cloudless sky

There were six people in a row, and the last person stood a little further away from the five of them. He was a big fat man with a strong figure, and he was much rounder than Shen Weifu. He stood upright on the spot without moving, with a pair of fat hands resting on his belly. At this moment, he had been half-closed his eyes until he suddenly opened them. Although they were not wide open, they were full of light. He spoke with a loud resounding sound like a bell, and asked, "Zhong Chongtang, do you still recognize me? You dragged me here Such a ghostly place, today God will open his eyes and tell you to fall here too!"

"Brother Chongwang," Zhong Chongtang said with a smile, "please bear with me."

Jiao Chongwang laughed a few times "ho ho", even the laughter was resounding, and said: "Weibei belongs to the Marquis Mansion, Dingbo Lake belongs to me, I open the mountains, I store the water, no one would do without me nodding." Don't even think about getting on your ship, just stay!"

"Alright, thank you for looking after me again." Zhong Chongtang nodded, still smiling.

He raised his hand and cupped his fists as a salute, his elbow slipped down from Chu Wu's shoulder and he was about to fall crookedly, Chu Wu supported him with both hands.

Mou Jianchun pulled him from the other side, and it was very laborious to use only one hand. He said angrily, "It's all over? If you can't get off the boat, go in and lie down! One by one, they are all outside in the rain. I'm afraid it's not a group of people." Fool!"

Su Shui looked at the three of them who were about to fall. They stood up and took a step forward to help them. When they stepped on the bank, Shen Weifu called out to him.Su Shui stopped, stomped his feet, and shouted: "Let's go, let's go!"

He turned around first and left, and the other four people in the Hou Mansion also stood up to follow. Shen Wei Fulin went to make a gesture with Chu Wu, swiped left and right, and poked forward in the direction of the fishing boat.Chu Wu stared at him, only getting angry, but couldn't understand what he was gesticulating.Shen Weifu mouthed him a sentence: "Stupid."

Li Heqing told him to go, and he shouted angrily at Chu Wu: "Wait!" Then he followed and left.

Only one Jiao Zhongwang was still standing on the shore, looking back and forth at the dilapidated fishing boat, and stopped talking to the people on board, calling the person who had helped tie the boat's cable just now, and whispered a few words to him.

Mou Jianchun had already helped Zhong Chongtang to go into the cabin, Chu Wu had to leave the bow and go back to the cabin, Chu Liu stood on the bow and looked back and forth, babbling a few times, although he didn't understand how to reply He wanted to go ashore, so he turned around twice, bumped his feet, shook his head, and ran back to find Chu Wu.

In the cabin, Mou Jianchun was still holding Zhong Chongtang's wrist to give him his pulse in the same posture that could not be changed. Chu Wu sat opposite them, huddled together, and stared at the board of the ship angrily.

"Little fool." Mou Jianchun scolded him without raising his head.

"Hmph!" Chu Wu refused.

"The fifth day of the lunar new year..." Zhong Chongtang was about to talk to him when Mou Jianchun got a needle stuck in his face, and his lips curled up in pain.

"Did you already know that you can't go to Weibei at all?" Chu Wu suddenly raised his head, staring and questioning the two adults in front of him.

"I haven't woken up..." Zhong Chongtang excused himself for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Hearing Dingbo Lake, I have an idea in my heart. This is a compromise method, and it is also the best solution that Steward Su can give. We are old, young and disabled on this ship, not to mention escaping, it is not easy to find a shelter."

"But, but this is wrong...how can this be?" Chu Wu asked.

"You're really stupid to say you're stupid," Mou Jianchun sneered, and said, "Whoever talks to you about right and wrong, about the pros and cons of grievances and resentments, don't talk about anything else, do you know how the Three Corpses started? The three people who opened the door were darts, and they took the biggest dart trip in their lives. Do you know whose family is the dart? Ke Jinghou Wei Yuan's uncle has accumulated all his wealth from being an official for decades. This uncle is afraid that his brothers will covet him Yes, leaving the masters of the Hou Mansion alone, I hired a bodyguard agency and wanted to transport them back to my hometown quietly, but I never saw that bodyguard again. The Hou Mansion chased them for thousands of miles, and the three fled to Yin In the Dashanren's Mansion, the Hou's Mansion didn't kill them because of the face of the good people. They even created a three-corpse gate. The Three Corpse Gate was always a thorn in the side of the Hou Mansion. After all these years, the Hou Mansion hated the Three Corpse Gate. Can you let this little thing go ashore?"

Mou Jianchun spoke bluntly and unclearly. On the fifth day of the lunar new year, he listened hard, but before he could straighten out the relationship between them, he suddenly realized that Mou Jianchun was talking about the sixth day of the new year.Turning around on the fifth day of the lunar new year, Feng Pingping, the orphan of the master of the Three Corpses Sect, was sitting next to him, looking at him eagerly.Already changed the name, but to no avail.

Chu Liu showed him the wet skirt with both hands, and twisted it several times, but it still didn't work.Chu Wu put his hand up, twisted it for him, and then took him into his arms and hugged him.He lowered his head and pressed his forehead against the top of his head, unable to say anything.

"Let's just stay here for now," Mou Jianchun looked at the two of them, his tone relaxed, and said, "There are a lot of boats here, so it's easier for me to ask someone to find medicine, so what if I don't go to Weibei!"

"Oh." Chuwu replied dully.

After Mou Jianchun gave Zhong Chongtang the injection, he got up to leave, and he still went to make medicine and boil it all day long.Chu Wu jumped up to see him off, and his small boat came to Dingbo Lake. The boatman saw the fishing boat from a distance and waved his hand in greeting.On the fifth day of the fifth day, Mou Jianchun naturally knew about it earlier, and arranged for the boatman to come here in advance.

He didn't ask any more questions, just put his hands together to help Mou Jianchun get off the boat.

Seeing the rain gradually subside, he went back to the cabin and moved out all the soaked beddings and spread them out on the side of the boat. On the sixth day, he ran back and forth to help him pull the sheet, and all of a sudden he was covered under it. Fish him out.Then I went back to the cabin and pulled a few oilcloths, dragged them out to shake the water, and came back to make a bed for Zhong Chongtang to lie down.

"Fifth day." Zhong Chongtang called him again.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, he lowered his head and didn't listen, he just bustled around, and with the sixth day on his hands, he wanted to go out and wash him again.

"I won't chase you away," Zhong Chongtang said with a soft smile, "sit down and rest for a while, don't hide. We just arrived here, and the Hou's mansion kept a close eye on you. You can't get away with Chu Liu in your arms. If you throw away the sixth day, you will definitely not leave."

At the end of the fifth day of the fifth day, I stopped holding the sixth day. In fact, I was so tired that I didn't have any strength at all. I just insisted on not stopping.

"Didn't the people from the Hou Mansion leave?" Chu Wu asked.

"Look again." Zhong Chongtang pointed to the bow of the boat. Chu Wu walked a little forward, leaned over and looked out, and saw that there were only six people standing on the shore before, only one hunchback remained. The thin old man moved a chair and sat there, half-closed his eyes as if he was dozing off, looking very weak.

"Is he here to guard us? Is he very powerful?" Chu Wu asked.

"His name is Sun Sibi, one of the four masters of the Hou Mansion, the most powerful is Su Steward Su Zishu, who came down is Li Heqing and Li Heyi's brother Li Lili, he fought with Elder Ma in Yinjian Villa and was wounded, and he failed to come back. Then there is Sun Sibi, and the fourth one is Aunt Wei that you have seen. Aunt Wei followed Xiao Su to mess around, I am afraid that she will be arrested by Steward Su and locked up in the mansion. She even sent Sun Sibi to watch us. He is probably still injured , but you will never escape from his grasp." Zhong Chongtang said.

Hearing what he said, Chu Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down beside him with Chu Liu.The three of them were close together, and they all collapsed lazily and exhaustedly, and no one moved or spoke for a while.

Although I was still trapped on this boat, there were no pursuers staring at them, nor was there any rush of wind and waves to surround me. It was quiet in the water and on the shore, as if the sky didn’t care about the earth, and the world didn’t care about the world, and they no longer pursued them unrelentingly. There has never been such a peaceful moment in days.

I don't know whose stomach is growling, or all three of them are screaming.

"There's nothing left to eat," Chu Wu said with a bitter face, "Little Su's housekeeper brought a little bit of what was left, and it was washed away by the water. Miracle Doctor Mou only brought medicine, and he still wants to eat ours."

"How about we call Lao Jiao together?" Zhong Chongtang said.

"Hungry—" Chu Liu grabbed Chu Wu's sleeve and shook it. He said this word very clearly.

"I'll call!" Chu Wu jumped up and dragged Chu Liu to the bow of the boat. Anyway, it's not uncommon to take him to beg for food.

Just as he was about to go to the bow to call for someone, he suddenly heard a splash at the stern of the boat, and hurriedly turned his head to look, but there was a big fish thrown on the deck, lively and lively, writhing and flapping its tail.

"Yeah!" Chu Liu yelled, and rushed to hug the big fish, and was dragged down by the tail of the fish.

Chu Wu didn't catch him, and turned his head carefully to look around. There seemed to be some movement on another fishing boat moored about Zhang Xu away. Someone peeked out from the cabin and retracted again.

"Thank you... for the fish?" Chu Wu raised his voice.

Another head poked out of the cabin over there, squinting his eyes as if smiling at him, with a tanned face, a simple and honest smile, and a little embarrassed, he bowed his head and shrank back into the cabin again.Chu Wu thought about it, put down his doubts, and squatted down to catch a big fish with Chu Liu. Such a big fish would be enough to eat, but the firewood on the boat was gone, the pot was gone, and the mud stove was half collapsed. Never eat this fish raw.

The two were struggling with the fish, and on the sixth day, they were slapped in the face by the tail of the fish. They were busy hungry and didn't think of crying.

There was another plop behind them, Qiqi turned their heads and saw a bundle of firewood thrown on the deck, this time it came from the other side, and a round-faced woman on the fishing boat on the other side waved to them and smiled. Said: "Take it and use it, use it."

"Thank you, Auntie!" Chu Wu said sweetly, which made the woman even happier.

The fifth day asked the sixth day to guard the fish, and went to the cabin to get Zhong Chongtang's knife, and used it to cut the fish and scrape the scales.Anyway, Zhong Chongtang gave him this knife, so he can use it as he likes.Although the big knife is not easy to use, it is better because it is sharp. The big fish is chopped into small pieces, pierced with thin firewood, and turned back and forth over the fire to cook until cooked.The woman also threw him a small bag of salt, thanked him again and again on the fifth day of the lunar new year, and sprinkled it carefully.

The smell of meat wafts away when it encounters a fire. Chu Liu lay on his stomach in front of the clay stove, his stomach growling even more.On the fifth day of the lunar new year, while grilling fish, he had to stretch his legs to push him away from the stove, for fear that he would roast himself.

The live fish is fresh and tender, and it will be roughly roasted for a while. On the fifth day of the fifth day, a few pieces are torn off, cooled, picked, and passed to the sixth day to eat.Then they took it into the cabin and the three of them tore it up and ate it together. Although it was crude and simple, and it was burnt black in several places, it was the most delicious meal these days.

After eating, Zhong Chongtang passed out first, it was rare for him to be awake for such a long time, and finally couldn't hold on anymore.

Both the fifth day and the sixth day fell asleep next to him. The fishing boat rocked slowly with the gentle waves, and only the three people on board breathed lightly one after another.

In the afternoon, Jiao Chongwang's man came again, and he brought several people, carrying wooden masts and various tools, to board the boat together to beat and beat, repairing all the damaged hulls in the storm.Waking up on the fifth day of the new year, they watched them busy, and they didn't pay much attention to talking to them, only the leader responded twice.He also re-pasted the small clay stove, and asked someone to go ashore to get a pot and put it on.

They were so busy that they left after dark. Chu Wu dragged Chu Liu to thank them, and they bowed to the cabin together to salute, and left together.

On the fifth day of the new day, I took a new stove and a new pot to cook a pot of fish soup with the leftover fish. Only then did I remember the meaning of Shen Weifu's strokes, which means that these people around will take care of the boat, and they should not be hungry anymore. .

Zhong Chongtang never woke up, the fifth day and the sixth day drank fish soup and stayed beside him.

Mou Jianchun's boat came late, and it was farther from Weinan to Dingbo Lake, so it was difficult for him to travel back and forth.He was sleepy when he heard the sound of the boat on the fifth day of the lunar new year, and was just about to go to the side of the boat to pick up Mou Jianchun, when the sound of footsteps suddenly came outside the cabin, and he did not take the last step, standing there straight, not coming in, not bowing his head, just passing There was a gagged heavy cough.

"Who!" Chu Wu yelled, and moved to Zhong Chongtang at once, raising his knife to the outside of the cabin.
