Chapter 7 The Reader
The soldier grinned.
"Since you saved me, godmother, I naturally want to repay you."
Although the soldier said this, he put his hand on the spear gun beside him.
The soldier picked up the speargun and put it in his hand, and said quietly: "The weight is quite good, as expected it was made by the imperial court."
After Jun Han finished speaking, he looked up at Shu Yan.
Shu Yan was a little wary, and only heard the soldier continue to say: "Mother, are you from the imperial court?"
Shu Yan hurriedly said: "I just picked up a boat on the road, how can an old woman like me get involved with the court."
The soldier smiled, put the spear gun aside, hugged his chest and said, "My name is Cheng San, the godmother will remember my name."
No matter how Shu Yan looked at him, he didn't think that this man was an ordinary soldier.
Yu'an was a bold kid, and asked Cheng San directly, "Who the hell are you?"
Only then did Cheng San notice Yu'an, and when he saw the child carved in powder and jade, he smiled and said, "You must be from a rich family, how can ordinary people raise such a delicate and tender child?"
Shu Yan guarded Yu'an behind him, watching Cheng San warily.
"It's the utmost kindness to give you a ride. If you want to hit my little grandson, it's really ungrateful."
Cheng San smiled, he waved his hands and said, "Why are you so careful, my godmother? Although I'm not a good person, I won't make things difficult for you."
Cheng San took off the Han army uniform on his body, revealing his lean upper body, covered with scars and a very strange tattoo on his back.
Shu Yan vaguely remembered where she had seen it.
Cheng San bandaged himself.He whispered: "I used to work in Tun Tianjun."
Shu Yan coughed lightly.
"It turned out to be the previous Swallowing Army, so why did you join the Han Army?"
Cheng San smiled slightly, as if recalling something bad.
"Then I would like to thank Chen Shengzhi. After the Tiantian Army was gone, I was thrown into death row. Unexpectedly, when I encountered the Han army besieging the city, the county master let us death row prisoners perform crimes and meritorious deeds. I have been on the battlefield and know some ways to defend the city. Pioneer, he had won several battles, but the court reinforcements did not arrive for a long time, and that cowardly county magistrate surrendered."
Shu Yan sighed: "So, you have a lot of experience? Re-employment directly?"
Cheng San looked at Shu Yan with a sharp look in his eyes.
"I killed a Han army along the way. I was wearing their robes. I wanted to steal a horse, but the Ping'an embankment was blown up. Fortunately, I was saved by my godmother."
After Cheng San finished speaking, he even bowed to Shu Yan.
This fellow's words were half-truth, half-false, and Shu Yan didn't want to delve into it, so he said: "In short, we are now on the same boat, and it is a good strategy to go together and take care of each other."
Cheng Sansan said sarcastically, "Ganniang is right."
Shu Yan closed his eyes, deep in his heart he was very wary of this extra person.
It began to rain lightly outside again, and the air was a bit damp and cold, but Cheng San, a big man, was somewhat warmer in the cabin.
The cabin is not big at all, Shu Yan is holding Xiao Yuer on one side, while Yu'an and Cheng San are lying on the other side.
This lonely boat drifts slowly into the distance in the vast expanse of ocean.
At dawn on the second day, they reached an extremely open water surface with a high mountain in front.
The terrain in the middle of the river is flat and there are not many mountains.
Cheng Sanlue thought for a while and said: "Now we have left the middle of the river and arrived in Yingzhou. This is Qiyun Mountain in Yingzhou. It is said that Su Ranqing, the leader of Confucianism in the world, lives in it, but I don't know if it was washed away by the flood. "
When Yu'an heard this, she immediately put on a serious face.
"How can you make fun of Mr. Su like that?"
Seeing Yu'an's clenched fist, Cheng San sneered.
"It's still a small researcher, and it's useless for a scholar, don't you know?"
Although this kid Yu'an is smart, he doesn't have much experience after all, and he can't beat this cunning Cheng San.
Shu Yan had no choice but to protect her little grandson behind her.
"The world cannot live without scholars. Since they exist, they must be useful. Don't bully children like this."
They are hungry and cold now, and the rain has not stopped, so it would be good if they could go up the mountain to recuperate.
But if they all go up the mountain, the boat is left here, and if someone takes them away, it will really be over for them.
Shu Yan had no choice but to stay here to watch the boat, but if Cheng San was to go with them, Shu Yan was afraid that this guy would abduct the two children.
Shu Yan had no choice but to ask Cheng San to go find something by himself.
Although Cheng San was a little angry, he agreed with a good temper.
Shu Yan originally thought that when Cheng San was gone, she would take the two children away in the boat, but Cheng San actually carried Yu'an away.
Shu Yan was taken aback, and when he was about to stop him, Cheng San said with a half-smile: "Isn't the godmother going to leave me without me?"
Shu Yan was speechless, she glanced at Yu'an, who nodded.
The two got off the boat and climbed to a large rock in the mountains with difficulty. The mountain road had been destroyed by the flood, and only the shadows of buildings on the top of the mountain could be vaguely seen.
Shu Yan sat in the boat and waited for a long time, but heard a noise.
I saw Cheng San holding Yu'an and running towards this side quickly, and the wound on his leg opened again.
Cheng San jumped onto the boat with Yu'an in his arms, and said sharply, "Hurry up!"
Shu Yan hurriedly rowed the oars, and all of a sudden she only heard the sound of two arrows piercing the air.
Cheng San clutched his wound.
"Scholars don't want to save them when they die, they store up food in the yard, and kill people when they see people going up the mountain. Bullying others is the reason for the existence of scholars, right?"
Yu'an's face turned pale with fright, and Shu Yan couldn't help asking, "Are you hurt?"
Yu'an shook her head, and remained silent.
On the contrary, Cheng San with a big mouth told the matter directly.
"When the child arrives at the gate of the mountain, he will behave like a scholar, but the guard who guards the mountain drew his sword and prepared to kill him. Fortunately, I arrived in time and saved his life."
Yu'an said at this time: "Grandma, it's wrong to steal from someone's house."
Cheng San took out a piece of gold from his pocket at this moment.
"If we don't steal things, how can we survive."
Shu Yan lowered his eyes.
Then Cheng San continued: "Then old man Su is also smart, he knows that if the mountain gate is not locked tightly this year, he may not escape death."
Shu Yan frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
Cheng San said quietly: "The floods caused the Han army to lose part of their troops, but the goal has been achieved. I'm afraid they will leave this place soon."
Shu Yan continued: "It's a good thing to leave."
Xiao Yu'er, who had been silent all this time, said, "It's time for them to rob again."
Cheng San smiled and looked at Xiao Yu'er.
"It's a smart girl, if there is no food, how can I go back to Beijing?"
The lower reaches of the Li River, the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River, have just experienced floods. If they are being exploited by the rebels, how many people should die?
