Fish swimming around the world

Chapter 249 A Scholar and a Shark Crossing the Sea

Twenty miles away from the entrance of Longjiang River, on the vast sea, a medium-sized fishing boat was busy.

"Hurry up and pack up and prepare to return. The storm is coming soon. Please be more agile with your hands and feet!"

The boat boss shouted in the wind.

More than a dozen boatmen performed their duties and arranged everything in an nervous and orderly manner.

As the wind gets stronger, the sea becomes more and more undulating. The black clouds and fog can be seen with the naked eye moving towards this direction at an extremely fast speed.

The boss of the ship was also a little more anxious.

Suddenly I saw a young boatman standing there stupidly, and I couldn't help but kick him up: "What are you doing?"

The young boatman staggered, but did not turn his head. Instead, he pointed to the sea in the distance: "Head, look over there... over there..."

"What's that over there?" the ship's boss said angrily: "Don't you see the storm is coming? Why don't you hurry up and get to work!"

"No, it's not..." the boatman stammered: "Look, look, it seems... it seems to be a person..."

Seeing his abnormal expression, the boat boss couldn't help but be startled. He helped the boatman and looked up. After a while, he slowly opened his mouth.

"God...he is really a human being!"

At this time, there were other people who noticed something was wrong and followed their gazes. They were stunned the next moment.

On the undulating sea, I saw an upright figure moving quickly this way with the waves.

Getting closer and closer, and soon the sight in front of them shocked all the crew members.

I saw a man standing on the back of a shark, holding two reins in one hand and waving in this direction with the other hand.

The shark held a stick in its mouth and emerged from the water from time to time. Its dorsal fin split the waves and moved quickly towards the fishing boat.

Soon, the man was less than a few dozen meters away.

It was a young man, although his clothes were ragged, but he had a bright smile on his face.

"Everyone, you are polite. I would like to borrow a boat to go ashore, young man. Is it okay?"

The captain of the ship was dumbfounded and nodded stupidly.

The young man smiled loudly: "Thank you very much."

As he said that, he suddenly lifted the rope in his hand, and the shark jumped out of the water. It was nearly two feet long and was a huge monster.

The young man suddenly waved his hand and shook the stick out of the shark's mouth. The next moment, he put his toes on the shark's back, jumped in the air, and came to the boat. The shark fell into the water, circled, and gradually moved away.

The young man landed on the deck, with a warm smile, and slightly bowed his hands to everyone: "Gu Qingshan, please be polite."

This is how it is on the sea. The wind and rain come and go quickly. Before they have gone far, the clouds and rain stop. The sea surface also returned to calm.

The ship's boss and others were no longer anxious, the ship slowly returned, and they gathered in the cabin to have a meal.

The young man also changed into clean clothes at this time. We were talking and laughing with the boatmen.

This young man named Gu Qingshan said that he was a scholar and had gained experience by going to sea. However, I didn't expect that I got into a shipwreck when I came back and was drifting for more than ten days.

However, although it seemed that his hair had not been combed for a long time, his whole person still looked naturally clean and tidy. He has white teeth, a friendly smile, a polite manner, and a gentle conversation with a strong bookish air, which makes him very lovable.

Ever since they learned that he was a shipwrecked man who only got here by accident with the shark, everyone sympathized with him and admired him very much. After all, not many people had such ability or courage. Of course, everyone is not stupid. To be able to do such a thing, he is obviously a martial arts expert that is unimaginable to ordinary people. However, he does not have that aloof attitude. Instead, he is always polite and polite, making everyone feel very comfortable getting along with him.

"I have been at sea for more than a year, and I have just returned. Many things are indeed unclear. Fortunately, a few of them chatted with me, and I learned a lot of things. I am very grateful."

"Hey, sir, why are you so polite? We are just fishermen, and these things are nothing more than what we hear and see in daily life. Just treat it as gossip." The boss of the boat said while carrying a big gourd and filling him with wine.

The young man seemed to understand that the ship boss and others were straightforward men and were not too polite. Then he said with a curious expression: "The "Three Kingdoms" you just mentioned is very interesting. Who wrote it? I like it very much. I can't help but want to visit it after I get ashore."

The boss of the ship laughed and said: "I'm afraid it's a little difficult to visit. "Three Kingdoms" was only spread to our Southern Chu recently. It is said that it was written by a new prince from Qin when he was a waiter. When we have nothing to do, everyone We all like to listen to what scholars say, it’s very interesting, so we can chat when we have nothing to do.”

"Yes, it is said that he has not been crowned king for half a year. He seems to be called... Xiaoyao King." A boatman thought for a moment and said.

"Yes, it's Xiaoyao Wang. But I haven't finished writing it yet. I've listened to it over and over again, and I'm getting anxious."

"What do you know?" said another boatman: "That was a book written by King Xiaoyao when he was a waiter. Now that he is a prince, how can he have such leisure time?"

"Prince? Waiter?" The young man seemed stunned.

"A waiter, why is he a prince?"

Mr. Chuanlao Daodao: "I heard that he is a new prince from Da Qin. We are just fishermen. We don't know the specific situation. If you are interested, you can just go ashore and find out. This King Xiaoyao is very famous. Now. A few days ago..." He said with admiration: "He led an army of 30,000 to besiege Taihua, scolded Ling Yun, the best female swordsman in the world, and even snatched away a saint. Tsk, tsk, what a man... …”

"Huh?" The young man opened his mouth wide, as if he heard something incredible.

"Bing Wei Taihua? Are you so awesome?"

"That's right. It is said that the King Xiaoyao is a fisherman like us, but he became the king of Daqin at the age of sixteen. It's incredible, incredible. We fishermen are proud of it." A boatman said with full respect.

"Fisherman? Young man?" The young man's eyes flashed with curiosity, but these rough men really didn't know anything. The young man just heard that the King Xiaoyao was also called the immortal poet and the saint of poetry, and he couldn't ask anything else. Naturally, these men couldn't recite those poems.

However, all this made the young man very interested. Then he listened to the fishermen complaining about the recent war, and other trivial things, and then slowly walked out of the cabin.

The young man squinted his eyes and looked at the coastline not far away: Interesting, what happened in the past year I was away? Soldiers besieged Taihua... Four Kingdoms War...

Tsk tsk, interesting, interesting...

Especially this King Xiaoyao, who wrote the Three Kingdoms, was canonized as a saint in poetry, besieged Taihua, scolded his uncle, and robbed his sister, but he was just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old fisherman. This... where did this immortal figure come from?

As the young man thought about it, his face gradually became strange, and he couldn't help scratching his head.

... Uncle Lingyun, I didn't expect that you would be defeated by a fisherman again...

After more than 20 miles, the boat quickly docked.

Leaving behind the only jade hairpin as clothes and money for the ferry, the young man carried a bag of dried fish enthusiastically given by the fishermen, and waved goodbye to the captain of the boat with a smile.

Until there was no one around, the young man gently broke off a bamboo branch and inserted it in his hair, revealing a trace of joy. The next moment, the young man's figure suddenly shook, and the whole person seemed to break through the air like a long rainbow...
