A piece of paper

Qiao Hui turned around and entered the screen warily.

The sky was dark, and the glazed octagonal palace lanterns with concave and engraved precious flowers were hung on the cabin and deck. The light like yellowed milk slanted out from the solemn and solemn stamens of the precious flowers.

The cabin was not big, and Qiao Hui had nowhere to hide. He saw the tall shadow behind the screen taking off his outer shirt, inner lining, and trousers in sequence.
The friction of the silk and satin fabrics made a "rustling" sound, which was deafening in the stormy sea.

Xian Jin seemed to be frozen in place, staring straight at the screen with wide eyes.

The huanghuali wooden screen is painted with varnish, which makes the original dark color of the wood shine. The glazed carving in the middle is like an expensive version of sheepskin. The figure of the man behind the sheepskin is projected on the huanghuali wood glazed screen, one by one. , relaxed and relaxed, as if performing a slow but extremely tense shadow play.

In the hazy light and mist, the broad shoulders, narrow waist, good-looking arms, and slightly sided mandibular angle have a restrained and lingering charm that is unique to the Chinese people.
Xianjin sniffed unconsciously.

Qiao Hui didn't know whether it was cold or fear, but he changed his clothes very quickly. As soon as he walked around the screen and came out, he saw a magical scene——

The girl hanging on her heart had fair skin, delicate cheeks, and two lines of blood hanging under her tall and delicate nose.

Blood?

Qiao Hui looked stern and quickly looked out the window. No suspicion was found. After regaining consciousness, he frowned and took the silk handkerchief to Xian Jin and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong with you? Do you have a headache?" Pain? Hit your nose?"

Xian Jin stupidly picked up the handkerchief and wiped his nose, then glanced out of the corner of his eye:? She, she looked at Qiao Hui and saw that she had a nosebleed? ?

She can be considered a seasoned young lady. Although she has never done any practical training, thanks to the growing big data era, she has watched the entire Magic Mike show even if she cannot go to London.

It is a typical person who has never eaten pork, but has seen muscular wild boars all over the mountains and plains.

she was.

She!

Tangtang Dangdang, a useless vase who had seen countless muscles through the Internet cable, actually saw nosebleeds when he looked at the muscles through the screen!

I have never been so embarrassed in my entire life.

Xianjin took a deep breath and quickly determined his emotional pattern: It's okay to be embarrassed, but we'll do it secretly, and no one can see it!

Xian Jin took the handkerchief from Qiao Hui, quickly wiped away the nosebleed, and calmly spoke nonsense, "It's so dry!"

Qiao Hui turned his head and glanced at the sea, where rain was still pouring down. He frowned and slowly typed:?

"When the weather is better, I'll call the imperial doctor to come and take a look at you immediately." Qiao Hui still leaned forward with some worry, raised the back of his hand, and asked for Xian Jin's opinion, "Can I take a look?"

Exploring what?
Want to explore her passionate heart under the beautiful vase?
Show gold:?
The beauty was puzzled.

Qiao Hui raised the back of his hand and spoke concisely, "You look very hot, and you are bleeding from the nose. Shanghai is most afraid of blood caused by lack of fruits and vegetables. Some people have gum bleeding, and some people have nose bleeding, usually accompanied by high fever. I think Touch your forehead."

Oh, scurvy, a disease caused by insufficient vitamin C intake among sailors.
Xianjin wanted to say: It’s not that the intake of fruits and vegetables is insufficient~ but it’s hard to explain exactly where the deficiency is.
Xianjin stretched out his head with determination as if he was thrusting a tiger's head into a guillotine.

The back of Qiao Hui's hand touched Jin's forehead. His body temperature was normal. Qiao Hui breathed out lightly, "It's okay."

Qiao Hui looked nervous.

Xianjin was a little uncomfortable with Qiao Hui turning off the gag function. He raised his voice high with a smile that was deliberately concealing something, "Why are you so nervous! Could it be that someone has suffered from scurvy? How can he be so easy to do so."

"Haixing's brother was the one who bled to death from his seven orifices."

Qiao Hui looked serious, "At that time, we were wandering on the Jian'an Channel. We were pursued by Western Fujian troops behind us, and blocked by Japanese troops in front of us. There were even a few pirates chasing us around aimlessly. We hadn't eaten for twenty days at that time. Vegetables and fruits, Haixing’s brother died of blood paralysis.”

Xianjin's smile froze on his face deliberately: This was so bad that he woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to slap himself.
Xianjin opened his mouth, banging, and a bitter and pungent taste suddenly emerged in his throat: After Qiao Hui came back, she rarely spoke clearly about the suffering she suffered at sea. Even if she asked, she would only use words such as "hairtail fish" "The words were used as a gag.

But it is not difficult to piece together the bloody and cruel past from those detailed words.

Xianjin's eyes became serious, he looked at Qiao Hui seriously, then looked at Ye Yu and Mo Kong outside the window, and said softly, "I'm out of my filial piety period."

Qiao Hui didn't understand what he meant, "Huh?"

Xian Jin leaned back in his chair and said, "Last year, thatch bookstore, when you just came back, you said that I was in the mourning period and couldn't drink with you, so just ask me to accompany you - I was out of the mourning period, and now I can accompany you. you've been drinking."

Then he raised his hand toward the window and said calmly, "It's still raining, and I can't get back to the boat - the wooden boards are slippery when wet, and I don't want to fall into the sea and feed the sharks."

After Qiao Hui was stunned, he looked at Xian Jin calmly. After a moment, Fang Shulang smiled and asked with deep eyes, "What should you drink?"

He turned around and pulled out a long and thin wooden board from the bottom of the cabin, ". Yuquan wine, green plum wine, Gujing wine, Sangluo wine"

As he spoke, he muttered to himself, "It's still Gujing Bar. We Anhui people drink Huizhou wine, and it doesn't taste spicy at all."

He took out two glass cups with two fingers. The wine was clear and filled up like beads falling on a jade plate.

Qiao Hui pushed a bottle in front of Xian Jin, then raised his head and drank down his wine in one gulp. He looked at Xian Jin seriously with a steady gaze, and then smiled for some reason, showing his standard eight teeth.

Xian Jin lowered his head and took a sip.

Well, it's a good wine, clear and warm, not spicy in the mouth, and won't make people grin from ear to ear.

Baring his teeth and grinning is inevitably a bit unsightly.

The alcohol content of this wine shouldn't be too high.

Xianjin made a preliminary judgment in his mind about how much to drink.

Xianjin placed the cup on the table and seemed to be organizing his words. After a moment, he said, "Tell me about those two years."

Qiao Hui filled another cup, raised his head again and drank it all in one gulp. The corners of his lips curved into a familiar curve, looking like a dog who was not stingy, "What are you talking about? Grilled hairtail, steamed hairtail, chopped pepper hairtail - oh, we didn't Chopped peppers, we are taking the sea route, there is no way to go to Hunan to steal chopped peppers.”

Xian Jin laughed, his eyes narrowed like the moon, and immediately after he smiled he kept a straight face, "Have I ever said, if you mention that fishy and smelly thing again, I will immediately throw you into the sea to feed hairtail fish!"

Qiao Hui was so frightened that he raised the white flag with both hands, "Please spare my life, heroine!"

Xianjin looked as fair as a clear soup master, "It's just a matter of three things. I'll spare you this time, but not next time."

Qiao Huifang smiled happily, then raised his head and drank a glass of wine. He placed the empty glass on the table. Finally, he didn't rush to fill it up. Instead, he turned to look out the window, as if thinking about where to start.

I seem to have forgotten everything.

Really, it's like the labor pains have been repaired by time, and all the memories are intact again.

Everything and everyone that was killing him became a blur.

Qiao Hui didn't know where to start.

Xianjin saw Qiao Hui's hesitation, thought for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Besides the wound on your neck, are there any other fatal injuries?"

Qiao Hui seemed to have encountered a scoring question that he finally knew how to solve. Ru Mengchu woke up and answered the question, "That's a lot - a dagger scratched across his stomach; a halberd was hit in his chest, oh, what about the head? The bow and arrow shot out of nowhere almost took away half of my ear."

Qiao Hui laughed, and the always brilliant young man continued to joke, "You don't know how scared I am! A small number of the seniors on our pirate ship only have one eye, so they cover it with a black leather muff - if I My ears are gone, so unsociable!" Xianjin blinked, his nose was a little sore, and he simply lowered his head and took another sip of wine.

The wine wasn't really spicy, so it wasn't very good at soothing the astringent feeling that suddenly filled Xianjin's heart.

Xian Jin imitated Qiao Hui's example and drank the empty cup. He then brought the empty cup to Qiao Hui and ordered, "It's full."

Qiao Hui lowered his eyebrows and obeyed.

"Fortunately." Xian Jin raised his head and drank the second glass of wine.

Qiao Hui was in the invisible place where Xian Jin was blocked by the raised cup, his eyes were gentle and he nodded, "Yes, fortunately."

Wine, keep filling it up.

Xian Jin tilted his head and continued to ask, "Pirates, why do you listen to me?"

Qiao Hui's drinking slowed down, "Because I'm cruel enough. If anyone doesn't listen to me, I'll hang their head on the mast."

"You didn't even kill a chicken when you were in Jing County." Xianjin said.

Qiao Hui nodded, "The situation is stronger than the people. I have no way to go. Using money to open a way at sea won't work - pirates are not very benevolent and moral. If you kill me, I will eat you. The big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats it." Xiami, I don’t want to be a big fish and I don’t want to be Xiami. I just want to be a human being. But pirates have been floating on the sea for a long time. They are whale sharks and evil crocodiles, but they are not human beings.”

Show your money and say silently, have another drink.

Qiao Hui filled the cup again, "Don't drink it after finishing this cup - are you hungry? Can I give you a bowl of noodles?"

Xianjin nodded, "I'm hungry. I want some noodles, and a big piece of meat."

After a pause, he said, "I want to drink some wine too. This wine is not spicy or intoxicating."

Qiao Hui:? Who told you that wine that’s not spicy won’t be intoxicating?

But Xianjin's eyes were clear and his speech was clear. Qiao Hui did not underestimate the woman's drinking capacity. After nodding slightly, he turned around and lit the clay stove, boiled water, sprinkled two handfuls of dry noodles, and then got up and went to the kitchen next door to get some. As he simmered in a bowl of kelp and pork ribs soup, he asked Xianjin, "Is it okay if there is no meat and only pork ribs?"

Xianjin frowned, "No, eat a handful of meat, eat a handful of meat, eat a handful of thick and beautiful meat!"

Qiao Hui accepted his fate and put down the soup bowl, and went to the kitchen to find a handful of meat for the princess.

"I really can't find any meat." Qiao Hui handed Xian Jin a clean bowl of large, sugar-colored stewed meat, "Can you roast the meat?"

Looking through the Xianjin probe, the roasted meat is shiny and shiny, a bit like oiled breast muscles.
Xian Jin nodded.

Qiao Hui took the noodles out of cold water, heated the roasted meat over the fire and spread it on the noodles as a saute, and handed it to Xian Jin.

A set of movements flowed smoothly, and he was very familiar with it.

Xian Jin took the bowl and asked, "You used to cook noodles?"

Qiao Hui smiled and shook his head, "What kind of noodles are you cooking? There is no noodles to eat. The pirates don't even dare to dock, and they don't grow crops! They only eat meat! They eat fish! Sometimes there is no salt! That time I saw starfish. My brother died of paralysis, so when the island was docked, I quickly grabbed a few grasses and chewed them up - it was so painful that I could die."

Xian Jin lowered his head to eat the noodles. As he ate, he blinked and a tear fell into the noodles.

I have some food in my stomach, so I feel free to drink wine boldly.

There is a kind of person who becomes dizzy after drinking alcohol, but looks sober and rational.

Qiao Hui drank several glasses of wine with her as she looked golden.

"There must be something good, right?" Xianjin crossed his legs on the stool, put his hands on the insteps, and looked at Qiao Hui with burning eyes, "Except for the hairtail fish, except for the bitter grass, except for the dead companions, except for the fatal wounds all over his body, There’s always something good, right?”

Qiao Hui held the cup in his hand and said immediately without thinking, "Of course."

Xian Jin: "Hmm?"

"Three hundred miles south of Changle, Fuzhou, there is a mangrove forest on a small island." Qiao Hui's eyes were gentle, very gentle, "Oh, it's this season, if it gets hotter, there will be dots of fireflies lying on the wet ground at night The light from the fireflies on the thick water plants is like stars.”

That happened to be the night when his throat was slashed and his blood sprayed all over the ground.

He lay on the water plants on the desert island as if he was waiting to die.

Dead companions lay scattered around him.

He is also dying.

Blood spurted out from his neck, and even when he lay down, the feeling of weightlessness came over him like a tide from his feet to his head.

He was really going to die.

Otherwise, how could you see Xian Jin's face in the starry sky?

Qiao Hui couldn't help but smile, "This is the best thing that happened to me at sea."

Qiao Hui's sudden tenderness made Xian Jin feel a little hot for no reason.

Xianjin moved his body and turned his head to try to shake off the moisture and heat. At the same time, he looked around awkwardly and tried to find something to say. "Why do I feel that your boat is much thicker than mine?"

Qiao Hui nodded, "It really needs to be thicker."

Immediately, he dipped his fingers in wine and drew a pointed triangle on the table, "If there is a wave that cannot be resolved by reefing and changing the sail, the 'Yi Yin' will sail here."

Qiao Hui clicked on the top of the triangle, "We need to sail here, face the enemy head-on, and break the wind directly."

The ship's planks are thicker because when facing stronger winds and waves, the ship is most likely to be broken into pieces first.
Xian Jin was a little dazed and said blankly, "Is it because you are the boss?"

Because you are the boss of that group of mute pirates, so even if you face the storm, you have to be the first one?
Monk Xianjin Zhanger said something that he couldn't understand, but Qiao Hui instantly understood her meaning.

Qiao Hui smiled and nodded, "Yes, you are right."

The dim light slanted down like yellowed milk.

A trace of light slipped through the net, and it happened to shine on the lips of Qiao Hui's thin lips.

Xian Jin couldn't help but move his gaze to the place where the light that slipped through the net shone.

Qiao Hui was shocked by the sight, pursed his lips uncomfortably, and turned his head slightly.

When I first woke up from a dream, I saw the cup was full of wine, so I raised my head and drank it all.

Just in an instant.

Xianjin slapped the table, stood up halfway, and stretched out his upper body in an arc with ulterior motives, then raised his head and lips. (End of chapter)
