Chapter 523 Mysterious Wooden Box
There was water on the deck, and the little girl crawled twice but couldn't get up. The bearded man waved the whip in his hand again, and he was about to suck the child.
Suddenly, the man felt a flash of sight, as if something flashed by, coming and going. He whipped it in the air and whipped it hard on the deck, but the little slave who was originally lying on the ground disappeared.
The whip was whipping on the deck very loudly, and with a "bang", the boat owner was whipped directly. Then the old man screamed and cursed: "You are going to die? This boat is on the river. If you take it off, I will be the first to send you to feed fish and shrimp!"
The bearded man was also a ruthless person. When he heard the boat boss speak so impolitely, he didn't say anything and whipped the whip and wanted to suck the boat boss.
After such a fuss, the boatmen stopped doing it and rushed up to tear him. In addition, the passengers who were watching the fun were also accusing the bearded man, which stopped him in a short while. He also knew how stupid it was to destroy the deck on the boat, but he soon remembered the reason why he accidentally pulled the deck, so he quickly looked around and finally caught his eyes in a place. A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl was pulling his little slave and asking questions. There was a man wearing a hat standing beside her. For some reason, he always felt that the person under the hat was staring at him, and the staring made him feel a chill immediately.
"Hmph!" He calmed down, snorted and gave himself courage, and walked forward a few steps before shouting: "What a boldness! Is there a robber on this boat? That's my slave, why did you snatch it away?" He wanted to curse, but the ugly words came to his mouth but couldn't say a word. A dangerous consciousness invaded his nerves. He intuitively believed that once his mouth became dirty, he would immediately be wiped out by the other party without mercy. But the slave was his, and there was nothing wrong with him asking him back, so he shouted again - "Bitch! Come back quickly!"
The little girl was so scared that she was trembling by the fear of him, but she still couldn't help but walk towards the bearded man. She was a slave and the contract was in the hands of others. What else could she do if she didn't go back?
But just after taking less than two steps in the calf, Feng Yuheng took her hand but pulled it back, and immediately pulled the child back.
The bearded man could see clearly and asked dissatisfiedly: "What the hell do you want to do?"
Feng Yuheng winked at Wangchuan, and Wangchuan immediately sang: "Don't you have eyes? We are inspecting the goods!"
“Inspecting the goods?”
"Nonsense!" Huang Quan cursed: "Aren't you a slave sold? If we want to buy this girl, we naturally have to inspect the goods first and see if we are good."
When the man heard that the other party was buying slaves, he immediately changed into a smile, stepped forward a few more steps, and began to sell his slaves constantly. Feng Yuheng was annoyed and pulled the girl back to Yaxiang. Xuan Tianming ordered, "Buy it." Then he followed in, leaving Huang Quan Wangchuan and the other two to trade with the bearded man.
As soon as the three of them entered the Yaxiang, Xuan Tianming immediately turned his hand and closed the door. He heard Feng Yuheng pull the girl and ask anxiously: "Tell me, where does the red rope on your wrist come from?"
The little girl had a red rope on her wrist, which looked ordinary. Even the bearded slave owner didn't care about it. She thought it was just an ordinary rope, so the little girl wore it. But Feng Yuheng recognized that the red rope was taken out of the space. Zi Rui looked at it and wanted to wear it on her wrist. The rope was not from this era. She believed that such a craft could not be found in this era, but because it was already very dirty, she really couldn't tell if she didn't look carefully.
The little girl was a little scared and hid timidly. At this time, Wangchuan's voice came from outside: "Master, I've bought it."
Xuan Tianming opened the door and took a contract for selling his body. After closing the door, he raised his head to the girl: "We have bought you. From now on, we will be your master. The master asked, but you won't answer truthfully!"
When the little girl heard that she had been bought, she looked at Feng Yuheng again and suddenly realized that she must be much better than being in the hands of a big beard. But she still asked with concern: "Will you hit me? Wouldn't you give me food?"
Feng Yuheng shook his head, "No. As long as you know what you say, your life will be like an ordinary girl in the future. Just serve her with all your heart."
The little girl breathed a sigh of relief and then told the origin of the red rope: "The big beard locked us at the dock and sold it for three days. The next day, two days ago, a group of people went to the dock to wait for the boat. One of them was carrying a large cage and covered it with a black cloth. When the cage passed by me, the black cloth was blown open by the river wind, and I saw a little brother there. He also saw me, but the black cloth closed soon and I couldn't see him, but the red rope fell out of the cage." The girl said while pointing at the red rope on her wrist, "I looked good, so I picked it up and put it on. The big beard looked at it once and found that it was a broken rope, so she ignored me and put it on with me."
The little girl was talking about other people's affairs, but when she talked about the boy in the cage, she had a feeling of unbearable expression on her face. She said: "That little brother is so pitiful. The space in the cage is very small. It must be very uncomfortable for him to huddle in it."
Feng Yuheng's heart hurts the more he hears it. He hears that the space in the cage is very small and almost collapses. Xuan Tianming presses her shoulders on the side and keeps saying: "Calm down, calm down." Then he asks the girl: "Have you got on the boat? Do you see?"
The girl nodded, "I saw it, they got on the boat, and they left two days ago."
They stopped asking, and Xuan Tianming personally sent the child to the next door to live with Huangquan and the others. When he came back, he said to Feng Yuheng: "A boatman just said that the wind was very strong all day yesterday, and he did not see any weakness until the night. The wind direction was blowing from north to south, and it was not stopped until this morning. This shows that the ship should have delayed some time on the river two days ago, at least half a day shortened. Qingzhou has already arranged that as long as the boat docks on the boat, they will not escape."
At this point, there is no other way except to believe that the Qingzhou side can stop him. Feng Yuheng was a little tired and felt uncomfortable in his heart. So he simply went back to the space to take a shower. When he came out again, Xuan Tianming was fiddling with a few buns and didn't know how to sip.
"What's wrong?" she asked, where did the buns come from?
Xuan Tianming said: "The boatman gave it to him, which is considered supper. It is said that this is still the supper of the Yaxiang. The people in the back only drink porridge that is as thin as water. The poor people at the bottom have nothing, so they can only eat the dry food they brought with them." While he said, he pinched the buns in his hand and broke them apart: "It's as hard as a stone. I think the filling is probably rotten cabbage."
Feng Yuheng shook his head helplessly, "Put it down quickly. I'll go to the space to cook some noodles. I'll ask Huang Quan and the others to come over to serve a few bowls, and then call the brothers up. I'll squeeze the two Yaxiangs, and it's okay to eat bowls of noodles."
Xuan Tianming nodded and watched her enter the space. Then he went out and ordered the secret guards guarding the gate to inform everyone to gather in these two elegant chambers for a while.
Feng Yuheng put a lot of hand-rolled noodles in the space, which were all rolled out by the chefs in the mansion. She saw that she took a lot of them in the space. But these things would not be replenished automatically, and they would be gone after eating them, and they could not cook ten bowls. Fortunately, there were noodle noodles in the space, and those were endless. She cooked a large pot, then served them to the outside one by one, and brought twenty bowls out.
Soon, the secret guards were all divided into two elegant chambers. Facing the noodles that their princess had made from some unknown place, these people didn't ask. Anyway, the princess gave them all good. With this fragrant and steaming noodles, who would still want to eat the pig food given by the boatman?
People were holding the noodles one by one and eating delicious food. Feng Yuheng also brought some meat pies he had taken out before to people. There were not many meat pies, and they were made by the chef before. If you cut everything, you could get half a piece of it for each person.
The little girl who was bought was stunned. She had never eaten such a good thing in her life and did not dare to move her chopsticks for a while.
Seeing that she didn't eat, Huang Quan asked in wonder: "Aren't you hungry?"
Wangchuan was speechless, how could he not be hungry? The child's eyes were so hungry that he was red, so he dared not eat it. So she stuffed the chopsticks into the child's hand and told her: "Eat it, follow our lady, and you will have a life of happiness in the future."
The little girl dared to eat the noodles. When she ate it, she was eating it, even faster than the big guys. Finally, she had a bowl of noodles and ate half a cake. The child's little face also replied with blood. She told Wangchuan: "I haven't eaten for three days. Even if I ate three days ago, I only had one meal a day, but it was still porridge." After saying that, she seemed to remember something, turned her head and asked Feng Yuheng: "Sister... No, it's a lady. Are you going to save that poor little brother?"
Feng Yuheng looked at her: "Why do you ask this?"
The little girl quickly said, "He is so pitiful. Miss, please save him. I can serve him. I will definitely not cause trouble to the lady if I save him."
Feng Yuheng's nose was sore, and he turned his head and didn't say anything. Wangchuan stroked the child's head and told her: "Don't worry, I will definitely save you."
People left quickly after dinner. Wangchuan wanted to stay and help wash the dishes, but Feng Yuheng didn't let her go. She went into the space to clean the dishes, and then took the bedding out of the space.
Maybe she was too tired, and she fell asleep this night. She felt Xuan Tianming stroking her hair one after another. After a few strokes, she fell asleep.
I had no dreams all night, but it was early in the morning that white mist had just appeared in the sky. Xuan Tianming suddenly sat up from the bed and listened vigilantly to the movement outside.
Feng Yuheng was also shocked by him and asked casually: "What's wrong?"
At this time, a sound of a squad leaving came from outside: "Your Highness, Master."
"Come in." Xuan Tianming spoke directly.
Ban Zuo pushed the door open and handed over a small wooden box before the two entered. "I just went to Xiaojie just now, and when I came back, I saw this box in front of the door." Ban Zuo was a little annoyed, and after leaving, this incident happened. If someone assassinated him, he would have lived to the end.
Suddenly, a sense of fear came inexplicably. Feng Yuheng pressed his hand against his heart and stared at the wooden box.
