Chapter 21: A Beautiful Disaster
By dusk on the hundredth day, the Ninefold looked like a field of lit seeds.
Forty-three boats waited above the narrows, each with a paper lantern at its bow.
There were ferry skiffs and washing barges, a temple punt with a bell in it, and the baker's raft of crates.
The baker's whole family sat on top of the crates, passing a tray of buns.
Steward Ma had coiled rope along both banks, and the Silverbell relay crew stood in the shallows with long poles.
Nobody was going to be hurt, because clause one was clause one.
Luoyi and Zhuyuan sat at the very front in a small plain skiff, exactly where the plan had put them.
Xiaohe had tied their oars together with red ribbon, for luck, in a knot nobody could undo.
"I have studied the current," said Zhuyuan, with the bright face of a man opening a favorite book.
"It turns left at the bend. We go into the reeds first."
"We're the cork," said Luoyi.
"We are the cork. It is going to work perfectly, and I find that very upsetting."
