please make me king

Chapter 368

On the night after Zhang Shun sacrificed to the River God, he personally went to the bank of the Yellow River to see Zhao Lizi off.That Zhao Lizi was a young and energetic boy, so he took off his cotton coat, shoes and other things without hesitation.Until there is only a pair of calf shorts left, revealing a whole body of strong muscles, it is considered dry.

This kid has been swimming in the Yellow River all year round, and he has trained to have well-proportioned muscles.He is completely different from Wukong's sharp-edged and exaggerated muscles, but his whole body looks more rounded and natural.

Zhang Shun walked two steps closer, patted his strong shoulder and said with a smile: "Good boy, can you do it? It's freezing cold today, and it's winter in March and September. It's not like the past. You must not try your best. If you can't, I will find a way." That's right. Don't do bad things with good intentions just with passion!"

Zhao Lizi is just a competitive young man. Hearing this, he quickly retorted: "Man, how can you say no? Not to mention that I grew up in the Yellow River. The stones, aquatic plants, and even fish and shrimp in this water It's all clear."

"Don't look at this rolling river like a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair. It's actually like my backyard. With my ability to go in and out of rivers and rivers, I'll go to the sea and the ocean!"

"Golden scales are not things in a pool, they can turn into dragons when they encounter wind and rain! Good boy, as long as you work hard with me, there will be a day! The world is so big that it is not limited to the Central Plains? The ocean is so wide that it is not limited to rivers?"

After Zhang Shun finished speaking, he scooped up three bowls of spirits and handed them to Zhao Lizi.Zhao Lizi finished one bowl in one breath, three bowls in a row, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, please be safe and don't be impatient, and wait until I lead the 'river god' Huang Shou to come!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't even have time to drop the bowl, he directly wrapped the cotton coat with an oilcloth and carried it on his body.Then it plunged into the rolling river with a "plop", only splashing a little spray.

Zhang Shun looked at it by the moonlight for a long time, but he couldn't see Zhao Lizi, and he was worried.Zhao Yutou saw it, and said with a smile: "My lord, don't worry, my grandson has held his breath for a long time, and he will definitely swim for a long distance."

Sure enough, after a while, Zhang Shun saw waves moving in the distance, and saw a figure appearing in the river.He is like a flood dragon, appearing and disappearing from time to time, and gradually swims to the distance.

Not to mention how Zhang Shun and others waited.Let's say that Zhao Lizi entered the water like a fish in water, and walked on waves with his feet like walking on flat ground.

He used neither breaststroke, butterfly, nor backstroke or freestyle, but what later generations called "treading water".This is a standing swimming position that saves the most effort.

Zhao Lizi played in the river on weekdays, and occasionally had cramps and fatigue, especially in the cold winter of March [-]th, when the river was cold, accidents were more likely to occur.This Zhao Lizi was the best at swimming, so he stepped on the water all the way.

The river water was very cold, but fortunately Zhao Lizi had already drank strong wine to warm his body.The wine was like a ball of flame, driving away the severe cold outside the body.

Although the Yellow River is wide, there will always be a time.It didn't take a stick of incense time for Zhao Lizi to cross the surging Yellow River and reach the other side.

However, he had other ideas.Zhang Shun promised the rebels to see the outcome within three days, but he delayed his departure for half a day. If he crossed the Yellow River according to the normal method, he would have to walk another sixty or seventy miles to Wangzhuang Village in Yanshi to meet the "God of the River" Huang Shoucai.

In order to save time, Zhao Lizi went down the river and drove directly to Mengjin with the help of the water.When they arrived at Mengjin, the water flow gradually slowed down. Zhao Lizi left the river and went ashore in order to avoid wasting more energy.

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and the shore was still dark.Zhao Lizi fumbled to dry his body that was a little stiff from the cold, and put on the padded coat again.

Although this Huang Shoucai was called the "God of the River", he actually didn't live on the bank of the Yellow River. Instead, he lived in Wangzhuang Village, Yanshi, where the Yi River and the Luo River meet.

Zhao Lizi didn't care about being tired, he didn't eat or drink along the way, he didn't stop around the clock, and finally arrived at Wangzhuang Village in Yanshi at noon the next day.

As a result, Huang Shoucai was not at home, and Zhao Lizi found out that he had gone to the river to catch fish after asking his neighbors.Zhao Lizi hurried to the Yi River and Luo River to look for him.

Fortunately, Huang Shoucai was quite famous, and all the boatmen knew him, so Zhao Lizi found Huang Shoucai who was carrying two big golden carps.

Zhao Lizi took two steps forward, pulled him to a remote place, and entrusted Zhang Shun with a word.Huang Shoucai agreed without hesitation.

It turned out that Huang Shoucai was the most famous among the boatmen of the Yellow River, and he was probably the leader of them all.It's just that last year Mengjin was hit by floods and couldn't ferry;

As a result, all the fishermen and boatmen lost their livelihoods and lived in hardship.That Huang Shoucai got Zhang Shun's silver taels before, and was going to sell him grain.It turns out that after knowing that Li Baihu had already purchased grain and grass, he made his own decisions and distributed the silver to these fishermen and boatmen to save their lives.

Zhang Shun never pursued it because of this, and Huang Shoucai felt more and more ashamed.Now that he heard that Zhang Shun was in trouble, how could he not go to rescue him?

That Huang Shoucai said to Zhao Lizi: "Boy, your grandfather knows who I am, otherwise I wouldn't have sent you here to invite me."

"Now the government has issued a strict order that boats and boats are not allowed to enter the Yellow River. The boats, no matter how big or small, are all under the supervision of the government. It stands to reason that I have nothing to do. Fortunately, there are no more boats in the Yiluo River. I just happen to be able to Mobilize them to help King Shun!"

"It's just that there is no rush for this matter. Now that the government is strictly investigating, I don't have to be blatant. You are tired all the way, just follow me back to cook this fish and eat it to warm your body. When it is late tonight, I will gather all the fishermen , Zhouzi and go together, we will not delay the matter of King Shun!"

Zhao Lizi felt at ease, wiped the sweat from his brow, and thought: I must keep an eye on him.Grandpa is old and has dim eyesight. If he misunderstands the wrong person, let him inform the government and sell King Shun, but I will die forever!
Fortunately, Huang Shoucai had no other thoughts, so he gathered fishermen and boatmen to ferry more than a hundred boats, all the way down the Yiluo River, to the Yellow River.

Zhao Lizi was happy in his heart, the great event of the Dao had been accomplished.I didn't want to go halfway, and soon after I entered the Yellow River, the boat I sat on slowed down.

Zhao Lizi hurriedly asked Huang Shoucai what was going on, and went to see Huang Shoucai and pointed to the river with his hand.Zhao Lizi lowered his head to look at the moonlight, and suddenly found that the originally rolling river had been covered with a thick layer of ice.

Zhao Lizi couldn't help being anxious, and quickly asked, "What should I do?"

Huang Shoucai was also quite anxious, but he had no choice but to say: "It depends on God's will! Either the weather will be extremely cold and frozen three feet, and King Shun will feel like walking on flat ground; or the weather will be less warm and the ships can arrive on time."
