Chapter 163: South, Dock
Ye Lingwu didn't think much about it, and led Rongxiu back to the house.
It was completely dark, and most of the people in the building were ready to go to bed, when suddenly there was a loud 'bang' outside, and the entire water shook as it shook.
Ye Lingwu was writing a letter to his family, and he swayed several times, until he grabbed the table and stabilized himself, and then looked at the velvet show on the side.
- What happened?
Ye Lingwu hurriedly got up and pushed open the small window to look up, only to see a fire in the distance, a big ship broke through the darkness and approached as fast as possible.
Following the sound of feng shui, you can hear the man's rough shouting.
Ye Lingwu's little face turned pale.
If I'm not mistaken, I've encountered a water thief. However, the rivers in the southern region have always been peaceful, and it is impossible for there to be water thieves.
If it is a robbery, there are many merchant ships coming and going in this canal, but looking at the approaching speed of that ship, it is clear that it is coming at them!
Just then, a sharp whistle sounded from the side of the ship.
After a while, everyone left the house.
Ye Lingwu went towards Old Lady Shen's house, just in time to see Mama Xuan push open the door and come out of the house.
It was a mess outside, and Mama Xuan said calmly: "What happened just now, what happened outside?" ”
Ye Lingwu didn't dare to disturb people's hearts by talking nonsense, after all, there were a lot of martial servants and guards on the ship, and the water thieves couldn't tell who would suffer when they came. Yes, she replied with a stiff face: "I don't know, but there is a ship approaching, I will go and transfer two groups of martial maids now, Mama Xuan should enter the house quickly." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was another sway.
Screams rang out from inside the ship!!
Shen Yue'er led a few little female envoys to run out of breath, and the little female envoys were casual and shouted directly: "Mama Xuan, Miss Lingwu is not good!" It looks like a water thief is coming out there. ”
Hearing the sound, the boat instantly became a pot of porridge, and the maid who had never encountered a major event was frightened, and hurriedly looked for a place to hide.
Ye Lingwu looked back at Rong Xiu and couldn't help but tremble, patted her hand and comforted: "Don't worry, there are martial maids on our ship, and the guards are there." ”
Rongxiu nodded, her expression relieved.
"Panic!" Qin Mingyu walked quickly from the porch with a tall posture, and said with a straight face, "It's all quiet for me!" No one is allowed to run around! ”
In the end, the housewife has a deterrent power, this roar, the entire building boat instantly quieted down, and the little envoy who fled in all directions did not run away, but only dared to stand in place and tremble.
The ladies in the boat gathered in Mrs. Shen's house, waiting for news from outside, and soon the hull shook violently, but this time it was different, the left hull seemed to have been hit, the whole boat shook non-stop, and the seats and benches were turned over.
There was a faint sound of swords clashing outside.
Wu Wan hurriedly entered the house, hugged her fists and said: "Master, old lady, the water thieves outside are quite rampant, and they came here for a purpose, and Scholar Jiang said that we have to get off the boat immediately." ”
Qin Mingyu's hands holding the hand warmer were so tight that his fingertips turned white, and he stood up abruptly and said, "Get off the boat now?" But the ship hasn't docked yet, and there are so many luggage on board, how can it be ......"
Old Lady Shen twisted the Buddha beads and pondered, stood up with a solemn face, and interrupted: "Since Scholar Jiang said it, then do it, don't delay any longer, otherwise the water thieves will kill so many innocent girls on our ship." ”
There were twenty female envoys on the ship, and it was too eye-catching to act together, so Old Lady Shen and Qin Mingyu each took a part of the female envoys and girls to leave from the east side of the ship and the west side of the ship.
Thanks to the foresight of Mrs. Shen and Mama Xuan, Ye Lingwu specially picked an emergency boat when renting a ship, and went straight down to the bottom cargo hold along the east side and the west side of the ship.
Old Mrs. Shen and Mama Xuan are so old that Tanchun, Magpie, and the two little female envoys are still unable to move when they are supported left and right
In the midst of her own difficulties, Mrs. Shen did not forget to instruct: "What about Scholar Jiang?" Hurry up and ask Scholar Jiang to go with him. ”
The crowd was chaotic, and now going back was tantamount to sending them to death, and the female envoys were silent.
Ye Lingwu hurriedly pushed Mrs. Shen forward, and replied: "Old lady, don't worry about Scholar Jiang, just protect these little girls, there are martial guards in the bow of the boat, and there will be no major incidents." ”
"It's different." Old Lady Shen said with a straight face, "I'm afraid those people are not ordinary water thieves, how can he deal with them if he is powerless." ”
Ye Lingwu knew that she couldn't do it, so she asked the four little female envoys to help the old man continue to get out of the cargo hold, while she wanted to find a martial maid to go to the bow of the boat to find someone.
However, there were only a bunch of little female envoys around, and seeing them trembling with fear, Ye Lingwu was not easy to call, so he could only run towards the bow of the boat by himself.
