Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 7571 Encounter
Outside Linze City.

On the river outside the fishing village.

Medium-sized fishing boats are already the largest fishing boats in small fishing villages.

There is no comparison with the new warships under Luo Xingchen's command.

It can be said that a single touch of a new type of warship can easily smash a hundred or eighty fishing boats into a pile of wooden debris.

The power of fishing boats is neither sails nor the latest steam engine, but human paddling.

Axi and Ayuan are in charge of paddling. The two sisters have a lot of strength. If they don't look at their faces, but only look at their backs, they have the temperament of a fisherman girl.

"My lord, I feel that the murderer may not be alone." Mo Anbai said slowly while leaning on the bow of the boat.

"From the point of view of the method, how many people will do it together?"

"About three or four people, the distinction is not very clear, some of the techniques are different, but it may be performed by the same person."

"Are you sure there is no Grandmaster?"

"No, young master, if there were, I wouldn't dare to go to my slave's house."

Mo An Bai said.

"I look at those people, they are sallow and thin, and they look like they haven't eaten for a long time. No matter what the reason, the murderer killed so many ordinary people, it is simply insane."

There was coldness in Luo Xingchen's eyes.

No one wants to see such a thing happen.

But since it has happened, he wants to seek justice for the people, which is the most basic conscience of a normal human being.

"My lord, it shouldn't be far from the place where the corpse was thrown." Mo An said in vain.

"How did you know that?" Luo Xingchen asked.

"Those corpses go straight down the river. If the distance is far, then the fishing villages in front have already fished out the corpses, so it is unlikely that they will continue to float downstream." Mo Anbai said.

"What if we let them float downstream?" Luo Xingchen said.

"The government will arrest all the villagers who have seen the floating corpse along the way..." Mo Anbai pursed his lips.

"Does the government still dare to kill all the villagers? I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of fishermen along the way." Luo Xingchen narrowed his eyes slightly.

No matter how insane the government is, how dare they kill tens of thousands of fishermen.

"It is true that the government will not kill fishermen, but they will extort money and ask fishermen to pay for a coupon called an indulgence coupon."

"Those fishermen who are relatively well-to-do, more than half of them will be confiscated by this indulgence ticket, and some especially poor fishermen will even be sold by the whole family." Mo Anbai sighed.

"The tyrannical government is fiercer than a tiger. It seems that the government in Linze City has reached the point where it can't be done without rectification. Miss Bai, I will write a letter and send it to the capital quickly, so that the emperor will send someone to Linze City to deal with the affairs here."

Luo Xingchen said.

"Okay, my lord has a solution." The corners of Mo Anbai's lips curled up.

"Sister, there is a big ship ahead!" Suddenly, Ah Yuan shouted loudly.

In fact, she didn't need to say it, both Mo Anbai and Luo Xingchen saw the big boat ahead.

The ship was very tall, with many patterns carved on the body, and the cabin was like a three-story pavilion, with lanterns hanging from the eaves. It looked like a cruise ship of a wealthy family.

"The murderer has something to do with that ship!" Mo Anbai suddenly tightened his eyes.

"Are we getting closer?" Luo Xingchen asked.

He didn't ask why Mo Anbai concluded that the murderer was related to that ship.

That's obvious.

Hundreds of corpses floated down from the upper reaches. If they floated down from above, would the cruise ship not be able to see them?
Will you turn a blind eye when you see it?
Neither is possible.

The greatest possibility is that those corpses were killed by the people on board!
"Don't get close to the past, it's too dangerous."

Knowing that it was such a big ship, Mo Anbai changed his mind.

"Axi, Ayuan, turn the bow of the boat and let the boat go around the big boat and continue to go upstream." Mo Anbai said.

"it is good!"

A Yuan and A Xi worked hard together, changing the direction of the boat a little, just passing by the side of the big ship.

big ship.

Standing on the side is a young man wearing a brocade robe with a lazy expression and holding a folding fan in his hand.

Beside him, a charming woman peeled off the skin of a grape with her fingers, and stuffed the grape flesh into the young man's mouth.

Behind the young man stood two swordsmen in their thirties.

Their faces are as sharp as marble carvings, their finger joints are also very prominent, and their temples are high and protruding, which shows that their skills are quite deep.

"Master Long, look at that person on that boat..." The woman smiled coquettishly and pointed to the side with her hand.

"What's wrong with that man?" Young Master Long raised his eyebrows, enjoying the delicious juice of grapes from the Western Regions.

"That man looks like a dog." Chuxue laughed and trembled.

"Well, yes, it really looks like a dog!"

Young Master Long took a careful look and saw the man standing at the bow of the boat with his back bent and pockmarked side face, he nodded and said.

"No, that ship came from downstream."

Young Master Long's eyes suddenly narrowed, and with a movement of his palm, he closed the folding fan in his palm and hit the railing along the boat with a snap.

"Hao Yangqing, go and have a look and ask them what they saw!" Young Master Long said coldly.

"Yes, sir."

A swordsman behind him responded.

Soon, he got off the side of the boat, came to the edge, and stepped into a small boat tied to the side of the big ship.

Hao Yangqing picked up the wooden paddle, and as soon as he exerted force, the boat flew forward like an arrow off the string.

Seeing the wooden boat in front of him getting closer and closer.

Hao Yangqing stomped heavily on the boat. With the recoil force of the hull bouncing upwards, he fully exercised his lightness kung fu, and his whole figure was like a big bird, spreading its wings and leaping up.

Just landed on the deck of the fishing boat ahead.

He glanced at the man standing hunched over on the deck, and said coldly, "Are you fishermen from the lower reaches?"

While asking questions, he looked at the cabin with his head.

He saw three women in the cabin, all of them had yellow and thin faces, and there were spots of pockmarks on their faces, as if they were sick.

"Ahem, yes, master, we are all fishermen, and there are my three younger sisters, they had a strange disease a few days ago, I thought, row a boat, and go to the city to see a doctor for our younger sister." Pockmarked face The man coughed twice.

"Did you see anything special along the way?" Hao Yangqing asked.

"I've seen it..." The pockmarked man coughed, "Ahem!"

"What?" Hao Yangqing raised his voice.

"My lord, that boat of yours is beautiful." said the pock-marked man.

"Okay, let's go now."

When asked here, Hao Yangqing felt that enough was enough, he waved his hand, and then, Hao Yangqing covered his mouth and nose with his cuff in disgust.

Then, he turned around and left, still in a hurry.

When he returned to the big boat, the fishing boat ahead had disappeared from sight.
