Seeing that the money bag was deflated day by day, but he had not yet left the jurisdiction of Anhuai Mansion, Shen Cuttlefish became more and more worried, and he didn't dare to imagine how he would live in the future. Could it be that the eldest young master of the Shen family, who is dignified, will eventually end up begging on the street one day and stretching out his hand to beg for money? He shook his head vigorously and patted his cheek again to sober himself up.

Seeing this scene, Bai Xingxian crossed his arms and sneered: "What? Are you still dreaming? Do you want Miss Ben to kick you into the river and wake up?" Shen Cuttlefish replied helplessly with a bitter face: "My eldest lady, can't you be nice to me?" You ride my horse and spend my money...... Bai Xingxian turned his head disdainfully, and saw that the fishermen had already untied the cable and boarded the boat, beckoned them to board, and stepped onto the fishing boat. Only the Shen cuttlefish was left confused and stood still.

The fishing boat of the fisherman can only carry three people at a time, and after everyone discussed, they agreed to send Shen Cuttlefish and Bai Xingxian to the other side of the river first, and then come back to pick up Pei Jingnian and Mingjue, and finally cross the two horses.

Shen cuttlefish stood at the bow of the boat, he was not used to taking the boat, he only felt dizzy, just drank the three bowls of fish porridge in the stomach turned over the river and the sea, hid in the cabin and grabbed the edge of the boat, stretched out his limbs, so as to stabilize himself. And Bai Xingxian sat on the bow of the boat, even if the wind and waves were turbulent, he didn't move at all, looked back at the Shen cuttlefish whose face was red and white, and scolded with a smile: "Useless things." ”

looked at this pair of happy enemies, they didn't give in to each other,-for-tat, but there was a slight change in their eyes. The old fisherman is also a person from the past, and when he sees it in his eyes, he understands it in his heart, but he doesn't want to say more. One by one, they supported the fishing boat and headed for the opposite shore. Along the way, Bai Xing Tears and Shen Cuttlefish didn't say a word more.

At this time, the sky was already bright, there were scattered pedestrians on both sides of the riverbank, hurrying with heavy burdens, there were two people dressed in coarse cloth clothes, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin, the thin and tall man still had a wisp of beard on his chin, and a bag on his shoulder, but his eyes kept glancing at the river, and the man on the left whispered: "Big brother, do you see if it is the white star tears?"

The person on the right, who was called the eldest brother, nodded slightly: "I have lived in the Anhuai Mansion for a period of time, and I have also heard a little about this young lady of the Bai family, she has good martial arts, arrogant and obedient, but she is jealous and hateful, and likes to act chivalrous and righteous. It seems to be a tough bone. The man on the left asked again: "Then what is the origin of that kid next to her? Could it be that Liu Lao Wu said that Pei Jingnian, the head catcher of Anhuai Mansion?"

"Hmph, definitely. The person on the right shook his head and said, "I have seen him, he is not Pei Jingnian, but the eldest son of the Shen family, one of the four great families of Anhuai Mansion." It seems to be called, Shen cuttlefish. ”

When the younger brother heard this, he pondered for a moment, and with a panicked face, he hurriedly pulled the eldest brother's shirt beside him and hurriedly said, "Big brother, isn't it the son of Shen Shujian, the white-headed sword idiot?" The eldest brother nodded slowly and said, "Yes." The younger brother was completely panicked, and was about to turn around and run away, but the eldest brother grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back: "Do you want to escape?

The younger brother explained with a slight cry: "Big brother, the father of the white star tears, Bai Yusheng, and Shen Shujian, the father of Shen Cuttlefish, are both famous desperate San Lang in the rivers and lakes, and their martial arts are extremely high, if we catch their children, won't we attract them to come to take revenge? Escape is death, if you don't escape, you will die, both horizontal and vertical are one death, it is better to go back earlier, ask the helmsman for guilt, and maybe save a life." ”

"You kid, you're always so reckless, you only know one thing, you don't know the other. You know that the Shen and Bai families are quite powerful, but you don't know the news you got yesterday, the Shen family in Anhuai Mansion was wiped out, and the head of the family, Shen Shujian, and the upper and lower martial arts servants, a total of seventy-one lives, all died at the hands of the Jianghu people, only this swinger who doesn't know martial arts, luckily left a life. Now that this Shen family has long ceased to exist, what is there to fear?"

The eldest brother chuckled disdainfully, and then said: "Moreover, that Bai Xing Tear has always been incompatible with his father Bai Yusheng, and Bai Yusheng has been retired to the rivers and lakes for many years, I don't expect him to act rashly, and with the current strength of the Bai family, he is not able to compete with the Whale Shark Gang." So it's just easy to catch a few of them. ”

When the younger brother heard this explanation, he felt that it made sense, nodded his head, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. The eldest brother's eyes drifted across the Qinling River again, squinting his eyes and looking at the other bank, only to see a woman in black and a bald monk standing in front of the black and white horses, so he said to the little brother beside him: "Look at the two people on the other side, although you can't see the face clearly, but the woman in black must be Pei Jingnian." ”

"Then how is this Pei Jingnian's martial arts?" asked the younger brother.

The eldest brother's expression was extremely complicated, and he sighed and said, "I don't know either. She has been working for the government all year round, although she has also hunted down many wanted criminals, but no one has seen her martial arts, because most of the people she has seen are dead. "Huh?" the younger brother's face changed suddenly when he heard this. The eldest brother continued: "But she can be the chief catcher of Anhuai Mansion, and she injured Liu Lao Wu, and her martial arts will never be low." ”

The little brother's heart that had just fallen instantly rose to his throat again, his mouth was slightly open and he couldn't speak, and his hand holding the package trembled a little. The eldest brother patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't panic, we have dozens of brothers in ambush on this riverbank, with swords and hidden weapons, why are you afraid of her and a woman?"

But the younger brother also poked his head to look at the other side, and asked in a low voice: "What is the origin of the monk next to Pei Jingnian?" Now the eldest brother is completely bottomless, and he doesn't know anything about the first time he left the White Horse Temple, so he doesn't know his details, so he can only deal with it casually: "It's just a monk, what's the fear? Are you still afraid that he is a monk, can he kill you?"

"And when are we going to do it?" asked the pudgy little brother, trembling. But the eldest brother is worthy of being the eldest brother, he is still calm, twisting his beard and squinting his eyes, and said: "Originally, according to what Liu Lao Wu said, he only needed to catch the white star tears and Pei Jingnian, but I didn't want them to go on the same boat, but now, only wait for the fishing boat to dock, wait for Pei Jingnian and the monk to reach the middle of the river, and then take down the white star tears on the shore first, and finally pinch Pei Jingnian, and wipe out the four of them!"

The little brother nodded heavily, pursed his lips again, and said, "Okay." The two deliberately slowed down and continued east along the riverbank. And Bai Xing, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, saw that the pedestrians on the bank of the river were still in a hurry, but he suddenly slowed down, his expression was strange, his pace was steady, and his arms were waving powerfully.

Bai Xing was vigilant, but she regarded herself as a very high martial artist, and she had a sense of arrogance, and she was still a little disdainful of these rivers and lakes, and she didn't expose them, she just wanted to see what tricks they could play. After a while, the fishing boat docked, and when Bai Xing walked off the boat with his head held high, Shen Cuttlefish slowed down for a while, and then leaned on the side of the boat and retched, before he staggered up and staggered off the boat.

Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground, Bai Xingxian stretched out a hand to support him, and Shen Cuttlefish, who was pale, thanked him with a wry smile: "Thank you......" Bai Xingxian complained angrily: "Tell me about you, a dignified seven-foot man, who can't ride a horse, can't ride a boat, can't do martial arts, can't write poetry and songs, can't do anything, and wants to go to the rivers and lakes to find an enemy for revenge, it's really a fool's dream." ”

Shen Cuttlefish just waved his hand, powerless to refute her taunt, just sat on the shore and secretly breathed in the cold and fresh air. Bai Xingxian stood beside him with a sword, but he never let down his vigilance. The fishing boat put down and the two of them turned back to the other side to pick up Pei Jingnian and Mingjue to cross the river.

But when Pei Jingnian stepped on the fishing boat, he tilted his head slightly, swept his eyes over the so-called "pedestrians" passing behind him, smiled softly, and sat cross-legged on the bow of the boat with his eyes closed. Mingjue also followed him and got on the boat, and also sat down cross-legged, holding the rosary in his hand, and never stopped chanting.

"The two of you sit firmly, the wind and waves are bumpy, be careful, be careful!" The kind old fisherman propped up the fishing boat, and Mingjue thanked him repeatedly, and prayed for the fisherman's family. When the fishing boat had already arrived in the middle of the Qinling River, Pei Jingnian suddenly heard a knocking sound, suddenly opened his eyes, and listened to the source of the movement.

Putting his ears close to the bottom of the boat, he realized that the voice came from the bottom of the boat, his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted: "It's not good! There are people under the boat!" As soon as the words fell, several rumbling noises broke out around the fishing boat, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, the momentum was monstrous, the water splashed, and the white waves rushed to the sky, and after the explosion, several columns of water burst out from the bottom of the Qinling River, lifting the fishing boat up several feet high, and overturning it, the poor old fisherman screamed, and fell into the splash, and disappeared.

Mingjue hung the rosary in his hand on his wrist, climbed the edge of the boat with both hands, and flew over to the bottom of the boat to stabilize his figure, and saw the old fisherman falling down, so he was about to reach out and pull it, but the fingertips of the two were just a slight rub, and the helpless old fisherman disappeared into the Qinling River. "Old man—" Mingjue failed to save the old fisherman, beat his chest, and fell to the bottom of the overturned boat and wailed.

The fishing boat was overturned and finally landed. And at the moment when the explosion sounded, Pei Jingnian flew up, dodged the impact of the water column, and also landed on the bottom of the boat, patted Mingjue's shoulder and hurriedly asked, "Little Master, what about the old man?" Mingjue pointed helplessly into the river and sobbed again. Pei Jingqing sighed and persuaded: "Don't be so sad, the old man is fishing, he must be familiar with the nature of the water, even if he falls in the river, he can save himself." ”

But as soon as he said this, a cloud of blood spread out of the clear water, staining the water around the fishing boats red. Seeing this scene, Bai Xing Tear on the bank of the river laughed instead of wanting to help. It's not that I'm laughing at the poor old fisherman and the crying Mingjue, but at Pei Jingnian's incompetence.
