After waiting for a while, Wei Yan figured it would be an hour. Although she was a little worried about the three people in the fifth row, in comparison, she was actually more worried about the people on their ship. After all, the people on the ship were all very poor at protecting themselves, including himself.
"How about we sail the boat to the middle of the river." Wei Yan asked Zhizhi.
"I think it will work." Zhizhi said, and then ordered the sailors to sail the ship. Some of the dissenters said, "We have to wait for Mr. Kong," and were immediately scolded by Zhizhi again.
"Sail the boat when I tell you to, don't worry! Your master can't be lost, so you should be careful with your own heads first! Don't wait for your master to come back, your heads will move again." The princess is probably used to training people since she was a child. , still reluctant to give up.
The sailors were subdued by Zhizhi and finally sailed the boat to the middle of the river. Only then did Wei Yan feel relieved.
Because the current in the middle of the river was a little strong, Zhizhi had to ask the sailor to drop an anchor and continue to wait in the middle of the river. When the sailors saw this, they knew that they really did not want to leave Master Kong and go back alone, so they didn't say anything more.
After about an hour and a half, the three people in the fifth row still didn't come back, and Wei Yan and Zhizhi became more and more worried. At this time, a raft suddenly caught up with him upstream.
Wei Yan saw it, walked to the stern of the boat and took a closer look, but saw that there were only two people on the raft, a man who was punting the boat, and a woman with a folding fan in her hand, dressed in white and with beady lips. She was about twenty years old. Probably slightly smaller than myself.
Wei Yan felt a little relieved when she saw that it was a woman.
"Boatman, where are you going?" The woman in white suddenly asked from behind the boat.
"Where are you going?" Wei Yan asked instead without answering.
"I'm going to Kangzhou, but I didn't find the big ship. Can you give me a ride?" the woman in white asked.
"Don't you have a boat?" Wei Yan asked.
"The boatman only reaches the town in front, and he won't go downstream." The woman in white replied.
Wei Yan was a little confused at this time, although she didn't think this woman was malicious and she was also very weak. But people should not be judged by their appearance. If you are wrong, everyone on the ship will be in danger.
"It should be no problem!" Zhizhi said tentatively from behind Wei Yan.
"It's easy to invite the gods but hard to send them away. It's easy to let her come up, but if something happens, it's difficult to get her off the boat." Wei Yan said worriedly.
"What are you afraid of? A weak woman, you are afraid that she can eat people!" Zhizhi was careless, and after saying that, she had already been picked up by someone.
Because the raft was small, the girl in white's clothes inevitably got a lot wet from the river water.
"Is there a place to wash your face?" Girls all love beauty. She obviously felt that she looked a little embarrassed, so she asked the first thing she got on the boat.
"Yes." Zhizhi then ordered someone to take her to wash her face.
Wei Yan was worried and followed.
The woman in white also saw Wei Yan's vigilance and didn't say much.
Finally, after washing her face, the girl became much more beautiful indeed. Her beauty even surpassed the other beauties on the boat for a moment.
When the sailors saw the woman, she seemed to have a seductive charm of her own, which made them feel dizzy.
After the girl washed her face, she didn't even pour out the washing water. Wei Yan looked at the wash water in the basin and saw that there was a thick layer of powder floating on the water, and there was also a faint fragrance wafting out.
Wei Yan thought to herself, how much makeup and powder does this girl wear?
Although Wei Yan was thinking this, she didn't take it too seriously, so she picked up the basin and planned to pour the water away.
"I'm sorry." Unexpectedly, the woman in white seemed to feel a little rude when she saw him, so she hurriedly came back to grab the basin and asked to pour water herself.
Wei Yan had no choice but to give her the basin. But after the woman took the basin, she didn't pour water directly. You know, where she washes her face, there is a ditch that can drain the dirty water directly into the river. However, the woman did not just throw away the washing water. Instead, she brought the washbasin to the deck and made a gesture of pouring it from the deck into the river.
Wei Yan was very alert and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Suddenly, she remembered the powder in the water, which also had a slight fragrance: "Could it be that there is something wrong with this powder?"
Wei Yan thought of this and immediately shouted: "Put the basin down?"
"What are you doing? Scared me." The woman pretended to be angry.
"Put the basin down." Wei Yan said a little more politely.
Zhizhi was smart enough to take notice of Wei Yan's wrong tone. At this time, she also smelled the powder in the basin.
"Zhixiangsan! I'm so stupid, why didn't I notice it just now?" The princess immediately knew that she had been fooled, but she remained calm and secretly escaped back to the cabin alone.
Wei Yan saw Zhizhi sneaking back to the cabin, but she didn't understand why and didn't ask any more questions. She just held the Blood Yan Sword in her hand and asked the woman to put down the basin in her hand.
The other sailors didn't know what happened, but when they saw the two girls suddenly confronting each other on the deck, they all gathered around them.
"Don't come over." Wei Yan reminded hurriedly.
However, it was already too late. Seeing the right opportunity, the woman in white immediately poured the washing water from the basin into the world. The powder in the water flew into the wind and immediately covered the entire merchant ship.
The sailors were not careful and had already been splashed with face wash water. When they smelled the fragrant oil, their eyes immediately became dizzy, they became light-headed and somewhat unable to stand.
Although Wei Yan was on guard and had already held her breath, it was useless because she was the first to smell this fragrance, and naturally the first to be poisoned. It's just that she discovered it early, held her breath afterwards, and didn't inhale too much poisonous fragrance.
All the sailors and Hua'er people were unprepared. They were all splashed with fat and water, and their bodies suddenly went limp and they fell to the deck one after another.
Wei Yan knew that she couldn't hold her breath for too long, but Zhixiang shouldn't be able to go to high places, so Wei Yan jumped up, climbed on the mast, and then asked the woman in white: "Who are you? Why do you want to harm us?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I know who you are." The woman in white succeeded quickly, obviously premeditated, and then opened the folding fan and said proudly. However, she obviously didn't notice that there seemed to be one less person on the deck.
"Did you attack us last night?" Wei Yan asked again.
"No. I don't have that ability. The one who attacked you is my junior brother." The woman in white replied.
"Who is your junior brother?" Wei Yan asked again.
"My junior brother? Even if you tell me, you don't know me. You have also been hit by my Zhixiang Powder, and your whole body will soon become weak and weak. If you don't come down, you will fall off soon." The woman in white was not in a hurry, she also Seeing that Wei Yan was good at martial arts and had a magic weapon in her hand, she naturally didn't want to attack her.
When Wei Yan heard this, she saw that Hua'er and others just fell limply on the deck after being poisoned. They could not move or speak, but they were still very conscious.
