The government has laid out three hundred high-grade coffins in the coffin, and if there are any victims, they will give each person a mouthful and be buried thickly!" Ge Ke paced with his sword and said: "And no matter whether you win or lose, your family will reduce taxes for ten years, exempt taxes for ten years, and give each household a hundred taels of silver!"
"You are all warriors and warriors, the brave wins when you meet on a narrow road, as long as you kill the demon clan, you can win, I'm done!" said Ge Ke, his head removed.
Then two large plates were brought up, very heavy, and a young man came up and said, "I am Fan Shirong, the son of Tongzhi, please take a look." ”
It was covered with red silk, and Fan Shirong tore it off, only to see that the two plates were full of ingots like snow-white dumplings, scorching white flowers in the sun.
Suddenly, there was another whisper below.
Fan Shirong smiled heavily and said: "This time the bride is the little sister, my family is all silver, this is nine out of nine ingots, as long as you can protect the little sister out, one hundred taels of silver per person!"
This is two hundred taels, and the crowd below is gradually getting a little moved.
Fan Wen stepped forward at this time and said: "The little girl has already gone to the island before you, and I ask you strong men to bother to rescue the little girl, Fan Fu will try his best to repay you, but I will never shirk if I ask for something." ”
After saying this, Fan Tongzhi bowed deeply, he is a six-grade Tongzhi, he would never be like this in normal times, but at this moment, he loves his daughter so much.
The silver and promises were heartwarming, and when everyone saw this, they all said loudly: "If you have your lordship, we are here, even if it is dangerous, we will protect the return of the young lady." ”
"Then please. Fan Tongzhi bowed down, and everyone didn't dare.
Everyone also knew that time was urgent, and they all checked their weapons one by one, and all the equipment was stopped, and Ge Ke shouted and said, "Pull out!"
But they were really soldiers, and when three hundred people set off from the gate, they arrived at the dock area in less than half an hour, and at this time, the cannon sounded three times, and the sound was powerful.
A road winds down to the riverbank, and several large boats are seen moored on the shore in the distance, and Ge Ke ordered the army to be on guard, and asked, "Are the boats and grain and grass ready?"
"It's all prepared, there are a few beef, mutton and rice, enough for 500 people for a day and a night, all of which are high-quality ingredients. Someone reported it.
This group of 300 heroes, some people went up to carefully inspect the water and meat, and at this time, Ge Ke was not angry, so he let them check, and found that there was no problem in a moment.
"Everyone, please get on the boat, lunch can be used on the boat!" Seeing that it was not too early, Ge Ke finally urged, and this group of "heroes" saw that there was no reason to delay, so they had to get on the boat one by one.
These heroes were seldom disciplined, and when they were on the shore, they were in chaos, shouting and scolding for most of the hour, and finally there were hundreds of people on each boat.
Wang Cunye got on the boat, looked around, and saw that there were ten soldiers on the boat organizing order, and when he saw that all the people on the boat were on board, he shouted continuously: "Open the boat!"
At that moment, I saw the boat go all the way down the river.
Fan Tongzhi stood on the riverbank, looked at the boats and walked away, his face showed fatigue, walked to the horse, turned over the horse, and said: "Go home, your fate is determined by heaven!"
After a long sigh, a group of family members followed behind with the carriage, rolling up puffs of smoke and dust and returning home.
Although the ship is large, it is still too crowded to accommodate 100 people temporarily, on a deck, Wang Cunye stood on it, not interested in food and drinking at all, squinting, in the sword box on his back, the magic sword vibrated slightly with his breathing, and an awe-inspiring aura faintly appeared.
The people around are all old rivers and lakes, and they all feel it, and no one disturbs them immediately.
At this time, in the afternoon, the light gradually shone on the water surface, the water surface of the Yishui River was surging, compared with before, it seemed that the waves were a little faster, Wang Cunye felt something, and stared at the water.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise: "Someone has dived!"
Suddenly, there was chaos on the boat, and someone shouted: "Brothers, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of running out of firewood, and escape one by one!"
Shouting and throwing into the water, there was a stirring on the boat, but I saw that the accompanying soldiers were motionless, as if they did not see, and were moving, when suddenly they heard a scream on the water.
Everyone looked up, only to see some scales looming in the waves, and in a moment, they saw blood and screams permeating, and after a while, they gradually disappeared.
"There's a monster!" exclaimed the man on board.
"Fool, when is it now, when Hebo got married, the water was full of water tribes, and at this time, jump down, let you be heroic, and no one can escape!" A soldier squad leader sneered: "When you go ashore, you can still fight with the water tribe and jump into the water - it's too stupid!"
As he spoke, the head of the yamen squad also glanced at Wang Cunye, and there was a hint of murder in his eyes.
Everyone suddenly looked at each other, and a chill felt in their hearts, and they extinguished this thought.
Wang Cunye didn't move just now, and he didn't do it now, just staring at the water, and gradually, he saw a magic talisman faintly appearing on the hull of the ship, rippling with golden light, and dense shadows under the water, so he couldn't get close to the ship within three feet.
After reading it, Wang Cunye was even more secretly terrified in his heart.
The Yishui River is not a big river after all, and after a while, you can faintly see an island in the distance.
This island in the river is not big, but it is actually more like a sand dune, and when the boats approached, it was seen that there were no civilian houses in it, and the dock area was a vast flat land, and the soldiers immediately drove everyone down, together with a large amount of wine and food.
Wang Cunye grabbed some beef and put it in his arms, and did not take the wine, so he went up directly to see, only to see that the island is not big, you can see the edge at a glance, there are bamboo trees planted on the island, although it is late autumn, it is also very lush, a temple in the middle is looming, there is a wall outside, and there are ancient seals on the door.
A middle-aged man pointed out from afar: "This is the Hebo Temple, enter the Wanghe Pavilion, the pavilion used to be a fine house, you can all live, but don't want to disturb the temple, if you are not afraid of death, there is a place where the Hebo priests are." ”
Hearing this, someone asked, "Miss Fan is inside, how can I save it if I don't go?"
"Hmph, you don't need to save it, as long as you kill all the water tribes who came to greet you, tomorrow the first line of sunlight will shine down, and Miss Fan will be sent back safely. The middle-aged man sneered, glanced at Wang Cunye intentionally or unintentionally, and said so.
When everyone enters, they see that the bamboo forest and pine forest are dense, the road is graceful and quiet, and the pavilions reflect each other, and when they get inside, they see that this temple covers an area of not much, about four acres.
There is also a pavilion, the left and right are the fine houses, all one, a gust of wind blows, everyone did not expect such a good place, they are all dumbfounded.
Wang Cunye frowned, not confused by the scenery, only to see that this island is not big, once a large number of water tribes rush up, it will be difficult to have room for maneuver, this is a Jedi, this fight, destined to be a fierce battle.
Hebo is desolate, fond of women, married every ten years, with the daughter of the family as the wife, thirty years ago, the previous Wei Hou gathered Taoist priests, warriors entered the city to participate in the banquet, who can get rid of this evil, 團.
It's just that for thirty years, no one has been able to accomplish it.
Twenty years ago eight hundred came, ten years ago five hundred, and this year three hundred, and when they came, there was no news afterwards, and I didn't hear a few of them to be rewarded.
Wang Cunye couldn't help but feel moved at this moment, and the corners of his mouth showed a slight sneer and helplessness.
After laughing, he looked at the Yabing and the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man seemed to feel something, and he also looked up, and suddenly met his eyes.
"This person has seen it in Dayanguan before, with murderous intent, listening to the introduction just now, this person is Shen Zhengzhi? It seems that it is not good for me!" Wang Cunye thought about it, and suddenly remembered.
Although Zhang Longtao stayed on the boat at this time and was not seen by Wang Cunye, it still made Wang Cunye suspicious and vigilant.
Shen Zhengzhi retracted his gaze with some annoyance at this time, he was the foreman of the ship this time, just in case, someone would kill him tomorrow, especially when Wang Cunye was lucky enough to survive and get on the ship.
I didn't want to go ashore, but I was discovered, just looking at the chill in this kid's eyes, I knew that it was difficult to kill him while he was unprepared.
But even so, fighting with thousands of demon clans at night, even if he can survive, he will be exhausted and scarred, and he will have more than 20 soldiers by then, and he will not be able to kill this person?
Thinking of this, Shen Zhengzhi stopped talking and drank the soldiers: "Let's go back and get on the boat, thirty zhang away from the island, whoever can survive tomorrow can get on the boat." ”
As he spoke, he led all the soldiers to retreat to the boat, and pushed the boat away, and it was thirty feet away from the island.
