Chapter 693

The mighty fleet sailed downstream. In order to bypass the area controlled by Cairo Tu, the team from Chang'an City first crossed Luoshui, then crossed Mangdang Mountain, from huangniu River to the East, and then sailed downstream through Luoshui. This is nearly a thousand miles around than taking the Yangtze River Ferry directly, but it is inevitable to take more roads to reach Yongzhou safely.

Although luotu was defeated, he still had more than 400000 troops. Even if the armored army from Chang'an city is no more elite, it is only a few thousand people.

Originally, according to the meaning of attacking the tiger, it was just to rush over directly, but Tan Qingge, an imperial envoy, strongly opposed it. After all, there are nearly 100 people in this team, and most of them are women. I don't know whether the peace talk Qingge is more congenial or the tiger also has a heart of pity for jade. Finally, I agreed to talk Qingge's request and took a detour.

You know, for the tiger, detour is something he has never been willing to do in the past.

Leaning against the side of the ship, Tan Qingge looked back at the gloomy armored soldiers on the ship. Although they are still cold and can't be close, they still have an uncomfortable killing intention, but Tan Qingge can see that these armored soldiers don't seem to be used to taking a boat.

These burly soldiers held tightly what they could hold around them, as if they were afraid that if they gave up, they would fall into the river.

Tan Qingge couldn't help laughing and said that there is no absolutely powerful person in the world. These armored soldiers are invincible on the battlefield, and no one is their opponent. At the beginning, they killed Luo Yao's millions of troops, which is enough to show that they can afford to be invincible on land.

But on the rickety ship, they were very nervous one by one.

"How long will it take to get off the ship?"

The tiger is also ugly. He seems to be very uncomfortable with this kind of life floating on the water. He was originally a cold and arrogant man. At this time, his face was a little pitiful.

"Almost"

Tan Qingge pointed to a big city by the river and said, "that's Xinyang City. We've entered the ground of Huangyang road. We can go down the river quickly. If there's no accident, we can enter Pingshang road in about ten days. After landing, we can go to Yongzhou for another day and a half, two days at the latest."

The tiger's face obviously changed. He held the side of the boat and sighed: "it's still ten days... The most disgusting thing in my life is to take a boat. If you didn't say it would be faster by water, I wouldn't come on board."

"How can a general who rushes and kills among thousands of troops be afraid of water?"

Tan Qingge made fun of him.

"What is it to be afraid of water? Who doesn't have something to be afraid of? I'm also afraid of mice!"

Fluttering tiger complained, sat down along the side of the ship and took a deep breath. On the big ship, it seemed that he would feel more secure only if he sat down and leaned against something.

"What about you? Is there anything you're afraid of?"

He asked.

Tan Qingge thought about it very seriously, and then replied very seriously: "afraid of death."

"Alas..."

Puhu didn't know why. He sighed and kept silent for a long time before slowly saying, "I thought the thing I was most afraid of was death, but later I found that death was not as terrible as I thought. After more experience, you will find that you don't have to care about many things you fear."

"Speak as if you were dead."

Tan Qingge said with a smile.

"You just died!"

The tiger gave him a white look: "It's nice to have a chat with you... I haven't had any friends since I was a child. Only the general loves me and protects me. I'm used to following him and doing things according to his orders. I can do whatever he asks me to do, but this is the first time I've left him for so long, so I'm in a hurry to finish my work and go back. So... I promise you to go south by boat, but I'm still young Yes, it's only when you step on the ground. "

"Why don't you have friends?"

Tan Qingge asked.

"Because..."

This time it was the tiger's turn to think seriously, and then he laughed at himself: "am I ugly?"

Tan Qingge looked at him carefully, then nodded: "it's ugly."

The tiger couldn't help laughing: "it's strange. If others said I was ugly, I would have pulled it over and torn it. But you said I was ugly, why didn't I want to kill your heart?"

"Because I'm honest."

Tan Qingge said, "you say you're ugly. I've seen it carefully. You're really not beautiful. People say you're ugly. You want to kill them because they're laughing at you. I don't mean to laugh when I say you're ugly."

Obviously, it's someone else's favorite word, but he talks endlessly.

But the tiger seemed really not angry: "you can't chat!"

"Me?"

Tan Qingge was silent for a long time and said, "I don't have any friends..."

Fluttering tiger was slightly stunned and asked curiously, "why don't you have friends?"

"Because..."

Tan Qingge smiled: "am I handsome?"

The tiger spat, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Tan Qingge sighed and said: "When I was in the martial arts academy, I spent most of my time cooking for the cook, and then went to the library to deliver peanuts to the old man. The rest of the time was either sleeping or in a daze in the back mountain. I can't say that I saw few people. The students of the martial arts academy came to dinner every day, but I just didn't like them. I said they had a disgusting smell. I asked later Cook, why? The Cook said, "because you are poor, they are rich, because you are low and they are high."

He turned his head and looked at the tiger: "I thought it over carefully. It seems so."

"Is this jealousy?"

Asked the tiger.

Tan Qingge said with a smile, "you can use a more beautiful word, for example, I am lofty."

Puhu laughed and asked seriously, "can you make friends with me?"

Tan Qingge was stunned, then shook his head: "who knows... Maybe in the future, you and I will really become friends."

This is actually a refusal, but the tiger seems very happy: "what is a friend?"

Tan Qingge doesn't know. He also asked the cook. The cook told him that a friend is a guy who accompanies you when you are happy. When you cry, he doesn't necessarily accompany you to cry, but he will beat up those who cry angrily. When you are proud, he may stay away from you. He will live his life and you will live your life. When you are frustrated, he will come over and pat you on the shoulder Arm, smile at you and say, do you want to see who pees farther?

Tan Qingge doesn't know why the cook's definition of friends is so vulgar, but he vaguely feels that friends should be like this.

So he said the cook's words once and for all.

The tiger thought for a while. It seemed that these words were difficult for him to understand. But he decided to try. He stood up, untied his pants and pointed out the side of the ship: "do you want to see who pees farther?"

Tan Qingge was stunned, then nodded: "OK... But you can't use internal strength!"

The tiger Pooh: "I'm not going to kill!"

"You pissed and killed people?"

"Not really... But you can try later..."

……

……

The ship passed Pingshang Road on the third day to the south. Beihui road is the shortest of the four roads in the southwest, and it can enter Nanhui Road in less than two days. However, the scenery of Luoshui in beihui road is the most beautiful, and the coastal scenery is refreshing. There are magnificent mountains and gentle water villages in the south of the Yangtze River.

Talking about Qingge, I am infatuated with watching the scenery on both sides of the Strait standing in the bow of the boat every day.

The tiger seemed to have no interest in these things, but he spent most of his time standing in the bow with Tan Qingge. The two men looked very different. One was tall and handsome, the other was short and strong, and the other was ugly. At first, the people on the big ship thought that the contrast between the two men was too strong. Later, they suddenly felt that the two men were standing there, It's like the scenery on both sides of Luoshui river.

There are high mountains and dangerous peaks, as well as nursery flowers.

It's a good match.

When Pu Hu saw Tan Qingge open his mouth several times and close it, he couldn't help asking curiously, "what do you want?"

Tan Qingge blushed and smiled: "looking all the way, the beauty on both sides of the river makes people want to sigh. No wonder those poets like to travel far away. The beautiful scenery really makes people feel comfortable. I also want to say something, but I've been thinking for a long time... There's no word in my stomach."

"You really ruined this scholar robe."

The tiger looked at him contemptuously and said, "I can say a hundred poems about the scenery. Do you believe it?"

"Don't believe it"

"Then I won't say."

Puhu hehe smiled and seemed to think of something: "when I was reading, I always ran out impatiently, either to go to the birds or to dig the ant nest. Later, the general beat me up for this, and I was willing to bite the bullet to recite the words of the ancients. But what's the use of reciting these things?"

He stretched out and said: "Of course, men have to cross the battlefield. In my opinion, it's better to write a poem than to kill one person. It's nothing if you can't write poetry. It's enough to kill people... I forgot, and you can't kill people. But later, I had nothing to do for a long time, so I could only read books. I formed the habit of reading books. So wherever I went, I had to bring a book for recreation."

Tan Qingge looked down at the long sword hanging on his waist like a stream of autumn water, sighed and said, "literature can't become a poem in seven steps, martial arts can't kill in ten steps... What else can I do?"

"Alive"

Fluttering tiger naturally said, "to live is to become big... This is what the general said."

"To live is to grow up?"

Tan Qingge repeated it, if you have some enlightenment.

He was about to speak when he saw that the tiger's face suddenly changed. The smile when he talked easily before suddenly disappeared, and the murderous intention that had not appeared in his eyes for many days came out uncontrollably.

"The general said that some clowns would appear on the road... Sure enough!"

After saying this, suddenly a big fish jumped out of the water and went straight to talk about Qingge!

Tan Qingge looks at the tiger and looks silly. It seems that she doesn't feel the danger behind her. When he saw the tiger take off a sledgehammer from his waist, he couldn't help shouting. But the tiger didn't want to do anything to him. He pulled him apart and threw the sledgehammer out!

Where is the big fish that jumps in the water.

It's a person.

……

……

Not only this person, there are countless dark shadows in the water. It looks like many big fish are swimming in the water. But these big fish are not kind. Some jump out of the water and go straight to the big ship, while others are close to the big ship. They want to chisel the big ship through the bottom of the water!

The tiger threw out a hammer, and the man in mid air chopped down with both hands holding the knife power. The knife cut out a majestic knife Qi and cut it on the sledgehammer with a positive sound.

But the sharp knife spirit didn't make any sense at all. The sledgehammer flew straight and slammed into the assassin's chest, directly smashed half of the assassin's body, and then consciously circled in mid air and flew back. The mutilated body fell down and dyed a piece of river water red.

The shadows are getting denser and denser, and there are more and more people.

Puhu smiled coldly and squeezed out a few words from his teeth.

"Talk about Qingge. If you can't write poetry, learn how to kill happily... I'll teach you!"
