Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Water Escape

Lin Zhiqiang froze for a moment, and Liu Rumei heard the mysterious sound transmission: Miss Liu, quickly help Lin Shaoxia break out, I will help you in the dark Liu Rumei didn't know that Lin Zhiqiang had also heard this mysterious voice transmission, so she didn't have time to think about it, and immediately said to Lin Zhiqiang through voice transmission: Lin Shaoxia, the enemy is too strong, please listen to my arrangement and wait for an opportunity to break through. Then, he raised his voice and said: Dongmei, Lin Shaoxia's wound must be bandaged again, come with me quickly.

While speaking, he took Lin Zhiqiang's arm and ran to the side, but at the same time, he said to her two guardians through voice transmission: "Lao Liu and Bai Lao will cover later, anyone who tries to intercept him will be killed!" Before the sound transmission was over, he and Lin Zhiqiang jumped into a rapeseed garden on the left. At this time, Ban Tong and Diao Meng were fighting in full swing, so they naturally didn't notice that Lin Zhiqiang had been escorted away by Liu Rumei, but someone in the shadow shouted loudly: "It's not good!"Lin Shaoxia has been kidnapped by Miss Liu of Chicheng Villa!

By the way, that kid surnamed Lin has slipped away! let's chase Ban Tong, who was fighting fiercely, shouted sharply: Diao Meng, did you hear that? Diao Meng sneered and said: As long as the one surnamed Lin doesn't fall into your hands, I have hope Ban Tong snapped angrily, "Fart! Then he yelled loudly: "People in this palace, separate and pursue immediately, if necessary, you can kill them!" yes! Amidst a series of respectful voices, I saw people's shadows flashing one after another, in an instant, only Ban Tong and Diao Meng who were fighting between good and evil were left on the ground.

Although Lin Zhiqiang and Liu Rumei had already hidden in the rapeseed garden, because they were surrounded by powerful enemies and they were not familiar with the environment, they didn't know where to run for a while. At this moment, the mysterious sound transmission sounded again: "Both, please continue." Amidst the words, a black shadow clung to the tops of the rapeseed and fell directly beside the two of them. For Lin Zhiqiang and Liu Rumei, Fang Zi was slightly taken aback, and the mysterious sound transmission hurriedly said: "You two, quickly change your clothes, and ask Brother Lin to throw the clothes to me, and I will lead them away after I modify them, then , the two sneaked eastward, followed the ditch into the small river, by the river, I have prepared the boat, and went down the small river. After dawn, we will reach Ditou Town.

After a slight pause, he immediately continued: Don't hesitate, you two, change your clothes quickly. At this time, there was a lot of noise from the surrounding people, shouting: must be going west! West is a dead end, must be east To the east is a small river and a dead end Stop arguing, you two, according to my thinking, he must still be hiding in the rapeseed garden. In this situation, Lin Zhiqiang and Liu Rumei didn't have time to think about it. While changing their clothes in a hurry, Lin Zhiqiang asked through voice transmission: Is it Miss Xiaomei? A faint long sigh came from the shadows: Yes, Brother Lin, at the moment I can only help you secretly.

Lin Zhiqiang said via voice transmission: "Miss Xiaomei, if Lin Zhiqiang is lucky enough to escape this catastrophe, when he makes a little progress in the future, he will surely Zhou Youmei interrupted the voice transmission and said: Brother Lin, stop talking through the voice transmission, keep your spirits and prepare for the unexpected! At this time, Lin Zhiqiang had already changed his clothes, threw the suit he was wearing to Zhou Youmei's hiding place, and said: "Miss, please continue." After a while, Zhou Youmei's voice transmission came: "You two, please remember my words, and please take good care of them."

At this time, the enemies who were searching for them were only three to five feet away from them. Although they were separated by the thick rapeseed, the shadows of swords, lights and swords were already faintly visible. Hearing Zhou Youmei's hoarse voice, she sneered and said: "You rats who are not afraid of death, follow up!" In the voice, the man had jumped up and shot westward, which happened to be the opposite direction of the way she instructed Lin Zhiqiang to retreat.At this time, Zhou Youmei had already changed into Lin Zhiqiang's clothes, so she couldn't see clearly in the dark, so the enemies hunting Lin Zhiqiang shouted and flew to intercept him.

It wasn't until this moment that Lin Zhiqiang stopped and sighed softly: Miss Liu, we were wrong! Liu Rumei asked in a low voice in surprise: What's the matter? Lin Zhiqiang said: If there is something wrong with Miss Zhou, wouldn't it mean that she died in my hands? Liu Rumei said with a low smile, "If I were her, I would reveal my original identity when necessary." At this time, ten feet away, the murderous aura shook the sky, and the sound of howling and screaming could be heard endlessly. Liu Rumei changed the subject: Miss Zhou, martial arts is very good Lin Zhiqiang cut off a wry smile and said: At best, it will not be stronger than you and me

That's not necessarily true.Liu Rumei laughed and said: You hear the sound of charging like a tiger into a flock of sheep, it is much stronger than you and me! Lin Zhiqiang frowned while listening, and Liu Rumei continued with a smile: Lin Shaoxia, don't disappoint Miss Zhou's kindness, let's go quickly At this time, all the people who tried to kidnap Lin Zhiqiang had been lured away by Zhou Youmei, and the two of them naturally reached the small river smoothly. That's right, there was a small boat with a black awning moored beside the shore, and there was no one in the boat, Liu Rumei boarded the boat first, waved to Lin Zhiqiang and said with a smile: "Come on, there are still delicious things prepared inside!"

Lin Zhiqiang boarded the boat, Liu Rumei smiled mysteriously and said: This Miss Zhou has thought of everything so carefully, even our clothes are fishermen's attire, it seems that she has a deep affection for you! Lin Zhiqiang grew up on the Gan River since he was a child, and his water skills and boat handling skills are all superior to others. At this time, he pushed the boat away from the shore and let it go down the current, but he let out a deep sigh. Liu Rumei suddenly said in amazement: There are gold leaves and a jade pendant in this pocket! As he spoke, he took out a stack of gold leaves and a piece of jade pendant from his pocket, and handed them to Lin Zhiqiang together, saying: Yo!These are all for you.

Lin Zhiqiang shook his head and said: No!Miss Liu, these are still in your custody. Liu Rumei asked in surprise: Why? Lin Zhiqiang smiled wryly and said: I think these may belong to the owner of the clothes, and she took them together in a hurry wrong!Liu Rumei laughed and said: "Think about it, do ordinary people, especially fishermen, have these precious things?" Lin Zhiqiang frowned while thinking, Liu Rumei continued with a smile: "Fool, the gold leaf is a gift for you, and the jade pendant is a token of love. Don't you think so?" As he spoke, he stuffed those gold leaves and jade pendants into Lin Zhiqiang's arms. Lin Zhiqiang took the jade pendant blankly, and saw that it was green all over, about half a finger wide, three inches long, and five cents thick. Holding it in his hand, he felt a warm feeling. Because this jade pendant was just taken from Liu Rumei's bosom, it was still warm, so it's not surprising that Lin Zhiqiang didn't have time to think about it, and didn't check it out, he sighed lightly, and immediately put it into his bosom. Liu Rumei asked with a smile: Lin Shaoxia, how long have you known Miss Zhou? Lin Zhiqiang smiled wryly and said: I just met tonight. Liu Rumei asked in surprise: "I treated you so well when I first met you!" Lin Zhiqiang responded casually: She was originally my fiancée. Liu Rumei snorted and said: Originally?Could it be that right now? Meimu put a question mark on Lin Zhiqiangjun's face, but didn't continue. Lin Zhiqiang cut off his mouth and sighed: Don't mention these things. Without waiting for the other party to speak, he immediately changed the subject and said: Miss Liu, I appreciate your kindness in protecting me from danger, but those of your subordinates Liu Rumei asked with a cut-off smile: Are you worried that they won't find me?Or are you afraid that they are in danger? Lin Zhiqiang nodded solemnly and said: both. Liu Rumei said: Don't worry, between me and them, we often leave without saying goodbye, and there will be no problem with their safety. Lin Zhiqiang continued: "Miss Liu, no matter what, I'm finally out of trouble temporarily. I think it's better to ask the girl to go back." Liu Rumei's pretty face changed, and she asked: Are you driving me away? Lin Zhiqiang frowned and said: Miss Liu, if I, Lin Zhiqiang, have this heart, can I still be considered a human being? Liu Rumei said with deep eyes: Then why did you drive me back? Lin Zhiqiang smiled wryly and said: Girl, I am here for you and your subordinates Liu Rumei continued: I've already said, you don't need to worry. Lin Zhiqiang frowned and asked: Miss, how long do you plan to escort me? Liu Rumei said: Wherever you want to go, I will escort you there. Lin Zhiqiang said: But, the place I want to go is far away! Liu Rumei said: No matter the ends of the earth, wherever you can go, I can go too. Lin Zhiqiang's expression changed and he said, "Girl, we met by chance, and we have traveled a long way. You and I are alone and widowed." Liu Rumei smiled coquettishly and said: You are so pedantic, I don't care about these things, do you still care?As long as we have a bright heart for each other and a clear conscience, why worry about other people's gossip. Without waiting for the other party to speak, he immediately changed his expression, and continued with deep eyes: Lin Shaoxia, I know that you are an upright gentleman, and I also know that you are sincere, but there is one thing, maybe it is inconvenient for you to speak, let me replace it for you. What did you say? Lin Zhiqiang was taken aback and said, "What do you think the girl said?" Liu Rumei smiled mysteriously and said: "Is Lin Shaoxia unwilling to go with me because this trip has something to do with the legendary Jade Ship and the Lin family?" Lin Zhiqiang smiled wryly and said: Miss Liu, the rumors may not be reliable. To tell you the truth, I really don't know anything about it. Now, it was Liu Rumei's turn to be stunned. After a while, he sighed softly: "The words came from Lin Shaoxia's mouth. I have no reason not to believe it, but I also say something that you can believe or not. Okay, whether there are any special missions or strange encounters, I, Liu Rumei, will never have any unreasonable thoughts, and I can swear to the sky! The girl is serious!Lin Zhiqiang smiled awkwardly and said: Miss Liu, can we talk about something else? Liu Rumei only wanted to achieve the purpose of accompanying her. Of course, it didn't matter what she talked about. After hearing the words, she immediately nodded and said with a smile: "Okay!"So tell me a little bit about your fiancée! Lin Zhiqiang frowned and sighed: Hengzhi is idle and boring, so it's good to talk After he briefly talked about the relationship with Zhou Yimin's father and daughter as far as he knew, Liu Rumei couldn't help sighing: "Human love is thinner than autumn clouds, so thin that autumn clouds can still be seen. This is really true." . Pausing for a moment, he continued with deep gaze: However, Lin Shaoxia, this girl Zhou Youmei, cannot be in the same breath as Naifu. Lin Zhiqiang sighed softly and said: Thank you for reminding me, girl!In this situation, I understand that I hope the heavens have eyes, and that Lin Jiabao can regain its former prestige in the hands of me, Lin Zhiqiang. I will never forget these people who have helped me in times of adversity Before he finished his words, he let out a long and faint sigh, and passed away from the sky above the boat. Lin Zhiqiang and Liu Rumei were startled when they heard the sound, when they looked out, they saw the river was mighty, the two sides were silent, and there was not a single figure anywhere. It turns out that after sailing along the current for a while, the surface of the small river has gradually expanded, and the width of this section is at least thirty feet or more. On this not-too-narrow river, there was a ghostly presence, coming and going without a trace, and letting out such a faint long sigh, with Lin Zhiqiang and Liu Rumei's skills, they didn't notice it at all. It's not hard to imagine, Liu Rumei couldn't help laughing bitterly at herself: If it weren't for the fact that Dongfang had turned pale, I would have thought I had encountered a ghost! Lin Zhiqiang was stunned, and then sighed: "If you don't enter the rivers and lakes, you don't know how big the rivers and lakes are, and how many strange people there are." Liu Rumei asked with a broken smile: Lin Shaoxia, look at that person, is he a friend?Is it the enemy? Lin Zhiqiang smiled and said: If it is the enemy, we two will lose ten lives! So.Liu Rumei frowned and asked, "Who do you think you are?" Lin Zhiqiang said: Who knows!In the rivers and lakes, there are many incredible things and incredible people, let's leave him alone. Raising his eyes to look downstream, he continued with a wry smile, "Girl, Ditou Town is coming soon. Our current appearance is easy to attract doubts, and we need to remodel it properly." right!Liu Rumei asked: Do you have any extra clothes in your luggage? have. So let's dress up as brothers and from now on I'm yours He suddenly stopped talking, and then asked with attention: How old are you this year? Lin Zhiqiang smiled and said: Eighteen. Sorry about that!Liu Rumei covered her mouth and said with a coquettish smile: I am your elder sister, after changing your disguise, you have to call me elder brother. Lin Zhiqiang was taken aback and said: Are you older than me? Liu Rumei smiled and said: Can this still be fake!I am two years older than you, you have to feel wronged, I want to call you little brother When the boat arrived at Ditou Town, the two had already changed into a pair of brothers who looked like traveling scholars. Because Zhou Youmei was very thoughtful, food was already prepared on the small boat, and the two of them didn't need to go ashore. After eating grass and grass, they immediately transferred to a large boat at the pier that went directly to the Yangtze River, and headed upstream. This is also Liu Rumei's big brother's idea. Going against the water is much slower than land, but it can reduce the chance of encountering the enemy. At the same time, Lin Zhiqiang's wounds can also be recuperated, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone. . Of course, for Liu Rumei, there is another thing in her heart, that is to get along with the person she likes in a small room and talk about her heart. This kind of spiritual enjoyment can only be felt, not expressed in words. After three days of water journey, most of Lin Zhiqiang's wounds had healed, and Liu Rumei felt that the invisible distance between him and the person he liked had shortened a lot. At dusk that day, Jingzhou City was already in sight. Jingzhou, located on the north bank of the Yangtze River, borders Xiangfan in the north and Changyuan in the south. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. There are still many historical sites in the vicinity of the Three Kingdoms era. After three days of living on the boat, Lin Zhiqiang was a little bit still, and when the boat approached the pier, he couldn't help smiling at Liu Rumei: Brother, how about we abandon the boat and land? Liu Rumei shook her head and said: No!I mean, I'm thinking of chartering a smaller boat to sail directly to Yichang! Lin Zhiqiang continued: Brother, sailing against the current is really too slow. Liu Rumei said: Second brother, have you forgotten our current situation? Lin Zhiqiang raised his eyebrows and said: Then, let's go ashore for a stroll, it's okay Liu Rumei shook her head and said: "There's nothing to go shopping, let's go as soon as possible, it's serious." Lin Zhiqiang salivated with a smile on his face and said: Brother, Jingzhou was an important military town during the Three Kingdoms era. This area has the most historical sites. It is rare for us to get here. Wouldn’t it be a pity if we didn’t pay our respects? Liu Rumei was only two years older than him, and this statement naturally aroused her enthusiasm, so she stopped insisting, but she still put on the big brother's posture, and said solemnly: "Okay!"Let me promise you once, but you must obey my elder brother's arrangement in everything, and you are not allowed to act without authorization. Lin Zhiqiang nodded again and again: OK, OK, no problem So, after a little tidying up, the two went ashore together and entered the city. Although Jingzhou is an ancient city, it is full of merchants and the market is very prosperous. Lin Zhiqiang and Liu Rumei walked slowly side by side, turning from the small street leading to the pier to the main street. On the surface, they casually browsed the night scene of the street, but in fact they did not relax their guard against the surroundings. Among the bustling crowds on the street, there are obviously many martial arts figures among them. Of course, this situation cannot escape the sharp eyes of these two caring people. Liu Rumei touched Lin Zhiqiang with her elbow, and after the two exchanged knowing glances, Liu Rumei said through voice transmission with her true energy: Pay attention to the two people in front. Walking in front of them was an old man in gray clothes who was about sixty years old, and a scholar in green clothes who was about forty years old.The two walked and talked, acting like no one else was there. When Lin Zhiqiang secretly cast a deep glance at the other party, the scribe in blue just happened to be smiling flatteringly at the old man in gray and said, "Old Gui, the top three in the world, gathered in Jingzhou at the same time. Could it be that they are all for the sake of the Lin Family Fort?" Is it evil? The gray-shirted old man nodded and said: At present, it can be said so, but the reason is not simple. The scribe in green shirt said: "Old Gui, can you please explain in more detail?" The old man in gray shirt said with a smile: "Brother, over the years, you have retreated and cultivated, and your kung fu has made great achievements, and you have made great progress, but you are very alienated from the dynamics of martial arts!" Without waiting for the other party to open his mouth, he immediately continued: "Brother, the thing is like this. In the past few years, the three major factions in the Jianghu, on the surface, stand on the same footing and do not invade each other, but in fact they are secretly intriguing and using everything. Its pole is trying to eliminate the opponent in order to achieve the goal of dominating the martial arts. The green-shirted scribe laughed and said: "Old Gui, this situation has been formed long before I retreated!"All I know is the current dynamic. The gray-shirted old man said: "That's simple. The current situation is the continuation and deterioration of the previous situation. That is to say, among the three major factions, they all think that they are full-fledged and can compete with each other." The green-shirted scribe then asked: So, at this moment, the people from the three sides gathered in Jingzhou, isn't it all for that scoundrel of the Lin family? good.The old man in gray shirt nodded his head and said: The three parties have already arrived in Yunmeng area, ready to wait for the opportunity to fight, but because of the news of the Lin family's return to the rivers and lakes on the way, the three parties have shifted their targets invisibly. The green-shirted scribe said: "Old Gui means that the three parties have transferred the power that was already prepared to fight each other to the evil breed of the Lin family." good. Is that scoundrel of the Lin family so important? The gray-clothed old man smiled and said: The Lin family's evil breed is not light in the first place, and with the addition of the legendary emerald ship, it is even more worthwhile to go all out in all three aspects. The green-shirted scribe said with an oh: That's how it is. Paused slightly, he turned his head and asked: "Old Gui, I heard that that kid appeared in Jianli three days ago. Now, why are the three main forces concentrated in Jingzhou?" The gray-shirted old man laughed dumbly and said: It's really embarrassing to say that at that time, there were at least a hundred people from the three major parties, but they were taken off by a young man with a hairy head, and no one knew which party he was from. Let's go, review each other, think that the boy's movements are obviously going to enter Sichuan, and entering Sichuan from Jianli, regardless of land or water, Jingzhou is the only place to pass. The green-shirted scribe cut in and said: I understand, but, if that kid doesn't pass through Jingzhou, is there any possibility of a fight between the three parties? The old man in gray shirt said with a smile: "I'm afraid that even the leaders of the three major organizations can't answer you in advance. All in all, whether the Lin family scoundrel will come or not, and how the situation will develop after he comes, are the main keys." During the conversation between these two, Lin Zhiqiang, who was eavesdropping on the sound of a boy or a villain, wished to follow up and give them a hard blow, but considering the current situation, he had to endure it reluctantly, burning with anger, He had no choice but to ask via voice transmission: Sister Liu, what is the origin of these two? After three days of getting along, even the title was changed. Liu Rumei replied via voice transmission: Nine out of ten they are Shangguan Xuan's subordinates. Then, he turned his head and smiled and asked: "Brother Qiang, do you still want to visit the historical sites here?" Lin Zhiqiang nodded his head resolutely: Of course we have to go shopping But before his voice transmission was over, Liu Rumei suddenly and hastily voice transmitted: No, my father is here! Lin Zhiqiang's heart skipped a beat, and he saw five horses galloping towards him.
