After all, in addition to the cargo, there are at least two hundred people on this ship.
She asked herself that when she was at the dock, all her outfits were perfect. Even she herself might not be able to recognize herself after makeup. So how did those people know that she was on this ship?
Also, if those people knew she was on the boat, why didn't they catch her at the dock earlier and wait until the boat had reached the center of the river before they caught her?
Mu Jinshi took a deep breath, she really couldn't do anything now.
Here on the river, the water is too strong.
And through chatting with people in the past few days to get information, she also learned that the water in the Linhe River is very deep, and there are usually many whirlpools underwater.
If you are not careful, even a huge merchant ship will be sucked into the whirlpool, let alone a person!
This sounds exaggerated, but so many people have said it that Mu Jinshi actually believes it.
After all, these people who often sail boats on the river, their experiences are often lessons for those who come after them.
She remembered clearly asking an old sailor, "Have you ever swam from one end of the river to the other side?"
What did the old sailor say at that time?
"How is that possible? Look at the boats docked at our pier. In fact, the pier is not far from the shore. It is completely different from those on the seaside. The piers on the seaside all extend far from the land and are located in places with deep water.
We built a wharf to avoid stranding the ships docking there. But our wharf on the river is built entirely on the river bank. Because the water on the bank of the river is very deep, it is enough for a boat as big as ours to dock.
It never runs aground!”
Of course Mu Jinshi did not doubt the old sailor's words, because what she saw was this.
The old sailor also said, "There are countless whirlpools under the water of Linhe. People often say that Linhe is a branch of the Tianhe River. When it seems calm, it may be the most dangerous time for Linhe, because the calmer the surface is, the more likely Linhe is.
The whirlpool under the water is even more terrifying. Sometimes it looks like strong winds and big waves, but in fact there are whirlpools at the bottom of the water that can offset part of the wind and waves from the opposite direction, so it is safer. Of course, if the direction of the wind and waves is different from that of the whirlpool
If they are heading in the same direction, it will be a disaster. There is absolutely no way that any of the merchant ships traveling with us will be able to successfully reach the other side or come back safely!"
Mu Jinshi was surprised, "Are there many shipwrecks?"
"Yes. The most suitable time for walking along Linhe every year is winter. No matter how cold it is in winter, Linhe never freezes. This time is about the same. But in more than a month, Linhe will be closed. At that time,
It’s just not the right time to pass. That’s why the boats on the river are so busy now!”
It is precisely because Mu Jinshi has a comprehensive understanding of Linhe's situation that she does not dare to take any chances!
If she really jumped into the river, she would probably be swept directly to the bottom of the river by the whirlpool.
Now, we really can't make any progress or retreat.
Mu Jinshi's face turned a little pale. Was he really going to be killed by the Queen's people, or captured by Chen Lin's people?
How could she be willing to do so?
Mu Jinshi bit her lip, anxiously thinking of countermeasures, but after thinking for a long time, she realized that she really had no good countermeasures!
