The young woman picked up the dead girl and murmured:
"Son, wait a minute, mother, she will be here soon... Don't be afraid, ah, be good..."
Before anyone could react, the young woman holding the girl's body had already jumped into the fast moat!
"No!"
Seeing how crazy the young woman was, everyone screamed, but they could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.
"mother……"
Whether it was an illusion or an illusion, everyone vaguely saw the young woman swallowed by the moat holding the hand of the girl who had just been drowned and walking towards the sky step by step...
Xiao Zhouzhou gradually woke up in the bumpy carriage.
She slowly opened her eyes, and what she saw was a dilapidated carriage carriage, and the carriage was speeding.
"Where is this place?"
She rubbed her temples and looked at the window doubtfully.
The windows were open, and the carriage was swaying from side to side in the wind.
Seeing the jungle outside, her heart suddenly contracted!
My nose felt sour and I burst into tears.
Her heart was filled with fear, and she kept asking where this place was and why she fell asleep in the carriage.
However, she could not find the answer because there was no one else in the carriage except her.
The driver was like an emotionless robot. No matter how the boat cried, he still drove the carriage at full speed without any sign of stopping!
"Mom, I want mom! I want to go home! Woohoo, I want to go home!"
Xiao Zhouzhou cried louder and louder, and finally, in her crying, she finally realized that she had been abducted!
Now how to do?
Xiao Zhouzhou remembered what Zhang Yue had said to her before that none of the abducted children had a good ending. She was frightened for a moment and her tears became even more intense.
While she was crying, she took out her candy from her arms, intending to eat some candy to boost her courage!
She opened the paper bag, took out the candy inside, and was about to stuff it into her mouth when she suddenly heard the sound of the carriage stopping.
"Stop! Stop it!"
She quickly put the candy in her hand back, opened the curtain, saw several people dressed as government officials, and knew that they were from the government office.
So she shouted to them for help:
"Uncle, help!"
Upon hearing this, the government officials raised their heads and looked at the people in the carriage.
I saw Xiao Zhouzhou with a look of horror and fear, looking at them with pleading eyes.
The officials exchanged glances with each other.
"What happened to her?"
The leader of the government officials asked the coachman coldly.
The coachman smiled, took out a piece of silver from his pocket and put it in the hand of the leading yamen servant:
"My lord, please don't believe this damn girl's lies. Even though she is young, she is very thoughtful! She is used to living a comfortable life in my grandfather's house, and she refuses to go home with me to live a hard life."
"No, that's not the case. You lied. Mom said lying is not a good boy. You are bad. I don't know you!"
Xiao Zhouzhou shouted angrily.
The driver glared at Xiao Zhouzhou fiercely, and his vicious eyes seemed to warn Xiao Zhouzhou to shut up!
Although Xiao Zhouzhou was young, she already had some experience. She knew that the driver was threatening her.
She flattened her mouth in frustration, lowered her head, and said no more words.
The coachman was very satisfied when he saw this, and then he took out a piece of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the hand of the leading yamen servant, showing a flattering smile:
"My lord, it's getting late. We, father and daughter, have to hurry. Please make it easier."
The government officials looked at the generous coachman and were very suspicious of his identity.
One second he said that his family was living a hard life, and the next second he casually took out two ingots of silver to spend some money. Isn't this behavior too abnormal?
Looking at the poor appearance of the coachman, it is difficult to imagine how he could have such a beautiful daughter?
But they didn't expose the coachman's trick. After all, they didn't know the coachman's background yet, and it would be a disaster if they alerted the driver.
"Okay, leave quickly, leave quickly, you're crying and crying, you're going to make a fuss!"
The leading yamen servant stuffed the two ingots of silver given by the coachman into his own arms, and impatiently waved his hand to urge the coachman to leave quickly!
"Yes, yes, thank you, sir!"
The coachman promised repeatedly and continued to drive the carriage.
Looking at the speeding carriage, a young yamen servant said puzzledly:
"Brother, that coachman seems to have a big problem, why don't we stop him?"
"Don't worry, this road can only lead to Jiuzhou City. Wouldn't it be nice to catch turtles in an urn then? Bring the flying pigeons quickly!"
The leader of the Yamen said calmly.
A government official took the order and left, and after a while he brought a white pigeon.
The leader of the government office took out a piece of paper, quickly wrote a sentence on it, and then stuffed it into the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg.
The dove flaps its wings and soars high!
Inside the carriage, it looked increasingly desolate, and Xiao Zhouzhou looked anxious.
She looked at the white dove flying in the sky not far away, and really wished that she could fly freely like the white dove.
…
Kyushu Villa.
"The profit from this salt is really not that big. Do you know how high the daily profits of Guangzhou Army are?"
Li Yuyan looked at the account book excitedly and asked Bai Zhancheng.
"A hundred taels? Isn't that equal to a hundred taels?!"
Bai Zhancheng looked shocked.
You must know that his Bai family army's military salary for less than half a month can't even use a hundred taels!
"Yes, this is only a small part of Zhou Dajun, not counting the ones we sent out to sell!"
Li Yuyan said proudly.
If it was fanciful to clamor for revenge against the emperor before, then now, he really feels that he is a big step closer to the goal of revenge!
"No wonder the imperial court didn't disclose the method of making salt to the public. It turns out that the profits are so huge!"
Bai Zhancheng sighed:
"Thanks to Lin Xiao for all this."
When Li Yuyan heard this, he showed a look of approval:
"Yes, it is indeed all her fault. If it weren't for her, I'm afraid I would still be thinking about how to save the money to hire a killer."
"Why does such a rare talent have no political ambitions?!"
Bai Zhancheng was sighing with regret when a white flying pigeon landed on the table. He immediately grabbed the bamboo tube on the pigeon's feet, opened the bamboo tube and took out a letter.
Seeing the content on the letterhead, his expression suddenly changed:
"Damn it!"
Li Yuyan also came over. After seeing the content of the letter, his expression suddenly condensed:
"How dare you kidnap and sell a young girl? It's a crime that cannot be punished!"
No matter in which era, everyone has a zero-tolerance attitude towards human traffickers!
Li Yuyan and Bai Zhancheng discussed for a while and decided to take this opportunity to wipe out this criminal gang!
The coachman was traveling extremely fast. It originally took about six days to reach Jiuzhou City, but now he arrived in less than five days. It was extremely fast!
The driver was on his way and didn't notice that he was being watched.
He entered Jiuzhou City at the last moment when the city gates closed, drove the carriage to a hidden location, and waited until nightfall before taking the sleeping Zhouzhou out of the carriage.
Taking advantage of the darkness, he carried Xiao Zhouzhou into a dark alley...
