Chapter 9 of the Heavenly Machine Chapter 86 The folk customs are simple
Su Wangting said helplessly: "Uncle, can you stop selling Guanzi?" Isn't the Silla folk custom very simple? ”
The old fisherman grinned again when he heard this, only said "follow me", and walked to the beach on his own.
Su Wangting followed diligently.
But when he saw this uncle on a small sampan, he was stunned.
"Uncle, you're going to use this little sampan out... Sea?? When did the Silla folk style become so strong? ”
The old fisherman waved angrily: "If you don't go, then you will honestly wait at the dock for a month." ”
"Don't mind, I'll do it." Su Wangting couldn't do it, so he had to jump on the sampan.
After the sampan traveled for a while, Su Wangting understood why the old man dared to use the sampan to go to sea.
It turned out that it was just a boat that was clinging to the coastline.
Along the shallow sea on land, the sampan is indeed sufficient.
After about ten miles east along the coastline, the coastal beaches gradually disappear and are replaced by steep cliffs.
After walking along the cliff wall for another three miles, I saw that the coastline suddenly recessed into a large area, forming a large bay surrounded by walls on three sides.
And in the middle of this bay lies a large brig.
At this time, the old fisherman stopped his sampan, pointed to the sailboat and said with a smile: "Look, this big ship, no matter how strong the wind and waves are at sea, you are not afraid." ”
Su Wangting asked, "This ship... Heading to Kyushu? ”
The old fisherman laughed and said, "This ship is not only going to Kyushu, but a month ago, it should have set sail for Kyushu." ”
"Then why stop here for a month and not leave?"
The old fisherman pointed to the sea directly opposite the mouth of the bay: "Look. ”
Su Wangting squinted, and could faintly see several dhows parked on the sea surface in the sea fog, and when he looked closely, it seemed that the unraised canvas under the mast was black.
"What are those ships??"
"The boats have been there for a month, too."
"Huh?" Su Wangting raised his eyebrows, "These two sides are looking at each other from a distance, what about playing?" ”
"Definitely." The old fisherman shook his head and stuffed tobacco into the smoke pot of the dry tobacco stick, "Those black sailing boats deliberately blocked this big ship and prevented it from going to sea, and this confrontation has been going on for more than a month. ”
"Why is that?"
The old fisherman grinned: "So, it depends on whether you, a young man, have the ability to let this big ship set sail and sail to Kyushu." ”
Su Wangting squinted at the old man in front of him and asked, "You... Why are you so enthusiastic about finding people to help this big ship get out of trouble? ”
The old fisherman took a puff of dry tobacco and said quietly: "Because there is a cook woman on that big boat, who is my favorite, hehe." ”
When Su Wangting heard this, his feet slipped and he almost turned into the sea.
"You still have a good relationship on your neck!? You're not serious!! ”
The old fisherman's eyes were crossed: "What are you talking about!" The old man is only in his early fifties, and the sea breeze has been blowing all year round, so he looks older!! ”
"Then you're only in your early fifties, what kind of old man do you call yourself!!"
"Looks steady!"
“……”
It turned out that this big ship was full of singers from Silla who wanted to go to Kyushu to perform their arts.
Silla singers are popular in Kyushu restaurants for their unique singing voice and gentle temperament. And the price of their appearance is also very expensive, and most of them are enjoyed by the upper class.
A merchant surnamed An in Silla sniffed the business opportunity and spent a lot of money to build this comfortable and luxurious galleon, which was specially used to travel between Kyushu and Silla, and did the business of transporting singers back and forth.
These singers can easily earn a hundred taels of gold in Kyushu a year, so no matter how high the boat fee is for this boss An, they are not stingy at all and never bargain.
Therefore, Boss An's business is quite profitable, and the money comes easily, and within two years, the cost of building this ship will be repaid.
But this time, Boss An fell into blood mold.
was actually targeted by the Black Jiao Gang, the largest gang on the water on the south coast of Silla, no, people didn't get on the boat to rob or kill people, so they did it for more than a month, and they didn't let people get off the boat.
It is the first two big ones that make Boss An worried.
The reason for this is that it turned out to be the boss of the Black Jiao Gang, who fell in love with a singer on this ship.
But this singer disliked that the Black Jiao Gang was a group of vulgar pirates, and let the boss spend a lot of money, so he didn't take it seriously, and then the singer couldn't bear to be disturbed, so he intended to go to sea and wanted to go to Kyushu to hide.
Unable to beg for it, the boss of the Black Jiao Gang stopped the big ship and forced it to stop in this bay.
Don't you say we're vulgar?
That's fine.
Then our Black Jiao Gang is just like this, and they don't act rudely or threaten, they just say that when the singer promised the boss, he will let the boat go to sea.
Moreover, no one was allowed to get on or off the boat, and their people were watching from the cliffs on three sides of the bay.
Boss An sent this singer to kneel and kowtow for this matter.
But the more she asked, the more angry the singer became.
simply gritted his teeth, and let the boss of the Black Jiao Gang die, if he wanted to stop it, it would be consumed to the end, even if he died on the ship, it would not fulfill his wish.
No, more than a month has passed since the bite of this silver tooth.
Hearing this, Su Wangting bowed slightly: "It turned out to be for a woman." Hehe, just like that Bai Jingxing, they are all angry and red-faced. ”
"How? Do you have what it takes to let this ship go to sea? The old fisherman laughed dryly.
Su Wangting spread his hands: "You mean, let me go talk to those pirates?" ”
The old fisherman shook his head: "Pirates have always acted arbitrarily and arbitrarily, and they do not listen to persuasion. Just afraid, talking, is useless. ”
"Oh? That's for me to fight? ”
"Hehehe, that's why the old man asked you in this future life, do you have the ability to let this ship set sail."
Su Wangting pouted and shook his head.
The old fisherman hurriedly asked, "Do you refuse, or do you not have that ability?" You must know that a discerning person knows at a glance that the pirates are bullying these weak women, and helping these women can be regarded as chivalrous and righteous. ”
Su Wangting sneered: "You just said that the boss of the Black Jiao Gang has spent a lot of money on that singer's head?" ”
The old fisherman nodded: "Yes." I heard that she had been pestering the woman for more than a year, and the silver cost three or five thousand taels. ”
"If this singer has no interest in this person, why does he repeatedly accept money from others?? This only collects money and doesn't give face, I'm afraid it's not in line with the rules of Fengyue places, right? Since he is disgusted with this person, then this singer should have had no money in the morning, and no one was seen, so he broke off his thoughts as soon as possible. This only collects money and doesn't give face, what does it mean?? Wronged, huh? I'm also very angry if I change me!! In my opinion, this singer is not a good thing either. Hmph, it's still the old saying, wow, the drama is ruthless and unrighteous, don't take the things on the scene seriously......"
"This ......" the old fisherman was speechless.
"But I really don't have the temperament to wait at the dock for a month." Su Wangting scratched his head, turned his head and looked back and forth at the ships on both sides, "Tsk... Troublesome. ”
"If you don't, we'll go back to the docks." Saying that, the old fisherman made a gesture to shake the pulp, and his face was full of displeasure.
Su Wangting stopped him and asked with a smile, "That old friend of yours is very important to you?" In my opinion, if it's a dew relationship, forget it, just don't meddle in this matter. ”
"Whew! What a dewy affair! The old fisherman immediately became angry, shook off Su Wangting's hand and continued to shake the pulp, "She has been widowed for many years, and she has raised the baby with hard work, and she is a good woman; My wife also left early, and she took pity on me for being a rough old man who was alone and embarrassed, so she often helped me wash my clothes and quilts, and sent me some delicious meals. Last year, the children of our two families agreed that we would go together and do things when we returned from this trip. Hey, after more than ten years of love, how can I watch her trapped on that ship. ”
"Don't get excited, don't get excited." Su Wangting stopped his shaking hand again, "I said, since this ship has been trapped for a month, you have been looking for suitable people at the docks to help them get out of trouble?" ”
The old fisherman nodded: "Half a month ago, there were three people, and they were also going back to Kyushu, and I saw that they were wearing weapons like you, so I begged them to help." ”
"And then?"
The old fisherman picked up the dry tobacco stick and said quietly: "It's useless! Before he could get close to the big ship, he was killed by the arrows of the Black Jiao Gang guarding the cliff. Feed the fish went. ”
When Su Wangting heard this, his feet slipped again.
"Good fellows! Are you gambling with the lives of our Kyushu people? ”
The old fisherman squinted and said, "Take what you need." Why don't you go back to the dock and wait for the boat? ”
"Hey! No rut, no rut! Su Wangting looked up to the sky and sighed, shaking his head again and again, "Okay, then I'll go to the meeting for a while to see if I can help the ship get out of trouble." ”
The old fisherman was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?" Will you go directly to the Black Jiao Gang's boat, or will you? ”
"Let's go to the big ship and inquire about the specific situation first."
"Okay!!"
After speaking, the old fisherman pulled out a shield from under his ass and covered himself.
Su Wangting was stunned: "What are you?" ”
"When you get near, the people on the top of the cliff will fire arrows. Old man, this is called being prepared! ”
"What about me!!"
Behind the shield, Yu Yu said, "Then it depends on whether you have the ability or not." ”
"Old man, isn't the folk customs of Silla simple anymore!?"
"As long as I am peaceful, the old man will not be so simple!!"
“……”
The old fisherman held a shield in his left hand and shook the pulp violently with his right hand, as if he was afraid that Su Wangting would change his hexagram.
Su Wangting looked at the old man's one-handed high-frequency shaking action, and secretly said that this person was indeed not lying.
Sure enough, my wife died early!!
The small sampan was splashed by the waves he swayed, and the sampan rushed towards the big ship.
"Old man, don't worry, I can't run at sea!! Don't bother your arms!! ”
"Be careful, the arrow is coming!!"
Su Wangting turned his head to look, and sure enough, more than ten black arrows shot from the top of the cliff!!
"Snatch, snatch ......"
Three arrows, nailed to the old fisherman's shield.
"It's dangerous, it's dangerous,......" the old fisherman poked his head out from behind his shield and breathed a sigh of relief.
But when he saw Su Wangting with his back to him, he was stunned.
I saw Su Wangting standing motionless at the bow of the boat, and two arrow feathers were faintly visible from behind him.
"Did you get an arrow in the chest? Ay. The old fisherman put his shield on his head again, and shook his pulp silently, ready to turn the sampan around, "It seems that this person is useless, so let's go back to the dock and have a look." ”
"Your uncle's !!"
Suddenly there was a roar, and the old fisherman trembled with fright, and almost tumbled into the sea.
poked his head out and looked, only to see Su Wangting holding two broken arrows in his hands, pointing at the top of the cliff and shouting.
"What kind of hero is a cold arrow!! Is it true that the folk customs of Silla are no longer simple!! Have the ability to come down and speak!! ”
The old fisherman was dripping in cold sweat, and secretly said that this person might have found the right one.
There is another sentence, which he also secretly said in his heart.
"The style of your uncle, is the style of your Kyushu simple?"
