Spring flood.

During the spring flood season, crossing the river is always quiet but busy. The ferries on the river carry tourists from all over the country back to the bustling city from their hometowns to continue their life in the next year.

Haizhou is the largest drop-off point on this route.

"The person who is meeting Haiyazi is here! Is there anyone? The one who is meeting Haiyazi is here!"

A steward on a large passenger ship shouted and greeted the passengers who were about to dock and disembark.

He likes this kind of big port the most. There are so many people trying to get off the ship that almost no one will miss it.

The front deck was already crowded with people - the passengers were supposed to come on the deck after docking, but now the river was smooth and the boatman's crew did not stop them.

There were dozens of people in the bustling crowd, all dressed in simple clothes.

This kind of boat departs in the middle of the night and has few stops in the middle. It is also very popular because of its cheap fare and flexible departure time.

"Don't squeeze!"

Someone shouted at several men who were pushing forward with big bags on their backs.

Normally, such cursing would have no effect, and the two parties in the quarrel would often just exchange a few curse words.

But there was something different on the boat today. After the shout of "Don't squeeze in," there were actually a few more echoing voices.

"That's right, why are you so anxious?"

"Don't you see a child? What if the child is crushed?"

It turned out that there was a child in the crowd, about ten years old, wearing simple clothes, and his hand had clearly been stuffed with some fruit and food by other passengers around him.

The little boy's expression looked helpless and calm. He didn't say much, and just nodded politely to the adults around him from time to time.

"Uncle, I can't take any more. These uncles have given me a lot. You can keep it for yourself and enjoy it. There is no need to do this."

The little boy showed off the food he received in his hand, which again attracted praise from everyone around him.

"Hey, this kid is quite sensible."

"It's really rare."

It is not unusual for eight or nine-year-old children to be sensible.

There are not many people who live a hard life and are alone at a young age.

But this kid not only has the ability to take a boat from Siyang to Haizhou alone, but also has a very decent conversation, and seems to have a pretty good background.

A child who did not come from a poor family, was well-educated, and had the ability to travel far away alone.

From the beginning, the surrounding passengers suspected that the child might be a lost child of a wealthy family. However, they gradually became concerned after seeing that the child acted like a grown-up and was not noisy.

"Little baby, is there anyone to pick you up when you meet Hague?"

Someone asked this.

The passenger ship has reached a return bay in front of the Hague. A passenger ship of this size needs to sail out of the return bay, enter the sea, and then turn back and enter the port.

The little boy smiled: "No, no, uncle, I can do it myself..."

Before he finished speaking, the entire ship suddenly shook violently, and the people around him were a little confused and almost fell to the ground.

"Hey hey hey?!"

The crowd was in a panic, and several people fell down, including their baggage and others.

The child's eyes moved slightly, and he gave way slightly. The fallen person rubbed his body and fell to the ground, wailing in pain.

"What's going on?"

"What's wrong?!"

The crowd's chaotic voices came and went, and someone shouted anxiously and annoyedly from the direction of the bow:

"The river is blocked!"

What blocked the river was a pile of old and rotten ship driftwood, which floated on the river and was pulled up with a net. Although it could not directly block such a large ship, it was enough to make the ship tilt a little and the speed was low.

Slowed down.

"flutter!"

"flutter!"

Back on the shore of the bay, many large pieces of rubble suddenly flew out and hit the passenger ship, making holes and falling into the water, causing a huge splash of water.

"Ship! The ship is destroyed!"

The exclamations on the passenger ship became louder, and in the chaotic noise, someone shouted loudly:

"Bandit! It's a water bandit!"

"What kind of water bandit? You're going to see the Hague. Where did you get that water bandit?! He just ran aground on the rocks!"

"Where did the reef come from?"

The hull of the ship began to sink. Just as someone was anxiously grabbing the ropes and luggage, a group of figures suddenly jumped out from behind the rocks on the shore of the bay at an extremely fast speed.

This group of men and horses all had their faces covered, shouting like wild monkeys, and ran towards the ship. In just a few steps, they stepped on the large rocks embedded in the ship's body and rushed up the ship's side, quickly surrounding the ship.

's deck.

These people are all cultivators with spiritual roots!

"What a gangster..."

There was almost chaos on the boat. A masked man standing on the bow of the boat frowned slightly and shouted:

"husband!"

This was obviously a woman. After hearing this, a masked man behind her raised a black bell and shook it violently.

An extremely harsh bell rang loudly, causing the people on the ship to stop moving and cover their ears in pain.

The female masked person looked around with satisfaction, folded her hands on her chest, and said loudly:

"Fellows and villagers, we are not water bandits. We are only looking for one person today."

She raised her foot and stamped the floor: "The ship will not sink for a while. All people over the age of twenty, pack your luggage and prepare to disembark. I'm sorry to disturb you. Those under the age of twenty, stand up!"

Of course it was Shaggy with her face covered, and she was clearly enjoying playing the bully right now.

The people on the boat looked at each other in confusion, wondering what the female water bandit was up to.

"Those under the age of twenty, stand up!"

Shaggy repeated loudly.

"Why, why?"

The passengers murmured quietly, and then a somewhat childish voice sounded from the crowd:

"No need to bother."

A childish figure stood in front of the crowd, his voice sounded childish, but quite calm.

But it was the child who took a boat from Siyang all the way to Haizhou.

"is it him?"

Fuzzy raised his eyebrows and asked the rabbit leg next to him in a low voice.

Rabbit Legs nodded.

"Uncles and aunts, please pack your luggage and use the rope to get off the boat. I think these heroes are not after your money."

The child will naturally not be someone else.

"What are you doing with a baby?"

Someone in the crowd shouted angrily but worriedly.

Before Mao Mao could reaffirm his image of a bully, Liu Cheng had already put his right hand into his arms and took out a pen.

With a flick of his wrist, the tip of the pen glowed with ink color that could be seen with the naked eye, surrounding the entire deck, completely isolating the group of masked water bandits from the people on the ship.

"Everyone."

Liu Cheng took a breath, turned around and blinked at Maomao.

"Who comes first?"
