Chapter 344: Chapter 344: Cleaning the Toilet

In mid-spring, the warm wind is intoxicating, and thousands of boats are passing by on the river.

Xu Qian'an stood on the deck and looked out, watching the pontoons, official ships, and tower ships sailing slowly, with the sails bulging to the limit, and he was in a trance and returned to last year.

But it was midwinter at that time, and the wind blowing from the river was as sharp as a cut, unlike the bright spring now. Not far from the shore, there were flocks of wild ducks, which were so plump that people could swallow their saliva.

The distance was too far, and my Qi could not be captured... The martial arts system is really low-level. I can't even fly at the sixth level... Xu Qian'an sighed in disappointment.

Even if it is Qinggong, it is far from being able to walk on water, and there must be floating objects.

Perhaps he can only float on the water with his feet when he reaches the fifth level of Huajin.

"Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao are not here, and without Lao Song as the supporting actor, how boring this journey is." Xu Qian'an sighed.

Just as I thought of this, I saw an acquaintance dressed as a maid in an indigo dress coming to the deck.

She was 30-35 years old, of ordinary appearance, with a proud temperament between her eyebrows and eyes, and a smile on her eyes and eyebrows, as if she came out to enjoy the warm and pleasant river breeze.

The two found each other almost at the same time, and the woman's face suddenly fell. "Aunt, why are you here?"

Xu Qian'an stared at her in disbelief.

Aunt..... The woman's face twitched slightly, and she snorted coldly: "It's not that enemies don't meet."

I should have thought that his ability to solve cases was first-class in the world. How could he be sent for a case like the bloody massacre of three thousand miles.

Chu Xianglong told her that this trip to the north was to conceal the truth, and there was sufficient escort force, so he chose to set off with the delegation investigating the "bloody massacre of three thousand miles".

She knew about this case, but as for who was the chief officer, she was in a very bad mood at the time and was too lazy to ask.

"Aunt, why are you here?" Xu Qian'an looked at her.

"What does it have to do with you?"

The woman said with a cold face, "Don't call me aunt in the future. Who is your superior? Who is the chief officer of the delegation? If you dare to call me aunt again, I will let him deal with

you."

"Aunt, aunt, aunt, aunt..." Xu Qian'an shouted repeatedly.

This bastard... The woman was furious, her chest heaving with anger, she glared at him fiercely, and said: "You wait for me."

She left angrily.

Jiaofangsi, Yingmei Pavilion.

Fuxiang slept until the sun was high before waking up, wearing a thin gauze dress, bathing and dressing with the help of the maid.

The personal maid chuckled and said, "Is Lord Xu going to leave Beijing for business again?"

Fuxiang was stunned, tilted her head, and looked at the maid in surprise, "How did you know?"

The maid pursed her lips and chuckled, "The bed was rocked until three o'clock yesterday. Lord Xu usually pities the lady and will never make trouble so late."

Fuxiang said angrily, "You little girl, you are getting bolder and bolder. You even dare to tease me."

While laughing and joking, the maid was suddenly shocked. Her face was extremely strange. She trembled and said, "Mother, lady...you have white hair."

Fuxiang's smile slowly faded, and she said lightly, "Just pull it out. What's the big deal?"

After dressing up, she sent the maid away and sat alone in front of the mirror, staring at her charming face, and remained silent for a long time.

"Bang!"

The woman pushed open Chu Xianglong's door. She was wearing a maid's uniform and pinched her waist, angrily saying, "A guy in the night watchman's office made me angry." Chu Xianglong, who was sitting cross-legged and treating the hidden injuries in his meridians, opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows: "Who is it?"

The woman did not show any emotion at this time, and said word by word: "Xu Qi'an, the silver gong."

She had been bullied by Xu Qi'an several times. Although she had avenged the gold that hit her, she had been taken advantage of by that guy when she watched Monk Jingsi fight in the

ring last time.

The princess thought that she was a woman, so she endured it with grievance. She didn't expect that this guy was addicted to bullying her, and it was actually the aunt who slandered

her just now.

Chu Xianglong frowned, "What did he do to you?"

"He offended me." The princess's expression was cold, and the maid's clothes and mediocre facial features could not hide her nobleness. She said calmly:

"Don't go too far. It's not a big deal. Just a small punishment and a big warning."

After saying that, seeing that Chu Xianglong did not agree, but frowned, she frowned slightly and sneered: "Even if I go to the north, I will still be the princess."

Chu Xianglong shook his head, "Princess, you misunderstood, that boy... is the chief officer of this trip to the north."

The princess opened her mouth slightly, her eyes were slightly dull.

Chu Xianglong continued, "But don't worry, he won't be so proud for long. I will punish him. Even if he is the chief official appointed by His Majesty, it is only temporary. Silver gong is silver gong. Even if he is given the status of viscount, he is still a small person after all."

As a general with real power, the deputy general of the King of Zhenbei, he really doesn't take ordinary nobles and officials seriously.

Three days passed in a flash, and the waterway was relatively stable. Such a large official ship would not encounter pirates. With its large scale and high grade, anyone can see that there are big figures of different status living on the ship.

And such big figures are often accompanied by masters and elite guards. Ordinary pirates only dare to target small merchant ships and occasionally attack small government pontoons. However, there is one thing that makes Xu Qian'an very distressed. The rainfall in spring is abundant, and the river is turbulent. It is not as calm as in winter. From time to time, there will be river wind and big waves.

For people living in the cabin, it is uncomfortable, but not unbearable. But the imperial guards living in the cabin were in a bad condition, and several of them had fallen ill.

That day, after lunch, Xu Qian'an was sitting cross-legged in his room breathing, and "dong dong", there was a knock on the door.

Xu Qi'an, who had heard the footsteps in advance, opened his eyes and frowned, saying,

"Come in."

The door was not locked and was easily pushed open. A short man stepped over the threshold, bowed his head and clasped his fists, saying:

"Sir."

This short but strong man was the leader of the imperial guards, Centurion Chen Xiao.

Xu Qi'an said unhappily, "What's the matter?"

He was a little annoyed that this crude soldier didn't know etiquette and disturbed his

practice.

"Sir, many soldiers are sick, please go and see them." After Chen Xiao finished speaking, he seemed to be afraid that Xu Qi'an would refuse, and hurriedly added:

"I am afraid that it will cause an epidemic and endanger the adults on the ship."

This reason attracted Xu Qi'an's attention, and he immediately put on his boots and went to

the bottom of the cabin with Centurion Chen Xiao.

"Dongdong..."

Under the leadership of Chen Xiao, Xu Qian'an walked along the wooden steps into the cabin, and a dull and unpleasant smell rushed into his nose, the smell of sweat, mold, and

ammonia...

This is because the air is not circulating, but it is crowded with people. They sleep and excrete

at the bottom of the cabin, so bacteria breed, and coupled with seasickness... People with

weak constitutions will fall ill.

Those who are not sick will also appear listless.

Hearing the footsteps, pairs of eyes looked over, and after replaceing that it was their superiors

and the chief officer of the delegation, the soldiers straightened their backs and remained

silent.

Xu Qian'an walked to the bed of a soldier who kept coughing and had a low fever. The so- called bed was actually a narrow and simple wooden board, so that the cabin could accommodate hundreds of soldiers.

"It's nothing serious. I have a detoxification pill from the Astronomical Bureau. Just dissolve one pill in water and everyone who is sick will be cured after drinking a sip."

Xu Qi'an made a judgment and immediately reached into his pocket, tapped the surface of the jade mirror, and poured out a porcelain bottle.

After dripping blood to recognize the owner, the Earth Book has a close connection with the

owner, and can take things as he pleases, without worrying that the things inside will pour

out.

He gave Chen Xiao a detoxification pill and asked him to crush it and throw it into the water bag to distribute to the sick soldiers.

The high-level pills from the Astronomical Bureau had an immediate effect. The sick soldiers were surprised to replace that their lungs were no longer uncomfortable, their coughs were relieved, and their minds went from drowsy to clear. Except for being a little weak, their

physical condition had changed dramatically.

"No more discomfort..."

"I'm fine."

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."

The other soldiers also smiled, looking at Xu Qi'an with more gratitude and enthusiasm in

their eyes.

Xu Qian'an nodded slightly, then glanced at the toilet under the bed, couldn't help frowning,

and scolded:

"Why are you all hiding in the cabin? Why don't you go to the deck to get some fresh air? It's so smoky, it's strange that you don't get sick."

One hundred people, one hundred toilets, it seems that they don't clean them frequently,

which is equivalent to living in a toilet. The air is not circulating. Spring is the season for bacteria to grow, how can you not get sick.

If you can be more diligent, clean the toilet every day, and go outside to get some fresh air every day, with the physique of the soldiers, they should not fall ill easily.

"This..."

Facing Xu Qi'an's questioning, Chen Xiao showed a bitter expression and said, "General Chu

has ordered that we are not allowed to leave the cabin or go on the deck. Brothers usually eat

dry food in the cabin." Hearing this, Xu Qi'an's face sank, staring at Chen Xiao, and asked, "Why?"

"General Chu ordered that there are women on the ship, and they often go to the deck for a

walk and view. He is afraid that we will offend the women. If you disobey, you will be beaten with twenty military sticks."

The sick soldier said while coughing.

Xu Qi'an did not respond, and his eyes swept across the dim cabin again, across the soldiers

who stood up straight, and across the toilets at their feet.

The damp and stinky smell in the air seemed to be a hundred times stronger at this moment,

making Xu Qi'an want to escape from here.

And these soldiers have to sleep here, rest here, and even eat in such an environment.

Chen Xiao looked at him silently.

A hundred pairs of eyes looked at him silently.

Xu Qian'an suddenly understood that this visit was a cover-up, and the real purpose was to let

him do justice. Soldiers are also human beings, and they can no longer tolerate such an environment, and

their hearts are full of resentment. At the same time, in their eyes, Xu Yinluo is the chief officer of this mission, the chief officer appointed by the court.

They have grievances and demands, and they can only replace Xu Qian'an, and they also believe

that only Xu Yinluo can do justice for them.

If the chief officer also makes them shrink in the bottom of the cabin and is not allowed to go

out, then they will give up.

"I only have one order now." Xu Qian'an frowned.

"Please give your orders, sir." Chen Xiao bowed his head and clasped his fists.

"Please give your orders, sir."

The soldiers stood up, bowed their heads and clasped their fists.

Xu Qian'an pointed to the deck above his head and shouted: "Go up and clean the toilet."

"Yes!"

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."

"Go, go, go, clean the toilet, I can't stand this smell anymore."

Cheers rang out all of a sudden.
