Tong Wen Yao glanced at Xiao Xue, soothed the ruffled hair on its back, and said lightly: "The boatman said that it is safe for you not to enter this woods. You should tell them later." Dong Zi nodded after hearing this, but at night, Wang Liao still left two people to guard the night, and replaced the other two in the second half of the night. Tong Wen Yao also slept uneasily at night and wanted to go to the toilet, but considering that the boatman said not to go near the woods, she did not go and returned to the boat.
When the night watchmen saw their employer going to the toilet, one of them quickly stood up and wanted to follow him, until Tong Wen Yao said that he was going on the boat and told him not to follow. Even so, he still went on board to check the boat inside and out before letting her in and he stayed outside to guard.
After entering, Tong Wenyao didn't use the restroom. Instead, she pulled out a telescope from her spaceship and peered at the island. The telescope had night vision, so she could see a lot of infrared radiation. She counted carefully and saw at least fifty or sixty people on the island, including those on duty outside. As for estimating how many were on the island, she couldn't. But considering the boatman's claim that they would be safe if they didn't go to the forest, did he have some kind of relationship with them? Or was he selling them off to the islanders?
There was a sound coming from the door, and she hurriedly responded after hearing it, putting the telescope back into the space, and then opened the door and came out. When Lu Gu saw Su Jingwen come out, his face was obviously relieved. If he hadn't been guarding outside, no one would have gotten in. He would have thought that his employer Su had been murdered! He didn't hear the sound from Master Su until he called out once or twice, and then he responded.
Afterwards, he was escorted to the beach. A tent had been set up on the beach for Su Jingwen to sleep. Xiaoxue lay down in it early. She was a little sleepy, so she went into the tent. Outside, Dongzi saw the boss coming back, so he also lay down in the tent next to the boss and began to sleep soundly.
Fortunately, nothing happened that night. After they drank seafood porridge in the morning, they started to board the boat and continued to head towards Luzhou.
Tong Wen Yao walked up to the boatman and started chatting with him.
"Uncle Fu, drink more water, it's hot!" Uncle Fu turned around and saw that the person he was talking to was a fair and tender young man. He quickly declined, "Young Master, no, no, I can drink it myself when I'm thirsty!"
He didn't take the cup from Tong Wenyao and continued to drive the boat. After yesterday's behavior, he had already seen that this young man in front of him was the leader of the group, so when he personally poured himself a cup of tea, he was obviously shocked!
This was different from the rich kids he had met before. The man in front of him respected him more and even called him Uncle Rich, while other rich kids would only order him around and even make him serve them humbly.
Sometimes you have to pretend to bark like a dog on the ground before they will give you some silver as a reward.
After being used to it for so long, he was a little uncomfortable being treated with such respect. He pinched the corner of his clothes, then let go. "Never mind, let them go to Luzhou!" He would wait for the next boat to take them to the island.
After collecting his thoughts, he concentrated on driving the boat, and the speed was much faster than the previous day. They were spending the night on the sea, and there happened to be a sheltered harbor nearby, so there was no need to worry about the boat drifting away with the wind.
This time, Tong Wen Yao was still using a telescope in the bathroom, but fortunately there were not many people in this bay, which made her feel a little relieved.
The next morning, Tong Wen Yao took a few pieces of pastries from the table and gave them to Uncle Fu. This time, Uncle Fu did not refuse. Instead, he took them with both hands and tasted them.
Seeing that Uncle Fu liked it, she quickly gave him the few cakes left on the table, "Uncle Fu, this cake is famous in Dongsuizhou. If you like it, eat more. There are more here."
Xiaoxue leaned over to her and leaned forward. Tong Wenyao quickly put the plate of cakes in his hands and said, "Uncle Fu, I'll take Xiaoxue to the deck to exercise."
Uncle Fu glanced at Xiaoxue, then smiled, waved his hand, and let her go out.
On this day, Tong Wen Yao took out the medical book and started reading again. In the afternoon, she went fishing with Dongzi on the deck. However, this might be the first time in her history that she had such a bad record. Others had a novice protection period, but she couldn't catch a single fish!
Fortunately, they finally arrived in Luzhou near dusk. Dongzi paid the remaining balance and then jumped off the boat. Tong Wenyao waved and said, "Uncle Fu, see you later!"
Uncle Fu uttered an "ah," grinning as he quickly paddled away. Tong Wenyao stared at the boatman until he disappeared into the sea, then fell into deep thought. Could it be that her previous analysis was wrong? Wasn't this boatman colluding with the people on the island?
They didn't dare let their guard down all the way, worried that the boatman would sell them out. Was she being overly suspicious? Seeing that the boss was still at the dock, Dongzi shouted, "Boss, hurry up, let's go take a carriage!" It was still a short distance from here to Luzhou, so they had to take a carriage. In fact, they could also take a boat to Luzhou. There was a Lu River here, but she had been vomiting on the boat these days, so she changed to taking a carriage. Along the way, they could also enjoy the scenery of Luzhou City.
There were also many small boats for rent at the pier. Wang Liao got off the boat early to rent a carriage. At this time, Dongzi was urging her to take the carriage.
As soon as the boatman left their sight, he immediately rowed the boat quickly and vigorously, and the speed was even faster than when they came. In less than half a day, they arrived at the safe haven where they rested yesterday. At this time, there were two people wearing armor on the island, who were questioning Uncle Fu in a stern voice, "Why didn't you send people up last night?" Their eyes were staring at him, as if his head would fall to the ground if he didn't give a good answer.
Uncle Fu immediately apologized profusely, "Calm down, officers! One of our men had a fever last night! Wasn't there plague a while ago? I'm wondering if this man has it too."
After these words were spoken, the two officers immediately stepped back and said, "In that case, you should not accept any guests for the next few days. Check if you have a fever. Then, you can receive guests and send them to Dongsui Island."
Uncle Fu kowtowed repeatedly, saying that he would definitely do it. After they left, Uncle Fu stood up.
On the other side,
Tong Wen Yao opened the carriage door and looked at the scenery on both sides. There was a flat area, and then there were mountains. Some of the mountains were grasslands, and there were many deer grazing on the grass. There was also a very big deer on the top of the mountain, with two very high horns. Even though there were two mountains between them, Tong Wen Yao could still see its tall white body, and even hear a lot of deer calls.
