Everyone looked at the people walking behind, and Zhang Dan also asked everyone doubtfully.
Because the standard of these ships is obviously not that of a cauldron.
"Maybe it's a fishing boat? Which Utoto here doesn't rely on this giant wild river to make a living.
And didn't Pavilion Chief Gangsun say that all the water bandits in this area were taken away by the Li family... No, they were wiped out by others. Where are the water bandits still coming?"
This is Dongmin Ranger Ding Sheng, and he is still lying to himself.
"Then why is everyone speeding up?"
After saying that, Zhang Dan pointed to a cannon boat that passed them and asked doubtfully.
"Hey, you're a coward. Hurry up and get the boys to shake harder." Sun Tingzhang said, give Zhang Dan a hit when he jumps up.
Zhang Chong also reacted and immediately shouted towards the warehouse:
"Man, let's start the chant and shake it up."
After finishing speaking, he explained to the confused Zhang Dan:
"No matter if they are water bandits or not, we can't be the last one."
"I understand, it's like trying to survive in a tiger's mouth. You can't be the last one. As expected of you, Ting Zhang Sun, you are a cunning and cunning person."
As he said this, Zhang Dan even showed off his strength to Sun Xun. No surprise, he was beaten up by Sun Tingchang again.
At this time, looking at Juyeze from a high altitude, the canoe boats looked like a flock of sheep being chased by three or two wild wolves.
They kept moving forward, but no ship ever planned to turn around to see if the wolf was a real wolf or a fake wolf.
Maybe, this is human nature.
But regardless of the motive, those stray ships were indeed thrown away by the fleet.
Maybe it was a nearby fishing boat as Ding Sheng said. Otherwise, how could the heavy canal boat be able to move away easily?
Everyone also understood, and the fleet began to slow down again, and even the sailors on several close canal boats were joking with each other.
It's as if the previous scene of you chasing after me and not falling behind has never happened.
The atmosphere relaxed, as if he suddenly remembered, Ding Sheng asked Zhang Chong:
"By the way, I don't know what my brother's name is. It's a bit rude to keep calling Brother Chong by his name."
"Hey, if you don't mind, just do the same as them and call me Shi Zaizi.
For a poor person like me, if we can eat, we have to go all out, so how can we talk about being abrupt or not?
Even if I don’t know what Brother Sheng’s cousin is, I might as well address him with some respect.”
"Hey hey" was a bit embarrassing to be said.
Ding Sheng touched his head and muttered a few words:
"Big utensils, big utensils, I am so prosperous, so I have to use big utensils."
"Ding Daqi, haha, it's not better than I Chong Ge. By the way, I heard from Chief Sun Ting before that you are a child of a Confucian classics family. The name given to you by this elder is quite bad."
Hearing this little kid call him again, Chief Sun Ting raised his hand again.
When he was in Dashangli before, he didn't realize that his grandson deserved a beating so much. However, he was also quite curious about Ding Sheng's identity.
Ding Sheng was embarrassed by being seen by everyone.
He waved his hands, as if he didn't dare to follow her.
"Don't dare to climb into other people's houses. Don't dare to climb into other people's houses. The Ding family governs the Spring and Autumn Annals, and Ding Chunqiu La is a benevolent and righteous gentleman who understands the truth."
Although our family is surnamed Ding and we live in a poor place in the Spring and Autumn Period, we were probably the same family more than a hundred years ago. We have long since separated.
However, when people divide the pork every year, they have never forgotten how benevolent and righteous we were during the Spring and Autumn Period."
So that’s the case, no wonder you want to be a ranger in a foreign country?
Non-staff members are not allowed to find work on their own.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Ding Sheng started talking again:
"I was fighting with everyone before. I saw you delivering water and millet to the warehouse every day. What kind of big shot is this?"
"What a big shot. He's just a soldier."
Zhang Dan, whose words were faster than his brain, shouted out without thinking.
Zhang Chong quickly changed his words:
"He's just like you."
"Like me? A ranger too?"
"No, he is a pitiful man, and you are a happy man. Neither of them are ordinary people."
Ding Sheng was puzzled and felt more and more that he could no longer ride on this boat.
I have to pick up my luggage and run away.
————————————————————————
In the evening, each ship found a docking island in the middle of the lake, dropped its anchor, and prepared to rest.
Zhang Chong and others also lit torches to warn the ships behind them. Although there were fewer ships sailing at night, there would eventually be ships. If they stopped the ships without lighting torches, the ships behind them might hit them.
By this time, the ladies had already prepared the meal.
Originally, they didn’t eat at night. They, poor people, only had two meals a day, which was not as good as the rich people’s three meals and four meals.
But isn't it on a boat? It's better to eat more than to be lent to powerful men by those hamsters for loan sharking, and it will cause less harm to poor people like us.
These truths were also told by the little boss Zhang Chong, and even the most powerful master, Mr. Sun, did not deny them.
So, eat, eat hard for me.
People who work hard have a large appetite, and if they hear this truth, they are like wolves and tigers, and the wind blows away the clouds.
Among them, the one who ate the most was the youngest, Zhang Chong, who had an unsatisfactory stomach.
Hey, I feel sorry for the adults in his family, and I also feel sorry for the baby. It seems he never had enough to eat.
Zhang Chong didn't care about the pitiful looks cast by his scheduled "team members", he only felt full of power.
He had discovered it a long time ago, partly because of his golden finger, he absorbed it very quickly.
During this period of time, through exercise and a reasonable diet, his muscles and stature were as strong as if he had taken a breath, and his original single clothes had almost turned into short shirts.
Yes, people rock the oar as torture, but he sees it as exercise.
In his previous life, there were many rowing machines like this in the gym, but now he rows every day. Moreover, although the millet he eats is still in the shell, who told him to digest it well, so it is more nutritious to eat this way.
Now, he's not bragging.
Among the men on this ship, every one of them is taller than him.
When they rowed, they only wore calf-nosed trousers. There were about ten men, all naked and red, exuding fishy hormones.
But he is the only one whose muscles are like cast iron and whose frame is like iron. Regardless of his face, he is like an Optimus Prime, a hero with golden beams.
No, Pavilion Chief Sun called him more and more, and even the handsome servants called him less.
So eat, eat hard for me.
After eating, Zhang Chong stretched his muscles a few times.
Everyone was looking for a place to sleep with straw mats in their hands, and Zhang Chong wanted to sleep too.
It's his shift tomorrow and he won't take a break, so he won't be energetic the next day.
——————————————
As the moon rises, there are fishing fires thousands of miles away.
It was already late at night, and the whole world was silent.
The sound of wind and water intertwined with people's dreams, full of life.
But at this moment, the rustling sound kept coming to mind.
Duman, who had been sleeping next to Zhang Chong, woke up.
He is preoccupied and always sleeps lightly.
He listened attentively for a while and felt something was wrong, so he made trouble with Zhang Chong again.
He did not dare to call Zhang Dan because he felt that he was not stable and would not be surprised when the time came.
Zhang Chong was woken up by the bucket and was confused. He suddenly looked at Duman's gesture and remained silent for a while.
Then, he stood up, took the ax commonly used by boatmen, and took out a halberd from the bamboo basket made by his mother.
After that, he motioned for Duman to follow him and slowly woke up Bangfu nearby.
First it was the little dad, then Zhang Dan, and then Heifu. In addition to the boatman who was guarding the deck, there were more than fifty people in the warehouse, and even the man with a fold of hakama who had been wandering in the warehouse were all pulled up by Zhang Chong.
Don't be sad now, just risk your life.
That's right, Zhang Chong and the others encountered water bandits.
Everyone picked up the guy who took advantage of them and gave it a try, but except for Zhang Chong who had an ax and a halberd, and the ranger Ding Sheng had a ring-headed sword, the others basically only had whistle sticks, and no swords, guns, swords or halberds.
The atmosphere has reached its lowest level, and everyone's breath is almost gone.
At this time, the cabin door opened, and a soaked man came in with a claw dagger, followed by three wet men.
In the darkness, a flash of white light flew by, and a flying ax was thrust into the man's head. Red and white splashed everywhere, and half of the man's head was ripped open at this moment.
Zhang Chong flew out of the axe, accelerated his body, stabbed one person's throat with his halberd, pulled it out, and stabbed another person's throat again.
Such a cruel scene suddenly appeared in the eyes of everyone on the ship, and everyone was confused.
The last water pirate finally realized what was happening, rolled onto the deck, and was about to jump off the ship.
However, Zhang Chong was caught up and stabbed through the back of his heart with a flying halberd.
At this moment, the whole ship woke up, shouted, and rushed onto the deck with whistle sticks in hand.
A few of them were still excited. When they saw someone lying on the deck, they smashed him hard until it was covered with blood. Only then were they caught by their companions, signaling that the bandit was dead.
All the water pirates on the boat were killed, but no one was happy at all.
The reason is that at this time, Ohnozawa was full of cries of death and begging for mercy. People kept jumping off the ship, and people kept fighting with their lives.
There are even several ships that have been lit with lights. They are like huge torches, devouring life and exuding fear.
They also saw that some ships had pulled up stone anchors, but they were heading downstream.
They actually walked back.
Duman looked at it intently, and then looked again before he was sure that he had found Zhang Chong.
At this time, Zhang Chong had just pulled out the halberd from the back of the water bandits, and asked someone to put away the daggers of the four water bandits.
I gave a handful to my little dad, Zhang Dan also got a handful, Hei Fu got a handful, and even the man with pleated hakama got a handful.
Hei Fu was still reluctant and was hesitant about using a knife. He was kicked by Zhang Chong and took it honestly.
Duman found Zhang Chong and whispered:
"There's something wrong with this. I took a closer look and found that the boats that were on fire and those that lifted anchor and ran away were all cannon boats from Le'an County.
If you look at the tribute ships from Jinan County and Jibei Kingdom, they are all fighting each other. Why is there such a big difference?"
Zhang Chong also squinted for a while and said uncertainly:
"What do you mean, there is a traitor in the Le'an County canal boats? Those going down the river were driven away by water bandits."
"That's what I mean. Otherwise, we can't explain it. We found out early, there weren't many water pirates coming up, and you, a warrior, were in the battle, so it ended so quickly. Are they all like this? So, I think this Le'an
There is something strange about the county."
"Let's not talk so much. First, you can ask people to get more torches and let the brothers fish out more people who have fallen into the water."
"Too many torches? I wanted you to put out the torches? Doesn't this increase the target? It's too dangerous." Duman quickly advised Zhang Chong.
Zhang Chong looked at the canal boats going down the river and waved his hand:
"It's important to save people, and with so many torches, people can't figure out how many ships we have. I think they don't want to be tough."
Duman also understood, and after a while, he took Zhang Dan to organize everyone to rescue the people who fell into the water.
At this time, the fighting on Ju Ye Ze was still continuing.
