Chapter 77: Overboard
The river is surging, a leaf of bamboo row goes down the river, as fast as a galloping horse, the three of them stand on the bamboo row and rise and fall with the river waves, they are like walking on the ground, attracting the peasants who are working in the fields on both sides of the strait to cheer and applaud.
"Whose son is a good man?"
On the bamboo raft in the middle of the river, the young man standing in the middle was about ten years old, born with a tiger's head, and when he heard the cheers on both sides of the strait, he was obviously very proud, and he actually walked around on the bamboo raft, which caused the village women and sisters-in-law to scream again and again.
The oldest young man standing behind the bamboo row frowned and reprimanded: "The three guns are standing, if they fall into the river, they won't catch you!" ”
The tiger-headed boy pouted and said: "Big brother, Poyang Lake can't drown me, what is a small Xinjiang River, it's too small to be a bathtub." ”
The young man at the helm in front of the bamboo row is about sixteen or seventeen years old, his skin is slightly shiny, his eyebrows are high, he is heroic, and he holds a bamboo pole and says lazily: "Three shots, the little Xinjiang can't drown you, but you will definitely not be able to catch up with our bamboo row, when you walk to Shangrao County by yourself, my eldest brother and I eat and drink at my brother-in-law's house, you can only drink the northwest wind." ”
"Cut, don't wait for me, go back and tell Dad, there is enough for you to feel good, hey, big brother, I will also tell Dad, the last time you peeked at the cuihua next door taking a bath." The child is triumphant.
The old young man behind the bamboo row suddenly blushed and argued: "Three shots, what happened last time...... It's a misunderstanding, it just so happens, the eldest brother didn't mean to peek, and I didn't say I wouldn't wait for you, that's what Erjian said, I want to sue you to sue him! ”
The young man in front of the bamboo row shrugged his shoulders and said, "Look, I just said that I can't take the fourth child, this little bastard has a backbone in the back of his head, and he does the work of whistleblowing!" ”
The tiger-headed boy clapped his hands and said: "Second brother, you are miserable, scold me bastard, that's not scolding our dad Baba, I'll tell my dad to go back and see if his old man doesn't break your three legs." ”
"You are ruthless, I am afraid of you!" The young man at the helm stabbed the bamboo pole into the river, and the bamboo row suddenly turned at an angle lightly, avoiding a piece of driftwood.
The bamboo row galloped downstream along the Xinjiang River, and the outline of Shangrao County was already seen from afar, and it was estimated that there were still several miles of road.
At this moment, a water village appeared on the river in front, and the two bow fast boats quickly sailed out and stopped on the river, and the soldiers on the boat bent their bows and arrows to aim at the three people on the bamboo row, and shouted: "Immediately dock for inspection, otherwise you will be killed." ”
The young man at the helm honestly drove the bamboo raft to the water village, and a small flag (equivalent to the squad leader) asked with a straight face, "Where are you from?" ”
The young man at the helm smiled and said: "We are brothers, from Yugan County, to Shangrao County to visit relatives, there is a road guide issued by the local government, three shots, take out the road guide for the official to see." ”
The boy in the middle of the bamboo row took off the bamboo tube he was carrying, pulled out the stopper, took out a piece of official paper from it and handed it to the second brother in front.
"This is Lu Yin, please take a look, official!" The young man at the helm handed over the official document.
The little flag took it and looked at it carefully, and asked, "Who is Xie Yidao?" ”
The oldest young man behind the bamboo row replied, "I'm Xie Yidao!" ”
"Hehe, I'm Xie Erjian!" The young man at the helm pointed to the little boy behind him and continued: "He is Xie Sangun, my brother!" ”
"Tsk, one sword, two swords and three shots, are you Lao Tzu opening an iron shop?" Xiaoqi pouted.
The young man at the helm smiled: "That's not it, my father is a fisherman, and our ancestors have been fishermen for three generations!" ”
"No wonder the bamboo raft is so slippery!" Xiao Qi led the way back to Xie Erjian, and said coldly: "The river in front is preparing to hold a dragon boat race, temporarily blocking the river!" ”
"Scared? So what to do? ”
Xiaoqi said with a cold face: "What do I care about you, I can't live now anyway!" ”
The eldest Xie Yidao said: "Second brother, it's not far anyway, why don't we go ashore and walk!" ”
So the three of them directly abandoned the bamboo raft and landed on the land route, and a soldier next to Xiaoqi pouted and said: "Three idiots, you can't get it if you pay a few pennies, it's really stupid." ”
"Okay, at first glance, it's a child from a poor family, and he doesn't have much money on him." Xiaoqi said lightly.
The three brothers of the Xie family went ashore and ran in the direction of the city, and the distance of three or four miles was actually completed in ten minutes with the footsteps of three people.
"Wow, it's so hilarious!"
The three brothers of the Xie family came to the vicinity of the Nancheng wharf, but saw that the two sides of the strait were full of people, and the race had obviously just begun.
On the edge of the dock downstream of the stands, Xu Jin and others were watching the dragon boat competition, among which Xiao Nu'er and Fei Xiaoyu were the most excited, and the two of them shouted and jumped, cheering for the dragon boat they were optimistic about.
The drumming sound was really infectious, and Xu Jin couldn't help but be a little excited to see it.
At this time, a big man with ill intentions in the crowd quietly approached, and suddenly accelerated and crashed into Xu Jin's back, it happened that the little slave moved his position in excitement, and the person hit Xu Jin's back, Xu Jin suddenly bumped into the little slave, and the little slave subconsciously grabbed Fei Xiaoyu next to him, and Fei Xiaoyu grabbed Fei Ruyi next to him.
So, a string of people screamed and fell into the river!
"Someone has fallen into the river!" People in the vicinity screamed for shelter, and more people stumbled and fell into the river
The big man who hit the person was stunned for a moment, he originally just wanted to push Xu Jin into the river, but he didn't want to cause a chain reaction, but this guy didn't stay, and immediately turned around and fled.
"Girl......"
"Third sister, fifth sister!"
"Uncle Ten, little slave!"
Fei Jixiang and the girls screamed in shock, and the two cows jumped into the river to save people.
Although Xu Jin is also familiar with the nature of water, he used to swim in his own swimming pool in his previous life, which is very different from the undulating river, so as soon as he fell into the river, he was carried downstream by the turbulent river, but fortunately he remained calm and hurriedly grabbed the nearest little slave and Fei Xiaoyu.
"Uncle Ten!" Erniu's water nature is obviously good, and he caught up at once.
"Erniu, save them first, I can still hold on!" Xu Jin shouted.
Fei Xiaoyu and Xiao Nu'er obviously didn't understand water, and the two of them drank a few big mouthfuls of water, if Xu Jin hadn't caught them, I'm afraid they would have sunk.
Erniu hurriedly lifted the little slave and Fei Xiaoyu and sent them to the shore, and a kind person on the shore helped pull them up.
"Save the third sister, save the third sister!" Fei Jixiang on the shore screamed in horror, because Fei Ruyi had sunk and quickly drifted downstream, and only a handful of hair could be seen now.
Xu Jin didn't care about the danger at this time, a fierce man stabbed down, and quickly caught up, fortunately, the wharf is a small river bay, and the water flow is relatively stable, so he was caught up by Xu Jin, stretched out his hand to the water, and grabbed Fei Ruyi's bun.
Xu Jin secretly screamed a fluke, and hurriedly lifted Fei Ruyi to the surface, wow...... Fei Ruyi came out of the water, choked out a mouthful of water, and then coughed violently, grabbing his hands indiscriminately, Xu Jin was accidentally grabbed by her.
Xu Jin secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, Fei Ruyi had already attached himself like an octopus, which was completely an instinctive reaction when people fell into the water to survive.
"It's over!" Xu Jin was hugged by Fei Ruyi, and he couldn't use his hands and feet at all, and the two of them suddenly accelerated downstream.
Xu Jin threw his feet desperately, but it was of little use at all, and the two were entangled and sank into the river.
"Brother-in-law, Erniu, save your brother-in-law!" The little slave who came ashore screamed loudly, and tears rolled down his face.
Er Niu was thinking about jumping into the river, and the two figures were faster than him, swishing......
Xie Yidao and Xie Erjian jumped directly from the river bank nearly five or six meters in a vertical direction, and plunged into the water, like two dragons out of the sea, swimming like arrows to the location where Xu Jin and Fei Ruyi sank into the river.
The tiger-headed Xie Sangun reached out and patted the little slave who was crying on the ground, and said in a good time: "Sensei cry, my eldest brother and second brother made a move, and the dragon lord didn't dare to include your brother-in-law." ”
As soon as the words ended, the people watching from the shore cheered in unison: "Fished, fished!" ”
Sure enough, I saw the Xu family brothers holding up a ball of things left and right, and it was Xu Jin and Fei Ruyi who were tightly entangled together.
"Uncle Ten!"
"Brother-in-law!"
"Sister!"
"Girl!"
Xiao Nu'er and Fei Xiaoyu were surprised, and Xie Sangun said proudly: "Look at what I said, the Dragon King didn't dare to accept it!" ”
At this time, who has time to take care of this kid, the little slave, Er Niu, the Fei sisters and all the maids all hugged forward, and pulled up Xu Jin and Fei Ruyi, who were sent to the shore.
Wow......
As soon as Xu Jin came ashore, he stretched out his hand to hook his throat and spit out a large amount of river water, embarrassed.
"Third sister, third sister, wake up!" Fei Jixiang and Fei Xiaoyu knelt next to the unconscious Fei Ruyi and cried.
Xu Jin couldn't help but be startled, and he didn't care that his mouth and nose were spraying water, so he hurriedly crawled over and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Get out of the way!" ”
Fei Jixiang, Fei Xiaoyu, and a group of maids hurriedly got out of the way.
At this time, Fei Ruyi was soaking wet, his hair bun was also scattered, his clothes were close to the carcass, his curves were exposed, his lower abdomen was slightly raised, and he obviously drank a lot of river water.
Xu Jin didn't have time to care about what men and women could kiss at this time, so he hurriedly probed Fei Ruyi's pulse and found that there was still a faint beat, so he picked her up and put her on his lap, and patted Fei Ruyi's back quickly and continuously.
Fei Ruyi wowed, and the river water gushed out from the small mouth and nostrils, and the person also woke up, coughing and vomiting at the same time.
Fei Xiaoyu and the others were relieved to see this, coughing to indicate that they were still alive, finally Fei Jixiang was a little older and sensible, and when he saw the people around him, he pointed and watched, and hurriedly stood up and let the girls circle around to block their vision. After all, the third sister was soaked, and it was really unsightly to be posed like that by Xu Jin.
"Hey, your brother-in-law's way of rescuing drowning people is very old and skilled, and he is an expert!" Xie Sandao patted the little slave's shoulder again and said.
The little slave was drenched at the moment, wiped his face and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"My name is Xie Sangun, and it was my two brothers Xie Yidao and Xie Erjian who saved your brother-in-law and sister just now!"
"Oh, my name is Little Nu'er, Sister Ruyi is not my sister, don't talk nonsense!"
Xie Sangun grinned and said, "Did you fall into the river and soak your brain into the water, here you call Sister Ruyi, and that side says it's not your sister!" ”
