There are many boats on the Jingshui River, no one will pay attention to these boats. The three big boats just arrived at the place where the two currents meet in Dingping County. They lined up diagonally in a row as required, and the people on the three boats also shouted. Things like the boat broke down.
They set up springboards to each other and looked like a mess. The boat coming from the Luoshui River was immediately swayed by the blocked rapids. Fortunately, the people on the boat reacted quickly and went down several oars in a row, and the boat hit Turning to the lower reaches of the Jingshui River.
After being rushed out for hundreds of meters, he leaned on the side and looked at the big ship in the distance in shock.
As soon as the boats behind saw this, they stopped one after another, and never dared to go there anymore. On a boat that also stopped afterwards, a crowd of people were drinking at the bow and saw that the talented boat was washed like a leaf. Go, many people laughed.
Only sitting there, Mi Fan, who hadn't eaten a bite of food, had a pale face. Just when the boat was washed away, he felt that his eyes were dark and he couldn't see anything. After a while, he recovered.
He wanted to drink some wine to suppress his shock, but found that his hands were shaking and he could no longer get the wine glass, so he could only sit there and breathe hard.
"Brother Weitong, are you uncomfortable again?" Guo Ren asked with concern when he saw Mi Fan's face.
Mi Fan shook his head slightly. In fact, he really wanted to persuade the boat travelers to abandon this plan. He had never felt like this before. It was terrible, and he didn't know what would happen.
But he also knew that it was useless to say anything now, and the people on the boat would not listen to him, even if they were very obedient in the past.
Waiting for the boat to pass by, already knowing the situation ahead, and cursing there, why is it good that the three boats are broken? Why did it happen so badly to that place? It was still broken together. Look at the flag on the boat. It was a boat from Jingshui Boat. There were smart people who immediately guessed that it was caused by the boat's people deliberately.
People like Guo Ren listened to other people's curses, and didn't care at all. What if they cursed? Isn't it difficult
Some people on the boat did not know that they were tired and scolded, especially those who had shipped seasonal vegetables and fruits. Every time there was a delay, something might rot.
But they had no choice but to wait for the three ships to leave quickly. The courageous person who thought he was good at technology tried to move forward, but without exception, they were all rushed downstream, honestly. Leaned against the shore.
Half an hour passed, and the three big boats that seemed to have nothing to do were still parked there. The boats above that could have passed this way also stopped. The boats on the Luoshui River here are also next to each other, waiting for that. Three big ships leave.
"Hahahaha!" Looking at the anxious appearance of those people on the boat that stopped on Xiao Luoshui, the people on the boat laughed again.
Mi Fan listened to the side, and his heart became even more irritable.
Just as some people cursed and some people laughed, six large ships suddenly appeared from the upper reaches. The people who had just arrived behind the three large ships immediately changed their flags to those of Jingshui Boat.
Those small boats staying with the cargo, thought that the three previously stopped ships were indeed broken, and the ships behind were here to help, otherwise they wouldn’t be so close, but the merchants on Mifan’s side were puzzled. Now, where did the six ships behind come from
While everyone was thinking about it, the six boats had docked there like the three boats in front, and they had jumped on each other. At the same time, they also got on the outermost boat of the three boats. Someone pulled them. Get out of the boat with the iron rope.
When the people on the three boats were still in a daze, these three boats and the six boats were all connected by more than 20 small iron chains.
"You are..." The people on the three boats couldn't understand what was going on, and a person who led the boat grabbed a person who was still nailing the chain and asked.
The man raised his head and glanced impatiently, "Listen to the command, you are responsible for blocking the water, and someone will tell you what to do next."
As he spoke, this man had nailed the places in front of him that needed to be nailed, turned around and ran back, as did the other people who came here. The people on the three boats looked at the flags and looked at these individuals. The clothes he wears are not easy to stop for a while, and they are indeed boat trips.
Waiting for the people on the six boats to retreat, they saw some small boats being lowered from the boats, and the people on the big boats jumped onto the boats, and disappeared downstream in the blink of an eye due to the impact of the current.
When the last boat was out of sight, thick smoke burst out from the six big boats. Not long after the smoke appeared, the people on the three boats saw the fire on the six boats.
"Quickly, cut off the chains." The person in charge on the third ship, seeing this situation, immediately reacted and shouted to the shipmen. Some of them went to find the tools immediately, but he hadn't waited for him to find them. Tools, a place was blown away with a bang from the big ship nearest to them.
The fire rain fell from the sky, and some of them inevitably fell on other ships. The fire was still mixed with oil, and it started to burn when it fell on the deck.
The wind on the river was already strong. The fire blazed and ignited the nearest ship. In addition, the six connected ships blasted one after another. The boatmen on the three ships no longer looked after. Don't cut any iron chains, one by one, relying on the good water quality, one after another jumped off the boat and was rushed downstream by the current.
The boatman's water quality is indeed not bad. After he got into the water, he didn't call for help stupidly. He held his breath, and rushed away for a certain distance before showing his head to call for breath.
One by one looked back in horror, only to see that the ship over there was no longer saved, and all the people on the three ships jumped off, seeing that they were swallowed by the fire, but there was nothing to do.
Waiting for the people on the passing boats to be stupid, Mi Fan and others are also stupid, fast, it is too fast, the six boats came to a halt, and then caught fire, not even a quarter of an hour was used, now again I wanted to find the people on the boat, but they were long gone.
How did it come, what was going on, I don't know, the only thing I know is that the ship burned, six ships burned three ships.
"Why is this? Where did the ship come from? Why is it under the banner of our boat line?" Guo Ren, who was stupefied, reacted first, looking at the burning ship and shouting loudly.
The other businessmen also didn’t understand, and they shouted. When they shouted, their identities were exposed. The small boats around had cursed people just now. There was no definite goal. Now they’re all right. They found the goal. It's the boat rider.
Just like the boat exploded just now, the people in the boat also broke out, and the people in the boat started to curse at them, and blocked their boat with the boat to prevent them from leaving.
After scolding each other for an hour, the ship over there has completely burnt up, and it is impossible to save it. After a while, it will sink.
At this moment, some clippers came from downstream, the government officials standing on the bow, and some of them were government soldiers. As soon as these ships arrived, they began to control the people in those small boats.
Mi Fan and others were no exception, they were also taken care of by several people.
Don’t let go, don’t ask questions, just watch it, and wait until the sky gets darker, the boats are almost burnt, except for the places where they enter the water, and the rest are not changed. Charcoal becomes ashes.
The government officials and soldiers in the mansion were not idle either, pulling the fleet away, and from time to time salvaged a few things, including tea, rice noodles, and salt in wooden barrels.
While the guards waited, these government officials and soldiers began to ask one by one, whose ship was it? Why are there some salt teas on the boat? Some people even went to the place where the fire was still burning, pushed away the burning planks, and cast a net down. When the net was lifted, some weapons were still hanging on it.
It’s not difficult to ask this kind of thing. The ship’s crew was still there. As soon as he asked, he found that the boat was a Jingshui Ship. Someone immediately found Mi Fan and others and asked: “Why are there such important things on the ship, even Is it a weapon?"
"This officer, we didn't have it on our ship. It should be the cargo pulled by the next six ships. It has nothing to do with us. You think, if it is our ship, how could it be possible to install weapons on it? How could it be possible? on fire?"
A merchant in a boat was there to explain and reasoned to the questioner.
"But we just asked. Then the next six ships also flew your flags. If they weren't yours, why would they stop there at the same time? Besides, I don't know which ship came from what I picked up. "
The man asked again.
The businessman just now can only continue to explain: "Guard, how do we know why they are flying our flag? Why did they stop there? Our three ships were broken, so we stopped."
"Oh? You don’t know, that is to say you don’t know each other? Then how can you let their people get on your boat? When you asked others just now, they said, and watched the people on the six boats got on the original stop. On the boat here, your boat is really broken? Don’t you need to call a few boatmen over to talk about it, it seems that what you said is different."
This person asked again, just to ask what other people couldn't say.
"This... this..."
"I suspect that you are colluding with the enemy. Wait for someone from the mansion to talk about it. Now no one is allowed to leave, otherwise, kill!"
"Kill!" When this person finished chanting the word kill, the other government officials and soldiers also yelled at the same time.
"When it's over, I know it's not that simple, collaborating with the enemy, the sin of destroying the door." At this time, Mi Fan finally understood where the uncomfortable came from.
