Luo Yang was stunned when he saw the corpse.
His eyes widened.
He didn't expect to see such a scene under the coffin.
Just like Little Eight, he was stunned.
Ji Yunshu's hands were exhausted. "Quick, protect the corpse."
Her voice pulled Luo Yang back to reality. "Why protect the corpse? Saving you is more important."
He was about to pull the corpse away, but Ji Yunshu didn't let go. She insisted, "Don't let the corpse get wet."
"It's just a corpse. Why do you care about it?"
"Protect it!" Ji Yunshu shouted.
Luo Yang had no choice but to pull the corpse up. Fortunately, it wasn't heavy, so he carried it on his shoulder.
However, his movements were rough.
It was as if he was carrying a gunny sack.
But when he thought of the corpse on his shoulder, his whole body went numb.
He felt nauseous.
Then, Ji Yunshu quickly sat up. She almost drowned.
She pressed her chest and gasped for air.
If it had been any later, she would have suffocated to death.
"Are you alright?" Luo Yang asked.
She shook her head and looked around. The ship was already tilting, and the walls of the ship were cracked. The river was trying its best to drill through the cracks. After a while, the bottom of the ship would be submerged.
"What are you looking at? Let's go. Do you want to die here? "Luo Yang pulled her up.
Little Eight also got up shakily, but because he was afraid of the corpse, he walked in front.
The three of them walked along the ship's corridor.
Luo Yang was carrying the corpse on his shoulder. His ankle was injured, and he limped. He couldn't understand why Ji Yunshu cared so much about a dead person.
And a dried corpse at that!
As he walked, he asked, "Can I throw this corpse away? We're running for our lives, not saving a dead person. Plus, it stinks! "
He couldn't help wrinkling his nose.
The smell was worse than Little Eight's feet.
Fortunately, it wasn't the smell of rot.
It was so bad that he didn't know how to describe it.
Ji Yunshu's body was weak. She followed behind him step by step. "You can't throw it away. If you want to make a name for yourself, he's your benefactor!"
"What? The corpse is my benefactor. Miss Ji, are you crazy from the weight of the coffin? "
Ridiculous!
This was probably the best joke Luoyang had ever heard.
Ji Yunshu warned him in a warning tone, "If you throw it away, you will lose your life!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's just a dead man. "Luo Yang chuckled.
He didn't understand what she meant.
But in the end, he did not throw the corpse away and continued to carry it forward. Although he didn't know, Ji Yunshu knew very well that this mummified corpse belonged to Prince Jing An. He was originally buried in Lingtang County, but now, his body was suddenly moved back to Yan Capital. It was obvious that it was the Emperor's intention. Since that was the case, it was very important.
Ah!
If Luo Yang had really thrown the corpse away, the Wen brothers would definitely kill him when the blame was placed on him.
However, if he saved them, he might be able to get something from the Wen brothers. Silver? Pearls? Treasure? Or perhaps … a meteoric rise!
In short, he absolutely could not throw it away!
…
At this moment, the situation above was under control!
Those black-clothed men were highly skilled in martial arts, and there were many of them.
Because of Wen Che's illness, he didn't have enough strength. If he used too much strength, he would suffer from angina. However, Yi Weian was a military general after all, and the people he brought this time were all experienced in battle. Even though they had been guarding Lingtang County, their martial arts skills and ferocious spirit had not diminished. Thus, the black robed men were still at a disadvantage and were defeated.
They were all killed.
The ship on the other side suddenly went out of control during their fight and crashed into the ship several times in a row.
At this moment, the ship was tilted and sinking bit by bit!
Corpses were strewn on the deck, and blood was everywhere.
Wen Che's body was propped up on the ground, and his chest was in pain.
Yi Weian immediately ran over and asked, "General Wen, how are you?"
He didn't care about his own body and said worriedly, "Go see Ah Yu and see how he is."
As he spoke …
Days later, he carried the unconscious Wen Yu up from the bottom of the ship.
Seeing Days, Wen Che struggled to get up from the ground and hurried over. When he saw the injury on Wen Yu's arm, he was frightened.
"Ah Yu? Ah Yu? "
Days apologized, "This subordinate is incompetent and didn't protect Second Young Master. Fortunately, Second Young Master is fine. He just fainted."
"Quick, quickly get something to stop the bleeding."
A few men immediately took off their clothes and wrapped them around Wen Yu's arm.
"There's no medicine on the ship to treat the wound," someone said.
Without medicine, wouldn't Wen Yu die from excessive blood loss?
Wen Che's face turned pale!
He could only press on Wen Yu's wound with all his might.
Yi Weian saw that Wen Yu and Days' clothes were all wet and asked, "Why are your clothes wet?"
Days answered, "The bottom of the ship is filled with water. The ship is sinking."
When they heard this —
"Oh no!" Wen Che and Yi Weian exclaimed at almost the same time.
Both of their expressions changed drastically!
"Prince Jing 'an's body is below. Go quickly!"
Yi Weian immediately rushed down with his men.
If something happened to Prince Jing 'an's body, his dream of staying in Yan Jing would disappear along with the river.
The Wen brothers would definitely be punished, and many people would probably submit petitions to them.
The consequences would be unimaginable!
When Yi Weian rushed to the bottom of the ship, he saw that the water was already up to his knees.
At that moment, he was really scared out of his wits!
Prince Jing 'an's body was probably submerged in the water.
His wishful thinking had probably gone awry!
However, he didn't expect to see three figures suddenly walk out of the ship.
Eighty walked in front!
Luo Yang and Ji Yunshu followed behind.
Prince Jing 'an's body was carried on Luo Yang's shoulder.
When he saw this, Yi Weian immediately rushed up.
Hope was ignited again!
Before Luo Yang could react, the dried corpse on his shoulder was carried away by Yi Weian and his men.
When he saw that the dried corpse didn't come into contact with the water and was unharmed, Yi Weian's heart was at ease!
Luo Yang twisted his sore shoulder and said, "This corpse should be yours, right? You're such a good person. If you didn't come and take it, I would have been crushed to death by the corpse. "
Yi Weian immediately had the men carry the corpse up, then looked Luo Yang up and down. "You saved him."
"Of course!"
"Many thanks."
Yi Weian was truly grateful and naturally looked at him in a higher light. Then, he went up.
Luo Yang was stunned.
Eighty said, "Big Brother, they seem very nervous about that corpse!"
Not very nervous, but extremely nervous.
