Chapter Ninety-Six: The beach is dangerous and thrilling

In fact, Zhang Xiaochuan was in someone else's house, and the food was tasteless, during this time he was used to having Li Xueyao with him, to be precise, he was also used to accompanying Li Xueyao. Being carefree with her, simple and happy, Zhang Xiaochuan thinks of ways to make her happy, she is happy, he is also happy, there is a kind of comfort in his heart, there is a kind of contentment, and there is a faint taste of happiness.

However, this time was spent like this, most of the day was spent in eating and socializing, and there was no shadow of Li Xueyao, so Zhang Xiaochuan was not in a hurry. Finally survived the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Zhang Xiaochuan refused all the invitations, said to the villagers that he was about to leave, thanked the people, said sorry, everyone had to give up, Zhang Xiaochuan began to plan for the future.

Zhang Xiaochuan called Li Dachun, Zhang Fang and Li Xueyao together, and they also understood that Zhang Xiaochuan was going to say goodbye to them, because Qingshuixi had spread the news that Zhang Xiaochuan was leaving, and Li Xueyao's eyes were already red. Zhang Xiaochuan opened his mouth and said that during his time in Qingshuixi, he lived a leisurely and happy life, thanks to the care of their family, Zhang Xiaochuan sincerely expressed his gratitude to them. Suddenly, Zhang Xiaochuan changed his words and said, "There is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, Uncle Li, Aunt Li, Sister Xue Yao, I will leave Qingshuixi tomorrow." Everything was expected, Li Xueyao's eyes were moist. Li Dachun said to Zhang Xiaochuan, "If you don't have anything to do, just stay for a while." His words were sincere and brief, Zhang Xiaochuan shook his head, Li Xueyao looked at Zhang Fang, her eyes were anxious and expectant, how much she wanted Zhang Fang to come forward to keep him for a longer period of time. But Zhang Fang didn't keep it, but her words surprised and surprised Li Xueyao. I only heard Zhang Fang say, "Xiaochuan, you can take Xue Yao with you!"

Hearing this, Li Xueyao was inexplicably surprised, but she was overjoyed in her heart. Li Dachun was puzzled, but Zhang Fang had always been in charge of family affairs, and he did not express any opinions. Seeing Li Xueyao and Zhang Xiaochuan together, the surprise in her eyes made Li Dachun understand Zhang Fang's good intentions. Zhang Xiaochuan felt even more surprised, taking Li Xueyao away was something he had planned a long time ago, he originally wanted to say it at the last moment, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Fang himself mentioned it first.

It turned out that since Zhang Xiaochuan appeared in his true face, Zhang Fang has been thinking, being troubled, and constantly doing ideological struggles. He was afraid that Zhang Xiaochuan would really take revenge on her, and this matter had always been her inner demon and nightmare. When people talked about it, especially the happiness of seeing Li Xueyao and Zhang Xiaochuan together, and what Zhang Xiaochuan did for Li Xueyao. Zhang Fang's bystanders are clearer, she can fully understand the happiness and joy of Li Xueyao, a girl who is just starting to fall in love, seeing that Zhang Xiaochuan does not have the slightest hypocrisy and pretentiousness towards her, Zhang Fang knows that letting Zhang Xiaochuan take her away is the best choice. As long as Zhang Xiaochuan is willing to make Li Xueyao happy and love the house and Wu, how can he come to revenge himself again. Zhang Fang saw it very accurately, because of love, Zhang Xiaochuan would let go of hatred.

"Xue Yao, are you willing to follow Brother Xiaochuan?" Li Xueyao nodded again and again, for fear that Zhang Fang would regret it, she couldn't control her tears with excitement anymore, and tears burst out of her eyes, but the smile on her face had dispelled the dark clouds and drove away the sorrow. "Xiaochuan, I don't know what you think?" Zhang Fang looked at Zhang Xiaochuan, and Li Xueyao also looked at him worriedly. Zhang Xiaochuan said with a smile on his face, "Let's be honest, I originally planned to take Sister Xue Yao away. Since Zhang Fang had already put it forward first, Zhang Xiaochuan simply sang his thoughts clearly. "That's very good. Zhang Fang didn't expect Zhang Xiaochuan to be so happy, but she saved a lot of trouble, she continued, "It's just a little bit, please treat Xue Yao well." You know that your uncle and I have such a daughter, Xue Yao, she is our treasure and our lucky star. Since we have Xue Yao, our business is getting better and better, and our days are getting better and better, Xue Yao is the hope of your uncle and me, she is our everything, please be good to her, don't hurt her, is it okay to count aunt begging you?" Zhang Fang said for a long time, looking at Zhang Xiaochuan pleadingly. Zhang Xiaochuan also understood what she was worried about, and said to Li Dachun and Zhang Fang, "Uncle Li, Aunt Li, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Sister Xue Yao!" Li Dachun nodded, Zhang Fang smiled with satisfaction, she instructed Li Xueyao again, and everyone began to pack up.

I'm about to leave Qingshuixi, I don't know when I'll be able to come back, Li Xueyao burst into tears, she threw herself into Zhang Fang's arms, she couldn't give up, and Zhang Fang couldn't help wiping her tears. Neighbors, many acquaintances are also very sad, and some of them also shed tears together. Everyone sent out of the village and gave them another ride, Li Xueyao knelt down for Li Dachun and Zhang Fang, crying and telling her father and mother to take care, and the villagers also cherished each other with Zhang Xiaochuan and Li Xueyao. Zhang Xiaochuan helped Li Xueyao get on the horse, took the reins and walked forward. Li Xueyao kept looking back on the horse, waving her hand until she couldn't see everyone clearly.

On the official road, Zhang Xiaochuan also flew on the horse, and the two rode together. Zhang Xiaochuan grabbed her from behind and began to beat the horse and gallop. At the beginning, Li Xueyao was still in the midst of parting, she was not interested, and she had no experience in horseback riding, so she was detained. Half an hour later, her mood gradually improved. Under Zhang Xiaochuan's encouragement, he opened his arms and smiled to welcome the spring breeze, Zhang Xiaochuan was even faster, and the two shouted and shouted, talking and laughing and moving forward.

When she arrived in Qingxi Town, Li Xueyao had never been out of the village before, and when she saw such a big market town, she was full of novelty and her eyes were not good, so Zhang Xiaochuan acted as a guide for her and patiently explained to her. Li Xueyao naturally has many questions, and Zhang Xiaochuan patiently answers them one by one. As long as it can make her happy, Zhang Xiaochuan is willing to do anything for her. After staying in Qingxi Town for a day, Zhang Xiaochuan also arranged his future itinerary. He decided to take Li Xueyao to travel to the south of the Yangtze River, and then return to Bianliang, and the plan was decided, so he raced to the east of Sichuan along the river.

On this day, when I arrived in Ba County, I passed by a land and water wharf, where merchants gathered, ships on the river were endless, and there were sails in the distance. Zhang Xiaochuan's heart moved, and said to Li Xueyao, "Do you want to take a boat?" Li Xueyao looked at the open river, and saw that the big ships were full of sails, and she didn't know where she was heading, and her heart yearned. Hearing Zhang Xiaochuan's question, Li Xueyao nodded happily, and Zhang Xiaochuan took her to the dock without saying a word.

There was a passenger ship heading east, and the shipowner was soliciting merchants. Zhang Xiaochuan led the horse with one hand and pulled Li Xueyao onto the boat with the other. The boatman took the reins, tied them to the stern, and set them up in a room. At this time, Zhang Xiaochuan and Li Xueyao took a good look at the ship. The ship was not small, pulling more than twenty merchants, and also pulling some cargo. After a while, the boat set sail, Zhang Xiaochuan and Li Xueyao stood on the foredeck of the ship, looking at the railing. I saw that the river surface in this area is quite open, the high mountains on both sides of the river are a little far apart, and the river breeze is blowing, which is not pleasant. Li Xueyao smiled in the wind, closed her eyes and thought about it, Zhang Xiaochuan was doing the same thing as her, the two of them opened their eyes, looked at each other and smiled, infinite happiness and sweetness spread in the hearts of the two.

Shu is prosperous and rich, known as the "country of abundance" reputation, this coming and going ships, Dora is the tea, salt, textiles and other things of Shu, the volume is very large, the ships required are very much, so the boats on the river are endless, the sail shadow is dotted, it has become a beautiful scenery. Their boats were full of sails and went down the river at great speed, but the boats going up were very difficult, and there were many rowers, and they had to be pulled by men. The boat traveled for more than two hours, and they stood at the bow of the boat for two hours, the river gradually narrowed, and the high mountains on both sides of the river seemed to have the momentum of squeezing over, and the river suddenly became much more turbulent. While watching the scenery, they talked about the ships coming and going, and Zhang Xiaochuan also told her some rumors and anecdotes, and the two of them stood for a long time, but they were not tired at all.

The sun was slanting to the west, but it was still early, and the ship entered a bay, and the ship stopped moving. The people on the boat were puzzled and asked the boatman. The boatman said, "There is a dangerous beach called New Beach in front, the beach is dangerous and rapid, and it needs to be commanded, and the ships must also line up in order to pass in turn, otherwise the ship will be destroyed and people will die if you are not careful." There are already a lot of boats ahead, so let's rest for the night and set out on the beach tomorrow morning. When the people heard this, they were relieved. They enjoy the sunset with peace of mind. I saw a round of red sunset, hanging on the mountain, but not very dazzling, the reflection of the river surface is glittering, and it is a beautiful picture. After dinner, people blew the river breeze for a while and looked up at the night sky for a while. The night sky is full of stars, and the boats on the river are connected with fishing fires, which is beautiful. The night breeze grew colder, and everyone went back to sleep in the cabin.

The next day, Zhang Xiaochuan was woken up by Jiang Tao and came out of the cabin, the river breeze was blowing, and it was extremely refreshing. Li Xueyao is standing against the railing, her clothes are fluttering, her white clothes are better than snow, her hair is light, she is like a fairy, this picture is beautiful, better than all natural landscapes, Zhang Xiaochuan was excited, and couldn't help but look stupid. "Brother Xiaochuan, you're here too. Li Xueyao turned around, found him, and shouted to him, Zhang Xiaochuan woke up like a dream and stepped forward slowly. "Brother Xiaochuan, the scenery here is so beautiful. At this time, a round of red sun was erupting, the sky was red, the river was also red, and Li Xueyao's face was also red. Zhang Xiaochuan's heart moved, and he hugged her shoulder, Li Xueyao smiled at him, and leaned towards him. The two looked at the river scenery for a while, and the boatman called everyone to have breakfast, and then pulled the anchor and set sail.

The river became narrower and narrower, and the mountains on both sides of the river became tighter, and the river suddenly became unusually turbulent, and in some places roared. The rapids of the river crashed against the rocks, stirring up high waves, and the water came back and hit the boat. Sometimes, when the waves are a little high, the water wets people's clothes, and some people let out an exclamation, and the rudder turns very fast, and the hull of the ship sometimes shakes and sometimes shakes, and the faint-hearted people have already entered the cabin. At this time, the shipkeeper shouted to the people on deck, "Ladies and gentlemen, please go into the cabin and take shelter, the beach here is dangerous, there are many accidents, and it is very dangerous. "Everyone already felt the danger here, and after the ship's words, they all took refuge in the cabin.

Zhang Xiaochuan said in his heart, it is rare to have such an opportunity in life, and he is reluctant to return to the cabin, at this time, he and Li Xueyao are left on the deck, and the boatman urged, "Please enter the cabin quickly!" Zhang Xiaochuan looked at Li Xueyao, Li Xueyao instantly understood his intentions, and said to Zhang Xiaochuan decisively, "I want to be with Brother Xiaochuan!" Zhang Xiaochuan immediately understood, the two looked at each other and smiled, Zhang Xiaochuan said to the boatman, "There is a reminder from the boatman, the two of us can be here!" The boatman said, " It's dangerous here, it's child's play, and if there is an accident, it's no wonder I'm waiting!" Zhang Xiaochuan said with a smile, "That's natural." The boatman said no more.

The people on the ship, with solemn expressions, waited for the battle, and saw someone on the mountain in front of them raising flags and beating drums to guide the ship to pass. Although Zhang Xiaochuan was self-assured, after all, Li Xueyao didn't know martial arts at all, and he didn't dare to be careless, he took her hand and walked to the position of the hatch, ready to go into the cabin to avoid as soon as there was danger.

A drum was heard in the distance, and the mountain people waved their flags, and their boats rushed down the river like arrows from the string. A few brave passengers also looked out from the hatch, the terrain was extremely difficult, and their bodies swayed from side to side of the ship after a series of sharp turns. After the boat turned a corner, a boulder suddenly appeared in front of them, and when they saw that the boat was about to hit the mountain rock head-on, they couldn't help screaming, and the boat suddenly turned sharply and changed direction, so that they could avoid the boulder, and everyone covered their hearts and breathed a sigh of relief. Whenever this situation is encountered, the boatman with superb technology, can always turn the danger into a disaster, although everyone feels dangerous, but they feel that there is no danger, and it is even more exciting. Everyone's net worth and life are all in the hands of the helmsman, and they secretly admire the helmsman's eyesight and judgment. Seeing that the boatman was skillful, although it was dangerous, everyone was no longer as worried as before, and some people moved a few steps to the hatch, and the more clearly they could see the boat, the more thrilling it became.

Suddenly, a huge mountain rock appeared in front of them, and everyone felt that the mountain stone was coming quickly, and they all felt the oppression of the mountain stone, and they couldn't help but scream, and they couldn't help but scream, and they couldn't hide away immediately, but where could they, some people were so frightened that they closed their eyes and said in their hearts, "It's over." Some people were almost frightened and fainted, Zhang Xiaochuan hugged Li Xueyao, stared at the mountain stone tightly, and sweated a lot in his palms. I saw the hull of the ship turn on the ground, gently and skillfully brushing against the rocks, and the disaster did not come. Everyone thought it was incredible, some people had already recited "Amitabha", and Fang Chang, who was slow to react, exclaimed, and the timid people didn't dare to look at it anymore, so they quickly turned back to the cabin to rest, I really don't know how many such dangers there are ahead.

Zhang Xiaochuan held Li Xueyao's hand tightly, he also felt her nervousness, her palms were also full of sweat, and her other hand hugged Zhang Xiaochuan's waist tightly. Zhang Xiaochuan didn't want her to be scared anymore, and was considering whether to go back to the cabin to rest. Suddenly, there was a "bang", the hull of the ship shook, and the sailors on the ship also exclaimed, at the same time, several people in the hatch rushed forward, caught off guard, Zhang Xiaochuan and Li Xueyao were squeezed into the middle of the foredeck, Zhang Xiaochuan hurriedly used the jack falling method, and stood firm with the pile. Two or three people behind him were also squeezed onto the deck, and they were swaying to themselves, only to see a horse in the river neighing a few times, and it was not seen again when it entered the water. Li Xueyao and Zhang Xiaochuan knew that it was their own mount, and they could only sigh. Suddenly, the hull of the ship shook again, changing course. Li Xueyao's body shook sharply, and Zhang Xiaochuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold her tightly into his arms. On the deck, two passengers couldn't hold it and rushed to the guardrail, but fortunately they grabbed the guardrail in a hurry, and the guardrail was also strong, and the two people grabbed the guardrail, changed color in shock, and shouted wildly. The other man was not as fortunate as they were, and he was thrown up and thrown into the guardrail, and saw that the situation was very critical. Zhang Xiaochuan's eyes were quick, and he moved his steps, but fortunately the distance was not far, Zhang Xiaochuan reached out and grabbed his ankle, grabbed his ankle, and pulled it back with his hand, pulling the man back to the deck, the man fell on the deck, although he was not injured, but he was already scared and fainted.

As soon as the hull of the ship stabilized, a few people had no time to turn around and enter the cabin, and the hull shook again, and a large boat that looked like they were sitting on the boat squeezed hard next to their hull, and more than a dozen people on board were fighting around a man and a woman. The dozen or so people were dressed in black suits, and they were still covered with water. The ship suddenly rushed towards a boulder, and with a "bang", the foredeck cracked, and several planks went away with the water. The hull of the ship tilted slightly, lost control, and after a few spins, the hull began to sink, but the people on board continued to fight.
