"Afraid of what? With the national soldiers strong and strong, they have their own strategies to deal with it! "Ji Tayu doesn't care.

"Brother Duoyou," Ji Hu interjected, "Young Master has always felt sorry for E Shizi, haven't you seen that he has been avoiding him all these days?" ”

Ji Duoyou patted Zhao Bohu on the shoulder: "According to me, his Hubei country was sealed by the Zhou family, but he did not defend his Fang country, and lost his teacher and country. It is a great favor for the Son of Heaven not to cure his sin, what else does he want? When you arrive in Hojing, persuade the Son of Heaven to change the seal of a good place for him! ”

"That's it!" Zhao Bohu plucked a grass beside him and slowly rubbed it in the palm of his hand: "This expedition made me feel a lot of emotion. I didn't understand before, why over the years, Siyi has become more and more arrogant day by day, and my Zhou room has weakened day by day? Now I understand, 'relatives with the same surname, five generations and beheaded', whether it is the surname Ji or not, the princes will only play their own small abacus in the end, how can anyone really think about the dynasty? That's the root cause. But what can I do? ”

Ji Hu was also thinking about it seriously, Duoyou was bold, and suddenly called Bohu: "Since you have no way, don't think about it anymore, it will only increase your troubles, why bother?" You literati just like to ask for trouble. ”

Zhao Bohu smiled with relief: "Ziliang is right, it's useless to think too much, the Great Zhou Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years, and the accumulation of disadvantages is not limited to one day, what can I do as a scholar?" That's it, Ziliang, you might as well go back to Hojing with us! According to your merits this time, you will definitely have to stay in the DPRK and the Central Committee as a leader, and wouldn't it be better than returning to the country to be a general? ”

"yes, Brother Tayo." Ji Hu also promised very seriously: "I will ask my father to appoint you as the guard of the East Palace and preside over the guarding of the East Camp." In the future, you and the young master will be my right-hand man, how about it? ”

Duoyou smiled with gratitude: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince!" Thank you Zimu for your love. It's just that although my mother is a wife, she is not favored by her father for a while, and she is in a difficult situation at home. I really can't leave her to go to Hokyo alone, please forgive me! ”

Ji Hu didn't think this was a problem: "Then you can bring your mother with you!" ”

Duoyou smiled bitterly: "After all, she is not a concubine, but a main room, how can she leave her husband and a large family to walk with me?" I already know the prince's intentions, so let's talk about this later! ”

Ji Hu was still about to persuade again, but Zhao Bohu stopped him from speaking: "That's it! Everyone has their own people to care for, so why force it? If fate arrives, it will come naturally. ”

He clapped his hands, stood up, and stood with his hands behind his back: "Tomorrow, we will leave Tonglu Mountain!" Hopefully, the peace here will last a long time! ”

In the Western Zhou Dynasty, people were still chiseling wood for wheels, and the traffic was very inconvenient. By the time Zhao Bohu's men and horses returned to the shore of the Han River to prepare to cross the river again, it was almost the middle of autumn and September. Although it is not a deep winter, it is also a lead cloud hanging low, and everything is depressed. The withered grass and dead poplars on the banks of the river trembled in the wind, and the sound of babbling was like a low moan.

There are dozens of flat boats lined up on the river beach, which is the result of the front station of Shenhou and Eyufang. Seeing the convoy, the two of them came forward from afar and saluted Ji Hu: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the boat is ready, and you can cross the river after about two ferries back and forth." ”

Zhao Bohu lifted the curtain, stood at the front of the car and looked at it, and asked, "Shenhou and Shizi have worked hard, and there are enough boats." ”

Eyu Fang hurriedly said: "There are fifty large and small ships, if it goes well, it will only be half a day before the river will be crossed." Since the number of military vehicles was less than 100, it would be delayed to build a pontoon bridge, so Shenhou and I decided to collect civilian boats for ferrying. ”

Shenhou took a step forward, turned around and pointed to a big boat with cabins moored on the shore and said, "The prince and Zhao Gongzi will take that big boat when they stay together!" However, when I and E Shizi take the first step, you will board the ship again when the second batch is in order, and you will be safe. ”

"Shenhou Lao Cheng is planning things, and the tiger admires it very much!"

The two turned around and went to board the ship, but Ji Duoyou didn't understand: "Zimu, what does Shenhou mean?" Why don't you let us cross the river first? ”

Zhao Bohu smiled: "You don't know this!" When King Xianzhao crossed the Han River, the boat he was riding suddenly overturned and died here. Historical records record that there is a vision in the sky, but there are also rumors that it was done by the people of Chu. ”

"Oh?" Ji Hu came to be interested: "How to do the hands and feet?" ”

"It is rumored that the Chu people first dismantled the boat that King Zhao was riding, and then glued it with special materials in Chu. As soon as the boat entered the water and reached the center of the river, the planks gradually spread out, so it happened. ”

"If it's true, the Chu people are really vicious!" Ji Hu said hatefully.

"It's just a legend, Shenhou and they are also careful, there may not be such a thing!"

It is said that there is such a shadow, and everyone will inevitably feel apprehensive in their hearts. It wasn't until they saw Shenhou, E Yufang and Ji Zheng took the big boat to the other side safely, and the big boat came back again, and the three of them boarded the boat with confidence.

When Ji Hu boarded the ship, the captain of the boat and the lady of the boat knelt on both sides of the side of the boat to greet him. A wave was subduing, and Ji Hu only felt a shake under his feet. "Prince beware!" The boat boss hurriedly reached out to support him.

Zhao Bohu walked in front, heard this soft call, turned his head to see, it was just a swarthy middle-aged man with a goatee. But the accent is not very authentic, with a bit of Central Plains accent, and the voice is much younger than people, so I can't help but take a few more looks. Ji Duoyou urged behind him: "Brother Zimu, hurry up!" Don't get in the way! ”

Zhao Bohu didn't think much about it, so he had to get into the cabin. This is a ferry boat specially used to ferry dignitaries on both sides of the Han River, and it is naturally much taller than ordinary civilian boats. Open the lattice window on the side of the cabin, and you can enjoy the scenery on both sides of the Han River.

Anchor up! The banks and beaches of the river receded at full speed, and gradually only a horizon could be seen. When the boat arrived in the middle of the river, a thick fog suddenly drifted out of nowhere, enveloping the boat, and he could only dimly see the boat closest to him.

Ji Hu curled his mouth: "Why is it foggy all of a sudden?" Nothing can be seen! ”

"The Han River is seven or eight miles wide, and the water and gas are abundant, and it is common for the boat to encounter dense fog in the middle of the river." Zhao Bohu comforted.

Ji Duoyou was sitting idly drinking by the porthole on the other side, and was about to make a joke, when he suddenly jumped up: "Ouch! Who put an awl in my ass? ”

Ji Hu laughed: "Brother Duoyou, you are really funny!" ”

Zhao Bohu's face suddenly sank like water, and he shouted: "Don't be noisy!" Listen! What is the sound? ”

The two held their breath and listened carefully, and sure enough, there was a faint sound of "ding dong", Ji Duoyou threw down the wine jug, lay on the side of the boat and listened for a while, and shook his head. Then he stuck his head out of the window and listened to it for a while, then simply knelt on the deck and listened to it. For a moment, he immediately shouted, "Not good! There is someone at the bottom of the boat, it seems that the ship is being scuttled! ”

"Ziliang, hurry up and protect the prince!" Zhao Bohu dropped this sentence, and immediately rushed out of the cabin and shouted: "The prince is assassinated, and the ships on the left and right will come to escort him!" ”

The boat boss turned his face, and the gaze under the hat became extremely fierce, and Zhao Bohu was shocked in his heart: "You are not the boat boss!" Who are you? ”

The man did not speak, but drew a sword from the oar in his hand, and was about to stab at Zhao Bohu. The sword wind had reached the tip of his nose, and he only heard a "whoosh" sound, and an arrow shot out of the cabin, hitting the shoulder of the ship's boss, and he had a painful expression on his face. Before Ji Duoyou could rush out, this person jumped into the river and never showed his head again.

"Are you alright?" Ji Duoyou helped Zhao Bohu and asked with concern.

"What about the prince?"

"I'm here." Ji Hu drilled out from behind Ji Duoyou: "Big Brother Duoyou is really powerful, every time there is a sound, he is a sword, and blood will flow out immediately." Those thieves are dead! ”

Zhao Bohu stared at them, his eyes full of helplessness: "Then this ship is about to sink!" ”

The sound of "coo-to-goo" kept coming from the cabin, which was like a fountain, and the river water kept gushing out of the piercing opening. In an instant, the water in the boat was no longer above the knees of the three men.

"Ziliang, will you be able to drink water?" Zhao Bohu asked loudly.

"I will."

"That's good," Zhao Bohu waded through the water with all his might, removed the nearest window door, and handed it to Ji Duoyou: "You let the prince lie on top and escort him to other boats." ”

"What about you?" Ji Duoyou and Ji Hutong asked.

Before he could finish speaking, the hull of the ship lost its balance and began to lean violently to one side. As soon as Zhao Bohu opened his mouth, a large mouthful of river water poured into his mouth, so that he could no longer say a word. He fell into the water like a weight, unwilling! He thought, "This is the first time I have received the king's order to go on an expedition, and I am going to die in Hanshui, and I don't even know who the enemy is?" Since I was a child, I have been determined to build an immortal cause and revive the prestige of the Zhou family, but did I die in such a daze? ”

He struggled to float to the surface to see if Ji Hu had floated on the window and had been rescued. But his body was so heavy that he kept sinking, and a few red wisps floated around him, fluttering in the water like silk threads. Turning his head again, several corpses spread their limbs and round eyes surrounded him in the middle, all of them were naked, and they seemed to be the shipwreckers who had just been poked to death by Tayou across the deck, and their appearance was very hideous and terrifying when they died. He was startled and choked on a few more mouthfuls of water------

The surrounding scene became more and more blurred, and gradually only darkness remained, and nothing could be heard in the ears, and consciousness gradually blurred------ could it really be that he died like this?

Zhao Bohu is no longer moving in the water, and his life is dying. Suddenly, there seemed to be a force behind him pushing him upward------

I don't know how long it took, Zhao Bohu spit out a large stream of water from his mouth and nose, and opened his eyes leisurely. In a trance, I saw a person desperately pressing his abdomen, it was a man, but his face was not clear, and there were tattoos on both arms.

"Who are you ------?" Zhao Bohu had exhausted all his strength to ask this sentence, but in fact, it still sounded like a gossamer to others.
