Chapter 161: Attack

The rear, which was originally empty, did not know when a small convoy would catch up.

And the person who led the horse riding was the third horse!

Seeing Shen Yunfan at this time, Ma Laosan raised his hand with a sly smile and said hello to him.

Uncle Jin and the others obviously also noticed Ma Laosan, so Wang Yujin jumped out of the carriage and trotted forward and asked, "Uncle Jin, Ma Laosan has been following us, there won't be any conspiracy, right?"

Uncle Jin shook his head with a calm face and said, "It should be fine, there are only more than twenty of them, which is much less than us. What's more, everyone is running a caravan, can he still rob us?"

"That's just as well." Wang Yujin nodded.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence, so we don't have to be too nervous." Uncle Jin comforted everyone again.

The two convoys walked for a long time, one after the other, and at noon, seeing that the sky was overcast and raining, they found a flat place and set up camp, intending to hide from the rain first.

A campfire was lit and a few people chatted.

"Uncle Jin, let's send the key over this time, how much can Qianyuan City divide us?"

"I heard that this key is used to open a treasure, and the treasure is worth a thousand gold, and many people are staring at it." The man who spoke rubbed his hands, and his eyes lit up.

"Say no more." Uncle Jin scolded, obviously not wanting to talk about it.

Shen Yunfan, who was next to him, listened to the conversation of several people, and his heart moved.

A treasure worth a thousand dollars? Could it be the treasure mentioned in the letter of the Taishou of Xilin Prefecture?

This caravan led by Uncle Jin is actually transporting the keys to the treasure?

He pondered for a moment, wanting to talk to him, but before he could step forward, a burst of white mist suddenly drifted over not far away.

The wind was not small, so the fog drifted quickly, and a thick white mist enveloped the caravan's camp in the blink of an eye.

Someone muttered, "How can it be foggy on this rainy day?"

Shen Yunfan sniffed his nose and smelled the smell, his expression changed, and he immediately shouted, "Poisonous, cover your nose!"

But as soon as the words fell, a rush and killing sound sounded, and there was chaos all around.

"There are bandits!!"

"Be careful!!"

In a panic, Shen Yunfan didn't have time to think about it, so he casually pulled a rag, stirred it in the muddy water, and then covered his face to block the fog.

He couldn't see anything in the fog, he ran two steps and bumped into a figure, it was Wang Yaqing's little girl.

Seeing this girl's dizzy appearance, Shen Yunfan also dipped a piece of cloth to cover her face.

But the two didn't struggle for long, and when the fog was about to dissipate, the people around them had already fallen to the ground. Uncle Jin and the others were all tied up, and dozens of bandits with masked faces stood around, already controlling the whole scene.

The situation is urgent, and Shen Yunfan doesn't know who ran away or who was arrested. Anyway, Chen Zicai was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing this, Shen Yunfan could only pull Wang Yaqing to squat down.

The bandits didn't kill them, and the leader shouted, "Lock them all up and take them back!"

The caravan was all imprisoned in two dimly lit prison wagons.

Immediately after that, the bandits shouted outside: "Search me, don't let go of all places!"

"What are they looking for?" Shen Yunfan's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered what Uncle Jin and the others had talked about before, "Could it be that you are looking for that so-called key?"

The people around them didn't care about this, they were poisoned, but they didn't faint, they just felt weak.

Now some people are complaining, "Fuck, take a detour, and end up running into bandits!"

"If we don't take a detour, maybe we'll be safe!"

"For the sake of a son, we're all in there!"

The spearhead of a group of people was all pointed at Shen Yunfan.

Wang Yujin was nowhere to be seen in this prisoner car, so no one spoke for Shen Yunfan. At this time, only Uncle Jin said coldly: "Don't fight infighting, let's act when the opportunity arises."

Listening to his tone, he was obviously dissatisfied with Shen Yunfan.

But Wang Yaqing, the girl, defended it:

"Even if you don't take a detour, you may not be able to avoid the bandits, why are you talking about Shen Gongzi like that?"

Shen Yunfan just said coldly: "That Ma Laosan has been following us, and we can't get rid of the bandits wherever we go."

Uncle Jin's heart moved, and he asked, "You mean, Ma Laosan is a bandit?"

When the people heard this, they also muttered in their hearts.

Shen Yunfan was noncommittal.

For a long time, the bandits outside obviously didn't find what they wanted.

As soon as they greeted them, the prisoner cart started and began to walk up the mountain.

I don't know how long it was bumpy, but the prisoner car stopped and the door opened. The bandits outside rebuked, "Get down."

The caravan had just recovered a little, and then they got out of the car one by one and walked to the dungeon next to it. Shen Yunfan got out of the car and looked left and right, this is a cottage, obviously the bandits' nest.

"Look at me gouging out your eyes again!"

The bandit next to him cursed, and Shen Yunfan retracted his gaze and entered the dungeon.

This dungeon is already incapsulated by everyone but them!

Young Master Qian, who had waded through the water before, as well as Ma Laosan and others who followed behind, were all locked up here.

Seeing Shen Yunfan coming in, someone in the caravan rolled his eyes and said, "You still say that Ma Laosan is a bandit? Now Ma Laosan is locked up here!"

"I've been running caravans for so many years, how can I be a bandit?" Ma Laosan sneered.

Shen Yunfan frowned and didn't say anything, while the fat man behind him smiled and asked, "Yo, didn't Young Master Qian say that he was waiting for us in Xilin City?" Why did you change it to wait for us in the dungeon?"

Young Master Qian's face turned red when he was sarcastic, but he didn't have anything to refute.

Today's river burst was indeed a trick of the bandits, who had just crossed the river and were taken here.

After being silent for a long time, he snorted coldly, "Didn't you take a detour and get caught too? It's just a waste of time."

"Don't make any noise, the bandits didn't kill us, they must have another purpose, let's discuss." Uncle Jin said.

"What's there to talk about? The bandits have always demanded money rather than their lives, and they will definitely pay us for a ransom." Ma Laosan said.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the door of the dungeon was opened, and a bandit came in with some pen and paper, and said, "You ask your family for money, and you can go away for two hundred taels of silver per person."

Qian Gongzi was immediately happy when he heard this.

Buying a life with money is nothing to him, so he took a pen and paper and began to write letters.

Others, however, were worried.

Two hundred taels of silver, this is the price of a house in the capital, where do they have to go?

In the huge dungeon, some people are happy and some are worried.

Wang Yaqing shrank in the corner, extremely scared. Seeing this, Shen Yunfan comforted: "Don't be afraid, we'll be fine."

"But my brother is gone, and I don't have any money......

In the dungeon, Wang Yujin was indeed nowhere to be seen.

Shen Yunfan said, "Your brother must have run out, he will come to save us, and you don't have to worry about money."

Wang Yaqing nodded, but still lowered her head.

At this moment, Young Master Qian on the side suddenly spoke.
