Chapter 46: Undercurrents

After knowing that Furong Town was around Yuyuan, Qiao Yiling couldn't sit still. This letter doesn't even have an envelope, a piece of paper is hastily explained! The two places are separated, and the half-moon scene of rushing to them after receiving the letter has passed, during this period, has there been any accidents?

"Miss Qiao, Gongzi Xu and Gongzi Sheng have their own proportions, and nothing will happen." Xiao Ziyan calmed Qiao Yiling's emotions and analyzed: "The goods of the Storm Gate were sent to Yuyuan, they should have followed the Storm on the boat, and then found the secret of the Storm Gate in Furong Town, so in order to hide people's eyes, we could only be hastily notified to rush."

"What Ziyan said is reasonable, let's meet them as soon as possible first, and then discuss." Jiang Xiaotian is worthy of being an old man in the rivers and lakes, and he is used to seeing wind and waves, so although he is also worried about these two teenagers in his heart, he is still unfazed on his face.

Ever since Qiao Yiling saw Jiang Xiaotian's secret move, he was a little disappointed in him. However, the whereabouts of the letter are not yet clear, and it is impossible to conclude that Jiang Xiaotian is guilty. It's just that when you find that the open-minded hero you admire is actually not so bright, there is still a little bit of a gap in your heart.

Qiao Yiling had several impulses to directly find out with Jiang Xiaotian, but after careful consideration, he decided to pretend not to know and continue to track whether it was related to their trip this time.

In the blink of an eye, a day has passed, and the murderer still has no news, and the deputy guard is angry and anxious, and he just received the news from King Ming. King Ming will collect his troops and return to Beijing in a few days, and he will come to Yuyuan to deal with this matter first. He asked the deputy guard to set the people free, and only needed to seal off the Lingchuan wharf, and strengthen the vigilance to control the number of ships leaving the city. The deputy guard breathed a sigh of relief.

In recent years, Mo Luo has refused to submit to his subordinates, and has provoked the Central Plains from time to time, and there have been new contradictions and frictions between the two ends in three days, and he has even raised troops against each other at every turn. General Li only came back from the victory of the battle, so there are few people walking on this pier now, and the opinions of the people are not large. Although there were still voices of opposition, because of the small number of people, they could not make much splash, and most of the people who were unhappy were small clans around Moluo, and they did not dare to protest more.

The post station lifted the confinement order, and many people were running towards the Pinghuai wharf. Lingchuan was sealed, and the only way to go back was to go back through the Pinghuai detour, although it was a waste of time, but it was better than being trapped in Yuyuan.

Uncle Wu and Sheng Lingyun didn't rush back, they hadn't waited for the buyer yet, seeing that the half day was about to pass, but they hadn't seen the buyer for a long time, but Uncle Wu was not worried at all, calm as water, waiting quietly.

Sheng Lingyun was not in a hurry, he had already expected that Uncle Wu would not let him see this person, but he just pretended to be on his face, and complained impatiently: "Why haven't you come yet?"

Sheng Lingyun's guess was not wrong, and it didn't take long for Li Heng to knock on the door with his disciple, "Uncle Wu, the goods have been picked up." ”

"Then let's go." Uncle Wu got up, but Sheng Lingyun sat as firmly as a bell, "Young Master Sheng, aren't you leaving?" ”

"How long have you been walking?" Sheng Lingyun pretended to be surprised, raised his eyes to look at Li Heng, and asked.

"It didn't take long, and now it's estimated that it's just two streets." Li Heng glanced at Uncle Wu and answered truthfully.

"Uncle Wu, didn't you say that you have three businesses, what?" Sheng Lingyun actually guessed that there would be such a result, but from this point of view, Uncle Wu is also here without three hundred taels of silver, which can only prove that they still have secrets in Yuyuan, if he guessed correctly, the black shadow flashing by the skylight is the person who connects with Uncle Wu.

"Ahh I forgot to tell Shaoxia that it is true that we are indeed three buyers, but we only trade with one at a time, and as for who it is, just wait. ”

Uncle Wu's face was a smile after teasing Sheng Lingyun, and Sheng Lingyun had no choice but to go out of the post station with them and go back to the dock.

Sheng Lingyun is not in a hurry to find a receiver, anyway, this batch of goods is definitely going to leave Yuyuan, and now the exit is only Pinghuai Wharf, and the number of ships going out of the city is strictly controlled, according to the time, I am afraid that if they want to go out of the city, they will have to take advantage of it tomorrow.

On the other side, the people who were detained by the officers and soldiers also returned to their places safely, and the boatmen hurried back to the dock, saw Xu Yunxi, and knelt on the ground. "Son, do well, save Agui!"

Xu Yunxi hurriedly helped them up and listened to them tell them the ins and outs of the matter. Agui was arrested by mistake and can't be saved when he dies, but how can he save it, is it difficult to rob the prison?

Xu Yunxi first asked them to calm down, but he couldn't figure it out, it stands to reason that the prisoners who were caught would be tortured and interrogated, and the officers and soldiers naturally couldn't ask anything from Ah Gui's mouth, so why didn't they let them go?

Sheng Lingyun and Uncle Wu and others were walking on the way back to the dock, and there were people coming and going, busy unloading and loading, unloading and returning home. All the bans were lifted, except that there were twice as many guards on the docks on both sides. All boats that leave Yuyuan must be carefully inspected, and the people on board must be checked one by one before they are allowed to leave.

Sheng Lingyun paid attention to the movement of the people who moved the boxes as he walked, and the goods of the storm gate were all packed in ebony boxes, but now it seems that there is no such thing, haven't you come back here yet? He didn't think that Uncle Wu's secret in Yuyuan was the shipload of sea salt, and the focus should be on the person who delivered the goods, so they didn't have to re-disguise the goods.

Back at the dock, Uncle Wu went to the guards to ask if he could still go to sea, but naturally he couldn't, and then lined up and went to the day after tomorrow. Uncle Wu couldn't go back for the time being, and he was very unhappy, but he still had to take care of his face and didn't show it. Why aren't they in a hurry, the goods in Furong Town have already been known to Sheng Lingyun, and the silver-faced man has not explained what they should do after confessing to Jiang Xiaotian, so it is naturally best for them to get rid of these two people in Yuyuan, but they must also take precautions and notify them to remove the weapons in time, after all, this is a major crime of rebellion, and he can't afford it.

When Uncle Wu went to ask the guards, Sheng Lingyun left Li Heng and walked away alone. The sea breeze was slightly cool, and the sky was still two minutes cold in the afternoon, Sheng Lingyun walked around the boat left behind for half a circle, especially paying attention to the people who carried the goods on the ship.

At this time, there were two white young men behind him, carrying a big box forward with difficulty, "let one go, let one let ......" they were calling Sheng Lingyun, Sheng Lingyun heard it and got out of the way, but they themselves fell heavily one by one, and the box that was not locked firmly suddenly lifted half of the lid, and inside was the sea salt transported by the storm!

The two of them looked panicked, hurriedly buckled the locks and stood up and continued to walk forward, Sheng Lingyun wanted to come over to help but the two of them refused, quickly walk away.

The storm gate was really cautious enough, and it took a lot of trouble to change the box. But it's right to think about it, now that they are all gathered at the same dock, it is naturally easy to find the target, so it must be guaranteed to be foolproof.

Sheng Lingyun stared at the backs of the two teenagers and looked all the way to find the target ship. What he didn't know was that when the two men returned to the ship, someone in the cabin answered, "How is it?"

"See."

At this moment, Li Heng came running from a distance, "Childe, Childe on the ship is looking for you." ”

Sheng Lingyun came back to his senses and followed Li Heng back, Xu Yunxi and Uncle Wu were standing on the boat, Uncle Wu's face was ugly and angry.

"What's wrong?" Sheng Lingyun sensed that something was wrong, and stepped forward and asked.

"The general was assassinated, and Agui was arrested by mistake." Xu Yunxi also had a headache, although they came to Yuyuan with Uncle Wu to delay the time for the ventilation and reporting of the storm, but now the plans have all been disrupted, and once Agui is not strict about what happened to the ship at sea, everyone will be affected.

Uncle Wu wanted to leave Agui behind, but Xu Yunxi naturally didn't allow it, and the shipwrights were also people who valued love and righteousness, and they wanted to save Agui. Uncle Wu had a bumpy journey, and now he had an accident, not only was it difficult to get rid of them, but he was also dragged back, very angry, and flicked his robe sleeves and went to the boat.

"This is good, how can I save it?" Sheng Lingyun and Xu Yunxi stood side by side, looking into the distance. If there is no accident in the calculation time, Jiang Xiaotian should be on the way, and now they can't go back to Furong Town as planned, so how can they investigate Jiang Xiaotian?

"We'll have to find a way to get to that ship tonight." Sheng Lingyun pointed to the ship just now and said to Xu Yunxi.

"What's wrong?"

Sheng Lingyun whispered to Xu Yunxi about Uncle Wu's move to cover up in the post station, Xu Yunxi turned around and glanced at the cabin, and then said, "You say, how credible is Uncle Wu's words?"

"Three points." Sheng Lingyun was not ambiguous at all, Uncle Wu was extremely deep in the city, and he was extremely cautious in his work. If it was true that he was afraid of death and showed weakness on the ship, then he was able to maneuver between the silver-masked man and Jiang Xiaotian for so long without being discovered, and he was by no means simple. It is also because of this that he will reveal all his secrets because of the fear of death, and he will not be credible.

Now in addition to Jiang Xiaotian and the mysterious people, Uncle Wu also has contact with another group of people, although I don't know that this group of people does not belong to either Jiang Xiaotian and the silver-faced people, but the Storm Gate can avoid the eyes and ears of this way and send the three parties, which is enough to prove that their strength should not be underestimated. What's more, the Storm Gate is only one-ninth, and the future road of Yanyu Villa is still enough to walk for a long time.

"We went all the way from Duxuan to Yuyuan, and everything that happened was like a net, which was clearly in front of us, but we couldn't catch it and couldn't break free." Xu Yunxi had a bitter face, from the silver-faced man to Jiang Xiaotian, to the secret of Ying Yutang and the mysterious connector who is now born, his identity is becoming more and more complicated, and they are restricted everywhere and are not easy to move, causing the thread to roll bigger and bigger, but it can't be dismantled for a long time, which can be described as a dilemma.

"No matter what, no matter how many forces there are, we only need to grasp one line, which is the Storm Gate. They strung together the whole web, and naturally they were also the source of unraveling. Sheng Lingyun comforted Xu Yunxi. He knew that Xu Yunxi was not the kind of person who retreated in distress, he was just afraid that the closer he got to the truth, the hero image in his mind would collapse, but since he came, he must unravel the truth, right?

The two of them were thinking about how they would get into the ship at night, when they saw a group of people leave the ship after it was loaded, and then walked to the market.

"They don't live on the boat?" Xu Yunxi raised the corners of his mouth, "It's okay to do this, it saves us a lot of trouble." ”

Now Yuyuan's forces are almost all concentrated on the Pinghuai Wharf, and except for a round of searches in the morning, the market is no different from Suri, and there are only sentries standing in fixed places, so it is much easier for them to sneak into the inn.

The two of them went to the cabin to say hello to Uncle Wu and them, and followed the group of people to the market, anyway, the boat couldn't go today, but they weren't worried that Uncle Wu would run away.

When they came to the market, this group of people went to Yu Le Lou, they should have booked a room a long time ago, so they went upstairs without greeting the boss.

"Little Er, is there still a room here?" Xu Yunxi waited for them to go upstairs before stepping into the inn with Sheng Lingyun.

"Well, yes, guest officer." Xiao Er came to lead them upstairs diligently, "Guest officer, it just so happened that there was such a big accident in the city the day before yesterday, and the guests who came here to do business were all out of the city." Alas, I am not sympathetic to General Shen, but also for everyone's good! ”
