Breeze and Water Pirates (Part I)

Xu Changan ran out, but he didn't know where to go.

Weicheng, a place he really wanted to go but couldn't go, he came out of there, so naturally he couldn't rule out the possibility of someone guarding there.

Not to mention Chang'an, everyone knows that Xu Changan is dead, what can he do in Chang'an?

Yuezhou City, he also thought about it, but as soon as he arrived at that place, he was afraid that he would think of that girl, and a lotus flower blooming on the white clothes on her chest would be vivid.

Xu Changan sighed, it seemed that there was nowhere to go.

In the big world, he felt dispensable for the first time, and for the first time he felt that he had nowhere to go.

When he was in Chang'an, the prince's mansion was lively, and now he walked alone, and when he looked up, he saw that the birds in the sky seemed to be alone.

He took Xiaobai to wander around aimlessly, Xu Changan followed Uncle Shi to the north and south since he was a child, naturally he would not be hungry, he would eat mountain delicacies when he met the mountains, and he would enjoy the river freshness when he went to the river. Eating wild fruits, drinking mountain springs, and carrying a big black sword that was blackened by Qi Fengjia.

Uninhibited, just a little lonely.

Xu Changan naturally couldn't all drill into the deep mountains and old forests, and when he passed by the town, he would always change into a green shirt and prepare a few pairs of straw sandals or cloth shoes. In just one or two months, from the end of summer to late autumn, Xu Changan has become a bearded man, but his face is still thin.

Xu Changan is a person who doesn't pay attention to appearance, and he has a beard just as a disguise, and he is often called an old man when he is only a weak crown.

After Xu Changan experienced several times being called uncle by a child in the year of dancing elephants (fourteen or fifteen years old), he simply kept his beard, and when he arrived in the town, he just changed his dirty clothes, bought a green shirt, washed himself carefully, and then began to wander aimlessly.

His life is naturally extremely tight, and the only silver left on his body has been deceived by Qi Fengjia, so he can only embarrass Xiaobai.

Xiaobai's life is extremely hard, other cats are masters, but it is different, it has to go out to make money to support Xu Changan, the master.

Every time Xiaobai goes to a town, he can always find a gambling ghost nest established by young people, Xu Changan has suffered a lot of losses these days because he has no silver taels, so he naturally doesn't dare to stop Xiaobai anymore, so he can only let Xiaobai go.

Every time Xiaobai wins money, Xu Changan will help it take a bath at most. As for the silver two, naturally all of them went to the pocket of Xu Changan, the "master".

If he lost, Xiaobai would play tricks, secretly hide a part of the silver taels, and then run out.

If it was before, Xu Changan would still control one or two, but now, Xu Changan just scolded Xiaobai a few words, but he was very honest in his hands. However, Xu Changan is not greedy, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will only leave the amount of silver that can buy clothes and live in the cheapest store, and the extra will be quietly used to help the lonely elderly or homeless children before leaving the town.

Of course, when I am hungry, I will buy two pots of wine to drink.

One person and one cat walked and stopped, from the end of summer to the late autumn. They live in the rivers and lakes, although they are not rich, but they are also at ease.

Slowly, the two didn't know how many miles they had walked, and they didn't know where they had gone.

I saw that the high mountains and dangerous peaks were all overhead, the dense forests were layered on top of each other, and when the wind blew, it was like a green wave coming.

Xu Changan climbed two mountains, looking at the river course with nine bends and eighteen bends below and the towering mountains in front of him, Xu Changan sighed, went down the mountain, and prepared to take a boat forward.

Although it is said that it is Xiaobai who supports the family, Xu Changan is also its mount, whether it is up the mountain or down the river, it lies on Xu Changan's shoulder.

Xu Changan went down the mountain and found the ferry, what made him happy was that there was a shop next to it, although the store was small, but the flag was fluttering, attracting guests, and the aroma of wine at the door was also very attractive.

Xu Changan swallowed his saliva, touched his pocket, and actually had some broken silver, so he walked into the store with Xiaobai.

At this time, there were not many people, but there were two or three tables. Xu Changan saw that there was chicken, so he ordered a chicken and asked for two pots of wine.

When the wine and food are served, Xu Changan holds the wine jug, Xiaobai jumps on the table and eats chicken, if Xiaobai is happy, he will leave a chicken leg for Xu Changan, if he is not happy, he will eat it all.

Anyway, it's all the money it makes, and it's right to eat more.

The shopkeeper originally had some opinions, but for the sake of the silver, he didn't say anything, and the silver was the master, and it was his freedom to eat whoever he wanted.

Xu Changan drank wine, slightly drunk, and smelled of alcohol, but his head was still sober.

Xiaobai jumped on Xu Changan's right shoulder, rubbed it on his right shoulder, wiped his oil-stained mouth clean, and then jumped on his left shoulder again, lying quietly.

Xu Changan didn't care about these small details, and staggered towards the ferry.

A captain had already stopped at the ferry, and the boat was not big enough to accommodate more than ten people.

Xu Changan staggered to the front of the father-in-law, the father-in-law was a little old, the beard was gray, he glanced at Xu Chang'an, who was carrying a strip wrapped in linen, looked at his face full of beard, and said with some worry: "Brother, you are drunk on the boat, if something happens, the little old man is not easy to explain, otherwise, you go to the grass to lie down for an hour, and then go on the next trip." ”

Xu Changan smiled and said: "Don't mind, uncle, I just drink some wine on my face, and I won't do anything, as long as you give me a small corner, I can sit and close my eyes and squint for a while to ensure that I am fine." ”

Although Xu Changan's face has changed, his voice is extremely young, the old man looked at him, the passengers who made an appointment today were already dissatisfied, gritted his teeth, and he still decided to let this bearded man get on the boat.

"Let's talk about it first, what is your name, if you make a mistake while you are drunk on the boat, it is a matter of life and death for more than a dozen people, I will not be polite, I will just throw you into the river, and take care of your own life and death. Even if you really die, I know your name, go to the state capital of Jingmen Prefecture to report, bring witnesses, and I can't bear any responsibility. ”

Xu Changan just heard others ask him what his name was, and as for the rest of the words, he didn't hear them clearly, and he didn't care.

He looked at the river and was suddenly stunned.

"Hey, what's your name?"

The old man asked again, Xu Changan came back to his senses, he came all the way, few people would ask him what his name was, and when the old man asked, he remembered that he seemed to have no name.

"Xu ......"

"Xu An. ”

The captain took half a step back and said solemnly: "I thought you were going to say that you were loyal to Xu Chang'an, I almost knelt for you!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone on the boat also laughed, and handed Xu Changan a few points of vigilance.

Xu Changan quickly figured out his father's intentions and glanced at him gratefully.

"Remember, don't make a mess, go up quickly. ”

Xu Changan smiled when he heard this, got on the boat, found a back seat and sat down, leaned on the bed, and closed his eyes.

Soon, the boat began to leave, Xiaobai was a little scared, and didn't dare to lie on Xu Changan's shoulder, lying tightly on his lap.

Because the old man had just made a joke on himself, this group of people saw Xu Changan with his eyes closed, and they let down their guard against this "drunk".

They chatted along the way, all talking about how loyal and righteous Xu Changan was, and some of the plots made Xu Changan dumbfounded, and those plots were made up with heads and brains, comparable to legends.

The last few people seemed to be arguing, and Xu Changan was a little speechless with his eyes closed.

In the end, he still figured out that some scholars from Jingmen Prefecture were stranded in Chang'an, and when they heard about Xu Chang'an, they made it into a story and asked the major bookstores to sell it and make some money.

Originally, this was understandable, but someone saw that others were making money by doing this, so they also wrote Xu Changan.

They are all ordinary people, and some things naturally can't be understood very clearly, so they make them up at will, and even some books even make up Xu Chang'an's real surname Xuanyuan, who is the illegitimate son of the Holy Emperor, and also provides some corroboration.

Xu Changan listened to these stories, such as his four-cornered love with the eldest prince, Chai Xintong and Fan Jiuxian, etc., which made Xu Changan a little crying and laughing.

It was quite easy along the way, and Xu Changan didn't make trouble.

"Sit tight, after the most urgent place in the Jingmen River, you will enter Jingmen Prefecture, be careful!"

The captain glanced back at everyone and said with a smile.

Then he skilfully slid the oars, and he could see that the river in front of him suddenly became turbulent and a little yellow. On both sides of the river, there are mountains and mountains, and there is no road to walk at all, and when you look up, you can only see goats on the cliffs, and occasionally you can hear a few ape cries.

At this moment, the hull of the ship suddenly shook, and the captain's face changed, and he hurriedly shouted: "The fish gave it, the fish gave it, there are no fish in this pool!" ）

Hearing this, several strangers didn't know what to do, and Xu Changan also opened his eyes.

No matter how the captain shouted and rowed the oars, the boat would not move.

Not far ahead, the river became turbulent, but here, the boat could not move.

Suddenly several heads appeared in the river, all of them wearing cyan turbans, soaked in the water and glowing in the sun, like the heads of catfish.

"This pool is beautiful or not, we have eyes! It's hot, my brothers took the bait to find fish! I lost a golden carp, my brothers have to explore it carefully, don't worry, it's not a golden carp, we don't want it!" (black dialect interpretation: We have the final say on whether there is wealth here, today our brothers are here just to find a big customer, a boss wants a person, we want to see if there is that person on your boat, don't worry, find out the identity, let you go!)

"There are no golden carp, it's all blueheads!" the captain shouted loudly, but the dozens of people who suddenly appeared in the water did not care at all, raised their hands, and showed the captain the net in his hand. (Black dialect interpretation: there are no rich people, all poor people)

One of them jumped onto the boat and took the oars, while the rest remained in the water, fearing that someone would jump into the water and escape.

In this way, everyone fell into the hands of this gang of water thieves.

The rest of the people were uneasy, Xu Changan thought about it, closed his eyes, and still didn't make a move.

Although he has some water nature, he is naturally inferior to these water thieves, and he also knows some of the rules of the river. The so-called thieves also have a way, as long as the captain gives the monthly money, these water thieves will not touch the guests of the captain again, they would rather break the rules to find that person, Xu Changan has no goal anyway, with his cultivation of returning to the peak of the mastery, killing a few water thieves is more than enough to save these lives!

So, he suddenly became curious to see who this water thief was looking for!
