213 Chapter Ninety-Four: The Struggle for the Tide 02
Miao Fenxian refused to agree, anxious and angry, and said: "Let you start the boat tomorrow, we have to be two hundred steps away from you, isn't this to let you press all the way to the mouth of the Yangtze River?"
Chu Qingliu said: "After I stop the boat tomorrow, as long as you don't rush forward and want to stop in front of me, the day after tomorrow, you will start the boat first, how can I press you to the mouth of the Yangtze River? You are really thinking too much." ”
Xiong Laser said: "You can't count the ship today, and whoever likes to leave early tomorrow will leave early." The boat stops tomorrow night, and we'll take turns the day after tomorrow, okay?"
Chu Qingliu said: "No, if you don't come to discuss with me, then you can go how you like, I don't care." If you have come to consult with me, then come according to the rules, and you will have to count tonight. ”
Qu Dingxiang died newly, and the Yixue Hall lost its leadership, and it was extremely difficult to act. No one wants to compromise with outsiders, for fear of being called weak or even dissenting.
Yang Zhenshi said: "Chu Shaoxia, before tonight, let's start the boat again, but it has to be regarded as today's business, not tomorrow's sailing, so we don't have to be limited by this rule, don't you say?"
Chu Qingliu said: "Before midnight, it was naturally today, Yang Liuxia was really wise. Now that I have said it properly, I said goodbye to my junior sister. He said and returned to the ship.
At this time, it was nearly dark, and the Righteous Blood Hall transferred a large number of men from the ships in front, plus three large ships. Lighting the torches, each man took up his trousers and went down into the water, and with all his might, and with the help of the big boat, he finally pulled the boat out of the mud at half the hour of the second watch, and before midnight, they went down in a group. It's really very trustworthy, so far away that you can't see the lights at all.
Since the Yixue Hall has already taken this opportunity, how can it be willing to give it to others again? Naturally, the boat was stopped far away every day, and the boat set off early the next day, feeling that Qu Dingxiang had finally suppressed Wu Baoqi's head, and he was unexpectedly extraordinary from top to bottom.
Chu Qingliu's boat was behind, knowing that there was a ship in front of the Righteous Blood Hall, so he no longer hurried, but deliberately separated it out of his sight. The Yixue Hall deliberately slowed down the boat several times, wanting the boat to look good, but Chu Qingliu didn't know it, but he didn't intend to dodge, and honestly followed three hundred steps away.
The boatman had already figured out the grievances between the two families, and knew the temperament of Chu Qingliu and Qu Lingyu, and said with relief: "Master Chivalry, these barbarians still think they have taken advantage, but they don't know that they are sounding the gong for your master!"
Chu Qingliu was noncommittal, but Qu Lingyu was very happy to hear it, and ordered Yao Shun and the second maid to reward the silver again.
In this way, the boat traveled to Chuzhou safely and soundly, and the ship entered the grain river. This place is less than three hundred miles away from the helm of the Iron Boat Gang Yangzhou, and the Iron Boat Gang can be said to exist in name only, but there are still many remnants in the end. Qu Lingyu was worried, but it was inconvenient to mention it to Chu Qingliu, so he could only walk forward. Secretly hoping that the people of the Iron Boat Gang have been killed by Qi Lang Jieza, Kualalshan and others, and there is no one left, knowing that there is no such possibility, they can only use this to forgive themselves, and after a mile, they will be a mile.
On this day, the upstream town north of the boat stopped Baoying, got up early in the morning, finished breakfast, and was about to lift anchor and start the boat, when three horses came quickly on the embankment of the lower river. The rider seemed to be in such a hurry that he did not dismount, but rushed down the embankment. The merchants and servants on the embankment took refuge, and although no one was injured, they also stirred up the horses.
Walking to the water's edge, the first person threw the reins, straightened his clothes, and raised his voice: "Guo Jianming in Xiayangzhou City, boldly ask, is this the boat of the owner of Wanghai Zhuang Chu?" This person is less than thirty years old, and he is very shrewd and capable.
Chu Qingliu was standing on the bow of the boat with Qu Lingyu chatting, and all the situations were in his eyes. Hearing Guo Jianming's words, Chu Qing's face suddenly became black, his eyes were on fire, and his hand had reached out to his waist. Qu Lingyu was secretly happy in his heart, and said in his heart that Guo Jianming, who came from Yangzhou City, patted the horse on the horse's hooves. But he didn't say much, and waited to see how Chu Qingliu replied to this person.
Chu Qingliu calmed his anger and said, "This is the boat of the owner of Wu Zhuang of Wanghai Village, Your Excellency has recognized the wrong person." I'm going to sail now, so I can't talk to you more. He turned around and ignored it.
The boatman was very eye-catching, greeted several boatmen, and got busy with their work.
Guo Jianming hurriedly said: "Then are you Chu Qingliu Chu Shaoxia?"
Chu Qingliu said: "My name is Chu Qingliu, and I am not a young knight. I don't have any friends surnamed Guo in Yangzhou City, please go back. "It's a rejection of people thousands of miles away.
Guo Jianming said: "I am a member of the Iron Boat Gang, Chu ---" He can speak well, and Chu took a long time before he said: "Fourth Brother Chu, can you let me go on the boat?"
As soon as he said the words "Iron Boat Gang", Chu Qingliu no matter how angry he was in his heart, he couldn't look at each other anymore, and motioned to the boatman to postpone the boat.
Guo Jianming said: "I went to the boat, I just wanted to worship the old owner of Wu, and do a little bit of filial piety, there is no other meaning." "Don't dare to call the young man or the owner of the village anymore.
Qu Lingyu said angrily: "You are so stupid! You have to tell you clearly: Wanghaizhuang has always had only one Wu Baoqi Wu Zhuang owner, there are no old Zhuang owners, no young Zhuang owners, and no Chu Zhuang owners. You memorize this sentence first, and then talk about your business. ”
Guo Jianming said: "Who are you?" is very rude.
Qu Lingyu said: "I am me, I am not anyone." If you can find this ship, you should have known who I am. Knowingly asking, it can only appear that you are slippery. Let me ask you, have you done your filial piety before Qu Ding Xiangling? If you think about it and then reply to me, if you lie, I will know before dark. ”
Guo Jianming's face was embarrassed, and he said, "Fourth Brother Chu, are you really so ruthless?"
Chu Qingliu said: "My junior sister asked you, have you ever been to the ship of the Righteous Blood Hall? ”
Guo Jianming gritted his teeth and said, "I've been there." Qu Dingxiang has done evil things in his life, but he has also done good things. If he hadn't been there, the Chaos League would have gone to Jiangnan a long time ago, and for this alone, he would be worthy of me, a junior, to hang himself in front of the spirit. ”
Chu Qingliu said: "Anyone who has sacrificed Qu Dingxiang, don't think about coming to my ship again." Whoever he is, the Iron Ships are no exception. ”
Qu Lingyu asked Guo Jianming if he had ever been to worship on the ship of the Righteous Blood Hall, but he just saw that this person was untruthful, and then he thought about it, but he really didn't have any evidence. The Iron Boat Gang is like a lost leaf in the wind, like a person floating in the water struggling to ask for help, naturally he is sick and rushes to the doctor, burning incense in the temple in the east, and kowtowing in the temple in the west, a little more hope is a little hope.
The Yixuetang Brigade came south, and the four swords of Yixue were all in it, if it could please and please at this time, it would not be a bad thing, and it would only cost a few strings of paper money, a rush of tears, which can be said to be a very cost-effective deal. As long as they don't say it themselves, how can Chu Qingliu know?
Unexpectedly, Qu Lingyu didn't care about any embarrassment at all, and asked casually, just asking about his heart disease, and also led Chu Qingliu to say something that he refused ruthlessly.
Guo Jianming had nothing to do, he was annoyed and angry, and said, "Chu Qingliu, may I ask who raised you?"
Chu Qingliu said: "It's my father-in-law, Mr. Jiang Yuefu." He worked hard as a helper at Kua Chau Wharf to raise me. ”
Guo Jianming said: "At that time, you couldn't even walk, and who rescued you from White Horse Lake?"
Chu Qingliu said: "How can I not remember this? The first person to see me floating in the water with a gourd was the big man You Guinian You Uncle, and the one who went into the water to pick me up from the water was the small You Tongnian You Second Uncle." The two Uncle You are not small, and they are good at drinking and fun, so they will entrust me to my stepfather to raise. ”
"Uncle You died of drunkenness seven years ago, and Second Uncle You was killed by mistake and was imprisoned. It was my master who used the money to open the joints, rescued Second Uncle You, and took him to settle elsewhere. You don't have to know where to settle down. ”
Guo Jianming said: "Chu Qingliu, the kindness of the Iron Boat Gang to you, you can really push it all away in a few words?"
Chu Qingliu said: "It's not that I pushed it all out, it's that things are like this." ”
Guo Jianming said: "If there is no Iron Boat Gang, how can there be You Guinian and You Tongnian? Aren't you going to live to be two years old?"
Chu Qingliu said: "According to what you say, if there is no sage who created the boat, wouldn't there even be the Iron Boat Gang? If there were no people who dug the canal, wouldn't there be no Iron Boat Gang? I, Chu Qingliu, have been too miserable in this life, and I have to bear the love of so many people in such a short life of twenty years." ”
Qu Lingyu said: "You don't know what Chu Qingliu did for the Iron Boat Gang. If it weren't for Chu Qingliu, what would you still be shouting at the river? Looking at your style today, the vitality of the Iron Boat Gang should have recovered a lot, very good. ”
Guo Jianming said: "Chu Qingliu, if it weren't for the Chaos Alliance Qu Guanghan's father and daughter, but someone else, if you weren't infatuated with this Qu Lingling, would you still leave it like this?"
Chu Qingliu said: "I didn't let it go, but I didn't take care of it as you thought. In the near future, a batch of pension money will arrive, you should pay attention to check it, use it carefully, if there is any corruption and deduction, let me know, it will not be followed. That's all I can do, and I'm really going to leave it alone. As a person, the most unbearable thing is that someone is trying to hold me hostage, and I know what to do. You have repeatedly used the word "kindness" to persecute and urge, which is really my taboo. ”
Guo Jianming said: "If you do this, it is clear that you are emphasizing color and ignoring righteousness, and you will definitely be ridiculed by the people of the world!
Chu Qingliu said: "The ridicule has to be left to them to scold, and behind closed doors, there is still a lot of scolding the emperor." But I still have a face to live in the world, and I don't have to have a face to live in the world. Sail. ”
Guo Jianming saw that Chu Qingliu could even say this kind of thing, and knew that it was difficult to expect him to come forward to avenge the Iron Boat Gang, so he couldn't help but faint, and blurted out and scolded: "Chu Qingliu, you are a wolf and a dog----heart"
Before he scolded four words, Qu Lingyu wanted to jump up, not wanting that his left wrist had been captured by Chu Qingliu with one hand, and it would be difficult to break free. Chu Qingliu said with a smile: "There will definitely be more ugly words to scold in the future, you can't even listen to this, how can you be good in the future? ”
Guo Jianming saw that Qu Lingyu couldn't move, and the ship was already offshore, he couldn't help but be bold, and scolded: "You are ungrateful, hard-hearted, and forgetful, you don't even have a little human touch---
Qu Lingyu couldn't bear it anymore, took out the short sword in his arms, and slashed it at his left wrist without looking.
Chu Qingliu didn't feel embarrassed at all if he wanted to snatch her short sword, but he couldn't bear to look at her anymore and be embarrassed. As soon as the hand was sent, Qu Lingyu had already floated to the shore, and when he arrived, he had slapped Guo Jianming several times. These palms were strong and crisp, Guo Jianming swallowed half of his broken teeth with blood, and he couldn't say a word anymore.
Qu Lingyu scolded: "I won't scold people, I will only beat people, if you dare to scold again, I will dare to beat again." I'll see if scolding can scold the dead, or if beating can kill the dead. In the Iron Boat Gang, there may not be no one who should be killed, and when they come out to walk the rivers and lakes, no one can be much cleaner than others. If any of the money is wasted, I will kill one of you. Go back and learn from your new helper, don't miss a word. ”
A person behind Guo Jianming stepped forward and said, "This is our new gang leader." ”
Qu Lingyu said: "Gang Master Guo, you have to remember my words." ”
At this time, the ship was far from the shore, but Guo Jianming neither dared to fight back, nor dared to fight back, turned around with hatred, and got on the horse.
The boatman approached the boat again, stretched out the gangplank, Qu Lingyu stepped on the gangplank and got on the boat, still cursing in a low voice, where would he not scold, it was obvious that he did not want to scold the rough people.
Qu Lingyu hated and angered for a long time, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, they will definitely say that you have fallen for my trick again." ”
Chu Qingliu said: "What plan did you do?"
Qu Lingyu said: "Discord plan." To tell you the truth, just this morning, when you first saw the surname Guo, did you ever think that you would say it like this?"
Chu Qingliu smiled: "It turns out that this is a discord plan, I learned another plan." ”
