Chapter 3364 The transport team is shocked
Zuo Junmo’s meaningful gaze rested on Yang Ruoqing’s face, and he said slowly: “I envy him to marry someone who has the same thoughts as him. "Ru Yimo."
"If I marry just for reproduction and inheritance, I would rather choose to be alone."
Hearing Zuo Junmo's words, Yang Ruoqing was speechless and didn't know. How to persuade.
Indeed, for a thoughtful and fighting man like Brother Zuo, his wife cannot just be a tool for raising children. He is different from those vulgar men. What he needs is a soul mate.
"Everything is determined by destiny. Brother Zuo, I don't need to persuade you too much. If fate has not come, I can't persuade you. Just let nature take its course!" Yang Ruoqing smiled sweetly, her eyes curved into two crescents.
When Zuo Junmo saw her smiling eyebrows, a trace of bitterness flashed across her eyes, which was fleeting.
Fate was right in front of him, but it didn't belong to him.
We can only blame nature for playing tricks on people. Love is deep but fate is shallow.
So be it.
"Brother Zuo, please sit down first. I'll call my uncle and my father to chat with you. I have to prepare lunch. You must try the home-cooked food made by my sister at noon!" Yang Ruoqing stood up, said excitedly.
Zuo Junmo also stood up and said: "Uncle Luo and Uncle Yang are busy, so there is no need to disturb them. I will go around the village and look around. Anyway, I am familiar with this area."< br>
Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment and nodded cheerfully, "Okay, then don't go far, we can have dinner in an hour at most."
One hour is two hours, two hours is enough. She cooks many, many dishes.
Zuo Junmo smiled slightly and left the main room with Yang Ruoqing. Then one went to the backyard and the other to the front door.
That day, the transport team finally returned to the village.
This return of the transportation team seems to have brought back the New Year atmosphere. The families of the transportation team members came to the village entrance to greet them, pick up their families, and pick up the items they bought from the south. The whole family was overjoyed with the big and small packages of New Year's goods. After saying hello to Yang Ruoqing, they hugged each other and hurried home to reunite.
Gui Hua also brought her young son to Yang Ruoqing's house to look for Chang Gen. The woman was not here to pick up the new year's goods, but to hear the news about her daughter Xiao Yu.
At this time, Chang Gen and Baozhu were here with Yang Ruoqing, truthfully reporting to her the story of the delivery to Xiushui Town.
I just talked about what happened at the dock in Jiujiang County when we set out.
"Because the mudslides in front of the official road buried several miles of the official road, we had no choice but to send you a message back, and then we rented two merchant ships, and also spent money to hire an escort with a good reputation in Jiujiang County to escort us. Planning to take the water route Go directly to Xiushui Town."
"The merchant ship in front is used to carry people and goods, and the merchant ship in the back is used to load carriages and horses."
Baozhu picked up the tea bowl in front of him and drank. He took a sip of tea and continued talking.
Yang Ruoqing and Zuo Junmo both sat there, listening attentively.
Baozhu said: "The waterway was fine for the first two days. Except for a few people who were a little seasick, everything else was fine."
"But in the evening of the next day, we arrived near Baidi Valley. The sun had set, but the water on the river was red and fishy."
"Even I People who don’t get seasick almost vomited standing at the bow of the boat.”
When Baozhu said this, Yang Ruoqing frowned, and an ominous guess came into her heart.
"The boat continued to move forward and slowed down. At this time, we saw a body floating on the river."
Hearing this, Sun and Guihua both fell. He took a breath and turned a little pale. Yang Huazhong and Luo Tiejiang also frowned.
No one interrupted Baozhu, and Baozhu's voice continued to ring in the main room: "We originally thought it was just a floating corpse that we encountered occasionally, but then, two more corpses floated in front, and further forward , There were corpses scattered all over the river, including men, women, old and young. Oh my god, the water was dyed red..."
"It's so scary!" Osmanthus screamed in shock and covered her face. Rely on the Sun family.
Sun herself was frightened, but she still released a hand and gently put her arm around Guihua's shoulder and patted her gently to show comfort.
Here, Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but said: "Did you meet a Jiang bandit?"
Baozhu nodded, "Yes, we just encountered Jiang bandits."
"People say that thieves have their own ways. When accepting money, they must let people go without harming lives. But the thieves entrenched in Baidi Valley Those river bandits are simply It’s just devoid of humanity, so unruly!”
“We rescued a person from the merchant ship in front of us. Just two days ago, several of our ships met him in Jiujiang County. Parallel for a while Where's the waterway?"
"Later, someone on our boat got seasick, so we deliberately slowed down and let them come forward. When we came forward, only one of the ten people on the boat jumped into the water and escaped, and the other nine escaped. They were all killed.”
“The man we rescued claimed that he was a businessman in the tea and silk business in Sichuan. Their ship passed through the Baidi Valley every quarter. .”
"In previous years, the leader of the Jiang bandits was a man named Brother Mao. He would let them go after collecting their tolls without harming their lives."
"But this time, those Jiang bandits have changed their boss, Mao." My brother died, and it was a leader named He Laoliu."
"He Laoliu took their money and wanted to kill people to silence them."
"I heard that they were there. In front, there is another spirit boat. It seems that a certain official in the capital has passed away, and the whole family, old and weak, women and children, are carrying the spirit back to their hometown in Sichuan."
"While passing the Baidi Valley, I met He Laoliu and the others, all the men were killed, the women were insulted first and then killed. There was also an eight-year-old girl on the boat, who did not escape the clutches..."
"Pa!"
Yang Ruoqing slapped her palm on the table, "Damn it, He Laoliu, this beast, should be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts!"
Zuo Junmo also frowned. Wrinkled, his face was cold.
Everyone else’s expressions were grim, either solemn, frightened, scared, or feeling sorry for the innocent people, especially the eight-year-old official girl...
What tragic torture he suffered before he died!
She has learned the most evil and darkest things in human nature. She hopes to be reborn in an ordinary family in her next life and grow up in peace!
"Uncle Chang Gen, Brother Baozhu, what about you? Have you met He Laoliu?"
While frightened and angry, Yang Ruoqing did not forget to ask this.
Baozhu glanced at Changgen, who said: "You said you were tired, right? Let me tell you."
Baozhu nodded, sat back, and drank tea. Having said so much, my mouth is indeed dry.
Nagane continued: "At that time, the escort on our ship said that this situation was not right and the ship could not go any further. We planned to return along the original route, but before we could turn around, arrows were fired from both sides of the river."< br>
“Then someone shouted, telling us to stop the boat and pay the money, otherwise we would be killed.”
