The most unlucky crossing in history

Huddled in the innermost part of the cabin was a girl who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. Her clothes were torn and drenched, her eyebrows were closed, her lips were pale and even bruised, but her cheeks were flushed strangely. Shouting, pushing and bustling did not wake up.It was obvious that he was seriously ill.

Zhong Qiyun frowned when he saw this. Most men who run merchant ships will leave home for a long time, and he even knows that many inland river fleets will have such a beautiful changji bought by their boatmen to take them away. Now the law does not prohibit this.

However, regarding this matter, Zhong Qiyun ordered the prohibition when he hired the boatmen. If there are offenders and no one can be found out, then all suspects will be fined for one year and will be expelled directly.

After so many months of traveling, it has never appeared...

Zhong Qiyun glanced at the boatmen around him unswervingly.

Seeing this, everyone hurriedly waved their hands and said, "Master, we all remember what you said, and dare not touch this."

"really?"

"Seriously! Absolutely impossible. My wife and children are still looking forward to it. If I do that, I will really feel sorry for them."

Guanshi Sun also said: "Boss, I don't think they did it. During this period of time, everyone has been disturbed by those bandits. No one has that kind of thought. What's more, I will work with them." , I have never seen them bring people into the ship."

"Yes, yes, Master, even if those unmarried boys are thoughtful, they don't dare."

Just a joke, Zhong Qiyun is the most generous employer they have ever met, and they have earned nearly two years of money by following them for the past few months. They will not lose this rare job because of their greed.

Steward Sun also vouched for it after hearing the sound.

Zhong Qiyun knew Guanshi Sun was a man, and if he was not sure, Guanshi Sun would not make such a guarantee.If not here, then...

Seeing Zhong Qiyun looking over, Zhang Zhenfeng quickly denied, "Don't look at me like that, the Zhang family rules are even worse, the people I bring are all Zhang family's long-term workers, and it is never possible to do such a thing."

"Boss, could it be that this person sneaked up here by himself?"

"Yeah, I saw her in this outfit..." She was wearing a revealing dress with a towel hanging on her face, "Is this what those changji in Sangha City are wearing?"

Holding a torch, Liu Wangcai approached, saw the girl's exposed back, and said, "She still has wounds on her body! It's all festered!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, maybe they broke into our place because they couldn't bear the beatings from those pubs."

Zhong Qiyun looked at the seriously ill man and waved his hands: "Forget it, you

Let's carry her out first. "Speaking, he turned to Zhang Zhenfeng and said: "Mr. Zhang, I'm afraid I'll trouble your Dr. Gu to show her. You can't just leave her like this and let her die on the boat." "

"Naturally, it's just..." Zhang Zhenfeng covered his nose, looked at the woman again, and said, "But I think she looks very sick. In this sea where there is nothing but nothing, it is impossible to be saved.”

"Then it's up to her."

After Zhong Qiyun finished speaking, he handed over the matter to Liu Wangcai, then left the cabin and returned to the bow of the deck. When the ship next to him approached, he threw the rope ladder and waited for that side to be fixed, then he climbed to the other side of the ship for routine inspection.

Women are also lucky. When there was no Mabosan, Dr. Gu set fire and strong wine to dig out the carrion and put some wound medicine on her. After a few times of high fever, she gradually recovered. It's rare to sigh: in the end, life should not die.On the day of docking on the tenth day, Dr. Gu asked the boatman to buy some herbs.

On the day of waking up, the fleet had sailed at sea for fifteen days, and the girl who saved her life was tearful, knelt down in front of everyone and kowtowed to thank her.

It was also at this moment that Zhong Qiyun and his party discovered that the girl turned out to be an adult, who lived in Dongzhou, and her name was Yang Xiangdong.

Her mother died early, and she followed her father to fish for a living. When she was 12 years old, by chance, a boat boss recruited workers to travel to Zhancheng. At that time, Zhengfeng's grandparents left one after another, and she was seriously ill again. The family couldn't make ends meet, so her father had no choice but to shave her hair, pretended to be a ten-year-old son, and brought her on board.

It was also the boss of the boat who could not find a boatman to go to Zhancheng to allow her father to take the family with him. However, they never thought that they encountered pirates in the sea, and all the men on the boat were killed, and she was found to be a woman, so she was sold to the Harvey Court.

People in the Sangha City don't like women without hair. She worked there mopping the floor until a few years ago when she was caught out to accompany guests...

"When I first went there, I escaped countless times, but every time I was arrested and beaten, and then I didn't escape anymore. Where could I escape? I have never heard of any business trips in the past three years. I am I can't escape and I can't go back home... When I couldn't speak big words, I heard the news that the big boat fleet came to the Sangha..."

Doctor Gu sighed after hearing this, "So, you escaped again?"

Yang Xiangdong wept and nodded: "I tried to escape seven or eight times this month, and I was beaten every time...Fortunately, I finally escaped."

After Yang Xiangdong finished speaking, he looked at Zhong Qiyun and knelt down, "Thank you, Boss Zhong, for not giving up.

, saving the life of the little girl, I have nothing to repay..."

Hearing these iconic words, I was afraid that the girl would say some words of "promise with her body", Zhong Qiyun quickly stood up and shouted to stop: "Don't, don't, save you is easy, if you want to thank, Let’s take care of Dr. Gu, it was his excellent medical skills that saved your life. Just take good care of your wounds, the fleet will go back to Hangzhou, and it will also pass through Dongzhou. At that time, I will let you go, and you will be fine when you return to your hometown.”

After all, he no longer looked at the person, turned around and walked away.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhenfeng followed up with a smile, "Brother Qiyun really doesn't understand beauty at all. I see that Miss Xiangdong has a good appearance, and your eyes are full of admiration. It's not good to be a regular wife, but it's good to be a caring concubine."

"If Mr. Zhang thinks it's good, then you might as well ask if he wants to be with you?"

"Brother Qiyun is really joking, I am waiting to marry sister Ningyun from the Hu family, how dare I take a concubine first?"

Zhong Qiyun sneered when he heard the words, Zhang Zhenfeng was merciful everywhere, he was still gay, and he really planned to marry Hu Ningyun?Really no morals.

These days, they are familiar with each other, but they don't trust Zhang Zhenfeng Zhong Qiyun, so they don't say that directly, and just say: "Then I wish Mr. Zhang good luck, and return home with a beautiful woman."

After all, he didn't want to pay any more attention to this person, so he went to the nearby boat and found a rest room to take a rest.

However, Zhong Qiyun did not expect that from that day on, Yang Xiangdong followed him like a tail every day, serving tea and water, adding food and laundry, and even doing some boatman's work along with him.

Nodding should be nodding, but the next moment he returned to his original appearance, which made Liu Wangcai and his group who were watching the play joke: "Brother Zhong, Xiangdong is like this, you just go with it."

On the fifth day, when the fleet approached Qiongyang with a smooth wind, Zhong Qiyun saw that the little girl was about to follow him into the house, and then he turned around angrily and said to the fifteen-year-old girl: "Xiangdong, I have already said I don't need a maid, let alone you..."

"I don't mean to marry and take concubines, you are still young, there are other things you can think about and do, not just like this..."

"But I, but I..."

Zhong Qiyun frowned and said, "Hurry up and go back to your room. If you continue like this, I won't be so polite to you. Wherever you come from, you can go back to me." The pale girl was locked outside.

Lying on the bed, Zhong Qiyun was depressed, thinking for a long time, and thought a lot about how to go in the future, until the deep

Only slowly fell asleep at night.

But this night, Zhong Qiyun, who had few dreams in the past, actually had a dream. He dreamed of the days when he went to sea with his parents in his previous life, and dreamed of the wolf dog and his group of teammates. Pavilion, Miss Huaqiu went out to pick up the piano. In the night, in the cold wind, the sound of the door opening sounded, and the boat shook violently. He stepped forward and hugged her tightly, and a faint scent that he especially liked rushed into his nose. Confused and unable to restrain himself, he kissed those lips deeply.

And then, Zhong Qiyun woke up suddenly, the boat was indeed shaking violently, but there was no one in the room, he got down and stood up one step ahead of him.

Zhong Qiyun's face darkened, "I'll go—"

However, before he could think about it, the violent shaking of the ship surprised him.

There was a knock on the door: "My boss, my boss! Wake up!"

Zhong Qiyun took a deep breath, put on his gown and rushed out.

"what happened!?"

"The wind direction suddenly changed, the westerly wind blows, and the boat is far away from the coast!"

Zhong Qiyun took the pointer, squinted and looked up to the sky.Then he walked quickly to the bow of the boat, but before he got close, he heard Yang Xiangdong in front talking to Chen Wu and the others who were anxiously pulling the sail.

"No, you can't furl the sails and row east, there will be rain in the east later!"

"What do you know! Little girl, don't let me stand in the way!"

"It's going to rain!"

"Damn it! I've been at sea for three years, don't you understand?! If you get in the way again, I'll throw you down to feed the fish!"

"cocoa......"

"Fuck! Get the hell out of here!" Chen Wu yelled, and then saw Zhong Qiyun coming, and hurriedly said: "Brother Zhong, you are here, this little girl..."

Zhong Qiyun stepped forward and glanced at Yang Xiangdong, and interrupted Chen Wu's words: "Let me sail the sails to the south and southeast! Can't you understand after following me for so long? Suddenly there is a westerly wind and a heavy rain is coming , you dare to go further west, because you want to drive the boat to die?"

After finishing speaking, he let go of his voice and yelled at the nearby ships: "Sail to the south, if you don't want to go into the Dead Sea, sail to the southeast with all your strength!"

Two hours later, at dawn, visible to the naked eye, a mass of dark clouds tangled up in the northwest of the fleet, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and a torrential rain fell down there.The churning waves have affected even this place, making it difficult for people to stand.

If you go east at that time, I'm afraid it's already...

"How do you know there will be rain?" Zhong Qiyun looked at the little girl with delicate features in an ill-fitting boatman's uniform.

Yang Xiangdong wiped the sea water on his face,

Somewhat embarrassed, he said: "Brother Zhong mentioned the day before yesterday that the wind direction on the sea changes abnormally, and that would be turbulent clouds and heavy rain, and, moreover, I have encountered it before when my father and I went fishing..."

"Will look at the wind direction and the weather?"

"I used to watch the weather when my father accidentally fell asleep when he was tired."

Zhong Qiyun patted the little girl's head with a smile, "Isn't there a lot to do?"

As soon as these words came out, the little girl suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Zhong Qiyun, tears streaming down her face.

In the next few days, Yang Xiangdong still followed Zhong Qiyun, but not as close as before. Zhong Qiyun didn't say anything else, but taught her more about the weather, ocean currents and hidden reefs.

Ten days later, the fleet that had left Daqing for nearly three months set foot on the mainland again.

In late April, twelve large ships docked at the mouth of the Qiantang River in Hangzhou. Xie Wenyuan, who was ordered to track down the rebels, received the letter and rushed to the mouth of the river on horseback.

The author has something to say: the little girl will be a right-hand man.There will be no emotion, only gratitude to Zhong.
