Thirty-four and thirty-five climbed onto the deck along the hemp rope ladder that Broken Finger Three had put down by the side of the ship. As soon as they stood firm, they saw Scar dragging one person's feet from the cabin to the deck.
On Thirty-Four, he took out the fire certificate from his arms and looked at the deck with the light. Only then did he realize that there were already several people lined up on the deck.
Had I not known in advance that Scar had given the people on the ship food, drink, and water with a drug that made them sleepy, I would have thought it was a dead person when I looked at the motionless body lying on the deck. 's body.
“Don’t just watch, I can’t move such an old person by myself.”
Scar said this to Thirty-four and Thirty-five who were still standing and watching. After that, he put down his hands and returned to the cabin.
Thirty-Four and Thirty-Five nodded, turned around, and cupped his hands to the three severed fingers standing on the deck, and then walked towards where Scar went.
After the third watch, the four of them worked together to drag all the sleeping people in the cabin to the deck.
Thirty-four wiped the sweat from his forehead, raised his eyes to the sky, and estimated the time.
Just when Thirty-four wanted to discuss with Thirty-five whether it was time to send out a signal, a sharp "squeak" sound sounded in the ears of the four people, and then there was a "bang" explosion. Come, red letter flowers appeared in the sky.
After this letter flower appeared, "bang bang bang" sounds were heard one after another.
At this pier, along the long coastline, there were hundreds of ships of various sizes moored, and as long as there were people there, they were frightened by the sound.
Seeing this, Thirty-Four took out his own letter flower from his waist and lit it on fire.
After the "squeak" sound was followed by a "bang" sound, the pure red added a touch of color to the ink-colored night sky.
Xinhua appeared eight times in total, which also means that the eight teams, such as Thirty-four and Thirty-five, Scar and Broken Finger Three, who cooperated successfully completed their missions.
While the people in the other boats and the various people on the pier had not figured out what happened, three lucky boats came from upstream.
The people on the shore who had lit torches, under the dim moonlight, gradually saw clearly the flags on the lucky boats that were getting closer and closer to the deep water bay where the big ships were moored.
"It's the Du family army! It's the official army!"
People on the shore still don't know what happened at this dock?
It actually attracted hundreds of officers and soldiers, estimated to be here.
Those merchants who had ships moored at the pier here gathered together, all of them looking anxious, really afraid that something big would happen.
"Someone is coming from the governor's office! It's Yao Lushi."
When Yao Lushi summoned the shopkeepers and managers of the merchants, the navy generals under Du Qinghui also led troops to take over the place in Deep Water Bay. Eight large ships.
Of course, there is blood among them.
Because, not everyone is like Scar, the one who likes to use dirty tricks to give people sweat medicine.
It can only be said that if you dare to resist when you meet the army at this moment, you will definitely not kill one by mistake.
If he did not collude with foreigners, he must have violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty.
Among the people who came with the Du family navy, there were also bad guys. This time, not only were the bad guys coming, but there were also dogs that had not been trained for a long time.
This dog is naturally used to sniff the hibiscus ointment. It is a common local dog breed, a khaki short-haired dog with high obedience and docile personality. "Oh, okay, this looks like that."
Thirty-four looked at the two yellow-furred dogs held by the young man codenamed Forty-eight, Very interested, he smiled at the young man holding the dog and asked: "Is it okay? Don't just look at it.
Thirty-five and I were on this boat with the Du family's army." Thirty-four cupped his hands at Dao Scar and the severed finger who were already standing next to the officers and soldiers. "We searched together for more than two quarters of an hour but couldn't find anyone. A little bit of what we want. "
Forty-eight said this about his distrust of Thirty-four: "Dahuang, Erhuang, let's go and show your Uncle Thirty-four that we are one of the best dogs." ”
Forty-eight squatted down, took off the leashes from Dahuang and Erhuang’s necks, and after giving them orders, he saw the two dogs lowering their heads and sniffing back and forth.
Thirty-four and the people standing on the deck followed the two dogs very curiously. They wanted to see if Dahuang and Erhuang could really find something on the ship
before. Thirty-four was telling the truth. After he, Thirty-five, Scar and Broken Finger finished moving the people in the cabin and tied their hands and feet with ropes one by one, they started to attack the entire ship. I searched up and down the boat, inside and out, but really couldn't find any sign of hibiscus paste.
The cargo on the bottom floor of the cabin included grain, cloth, medicinal materials and various general merchandise. If there was anything out of the ordinary, it was two loads of coarse salt.
But inside the coarse salt, Thirty-Four poured it on the ground and pulled it apart bit by bit. He looked at it and found that there was really nothing there, just coarse salt.
At this moment, Rhubarb took the lead and squatted down in front of a basket, and kept barking "woof" at the basket.
Forty-Eight quickly stepped forward and moved the stacked baskets away one by one. He opened the lid of the bottom basket and saw that it was filled with porcelain bowls that were stacked together and padded with straw.
Forty-eight porcelain bowls were taken out, and the straw was poured out, but no difference was seen.
However, when Dahuang saw that Forty-Eight did not move, he barked at the basket again.
On the other hand, Thirty-four who had been following behind felt something was wrong, "There is something fishy!"
After Thirty-four approached, he took the basket from Forty-eight's hand. As soon as he got it, he felt something was wrong, "The weight is wrong. An ordinary dry basket is not so heavy."
Blinking his eyes, Thirty-four thought of something, and he took the weight from his waist. He took out the dagger he had attached and traced a circle along the bottom of the basket. Sure enough, it felt like it had cut the thread. Then he turned it over hard and actually lifted the bottom of the basket out.
What caught everyone's eyes were the strips of things wrapped in oil paper, densely covered with the entire bottom of the basket.
Thirty-four used a knife to cut open a piece of oil paper, and sure enough, it was cooked aphrodisiac wrapped inside!
“It’s a good dog!” Thirty-four praised Dahuang, who was wagging his tail at Forty-eight.
Afterwards, everyone worked together to pry open the bottoms of all the baskets in the cabin. It was true that the bottom of each basket was filled with wrapped hibiscus paste. There must be dozens of them. Jin (each Jin in Tang Dynasty was equal to 596.82 grams).
Afterwards, with the help of Rhubarb and Erhuang, hibiscus paste was also found in the interlayer of the wooden box transporting the goods. What shocked Thirty-Four and the others the most was that on the second floor of the ship, specialized Under the beds in the two huts where the stewards or bosses lived, over a hundred kilograms of hibiscus paste was discovered at once.
By the time the hundreds of kilograms of hibiscus paste were piled on the deck, it was already bright.
Thirty-four, thirty-five and forty-eight looked at these things, and all three of them felt that they had made a great contribution this time.
