Chapter 463: Human Traffickers Save Shangguan Yunzhu
"Well, we'll rest here for a day and leave tomorrow. Go back and get ready and go back with us."
"Okay, then I'll go tell them first. You guys have a good rest after eating." Shen Nianran got up and left.
The next morning, Yao Qingnian and others set out to go back. Before leaving, many people in the village came to see Shen Nianran off. Although she had not been in the village for a long time, everyone liked this girl sincerely.
After leaving Youquan Village, the carriage headed back and had to pass through Jiading as usual. Along the way, Yao Qingnian and Shen Youran told their life stories. Only then did Shan Wei and others realize that the person in front of them who looked like their own lady was her twin sister.
After arriving in Jiading, Yao Qingnian looked at Zi Yexiu and said, "Zi Yexiu, since we have already got the ghost flower, let's go our separate ways! Tell me when you will get your share, or I can give it to you now. The flower will not wither within half an hour, so you only need to take it and use it within this time."
"I have to go back to the capital as well, it's on my way."
"We're not going this way. I have somewhere else to go!" Yao Qingnian refused.
Zi Yexiu's eyes turned cold. What happened to her? She has been ignoring him since she came back from the canyon...
"Miss Shen has made up her mind, so let's say goodbye here. Have a safe journey. As for the ghost flower, please bring it back to the capital. I will come to you when I need it."
Yao Qingnian thought he would try to keep her, but she didn't expect him to agree so readily. So she got on the carriage angrily without looking back.
Zi Yexiu gave Xuanfeng a look, and Xuanfeng immediately understood what he meant. As Yao Qingnian said goodbye and left, they planned to find a place in the city and continue their journey after lunch.
When the carriage reached the entrance of an alley, two men suddenly rushed out from inside and almost bumped into Yao Qingnian's carriage. The men cursed: "How can you drive the carriage? You have no eyes!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Wu jumped out of the carriage and started arguing with them: "Hey! You little bastards, it was you who came out of the alley and bumped into our carriage. Not only did you not apologize, but you even dared to complain first."
"Forget it, I don't want to bother with a reckless man like you! Let's go!"
"Stop! Who are you calling a reckless man? Apologize to me!" Wang Wu suddenly got angry and stopped them.
"Get out of the way. If you don't, don't blame us for being rude." the man shouted angrily.
"Come on, come on, I want to see how you are going to be rude." Wang Wuhuan folded his arms and looked at them.
"Brother, I was wrong. Please don't bear grudges. I apologize." The man looked around and had to bow his head for fear of attracting the people.
"Oh, that's right. If you had said this earlier, everything would have been fine." Wang Wu was satisfied and prepared to make way.
Yao Qingnian originally wanted to get off to see what was going on. When he lifted the curtain of the carriage, he saw one of the men carrying an unconscious girl on his shoulders. The girl was none other than Miss Shangguan, who had bought their box for ten times the price two days ago.
"Wait! You guys are robbing a woman in broad daylight?!"
"Girl, you misunderstood. This is my wife. She is drunk and I am just about to send her home!" The man's eyes lit up when he saw the young lady coming out of the carriage, but when he saw Wang Wu's aura that seemed not to be trifled with, he gave up the idea.
"Your wife? You look like this, how can you have such a beautiful wife?" She heard the shopkeeper say last time that this was the daughter of the Jiading garrison commander. Since she had met her, she should treat it as a good deed. The girl was still young, and if something happened to her, her life would be ruined.
"Why, no way?" The man was a little annoyed. He didn't check the almanac before going out today and met them.
Yao Qingnian sneered: "I advise you to let go of this girl. She is not someone you can afford to offend."
"Then you don't have to worry about it. Stop meddling in other people's business and get out of the way." The man began to become impatient.
"I'll take care of this matter today."
"You!" Seeing that he couldn't convince others, the man winked at his accomplice and attacked Wang Wu. The two men started fighting. The other man took the opportunity to slip away, but was stopped by Yao Qingnian.
"Bitch, get out of my way! Be careful or I'll catch you too."
"What if I don't let you do it?!" Yao Qingnian kicked the man, reached out to grab the girl and put her on the carriage, then asked Xuanfeng to catch the man, and he got on the carriage to examine the girl.
The girl was drugged. She took out the antidote from the space and sniffed it under her nose. The girl woke up slowly and struggled to get up. Seeing Yao Qingnian in front of her, she said in surprise: "It's you, why am I here?!"
"I just passed by and saw two men carrying you. They said you were their wife, so I saved you." Yao Qingnian said calmly, "Since you are okay, get off the car."
Shangguan Yunzhu was still a little dizzy. Hearing her say that, she remembered watching a circus performance on the street just now. She thought it was too fake and not fun at all. She was about to leave when two people suddenly came over and said that they had something better to watch and more fun. So she followed them half-believingly. As a result, the two people led her further and further away. When she found something wrong, she wanted to beat them up, but somehow she fainted. She relied on her kung fu skills and looked down on others. She didn't expect to meet bad people. Thinking about it now, she is a little scared...
She jumped off the carriage and saw that Wang Wu and Xuanfeng had tied up the two men. They were the two men from before. "Well, you dare to kidnap even my lady. I will beat you to death."
Shangguan Yunzhu went over and beat them up with fists and kicks, making the two men cry for mercy.
"If there's nothing wrong, we'll leave first." Seeing that she was fine, Yao Qingnian told Wang Wu and the others to retreat.
"Thank you..." Shangguan Yunzhu thanked him a little embarrassedly: "Ahem... I'll treat you guys to a meal! Just consider it as a way of thanking you."
"No need. The silver you gave me last time could have treated me to several meals. I only saved you because you gave me ten times the silver." Yao Qingnian teased her a few words and turned to get on the carriage.
Humph! That's because they played a trick on me! Shangguan Yuzhu felt a little embarrassed when she mentioned this matter. This woman did it on purpose, but considering that she saved me this time, we are even.
At this time, an official came over and asked, "Miss Shangguan, why are you here?"
Watching the carriage leave, she came to her senses and said, "These two people drugged me. Take them back and investigate them carefully."
After hearing about it, the police took the two back. After investigation, they found out that they were human traffickers. If Shangguan Yuzhu hadn't met Yao Qingnian, she might have been sold to who knows where...
