Chapter 140: Strange People and Strange Scenes
Chen Chunxing did not comment, did not say anything more about the matter, and changed the subject.
"Actually, I didn't come here specifically to see Madam, but I happened to meet you while I was looking for a doctor."
While they were talking, both of them had already taken off their face masks.
Chu Mei carefully examined their faces and didn't see anything wrong. She quickly thought of the key point and frowned, "But the patient was stopped on the other side?"
"You can't say I stopped him..." Chen Chunxing shrugged, not wanting to talk about Xue Yongan's heroic behavior. He stood up and looked outside. He muttered to himself, "Someone should be here by now."
Seeing the two were about to leave, Chu Mei wanted to follow them, but after leaving the door, she stopped and looked embarrassed.
"Miss Shen, it's not that I intend to refuse, it's really... I made an agreement with the city lord that day that you are not allowed to leave this courtyard easily."
That's why strange rules were set.
Chen Chunxing smiled in understanding, and without asking any more questions, he pointed to the other side of the river and said softly, "Don't worry, Madam. Someone will bring the injured to you."
Hearing the familiar words, Chu Mei was stunned. She watched the two people fly back to the other side and were surrounded by a group of burly men. She couldn't help but clench her hands.
"Quick! Go and inform..."
Before he finished speaking.
The big men have already fallen into the river, and a new round of beating up has begun on the shore. Everyone is very excited and very excited to have a few more targets!
The few we just had were not enough for them to share!
Chu Mei closed her mouth and looked strange.
Recalling the conversation just now, it suddenly occurred to me that Miss Shen had never shown any fear. Whether she was mentioning the City Lord or hearing the name of Prince Li, she displayed an unusually calm indifference.
——
Chen Chunxing squatted on the shore bored and disappointed: "That's it?"
After all, he has the support of Prince Li. Even if he doesn't have to mobilize troops, he should at least find some experts. Why is it like playing house... a bit of a joke?
This time, Xue Yongan personally found a long pole for her.
Just watch her take the photo.
Chen Chunxing took pictures for a while before another wave of thugs arrived.
As usual, Xue Yongan kicked him into the river in a few moves.
The crowd applauded!
More and more people gathered around to watch the fun.
Bu Yao stood there blankly, her nervousness gone. She had seen many storms before, but a scene like today's was something she could hardly encounter even in her dreams.
The younger sister of the Shen family is truly an extraordinary person!
"Don't just watch, come too, just treat it as a way to relieve stress." Chen Chunxing handed the long pole to Bu Yao, as if he didn't see the helpless look on her face.
The commotion in the south of the city was so loud that it quickly spread in all directions. It wasn't until thirty or forty heads were floating on the water that the noise finally died down.
At this time.
Suddenly, a boat slowly approached from the west. The boatman was a dark-faced man who looked difficult to get along with. He seemed to ignore the people splashing in the river and only asked in a muffled voice, "Who wants to cross the river?"
Most of the people who came to seek medical treatment were people who made a living in Liuren City. They had already recognized the black-faced man and asked, "Do you charge money?"
The dark-faced man didn't even raise his head and answered, "It was the same before and it is the same now."
Someone immediately took out a copper coin and threw it into the fish basket on the bow of the boat.
This was the rule in the past - you could cross the river with one penny, and you could go back and forth.
Everyone rushed to get on the boat, but was swept away by the boatman with a pole. They almost fell into the water and became one of the people being beaten. They were immediately furious: "What are you doing?"
The black-faced man remained silent.
At first they were puzzled, but after thinking for a while, they suddenly understood and all looked at the masked young knight.
It was obvious who had called the boat.
Chen Chunxing signaled Yang Yi and Bu Yao to board the boat, while he himself remained squatting on the shore. He casually asked the boatman, "How is it today? Will it be the same tomorrow?"
The dark-faced man finally reacted. He glanced at Xue Yongan and said in a muffled voice, "As long as you're here, it will be the same as before."
Chen Chunxing laughed happily: "I am quite proud?"
Jichang Pharmacy has used shady tactics time and time again, and now she faces them head-on, but they are backing off... It's too easy.
But I can't care too much about it right now.
The heat radiating from her wrists burned her.
Wait until the ship sails away.
Chen Chunxing turned around and said to the people around him as if nothing had happened: "The moat is an important part of the city's defense. If I were the city lord, I would definitely strictly control the ships."
Xun Huisheng, who had been pretending to watch the fun, was speechless.
"With a penny in our village, you can't even ride an ox cart. I didn't expect that in a troubled place like Liuren City, there would be such a simple boatman."
Xun Huisheng smiled awkwardly, thought about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind to tell the truth. However, he didn't expect that Chen Chunxing didn't want to listen.
"Thank you Aunt Xun for today. If there's a chance, we'll see you in the martial arts world."
Under Xue Yongan's protection, the two blended into the crowded crowd and quickly disappeared.
Xun Huisheng opened his mouth wide and stamped his feet in frustration.
Who wants to say goodbye to her? I clearly want to see her every day!
But the little girl left so quickly that even the sentry was not on guard.
After confirming the two had left, Xun Huisheng shouted, "These outsiders are always causing trouble for me! If it weren't for the city lord's orders, I would have drowned a few of them today... Come, quickly tell the city lord what happened here... Wait, I'll write the letter myself... Oh, and tell the youngest to keep an eye on Doctor Chu and don't let anyone get away again..."
——
The two men directly climbed over the city wall. Xue Yongan had already noticed that someone was following them, so he used some tricks and easily got rid of the person.
Wait until no one is around.
Chen Chunxing shook the token on his wrist, and a ghost was drawn over.
She narrowed her eyes threateningly, "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise it will be difficult for me to remain friendly."
Liu Sanlang felt guilty. How could he admit he was lost? He quickly put on an anxious expression.
"Girl, this is terrible! The food we have is about to fly away!"
“…”
Chen Chunxing calmed down instantly.
It turned out that when Liu Sanlang left, he drifted to the granary and found that it was in chaos. They were actually starting to migrate.
"I overheard the traffickers' conversation. It seems that because a garrison suddenly arrived at Boundary Monument Mountain, they were afraid of being implicated, so they had to abandon their territory here. From what I heard, there were actually several hiding places."
Chen Chunxing's face turned cold. "What about those children? Were they taken away as well?"
Liu Sanlang hesitated and was a little hesitant to tell the truth.
"They say... since they can't get rid of it right now, taking it away would be troublesome, and they don't lack children..."
There are dozens of innocent children in one manor.
This group of people is really hateful.
After listening to Liu Sanlang's narration, Xue Yongan uttered two words lightly.
"lead the way."
There was no longer the casualness on his face as when he was playing on the river bank.
For some people, the only way to pay for their sins is with blood.
