Chapter 944 Ban knife noodles, eat wontons, how dare you show off with Lao Tzu?
It is named after the Yangtze River ferry in ancient times. The Yangtze River is an important riverside with its broad river, deep water and big waves. The rolling water flowing eastward is also very majestic. However, the weather is cold and the scenery is desolate. What is the situation inside the river?
Qingzhi, but you can see: solitary geese in the frozen clouds, and jackdaws circling dead trees. The snow in the sky looks like pear blossoms, with pieces floating in the air. There are wine bottles beside the jade bridge, and fish and carps at the Yinpu ferry. There are two or three faint houses in the front village, on the river.
It's too late to draw.
Zhang Heng exhaled a breath of cold air and came to the bank of the Yangtze River. He expected to see the usual boats crossing the river, but there was no one. At this time, Zhang Heng felt something strange in his heart: Jiangning Mansion is the capital of Jiangnan East Road.
, there are so many traveling merchants traveling from north to south on weekdays, so how can there be no boatmen to make a living?
Confused, Zhang Heng walked around the riverside again and looked around. Suddenly he saw smoke rising from the reeds in front of him. Upon seeing this, Zhang Heng immediately shouted loudly: "Is that a boatman over there? Come on!
Bring the ferry to take Master across the river!"
As soon as the shouting stopped, Zhang Heng saw rustling in the reeds. A man wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat came out and asked Zhang Heng, "Where are the guests going?"
Zhang Heng raised his head and said again: "I have important matters to go to Jiangning Mansion! I'll give you more money for the boat, and I'll get you across."
The man looked Zhang Heng up and down and said, "It's okay to take you there. It's just that it's late today, so I crossed the river and had no place to rest. You just rested in my boat. When the wind is calm and the moon shines at the fourth watch, I will
I'll ferry you over and give me some more money for the boat."
Zhang Hengke was far more arrogant and impatient than his brother Zhang Shun. After all, he was also a ruthless person who had no capital to make a living on the waterway, and he did not believe in the lies about crossing the river without a rest. It was hard to travel for days, and Zhang Heng was even more so.
Impatient, he glared and shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, you are a master who is easy to fool? You have a boat, how can you be a bird in the wind and snow? Now you can take grandpa across the river, no more at worst."
Some shipping money with you!"
There was a flash of light from the trick exposed under the Ruo Li, and it turned around on the package that Zhang Heng was carrying. Although the package seemed to be very heavy, the man saw that Zhang Hengsheng was seven feet tall, had triangular eyes, and had a yellow beard.
He had red hair and red eyes, and his appearance was ferocious and fierce. He didn't look like a fuel-efficient lamp. His mind changed and he said again: "Since you are sick, please come with me, sir."
Zhang Heng snorted coldly and followed the boatman into the reeds. Not far away, he saw a small boat moored by the beach. Under the canopy, a thin young man sat on the boat and warmed himself by the fire.
"Fifth brother, this guest wants to cross the river. If you are willing to pay more for the boat, go and let go of the boat and take this guest across the river." The man wearing a bamboo hat said with his back to Zhang Heng, and then said
He winked at the young man. The young man understood and immediately untied the rope and asked Zhang Heng to get on the boat and cross the river.
It’s just that Zhang Hengke is by no means the brother he was back then who just wanted to do law-abiding business and make a living as a fisherman. Zhang Heng’s pair of tricksters were also paying attention to the scoundrel-like young man’s expression. When he looked at the stern man’s eyes, his expression changed slightly, and he was greeting him.
When boarding the boat, he kept looking at the package he was carrying. Zhang Heng sneered in his heart. Although he had just planned to make a living as a water bandit on the Xunyang River ferry, he was blocked by Xiao Tang, and later he had to surrender to Li Jun.
He started a business of selling smuggled salt, but the gangsters on the waterway followed the rules of killing people and stealing goods. He was a well-educated person.
At this time, Zhang Heng said in his heart: At that time, I was afraid of missing my brother and my mother, so I had to follow Li Jun to make a living. But if I still want to be a water bandit, I don’t know how much money I can make in this prosperous place like the Yangtze River.
...intimidating the boatmen who went to the surrounding areas to go elsewhere, occupying this important place and waiting for someone to be killed...Isn't this exactly what I planned to do back then? Let's take a look at these two birds first.
How do you plan to make money from me!
After Zhang Heng and the boatman jumped on the boat, the young man also opened the bamboo pole on the boat, put on the oar, and swung it out of the river with a hoarse sound. Zhang Heng stepped on the ship plank under his feet and could already feel the bottom of the boat.
There were a few interesting noises, but he didn't take them seriously. He casually found a place to sit down and looked at the boatman and the young man who were holding the tiller and oar playfully.
As the boat rippled leisurely, getting closer and closer to the center of the Yangtze River, the boatman and the young man saw Zhang Heng placing the heavy package on his side, holding the waist knife in his arms, and looking only at them. The young man then saw
He coughed slightly and said: "My guest, the wind and snow on the river are heavy, so you need to be more careful when sailing. Go to the cabin and take a nap for a while. The little man will call you when you get to the other side."
Zhang Heng also laughed coldly when he heard this, and said gloomily: "You two birds are going to coax grandpa to sleep, and when you tie me up, are you going to eat noodles or wontons with me?"
When the boatman and the young man heard Zhang Heng say some slang words often spoken by the strong men who walked on the waterway on the Great Song Dynasty, their expressions changed immediately. However, when the young man and the young man were about to move, Zhang Heng suddenly stood up and said:
He stepped heavily on the plank in the middle of their ship where the sword was hidden.
Zhang Heng had a ferocious look on his face, and sneered: "The boys on the road are engaged in water banditry, but it is becoming more and more unpopular! When I want to make a living, no matter how many fat sheep he has on the boat, at least I have to see the winner in person.
, Teach him to die convinced! Look at the ability of these two birds to steer and punt the boat. They only dare to do business without capital when they deceive people into taking a nap. It shows that they have no courage and ability, but they dare to do it.
You are here to bring trouble on me, but you are not just a master of the arts, but you dare to use a big sword in front of Guan Gong?"
The boatman suddenly shouted loudly, took off the bamboo hat on his head and threw it at Zhang Heng, and he and the young man waited for the opportunity to rush forward together. Suddenly Zhang Heng stepped heavily on the board of the ship, and the drifting boat suddenly jolted.
Get up! The boatman and the young man suddenly staggered on their feet and almost fell upside down on the board. Zhang Heng took advantage of the situation and rushed towards them!
Although Zhang Heng's skills on land were only fierce and not very extravagant, when he was fighting with people on a floating and bumpy wooden boat, Xiao Tang, Shi Xiu, and Yan Qing were all nearly injured because they were not good at water.
He followed his lead. At this time, Zhang Heng used his skills of rushing through the waves like a water monster and leaping over the waves like a flying whale. Within a matter of seconds, he knocked the captain and the young man onto the board of the ship. The sharp
Only then was the waist knife drawn out and placed on the neck of the boatman who had blood flowing from his mouth and nose. Zhang Heng said in a ferocious voice: "Shacai! If you don't accept it, you can take the knife from under the ship's plank and compete again. I will teach you."
These two birds know very well that grandpa is Zhang Heng, the hero of Liangshan! Now it is grandpa who wants to ask you two if you want to eat flat noodles or wontons!?"
Only then did the boatman realize that they were no match for Zhang Heng, so he immediately cried out and begged for mercy: "It turns out that we are fellow-soldiers, but they are actually heroes from Liangshan Mountain! But it is a villain who has no eyesight and bumped into a hero! Villain
My name is Zhang Wang. My colleagues all call me the River-Jiejie Ghost. This is Sun Wu, a loach who has recently partnered with me. However, because he is forced to make a living and has no place to live, he often robs passengers in this river.
I don’t want to offend Brother Zhang Heng!
Didn’t my brother say that he has something urgent to do in Jiangning Mansion? Although the villain is not good at all, he is still wandering around the local roads, but the two of us are useful. I will do my best to help my brother succeed. I just want to spare the villain.
life!"
Zhang Heng was about to swing his sword to kill the two water thieves who hit the knife's edge, but then he thought about it and thought that what the man named Zhang Wang said was somewhat reasonable. When moving around in the rivers and lakes, they usually rely on the help of local snakes.
Zhang Heng is very clear about the truth. Although Zhang Wang and Sun Wu can only be said to be proficient in water and have mediocre abilities, they are still people who hang out in Jiangning Mansion. This time they came to Jiangning Mansion not only to invite the miracle doctor
He went to Liangshan to treat his brother Song Jiang's back disease. Hearing the meaning of Wu Xuexuu's words, he saw the opportunity and cut off An Daoquan's retreat, telling him that he could only go to Liangshan Luocao. Zhang Wang and Sun Wu were considered local snakes, so they should keep them for now.
Their lives might come in handy.
Zhang Heng thought again that Zhang Wang and Sun Wu could be regarded as figures in the green forest. The extra money would allow them to go to Liangshan, which would also add a little more glory to the navy, so he took the waist knife from Zhang.
Wang's neck was pulled open, and he said to Zhang Wang in a solemn voice: "Since we also rely on water for water, your surname is Zhang, and you can be regarded as my family. I will spare your two lives for the time being. As for me going to Jiangning
If you two can really help with the important things the government is doing, you don't have to do such hard work here. I will recommend you two to go to Liangshan, and you will be at the top of the list!"
