Chapter Twenty-Four: The Return
"Mr. Wu, your current physical condition is very unstable, why are you in a hurry to leave?" Song Nian was a little puzzled and a little worried: "Although I ...... I only know a little about medical skills, but I can help you take care of one or two. ”
Wu Yuanhe's clothes were densely wrapped with bandages, but it didn't prevent him from walking and talking, so he only heard him smile bitterly: "This time...... The tribesmen and the merchants were slaughtered, and the goods were fine, but I could not account for them to the families of the tribesmen and the men, so I had to go back as soon as possible and prepare the money so that the orphans and widows would not starve and freeze. ”
Song Nian nodded again and again: "That's true......"
"Well, it really should have been arranged sooner...... This matter also has something to do with my Black Armor Army...... "Chu He felt that he had attracted the Black Heaven Demon God, and he owed a lot to Wu Yuanhe, and wanted to make up for it: "I don't know the salt and iron business ...... here."
Wu Yuanhe pushed back again and again: "Lord Chu, this time, my cronies and friends have all been damaged, and I can only stay away from the affairs of this place." ”
Song Nian sighed, sure enough, during the war, it was always easy for business travelers to lose heavy losses and go bankrupt at every turn.
"Then when is Mr. Wu going to leave?" Song Nian asked.
Wu Yuanhe said: "Even today, this time the loss is heavy, and there is no time to delay. ”
"In such a hurry?" Song Nian was stunned for a moment, and then said embarrassedly: "Although it is a little presumptuous, Mr. Wu also has important things to do, but can you bother Mr. Wu again, talk about the attack that day, we also have to track down the murderer." ”
"Track down the murderer?" Wu Yuanhe frowned: "The murderer ......"
Song Nian hurriedly said: "The murderer, can Mr. Wu see it clearly?" “
Wu Yuanhe smiled bitterly: "At that time, it was dark, and my guys and I were resting at the dock, and the murderer pounced on him, where to see clearly." ”
As he spoke, Wu Yuanhe's face jumped, obviously, he was extremely afraid, sad and angry about that night.
"So, your murderer...... Are there any features? Song Nian continued to ask.
In this era, the population is sparse and traffic is blocked, and many times the murderer can be caught just by relying on the description and portrait of his appearance.
"Murderer...... The murderer ......" Wu Yuanhe hesitated for a long time before he said: "The body is tall, and he speaks with a northern accent. ”
"But...... The accent on Kuhara's side? Song Nian asked.
Wu Yuanhe nodded slowly: "Master Song said so, it's true." ”
Song Nian sighed, faintly guessed in his heart, and said to Wu Yuanhe: "Mr. Wu, do you have any suspicion that those murderers were sent by your opponent?" ”
"Those murderers ......" Wu Yuanhe's body was shocked, and after a while, he slowly said: "I'm sorry, this, I really don't know." ”
"Then, I wish Mr. Wu a smooth journey."
Song Nian and Chu He sent Wu Yuanhe outside the gate of the wall, watching Wu Yuanhe's carriage gradually disappear.
The two of them are also deeply saddened by the tragedy of the Wu family.
It's a pity that those murderers are nowhere to be found.
Chu He sent someone to check. In the past few days, no other ships have arrived at the wharves and villages and towns downstream except for the small boat of Chu He and Song Nian.
This means that the killer fled to the upper reaches of the river, and the Black Armor Army, and even the local residents, knew nothing about the upper reaches of the river.
……
But for Chu He and Song Nian, the most important thing at the moment is...... Head to Kuhara Mansion.
Go to, Wang's house.
The Black Armor Army can't follow it, so they have to stay here and prepare for the matter of Guojiabao.
Song Tong also stayed in the camp of the Black Armor Army.
Looking at his daughter, he boarded the carriage and slowly headed south under the escort of a team of black armor soldiers.
Song Nian and Chu He didn't know that a caravan traveled quickly south from Sanchuankou.
This group of business travelers does not know how many waves and how many bloody storms will be stirred up.
