Lu Jinping lowered his voice and said to Ye Qingqing: "Do you still remember the woman who caught me in Tongzhou last time? It was Lu Niang, the wife of the turtle, who sang a mountain song on the river that day. ⊙,"

Ye Qingqing was surprised and said, "She, is she still in Tongzhou? Why do you want to see him? He caught you at that time."

"Don't worry, she has said that she will never accept anyone's entrustment to catch me. Moreover, if she wanted to catch me, I was so far away from the river last time and I was alone on the river, so I had already caught me. Why wait until now? She has a very good water quality and is like a fish in the water. There will be absolutely no problem with her."

Ye Qingqing said: "She has excellent water quality, of course I don't want to go with you. It will only increase your burden. Sir, please take care of yourself. Never take risks!"

In fact, the reason why Lu Jinping dared to take risks was that he had a trump card in his hand, that was the snow sculpture left by Xiaoxiao to him, which was the snow sculpture that Xiaoxiao left for him. Last time he had tested it. After blowing the bagpipe, a cup of tea would land on his head and rescue him. So even if he encountered danger, there should be no serious trouble with the snow sculpture. Besides, Yunzi's martial arts are very good, and he has hypnosis and Nirvana hand protection. I guess there will be no problem. Besides, if everything is foolproof, then there will be no fun to take risks.

So Lu Jinping patted his shoulder lovingly and said, "I know what you are worried about, don't worry, please ask her to just protect us from safety, and I took Yunzi there. If I really have something to do with her, I won't let her be with Yunzi."

Ye Qingqing also lowered his voice and said, "Yunzi is from the Tubo Kingdom in the Western Regions. After receiving the princess, he will definitely send the princess back to their Tubo. You must not be moved by her, otherwise the world will be separated. If you can meet one day, it will only add to your worries. She will not be able to stay in our Tang Dynasty."

Lu Jinping smiled, his laughter was a little reluctant. In fact, it would be a lie to say that he was not moved by Yunzi. However, he was not as worried about this matter.

Yunzi rode a horse to Lu Jinping's mansion. At that moment, Lu Jinping also got on the horse, and the two rode their horses and galloped towards the Tongzhou River.

Although it was almost evening at this moment, the sun should not have set off by the time, but the dark clouds were pressing against the sun.

Everyone in the city knew that the storm was probably very violent, so the shops closed the doors early. Even the winery and wine plaques were removed and put into the house. The streets became deserted and there were not many people.

The two rode their horses by a tailor shop. Lu Jinping felt aroused in his heart. He remembered that the life-saving suits made of wood were quite effective on the island. The wood was not easy to find for a while, but you can find a way to replace it with other things. Make a simple life jacket. When there is really danger, it will be called "dirty every day". You have to rely on yourself.

However, this tailor shop has been closed, and if you have just sewn clothes, there is no way to do it within one or two hours. You can only find ready-made things.

So, they did not stop. They continued to ride their horses forward, looking around the streets, wanting to see if there is anything suitable to be a lifebuoy.

After passing a wine shop, but before the door was closed, Lu Jinping saw the wine bags hanging on their wall at a glance.

This large wine bag is about the same size as the sack now. After sufficient air, it should be able to float on the river surface, which is equivalent to a lifebuoy. Now that I don’t have time to sew, I just use this to make do with it, but it’s better than nothing. So Lu Jinping paid for two large ones. At the same time, he bought a roll of sturdy cowhide rope.

Yunzi was a little surprised and asked, "What are you doing for buying wine bags? Could it be that you still have to carry wine to the riverside to drink? This is a good idea, but even if you drink, you don't need to buy two. I know that you have a good alcohol tolerance and won't drink two wine bags at once, right?"

Lu Jinping smiled mysteriously and said, "Drinking is one thing. This thing is life-saving. You will know when the time comes. But you reminded me that we both came out in a hurry just now and didn't bring wine. Let's buy a pot here!"

"Okay, I'll sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman." Yunzi was very excited. It was a rare experience to be able to travel to Tongzhou River with Lu Jinping in the strong winds and waves. She was full of excitement in her heart.

Lu Jinping asked the store and chose the most powerful wine. Of course, the quality was also good. He paid for it and bought a small bag. It was probably enough for them to get drunk. The two of them found a deli restaurant and bought some cooked mutton, which they could grab and eat when they were holding it.

When we arrived at the dock, there was no ship on the river surface, and they were all docked at the dock. They were connected in strings and helped each other to keep them stable. Seeing the storm coming, no one dared to drive a boat to the river and go crazy, except for these two.

Yunzi said: "Let's not look for big boats, small boats are more interesting. Do you dare?"

"What's wrong with me if you dare? I'm afraid they won't rent it for us."

Yunzi smiled and said, "Do you still need to rent a small boat? Just buy it directly." After that, Yunzi quickly walked to the riverside and chose a small boat. It looked quite new. There were oars and bamboo poles on the boat. He asked the boatman if the ship was selling it or not and wanted to buy it at a high price. Seeing what they said, the boatman casually said a high price, but Yunzi didn't bargain. He took out an ingot of gold from his pocket and threw it to him, saying no, the boatman couldn't help but be overjoyed. At this price, he could buy at least two such small boats. He thanked him repeatedly.

Seeing that they were about to get on the boat, they advised them not to go up the river, saying that there would be a storm now, but seeing that they insisted on refusing, the boatman was a honest man and brought them two cloaks and straw raincoats.

Lu Jinping asked the boatman about the basic key points of rowing, especially the key points of rowing. The boatman told him the key points, and Lu Jinping quickly learned it.

Lu Jinping took the two more wine bags and asked the boatman to help him blow it up. The boatman did not refuse. After taking them over, he blew the two lounges in a bulging effort, helped him tie the bag with a cowhide rope and put it on the boat.

The two of them supported the boat and staggered towards the middle of the river.

The boatman stood by the river and looked at Lu Jinping in a hurry and supported the boat to the middle of the river. He couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that these two people were crazy? The storm was coming, but they still had to support the boat to the river. Isn't this seeking death?

When the boat arrived in the middle of the river, Lu Jinping put down the boat oar and started rowing. Although he was a novice and had never tried it, the boatman had already told him the key points and it was still decent. Although the boat was shaking from place to place, fortunately their boat was downstream, and he would walk forward even if he didn't row.

At this time, raindrops began to float in the sky, and the rain hit the boat board. Yunzi was happy and said, "It's raining, it's raining!"

Lu Jinping felt the wind start to rise on the river, causing the boat to sway. He took the two wine bags, tied them with two short ropes, and tied them to Yunzi and his waist respectively.

Yunzi was a little surprised and asked, "What are you doing for tying this thing?"

Lu Jinping said: "If the wind is too strong and the wind and waves overturn our ship and are all over the water, you can pull the wine bags along the rope on your waist and hold them, so that they will not sink."

Yunzi gave him a blank look and said, "I want to take risks and make these tricks. I don't, I like to be free and unlucky. I don't want to tie this up. I really want to fall down. If you save me, I will become a ghost and pester you."

Lu Jinping stepped forward without saying a word and hugged her, tied the rope to her slim waist. Yunzi struggled for a few times and stopped resisting, giggled, hugging his shoulders and shaking them randomly.

Lu Jinping finally tied the cowhide rope tightly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There are straw hats and straw raincoats on the boat, why don't you wear them?"

"It's a hot day, it's just enough to cool off when you get in the rain. What kind of straw raincoat is worn? When we get ashore, it's not bad to use it to cover up our shame. It's fine if we don't wear it now."

They are now going downstream, and the speed of the boat is already fast enough. So Lu Jinping simply let go of the oar, sat in the cabin, and said, "Come on, let's have a drink."

Yunzi said: "You drink first."

Lu Jinping was not polite either. He pulled out the wine plug, leaned over to his mouth and drank several sips, wiped his mouth, and breathed a long sigh and said, "This wine is quite strong."

Indeed, the quality of this wine is worse than the wine at their usual banquets, but the alcohol content is much higher. Although it is not as high as that of modern society, it has been considered a high level in ancient times.

Yunzi snatched the wine bag from his hand, leaned to his mouth and took several sips, then stuck out his tongue and said, "Oh, it's so spicy, what kind of wine is so spicy."

Lu Jinping was a little surprised. The woman was really heroic. She didn't even wipe the wine bags she had just put them on her mouth and then poured them into her mouth. Isn't this an indirect kiss? Seeing her cute appearance, she quickly grabbed a piece of mutton and handed it over and said, "Eat it quickly, it can suppress the spicy taste in her mouth."

Yunzi grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it hard. At the same time, he also grabbed a piece and stuffed it straight into Lu Jinping's mouth. Lu had to open his mouth and bit it. This piece was a bit big and could not be turned around in his mouth. It was very difficult to chew. Yunzi laughed when he saw it.

Yunzi said: "Didn't you say you want to find a boatman? Where is it?"

"Don't worry, you'll be here soon." Lu Jinping stood up and looked into the distance. In the wind and waves, he could vaguely see the huge locust tree. He said happily, "It's coming soon, let's take a shore."

He said that, but Yunzi couldn't paddle, so he could only row by Lu Jinping, slowly leaned over to the riverside by himself. He had already begun to master how to row, so the direction of the boat was right.

The rain began to get heavier, and the boat soon began to accumulate water. There was a wooden bucket in the cabin, and the clouds began to scoop out water to avoid overturning. Fortunately, the wind and waves were not too big, and the boat kept shaking, but there was no danger. Because although the boat was called Xiaozhou, if there were only two people on the boat, the boat was still relatively large and relatively stable. (To be continued.)
