The people who crossed the river, a group of six, all dressed as peasants who cut grass in the city, carried baskets on their backs, and when they reached the bank of the river, they pushed out a half-sized boy with a dove-shaped hoof-faced face and let him cross the river first.

The half-sized man lifted his feet and stepped into the mud and sand.

The foot immediately sank deep into the calf, and then he pulled it out with great effort, and stepped forward again in the mud and water.

If he accidentally stepped on the living sand, the living sand would completely engulf him.

The child's thin body swayed on the surface of the water, like a kite about to break.

The sweat in Wu Jin's palms immediately soaked the sugar, and the sweet smell emanated from his fingers, and even his eyes were covered with a layer of fragrance.

That kid is a beggar begging for money on Yuhua Street, named Qi Chang, who often begs him for oil cakes to eat, and he doesn't even have a home, what's the use of cutting grass?

As for the other four men and one woman, it didn't look like they were mowing the grass, but like they were selling.

This group of people should be a caravan that specializes in "leaking ships".

He suddenly remembered the sentence he heard in the academy: "Don't use mules, that was the rule of your Mo family a hundred years ago, and now that people have changed, the rules have naturally changed!" ”

The little beggar is the mule, and the mule used to explore the road and transport goods is bought and sold.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Mo Lingfeng.

Mo Lingfeng looked straight at the group of people, except for the candy in his mouth, he didn't move anywhere, as if he was waiting for this group of people to cross the river.

The little beggar led the way in front of him step by step, and the caravan followed him with good footprints, getting closer and closer to Mo Lingfeng.

When Wu Jin looked at them, they also looked at them frequently, and the fierce light in their eyes was undisguised.

The leaky merchant is brutal.

Wu Jin once heard Huang Yapo say that when the human mules used by the leaky ship merchants died, the leaky ship merchants would shave the mules and eat them, and then grind the bones into pills and sell them privately as a fragrant medicine.

They looked here, and there was no one in the four fields, and if the caravan was suspicious, they were afraid that it would cause trouble.

He turned his horse's head and said in a low voice, "Miss Mo, let's go." ”

Mo Lingfeng nodded vaguely, reined in the bridle, and walked in the direction of the horse garden with Wu Jin.

Walking out not far away, Wu Jin couldn't help but turn around again, and saw that the little beggar had already taken people across the river.

The little beggar seemed to recognize him, and looked at him frequently, with a sad face and tears in his eyes.

Seeing this, a man stepped forward and walked up to the little beggar and asked carefully.

Wu Jin held the bridle tightly with one hand and the sugar with the other, the palm of his hand became more and more wet, the sugar was sticky and sticky to the palm of his hand, and the sweetness became stronger and stronger.

The leaky merchant and the Mo family are both behemoths, and when he is caught in them, he is a mayfly who is beyond his own strength.

It's just that people and mules are pitiful.

He suppressed his beating heart, put the candy in his sleeve, and said to Mo Lingfeng: "You go first, I'll come when I go." ”

Turning the horse's head again, he went to the river, turned over and dismounted, rushed to the little beggar with an arrow step, grabbed his shirt with his hand, and dragged the little beggar on the horse with infinite strength: "Qi Chang, you let me find it!" The money owed to me is gone, and if it weren't for the academy coming here for classes today, I wouldn't have found it! ”

He held the little beggar's ass and pushed it up, and the little beggar also grabbed the horse pedal and climbed up, Wu Jin's mouth still kept talking: "Go, let our teacher be in the middle, you give me a debt!" You're embarrassed to rely on my hard-earned money! ”

He came quickly and urgently, and the group of people were stunned at first, and then you look at me, I look at you, and then look at Wu Jin, all like watching a play.

They haven't seen any scenes, Wu Jin's style is simply ridiculous, only courage is commendable.

When the little beggar got on the horse with all odds and dangers, and Wu Jin was about to get on the horse, he walked out alone and grabbed Wu Jin's wrist with lightning speed.

"Xiucaigong," he opened his mouth without smiling, "good people can't just do it." ”

Wu Jin was covered with hot sweat and rested in an instant, and her whole body was cold: "You really can't be a good person, otherwise you won't even get the money back, please let go of your hand, my teacher can't find me, it's time to worry." ”

The man sneered, but he really let go.

They don't want to make a big fuss, especially since the gentlemen and students of the college are stubborn like donkeys.

He looked at the little beggar on the horse with his hands in his hands: "Boy, I will pay back the cake money for you, come down." ”

The little beggar trembled like chaff and lay down on his horse, and when the man saw this, he sneered and stretched out his hand to drag him off the horse.

Wu Jin stretched out his sweaty hand and blocked him: "I'm leaving, get out of the way." ”

Seeing this, the man's eyes showed a fierce look, and several men behind him pressed their hands on their waists.

At this moment, Mo Lingfeng's sweet and crisp voice came: "Liu Chengqi." ”

The man standing next to Wu Jin was stunned for a moment, and when he looked behind the horse, he saw that Mo Lingfeng had not gone far, and at this time he returned from the horse, and the gold collar around his neck was particularly eye-catching.

She jumped off her horse and walked over to Wu Jin.

Liu Chengqi's expression changed, and he smiled instead: "Miss Mo, I didn't expect to see you here, the river bank is dangerous, you better go back to the racecourse quickly." ”

With that, he glanced at Wu Jin again.

Wu Jin was shocked to realize that his hands were shaking badly, and he hurriedly hid them in his sleeves.

Mo Lingfeng stared: "Don't worry about it." ”

She stretched out her hand and pointed to the only woman in the group: "Come here." ”

The woman looked at Liu Chengqi like a frightened bird, Liu Chengqi nodded, and the woman took a step forward and walked to Mo Lingfeng's side with a trembling step: "I've seen Miss Mo." ”

Mo Lingfeng waved to the female guard who followed her: "Yin Nan, look at what good things she brought back." ”

"No!" Liu Chengqi was just about to stretch out his hand, but the female guard who called Yin Nan was already one step ahead of him, flashed in front of the woman, squatted on the ground, stretched out his hand to reach under the skirt, and then dragged down, only to hear the woman's miserable scream, her face turned white instantly, and she fell to the ground.

The contents of the basket on her back also fell out - only a layer of grass on top, and a strange stone of colored beads underneath.

Blood flowed quickly from her body, pooled beneath her, and soaked into the mud and sand of the riverbank, leaving only the strong, pungent smell of rust.

And Yin Nan's hands were stained with blood, holding an elephant tusk half an arm's length.

Wu Jin stared at Yin Nan's hands, his eyes straightened, his face was pale with the stimulation of bloody ivory, and the entire Shuo River flowed fiercely in his mind, not water, but blood.

Ya Po's gossip, and the pitiful little beggar, were not as straightforward as they are now, spreading a hell out in front of him.

The sky turned leaden gray, the wind whined, the river was surging uncontrollably, the horses were restlessly turning their hooves, and there were distant shouts in the distance, but Wu Jin didn't hear anything, only knew that his lips were trembling.

Liu Chengqi's face changed again and again, and he motioned for someone to take the woman away, cleared the things, and looked at the black spots in the distance - he couldn't tell who was coming.

He became impatient and said to Mo Lingfeng: "Dirty your eyes, it's really damned, the villains will take the first step, and then go to the mansion to make amends." ”

Mo Lingfeng grimaced: "Don't use mules." ”
