Chereads / Seven Samurai / Chapter 115 - Chapter 3

Chapter 115 - Chapter 3

The gentle collision is different from the general feeling of boating on the river. The sensitive swordsman barely opened one eyelid, and what he saw was the charming woman with the setting sun on her back, docking the boat to the shore and tying the boat cable. The corners of his eyebrows are rippled, his eyes are like water, and his body is like a flying phoenix. Especially the beauty mark on the lip, which tightly attracted the sword master's sight and thoughts.

Eyes widening, Jack jerked back. There was not much space on the boat, and the distance between the two of them was not far. The feeling of oppression given by the person who was almost two heads taller than him was extraordinary. The shaking almost knocked the two of them off the boat. After hurriedly holding on to both edges of the hull and stabilizing the boat, Jack breathed a sigh of relief.

The green-clad beauty in front of him also looked at him with a horrified expression. Jack's consciousness has fully recovered, with an indifferent expression. "What are you looking at? I just looked at you and was dumbfounded for a moment." This sentence made people feel really happy, but Jack just looked around and continued: "Really, it's not scary like this. You look so powerful. Did you grow up drinking dragon milk? It really makes people wonder if you have the blood of the giant family. What, is this Meilong Town? Why is it different from my impression? "

I saw the beauty in front of me with tears in her eyes and her hands clutching her knees tightly. Jack didn't say a few words, and he was greeted with a knife. "Don't pretend to be such a fool, I'm just telling the truth." With his five fingers like claws, he clasped his round face and pushed it away with all his strength. "You haven't told me where this is yet!"

He backed away somewhat frustrated, and the woman sat at the other end of the boat. He lowered his head and glanced at Jack, blushed slightly and whispered: "We haven't arrived at Meilong Town yet. Brother Jie said it's already dark, so we can rest here and set off early tomorrow."

Jack didn't say yes or no, he just put away the fishing rod, picked up the fishing basket, and headed towards the shore. The two brothers from the front were already waiting by the roadside with their hands down. As soon as Jack passed by, they followed him respectfully. The Cuishan woman who was still in the boat quickly tied the boat cable, picked up her baggage and followed her ashore.

The place connected to the ferry head is a small inn, with only a few shops selling daily necessities for passing passengers. As dusk approached, these shops all set up lanterns at their entrances. The most lively thing here is a three-story building, the Yuelai Inn, with three carriages parked underneath. You must know that there are many boats and few cars in Southeast. Carriages are basically a thing for the rich. Most people will not think about raising several horses or maintaining one car.

Jack and his party entered the inn, and there was constant laughter and fist-fighting. No one came to say hello. Several of the waiters were just looking after the three or four tables of familiar guests in the inn's inner hall, chatting and drinking with them, and asking for some rewards along the way. The group of people stood like this for a while, but Jack walked directly towards a quieter corner of the inn.

The shopkeeper who had just come out seemed to have seen something, and he quickly stepped forward with a smile to greet Jack and his party. "Are you four guests? Come in quickly. It's very windy outside."

After carefully looking at the warrior order Jie Liang wore on his belt, the shopkeeper called a waiter to come forward. "Is the guest looking for our Master Shida? The three masters are entertaining the guests in the shop. Do you need to make a small announcement?"

"No, forget it. We are just passing by. May I ask the store where this is? I wonder how far it is to Meilong Town?"

"This is under the Mingjian Villa. We are doing a small business of greeting guests." The shopkeeper gave a simple answer. He looked at the four guests who came to the door seriously, then turned around and asked, "I wonder if the guests are traveling by boat or by car?"

"We'll take two boats."

"Just sail down the Xianzi River, branch into the Meizi River, and then take the Longji Canal. It takes about half a day to reach the scene."

Nodding, Jie Liang took some copper coins from his pocket and handed them to the shopkeeper. "Well, come and help us prepare a table of food and drinks. We'll take care of the rest."

"Let's find a remote table to avoid the noise." Jack walked past everyone, and Jie Liang nodded and told the waiter to do the same. The group of four people sat at the table and relaxed their muscles and bones to eliminate the fatigue of the boat trip.

After sitting at the table, Jie Qi spoke first. He looked at the busy tables at the back. "Brother, Mingjian Villa is quite famous in the world. The third head of the family came out to greet him personally. I don't know where he came from." Jie Liang just glanced at him and replied: "I don't know."

After taking a closer look, there was actually a child about six or seven years old running around and having fun between the tables. Sometimes I knocked over the wine glass in someone's hand; sometimes I sneakily approached the table, suddenly grabbed the peanuts on the table and ran to the side, eating only a few and throwing them away. But everyone dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. They clenched their fists and gritted their teeth, and immediately put on forced smiles to coax the children. Jie Liang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, which family is this wild child? If I had dared to behave like this when I was a child, my elders would have sent me to walk outside for a whole day without even being allowed to eat, drink or relieve myself. Whoever helps beg for mercy will be in trouble.

The hot food and wine were served on the table soon, and everyone picked up pairs of chopsticks to pick up the dishes and try them out. Jack poured himself a full bowl of soju, looked at the steam and smelled the aroma, and prepared to drink it all in one gulp. Suddenly something was wrong in my mind, and the screams of children grew louder in my ears. When the shouting was about to get worse, he stood up suddenly but it was too late. The kid who was running rampant in the inn pounced on Jack, and the entire bowl of wine was eaten by Jack's tattered clothes without leaving any drop.

The man who smashed the wine bowl looked sideways at the kid beside him, and saw that the kid looked arrogant, not feeling that he had done anything wrong at all. The waiter in the store who saw it on the side quickly came forward to accompany him, cleaned up the broken bowl pieces, and gave Jack a new bowl.

"What's in here?" The child said in his childish voice while picking up Jack's fish basket and looking at it. He reached into it and took it out. He said "Oh!" and threw the bait inside to the ground. While saying: "What a dirty thing, it's so dirty!" He wiped it off Jack's clothes with one hand.

Before his muddy hand could even touch Jack's clothes, he was gently grabbed by the impatient man. Raising the child's hand, Jack shouted: "Whose child is it? Can you take a look?"

Several family members walked out of the busiest tables, trying to persuade the children to go back alive. Jack didn't care about them, just filled the new bowl with wine, and drank a large bowl in a sullen mood. I grabbed a few pieces of beef and was tasting the deliciousness of the beef. I saw the two brothers from the Jie family next to me, their four eyes widening like balls, and they had not yet swallowed the food in their mouths. The woman in green robe sitting nearby exclaimed: "Be careful!"

He tilted his head forcefully, and the chopsticks in his hand caught one of the hidden weapons flying toward the back of his head, which was a peanut. Turning around, he saw that the kid who was messing around in the inn was standing behind him, making a grimace, and even chanting a curse: "A white-skinned monkey, a golden retriever, a mother and a pig. They are so slovenly that no one cares about them. Go and make friends with pigs and dogs. White-skinned monkeys, golden-haired dogs,..."

The person being scolded was not angry yet, but the person sitting nearby became angry. The beauty in green clothes slapped the innocent table, stood up, and glared at the little devil. Before he could say a word, he burst into tears.

"Hey! What happened to my baby?" A woman walked out of one of the busiest tables. Her face looks like a peach blossom in March, hiding the charm of the moon; her body is swaying, as if she is shaking to death. Wearing a red and blue silk barrel skirt with silver hairpins and jade on her head, she is really gorgeous. She moved over step by step, picked up the child and stroked the little head. A large group of people gathered behind him. "Baby, no one will hurt you."

"Mom, they are cruel to me." The child cried towards this beautiful woman. I saw the woman's expression change, and she started to curse harshly. "Where did you bunch of scoundrels and scoundrels come from? How dare you bully my children. How dare you come again and see if I teach you a lesson!" Although this scolding was full of anger, it was in a clever way. , just enough anger, only her pretty face brought out a taste that no one could explain.

Her expression changed again, and the beautiful woman comforted her child with a loving smile. These different transformations are all just right and each has its own characteristics. But most of the people who were scolded were inexplicable, and they were clearly the victims. Especially the woman in green robe who stood up and was particularly conspicuous. Before she could say a word, she sat down again in embarrassment.

A group of people standing behind the beautiful woman, a man in the most gorgeous clothes stepped forward and said: "You guys are all from out of town, don't cause trouble on the territory of Mingjian Villa. Be careful that you can get in, but you can't get out." !" His expression also changed, and he began to flatter the beautiful woman beside him. There were obscene words and flirtations between the two of them.

"Hey, is our little ancestor okay?"

"See, you care. This is my little ancestor. When did he get involved with you again? If you want to get me into bed, just try to coax me with some sweet words. Say it, say it, see if I am happy or not. Not happy."

"Don't yell, don't yell. You can only keep these words in your mind, but you can't say them out loud. Who knows if the prodigal sons who are chasing the top ten beauties in the world will resent me to death."

"Oh, I can't say it, I can only think about it. Isn't that clear?" The beautiful woman walked back to her seat and shaved her face at the man who was teasing her. And what about the child she was holding in her arms? From behind his mother's invisible head, the kid made a face and stuck out half of his tongue at Jack and the others who were looking at him.

"Top ten beauties?" Jieqi on the side reacted a little to this term. Jie Liang thought for a while. "Could it be Yan Ruxiang, the pretty widow who ranks seventh among the top ten beauties. It is said that she is romantic by nature, can be both male and female, and she also has a little evil star beside her. Just the people who have had sex with her can fill two five-tooth ships. Big ship. His skills in bed are even better, and I don't know how many men and women he killed while doing it."

"Yeah~" Jie Qi nodded in agreement. "No matter how you look at it, it's very similar to the rumors. It seems that this woman is Yan Ruxiang."

"Hmph!" Jack held the wine bowl a little unhappy and let the woman in green robe sitting aside fill up the wine. After taking a sip, he stretched out the wine bowl. "Come again!" He completely ignored the conversation between the Jie brothers and just drank by himself.

"Ah! Be careful!" Jie Qi, who was sitting opposite Jack, exclaimed, unable to help even if he wanted to.

"Kill~" a young child's voice screamed. Look at him holding a short wooden stick and a big bowl slanted on his head, like a soldier charging into battle, rushing towards Jack's back.

Before anyone had time to react, Jack had already turned his back and grabbed the child's thin neck with one hand. Without even looking or thinking about it, I just snapped and settled the account immediately. "Well, it's much quieter. Hey, wine." The wine bowl in the other hand was passed forward again. But this time, no one reacted. Everyone looked at the child lying softly on the ground in shock, with his neck twisted unnaturally.

"Ah~ son." Pretty widow Yan Ruxiang ran over in a hurry, picked up her child and cried. "You are such a ruthless person. What sin has the child committed? He still has a bright future. My son~" There were many people with weapons in their hands, running forward and surrounding Jack and the others.

"The future is bright, huh!" Jack said with disdain, snatching the wine bottle from the woman in green shirt and filling it for himself. "Looking at the way you teach your child, I don't believe how good his future will be. It's just one more scum that is causing harm to the world."

"What did you say!" A group of people excitedly raised various weapons and stared at the rude Jack, and even the people around him became targets. The two Jie family brothers and the tall woman in a green robe were still dumbfounded and confused about the situation.

Pulling out the long sword handed over by a family member on the side, Yan Ruxiang pointed the sword at Jack with anger. "No matter what your reason is, today I want you to pay for my child with your life!"

"The reason is a joke!" Jack picked up the fishing rod beside him and stood up slowly. He turned around and looked angrily at the people surrounding him. Just this glance has made many people take more than half a step back. He read slowly word by word: "Whose fault is the adopted son's failure to teach him? Whose fault is his failure to teach his son strictly? Is it me, an irrelevant stranger?"

"Drink!" Yan Ruxiang thrust out his long sword with a squeak. However, Jack grabbed the door with lightning speed, and continued to exert more force in his hands. The pretty face had already been distorted by Jack's hand. "Is it possible that when I ask you to memorize the Three-Character Sutra, you can only say "Fuck your mother"? It's not shameful. Isn't it embarrassing?"

"Damn it! Go ahead!" The leading man gave the order, and all the family members raised their weapons and attacked forward. Jack held the person's left hand and just flicked it away. While shaking the person away, most of his face was left in his hand. All I saw was a bloody mess, which was shocking.

The faceless and beautiful widow's body was thrown towards the people who rushed forward, knocking down many people and blocking most of their movements. Almost no one believed what was happening in front of them, but the evil spirit that suddenly appeared in front of them had to teach them to return to reality, even if it was only for a moment!

No one had time to scream, or no one could scream. No matter it's because he has no life or because he doesn't have the guts to scream. All the people who were still alive just stared blankly at the man standing in the center of the inn hall. His blond hair and coarse linen clothes were messy and stained with blood, and he looked like an evil spirit from hell. The fishing rod and left hand in his hand were his weapons, which were more deadly than the broken knives and swords still left on the field.

"Hmph! It ruins the mood of eating!" Jack swung the fishing rod in his hand and threw all the blood aside. He picked up the fish basket and wine jar again and walked out of the inn. Leaving a group of people stunned.

The first person to regain consciousness was the woman in green shirt who had been following Jack. She looked at the lonely figure, picked up her baggage and hurriedly followed him. The two Jie family brothers glanced back and forth at Shura Tu and Jack's backs in the field with disbelief. They looked at each other for a moment, then followed him out in confusion.

As for this murderous crime in the inn, naturally a smart clerk went to report it to Xinjian Villa.

Standing on the boat, steam was rising from Jack's body with an angry look on his face. He had spent a lot of effort to clean the blood off his body. At this time, he still handed over the boat to the woman in green shirt and headed towards Meilong Town at night. The Jie brothers' boat still followed behind, neither tight nor loose. No one talked about what had just happened, and no one dared to say a word to Jack. A group of four people and two boats remained in deathly silence.

Suddenly, the Sword Master standing proudly on the bow of the boat made some movement, and his sharp eyes glanced at a small fire on the shore. I saw a small boat parked on the shore and only one person squatting beside the fire. It seems to be grilling fish.

A gust of wind blew up gently, and the boat did not rock at all. The sword master standing on the bow had disappeared. The frightened woman in green clothes quickly turned her head, and as expected, the missing swordsman had already landed on the shore. As a mortal, all he could do was take out two wooden oars and row desperately to the shore. The Jie brothers who followed behind also made the same move.

"Hmm~ The grilled fish smells so good." Jack changed his original murderous look and anger, smelled the aroma of the grilled fish, licked his mouth and praised it. "Can you share some with me?" Jack asked as he took a look at what the person squatting by the fire looked like.

The eyebrows are like willow leaves in early spring, implying the sorrow of clouds and rain; the slender waist is like a lazy oriole; the sandalwood mouth is light enough to make bees and butterflies mad. The water-colored silk dress was monotonous but not cloying, and it looked just right on her body. Even Jack couldn't help but praise in his heart, what a beauty.

"Split it with you? Okay." The woman in Shui Shang smiled lightly. The voice was like a new orioles, and the smile was as big as a crescent moon. The sight made the sword master almost lose control. I saw her brows parting and she uttered an ouch. "There are so many people, but there is not enough food."

Looking back, I saw that the two boats on the river had also docked, and the three people on board came to Jack's side. Seeing this stunning beauty before, the Jie family brothers were also dumbfounded. The woman in Shuishang didn't care much about other people. Although she saw another beauty with a "special" height, she was distracted and paid more attention. But all her attention was still on the stranger who suddenly appeared next to him.

"It doesn't matter." Jack just smiled at the beauty in front of him, prepared the fishing rod and walked to the shore. I heard the beautiful and elegant voice behind me say again: "Isn't it too late to prepare for fishin

The man who prepared the fishing rod didn't even talk to me, and he didn't even use bait. Targeting the ripples of the water on the river, the fishing rod swung out. With a flick of his wrist, he pulled the fishing rod out of the river. I saw four fish being pulled out of the water with their tails tied. With a twist of his wrist, four fish landed next to the fire alive.

"Wow, what a handsome skill." The woman squatting by the fire said sweetly. A pair of big eyes stared at Jack with admiration. "Are you strong?"

"That depends on your definition of strong." Walking back to the fire, Jack answered simply. Putting the fishing rod aside, he stretched out a hand and said, " Lend me your knife."

She handed a beautifully carved hidden knife from her waist to Jack's hand. At this time, others also noticed that she had a silver medal tied around her waist, ranking 49th in the Warrior Order. She herself didn't mind this much and just answered Jack's questions. "Being strong means that you can beat me to the point of ecstasy."

"Then I am indeed very strong." He took out his hidden knife and held it lightly, turning it in his hand slowly, using the knife to move his wrists and arms. After a few strokes, the fish belly and fish scales were cleaned, but the knife was not even wet at all. However, Jack still wiped it on his clothes, cleaned the knife, put it away, and handed it back to the woman in Shui Shang.

Faced with Jack's attitude, the Shuishang woman was a little puzzled. "Although you say you are strong in your mouth, why don't you seem to feel that you are strong in your heart?"

"Because I still know that someone can beat me to death. Knowing this kind of thing, how can I be arrogant?" He asked the beauty standing aside to check a few branches, and Jack skewered the fish and handed it to the woman in Shuishang. . She just smiled after taking the fish. "Wow~ The world is really big."

"Yes, the world is really big." Jack smiled and asked slightly curiously: "What's your name...?"

"Yan Yan." She replied briefly to Jack while placing the four skewered fish next to the fire.

"Yanyan? What a nice nickname..." Before she could finish her words, the woman in Shuishang laughed again. "No~" He picked up a dead branch on the ground and wrote on the ground. "My surname is Yan, and my single name is Yan, with a female character next to it."

"Yan? What a weird surname." Jack sat directly on the ground and commented on his feelings. But the Jie family brothers standing behind were surprised, because both the Yan family and the Jie family were listed among the four famous martial arts masters. And this Yan Yan also debuted not long ago. Judging from her warrior order, she not only ranked forty-nine, but was also ranked third among the top ten beauties in the world by martial arts people.

However, I don't know how much Jack knew about this, but he still looked the same as before. "By the way, Yanxing is rare. Have you ever met anyone with the same surname as you?"

"Yes." Faced with the question, Yan Yan just showed her pointed fangs and smiled sweetly. Jack also asked with some interest: "Who is it?"

"My father and my mother."

Should this be considered a misunderstanding on her part, or...

In short, the sword master was struck speechless for a moment by this psychological attack. He just stared blankly at the beauty who was smiling and grilling the fish.

Something seems wrong around you?

Turning around, he saw the woman in green robe with tears in her eyes again, staring straight at Jack.

As soon as his thoughts changed, Jack already knew why she had such an expression. He scratched his messy blond hair and thought for a moment before asking: "I don't know your name yet, tell me."

No matter it was the river breeze, the chirping of insects or the night owl, it was all louder than this beauty's voice. I really don't know how brave she was. "I am..."

"Hey! The big owner, this is the group of people!"
