Chapter 652 A lamp in the night rain in the sea
Ou European ~~Ou European ~~
The west clouds dyed a gorgeous sunset. On the vast sea, white gulls flew around the masts, overlooking the large ships sailing slowly eastward below.
The four scholars lying on the wooden couch in the cabin woke up in a daze, covering their swelling and painful heads. Wang Feng opened his eyes, sat up on the low dome, and looked up, and looked around.
"Ma Liu, Zhang Ti, Zhao Tang, get up quickly, something happened!"
There were several wooden beds on both sides. The other three scholars woke up in a daze. When they heard their elder brother's voice, their consciousness slowly regained their minds and yawned.
"Brother, is it time for dinner?"
"Look carefully, where is this?" Wang Feng nodded and signaled them to see the surrounding furnishings clearly. The three of them rubbed their eyes a few times and found something wrong. He woke up and looked at each other in a panic.
"It seems like a cabin..." "It won't be blown onto the boat by that strong wind."
"Hey...Do you feel that the boat seems to be moving?"
The four of them flipped their feet, put on their shoes and pushed them back and forth, and rushed out of the cabin door. The gorgeous rays of light reflected into their eyes. In front of their vision, and even around them, there were all undulating seas. Flocks of white birds in the sky stood on the masts and roared.
"This...this is really a sin!!"
The slightly fat Zhang Ti cried and stomped his feet in anger: "I finally had another errand. I have only worked for less than half a day, so why did I go to sea?"
"Why are you crying for a real man?! How can we and four of us read the books of sages in vain? What kind of morality will we cry after a little hardship?"
"Look at that."
At this time, Ma Liu pushed his third brother with his elbow, raised his chin, and looked in one direction. The four of them looked at him. A scholar in the green robe held a fishing rod, flipped through the pages, sat on a small stool fishing. There were already several tender and plump sea fish at his feet.
Seeing the scholar's side face, the four of them subconsciously closed their mouths, stopped like crying and braked. They took a few steps back, retreated back to the cabin, gathered together, and started to mutter.
"Did you see that person?" "I saw it, it seems... Lu Liangsheng."
"What Lu Liangsheng, you have to call the national teacher!"
"Brother, do you think the national guru saved us?"
"It should... right? Otherwise, let's go out to pay homage to the national teacher? We are all on the same boat, so it's fate."
"Yes, yes, whether you can go back or not depends on the national teacher."
"......Brother, second, third brother, younger brother, I'm a little afraid..."
"I'm afraid, let's go! Let's go together!"
After whispering and discussing for a while, the four of them pushed each other and prepared to leave the cabin, they heard Lu Liangsheng's words coming from outside.
"Everything comes out."
Outside, Lu Liangsheng, who was sitting on the side of the boat, closed the book and pulled the fishing rod. A big white fish fell into his hand. He took off the hook, pinched his head, then stopped moving and threw it on the pile of fish at his feet. He turned his head and looked at the cabin door, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.
"Come out and take it to cut it off, and eat fish tonight."
The sea boat is much larger than the ordinary boats in rivers. The hull is heavy, and the waves are calm and the people are walking on it. It is not that bumpy, making people seasick and sick.
The four of them came out with a smile, and saw the scholar walking to a very small recliner over there, holding a big toad in his hand, and muttering in a low voice:
"After all, we were scholars who were famous, why did we let us do the kitchen work!"
A companion approached her and whispered to remind: "......It's Chen Chao's business to have fame."
“…….”
"Forget it, forget it, stop talking. If we don't do this, will the national teacher do it?"
The four of them looked at me, and I looked at you, but they had nothing to say. They put more than a dozen fish in their robes, returned to the cabin, looked for a knife, and squatted on the ground to cut the fish one by one.
The sunset fell to the sea level and shone the last ray of light. Lu Liangsheng took up the lounge chair and carried his master back to the cabin. He looked at the four people who were concentrating on fishing, took out pens and ink, walked to the deck, dipped ink and wrote the surrounding railings with ink, and fixed them with spells to prevent them from being soaked in the sea water.
As the night fell, Lu Liangsheng collected the magic power of the water and let the ship hover in place. Then he walked back to the cabin. At this time, the four scholars hugged in a ball and hugged in the corner. Looking at the small stove with fire on the other side, the Toad Taoist was padding a few pieces of wood and stirring it in the pot with a wooden spoon.
"You four, get eight fish skewers and grill them by the stove!"
Taoist Toad recognized the four people, and the four scholars there also knew about toads. They had seen them when Changyang Mountain in the northwest, but they didn't know that Taoist Toad was also a monster and could speak. When they saw the other party speak, they were scared. They picked up the fish tremblingly, stringed them together with chopsticks and squeezed them in their hands, and moved them carefully.
Licking the flames from the oven, illuminating the toads over there, I took out a white apron from somewhere and tied it around my waist. I chopped the remaining fish, picked them up and threw them into the pot, put them on the flippers, leaned over and smelled them in the pot, stretched out the webbing, took out a few pieces of ginger and green onion from the apron pocket, and took out the salt blocks and smashed them into it, stirring them for a few times, and then said to the scholar who came in:
"Liangsheng, the fish cannot be cooked for a long time, come and taste it."
“The master’s skills are really good.”
"That's natural, I haven't cooked anything in the past."
Lu Liangsheng went over and sat down, took the small bowl handed by his master, took a sip, not only retaining the freshness of the fish, but also not having the fishy smell. Then he smiled at the four people over there and said, "You try it too. Since you are on a boat, don't be restrained."
"Oh, okay." "Thank you!"
"Thank you to the clams over there..."
Hum? The toad Taoist face darkened. Among the four people, the scholar who thanked him quickly spat and said, "It's the Toad Immortal! Xie Toad Immortal."
"Yes." The toad then slowed down and turned his head.
An oil lamp was hung in the cabin. In the dim light, the four of them picked up the bowls and chopsticks and pulled them away from the master and disciple there, eating and drinking carefully.
As the chopsticks touched the bottom of the bowl, Zhao Tang, the shortest one over there, asked in a low voice: "Master... can you ask a question?"
"Um?"
Taoist Toad hugged the small red rooster bowl and turned his eyes, and the coldness in his eyes became scared, which scared Zhao Tang tightened his neck and retreated into the four of them. Over there, Lu Liangsheng smiled, probably knowing what they were asking.
He also admitted that he could explain the doubts to these four people, so that the other party would feel awkward and make trouble later.
"I'm going to do something. As for when I go back, I might have to float on the sea for more days."
"oh."
The four of them hurriedly buried their heads, clamped the fish and rice, and when the national master finished eating, they rushed to wash dishes and wash the pots. Anyway, there was no one else. A gentleman was far away from the kitchen and had already thrown aside. Now he has established a good relationship with the national master, and he could not say that he could return to Chang'an in the future, become a high-ranking official, and enter the court. That would be the peak of life.
It was getting late. After dinner, Lu Liangsheng set the bow of the ship in the east and returned to the cabin, but the bed was paved by four people early.
"You..." Lu Liangsheng didn't know what to say, so he had to remind him: "Don't sleep too hard when you sleep."
The four nodded and then left the cabin. The scholar lit an oil lamp, put it on the slightly shaking small table, leaned against the bedside, and flipped the book. The words just now were not to scare these four people. After all, they left the land of Jiuzhou and floated to the sea. Maybe the gods in the sky would throw their magic to stop him.
Moreover, ordinary spells can't have any effect when dealing with them. Today, during the day, it can be explained that it is with the Ganyang Palm at the dock.
"Master, you go to bed earlier, too."
In the lights, Lu Liangsheng looked at the toad Taoist sitting on the table with his webbed hairs. The latter bulged his toad eyes and waved his head.
"I won't sleep for the time being. I'm a teacher... I'm just feeling a little seasick... I want to vomit..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly jumped off the small table, spread his flippers and ran wildly outside.
.........
The sea surface was as dark as ink. In the waves, a fish shadow slid across the bottom of the water, followed by one, two, four...ten...hundred...hundred, and all directions rushed towards the bright lighted sea surface.
On the deck, the Toad Taoist was vomiting while holding the fence. In the cabin, Lu Liangsheng, who was reading a book with the lights, suddenly frowned, and faintly heard the sound of different water from the waves, and narrowed his eyes.
‘Hmph, it’s really here.’
On the other side of the cabin, four scholars were lying on their own wooden beds, and they couldn't fall asleep while tossing and turning with bedding.
"Brother, what do you mean by what the national master said in the end? There will be no monsters, right?"
"Hmph, monster? We are scholars, so we are afraid!"
"Don't talk, listen, it seems that someone is talking...it's still a woman."
Someone sat up, listened for a while, took the wooden pillow and threw it at Ma Liu who was talking just now: "Where is the woman talking? I'm afraid she's crazy about women!"
Dong!
