Chapter 338: The Exile Team Sets Off into Yucheng
As his master Han Qiguang had expected, the people from Qinglong Village were indeed divided into two groups.
Li Cai led the men to count the number of people several times and found that although there were many people, the goods they were carrying did not seem to match, and many boxes could be lifted by two people without much effort.
Before leaving, Han Qiguang repeatedly reminded people not to rush into anything, to observe more, and to only take action when they were 70% to 80% sure.
With the boat turning around and firing a fake shot in front of him, Li Cai stared at the people transporting the goods below and still did not act rashly.
"Give the people below a letter and keep an eye on it."
Being so cautious was only because the cargo had not yet filled up all the ships. Li Cai's vague intuition still made him feel that something crucial was missing.
The men went down to inform the brothers guarding downstream and keep an eye on the movements of the boats coming down from above.
At the port, tests and counter-tests were staged one after another.
The exile team broke camp and set off the next day. There was no room for maneuver in the matter. Although the result was not as good as Tian Su'e had originally expected, it objectively ensured the safety of the Tian family in the next few days.
The Tian family caravan was detained by Qinglong Village, and Xiong Jiushan was "powerless to help" in this matter. He could respond to Xie Yuchuan's wishes, but would not interfere in other matters at will.
However, he did secretly remind Tian Su'e.
"Miss Tian, why don't you think about it for a few more days before making a decision? Since the gang has their plans, the safety of the Tian family should be guaranteed for the next few days."
Tian Su'e was anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
The police officer and the convict nearly lost their lives at her Tian's house. Because of this incident alone, she no longer had the right to ask Xiong Jiushan for help.
At the middle of the first hour, at the fourth watch, the escorts had gathered all the fugitives.
The Xie family was excited all night long. Most of them only took a nap for an hour or two before getting up to tidy up their clothes.
A thin but extremely tough protective vest was worn inside, and the clothes they wore as exiles were worn outside. Except for the tactical boots and telescopic baton on their feet, which were hidden in the vest inside, all other equipment of the Xie family was temporarily "deposited" by Xie Yuchuan in the system space lent to them by Tu Huanno.
Storage and retrieval are fully automatically monitored and handled by the system.
Xie Yuchuan didn't understand this part, and Tu Huan didn't need to explain it. It was fine as long as it was convenient to use.
Tu Huan went to bed early. After sending something to Xie Yuchuan, she took a shower and went to bed. Before going to bed, she made a reservation on her mobile phone at a breakfast shop that would be open after 6 o'clock the next morning.
Xiong Jiushan had been so worried that he hadn't slept all night. Half an hour before the team set off, he changed into his official uniform, leaned against the edge of the bed, and took a short nap.
The prisoners had a terrifying night and escaped death. After the fright, many of them slept well.
In the entire team, the two people with the best sleep quality are Tie Niu, who never worries about tomorrow's affairs, and Han Qiguang, who will never cause trouble for himself even if the sky is falling.
Inside and outside the fort, Tian Su'e was the same, keeping her eyes open until dawn.
At the beginning of the first hour of the Chinese New Year, the group of exiles stationed in the fort began to pack up and prepare to set off.
When Manager Tian heard the news outside, he got up, dressed, and went to find Tian Su'e in the dark.
"Miss, how do I give you the things?"
Things have come to this point, and Tian Su'e is not someone who goes back on her word, so she will just stick to the originally agreed number.
Tian Qing was silent for a moment, "Then what about our Tian family's expenses yesterday..."
"Never mind. This matter was caused by me. All expenses can be paid from my account."
"Okay." Tian Su'e never said much about the idea she had made.
Listening to the noise outside, Tian Qing said, "Is the young lady returning to the city?"
"Go back! Have someone prepare the carriages and horses. We will enter the city with Lord Xiong today."
"Alright, I'll get someone ready."
"Go ahead."
Tian Qing went to make arrangements. One task was to pick up the "supplies" for the journey that Tian Su'e had promised to give him, and the other was to pick out more than twenty young men from the village to accompany the eldest lady back to the city.
At four o'clock in the morning, the city gates of Yucheng County opened on time.
The gatekeeper, who was guarding the west gate, yawned as he came downstairs to take up his post.
The gates opened, and I thought that day after day would be just like before. However, I never expected that after the gates opened, there would not be hordes of people waiting outside in the cold wind.
Under the huge city gate, only a few people paid money to enter the city.
"It's strange! Where have all the people who used to come to the city to sell and buy goods gone? Where are they?"
The other soldiers also shook their heads, confused.
Looking at the pitiful "income" in the woven basket, the gate officer's face looked very ugly.
"Is it the same with the other city gates?"
The soldiers lowered their heads one after another. Who could know the answer?
At this moment, there was a noise coming from afar, the sound of many people walking together, with messy footsteps.
The "little kings of hell" at the city gates finally perked up.
In the distance, a group of people came from a distance.
Originally, the gatekeeper thought that it was a large merchant caravan passing through Yucheng, but when he saw the officials' attire and the huge group of prisoners from afar, the idea that had just arisen in his mind was dispelled.
On the contrary, Cheng Ye had already received Xiong Jiushan's order, so he threw a small bag of loose silver and a piece of wild boar meat into the woven basket beside the city gate.
On the right track!
The group of convicts, who had made a huge investment, entered the city smoothly.
Han Qiguang closed his eyes and woke up without a dream. He followed Xiong Jiushan into the city and naturally saw clearly what Xiong Jiushan asked his subordinate Cheng Ye to do.
After entering the city, "Master Guanghan" dismounted and walked in front of Xiong Jiushan.
"Sir, I will go and arrange accommodation for you. You may first go and see Mr. Feng, the magistrate of Yucheng."
"Okay, I'll have hundreds of households escort the fugitives to follow you. Please don't disturb the people."
"Don't worry, sir!"
Han Qiguang went to arrange a place to stay without telling Xie Yuchuan before leaving. The Xie family got up early in the morning to hurry on their way. Although breathing was laborious and exhausting in the early morning, they felt warm in their hearts.
Along the way, countless pairs of eyes were glued to the shoes worn by the Xie family, filled with envy.
I haven't seen it, but it looks comfortable.
There are not even any escorts!
At this time, the escorting police couldn't help but stare at the tactical boots worn by Xie Yuchuan and others.
Even their staff don’t have such a good thing.
Why does everyone in the Xie family have a pair?!
I can't figure it out.
The few servants who had participated in the scene where Taoist Guanghan personally summoned the gods for worship remained silent from beginning to end, and did not look at them too much. Even after being retorted with a reminder or two, they stopped talking.
When Xiong Jiushan passed by, he glanced coldly at the shoes of Xie Yuchuan and other members of the Xie family. He wanted to say something, but after thinking it over on his tongue for a few times, he held it back.
Just as he passed by Xie Yuchuan, he asked in a low voice, "Anything else?"
"have."
Xie Yuchuan's answer was extremely concise, just one word.
What else does Xiong Jiushan not understand?
Therefore, a pair of identical tactical boots appeared at the foot of Xiong Jiu Mountain on the way into the city.
Only your feet know whether the shoes fit you or not.
Xiong Jiushan also changed into the shoes given by Xie Yuchuan, and finally understood why Xie Yuchuan made his whole family wear new shoes when walking even though he was regarded as an alien by others.
This shoe is really good!
