Chapter 232: Beauty Trap
"It's all arranged."
Thinking of the conditions for entering Cangwu, Lu Shiyan's face suddenly turned cold.
To enter Cangwu, one not only needs a travel permit, but also has to pay a city entrance fee of one hundred taels of silver. How can the refugees afford so much silver?
The prefect of Cangwu has the word shameless carved on his forehead.
Jiang Tangtang didn't notice Lu Shiyan's expression. She was already rubbing her hands together, impatient, "So when are we leaving?"
Lu Shiyan glanced at the sky and said, "We might not be able to get into the city in time if we go there now, but we can go there in advance and wait."
Jiang Tangtang naturally had no objection. "Wait a moment, I'll ask Xiaowu to come over and explain a few things."
In fact, there is nothing much to explain. It is just giving Xiaowu the smoke that matches the poison in the meat paste.
After Jiang Tangtang explained the usage to him, she said, "If someone wants to cause trouble, you just—" She raised her hand and made a gesture of wiping her neck.
Xiaowu was full of admiration in his heart. She was indeed worthy of being the lady, and she had made preparations in advance!
He thought again of the two carriages that the caravan had deliberately left behind before leaving. Could that have some deeper meaning as well?
After explaining everything to Xiaowu, Jiang Tangtang and Lu Shiyan set off for Cangwu together.
The place where they rested was not too far from Cangwu City, but it was already dark when the two arrived outside the city gate.
The small door next to the city gate had already been closed.
As Lu Shiyan expected, the two of them had to camp outside the city for one night and enter the city tomorrow.
Like them, there were many people waiting outside the city gate.
The two men's carriage passed by and immediately attracted a lot of people's attention.
Jiang Tangtang and Lu Shiyan specially changed to a carriage with an older appearance and a spacious interior when they went to Lingnan this time.
Although the two men's carriage looked old, the shafts, wheels and other parts of the carriage were all made of the best materials, and the carriage was very sturdy.
Those who don't know much about this carriage might not be able to see its value, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the horse pulling it is no ordinary horse.
In such troubled times, ordinary people have trouble even filling their stomachs, so who can afford to raise a horse?
Anyone who can afford to keep a horse is either rich or noble.
Moreover, the horse pulling the cart is very strong, with smooth and shiny fur, and it is obviously a top-quality horse.
Such a good horse was actually used to pull a cart, which shows how rich the owner of the cart was.
For a moment, the hearts of the people outside the city gate were in turmoil, and they all looked at the carriage with burning eyes.
Some people even clenched the knives in their hands, waiting for the right opportunity to rush forward.
The horses are so good that I can't even begin to understand how many treasures there are in the carriage.
But when the people on the carriage got off, they looked at the refugees in the carriage like wolves and suddenly dared not move.
Jiang Tangtang was fine. Although she darkened her skin tone with foundation, her facial features were well-defined and her figure was petite. When she dressed as a man, she looked like a young boy who was not even twenty years old.
But Lu Shiyan's aura was too strong, and he dressed himself to look older and more mature, looking ferocious. Just a glance from him was enough to make the hairs on his body stand up.
The aura all over his body shows that he is not someone to be trifled with.
But there were also those who were conceited and did not believe in evil, so they gathered a group of desperate criminals and hid in the dark and whispered to each other.
"We just need to focus on dealing with the bearded man. Don't worry about the bunny boy next to him. When we're done, we'll sell him to the Xianggu Pavilion, which will be another source of income." A skinny man with thin eyebrows, small eyes, a pointed chin and monkey cheeks said in a low voice.
"How can we sell it to Xianggu Pavilion? It costs one hundred taels of silver to enter the city. Can that Bunny Boy be worth one hundred taels of silver?" someone asked.
"You don't have to worry about this. I, your brother Yang, have my own ways. As long as we can get the person, selling him to Xianggu Pavilion will be a piece of cake." said the skinny man who spoke earlier.
"Don't mention it, that Bunny Boy is really handsome. If anyone has connections, send him to Lord Shan." A man with obscene manners winked, "I'm afraid it might even bring a better future to our brothers."
"The prefect is fond of men?" someone asked in surprise.
One of the men, whose face was covered in acne and had bumps like cinnamon, said, "He's more than just a good man. I heard he's quite perverted. He likes men who look effeminate and are younger..."
"Damn it! We don't even have food to eat, but he's like a toad fucking a frog—ugly but fun."
After everyone angrily cursed the government office, they started talking about the robbery again.
After everyone had discussed how to divide the spoils after the murder, a young man who had been hidden in the darkness and remained silent all this time slowly spoke up, "You've overlooked one person."
Looking at the handsome but gloomy young man in the corner, Yang Cheng subconsciously frowned, "Who?"
"That coachman wearing a rotten straw hat. I advise you to forget it and not to provoke people you shouldn't provoke." The young man stood up after saying this, obviously not intending to participate in tonight's action.
"What do you mean?" Several big men stood up and blocked the boy's way. "Do you want to tell on someone?"
"I won't tell on anyone, but I won't get involved either," the young man said coldly.
"Then you can't leave either. Who knows if you're going to tell on someone?" Everyone stopped him.
The young man didn't say much, but just looked at Yang Cheng with a cold expression.
Yang Cheng raised his hand, waved to the big men and said, "Let him go."
"Brother Yang, if we just let him go like this, what if..."
"Don't worry, he won't." Yang Cheng thought about some things that happened after he met the boy, and felt inexplicably uneasy.
Perhaps because Yang Cheng didn't give him any trouble, the young man gave one last piece of advice before leaving, "That driver is obviously a master of internal martial arts. You can't even beat him, let alone anything else."
After saying that, the boy left without looking back.
Leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.
After a long while, someone finally said, "Brother Yang, what's wrong with that kid?"
"Exactly, what depressing words are you talking about? Damn, it's bad luck!"
Everyone cursed at once, and when they saw Yang Cheng staring at the boy's back for a long time without saying a word, they asked anxiously, "Brother Yang, you didn't really believe what he said, did you?"
Yang Cheng gritted his teeth and hissed, "That kid is really a bit weird. I don't know where he comes from, but he knows a lot. What he said must have a reason."
"So that's it?"
Someone said with a fierce look on his face, "Even if the driver is a tough guy, I'm going to give it a try today."
"If you don't fight, you'll die, so why not give it a try!"
Yang Cheng hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Let's do it!"
Now that we know that the driver also knows Kung Fu, we definitely can't go according to the method we discussed before.
Everyone gathered together and discussed their plan for action that night.
In addition to those who want to rob by brute force, there are also those who want to use the beauty trap.
However, the target of this beauty trap was not Lu Shiyan, but the seemingly weak Jiang Tangtang.
Looking at the pitiful girl in front of her who kept rubbing against her under the pretext of delivering water, Jiang Tangtang felt a sense of both laughter and tears.
She never imagined that one day she would be seduced by someone using his beauty.
