The big beard didn't care about the little baby. When the supplies were completed and the voyage resumed, he immediately gathered all his people together and started to fight against each other.
He took matters into his own hands and insulted the more than 40 crew members on the ship.
The bearded man didn't sleep all night.
All real faces.
It doesn't make sense.
In the room behind the cabin, the old man and the children couldn't sleep either.
The night on the river is quieter than on land. The sound of the river flowing in my ears is particularly clear, and the moonlight shining in from the window is a little cooler.
"Knock knock knock—" Bai Yu knocked on the wall, "Tianbao, are you asleep?"
A baby's voice soon came from the next door, "She's sleeping."
"My father said that the people outside the exile place are treacherous and deceitful. People in Fengyun City are unhappy and use their fists. People outside are unhappy and use their eyes. Each one is more sinister than the other. Are you afraid?"
"Why are you afraid?"
"You're heartless!"
"With fists."
"..."
Bai Yu turned over and knocked on another wall, "Xiao An, Xiao Wen, Xiao Wu, are you asleep?"
Three, "We are wise!"
Bai Yu turned around and knocked on the wall again, "Grandpa Poison——"
The door to Bai Yu's room was kicked open, and Grandpa Du stood at the door of his room with his hands on his hips, smiling faintly, "I can't sleep anyway, why don't you come out to play, boy from the Bai family?"
"..."
The five men went to the kitchen to grab some food and sat around on the deck, admiring the sky, water and stars.
Let’s get to the point.
Several people couldn't sleep because of this.
"Imperial lists and wanted orders are posted everywhere. The situation is so tense. I don't know if Uncle Duandao is still in Changjing or not." Bai Yu chewed fried peanuts and kept making a clicking sound in his mouth, "We rushed over there at once. , you may not be able to meet anyone.”
Changjing is different from the place of exile. They have no connections or backers there. Finding someone in such a huge imperial city is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It’s not that I’m afraid of finding someone, but that Uncle Broken Knife will be unable to support himself until he finds someone...
Bai Yu straightened his legs, half lying and half sitting, looking at the moon in the sky that was obscured by water vapor, his eyes were steady and deep befitting his age.
The three boys slowed down their eating movements, "What if we don't run over there? Wouldn't it be even more directionless?"
The Poison Buguo group said in a deep voice, "When we get to Changjing, we will also put up a list and spend a thousand taels of silver to find the corpse."
Tianbao nodded and pointed to a dark place with his little hand, "Big Beard, give me some money."
After successfully blowing the person out, the man held his double blades and said, "Old man! I don't have any money anymore!"
Was his money brought by the strong wind?
Looking for a corpse for a thousand taels of silver?
He didn't do this even when he was at his most arrogant, let alone losing all his wealth in one go for decades!
These gangsters have shaved him off so much that there is no hair left on him!
Bai Yu tilted his head and smiled, "Why are you so angry? It's just a list. As long as no one comes to reveal the list, the money will still be in your pocket. Leader Hu, be more generous!"
Tianbao nodded again, "Unless Uncle Duandao dies, you won't lose money."
Du Buguo turned his head and looked at it without noticing anything else, beckoning, "Come here, Big Beard, sit down and figure out the direction together. We are grasshoppers on a rope now, so we should work together!"
"Who is the grasshopper on the same rope as you!!"
"Uncle Ji Guo, we killed him together."
"You killed that!"
"The boys told him who killed the man."
Five: "Beard!"
The bearded man was forced to participate.
In order to run the route these years, the bearded man has been traveling around all year round and has made great achievements. He has managed to make a way out by relying on insidiousness, ruthlessness and double-dealing.
There is also a stronghold at Pier 12 in Changjing.
Naturally, in terms of personal connections, a young boy who is just starting out can't compare with an old guy who only cares about poison.
"The day after tomorrow when we docked at Yangzhong Pier, I sent people flying pigeons to pass the message. I first ordered people to inquire secretly in Changjing, but I may not be able to find out."
Under the night, when the bearded man spoke, his beard could only be seen trembling, and his voice was tight with frustration and anger, as rough as gravel, "Cui Yingwei was collecting news about talented people and strangers in the exile. It should be that At that time, I realized Duandao's identity, followed the clues to find out his movements, and handed a letter to the old immortal emperor. The imperial edict and the wanted order were distributed to the border towns, and Changjing must have been deployed early. I guess that at this time, Changjing and its surrounding areas All the capitals have begun to tighten their defenses. If Duandao is on the border of Changjing, he won't be able to escape for a while. We still have time."
He turned his head and looked at Du Buguo gloomily, "Speaking of which, I will help you with this matter once. After that, I will follow you at Pier 12 and follow Beishan from now on. Don't catch me digging again! I have a big beard here. I have been traveling in the world for so many years, but I cherish my life, but I am not necessarily afraid of death! I am in a hurry and the fish is dead!"
The old man groaned and patted him on the shoulder to reassure him, "Don't worry! The old man is not the one who doesn't know how to advance or retreat. How can I make you anxious? If you are really anxious, I am afraid that you will jump over the wall, right?"
"You old motherfucker, you call me a dog?!"
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, look at you like this -" Du Buguo tilted his neck back and looked at the bearded man carefully, "I don't know where the human face is! Regardless of whether he is happy or unhappy, grandpa can't tell. , How unworthy are you of being so angry with yourself?"
The bearded man pinched the blade with his backhand.
"Jie Jie Jie Jie! Kids! Go back to your room and sleep!"
"Let's go!"
It's cool when people walk out on the deck.
The bearded man pinched his curved blade and shook his beard, making it even more difficult to sleep.
By the time the cargo ship arrived in Beijing, it was already June, and the river breeze was already bringing a bit of heat.
People come and go at the docks outside Beijing, and the busy scene gives a glimpse of the prosperity of Changjing.
A group of people stood on the bow of the ship, squinting at the imperial city in the distance under the scorching noon sun.
The city wall is towering, solemn and majestic. Ordinary people would tremble and panic just by looking at that wall.
"Grandpa Du, are you going to the city?" Tianbao asked, sitting on the old man's shoulder.
"We won't go for now. Let's go to Banyuepo, Anyang Town, and see if that bitch Duandao is in Shitang Village." Du Buguo frowned slightly.
Along the way, the closer we get to Changjing, the more we can feel the oppressive atmosphere.
Sure enough, as Big Beard said, Changjing and the surrounding capitals were under martial law, and the city gates were heavily guarded, and people entering and leaving were strictly checked.
Even their identities were checked before entering the capital. Fortunately, the bearded man was quick and the identity documents he produced were flawless. Otherwise, if they had traveled by themselves, they would have been in prison by now.
"Get off the boat!" A dark bearded face appeared behind Yi Lao Si Xiao and said in a rough voice, "There are restaurants outside the pier, as well as tea and wine shops. Find a place to stay for now."
Bai Yu immediately grabbed his belt and raised a fake smile, "If you don't come with us, where are you going?"
The bearded man slapped his hand away, "Ask! News! News!"
What to guard against?
Can he run?
Even if he could escape, it would be because the temple is still there after the monk ran away.
Damn it, I have never felt so aggrieved in my entire life.
Bai Yu bowed and said respectfully, "Uncle bearded man, please!"
Tianbao tilted his head and opened his little mouth slightly. Before he could say anything, the bearded man took off his belt and purse and threw it away. He got off the boat without looking back and walked hard and heavy.
Tianbao's little face was confused for a moment while holding the silver bag. She wanted to go back as soon as possible.
