The Submissive Emperor - Chapter 61
The moon was black and the wind was high, and the sky was thick with dark clouds that night. The waning moon, which was originally not so bright, was completely covered, and the entire surface of the river could be said to be invisible. The simple lone boat, with only a wind-proof lantern hung on the bow, drifted in the dark and endless waves.
Xiao Chengjun slowly returned to hold Lou Jing’s hand. The crane’s beak was crooked and the water was rushing, and the hull of the ship was shaking constantly, which made people feel a little bit of fear for no reason.
The ferry was small, and there were fourteen Youyun Guards remaining. Ten people were on a boat. Four people were sitting here with two masters. At this time, two people were guarding the stern, two people were squatting on the bow, and there was nothing but Yang Gong. The sound of punting.
“There is a hidden reef in front of me. Please help me with the two little brothers. I will go to the front to steer.” Master Yan handed the two oars to Yun Wu and Yun Si at the stern. He ran to the bow and took out one. With long bamboo poles to explore the way, “This place has the most reefs.”
It was cold on the river, and Gong Gong was wearing a thatch robes that could block some moisture. Gong Gong, who bowed his head and said nothing along the way, suddenly talked so much, Yun Qi and Yun Ba who stood in front looked at each other.
“The boatman, how long will it take to get to the other side?” Yunba asked tentatively.
“Hey, don’t talk.” The father impatiently interrupted Yunba’s words. He took the bamboo pole to explore the distance. The bamboo pole knocked on the stone and made a slight noise. The bamboo pole retreated a bit against the reef and was rushed. The big wave pushed aside.
Yunba breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had been worrying too much. Just after he was relieved, he heard a loud noise and the hull jolted violently.
Lou Jing grabbed Xiao Chengjun, who had almost fallen out, and hugged him in the cabin to avoid being thrown out by the big waves. Yun Wu and Yun Si, who squatted in the stern of the boat, were not so lucky. The stern was smooth and could not hold things, so they were thrown out straight.
Yun Ba grabbed Yun Qi, and when he turned his head, he was gone.
They are now in the most turbulent place in the heart of the river, and there are countless reefs blocking the road. The water has turned into a beast. Before everyone can react, another monstrous wave rolls over, directly overturning the crumbling boat. past.
The roar of the water was deafening. At the moment of the moment, Lou Jing hugged Xiao Chengjun, bounced and jumped into the boundless river.
The light boat was rolled up by the huge waves, and fell fiercely on the boulders, breaking into pieces of planks.
The icy river water came over, and Lou Jing suddenly exerted his strength before he was relieved. He was filled with the river water. The knot around his waist was tight. A strong hand grabbed his collar and pulled him. Lift up.
Lou Jing spit out the water in his mouth, struggling to go upstream, and the two rushed out of the water at the same time, taking a sigh of relief, “Cheng Jun!”
The river roared, and even though he was around, Xiao Chengjun couldn’t hear Lou Jing’s voice. He pointed straight at the reef not far away. It was the group of stones that he had just discovered with the bamboo pole.
There are knots connected, but they are not afraid of being separated from each other, the two of them no longer pull, one after another spread their hands and feet to swim there.
“Boom–” Before swimming two steps, another huge wave hits, unable to see the situation in front of them, but the two can clearly perceive the huge waves that are overwhelming, at least one foot high and swirling. Rolled him up high.
No matter how high the martial arts, under such an irresistible force, it is futile. Lou Jing only had time to grab the knot and put Xiao Chengjun in his arms with all his strength, before being slammed out by the giant wave.
The river water threw them high up like a small worm, and threw them onto the reef. Lou Jing turned around abruptly and firmly protected Xiao Chengjun in front of him, while he slammed heavily on the hard boulder.
Immediately after a huge wave hit, they were about to re-enter them into the water. Xiao Chengjun hugged Lou Jing backhand and rolled on the spot, grasping Lou Jing’s placket with one hand, and firmly grasping a protruding stone in the other, and barely stabilized it. Stature.
Lou Jing shook his dizzy head, slammed a rock in the water, lifted his internal force, and turned up from the turbulent water.
Xiao Chengjun let go in time, and Lou Jing led him to a higher place.
This place should be a protruding boulder. The rushing river water rushes from both sides of the boulder, but it can’t shake it a bit. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and are temporarily safe.
“Um…” Lou Jing snorted suddenly and fell to the ground.
“Zhuoyu!” Xiao Chengjun hugged the person, sat down, wiped the water off his face, and asked eagerly, “But it hurts? Where does it hurt?”
Lou Jing clutched his left arm and took a breath. The sharp pain in his heart made him speechless for a while, and he hit the rock on his side, fearing that his arm would be broken.
Xiao Chengjun stretched out his hand to wipe the drops of water from his face, “Zhuyu…”
“It’s okay… It’s probably hurting my arm.” Lou Jing gasped and said a word after the excitement eased.
Xiao Chengjun carefully held his right arm and moved it to Lou Jing’s chest to prevent the arm from hanging down and causing more pain.
“Ah…” No matter how careful Rao was, Lou Jing couldn’t help groaning in pain.
Xiao Chengjun was so distressed that he could only hold him tightly and gently kiss his constantly sweating forehead, “It will be bright in another hour, and Yunyi and the others will come to us.”
Lou Jing nodded slightly, leaning against Xiao Chengjun’s chest and rubbing, “Are you cold?”
The two of them were soaked, and now they were blown by the night wind, and they were suddenly cold.
Xiao Chengjun took off the coats of the two of them, twisted them a few times, and put them aside to dry, but did not loosen the knot between their waists. “Thanks to this knot, we are afraid that neither of us will survive.”
Just now in such a dangerous situation, now I think about it, if the two are not tied together, pulling each other, it is really difficult to live. Calm down is the joy of the rest of your life. The two quietly embraced each other, cuddling each other to keep warm.
Xiao Chengjun felt that the body temperature in his arms was slowly rising, and he couldn’t help being surprised. He reached out and touched Lou Jing’s forehead, “Fever, are you still traumatized?” Yi Lou Jing’s body would not be caused by blowing for a while. The cold wind will cause fever, which must be caused by trauma.
Lou Jing rubbed Xiao Chengjun’s cold cheeks, “It’s just the internal force that runs, warming you up.”
The internal martial arts passed down from generation to generation in Anguo Gongfu not only makes the body light, jumps high and runs far, and trains to a certain level, but also can use the circulation of muscles and veins to release internal force, just as it is now, and act as a human flesh heater. When Xiao Chengjun heard the words, he was a little relieved, and simply untied the two of them, pressed their cool chests together, cuddling each other to keep warm.
The river washed the boulders one by one, and the two sitting in the pile of rocks seemed to be sitting in a lone boat, sinking and wandering in the endless darkness, lonely and helpless. Fortunately, Fang felt panicked with each other by his side.
It didn’t take long for the sky to light up. Xiao Chengjun wrapped the person in his arms with a semi-dry coat, took a nap, and was awakened by the morning light.
Looking from a distance, they can see that they are in a chaotic beach. The black and blue rocks stand ruggedly and staggered. The wooden planks of the boat are still sandwiched in the cracks, and the debris of the wooden planks is hidden. A human leg, his body is blocked by a boulder, and he can’t see clearly.
Xiao Chengjun was taken aback, and pulled out the sword from his waist. The man moved his legs and slowly got up. When he saw the man’s face, he was relieved. It was Yun Qi who was good at treating trauma! Taking the sword into its sheath, Xiao Chengjun hurriedly called people over.
“This sword is still there,” Lou Jing leaned on his husband, looking at the splendid sword, “Huh? Is this Chi Xiao?”
Lou Jing hadn’t paid attention to it because the scabbard was covered with a layer of cloth. At this moment, he saw the hilt of the jade inlaid with Jiuhua jade, only to realize that this was actually the Chixiao sword that he had used to please the queen. No wonder it was in the temple. Zhongneng cut off the broadsword with one sword.
“Father and queen don’t worry, let me take this sword.” Xiao Chengjun put the sword together, but fortunately, this scabbard was buckled and replaced with another sword. It might have been washed away long ago.
Yun Qi regained consciousness, and immediately knelt down and bowed. By the way, Yun Ba who was still in a coma on the rocky beach was pushed to wake up, and the two quickly gathered. Because they were standing on the bow of the ship, the two Youyun Guards didn’t suffer any serious injuries, but were swept over by the waves and stunned.
“The subordinate slashed the man, he must not be far away,” Yunba surveyed around and returned to report, “This is Jiang Xin, and I didn’t see Yunwu and Yunsi.”
Yun Wu and Yun Si were at the stern of the boat. At this moment, I don’t know where they were caught. Xiao Chengjun sighed and touched Lou Jing’s pale face.
Yun Qi cut two pieces of wooden boards, clamped Lou Jing’s arm and tied it up. His arm hurts his muscles and bones, but it is not completely broken. There may be some lacerations on the bones, and he needs some time training.
However, Yun Yi and their boat were not close to Lou Jing’s boat due to the strong wind and waves. When they went halfway, the man who tried to harm them was restrained by Yun San and forced his sword to find its master. The ship, but the river was pitch black, and there was nothing to see.
Yun Er and Yun Shi grabbed the bamboo poles and pegged the boat by themselves. Yun Jiu questioned the man in the cabin. Although the man was familiar with waterways, there were more than one rocky beach in this area. They had to look for them one by one, and they had to guard against ships. Hit a rock. The sound of the water was so loud that it didn’t work to make any kind of shouting. After anxiously looking for an hour, the sky lightened slightly.
Seeing the two sitting on the tall boulder from a distance, the Youyun guards almost cried with joy, kneeling all together on the rocky beach to apologize.
Xiao Chengjun sat on the boat with Lou Jing in his arms, Yun Jiu tied his father to show the way at the bow, Yun Er pegged the boat, and finally reached the opposite shore without any risk. Yun Twelve and Yun Thirteen, who were holding horses, were standing at the pier. Waiting for them.
“Who let you harm us?” After finding an inn to settle down, Yun Jiu carried his father to the wood house, and asked with the bright saber in his hand.
“Spare me, I…I just acted on orders…” The man was trembling with fright. He turned upside down with just a few words. Someone explained that he had thrown the people on the boat on the rocky shoal in the middle of the river. He is five hundred taels of silver.
“Who is it?” Xiao Chengjun poured medicated oil in his hand and asked Yun Jiu while rubbing Lou Jing’s bluish back.
Lou Jing not only injured his arm, but also bruised his body. Now, lying on the bed of the inn, he hummingly asked Xiao Chengjun to rub the medicinal oil on him.
“It’s a catcher from Linjiang County.” Yun Jiu said in a deep voice, that justice was because he knew that person and dared to do this business.
“Quick catch?” Xiao Chengjun paused in his hand. It was originally expected that he had exposed his whereabouts. It was the assassins who followed in Beijing so called. But if those people, how could they point out the catch that moved Linjiang?
“It hurts…” Lou Jing sighed immediately, and the sudden hard hand hurriedly left, and he took advantage of the opportunity to rub against Xiao Chengjun’s leg to pillow it.
Xiao Chengjun was silent for a moment, then poured medicated oil and continued to knead him, “Can you find Yunwu and Yunsi?”
“No news yet.” Yun Jiu spoke of this in a low tone. Sixteen of them grew up together and were like brothers. The life of the two is unknown, and the fourteen of them are also very sad.
