In fact, Hu Xiaotian's worries are superfluous, Huo Shengnan has led the army against the Black Hu people in Northern Xinjiang for many years, and has experienced countless wars, which can be said to be dealing with death all year round, in her opinion, the dead are much safer than the living, to say that the real danger is Hu Xiaotian lying beside him, although this guy is not a bad person, but he is by no means a gentleman, he has not taken advantage of himself along the way, and his pretty face is a little hot when he thinks of this matter.
While Hu Xiaotian was listening to the movement in the cabin next door, he quietly set up the big sword, blocked it between the two, and drew a clear line with Hu Xiaotian again.
Fortunately, Hu Xiaotian was distracted by the situation next door, although he was not worried about the dead people posing a threat to them, but the killer was likely to be nearby, if it was just a vendetta, of course, there was no need to worry, but if it was a robber who sneaked into the cabin next door just now, then it was likely that he would continue to sneak into other cabins to commit crimes, and Hu Xiaotian naturally had to be vigilant.
The two of them had their own thoughts this night, and neither of them was able to sleep well, until dawn, when they heard a frightened scream from next door, Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan sat up at the same time, they knew that the things in the cabin next door had been discovered.
The two of them washed up briefly, and soon heard someone knocking on the door, and when they opened the door, they saw the owner standing outside the door, full of panic, and saw that the two were safe, the owner breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a sad face: "Something is wrong, the two brothers come out." ” Hu Xiaotian asked knowingly: "What's wrong?"
The owner of the ship didn't say anything, but just asked them to come out.
When the two of them came to the deck, they found that there were many people gathered on the deck, whispering in groups of three or five, and the expressions on their faces were full of fear, and two sturdy sailors guarded the cabin where the accident had occurred.
The owner of the ship said to everyone: "There was a murder on the ship last night, for everyone's safety."
Therefore, it is necessary to recount the number of people on the ship to see if there are any omissions, and when they arrive in Wuxing County, they can cooperate with the local government's investigation. ” When there are many people, there are naturally different opinions, some people are willing to cooperate, and some people protest loudly.
Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan were too lazy to participate.
The two came to the bow of the ship to enjoy the scenery, and asked the sailors to know that because of the storm last night, the speed of the ship slowed down a lot, and it was expected to arrive in Wuxing County at noon, but now it seems that it will be dusk today, but the wind and rain have stopped since early in the morning, and the weather is fine.
Hu Xiaotian's eyes wandered around, and he didn't see the handsome man and beautiful woman yesterday on the deck, remembering that they lived next door to him.
It seems that it was the two of them who died.
The owner of the ship tapped the number of passengers, and found that there was one less passenger, it was the red-haired man in rags yesterday.
It can almost be locked that the murderer is that person, Huo Shengnan said: "That murderer should have jumped ship and fled after killing someone." ” Hu Xiaotian said: "It's none of my business.
"They've had enough of their own business to care about such small things.
After the murder, everyone was reluctant to go back to the cabin, and one by one they stayed on the deck to chat, and the owner of the ship frowned.
Two lives were lost on board, and business will definitely be affected in a short period of time.
At dusk.
The ship finally arrived at the port of Giethoorn in Wuxing County, which is a mixed military and civilian port, and there are three piers for civilian use, and the owner of the ship did not have time to dock the ship, so he put down the sampan and let his men go ashore to report, and the passengers on board have protested.
They all know that once the government is alarmed, everyone will be in trouble, and without some investigation, they will not be able to leave smoothly, and the time will inevitably be delayed.
Not to mention that it has been found that there is one person missing from the ship.
The murderers should have fled a long time ago, leaving them as innocent people to do what they wanted The owner of the ship also has no other way, if the ship docks immediately, I am afraid that the passengers on these ships can no longer be controlled, if they are all gone, how to explain to the government so I can only take the method of reporting to the official first and then docking.
For a moment, there was a lot of excitement on the deck, and all the guests on the merchant ship gathered around the owner of the ship to ask for an explanation.
The owner of the ship begged bitterly: "Ladies and gentlemen, there was a murder on the ship, and the most unlucky one was actually me, I didn't mean to embarrass everyone, but as soon as everyone left, I couldn't say it clearly, I just asked you to be more patient, and when the government investigated clearly, I would return everyone to a clean house, and also return me a clean house." ” Someone said angrily: "Why should we be responsible for what happened on your ship?"
"Yes, the murderers are gone, what are you doing with us staying?"
"We are Yongren, what do you do to report to the government of Dakang" The owner of the ship saw that the situation was uncontrollable, and hurriedly said that he would refund everyone's fare, and finally calmed down everyone's emotions.
Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan didn't join in the fun from beginning to end, and it was indeed not easy for the owner of the ship, not only did there be death on the ship, but he also had to pay so much silver.
At this time, there was a humanitarian: "The official army is coming" The people looked towards the dock, and sure enough, a team of about twenty people had arrived, and the chief officer beckoned to the merchant ship, signaling them to dock.
After the ship docked, the gang began to check everyone one by one, not only searching and interrogating them one by one, but also the belongings they were carrying.
Hu Xiaotian and Huo Shengnan took their luggage and horses before they finally went ashore, and a Dakang soldier pointed at them and said, "Come here."
The two walked over, and the soldier pointed to the bag in Hu Xiaotian's hand and said, "Open it and take a look."
Hu Xiaotian didn't want to reveal his identity now, so as not to cause too much unnecessary trouble, anyway, he didn't have any suspicion, put the things on the table, opened the bag, Huo Shengnan also opened the bag, the two of them didn't have many things, except for the box of ashes was some documents, in addition to a lot of gold and silver.
Perhaps attracted by the yellow gold leaves in his bag, the general who led the team walked over, pointed to the gold and asked, "So much gold, what are you doing?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Businessman, bring gold here to go to Kangdu to sell tea. ” The general pointed to the big sword behind Hu Xiaotian and said, "A businessman carries such a big sword."
Hu Xiaotian smiled: "Self-defense" The general looked at Hu Xiaotian suspiciously, and his eyes fell on the wooden box containing the ashes: "What is in this?"
"Ashes" The general pointed to the urn and said, "Open" Hu Xiaotian said: "It's better not to disturb the undead." ” The general glanced at Hu Xiaotian coldly, at this time a soldier came over and said something in his ear, Hu Xiaotian has a keen hearing, the soldier has already found the owner of the ship to basically investigate the situation, the owner of the ship proved that someone has left the merchant ship halfway, and the others should not be too suspicious.
In fact, Hu Xiaotian should be able to get out smoothly when he reveals his identity, but he doesn't want to make too much noise in the local area, it is best to leave quietly, and it is never a good thing to become the target of public attention.
Hearing what the soldier said, Hu Xiaotian thought that the general would let him go, but he didn't expect the general to point to the urn and say, "Open" Hu Xiaotian said: "I've told you that it's not good to disturb the undead." ” The general sneered: "At a glance, you know that you are not a good thing, thief eyebrows, treacherous face, either treacherous or thief" Huo Shengnan almost didn't laugh out loud when he listened, although the general had a bad attitude, the few comments he gave to Hu Xiaotian were very appropriate.
Hu Xiaotian said: "This general is only afraid of looking away, but we are well-behaved businessmen." ” The general suddenly drew his sword from his waist and slashed at the urn on the table.
Hu Xiaotian had already taken the lead in perceiving his intentions from this guy's gaze, and without waiting for the sword in the general's hand to fall on the urn, he hit him in the jaw with a punch, this punch was full of strength, Hu Xiaotian's strength today is not something that this ordinary junior general can bear, and with one punch, the general flew upside down, and the sword in his hand flew out, and he was about to fall into the crowd, causing a panicked scream.
Huo Sheng's male toes flew out lightly, and grasped the sword steadily, so as not to injure the innocent by mistake.
At this moment, the general fell to the ground on all fours, his armor slanted, stirring up a cloud of dust, and blood running wildly from his mouth and nose.
A group of soldiers saw that the situation was not good, and the two of them surrounded the center.
Hu Xiaotian put away the urn unhurriedly, his fingers were pinched into the shape of an orchid finger, with his cold gaze, the whole person added a bit of charm, Hu Xiaotian said coldly: "A group of blind-eyed bastards, they actually offended the princess's heroic spirit, who is in charge of Wuxing County and let him come over to see the miscellaneous family" Hu Xiaotian's expression and movements when eating are deliberately imitating Ji Feihua, and the most domineering one among the eunuchs is Ji Feihua, but Hu Xiaotian's acting skills are really good, The invincible momentum of the high above suddenly shocked a group of soldiers, who looked at each other and couldn't guess where he came from for a while.

At this time, a group of knights in bright armor in the distance rushed towards this side, led by a young general in silver armor with a white horse under his crotch, and he shouted angrily: "Who is making trouble here?"
Hu Xiaotian followed the prestige, and the general was also looking towards this side, and the two were slightly stunned when they made eye contact, the young general turned out to be Zhao Wusheng Hu Xiaotian had dealt with Zhao Wusheng when he went to Dayong to cross the river in Cangmu Qinglong Bay.
At that time, Zhao Wusheng also allocated 200 sailors as a supplement to Wen Boyuan's team, and also made a special trip to Fenghuangtai to set up wine and candies for himself.
Zhao Wusheng is not only the nephew of Admiral Zhao Dengyun, but he is also the internal response of Ji Feihua placed here.
It can be said that the accident between the two big ships in the Yongjiang River should be arranged by him in secret.
Hu Xiaotian originally didn't plan to meet this person in Wuxing County, he wanted to leave Wuxing County without attracting too much attention, but he didn't expect that because of the murder of the merchant ship, it caused a turmoil, compared to Hu Xiaotian's helplessness, Zhao Wusheng was surprised, he didn't expect Hu Xiaotian to appear here.
