Chapter 649: Encounter with Water Bandits
"Boss ......"
Gu Xiqian and Wuwei looked closely at the direction of the horse, wanting to see what kind of attitude those people had when they found the horse?
The person walking in front was the first to see the horse and immediately stopped to signal to the person behind him.
"These two horses are most likely left behind by the man we are chasing. But why did they suddenly leave the horses here and the people gone? ”
The leader took a look and made a judgment. But he couldn't understand that those two people relied on these two horses to get on the road, and now the horses were left here, but the people were gone, which was not normal sense at all.
"They left their horses here, and what did they use to hurry? If we just rely on walking, there is still such a long distance from Yunnan, wouldn't we be able to catch up soon? ”
The others were also puzzled, they couldn't understand what Gu Xiqian's operation was.
"Your ideas are too simple, the people we want to chase are not simple people. They probably found something, which is why they left the horses here to confuse us. Maybe they're watching us somewhere right now! ”
The leader shook his head with a very serious expression. He knows very well what kind of person Gu Xiqian is, and there is naturally a reason for her to do so. After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked around, as if he was sure that Gu Xiqian was around here.
"So what should we do now, we can't just go back like this......
Others are a little confused, this is not good, that is not good, what else can they do. If you go back like this, you will inevitably be punished.
"Keep going, a few of you, and see if there's any sign of them. A few others, follow me around here and look around. ”
The leader thought for a while, and sent two people to continue to chase forward to see if Gu Xiqian and them were in front. He decided to lead a few people to look around the area.
He knew Shen Mengxian's character very well, if he couldn't complete the task and go back, they would be very dangerous. Rather than that, delay for as long as you can.
"Mother, what should we do now? If these people were looking for them nearby, wouldn't we be able to show up? ”
Hearing the leader's arrangement, Wuwei was not calm. They're still lurking here, and if these people were going to be searching the neighborhood all the time, wouldn't they be here forever?
"Wait a minute, and see what they do next? At least now that we've determined that these people are coming for us, it's up to them what to do next! ”
The two men stayed there with a sense of stillness, afraid to reveal their location. Although Wuwei has martial arts, he doesn't know the details of the other party, and he doesn't dare to do it easily. What's more, there is still Gu Xiqian around him, and it is likely that he will not be able to take care of Gu Xiqian at a critical time.
"Boss, I've searched around here, but I haven't found anything."
Several people circled around here, but found nothing, but they also refused to leave.
Gu Xiqian and Wuwei have been squatting here for a long time, their legs and feet have long been numb, and they will soon be unable to hold on.
"Who?"
Gu Xiqian was physically exhausted, and suddenly stumbled. caused the birds in the nearby trees to fly away in a hurry, attracting their attention.
The leader immediately took the remaining few people to this side, and Wuwei looked at Gu Xiqian very anxiously, waiting for her next instructions.
"Hurry up, you must not be caught by them!"
Gu Xiqian also panicked, turned around and ran forward with Wuwei.
"Stop for me, I advise you to stop early, why waste this bit of energy!"
The people behind him saw the figures of Gu Xiqian and Wuwei, and they were even more energetic, chasing after them.
Gu Xiqian didn't look back with nothingness, and didn't dare to pause. They have only one goal in mind, to keep running, and if they pause slightly, they will probably be caught!
"Follow me......"
Gradually, they saw a river ahead of them and felt that they saw hope. Where there is a river, it is best for concealment. But he never thought that before he ran to the river, he met an acquaintance.
Dongfang He walked in the opposite direction with them, and just happened to meet. The three of them were all stunned, but Dongfang He was the first to react, and immediately turned around and walked forward with Gu Xiqian and them.
Gu Xiqian realized that after she returned to Yunnan, she really hadn't seen Dongfang He. I wondered why he was here?
It's just that now the situation is urgent, and she needs to maintain her strength, so she doesn't have time to ask.
"There's a merchant ship in front of you, and when you get to the river, sit on it and go straight ahead. As soon as you go up, they will drive away......"
Seeing that he had arrived at the river, Dongfang He opened his mouth and explained to Gu Xiqian what to do next?
"Won't you come with us?"
Gu Xiqian didn't understand why Dongfang He said this, what did it mean that it was just the two of them, what was he going to do?
"The emperor sent me to lurk beside Shen Mengxian, so I can't leave. Hurry up, and I'll go back when you leave!" ”
It's a long story, Dongfang He didn't have time to explain too much to Gu Xiqian, so he could only say a few words briefly.
Gu Xiqian knew it in her heart, so she didn't ask any more. When we got to the river, sure enough, there was a merchant ship waiting here. Gu Xiqian guessed that this was prepared by Dongfang He in the morning, and without any hesitation, she went up directly with Wuwei.
Seeing Gu Xiqian and them get on the boat, Dongfang He hid to the side again, afraid of being discovered by a few people chasing behind him.
"White chases, they must be in that boat. If the person is not caught, we will go back to our lives like this, and we will not end well. ”
Soon, several people behind him also reached the shore. Looking at the merchant ships in the middle of the river, several people were a little disappointed.
"What can be done then, I have already said that she is not a simple person, and it is impossible for us to be caught so easily!"
The leader was a little depressed, but fortunately, his psychological endurance was relatively strong. Everyone has already run away, let them go down to the river to chase now, and it is impossible to catch up, so they can only give up!
Dongfang He watched them leave, a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he also turned to leave.
"I wonder where this ship will take us?"
Gu Xiqian and Wuwei were sitting on the boat, surrounded by trees, and they couldn't tell the direction clearly, let alone where they were going?
"Don't worry, from the beginning he was heading in the direction of Yunnan. No matter where you end up, you will definitely not be able to return to South Vietnam! ”
Gu Xiqian was not so worried, she believed in Dongfang He very much, and knew that the other party would definitely not harm herself, so she calmed down in her heart.
"What's going on?"
Halfway through the merchant ship, there was a sudden shock. Gu Xiqian and Wuwei glanced at each other, and a bad premonition rose in their hearts.
"Oh no, it's a water bandit......"
The others quickly screamed, and the whole merchant ship was very noisy for a while.
"It seems that they are water bandits, they are all people who are proficient in water, and we will not have an advantage in any way. What's next, just jump in? ”
Wuwei is relatively calm, and she doesn't pay attention to a few water bandits. Mainly considering that Gu Xiqian is more difficult to do.
"Everyone squat down for me, don't try to play any tricks, we are surrounded by us, even if you jump, there is only one way to die!"
Before Gu Xiqian could answer, the bandits had already arrived on the boat, each with a weapon in their hands, and as soon as they came up, they surrounded them and ordered them to squat down.
Gu Xiqian glanced at Wuwei and did as they requested. Generally, the requirements of these bandits are simple, their goal is only money, and they usually do not hurt people's lives.
There are so many of them, and it is unlikely that they will succeed if they rely on nothing alone. In that case, it is better to compromise for the time being. Wuwei saw that Gu Xiqian had done this, and he could only do it.
The sailors ordered the sailors to follow their instructions and continue to drive the boat forward, and only when they reached their destination did they dock.
The water bandits separated the men and women, and Gu Xiqian and a group of female dependents were escorted away. Everyone was scared and huddled together. Gu Xiqian was very calm, always paying attention to the movements of those water bandits.
"These women all look good, and they seem to sell for a good price. We're going to make a lot of money this time! ”
Several people looked at them as they walked forward, their mouths still discussing.
"Who says it's not, when we get to the place, we will immediately contact Hualou. Whichever one gives the highest price will be sold to! ”
Gu Xiqian was shocked in her heart, it turned out that these people planned to sell all the women into the flower building. She glanced at these women, they were indeed not very old, and they looked good, no wonder they had such thoughts.
Gu Xiqian endured all the way and didn't make any moves. When they arrived at their destination, they were all locked up together.
may feel that the victory is in hand, plus they are a group of women, and they have no power to restrain the chicken, so there is no need to worry at all. There was only one person outside, and everyone else went to eat and drink.
"Don't be afraid, I'll find a way to escape and bring someone back to save you! Until then, you must be calm and do not provoke them and put yourself in danger! ”
Gu Xiqian looked at the group of people in front of her, a little unbearable. She decided to find a chance to escape and come back to save them. In order to reassure this group of people, Gu Xiqian also specially comforted them.
"You...... How are you going to get out? ”
After Gu Xiqian finished speaking, the other women looked at her in disbelief. As if doubting the accuracy of her words, they finally couldn't resist their desire to escape, and asked hesitantly.
"You don't have to worry about this, since I said it, I will definitely find a way. Hold your emotions and don't cause me any trouble! ”
Gu Xiqian didn't know what to say, she didn't have an exact way yet. It's just a vaccination to save them something wrong.
