Just when Su Qing and Yu Xiaoyao were attracted by this note, the unmanned painting boat suddenly moved on its own, and a loud pulp sound sounded in the night.

"Could it be that there are ghosts on this ship?" Su Qing exclaimed.

Yu Xiaoyao sneered, "I'm afraid that someone is pretending to be a ghost!"

There was still only the sound of oars.

Yu Xiaoyao crouched on the floor, listened quietly for a while, and said, "There is a mezzanine under the ship, and people are in the mezzanine." ”

Su Qing said in disbelief: "The Siling people have already committed suicide by throwing themselves into the river, who will give them orders?"

"Perhaps, they had received orders before they left. Yu shook the note in his hand.

Su Qing frowned slightly, "Golden Knife Sixth?"

Yu Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "But the handwriting on this paper looks like Tang Qi's." ”

But it was in a box with a golden sword. Su Qing reminded loudly.

Yu Xiaoyao thought about it, put the note away, and said, "No matter who it is, we will know tomorrow at noon." ”

Su Qing pointed to his feet and said, "Why don't you catch someone and ask?"

Yu Xiaoyao turned around the ship, but did not find any passage to the lower level, he raised his palm to try to penetrate the floor, but he did not expect that under the wooden plank, there was actually a layer of cast iron plate. Yu Xiaoyao clapped his hands and said with a wry smile: "Unless it is to set fire to the ship, there is no way to force the people below out." ”

"And now?" asked Su Qing.

Yu Xiaoyao picked up a jar of wine, poured half a jar of wine on the ground, and raised his head to drink the remaining half jar of wine.

"Now, we drink. ”

There was a lot of wine on the boat, and Yu Xiaoyao also drank a lot of wine.

For whom he drank it, he couldn't even tell himself.

Is it for the Siling people who sacrificed their lives for righteousness?

Or is it for Tang Qi, who may be in prison?

Or is it for Su Qing, whose cheeks are crimson who has been drunk?

Yu Xiaoyao found that as long as Su Qing drank too much, he would stare at something with his eyes blurred, for example, he.

"Is there a bloom on my face?" Yu Xiaoyao quipped.

Su Qing shook her head vigorously, she sat unsteadily, and almost fell to the ground, Yu Xiaoyao quickly reached out to help her, but she pushed his hand away hard.

"Why did you save Su Qing?" she sounded not only drunk, but also angry.

"Why can't I save you?" asked Yu Xiaoyao rhetorically.

"Su Qing didn't call you to come to your rescue. ”

"How can that Yu not be saved. Yu Xiaoyao drank another sea bowl of wine, and this sea bowl was the pair of sea bowls that contained the antidote just now.

"Am I dead or alive, what does it have to do with you?!" Su Qing said angrily.

Yu Xiaoyao put down the sea bowl and said lightly: "Then what does it have to do with you whether I save it or not?"

Su Qing stared at him angrily.

Yu Xiaoyao also looked at her quietly.

Su Qing suddenly laughed, she obviously had tears in her eyes, but she laughed happily.

"Yu Xiaoyao, has anyone ever said that you are really annoying. ”

Yu Xiaoyao nodded slightly, "A lot of girls have said that. ”

Su Qing smiled eating, imitating Chen Yexing's tone and said: "Loose people, extremely smart, unparalleled, really true, really true." As she said this, she leaned over to him, and by the end, the warm breath from her mouth had reached Yu Xiaoyao's ears.

Yu Xiaoyao quietly stepped aside, stretched out his hand to support her, and said lightly, "Miss Su, you are drunk." ”

Su Qing looked at him, there seemed to be endless grievances in his eyes, "Then why aren't you drunk yet?"

"It's not that I'm not drunk, it's that I don't dare to get drunk. ”

Su Qing blinked and asked seriously, "Why don't you dare to get drunk?"

Yu Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "I'm just afraid that if I'm drunk, I won't be able to be a gentleman." ”

Su Qing's eyes dimmed, "Then when you saved me, were you a gentleman?" she asked.

Yu Xiaoyao avoided her forced gaze and said, "Sister-in-law, Uncle Help, just from power." ”

The tears in Su Qing's eyes fell and fell on his clothes, staining the white clothes. She suddenly reached out, lifted the veil from her face, pointed to the scar on her face and asked, "Is it because of this?"

Jade Xiaoyao couldn't dodge anymore, and he reached out to touch her face. Su Qing subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Yu Xiaoyao's other hand grabbed her tightly.

He looked at her with only infinite tenderness in his eyes.

His hand landed lightly on the scar on her face.

Su Qing leaned his face on his hand and cried uncontrollably.

The tears flowed in the palms of his hands, hot as hot blood.

The noise from outside woke Su Qing, and when she opened her eyes, she was stung by the bright sunlight again. Last night's hangover was still haunting her, her mouth was dry and astringent, and her headache looked like it was about to crack.

Her eyes adjusted to the brightness of the sun, and she opened them to take in what was in front of her.

She was still on the boat, covered with a jade robe, and a bowl of water was placed on the table at hand. She pushed away the clothes she was covering and sat up, grabbed a sip of water, and got up to her feet.

Yu Xiaoyao sat leaning against the door frame, one leg on the threshold, and when she saw Su Qing awake, she greeted her with a smile.

"Miss Su woke up. ”

Su Qing remembered his drunken gaffe last night, and couldn't help but blush again, and nodded slightly at Yu Xiaoyao. "Where have we been?" as she spoke, stepping past Jade and out of the cabin.

Compared with the dusty night last night, the Yangtze River in the day is a different scenery.

On the wide river, boats of all sizes shuttled back and forth, fishermen spread their nets, and the sun shone on the thin nets, the boatmen of the ferries held a long bamboo wormwood and sang local songs loudly, and on other fishing boats stood a row of black ghosts wearing collars, and as soon as the fisherman blew his whistle, these black ghosts spread their wings and burrowed into the water, and after a while they came out of the water with fish in their mouths, and the fishermen took the fish from their mouths and threw them into the boat.

On both sides of the river are cliffs like axes and knives, as if two huge city walls have fallen from the sky, and they face each other across the river, and the cliffs are covered with lush trees, and from time to time the roar of apes comes from the trees.

Under the pressure of these two cliffs, on the wide river, a small island suddenly pops out, the island is full of green trees, and in the shade of branches and leaves, there are faint layers of red walls and green tiles.

Yu Xiaoyao came to her side at some point, pointed to the island with his hand, and said, "That's the White Emperor City." ”

The boat slowly stopped at the dock, and the sound of pulp disappeared in unison as it had appeared.

"Last night..." Su Qing bit her lip, "Do you regret it?"

"Regret. Yu Xiaoyao said, "I don't regret it either." ”

"Oh?" Su Qing couldn't help but glance at him.

"As a man, I regret it. Yu Xiaoyao blinked, "But as a man, I don't regret it." ”

This is really a contradiction, if it was said from someone else's mouth elsewhere, Su Qing would definitely think he was crazy.

But when Yu Xiaoyao said this, she understood.

As a man, the scenery last night was so beautiful, it was impossible to say that I was not tempted.

So he will regret it.

But also as a man, Yu Xiaoyao has his own persistence, and taking advantage of people's danger is by no means his style.

So, he doesn't regret it either.

Su Qing lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, "Doesn't a gentleman take advantage of others?"

"I'm not a gentleman. Jade smiled bitterly, "I'm just a big bastard." ”

Thousands of years ago, Shu County Taishou Gongsun Shu watched the white dragon out of the well here, thought it was a good omen from the sky, so he established himself as the White Emperor, built the capital here, and the White Emperor City came from this.

On both sides of the long mountain road, there are countless vendors selling along the road, some selling candy people, some selling calligraphy and paintings, and some selling wooden carved canes and bamboo flutes.

Su Qing is used to seeing the prosperity of Yangzhou, but he doesn't think it's so lively here, but he thinks it's very strange that this island city can be so prosperous.

Yu Xiaoyao smiled slightly, pointed to the small city on the top of the mountain and said, "Do you know who lives in the White Emperor City now?"

"Who is it?" Su Qing was aroused, could it be a famous person?

"A thousand years ago, Gongsun Shu built a city here and established himself as the White Emperor, but it was not him who was enshrined in this city, but several other people who had a great relationship with this city. Yu Xiaoyao said.

"Could it be Liu Xuande who is in the White Emperor City?" Su Qing is also a very smart person, and he can understand it at all.

"And Zhuge Liang, Zhang Yide. It doesn't matter, the most important thing is the fourth person. ”

Su Qing immediately reacted, "Martial Saint Guan Yunchang?!"

Yu Xiaoyao nodded, "Since there is a statue of Guan Yunchang, there are those who open incense halls who come here to worship the dock, and those who run the rivers and lakes come here to worship the God of Wealth, some seek righteousness, and some seek wealth, and there are more people." But the White Emperor Gongsun Shu was forgotten like this. ”

"All the fame in front of him, whether it is an emperor or a general, in the end it is just a wood carving clay sculpture. Su Qing sighed softly.

"How to wander the rivers and lakes, wandering the end of the world to be happy. Yu Xiaoyao continued, "However, since we are here, let's also go and offer incense to Emperor Guan." ”

Su Qing didn't know what he saw, "Childe, wait a minute, Su Qing will come when he goes." ”

Yu Xiaoyao looked at her curiously, and between she walked to the stall that sold wood carving bamboo flutes, squatted down to pick and choose, and didn't know what to choose, and after picking for a while, she picked up something from the stall, paid the money, and walked back with the thing.

It was a bamboo flute.

"Miss Su can also play the flute?" said Yu Xiaoyao curiously.

"Please listen to me. ”

Su Qing pursed his lips and smiled, stood on this mountain road, stood in the crowd, and gently put the bamboo flute to his mouth and blew it.

Obviously it was just a cheap bamboo flute, but in her hands it was like magic, for a while, the wind stopped, the trees were quiet, only the river gently patted the rocks on the shore, and her flute sounded in the distance. The shouting of one after another stopped, the tourists who came and went did not leave, time lost its strength on this mountain road, only the crisp flute hovered in this mountain, echoing in everyone's ears, telling.

Until the flute stopped, many people waited in a daze, refusing to leave.

The flute seller came over and handed over a handful of money to Su Qing, "Girl, the money will be returned to you." ”

Su Qing shook his head and said, "How can this work?!" said that he was about to hand the money back.

The peddler resolutely refused to accept it, and he said: "The girl's flute is played well, and I am willing to give this flute to you, and I can't take this money at all." ”

Su Qing smiled slightly and said, "This flute was not bought for me, it was given to the son next to me, you must accept this money." ”

The peddler argued, but in the end he was only willing to take half of the money, so he went happily.

"Give it to me?" Yu Xiaoyao pointed to his nose with a blank expression, "I don't know how to play the flute, isn't it a waste to give it to me?"

Su Qing stuffed the flute into his hand and said with a smile: "Childe can't play, you can ask Su Qing for advice." ”

Yu Xiaoyao smiled and nodded, gently stroked the bamboo flute in his hand, and said, "Okay, I must study hard, but I'm afraid that my husband will think I'm stupid and refuse to teach." ”

Su Qing sighed and said faintly: "Yes, Yu Xiaoyao, you are really the big fool of Tianzi No. 1." ”

Someone laughed softly, and the sound was clear to both of them.

"That's right, Jade Xiaoyao, you're a real fool. ”
