Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Chapter 154 There are thieves on board

Half an hour later, Ye Yucheng went out of the room to check what was going on. He saw Dachen leaning crookedly in the corridor outside the door, holding a wine jug. He had a hunch that something was wrong.

He kicked Da Chen awake and told him to go find He Yuan.

He pushed open Master Murong's door and didn't see anyone, so he knew that these people had already slipped away.

Qin Bingrui galloped on, certain that in less than half an incense stick of time, the cunning Ye Yucheng would arrive to investigate. Once outside the city gate, he gave the remaining fifty taels of silver to the soldier who opened the gate, and then gave him an extra five taels, telling him not to open the gate for anyone entering or leaving.

Several soldiers who were supposed to open the city gates nodded carefully in agreement. It was an absolute rule that the city gates could not be opened late at night unless the magistrate gave the order personally.

Also, the money is in place.

Wanjiang Wharf is closest to the North City Gate. If they exit from the South City Gate, they have to go around another circle. Qin Bingrui is very confident that they can get on the boat and leave within this period of time.

Within the time it took for a stick of incense to stick, Ye Yucheng led a large group of people to Wanjiang Wharf, and saw that they had chartered a boat that was already dozens of feet away from the shore.

Yan Xuan couldn't help but sigh: "Miss Qin is really rich. Chartering a boat for three people must cost over a thousand taels!"

Ye Yucheng's face darkened. Was this said to him? Was he trying to tell him that the cost of chasing the White Tiger was a bit high?

"Commander Yan, charter a boat immediately and make sure to follow Miss Qin and her crew's boat to the shore."

Yan Xuan: "..."

The wooden boat Qin Bingrui rented was not too big. Several large carriages could be placed on the deck. There were also six rooms. Although the rooms were not big, they were fully equipped with beds and furniture.

There were not many people on the boat, a total of ten people including the boat driver and the guy who prepared meals.

Although we set off in the middle of the night, the lights on the ship were bright and countless stars were twinkling in the sky, which was quite a unique experience.

Qin Bingrui, Luo Yu and Master Murong each had a room, and all the valuables in the carriage were moved into the house.

The gold and silver jewelry sold for about the same amount, in fact, it was just a box of silver notes and a box of silver.

In the past, they both thought that the money was too much and useless, but now they know that having money really makes things easier.

Once you arrive at Pingshan County, the first stop on the other side, it is best to hire a few bodyguards to ensure safety.

It only takes two days to reach Pingshan County by boat. After entering Pingshan County, go to Wangzhou to meet Baihu, and then head southwest to Qianzhou.

……

Qin Bingrui fell asleep the moment he touched the pillow.

Luo Yu still had her makeup on and was thinking of getting some water to wash her face before getting some rest. But when she opened the door, it was Qin Bingrui standing there.

He pushed the door open and immediately told Luo Yu about the dream he had less than a quarter of an hour after falling asleep. Luo Yu's pupils widened. The people doing odd jobs on the boat were dressed in black?

Then they could only strike first. As for whether or not to ask Master Murong for help, this was what Qin Bingrui was most depressed about. Last time when something happened, they were able to find them in a remote mountain forest. Master Murong already doubted her ability. If she was really found to have supernatural powers, wouldn't that bring her one step closer to death?

Whether Murong is trustworthy or not is not the point; the point is that he is not one of them after all.

Qin Bingrui figured that since those people were coming for them, they had to deal with them. There were only five of them, so why not deal with two in Luo Yu's room first? Qin Bingrui could then confront the other three outside, catching them off guard.

Luo Yu shook his head and said, not to mention that this group of black-clad men have superb martial arts skills, what is more important is that if Master Murong finds out about anything, he will suspect that they have special abilities. It would be better to find a way to get him involved in this game as well.

Qin Bingrui smiled evilly and came up with an idea.

She went out and knocked on Master Murong's room, and rushed in before he answered the door.

I only saw that Master Murong had just taken off his shirt, revealing his solid muscles. You wouldn't have guessed that he had so much to show for himself under his gentle appearance.

When Murong saw Miss Qin break in, he didn't react for a while.

"Hey, bro, you've got a nice body!"

Qin Bingrui wanted to use his hands to pat it to see if it was strong enough, wondering how much worse it was compared to his current self.

"You, come in without waiting for permission?"

"Oh, what are you afraid of? I've seen a lot of men with good figures. Don't worry, if you work harder you can become my brother-in-law. We're all family, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Murong quickly put on his shirt. Although Miss Qin's behavior was vulgar, she was still a woman after all.

"What do you want from me?" He tried to remain calm.

"Want to play cards? I can't sleep anyway, so I have a whole day to sleep in tomorrow."

"Don't go."

"Murong, don't you plan to marry my sister? Look, I've given you the opportunity, but you don't even try hard enough."

"Who said I want to marry your sister?"

"You can't say one thing and mean another. If you don't like her, why do you obey her every command? Besides, you've taken advantage of my sister so much. Don't you want to take responsibility?"

"What evil plans do you two sisters have for me again?"

"No, I was just playing cards. I just noticed something was wrong with the people on the boat, and I'm afraid they might do something bad to me."

Master Murong looked at Qin Bingrui coldly and said contemptuously, "Aren't you worried about yourself?"

"I've served many men and have more experience than my sister. You can't let my sister, a virgin, be bullied by a strange man, right? If you don't go, then it's a deal. When I find a partner for my sister in the future, I will definitely not consider you as the first candidate."

"..."

"I think Prince Ning is not bad either. Although he has too many romantic relationships, playboys are actually quite loyal in love. I just don't know if my sister would like him. Sigh."

Murong's face turned black. He really thought that her sister was a treasure and everyone was fighting for her!

Qin Bingrui raised his foot to go out, and glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw that Master Murong had indeed followed him out.

"Are you planning on marrying my sister again? Brother-in-law."

"I'm just going to meet those people with bad intentions. It has nothing to do with wanting to marry your sister."

"Oh, don't be so stubborn. If you haven't married yet, you can still try. After all, if my sister is still unmarried by the age of 20, she will definitely be forced to marry. If she didn't really plan to stay in the Bai family, I wouldn't want her to get married."

Murong was too lazy to argue with her.

The two of them tiptoed and appeared in Luo Yu's room together.

Luo Yu took out his cards and motioned for them to play first, then said, "I'll go get some water outside and come in to wash my face. Those guys thought I was washing up and getting ready for bed, so they'll definitely break in soon."

When Murong boarded the boat, she also felt that this group of people were very skilled, but the two girls were extremely sure that these people had ulterior motives, and she didn't know why they were so sure?

Just in case, Murong decided to stay in Miss Luo's room with Miss Qin.

After a while, Luo Yu brought a basin of warm water into the room.

She took off the jewelry on her head, washed her face, and then let down her thick black hair. It was a simple action, but when Murong looked up inadvertently, he saw it and his heart skipped a beat.

This feeling is very strange.

Luo Yu turned his head and looked at him and whispered, "I'm going to go out and get some water to wash my face. You guys hide first."

Luo Yu went out with the water and closed the door. Qin Bingrui chuckled: "Brother-in-law, are you moved? My sister is beautiful, smart, and brave. I bet there is no other woman as unique as her."

“It’s quite unique.”

"Don't you like her?"

"Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. There is no such thing as liking it or not."

Qin Bingrui was just waiting for Master Murong to say that he liked her, and then he would have to be willing to work like a slave for his sister Luo Yu.

Who knew that the ancients had different brain circuits?

It doesn't make sense.
