In front of me, it's more like a small ferry than a dock. It should be used for ordinary river crossing ferries, with five or six boats of different sizes docked at the shore. There weren't many people, around ten boatmen sat there chatting leisurely.
Black sail bandits will definitely pay attention to these places, so we should continue to ride horses and travel
Ding Shao'an looked at the dock from a distance and said.
Jiang Fan smiled and rode his horse towards the dock on his own.
Young man ignorant! "Ding Shao'an was slightly angry, but he had no choice but to follow along with everyone.
Head of the boat! Is it possible to hire a boat? "Jiang Fan dismounted and strolled towards several boatmen.
An old man with a bamboo hat looked at the few people and quickly smiled, "How many guests, but we need to go to the other side
Jiang Fan waved his hand and said, "We're going to the east, about fifty miles. I don't know how much silver it will cost
The old man in the bamboo hat looked at the crowd and calculated with his fingers, "Little brother, you and your men need to hire two boats. It's just that it's over a hundred miles back and forth, and the journey is longer. How about two boats charging you three cents
The price is reasonable, okay. In that case, please kindly ask the bow of the ship to depart immediately
Looking back at Ding Shao'an, "Brother Shao'an, can I borrow some money
Ding Shao'an was furious and said, "Kid! As an employer, how could you ask me for a reason to borrow money
Jiang Fan said indifferently, "In case of emergency in the martial arts world, we will repay twice as much when we arrive at the place
No
Xiong Da suddenly spoke up, "Give it... give it to him
Ding Shao'an, the boss, was not willing, but in the end, he painfully advanced the shipping costs.
A group of eleven people hired two boats and sailed downstream along the river, with smooth sailing. In no time, they had already traveled more than forty miles.
Jiang Fan sat at the bow of the boat, seemingly bored and idle, so he chatted with the bow casually: "Captain, there weren't many people at the ferry just now, and business probably isn't doing very well either
The boatman rowed while the boatman laughed and said, "What I'm saying is that we usually cross the river from the dock in Hecang County. Across here is the eastern suburbs of Bao'an County, and we rely on those villages and towns in the outer city to make some money
Jiang Fandao said, "There are only two villages and towns in the eastern suburbs of Bao'an County. Since business is scarce, why not go to the dock in Hecang County to make a living? It's easier than here no matter what
The boatman said, "There are many people and boats there, and we have to pay a large sum of money. It's not much better than here
Jiang Fan smiled and asked, "Is that the reason? Or..." He suddenly took the scabbard and knocked on the boat gang, "Or did he just come here to wait for me
The boatman paused for a moment and said, "Little brother, what do you mean by that
Jiang Fan said, "Boathead, you boatmen are not weak in your hands. Everyone knows kung fu. Isn't it a pity to be a boatman
The boatman sighed and said, "Little brother, just tell me, where exactly did we reveal our secrets
Jiang Fandao said, "As you said, there's not much business here. There are usually only one or two ferries. Luckily, I know the young master, and they all have very fresh faces
The bow of the boat smiled and said, "Just this
Jiang Fan said, "That's not necessarily the case, but the one in the woods who keeps birds is not very suitable. What kind of eagle should we put here? Plus, you guys obviously know kung fu. Tell me, how could there be such a coincidence
Seeing the situation, the bow of the ship didn't hide it and simply took off its hat: "Little brother, anyone can tell such an obvious thing, why do you still want to board the ship
Jiang Fan said, "Hey! Isn't it true that we need a boat? Besides, if we don't board, even if you don't have enough manpower, you'll have to resort to violence at the dock. I'm very considerate of others, and it's inconvenient for everyone to resort to violence at the dock. Now that we've all boarded a pirate ship, you should rest assured. So, should you all disembark now
The boatman said, "Brother, these people are all skilled underwater. Aren't you afraid that we'll go down and chisel the boat
Jiang Fan smiled and said, "No, it's not easy to dig a boat in the heart of the river where the water is turbulent. Besides, you're just spies, just a messenger is enough. You guys are probably trying to make a living, and with just a few of you, we can't do it. Now that we've boarded the ship, there's no need to worry about us running away on the river. Let's take those horses and go, so we can pack up our pursuers waiting for you
The boatman laughed heartily and said, "I understand. Since that's the case, I'll take my leave now. Although I don't know why I'm willing to take risks, I advise you that if you can't escape on the river, it's better to surrender as soon as possible
Jiang Fan smiled and said, "Not necessarily. Maybe you'll have to watch over the young master for a hundred miles
The boatman shook his head and said, "A fool talks about a dream. Look, our people have already arrived, so I won't accompany them anymore
After speaking, he led his men to jump down the river and swim towards the boat carrying horses.
Why not kill! "Xiong San looked at the faintly visible sailing path in the distance.
Jiang Fan said, "There's no need, they're just messengers. Save some effort
Ding Shao'an said, "Since you already knew it was wrong, why did you have to board the ship? Isn't this a self destructive path
Jiang Fan pointed to the river surface and said, "At this distance, even if the big ship is fast, it will take a quarter of an hour to catch up with us, but we don't need to go any further
He turned around and saw a small sandbar on the river. Surrounded by rivers on all sides, with silver sand on the ground, and a small jungle in the center, the environment is very beautiful.
That's Bailuzhou? "Ding Shao'an frowned." What exactly is here
Jiang Fan said, "Fishing, what else can be found on the sandbar? Like attracts like a flock of people. I'm just a fisherman, and I only know these fishermen
On the river, two large ships with black sails puffed up, sailing downstream with the wind at an extremely fast speed.
On the first boat, the woman in the black tight fitting suit lowered her hand that was resting on her forehead and frowned slightly, "Our people jumped into the river
Miss, have Mr. Wang and the others been discovered? "Said a middle-aged man in his forties.
They were found to be normal, but what's abnormal is that these people didn't kill anyone. What are they going to do
The middle-aged man looked at the river in the distance and suddenly changed his face: "Miss, ahead is Bailuzhou Head
Bailuzhou? The woman said, "It's just a mudflat. Do they want to fight us here?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly said, "Miss, don't you know about the situation in Bailuzhou
The woman paused for a moment and asked, "How about Bailuzhou
The middle-aged man said, "Yes, the young lady has only been adopted by the gang leader for three years, and I'm afraid she hasn't heard of the legend of this place yet
He pondered for a moment and said, "Miss, you should remember that the gang leader once strictly ordered not to approach the White Egret Island. It is rumored that there is a group of exotic white egrets here, each extraordinary and divine, and they usually only inhabit here
My adoptive father did say that it's just a group of egrets, why is it forbidden to approach
The middle-aged man said, "I don't know about this subordinate, and the gang leader never allows me to ask. I just vaguely heard someone say that these white egrets seem to be raised by humans
The woman said, "It's not new for fishermen to raise egrets for fishing, but why is this egret island a forbidden area
The middle-aged man said, "Anyway, if they are going to Bailuzhou, we'd better consult with the gang leader to make further calculations. The gang leader is very wary of this place
