Chapter 521: Road Encounters Robbers
Su Zhijue looked at Du Ruonan, and then both of them nodded with a look of pity for him.
"You feel sorry for your sister, we can understand and help. But could you please also consider what we just proposed? Su Zhijue asked.
The young man was glad to hear this, and said, "Well, if you help me to see my sister's whereabouts, I can consider your proposal." ”
Du Ruonan nodded happily. But suddenly she was a little worried, because it was very difficult for them to get out of here, and there were not only thieves but also a very terrible pack of wolves.
"But how do we get to your sister, do you know how to get to your sister's place?" Du Ruonan asked.
The boy nodded, then turned to tell them the detailed route and how to go.
So Su Zhijue and Du Ruonan were ready to set off on a journey to find the young girl, and when they took it away, the young man told Su Zhijue and Du Ruonan that a way to avoid the wolves was to apply a little wolf urine on their bodies, as long as those evil wolves smelled the urine of the wild wolf next to them, they would not attack them.
Du Ruonan laughed helplessly, why does this method sound so unreliable, but he can't think about it much, just when Du Ruonan was about to tell the young man to ask for a little wolf urine, Su Zhijue hurriedly stopped Du Ruonan, and then said: "Don't you feel disgusting when a girl actually smears wolf urine on her body?" Let's think of another way to go down the mountain. ”
After Su Zhijue said this, he sat on the side with his arms in his arms, looking unhappy.
The young man saw that Su Zhijue was not the kind of person who was easy to fool, so he laughed and said: "I really didn't misread the two of you, you know a lot, it seems that I didn't find the wrong person, I think you should be able to find my sister, so I can rest assured." ”
Du Ruonan didn't understand the meaning of the young man's words, but Su Zhijue understood, because he knew that it would be so easy to rely on an innocent teenager to survive in the deep mountains for a few years, and he was sure that he had other ways to go down the mountain, but he didn't tell them.
Sure enough, the boy drew them a picture of the mountain road, and said that as long as they followed the scenery in the picture and went down the mountain on a long way, they could avoid the attack of the wolves, because the wolves only acted in places where no one was active, and they had just been inadvertently thrown into the area where the wolves were active, so they would meet the wolves.
Thinking of this, Du Ruonan's face turned slightly red, and then thought that Su Zhijue's body was bitten by a wolf, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
"Su Zhijue, are you okay!? If you're not feeling well, you can tell me that we'll be on our way in a few days. Du Ruonan's pair of double eyelids and apricot eyes were full of tenderness looking at Su Zhijue, Su Zhijue smiled at Du Ruonan, and then shook his head.
"I don't care, let's leave quickly, so as not to make him anxious." Su Zhijue said.
Du Ruonan nodded, and then the two took the road map given by the young man and left, following the mark of the mountain drawn by the young man, and then the two went down the mountain while looking for directions along the mark, and soon Su Zhijue and Du Ruonan avoided the attack of wolves and robbers and hid down the mountain.
Du Ruonan and went to walk on the edge of a waterway, and then looked at the sparkling waves on the lake, and the sun was just shining at noon.
"Ahh Du Ruonan shouted, feeling that the discomfort in his whole body was gone away with this shout.
"Where shall we go now?" Su Zhijue asked, because he wasn't very familiar with the roadmap either.
Du Ruonan took Su Zhijue's hand and walked forward, and then said: "We just need to continue to move forward, take a boat south on the dock in front of us, and reach the border of that small country." Du Ruonan looked at the topographic map carefully and said.
Su Zhijue nodded, and then the two of them kept walking towards the dock.
When we arrived at the wharf on the edge of the town, it was already afternoon, and the wharf was crowded with people waiting to get on the boat, and there were so many people going west and south from this wharf, so there were so many people at this wharf.
Suddenly, a fishing boat shouting to the south drove up.
Du Ruonan walked to the shore and beckoned, and then said, "Boatman, come here, we have two people here." ”
The boatman heard Du Ruonan's call, and then slowly drove the boat over, the boat slowly approached the shore, and the boatman told the two of them to get on the boat now.
Du Ruonan didn't think much about it and walked onto the boat, followed by several people one after another to get on the boat.
The boatman saw that the passenger boat was almost full, so he rowed the boat off the shore towards the middle of the lake.
"The scenery on this river is so beautiful!" Su Zhijue's long body stood on the board of the boat, looking at the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains, and was silently in a daze.
Du Ruonan smiled, then blocked the sun with his hand and came out to see the scenery.
As the two were talking, they noticed that the boatman on the board was making a sack of burlap on the side.
Su Zhijue frowned slightly, but pretended not to see it and continued to gossip with Du Ruonan on the side. Baiyue
In fact, Su Zhijue's eyes were not idle for a moment, secretly looking at the boatman's movements, looking at his burlap bag bulging as if it was something unsightly.
Du Ruonan also noticed Su Zhijue's eyes, and then saw the sneaky appearance of the boatman, and suddenly felt bad.
It seems that this boatman is ready to do things in a sack, ready to do it at any time.
Du Ruonan watched the boatman walk away, and immediately turned his eyes and prepared to tell Su Zhijue what she saw.
However, Su Zhijue had a look that he had expected a long time ago, and stretched out an index finger to block Du Ruonan's lips.
"Don't worry, I've seen it all. Let's pretend not to notice it later, and when he goes to wipe the burlap bag later, we are caught off guard by grabbing him. Su Zhijue said quietly, his eyes still looking at the sturdy boatman from time to time.
Looking at his calm face, it is estimated that it is not a day or two to be a water thief on this water.
When Du Ruonan heard this, he felt that this Su Zhijue was really too smart, and he was still in a hurry about what to do, but he had already thought of a way.
Du Ruonan nodded at Su Zhijue, and then the two of them continued to stand on the deck and pretend to look at the scenery, just when the ship sailed into a valley with towers everywhere, under the boat was a green lake that could hardly see anything, and everywhere was quietly changing with the changes in the scenery.
The boatman saw this extremely quiet place, and it was the best time for him to rob these people, because the terrain here was dangerous, and it was not so easy to escape, even if they wanted to escape and jump into the water, they could not just climb ashore, the mountain was so steep that it was estimated that even if they climbed ashore, few people would dare to walk in the kind of wild land that no wild man haunted.
The boatman walked up to the burlap bag again, and was about to lean down to make a move, when suddenly Su Zhijue spoke.
"Boatman, how long do we have to get to town!?" Su Zhijue looked at the boatman with a puzzled expression.
"Huh!" The boatman was startled, and glanced at Su Zhijue with crooked eyes, he thought that his actions had been discovered.
"No hurry, no hurry, it is estimated that it will be there in two hours." The boatman immediately stood up and said to everyone with a smile on his face.
The crowd nodded, but did not say much.
Su Zhijue's face was filled with a playful smile, this boatman is really a bit of a thief.
The boatman pretended to be nothing, but in fact his eyes were always watching the faces of the people, for he had been waiting very anxiously, and in a little while, the boat would sail into the river, where merchant ships and passenger ships would often pass by, and if the time came to do it, and these people shouted, then his actions would be exposed.
The boatman became more and more anxious, but saw Su Zhijue turn his back as if he had nothing to do, and finally he breathed a sigh of relief and was ready to start working.
Su Zhijue asked him like this or avoided him to wait for the opportunity, they had to let him go to the official if they wanted to subdue the ship, so they could only do it as late as possible, because if he was in a hurry to do it to the people on this ship, then everyone would be more dangerous.
So Su Zhijue thought that the later he started, the later he would be, because he saw that there were many women on the boat, and there were few men who could suppress the boatman.
Just as Su Zhijue turned his back and pondered, the boatman walked to the deck and reached out and finally touched the burlap bag.
Du Ruonan pulled Su Zhijue, Su Zhijue hurriedly went over, took out the short knife he put on his waist and floated it on the neck of the boatman.
"Don't move! We suspect you're trying to rob us all! Su Zhijue said indifferently.
Du Ruonan also reached out and pressed the boatman's shoulder on the side, lest he suddenly draw his knife and jump up and hurt everyone.
Su Zhijue took advantage of the boatman's stunned and immediately stretched out his foot and kicked away the burlap bag in his hand, then grabbed his shoulders with both hands and pressed his short knife against his neck.
When everyone on the boat heard that they suspected that the boatman wanted to rob everyone, they all panicked at once, and they grabbed the package they were carrying and looked at the boatman.
Du Ruonan immediately went over and opened the burlap bag, and the contents of the burlap bag were finally gone, only to see that there was a steel knife and a large bundle of hemp rope inside.
Du Ruonan took the steel knife and lifted it, and then said, "What else do you have to say!?" A boatman hides a steel knife on the ship, what do you have to say!? ”
When everyone saw the steel knife shining with cold light, they all shuddered, and immediately accused the boatman of being a robber. Others say that he is a bad breed, and in short, it is not a good thing.
When the boatman saw that his belongings had been taken out, he wanted to resist, but unfortunately the man pressed the short knife so tightly that he almost cut his neck, so that he couldn't move.
"Well, since you have all seen it. Please spare me this time, and the little one will never do it again next time! The boatman begged for mercy, his voice sounding pitiful.
