The place where Su Ren's wooden boat ran aground was a sandbar. There are not many sandbars on the Yellow River, because the current of the Yellow River is fast and it is difficult to form sandbars. Even if a few sandbars are built during steady times, they will be washed away immediately once there is a flood.
It's spotless.
This sandbar is very big, and there is even a small patch of low bushes on it. Huang Shisan wanted to get off the boat to check, but Su Ren stopped him. He asked Manniu to put the small armchair next to the side of the boat, and Su Ren stood on it and went to the boat.
I took a look inside the sandbank. It was getting dark, and the bushes on the sandbank were also pitch black. Not to mention any human figures, not even a single hair was found.
"Since you invited me here, you should come out to see me. Can't you wait until dawn tomorrow?" Su Ren shouted loudly: "What they used for Guan Weiwei and the others was just some anesthetic. With the strength of the soldiers, it can be done in three or four hours."
Wake up, you don’t have much time.”
Several lights flickered in the bushes, maybe because of the wind, or maybe because of the obstruction. In short, the lights appeared in the bushes like will-o'-the-wisps. After a short time, the three of them finally saw clearly that the light was actually a stick.
Torch. The person holding the torch is a child of twelve or thirteen years old. He has a very ordinary appearance, with a big head, big nose, and big mouth, but he has a pair of small eyes.
The child held a torch and came to the place where the wooden boat ran aground. He looked at the three black figures on the side of the boat, and then fixed his eyes on Su Ren: "May I ask if he is General Su?"
"Who are you?"
"The master of the family and the Mohist master are on the sandbank. Please go and talk to General Su." The child was not taken away by Su Ren and carried out his task seriously.
"The Mohist giant? That old guy wants to see me and let him come! He overturned a boat full of people and even tried to get me out of the boat. Forget it if he doesn't come!" Su Ren was also unambiguous. He wanted to see how this child was doing.
response.
The child didn't say anything. He bowed slightly to Su Ren, turned around, took away the torch and entered the bushes again. Huang Shisan had already raised his crossbow. As long as Su Ren gave the order, he promised to let the child die.
In front of him. However, Su Ren did not give any orders. He got down from the small armchair, sat down on it, and only meditated for three breaths.
"Immediately contact Ah Xun and all our personnel nearby and ask them to come over as quickly as possible!"
Huang Shisan didn't dare to neglect, and turned around and entered the cabin to get the emergency flare. This thing was invented by Su Ren. He originally wanted to make fireworks for the festival. He didn't expect that the thing he created turned out to look like a flare, so
It can be used as a flare. This is the first time I have used it. I have left this thing on for too long and I don’t know if it will still work. If it doesn’t work, I will be in trouble.
A soaring flame penetrated the black sky. Not to mention a small sandbar, you could clearly see it even on the other side of the Yellow River far away. When the red fireball with white smoke appeared in the darkness,
After drawing a beautiful arc, Mo Cong looked up for a long time.
"What is this?" The old man who was talking to Mo Cong on the ridge a few days ago was beside Mo Cong. He was startled by a red light between the sky and the earth, and then showed an excited look.
Mo Cong shook his head: "I don't know, but according to my guess, Su Ren should be asking for help!"
"This is a sacred object. This Su Ren actually used this object to seek help. What a waste of nature!"
The boy with the torch came back, handed the torch to the big man standing next to him, came over and bowed respectfully to the two old guys: "Master, Su Ren asked you to go to his boat and say, it seems that he
Will never come."
Mo Cong smiled slightly: "I said that it's useless to use that trick in front of Su Ren. This guy is not only very familiar with your things, it seems that there is nothing in the world that he doesn't know. Anyone who can deceive everyone
Tricks have no effect in front of Su Ren."
The old man snorted coldly: "Huh! We haven't met yet, so you don't need to use provoking methods! Now that I'm here, I will naturally have a few fights with that Su Ren. Luan Da went to carry out the five ghosts and let that General Su see him.
experience!"
After firing three flares in a row, Su Ren felt relieved. One flare might not be visible to people on the shore, but three in a row would definitely attract people's attention. He believed that A Xun must be thinking of ways to get here as soon as possible.
What I have to do is to wait as long as possible. As long as Ah Xun leads Tiangang Disha over, those guys will no longer be a problem.
There has been no movement for a long time since the child left. On the dark Yellow River, only the sound of water is depressing. The starlight in the distance is on the dark top of the mountain. It is very boring to not move. The same is true for the sandbank.
It was pitch black, with no lights or fires, only the rustling of the shrubs in the river breeze.
A ball of fire suddenly appeared in the middle of the sandbank, and then a huge lantern appeared, swaying and starting to rise, getting higher and higher from the ground, slightly over the bushes, and more than a person tall. With the river wind, it suddenly moved from left to right,
Keep climbing and keep getting brighter.
Man Niu stepped in front of Su Ren, holding the long sword across his chest. Huang Shisan also raised his crossbow, aiming at the rising fireball.
Su Ren glanced at it for a few times, then pushed the bull away and leaned on the back of the chair to admire it with interest. Who said that Zhuge Liang invented the Kongming Lantern? It existed during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Such talents are the material of scientists.
, he knew about the buoyancy problem of hot air two thousand years ago, he is definitely a smart man.
"Interesting! Mo Cong finally found a smart man. They have ruined everything the ancestors of the Mo family have done. They can't even make such a small thing. It's really ridiculous!"
Huang Shisan and Man Niu kept staring at the fireball flying higher and higher. Su Ren coughed: "Don't look at that thing, focus on the bushes!"
Mo Cong's laughter appeared under the side of the ship. Huang Shisan and Man Niu quickly looked away. Su Ren didn't look at it and said lightly: "Since the Mo family giant is here, let's get on the ship and have a glass of wine. Is it possible for you to give me a drink?"
Is all the wine drugged?"
Mo Cong climbed onto the wooden boat with great effort, looked around, and took a few breaths: "I'm really old. Such a small distance almost killed me. Listening to what General Su just said, it seems that he knows the secret of the five ghosts' transportation?"
"
"Five ghosts transporting?"
Mo Cong glanced at the huge lantern that was still in the sky. Su Ren chuckled: "That thing is called the Five Ghosts Carrying! I thought the Five Ghosts Carrying was ghosts moving things? If the giant is talking about that thing, this general
I really know, I’ve done it before, but it’s not that big.”
"Haha!" Mo Cong smiled: "I said I couldn't help General Su, but now it seems that's true."
"One is meaningless. If we make a few more and release thousands of them at night, it would be spectacular. If we make them big enough, it is possible for a person to fly up. The only problem is firepower and materials. I think this general
The silk in Shu is better sealed. What about fuel? Kerosene is the best, but it’s a pity that kerosene cannot be stored. This is the biggest problem.”
"Hey!" Mo Cong sighed, sat down opposite Su Ren, picked up the flask, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it: "How could a smart man like General Su be willing to be escorted back to Chang'an?"
, aren’t you afraid that the emperor will be really angry and punish you?”
Su Ren smiled: "Without saying anything in advance, I would like to ask, sir, if Bian Tong is one of your people?"
Mo Cong shook his head.
"That's good. Since he's not Mr. Mo's, I'll take care of him when I get back. I hope the Mo family won't take action then."
"It is indeed Bian Tong's fault in this matter. It is up to General Su to kill or behead him. I guarantee here that not only the Mo family will not interfere, but the people represented by Bian Tong will not take action either. As long as..."
Su Ren snorted coldly and interrupted Mo Cong: "There is no need for Mr. Mo to put forward any conditions. Zhu Maichen, Bian Tong, and the three dynasty people wanted to attack my wife last time, but they did it for the sake of Old Lieutenant Zhuang."
After passing them, they still dare to act recklessly this time. Even if I ask for mercy from the King of Heaven, this general will not let these three guys go. In addition, I can tell Mr. Mo that not only these three guys will not escape death, but their relatives will not be able to escape either.
Better off."
"Why does General Su do things so absolutely?"
"People are easy to bully. I don't want to cause trouble, and I have never caused trouble. But I am not afraid of trouble. Now that they have taken action, we must think about the consequences! If we let these three people go this time, someone will do it again in the future.
, Mr. Mo said what should I do, General?"
"Even if the three of them died innocently, their family members had nothing to do with this matter. Why would General Su embarrass a group of women and children?"
Su Ren smiled: "I wonder if Mr. Mo has heard of such a saying, it is said that if the grass is cut without eradicating the roots, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows. If those people from Biantong don't provoke me in the future, it will be fine. As long as I know that there is a connection between them.
, I will get rid of it!"
"Hahaha..." A hawk-like laughter suddenly came from the bushes: "You are so loud, I am here, I want to see how you get rid of me!"
Su Ren didn't show any weakness. He stood up and shouted loudly: "Hide your head and show your tail. This kind of trick is too childish. No matter how cunning a mouse is, it will come out of its hole. That laughing gentleman, do you want to talk to this general?"
A gamble? Within a year, I will make it impossible for you to gain a foothold in Dahan!"
Just as Mo Yu was about to persuade him, he heard someone in the bushes saying: "What if I take a gamble? It depends on whether you die first or I die first!"
Su Ren laughed and pointed at Mo Cong opposite him: "Today the Mohist giant is the witness, how about it?"
“It’s a deal!”
Mo Cong was both happy and worried for his old friend. Mo Cong knew to some extent what kind of character Su Ren was. Since this kid could say such things, it meant that he was ready in case of any eventuality.
Something happened to my old friend, and I was the one who invited him to come out. How should I explain it to others?
"Why does General Su say so much? What if..."
Su Ren laughed: "Half an hour ago, I would not have said this if I were killed. But it is different now. I can say whatever I want, hahaha..."
Mo Cong was startled and quickly looked towards the dark Yellow River. He could vaguely see several boats in the distance speeding towards this side. (To be continued)
