Chapter 251: Crossing the River

By the time Li Si had arrived near Jingning County, it was already the second day.

As soon as he arrived near Jingning County, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

In front of him, the previously dried Bainu River was already filled with river water, rushing endlessly, and the surging sound of the river water resounded in his ears.

You should know that when he left Jingning County, the Bainu River was dry, and he even took a shortcut from the riverbed.

And now, it is impossible for him to pass through the riverbed again.

Seeing this scene, Li Si was a little happy, which shows that Bai Nuhe Longjun had already dealt with the drought in Jingning County.

At this time, he even saw the people on the other side passing by, his face was full of redness, and he obviously had eaten very well recently.

Seeing this, Li Si rode his horse along the river and saw where to find a place to cross the river.

He had just discovered that the bridge before Bainu River was gone, and now he had to think of a way to cross the river.

And just as he was riding a horse on the river looking for a path past, he suddenly saw a small boat swaying on the river in the distance.

"Boatman! Boatman!"

When Li Si saw the boat, he immediately shouted.

The captain's boatman seemed to hear his shout, responded loudly, and slowly rowed towards him.

Not long after, the boat had arrived near Li Si. A dark middle-aged man looked at Li Si and asked, "Scholar, are you going to take the boat?"

Li Si got off the horse and smiled and bowed, "Yes, can the boatman cross me?"

Hearing Li Si's words, the middle-aged man looked at the horse beside him and said hesitantly: "It's okay to cross you over, but you horse..."

Li Si smiled and said, "As long as you pass us over, I will give you two taels of silver."

He has observed this ship. Although this ship is small, there is no problem with ferrying horses.

When the middle-aged man heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, you go forward, there is a ferry not far away, I'll take you there."

"Okay." Li Si nodded and walked forward.

The boatman rowed forward, and soon there was no sign.

Not long after, Li Si arrived at the ferry that the boatman mentioned.

This ferry is very simple and should be a new one recently, so I can only use it. The boatman had already stopped the boat at the ferry and was waiting for him here.

Then, Li Si pulled the boat at this ferry and hurriedly got on the boat.

When Zhuhong got on the boat, she was still a little resistant, but under Li Si's eyes, she carefully stepped on the boat.

Fortunately, this boat has no tents or something, it is just a simple small fishing boat, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the red horse.

But even so, the boat seemed a little crowded.

"Let's go!" Seeing Li Si bringing the horse onto the boat, the boatman laughed, then rowed the oars, and the boat slowly left the ferry.

The boatman is obviously a veteran rowing expert. The boat does not bump in rowing, and it feels very comfortable to sit down. Even the jujube horse that was a little restless before slowly quiets down.

"Where did the guests come from?" the boatman rowed the boat, looked at Li Si, and asked with a smile.

Li Si smiled slightly and said, "Oh, I came from Zetian Mansion and am going home."

Hearing Li Si's words, the boatman was slightly stunned and then asked, "Zetian Mansion? Then have you been to the provincial examination?"

"Well, it's not bad, but I'm not lucky this year. I didn't pass the exam. I can only wait a few years before taking the exam." Li Si laughed.

Upon hearing this, the boatman nodded, then shook his head and said, "It may not be that he is not lucky, or that you do not have the ability."

Speaking of this, a hint of contempt appeared in his eyes.

Li Si frowned slightly. He was a little confused about why he and the boatman were chatting well with him. Why did the boatman speak so harshly.

But he immediately stretched out his brows. What was he scrupulous about this person? Could it be that he would still tell this person about his experience?

But he didn't say anything, and the boatman was still talking about some of his great principles, chatting endlessly, which made Li Si feel a little irritated.

Then he closed his eyes, and the eyes were gone.

However, not long after he closed his eyes, he felt a pair of powerful hands landing on his arms, and then pushed him hard.

"What are you doing?" Li Si opened her eyes, looked at the boatman who pushed her hard, and asked expressionlessly.

Hearing his words, the boatman showed panic on his face, and then pushed him harder.

Seeing the boatman like this, Li Si's face turned cold, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on his shoulder, then pinched it hard.

"Ah!!!" The boatman was pinched on his shoulder and immediately knelt on the ground in screams, with tears flowing out of his nose and tears.

Seeing him like this, Li Si slowly let go of his hand, let the boatman fall on the boat, and said lightly: "Send me ashore, I just pretend that this has never happened."

At this time, he didn't know what the boatman had to do. It was obvious that he was a weak scholar, so he wanted to seek money and kill him.

After all, it is worth a lot of money like a jujube horse.

"Okay...good..." The boatman's forehead was sweating coldly, rubbing his already shriveled shoulders and nodding in a hurry.

When rowing the boat, the boatman's eyes showed fear. This scholar was so strange that he couldn't even push himself.

Don't you encounter something dirty.

However, he observed Li Si a few times and felt slightly relieved. This man had a shadow and must be nothing dirty.

But anger appeared in his heart immediately. The man said that he thought nothing had happened, and he really thought he could bully him. His arms were crushed, and a foreigner dared to bully him like this, so he turned around and asked someone to do it together.

Now that there are so many people who have died in Jingning County, it is not a big deal to have an extra scholar.

Not long after, the boat slowly reached the ferry, and Li Si and Zhuhongma got off the boat and walked away.

Not long after he walked away, the boatman parked the boat at the ferry and was about to follow Li Si sneakily.

And at this moment, he suddenly stopped moving, his eyes showed a look of fear, and the flesh on his neck seemed to be wrapped around, making him unable to make any sound.

Then, his body suddenly staggered back uncontrollably, step by step, and fell into the Baishui River.

After falling into Baishui River, his face was full of fear, but his body still retreated uncontrollably, and he retreated deeper and deeper.

In his despair, the river water washed his body over and over again, poured into his mouth and nose, causing him to suffer.

When people in the distance saw this scene, they screamed in horror, and some even went straight to the river to save people.

However, when they arrived, the boatman had disappeared in the river and disappeared.

At this time, Li Si was watching what was happening in the distance, with no expression on her face.

All of this was done by Xiao Duan.

Judging from the boatman's behavior, it may not be once or twice, so Li Si had no psychological burden at all when he killed him.
