Three hundred and sixtieth chapters all the way north
Looking at the distant sky, I suddenly had the idea of running away alone. I was also worried that Ling'er would be killed on the road. Even if I escaped this disaster, the world is so big that no matter where I go, I would still need a place to stay.
The pursuers behind him should be catching up soon. Should we leave or not? Maybe it would be easier to let go of the commotion, but facing Ling'er's face, I don't know whether I should leave or not.
Ye Fan was silent for a long time and said: "Ling'er, now the Xueya Kingdom is hostile to the four countries in the Snow Region. It will be a matter of time before it is destroyed. We may also die if we go back." At this point, he sighed longly and said, "I think
Rather than this, it would be better for the two of us to fly far away."
Ling'er also sighed softly, rested her face on his shoulder, and said: "Brother, in fact, Ling'er doesn't want to go back, and also wants to go far away, but you are now the king of Xueya Kingdom and the son of the whole country.
The fate of the people is tied to you, how could you just walk away like this? Besides, Aunt Han and Uncle Han are very good to me. If we don't go back, they might be worried to death. Ling'er is so conflicted."
"Aunt Han and Uncle Han?" Ye Fan was slightly surprised, thought for a while, and then said: "Ling'er, do they treat you well?"
"Of course, Aunt Han has loved me the most since I was a child. No matter what I want, she will try to find it for me." At this point, Ling'er frowned and murmured: "It's just that when I came out, Xue Ya
Only Xuefeng Ridge is left in the country, Hanjiabao and Xueya Capital have not been captured, and I don’t know what happened to Uncle Han and Aunt Han now."
"Then let's go back." Seeing Ling'er's appearance, Ye Fan said calmly, and felt a little unwilling to do so: "Let the pursuers of the four people from Xueyu become so embarrassed, it is just a good opportunity to use Xueya Kingdom to fight with them.
Get into a fight, be arrogant, and get out immediately if the situation is not right."
"Okay." When Ling'er heard this, he smiled for a while and said, "Shall we leave now?"
Ye Fan nodded and said: "Yes, the sooner the better!" The two of them had made up their minds and packed up. They left the north gate in the early morning and came to the mouth of the river. They chartered a large boat and followed it.
The river is broad and flows smoothly to the north of the mainland.
It had been a month since the ship docked, but this time he didn't encounter any pirates or water beasts, which made Ye Fan sigh that his luck had turned around.
Stepped onto the pier.
The first thing Ye Fan noticed about this pier was that it was rough and wide.
The entire pier is made of rough bluestone and simple wooden boards. Although the place is simple, there are a lot of things piled in the east and west corners. Some simple taverns are actually standing directly on the edge of the pier, surrounded by
People were constantly coming in and out, making it extremely chaotic.
After leading Ling'er off the boat, the strong men standing at the dock all stared at the two of them without blinking, and some even had greedy looks in their eyes.
Ye Fan sneered, and then his breath relaxed slightly.
Suddenly, a coldness hit the entire pier. The hearts of those people with gleaming eyes suddenly jumped wildly. Most of them were stunned and suddenly let out bursts of miserable screams. However, some people standing by the pier suddenly screamed.
They lost their footing, and the sound of "plop, plop" kept coming, and they plunged into the waist-deep river water one after another.
Ling'er made a 'puff' sound and laughed out loud, "Brother, you are so bad, you scared those people so much that they jumped into the river, haha!!"
"If we don't do this, others will only think that we are easy to bully, and then trouble will come." Ye Fan chuckled, leading Ling'er out of the dock.
Two hundred steps away is the main road. There is a hotel on the side of the road. Although it is simple, it is spacious. A waiter in front of the shop is yawning. Hearing the sound, he looked at the place where the screams were coming and sneered: "Those bastards are bullying people.
Damn, you might as well drink some water."
Before I finished thinking about it, I suddenly heard a shout from inside the house: "Brother, bring me another jar of wine!" The man was startled, put a dirty rag on his shoulder, changed his smile, and said, "Here you go!"
Come on." Turning around, a gust of wind blew across the khaki-black wine cover, with the four old characters "Yicheng Wharf Old Store" written on it.
The store was full and lively. A bearded man took the wine jar and put it on the table with a bang. The dishes and bowls on the table were clattering wildly. He placed two large blue and white bowls, filled them with wine, and laughed.
Said: "There is a way, a person's name is like the shadow of a tree! Think of the 'Fengjiang Yiba' Se Shangshou, 'Dinghe' Jie Kongkong or whatever, they are all the masters who occupy Hejiang.
But as soon as I saw my master’s post, I was all extremely respectful and rushed over. Even I, the one who handed the post, felt a little noble and domineering..." He said with joy.
, raised the wine bowl and drank it all in one go.
The man across the table was lean and short, with his whiskers twitching under his chin, and said with pride: "That's right, my master is the emperor of the Huai'an Kingdom. Even the king of Huai'an has to kneel down and bow to my master when he sees me. Those pirates
Not to mention!"
After the lean and short man finished speaking, he drank a bowl of wine and said with a smile: "Brother Luo, as the saying goes, 'a tiger fakes the power of a fox', this is really true. My master's name is still the same."
Good for you." When he got excited, he poured another bowl and drank it all.
But at this time, a half-white old man sitting next to them seemed to be worried. He tapped the edge of the porcelain bowl with his five fingers and sighed: "Brother Han and Brother Luo, haven't you noticed that I have been a little different lately?"
The man surnamed Han was drinking most of the wine in the bowl. When he heard the words, he put it down and said loudly: "Old man Wu, what are you talking about? If you dare to speak against me here, be careful when you go back and let me slap you to death. You have already
You are half lying in a coffin, so you should look at this colorful world a few more times."
Old Man Wu drooped his eyelids and said with a wry smile: "I'm not just talking nonsense, old man. I always feel that the master's temperament has changed a lot since he came back this time."
At this time, the man surnamed Luo put the bowl down on the table, touched his chin and murmured, "Listening to what Old Man Wu said, I've been really weird lately. I used to look down on those pirate masters and so on.
Yes, I will take the initiative to invite them, well, this matter is really a bit mysterious."
"Okay, we are just running errands and taking care of you. We don't need to worry about the master's trivial matters." The man surnamed Han drank the strong wine in the bowl in one gulp. The smell of alcohol was rising, and his eyes were a little red.
.
After hearing this, Old Man Wu and the man named Luo lowered their heads and drank without saying a word.
Suddenly I heard the waiter outside the door shouting and looked up, only to see a young man and woman stepping in. The man was tall and tall, with a wide forehead and long eyebrows. His starry eyes were smiling and he looked approachable. The girl had skin like mutton fat and eyebrows.
Picturesque, a pair of big black eyes are spinning around on everyone's face.
Ye Fan glanced at the store, frowned and said: "Ling'er, this place is very dirty, please change the place!" After finishing speaking, he was about to exit, but Ling'er pouted and said: "No, brother, I just got off the boat and my feet
They are all soft."
Ye Fan took Ling'er's hand and said with a smile: "Okay then, just sit here for now!" He turned around and looked at the waiter and said with a smile: "Please clear a table and clean up the place."
The shopkeeper was startled. He had seen a lot of customers coming and going from north to south. This was the first time he had met someone who spoke to him so politely. However, he was very thoughtful. After being stunned for a moment, he immediately said with a smile:
"I'm sorry, sir, there are so many people in the shop, I'm afraid there is no space..." Just as he was saying this, he suddenly saw the girl's eyes were unkind, her heart was pounding, and her voice gradually weakened.
Ye Fan stretched out his hand and held Ling'er's palm, and said with a smile: "Then I'll help the shopkeeper find tables and chairs to make up the seats!" The clerk happily agreed.
Ling'er gave Ye Fan a charming look and said softly: "Brother, why are you so kind to this guy..." Ye Fan frowned and smiled, but did not say anything, but in his heart he smiled bitterly and said, "Why can't I tell you, brother?"
