Chapter 11 The Eleventh Round

At dawn, a fishing boat came from the north and moored on the beach. At first glance, this ship is really strange and out of shape. It is a ship, but it looks like a raft. It is a raft, but it looks like a ship. The hull of the boat is square and square, and it is actually nailed with a large piece of wood, even the bark has not been planed.There is a triangular cabin on the board, which looks like a tent or a house. There is only one sail, but it is flat, wide, sturdy and beautiful. It does not match the ship, as if it was snatched. This ship is patchwork and looks weird, but it gives people an indescribable sense of solidity and stability, as if no matter how strong the wind and rain beat it, it will not break up.

A big black man was lying on his back under the sail, his limbs stretched out flat, he looked long and big, he looked like a lazy sleeping tiger. Before the boat touched the shore, the big man turned over and rushed up, shouted like thunder, stretched out his hand, and pulled the thousand-hundred-jin boat to the shallows. When he stood up, he looked as straight as a living iron tower, and he was really "ten feet wide at the waist, three stops wide at the back".From head to toe, it is at least one foot long, and he is wearing a black satin warrior uniform, which is extremely roomy for others, but it is tight and small for him, the trousers can only cover the knees, and the buttons can't even Fully buttoned, it seems that 90% of it is snatched.

Although his figure is scary, but with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a lion nose and a tiger mouth, although he looks stupid, he is also very pleasing. Such a big boat didn't seem to be enough for him to stretch his arms and legs. Once he stood on the shore, he immediately stretched his back to the sky, and the only three buttons he had buttoned were snapped open again, revealing his furry chest like black iron. The rain seemed to have subsided a bit, the big man walked up to the beach step by step, looked around, and muttered in his mouth: "Wu Niang thief, I'm here, why don't those thieves come?" He stretched out his hand to touch his stomach, He lay down on all fours, touched his stomach and said, "I'm hungry, why don't two big pies fall from the sky, so that I can eat enough, so I have the strength to fight."

After lying down for a long time, he seemed to be too hungry to bear it any longer. He turned over and strode aboard the boat. He took out a large piece of half-baked flesh of which he didn't know what kind of meat it was, and three or four more. The steamed bun, which was as hard as iron, was carried in her arms, and murmured: "Wu Niang thief, the more you wait, the more hungry you are, so why not eat tomorrow's dinner, if you are beaten to death today, you will die tomorrow anyway." I can't eat anymore." While talking to himself, he already stuffed his mouth full of meat.

All of a sudden, a wave rolled in, and there seemed to be something colorful in the white foam of the sea, which rolled onto the beach with the wave. The big man touched his head and said: "What is this..." He strode forward, picked it up, and suddenly shouted: "It's amazing, it's amazing, how come Dahai will have a son?" The one who was rolled onto the beach by the waves was a boy in brocade clothes, holding a log tightly in his hands, refusing to let go, his teeth were clenched tightly, his lips were white, he had been in a coma for a long time, and he didn't know whether he was alive or not. die.

I saw the big man yelling wildly: "It's amazing, it's amazing..." he let go and threw the child down, and ran away. But after running for a few steps, he suddenly stopped and murmured: "No, no, son of the sea, how could he be fainted by the sea water, well, this child must have fallen from another boat..." and ran back In the past, he picked up the child, touched his chest, grinned and said: "Not bad, not bad, still a little angry, I can't die." Laying the child on the beach, stretched out his hand and pressed a few times on his back. The child groaned and spat out a few mouthfuls of sea water.

The big man cheered, jumped up for joy, danced, jumped and jumped, and shouted: "Alive! Alive!" He saved someone's life, and he was so happy that he even forgot his hunger. The meat was scattered all over the ground, but he didn't pick it up. Holding the child, he strode up to the beach, patted and touched the small body, and kept calling, "Little boy, you should live if you live!" Open your eyes!" The child finally opened his eyes and looked around, with a look of horror on his face, but he immediately recovered his composure and smiled slightly at the big man.

The big man was overjoyed and said: "You smiled...Little boy, can you speak?" The kid nodded. The big man said: "If you can talk, just say it, what's your name?" The child breathed out and said: "My surname is Fang, and everyone calls me Bao'er." This child is half true, it is Fang Baoer who was blown into the sea by the storm. The big man laughed loudly and said, "Bao'er, Bao'er, it really is a little baby...Look at these little arms and legs, they are about as thick as my fingers." Fang Baoer stared blankly at him, seeming to be very interested in watching him, rolled his eyes, and asked himself: "Brother, what's your name?"

The big man said: "My surname is Niu. My father called me Tie Wa when I was a child, but others always call me a stupid big man. I was annoyed by calling them, so I stuffed them into the ditch." Fang Bao'er couldn't help laughing out loud, she couldn't breathe. For the rest of his life after the catastrophe, although he was still thinking about the lives and deaths of Hu Buchou and Shui Tianji, he thought again: "I am not dead, they are much more capable than me, will they still die?" Not being able to meet them, I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

But he is still young after all, the child's heart can't keep worries, not to mention that when he opened his eyes, he saw such an interesting silly big man, laughed a few times, and couldn't help putting aside his worries. Niu Tiewa seemed to think of something suddenly, and said again: "Where is your father? You are not big, and you are not afraid of making your family poor. What are you doing alone?" Fang Bao'er sighed, shook his head, and suddenly laughed again: "Are you afraid that your family will be poor, so you ran out alone?" Niu Tiewa laughed and said, "Boy, you are so smart, you can guess right."

After a while, he thought of something again, opened his mouth and smiled and said, "You can't find a father, and I can't give birth to a son, so you might as well be my son!" Fang Baoer was startled, blinked his eyes, and said, "Do you have a wife?" Niu Tiewa giggled and said, "My wife is still in her mother's womb." Fang Baoer said: "You don't even have a wife, but you want to adopt your son, isn't it ridiculous?" Niu Tiewa said: "Could it be that you have a wife?" Fang Baoer said: "Ashamed, ashamed, there is only one." Niu Tiewa's eyes widened, looked at him up and down for a while, shook her head and sighed: "I never thought you would marry a wife at such a young age, you are really capable." Fang Baoer said: "Speaking of ability, I am much older than you." Niu Tiewa sighed and said, "In this case, let's be brothers!" Fang Baoer said: "Okay, I am the elder brother and you are the younger brother." Niu Tiewa opened her mouth wide, unable to close her smile. Fang Bao'er said: "Be careful, Mo Xiao broke his intestines, and if you want me to slit open your stomach and sew it up piece by piece, it will be very troublesome." Niu Tiewa was taken aback for a moment, and immediately covered her stomach with both hands, she didn't dare to laugh any more, but she still gasped and said, "You are my little brother, I think you are too small, and you still want to be my big brother?" Fang Baoer said: "Have you ever heard that the ancients said that learning has no size, and those who are capable are teachers?" Niu Tiewa said: "Don't be polite, I don't understand." Fang Baoer said: "This sentence means that no matter how old you are, as long as you have a lot of knowledge, you can be a master with a little knowledge. I am more knowledgeable than you, and my ability is better than you. If I don't be your master, I will give you a lot." Save face, this big brother, you must let me do it." Niu Tiewa stroked her head, and said in a low voice: "The words of the ancients are probably not wrong, but... But I can kill you with one punch, and I am really not convinced to make you a big brother." Fang Baoer said: "Do you only think that you are stronger than me?" Niu Tiewa laughed and said: "Up until now, I have never seen anyone stronger than me; look..." He punched the ground, and he really punched a bunker more than a foot deep. Fang Baoer said: "Well, it's not too bad... You grab another handful of sand, and I'll see if you can throw this sand into the sea?" Niu Tiewa laughed and said, "Ten handfuls of sand are fine." Sure enough, he grabbed a handful of sand and threw it out with all his strength, but when the sand was blown by the sea wind, most of it was blown back by the wind, blowing it hard. baby face.Niu Tiewa rubbed her eyes with both hands, stayed for a while, and murmured: "It's weird!" Fang Baoer said: "Look at me." Niu Tiewa wondered, "You...you can do it?" Fang Bao'er smiled and said, "It's no use being so close, I'll go farther." He took a few strides, walked to a sandy beach that was already wet by sea water, leaned over and grabbed a handful of wet sand, kneaded it into a ball, He yelled softly: "Look!" With a swing of his arm, the sand sticks into a ball, and it is not blown away by the wind until several feet away, but it is already on the sea surface, and the sand really falls into the sea water. Niu Tiewa was dumbfounded, he opened his mouth wide but couldn't close it. Fang Baoer smiled and said, "Are you convinced?" Niu Tiewa sighed, "I've taken it." Fang Baoer said: "Since you are convinced, why don't you pay homage to elder brother." Niu Tiewa said: "Elder... elder brother is on top, I will be worshiped by younger brother." Sure enough, he knelt on the ground and knocked on his head.Fang Bao'er felt a little embarrassed, and bowed back a few times.The two became brothers, and Niu Tiewa served Fang Bao'er extremely thoughtfully, picked up the dried meat buns, gave them to Bao'er to eat, and brought a big stone over, asking Bao'er to sit down. After a while, Niu Tiewa suddenly asked: "Brother, can the intestines in your stomach really break with laughter?" He seemed to have been thinking hard for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking. Fang Bao'er said seriously: "If you always laugh at others, your intestines will be broken one day; if you really laugh, it's okay." Niu Tiewa smiled and said: "Now I can rest assured, otherwise I will worry about my intestines breaking all day long, and I dare not laugh. How can I survive that day?" Fang Baoer said: "Do you have to laugh?" Niu Tiewa said: "I laugh 30 times a day, and laugh 300 times a day before I have strength..." Suddenly he jumped up and stared at the sea. Fang Baoer couldn't help but also followed him to look at the sun.I saw a sailboat approaching through the wind, and the hull seemed a little damaged. It must have been during the storm last night. Although the boat had already found shelter from the wind, it was still damaged.You must know that the bay is not suitable for docking boats, and it happened to be the eye of the storm last night. If the five-color sailboat was moored here last night, it must not be blown away by the wind. Niu Tiewa murmured: "Here we come..." Fang Baoer said: "Do you recognize the people on this boat?" Niu Tiewa said: "Wu Niang thief, who recognizes him? The people on this boat are all robbers. Seeing that I am so poor that I have nothing to eat, they also want to drag me into the gang. But although I, Niu Tiewa, are poor, my bones are hard and I died of starvation. I don’t want to be robbers...just..." He grinned: "I want to steal things from robbers, as long as they are ordered, they will be beaten up by me, and they will steal something more or less." Fang Baoer smiled and said, "You must have snatched this suit from you too?" Niu Tiewa said: "These clothes, beef, steamed buns, and the sails on the boat were all snatched, which made the thieves mad, and invited me here today to fight." Fang Baoer said: "They asked you out, and you came?" Niu Tiewa stared and said, "Naturally, if you don't come, it's a pustule?" Fang Bao'er sighed: "They can't catch you, so they invited you here, so they are naturally well prepared. They are so many, don't they want to beat you to death?" Niu Tiewa thought for a while, and said: "You have to come if you are killed!" I saw that the boat had landed, and more than 20 big men jumped out of the boat with various weapons such as flower guns, harpoons, water thorns, and ghost knives. Although these people are numerous and powerful, they still seem to be a little afraid of Niu Tiewa, they just yell and curse from a distance, and dare not rush directly. The first one shouted: "Stupid boy, if you surrender obediently today, that's fine, otherwise the uncle will chop you into eight pieces." Niu Tiewa scolded angrily: "Put your mother's poor fart on!" Turning her head, she said, "Brother, sit here and wait for me to fight these thieves." Fang Baoer sighed: "If you want to fight, go ahead and be careful!" Niu Tiewa said: "It's okay." He took off his clothes with his backhand, naked from the upper body, grabbed a big stone weighing more than a hundred catties, and ran over at a leisurely pace. When the group of thieves saw him rushing, they didn't dare to neglect him, and with a roar, they formed a formation. A shaggy-headed man held a ghost-head knife, shouted "Wow", rushed over first, and slashed at Niu Tiewa! Niu Tiewa scolded: "Wu Niang thief!" With one hand raised, he greeted the stone, and only heard a "bang", the big man was shocked so hard that his mouth was split open, and the steel knife was also thrown into the air by the shock .Niu Tiewa laughed and said, "Stinky tofu!" Suddenly there was a slanted thrust of the flower spear, and Niu Tiewa couldn't stop it in a hurry. She shook her wrist and threw the boulder straight, and with her backhand, she caught the flower gun. But hearing the whistling of the wind, the boulder originally weighed more than a hundred catties, plus the force of the throw, the castration was astonishing, the group of thieves screamed in surprise and ran away in all directions. Niu Tiewa shook her wrist, and snatched the flower gun.Seeing the group of thieves fleeing in a panic, Niu Tiewa couldn't help feeling proud, and said with a big grin, "Stinky eggs, go and hug the baby, what kind of bird stand?" Life, the momentum is terrifying, if anyone is swept away by his gun, he will lose half of his life if he is not dead! The group of thieves dare not enter, as soon as Niu Tiewa passed by, the group of thieves immediately fled in all directions.Niu Tiewa was even more proud, cursing stinky tofu and rotten eggs in his mouth. A burly man in black at the head shouted: "Although this idiot has sharp eyesight and quick hands, he has some strength, but he doesn't know martial arts at all. Follow our method and we will definitely take him down. Don't be afraid of him!" The group of thieves responded loudly, and someone shouted: "Kill him quickly, let's eat beef." Niu Tiewa yelled angrily, and rushed forward with a gun, but the gang of thieves still fled far away.Although Niu Tiewa's footsteps are big, but these big guys can do light work, Niu Tiewa ran around, but couldn't catch up with them.He was tired from running, so he wanted to take a rest, but as soon as the Huaqiang stopped, other people with swords, guns and harpoons rushed over without thinking. After all, Niu Tiewa is not made of iron, so how can she support her? In less than half an hour, Niu Tiewa was already sweating profusely, panting like a cow, and accidentally got a fork on her left thigh, piercing three bloody holes. The group of thieves laughed and said: "It seems that the braised beef will soon be imported." The more furious Niu Tiewa is, the faster his strength makes him, the harder it is to last. All of a sudden, he yelled: "Stop!" The group of thieves couldn't help being stunned by his thunderous shout. The big man in black said: "Are you convinced?" Unexpectedly, Niu Tiewa turned around and ran away when everyone was stunned, and shouted in his mouth: "Smelly thieves, if you are not afraid of my ambush, come after me!" The group of thieves never dreamed that this foolish boy could cheat, and they dared not chase after him. The big man in black said: "Anyway, he can't escape, let's see what other tricks he can do?" Niu Tiewa ran to Bao'er, turned over and bowed down. Fang Bao'er was already terrified at the sight, and whispered at this moment: "What? Let's run!" Niu Tiewa gasped and said, "You can't run if you run, but you can't beat him if you beat him. It seems that Tiewa will inevitably be beaten to death by the thieves today..." Speaking of this, tears suddenly flowed from his eyes, and he lowered his head and said: "Tie Wa sworn brotherhood with eldest brother, and there is nothing to honor elder brother, only the boat is still strong, and there are still a few catties of beef on board. Baby will send the eldest brother to the boat first, and then go desperately with the thieves." Fang Bao'er had already heard tears welling up in her eyes.Although he is young, his loyalty is not as good as later generations, and he said loudly: "No, since you and I are brothers, how can I see you die, I will not live if you die!" Niu Tiewa thought for a while, then suddenly shook her head and said, "No, no, elder brother has married a wife. If elder brother dies, sister-in-law must be a widow?" Fang Baoer was both amused and moved when he heard it, wiped away his tears, forced a smile and said, "Don't be afraid, we won't die." Although he is comforting others, why is he not afraid in his heart? Who would have thought that Niu Tiewa would suddenly become overjoyed after hearing this, jump up a somersault, and laughed loudly: "That's right, big brother is more capable than me, so there must be a way." Fang Bao'er suddenly had an idea, and she really thought of a way.Although I don't know if this method is useful, but at this moment, I can only bite the bullet and try it, and immediately said loudly: "You wait, I will send these thieves away." He stood up and walked away with big strides past. The gang of thieves are all seven-foot men, but Fang Baoer's height is less than five feet, and he has no strength to restrain a chicken. But Niu Tiewa was full of confidence in him, and shouted loudly: "Smelly thieves, my elder brother is here, you wait to die!" The group of thieves laughed loudly and said, "Is this brat your elder brother? Haha, come here, it's no wonder the grandpa didn't kick out your egg yolk." Fang Baoer stood in the middle of this group of wolves and tigers, poor gods and evil spirits. He was really panicked and his feet were a little weak, but he didn't take a step back. They must all be Shou Tianqi's subordinates?" The group of thieves glanced at each other, and they couldn't help showing surprise on their faces. The big man in black said sharply: "How do you know our name, you brat?" When Fang Baoer heard that they were indeed subordinates of the "Purple Bearded Dragon", he was secretly relieved, and said with a sneer: "The Purple Bearded Dragon has strict discipline, and I never imagined that there are shameless subordinates like you who bully the few with the more, and bully the single Guest! Have you all forgotten how the partner who robbed the single guest died?" After all, he was young and eloquent. But the gang of thieves were even more astonished when they heard it, because the purple bearded dragon punished the leader of the white-clothed man's boat on the coast of the East China Sea according to the rules of the door, it is already known all over the world, and the status of the gang of thieves here is at a high level. Under the leader, he had already cited this matter as a warning, and after listening to Bao'er's words, he couldn't help feeling uneasy in secret.The big man in black smiled and said: "What is the origin of the kid? Can you tell me?" His tone was already gentle, but Fang Baoer spoke more fiercely, sneering: "You are not worthy to ask me about my origin, go ask Shou Tianqi to talk." A big man with thick eyebrows kept his gaze fixed on Bao'er's face all the time, at this moment he suddenly let out a soft chuckle, and blurted out: "I remembered." The group of thieves were feeling uneasy, and when they heard the whisper, they all leaned over their heads and whispered: "Did you remember the origin of this brat?" The thick-browed man said: "This... this little friend is on the five-color sailboat." The group of thieves suddenly changed their colors, and said in unison: "Really? You must not make a mistake." The thick-browed man said: "It can't be wrong. That day when Zi Yihou was fighting the white-clothed man, I saw him and Zi Yihou talking from a distance." In the eyes of the group of thieves, the identity of a person who can talk to Zi Yihou is really important.The group of thieves looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, everyone's expression changed drastically, and it was unknown who would turn over and bow first, how could the others dare to neglect, the ground was kneeling in the blink of an eye. The big man in black bowed to the tunnel: "The little people don't know your background, so it's very offending, but I hope that your excellency will not remember the villain's fault, and spare the little people." Even Bao'er was a little surprised by this, because he didn't know that the status of the people in the "five-color sailboat" was so noble in the eyes of these desperadoes. Niu Tiewa was stunned when she saw that he said a few words in the past but didn't make a move, and that the group of big men, who couldn't even beat her, were submissive to him and knelt all over the ground. He laughed loudly and said, "If you have the skills, if you have the skills, the eldest brother has the skills." Fang Baoer rolled her eyes and said: "Today's matter is all right, but if you meet my brother in the future, what will you do?" The group of thieves said loudly: "In the future, if the villains see Uncle Niu, they will be respectful. Even if Uncle Niu hits us, we dare not fight back." Niu Tiewa scolded with straight eyes: "Wu Niang thief, if you don't fight back, will Uncle Niu still fight? What kind of nonsense is this?" The group of thieves said: "Yes, Master Niu is right." Fang Bao'er was secretly amused when she heard it, but she put on a serious face and said: "If you bully the younger ones with more in the future, I will have to ask Shou Tianqi for clarification!" The big man in black said repeatedly: "Yes, the villains dare not again." After a while, he said again: "I don't know what else the uncle ordered?" Fang Baoer said: "No..." Before the words were finished, Niu Tiewa said loudly: "There are some, and there are orders." The big man in black said: "But please tell me, all the little people will obey." Niu Tiewa laughed and said: "Send some of the beef buns you picked up from your boat, and I'll treat my elder brother to a good meal." The big man in black said: "Yes!" As expected, the heroes rushed to the boat, brought a large basket full of beef to eat, and respectfully sent it down. Niu Tiewa stared, and said: "The beef is here, why don't you leave? Could it be that you want to eat another portion?" Fang Baoer almost laughed out loud. Hearing these words, Qunhao felt as if he had been pardoned, and he left in a blink of an eye. Niu Tiewa laughed and said: "Good beef, good steamed buns... I don't want to not only not die today, but to have a good meal after getting it." The two of them really ate heartily that day.Niu Tiewa fell down and immediately fell asleep, even if others carried him and threw him into the sea, he didn't know it at all. Although Fang Bao'er was also extremely tired, but after thinking about it, she couldn't sleep. In the early morning of the second day, Niu Tiewa ate another big meal, and said: "Big brother has nowhere to go, so why not wander around the sea with my little brother and me, sometimes we can't help eating less, but no one controls us, and no one gives us food." With Qi Shou, you can sleep all day long, but you can feel free and unrestrained.” Fang Bao'er smiled wryly and said, "It would be nice if I were as carefree as you are." Niu Tiewa wondered, "Could it be that there's something else that big brother can't do?" Fang Baoer sighed and said, "Yes." Niu Tiewa lowered her head suddenly, and said, "Ru—so, the elder brother is going to leave the younger brother behind?" He is more than twice as big as Fang Baoer, but at this moment he speaks like a wronged child , but the words are true and full of sadness. Fang Bao'er didn't feel a little sad, and forced a smile: "I also don't want to leave you, but... well, I'm done, I will come to find you in the future." Niu Tiewa lowered her head and said, "I don't know where brother is going?" Fang Bao'er said: "I don't know where I'm going, I just have to find someone, but I don't know exactly where that person is at the moment." Niu Tiewa thought for a long time, then suddenly raised her head, and said: "Since that's the case, I will send my elder brother off to the Yangtze River. There are a few boatmen I know, and I will ask them to send my elder brother to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Brother, not only is it much easier to travel, but it is also much more convenient to find people." He still didn't dare to raise his head, it turned out that the sun was full of tears and he didn't dare to be seen by others. Fang Bao'er did not expect that this iron bull-like man would be so affectionate. Although he met him by chance, he was really no more than a brother. For a moment, Fang Bao'er couldn't help feeling sad and happy at the same time, and the two of them got into the square wooden boat, set up the sails, and sailed straight to the mouth of the Yangtze River. Although there is sediment outside Wusongkou, since the center of cultural relics moved from both sides of the Yellow River to the north and south of the Yangtze River, this place has become more and more prosperous. Ships come and go all day long, especially the residents around Chongming Island. Before sunrise, but seeing the fishing fires all over the river shining like stars, at dusk, the sails return and the fishermen sing in harmony. This scene is even more intoxicating. Fang Bao'er and Niu Tiewa entered the Yangtze River and found a shoal to moor. Niu Tiewa was going to find the acquainted boatman and take Bao'er for a ride. But Bao'er said, "I think it's better to walk." Niu Tiewa said loudly, "Why?" Fang Bao'er sighed: "The person I'm looking for had his address, but he was so weird that he didn't write down his address clearly, but asked someone to do riddles. I guessed and guessed, but I couldn't figure it out. What exactly is that place, maybe it's on the left bank, I don't know, if I take a boat, it will be more comfortable, but if I miss that place, wouldn't it be fatal?" Niu Tiewa's eyes widened, and she said: "But... but elder brother is alone, and has no money, walking on the shore, do you have to... starve?" Fang Baoer forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, big brother has a lot of skills." Niu Tiewa rejoiced and said: "Yes, elder brother is much more capable than Tie Wa, but eats much less than Tie Wa. Tie Wa is not hungry, so will elder brother still be hungry?" The rest of the food was brought out from the cabin, and he grinned and said, "These belong to the elder brother." Fang Baoer was stunned for a moment, and said, "Who said it belonged to Big Brother? It belonged to Tie Wa!" Niu Tiewa shook her head and said, "It belongs to elder brother, elder brother will take it away." Fang Baoer said: "You keep it." Niu Tiewa said anxiously: "If the eldest brother doesn't take it away, Tiewa will...will..." But he couldn't tell what was going to happen. Fang Bao'er turned her eyes and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, 'Blessings should be shared', since there is delicious food here, we should all eat it together, and no one should take it away, okay?" Niu Tiewa was overjoyed and said, "Okay, okay, great." The two began to eat and drink. Niu Tiewa kept his hands and mouth, eating happily, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, it's a pity that there are not many left..." Suddenly stopped his hands, stopped talking, and shouted. Shouted: "No, no, this is too unfair." Fang Baoer said: "Why is it unfair?" Niu Tiewa said: "I eat more, brother eats less, so I won't eat." Fang Baoer held back her sadness, held the remaining piece of beef in her arms, and said with a forced smile, "Okay, I'll take this piece, this... let's go, I should... have to go too." Niu Tiewa was stunned for a while, then slowly stood up, bowed her head and said, "Brother, you...you don't forget Tie... baby..." Suddenly he took a big step, turned around and ran out, kicking the The boat kicked off shore.The wind sent the boat sailing, and his face could not be seen clearly in a blink of an eye. Fang Baoer stared blankly at the boat, and after an unknown amount of time, she suddenly shouted: "Tie baby... Tie baby... I will never forget you." At this time, Niu Tiewa could no longer hear, and Bao'er's face was already full of tears. Although he didn't know how many people loved him in his life, they were all just the kindness of the elders. Until now, he had only tasted the taste of friendship.But his faithful friend had left.Although Fang Bao'er had already made up her mind to be a tough guy, she couldn't help crying at this moment. He found a stone and sat down slowly, his mind was full of thoughts and he didn't know what it was like.This is also the first time he began to understand the ups and downs of life and the complexity of life.Thinking of the comfort of lying in the shade of a tree and reading at that time, although the distance is only dozens of days, it seems like a world away. At that time, he wished that he could experience and understand more about life, but now he realizes that it is better to know less about life. However, the time that has passed can never be returned, and he suddenly remembered two sentences in the "Preface to the Poems of the Golden Valley Garden" written by Shi Chong: "I feel that life is immortal, and fear that withering will never last." At Bao'er's age, he shouldn't have any feelings for these two sentences, but at this moment, after thinking about them, and carefully chewing on the taste of these two sentences, he really felt that his thoughts were like strands of sadness, which could not be stopped. After a long, long time, he suddenly heard a shout like thunder coming from the sea behind him. Bao'er was startled, and turned around to look, but saw that Niu Tiewa's boat had sailed back. Before reaching the shore, Niu Tiewa jumped into the water, dragged the boat to the shore, and ran forward barefoot. Fang Baoer was surprised, delighted and surprised, and said, "You... what are you doing back here?" Niu Tiewa lowered her head, and said in a low voice: "Eldest brother is more capable than Tie Wa, but... Niu Tiewa is really worried about letting elder brother walk alone, no matter what, he has to accompany elder brother." Fang Bao'er felt a rush of blood in her heart, her throat was choked up, and it was difficult to speak. Niu Tiewa said: "Elder brother, are you blaming me? If elder brother finds it inconvenient for younger brothers to go with him, I can follow from afar." Fang Baoer suddenly jumped up, hugged him around his neck, and shouted, "Why should I blame you? It would be great to have you by my side!" Niu Tiewa's eyes were full of tears, but the corners of her mouth were full of smiles, and said in a trembling voice: "Really...really...really? I'm so happy...so happy..." The two embraced each other, although their bodies were very different in size, they contained the same innocence, and even the morning sun seemed to be very happy, showing their faces from the clouds. The two found some wild vegetables and wood, piled them on the boat, and loaded a bucket full of clean water, but forgot that they had already entered the river at this moment, and from then on, they would never worry about water shortage again. Some of the boatmen on the river have been very familiar with Niu Tiewa for a long time, and they greeted each other far away from the boat. Someone else said with a smile: "Tie baby, you are back again, our harvest this year is not enough." Another person asked, "Who is that little brother who came with you?" Niu Tiewa said loudly, "It's my elder brother." Everyone who listened was stunned for a while, and then couldn't help laughing.If it is said that Fang Baoer is Niu Tiewa's eldest brother, no one can believe it. Niu Tiewa also grinned widely, laughing with them.In the evening, the two of them had already traveled a certain distance, and they stayed at the west end of Chongming Island to find a place to rest. Suddenly someone shouted from a distance: "Brother, wait for me..." The voice is clear and pleasant, it is actually a woman's accent. Fang Baoer said: "I don't want someone to call you big brother." Turning his head and looking around, he saw a shuttle-shaped fast boat rushing towards him like an arrow, and the oarsman on board was a young girl in Tsing Yi with bright eyes and bright teeth, and a pleasant smile. Her sleeves were rolled up high, revealing the arms of Shuanghuang Saixue, and two jade bracelets on her jade wrists, which made a series of bell-like sounds. Niu Tiewa turned around and took a look, with a look of ecstasy immediately on her face, ran to the stern of the boat, opened her arms and shouted loudly: "Third sister, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!" The girl in Tsing Yi Bai Shengsheng had beads of sweat on her face, but the speed of rowing was really not slow, and she caught up in a short while. Niu Tiewa stretched out her hand, lifted her up like a bird, hugged her tightly in her arms, and said loudly, "Quickly tell me, how did you get here?" The girl in Tsing Yi looked at him up and down for a while, then said with a smile: "Brother, you have grown stronger...... Who is this little brother?" She didn't answer the question, Niu Tiewa laughed and said: "What little brother, he is my elder brother, that is your elder brother, you have to remember!" The girl in Tsing Yi widened her eyes and said in surprise, "Big...Brother?" Niu Tiewa said: "My elder brother is very capable...Elder brother, this is my sister, her name is Niu Tielan, and she is much smarter than me." Niu Tielan stared at Bao'er, and said, "You...you are my elder brother's elder brother?" Suddenly she giggled coquettishly, almost out of breath. Niu Tiewa said: "What are you laughing at? Hurry up and greet your elder brother!" Niu Tielan walked up to Bao'er with a charming smile, trying to hold back her laughter but couldn't help it, and said, "You...you really want me to call you big brother?" Before Fang Baoer could speak, Niu Tiewa said loudly, "Of course I will!" Niu Tielan smiled and said: "Okay, big brother... little big brother..." Fang Baoer said: "Do you think I'm too young?" Niu Tielan said: "If I say no, I'm lying to you." Fang Baoer rolled her eyes and said, "You are young and a girl, why did you sneak out by yourself and make your parents anxious?" Niu Tielan paused for a while, and wondered: "How do you know that I'm secretly..." Suddenly, she realized that she had slipped her tongue, and quickly put back the second half of the sentence. Fang Baoer said with a straight face: "If you didn't sneak out, your elder brother asked you why you came here just now, why didn't you come back?" Niu Tielan's laughter stopped completely, and she looked at Bao'er in surprise, obviously wondering how could he be so keen in observation and analysis so fine at such a young age? Niu Tiewa shouted loudly: "Third sister, did you really sneak out?" Niu Tielan nodded. Niu Tiewa said angrily: "Okay, a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl is so bold, isn't she afraid that bad guys will eat you?" Niu Tielan said: "Who is the child of twelve or thirteen years old?" Niu Tiewa said: "Nonsense, aren't you twelve or thirteen years old? I clearly remember that I celebrated your twelfth birthday a few days before I left." Niu Tielan broke her face and said with a smile: "That was five years ago, don't they grow up forever? Or twelve years old?" Niu Tiewa suddenly realized, and said, "That's right, I've been away for five years." Niu Tielan said: "Ever since the eldest brother left, the second brother married his sister-in-law." Niu Tiewa was overjoyed and said, "Really? Is the second child married?" Niu Tielan nodded and said: "That's right, that second sister-in-law is beautiful and smart, I really can't figure out how she could marry the second brother." Niu Tiewa stared and said, "What's wrong with the second child? Is he not worthy of others?" Niu Tielan smiled and said: "Second brother is a bit lucky, but..." suddenly sighed: "It's just that although the second sister-in-law is smart and beautiful, she is too powerful." Niu Tiewa said: "How powerful?" Niu Tielan said: "Since the second sister-in-law came in, our family is different from before. Although we were poor before, we lived happily. Later... Later, the second sister-in-law brought a sum of money, our family is not the same as before. So poor, but...but I would rather live the same poor life as before." Niu Tiewa said: "She bullied you?" Niu Tielan shook her head, nodded again, her eye circles were also red, and said quietly: "It's okay if she bullies me, but for Second Brother, she also...she also..." Niu Tiewa said angrily: "Could it be that she can't bully the second child too?" Niu Tielan lowered her head and did not speak for a long time. Niu Tiewa shouted: "Say it!" 牛铁兰沉吟半晌，望了望宝儿，终于缓缓道：“她……她没有嫁给二哥前，有……有很多朋友常常来找她……” 牛铁娃瞪眼道：“朋友找她，又有何妨？她既喜欢朋友，想必是个慷慨好义的女子，你便当分外尊敬于她才是。” 牛铁兰叹道：“但……但她那些朋友都是男的……” 牛铁娃大声道：“男的有何妨，难道男人就不能做朋友了么？嘿嘿，你这孩子真是古怪！” 牛铁兰咬了咬嘴唇，轻轻顿足道：“大哥自己才古怪哩！出嫁后的女子，就……就不能随意结交朋友了，大哥莫非连这都不知道？” 牛铁娃喃喃道：“为什么？出嫁的女子就不能交朋友？”瞧了宝儿一眼：道：“大哥，我三妹说的道理对吗？” 方宝儿道：“完全对的。” 牛铁娃想了想，大声道：“既是如此，你二哥便该好生教训她才是，不准她日后再胡乱结交男朋友。” 牛铁兰叹了口气道：“二哥的脾气，大哥莫非还不知道不成？他对什么人都不敢得罪，对二嫂更是……更是服服贴贴，只要二嫂远远咳嗽一声，二哥无论在做什么，都得抛下手里事赶过去。” 牛铁娃道：“爹爹总该管管她。” 牛铁兰叹道：“就连爹爹和妈妈都有些怕她，无论她闹成什么模样，爹爹、妈妈也都不敢说话，只有……只有我……” 牛铁娃道：“你怎么？” 牛铁兰大声道：“我绝不怕她，看不顺眼时，就暗地跟她作对，想尽各种办法，叫她多多少少每天都要吃些苦。” 牛铁娃突然大笑起来，道：“我那时跟你吵架时也常在暗中被你害得惨了，那女子想必更吃不消……不知她如何报仇？” 牛铁兰道：“她表面丝毫不动声色，但只要我只有一个人时她就跑过来和我厮打。” 牛铁娃道：“牛铁娃的妹子，难道还打不过别人？” 牛铁兰叹道：“她个子虽小，出手可真快，力气又大，我被她打得连还手都无法还手。” 牛铁娃怒道：“老二可知道？” 牛铁兰垂下了头，道：“她出手又阴又狠，虽然打得我浑身疼得要死，但却全打在别人看不出的地方，连……连二哥都不知道。” 牛铁娃气得脸都红了，大骂道：“该死，该死！” 牛铁兰道：“我受不了她的气，只有逃出来。” 方宝儿忽然插口道：“你那二嫂倒真是个怪人。听你说来，她身手既是那样，莫非她居然会些武功不成？” 牛铁兰道：“听说她是华山派的弟子。” 方宝儿不禁皱起了眉，暗道：“华山弟子，人又聪明漂亮，怎会嫁给个贫家之淳朴少年？这其中必然有些古怪。”
