Chapter 349: About to Enter the Gentiles
Qi Ning'an led a few people through the backyard of the corridor and entered the small table in the backyard where they used to eat. Fortunately, it was summer and not very cold, so even with the two marquises, they were not afraid of catching a cold.
"Young lady, what are you going to eat today?" It was Guyu who asked. She finally had some time to rest. The seats outside were already full of guests and no new guests were coming in yet, so she could rest for a while.
Qi Ning'an asked Le Yonghou, after all, his father came to him and he knew what he liked to eat.
The table was soon set.
"What a fate." Le Yonghou looked at Qi Ning'an with emotion. He never thought that this young lady would be the daughter of his old friend, and he never thought that there would be such a dissimilar father and daughter.
But after getting to know each other for a while, I found that our personalities and temperaments are quite similar.
Since we were eating and chatting at the same time, the noise outside seemed to have nothing to do with here, and it was still a peaceful place.
……
Gu Qingyun and his companions were gradually approaching the edge of the country. The further south they went, the more unbearable the heat and humidity became. The two men from the Honglu Temple had become so thin that they were just skin and bones. They were not just pale and skinny.
Fortunately, during this period they gradually adapted to life in the carriage and were able to eat a lot.
"In less than five days, we will reach Wubang. The people of Wubang like to drink and eat meat. People from the Dayan Dynasty will be more or less polite when they go there. But it is these habits that may expose us. The purpose of our trip is to find out whether Madam Rong was brought here to betray the country. Was she willing or forced? We also need to find out who did it and what is the relationship with the Nanzhou Hua family? This time, because of Madam Rong's matter, we can't bring Madam Rong back, or we can't bring her back openly. We can only let her sneak out. Otherwise, Madam Rong will be in trouble."
When they got closer to Ubang, they no longer rushed like crazy, and even bought some things along the way. They looked more like a group of businessmen.
There is a tribe of moderate size between Wubang and Dayan Dynasty. It is summer now, and their summer pasture is on the road that Gu Qingyun and his party must pass.
This group of people always maintains a neutral attitude and seems to have no interest in any power struggle. The only thing they want to grab is the fertile land with flowers and plants.
But they care particularly about their cattle and sheep, so when passing through their territory, you must slow down and speak softly.
This is also the reason why Gu Qingyun asked the driver to slow down a lot, as they also needed to enter Wubang slowly.
After hearing this, several people around nodded. Their leader was Gu Qingyun, who had found many clues along the way.
It’s just that some are useful, while others seem to be meaningless.
In addition to the lotus pedestal, they also found a post station, which seemed to be a kind of robbing of other robbing gangs.
They found out after they went in, but there was nothing they could do.
During the meal, I heard people at the next table talking loudly, "I'm really angry. So many girls were shipped out from me, and I didn't even want to pay them. Damn, I really don't want to help the old black man next time."
"Just be patient. This trip costs a lot of money." Someone next to him whispered to comfort him.
But the man got even angrier, "When you say this, I get even angrier! I put up with it when you dragged your feet and didn't pay me! But he didn't want to touch those girls, and he blocked me from touching them. Everyone knows what we do when we go out to hook up, so what's wrong with touching them?"
"Hey, Brother Sun, about this matter... what exactly are they sending out for? You know. In the past few years, we have traveled back and forth so many times, all for the new..."
When he said this, the man lowered his voice a lot.
If Gu Qingyun didn't know about Madam Rong and Madam Rong, he would probably think that they were talking about human trafficking. But after knowing about Madam Rong, he always felt that there was something else behind their words.
"Hey, kid! You're eavesdropping on our conversation. Don't even think about leaving this inn today. Just walk out sideways."
Perhaps Gu Qingyun's thinking was too obvious, and the people behind him noticed something.
These people would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go.
"You gentlemen have misunderstood. I'm just sitting here eating." Gu Qingyun didn't want to argue with them.
After all, there would be no evidence if the person died, so perhaps we could hear more now that he is alive.
"Eat? What are you eating for, you woman? How many times have you picked up a mouthful of rice and put it down?" The thug who stood up to hit people had a lot of tattoos on his body. Gu Qingyun could see at a glance that two of them were prisoners' tattoos.
Generally, people who have committed serious crimes will be stabbed on their bodies or faces. But tattoos once are usually enough to bring shame upon people for the rest of their lives. It can even be said that many prisoners with tattoos will never walk out of prison alive.
How could this person do it a second time?
Even Gu Qingyun thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out who was stabbed twice.
"I don't have a good appetite. I'll eat slowly. The road was too bumpy." Gu Qingyun said lightly. He really didn't want to fight with them, but this group of people just wouldn't give in.
Zhang Qiu next to him was so frightened that his face turned pale. He had just eavesdropped, but he felt that there was nothing crucial and it was not closely related to the case.
Zhang Qiu thought it was Gu Qingyun's occupational disease. He was very sensitive to these vicious people who lived on the edge of a knife and had to hear the whole story.
"I'll make you lose your appetite." As he said that, the gangster raised his hand and was about to hit Gu Qingyun on the head.
Gu Qingyun remained calm and swayed his seat slightly, "Brother, I don't want to fight with you, why do you have to hold me back?"
Gu Qingyun was also a little angry. He sighed and turned around.
The gangster's pupils suddenly dilated and he hurried to run out. The others looked at him in confusion.
Xin Hai was standing at the door when he saw the gangster stopping him.
The little gangster was still trembling and trying to run away, but how could Xinhai let him do that?
When the others saw their brothers being beaten, they picked up their weapons and rushed forward.
The gangster shouted at the top of his lungs, "They are from the government, run!"
At this time the shop owner was also shocked. He had originally wanted to reap the benefits by sitting back and waiting, but now after hearing the shouts, he no longer wanted to do that. What was the point of sitting back and waiting and revolting? They all rose up in rebellion.
"You can't escape anyway, let's go."
The person who complained about not getting the money seemed to be their boss. Since the boss said so, how could the others dare to run? Some people moved forward tremblingly, while others deliberately fell behind others.
All of a sudden, there were thousands of different looks.
