Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Three Erniang Visiting the Prison
Li Kui saw the captain rocking the boat and walked away, and he couldn't help but jumped up in anger.
Chao Yong looked at the hundred or so big men behind him and knew that the boatman was not a coward, so he had to say: "You go and hide in the back first. It's just me, Mu Hong, and Ma Lin who will stay here. We'll talk about it when the boatman comes over."
Everyone had no other choice but to hide in the reeds behind.
Fortunately, this ferry is next to the main road, and there are many passengers coming and going on weekdays. Many boatmen like to come here for private ferries.
Not long after, another ferry appeared on the river.
Seeing two customers and a salesman by the river, they came over.
When they arrived, Chao and Yong had just jumped on the boat when Li Kui couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out with two axes.
Just when the boatman was about to discuss the price with Chao Yong, he saw a fierce black man coming from the reeds on the bank with two axes. Several big men stood up behind him. His face changed drastically, and he turned around and jumped into the river.
go.
Fortunately, Chao Yong had quick eyesight and quick hands. He rushed over, grabbed the boatman's leg and pulled him back.
The captain had already jumped overboard, but was pulled back. Seeing that he could not escape, he was so frightened that he knelt on the board of the boat, took out dozens of pennies from his body, and begged: "This is the only money I have with me, heroes."
Please spare my life. I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child. I beg you heroes to spare my life."
Chao Yong pulled the boatman up, took out an ingot of five taels of silver, stuffed it into the boatman's hand, and said: "Brother, don't worry, we are not strongmen, we are just afraid that you won't dare to come over with so many people standing here. That's why we let them hide."
At the back, as long as you cross us, this ingot of silver will be yours."
Hearing this, the captain looked at everyone with doubts and doubts, and said: "So that's it, then please get on the boat and I'll send all the guests over."
Chao Yong was afraid that the boatman would dive into the water again, and they would not be able to cross the river without anyone to drive the boat, so he could only stand next to the boatman and watch.
This ship is not big and can only carry ten people at a time.
After crossing the river, Li Kui and others disembarked. Chao Yong said: "There are dozens of people on the other side. Please make a few more trips to get everyone across. I will give you another five taels of silver."
Seeing Chao Yong staring at him, the boatman could not escape, so he could only secretly pray that Chao Yong would keep his word.
After two more crossings, another boatman was obtained. The two boats made several trips together and ferried everyone over.
Chao Yong followed the boatman several times before he suddenly came to his senses. When he asked, he found out that three of his own soldiers knew how to drive a boat.
So after the two boatmen docked, Chao Yong bought the boat from them.
The two of them saw that Chao Yong and others were holding on to swords and guns, and they were happy to escape with their lives. Chao Yong gave them more money, but they didn't dare to bargain, so they threw them off the boat and ran away.
Chao Yong left three soldiers who knew how to drive boats to wait by the river, while a large group of troops came to Jiangzhou City.
When they were still five miles away from Jiangzhou City, they saw Xue Yong leading a dark and thin man looking for him.
When Xue Yong saw Chao Yong, he came up quickly and said, "I thought you were trapped by something, and you were about to go look for it."
Chao Yong smiled awkwardly and said: "These many people have gone through a lot of trouble crossing the river."
Hou Jian looked at the number of people behind him. Although they had dispersed into several groups, they were still very eye-catching. He couldn't help but said: "When these many people approach the city, the officers and soldiers must be alert."
Hearing this, Xue Yong frowned and said, "When there are few people, I'm afraid I won't be able to occupy the city gate."
Li Kui shouted: "I alone can capture the Bird City Gate, so just go in with confidence."
After hearing this, Chao Yong thought for a while and said: "Li Kui and Xiang Chong are leading a few people to watch outside the city. Li Gun is leading a few people to be in the city. A dozen people should be able to support the people outside the city to support them."
Li Kui patted his chest and said, "Brother Yong, don't worry, with me Tieniu here, they will definitely not be able to close the bird door."
Chao Yong talked to Li Kui for a while about the importance of the city gate, and then everyone divided into several groups and entered the city.
Ma Lin pretended to be a salesman, pushing a cart, and paid some money. The gatekeepers let him into the city without even looking carefully.
When they arrived near the cell, Hou Jian asked everyone to disperse and only led Chao Yong and Sun Erniang to the entrance of the alley.
Chao Yong looked at the two prisoners chatting in front of the cell door and said: "I heard from Tieniu that after entering this door, there is a yard inside, and then there is the dungeon. Er Niang, you first find a way to get in and protect yourself.
Uncle Song and Dean Dai, we will rush in shortly."
Sun Erniang nodded and said: "Don't worry, if you want to hurt them both, you have to get through me first."
The two small cellmen at the cell door cheered up when they saw three people approaching with food boxes.
A prisoner looked at Sun Erniang's voluptuous figure and couldn't help but smile and said to the person next to him: "This little lady has plenty of breast milk. I don't know which prisoner's wife she is."
The prisoner next to him looked at Sun Erniang sinisterly, winked at the prisoner next to him, and said, "Whether we let you in or not, isn't it up to us brothers?"
The little prison boy also understood and immediately put on a strictly guarded look.
When the three of them got closer, they shouted: "The prison is a very important place and no one can get close to it."
Hou Jian hurriedly bowed and said: "The two eldest brothers are accommodating. The younger ones are delivering meals to Dean Dai."
When the two heard that they were delivering food to Dai Zong, they couldn't help frowning and said: "He is a repeat offender. He will be interrogated and executed tomorrow. The governor has an order and he is not allowed to visit."
Hou Jian took two steps forward, stuffed Xiao Laozi with two ingots of silver from his sleeve pocket, and said, "It's a convenience for me, because I have to be executed tomorrow, so I came here to give him some food and wine. See him for the last time."
one side."
While the prisoner was collecting the money, he was confused: "Dean Dai treated us well before, but the magistrate has an order. If Dean Dai escapes, we will treat him as an adulterer. The relationship is too big.
You have to be careful."
Hou Jian saw that he had collected the money and knew that there was still something going on. He bowed and said, "Brother, it will be convenient. In this way, the two of us will not go in, but she will be let in. What do you think?"
Sun Erniang gave the little prisoner a charming look and said, "Brother, please let me in."
The little prison boy was so charmed by Sun Erniang's charming eyes that his legs were weak. Seeing that the only weapons on Sun Erniang's body were the pair of asses, but he was good at serving the man, so I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to rob the prison.
The two little prisoners looked at each other and felt that there should be no problem, so they said: "Then only this little lady will go in. As for whether you can look at Dean Dai when you get inside, you have to look at the prison inside."
Sun Erniang heard this and hurriedly said, "Thank you two brothers."
The little prisoner watched Sun Erniang twisting her plump body to go in. He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said, "Who are you, Dean Dai? I haven't heard that Dean Dai has a wife before?"
Hou Jian clasped his fists and said, "This villain is Hou Jian. He is a tailor. He is working in the magistrate's house these days. He has some friendship with Dean Dai. I heard that he will be interrogated tomorrow, so I came to visit him."
When the prisoner heard this, he was surprised and said: "So you are Hou Jian, who is known as the first-hand tailor. I have heard of your reputation for a long time, but we cannot afford to hire you, the first-hand tailor."
Hou Jian saw that Xiao Laozi had heard of his name, so he stayed at the door and started chatting with the two of them. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Piaotian Literature Register to recommend this work, yours
