But for such a pretty little girl, he couldn't bear to speak harshly, nor could he bear to ignore her.
Even though the little girl was pretty, the boatman still said earnestly, "Isn't the little girl a local?"
He looked left and right, but saw no one else.
Unconsciously, he said with the same kindness and compassion as his elders, "Although I don't know why, little girl, you are here alone in this kind of weather, but little girl, no matter what happens, this weather is not going to work. If you don't mind, just follow
I'll go and warm myself up at home, drink some hot water, and warm myself up before we talk."
Seeing Jiu'er looking at him with a smile, the boatman suddenly remembered that this little girl was so striking and beautiful. Could it be that he was afraid that he was a bad person with evil intentions?
The boatman quickly explained calmly, "My wife must have made soup since I haven't been back for so long. Although she is a country fisherman, she is also good at making fish soup."
Jiu'er thought for a moment and smiled without fear, "Okay, then I won't bother you."
Boatman: "..." Did he think too much? This girl doesn't seem to be afraid of meeting bad people.
In this way, Jiu'er and the boatman entered the fishing village together.
The boatman's wife is also a very kind middle-aged woman.
Although she was surprised at first, she didn't say much even though Jiu'er was dressed up in such an "immoral" way.
Seeing such a cute and pretty girl wearing so little clothes, no matter what the reason, the woman felt heartbroken.
He invited Jiu'er to sit by the fire pit, and quickly served her hot soup.
Faced with the enthusiasm and concern of the boatman and his wife, Jiu'er only paused for a moment and then obediently drank the hot soup and put on the fur style that the woman thought she couldn't afford.
Soon, Jiu'er's face turned pink visibly to the naked eye.
The woman breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Little girl, you have warmed up now."
Jiuer smiled at her and said, "Thank you, auntie. I feel much better."
There was no expression on his face, but his body was suffering from double the burning fire.
The boatman and his wife had no idea that they had done something bad with good intentions, nor did they know that Jiu'er was suffering double the pain.
I just feel that looking at Jiu'er makes people lovable, but it's hard to ask too much about Jiu'er.
It was Jiuer who spoke first after finishing the soup, "Uncle and aunt, have you seen any strangers going to sea in the past few days?"
The boatman waved his hand and said, "No. Little girl, don't think about it. Not to mention the past few days, since the first snowfall more than 20 days ago, the sea has not sailed. We old fishermen can't go to sea, let alone
Others."
Jiu'er secretly thought to himself that it seemed that he had indeed arrived earlier than Duan Rong's people.
After all, he took a shortcut.
Of course the boatman still remembered Jiu'er's previous question about whether he had a boat to go to sea.
Seeing her pondering, he quickly said, "Little girl, you really can't go out to the sea at this time. All the sea areas here are collectively called the Wuhai Sea Area."
"The Wuhai sea area is incomparable to other sea areas. It is always very dangerous, not to mention the harsh winter weather. Little girl, please give up your thoughts."
Jiuer licked his lips to cover up another wave of burning pain in his body. He tilted his head slightly and said seriously, "There is no way, my sister was taken away. She is locked up somewhere in the Wuhai Sea.
On the island. I want to save her."
When she said this, the boatman and his wife were stunned for a moment and then took a deep breath.
"But by pirates?"
"That's right, a very, very powerful pirate."
The boatman and his wife didn't know what to say, but, "You, a little girl, went out to sea safely and found your sister, how can you save her from the vicious pirates?"
Jiuer smiled and said, "But, I came here specifically to save my sister. I can't ignore her."
"Uncle and aunt, people in your fishing village depend on the sea for a living all year round. There must be special circumstances where they have to go to sea in dangerous seasons. I believe there are such boats and capable people in the village. I wonder if you can introduce them to me and let me ask.
Ask them if they can send me to sea?"
"Of course, I will pay a price and remuneration that they are satisfied with. I will also do my best to protect their safety."
To say this, a petite little girl who seems to be blown away by the wind is enough to make people laugh.
But when Jiu'er said it to them, the boatman and his wife immediately took it for granted.
When they came back to their senses, they felt extremely strange.
The boatman goes out to sea all year round and is also a knowledgeable person.
He immediately became suspicious, "Little girl, forgive us for being presumptuous, I don't know, little girl, you..."
Jiuer smiled sincerely at them, "I am a doctor."
She stretched out her soft white hands and opened her teeth and claws in a deliberately exaggerated manner, "It's the kind of demon doctor, witch doctor, and poison doctor that ordinary people call, the kind that is particularly powerful in evil practices. Are you afraid of it?"
The boatman and his wife were stunned for a moment and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They just thought she was cute.
Jiu'er saw that they didn't take her seriously, so she held the woman's hand and said, "Auntie, you got cold last year, which may have affected your fertility. But auntie, you are still young, only thirty-two. I will give you a prescription. If you
Believe me, take the medicine according to my prescription, drink it for a month, and the coldness in your body will be gone."
The woman didn't understand it at first, or she didn't react after she understood it.
When I came to my senses, I was a little shy at first.
No matter how old I am, why would I be laughed at?
Then the muscles on his face began to tremble, and the corners of his lips trembled.
"Girl, you, you are telling me that I can still, can..."
She couldn't believe it.
Jiuer nodded affirmatively, "Yes. You are in very good health. This is not a big deal."
"But it's a pity that I came out in a hurry and didn't bring any pills for this. You can only drink Chinese medicine and mix it slowly."
This time not only she, but also the boatman became excited.
Although they are a loving couple, they have no children, which makes them a bit lonely and regretful.
As for whether Jiuer was bragging or not, they really had no doubt at all!
I just feel convinced...
When the two finally calmed down from their joy, the boatman and his wife fell in love with Jiu'er even more.
Naturally, I was even more worried about her.
"As the saying goes, water and fire have no mercy, let alone the dangerous sea. Girl, even if you have great medical skills, you still..."
Facing Jiu'er's eager and expectant eyes, she couldn't say any words of advice.
But in the end, Jiu'er didn't let Jiu'er go out in this weather. Instead, he invited the village's experienced sailors who had the strongest and best boats.
He was also a middle-aged man, with firm brows and deep eyes.
Jiu'er could tell at a glance that this man's hands were definitely stained with blood.
The man didn't show any surprise when he saw Jiu'er, a pretty girl who seemed out of place in this place. He just said matter-of-factly, "I heard you are going to sea?"
Jiuer nodded, "I wonder how this gentleman is willing to send me to sea?"
The man glanced at Jiu'er again, "Are you a doctor?"
Jiuer smiled and said, "I am."
"Then you come with me."
Jiu'er got up and followed him without asking.
The boatman and his wife were worried and they all followed.
Jiu'er was taken to the man's house and was not allowed to do anything else except to treat his father.
The boatman's wife quietly told Jiu'er that this man's father had been bedridden for many years. She only said that he suddenly became paralyzed and that they had not seen him for a long time.
Jiuer expressed understanding.
Jiu'er was invited to the ward alone. When he saw the old man on the bed, he could tell at a glance that it was not paralysis at all, but poisoning!
If paralysis does occur, it will not happen overnight.
Poisoning is easy to say!
The poison in the old man is not like that of a bad street, but it can't stop Jiu'er.
Half an hour later, Jiu'er came out and said with a smile, "Sir, the patient has woken up. However, due to lying for too long, his limbs and mobility have deteriorated, and he still needs to stay in bed for a few days to recover."
"I'll give you a prescription for recovery. Take the medicine according to the prescription for a few days. At least, before we go to sea, the patient can barely walk normally."
The middle-aged man took one look at her and ran in. He came out quickly, and the serious look on his face finally became a little cracked.
The look in Jiu'er's eyes was almost trembling.
But when people hang out in Jianghu, they all have a tacit understanding of each other.
Jiu'er didn't ask him how an old man from a small fishing village could be poisoned by such an unusual and powerful poison. The man didn't ask him who Jiu'er was, that he could detoxify from such poison in such a short time!
That's it for going to sea.
Even though the boatman and his wife tried to persuade him, they couldn't keep Jiu'er.
Three days later, when Uncle Gu, that is, when Jiu'er found the father of the middle-aged man, he could get out of bed and move around, all the people and materials needed to go to sea were ready.
Although Jiu'er didn't bring up Emperor Cangyu, he revealed all the possible dangers of 'pirates' without hiding anything.
Uncle Gu did not back down, nor did the sailors who were willing to go to sea.
It's nothing else.
But the reward given by Jiu'er was enough, and they worked hard and risked fishing just for a bite to eat.
So it's just a deal between you and Jiu'er, and Jiu'er is the employer.
Three days later, after bidding farewell to the reluctant boatman and his wife, Jiu'er, Uncle Gu and others boarded the ship - going to sea! (To be continued)
