Chapter 316 Undercurrent



Feng Jiuyan patted Song Chen on the shoulder and praised him generously, "You are really a man."

Who would have thought that Song Chen, a weak scholar, would dare to rush up and beat up that fat guy Su Chang.

Not bad, not bad!

Moreover, after knowing that the other party was not someone to be trifled with, Song Chen was able to put his bright future behind him and rush forward to rescue his sister. This is truly rare.

The character of Song Chen is clearly visible from this.

Being praised by Feng Jiuyan, Song Chen felt a little embarrassed, "Haha, An Ning is my biological sister, it is my responsibility to protect her."

Feng Jiuyan reacted all of a sudden, and she seemed to understand why the brother and sister had such gloomy faces.

She lowered her voice and whispered, "In fact, when I went to the town to buy things a few times ago, I also heard that Prime Minister Su's mansion was robbed. Now his life is worse than the beggars in the capital, and he has to sell all kinds of land to make ends meet. I also heard that after Prime Minister Su's daughter became bald, her marriage with the prince was called off."

Song Ning's eyes lit up, and his mouth widened, almost reaching behind his ears. "Really? Hahaha, you deserve it!"

Song Chen, who was usually serious, couldn't help laughing after hearing about the miserable experience in Prime Minister Su's mansion.

As they talked, several people came into the teahouse one after another.

A row of seven or eight big men in ordinary clothes, some holding farm tools, some holding axes, or like the few people who just left, carrying a load of firewood, walked towards the tea stall.

Feng Jiuyan was also attracted by these farmers. She found that although these big men were carrying two large bundles of firewood, they walked vigorously and vigorously, and they were obviously martial artists.

She frowned in thought, could it be that these were all played by bandits?

"Waiter, give us a pot of green tea." They put aside the farm tools or firewood in their hands and walked into the tea shed.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment, the tea will be here soon." The waiter had a warm smile on his face.

The waiter and the big men looked at each other meaningfully, and then looked away.

Although it was only a few seconds, it still didn't escape Feng Jiuyan's eyes.

She was very sure that these big men were genuine bandits, the same bandits that were involved in the human trafficking business with Huawu Village!

At this time, several women with horse faces took the buns in their hands and deliberately passed by Feng Jiuyan's donkey cart.

"Hmm, the buns here smell so good!" The horse-faced woman took a big bite of the bun.

"Yes, it really is more delicious than the ones in town. Hehe, but, I guess someone can't afford it." Another woman took a bite of the meat bun and glanced at Feng Jiuyan and the others meaningfully.

Feng Jiuyan's eyes fell on the buns of the horse-faced woman and the others, and the space immediately sounded a red alarm. She suddenly realized that the bandits had planned such a plot.

Haha, they will cry later. She is waiting to see!

Feng Jiuyan looked at the horse-faced woman and the others with a fake smile, "Haha, it's delicious, you guys should eat more. Our family really can't afford these buns, so we don't deserve to eat them!"

"Humph, of course you don't deserve it! This bun costs five cents each. I see your donkey cart is getting emptier and emptier, and you must have spent most of your money. Haha, from now on, you can just watch us eat. Don't cry out of greed when the time comes~~" The horse-faced woman looked at Feng Jiuyan provocatively.

After Feng Jiuyan finished what she wanted to say, she ignored them.

The horse-faced women were ignored, snorted, and left. They took the buns in their hands and walked to the other prisoners to show off.

Feng Jiuyan looked at the road ahead and fell into deep thought.

Since the buns were drugged, the tea the officials drank must have been drugged as well.

She glanced around the teahouse, searching for Zhang Chong and Zhang Xiaowu. She found that they were not sitting in the teahouse, but were taking a nap leaning against a big tree.

In this case, the two probably did not drink the drugged tea. Feng Jiuyan breathed a sigh of relief.

She guessed that the reason why the bandits hadn't taken action yet was probably because they wanted to wait for the drug to take effect and knock out all the officials.

She had to find a way to escape quickly.

Feng Jiuyan focused her consciousness and sank into space. She concentrated her mind and searched for an escape route on the floating map in the space villa.

But she found that there was only one way out. That is, she could either break through the bandits' encirclement and move forward, or retreat and go back the way they came.

Feng Jiuyan frowned. If the number of bandits was too large, it might be difficult to escape with four people.

Suddenly, Feng Jiuyan remembered Huang Da's words.

Huang Da said that every time they traded with the bandits, they would do it in a hunting lodge on the top of Fufeng Mountain on the first and fifteenth day of the month. According to him, there was usually no one living there.

Perhaps, if it really comes to that, they can only run to the top of Fufeng Mountain.

Only when she has a place to accommodate her mother, brother and Song Ning and his sister can she use the things in the space to cheat.

Feng Jiuyan quickly found the way to the hunting lodge on the top of the mountain according to Huang Da's description. She estimated that it was just wide enough for a donkey cart to pass.

So she felt relieved.

"Ayan, Ayan." Madam Feng called out anxiously in the carriage. Listening carefully, her mother's voice was mixed with a hint of pain.

Feng Jiuyan was startled and quickly opened the door of the carriage and walked into it.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Feng Jiuyan was shocked when she saw her mother's pale face and painful expression.
