Chapter 18 Li Dong Meets His Enemy
Bai Yue got up in a panic, cursing angrily in the car.
Mu and Yang frowned upon hearing this.
Mu said, "I told you to get on the bus a long time ago, you just didn't hear it. Now I haven't left you behind, be careful not to be heard by the police!"
Bai Yue thought they were beaten before they mocked her, and she became even angrier and scolded them too.
Mu remained silent, obviously having the same idea as her daughter.
Li Rong was driving, and the noise in the car was so loud that it was hard for him not to hear it.
This little bitch really deserves a beating. If it weren't for that female devil protecting her, he would have crippled her long ago!
He raised the whip in his hand and hit the carriage with a "snap!", scaring the people inside so much that they shrank back!
Bai Yu was so scared that she let out a "Wow!" but before she could even cry out, her mother, Mu, covered her mouth tightly.
They are not like Bai Yue who is ignorant of the immensity of the world and does not know what their current status is. They are still on the road of exile and are prisoners wearing prison uniforms!
Bai Yue didn't dare to yell anymore and whispered indignantly, "Why are those damned yamen runners so fierce? They just took the money Bai Li had given them to buy clothes. They have no sense at all!"
Mu said angrily, "If you do this again, I will tell Li'er to walk and not ride in the carriage anymore!"
Yang also spoke up: "That's right, if it weren't for Li'er, we would have to walk in shackles right now, and there would be no carriage to ride in!"
"You, you just bully me!"
The carriage entered the city amid the clamor of several women.
Bai Li opened the car window and looked out. The street he passed by was lined with shops, and the doors were crowded with people.
When we arrived at a crossroads, we saw all kinds of vendors and stalls, and the sounds of shouting and buying and selling could be heard one after another.
After seeing so many ugly and hateful zombies and the devastated environment, and not feeling the world full of people for a long time, Bai Li watched with great interest, and sighed in her heart that this was the real life. In her previous life, she was a zombie-fighting machine, fighting zombies as soon as she opened her eyes, and even fighting zombies when she slept.
"We've arrived at the post station!"
Li Dong shouted and asked everyone to put on shackles before getting off the carriage.
All the prisoners were lined up at the door waiting. If anyone paid attention, they would find that the prisoners here were clearly divided into two factions.
One group is calm and composed, with a rosy complexion;
One group had unkempt hair, sunken eyes and dark complexions.
Needless to say, the ones with rosy complexions are from the Bai family, and the ones with tanned complexions are from the Madhai tribe.
However, with Li Dong taking care of it, the people at the post station won't interfere. They will just roughly count the number of people and make sure they match them with the roster.
Bai Li thought it would be the same this time, so she stood behind her mother, waiting boredly.
Li Dong took the booklet and the documents and went inside, but he didn't expect to meet his mortal enemy this time.
"Zhao Hai, is that you? Why were you transferred here?"
"Why? Do I need your permission to be transferred to a new place?"
"I dare not."
Li Dong's heart was pounding. He hoped that his mortal enemy would be magnanimous and not take the opportunity to find fault with him.
Zhao Hai squinted his eyes and glanced at Li Dong, speaking in an official tone.
Someone had come to report it earlier, so of course Zhao Hai knew that Li Dong was coming.
In the past, he and Li Dong did not get along when they were working in the capital. Later, Li Dong was appreciated by his superior and became the head of the escort, which made Li Dong very envious and jealous.
Ordinary yamen runners only received one or two taels of salary a month, escort yamen runners received three taels, and the head yamen runners received five taels.
The profit from each trip is incalculable.
Later, he sent his own sister to Shangguan's bed, was appreciated by him, and then followed him to join the King of Wei, and only then did he get his current position.
After all, there was no deep hatred between him and Li Dong, they just disliked each other and did not like each other.
He finally showed his face again, and he didn't want to let him go just like that.
"Why are we only in Jincheng now? According to the route, we should have arrived five days ago!"
"Because we encountered bandits on the way, we were delayed for two days."
"Oh? What kind of bandit is so blind as to even dare to rob an exile group?"
Bandits generally don't rob exile teams, partly because they have no money.
The second reason is that the bandits did not want to confront the police.
"this……"
Li Dong couldn't put it into words, but secretly hated him in his heart: This Zhao Hai is so narrow-minded that he is looking for trouble here.
Zhao Hai became suspicious when he saw him hesitating, and stood up and walked out.
"I'll go and see if Bai Zongren is slowing down the team because he's disobeying discipline."
Before he could finish his words, he had already walked out.
"Oh! No..."
Li Dong chased after him and shouted, but unfortunately he reached the door in just a few steps.
Zhao Hai first checked the shackles and found nothing wrong.
Li Dong was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but the next second he frowned.
"What's going on with them?"
"What's going on?"
"Stop pretending! Look at them, do they look like criminals?"
Zhao Hai’s finger was about to poke Li Dong’s forehead, and he didn’t even bother to hide the smugness in his eyes.
Exploiting prisoners and enriching themselves was the tacit way for the higher-ups to compensate the yamen runners for their hard work.
But if we really bring it up and say it publicly, it would be a violation of the laws of the Great Zhou.
"Master Zhao, the Bai family has relatives who have given them money and gifts. Wouldn't it be too much to buy a carriage to get around?"
"There's no comparison between walking with a carriage and walking without one!"
If it were someone else, no one would find fault with what Li Dong said.
But Zhao Hai was determined to make things difficult for Li Dong today. If he didn't beg him humbly, he wouldn't stamp his passport and let him go!
Bai Li was awakened by the words "Sir Zhao". That's right, she fell asleep while standing just now.
This is a skill that is developed by fighting zombies in the apocalypse. When you are tired, you can find a safe place to take a nap and replenish your energy. Others cannot learn it even if they want to.
This is not important, what is important is that she has very serious gas!!
In the apocalypse, if she was woken up, she would fight zombies like crazy, but now?
She couldn't help herself when she saw Zhao Hai chattering.
Li Mingyue quickly grabbed her and shook his head at her seriously.
Bai Li endured it with his back teeth gritted, but Zhao Hai was still courting death.
"...The post station is full today. You will wait at the city gate until daybreak, and only after the superior official stamps your seal can you depart."
After saying that, he directly asked someone to drive the carriage. Bai Li was a little confused, so he asked directly.
"Since you tell us to leave, where are you driving our carriage to?"
As soon as Bai Li finished speaking, everyone in the post station burst into laughter.
"What do you mean your carriage? It's mine now that we're here. Don't you understand this little bit of etiquette?"
After Zhao Hai finished laughing, he was very satisfied with the sturdy and durable carriages. He was no longer so angry at Li Dong for not kneeling down to beg him.
Li Dong frantically hinted to Bai Li not to speak, as he was afraid that the situation would be difficult to control.
Unfortunately, who is Bai Li?
Can she bear this kind of humiliation?
Although she is now very rich, a few carriages are no problem for her.
But she was stubborn and insisted that no one could take what was hers, not even the emperor.
When Zhao Hai said that she didn't know the rules, she moved!
“Pah!”
One of them lost control and used too much force, causing Zhao Hai to spin left and right.
