Chapter 108: Leaving Jiangning
The door opened, and the white buttocks squeezed in. Bai Luo frowned: "You still have injuries on your body, you can't rest well, why are you here so late." ”
"Dad, I see that guy is already drunk, why don't we ......" said him, a cold light flashed in his little eyes, and he made a posture to wipe his neck.
"Don't be reckless. Bai Luo said in a deep voice: "Don't make any rash moves. ”
Suddenly, the white buttocks changed his complexion, big eyes rolled out of his eyes, and he said with a cry: "Dad, the child was almost scared to death today, thinking that he would never see his father again." Daddy, the child is afraid, as long as that person lives for a day, the child can't sleep for a day!"
Bai Luo also cried, he hugged the round head of the white buttocks, and cried bitterly: "Dad is also heartbroken, but Dad is not important, Dad can't beat a thousand knives......"
The father and son hugged each other and cried. After a long time, it was quiet again.
"Daddy, the boy wants to kill the man tonight. ”
Bai Luo decisively refused: "No." ”
The white buttocks wiped his tears: "Dad, you don't love me anymore." ”
Looking at Bai Luo's pitiful appearance, Bai Luo's heart ached, and he hurriedly said, "That's not the case." The one who killed a thousand knives was not drunk, he was only drunk. I waited to kill him, but I gave him an excuse, what if he got murderous and hurt my child?"
"But is that all?"
"How could it be. Bai Luo sneered: "I gave him 50 gold and sent him back to Bashu." ”
"What, Dad, you gave him fifty gold, you are confused!"
"What do you little rabbit cub know, he saved His Majesty, and didn't give it to him, and when His Majesty knew, if he didn't leave, he would become a big official, and he would be pressed on our heads for the rest of his life, and we would not be able to take revenge for the rest of our lives. Now that the fifty gold is sent away, let's let someone pretend to be a thief to intercept the fifty gold, and by the way, end the goods. Hmph, he's a tiger on the shore, but I don't believe he can turn into a dragon when he goes into the water. ”
The white buttocks' eyes shot a light full of adoration: "Dad is so powerful!"
Bai Luo stroked his beard and smiled proudly: "Don't look at who your father is." ”
Fifty gold is indeed very precious, but compared to the strange thing of the snake-like strip of cloth, it is not so precious.
In the same bedroom, the ghost is crying shirtless, and Cai Wei is treating his wounds. In the battle during the day, the ghost cried with one as a hundred, and he was brave and unparalleled, but after a fight, he inevitably had several more injuries on his body.
Today's Caiwei will no longer see a little wound like before, and she will be frightened, heartbroken, and afraid. Now she can carefully distinguish the severity of the wound, and when she sees that the injury is not serious, she breathes a sigh of relief, and then while bandaging the wound for the ghost cry, she asks, "Brother ghost, you say, is it safe for us to live here?"
"Of course it's safe to live here, he doesn't have the courage to do anything to us here, but ......" Ghost Cry's narrow eyes flashed with a cold light, and said, "When we get on the boat and leave here, maybe it'll be over." ”
3 days later, at five o'clock in the unitary hour, the sun was in the west.
On the wharf, not only did it not become deserted because of the contradictions between the two countries, but it became more lively.
There are fewer tourists, but more businessmen. Because of the contradictions and frictions between the two countries, prices have risen, so seeing that it is profitable, businessmen have come here, and naturally there are more ships, and more people working here have also increased.
As a result, this and the city have almost become two worlds.
However, there are also more officers and soldiers wandering here, which makes people seem a little daunted, so that this bustle seems to be more in a hurry. Hurriedly unloaded, full of loading, hurried coming, hurried leaving.
Ghost Cry, Cai Wei, the big black horse, and two large heavy boxes hung on the back of the big black horse, which contained some clothes, dry food and money, and the place where the clothes bed was occupied was large, but the money was heavy. Devil Cry had brought as much gold and silver as he could, but even so, the number of copper coins was still insignificant. The weight of the two boxes added up to 300 catties, and the money in them was nearly 200 catties.
There is no such thing as a child in this world, after all, there are monster spells, and there are many Taoist monks who use some stones into gold to deceive people on weekdays, but fortunately, most of them are copper coins on weekdays, and they also deceive those big families, and they have to spend a lot of time.
If you really get the Jiaozi and something like that, and someone uses a leaf to make an illusion, they will cheat you out of your money and make you bankrupt in minutes, so the money bank and the like can't be opened.
Ghost Cry and the others came to the pier with their luggage in the escort of Bailuo. The ghost cried and arched his hand and said, "Brother Bai, that's it, don't send it again." ”
Bai Luo sighed: "I just met again, and I have to leave again, and I will meet again in the future, I don't know what year and month I will have to wait, this time, I am here to wish Brother Ghost Cry a smooth journey and arrive home safely as soon as possible." ”
The word "home" bites quite hard.
The ghost cried and laughed: "I am also here to wish Brother Bai good luck and good fortune." However, Brother Bai has to pay attention, for martial artists like you and me, officialdom is more terrible than the battlefield, you must be careful, don't wait for the whole family to be beheaded one day, and then regret it. ”
Bai Luo's face pulled down: "Farewell." ”
The ghost cried and said, "Farewell." ”
The two separated, and the ghost cried straight to the dock. Zhang Shanren, who had been waiting for a long time, greeted him and led the ghost to cry and they to his ship.
Stepping on the gangplank, I got to the boat. The big black horse looks a little dangerous, after all, it has a heavy object planted on it, but it is not an ordinary horse after all, and it is safe to get on the boat.
Caiwei and the big black horse went to the room where they had been settled, while Ghost Cry stood on the deck, holding on to the railing with both hands, looking out onto the shore. On the shore, Bai Luo did not leave, but kept watching Ghost Cry and the others.
Time passed little by little, until the sun was halfway down and the fleet finally left the dock. Countless large pulps slapped on the water, and the big boats were like centipedes crawling on the water. At this time, Bai Luo slowly withdrew his gaze, and when he saw the ghost crying and leaving, he relieved himself and said, "Let's go." ”
Coincidentally, as soon as the boat left the dock, a strong wind blew. The sails puffed up, and the crew breathed a sigh of relief and put away the oars.
Feeling the gusts of cold wind, Ghost Cry was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh: "What a coincidence. ”
"It's no coincidence at all. A man came to Ghost Cry, only to see that he was thin and thin, and his skin was like pig's liver, and when he saw Ghost Cry, he smiled at Ghost Cry, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth: "My name is Zhang Zhongshan, the person in charge of this ship, and the distinguished guest is called me Zhongshan." ”
"Steward Zhang, tell me why this is unfortunate?"
Seeing the ghost crying and calling him Steward Zhang, Steward Zhang was happy, the smile on his face became brighter, and his tone became more enthusiastic: "Returning to the distinguished guest, this is the strength of the Dragon King of the River!"
"Jiang Long King's strength?" Hearing him say this, Ghost Cry became even more interested.
"Yes, to say that this boat walks on the river, it is easy to get off from above, and it is a thousand miles a day. But from below, it's harder. It's okay in gentle areas, with rowing, sailing, some effort, slower, and you can always walk. But in some places, it doesn't work, you have to rely on the slender man, those slender men earn money for playing with their lives, and the fee is naturally not small, so along the way, the cost is naturally high and scary. Therefore, many merchants simply come down from above, and when they come down, they don't need boats, and walk back along the way. But our boat can't do it, our boat is expensive, what a pity to throw it away at will, you say?"
Ghost Cry nodded, "It's a waste to do this. ”
