Lord of the House

"Knowing that he is an eggless person, why did Mr. Qin talk to him like this?" Seeing Fu Qinghe's solemn expression, the short and burly man thought he wanted to retreat again, and complained dissatisfiedly.

Lin Fu saw Fu Qinghe's dignified expression and wanted to open his mouth to speak. He preemptively said, "Fu, please don't mention the matter entrusted to the funeral?" He said to Qin Chengzu, "From Qingpujin to Dongning, the waterway twists and turns. More than a thousand miles, there are many opportunities, why rush to die tonight?"

Lin Fu's tone was not polite. The short and strong man changed his tone and wanted to scold him back. Qin Chengzu told him to calm down and said to Lin Fu, "What's the best way for Master Tan?" He glanced at Fu Qinghe and thought to himself. Since the young man named Tan Zong in front of him can give Fu Qinghe his life, he is a powerful character. He didn't have the guts to drive Fu Qinghe away just now. He also considered that their manpower was too limited. If they could have one more helper, then there would be more hope.

"We need four boats, three light boats, and one should be a little bigger. It's better to get these boats without disturbing the place. Can Mr. Qin do it?" For Mr. Qin, even if Qin Chengzu was holding a waist saber, he was a bit Confucian, not like a famous horse thief leader at all.

"This is not difficult. Friends on the road may not be able to openly help us kill officers and soldiers with flags. It is easy to buy a few ships." Qin Chengzu said.

"Liu Ma Kou also sells illicit salt." Fu Qinghe was afraid that Lin Fu would be puzzled, so he explained a little bit.

The Hailing Prefecture counties on the south bank of Qingjiangpu are one of the largest sea salt producing areas in China. There are official salts and private salts. Both sides of Qingjiangpu are also the largest sources of private salt in Jianghuai and Jianghuai. Since Liuma Kou has colluded with private salt dealers , then Qin Chengzu and the others should not be difficult to build a few ships here.

"So much nonsense, what way do you have to say it?" The short and stout man asked impatiently, "Master can't stand your entertainment." There is no good feeling either.

"Zhou Pu, be patient," Qin Chengzu urged the short and strong man Zhou Pu to calm down, and then asked Lin Fu, "Is it right away?"

"We still have people at the sea mouth 30 miles away. We have to pick them up first, and we have to rush to the upstream before dawn. The sooner we can get a boat, the better," Lin Fu said, "If it is convenient, there are others. Mr. Qin is troubled to prepare a lot of things... We will rent a Wu Peng boat to launch first," he looked up at the sky, and added, "When the moon reaches the middle of the sky, we will meet in the bend of the river ten miles down the ferry."

"How many people do you have?" Qin Chengzu's eyes lit up, and he was worried about the lack of manpower. Even after leaving the ferry, there were more than 20 escorting officers and soldiers, and they were the elites of Chen Hansan's department. They were only 18 people. Fighting on the battlefield, the enemy is not afraid of doubling the number of enemies, or the officers and soldiers will be attacked and the prisoners will be killed first.

"There are quite a few people. I'm afraid that there are not many people who can help, but they can raise the flag and shout to distract the attention of the officers and soldiers, so that it is convenient for you, Mr. Qin, to start." Lin Fie told the truth.

Qin Chengzu only thought he was humble, and Lin Fu said, "I and Fu Ye leave first, is Mr. Qin still at ease?"

"He's a timid rat, and he has the guts to tell the truth. How can he be a tortoise at this time?" said Zhou Pu, a short and strong man.

Fu Qinghe clenched his fists at Zhou Pu and said with a wry smile, "Thank you for still trusting me."

Zhou Pu turned his head to the side and ignored him.

Lin Fu and Fu Qinghe went back to the ferry, bought a few sets of women's clothes from the shop, and bought a qin. Seeing the rough workmanship of the qin, Lin Fu smiled and said to Fu Qinghe, "I don't know Sumei. Can the girl play a good tune on this piano?"

"Starting in Hezhong, if something goes wrong, the government will track it down, I'm afraid it will find out your identity, Master Lin." Fu Qinghe said.

Lin Fu said lightly: "It's a big deal. As for the Lin family, they will say that I was killed in Baisha County, but someone else took my tooth card and impersonated it in Tinghu. How much trouble can it be?" He asked Fu again. Qinghe, "It doesn't matter if Master Fu confirms that Enze, Qiao Zhong and the others see it?"

"They would rather die than surrender to the government," Fu Qinghe said with a touch of sadness between his brows, "but we also need to prevent them from accidentally leaking their mouths. Regarding Enze and Qiaozhong's affairs, we will follow the previous instructions. There is no need to tell them in detail about the negotiation.”

"Well." Lin Bie nodded.

Let the food shop prepare a table of dishes and a few Tanting Lake burning dew rice wine and send them to the ferry. Lin Fu and Fu Qinghe rented a Wu Peng boat at the ferry.

Lin Bie excused himself to go to the river to admire the moon, and he didn't like outsiders' interference; the boatman could get a large silver thorn as a deposit, and the rental money Lin Bie gave was quite considerable. He even considered whether to take the deposit and fly away. They supported their own Wu Peng boat and carried a table of wine and vegetables downstream, and they didn't ask Lin Fu for any documents.

It's best not to leave a note, so that even if Lin Fu doesn't return the boat, he doesn't have to worry about the fact that the note will be left for the government to investigate.

Penny rowing in the shallow water, and down the current, the speed is very convenient. In three quarters, he has traveled 20 to 30 miles, and met Su Mei and others trapped in the shallow water. Fu Qinghe didn't delay. He only said a few words to Su Mei alone, and then took four able-bodied teenagers to go to Hequ Bay to meet Qin Chengzu and others. Lin Su stayed on the boat to prepare. He thought about Fu Qinghe for ten years. Before parting ways with Qin Chengzu and others, Su Mei was only an eight or nine-year-old girl at that time. I don't know if she and Qin Chengzu and others are old friends.

"I'm going to involve Young Master Lin in danger again..." Su Mei was still wearing coarse clothes with her sleeves rolled up, revealing her slender wrists like crystal clear fat, and handed a sweat towel to Lin Fu to wipe the sweat.

Lin Fu carried a large bundle of iron cluster arrows onto the deck. These will be moved to the boat later, and other supplies will also be transferred. He took the sweat towel, wiped his face, and looked at the moonlight. Su Mei's charming and beautiful face did not expect that she was really involved with Qin Chengzu and the others. She smiled and said, "We have been helping the crisis for many days. Do you want me to abandon you at this time? How could I abandon you?" His words were not perfunctory. Since falling into the water, even with the memory of Lin Bing before, this era still gave him a sense of alienation through layers of veils. Suddenly encountering such a big change, these days are helping the danger to survive. , Lin Fu's sense of closeness to Su Mei, Xiaoman, Fu Qinghe and the young people is far stronger than that of the Lin family in Dongyang, which seems to have only symbolic meaning. It was Su Mei, Xiaoman, Fu Qinghe and the other teenagers who made him feel that he was truly living in this era. This feeling, this feeling, gradually sprouted in his heart.

Su Mei raised her pretty face slightly, staring at Lin Bie's deep and mysterious eyes under the moonlight, thinking about what he just said, thinking about staying by his side, which is really reassuring. A gust of cold wind blew, and Su Meitai suddenly realized that she had been staring at others for too long, so she turned her face to the side and pretended to be unintentional. Seeing that Lin Bie's attention seemed to have moved the supplies in the cabin to the teenagers on the deck, only then did he A little peace of mind.

Qin Chengzu and others got the boat earlier than the agreed time, and when the moon reached the middle of the sky, the four Wu Peng light boats came quietly.

Lin Bie stood at the bow of the boat, watching Qin Chengzu, Zhou Pu and others follow Fu Qinghe to climb up the deck from the rope ladder, and noticed that Qin Chengzu, Zhou Pu and others were shocked when they saw Su Mei just showing her the beauty that could not be concealed by coarse clothes. No other anomalies, sure they don't know Su Mei. But it's hard to say that Fu Qinghe separated from Qin Chengzu and others ten years ago, and ten years ago, Su Mei was only an eight or nine-year-old girl.

Qin Chengzu and the others did not all come over. Fu Qinghe was worried that the big boat that Lin Fuyao wanted would be separated by shallow waters, so he stopped in a river bend more than ten kilometers away, leaving people to watch, Qin Chengzu, Zhou Pu and other ten people Follow Fu Qinghe on a boat to pick up Lin Fu, Su Mei, Xiaoman and all the teenagers.

Zhou Pu saw that there was such a big boat hidden here, climbed on the boat and walked around the boat, and came back and asked Fu Qinghe suspiciously: "Where did you get this big boat? You have this big boat, and you still need it. What kind of boat are we doing? The 'big boat' given to us by Xiao Blind is far less than half the size."

"The boat is too big and the draft is deep. We don't know the waterway of Qingjiangpu, and we got trapped here by accident," Lin Fu said. "It's not time to elaborate on this time. Some things will be moved to the Wupeng boat..."

The boat approached, Chen Enze and the young men began to carry the necessary items from the big boat to the Wu Peng boat. Fu Qinghe took a mulberry bow and gave it to Qin Chengzu: "Try this."

"Good thing!" Zhou Pu took the mulberry bow into his hand first, pulled the string, took out an arrow, and shot it into the night sky, only to hear the sound of "pop", and the arrow did not know where it went. , Zhou Pu rubbed his hands together and praised, "A good bow, I'm afraid it won't be a single stone, where did you get this good thing?"

Lin Fu had long suspected that Fu Qinghe was born in the military and only had good archery skills in his early years. Civilian hunters mostly used soft bows, and few people had the opportunity to come into contact with hard bows. Almost all real archery masters were born in military camps and saw Fu Qinghe's "old friends". Zhou Pu opened the bow and archery posture, and also knew that he was a good archer, and became more and more sure of the guess in his heart. Lin Fu thought to himself that since Fu Qinghe, Qin Chengzu, Zhou Pu and others were all from the military camp, why did Fu Qinghe live in seclusion in Jiangning for the past ten years, and why did Qin Chengzu and Zhou Pu become horse thieves in Huai?

Alas, everyone has their own privacy, and Lin Bie is not a talkative person.

Su Mei and Xiaoman quietly stood aside with the younger teenagers, and did not come to meet Qin Chengzu, Zhou Pu and others.

"This bow belongs to me." Zhou Pu directly announced that the mulberry bow belonged to him.

The government has the strictest control on bows and arrows; and the production of a good bow is very complicated, and it often takes several years to make a good bow, so there are very few good bows with more than eight fights left to the people. Qin Chengzu, Zhou Pu and others are rogue Huai Shang, other weapons are easy to do, and they can make their own bows and arrows, but it is difficult to find good materials, and there is not enough time to make bows. The homemade bows and arrows can be used as hunting bows. How much better is the inferior longbow used by the procurator and the county government's sword archers. How could Zhou Pu think this inferior bow is enough? Fu Qinghe threw the mulberry bow over, he couldn't put it down when he grabbed it, and played with it carefully. In five small words, "Supervisor of Ninghai Township", he asked Fu Qinghe, "You robbed the warship of Ninghai Town?"

No wonder Zhou Pu thought so, he had also seen two triple-bow crossbows on the deck.

Fu Qinghe smiled without explaining, and said, "There are a few more bows here. If you are happy, take them all."

This three-masted sailing ship is the original pirate warship. Xiao Taoyuan, the second general of Ninghai Town and the deputy commander of the cavalry, let his members drive this ship to sea. He wanted to cultivate a pirate force that was loyal to himself. Naturally, it would not be too much. stingy. After Lin Fu and the others captured the boat, there were actually two triple-bow crossbows on the boat, which were rare even in Ninghai Town. This was something they didn't expect to get beforehand. This was to shoot five or six short spears as arrows. A weapon that is a hundred steps away.

Fifteen Ninghai Town elites died in Lin Fu's hands. In addition to 21 long and short weapons, they also obtained a total of six strong bows, four arm crossbows, and twelve leather armor and black armor.

Archery cannot be accomplished overnight. With the exception of Fu Qinghe's own use of six strong bows, the other five bows were given to Qin Chengzu and the others; In addition to the five strong bows, Lin Fu and Fu Qinghe had already discussed giving Qin Chengzu some medium and long weapons such as awl spears and Mo knives. Qin Chengzu and the others were horse thieves. On horseback, they used medium and short weapons such as the ring-headed sword with straight back and straight edge and waist sword to come and go like the wind, and they were convenient for slashing. Medium and long weapons such as the dagger are more powerful. In addition, leather armor is light and can be worn by young people, so naturally they are not allowed to; Xuan armor is actually iron armor, a whole set of nearly fifty or sixty pounds, not to mention young people, Lin Fu put on iron armor, They couldn't continue their activities for long, so naturally the twelve sets of black armor were given to Qin Chengzu and the others.

It is planned to rob boats and prisoners in the water tomorrow and tomorrow, and still use Qin Chengzu and others as the main force, and Lin Fu and Fu Qinghe will naturally try their best to equip them first.

Zhou Pu couldn't wait to grab a bow and a mo knife. He also thought that the iron armor was cumbersome and only wore half body armor. With an excited face, he patted Fu Qinghe on the shoulder and said, "I thought you were a coward, and I wronged you. ; I didn't expect you to have the guts to rob Ninghai Town's warship!"

Fu Qinghe still smiled wryly, he knew that Zhou Pu was a jerk, and he had nothing to worry about.

Qin Chengzu didn't say anything. He took another bow from Fu Qinghe's hand. In addition to seeing the two triple-bow crossbows on the deck, he also saw that the hands that Lin Fu said could only wave the flag and shout at that time. In his heart, he wondered what Fu Qinghe and Lin Fu were doing with this young man in Qingjiangpu.

He saw that Fu Qinghe and Lin Fu didn't want to explain. He didn't know much to ask. Although these youngsters seemed to be helping a lot, Fu Qinghe and Lin Fu were willing to give them this batch of excellent weapons. Happy.

Watching the teenagers help to load the crossbow onto the Wu Peng boat, Zhou Pu shouted excitedly: "The thief, stop the official boat tomorrow and **** it on the water!"

If the number of officers and soldiers escorted by the official boats does not increase tomorrow, and if the officers and soldiers are not concerned about being attacked, the prisoners will be killed first. With this group of good things, Qin Chengzu is also confident that they will directly rob and kill the official boats on the river—the most worrying thing now is that the officers and soldiers will be attacked first. Killing prisoners is also the reason why they dare not start.
