Chapter 39

Tang Nuan said, "What does Uncle Du suspect?"

Uncle Du nodded and said, "I'm afraid the person who strikes is not easy, but they are not targeting us, so there is no need to worry too much."

"What's wrong with the businessman?" Tang Nuan asked after hearing what Uncle Du said.

Uncle Du seemed to be in deep thought and didn't answer Tang Nuan's question right away, and Tang Nuan didn't ask any more, but asked Lan Le to pour four glasses of water and handed them to Lan Xi and Uncle Du, while Tang Nuan took a drink himself. After getting up, the water was a bit cold because it had been left for a long time, Tang Nuan put it in his mouth to warm it up before slowly swallowing it.

"Actually, I suspect that the businessman is not from Yuanyong." Uncle Du said after drinking the water in one gulp.

"Not from Yuanyong?" Tang Nuan widened her eyes in surprise.

Uncle Du nodded, "Actually, it was just a little strange at the beginning, but after what happened tonight, I was sure about it."

"Uncle Du, have you checked the corpse?" Tang Nuan asked.

Uncle Du hummed, and then said, "That person should have been lurking in Yuanyong for a long time, but some small habits have not changed. The most important thing is that he has calluses on his tiger's mouth." Unless you often use weapons or practice martial arts. , Hukou generally does not have calluses, "and his eating and drinking habits."

Tang Nuan didn't ask why Uncle Du knew so much about the living habits of the barbarians. After all, some things can't be determined just by reading books, unless they have lived together. What is Uncle Du's identity? His grandfather never mentioned it, and even his father never said it. .

In this way, it’s no wonder that Uncle Du suggested letting them go back to their room to rest, because those people’s targets are not theirs, and no one knows if there will be other targets on this boat. So I don't know how to stay in the room quietly.

"Let those people settle down too." The people Tang Nuan mentioned were the ones who secretly protected her.

Uncle Du said, "Don't worry."

Tang Nuan responded, and Uncle Du said, "Miss, rest for a while, I'll watch outside." After speaking, Uncle Du took the initiative to go outside.

"Lan Xi, lie down and rest for a while." Tang Nuan said.

Lan Xi said, "Girl, I'm fine."

Seeing this, Tang Nuan didn't say anything anymore, she found a seat and sat down, she didn't have the mind to rest anymore, now she just wanted to wait for the boat to dock, then disembark safely, and then went to Qinghe Pass.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, Tang Nuan looked over, and saw Uncle Du standing up, opened the door and came in a boatman wearing coarse clothes, the boatman obviously knew Uncle Du, maybe he was secretly protecting Tang One of Nuan's people, their voices were very low, and Tang Nuan couldn't hear what they were talking about.

But soon Uncle Du nodded and ordered, "Prepare some light ones." After speaking, he stuffed a small piece of broken silver into the boatman's hand.

The boatman nodded and held Sui Yin tightly and left.

Uncle Du closed the door and came in, and said in a low voice, "Girl, our people found a seriously injured person and have already contained it."

Tang Nuan looked at Uncle Du, her expression changed and she asked, "Are you from Yuanyong?"

"Yes." Uncle Du said in a deep voice, "Many people on this boat are looking for him."

Tang Nuan asked, "Does Uncle Du think we should save him?"

Uncle Du said, "It's all up to the girl."

Tang Nuan lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Bring people here secretly." It's not safe outside, and if Uncle Du and the others don't want to save this person, they won't tell her about it. If she really says no, Uncle Du They will naturally not violate it, but they will have regrets in their hearts.

Uncle Du said, "Yes."

Lan Xi frowned and said, "Girl, this is inappropriate."

Tang Nuan said, "It's fine."

"I will definitely guarantee the safety of the three of you." Uncle Du assured, and then went out to make arrangements.

If you want to avoid people and send that person over, you need some arrangements.

When Uncle Du left, Lan Xi said, "Girl, safety comes first."

Tang Nuan responded, "Actually, it's better to think about how to bring people out now."

Lan Le frowned and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult to handle. I'm afraid someone from the government will come tomorrow. If we bring an injured person with us, we won't be able to tell if we are discovered."

Tang Nuan said, "You can't just leave it alone. If you don't know it, it's better. If you know it but don't care about it, you can't live with your conscience."

Lan Xi didn't say anything anymore, she got up and tidied up the bed, since that person was injured, he couldn't let people lie on the ground, and he had to be perfect when he was rescued.

Not long after, Uncle Du came back. This time he was not alone, and he was followed by two boatmen. The boatmen carried a wooden box and put the box down when they came in. Lan Le said, "Thank you two big brothers , take this money to buy some wine."

The two boatmen happily took the money and said, "It should be, if you have something to do, just ask."

In fact, one of the boatmen said, "The thief hasn't been caught yet, please be careful."

"Thank you, big brother." Lan Xi said with a smile.

Seeing that there were no other orders, the two boatmen left first. Tang Nuan glanced at the box, and Du Shu nodded incredulously, but he didn't step forward to open the box. Tang Nuan said, "Lan Le, go light some incense. .”

Ordering incense in advance can also cover up the smell of blood for a while.

"Yes." Lan Le hurried to find the incense.

Uncle Du didn't open the box to let him out right away, but the boatman who was the first to report the news came over with food, and then he closed the door, and quickly opened the box with the key, and the strong smell of blood came out. The man was carried out from inside, the man was pale but still awake, he glanced at Uncle Du, his eyes were very sharp, he didn't look like a seriously injured person at all.

Tang Nuan said, "Don't worry, if we want to harm you, we will never save you."

Hearing Tang Nuan's voice, the man was obviously stunned for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to look at Tang Nuan, with a bit of surprise, joy and worry, but before he had time to speak, he passed out directly.

"Huh." Tang Nuan was a little surprised, "Why do I think this person knows me?"

Uncle Du also noticed this, especially when he was hugging the man. After seeing Tang Nuan, the man became less vigilant, and passed out in peace. He said, "Could it be that he has seen the girl?"

Tang Nuan shook her head and said, "I don't know, let's put him on the bed first."

Uncle Du stopped talking, and put the man on the bed. This man was dressed in a brown bunt, and there was a lot of dust and blood on his face. He couldn't see his face at all. You can see that he is tall and slender.

Lan Xi had already fetched water, and Lan Le twisted the handkerchief to help the man wipe his face. After wiping it clean, everyone in the room was stunned. It wasn't that the man was bad-looking, but that he was too good-looking , even with his eyes closed at this time, there is still a kind of fierce beauty, people can't help but expect him to open his eyes.

"I'm afraid he's wearing makeup." Uncle Du said with certainty, "It's impossible for such a conspicuous person to hide for so long."

Tang Nuan nodded, even if they hadn't seen it before, someone would have seen it when they got on the boat, and it was inevitable that they would bring something out when chatting, but no one knew that they wanted to use a special method to cover up their appearance.

"Do you have any impression of the girl?" Uncle Du asked.

Tang Nuan said, "No." This person is even more handsome than the third brother, if you meet her, you will definitely remember her.

Uncle Du stopped asking, and said, "Girl wait outside first, I'll treat his wound."

"Okay." Tang Nuan took Lan Xi and Lan Le to the outside room. Thanks to the many medicines they had prepared, there were also some wound medicines.

Lan Xi said, "Girl, let's have some food first."

"En." Tang Nuan responded, "I thought about how to disembark tomorrow, Lan Le is going to prepare a set of women's clothing." Since he looks like that, even if he is a woman, it shouldn't be awkward.

"Yes." Lan Le said, "I'm afraid they are all a little small."

"Amplify it a little bit, and let him wear a cloak when the time comes, so he won't be eye-catching." Tang Nuan said, "You guys also come to use some things, don't rush it right now."

After tossing and tossing for so long, they were also a little hungry. Lan Xi first filled a bowl of porridge for Tang Nuan, and after leaving two bowls alone, she and Lan Le filled a bowl and ate it.

Uncle Du quickly treated the man's wound, and then carefully cut up the blood-stained clothes and shoes with scissors and wrapped them in dark blue cloth. They will be taken out for processing in a while, and he will come over after he is done. He ate the porridge and steamed buns with white noodles.

"That person has a lot of injuries, some are recent, some are about to heal, and some are from the past two years." Uncle Du said.

Tang Nuan nodded, "Can you confirm your identity?"

"There is nothing on him that can prove his identity." Du Shu said in a deep voice.

Tang Nuan stopped asking, "Forget it, it's not good to know too much."

Uncle Du stopped talking, and soon ran out of things. Lan Xi found out the clothes and handed them a blue dress to Uncle Du. Uncle Du took them in and changed them for the comatose young man. So I called Lan Xi and Lan Le in, Lan Le was carrying rouge powder and other things, Lan Xi dressed up the young man, in fact the young man was good-looking, and his face was pale because of the injury, so he didn't need heavy makeup at all, just a little Makeup can make his brows and eyes softer.

Lan Xi and Lan Le put a lot of clothes into the youth's box just now.

When the boat docked the next day, the young man hadn't woken up yet, but was woken up by Uncle Du. He saw that Tang Nuan was about to speak when he saw Lan Le bring a veiled hat to put on him. Uncle Du He confessed, "Don't make a sound no matter what happens for a while."

The young man nodded and did not speak any more, but he still looked at Tang Nuan. Tang Nuan showed some doubts on his face, but he didn't ask any questions. After all, now is not the time to ask questions. Tang Nuan changed into a dress today. , the material is made of tribute satin, although there are not many jewelry on the body, but each piece is high-quality goods, and there are built-in marks.

Lan Xi also put on makeup on Tang Nuan, making Tang Nuan look a little more domineering.
