Chapter 264 Crossing the River(2/2)

Then look for a dock, and that's all we can do now.

In fact, Liu Xiu wanted to say that crossing the bridge is more convenient, but after thinking about it, he was too lazy to remind him. He was so happy to watch these guys experience life.

After walking about ten miles along the river, they really found a pier.

However, this pier is very small, and there is only one boatman here to cross the river, but there are still many people waiting to cross the river.

The boatman's boat is not big, only seven or eight meters long. If he ferries, he can sit for 100 or twenty at a time. However, if Liu Xiu and his friends want to cross the river, they can only come one by one. The problem is that there are more than 100 people waiting to cross the river on the dock...

"Board, we are in a hurry to go. Can you cross us across the river first? Give you more money." Luo Bing stood up and negotiated with the boatman as soon as possible.

The boatman is a white-haired old man, wearing only a sweatshirt. Although he is old, he probably has been raising a boat all year round. His body is not weak and his muscles are better than many young people.

Facing Luo Bing's inquiry, he shook his head with a smile and said, "Forgive me, my lords, I have been here for decades, and I have always come first and ferry first. Many of them are acquaintances. I can't leave them behind and ferry you first, right? Besides, I have always charged only one person, five copper plates, one horse, twenty copper plates, and more. I won't charge you, so please wait for a while. What if I want to do? I'll send the others over and ferry you again."

The people waiting to cross the river were originally guessing that Liu Xiu and the others were dressed and riding horses, but they didn't say anything, after all, they were just working hard.

However, after the boatman spoke, someone couldn't help but say, "That's right. The old man has been lying here for decades. Since I was a child, he has been this rule. He has no credibility. Even if he offends others, he will not break his own rules."

"Yes, many times, some people want to go to the lineup. Even if the old man is injured and the ship is destroyed, he will not break the rules." Someone said in line.

Luo Bing wanted to say something, but Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "Just follow the old man's rules. It's okay if we wait a little longer, and we don't have to worry about this time."

Although he was unhappy, Luo Bing still gave Liu Xiu this face, and the others said nothing. After all, if it weren't for Liu Xiu, they might not have been able to come here.

Next, the boatman slowly rode the boat across the river, but Liu Xiu and others could only wait.

He looked at the white-haired boatman thoughtfully. The boatman gave Liu Xiu a very special feeling, but he couldn't say it. No matter how he looked at him, he was just an ordinary old man. He really couldn't tell any name, so Liu Xiu stopped paying attention.

What does it have to do with others?

Liu Xiu dared to guarantee that the boatman was definitely not an ordinary person, but there was no evidence and he didn't go into it in depth. He didn't know whether he could meet again in the future after this time.

The reason why I think that the boatman is not an ordinary old man is that in addition to the indescribable feeling, is that Liu Xiu heard something from the previous person.

It is said that the speaker is unintentional and the listener is intentional. When the man said before, he was a child, the "old boatman" crossed the river here. Now decades have passed, and he has changed from a child to an adult in his forties or fifties. The "old boatman" is still like this. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?

Maybe the person involved didn't think so, but Liu Xiu was careful, but that's all. It's the same thing, it's all, how others have nothing to do with him Liu Xiu.

The boatman crossed the river again and again, because the river surface was only more than 100 meters wide, and it didn't take much time to go back and forth at a time. Soon after, it was Liu Xiu and the others' turn.

One person and one horse at a time, the money was paid by Luo Bing, and Liu Xiu was the last one to cross the river.

When the boat arrived in the middle of the river, the old man who was raising the boat took the initiative to speak, "Young Master, go to Jiannan Road, too?"

"Why did you say this?" Liu Xiu said in surprise, not because the other party took the initiative to talk to him, but because they had never said the destination but knew that they were going to Jiannan Road.

The old man smiled and said, "What's hard to guess? I've crossed many people who dress like this during this period. They all said they went to Jiannan Road during their chat, so I guess so do you."
