Chapter 587: I Can't Swim
Throughout the ages, the Mongols are certainly the most powerful people in Chinese history, but at the same time, the Yuan Dynasty founded by the Mongols was also the least good at governing the country. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Not only does it not know how to govern and develop social productive forces, but it also kills the remnants of the Song Dynasty who were male farmers and female weavers.
As early as the founding of the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, although Kublai Khan once adopted Yelu Chucai's political views and was warned by his uncle Qian Qingjian, he relatively adopted a policy of softness, but this policy did not last long.
In the short reign of less than 100 years of the Yuan Dynasty, for the entire land of China, many remnants of the Song Dynasty were natives, and a very small number of Mongols were rulers, and there is no doubt that the prevailing truth in this universe is that no ruler will give the natives a true equal status at any time and place.
Since there was no real equality, there was a lot of brutality and abuse, and as a result, a large number of remnants of the Song Dynasty were tortured or fled, and a large amount of arable land was left uncultivated, and finally starved for thousands of miles, and the people were struggling to survive.
In the land of Shenzhou in this era, there will naturally be no beautiful scenery, and among the ruined villages, even if there are ten thousand taels of gold, they can't buy anything interesting, and Qian Qingjian's family, who traveled all the way west, had to immerse themselves in the joy of "Journey to the West".
In the world of thousands of miles of red land and mourning and wilderness, a large number of thieves and bandits can also be born, whether it is the king of the mountains, or the grass is the coward, whether it is the one who raises the rod and kills the officials and robs the grain, or the collusion with the government to plunder the people, in short, there are as many as carp crossing the river.
These bandits either gathered in the mountains and forests, or gathered in the abyss, all over the corners of China.
They are led by strong martial artists, rely on robbery for a living, and of course they will not let go of the wealthy children of a wealthy family who are traveling west.
No, Qian Qingjian's carriage has not yet arrived in Jiangzhou, and more than a dozen waves of bandits who stepped on plates along the way have passed, all of whom are people with martial arts. It's just that perhaps they noticed that there were more than a hundred strong men behind the rutted carriage, so these bandits and bandits did not attack immediately.
Of course, these situations fell into the eyes of the driver Bai Guishou, and Bai Guishou told Qian Qingjian again.
According to Bai Guishou's analysis, these thieves thought that the more than 100 people behind them were also the forces of a certain strongman, and they were worried that they would not be able to keep the robbed money if they robbed the car, and they would be blackened by the 100 people in the back, so they didn't start.
After discovering the bandits' covetousness, Chang Jinpeng in the back rushed to the side of the carriage and asked Qian Qingjian if he took the initiative to attack and kill these miscellaneous fish watching around.
Qian Qingjian couldn't make up his mind in his heart, but he was very calm on the surface, according to the usual practice, first solicited the democratic opinions of the two wives, and then he concentrated in the end.
"This world is really chaotic, and it's really not easy to get out. If you have money, you can't go all over the world, you must have martial arts, and martial arts can't be too low. This is the sigh in Qian Qingjian's heart.
In this era, it is difficult to move an inch with reason, and it is even more difficult to move an inch with money, and it is better to be safe than without money, and only force is the guarantee for traveling all over the world.
Yin Susu means not to rush to do it first, defeating these path-finding shrimp soldiers and crabs will not have any deterrent effect, if you want to fight, wait until they are all together, and then use a thunderous blow to kill the leader of the bandits, so as not to have endless trouble along the way.
Wei Siniang only listened to Yin Susu, her internal strength was inexplicably lost when she first met Qian Qingjian, and after seven years of cultivation, although she recovered most of it, she could never catch up with Yin Susu's martial arts.
So Qian Qingjian obeyed the will of the people and decided to wait and see what happened. Ignore these bandits who step on the plate for the time being. Unexpectedly, the road ahead turned out to be safe and sound, and until the east bank of Poyang Lake in Hukou County, no one came to block the road and cut the path.
Facing the wide water surface of Poyang Lake, Qian Qingjian and others were a little worried, there was no bridge on the water, only a ferry boat went back and forth between the east and west banks, but the carrying capacity of this boat was quite limited, and it could only carry more than ten people across the lake at most.
There was no way, Qian Qingjian had no choice but to let Chang Jinpeng and the others go over half of it first, so that there were people from the Heavenly Eagle Sect on both sides of the east and west, and he was not afraid that someone would plot.
After the ferry went back and forth four times, when it was the turn of Qian Qingjian's family and the carriage to get on the boat, Yin Susu sneered and drove all the captains on the boat down. The water strength of the Sky Eagle Sect does not allow the giant whale gang at sea, and among the accompanying elites, there are their own sailors who are skilled in water and skilled in handling the boat, but they do not give the captain of this ferry a chance to make trouble.
Although the captains were unwilling, Bai Guishou had a ferocious face and wanted to attack, so he had to give up the ferry and let the guests ferry themselves.
When the ferry left the east shore and gradually reached the center of the lake, the captains shouted, and some of them scattered along the shore, and some threw themselves into the water, but they were all shot on the spot by the Aquila cultists who had been prepared for a long time.
When Qian Qingjian saw the scene on the shore, he immediately understood that these captains must be water bandits, and he realized almost at the same time that the boat was afraid that something would happen in the lake.
How could those captains abandon the ferry boat for dinner and run away with their lives?
"Husband, will you be water?" Yin Susu asked Qian Qingjian calmly, of course she also understood the power.
Qian Qingjian's face turned yellow, and he said nervously: "I won't!" He grew up in a barren mountainous area, and he was a landlubber when he was a child, and he never went down to any water except for bathing in the factory bath, and of course he couldn't swim.
Yin Susu can swim, if it weren't for Qian Qingjian crossing over, then according to the plot in the original book, on the night of April 30 seven years ago, she would dive in the West Lake and beat the Shaolin monk to death with a poisonous needle.
"Husband, don't be afraid, if we fall into the water and can't float for a while, you can hold your breath and wait for me to rescue. Yin Susu quickly removed a wooden board from the carriage on the deck and tied it to Qian Qingjian's body, if the wooden board did not fall off Qian Qingjian's body, he should not sink and float.
After finishing Qian Qingjian, she turned around and asked Wei Siniang: "Siniang, do you know how to water?"
Wei Siniang shook her head again and again, the girl who grew up in the Kunlun Mountains also can't swim.
Yin Susu dismantled another wooden board to tie Wei Siniang, "Don't be afraid, you follow me, you have internal strength, as long as you hold your breath and wait for me to help you reach the water, you will breathe......"
As soon as Yin Susu said this, he only heard a few crisp sounds of "click, click" in the boat, and several holes that were larger than the doors and windows had been broken on the deck, and then a turbulent lake water poured in from the holes. The ferry immediately sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Don't be afraid!"
Qian Qingjian only heard Yin Susu's voice, and fell into the water, he sank much faster than the ferry, because the place where he was standing was exactly the center of a big hole. Not only that, but he also felt his legs being pulled down, and a clear curtain of water covered his vision. (To be continued.) )
