When the book-traveling little detective meets the two-faced prince

Knowing that he was fooled by Lin Lezhi, Liu Yunhe's face was obviously embarrassed, but he couldn't throw away the oar in his hand. He tried his best to propel the boat and said angrily: "Lin Lezhi, you lied to me again!"

"Young Master Liu, you should always have evidence when speaking and doing things. I didn't lie to you."

"That doesn't count?"

"Of course not. At most, I didn't say it clearly. Even if someone happened to hear our conversation, I didn't say it."

"You...!" Knowing that he could not win the argument with Lin Lezhi, Liu Yunhe muttered softly to the side: "You didn't lie to me. Am I stupid? I get fooled by you every time." Liu Yunhe muttered softly to the side.

Lin Lezhi burst out laughing.

"No, you didn't refute me this time. You even laughed."

Lin Lezhi held back his laughter, but the corners of his mouth still couldn't stop rising. He patted Liu Yunhe's shoulder and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Young Master Liu to help me row the boat."

Lin Lezhi pointed in the direction of the soldier, waved his hand and said, "I'm going to sit over there and rest for a while. I'll come back to replace you later."

"Oh, right." Lin Lezhi walked a few steps to the middle of the boat, and suddenly thought of something. He turned around and looked at Liu Yunhe and said with a smile: "Remember to keep evidence next time."

This is not the first or second time. Why do I fall into Lin Lezhi's trap every time?

Liu Yunhe felt his face getting hot, but he couldn't lift the boat, so he could only vent his anger on the oars.

When the oars left the lake, the water splashed several meters away, and the farthest part fell onto the boat where Xiao Yihuo and the other man were.

Water dripped onto the deck and quickly formed a small puddle.

Looking at the angry Liu Yunhe not far away, Qingchuan said with a smile: "In the past, Yunhe would only show such a childish look when he was with us. It seems that Yunhe and Brother Lezhi get along very well."

Xiao Yihuo lowered his eyes, smiled slightly and said, "I'm afraid you're going to learn bad things from me."

Hearing what Xiao Yihuo said, Qingchuan also laughed, and then looked in the direction of Lin Lezhi and said lightly: "Yun He is young and simple-minded, and it is easy for him to trust others. He should follow Brother Lezhi to gain more knowledge. For Yun He, learning bad things may not be a bad thing."

Lin Lezhi sat down next to the soldier, but the soldier didn't seem to notice his presence. He kept his head down and kept picking at his fingers. The skin on his fingers was broken and blood was oozing out under the skin.

"Soldier, your fingers will bleed if you keep going like this."

Hearing about blood, Cui Yan suddenly woke up from his deep thoughts and found that Lin Lezhi was looking at his hands. He quickly separated his tightly clenched hands and said with an evasive look: "No... It's okay, I just... was stunned."

Looking up, Cui Yan saw He Yu was about to take the oar from Guo Yong. He quickly stood up and walked quickly to He Yu's side. When he walked, his movements were so large that the fishing boat shook up and down.

Cui Yan took the oar from Guo Yong first, looked at He Yu with a worried expression and said, "Brother He, let me do it, you go and rest."

"It's just rowing a boat. It's okay. I joined the army earlier than you, so I have to do more."

He Yu reached out to grab the oar from Cui Yan's hand, but Cui Yan hurriedly dodged and still held the oar tightly. As the boat shook, the oar hit He Yu's arm.

"hiss……!"

He Yu let out a low groan, and his face instantly became very ugly and pale.

"S-Sorry, Brother He, I didn't mean it."

Cui Yan panicked and the oar in his hand fell onto the boat with a bang.

The people on the nearby boats had obviously noticed something was wrong with their boat and all looked over. He Yu quickly bent down to pick up the oars, laughing loudly and saying, "It's okay. I didn't hold it firmly for a moment."

After He Yu's explanation, the people on several nearby ships quickly put the matter behind them, but the soldiers on other ships obviously did not put it behind them.

The expressions on their faces were exactly the same as Cui Yan's.

Guo Yong said awkwardly: "How about...I should do it."

There was a commotion on the boat, and the two fishermen from Pinghai Town on the boat naturally couldn't sit still. They quickly stood up and said, "Two soldiers, we have been fishing and rowing the boat for many years. It's really uncomfortable to sit there and rest. Let us do it."

"Yes, if it weren't for you guarding the border all year round and resisting foreign enemies, how could we ordinary people live a stable life? Let us come, we can hold on for a while, no problem."

He Yu adjusted his state, looked at Cui Yan who was silent on the side, handed over the oar in his hand with a trembling arm, and said with gratitude: "Then I will trouble you brothers, thank you very much."

"Soldier, what are you talking about? You followed the general here to investigate the Lake Island case. We are the ones who should say thank you."

"Yes, we are the ones who should say thank you." The fisherman next to him also echoed: "It's windy on the lake this season, the two soldiers please go over there and sit down to rest, don't catch a cold."

"Yeah." He Yu nodded, patted Cui Yan and said, "Xiao Yan, let's go."

Cui Yan nodded woodenly, his expression full of self-blame and worry, and followed He Yu. The two sat on the other side of the boat.

Since the noise happened, the soldiers on other ships would cast their glances over here from time to time.

Lin Lezhi looked around.

From this point of view, it seems that there are not many soldiers rowing the boat, and the few who are rowing the boat are moving very slowly. The speed of the boat is slower than that of the boat rowed by the fishermen.

Not long after leaving the shore, Lin Lezhi looked around and found a bunch of things floating on the lake not far away. In order to see more clearly, Lin Lezhi stood up.

A fisherman noticed Lin Lezhi's actions and asked, "What are you looking at, sir?"

Lin Lezhi pointed to the lake and said, "Brother, do you see anything floating on the lake?"

Hearing the conversation between Lin Lezhi and the fisherman, Liu Yunhe also looked over curiously, and then said to Guo Yong beside him: "Brother Guo, can you help me hold on for a while? I want to rest for a while."

"Okay, give it to me."

Guo Yong stood up and took over Liu Yunhe's oar. As soon as the handover was completed, Liu Yunhe immediately jumped to Lin Lezhi's side and looked at the lake.

The fisherman squinted his eyes, looked at it, and then nodded and said, "It seems to be something."

Because the boat occupied a large area of ​​the lake, people on other boats also discovered the things in the lake.

As they got closer, the fisherman widened his eyes and said in surprise: "Isn't this the rope tied to the lantern boat?"

"Are you sure it's the rope on the lantern boat?" Lin Lezhi confirmed.

Hearing this, another fisherman nearby also looked toward the lake and said with certainty, "That's right. We prevent the rope from breaking and becoming difficult to retrieve, so every year we soak the special rope with grease. This way, even if the rope breaks, it won't sink to the bottom of the lake due to its weight in a short period of time."

"Look, you can still see oil on the lake." As he was talking, the fisherman scratched his head and asked in confusion, "But why are all the ropes concentrated here?"

After discovering the incident, Cheng Su ordered the ship to stop and salvage the damaged ship.

Because the rope is too long, the retrieval speed is not fast.

Lin Lezhi stood on the boat and looked towards the lakeshore. The fog had disappeared and he could see the lakeshore without any obstruction.

but……

Lin Lezhi’s eyes darkened.

At dawn, this distance was completely hidden in the fog.
