Chapter 62: Whimsical
"That's what I thought when we came out of the council hall. Therefore, I also asked Mr. Qu quietly. Mr. Qu said that this was almost a dead end, and he only thought of a way to attack for the time being. However, this plan has been rejected by the eldest lady before. That's why I'm in such a hurry! ”
As he spoke, Liu Qiang looked up at the door, and it was already past noon. In two or three hours it will be dark. Liu Qiang sat down and stood up in a hurry, stood up and sat down again.
"What's the best way, what's the best way? It's hard to kill me. I, Liu Qiang, want to say that I will go into battle with a knife and charge to kill the enemy, then I am not scary at all. It's just this brain-using thing that really can't be done.
Alas! My useless head, I wish I could chop this useless thing with an axe. The more Liu Qiang thought about it, the more anxious he became.
Yu Ren hurriedly walked up and gently patted Liu Qiang's back.
"Don't rush, don't rush. Isn't there still time! As the saying goes, three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang. Let's think together, I believe that we will be able to come up with a way to satisfy your eldest lady. ”
After speaking, Yu Ren said to the boy who seemed to be frightened when he was standing aside. "Go get some food first! It's past noon, and we haven't eaten yet! When you have a full stomach, you have the strength to think slowly! ”
The boy hurried to the kitchenette in the backyard as if he had been amnesty. Since he followed Liu Qiang, although he knew that he had a violent temper, he often lost his temper. But it was the first time he had seen something like today.
Yu Ren sent the child away, and then said to Liu Qiang seriously, "You said that the island can't be attacked from the front, and you can't land on the side." Is it that as long as we have a way to land on the island, we will definitely be able to defeat this Zhong Laosan? ”
"This is natural. I've seen this Zhong Laosan. With his outstretched hand, he can't pass ten moves under my hands. If I can land on the island, I Liu Qiang only need thirty people, and I can guarantee that I can settle these rabbit cubs. Liu Qiang said.
"If so. I have a solution. ”
"Oh!" As soon as Liu Qiang heard that there was a way, he immediately came to his senses and stood up from his chair at once.
"What's the solution?"
Yu Ren whispered a few words in Liu Qiang's ear. Liu Qiang's eyes lit up immediately, and he took Yu Ren's hand and left.
"What are you doing?"
"Go find Mr. Qu!" Liu Qiang dragged Yu Ren away and said.
Mr. Qu's residence is not far from Liu Qiang's. After only turning three or four families, we arrived. Mr. Qu also lives in a house with a small courtyard. Liu Qiang didn't wait for the servant at the door to report, so he directly pulled Yu Ren and ran into the backyard.
In the backyard, Mr. Qu was in a daze at a few goldfish in a small pool.
"Mr. Qu, Mr. Qu. Hahahaha! ”
Far away, Liu Qiang's loud voice came. Mr. Qu is a little strange, what's wrong with Liu Qiang today. I was worried that I couldn't help the eldest lady capture Chen Qian Island. In another hour or two, I'm afraid I'm going to be hit by the board. This matter was provoked by Liu Qiang, why is he still so happy?
If it was because Liu Qiang had already come up with an idea, he would not believe it if he killed Mr. Qu. He didn't believe that with a person like Liu Qiang, he could come up with any good idea to land on the island. So, Mr. Qu's first judgment was that something was wrong with this big piece of brain.
Liu Qiang excitedly pulled Yu Ren all the way to Mr. Qu.
Mr. Qu has been staring at Liu Qiang, observing up and down to see what is abnormal with his big man.
"Mr. Qu, I have a way!"
"What's the solution?" Mr. Qu was unmoved, he just asked lightly, he didn't believe that Liu Qiang, who had always only used his strength and couldn't use his brain, could come up with any good ideas.
"What a way to attack Chenqian Island! I can guarantee that this time it will be a success! ”
"Oh?" Mr. Qu was so confident when he heard Liu Qiang's words, and his first judgment was: Yu Ren thought of this idea for him. It seems that Liu Qiang must have revealed their identities to Yu Ren. Although even if Liu Qiang doesn't talk about this now, sooner or later someone will have to tell Yu Ren.
However, Mr. Qu because of this Yu Ren's special relationship with the eldest lady. His original idea was to drag it out. Before the eldest lady gave clear instructions, she also pretended to be deaf and dumb. This is why he was reluctant to take Yu Ren back to Wentao Courtyard last night. However, Liu Qiang insisted on bringing Yu Ren back, and Mr. Qu would not be able to stop him, otherwise, let Yu Ren misunderstand that he was deliberately embarrassed by himself, and he was afraid that the eldest lady would have a dislike for him in the future.
Mr. Qu is an old and serious person, but his subordinates have such an honest and reckless Liu Qiang. In the past few years, it has really brought him a lot of trouble. However, from the bottom of his heart, Mr. Qu still prefers this honest and reckless man. Because he is reckless and does not play tricks. This kind of person is rare in this era.
"Tell me about it!" Mr. Qu made eye contact with Yu Ren, and when he saw that he was really confident, he turned his attention to Liu Qiang again.
"Is our biggest problem right now that our people can't get to the island?"
"Nonsense. If we could land on the island, this Zhong Laosan would have been extinguished for us a long time ago! ”
"I have a way to get our people on the island." Liu Qiang originally spoke straightforwardly. But this time, probably he was also affected by the way Yu Ren spoke, and he actually sold off with Mr. Qu, which made Mr. Qu a little unaccustomed.
"What's the solution?"
"Fly to the island." Liu Qiang thought he had a good idea, and when he said this answer, he had a smug look on his face.
Mr. Qu gave Liu Qiang a slap on the head. "Fly to the island? You're dizzy! You know how far our ship is from the island, even if it is the closest, it is more than a mile. Fly? You're a bird! Or when you're a birdman? ”
When Mr. Qu said this, of course, he didn't tell Liu Qiang, he told Yu Ren, who gave his idea. Although he didn't want to take the initiative to offend Yu Ren, after hearing this idea, Mr. Qu was still angry. I want to scold this scholar who can talk on paper.
Liu Qiang was still full of confidence, but when he was slapped down by Mr. Qu, this confidence immediately disappeared by six or seven percent. So, the voice also lowered.
"Yes, it was Yu Xianggong who gave me the idea. He said he had recently made something that could fly into the sky with people. ”
Mr. Qu looked at Yu Ren with a face full of disbelief.
Yu Ren knew that it would be impossible for him to keep silent at this time. So he said, "Actually, it's not a big deal." It's just an enlarged Kong Ming lantern. Although I have only just made this thing, I don't think it will be a problem to fly such a mile or two to the surface of the sea.
As long as one of us flies up to the island, we can take a string with us. Then tie a thick rope behind the string. Tie one end of the thick rope to a tree or rock on the island, and the other end is tied to our boat. In this way, our people can slip up to the island one by one with this rope. What does Mr. Qu think of this idea? ”
Mr. Qu did not answer. At first, he didn't believe that there was any way for this Yu Ren to help their people fly to the island. But when he heard Yu Ren talk about Kong Ming lantern. He began to believe it a little. After all, this Kong Ming lantern existed more than 1,000 years ago. It's not a big deal. And to make an enlarged Kong Ming lantern, theoretically speaking, it is still feasible.
"I don't know where this thing is for Yu Xianggong?"
"Oh! It should be almost ready. A few of my friends are doing it. If Mr. Qu thinks it can be used. I'll show you tomorrow. ”
Mr. Qu was even more eager. "Can we ...... now?"
Yu Ren looked up at the sky. "Now! My place is not close to here, and it is still outside the city. If we rush over now, we won't be able to come back before dark. And, I estimate, it's going to take a day or two for them to get things ready. Now that I go, I can't see it. Why don't we explain to your eldest lady first, and it's not too late to go tomorrow. ”
In fact, another reason why Yu Ren was reluctant to go now was that he really wanted to see Li Yu immediately. Since I have thought of such a solution for them. Thinking about Li Yu, whether in public or private, he wants to meet him. This lovesickness that doesn't come to the moon is not so easy for Yu Ren.
