The fat man held the reins of the horse and kept nodding and bowing to Xiao Han. His flattering look made people immediately think of three words in their minds: What a bastard! A bastard from a landlord's family!
"Why do I need a horse so late at night? Why don't I give it to them quickly?"
Looking at the fat man who just had a piece of dog skin plaster on his forehead, Xiao Han rolled his eyes and pointed helplessly at the few red-feathered messengers in front of him.
Hey, people say it’s a troubled time!
It’s not autumn yet, but so many things have already happened! Even when I get up late at night to go to the toilet, I can meet the Red Feather Messenger. Such luck...
"oh……"
Maybe he noticed that Xiao Han was not in high spirits. The fat man who was so flattering just now was a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and led the horse to the front angrily. Then he glared at the red-feathered messengers and then looked mercilessly.
He reluctantly handed the reins to them:
"Here, ride carefully! These are good horses! Just after feeding them beans and eggs, when you get to the inn, remember to tell the boss there that this horse is Xiaohou's horse in Sanyuan County! He will naturally
The horse will be returned."
After muttering a few words, the fat man turned his head and returned to Xiao Han, not noticing that the mouths of the messengers were already open enough to swallow a goose egg!
"Are you? Sanyuan County... Xiaohou?!"
Seeing that the fat man had returned to the young man's side, the leader of the messenger swallowed hard and stared at the vague figure in the darkness! Suddenly his knees bent, and the whole person was pushing the gold mountain.
He knelt on the ground like a jade pillar!
"Xiao Hou! Help!!!"
——————————————
Noon, west of Luoyang City!
Cui Renshi, who succeeded Duan Zhixuan and became the governor of Luoyang, the capital of Luoyang, is standing on the bank of the Yellow River.
The cold wind of spring blew the hem of his clothes, but Cui Renshi seemed to be unaware of it. His bloodshot eyes kept staring at the busy river.
Suddenly, among the crowd by the river, an official in green robe hurriedly squeezed out and rushed towards Cui Renshi: "Sir! The collision is ready! The north wind has also risen, we are here
Shouldn’t we start now?”
"good……"
After hearing this person's report, Cui Renshi's petrified body finally trembled slightly. Just as he was about to say yes, he suddenly thought of something and suddenly raised his hand to stop the green-robed official who was about to turn around and call.
"etc!"
"ah?"
The green-robed official was so abruptly interrupted by Master Cui Ren that his breath caught in his throat and he almost choked to death! Just when he was about to turn around and ask if he had any other orders, Master Cui Ren lifted up his robe and stepped on the cold mud in person.
The river beach and walked towards those crowds!
"grown ups!"
"grown ups……"
When they saw Master Cui Ren coming, the crowd on the shore were stunned for a moment, then quickly moved out of the way and saluted the governor who passed by them.
Master Cui Ren walked very fast, and the muddy water brought up by his feet splashed on his bright red official robe, making it particularly dazzling.
But at this moment, Master Cui Ren didn't seem to notice it at all, and he still walked quickly towards the big ship docked on the shore step by step.
"Sir! It's dangerous ahead!"
"My lord, we can't go any further!"
Ahead, officials and craftsmen began to reach out to stop Master Cui Ren.
Today's Yellow River is too dangerous. On the turbid river, ice cubes the size of millstones are seen flowing down the water from time to time!
Some of these ice blocks hit the river bank, causing a large hole in the already soft river bank.
Some of them crashed directly into the big ship, causing the huge hull to tremble!
"grown ups!"
Seeing Master Cui Ren being stopped by everyone on the shore, a bearded man with an extremely rough and bold appearance emerged from the deck of the ship, and then he laughed and raised his hands and fists towards Master Cui Ren:
"Hahaha... Why should you be anxious, sir? Just go back and wait for the good news from a certain family!"
"Strong man!"
Master Cui Ren was blocked in the middle and could not move. He could only take a deep breath and shouted at the plywood: "The millions of people in Luoyang rely on the strong men and brothers!"
The man continued to laugh, and his heroic laughter resounded throughout the river: "Hahaha! Don't worry, sir! The wives, children, old and young of a certain family are also in Luoyang City! A certain family will definitely live up to your trust!"
After saying that, the man put away his smile and waved his hands heavily: "Brothers! Are you ready?!"
"alright!"
Scattered shouts came from all over the ship. Although the voices were louder and quieter, the tone was the same firm and decisive!
"In that case, let's sail!"
The sound of the trumpet sounded on the river, and the cables holding the big ship were cut off one by one! The huge sail was raised to the tall mast, and then it was quickly swollen by the cold wind, driving the huge hull.
Go slowly downstream.
"Wind, blow the sail! Boat, take me to a distant place! Sister, don't miss me! Tomorrow, brother will be back..."
I don't know when, a barcarolle came from the ship that was getting faster and faster.
The man's heroic voice roared out the melody that was supposed to be resentful and lingering. Everyone on the shore felt sour in their hearts and the corners of their eyes slowly became moist.
Just three days ago, officials patrolling the river embankment sent an urgent report that large floes were flowing down the river from the upper reaches, squeezing each other, and getting stuck in the Bali Gorge, and were not allowed to continue flowing down the river!
When this news reached the ears of Cui Renshi, the governor of Luoyang, this humble gentleman, who was born in the Cui family of Boling and was always famous for his calmness and cultivation of kung fu, actually turned over the desk! Then he dropped everything and hurried here.
!
Bali Gorge!
This is the last canyon in the middle reaches of the Yellow River. According to legend, it was formed by Dayu splitting the mountains when he was controlling the floods! So just think about it and you will know how dangerous the terrain is!
Of course, in fact, Bali Gorge is indeed worthy of the word "dangerous"!
During normal times, if you sail in it, you can not only see the mountains on both sides of the strait and the trees blocking out the sun, but you can also feel the exciting feeling of Jinling with a white background and arriving in the morning and evening!
But in such a dangerous place, once the valley mouth is frozen, the water level will rise!
Even a fool knows what the outcome will be!
Ice floes, not dams, will eventually be washed away!
By then, countless Yellow River water will break through the obstacles and rush down the narrow canyon! The entire downstream area will feel the magnificent scene of "the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky"!
However, such a magnificent scene comes at the cost of the land and lives of countless people!
Not to mention anything else, the city of Luoyang, which is just downstream of it, is absolutely unavoidable from this disaster!
