in charge

The darkness is rich, and the breath is full of river tides. "New text reading experience"

Night boats and night travelers should be in a hurry, but Mo Zi's mood is as leisurely as spring water.

The boat has been traveling for nearly half an hour, because it is still in the water environment of Dazhou, the lights are still very bright, and from time to time, when it encounters the same night-going boats, it can still ask each other for safety.

Someone came up the ladder behind her, and when she looked back, it was a stinky fish.

According to the duties on a modern ship, Stinky Fish is her first mate.His coordination and communication skills are as good as his eyesight, so she puts him in this position.The water snake is in charge of the tail rudder, the fat shrimp is in charge of the two wings, and Laoguan's all-round inspection is all replaceable by humans.

"The more I look at it, the more I feel uneasy." Smelly Fish came up and said, "Isn't it too easy? Mozi's cabin is on the second floor, with two rooms at the back, sleeping at the back, and working at the front.

From the front of the table through the mouth, Wu Cheng's boat can be seen clearly, and there are clear figures on it, and there is no disturbing sneakiness.During the time when Xiao Er and the others had rested, her eyes hardly left the boat in front of her.Naturally, she and Smelly Fish have the same thoughts, and the more they look at it, the more unreliable they become.

She went to the front, patted the special bamboo venetian blind, and said to the stinky fish, "Blow on the lamp and the stinky fish will do the same, and then follow her example, standing behind the curtain, lightly peeling off the bamboo venetian and looking out. "It turns out that this weird curtain is so useful, tng convenient. "

Mo Zi smiled lightly, "Take care of peeping."

Smelly Fish nodded, "It's easy to use, easy to use. In other words, this boat is full of treasures. Brother Mo—" He looked over.

The blue hair like a waterfall covered half of the cheeks, and the lamp outside the door outlined a slender figure.She reached out and brushed her black hair behind her ears, revealing her small jade earlobes.The complexion is golden, the expression is quiet, and the side profile seems to be bright and clean like the moon in the sky.

"What?" Mo Zi looked over when he heard his voice cut off.

"I suddenly thought, maybe I shouldn't call you Brother Mo anymore." Smelly Fish sized her up and down, no matter how blind she was, no matter how blind she looked, she was still a big girl, "I don't see you wearing men's clothes, and you don't even listen to swear words." Say. Just now I called you Brother Mo, but when I turned around and saw a beauty, I felt weird."

Mo Zi smiled and rolled her eyes. "Isn't it just a name? It's not so awkward. In the past, I was afraid that you would look down on me as a woman running a boat, so I dared to drink and curse loudly. After a long time, it is difficult to change it. I thought I was wearing women's clothes. Still like a man. According to you, I have changed back a little now?"

Smelly Fish hecked twice, "Whether it's Brother Mo or Mo Zi, they are born to behave differently from those women who are bound and restrained. I'm afraid it's impossible in this life to want Xiaojiabiyu and everyone to be a lady, but she is a well-deserved heroine. No one can be it." You are a man, but no one can treat you as an ordinary woman. However, probably because you wear more women's clothes, the appearance of your daughter's house is more restrained now."

"That's good, so you don't have to talk about my worry behind my back." Mo Zi blinked mischievously, but the next sentence got to the point, "Just look, how many people can Wu Cheng's boat hold?"

Wu Cheng changed the ship.From the original medium-sized small cargo ship, it was replaced by a cargo-passenger long-distance ship with a load similar to her ship.

"At least 200 people." This is also what Smelly Fish is worried about, "Strange? I asked Qiao Laosi two days ago, and he said that the boat we saw that day was going to Yuling. Today I asked him, and he said it seemed like This time, the ship was changed due to overstocking. I don’t know whether to trust him or not.”

"Qiao Lao Si is also under the surveillance of Yuzhong. I'm afraid Wu Cheng won't let him know too much. It's the loach who boarded our boat with him. I don't think he is an ordinary gangster, and he also holds the boat map. , may be trusted by Wu Cheng. You should pay more attention to his actions. Also, let your two brothers and Lao Guan lead people to look more skilled, and don’t be fooled. Those points in the dark must not be ignored, twelve a day Keep an eye on the hour." If the boat ahead had 200 people on board, it would be more than double that of this side. "I reckon that even if they make a move, they will have to enter Yuling. However, we can't be careless because of this."

"Okay." After getting Mo Zi's instructions, Smelly Fish immediately went out to deliver the order.

On the second day, everyone had breakfast together. Loach and Qiao Laosi came in to talk.

"After watching the boat ride overnight, I'm sorry to say that this boat is deep in water and heavy in wood, so it's really not the best boat for walking on the river." The loach man, as his name suggests, is black and thin, has no hair, small eyes, flat nose and flat mouth. Like a smooth loach head.

Xiao Wei frowned the most, "Little sister, you rented the boat, and the rent is not cheap."

Mo Zi pretended to be surprised, "How could it be? I rented it from Yajiang Cargo. They said the boat was big and fast and could withstand wind and waves. Besides, the gangsters we found also said that the boat was good?" I had spoken with Xiao Er, but I didn't expect him to be able to cooperate.

"Miss, the ones you're looking for are not serious boat gangs, they're solo boatmen, and it's okay to go for a short distance." When Nixie said this, the corner of his mouth twitched inadvertently, which was an expression of contempt.

Despise the three stinky fish brothers?

"Then what should I do?" Mo Zi tng wanted to know the other party's suggestion.

"Your boat is too slow and our trip will be delayed. The boat is heavy, so it's better to increase the oars. How many people are on your boat, can you spare some to paddle?" Niach returned enthusiastically, "If there are not enough people, we can borrow Experienced gangsters can also bring big oars.”

It's a good way to find out the truth, and at the same time want to insert people on board.

"We only have seven, no. 80 people." Mo Zi said honestly, "there are big oars on the boat. How about, big brother, transfer half of the people? Save yourself eating and doing nothing."

Loach's eyes faded, "That's good."

"Speaking of which, can we have a look at the boat map? I agreed with Boss Wu at the beginning." Mo Zi opened his mouth to do something important.

"This——" Loach hesitated, "Miss and Boss Wu said that there should be a map on the ship, which will be kept by us, and they never said that you want to see it."

"I paid an extra hundred taels of gold for a picture, and I didn't want to keep it for myself. I can't take a look at it?" Mo Zi was a little "annoyed", "Then you go tell Boss Wu, I will change my mind and not follow yours." The boat is gone. Anyway, it’s still on the Dazhou River, so it’s just a matter of time.”

"Little sister, don't play xnwei at this time and take the big brother's airs at the right time," they have their own rules. "

Loach hurriedly nodded and said yes.

"Well, let my cousin take a look." Mo Zi insisted, "Although she can only read a few words, she can still understand whether it is a map or not."

Yang Qiao snorted, "Don't, I don't even read books, but I still read maps?"

Seeing this, Loach agreed.

Yang Qiao was urged by Mo Zi, and finally dawdled up, and looked at it meaningfully, "I recognized the words "water" and "picture", and there were some twists and turns like a landscape painting, with some place names in the frame, but I don't know the name of the river. "

The corner of Niqiu's mouth twitched again, and he put the picture into his arms, and retreated with Qiao Laosi.

As soon as they left, Mo Zi immediately took out a pen and paper, spread it on the table, and quickly studied the ink.

Yang Qiao took the pen, stopped looking at the three people around her, and lowered her head to concentrate on it.

"What are you doing?" Wei Jia didn't understand.

Mo Zi pulled Xiao Wei and Wei Jia outside before saying, "She's drawing a picture."

"Water channel map?" Xiao Wei was startled.

Zi gently closed the door, "Do you think the emperor let Yang Qiao come out to show off? She has a photographic memory, and she is better than her brother. As long as she has seen the map, the map is fine. Landscape painting is also good, it can be copied to a very similar level."

When Yuan Cheng told her, she was both surprised and delighted.Surprised that Yang Qiao had such ability under her cute appearance, and happy that there was an extra helper with a photographic memory on the way.

Wei Jia was a little annoyed, "Last night I laughed at her for going out to play in the mountains and rivers, but she was so smiling that she lost her temper, to be honest."

"Probably didn't expect her ability to be used so quickly." She also told Yang Qiao early in the morning. "During the meal, Yang Qiao was so nervous that she dropped her chopsticks twice, but when things came to an end, she remained calm."

"You should have told us about this kind of thing earlier." Wei Jia scratched his head.

"If you say it, you won't have such a natural reaction. The expressions on the two of you just now are also the same as if she looked at it for nothing, and the loach sees it in her eyes. The effect is very good. Moreover, I have the final say on the sailing. Why not let me do whatever I want?" After laughing, she stared intently at the deck where the loach released a pigeon from the bow.

Is it such a two-way connection?

"Mo Zi, even so, don't talk about it until everything is done, after all, water warfare is what Wei Jia and I are good at." Xiao Wei intuitively felt that there seemed to be a tense tension between the two ships.

"Don't worry, once there is a fight, you two will definitely rush to the front. However, we have to enter the territory of Yuling." Mo Zi can't tell Xiao Er that if it turns into a situation where black eats black, it is purely because of her The reason for the s person here.If she said it, with Xiao Er's integrity, it is probably conceivable that he would be furious and say something that puts the overall situation first.However, for her, this is an important move to lead the overall situation.

About half an hour later, Yang Qiao poked her head out with a bright smile on her face, "Okay."

The three of them walked in and saw a map with wet ink on the table, with mountains and waters, and detailed place names marked on it.

"Quiet, how sure are you?" Mo Zi saw their current location at a glance.

"Very good." At this time, Yang Qiao was radiant, "The waterway map is a bit simpler. If it is a calligraphy and painting by a famous artist, I'm afraid I won't be able to imitate that charm."

"Here you ticked with a red line, is it the original picture?" Mo Zi pointed.

"That's right. It should be their road map." Yang Qiao replied.

"It looks like it." Wei Jia also agreed, "The waterway is narrow, the canyon is deep and secluded, causing strong winds and waves, and there must be many hidden reefs and shallows."

"Our boat is very heavy, can it pass?" Xiao Wei agreed with them by asking, "If their boat can pass, we can." Mo Zi pointed again, "If they want to plot against us, here is It's the best place."

At the same time, Wu Cheng was also looking at the picture.

"This is the place where I want those three brats to die!" The voice was not Wu Cheng's. ! .
