Everyone looked at each other in dismay, feeling baffled. They didn't know what was going on with the scholar, but they heard the scholar wailing loudly and saying loudly: "Why are loyal ministers like this? The family is full of loyalty, why is there such a result? The way of heaven is not fair, the way of heaven is not fair... !"

Immediately, some people realized that it was probably because the scholar saw a certain story while reading a book, that's why he suddenly became so crazy, and some people thought to themselves: "So he's a nerd!"

A wealthy businessman in brocade clothes had already asked jokingly: "Who are you referring to as a loyal family? Why is the law of heaven unfair?"

The scholar cried and said: "Zhuge Wuhou was loyal all his life, and he died after his devotion. Needless to say, his son Zhuge Zhan and his grandson Zhuge Shang were also loyal ministers, and in the end they died for the country for three generations... Isn't it true? It hurts!" At this point, he wiped his tears with his sleeves, his face full of sadness.

Everyone laughed in their hearts, thinking that this person was really stupid, but the big man in black who rescued Chu Huan had already sneered and said, "It is only natural for civil servants to remonstrate with death and generals to fight to the death. How can you talk about loyalty?" Then he snorted coldly and said, "It's just that the queen master is stupid and loyal to the mediocre master, but Zhuge and his son are not worthy of death!"

The scholar's face suddenly changed color, he stood up abruptly, raised his finger and pointed at the big man in black, his face reddened: "You...you are talking nonsense. If you are loyal, how can it be worthless?"

The big man in black sneered and said, "If you say so, Xiliang Xiao Tianwen is naturally a loyal minister. If Xiao Tianwen died at the hands of my great Qin cavalry in the future, would you cry like this?"

The scholar was suddenly at a loss for words, his face turned white and red, extremely ugly, and after a while he said: "Xiao Tianwen is a traitor, how can... how can he be a loyal minister?"

The big man in black said coldly: "To me, Daqin, Xiao Tianwen is naturally a traitor, but to the king of Xiliang, Xiao Tianwen has been loyal all his life. If it weren't for the existence of Xiao Tianwen in Xiliang, It was defeated by my Daqin iron cavalry more than 20 years ago, so how did today's disaster come about?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a person next to him said: "I just heard recently that the people of Xiliang killed General Feng, sent troops to our Great Qin Guanxi Road, and even destroyed the land of our Great Qin's three prefectures. !" Speaking of this, he sighed and said, "Once General Feng dies, who else can sit in Kansai and resist Xiliang soldiers?"

The Great Qin Empire has a total of sixteen provinces, each governing several prefectures, under which there are counties, and a three-level administrative system of road, prefecture, and county is implemented, and the prefecture where the governor's office is located is directly called the government.

Yunshan Mansion belongs to Nanshan Road, Nanshan Road has eight prefectures under its jurisdiction, and Yunshan Mansion is one of the prefectures. Because the governor's office is located in Yunshan Prefecture, it is directly called Yunshan Mansion.

This Guanxi Road is located in the northwest, and it has always been the front line to resist the attack of the Xiliang Kingdom.

As soon as this person said it, the people on board looked a little sad. Although the Kansai Road was still quite far away from them, the news of the death of General Kansai Feng had spread widely.

Few of the common people in the Qin Dynasty do not know the name of General Feng. Over the years, General Feng has been in charge of Kansai, and has thwarted the attacks of Xiliang people many times. Everyone knows that with General Feng in Kansai, it is difficult for Xiliang people to go east.

However, not long ago, there were rumors circulating among the people that General Feng, the pillar of the Northwest Great Qin Dynasty, was murdered by Xiliang people. Not only General Feng died, but also the famous Thirteen Taibao under his command were also killed.

When the bad news spread, the Daqin government and the public were shocked.

……

The sun had set, the sky and the earth had become dark, and the cable sampan had been put away. Captain Pan led the eleven sailors on board to the bow of the ship, bowed solemnly three times, and then took out ten copper coins, one by one. thrown into the river.

This is the rule before leaving the boat. Ten copper coins are used to honor the water god and pray for the water god to bless the journey to be safe and sound.

There are two types of passenger ships at Fenglin Ferry, one is going north, and the destination is Cangzhou, and the other is going south, and the destination is Yunshan Prefecture. The Jing River starts from Cangzhou in the north and runs from north to south. Winding and twisting, nearly four hundred miles long.

A shout sounded: "The ship is sailing!" The ship immediately began to sail, and the wind was favorable at this time, and the passenger ship left the pier quickly, and headed south to Yunshan Mansion in the autumn wind.

Because of the mention of General Feng's death, the cabin was silent for a long time. After a long time, a merchant sighed softly: "Once General Feng dies, the Xiliang people will continue to press on, and the court will naturally have to deal with it." The use of troops in Xiliang... the government will definitely increase taxes, and we people will inevitably bleed again!"

As soon as he said this, several people in the cabin looked ugly.

When the imperial court collects taxes, the lives of ordinary people will naturally be difficult, and these well-to-do businessmen are the key targets of the government's tax collection. In the past few years, the imperial court has raised taxes from time to time, and businessmen from all walks of life in the country are miserable.

Speaking of this, everyone was not interested and did not want to continue talking. Many people had already tightened their clothes and began to sleep against the planks of the boat.

Chu Huan also leaned against the corner, but the old man seemed to be full of thoughts, and the cabin seemed very quiet for a while.

The passenger ship headed south with the wind, but after traveling for more than ten miles, there were mountains on both sides of the river. The passenger ship was traveling on the river, and the mountains on both sides were like animal teeth, swallowing the passenger ship.

The autumn wind is bleak, and the lonely boat looks very withered in the night.

Chu Huan squinted his eyes, as if he hadn't fallen asleep, and he didn't know how long it had passed, when he heard a strange noise in his ears. When he opened his eyes, the cabin was extremely dark. If it wasn't for the two oil lamps hanging on the bulkhead, what would it be? I couldn't see them all, but through the dim light, I saw that most of the people in the cabin were holding their own packages, and they were all asleep in a daze, and two of them even snored.

The old man next to him was also sleeping against the bulkhead, but the big man in black sat up and seemed to have heard something. When Chu Huan looked at him, the big man in black was also looking at Chu Huan.

The big man in black also seemed to see that something was wrong with Chu Huan, he gently pushed his companions to wake him up, whispered a few words to one of his companions, and then led the other person carefully through the narrow gap to the cabin. Beside the door, he glanced at Chu Huan, hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing, leading his companion out of the cabin.

Chu Huan frowned and listened intently. The sound still came out repeatedly. It seemed to be the sound of impact, but it was difficult to hear where the sound came from for a while.

He picked up his package and walked out of the cabin. When he got outside, he saw the big man in black and his companions whispering something on the deck. When he saw Chu Huan coming out, the big man in black smiled lightly and said, "Your Excellency, don't you?" What did you hear?"

Chu Huan smiled and said nothing, but saw the big man in black suddenly pull out the saber from his waist, the speed was extremely fast, the blade was aimed at Chu Huan's throat in the blink of an eye, while the companion of the big man in black moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he had already It swept behind Chu Huan.

Chu Huan frowned, but there was no fear on his face, he just said lightly, "What do you mean?"

The big man in black sneered, "What is your origin?"

Chu Huan sighed, and said: "Although we are not friends, we will not be enemies either." He cast his gaze behind the big man in black, and said calmly: "If it were me, I would only think of ways to deal with the coming danger at this time , rather than asking for the identity of others."

The big man in black frowned. He seemed to feel something too. He turned his head and looked towards the river, his face suddenly changed.

The autumn moon is bleak and cold, the moonlight shines on the river surface, the river surface is shimmering, the world is peaceful, on the river surface, at this time there is a boat coming towards you, under the moonlight, you can see it very clearly.

The big man in black withdrew his knife, walked quickly to the side of the ship, looked down from the side of the ship, his expression was even more surprised, and said in a deep voice: "No, there are people at the bottom of the boat...!" Realizing something, he held the knife tightly: "There are people Chisel the boat!"

The big fellow in black was also surprised and said: "The Jingjiang River has always been peaceful, and there have never been any bandits...!"

"Someone must be robbing the ship!" The big man in black had a stern look on his face, and he ordered: "Two tigers, go in and inform everyone that there are bandits robbing the ship. If you are strong enough, take out anything and fight the bandits." Then he felt Relying on the group of boat passengers in the cabin is really unreliable, so I went to find the boat owner to organize the boatmen. Thinking of Chu Huan behind me, I turned around and asked, "Your Excellency showed a lot of skill when you boarded the boat, so it must be something that is not ordinary. Seniors, now that the enemy is at hand, please work together to resist the enemy!"

Chu Huan said: "I only have some brute strength, I'm afraid I can't help you!"

The big man in black sneered and said, "If you're not one of them, then you're a grasshopper on the same rope as us. A man should always be bloody. Is it possible that you're still ready to be slaughtered?" Not much Yan Yan took out a sharp dagger from his pocket and threw it over. Chu Huan took it, and the big man in black hurried back to find the captain.

After Chu Huan took the dagger, he felt a burst of cold air emanating from the dagger, and knew that this dagger was not an ordinary dagger, it was extremely sharp.

He looked up at the oncoming ship, because it was traveling against the wind, the speed was not very fast, but the distance between the two ships was getting closer and closer, Chu Huan could even see the figure flickering on the bow of the incoming ship, Seems like a lot of people.

The companion of the big man in black had obviously told everyone in the cabin about the danger. Chu Huan had already heard the noise coming from the cabin, and then several people came out from the cabin. The boats turned pale with fright, and screamed, and someone had already shouted: "Turn the bow quickly, there are bandits coming...!"

At this moment, Captain Pan had already led several boatmen to the bow, his face was pale, sweat was profuse on his forehead, and even the boatmen beside him looked terrified.

The big man in black followed, looked at Captain Pan, and said in a deep voice, "Are there any knives on board? We haven't distributed knives to everyone yet. Those who are good at water should go into the water quickly. There are bandits at the bottom of the boat digging the boat!"

Captain Pan panicked, his eyes flickered, seeing the bandit ship approaching quickly, it was too late to turn the bow of the ship and escape, and tremblingly said: "There are no knives on board!"

The big man in black sneered and said, "It seems that you are going to die!"

Captain Pan thought for a while, and finally said to the burly boatman Xue Laoliu: "Go and take out all the knives from the cracks in the deck, let everyone gather, and keep this boat no matter what!"

Daqin strictly forbids the use of weapons by the people, and knives are among the most restricted items. Captain Pan didn't dare to reveal that he had hidden knives at first, but now that the disaster is imminent, he doesn't care about these things.

There are seven or eight sturdy boatmen on this boat, with excellent water skills. They are not uneducated people who have been on the river all year round. Xue Laoliu listened to Captain Pan's order, waved his hand, and shouted: "Brothers, go get the knives. Fight with these bandits!"——
