264. River vignette
After reburying the tomb crossing of King Wu's tomb, Du Buyi hurriedly said goodbye to Yu Dayou for the time being, and went to find Xi Siqi and Huizi.
After seeing people inquiring, he learned that today was August 17, and Du did not forget that he and Yu Dayou had been trapped in the tomb for two days, so he immediately returned to Du's mansion to see if the two were at home.
After arriving at Du's house, I suddenly saw that the house was already full of white cloth, and a mourning hall had been set up in the lobby.
And Xi Siqi and Huizi are wearing filial piety on one side and crying, Hu Hu, Xiaoxin and Hua Ying are all wearing white filial piety clothes and are also shedding tears on the other side.
Seeing this, Du Bu Bu quietly walked in, deliberately lowered his voice and said to everyone:
"I'm a ghost that I won't forget, and I'm back to you now!"
At this time, several people were so frightened that they didn't dare to raise their heads, and after a while, they saw Xi Siqi secretly glance at Du Zhiyi, and boldly asked:
"Xianggong, since your soul has returned, why are you standing at the door?"
Du didn't forget to smile a little and said:
"I don't like to lie in a coffin, do I have my body in the coffin?"
Xi Siqi replied:
"Xianggong's sword pool is bottomless, we can't salvage Xianggong's body, and naturally there can only be the relics in front of Xianggong in the coffin!"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Oh......!"
At this time, Hu Hu suddenly got up and walked over, touched Du Yixin with his hand, and then said excitedly to several people:
"Your Brother Du is not dead, he is still alive, you can try to touch people!"
When Xi Siqi and Keiko heard this, they immediately surrounded them, touched Du Chengcheng, and then said:
"It's really alive!"
Hu Hu hurriedly said to Xiaoxin and Jacaranda at this time:
"What else do you see, since Gongzi is alive, then a few of us quickly remove this mourning hall!"
Xi Siqi glared at Du Yiyi, and then said:
"Xianggong, you are so bad, you even lied to us!"
Du did not forget to touch Xi Siqi's head and said:
"I didn't mean to, I didn't come back and suddenly saw that you actually set up a mourning hall for me, and I didn't know what to say for a while, so I just made a joke for you!"
Keiko then said:
"Sister Xi, let's hurry up and change clothes for Brother Du, you see that Brother Du's clothes are all dirt now!"
Du Cheng Cheng said:
"Well, I'm sleepy and hungry now!"
Hu Hu came over and said:
"Childe, the meal is ready, you hurry up and come back to eat after changing your clothes, brother, I must have a big drink with you!"
At this time, Xiaoxin came over and glared at Hu Hu and said:
"Childe is tired now, you still persuade him to drink with you, you can drink, our son can't drink!"
Siqi also said:
"Sister Xiaoxin is still considerate, let's not get drunk when we eat!"
Du Cheng Cheng said:
"Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Then he went back to the room to change clothes surrounded by Xi Siqi and Keiko.
After a while, after the meal, Xi Siqi accompanied Du Buyi back to the room to sleep.
Du did not forget to hug Xi Siqi at this time and said:
"Siqi, we've been separated for two years, but we don't have time to be together like this until today!"
Xi Siqi glanced at Du and said:
"yes, who told you to be so busy!"
Then he walked to the table and brought a bowl of tea to Du Buxing, brought it to Du Buyi's mouth, and said:
"Xianggong, do you know what this tea is made of?"
Du did not forget to smile and replied:
"Isn't it all the same?"
Xi Siqi said solemnly:
"This tea is made with Hanhan spring water, I heard that it can not only cure all kinds of diseases, but also make people conceive fetuses!"
Du Cheng said:
"In that case, of course it's time for Siqi to drink!"
Xi Siqi smiled slightly and said:
"Xianggong, I've already drunk it, so you can drink it!"
Du did not forget to look at Xi Siqi and said:
"Okay, I'll drink it for my husband!"
After drinking tea, Xi Siqi helped Du to sit on the bed and untied his clothes for him.
I only heard Xi Siqi say while undressing Du Yi:
"Xianggong, do you know how much I miss you in the past two years?"
Du didn't forget to keep looking at Xi Siqi with his eyes and said:
"Of course I understand you, there are a lot of things we don't need to say between us!"
At this time, Du Buxing's shirt had been taken off, and Xi Siqi said to Du Buxing:
"Xianggong, let's sleep!"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Good!"
Then he hugged Xi Siqi and put him on the bed and pressed it!
After resting for another day and accompanying Keiko for one night, Du Buyi packed his luggage with the two of them, rented a boat together, and planned to go to Fuso to find Haruko.
Unexpectedly, when Du Buyi and the three of them were saying goodbye to Hu Hu and the others on the boat, Fu Tianchen also came with his luggage at this time.
Du Bu did not forget to ask Fu Tianchen:
"Brother Fu, why are you here?"
Fu Tianchen replied:
"I haven't been to Fusang since I was a child, since I met Keiko and Miss Mingxi, I've been curious about Fusang, maybe I can find a lady as beautiful as Mingxi and Keiko as virtuous as I go there!"
At this time, Du did not forget to say to Fu Tianchen:
"You really can't open a pot, don't you know that Mingxi is now the imperial concubine of the dynasty? It is possible to give birth to the crown prince for the emperor soon, and you still mention her!"
Fu Tianchen replied:
"I'll just mention what's wrong with Miss Mingxi, didn't Miss Mingxi treat you badly in the first place? I still want to mention Xian'er, mention Wan'er!"
On the side, Xi Siqi and Keiko both laughed at this time, only to hear Xi Siqi say:
"Brother Fu is telling us this, but Sister Keiko and I are already past the age of jealousy, and we have long understood what kind of person Du does not forget, otherwise we will not be with her!"
At this time, Du did not forget to say to Fu Tianchen:
"You see, my two ladies won't be provoked by you at all!"
Fu Tianchen also said:
"Where did I provoke you, it was because I knew that your two ladies believed in you too much, so I dared to mention other women like this!"
Then Fu Tianchen pulled Keiko aside again and asked about Fusang, but most of them asked how the woman over there was doing, and Keiko sometimes didn't know how to answer.
At this time, the ship had already left the city of Suzhou and entered the Yangtze River, only to enter the sea to the east.
A few people were chatting happily, but the boat they were riding was surrounded by several small boats in the river.
At this time, a middle-aged dark-skinned man in the boat took the lead in stepping onto the ship of Du Buxing, and then pointed to Du Bucheng and said:
"I heard that you are Du Tanhua, right?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Yes, I wonder why you're looking for me like this, man?"
The swarthy man said:
"Since it's Du Tanhua, don't blame us for being rude!"
After speaking, he pulled out the knife on his back and slashed at Du Buyi, and the eight people on several other ships also drew their knives and slashed at the other people beside Du Buyi.
Du Buyi was also inexplicable for a while, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, and immediately pulled out the Tai'a sword, blocking the swarthy man's knife, and then took advantage of the situation to protect Xi Siqi and Keiko behind him.
At this time, the most excited person was Fu Tianchen, only to hear Fu Tianchen say to the Yangtze River Jiulong:
"Master, no one has practiced boxing with me for a long time, so I'll play with you today!"
Then he fought with this Yangtze River Jiulong with his bare hands, these people naturally did not forget to fight Fu Tianchen, and both of them beat away eight of them without much effort, and caught the dark-skinned man.
Du did not forget to put the Tai'a sword on the neck of this dark-skinned man at this time and questioned:
"Who are you in the Yangtze River Kowloon, why did you come to rob and kill me?"
The man replied:
"We Yangtze River Kowloon is the nine brothers in this Jiangsu and Zhejiang region who specialize in doing things for their employers in the river to earn money, I am their eldest brother Dillon, our nine brothers all have a dragon character in their names, and they rarely fail to do things for so many years, so the employer calls us the Yangtze River Kowloon, as for Du Tanhua, you asked us why we robbed and killed you, we have our own rules on the road, and we can't answer you!"
At this time, Fu Tianchen came over and kicked this Dillon, then picked up the knife that Dillon had dropped on the ground just now, put it on Dillon's left ear, and asked Dillon loudly:
"My brother Du is kind to you, I am different from him, if you don't honestly tell who instructed you to hunt us down, then your left ear will be gone!"
Then Dillon said:
"Even if you kill me, I won't be able to break this rule!"
Fu Tianchen raised the knife at this time, and cut off this Dillon's ear with one knife, and Du Buyi was shocked when he saw it, and Xi Siqi and Keiko naturally couldn't see this meeting at this time, and they had already hid back in the cabin.
Fu Tianchen didn't pay attention to Dillon, who was screaming in pain, and took the knife and said to Dillon's other ear:
"Do you say it or not, if you don't say that your ear is gone, I will cut off your nose and gouge out your eyes!"
At this time, Dillon was frightened and said:
I said...... I say!"
Fu Tianchen withdrew the knife and said to Du Yi:
"If this kind of person doesn't give him some color, he won't be honest!"
Just listen to this Dillon say:
"We also listened to the young master of the Salt Gang Zhu Qingmang's employment, and came here to block and kill Du Tanhua!"
Du did not forget to smile and said:
"It turned out to be Zhu Qingmang, I'm still curious about who it is!"
Fu Tianchen also said:
"This Zhu Qingmang still underestimates us too much!"
At this time, Du did not forget to ask Dillon again:
"How much commission did you pay to hire Qingmang to let you kill me?"
Dillon replied:
"It's not much, it's only five hundred taels of silver!"
Du did not forget to take out a large golden lump that he had taken in the tomb that day, handed it to Dillon, and said:
"You see if my golden pimple is worth five hundred taels, if it's worth it, then you can take it to kill that Zhu Qingmang for me, if it's not worth it, just compensate for your ears being cut!"
Dillon hurriedly took the pimple, then covered the severed ear with one hand, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Du Yiyi, while saying:
"Enough...... Enough, thank you Du Gongzi for not killing, we Jiulong will definitely go to kill Zhu Qingmang for Du Gongzi, and also seek justice for myself!"
At this time, Fu Tianchen said:
"It's okay if you're sensible, since Du Tanhua promised to let you go, you should leave quickly, don't let me Fu Tianchen see you again, maybe next time it will be your descendants who will be gone, do you hear?"
Dillon replied:
"Little one knows!"
Then he turned around and jumped into the river, only to see a few more traces of blood on the surface of the river, naturally the blood that flowed from Dillon's ears was cut off.
At this time, Fu Tianchen asked Du Buzhi:
"People are here to kill you, why do you treat him so well and give him back the gold?"
Du Buyi smiled and said:
"This kind of killer is the most annoying, it's better not to be offended, after all, I still have Siqi and Keiko with me, I have to think about them!"
Fu Tianchen asked again at this time:
"Then Brother Du, do you believe that they will take the gold and listen to you, and help you kill Zhu Qingmang?"
Du Bu Bu still smiled and said:
"I don't think they will, they don't dare to offend the Salt Gang, Zhu Qingmang is just resentful of me because he can't marry Wan'er, but let him go!"
