Yaoniang's appetite was whetted by Pei Liang, and she wanted to pester him to tell him how amazing and talented these ten people in the world were, especially the first and second ones.
Pei Liang still insisted on telling her one story a day, and it was unbeatable.
Yaoniang said that no one cared about it, but she secretly made a note of it in her heart.
In fact, the food problem can be easily solved. Catching a few fish is not a piece of cake with Pei Liang's skills.
What was really in short supply was fresh water. After a day, both kettles were bottomed out.
Yaoniang found Pei Liang miserably: "I'm thirsty!"
Pei Liang pointed at the endless river water around him: "Isn't this all water?"
"You are kidding me, is this water drinkable?"
"There's nothing I can do." Pei Liang spread his hands.
"I don't care, you have to change it for me!" Yaoniang said angrily.
"Change, how?" A faint smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Pei Liang's mouth, which was a little evil.
Yaoniang looked up and down and sneered: "Come on, tell me, what did you think of?"
Even if he beat Pei Liang to death, he didn't have the guts to say it. He just shook his head when he heard the words.
"Tell me, if you dare to think but not to speak, what kind of hero are you?" Yaoniang continued to encourage.
Pei Liang could only make nonsense: "I misunderstood, I watched the stars at night, it will rain today, you can drink the rainwater!"
Yaoniang raised her head and glanced at the scorching sun in the sky, and couldn't help but sneer again: "Okay, if it doesn't rain today, I will chop off that... thing of yours to prevent you from changing again!"
After saying a harsh word that made Pei Liang's hair stand on end, Yaoniang turned and left.
In the boat building, Lu Qingyan and Xiao Wan were also sitting there sickly, licking their dry and flaky lips with their tongues from time to time.
The feeling of thirst is more unbearable than hunger.
Chengdu is at least a thousand miles away from Yujing by water. If there is no water supply, it is estimated that everyone except Pei Liang will be mummified by the time the ship reaches Yujing.
"Why isn't it raining today?" Xiaowan used to think it was annoying when everything was wet on rainy days, but now she longed for a hearty rain more than ever.
But looking at the way God is like this, I'm afraid he won't be able to fulfill people's wishes.
"Miss, just in case, I mean just in case, if there is still no water, can you finally..."
Xiao Wan blushed and quietly came closer. Before she could finish speaking, Lu Qingyan's tone turned cold.
"No, stop talking"
"This way at least one of us can survive..."
"I said no! Don't you understand?"
Xiao Wan had never seen Lu Qingyan look so fierce. He was frightened and remained speechless for a long time.
In her impression, Lu Qingyan, who had always been as gentle as the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River, had never been so angry with her.
Lu Qingyan's chest rose and fell violently. She turned to look at Xiao Wan, who was already frightened. She suddenly put her arms around her neck and held her in her arms.
"I'm sorry... I don't want you all to die for me, I want you all to live!"
Tears burst out of Xiaowan's eyes instantly and she hugged her master tightly.
"It's not a big deal if we don't have to say goodbye to each other."
Pei Liang suddenly appeared behind the two girls, with a relaxed smile on his face.
Lu Qingyan immediately sat down and lowered her head, her neck turning red with embarrassment.
The little boy stood up and said, "If you don't stand and talk, your back will hurt. You can find some water!"
Facing Xiao Wan's anger, Pei Liang hesitated to speak.
At this time, Yaoniang came over, pointed at Pei Liang and said to Xiaowan: "This guy said it will rain today, so we will wait until the evening. If the rain doesn't come, Xiaowan, what do you think we should do?"
"Drink his blood!" What Xiao Wan blurted out not only stunned Yaoniang and Lu Qingyan, but Pei Liang was also shocked.
"Sister, you are still ruthless!" Yao Niang regained her composure and gave the maid a thumbs up.
People should not be judged by their appearance. I would not have thought that this delicate-looking girl could turn out to be a ruthless person at a critical moment.
"Are you crazy?" Lu Qingyan gently pulled Xiaowan's arm. At this moment, Lu Qingyan had a strange expression on her face, feeling both funny and a little scared.
Xiao Wan was full of resentment towards Pei Liang, and all he said were angry words. He looked away awkwardly.
Pei Liang scratched his head, turned around and left.
"What are you doing?" Yaoniang shouted.
"Go up to the altar and practice this." Pei Liang's words made the three women laugh.
———
In the afternoon, Lu Qingyan fell into a drowsy sleep when she was suddenly woken up by someone pushing her:
"Miss, miss, wake up quickly, it's going to rain."
In the haze, Xiao Wan's voice full of surprise came into his mind, and Lu Qingyan just raised her head in a daze.
A moist earthy smell penetrated into the nostrils along with the strong wind.
“It’s really raining”
Lu Qingyan sat up suddenly because this smell was so familiar to her.
"Yes, we are saved!" Xiao Wan was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.
When the two of them ran to the empty stern deck, bursts of thunder could be heard from the dark cloud-covered sky.
The terrifying black clouds and thunder and lightning seemed to cling to the distant river surface.
The howling wind made it almost impossible to keep one's eyes open.
"It's raining! It's raining!"
Yaoniang was sitting on the wooden board on the side of the ship, very happy.
She lifted up her skirt, revealing her two smooth and white thighs, kicking them back and forth playfully.
Xiaowan couldn't see it, walked to Yaoniang, and whispered: "Tuck your legs, be careful of that person seeing you."
The person Xiaowan mentioned was obviously Pei Liang, who was standing on the ship's roof and looking around.
"It's okay. Sooner or later, I will be his, and he can see whatever he wants."
Yaoniang smiled widely and didn't care at all.
Xiaowan shook his head, turned around and left.
"Pei Liang, look here!"
Yaoniang waved enthusiastically to the man on the upper deck of the boat and untied her clothes from her chest, revealing her purple underwear and a large area of snow-white skin.
Xiaowan and Lu Qingyan looked at each other in surprise. This was the first time for them to see such a hot and bold Yaoniang.
Compared to Xiao Wan, who was shy and showed a hint of disdain, Lu Qingyan suddenly felt like a fire was lit in her heart.
Years of indoctrination and suppression by feudal etiquette gave her the urge to break through this shackles.
Dare to love and hate, the unrestrained Yaoniang made Lu Qingyan jealous for the first time.
The man on the upper deck heard the woman's shout, glanced twice, turned around, and raised his head proudly.
"Smelly Pei Liang, what are you pretending to be!"
Yaoniang cursed angrily before putting on her clothes angrily.
When the first raindrops began to fall, Pei Liang had already moved out a wooden barrel.
"It looks like it's raining a lot. You can take a shower soon, but be sure to take off your clothes first so you don't catch a cold!"
Pei Liang didn't care whether it was appropriate or not, he just said everything he wanted to say.
"What are you worried about?" Xiao Wan pulled Lu Qingyan and said with a wary look.
Pei Liang just waved his hand when he turned around:
"Don't worry, I will accompany Lao Yuan in the cabin. Call me out after washing."
Seeing Pei Liang's back walking into the ship building, Yaoniang sighed.
"Whatever he really wants to do, he has already done it. Who can stop him!"
Although Xiao Wan still snorted a little unconvinced, she had to admit that this was the truth.
There was a hint of distress in Lu Qingyan's eyes. This man was always like this. Even if he encountered any misunderstanding, he didn't like to argue.
The stuffy cabin was filled with a faint rotten smell. Although it was not rotten, it still made people feel uncomfortable after smelling it for a long time.
Pei Liang calmly sat down next to the wooden board where Yuan Qianqiu's body was parked, where there was still some ventilation.
"Lao Yuan, we two brothers are almost the same. We have never touched a woman in our lives, but you are more miserable. At least I still have a chance."
"You said that in this world, people come in a hurry and leave in a hurry, which is meaningless. It's not worth it."
If he had wine on hand, Pei Liang would definitely have a drink with someone after saying this.
Sometimes the higher you stand and the bigger the scenery you see, the more disappointed you are with the world.
…
The storm at sea is much more violent than on land.
Xiao Wan was still worried. While his master was taking off his clothes, he stood alone at the door of the cabin, staring closely at what was inside.
people.
Pei Liang had noticed her a long time ago and didn't take it seriously. He just chatted with Yuan Qianqiu about whatever came to his mind.
After waiting for a long time, Yaoniang and Lu Qingyan walked down together after getting dressed.
"Go and wash it quickly. Rinse the barrel after washing to store more rainwater."
Yaoniang shook her wet hair and felt refreshed.
Lu Qingyan nodded to Xiao Wan and motioned for her to go quickly.
When Yaoniang first walked into the cabin, she couldn't help but frown, made an excuse and went out. Only Lu Qingyan slowly walked to Pei Liang.
"What did you and Master Yuan say?" Lu Qingyan asked softly.
"It's nothing, just tell me some feelings about life." When Pei Liang said this, he narrowed his eyes slightly. In fact, his eyes were very beautiful. Like Lu Qingyan, they were both narrow and beautiful eyes.
When that expression of hope and innocence appeared on Pei Liang's face after seeing through the chaos of the world, Lu Qingyan suddenly fell into a trance.
This was the scenery that moved her most in the world.
"Actually, I know that Lao Yuan has been in trouble since he separated from us!"
Pei Liang's words instantly brought Lu Qingyan back to reality.
"for……."
"Why didn't I say yes?" Pei Liang said, looking at the woman with a complicated expression.
"Because Lao Yuan has already made up his mind to die, he told me with his eyes that I must not point him out."
"I know Lao Yuan's skills well, and I have no problem dealing with ordinary guards. But since Liu Jinyan dares to arrest me openly, there must be experts around him. Lao Yuan will definitely be defeated, and Liu Jinyan will definitely take revenge on him..."
Lu Qingyan looked at Yuan Qianqiu's pale face and suddenly covered her mouth and cried bitterly.
Pei Liang took a deep breath and said slowly: "I am not saying this to be a hindsight, but I just want to tell you clearly that Lao Yuan's death has no direct relationship with you. You don't have to blame yourself. It was just a man's choice. He wanted to protect If it were me, I would do the same thing."
———
There was a huge storm on the deck, and the sky and the earth were completely white.
Lu Qingyan returned to the room with Xiaowan's support, and only Yaoniang stood on the ship's roof with interest.
Pei Liang took off his shirt in the rain, revealing his well-proportioned and strong body.
After wiping the rainwater on his body twice, Pei Liang turned his head and showed a helpless expression: "Go back."
"You're a big man and you're still afraid of people looking at you. How can we be the same!" Yaoniang's sarcastic voice came through the sound of rain.
Pei Liang didn't care and simply took off his clothes.
