Chapter 195: Is there really a water man?

Although Yin Qing and Hu Yun didn't understand what Mr. Ji was doing, they knew that Mr. Ji must have his own reasons for doing things, so they quickly followed Mr. Ji's urging.

When I went back, I felt a little faster than when I came. After returning to the cargo road of Laohua Mountain, I could already see some teams driving back and forth with ox carts, donkeys, carts and horses, carrying goods and luggage or guests, such as Ji Yuan and Yin Qing. There are also many natural walks.

Walking on the road, Hu Yun frequently looked at the lotus leaf bag in Ji Yuan's hand. He remembered that these dried lotus leaves were still ordered from the store when he bought cakes in Jiudaokou County. The red fox instinctively felt that the fish was not simple.

And Yin Qing, in addition to occasionally looking at the fish in Ji Yuan's hand, also frequently looked behind Ji Yuan, and after walking for a while, there happened to be no pedestrians and horses, so he couldn't help whispering to Ji Yuan.

"Mr. Ji, where is the sword that appeared in your hand just now, why is it gone now?"

Yin Qing looked at the cloth bag that Ji Yuan was carrying. Obviously, such a small bag could not fit a long sword, and the shape was not right.

"You said Qingteng Sword, this sword should not be shown lightly if it is unwilling or unwilling, and it is hidden in a place that cannot be seen."

"Oh…"

Mr. Ji's ambiguous answer means that he doesn't want to go into detail, so Yin Qing just gave up.

"But that sword is really good-looking, and the green and green feel is very smart. As soon as you see it, you know that it is definitely a weapon of magic, right, Mr. Ji?"

Ji Yuan smiled and didn't have time to speak.

"Om..."

There was a faint sound of sword cries, Yin Qing and Hu Yun had faint tinnitus in their ears, and they couldn't help looking left and right, but they couldn't find the source of this strange feeling, only Ji Yuan said "hehe" twice. make a sound.

The cargo road of Laohua Mountain is dug along the gentle terrain on the side of the mountain, and it does not take much effort to shuttle to the ferry at the other end.

Even though Ji Yuan and Yin Qing were just walking at a normal pace, they reached the ferry by the Xiaoshun River outside the mountain before noon.

In Yin Qing's bookcase, there are still cakes and snacks bought in Jiudaokou County, so they did not plan to eat in the shop and restaurant in the ferry, but went directly to the ferry.

It was too early when Jiyuan came to this ferry, but now it is the busy time of the ferry, all the boatmen loading and unloading and the boatmen recruiting guests.

The atmosphere of a place like the wharf made Hu Yun, who was lying on the bookcase, a little nervous, especially those muscular boatmen who were shirtless and padded with leather pads, carrying the wooden box and the big frame "Hey Throat, Hey Throat" up and down for the fox. An inexplicable sense of oppression, I always feel that this box will come to smash myself, and I blame Yin Qing for telling the story of the villagers fighting spirits together.

Ji Yuan walked around the ferry with Yin Qing. Yin Qing felt that Mr. Ji was looking for something.

"Mr. Ji, are you looking for something?"

Ji Yuan walked back and forth, but couldn't find the small passenger boat that year. I don't know if the boatman and his son stopped doing this business, or if they had just left the ship and just missed it, it should be the latter.

Facing Yin Qing's question, Ji Yuan smiled.

"It's nothing, just take a look, do you two want to take a big boat or a small boat?"

"Big boat!" "Small boat!"

Two voices sounded one after the other. Yin Qing and Hu Yun had a rare disagreement. Yin Qing wanted to take a big boat, while Hu Yun wanted to take a small boat.

Yin Qing turned his head, just happened to meet a fox face that was a little nervous, and changed his mouth to Ji Yuan for a moment.

"Mr. Ji, let's take a boat, there are few people and quiet."

"Okay, then let's take a boat!"

Leading Yin Qing to the side of a small passenger boat that was similar to the boatman's father and son back then, Ji Yuan greeted the man with a straw hat on his face dozing off on the deck.

"Chunjia, is this ship going to Chunhui Mansion? Boatman..."

After calling twice, the boatman took off his straw hat and straightened up. He looked at Ji Yuan and Yin Qing who were standing on the shore of the pier. They looked like two scholars.

"The boatman, do you want to go to Chunhui Mansion?"

Ji Yuan asked again.

The boatman scratched his face and scratched his head, and replied with a somewhat idle answer.

"Two taels for a chartered boat, and it is also possible to wait for the passenger and the capital, and it is limited to eight people."

Looking at this man's hidden qi and blood, he should be a good martial artist, but the premium is a bit too much, Ji Yuan waved his hand.

"Two taels? Jizhou is full of disaster-free and disaster-free supplies, so the shipping costs won't go up so much, right? How about chartering a boat for two hundred wen and then chartering meals on board?"

The boatman leaned out and washed his face with water by the river, and fixed his eyes on the shore.

"Yo, I'm still someone who knows how to do it, so let's just say that if the guest officer chartered a boat and left immediately, he would be charged 200 wen. If he was going to wait for a first-class passenger, then the final total fare would be 400 wen, how about that?"

Jiyuan nodded.

"Okay, let's go straight to the boat, let's charter the boat!"

"Okay, the guest officer is refreshing, hey, this gentleman, hold on, be careful, I'll give you a springboard!"

Hearing that Ji Yuan was ready to charter the boat, the man became more enthusiastic, and was busy laying the boards on the boat so that Yin Qing could step on the springboard on the boat.

When Yin Qing was carrying the bookcase on his back, the boatman also stretched out his hand to help him. It was only when Yin Qing stepped on the boat, Hu Yun jumped from the bookcase to the boat.

Although the red fox was extremely light, when it landed on the boat, the boatman frowned, looked around subconsciously, and then greeted Ji Yuan to board the boat.

"Boatman, is this boatman the only one of you?"

Ji Yuan looked back and forth on the boat, and there was no second person on the other side of the inner warehouse, so wouldn't it mean that no one could take turns.

"Hey, it's the next person, don't worry, sir, I'll take three days for others, and I'll take three days for others, I can't slow down!"

As he spoke, the boatman had already untied the ropes from the pier and propped the boat away from the shore of the pier with bamboo poles.

"Sit tight, sit tight, let's sail! Hey~~~~yo~~~~"

The energy and blood of the boatman's body rose sharply, and his muscles were distinct when he swayed vigorously.

Yin Qing's center of gravity was unstable on the boat, so he hurriedly sat down on the stool in the cabin to hold it steady. Even the red fox, who was on the boat for the first time, was lying on the stool and hugging the stool with its front and rear claws.

Only Ji Yuan stood firmly in front of the warehouse and looked at the surface of the Xiaoshun River, without even shaking his body, causing the boatman behind to narrow his eyes for a while, and wondered if he had lost his sight.

This man's swaying force was obviously stronger than that of the old boatman, and in the afternoon, he had already reached the intersection of Xiaoshun River and Chunmu River.

However, like the boatman of the past, the boat also stayed here. The man walked from the back to the front, and took a long-rod harpoon from the cabin, and a long rope was attached to the harpoon handle.

"Two guests, please wait a moment, there are a lot of big fish in the mouth of the river, and the meal tonight is pointed here!"

Yin Qing and Hu Yun couldn't hide their curiosity, and went outside to watch how the man forked the fish, and Ji Yuan also smiled and stood beside the mast.

In the past, some small boats and large boats passed by, and some small boats stayed here, or cast nets or cast poles.

The boatman stared at the surface of the water intently, exploring the weak changes in the water through the sparkling waves. If a novice might not be able to judge where the fish in the deep and shallow positions is due to the refraction of the light, it is obviously not a problem for the boatman.

"Mr. Ji, why is he standing still?"

"Shh... it looks good!"

As soon as Ji Yuan's words fell, the boatman suddenly moved, his muscles seemed to bulge in an instant, and he took out the harpoon with a fierce momentum.

Whoosh~ "Bang..."

The water splashed, and the harpoon flew out and slanted into the water. The 10-foot-long harpoon only had the handle of one palm above the water.

"Hahaha... I hit it!"

The man laughed and pulled the rope back quickly. After a while, a large silver carp that was still shaking was pulled up.

"Good skill!"

When Ji Yuan praised, Yin Qing also called out "amazing".

There were sporadic applause from a little distance. Looking at the sound, a big ship happened to pass by, and there were boat passengers above who saw this scene and applauded from a long distance.

"Hey hey hey, get the prizes, let's make a living on the water!"

The boatman didn't stop his hand, feeling that a silver carp was not enough to eat, he took the silver carp off the fork and put it in a wooden basin on the side, and raised the fork again to concentrate.

This picture made Ji Yuan inexplicably think of Run Tu and Yi, whose postures were the same as the pictures in the previous life's texts.

A big silver carp weighing four or five pounds and a grass carp about the same size were the harvest of the man, and then he happily went back to shake the oars, sailed the boat out of the mouth of the river, and headed towards Chunhui House.

There is no wind on the river today, and the sails are of no use, but the boatman's swaying energy has not diminished from the beginning to the end. At a position, Ji Yuan called to stop.

"Boatman, stop the boat!"

"Ah? If the guest officer is in a hurry to urinate, he can solve it directly at the bow of the boat and face the river, facing the shore. There is a wilderness of woods on the other side, and no one will see it!"

Ji Yuan could not laugh or cry.

"Boatman, I don't mean to let go. We will rest here tonight and leave tomorrow!"

"what?"

The boatman looked at the sky and felt a little baffled. With the speed of his swaying, he could sail for a long time before breaking down.

Ji Yuan bowed his hands and explained.

"I passed through this section of the river back then, and some interesting things happened. At this time, I was in love with the scene. If I want to stay here for one night as before, I will trouble the boatman to make it easy."

The boatman scratched his head in the back, and returned a salute.

"Xingxingxing, you are the gold master, you can do whatever you want! Hey, scholars are trouble..."

The first half of the sentence answered loudly, and the second half of the sentence whispered and complained, all of which were heard in Ji Yuan's ears without a word.

Since Ji Yuan insisted on request, the boatman also anchored and stopped the boat here, started to process the two fish in advance, and then took out the stove to prepare the meal

Before sunset, the boatman had already prepared the meal. The two fish dishes were steamed fish, with **** slices and some sauce prepared by the boatman. However, after setting the meal, Ji Yuan borrowed a stove and a casserole from the boatman. Said to be carried to the bow to stew soup.

The boatman took a look out of curiosity, and found two small silver fish with the length of a slap in a large pot of water. He didn't know where they came from. Maybe there was a small tank in the bookcase. Yes, although he turned his stomach when he entered the water, his cheeks and fins moved occasionally.

"Uh, guest officer, do you want me to help you deal with these two fish, gills and internal organs..."

"No, no, that's fine!"

Ji Yuan smiled and rejected the boatman's kindness, which made the latter dumbfounded, thinking straight in his heart, 'These nerds are really nerds! ’

The sky was getting darker, Ji Yuan, Yin Qing and the boatman in the cabin were eating with bowls, Hu Yun was lying on the table and his mouth was gluttonous. Occasionally Yin Qing "accidentally" dropped a piece of fish, which was completely unsatisfactory. Fox's appetite.

A little boatman was very happy. The gentleman surnamed Ji actually took out a pot of Qianrichun while eating. This famous wine is not cheap, and the boatman who drank it was a little embarrassed. After all, this wine is more expensive than the boat fare.

After eating almost, the boatman went to the bow of the boat to take a break. Yin Qing hurriedly filled a bowl of rice, poured the soup with sauce and fish on top, and put a spoon on the stool.

Hu Yun grabbed the spoon with his claws at lightning speed, and shoved the rice into his mouth. There are too many delicious meals in Anxian County.

The boatman finished his hands and went to the other side to scoop some river water to wash his hands, and then went to the bow to add some charcoal to the stove~www.NovelMTL.com~ The taste is quite fragrant... Then Mr. Ji didn't seem to put any seasoning. …”

The man moved his nose, couldn't help wrapping his hands around his cuffs to prevent scalding, and lifted the lid of the casserole to look inside.

Immediately, a strong fragrance overflowed from the inside, and it smelled as if the whole body was numb. When I looked inside, the two fish had disappeared, leaving only a silver-white and transparent pot of soup.

"Crash..."

There was a sudden sound of water on the surrounding river, and the boatman was awakened. He immediately covered the lid with a guilty conscience. He looked at the river a few feet away, and the ripples were slowly dissipating.

"Crash..."

This time, the sound was in front of the bow, and the boatman suddenly crossed a distance of a few feet, looked towards the direction of the water pattern, and faintly saw a flash of blue light, and the movement of the water pattern was not small, and it did not look like an ordinary fish.

Even if he has martial arts, the boatman is also worried. Could it be that there is really a Shui Gong?
