Chapter 269: Selfless and Generous (1st Update)
Everyone followed the sign left by Xu Jing all the way and moved forward quickly, and soon, some officials were surprised: "This ...... This seems to be the direction of Acacia Cliff! ”
Acacia Cliff, is a mountain cliff close to the Nu River outside the Xijing City, the Nujiang River hookah waves are mighty, in the land of Dachu from north to south, the water is deep and urgent.
It is rumored that there was a princess who was named by the saint to kiss her, and eloped with a child of a family who was a childhood sweetheart, and was forced to this lovesick cliff by the soldiers who chased her all the way, and the princess consciously affected her lover, and committed suicide by jumping into the river in great grief, and the children of the family could not be rescued, and also jumped down, and the body has not been found so far.
Later, the common people gave this cliff a name, called Acacia Cliff.
Others are aware of this, too.
Could it be a kidnapper, is it on the other side of Acacia Cliff?
It's all forests over there, I'm afraid there won't even be a proper hiding place, what is he going to do over there?!
On the other side, Xu Jing and Yao Shaoyin were hiding in the forest near the Acacia Cliff, their eyes staring closely at the Acacia Cliff not far away.
The servants they brought were also scattered around, just to be on the safe side, they didn't bring too many servants here, and most of them stayed outside to be on standby.
It's already cold in October, let alone at night.
And on the edge of the cliff where the wind gathers, it seems that the whole person is wrapped in the cold night wind all the time.
Yao Shaoyin, a big man, couldn't help but rub his hands, looked at Xu Jing on the side, and said worriedly: "Xu Niang, you are dressed so thinly, you won't catch a cold?" ”
Xu Jing's eyes did not leave the Acacia Cliff, and whispered: "It's okay, we won't stay here for too long." ”
"However, if Xu Niangzi's guess is wrong, Yang Quanfu will not come here? After all, we've searched the neighborhood just now, and we can't even see the shadow of the child. ”
Xu Jing said lightly: "This is not necessarily Yang Quanfu's hiding place, but after he gets all the ransom, he will most likely come here." ”
As she spoke, she suddenly caught the faint sound of the wheels of the carriage rolling across the road, and immediately raised her right index finger to her lips, lowered her voice, and said, "Here!" ”
Yao Shaoyin straightened up suddenly, looking incredulous.
No, I was really guessed right by the!
After waiting for a long time, they saw that on the only path leading to this acacia cliff in the forest, a small and simple carriage came, and the man sitting in the driver's position was not Yang Quanfu and who was it!
But seeing him with a calm face, driving the carriage all the way to the edge of the cliff, seeing that he didn't mean to stop the carriage at all, the carriage was getting closer and closer to the edge of the cliff, Yao Shaoyin's eyes were getting wider and wider, and he almost couldn't hold back and jumped out.
This Yang Quanfu doesn't want to drive the carriage down the cliff directly!
However, out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the on the side were still motionless, and while he wondered in his heart, he also suppressed his emotions.
Seeing that when he was less than six feet (two meters) away from the cliff, the carriage finally stopped, and Yao Shaoyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In the next breath, I saw Yang Quanfu jump down, suddenly pushed open the carriage door, leaned in as if he was taking something, Yao Shaoyin's heart was raised again.
Immediately, he watched Yang Quanfu move bags of gold bars one after another, and moved eight big bags! Then they were neatly stacked on the edge of the cliff.
After doing all this, he leaned into the carriage again, and this time it was clearly two eight or nine-year-old children who were tied up and even their mouths were gagged!
He even brought two hostages with him!
This was an unexpected joy, he originally thought that he would have to follow Yang Quanfu back to his hiding place in order to find the two children.
Seeing that the two children were in tears and looking at Yang Quanfu with a look of fear, Xu Hanguang was even more excited, and desperately made a sound, as if he wanted to say something.
Yang Quanfu didn't look at them, and after tying them to the carriage with the ropes on their bodies, he turned around and walked to the gold bars, and looked down at the Nu River below for a while, not knowing what he was thinking.
Suddenly, he took a step back, lifted his foot fiercely, and with a loud "poof", a bag full of gold bars fell into the boiling river.
Yao Shaoyin's eyes were about to pop out.
This...... It's all real gold!
Just such a bag of gold bars is enough to make the world crazy.
This Yang Quanfu actually kicked it into the river like this!
Immediately afterwards, Yang Quanfu continued to kick down the gold bars piled up on the edge of the cliff one by one.
Although it was not his own gold, Yao Shaoyin was still subconsciously distressed, and couldn't help but look at the on the side.
They were in ambush among the people around them, and they had good archers.
In the current situation, it is not difficult for their people to shoot Yang Quanfu.
However, this place was discovered by Xu Jing, and the ambush near here was also deployed by Xu Jing.
Seeing that Xu Jing hadn't moved for a long time, Yao Shaoyin couldn't help but approach her and whispered, "Xu Niang, don't you take action yet?" At the moment, it seems that he has no other accomplices, and the two children are also some distance away from him, and they are the best opportunity to act. ”
Originally, they were worried that Yang Quanfu would bring other accomplices over, but the moment he kicked the gold bars into the river, Yao Shaoyin was sure that there were no accomplices around him!
If there are his accomplices, seeing him so wasted the ransom that he finally obtained, he would not turn against him on the spot?!
Xu Jing was unhurried and said, "Observe for a while." ”
Seeing that Yang Quanfu kicked the last bag of gold bars into the river, Xu Jingcai stood up suddenly, raised his hand and said, "Act immediately!" ”
Yao Shaoyin on the side: "......"
How did he have the feeling that the were deliberate?
No, no, no, the group of people in the Xu family treated Xu Niangzi like this, and Xu Niangzi also rescued Xu Hanguang wholeheartedly, such a selfless and generous woman, how could he use such a dark mind to speculate on her!
Yang Quanfu's reaction was also fast, and the moment Xu Jing's voice came out, he turned around abruptly with a look of surprise.
In the next breath, only a small sound of a sharp arrow piercing through the air was heard, and an arrow shot out from the forest next to him, heading straight for Yang Quanfu.
Yang Quanfu avoided the vital position at the last moment, and the arrow finally shot into his left shoulder.
At the moment when Xu Jing spoke, in addition to the arrows shot, two officials also ran out from both sides of the forest at the same time, and quickly headed towards the two children.
However, just when they were still a few steps away from the two children, Yang Quanfu had already reacted, gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow on his shoulder, pulled out a dagger from his waist, and pounced on Xu Hanguang among the two children.
Xu Hanguang's face was pale, his face was full of fear, he subconsciously took a step back, pulled Wang Baojun beside him, and pushed him towards Yang Quanfu.
In the next breath, the two officials also arrived, and seeing that Wang Baojun was already controlled by Yang Quanfu, they could only use a knife to cut the rope that tied Xu Hanguang and pulled the person over.
In the end, I watched Yang Quanfu hold Wang Baojun hostage and slowly walked to the edge of the cliff.
