What a strong blow! If this blow hit a person, who knows what would happen. However, Little Crane Grass knew that this blow wasn't the opponent's full strength. From Liu Shun's words, he knew that the two sides in this battle were Saber Soul and Sword Soul. If the ship was hit by the full strength of the two, then the result would be the sinking of the ship.
At this moment, Liu Yu walked over. He glanced at Little Crane Grass and said with a smile, "Crane Grass, don't be afraid. Once the boat is repaired, we can leave. The rest of the river isn't particularly turbulent, so there won't be any danger."
Little Crane Grass nodded. Liu Ji also came over. Looking at Little Crane Grass, he smiled and said, "Let's go Bao 'er. There's nothing to see here. Let's go eat." Little Crane Grass nodded. Then he took Little Yu' er and went to the cabin to eat.
This day, they spent half a day repairing the ship. After the ship was repaired, they immediately set off. Although they weren't in a hurry to ship the goods, it was impossible for the Liu Family to not know about such a big thing that happened at the Devil Beach. As long as the family knew about it, then they would be very worried about their journey. In order to not let the family worry, they could only hurry on with their journey.
Just like what Liu Yu said, after passing through the Devil Beach, there wasn't any danger. The speed of the river wasn't very turbulent. Moreover, in this season, there was a favorable wind all the way. Therefore, the ship's speed was very fast.
Little Crane Grass and Little Yu 'er stayed on the ship. Although the ship wasn't small and there were ships passing by from time to time, for Little Crane Grass and Little Yu' er, sitting on the ship for such a long time was still boring. Little Crane Grass was fine, but Little Yu 'er was very bored. In this case, Little Crane Grass had no choice but to tell Little Yu' er stories.
He had read countless books. Although he didn't know how to tell any special stories, he could still tell some interesting anecdotes about the Soul World. In Encyclopedic Knowledge, there were a lot of interesting anecdotes that he could remember. And these things, not only Little Yu 'er liked to listen to them, the boatmen on the ship also liked to listen to them. Slowly, after every meal, those boatmen would gather together to listen to Little Crane Grass telling them some interesting anecdotes about the Soul World. This already became a habit.
And these people included Liu Ji, Liu Yu, and Liu Shun. Liu Yu sat on the side and looked at Little Crane Grass who was talking about these stories. He couldn't help but turn his head to Liu Shun and said, "Shun, where did Little Crane Grass? From your teacher? "
Liu Shun shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Uncle Yu, you've really stumped me. You don't know, but Little Crane Grass's learning talent is very good. A few days after he started school, he was called by his teacher to teach him alone. As for what he learned, I really don't know."
Liu Ji sighed and said, "It seems that the things Bao 'er learned must be very extraordinary. Don't forget who his teachers are, Yu Shu and Yu Feng. They are the two most knowledgeable people in our Liu Family. Even so, the two of them later said that they had nothing more to teach Little Crane Grass. You can imagine how much Little Crane Grass learned."
Liu Yu nodded, then he sighed and said, "This child is a genius. But Brother Ji, I'm a bit worried. I heard that people who are too much of a genius will have their lifespan shortened. A lot of geniuses die at a young age. Otherwise, they would suffer a lot of hardships. Little Crane Grass is such a genius, I don't know if anything will happen to him."
Liu Ji stared at him and said, "Bah, you don't need to say such discouraging words. Bao 'er will naturally have a bright future and a peaceful life. After we go back, tell Uncle Men about this matter. If necessary, our Liu Family can secretly protect Bao' er and let him grow up healthily. In any case, with Tian Niu and Uncle Men's relationship, Bao 'er will certainly help the Liu Family in the future."
Liu Yu nodded. At the same time, he secretly prayed in his heart. He didn't want anything to happen to Little Crane Grass. This wasn't only because Little Crane Grass can help the Liu Family, but also because he really likes Little Crane Grass.
The cargo ship continued to move forward. After ten days, they finally arrived at a huge pier. There were a lot of cargo ships docked at the pier. But these cargo ships had one thing in common, they all looked the same. In other words, these cargo ships were of the same size. On the hull of the ship, there were numbers and numbers engraved on it. It was clear that these ships belonged to the same family.
In fact, the pier that they arrived at was the Liu Family's private pier. This pier was built by the Liu Family, so only the Liu Family's cargo ships were docked here.
At this time, the pier was full of people. The leader was an old man. This old man was wearing an ordinary housekeeper's uniform, but his aura was extraordinary. This old man looked at the damaged cargo ship with a worried expression. There was no need to ask, this old man was naturally the Old Gate.
The ship slowly docked at the pier. Liu Ji and the others were standing on the deck. Little Crane Grass and Little Yu 'er were also standing on the deck. Naturally, the two saw the Old Gate. Upon seeing the Old Gate, Little Yu' er immediately jumped up in excitement. She kept waving her hand towards the Old Gate and shouted, "Grandpa Gate, Grandpa Gate!"
Little Crane Grass was also very happy to see the Old Gate. He also kept waving his hand towards the Old Gate. The Old Gate also saw the two of them, his face was filled with excitement.
The hull of the boat shook slightly, and the boat stopped on the deck. Immediately, someone threw a rope to the shore, and naturally, someone tied the rope to a stone pillar. After that, the boat lowered a gangplank, and a group of people walked down from the boat.
Little Yu 'er wanted to run down the boat, but she was stopped by Liu Ji. Liu Ji carried her down the boat. Little Crane Grass didn't run away, but slowly walked down the gangplank step by step. Although the boat had reached the shore, there was still a certain slope on the gangplank. If she ran down the boat, it would be very dangerous, especially for a child.
When Liu Ji and the others arrived on the shore, the Old Gate immediately came over. Little Yu 'er struggled to jump down from Liu Ji's arms and ran towards the Old Gate. Naturally, Little Crane Grass also followed. When the two arrived in front of the Old Gate, the Old Gate picked up Little Yu' er and kissed her on the face. Then he laughed and said, "Yu 'er, my good Yu' er, Grandpa missed you so much. Yu 'er, did you miss Grandpa?"
Little Yu 'er immediately replied, "I did, I miss you every day. Grandpa Gate, you haven't seen Yu' er for a long time. Yu 'er missed you."
When the Old Gate heard Little Yu 'er, he became even happier. He quickly said, "Good, good. When Grandpa has time in the future, Grandpa will visit Yu' er often." Then the Old Gate turned his head to look at Little Crane Grass. Little Crane Grass looked at the Old Gate and was very excited. He bowed to the Old Gate and said, "Grandpa Gate, I missed you too."
Old Gate squatted down and patted Little Crane Grass's shoulder. "Good child, Grandpa Gate is really happy that you can come. Hahaha. Alright, you can wait at the side for a while. After Grandpa Gate is done with his work, he will take you back." Little Crane Grass responded. Little Yu 'er, who was reluctant to leave Old Gate, walked to the side.
The Old Gate's status in the Liu Family wasn't ordinary. Now that they saw how much the Old Gate liked the two, the people in the Gate Family naturally knew what to do. Each and every one of them looked at Little Crane Grass and Little Yu 'er differently.
At this time, Liu Ji and Liu Yu also arrived at the Old Gate's side. The Old Gate's expression completely changed. There was no longer a kind look on his face. Instead, he looked at the two and said, "How is it? How are the losses? "
Liu Yu replied, "The hull was damaged. We also lost nine brothers as well as a third of the herbs. The third of the herbs should've been taken away by the pirates. They discovered that the Liu Family's ship was the Liu Family's, so they didn't take all of it. However, thieves don't leave empty-handed, this is their principle."
The Old Man nodded and said, "Don't worry about those pirates. It's good to have rules when doing things. We can't break these rules, otherwise, we'll become a thorn in their side. You've done a good job this time, so the family will reward you. As for the nine who were killed, the family will give them a pension. Alright, register the remaining herbs and send them to the storehouse. After you two go back, each of you should write a report and submit it to me. Write down the details of what happened to you at Devil Beach. The Patriarch might ask you some questions, so you should quickly submit the report."
The two of them nodded. At the same time, they heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts. This time, they had not only lost a lot of things, but also damaged the ship and killed some people. They thought that they would be punished, but now there was no punishment and even a reward. This really made them happy.
At this time, some people went on the ship to register the herbs. At the same time, some workers moved the herbs down from the ship and placed them on the carriages that were already prepared. The carriages directly transported the herbs to the warehouse.
At this time, the Old Gate's work was almost done. He went to Little Crane Grass and Little Yu 'er and said, "Crane Grass, Yu' er, wait for Grandpa for a while. Grandpa will say a few words to them, then we'll go home." Then he turned his head to a 20 year old young man and said, "Gate Qing, take them to the carriage." The young man nodded and looked at the two children curiously. He then led the two children to a carriage with a carriage at the side.
Gate Qing was the Old Gate's nephew. Because the Old Gate had no children, his status in the Liu Family was very high. Because of this, the Gate Family let Gate Qing serve the Old Gate. Although Gate Qing wasn't adopted by the Old Gate, he was still the Sixth Brother's successor. In the future, he would be taking care of the Old Gate. When the Old Gate died, he would be in mourning.
Gate Qing had been with the Old Gate for some time. Usually, he would hear the Old Gate talk about Little Crane Grass and Little Yu 'er. Because of this, he was very clear about Little Crane Grass and Little Yu' er's status in the Old Gate's heart. Now that he finally saw the two, he was naturally very curious.
It was undeniable that Little Yu 'er's appearance was like carved jade. She was very cute. On the other hand, Little Crane Grass was a bit worse. However, he had a gentle and refined aura that was very likable. Gate Qing's feelings towards the two were very good.
Gate Qing led the two to the carriage and carried them up. Before long, the Old Gate also came back and sat in the carriage. Gate Qing drove the carriage as the group headed towards Juyun City.
