The dispute in front of the restaurant came to an end, and people gave various praises to the two guards who had justly resolved the case. The shabby young man also knelt down and kowtowed in gratitude. When everyone thought of the honest young man who had just spoken out, they found that he had long since disappeared.
I saw the figure of that honest young man.
"It's a pity. I originally wanted to make friends."
The Feiyu-suited Jin Yiwei looked around and couldn't see the honest young man who spoke just now, so he couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, the honest young man they were thinking of had already crossed another street with his schoolbag slung across his body and a black wooden board under his arm.
When Zhu Ping'an returned to the inn from the original route, three large ships on the Yangtze River were going down the river. The three large ships were like a combination of official ships and painted boats. They were thick and strong, but also had pavilions and pavilions. They were safe, beautiful and comfortable, far beyond ordinary passenger ships.
can be compared.
On the high pavilion of a large ship, there were brocade quilts and carpets sewn from animal furs, and the surrounding railings were also covered with brocade quilts.
A girl as lazy as a demon sat comfortably on the carpet, leaning against the railing, holding a scroll in her snow-white jade hands, with a poem on the title page:
"There are trees in the mountains, but the trees have branches, and my heart is happy for you, but you don't know it."
The girl's long black hair is tied up in a princess bun with a red jade coral hairpin with tassels hanging from it. When the breeze blows, the tassels sway, highlighting the girl's elegance and beauty. The girl's skin is beautiful.
Snow, as white as jade, with red lips and white teeth, looks attentive and lively. Sitting there, she looks like a vixen and a succubus, turning the pages of a book comfortably.
There is also a little maid with a round face and a bun, who is kneeling on the carpet. She stretches out her slender hands and gently massages the slender legs of the lazy girl. She is very pink and tender.
His little face was flushed.
Down at the attic, a few old women with big shoulders and round waists sat on stools, looked at the Yangtze River, and ate melon seeds.
Further down, there are dozens of guards in uniform uniforms, with scimitars at their waists scattered around the side of the ship. They are watching the passing boats and boats with vigilance. There is even a man with sharp eyes carrying a long bow on the bow of the ship.
.
Although ordinary knives and the like were not regulated in the Ming Dynasty, bows, crossbows and armor were still regulated weapons.
In the Ming Dynasty, there was little difference between carrying a long bow and a crossbow and fighting a rocket launcher in modern times. But the man on the bow of this big ship dared to carry a long bow and swagger through the city.
Whenever passing ships saw these three large ships, they would stay away from them. No checkpoint along the way dared to block these three large ships. They would all let them go as soon as possible, and by the way, they would also replenish the ships with fresh fruits and vegetables, etc. So these three ships
A large ship sailed down the river at a speed that was more than twice as fast as an ordinary ship.
"Miss, look, there's a big fish swimming over there."
The little maid Baozi who was giving a massage suddenly saw a big white spindle-shaped fish more than two meters long swimming fast not far from the boat, and suddenly jumped out of the water like a horse.
, so the little maid Baozi opened her mouth wide and started chattering excitedly.
Hearing this, the lazy girl turned her eyes away from the book and turned to the river. She looked at the big fish not far away, and then placed the book in her hand gently on the forehead of the little maid Baozi.
He knocked once, raised the corners of his lips and said:
"Stupid girl. What a big fish. It's very strange to see it rarely. It's a cum, with a body like a sturgeon and a tail like a fish. Guo Pu of the Jin Dynasty described it in "Erya Notes". The dirty fishermen here often call it Jiang Ma, and
You are equally ignorant!"
"Miss, you are so amazing."
The little maid Baozi covered her forehead and looked at her young lady with admiration. Stars almost appeared in her eyes.
"I told you to read more books a long time ago."
The lazy girl once again tapped the scroll in her hand on the forehead of the little maid Baozi.
"It hurts, Miss. I also want to read a book, but I fall asleep as soon as I read it. It's so strange." The little maid Baozi covered her forehead and looked at her young lady aggrievedly.
Hearing this, the lazy girl couldn't help but roll her eyes in amusement.
This stupid girl has the nerve to say that every time she is asked to read, her little head is moving bit by bit, like a kowtowing insect.
"Oh, Miss, I heard the big guy on the bow said that we can reach Yingtian in the evening. It's only less than two days. It's so fast." The little maid with a bun face said with her fingers.
"It's naturally faster to go down the river. Once you turn from Yingtian to the Grand Canal, it won't be so fast." The lazy girl turned her gaze from the Yangtze River to the north and said calmly.
"Well, what if we can't catch up with the old lady's sixtieth birthday? They are..."
When Baozi's little maid said this, she suddenly thought that she, a little maid, could not speak ill of her master's family, so she quickly covered her little mouth with her two chubby hands, covering the words she was about to say, and let out a whimper.
The sound of woo.
The lazy girl didn't take it seriously at all. She raised the corners of her lips in a playful arc, gliding her long black hair with her snow-white fingertips, and rolled her eyes disdainfully.
"I haven't seen that old witch for a long time, haha. I didn't expect that old witch to be more lively and joyful. My good granddaughter must give her a big gift. By the way, I wonder if the eldest cousin and the second cousin are okay, haha.
"Giggle"
The lazy girl curled her lips, rolled her dark eyes, and giggled.
The little maid Baozi who was doing the massage next to her couldn't help but trembled when she heard her young lady's laughter.
There was laughter and laughter in the attic for a while.
The old woman eating melon seeds in the attic shrank her neck and suddenly felt a bit of a chilly feeling.
"Let me tell you, Miss, the guide said that the river horse has appeared, the storm has started, and the weather will change. I hope Miss will return to the room quickly and take care of yourself."
The man on the bow of the ship carrying a long bow stood under the pavilion, respectfully clasped his fists and shouted back to the pavilion.
The guide on the boat is an old fisherman on the Yangtze River. He is very familiar with the Yangtze River. The guide said that there is a danger of storm, so there will be a storm in ten out of ten. I remembered what the master said before leaving, the man carrying a long bow on his back.
Not daring to make any mistakes, after listening to the guide, I immediately came over to report back.
"I know, you all should pay attention to your safety. When you get to the capital, I will ask Daddy for a reward for you." A lark-like voice came from the pavilion.
"Thank you, miss."
The man carrying the long bow cupped his fists and thanked him, then turned around to arrange things on the ship. The storm was coming, and there was a lot to prepare for.
"Miss, do you think my uncle will be so surprised when he sees us?" The little maid Baozi said suddenly while packing her things, blinking at her young lady with her big eyes.
"Who has the time to see him?" The lazy girl closed the book in her hand and spoke calmly.
"But we are going to the capital, so we will definitely meet." Baozi's little maid said with a puffed mouth.
"It's just a toad, who rarely sees him."
The lazy girl stood up, flattened her lips, and got off the pavilion. (To be continued)
