"The people who can manage this canal are those who have a direct relationship with Mr. Zhu. They are basically Mr. Zhu's confidants, and they directly take orders from Mr. Zhu."
"Although this Zhu Yuewu is in the limelight and is said to be the next head of the Zhu family, he is not yet the current head of the Zhu family. Therefore, he does not dare to be presumptuous in front of the elders of his father's generation."
"Although the guard is not the person who manages Yangliudu, he is also a relative of the manager. He has the protection of the manager, and they are just arresting ship thieves normally. Zhu Yuewu did not dare to say anything, so he will definitely suffer the consequences of this mute. "
After hearing his master's explanation, the young apprentice felt that he seemed to know the whole story. He let out a soft sigh, and then just whispered, "So that's what happened. We won't implicate them. Then I will not worried."
On the ferry on the other side, all you can see is the rolling river and the rippling water. Under the moonlight, you can see the mountains and stone walls on both sides of the bank, and the sound of the chirping of apes can be heard all the time.
Zhu Yuewu was very upset while sitting on the boat. At this moment, he even regretted that he had followed the other party's boat.
After all, his purpose in taking the boat was to catch up with the boat, but now it seemed that they were getting further and further away from the two people.
Even when he reached this place with many riverbanks and bays, he couldn't even see the two people's boat.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but urge the boatmen who were rowing, "What's going on with you? Why is this person getting further and further away under your leadership? Can you move a little faster?" ah!"
Hearing what the other party said, the boatman was obviously not easy to deal with. He said coldly, "Why are you urging me? I didn't see that there are many bays here. Is the current still fast? What if we are driving too fast! Why are you urging me so much?" Are you going to die?"
After hearing this, the people around Zhu Yuewu couldn't help but prepare to draw their swords.
However, Zhu Yuewu was holding down the opponent's arm at this time. After all, he was still somewhat concerned about his own safety. So after the boatman's words fell, he could only hold back his anger and asked, "Okay, then you can just tell me which direction this boat channel leads to."
Hearing Zhu Yuewu's question, the boatman only said in a vague tone, "It's hard to say this. They can go to the east of the river in the city, they can go ashore at any port, and they can even leave Yunzhou if they are far away. city."
Hearing what the boatman said, Zhu Yuewu only felt even more angry. It's the same as if the other party didn't say this.
But now he was in the river, and he still needed the boatman, so he couldn't vent his anger on the riverman. Therefore, he soon vented his anger on Chen Jin, "You trash, you keep saying this." It makes sense, but in the end, you were asked to arrest two women, but you allowed them to escape under our noses. What use do I need from you? Can you tell us what we should do now?"
Chen Jin was yelled at by Zhu Yuewu inexplicably. At the moment, he just felt that everything was too inexplicable. After all, his judgment was not wrong. He only speculated where the two people were, but he was not responsible for arresting them. Instead, Zhu Yuewu was The person who was responsible for the entire arrest arrangement, so losing track of the other party should be Zhu Yuewu's own problem no matter how you look at it. However, facing the label that Zhu Yuewu put on him, he did not dare to refute.
Not only could he not refute, but he also had to cooperate with Zhu Yue's martial arts saying, "Yes, it's all the villain's fault. It's the villain's fault."
Seeing that Chen Jin's attitude was quite upright, Zhu Yuewu lost some of his anger for a moment. He just said coldly, "Tell me, which direction should we go to find someone now?"
Faced with Zhu Yuewu's inquiry, Chen Jin said directly this time, "I don't know about this. After all, Yunzhou City is so big. If you have to find it, you can only set up one at every level." One level passed."
Hearing Chen Jin's answer, Zhu Yuewu was obviously not satisfied, but the boatman on the side suddenly said, "If you want to know where they are, it's not easy. You just need to look at where the ship is docked, and then you can patrol that direction." Can’t we find them?”
After hearing what the boatman said, Zhu Yuewu immediately nodded in agreement.
Obviously, what the boatman said was exactly what Zhu Yuewu wanted.
he
He nodded, "That makes sense, let's continue going downstream."
Seeing that Zhu Yuewu followed his own train of thought, the boatman immediately said yes.
Then he took Zhu Yuewu directly downstream.
And this time, time will only disappear from it in a hurry.
Let's talk about Taoist Niu and his young apprentice. At this time, Taoist Niu just led his apprentice directly and returned to the tunnel in the temple in a swaggering manner. ap.
Li Yunlan and Ji Xiang in the tunnel were only listening to what was going on outside.
At first they could hear some voices, but soon after Master Niu left, the voices in the room became farther and farther away, and they could not hear anything anymore. And at this time, they All that can be done is to wait and listen.
On the one hand, they were only somewhat looking forward to hearing news from the other party, but on the other hand, they were somewhat afraid of hearing news from the other party. After all, before Master Niu went out, he had already told them that if he did not send any If he made a sound, it meant he was safe. If he made a sound, it meant he was caught and they had to run away.
Although they have not heard any news from Taoist Niu at the moment, under such circumstances, people will undoubtedly still be used to thinking wildly.
For example, he would worry about whether they had actually been arrested, but it was just because they hadn't had time to sound the alarm yet that they couldn't hear anything.
And the lack of a normal response to this conjecture only makes people more uneasy.
After arriving, Li Yunzhen was the only child here who actually comforted the two adults around him.
But just as the two of them relaxed their thoughts, there was another slight noise coming from the direction of the entrance not far away.
Everyone immediately became frightened when they heard the sound. For a moment, no one knew what the sound meant.
Could it be that those people left and came back again?
When they thought of this, the three of them held their breath at the same time.
Li Yunlan only subconsciously wanted to hide his daughter at this time. However, this tunnel was not big at all, or rather than saying that it was a tunnel, it was better to say that it was a small darkroom used to store things. Although there is nothing here now There were no more piles, but looking around, there was nothing everywhere. There was no place to hide.
Seeing this situation, Li Yunlan only felt a sense of despair.
However, Ji Xiang on the side suddenly lowered his voice and said, "It's quite dark in this cave. How about we all hide in the direction of the stairs at the entrance of the cave. If they dare to come down, how about we use this to sneak attack them?"
While talking, Ji Xiang quickly took out three awls from the ground nearby. Although the awls were not big, they were sharp. If they used them properly, they could hurt people.
Of course, the most important thing is that they have no better choice now.
So Li Yunlan took the awl without hesitation. At the same time, he only put the other awl in his daughter's hand. He whispered, "Yunzhen, you can hide in my house later." Behind you, when Jixiang and I take action, don’t come over. This awl is to save your life. If you feel something is wrong, you can take action again, do you hear me?”
Faced with her father's instructions, Li Yunzhen just said in a coy voice, "I heard it."
After receiving Li Yunzhen's answer, Li Yunlan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Then he just led Li Yunzhen down the steps behind him.
There was no light in this dark room, but Li Yunzhen felt an incomparable sense of security.
I don’t know how long they walked in the dark, but soon the three of them arrived at the bottom of the steps.
At the same time, after they hid, the door of the secret passage was also opened.
It's just strange that the person who came in didn't light the candle, and while Li Yunlan was thinking about what everything was going on.
The two figures also came down the steps. Without thinking, Li Yunlan and Ji Xiang rushed up at the same time.
Then they only pressed on each other, and they only tried to stab the two people in the dark with the awls in their hands.
Just when the awl was about to hit the two of them, a loud voice suddenly shouted, "Old Li! It's me! It's me!"
Although the person didn't give his name, Li Yunlan still recognized the other person just by his voice. Wasn't that voice Lao Niu? And only this old cunning guy would call himself Lao Li.
Realizing that the person opposite was Taoist Niu, Li Yunlan immediately hugged Taoist Niu in surprise and asked, "Is that you, Old Niu?"
Jixiang on the other side had obviously felt that something was wrong.
She could clearly feel that the person she was pressing seemed to be a half-grown child, so at the moment when she was about to take action directly, she did not dare to take action directly.
The child who was currently being pressed by her was not harmed by her pressure.
The young apprentice was initially frightened and a little overwhelmed. Fortunately, Jixiang heard Li Yunlan calling Taoist Niu first, so she immediately determined that this kid was probably Taoist Niu's apprentice.
However, out of caution, although he felt that the other party was probably Taoist Master Niu's disciple, she still took out a fire seal from her arms before letting him go. Then she blew the fire seal and used it to In the dim light, she also discovered that the man was actually Taoist Master Niu's disciple.
After realizing that he had pressed the wrong person, Ji Xiang's little face also turned red.
Then she immediately got off the other person's body.
"I'm sorry, little Taoist priest, I thought those bad guys were here, so I took action. I didn't expect it was you."
