White clouds cover the mountains, and the sky is lush and green.

The place where the armored man moved himself and Suche could be said to be beautiful.

The Canglang water meandering eastward hits the layers of pebbles in the south from time to time. Under the lush aquatic plants, you can see a few swimming fish shaking their heads and tails, enjoying the freedom that belongs only to them.

Mole crickets don't know spring and autumn, and they don't care about day and night when they float.

For one side of the world, for practitioners, their happiness is only a brief moment, but for these creatures, it is almost equal to eternity.

Suche stood on a large blue stone on the shore, his feet stepping on the slippery moss of the stone.

It is not advisable to stay here for a long time.

Not knowing when the people from Rakshasa Sea would come over, Suche raised his eyes and looked around. There was still a lot to deal with in the follow-up.

The top priority is to avoid the eyes and ears of the minions of the Rakshasa Sea and see what their next actions will be.

Suche turned his head and looked upstream. There seemed to be a vague sound of drumming over there.

It seemed like a large ship was drifting down from above.

It really comes to whatever you want.

Su Che looked around, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, and he plunged straight into the cold Canglang water.

The river was surging, and Su Che was floating up and down in the river, looking like he was struggling.

Not long after, a three-masted ship turned around at the end of the solitary gorge, with a flag hanging at the end of the mast, with the pattern of the Big Dipper painted on it.

"Help, help!"

Su Che shouted loudly and slapped the river with both hands.

Although his acting skills were exaggerated, he also attracted the attention of those above him.

"There's someone down there!"

"Go and report to your boss quickly."

"Cable, come on, get a cable."

He called out loudly, and soon a thick hemp cable came down from above.

Several heads poked out from the edge of the tall ship, but they kept asking questions.

"Hey, brother, you have a good grip."

"He's out of strength."

"Get out of the way, I'll go rescue him."

A muscular man with bronze skin was bare-chested and stripped down to only a pair of crotchless trousers. He dived into the water from above with a splash.

This man was not tall, but as soon as he entered the water, he seemed to be the reincarnation of a water monster. He first picked up the thick hemp rope in the water, then swung his body left and right in the Canglang water, swam over and asked Su Che loudly.

"Brother, do you still have the strength?"

"Yes, yes."

Su Che took a quick look and saw that this person had probably practiced some martial arts and had strong bones and muscles, but he was still far from a practitioner.

He replied quickly while splashing into the water.

"As long as you have the strength, don't struggle, otherwise you and I will sink into the river together to feed the bastard. I will use this cable to tie you up and let them drag you up."

Su Che's face turned pale and he quickly responded: "No need, thank you dear friend, thank you dear friend."

The man didn't say much and jumped directly into the water. Suche soon felt a rope wrapped around his waist.

"Those from above, pull this brother up."

The strong man shouted, and the sailors on the ship used their strength to pull Suche toward the ship little by little.

At the same time, another cable was thrown off the ship. The strong man grabbed the cable and swam towards the hull of the ship.

Xiao Yin is hiding in the city, Su Che feels that he should remain calm for now and see how the other side plays out the pieces.

The man on the boat in front of me looked like he was used to living on the water.

The Canglang River flows eastward into the sea, and many merchants from Daliang make a living selling goods in the East China Sea.

"Good brother, come and warm yourself up with a bowl of wine."

As soon as Suche was pulled up, the dark-skinned sailors hurriedly untied the cable for him, and some brought a large, chipped white porcelain bowl with half a bowl of turbid wine in it.

Suche took the white porcelain bowl with both hands and drank the wine in one gulp.

It's a little sour in the mouth, and the taste is just average, but there are no dirty "seasonings" in it.

"Thank you."

Suche returned the porcelain bowl.

"Brother Seven is coming up."

"Hurry up and serve a bowl of wine to Brother Seven."

Whirring, the man who just jumped into the water to rescue Suche also grabbed the cable and climbed up from below.

With a smile on his face, he took a bowl of wine and drank it in one gulp.

"Don't just worry about me, give this young master a bowl too."

"Seventh brother, don't worry, I have already served this brother wine."

"Yes, Brother Qi is a good man, and we all understand what the rules of the world are."

The man called "Seventh Brother" pushed the broken porcelain bowl towards the chest of the sailor who was laughing the loudest, giving him a small somersault.

"A group of water monkeys, no matter how big or small, there are no rules at all."

He turned his head and looked at Suche, clasping his hands and asking.

"I wonder how my brother, who has a great name, ended up in such a predicament?"

"I'm Ouyang Ke. Alas, it's also bad luck. I heard that Cizhou suffered a big disaster, so I bought some grain from Jiangzhou to sell in Cizhou. Who would have thought that when I met hungry people, they even gave me the grain in the boat. He was robbed, and he threw me into the waves."

Su Che sighed quietly.

"If I hadn't had some knowledge of water, I would have been buried in the belly of a fish before my benefactor could rescue me."

After Suche finished speaking, the atmosphere on the deck was a little awkward for a while.

"He's been making trouble for a long time, and he's making a lot of money."

“We can’t even save papermaking.”

"Let's throw him down again."

Even the leader named "Seventh Brother" had a cold look on his face.

Suche had a judgment in his mind.

These people should not be in business, maybe they belong to some aristocratic family or gang.

Because if you are a businessman and talk about business, even if you look down on yourself as a "profiteer", you will not say much.

They may even be "colleagues" who are making shady money together. No matter how bad it is, you still have to find out how many hungry people there are.

But these sailors immediately criticized themselves, at least they didn't earn this kind of money on weekdays.

At the same time, he did not ask where the hungry people came from.

It can be seen that they are quite confident in their own force and do not take any hungry people into their eyes.

"When Cizhou is hit by a disaster, it's good if even a grain of grain can arrive."

Brother Qi said as he glanced at the group of sailors around him: "Now that we've seen it, there's no reason not to help. The river is windy, damp and cold, and this is not the place to talk. Brother Ou, let's do it inside."

This man doesn't seem to have studied much.

Su Che thought so.

I have said before that my name is Ouyang Ke, but this seventh brother calls me Brother Ou.

Either he was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger and pretending to be vulgar, or he really didn't know that Ouyang had the compound surname.

But he is surrounded by his own people, is it necessary to pretend to be rough?

"Seventh brother, wait a minute. Although our Chang family in Licheng is not as good as it used to be, we can't let just any cat or dog lead us in."

A voice spoke out with a bitterness dried out by old vinegar.

"Do you think so, Mr. Ouyang?"

Su Che turned around and saw a young man in white, wearing a crane-feather cloak, holding a birch folding fan in his hand, and slowly beating the fan's mouth.

It turns out that my previous coquettish looks looked like this to others.

An idea flashed through Suche's mind, and he silently made up his mind that it would be better to be simple in the future.

However, I seem to have heard the name Licheng Chang Family somewhere.

"Second Young Master."

The man nicknamed "Seventh Brother" bowed with his hands clasped in fists.

"I was indeed reckless this time."

"No, we can't bear it."

The second young master held the folding fan with both hands and returned the salute to the seventh brother.

"Brother, if you say this, brother, I won't be able to step down."

The seventh brother is the elder brother, and the second brother is the younger brother.

The elder brother looks like a working man, but the younger brother is a sour dandy.

The situation on the Chang family's three-masted ship in Licheng made Suche increasingly confused.

Wait, Licheng Chang family.

Suche finally remembered which family this was.

What a coincidence.

When I was in Shanyin County, I once witnessed a siege in the Chenghuang Temple. There was an old man who claimed to be a member of the Chang family in Licheng and took a page of the golden book from their hands.

Unexpectedly, after wandering around, I met here again.

"What's the noise about?"
