44. The death of the master
Forty-fourth Death of the Master
The ship flew away and sailed towards Shenzhen, which was the fief of the Warring States Period and Chunshenjun, close to the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea, and the mouth of the Yangtze River.
Wang Shan looked at the owner of the plum garden who was covered with arrow wounds, and knew that he couldn't last long, he wanted to guard him by his side, Wang Shan hoped that he could support Shenzhen, if he could support Shenzhen, then his task would be completed.
Wang Shan sat on the chair next to the bed and opened the cabin window, the ship behind had already set off, bustling like a busy city, chasing them.
The sail had been raised to the highest point, and with the help of water and wind like an arrow, Wang Shan did not worry about being overtaken, the only worry was whether the owner of the plum garden could support it. The wind blew in through the window, and Wang Shan felt a little cool. He slowly closed the window.
"Ahem" The owner of the plum garden had already woken up from a coma, and after the wind blew through his body, he was a little sober. He beckoned Wang Shan to come over, Wang Shan walked in front of him, he gasped, and said intermittently: "I'm sorry, I can't take the princess back to Duanwang, I hope you can help me send the princess to Duanwang's side, this is the connector and contact information in Shenzhen, please." He slowly took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Wang Shan.
Wang Shan looked at him, took the cloth bag, and said with a smile: "If there is no trouble, you will definitely be fine, and when you arrive in Shenzhen, you can treat the disease." ”
The owner of the plum garden smiled bitterly: "Have you heard of the five-color stone?"
Wang Shan was taken aback, "It is the colorless and tasteless rumor in the rivers and lakes, but the person who has been poisoned by this poison and decided not to escape the five-color stone of the first strange poison in Miao Jiang for twelve hours." ”
The five-color stone is the medicine of the Miao Jiang wizard, and it is said that it is used to grind it into powder to make medicine, and the soaked potion is smeared on the hidden weapon arrows, and no one can solve this poison. Not even wizards. Five-color stone generally grows in the depths of the dense forest, in the extreme cathode cold place, in the middle of the cave, nourished by the water flow of yin qi, surrounded by miasma, generally rarely seen. The warriors of Miao Jiang used the potion it soaked to fight and hunt.
The owner of the plum garden smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, these arrows have been soaked in the five-colored stone potion, and I guess they won't be able to escape this catastrophe." So I can beg you to bring the princess to Golden State and hand it over to King Duan. ”
Wang Shan took the cloth bag, looked at the owner of the plum garden and said, "It doesn't have to be a five-color stone, you may have thought too much." ”
Mei Yuan's face was painful, he forcibly suppressed the coughing voice, and said slowly: "Can what Zhao Jingtian said be false? I understand that your mission is over, but I still beg you, you can escort the princess to Duanwang, and I can't find a suitable candidate for others, just when you see that I am a dying person, can you help the princess?"
Wang Shan looked at the owner of the plum garden and asked, "You can't protect yourself, and you still care so much about the princess, what are you for?"
The owner of the plum garden coughed and said: "My life was given by King Duan, even if I returned it to him, if it wasn't for King Duan, I would have died ten years ago." I beg you to fulfill my promise to King Duan, I have been waiting for five years, and finally I have waited for the princess, I promised King Duan to send the princess to Jinzhou, it seems that it will not be done, can you help me fulfill this promise?" he looked at Wang Shan with a look of anticipation.
Wang Shan looked at his pale face, and the beads of sweat on his face were handed down drop by drop, and he could see that he was enduring the pain, and it was only for a promise that he had held on until now.
Wang Shan nodded, a smile on his face. said: "In a while, you will disembark near Shenzhen, and I will take this ship to attract them, even if I do you the last favor." ”
Wang Shan looked at him and said, "You want to go to sea to lure them away, but you don't need to do this." ”
The owner of the plum garden smiled and said, "Otherwise, none of us can escape, so I must take the boat out to sea and lure them away." After you are gone, I will sail out into the sea, even if I bury myself. ”
Wang Shan slowly stood up and said, "You can rest first, and I'll go to them to discuss." ”
Wang Shan walked out of the hall and closed the hatch. The owner of the plum garden smiled and watched him leave, then closed his eyes and rested. He seemed to be enjoying the last part of his life. Yes, it's a very satisfying thing to walk away without any regrets.
Wang Shan walked up to the bow deck, looked back, the chasing ship was still nowhere to be seen, he understood that it must be the time of the people of the Twelve Docks, he knew that the chasing ship must be seen in the slow current near the mouth of the sea, he had to disembark in the place where the current was slow, and he could not let the chasing ship see him. He looked at the river and said nothing. Princess Zhao Cheng Xiao Ruoshui didn't know when Lu Dao also came to him, and the package was already on her back. It seems that the owner of the plum garden has arranged for someone to notify them.
Wang Shan looked at the river and said: "After a while, Xiao Xiao will take the princess to jump off the boat and protect the princess, we will not be able to dock and go down again, and the water will be a little slower for a while, and when the boat is close to the shore, we will get off the boat." ”
Zhao Cheng didn't say anything, and Xiao Ruoshui didn't squeak either. A smile crossed the princess's face, but it quickly disappeared, and she was soon infected by all the men on the ship who had gone to die, and she could not help but burst into tears.
Xiao Ruoshui reached out and handed over a handkerchief, and the princess wiped her eyes. She quickly escaped from her grief, and she knew that she could not escape fate, so she should meet the challenge of fate.
All people are chasing their own destiny, they are all racing against fate, what we can grasp is that we are in charge of our own destiny, and we will not be swayed by others.
The princess's eyes became serious, and there was a kind of confidence in them, and she knew that from this moment on, she would be in control of her own destiny.
The boat rowed quickly to the river, close to the place where the water flow was slow, Wang Shan lifted Xiao Ruoshui's shoulder, Zhao Cheng lifted the other shoulder, Xiao Ruoshui picked up the princess, and with the help of the two, his feet fell to the riverside without touching the water.
They looked back and saw that the ship was already flying towards the sea. Wang Shan beckoned, which was regarded as a convenience to the ship and all the people on board. Then he quickly ran towards the woods by the river. He was afraid that others would find out about them, so it would be in vain for the owner of the plum garden to work hard, and for others to die in vain.
Running into the woods, he was a little relieved, and took the three of them to the hint given by the owner of the plum garden, and slowly walked towards the location in the woods.
He walked slowly, and he didn't know what to say to them, so he waited until he got to the junction. But he had already made up his mind in his heart, he wanted to send the princess to Golden State, regardless of whether others went or not. Because he promised someone else.
Wang Shan is such a person, a promise. That's why he has so many friends, but he also has a lot of hardships and pains.
