"What you said makes sense, but I did neglect this point. How can your eldest daughter go into the mountains and take risks with her rich body?
Otherwise, how about I go dig things out alone and you wait on the boat for my triumphant return? "
Ye Congwen seemed to find this idea a good idea. Not only did he not have to carry the oil bottle, but he could also avoid leaking the whereabouts of the elixir. It was like killing two birds with one stone. Without waiting for Yu Yueyue's answer, Ye Congwen shook his oars and wanted to set off.
Yu Yueyue saw that Ye Congwen wanted to leave her and go it alone, so wouldn't everything last night be in vain? He glared at the two maids, quickly chased Ye Congwen and shouted in a low voice:
"Ye Congwen, as a grown man, why can't you keep your words?
If you are afraid that I will know the secret of your treasure, just tell me directly. Why are you playing tricks with me here?
If you dare to leave me alone, you will never enter the door of my Yu family in your life. I can do whatever I say. You'd better think twice now and don't regret it for the rest of your life! "
As Yu Yueyue spoke, she followed Ye Congwen's boat without even noticing that Ye Congwen was driving the boat in circles around the boat.
He was afraid of disturbing Uncle Yu, but he didn't dare to make any noise, but the sound was too loud and Ye Congwen seemed to be unable to hear anything. He was so anxious that he almost shed tears.
Seeing Ye Congwen's boat getting closer and closer to her, Yu Yueyue gritted her teeth, closed her eyes and jumped directly into the boat!
The two maids were so shocked that they covered their mouths for a long time and did not dare to say a word. Ye Congwen had always been teasing Yu Yueyue for fun, and turned a deaf ear to Yu Yueyue's shouting while secretly observing the woman's reaction.
At first, Yu Yueyue was talking about the truth slowly, but later she was so anxious that she burst into tears. What Ye Congwen didn't expect was that this woman dared to jump down with her eyes closed!
This is commendable! Naturally, Ye Congwen didn't dare to really offend Yu Yueyue. If he really wanted to piss her off, the Demon Hunting Guard's apprentice would probably have nothing to do with him.
Steadying the boat with two feet, he stretched out his hand to catch Yu Yueyue, patting his back and comforting him:
"Don't cry, I'll take you there."
Yu Yueyue was afraid of water. When she opened her eyes, she saw that the ship was shaking so much that it almost capsized. She hugged Ye Congwen tightly and buried her head in his broad shoulders. She was really scared to tears.
When the two maids saw this scene, their minds seemed to be hit by a bolt from the blue, and they murmured to themselves: "It's over, it's over, the lady is really going to elope with someone..."
"What on earth do you like about this black boy, so much so that he doesn't even want his life!"
"Miss, please just go with him. We won't stop you. Stop crying."
"Brother Ye, we entrust the young lady to you, you must bring her back safely!"
"Two sisters, please rest assured, I promise to give you a perfect body!" Ye Congwen promised in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Yu Yueyue quickly released her hands, glared at Ye Congwen, and hurriedly corrected:
"It's a perfect jade returned to Zhao. If you don't understand, don't use idioms to pretend to be a scholar."
"Don't they all mean the same thing? It's not like studying to take the top prize, so why are you being serious?" Ye Congwen said carelessly, supporting Yu Yueyue and placing her at the stern of the boat.
"When did you install two ropes?"
Yu Yueyue saw two thick ropes tied to the stern of the boat, just enough to reach her body. Apparently, Ye Congwen installed them temporarily because he knew he was afraid of water. There was nothing on the stern of the boat yesterday afternoon. Yu Yueyue was naturally filled with joy for this thoughtful gesture.
"While you were putting on makeup and changing clothes, the main reason was that I was afraid that you would fall into the water silently. Once a landlubber like you fell into the water and had two mouthfuls of water in his stomach, he would have to give you artificial respiration again. You see Look at my mouth, it’s swollen from your bite! Of course I have to be careful."
"You're talking nonsense! Who bit you?"
When Yu Yueyue saw Ye Congwen mentioning what happened yesterday afternoon, she replied angrily and shyly.
"Hey, you have a tough mouth like a landlubber, how about I throw you into the water now to verify it on the spot?"
"I do not want."
Yu Yueyue instinctively avoided it, and suddenly saw the corner of Ye Congwen's mouth raised, showing a sly smile, but it passed in the blink of an eye, and she suddenly realized.
This brat was teasing me again, but it was not appropriate to confront him at this time. If he was thrown into the river in the wilderness, he would really be in trouble.
He flattened his mouth and complained aggrievedly:
"Why do you always like to tease me? Ever since I met you, you have been bullying me, tearing off my skirt, throwing me into the ditch, and then into the river. Now you actually want to throw me away. Entering the creek, am I going to annoy you so much?”
Ye Congwen pondered for a long time, shaking the oar while thinking about the reason. He seemed to be a little too much. He wanted to tease this woman as soon as he saw her. Did he really think she was easy to bully?
"I just think about it now. You just kept circling my big ship and never thought about digging for the elixir alone. Tell me what do you mean?"
The more Yu Yueyue thought about it, the angrier she became. She wished she could go over and give him a few slaps. This guy would try his best to tease her as soon as he recovered his strength. Did he really have a grudge in his previous life?
"The night is long, the moon is bleak, the ghosts are howling, and the wind is whispering. It would be hard to pass the time without having some fun!"
Ye Congwen said with a serious face, his eyes scanning the dark woods, looking extremely alert.
"Why didn't I see you playing tricks on your sister Douya? You come to me every day to have fun, and you talk incoherently. Fortunately, it was Xiaofang Xiaocao and those two girls just now, otherwise I wouldn't let others misunderstand that I am really secretly with you. ———”
Having said this, Yu Yueyue lowered her head, feeling really aggrieved.
"Don't take it seriously. You know I usually talk like this, a country man, and I have never read a book. If you ask me to use words and sentences to reach the level of you scholars, isn't that forcing Zhang Fei to do embroidery?"
"I don't know about you yet. Just because you are so cheerful, you don't necessarily have any bad intentions. You just can't control your mouth. You just open your mouth when you say what you should and shouldn't!"
Yu Yueyue was very helpless about this.
Ye Congwen followed the good example and immediately chose to remain silent. At this time, it was at least 5:15 in the morning, and the sky was dim. The moon was occasionally covered by clouds, and the shadows of trees on both sides of the creek were dancing and shadowy. Coupled with the owls and apes howling and whimpering in the distance, it was indeed a third-level fear of the howling of ghosts and wolves. feel.
The ship has entered the deep mountains, and the shadow of the big ship can no longer be seen clearly. Yu Yueyue has lived a life surrounded by stars and the moon since she was a child. How has she ever experienced such a strange atmosphere.
Seeing that the strange cries around him were getting denser and denser, and the moonlight was getting darker and darker, as if he was in a nightmare, he was so frightened that he quickly asked Ye Congwen:
"You're just talking, it's dark and cold at night, it's scary."
"Miss, I dare not speak without the permission of the most beautiful lady." Ye Congwen said the words mechanically, without any emotion.
Yu Yueyue chuckled and scolded slightly playfully:
"Don't listen to the nonsense of those boring people outside, saying that the most beautiful woman is not the most beautiful woman. They are flattering with their mouths, but they are not sure how to arrange unpleasant and insulting words in their hearts."
After saying that, he specifically glared at Ye Congwen. For a moment, he thought of the death penalty and disability allowance, and gave Ye Congwen a hard look.
Ye Congwen rocked the oar, turning back to talk to Yu Yueyue from time to time, but his speed did not slow down at all.
"You don't like to tell the truth, but you believe in nonsense and you say I can't keep my mouth shut. You are such a difficult person to take care of."
“Okay, okay, what you said makes sense, okay?
If you have anything else that is true to your heart, even if you say it out loud, I will listen attentively! "
There was no one behind Yu Yueyue, and she subconsciously felt that something was staring at her from behind, which made her feel quite uneasy. However, if she wanted to run in front of Ye Congwen, she couldn't lose that face. With this person's bad mouth, he would definitely have to Laugh at yourself for being timid.
He had no choice but to keep talking to Ye Congwen to relieve his anxiety.
"You really want me to tell the truth?"
"Um."
"I told you not to be angry!"
"Never be angry!"
"Well, there is a female ghost in red behind you with disheveled hair and a face that is whiter than yours..."
"ah!"
A high-pitched scream suddenly broke the silence, scattered the dark clouds, and even the moon ran out.
Yu Yueyue looked back, as if someone was really staring at her, screamed, and ran in front of Ye Congwen in a panic, almost falling into the water.
Ye Congwen reached out and pressed him in front of him, smiling and comforting:
"It's okay, it's okay, I scared you."
Yu Yueyue opened her eyes and looked back, and there was indeed no one there. However, if she asked herself to go back again, there would still be a shadow in her heart, and she couldn't help complaining:
"You really make jokes regardless of the occasion. Do you want to scare me to death by talking about female ghosts this late at night?"
"If you don't have ghosts in your heart, you won't be afraid. How about I sit in the back?"
"You are not allowed to go."
"Then you go back and sit down?"
"I dare not reply."
"Then just sit in front and sing to me to cheer me up, or I'll throw you behind to chat with the female ghost in red."
………………………
After a while, a clear singing voice sounded on the boat. It was covert at first, but later, the long singing voice resounded across the water. It gradually changed from shy and timid to cheerful and cheerful.
Two people in a boat, singing cheerfully, laughing cheerfully, flying towards the mountains without restraint.
About an hour later, the moon in the sky gradually disappeared and the sky became whiter and whiter. Yu Yueyue suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She quietly walked to the stern of the boat, picked up a pair of wooden oars, and slowly started shaking them, staring at the boat ahead. The figure and the warmth remaining on the corner of the mouth slowly disappeared along with the moon.
Since dawn, Ye Congwen has increased his strength. The wooden boat seems to have come to life, and the movement is not very fast. The whole boat is like a cheerful fish riding the wind and waves in the water at an extremely fast speed, coming and going. freely. It swayed left and right in the water without any bumps.
Yu Yueyue didn't realize Ye Congwen's superb boating skills until this moment. She quietly put away the pair of wooden oars and held the thick rope tightly with both hands, as the boat began to turn corners and corners, looking up against the turbulent rapids. , the whole ship seemed to stand up, and Yu Yueyue was so frightened that she clung to the rope and closed her eyes without looking at any scenery.
