It was noon, on the Li River, the wind and waves were calm, and a huge merchant ship was sailing on the wide river, which was a large thousand-mile ship in Xifeng Country.

This kind of hull is huge, the hull is made of a hundred years of ironwood, more than ten zhang of the hull, there is an independent small building on it, and there is a huge warehouse, it uses the pedal principle to drive the pedal boat with manpower, the speed is very fast, the wind and the wind can travel quickly, this kind of thousand-mile ship is a kind of cargo ship that the big businessmen of Xifeng country love very much.

On the surface of the river, suddenly, a wave surged, the water surface automatically separated, Qin Ping'an walked out step by step, standing quietly on the river surface, as if walking on the ground, looking up at the sun above his head, and stretched lazily.

"Ah...... I haven't seen the sun for more than half a year, so it's comfortable. Qin Ping'an's mood also became cheerful.

Seeing that there was a big ship in front of him, Qin Ping'an thought about it, it was not good to suddenly appear on the boat, his body moved, he came to the front of the big ship, withdrew the spell, and suddenly fell into the water.

"Help, someone has fallen into the water!" Qin Ping'an's angry voice spread far away, and after a while, many people ran out of the big boat, pointing to Qin Ping'an in the water.

After a while, the big boat slowly stopped, a small boat was put down, a few men rowed the boat and came quickly, a few men picked up Qin Ping'an in three or two, and then sent Qin Ping'an to the big boat.

"Thank you, thank you for saving your life. Qin Ping'an thanked him again and again, there was no way, he didn't want to hurry by himself, so he could only grieve himself, like the kind of thing that showed his immortal breath and dragged the two hundred and fifty or eighty thousand to get on the boat, Qin Ping'an couldn't do it, no way, the tutor was so good.

"This little brother, how could you encounter such a dangerous situation?" In the crowd of onlookers, a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe and a foreign hat stepped forward and asked.

"Hey, little brother, this is the shopkeeper of our Tianxuan firm, it's good to meet him, count yourself lucky, otherwise I'm afraid you'll feed the fish!" a sailor-like man laughed.

"Yes, little brother, why did you fall into the water alone?" asked a bearded strong man, dressed in a short shirt, and asked curiously.

"This, don't hide it from you, I am a poor scholar who failed the exam, originally boarded the boat, ready to return home, continue to study hard, who knows, the black-hearted boatman, halfway to increase the price, pity me where there is extra silver, and then they threw me off the boat, thanks to me who knows a little water, and my bookcase floats on the water, so I insisted until you well-wishers, otherwise ......." Qin Ping'an's nonsense came as soon as he opened his mouth, and he squeezed out tears.

"Hey, these people are just brutes, little brother, don't worry, you will live on my boat, I don't want a penny from you!" the bearded man scolded indignantly when he heard this.

"Uh...... This big brother, who are you?" Qin Ping'an wiped his tears and asked, the smell of salted fish on the big man in front of him with a strong sense of justice made Qin Ping'an a little dizzy, how long has this old brother not taken a bath.

"This ship is mine, my name is Zhao Fushan, this shopkeeper Lin chartered my ship, this trip is for cargo. Zhao Fushan patted his chest and said with a big grin.

"The boat boss is also a happy person, the little brother is in distress, you might as well live in peace, all these expenses will be deducted from my expenses. Shopkeeper Lin said with a smile.

"When you go out, do more good deeds, this God will not condemn you. Shopkeeper Lin explained to Qin Ping'an that he was afraid that Qin Ping'an would be too careful. This merchant goes out to seek wealth, does good deeds and accumulates virtue, and a little silver is harmless.

"Thank you Shopkeeper Lin, thank you Captain Boat!" Qin Ping'an thanked again and again, these people met in Pingshui, no matter what, this kind of treatment couldn't be better, even if he was a liar, but he also felt warm in his heart.

"I don't know where the little brother is going?" asked the shopkeeper Lin with concern, and then instructed the people next to him: "Go, bring the appropriate clothes here." ”

Qin Ping'an hurriedly waved his hand: "Thank you Shopkeeper Lin, my bookcase is waterproof, and the things in it should not be soaked in water, so don't bother." ”

"My surname is Qin, my name is Xianyu, and I will go back to my hometown in Pingyang County this time. Qin Ping'an explained politely.

"Oh, I see," Shopkeeper Lin nodded, "We're going to Shepherd City on the border, and we can carry you for a while." ”

"Shopkeeper Lin went to Shepherd City to do business?" Qin Ping'an looked at Shopkeeper Lin with a peaceful face in surprise, this Shepherd City, in the northwest corner of Pingyang County, is a military town in Xifeng Country, looking at Shopkeeper Lin's appearance of not showing mountains and waters, the official background is not shallow.

"Hehe, as long as there are people, there will always be business. "Shopkeeper Lin is always smiling.

"Shopkeeper Lin, there is a letter. A subordinate ran over.

Shopkeeper Lin arched his hand to Qin Ping'an and said, "Master Qin, I'm sorry, there are some things to deal with, Boss Boat, you can help me arrange a room for Master Qin." ”

"No problem, don't worry!" Lin Fushan assured in a rough voice.

Qin Ping'an returned the salute and watched Shopkeeper Lin walk back to the shipyard.

"Qin Gongzi, come with me, I still have a guest room here, of course, there is only one ordinary room left, Qin Gongzi don't be surprised. Lin Fushan raised his hand and motioned for Qin Ping'an to follow.

"Hehe, there is a lot of trouble, it is good to be able to live. Don't dare to ask for extravagance. Qin Ping'an smiled, didn't care, anyway, he rested for a while, asked about something and left.

"Uncle Fukuyama, are you from the capital?" Qin Ping asked with a casual chatter.

"No, from the Caoyun Wharf in the capital, all the way down the river. Lin Fushan said in a sullen voice.

Qin Ping'an sighed, and said enviously: "This ship is also hard work, Brother Fushan can have such a big ship, I think I want to come to the capital is also a person with a head and a face, the little brother is so envious, he is poor and destitute in reading, alas, ......."

"Haha, Brother Qin, it's not easy for us to do this business, if it weren't for the fact that I still have a little thin noodles on the rivers and lakes, this business would not be easy to do. I'm not reading material, like you readers, once the title of the gold list and the red name are in your body, the identity is not comparable to those of us rough people. Lin Fushan smiled and comforted Qin Ping'an.

Qin Ping'an said in surprise: "Oh, Uncle Fushan is also from the rivers and lakes? Hehe, although the kid is a scholar, he also admires those righteous men on the rivers and lakes." ”

"Little Brother Qin, you have an amazing hero in Pingyang County, Qin Wuye of Pingyang Dart Bureau, have you heard of it?" Lin Fushan suddenly asked mysteriously.

"This ...... Qin Wuye is famous, and he is a first-class person in our Pingyang County, so he has naturally heard of it. Qin Ping'an was stunned, and then had to go on, but he secretly complained in his heart, his reputation in Xifeng Country was okay, but he didn't seem to help his fart along the way.

"Hey, by the way, I went to Beijing to take the exam before, passing by Wangxian City, where martial law is not allowed to enter, I saw a lot of soldiers, I heard that something seems to have happened to the royal family of Xifeng Country. Qin Ping'an said quietly. I want to talk to Lin Fushan step by step, I'm afraid it's all night, these guys can chat for three days without stopping, if there is wine and meat, it will be even worse, my father used to drink too much, standing in the yard and chatting with the doorpost about the big things in the rivers and lakes!

"Hey, it's not, that matter is not small, I have a brother who works as an errand in the guard, I heard him say that someone broke into the royal palace that day, and it is said that the national teacher was assassinated!" Lin Fushan's eyes lit up, and he came to his senses. Immediately replied in a whisper.

Qin Ping'an exclaimed appropriately: "No, Master Guoshi, I heard that his martial arts cultivation is the first in the martial arts list of the rivers and lakes, who can assassinate him?"

I like the appearance of you guys who have never seen the world, Lin Fushan was very satisfied when he saw Qin Ping'an's shocked appearance, and then picked his thumb again, and blew each other in business: "Little Brother Qin actually knows the martial arts list, and it is really different from those nerds who are full of mouths." ”

"Come on, this is Little Brother Qin's room, this is it. ”

At this time, the two walked to the stern, the lowest floor of the ship, the most marginal room.

Lin Fushan pushed open the door, Qin Ping'an walked in, there was only a bed and a table in the room, Qin Ping'an pushed open the window, and saw the stern of the waves.

"Little Brother Qin, you change your clothes first, it's rare for you and me to fall in love so much, I'll go and order some food on the hour, and have a drink together later." Lin Fushan rubbed his hands and said with a smile, the road on the river is long, it is rare to meet someone who chats, anyway, there is nothing to do, just have a good chat.

Qin Ping'an had this intention, and before he could talk about the key point, he immediately gave up his hand and said with a smile: "Uncle Fushan, it's too polite, you and I fall in love." Don't be so polite. "Typical fake politeness.

Lin Fushan waved his hand, his eyes glared: "A little wine and meat, it's just to add to the fun, little brother Qin don't want to excuse himself." ”

After Lin Fushan finished speaking, he immediately strode away.

Qin Ping'an smiled, he was really human! Put down the bookcase, changed his clothes, sat at the table, thinking about whether to use his divine sense to check the ship, after thinking about it, forget it, sit quietly and wait!

After a while, Lin Fushan came in with a bottle of wine and two plates, and Qin Ping'an hurriedly took a handle, a plate of beef with sauce and a plate of peanuts.

Lin Fushan sat down, smiled, and greeted warmly: "Come on, little brother Qin, come and sit." ”

As soon as Qin Ping'an sat down, Lin Fushan filled a large glass, raised his glass and said: "Brother Qin, if you don't die in a catastrophe, you must have a cup of Houfu, you have to respect yourself." ”

Qin Ping'an said with a smile: "If you don't die in a big disaster, there will be a blessing in the future, it should be so!"

"Little brother, what a lot of wine!" Lin Fushan slapped the table and shouted arrogantly.

The two drank it all, Lin Fushan filled another cup, and said: "This cup has to be honored by the water god of the Li River, your life, thanks to the blessing of the water god!"

Hearing this, Qin Ping'an raised his wine glass, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Uncle Fushan, have you seen the water god of the Li River?"

After Lin Fushan finished drinking, he hesitated for a moment and said, "This ...... A water god, where can we see it, but it is said that this water god has really appeared, tomorrow we will arrive at the water temple, but also to place some tributes, blessed the road is smooth sailing. ”

Qin Ping'an knew this rule, and his father told himself to come, the god of water on the Li River, hehe, it will be the time of the sting in a few days, are you ready for the catastrophe of the Jiao?

The corners of Qin Ping'an's mouth grinned, and he drank all the wine, I haven't forgotten this account!
