Chapter 104 Chapter 17 Centipede Ship

As soon as Xiaoguang heard the whistle, his face changed drastically, and he swallowed after trying to speak several times.At this moment, Xu Shaode chased after me. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I was fine, but he became nervous again after he found Xiaoguang and Fan Li.Xiaoguang calmed down a bit, and said that after we left the wing, they woke up, but someone suddenly moved outside the wing, and the sound was actually the group of traffickers stealing and selling cultural relics.Xiaoguang had been guarding the nunnery for a few days, and now she was delighted to hear their voices, but she suppressed her excitement because she wanted to find out where these traffickers lived.

The group of dealers seemed to be searching for something. They divided into several groups and searched from room to room until they opened the door and entered the room where Xiaoguang was.The group of traffickers opened the secret passage as soon as they came in, and then got in, but because Fan Li and the others slept in a corner, and the flashlights of the traffickers were parallel imports, they weren't very focused, so they didn't notice anyone else present at all.Xiaoguang and Fan Li decided to follow behind, trying to find out the whereabouts of the other cultural relics of the silk book, but I was amused when I heard this, the silk book was in Fan Li's hands, he really knows how to pretend.

"Then what about the people you follow, won't you lose them?" I asked them. "They ran ahead. We heard a sound in the water, so we came to have a look. I didn't expect you to run down too." Xiaoguang ignored my joke and replied seriously. "I also saw them running forward just now, is there something going on ahead?" Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered seeing Xue Datou, so I told Fan Li what happened just now, and he also felt very strange when he heard it. But what is going on is not clear at once. "Stop chatting, go over and have a look." Seeing that he couldn't get in, Xu Shaode urged me to leave.

"Hey, do you recognize the person who whistled just now?" I secretly asked Xiaoguang as we walked forward. Xiaoguang looked serious, and for a moment she wanted to speak, but she didn't speak after all.I was making fun of myself, and my heart was furious, but Xiaoguang seemed to have changed after hearing the whistle, as if he had a deep hatred and failed to repay it.The sewer extends further in, and the muddy water turns into clear water, but because it is in the dark, the flashlight shines on the water, and the light reflects back, so it is even more unclear what is in the water.I tasted the water, and it really was sea water, absolutely unmistakable.Although Liaoning is close to the sea, there is no need to build such a hidden sewer that leads to the sea. At least I can't see the use of the sewer.

Xue Datou and the others had already run far away, but he had already laid a poisonous hand on us, so we didn't dare to neglect. We didn't dare to turn on all the flashlights. It's good that we can see things a few meters away, and we can't expose the target.Xiaoguang and Fan Li didn't know what was hidden in the water either. They never encountered any danger. They didn't know there was anything in the water until they saw me.But when I asked Xiaoguang to try summoning things in the water with animal language, she refused, but I kept asking her to show off her special skills.

"No way, no way." Xiao Guang said with a dark face. "Why, we've all seen you speak animal language, why are you so shy?" I laughed. "Whoever is shy with you, shut your crow's mouth." Xiaoguang said impatiently. It was the first time I saw Xiaoguang so impatient, just about to argue, but Fan Li interrupted, saying: "Just be quiet." When I told Fan Li this, Xu Shaode immediately burst into laughter, because Fan Li seldom lectured people like this.I was sullen and didn't speak, and suddenly a burst of embarrassment spread, and everyone really didn't say a word.The sewer in front was getting wider and wider, and a huge black shadow appeared in front of it, like a whale.The water here has inexplicably turned into sea water, and there are huge monsters in the water. It would not be surprising if whales really appeared here.However, this black shadow is almost floating on the water, so how could the whole body of the whale float on the water.

We were nervous for a while, and gradually slowed down our pace. At the same time, we heard people making noise in front of us, including Xue Datou's voice. It seemed that this guy was really alive, and we didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.We were worried that these desperadoes had guns in their hands and could kill us all from a distance, so we only turned on a flashlight so as not to expose ourselves.There was a gust of wind blowing in the dark distance, and there was something dancing in the sewer in the muddy light. When we opened our eyes hard to see, it was a big golden centipede twisting and turning in the air!

"It's not a centipede, look carefully, it's just a piece of red cloth with a centipede embroidered on it." Xiaoguang said secretly, meaning to let me not make a fuss. "So..." I opened my eyes again suspiciously, and the huge monster in the darkness immediately appeared. It turned out that it was a centipede ship. After everyone found out that the ship in front was a centipede ship, everyone except Xu Shaode was slightly surprised for a while.Speaking of centipede boats, maybe everyone knows this thing. Centipede boats originated from Ganzhou City.This is a very peculiar kind of boat, and people of the older generation have seen it before. It has a mast that is larger than ordinary boats. A piece of red cloth hangs vertically from the top of the mast, and a strip of red cloth is sewn on the red cloth. Forged golden centipede.When the river wind blows, this giant centipede consisting of 18 links twists and turns back and forth, and the thirty-six stinging insects lined up on both sides slowly squirm. The centipede has whip-like tentacles on its head, dancing in the wind, majestic and majestic. Lin Lin, looking from a distance, looks like a celestial insect flying from the sky to the lower world, lifelike and wonderful.

This peculiar centipede boat began to appear in the early Ming Dynasty.At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, farmers from all over the country revolted one after another. A peasant uprising army headed by Zhu Yuanzhang first overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, entered Yingtian, which is Nanjing, and prepared to proclaim the emperor and build a country. , And to fight to the death with Zhu Yuanzhang to rule the world. The battlefield for the decisive battle between the two sides was placed on Poyang Lake. At the beginning of the battle, Chen Youliang was sure of victory because of the tall warship. Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang's command ship was about to be sunk, a centipede boat appeared with a bang, and Zhu Yuanzhang also took the opportunity to run away.After the enemy soldiers boarded the centipede ship, they found a lot of wine. They were exhausted and drank a lot, and they fell drunk within a moment. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly attacked, and they won.This clever plan was planned by Liu Bowen, Zhu Yuanzhang's military adviser. He borrowed the seedling boats moored by the shore of Poyang Lake from the old cousin of Shuixi, Ganzhou, to confuse the opponent, and thus won the battle.

Zhu Yuanzhang is a person who will repay his kindness. After he returned to Yingtian and proclaimed himself the emperor, he issued a decree to exempt the fish fry tax of the old cousin in Shuixi, Ganzhou from the date of his ascension. When the fish fry are on the boat, when the boat arrives in various counties and counties, the local people must send people to welcome them and entertain them warmly.Since then, the fish production in Ganzhou has developed greatly, and the fish fry business has reached Guangdong, Hunan, Fujian and other provinces. Fish fry boats with centipede flags were still seen until the early days of liberation, but later in the "anti-feudal" Under the pressure, I dare not hang up anymore.

A centipede boat appeared in the sewer, which made me believe that it was connected to the sea, but the purpose of the sewer project made me even more confused. What exactly did the people dig up at that time, so that they gave up halfway.We turned off the lights, because there were people on board, and they all turned on the lights, which was like a guiding light for us.The people on board include Xue Datou and the group of reckless men just now, adding up to ten or twenty people.They were arguing on board, and I think there was some internal strife, and this gave us a chance. The centipede ship is so huge that it completely blocks the sewer, and only by climbing on the centipede ship can we continue to move forward.We came under the centipede boat, there was a row of ladders with a lot of blood on them, it seems that the old monk did climb up with the nun.He ran forward so persistently, what was there? We climbed up quietly, and when we climbed onto the boat, the group of people had already wrestled into a ball.A lot of gold, silver and jewels were sprinkled on the boat. When Xu Shaode saw this scene, his eyes lit up immediately. He lay on the ground and frantically picked up these things, laughing happily.Xue Datou was holding a sack in his arms. He looked annoyed when he saw us, but these cultural relic dealers were still among the thieves after all, so guns and the like were not their weapons. "Did they divide the spoils unevenly and kill each other?" I gloated. "Find the silk script quickly, we can't let them run away again." Xiaoguang said to me. Fan Li was not guilty, he just glanced at me, saw that I was silent, and walked into the scuffling crowd with Xiaoguang.This group of traffickers found outsiders and immediately united. Xue Datou was obviously the leader, and the group of traffickers obeyed his command.Xue Datou was very angry when he saw us, but many of his subordinates had already died in his hands, and there were only five people left besides him.We put down these minions at once, Xue Datou saw that the momentum was wrong, immediately knelt down on the ground, trembling: "Don't, don't kill me." "Everyone is a classmate, we have no enmity with you, why should we kill you." I sneered. "You said, didn't you ask us to come to Dalian and take care of us? Why did the school say you were dead, and now you want to harm us?" Xu Shaode was so angry that he interrogated Xue Datou immediately when he had the opportunity. "I owe a large amount of loan sharks, and I have come into contact with a group of people who steal and sell cultural relics, so I... I just want to trick you to come and be my helper, or..." Xue Datou saw that we would not do evil things, so he said Standing up, he said, "I just want to find a scapegoat, so that the school will mistakenly think that we are dead, so that we don't have to pay back the loan sharks." "Do you want us to be your scapegoats!?" I almost lost my temper when I heard this, this guy looked very kind, but I didn't expect his heart to be so dark, it's really unbelievable. "No wonder they said that your head was chopped off on purpose, so that people can't recognize it!" Xu Shaode realized. I thought about it more deeply. Xue Datou must not dare to find a local to be a scapegoat, because it would be easy to be found out, so he found us in Yunnan.Xu Shaode is very fat, even if his head is cut off, others will immediately see that he is not Xue Datou, so Xue Datou must want to kill me and let me be his scapegoat.Fortunately, we arrived so many days late, Xue Datou must have made a long-term plan, so he called us here half a year in advance, who knows that we have been delayed until today. Thinking of this, I felt chills. Could it be that even a good brother can't believe it casually, but I found out that he lied in one place.
