Chapter 230: A Glimmer of Life As soon as the boatman turned around and rowed away, the Vietnamese troops on the shore made a noise, and the brigade commander scolded viciously: "Shoot them to death, let them go."
Boss Shi reluctantly rowed the raft across the middle of the river, and on the bank on the right was a barren meadow, and then behind was a low mountain.
Shi Boss said anxiously while holding the bamboo raft: "When they arrive at Xilukou, they only need to shout an order, they can obediently send people to the boat for their use, then we will be difficult to get out, the water in front of us is slowing down, I sailed the raft into the water and grass, please take off the king's coat, I use water and grass as a disguise, the king will land here to avoid the mountains and forests, how to lead them away with a dummy, wait for the West Lukou, with my water surname, you can escape, at that time unless they undress and examine the injuries one by one, otherwise they can't find me at all."
It's just that the king doesn't have a ship, so it's still difficult to get out of here. ” Qingji looked at the mountain, saying that it was a mountain, but it was just a few hills, and the dense forests could hide people, but if someone searched the mountain, there was nowhere to escape.
And with his current situation, if he went up to this barren mountain, before he could make a bamboo raft, the Vietnamese army who knew that he was fooled would search all the way.
Qingji couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It's useless, it's just to avoid a moment or three."
If you want to escape, you will find a place with a dense flow of people, a place with a large number of land and water vessels, in which case you may have an opportunity to leave before the order to blockade is heard. ” The Vietnamese army chased after them along the riverbank, shouting and screaming, and sometimes arrows were fired, but because the riverbank was wide and the wind was headwind, it was difficult to hurt them.
Shi Lao Avenue: "Xilukou Wharf is the most prosperous place nearby, near Xilu City, there are a lot of cars, horses, boats and boats, there are always some merchants from the south to the north, it is easy to hide their identity, but they are closely behind, as soon as we land, they will immediately find the boat across the river to chase, when we are on land, it is even more tied." ” "Daddy, or not."
The little light girl rolled her eyes and said, "I will take the king to escape from the water and find a secluded place to land, so that I may be able to get rid of them." ” "You" Boss Shi shook his head again and again when he heard this: "Don't mess around, you little child, what can you do?"
Xiaoguang straightened his small chest and said unconvinced: "I have been to this place in Xilukou many times with my father, I won't get lost, as long as I send the king away, I will go to Uncle Hua's house to hide first." ” Qingji bowed his head and said: "It is indeed safer for the three of them to be separated in this way." ” Boss Shi said helplessly: "Don't listen to children's nonsense, the king's injuries have not healed, how to swim in the water, and there are always many people on the dock on the shore, and you can't escape in front of them, so you have to dive farther away, I don't know the surname of Wang Shui, but according to your current injury, it can't be done."
Besides, she is a small child, and it is a problem for her to go into the water by herself, where can she bring others, if I take the king, I can't lead them away, and the king still can't get out."
Qingji glanced at Miss Xiaoguang and said to Shi Laodao: "No problem, I believe she can take me out of the dock." ” Boss Shi was surprised and said, "The king believes in her" "Believe" Qingji nodded: "Brother Shi, don't underestimate Xiaoguang, although she is still a child, she has a good surname, and it will definitely not be a problem to take me away." ” "How is it possible" Boss Shi looked at his daughter in surprise, as if he didn't know her, and Xiaoguang lowered his head weakly.
Qingji smiled and said, "It's true, she's the best kid I've ever seen with the surname Shui." ” "Just do as she says."
Qingji thought for a while and said: "In this way, the raft rowed into the water and grass, and then I took off my coat and tied a straw man to deceive the pursuers, and Brother Shi led them away."
Brother Shi should not stop in Xilukou, but sail into the middle waterway in front of them, Xilukou is a three-way waterway, even if they get a boat from the waterway on their side, they have to go around to the middle waterway to catch up, this time the distance is widened, Brother Shi will lead them as far away as possible, and then they can escape from the water, remember to pay attention to their own safety.
As for Xiaoguang, please send me ashore, as long as you board the dock, you will immediately go to Uncle Hua's house and hide.
I'm alone, so it's easier to move. ” "Can you rely on Xiaoguang, this kid, can you really escape?"
said Boss Shi worriedly.
Qingji said calmly: "If you do this, you will die for a lifetime."
If you don't, you're dead.
Do your best and let God do your best."
"My lord, do we still have to go forward, this is the mixed area of the people of Wu and Yue, and further on, once we arrive at the Xilu Wharf, it can be regarded as an area completely controlled by the Yue Kingdom, and it may be very difficult for us to break through, besides, even if the king really drifts into the Yue country, I am afraid that he will not go back to the heart of the Yue country."
"Well" Yingtao is a surname who is more than calm in the event of a major event, before he entered the Yue Kingdom, he was anxious, desperate, and finally really killed in, but calmed down: "The Yue people will not be ignorant of our movements, I am afraid that now we are also mobilizing troops to force us, we will no longer go into the depths, go sideways, do not attack the city all the way, do not stay too long, as long as it causes enough chaos nearby." ” As soon as Ying Tao finished giving the order, a partial general hurriedly rushed over, and said breathlessly: "General, I got the news from the Yue captives, the king is really in the Yue country, and they just chased down." ” "What" Ying Tao jumped over with an arrow, grabbed him and said, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?"
Yingtao's people are very urgent, and they also know that the most important thing is not to be pinned down by the enemy, so as not to be surrounded by the Vietnamese army, so they will leave as soon as the enemy army is touched, just to cause chaos and create opportunities for Qingji, and they don't care about the results of victory or defeat.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived here, the Vietnamese army in charge of defense here was the one led by the temporary brigade commander Zuo Biao.
The main general is not there, Zuo Biao's prestige is insufficient, and the other four pawn commanders are resentful of him, and he is dissatisfied with the greed of the brigade commander, and the four pawn commanders have different intentions.
Since this Vietnamese army is so vulnerable, Ying Tao also honestly and unceremoniously let go of the big fight, not wanting to get the news of the king by mistake.
As soon as he found out what had happened, Yingtao did not hesitate anymore, and immediately gathered people and horses and chased down the river.
In order to avoid arrows, the bamboo raft carrying Qingji burrowed into the aquatic grass area.
The water flow there is shallow, and the clumps of lush aquatic weeds are more than one person high above the water, and the bamboo rafts appear and disappear on the water, and the pursuers are staring at their positions to prevent them from escaping.
As soon as Zhu Fafu appeared, another rain of arrows shot over, only to see Qingji oops, and then turned over and fell into the water.
The commander of the Vietnamese army was nervous: "Did you shoot it?"
He was excited and nervous, holding a bow and arrows and staring at the raft, only to see Boss Shi abandon the penny, lying on the bamboo and hurriedly dragging Qingji up again.
It seemed that Qingji had been hit by an arrow, lying on the raft with his dying breath, Boss Shi leaned over and said something to him, and hurriedly picked up the penny and rowed forward.
"Keep firing arrows, unleash arrows, shoot them," the Vietnamese brigade commander shouted wildly.
It is better to be able to catch a living Qingji, but Qingji is famous, although the tiger has fallen in Pingyang at this moment, under the fame, these people are still very afraid of him, as long as they can catch a dead Qingji, for them, it is a great achievement.
"It's almost there" Qingji hung in the water, grabbed the bamboo raft, only exposed his head, and whispered through the bamboo chair and miscellaneous things in the middle of the bamboo raft.
His gaze was too low to see in the distance.
Boss Shi said in a low voice: "It's almost over, when we arrive at Sanlukou, the villain doesn't stop, but quickly passes through with the dummy, leading them to chase the boat."
Little Light" "Well, don't worry, daddy", Xiaoguang pretended to be afraid and shrunk beside the bamboo chair, and had quietly tied his sleeves and trouser legs with hemp rope.
Leaving such an important matter to his young daughter to do, Boss Shi was really uneasy, but he had nothing else to do at the moment, just nodded and sighed softly.
Another arrow came, Xiaoguang screamed "wow", his body was crooked, and he fell into the water with a "porphyr".
"Daughter" Boss Shi screamed sadly, and the commander of the Vietnamese army on the shore laughed wildly: "Boatman, send him over quickly, otherwise, your father and daughter will die today, don't be blindly confused." ” Boss Shi raised his voice and shouted: "Entrusted by people, loyal to people, although I am poor and lowly people, don't think of me as treacherous" said vigorously again, and turned back to Qingji and Xiaoguang who were sticking to the raft.
Xiaoguang understood, nodded, and said close to Qingji's ear: "Don't be afraid, the king is not afraid, Xiaoguang dragged you away from the bottom of the water, relax your body, don't struggle, take a deep breath first." ” Qingji practiced in the Taihu Lake Sailor Division, practiced more of the kung fu on the surface of the boat, although the water surname is good, but he is not good at fishing and catching shrimp only used diving kung fu, but he has seen Xiaoguang swim like a good water surname, but she is full of trust, immediately took a deep breath according to the words, Xiaoguang's body shrank, his bare feet against the side of the raft, one hand held his arm, and whispered: "Let go" Then she kicked hard with both feet, and her body dived into the water, and Qingji, who let go of the bamboo raft, was taken by her and dived under the water.
Diving into the water in a hurry, Qingji immediately felt a sense of oppression, he closed his eyes hard, relaxed his body and let Xiaoguang drag forward, just a moment's effort, but in his senses, it seemed like ten minutes long, Qingji's chest was almost bursting, the stinging pain in his waist and abdomen became more and more unbearable, he just wanted to breathe, but he had to endure it forcibly.

Suddenly, he felt Xiaoguang take his hand and lift it up, Qingji immediately pressed the water, tilted his head up, and drilled out of the water with a "bang", and he immediately gasped for fresh air.
Next to him was a clump of aquatic weeds, and in front of the right, I could already see the pier and the fence and houses behind the pier, and some people were busy on the pier.
On the left side, Shi Lao Da is rowing forward with bamboo felling, and the Vietnamese soldiers on the left bank are shouting, and some are looking around for boats, requisitioning small boats moored on the shore, the noisy sound attracts the attention of the people on the dock, and the people who hear the sound are stretching their necks to look at the opposite side, and many people are gathering on the pier.
Boss Shi didn't dare to look back, for fear that someone would notice Qingji and his daughter's actions, and at the same time worried that someone would recognize his identity, he lowered the bamboo hat, and just rowed the bamboo raft forward, sailing towards the middle of the three rivers.
"King, if you go to the dock from here, you will definitely be seen.
You see, there is a row of warehouses at the back, there is only a fence near the water, and few adults go there, and my friends and I hid there when we were hiding.
We're going from here to there, and we're not going to show our heads on the water again, so you'll have to hold back. ” Xiaoguang wiped the river water on his face, and the two little feet were treading water in circles under the water, and explained to Qingji seriously, she saw Qingji's face red, knowing that he didn't know how to hold his breath in the water, and explained to him briefly, and then made a gesture and said, "Come" After saying that, he plunged into the water, Qingji then disappeared, Xiaoguang took his hand, swung his legs and one arm hard, and rowed hard, Qingji calmed down, and tried his best to swim, sneaking with her.
After walking for a while, Qingji quietly opened his eyes, the river water was clear, and the petite body of the little light girl was swimming hard at her side, her long hair fluttering, swaying in the water like aquatic plants.
From time to time, she turned her head to see how she was doing, and saw that he opened his eyes, and the little girl gave him an encouraging smile, and with a slight air cannon at the corner of her mouth, she raised her hand and pointed forward, indicating that the distance was not too far, and then turned her head and continued to swim forward.
Gradually, Qingji's breath was not enough, and as soon as the feeling of tightness in his chest came up, it seemed like it was about to explode, making him want to surface desperately to take a breath.
But at this moment, it is close to the dock, once they show their heads, it is inevitable that they will be discovered, and if someone stares at the water surface intentionally, they will inevitably have to see some figures, where can they float.
Qingji tried his best to endure it, the feeling of tightness in his chest became stronger and stronger, and he almost wanted to open his mouth to breathe desperately, even if it was a mouthful of deadly river water that was inhaled.
Xiaoguang felt that Qingji's big hand holding her was getting stronger and stronger, and it was already painful to hold her palm, she turned her head in surprise, only to see Qingji's eyes wide, and the swing of his body was getting weaker and weaker, and he was almost unable to swim.
Xiaoguang made a few gestures anxiously, Qingji no longer had the energy to analyze its meaning, he shook his head hurriedly, pointed to his chest, and suddenly opened his mouth and exhaled the remaining breath in his mouth, a string of bubbles gurgled up, this breath was exhausted, he was about to involuntarily suck a mouthful of river water, if he didn't float to the surface to breathe, he would have drowned in the water.
Seeing this, Xiaoguang was in a hurry, she didn't think about it in a hurry, kicked her feet, leaned over, and suddenly grabbed Qingji's neck and blocked her small mouth from Qingji's mouth.
Because he was afraid that he would drown, he pinched his nose with one hand.
Crossing into Qingji's mouth in one breath, Qingji's eyes widened in shock, the two pairs of eyes were so close, looking at Qingji dizzy, he couldn't see anything in front of him except for the pair of eyes that were as clear as water.
Suddenly, the face left, Xiaoguang gestured to him urgently, took his hand, turned his head forward, and tried his best to swing his waist and hips and legs to swim forward, Qing Jiyuan thought she would be ashamed, but seeing her innocent eyes, she couldn't help but be secretly ashamed, and hurriedly cooperated to keep up.
Qingji's lung capacity was originally not low, but Xiaoguang helped him breathe a sigh of relief and barely managed to get to the back of the warehouse.
With a "whoosh", the two surfaced and gasped for breath.
"King, if you go up from here, you can go around the outside of the docks, but how do you?"
"Don't worry, the rest is my business, what do you do" "I'm still walking on the water, the back window of Uncle Hua's house is on the water of the river, I climb in through the back window, and no one will find out."
"Well, Xiaoguang, when I return to Wu Kingdom, I will definitely send someone to pick up your whole family, and I will repay your family for their kindness to me."
"I'm afraid" Xiaoguang lowered his eyes: "My family will move away when I go back, Uncle Wang, will you forget us?"
"No, never."
Xiaoguang smiled and gently pushed him: "Don't say it, you go quickly, I'm going too, uncle, remember my name, my name is Shi Yiguang." ” After Xiaoguang finished speaking, he turned around, jumped into the water like a small fish, and when he reappeared, he was already five or six feet away, leaned out of the water and beckoned to him, and then dived into the water again.
"Shi Yiguang" Qingji's eyes were about to fall out, when Xiaoguang came out of the water for the second time, he suddenly woke up, he screamed in his heart: "Yiguang, if I die, you must not move to a place called Ramie Village, if there is a person named Fan Li to go to the folk beauty pageant in the future, you must not go with him, and do not promise to go to Wu Guo" It's a pity that a thousand words can't be said at this time, he can only watch Xiaoguang reappear on the surface of the water, beckon to him from afar, and then dive into the water again and disappear.
"Shi Yiguang", Qingji was in a daze again, and then he realized that his own situation was critical at this time, Shi Yiguang was sent to Wu State, it should be seven or eight years later, as for Gou Jian's "flying birds, good bows hidden", after destroying Wu, Xi Shi Shenjiang died more than 20 years later.
As long as he didn't die, these things would not happen again, so he had to go ashore in silence, taking advantage of the fact that all the people on the pier were rushing to the river bank to watch the Vietnamese army chasing and killing a bamboo raft, and there was almost no chance of pedestrians in the dock to escape quietly To be continued:
