Chapter 875: Interception in the middle of the river
The most convenient transportation in this era is water transportation, the water transport from all over the country should enter Beijing, the river transport is developed, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, the tax in the south of the Yangtze River is the first in all places, the annual water transport is the most, there is a canal directly to Yangzhou.
Lin Daiyu has been making boats all the way around, and now it has been six or seven days since she went south along the river, and she has entered the southern stairs when she is out of the cold north, and she can get to Yangzhou in one day.
There is a way to be closer to home, but when I arrived in Jiangnan, I felt some unusual meaning.
Jia Lian is also the young master of the Gonghou Mansion, although he grew up in a honey pot since he was a child, he has been doing errands outside for many years, and he has been well-informed in traveling south and north. As soon as I arrived in Gangnam, I felt that something was wrong.
"Wang'er, go and pass the word, let Miss Lin go back to the room, and close the doors and windows. All cheer up. ”
Wang'er is Jia Lian's long-term follower, so she naturally knows what's going on. hurriedly sent someone to spread the word, and the little servants brought with him were all ready one by one.
"Master, there are two boats behind me, and the posture is not looking for trouble, but it seems to be escorting us."
Jia Lian frowned slightly, "I saw it, Captain Long's boat." I'm afraid something big is going to happen to the south. Send and ask who it is. I'm going to speak in person! ”
Lin Daiyu was urged back to the room, and Zijuan closed the doors and windows.
"What's going on?" Lin Daiyu couldn't wait to ask, how could she not be curious!
"I don't know!" Zijuan shook his head lightly, "Second Master Lian asked people to pass the word, so let's not show up." The girl relaxed, there were all the housekeepers outside, and there was the second master Lian. It's okay! ”
Lin Daiyu first came into contact with Jia Lian, and she also knew that her second brother was more reliable than Jia Baoyu, but the more she went to Jiangnan, the more she knew that there was instability here. Originally, the south of the Yangtze River was prosperous, and there would never be such a scene.
On both sides of the strait, the busy farming and weaving she was busy with is gone. Although it is winter, the climate in the south is warm, and there will be no shortage of people who rely on water to draught.
But before she could think about it, the boat stopped. Seeing that he was about to enter Yangzhou Mansion, he had already reached the ground in Yangzhou, and he shouldn't stop the boat here no matter what. Why did it stop here?
Just as he was about to quietly open the window and look out, a feathered arrow landed on the side of the ship. Frightened, her hands loosened.
"Girl!" Zijuan hurriedly helped Lin Daiyu down and helped her squat beside the cabinet, "Don't make a sound, I'm afraid I've met a wicked person." ”
Lin Daiyu didn't know about this, so she only nodded lightly and didn't speak.
Outside, Jia Lian's face was blue for a while, and these people in the rivers and lakes opposite were so rampant that they even had bows and arrows. The dragon forbidden lieutenant on the side, two ships, dozens of people, they dared to blatantly attack and kill the dragon forbidden lieutenant.
Seeing the three big ships fighting together, dozens of water ghosts came out of nowhere and wanted to capsize on the boat.
Zhu Tong's face was gloomy, he knew that he would not swagger out, the emperor asked them to protect Lin Daiyu in person, and secretly did not know how many batches of manpower were handled, this time when he arrived at Yangzhou Mansion, he thought it was okay, so he swaggered to appear to deter Xiaoxiao, that is, he was sure that they would not dare to play hard, who would have thought that it would be a direct assassination, so many people, and he planned to let them get out alive.
"You are so presumptuous, you dare to attack and kill the officials of the imperial court."
Who knew that those people didn't answer at all, and it was clear that they wanted to kill people and kill their mouths.
"Arrow!"
At this moment, they don't ask for help, they are afraid that they will not have their lives, they are small when they die, they can't complete the task, and the entire Yangzhou City is afraid that they will be slaughtered.
"Whew!"
The cloud-piercing arrows rose into the sky one after another, resounding through the sky. Their attacks became more and more fierce, and Zhu Tong had no choice but to retreat to the last ship, no matter what, Lin Daiyu could not be allowed to have an accident. Otherwise, even if he doesn't die now, the emperor won't be able to spare him.
"Commander Zhu! What to do now! Jia Lian was so frightened that he didn't dare to look up, so he only hid in the corner of the boat, and the clippers around him had already surrounded them.
"Most of them are coming for Miss Lin, and they want to threaten Lord Lin with her!" Zhu Tong said helplessly: "I only hope that the iron horse of the champion Hou can be faster, otherwise we will only kill ourselves!" ”
"Arrow!"
The second trumpet shot into the air, and it became more and more eager. The clippers outside were not besieged, but there were few people left.
"Listen, the people on the boat, we are the Cao Gang Inspector. Now I suspect that you pretended to be the Dragon Forbidden Lieutenant, held Lord Lin's orphan girl hostage, and captured you with your hands tied, so as to save you from death. ”
"Bastard thing!" Zhu Tong scolded secretly: "When will it be your turn to inspect the Cao Gang!" You dare to stop the ship of the Rongguo Mansion. ”
"Hahaha, Lao Tzu doesn't know what Rongguo Mansion is, he only knows that Lao Tzu, the king of heaven, is here, and he has to obediently let Lao Tzu send ......"
"Yes!" Before the words fell, the cold voice rolled in like thunder. Dozens of black shadows broke through the air, and they were actually soldiers wearing black armor and heavy armor, only to see that they were wearing heavy armor and could lift weights like light, like flying birds, and fell to the boat blatantly, the small clipper could not withstand the ravages of such heavy armor at all, and more than a dozen people on the boat were strangled in the blink of an eye.
Dozens of men like black towers killed all these water ghosts without even giving them a chance to dive.
A dense rain of arrows, a volley, emptied the vicinity of the three ships, and only one alive remained.
This person swallowed his saliva, I am afraid that he has forgotten all the big words he said just now, and the surrounding mountains are densely packed with black riders, black clothes and black armor, and bronze ghost faces. The black dragon flags danced hunting. The largest of the many flags was draped with the word Qin.
"Xiao ...... Riding ......"
"Master Hou!" The dragon forbidden lieutenants knelt down one after another and saluted, "Subordinates should be damned!" ”
"Wow!"
A black armor jumped and captured the man to the shore and arrived in front of Qin Yu. He didn't have the slightest resistance before he kicked his leg off.
Qin Yu took off the mask of the green ghost, revealing a young and unspeakable face, "You just said that you are the inspector of the Cao Gang?" Who are you going to audit? Do you need to check it for you? ”
"Hou Ye spare his life, Hou Ye spare his life...... "There is only one young Hou Ye who can command Xiao Qi, and that is the champion Hou who spans 100,000 miles across foreign lands, this is a famous embryo killing, who dares to provoke it."
"I heard that your Cao Gang is the largest gang in the world? Take charge of the world's fortunes. Coincidentally, Ben Hou has always believed that Lao Tzu is the first in the world. Chonghu, over to you! Stay away and don't disturb my sister. ”
Behind him, a black armor bowed and saluted, grabbed the person and entered the mountain forest behind him, and then there were bursts of terrible screams. It's far away, but it's still chilling.
Qin Yu put Fang Tian's halberd aside, took off the ghost face, put it on the horse, and then got on the boat.
"A bunch of waste, I haven't grown up after so many years!" Isn't Zhu Tong, who led the team, the commander of the dragon forbidden captain who was preparing to kill Qin Yu in the Vermilion Bird Tower in the early years.
"If your subordinates don't protect you effectively, you deserve death!" Zhu Tong was helpless, when did they ever feel so aggrieved? Except that the last time he killed Qin Yu was almost wiped out by him, it was an accident. This time it was purely careless.
