sea

Chapter 39
Lu Jian frowned and said, "Uncle Zhou, you have treated me well, but Gu Zhen and I have lived and died together, and we are friends of life and death." Zhou Zumo changed his face and said, "You want to help him?" Lu Jian still shook his head.

"Okay." Zhou Zumo clapped his hands and said, "It's fine if you don't help each other." He thought to himself that there are so many people, and it's easy to deal with Gu Zhen. The help is true, but whoever dares to provoke, don't blame me for being ruthless."

As soon as he said this, the boat was silent, Lu Jian's expression was peaceful, but everyone could feel the oppressive aura on him.Zhou Zumo couldn't do anything, he stumbled bitterly, turned around and went back to the cabin.

All the sea guests dispersed angrily.Although Lu Jian calmed down the crowd, he knew that he had a grudge with these friends, and felt a little sad. He walked to the bow of the boat and stared at the sea in a daze.

Suddenly Gu Zhen laughed and said from behind: "You say we are life-and-death friends, maybe it's wishful thinking?" Lu Jian said lightly: "I'll just treat you as you are. I don't care what you think."

Gu Zhen was silent for a while, then smiled suddenly: "You are also very stubborn, but you are very right to my taste. Humph, don't look at Zhou Zumo's crowd, if there is a real fight, he will suffer a lot at nineteen. Aren't you helping me today? , but helped that idiot." Seeing Lu Jian staring into the distance, he remained silent, and couldn't help laughing, "What are you thinking? Ha, miss a girl?"

Lu Jian shook his head and said, "I want Fomalhaut." Gu Zhen asked strangely, "Isn't that a star in the sky?" Lu Jian said, "It's not a star, but a civet. After I was caught by Sha Tianhuan, I never died." I haven't seen it, and I don't know where it has gone? It's a pity that the prison island is too big, and I don't have time to find it." Speaking of this, the sadness in my heart is beyond words.

Seeing that he was injured by an animal, Gu Zhen was amused, but when he saw his expression was miserable, he couldn't help comforting him: "As long as the cat lives, if the opportunity comes, we will see you again."

Lu Jian nodded and said: "The Fomalhaut sect is smart and vigilant, and there must be a way to save itself." Even so, he still brooded, and suddenly asked, "Gu Zhen, are you really the young master of the East Island?"

Gu Zhen smiled and said: "It used to be, but it's not anymore. Now I'm the number one fugitive in the East Island, and everyone can be punished. Aren't you afraid of being implicated by me?" Lu Jian said with a wry smile: "Most people in the East Island are evil Vicious, you may be a good person if you are their fugitive." Gu Zhen clapped his hands and laughed.

Lu Jian looked at Gu Zhen and sighed: "You are so strange, whether you are in prison or running away, you can always laugh so happily." Gu Zhen smiled and said: "It's innate, I love to laugh since I was a child, and the small characters are easy to laugh. It's called Xiaoer. But people who are afraid of me call me a smiling tiger." At this point, both of them laughed, and Lu Jian only felt that being with this life-and-death friend made him feel extremely happy in his heart. Easily resolved.

With strong armor and powerful guns, the battleship was able to ride the wind and waves without hindrance, and in a few days it approached Middle Earth.On this day, Lu Jian was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt someone slapping him, and when he opened his eyes, it was Gu Zhen.But seeing him pointing his index finger up to signal silence, he got up.Seeing Gu Zhen beckoning to him again, and going out first, Lu Jian got up and followed in a daze.

The two walked on tiptoe, and came to a bulkhead. Gu Zhen pressed his ear to the wall, and Lu Jian acted like a law, but when he heard the human voice, it was Zhou Zumo who spoke.With a heavy tone, he said in a low voice: "Now that Mr. Shen has lost the blunderbuss, everyone is uncomfortable. The only way is to capture this battleship and dedicate it to Mr., maybe you can redeem your sins!"

Luo Xiaosan interjected: "I'm afraid that the surnamed Gu won't agree. In the past two days, he has been gesticulating in front of us and acting strangely. Just watching him makes people angry."

Zhou Zumo said: "The martial arts surnamed Gu are mediocre, not to be feared. The one to worry about is Xiao Lu. If he can be restrained, the surnamed Gu can only be captured without a fight. If he can capture the young master of the East Island alive, it will not only be a redemption, but also a great achievement. One thing, once Mr. Shen is happy, my status in the Ministry of Heaven will be different in the future."

Lu Jian was shocked when he heard that, when the cabin was silent, Luo Xiaosan suddenly said: "Little Lu is very good at martial arts, how can he be restrained?"

"That kid who doesn't know current affairs." Zhou Zumo snorted coldly, "I've seen that there are still more than a dozen jugs of good wine in the bilge, and it's expected to arrive in China in two days. At that time, we used an excuse to celebrate our return Invite that boy surnamed Lu to drink and make him drunk. Of course, it’s best to capture him alive. If there is resistance, everyone will do it together and finish him off.”

Hearing these words, Lu Jian felt as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and he couldn't get over it for a while.When the cabin was silent, Luo Xiaosan said hesitantly: "Master Zhou, he saved our lives twice, by doing this, he will repay his kindness."

Zhou Zumo said: "It is true that he saved us, but it is also true that he colluded with the remnants of Dongdao. The friends of Dongdao are the enemies of our Tianbu. How can we treat the enemy softly? It is for the sake of saving lives, even if he is not killed. It is also necessary to cut off the veins in the limbs and destroy his martial arts."

"Okay." Everyone said one after another, "This is the best way." Zhou Zumo smiled and said, "So when you see Xiao Lu in the past two days, you all have to pretend to smile. This is called 'soldiers never tire of deceit'." "Master Zhou is still brilliant." Zhou Zumo was very proud, and laughed.

Gu Zhen turned around and grabbed Lu Jian, only to feel that his palms were cold, he couldn't help but sighed secretly, and said back to the cabin, "Lu Jian, most people in this world only recognize fame and wealth and are indifferent to feelings. It's only for self-interest, at this time, I just want to offset the crime of losing the blunderbuss, and it's no surprise to repay the favor." But seeing that Lu Jian was still in a daze, he thought that the biggest problem with this person was that he thought too well of people's hearts, and he would definitely suffer a lot in the future. deficit.

In the next two days, Lu gradually lost his spirits, and every time he saw the smiling faces of the sea guests, his heart felt like a knife stabbed in his heart.At noon that day, when I saw the outline of the mainland, Luo Xiaosan and two sea travelers came to invite me. Luo Xiaosan smiled falsely and said, "Xiao Lu, I will go to Zhongtu today, and I will land in Haining in the evening. Master Zhou said that this time I will return alive." Guo, thanks to Xiao Lu's help, I want to drink two bowls with you to express my gratitude."

Lu Jian saw him smiling all over his face, and his heart became more and more bitter. Just as he was about to refuse, he suddenly heard someone laughing, "This wine should be drunk, but I have to count it as a share." Float into the cabin.He has been in prison for a long time, he has not seen the sun, his skin is as white as jade, and he has been eating and drinking for the past few days, and he is gradually becoming fuller, especially looking like a tree facing the wind, handsome and extraordinary.

Before Luo Xiaosan could open his mouth, Gu Zhen smiled again: "Brother Luo, if you came to the Prison Island in the East China Sea, you will have no credit or hard work. Why do you only thank Lu Jian but not me? If you are so ungrateful, wouldn't it be a supercilious look?" A wolf?" His words hit Luo Xiaosan's heart disease, Luo Xiaosan's skin was hot, and he didn't know how to answer.

Gu Zhen pulled Lu Jian and said with a smile, "Let's go drink." Ignoring Luo Xiaosan, he went straight to Zhou Zumo's cabin.

Zhou Zumo was preparing a banquet, when he saw the two of them coming together, he was startled slightly.Gu Zhen smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, Mr. Gu is just in time for a meeting, so he also came to bother you for a couple of drinks." Da Ma Jindao sat down, turned the guest into the main, lifted the wine jar, filled the wine bowls on the table one by one, and said with a smile, "Come on. Come here, make three bowls first, and then talk about friendship, if you don't drink, it will be my grandson." After saying that, let's make a bowl first.

What he said was vicious, all the Haikes had to drink just because they were not grandsons, after drinking three bowls, their faces were all blushing.Gu Zhen's expression remained the same, and he filled everyone's bowls again, and said with a smile: "Everyone has worked together in the past few days, and it has been very hard. Boss Zhou has worked hard, just like what is said in that poem? By the way, 'Bo Zhong When I saw Yi Lu in a short time, the commander would definitely lose Xiao Cao', if I didn't drink this bowl, I would look down on Boss Zhou."

Whoever dares to bear this reputation among Haike has no choice but to drink.Zhou Zumo was anxious, and was planning to persuade Lu Jian to drink more bowls. Unexpectedly, Gu Zhen put the bowl away, his face showed a drunk and confused look, and suddenly shouted: "Drink, drink, if you don't drink, you will be my grandson... "While speaking, he raised the bench, facing the row of wine jars, raised the stool with his hands and dropped it, smashing most of the wine jars.Zhou Zumo was startled and angry, and said sharply, "You... what are you doing?"

Gu Zhen stared drunkenly, and shouted aggressively: "Are you asking me? Lao Tzu is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and Tota Heavenly King. I have come to destroy you and others under the imperial decree of the Jade Emperor." He raised the bench and made a gesture to smash it.Zhou Zumo ran away in shock, but Gu Zhen turned the bench and knocked the rest of the wine jar to pieces.

The wine jar was shattered, the ground was filled with alcohol, Zhou Zumo's poisonous plan failed, his heart ached, he stumbled angrily and said, "This guy is crazy, why don't you take him down?" Lu Jian knew the reason, got up and sighed, "He's just drunk. I'm drunk and crazy, I'll help him go back." After that, he went to grab Gu Zhen's arm, but Gu Zhen broke away from him, staring straight at him and said, "I am Zhuge Kongming, let's see how I perform on stage, borrowing the east wind to blow the banner, Burn down the millions of soldiers in the Cao camp." While talking and dancing, for some reason, he suddenly shook out a fire pocket from his sleeve, ignited it in a flash, and threw it on the ground with a slap.The alcoholic wine on the ground ignited when it met the fire, and the flames burst into flames for a while.

All the sea guests were terrified and shouted to put out the fire, but unexpectedly the fire was not extinguished, Gu Zhen threw two more fire zippers, the fire became more and more fierce, and it was uncontrollable.After Gu Zhen threw the fire bag, taking advantage of the confusion, he pulled Lu Jian to turn around and get out of the cabin. He saw that there were several barrels of gunpowder next to the artillery, and threw a fire bag over. The two ran away, only to hear a "boom" behind them. A hole was blasted.All of a sudden, all the Haike fought the fire in the east, and Gu Zhen set fire in the west, and the whole battleship was engulfed in thick smoke and flames.

Gu Zhen laughed loudly, and rushed to the deck with Lu Jian, grabbed a lifeboat, threw it into the sea, and jumped on it.

Lu Jian looked at the skyrocketing fireworks on the ship, frowned and said, "Gu Zhen, are you setting the fire too hard?" Gu Zhen laughed and said, "There is a way that three cups lead to the Dao, and one fight is natural. People drink When you're drunk, no matter what you do, it's natural." Lu Jian said, "How can there be such a fallacy?"

The two rowed the boat several miles away, and suddenly saw those sea passengers stumbling, rushing to the deck one after another, snatching the lifesaving boat and fleeing for their lives.Not long after, a muffled sound like thunder was heard inside the battleship, and billowing air waves broke out of the ship. The huge battleship was torn apart and turned into a pile of iron and wood debris.It turned out that the fire spread to the cabin where the gunpowder was stored, detonated the gunpowder, and blew the battleship to pieces.Although all the sea guests escaped for their lives, they couldn't help being ashamed and extremely embarrassed.

Gu Zhen smiled and said, "Lu Jian, I was looking at your face, otherwise, I would have set fire to the boat last night. These bastards are still asleep, and they either fed fish and shrimp, or became roast goose."

Not long after, the two abandoned the boat and landed. Lu Jian looked back at the group of sea travelers, fell silent for a while, and sighed, "I don't want to see them again." Gu Zhen rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Lu Jian, what do you want from now on? Plan?" Lu Jian said: "I want to go back to my hometown to visit my grandfather first, and then send Master Yu Monk's relic to Tianzhu Mountain for rest."

Gu Zhen said: "Tianzhu Mountain is beautiful, the ancestral court of Zen, I also want to visit it, but unfortunately it is still not convenient. Now I have a few important things to go to Nanjing, why don't you finish things with me first, I will I will accompany you to visit relatives and play again."

Lu Jian thought that this place is located in Zhejiang, but his hometown is at the border of Sulu, so he must pass through to go to Nanjing, so he readily agreed.

The discussion was settled, and Lu Jian was about to leave urgently, but Gu Zhen waved his hands and said with a smile: "No hurry, Haining City is not far away, let's go play the autumn wind first, and earn some money."
