Chapter 13, The Swordsman on the Ship

The wind on the river surface did not blow very quickly, carrying the cold air on the river surface, and drilling into the body along the gaps in the hair.

The boy's scattered hair was raised high in the wind, and he couldn't help but shiver at first, and then his body began to fall into a restless trembling.

He stood behind the railing, with an empty deck behind him, so he could clearly feel the force of the wind.

His two hands gripped the beam in front of him and leaned out halfway out. The big boat moved pointlessly in the river, smashing the protruding sharp stones, and the hull of the ship shook and fell, and his body shook like fallen leaves.

Then he saw that the body lying on the stone was also shaking. The roaring river, engulfing his legs, was pulling him little by little towards the bottomless abyss.

The young man had a look of impatience on his face. A strange emotion rose in his heart, and this idea that came from nowhere drove him to shout to the middle-aged man behind him, who was as strong as an ox, "Daddy." He swallowed a mouthful of spit, his body almost fell off the boat, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and he continued to call, "You have to find a way! ”

The middle-aged man stood on the wooden deck with his feet standing still, as if a nail had been stuck in the door.

He hugged a pair of arms, a knife was caught under his armpit, and he had a grim face. At the sound of his son's shouts, he reluctantly glanced down at the bow of the ship.

Suddenly, he saw a boulder rising in front of him, and he couldn't help but worry about the fate of the ship. Although he knew the craftsmanship of large ships inside out, the heavy metal on the bow was enough to crash through much larger rocks.

But he was still worried.

"Leave him alone. After a moment of silence, the man said lightly, "There is something more important worth doing!" and as he spoke, he slowly turned around, and in front of him was a gorgeous and huge cabin.

At this moment, the flag on the mast fluttered in the wind, making a crackling sound like a flame.

The hatch was tightly locked.

His gaze seemed to be able to easily see through the cracks in the wood, and he could clearly see what was happening in the cabin.

On a large comfortable chair wrapped in tiger skin, a man with a fierce face was deeply trapped at this moment. In his two arms, which were as thick as the forelimbs of a beast, he hugged two stunning beauties.

Dressed in light leno skirts, they wiggle their plump asses, show their open breasts in front of the man, and occasionally pour delicious grapes and sweet wine into his mouth. And his hand kept roaming over their bodies, occasionally pinching them, startling a certain woman to scream.

"Daddy!" the young man shouted in his throat, interrupting the middle-aged man's conjecture, "Didn't you say that in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, there are things to do and things not to do." The boy looked at the corpse on the stone as it looked more and more shriveled in the sunlight.

"That's no. The middle-aged man was unmoved.

Lu Qianyu looked at the shadow of the big boat approaching him, and he heard the shout of the young man brought by the wind, "That person, is he really dead?"

"I'm not dead!" Lu Qianyu made a sound from his throat, and he wanted to say, "I'm still alive." I live for revenge. But his voice fell into the river several times, drowning in its rage.

His lips twitched, tasting the fishy smell of the river. He raised a hand and swayed it in the air like a dead branch.

"Alive. The young man suddenly smiled, and he said, "Daddy, that man still has a breath." With that, the boy jumped over the railing, plunged headlong into the river, and disappeared.

The middle-aged man remained unmoved, and he sighed softly until the boy's head came to the surface and swam towards the stone like a duck.

Lu Qianyu only felt that a small hand was holding his arm. Then, a long-awaited immature face appeared in front of him, his smile was like a cracked flower, and the water dripping from his forehead was on his face.

"Daddy. The boy crouched on the rock, turned his head and shouted to the big boat, "Help me." ”

Then, a rope was thrown off the boat.

Lu Qianyu felt that his body was being bound by the person in front of him. Then he fell back into the water, drank a few large mouthfuls of water, and just as he was about to suffocate to death, his head was the first to rise to the surface, and then he climbed up the boat steadily, and he was farther and farther from the beast under the water.

After some tossing, he passed out.

When he woke up, it was pitch black.

A dark blue ghostly fire suddenly appeared in the darkness and flew towards him.

He touched his side alertly, and caught a handful of hay, so he grabbed another handful, which was a blanket.

He didn't find the broken sword with him. Seeing the blue ghost fire getting closer and closer, he was so nervous that he couldn't breathe, and he sat up in an instant.

At this time, it was the slightly immature face that greeted him, and I saw that he was holding a dim horse lamp in his hand, which was emitting a blue halo outside.

"Awake?" With the help of the faint light, the young man looked at the man in front of him suspiciously, his series of agile movements just now were really amazing, not at all like a dying man.

"You're badly wounded, and my dad said, it's a miracle that you survived!" the boy continued.

"Who are you?"

Lu Qianyu recalled that he was saved by the person in front of him!

So, he let his guard down. His hand was still groping for the broken sword in the haystack.

In the meantime, the waves on the surface of the water constantly washed over the hull of the boat, making a rhythmic sound, and the smell of hay and mold was thick around it.

Then he thought that he might be on a fast-moving ship, and here was its bottom cabin.

No doubt.

This is the great ship he saw!

For the rest of his life, he temporarily found a place to live.

Lu Qianyu found a reason to relax his body and mind.

"Don't be nervous!" the boy hung the lantern on the pillar, and said with concern, "You're lucky to have met me." No, it's my dad!" he scratched his hair, "it's my dad who gave you gold sore medicine, not me." The boy turned and began to stare at him again.

Lu Qianyu could also see his face more clearly.

He was a young man of about thirteen or fourteen, with a fuzzy beard on his chin, and his eyes were large, blazing, like those of a wolf in the light of candles. His hair was shaggy and he wore a large tunic that did not fit properly, revealing his slender neck. He wore a thin black belt around his waist, and a knife magazine pinned to it, and a shining gem on the hilt. He was crouched in front of him, and he could still tell that he was not tall.

"My..." Lu Qianyu stopped talking, arched his hand, and said: "Thank you so much, the grace of saving your life, it is difficult to repay it." ”

"Are you looking for your weapon?" the young man sneered, "My father said that in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, there are things to do and things not to do. As he spoke, the young man magically took out Lu Qianyu's broken sword and the wine gourd of the waves.

"My name is Knife. The young man enthusiastically stretched out a hand, Lu Qianyu saw that there were a lot of vicissitudes on the back of the hand, and then the young man turned to a fist and asked, "You are covered in injuries, but are you being chased and killed?"

"That's so!" Lu Qianyu nodded unabashedly. Then he laughed miserably and said, "I thought I was dead." ”

"Hades, I probably don't want to take you!" said the boy.

Then, Lu Qianyu's wound began to hurt again, and he moved and sat down leaning on the cabin.

He asked, "You saved me, aren't you worried about getting involved in right and wrong?"

My dad said. The young man sat on the ground, and he changed his words, "No, this is what I said! In the rivers and lakes, where can you tell the truth from wrong!"

Ahem, ahem!

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of hoarse and not hoarse, heavy and not heavy coughs came from the darkness, "Knife, you're talking nonsense again!"

"Daddy. The knife stood up, "Isn't what I said wrong? Saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter!"

After he finished speaking, a tall figure stepped out of the darkness.

Lu Qianyu struggled to get up, only to hear him say, "Don't move, I saved you, but I don't want you to die on this ship!"

"My name is Lu Qianyu!" Lu Qianyu still stood up, he clenched his fists and said: "Hero, I don't thank you for saving your life, just wait for the next day to repay the two." ”

"Hmm!" The man nodded, "Didn't my son say that the affairs of the rivers and lakes are something to do, I will save you, and you and I are destined, and I have never thought of asking for a return!" After speaking, he handed over a beautiful small porcelain vase, "You can recuperate with peace of mind and leave early, this is not a place for you to stay for a long time." ”

Lu Qianyu took the porcelain vase, and he thought that it might contain healing medicine. At that moment, he froze, couldn't say a word, didn't know what to do for a while, his heart was mixed, he and the two of them were unknown, how could he receive this favor?

After a while, he squeezed out a few words from his mouth, "Dare to ask, hero daimyo?"

"What about the daimyo?" the man said in a soothing tone, calmly, "The little knife is my son, and I am the old knife." ”

"Old knife senior!" Lu Qianyu bent down and saluted, he felt the wounds in his abdomen burst one by one, he endured the severe pain, and said: "I am the young master of the Lu family in Linzhou City, the traitor harmed my whole family's life, and hurt me so far, when I succeed in revenge, I will definitely repay you a thousand times, ten thousand times." ”

"Then I wish you a speedy battle against the enemy. The old knife frowned, the white young man in front of him seemed to be weak, but he was stubborn by nature, especially the pain to the bones, how could ordinary people stand it, and he didn't change his face, and he was a good man on the rivers and lakes. So, after being surprised, he smiled and said: "I will come from the rivers and lakes, go to the rivers and lakes, if we can see you again in the future, it means that fate is the case, and I will gladly accept your reward." ”

Hearing what the other party said, Lu Qianyu felt better in his heart. He met with the two fathers and sons in front of him, and was fortunately rescued by them, otherwise he would have drowned in the river, so what kind of revenge plan can he talk about? This is the grace of recreating life, no matter how to repay it in the future, it is nothing more than that, as the so-called, the person who is a confidant dies, even if he sacrifices his life, what does it matter?

"At the ends of the earth, it is really fate to be able to meet here. Lu Qianyu was full of emotion, he continued: "Old knife senior, dare to ask, where does this ship lead?" He was thinking about revenge, and the life and death of the wandering stone weng were uncertain, and he didn't know where he was, how could he let himself float in the river like a duckweed?

"Go down the river to Dongqiu!" said Xiao Dao Lang Lang, and then, the old knife interrupted him.

Hugh said nonsense. ”

The old knife was affectionate and dim, and seemed very displeased, and he glared at the knife.

"That's right, since we are destined, there is no need to hide it. He explained to Lu Qianyu, "We are scattered people in the rivers and lakes, we like to travel around, and we were about to go down to the Central Plains a few days ago, so I begged for a job along the way, protected an employer, and went to Dongqiu." ”

Lu Qianyu's eyes were like torches, and he had already seen from the ordinary and simple outfits of the old knife and the knife that they were not the owners of this ship.

However, he didn't want to know who the employer was, he said: "Senior Dao and Brother Xiaodao, the two of you can stay under the cabin for one night and heal me, which is already a great kindness, and I, Lu Qianyu, are grateful." ”

"Brother Gongzi, are you all so greeting?" Xiao Dao stood aside, pouted and said, "Thank you for the long, thank you for the short, it sounds awkward!"

"Oh?" Lu Qianyu was puzzled for a moment.

"It's fate!" Knife explained, "Fate is very delicate, and he made us friends. ”

"Oh!" Lu Qianyu smiled, "Thanks to the love of the knife brothers, I will be very honored to be friends with the two of you." ”

"Hey!"

At this moment, the door to the bilge at the bottom of the ship was opened, and a sailor with a lantern stepped down, and he shouted to the three people: "Knifeman, and that guy who I don't know who, the boss let you pass." ”
