Chapter 363 Warning
"Look at the faces of these young men. When they are close to Baidi City, the fox tails of each of them can't be hidden."
"Ha, who doesn't know what these young men are thinking? If I were sisters of the Bai family, I would definitely not fall in love with such a hypocritical man."
"Hahaha, then you have to do it too."
Ping An's words made the male servants laugh at each other. During the itinerary, Madam Qiao always belittled the young masters, and the group of servants had already accumulated a lot of resentment.
Now Madam Qiao is guiding the way in front of the team, and everyone has room to vent their feelings, so they are having a lot of fun talking.
A few horse neighs sounded through the sky, and the carriage in front swayed and suddenly stopped urgently.
The convoy that followed the car stopped urgently, and the male servant who was following the car almost hit the car board in front of him.
"What's going on! This is not a mountain road, why are you still walking and stopping?"
Changsheng shouted in dissatisfaction, but unexpectedly, there was a sharp sound ahead. A row of bamboo tubes as thick as arms stood horizontally on both sides of the convoy, shooting countless sharp arrows, covering the convoy like pouring rain.
The hissing sound of penetrating the flesh and blood was endless. The guards and servants gathered on the outside of the Qiao family carriage fell down one after another, crying and roaring everywhere.
Finally, someone in the convoy reacted and shouted loudly:
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Liu Ruohuan, who was mixed with the servants, had quick eyes and hands, quickly pulled Changsheng and Ping'an around her to the bottom of the carriage, and several people leaned on the carriage as cover.
After the sound of arrows, a servant fell to the ground and died after several arrows. The two realized that they had escaped with the help of Liu Ruohuan. Ping An and Changsheng both cast a grateful look at Liu Ruohuan.
"You guys hide here, I'll go ahead and see the situation."
Changsheng subconsciously grabbed Liu Ruohuan's arm and said worriedly: "No, gobang, there is a danger ahead, there is a lady here... there will be no problem."
Liu Ruohuan shook her head, then politely declined their proposal, and pulled out of the bottom of the car.
He looked up at the surroundings and saw that the Qiao family convoy, which was still quite large just now, has become a mess, with goods and corpses all over the ground.
Fortunately, although the sharp arrows just now were so loud, the casualties seemed much smaller than Liu Ruohuan expected, and were more scared servants and injured guards.
At this time, at the center of the team, Qiao Jingrou was surrounded by the Qiao family guards, and there were also Madam Qiao and Ji Kan Zixuan next to her.
The sharp-eyed guard looked at Liu Ruohuan who was walking slowly, raised the knife in his hand and signaled him not to get close, but in the next second, Qiao Jingrou spoke.
"Let him in."
Although the guards were a little wary of this man of unknown origin, their master had already spoken, and they had to give up a way and let Liu Ruohuan walk in.
"Miss, he..."
As soon as Madam Qiao said that, she realized that Liu Ruohuan's true identity might not be as simple as she thought. An ordinary servant, who has been taken care of by the lady repeatedly, must be strange.
"What happened?"
As soon as Liu Ruohuan came in, she was familiar with the matter and asked about the whole story.
Madam Qiao glanced at the calm Qiao Jingrou and told Liu Ruohuan the whole story.
"The convoy was walking well, but suddenly the road ahead was blocked. Several outrageous deep pits appeared on the official road, and even the carriages and horses could not pass... Later, I tried to ask someone to take a detour, but I didn't expect someone to step on some mechanism. Suddenly, something like bamboo tubes shot sharp arrows in the woods on both sides."
Madam Qiao originally wanted to refine what she said just now, but was interrupted by the news from the woods.
Several female guards held up the bamboo tubes in the Xiaojian and said to the place: "Miss, I found these objects. It was not people who attacked us just now, but simple mechanisms installed on trees with machine springs. These bamboo objects are very common in the Bashu area and should be crops of nearby residents."
After seeing this, Madam Qiao was furious and scolded angrily: "I really have the courage to take action against the Qiao family... How did the Bai family manage Baidi City?"
In the distance, a group of young men from aristocratic families who were separated from escorts and protected also developed a deep disgust with the land of Bashu.
"I have heard that the people living in Bashu are all barbarians, but I didn't expect that the mountain people around me were so uncivilized!"
"That's right! Then, will we suffer when we get married?"
"We go home and ask my mother to make a memorial and levy more taxes from these barbarians in the future!"
"Yes! I also want to go home and explain the whole story to my mother and deduct the supplies I have given to Bashu!"
“…”
Liu Ruohuan was thinking in contemplation, and he suddenly felt that there seemed to be some strange places in the enemy attack of the Qiao family convoy.
Just when everyone was hostile to this place, Qiao Jingrou, who was regarded as the backbone, suddenly asked the inconspicuous servant, "What do you think?"
"I think this is something wrong."
Liu Ruohuan spoke out and paused everyone's discussion, turned around and asked Mama Qiao again, "Have you just counted the damage to the convoy?"
"Three servants died, two guards were seriously injured, and one young man was unfortunately crushed by a wheel and broke his arm."
When Madam Qiao spoke for the last part, her voice became very quiet, and she seemed to be very guilty of it.
"It's okay, Madam Qiao's team leader has been very dedicated, and Brother Li is just because he was frightened for a moment..."
Liu Ruohuan interrupted Ning Zhiyuan's flattery and blurted out, "I probably understand the problem."
Ning Zhiyuan snorted lightly, his expression and attitude were full of impatientness.
For some reason, since he saw this servant for the first time, he felt disgusted and could not help but sing a contradictory tune to him in everything.
"Problem? What are the problems with the convoy being attacked? Could it be that these agencies were not made by those foolish people in Bashu?"
Liu Ruohuan glanced at Ning Zhiyuan, and an invisible murderous aura seemed to be slightly overflowing in her pupils, which made Ning Zhiyuan shocked and closed her mouth obediently.
"Although the agency is indeed set up by residents of nearby Bashu, I think their starting point should not be entirely malicious, but more of a warning and admonition."
"Warning? Admonition?"
"Yes, if it was really an attack on the convoy, I have a doubt. Why are there no traces of living people in the surrounding forests? After all, it is impossible to expect the other party to be as easy as hunting hares and elks as they are. Just put a wild beast clip and ignore them."
Liu Ruohuan's questions pointed out the minds of many people. After everyone thought about the key, they all smelled a hint of unusualness.
