Chapter 114 Shen Yuanjing and Shen Yuantang have not returned yet?
Wei Dongzhu's eyes changed, and his whole body was filled with murderous intent!
When Shen Lanxi returned to the dock, Wei Dongzhu had already massacred the entire dock.
Upon seeing Shen Lanxi return, Wei Dongzhu paused, then slew her last life with a single sword strike.
"They were all in disguise, rebel rioters. Every ship that stopped at the shore was killed by them!"
Just like she thought!
Shen Lanxi said, "These people deserved it!"
Hearing her say that, Wei Dongzhu breathed a sigh of relief.
He just asked some questions.
"This place has been occupied by a self-proclaimed Northwest King, a leader of refugees. The local authorities have already dispatched troops to suppress him, and the Northwest King has led his men to meet the enemy!"
Shen Lanxi sneered: "You can't even figure out the direction, but you have quite the ambition! Taking advantage of the drought in the north, any wild monkey dares to come out and call itself king!"
This place is already in the northeast, what does it have to do with the west? Could it be that this refugee is planning to lead his troops to conquer the northwest?
Wei Dongzhu's lips curled up slightly, but he quickly suppressed it and said seriously, "According to them, the Northwest King should have gathered at least fifty or sixty thousand troops."
Shen Lanxi: "The local garrison will not exceed five thousand. Even if the two places join forces to wipe them out, the total force will not exceed ten thousand." This is not a border area or other similar place; they will not station so many troops here!
"Let one ship dock, replenish food and water, and leave before the Northwest King's men retreat!"
Wei Dongzhu: "Yes!"
Shen Lanxi watched as Wei Dongzhu took out a command flag and waved it, then turned around and kicked open the grocery store!
This grocery store is located here not to sell goods, but to provide logistical support for the people on the shore.
The shopkeepers had already blocked the shop door and hidden themselves when Wei Dongzhu went on his killing spree.
Unexpectedly, Shen Lanxi burst through the door, and everyone was so frightened that they fled in panic!
These mobs occupy a certain area, and they must have committed arson, murder, and looting without exception. She has no need to talk about morality.
One kick sent one of the intimidating figures flying.
"If any of you come out breathing, lead us to water, and we'll spare your lives!"
A slightly older man was pushed forward.
When she came out with her people, one of the ships had already docked.
Liu Laohu was the first to jump down from above.
"Damn it, I'm finally on solid ground!" Liu Laohu stomped his feet nostalgically. How long had it been since he felt so grounded? Drifting at sea every day, his legs felt like they were about to give out.
"Brother Liu, I've made arrangements. He'll lead us to find water!"
Liu Laohu: "Alright, leave it to me!"
"Hurry! This place has been taken over by rioters, and they'll be back soon!"
Liu Laohu's relaxed expression immediately tensed up.
"Damn it, why can't I find a peaceful place?"
Liu Yanhui called down all the agile people on the boat, found two cars, and had Wei Jiajun escort them to run to fetch water!
Those who didn't go to fetch water were called down by Madam Song to collect their belongings.
Inside the general store, there were dead bodies scattered all over the floor. Was there no food in the store? Were the dead people without any money?
Even the smallest thread is useful to Madam Song!
Liu Yanhui is a master at managing accounts, but not so good at collecting debts. Fortunately, Song Niangzi is shameless and will do anything, including throwing tantrums and threatening suicide. Shen Lanxi specially promoted her to be Liu Yanhui's deputy for the time being.
The wicked should be tempered by the wicked. Let Madam Song handle the things that Liu Yan Hui is too embarrassed to do!
The first batch of water was quickly delivered back. When these people returned, Shen Lanxi went to the local government office for a visit.
Just as she expected, once the mob gained power, they would first occupy the local government office.
Inside the government treasury, there were mountains of gold, silver, and grain.
Judging from the amount involved, this should be the headquarters of the Northwest King!
This Northwest King really chose a good place!
Unfortunately, all of these gains ended up benefiting her!
After the water was collected, one boat was full of water, and the other boat was one-third full!
"I've found a place where grain is stored, not far from here. Go and bring some men to transport it!"
She put it in there on purpose to save time; once it's full of water, she can leave immediately!
Feng Wu returned in a hurry.
He just led his bodyguards to the intersection and the surrounding area to keep watch.
"A large force is heading this way, including cavalry. They will arrive within a quarter of an hour!"
This time was enough to bring back the supplies she had placed there.
Fortunately, she chose a place that was very close by!
"The people who brought the water back should not go back!"
"yes!"
"Those searching for supplies, board the ship!"
Madam Song shouted at the top of her lungs, "Get on the boat!"
Before long, the last water truck returned, and the people transporting supplies arrived shortly after.
Shen Lanxi glanced in the direction of the hiding spy. Those should be the people left here by the Northwest King. Unfortunately, a rabble is a rabble. After being intimidated by Wei Dongzhu, they only dared to hide far away and spy.
"Everyone, listen to my command, board the ship!"
"yes!"
Just as the boat was about to set off, Shen Yuanxin suddenly shouted.
"Big brother and Yuan Tang haven't returned yet!"
Shen Lanxi's sharp eyes swept over them: "What did they go about?"
Shen Yuanxin felt flustered under their gaze and stammered, "I don't know, I just saw that they weren't there!"
Shen Lanxi gave her a deep look, and the next second she jumped off the boat with one hand.
"The two large ships will go first, leaving a small boat behind to provide backup!"
After saying that, Shen Lanxi ran towards the town!
~
"Brother, hurry up, don't let big sister find out!"
"Okay, don't rush me." Shen Yuanjing hurriedly picked up his things and quickly left with his sister.
Just as they reached the corner, there were two loud thuds, and the brother and sister, one in front of the other, rolled their eyes back and fainted!
"Angry White, search!"
"Received, Master!"
"They're moving; someone's leading them towards the town entrance!"
It was definitely those rioters who did it; they wanted to take Yuan Jing and Yuan Tang to join up with the Northwest King!
Running to a secluded spot, Shen Lanxi led a fast horse out of her spatial storage, cracked the whip, and galloped towards the town entrance!
In the blink of an eye, they caught up.
About twenty refugees were pulling a cart, which, in addition to Shen Yuanjing and Shen Yuanxin, also contained many other people who had been tied up.
They must be people from the ship that arrived at the shore earlier than them!
He leaped forward with lightning speed, reaching the carriage. He struck swiftly, one punch after another, and in the blink of an eye, all the rioters lay on the ground, their fates unknown!
Shen Lanxi took a water pouch from the waist of one of the rioters and poured it on the faces of Shen Yuanjing and Shen Yuanxin.
"Cough cough cough..."
The two woke up after choking on water.
"Big...Big brother! Cough cough cough..." Shen Yuanjing struggled to sit up.
Where am I?
Seeing that the two of them were awake, Shen Lanxi threw the water pouch on them and turned to leave.
"Walk!"
Shen Yuanjing looked at the rioters lying on the ground and the people lying with them on the cart, his face turned pale, and he quickly helped his sister sit up and chased after them!
After running a few steps, Shen Yuanjing looked back.
They were saved, but what about the others in the carriage?
The older sister seems angry. If he stops now and goes back to save them, he will definitely upset her!
"Big brother, let's hurry up and leave. It's too dangerous outside. I wish we hadn't gotten off the boat!" Shen Yuantang muttered, rubbing the back of his head.
