Qian Fugui, who was focused on carrying his bag, followed the gaze of his men in confusion, and then saw three large ships from Rongguo Mansion leaving the dock and approaching the center of the canal.
Only then did he realize that his job was to keep an eye on the ship at the dock.
Realizing this, he didn't have the energy to carry props and cotton, so he just threw it away and ran out of the pier.
A minute later, he ran into a nearby inn and rushed directly to the second floor. He didn't even bother knocking on the door to call for help, and just opened the door and entered.
"old…"
Stop talking, Qian Fugui can't even take his eyes away.
"ah."
After a scream, an angry voice sounded in the box.
"Money...rich...noble, are you looking for death?"
Only then did Qian Fugui realize what had happened, and withdrew with an embarrassed look on his face. His old face turned red, and he murmured to himself unconsciously.
"So big...so white..."
Qian Fugui had a silly smile on his face.
"Come in!"
Hearing this roar, Qian Fugui was shocked.
"No, I made the boss angry."
Even so, he didn't dare not go in. After all, the consequences of disobedience would be more serious.
"Hey, boss."
The person who was called boss was a young man with a sinister look on his face, named Shi Li. Although Shi Li was young, his family background was not ordinary.
It is said that he was born to a concubine of a certain marquis. Although his status may not be as good as his legitimate son, he was still quite powerful when his father was still alive.
Shi Li thought of the good thing that had been interrupted just now, and was very unhappy, so he asked with a sullen face.
"If you can't come up with any important reasons, you know the consequences."
Qian Fugui instantly thought of the Ten Thousand Poison Pit, where scorpions, centipedes, snakes, spiders and other highly poisonous animals were placed in the same pit.
If people were thrown in, I'm afraid... they would have been frightened to death before being poisoned first.
He once saw a traitor thrown in, and he was so frightened that he couldn't sleep all night, and even the shrill screams still echoed in his ears.
Not daring to be negligent, Qian Fugui replied tremblingly.
"Boss, those three boats have already left."
"What?"
Shi Li stood up with a shocked look on his face, walked quickly to the window, and then saw the three conspicuous large ships in the middle of the canal. The words "Rong Guofu... Jia" floating in the wind on the ships were so dazzling.
"What's going on? Didn't I ask you to hold Jia Lian until night before letting him go?"
Shi Li was not questioning Qian Fugui, but looking at a woman in the room, a charming and mature woman.
"Sir, I just received news that Jia Lian has not left Yingchun Pavilion."
The voice was so charming that Qian Fugui couldn't help but raise his head, glanced at the beautiful woman quickly, and then quickly lowered his head. He really didn't dare to look at the boss's woman for fear of being thrown into a pit of poison.
Nonetheless, he added.
"Boss, Chun Niang did not lie. None of the brothers saw anyone boarding the ship, but they saw several people disembarking from the ship to look for Jia Lian."
Shi Li frowned, feeling angry and having nowhere to vent his anger.
There's nothing I can do about it. Who knows if it's not the fault of my subordinates? You can't blame yourself.
But how could the plan fail for no reason?
How could Lin Daiyu let go of Jia Lian and return to Beijing alone?
Seeing that he didn't speak, Qian Fugui asked cautiously.
"Boss, should we catch up with him in a small boat?"
Shi Li was still sensible and knew not to take action during the day, and the closer he got to the capital, the more cautious he had to be.
He shook his head helplessly and decided.
"No need, the plan has failed, Chun Niang, Jia Lian, don't drag him anymore, let him go."
"yes."
In the blink of an eye, the room was empty.
At the same time, a dark shadow flashed across the roof.
On the Jia family's ship, Ye Yuan had already learned about the conversation in the box through his newly learned magical... spiritual sense induction, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
"Who is Shi Li? It's not like an official figure, more like a gang. Whose secret force is this?"
If you can't figure it out, don't waste your brain cells.
After all, he doesn't know much about this world.
Then, Ye Yuan said to Daiyu.
"They should not dare to take action blatantly. We can slow down a little. Maybe Jia Lian will catch up after a while."
The ice-snow and smart Daiyu understood Ye Yuan's meaning quickly and ordered the ship to slow down.
At the same time, Zhu Zhuqing's voice sounded in Ye Yuan's mind, and her incarnation was actually still tracking Shi Li.
"How about I torture him severely and investigate the matter clearly?"
Ye Yuan thought for a while and said.
"No, just follow Shi Li. I'll let Yuehua pass. Her abilities are more suitable for this."
"good."
Ye Yuan flicked his hand, and a stream of light flew towards the shore.
The second-level Tang Yuehua transformed into Feidun and was not worried about being discovered by ordinary people. Even if he was discovered, he would only think that he was dazzled.
A quarter of an hour later, Tang Yuehua found Shi Li's house based on Zhu Zhuqing's induction.
Against an ordinary person, Tang Yuehua didn't use any magical skills. He just used his magical power to play a piece of music, and Shi Li confessed everything without knowing it.
However, the truth he told was so poisonous that it shattered Ye Yuan's outlook on life.
"I never thought the truth would be like this!"
Satisfied his curiosity, Ye Yuan directly recalled the two incarnations.
As for the interest entanglement behind Shi Li, Ye Yuan was no longer interested in dealing with it. After all, it was none of his business.
He went to obtain information just to satisfy his curiosity.
As Ye Yuan expected, an hour later, Jia Lian and several servants caught up in a fast boat.
After boarding the ship, Jia Lian was filled with resentment and asked like a resentful woman whose husband has not been home for a long time.
"Why did my cousin leave in such a hurry and didn't even wait for me?"
This tone sounded more and more like an angry little daughter-in-law.
But this is normal, he was at fault after all.
What he did was not honorable. If the defendant had given it to the tigress at home, the peeling skin would have been light.
Moreover, Daiyu has lived in Jia's house for more than four years, so Jia Lian still doesn't know her cousin.
His ability to quarrel with others is unparalleled and unrivaled.
In the past, this was unreasonable and we had to fight for three points, let alone now it is reasonable.
Therefore, he cannot and dare not be tough.
Daiyu really lived up to his expectations, Feng Qingyun calmly retorted.
"If I had known that my cousin would say this, I wouldn't have slowed down and waited for you."
After saying this, she waved her hand and issued an order without waiting for Jia Lian's reaction.
"Full speed ahead."
Then, she went back to her room to read, leaving Jia Lian alone in the wind.
That's right, he was the only one. Ye Yuan had already taken Xiao Tao back to the house to learn magic.
The notebook that Mo Yu sent him last time recorded several basic magical techniques, and divine induction was one of them.
I have to say that although it is basic, it is extremely practical. As long as you condense a mark, you can have a real-time video with the person holding the mark.
