Chapter 501

Jiuqu River, the river turns nine times, so it is called Jiuqu.

Mr. Xu's gang hired three big boats to go down the river.

The Jiuqu River is not frozen because of the cold, but is still rolling eastward.

This time to Jiangnan, all the members of the Xu family took this kind of passenger ship for the first time. Fortunately, no one was seasick. All of us are very adapted to the life on this ship.

Even the active Dabao and Erbao are very good.

Occasionally to the deck ventilation, two people are obediently holding their father's hand, the turbulent Jiuqu River, but more dangerous than the smooth flow of Taohua river.

Fubao is also very honest.

Although she is lucky, she is God's daughter, but the problem is that God may also doze off.

This torrent of water, the current is fast, in case of accidentally falling into the water, it is basically to say goodbye to the world.

Maybe there is such a record in historical books: Xu Yuanjin, daughter of Xu Huaiyi, Marquis of Wu Cheng, was granted the title of the head of Defu County in the 14th year of Yongping. She fell into the water by boat and died at the age of one year.

"Dad, Dad, look over there!"

When the boat was sailing on the river, Fubao was watching the scenery on the deck with his father Xu. Suddenly, he reached out and pointed to the river.

When Mr. Xu looked in the direction of Fubao's fingers, he saw a group of people by the river, carrying cloth bags and throwing them into the turbulent Jiuqu River.

"Dad, what are they doing?"

"What's in the bag?"

Although Fubao's eyes are sharp, they don't have the function of perspective.

"I don't know!"

Mr. Xu picked up Fubao and said, "go back to your room. It will be windy later. Don't catch cold!"

"Oh, oh!"

Fubao was still staring at the people by the shore, and then found that the people by the shore also saw them and were shouting at them.

Unfortunately, a little far away, Fubao did not hear what these people were shouting.

Mr. Xu went back to the cabin with Fubao in his arms and handed Fubao to his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xu.

Then Mr. Xu went and called the three sons to one place.

"Dad, what's the matter?"

Xu Laoer is telling Er Bao about his great achievements when he was a child. Suddenly, his father calls him over. Po is not happy.

"Just now, I was outside with Fubao, and I saw someone killing on the shore."

"Those people also saw me and Fubao."

"I'm afraid we'll have some trouble when we stop at the wharf ahead. Let me tell you something. Cheer up and keep your eyes open. If you want to kill me, I'll kill you! "

Fubao didn't know what was in those bags, but master Xu knew.

In the bag are people, living people.

Unfortunately, although he saw it, he did not have the ability to save people.

On this cold day, people are put in cloth bags and thrown into the water. Unless they are rescued immediately, there is basically no way out.

Xu's boat didn't have the ability to turn around at that moment, so he could only watch a few lives buried in the Jiuqu River.

"Don't worry, Dad. I'll take care of this!"

When he heard that something happened, Xu's displeasure in his heart vanished in an instant.

Instead of telling his son about his great achievements when he was a child, let his son see for himself how his father is so powerful. After all, seeing is believing, hearing is believing.

The three passenger ships soon arrived at the wharf ahead and docked at it.

"Dad, shall we get off the boat?"

Knowing that there will be an accident here, boss Xu's idea is that it's better to stay on the ship, so that he only needs to face the enemy in one direction.

"Get off the boat!"

Mr. Xu smiles and explains, "this boat looks safe, but if someone chisels the bottom of it, it's not good!"

It's cold. It's colder in the water.

But never underestimate the talents in this world.

So the group got off the boat and went straight to an inn in a small town on the wharf.

This season, this weather, merchants are still relatively few guests.

Mr. Xu and his party easily wrapped up the whole inn.

Naturally, Mr. Xu told the public what he saw with Fubao on the river, so that everyone would be alert.

……

Night soon fell.

This small town called Guoqiao soon quieted down. Every family settled down behind closed doors. Only dogs barked occasionally in the town.

"Dad, will someone really come?"

Xu Laosan, holding a bow, sat on the roof of the inn with Xu Laozi to blow. On this cold spring night, the cold wind was really blowing, and the cool air went straight to the bone.

"Isn't that coming?"

Mr. Xu raised his hand and pointed to the northwest.

Xu Laosan looked up and saw a fire dragon coming to the Northwest with super fast speed."Dad, how dare these people be so arrogant?"

Xu Laosan is a little surprised. This is not a chaotic place like Longxi mansion. This is Jiangzhou mansion, the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty. The law of the imperial court is strict.

"It's not peaceful under Taiping rule!"

Master Xu sighed.

Is it the end of the century of the Tang Dynasty?

Although Mr. Xu is very dissatisfied with the royal family, he doesn't want the world to be in chaos. After all, once the world is in chaos, the world will fall into war, when ordinary people will suffer.

But now I see a scene, let Mr. Xu feel, Datang seems to have been hard to return.

In a short time, the fire dragon arrived at Guoqiao town.

Then, I heard the sound of gongs.

"Dad, it's the town army of Kunxian County, Jiangzhou Prefecture!"

When Xu Laosan heard the cry from the town, he couldn't help staring at his father.

The town army is the imperial court's military guard to suppress the local people.

Generally, the number of town troops in the county seat is three or five hundred. No matter how much, there will be some people who can't afford it.

But at the moment, the number of Kunxian soldiers in Guoqiao town is definitely over 1000.

If it's a place like Longxi mansion, which is often harassed and plundered by northern barbarians, it can be said that there are more than a thousand soldiers in a county. But in Jiangzhou Prefecture, a county, there are thousands of town troops. This is not right!

"False!"

Mr. Xu squinted at the so-called Kunxian Town army, who was shouting in the town. He calmly replied to Mr. Xu.

"Fake? How is that possible? "

Xu Laosan stares at his father.

Mr. Xu laughed and said, "if I say it's fake, it's fake!"

"Don't forget, your father, I'm Wu Chenghou canonized by the imperial court!"

In a short time, the army of Kun County surrounded the inn where Mr. Xu and his party stayed.

"Surrender, not kill!"

It was Qu Zhen, the inspector of Kun County, who led the team, and he really led the town army of Kun county. As for why there are so many town armies in Kun County, it is because behind the town army is the Qu family in Kun county.
