The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 447 The Killer Was Burned to Death
The river suddenly threw a huge wave, which blocked the opponent's arrows and injured the opponent's boat and people.

It's very strange that such a mysterious thing happened suddenly, especially on the river, there was a strange thing to save them.

The boatmen could only think that it was the gods who were saving them.

The other party can only think that the boat was burned, people were injured, and the river water turned into a wall of ice, maybe it was a ghost in the dark.

Each of these people has a life in their hands, and they only think that it is a ghost seeking revenge.

Don't let them do bad things again in the dark night, and don't think that the gods saved those people on purpose.

"Hurry up, put out the fire, and sail away!"

There will also be official patrols in the rivers. Generally, there are no major incidents, and they will not come out to patrol and check.

May stop at every port, something happened to them here, the ship was burned, and it would definitely be seen by people on the shore a little farther away.

In order to save their lives, these people found that half of the boat was unusable while putting out the fire.

Their torches are all filled with oil, and it will be difficult to extinguish the fire once it burns.

We can only use the necessary boats to get all the people up, and give up the burning boat.

This time, the loss of doing the task can only be handed over to the buyer.

"Let's go too!"

The leader ordered his subordinates to sail the ship quickly, and the other party suffered a sudden loss, and might attack again in the dark.

It is possible to continue to look for opportunities to do it tomorrow.

Originally at night, their ships were sailing slowly, but something like this happened, they could only move forward quickly at night, and get rid of the people who were following them.

The leader knocked on the door again.

"little master"

Ye Shiqi came out of the space, opened the door, met the leader's worried eyes, yawned, pretended not to know anything, and asked him what happened?
Seeing the little master like this, the leader was afraid of scaring her, so he didn't tell her what happened and let her continue to sleep.

Ye Shiqi pretended not to know anything, continued to nod and close the door, and went into the space to sleep.

He didn't choose to sleep on the boat, and those people might come in at any time during the day, and he couldn't enter the space to let the other party know the secret.

I don't know if it's because of seasickness, I feel a little sleepy even reading a book, or if she deliberately mixed with space water and honey water, only to have this kind of seasickness, drowsiness and vomiting.

……

After the blacks got on the prepared boat, they lost more than a dozen people from the original dozens.

Those who were burned could not be saved by putting out the fire, they could only be burned to death alive.

The leaders were all right, and they disembarked from the nearest place when it was getting light.

There are people who meet them here, and they find that they came back from a small boat, and there are fewer people.

The people who approached did not speak, when the leader angrily led a group of men into the receiving people's carriages and horses, got on the carriages and horses, and came to one of their residences.

The leader got out of the car and went inside angrily. This is a suburban house with a large area. It looks like a rich man's house.

There is a garden inside. Unlike the house where the rich man lives, there is a training ground and a training place for horse activities.

The leader came to the door of a courtyard and knocked on the door vigorously when the sky was just getting light.

The other party also came out to open the door very quickly. The person who came out to open the door was a well-dressed middle-aged man. He seemed to be awake, and his clothes were neat.

Facing the angry expression of the other party, it is a little hard to guess whether the other party has succeeded or not.

"came back?"

If Ye Shiqi saw this person, he would not know the buyer.

When Old Steward Ye saw this person, he knew that this buyer was a manager in the old emperor's team and a subordinate of the prime minister.

The leader went inside, sat down on a stool and poured tea, regardless of the other party's questions, waited, drank water first, and then talked.

The other party was also very patient, and sat down on the chair, silently waiting for the other party to speak.

"It's an evil door, how big is the loss this time?"

When the other party heard this, he was taken aback, and quickly asked: "What happened? Is the other party's strength too strong?"

The leader attacked them, but the opponent was prepared but did not fight back. They were injured by their own bows and arrows, burned the ship, and returned defeated.

"Sounds like a story!"

The other party felt that what this person said, if it wasn't a story, then there was really a ghost.

And it's a water ghost.

"Can't I lie to you? You can find out by sending someone to inquire. You can also ask my subordinates. My boat on the river is still burning."

This person listened to the other party's words, no matter whether he believed it or not, he asked his subordinates to investigate.

"This time we lost people and ships, you have to make up for it."

Even if the other party asked for the conditions, the manager could only pay the other party back the conditions.

Although he has lost this time, their task is not yet completed.

It is necessary to continue to pursue and track the whereabouts of the group of old housekeeper Ye.

"As long as you compensate us for our loss of men and loss of ship, the mission can continue."

The leader said this, except for this house, go out and make arrangements, the people on their side have lost here, and the work below can only be handed over to another group of people.

Pursuit on land, fast track again in sea.

……

When Ye Shiqi woke up in the morning and appeared in the room, she always felt that the smell on the boat was unpleasant. Could it be a smell like paint.

Their family is a carpenter, and the smell of paint is too familiar to her.

The leader of the boat brought hot water, and then the boatman brought breakfast.

She could only ask the question.

"We all thought the paint on the boat was too old, let's paint the boat."

After meeting the thief last night, they felt that they could no longer be followed by others, and the best way was to confuse each other.

Paint the boat and change a little bit to make his boat feel new and confuse the other party's eyes.

At dawn, the highest part has been painted, and only the part below the water level is still the original paint.

If you are far away, or if you don't pay attention, you can't tell that their ship is the original ship.

It is also beneficial to temporarily confuse the other party.

After all, they still have more than ten days to sail here.

Sailing continuously day and night, but shortening the time a little bit, you may encounter the enemy's pursuit at sea.

It’s not like they haven’t tried this kind of prevention by the leaders. In the past, they have survived the danger. The food will be delivered in two batches. One batch is robbed, and the other batch can still be delivered to the destination.

The best way is to collect grain in cities near the customs, but there cannot be too much grain collected there, and the price of the grain collected is still high.

Ye Shiqi just smiled when she heard the leader's words. This method may confuse the other party for a while.

I didn't see them transporting food onto the ship, and some people came to rob and kill them. It seems that the other party hired a killer, not just for the goods, but for the sake of killing people.

These people are too vicious.

Ye Shiqi didn't feel guilty for setting up an ice wall yesterday and killing or injuring someone, this was the first time she killed someone.

It's not that they killed them by themselves, but they just used the sea water to form an ice wall and let them suffer on their own.
