"Girls have to protect themselves when they are outside. Next time you meet a bad guy, Yanzhi, you have to do the same."
The little girl nodded repeatedly: "By the way, Yanzhi, are you hungry?"
"Xi Lulu——"
It turned out that it hadn't eaten for a day. Tangtang nodded, took Yanzhi and went to find grass for it to eat.
.........................
The Fu'an Escort Agency arrived in Qulan Town two days later than expected.
"Senior Brother Yu!"
Ms. Xie, who had been waiting eagerly at the town entrance since early morning, excitedly stepped forward to greet her lover when she saw him.
"Lingyun?"
Yu Sheng is much older than Xie Lingyun, probably in his early thirties.
However, men of this age have a mature and steady temperament, so Ms. Xie is quite fascinated by him.
"How did you...you run away from home?"
After a moment's hesitation, Yu Sheng guessed the whole story, and his face suddenly darkened.
"Go back quickly, this is not a peaceful world. Your mediocre skills will only hurt others and yourself!"
I never expected that Yu Sheng would send me back just after they met, and he said such harsh words.
Tears welled up in Xie Lingyun's eyes and she almost turned around and left.
"Captain Yu, what you said is wrong."
"Miss Xie is so infatuated. If you chase her away now, no one will agree."
Seeing that everyone was speaking up for him, Xie Lingyun's expression couldn't help but ease up a lot.
But what she didn't notice was that when the man said "no one will agree", the look he gave Yu Sheng was full of threats.
"Not allowed to leave"
"Let's go together when we come"
"I've put my words here. Do you dare to refuse to give it a try, Chief Yu?"
The remaining six people talked one after another, forcing Yu Sheng to nod.
"Haha, since the escort leader has agreed, let's set off now!"
Let’s go now?
Xie Lingyun looked surprised. They had finally arrived in the town, shouldn't they take the opportunity to take a rest?
"The sooner this escort is delivered, the better. There can't be any delay along the way."
Yu Sheng forced a smile: "If you feel too rushed, you don't have to..."
"I'll go back to the inn to say goodbye, and then we'll be ready to go."
Seeing Xie Lingyun's firm look, Yu Sheng could only remain silent.
When we returned to the inn, the little girl happened to be strolling around with Yanzhi.
"Tangtang, I met my senior brother and I'm ready to go with him."
"Oh! Tangtang is almost ready to leave." said the little girl with a smile.
"This girl"
An escort behind Yu Sheng suddenly said, "Where are you going? If it's on your way, why not come with us?"
.........................
I just said that there can't be any delay, and now I have to invite a little girl who will obviously delay the trip.
Xie Lingyun looked at the man in surprise, and Yu Sheng also said sternly: "Fang Rong, what are you talking about?"
Fang Rong clasped his fists towards the two men, smiled at the little girl, and then said, "Miss Tangtang, you are traveling alone. What if you accidentally run into a robber? If it's on your way, I think it's better for you to travel together."
Hearing this, Xie Lingyun's heart suddenly moved.
Tangtang had already encountered a robber once. If she hadn't arrived in time, she didn't know what would have happened to her.
Even if it's impossible to take care of her for the rest of her life, it's good to help her within your ability!
"Brother, Tangtang is traveling around. If it doesn't delay things too much, let's give her a ride."
"Haha, it won't delay anything. We just happen to have a carriage." Before Yu Sheng could speak, Fang Rong rushed to say, "Although there are things in the carriage, Miss Tangtang is small and can definitely sit in it."
"..."
Yu Sheng struggled in his heart, but after weighing the pros and cons, he gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Then, let's go together?" Yu Sheng asked the person concerned for his opinion.
"kindness!"
Just as Fang Rong said, there was a huge box in the carriage, covered with cloth.
It takes up most of the space in the car, and it would be very uncomfortable for an adult to squeeze in. It would be just right to replace it with Tangtang.
"Brother, is the cargo in the box the one we are transporting this time?"
Xie Lingyun glanced into the carriage and couldn't help but ask.
"right"
Yu Sheng obviously didn't want to say more. He lowered the curtain of the carriage again and drove on his way.
......................
I finally met my senior brother, which should have been a happy thing.
But not only did he speak coldly from the start, the atmosphere of the entire team was also wrong.
It is true that Xie Lingyun is a newcomer, but she is also an adult with normal emotional intelligence.
After spending a night together, she was already feeling heavy-hearted due to the dull and depressing atmosphere in the team.
"Senior Brother"
Compared to others, Xie Lingyun definitely trusts his senior brother more.
Riding Yanzhi and Yu Sheng side by side, the girl said softly, "I didn't have time to ask yesterday. I remember that there were nine of you on this trip. Where are the remaining two escorts?"
"Leaving the team"
Leave, leave the team?
"why?"
"They didn't want to be escorts anymore, so they left the team."
This reason is ridiculous, and I'm afraid only children would believe it.
Xie Lingyun couldn't help but frowned: "Brother, you have become very strange this time we met."
"..."
Seeing Yu Sheng remained silent, Xie Lingyun raised his eyebrows and was about to get angry.
"Captain Yu, I think it's about time. It should be your turn today."
Fang Rong came over with a weird smile on his face: "Or should you postpone this round and let Miss Xie and Miss Tangtang go first?"
Chapter 018 Money Tree
What's this round and that round? What are you guys talking about?
Seeing Xie Lingyun glaring at him with unbearable anger, Yu Sheng suddenly smiled.
"It's just watering, Fang Rong, you have to act mysterious and tease my junior sister."
"What kind of water should be poured?" Xie Lingyun asked with a frown.
"Yes." Yu Sheng pointed to the carriage and said, "Of course it's the money tree inside."
Money tree... I've never heard of it. Maybe it's some kind of rare treasure?
But if it is a tree, why does it hide in the carriage all day and not come out to see the light?
When Xie Lingyun asked this, it was Fang Rong who answered her.
"These are all requirements of the employer. The same is true for everyone in the team who takes turns to water it once a day."
Fang Rong asked Yu Sheng again in annoyance, "It's time to water the trees. Do you want to do it yourself, Escort Leader, or let them do it?"
"I just said it, it's just watering."
Yu Sheng said coldly: "Since it's my turn, I'll go!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the tense atmosphere in the entire escort team suddenly relaxed.
"call"
Yu Sheng shouted and stopped the carriage. He let Tangtang get off to stretch her legs, then he got into the carriage carrying a kettle.
Xie Lingyun raised his eyes and looked inside the carriage, only to see Fang Rong lower the curtains on both sides again.
As her vision was blocked, Ms. Xie's expression suddenly turned very unsightly.
"Not in a hurry"
Fang Rong said calmly, "You'll know what the money tree looks like when Miss Xie goes to water it next time."
Humph, what's so strange!
Xie Lingyun had met Fang Rong several times before, but had never found him as annoying as he did now.
wow-
It sounded like the branches and leaves stretching out, accompanied by the crisp sound of metal collision.
This voice was full of strange magic. Xie Lingyun inexplicably felt his mouth dry and his heart pounding after hearing it.
Fang Rong beside her was even more unbearable. He stared at the car for a moment, and moved as if he was about to rush into the car.
"It's very crowded in there, and two grown men can't fit in."
At this time, Yu Sheng walked out of the car. He glanced at Fang Rong who was ready to make a move, and actually sneered and made a "please" gesture.
Fang Rong shuddered all over and retreated to the end of the team with a wry smile.
..................
"There are still about three days of travel left, right?"
"Yes, if you sleep less than half a night every night, you should be able to arrive on the third morning."
"Damn it, this escort mission is really going to cost someone's life. I'm going to get drunk when I get back!"
Most of them are complaints, occasionally mixed with some vulgar words.
But compared to the deathly silence when he rested last night, Xie Lingyun felt that this was pretty good.
“Everyone suddenly felt very energetic.”
Tangtang felt similarly to Xie Lingyun. Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, the little girl also smiled.
"Tangtang"
Xie Lingyun looked around and suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "You have been in the carriage the whole time. Have you lifted the cloth to see what it is?"
Children are always very curious. Xie Lingyun felt that Tangtang must have secretly opened it and taken a look.
"No," Tangtang shook her head.
"Really? I don't believe it."
Seeing Xie Lingyun's suspicious look, the little girl couldn't help but puff up her cheeks.
"Tangtang is not lying. I really haven't opened it, but Tangtang knows what's inside."
How do you know what's inside without lifting the cloth?
The little girl was obviously lying. Xie Lingyun smiled and did not expose her. Instead, he asked quietly, "What is it?"
