Chapter 254 Boarding the Ship
When we got together again, we were overjoyed and it was obvious that we had gained a lot. Li Fengzhi kept waving his sword and mumbling words, as if he was memorizing the insights he gained from practicing. But when the two of them saw how Yang Yuyao arranged the little girl, they fell into silence together.
"Yu Yao, let me hold her." Li Fengzhi, who had traveled with Yang Yuyao for so many days and knew that Yang Yuyao didn't like to have active contact with others, volunteered. It always seemed a little weird for Yang Yuyao to let the little girl lie down and float next to him.
"Okay." Yang Yuyao looked at Zhengxin and agreed after seeing that he had no objection. So it was almost the same as when he came. Yang Yuyao carried Li Fengzhi flying with his sword, and Zhengxin followed behind with the help of Yang Yuyao's talisman. . It's just that the chubby little girl was changed from being held by Zhengxin to being held by Li Fengzhi.
On the way back, they occasionally encountered one or two hidden ants that had slipped through the net and were also rushing towards the entrance and exit. Yang Yuyao immediately threw down two sword lights and sent them away. Then in one go, he flew out of the ant nest entrance. Seeing Yang Yuyao and Li Fengzhi coming out, Zhu Molan and You Shuangjiang, who were guarding outside, looked relieved. However, when they saw the girl in Li Fengzhi's arms and Zhengxin who followed him out, their eyes showed curiosity and surprise again.
"This is Zhengxin, the one who asked us for a quarter of the salt-baked chicken before. This little girl is a resident nearby. She was also dragged in by the hidden ant, and happened to be bumped into by Zhengxin. Then Zhengxin I met Feng Zhi and protected him for a while until I found them." Yang Yuyao briefly explained the identity of these two people and the reason why they came out together, and then asked if any hidden ants had escaped.
"Three of them escaped, but I was prepared and solved them all." Zhu Molan said, and removed the combing technique to expel mortals. Then, there was an old lady followed by two maid-looking women hurriedly came towards them.
"Female donor, are you looking for your granddaughter?" Zhengxin asked when he saw the old woman who had donated some food to him not long ago, clasping her hands and saluting.
"Exactly. I wonder if you, great monk, can see my granddaughter? She is wearing a..."
"Grandma!" The old lady's words were interrupted by the cry of the girl who woke up after Yang Yuyao lifted the spell. Then the girl who was put on the ground by Li Fengzhi ran towards her grandma.
"Qian'er, where did you go, this little girl, but you made this old lady like me so anxious!" The old lady scolded her heartily.
"I'm with the big brothers." The little girl was holding one hand by the old woman, and raised her other hand to point at Yang Yuyao and Li Fengzhi.
"Hey!" The old woman who recognized Yang Yuyao and the others as monks hurriedly knelt down with the support of the two maids, and pulled the little girl to kneel down with her. "Excuse me, the immortal masters, to take care of my granddaughter! Quick, Qian'er, thank the two immortal masters!"
"No, thank you more for this honest monk." Before these mortals knelt down, Yang Yuyao pretended to take a few steps back, moved behind Li Fengzhi, and distanced himself from these four people. . He spoke for Zhengxin. Since he was not sure whether Zhengxin's level could be called a mage, Yang Yuyao thought about it and decided not to call him a mage.
"Thanks to him, he happened to see the little girl being dragged away by the monster, and rushed to the rescue without any thought of his own life. The little girl was able to return safely." Most mortals can't tell the difference between spiritual beasts and monsters. If the monks call them as they are, they will definitely be confused about calling them spiritual beasts. How could this seemingly good being do evil? In order not to bother to explain, Yang Yuyao didn't explain it clearly.
Although Yang Yuyao's words were extremely vague, the old lady understood that Yang Yuyao meant that her granddaughter was dragged away by a monster, and the upright monk rushed to the rescue and saved her granddaughter's life. So the old lady immediately saluted Zhengxin and thanked her. Zhengxin also clasped his hands together again and bent down to return the favor.
After bidding farewell to the old woman and her granddaughter, they set off again. Coincidentally, Zhengxin was on the same road as them, so they traveled together for a while. Zhengxin was a very rare monk. Even Zhu Molan looked at him a few times, but no one asked him which temple he came from and why he didn't just eat vegetarian food like other monks.
However, they didn't stay together for too long. To them, they were still strangers who met by chance, and they had nothing to talk about. After arriving at Xijiang, they wanted to cross the river and continue southward, while Zhengxin wanted to go in another direction, so they said goodbye.
Li Fengzhi and You Shuangjiang still have some psychological shadow over the encounter with a black dragon when crossing the water. Although they had been hiding in Zhu Molan's magical vessel that time and were not injured, they learned that they needed to cross the water. Still a little uneasy. However, this time when crossing the river, Zhu Molan did not take out her magical weapon. Instead, she found a passenger boat specially designed to carry passengers across the river and took the boat across.
This passenger ship is not small in size, and there are special guest rooms for guests to rest. After all, this river is not ordinary wide, and even crossing it will take a whole day. The dock where they boarded the ship and where they were going were not directly across. There was no dock at the shortest distance across the river. Instead, they had to walk about five hundred miles downstream to reach a place called Hwaseong. There will be a dock. Because of this, guests need to spend more than a whole day on the passenger ship, but this is already the fastest mode of transportation for mortals.
In order to provide a relatively comfortable boat ride and accommodate guests with different needs, this passenger ship has several fares at different price points. The cheapest fare is to stay in a cabin without windows. If you feel sleepy overnight, you can only make do with sitting. The medium-priced tickets provide a large store. Different from the inn, the medium-priced tickets are located on the highest floor of the three-story building above the hull. There are two large rooms in total, and the layout of the two rooms is basically the same.
A longitudinal walkway was left in the room as big as a classroom, and a long platform was built with wooden boards on both sides, which was used as a bed for sleeping. Bedding and other onboard supplies are not provided here and passengers need to bring their own. There is space under each bed, and you can place your luggage inside. Of course, many guests don't bring any bedding, so they usually find two robes and spread them on the wooden board, use the clothes packages as pillows, and just make do with it.
The best rooms on the passenger ship are located on the first floor. They are all single rooms, with a room for servants to rest, and there is a restaurant next to it that provides meals. The price of this room is naturally the highest, and the quantity is very small. Since Yang Yuyao and the others decided to take a boat at the last minute, even if they could afford such a room, there were no vacancies, so they chose the second floor as the next best option. double room.
Perhaps because it was on a ship, each of the three floors was not high. Yang Yuyao estimated that the height from floor to ceiling was about two meters. The floor height on the third floor is shorter. The second floor is almost the same as the first floor, but to be honest, the height of two meters and two meters would be a bit depressing for a person of his height to stand for a long time. If someone was taller than him, it would probably be more uncomfortable. Perhaps that's why most of the staff on the boat, whether they are boatmen or service staff greeting guests, are not tall. Even for men, they are generally 1.65 meters tall.
The double room on the second floor looks a bit like a mini-exquisite version of the Datong Shop on the third floor. There is also an aisle in the middle with beds on both sides. To be precise, it is not placed, but like the Datong shop on the third floor, it is fixed on the boat. It's just that these two beds are about the same size as normal single beds, and they are also equipped with bedding and curtains. This makes the two beds look like common canopy beds, just without as many elaborate carvings and placed directly against the wall.
At the end of the walkway, there is a platform made of narrow wooden boards located under the window sill, extending to both sides and connected to the baffle at the end of the bed. It looks like the bar of a bar. It can probably be used as a table to drink tea or something. At this location, if you open the window, you can see the scenery on the river. Although there is no additional stool, you can sit directly on the end of the bed and use it.
Since it is a double room, Yang Yuyao and Li Fengzhi naturally share one room, while Zhu Molan and You Shuangjiang share the same room. Although Yang Yuyao wanted to avoid sharing a room with others because of his own problems, he had no choice this time and had no choice but to stay up at night as much as possible. For Li Fengzhi, he was both excited and uneasy to be able to share a room with Yang Yuyao. He began to wonder if he had the habit of snoring, talking in his sleep or even sleepwalking, and whether his sleeping position was too unsightly. He was afraid that he would make Yang Yuyao unhappy. Therefore, after discovering that it was equipped with thick bed curtains, the two people who had their own thoughts were relieved.
"?" Since he got the space ring given by Yang Yuyao, Li Fengzhi has put all his luggage in the space ring except for the black iron sword on his back. Li Fengzhi basically has no need to store his luggage. If you stay in an inn or Yang Yuyao's portable wooden house, you will need to take out some changes of clothes, but there are no conditions for bathing on this ship, so you don't even need to change clothes.
So Li Fengzhi just untied his leather cross-body shoulder strap, took off the black iron sword and put it outside the bed. Then he sat on the bed and looked at Yang Yuyao who was busy facing the bed. However, what Li Fengzhi didn't expect was that Yang Yuyao was actually making the bed! If it is a three-story Datong bunk without bedding, there is nothing wrong with making the bed. But here is a double room on the second floor. It is not only equipped with bedding, but also neatly laid out. You don’t need to do anything yourself at all, you can use it directly.
However, Yang Yuyao didn't seem to think so, so Li Fengzhi saw that Yang Yuyao spread out the quilt provided on the ship, spread it out like a mattress, and then continued to throw cleaning skills on it. This is not over yet. After stopping the operation, Yang Yuyao took out a complete set of bedding from the space ring. First, he wrapped the matching bedding tightly with a piece of particularly large cotton cloth, and then spread it on his own mattress. , put pillows and quilts.
Yang Yuyao obviously does this often, because he is so skilled that he hardly needs to use his hands and can complete these tasks only by spiritual control. Of course, after being laid like this, the mattress will be more than twice as thick. Yang Yuyao then sat on the bed, and then looked at Li Fengzhi who looked over curiously.
"I prefer beds, and I have a special mysophobia about beds...well, I also have some mysophobia in other aspects." Yang Yuyao guessed that Li Fengzhi saw the whole process of what he did, so he explained with some embarrassment. If there were some inns equipped with cabinets, he would put the provided bedding into the cabinet first and then lay his own. But in a room without cabinets, he adopted this method to solve the problem of making a bed. In short, regardless of whether he accepts the bedding provided by the merchant or not, he must put his own bedding on it, so that he can sleep more peacefully. Even if you don't necessarily fall asleep, lying down is more comfortable.
"What is mysophobia?" Li Fengzhi asked in confusion.
"Well... the need for cleanliness has reached an abnormal state. As far as I'm concerned, it's the bed I sleep on. I don't like other people lying on or sitting on it. Although it doesn't necessarily mean anything, I just feel it in my heart. It’s uncomfortable. As for the bedding in these guest rooms, I didn’t see them being cleaned and laid out in front of me, so I’m not sure if I’ve ever laid or sat on it. I would feel more at ease if I laid it on.” Although there was some hesitation, Yang Yuyao did not avoid it, but said it directly. He thought that it would be better to explain it in advance than to have a conflict if Li Fengzhi accidentally sat on his bed. After all, they had to live in the same room. house.
When traveling with Yi Ziqi and Ye Qianqian before, although Yang Yuyao was willing to squeeze into the carriage with Yi Ziqi and Ye Qianqian to rest, it was because Ye Qianqian slept on the seat, and Yang Yuyao had not yet taken a rest at that time. The seats in the carriage are converted into foldable beds. As for him, he sleeps on the floor, which is strange to him. He feels that sleeping on the floor is not a serious way of sleeping, so relatively speaking, there will not be such a big sense of rejection, but if they can't stay in an inn, Under such circumstances, Yi Ziqi basically just spent the night outside the carriage.
Yang Yuyao himself didn't know whether his rejection of others touching his bed was an extension of his dislike of others touching his body. After all, he was willing for He Qianqing to touch his body, and he was also willing for He Qianqing to sleep with him. At present, He Qianqing seems to be the only person who can lie on his bed without him feeling uncomfortable.
Li Fengzhi looked at Yang Yuyao. After hearing Yang Yuyao's answer, he felt that Yang Yuyao's strange request was indeed unheard of, but it seemed that it was not incomprehensible. After all, the bed is indeed a relatively private place, and there are many taboos about using beds in Tongling Town. For example, pregnant women are not allowed to sit on the bed of the newlyweds, and no one else is allowed to sleep on the bed of the head of the family except himself and his partner, etc.
As for the reason why you can't do that, it is said that it will bring all kinds of bad luck. Li Fengzhi doesn't know whether this is true, but the adults in Tongling Town are very concerned about avoiding these situations. Even if the house is too small to accommodate a guest room, a piece of furniture called a guest bed will be specially installed.
It seems that it is not very accurate to call it furniture, because when there are no guests staying overnight, this guest bed is just a few wooden boxes that can hold things, and then matched with a bed board that is usually stuffed behind the wooden box. If guests come, just move these wooden boxes, put bed boards and bedding on them, and it becomes a bed. Since Li Fengzhi had not stayed overnight since he left Tongling Town, he did not know whether it was only like this in Tongling Town, or whether other places also had such customs and items.
"With Yu Yao like this, wouldn't it be very troublesome if he had a partner?" Li Fengzhi watched Yang Yuyao walk to the window and push open the wooden lattice window. The wooden platform under the window sill was very narrow, so it did not affect the opening and closing of the window. It was already dusk, and the river surface was dyed red by the setting sun. The sparkling waves turned into dazzling gold in the afterglow. At this time, the ship had slowly sailed away from the dock. On the river in the distance, there were several small fishing boats. With the light behind them, they look like delicate silhouettes.
When the brilliance of the setting sun poured down as Yang Yuyao opened the window, it shone on Yang Yuyao's body and covered him with a thin layer of gold, and outlined a hazy golden edge for him. Looking at Yang Yuyao Yao's beautiful side face looked like a statue of God condensed in the light. It was solemn, beautiful, yet ethereal and out of reach. Li Fengzhi suddenly felt as if something was stuck in his throat.
