Chapter 86

However, before these bold water thieves knew what was going on on board, they heard several screams.

There were twenty water thieves, five sailors and eight people who climbed into the ship first. Now only seven people are left on the ship.

After hearing the scream, these people dare not climb onto the merchant ship again.

The ship is not haunted, so there must be Wulin experts on it. So the people on the ship don't care about their companions and run away with the oars.

However, a throwing knife came from behind, and three or four were solved by swishing. They were all killed by the water thieves' knives.

The remaining water thieves rowed away.

Calm returned to the river, the lanterns on the merchant ship lit up again, and Xiao Baoshan went to the cabin to inform Wen Lei and the boatman.

Wen Lei was so frightened that he shrank in the corner and trembled. The boatman also trembled badly. Trembling, he asked Xiao Baoshan, "water... Where's the water thief?"

Xiao Baoshan said, "it's solved!"

Including the body of the water thief, he threw it into the river.

The river is very big. Many corpses are washed ashore every year. Because they are washed ashore from the upstream to the downstream, they are generally nameless corpses, and their families can't find anyone. The government burned them.

When Wen Lei and the boatman heard that the water thief had been solved, they climbed out trembling.

Wen Lei also suspected the tunnel: "I just heard a few screams. How many water thieves are there?"

"It's too dark to see clearly."

Xiao Baoshan replied that Wen Lei dared not come out again. He was worried that there were water thieves nearby.

At the same time, he was full of vigilance against xiaobaoshan and worried that xiaobaoshan was with the water thieves.

Xiao Baoshan didn't explain. He brought some wine and returned to the deck again.

The river is windy at night, so you have to warm yourself up with wine.

The boatman was hired. Naturally, he couldn't hide like Wen Lei. He had to row and was frightened.

It was not until dawn that Wen Lei dared to come out.

On the deck, Xiao Baoshan drank alone by the pole. His back was tall and straight. Against the magnificent river behind him, he looked like a lone hero.

Wen Lei thought: I'm afraid I'm looking for the right person. I don't have to worry about thieves all the way.

Another day later, when he arrived at Fusheng wharf, Wen Lei took people to unload the goods, gave xiaobaoshan eight liang of silver, and contacted xiaobaoshan with a returning merchant ship. They said goodbye.

Xiao Baoshan talked little from beginning to end. After saying goodbye, he got on another merchant ship and disappeared into the cabin.

Standing on the dock, Wen Lei thought: next time, I'd better find this xiaobaoshan to follow the boat.

……

Three days later, xiaobaoshan returned to the wharf of Qinghe County.

When the thin monkey saw him coming back, he hurried to inform Xing San: "boss, Xiao Baoshan has come back alive!"

"Just come back alive. I knew he would be fine." Xing San must be a tunnel.

These two days, many people on the dock are discussing the water thieves in Fujian Province. They also say that they see several bodies on the water. They don't know whether they are the water thieves or the shippers.

Anyway, it's not a good thing.

The thin monkey was worried about xiaobaoshan.

Although Xiao Baoshan was not his relative, he was sent from Qinghe wharf. An accident would affect the wharf. Besides, Xiao Baoshan was in a hurry and I'm afraid he didn't inform his family. It would be bad if his family came to the wharf to make trouble.

Now xiaobaoshan has finally returned, and the thin monkey is very excited.

"Boss, if xiaobaoshan really has some skills, do you think he did it for the bodies in the river boundary of Fujian Province?" Asked the thin monkey.

Xing San immediately stopped the thin monkey with his eyes: "don't talk nonsense. We're just with the ship and won't kill."

"Yes, yes, we don't do these things."

While they were talking, Xiao Baoshan came in.

Xing San changed his face and enthusiastically patted Xiao Baoshan on the shoulder: "brother Baoshan, you are back. We are all worried about you."

"It bothers you." Xiao Baoshan was faint, and then took out four Liang silver from his arms: "eight Liang silver in total. Here are four Liang silver for you."

"Well, it's hard for you." Xing San patted Xiao Baoshan on the shoulder again. He took the money for granted.

Xiao Baoshan said, "I've been away from home for many days. Please take a few days off and go back to see my family."

"Yes, of course. Besides, I'm very tired with the boat. I eat, drink and Lazar on the boat. I have to adapt to life on land. Then go back and see your family. Don't you have a little lady? I seem to have seen it once last time."

Xiao Baoshan didn't greet Xing San either. He just turned around and left the house at the dock.

……

Xiao Baoshan said he missed his family, but what worried him most in the county was only Ye Xiaoxian's food.

These days, he eats and lives on the boat. He eats dry food, dry steamed bread and dried beef slices. He doesn't even eat hot. What he thinks most is Ye Xiaoxian's sweet and sour ribs, boiled fish, or sour and spicy crystal chicken feet.

On his way to the restaurant, he passed a jewelry stall and saw a green pearl hairpin in front of the stall. He thought it was very in line with Ye Xiaoxian's temperament, so he bought it.

However, when he held the hairpin in his arms, he suddenly thought of another thing: what should he say if Li Hongmei and Xiao Baozhu asked?

Just giving it to Ye Xiaoxian shows that he has only Ye Xiaoxian in his heart now.

Despite the fact, you can't be too partial.

After thinking about it, he bought another horn comb and a bead chain. Then he went back to the restaurant.

……

Xiao Baoshan came in from the backyard and went directly to the kitchen.

Ye Xiaoxian was cooking in the kitchen. When she flipped the spatula, she felt a tall man coming in. She quickly turned around.

"Baoshan!" Ye Xiaoxian exclaimed in surprise.

It's been almost a month. Xiaobaoshan is getting thinner and darker.

However, because his facial features are good and his aura is still there, it not only does not affect his image, but adds a trace of heroism to him.

Xiao Baoshan went to Ye Xiaoxian and looked at the big iron pot in front of him. What was made in the iron pot was the sweet and sour ribs he was thinking about.

"Baoshan, do you want to eat?" Ye Xiaoxian saw it.

Xiao Baoshan nodded, "is it convenient?"

"Convenient, of course. I can give you this one first, and I can make another one for the guests." Ye Xiaoxian said.

I haven't seen her for a month. Why do you think Xiao Baoshan is like a child and wants to eat with her?

But such xiaobaoshan is also very cute.

Xiao Baoshan said, "thank you."

"You're welcome. It's hard for you to come back. There's heavy smoke in the kitchen. Go out to the lobby and ask your mother to arrange a table for you." Ye Xiaoxian said.

Xiao Baoshan stood still.

"What's the matter?" Ye Xiaoxian asked, "isn't it enough to eat?"

"Boiled fish, anything else?" Xiao Baoshan thinks he can eat a cow now.

"OK, you go and sit first. I'll make it for you later." Ye Xiaoxian also saw that xiaobaoshan was very tired.

Xiaobaoshan is still motionless.

After a while, he took out the bead hairpin from his arms and handed it to Ye Xiaoxian: "leaf, this is for you."
