Chapter 337: Ouch! Are you guys quite cunning?
Yun Lan nodded. "It's been a few years. Maybe the time is coming soon."
"If you don't feel well, don't force yourself to go back to Guanzhai as soon as possible. As long as you have the green mountains, you will never lack firewood."
Her slender fingertips pinched the ink stick and slowly formed a circle. Yun Lan whispered softly, "I want to see with my own eyes what his end will be."
A long sigh.
"By the way, the people who came have been urging Qinglongzhai to send out the boat tomorrow. The person who came later said that others should go explore the mountain."
Madam Yu thought for a moment and said, "Touching the mountain might mean going down to the river."
"Well, I guess that's possible."
Madam Yu finished writing quickly and folded it into a scroll. After a while, she took out a carrier pigeon from the inner room, observed it through the back window for a long time, and then released it into the night sky.
Close the window and turn around.
Seeing Yun Lan lowering her head and looking a little absent-minded, she couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
A pretty face, as beautiful as a peach blossom, looked up, its moist eyes sparkling. Yun Lan asked curiously, "I heard that the eldest daughter of the Tian family invited soldiers to guard the Tian family. Is this true or false?"
"They're not that powerful. They're just a group of officials escorting fugitives. They don't have much real power. Even among the escorting officials, there are more people from the government office than from the military camp. Miss Tian is desperate and has resorted to this desperate measure."
Yun Lan tilted her head slightly, but said, "But I see that Wan Lichun is very angry about the Tian family's affairs."
Madam Yu was stunned: "Huh?"
Yun Lan said, "At noon, someone came to see him. I occasionally heard a few words about the Tian family and the doctor in the city, but I didn't hear anything else. Anyway, he was out for a while, and when he came back, he looked very bad."
"so?"
"Um."
If this is the case, then Miss Tian may have found the right person this time.
Yun Lan thought for a moment and said, "I've never seen him in such a difficult situation. Sister Yu, do you think the eldest daughter of the Tian family really invited a god-like person to her place?"
"How is that possible?" Madam Yu denied it without even thinking.
"Yunlan, the dead cannot be resurrected. Don't be stubborn. Otherwise, just like Doctor Lu said, if you keep going like this, you'll end up hurting your own body."
"I know, I'm just asking."
"well--"
After a while, Yun Lan murmured again, "Perhaps there really are gods in this world, otherwise why would Wan Lichun be so fearful this time?"
Madam Yu looked at her: "..." She didn't know how to persuade her.
"He has never been an indecisive person." Yun Lan said.
"There must be something beyond his control."
Madam Yu looked at her, her eyes full of worry. "Since that jerk Wan Lichun is not here, don't go back tonight. Just sleep here. I'll stay with you."
"Okay." Yun Lan said with a smile.
Fifteen miles outside Yucheng is Shuhe Port.
More than a dozen empty boats were lined up closely together in a row, and there was only an old man wearing a coarse cloth and a straw robe guarding the shore.
The oil lamp was dim, illuminating only a small part of the water surface. From time to time, the rustling of leaves in the wind could be heard from the forests on both sides of the river. Occasionally, a few forest birds would fly up. The surroundings were quiet, yet there was a hint of danger.
Before Han Qiguang left, he sent his most intelligent subordinate Li Cai here. He led the team personally and half of Xie Yuchuan's men to ambush around this place.
Han Qiguang and Xie Yuchuan discussed it and still felt that Wan Lichun would never be someone who would take the lead and take risks just because he listened to other people's instigation.
In addition to what Han Qiguang saw and heard while disguising himself in Qinglong Village, it is clear that Wan Lichun's willingness to form a gang and act together with so many gangs must be driven by huge interests.
The gains from robbery are limited.
There was no more money to be made than the floating treasures on the road, so Xie Yuchuan asked Han Qiguang to focus on bringing people to the other side and keep a close eye on the things being transported out of Qinglong Village.
They don't necessarily have to do this themselves.
If Wanlichun can borrow people, so can they.
The news had long been secretly released from Panlong Ridge by Zhao Gong, who had sneaked into the mountains.
The rest depends on who has the courage to come and find out what's going on.
While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits.
Li Cai brought his men here and waited to see how the situation would develop. Unfortunately, after waiting for a whole day, there was no movement from the dozen or so boats on the shore.
Li Cai was a little puzzled.
Could it be that Zhao Gong didn't use enough force?
However, Li Cai is a very patient person.
It doesn’t matter if there is no movement after waiting for a whole day. After all, the master left them a lot of good things before leaving.
Although there may not be a head-on confrontation at that time, with the current manpower he has, he still has the ability to stir up trouble if a situation really occurs.
only……
He looked up at the moon.
It’s already this late, when do these bandits plan to move the goods?
The master and the general will enter the city tomorrow. If they fight on both sides at the same time, they are outnumbered and both sides will be overwhelmed. That would not be a good thing.
It's so quiet around here.
It's quiet and makes people think about many things.
Li Cai was squatting in the dense forest and could not see any changes below.
I don’t know if the master can win the favor of the Xie family gods and fulfill his wishes by bringing so many things back to offer to them.
"Boss Li, what are you thinking about?"
"I miss my master."
“Hahahahahaha——”
There was a low laugh all around.
Li Cai scolded, "You only know how to laugh. Pay attention tonight and keep your eyes open. Report any situation immediately. If you delay the master's important affairs, I won't be able to plead for you later."
"Don't worry! Our eyes are wide open!"
Only then did Li Cai show a look of satisfaction on his face.
After guarding like this, another hour passed.
Just when everyone was bored and almost falling asleep, someone suddenly whispered, "Boss, someone's coming!"
Li Cai instantly became alert!
A group of people who had been hiding in the grass all day long finally waited for someone to come.
Suddenly, several heads appeared from the foot of an indistinct dark mountain in the distance. They were wearing black and gray clothes that made it impossible to identify their faces, and they were carrying bags of unknown things on their shoulders. They walked out of the dense forest tentatively, and then staggered along the foot of the mountain.
When they got closer to the shore, Li Cai saw through the camera that they were whispering to each other with the old man on the boat.
They were a little far away, so they couldn't hear clearly.
All that could be heard was a faint buzzing sound in the air.
If you get too close, you're afraid of being exposed.
It's too far away and I can't get a clear picture.
Not long after, Li Cai and his friends saw those men climbing onto the boat with bags on their backs.
"Boss, do you want to get closer?"
Li Cai raised his hand to stop him, "Don't move, wait a moment."
After waiting for so long, how could there be only three or two people taking the boat?
Li Cai was a little skeptical.
But if we release these people, since they are crucial, then...
Li Cai's intuition told him to wait a little longer.
After a while, the boat with several people on board paddled out and went down the river.
"Boss! Shall we go and stop them down there?"
Li Cai pursed his lips and thought for a while, "Wait a little longer."
He always felt that something was wrong.
Of those people boarding the boat, only one old man spoke up? The others were indifferent?
After the boat rowed several dozen meters away, Li Cai was about to regret it when he suddenly saw the boat in front of him suddenly turn around and row back in a swagger!
Li Cai thought to himself: Oh my god!
The boat docked, and a few whistles were blasted to signal the arrival of the ship.
Suddenly, many people walked out from the dark forest...
