On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1898 Standing aside and watching

When they saw the officials, hope flashed in the eyes of the men and women in the car.

Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe looked at each other.

The official on horseback glanced at the two carriages and slowed down slightly.

The man next to Yu Fei shouted, "Sir, help!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, the others followed suit.

"Sir, help!"

"We were kidnapped and they wanted to kill us."

The leading official reined in his horse and leaned over to look over.

Yan Ruyu looked at Hu San. Hu San was not at all panicked. He gave Wei Liu a look and quickly walked up to the official.

The leader asked, "What's going on?"

Hu San smiled and bowed, "Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen. We are from the Water God Temple. These people are going to Rongzhou to see the head of the family. You are not complaining about the hard journey, so you start talking nonsense."

The official narrowed his eyes and looked at Hu San.

Hu San took something out of his arms and let them take a look.

The chief nodded.

Hu San put the things away with a smile, then turned around and took out a bag from the car.

"I'm away from home and don't have much to offer you, the officials. Here are some dry food. Please don't be disgusted."

The official took it and hung it on the side of the horse: "In that case, let's go to Rongzhou as soon as possible."

"Yes Yes."

Ignoring the shouts of the people in the carriage, the official rode away.

Yan Ruyu glanced at Huo Changhe, and their eyes met, with a cold look in their eyes.

These people didn't even get off their horses. Everyone on the cart was tied up with ropes, but they ignored it. When Hu San mentioned the "head of the family", their expressions changed immediately.

It was clear that they had a close relationship with this "head of the family" - or rather, the government.

Yan Ruyu was secretly shocked. If this was true, the water in Rongzhou was really too deep.

Huo Changhe was as shocked and angry as Yan Ruyu, perhaps even more so.

If the government was really involved and colluded with these evil people, he would really not be able to tolerate it.

From this perspective, being caught by Hu San is actually a good thing.

If they go alone, they will have to find out some information. If the government is corrupt, it may take a long time to get to the core.

As the officials walked away, the smile on Hu San's face disappeared and he turned around to look at the people in the carriage.

He stretched out his hand, and Wei Liu immediately handed him the whip.

"Pa pa" two whips were lashed on the man who spoke first.

The man cried out in pain, tears streaming down his face.

"I told you not to talk too much! I told you to scream for help, and see if anyone dares to save you! If you do it again, I won't let you off easily."

The man nodded repeatedly to indicate that he didn't dare.

Hu San snorted coldly, his eyes sweeping across the crowd: "Everyone, behave yourself! Since I dare to escort you out, I'm not afraid of others seeing or questioning me!"

"If anyone dares to shout again, don't blame me for being merciless with the whip."

Everyone nodded and dared not say anything more.

Yan Ruyu switched her eyes and looked into Hu San's arms.

What was it that he showed those officials just now? A token of trust?

Upon closer inspection, it was found that what Hu San held in his arms was not a token or badge, but a neatly folded piece of paper.

As for what is written on it, I don’t know.

She thought that she had to get the paper, firstly as evidence, and secondly because there might be clues on it. It would be even easier if it was stamped with the official seal.

Originally, Yan Ruyu wanted to take this opportunity to rest and let a few people go, but now that they were scared by Hu San, no one dared to leave.

I had to give up for now and look for another opportunity.

We continued to move forward. We walked faster in the afternoon. There was nothing in the car, and the road was very bumpy and my bones felt like they were falling apart.

Yan Ruyu still has space to hide, but others can't.

The three women turned pale with pain and looked miserable.

The little girl had a tense face, but she looked relatively better.

It was almost dark when we arrived outside a forest.

If you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of water.

Hu San ordered the team to stop and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Hu San ordered Wei Liu to drive everyone off the car, but he couldn't just sit there doing nothing, so he picked up firewood nearby and boiled some water and some dry food later.

Yan Ruyu took the opportunity to say to Huo Changhe, "I want to let them go."

Huo Changhe nodded: "I have the same idea, but I don't know if they can leave."

"That's easy. I'll put some medicine in the fire and make Hu San and the others unconscious for a while, so that others will think he just dozed off and fell asleep."

"What I mean," Huo Changhe glanced at the people not far away, "will they agree to leave?"

Yan Ruyu was silent for a while. This was indeed an unknown.

She thought for a moment, came up with a plan, and whispered a few words in Huo Changhe's ear.

Huo Changhe raised his eyebrows slightly, a smile in his eyes: "Yu'er is smart, this is a very good plan."

After collecting firewood and lighting a fire, Hu San ordered Wei Liu to distribute dry food to everyone.

Hu San, Wei Liu and several thugs, a total of six people, set up a pot and cooked some soup.

All we were given was an old kettle to boil some water.

Even so, no one dared to express any dissatisfaction.

Yan Ruyu had her back to Hu San and the others, Huo Changhe was sitting beside her, and Wu Liang was sitting opposite her.

Yan Ruyu didn't eat the disgusting rough cake. Instead, she took a piece of her own cake from the space, tore it into small pieces and ate it slowly.

The focus is on paying attention to the actions of Hu San and others.

Huo Changhe flicked his finger and the stone hit the tree trunk with a slight sound.

Hu San and the others immediately noticed: "Who?"

"What sound?"

Hu San stood up and signaled his thugs to follow him and go over to check.

Of course there is nothing.

But just as they were leaving, Wu Liang ejected a few pills, which fell into their fire.

The pills disappeared silently, turning into smoke that mixed with the smoke from the fire, making it impossible to detect.

Hu San and the others came back and sat by the fire again.

After a while, I started to feel a little confused.

Yan Ruyu glanced at everyone and whispered, "Let's run away."

The little girl looked up first: "How to escape?"

"That's right, our hands are tied now, and it's hard for us to eat, how can we escape?" the woman said angrily.

The man who was beaten shrank back, the wounds on his body still burning with pain.

"If I couldn't run away, I would definitely be beaten. I just shouted a few times and was whipped."

The wound on his back was clearly visible, with traces of blood. The others glanced at it and said nothing.

Yu Fei whispered, "I'm willing to give it a try."

Wu Liang also said: "How do we know if we don't try? There are trees here and water over there. The terrain is favorable."

"It's dark and the roads are complicated. This place is much easier than the small temple," Yu Fei continued. "I think it's doable."

He looked at Yan Ruyu with a sharp gaze: "I think it's feasible."

Yan Ruyu glanced at the others: three women and two men, none of whom spoke or expressed their opinions.

Although he didn't say it, what he showed was that he didn't want to run away.

Yan Ruyu looked at Huo Changhe - the prince was right.

It seems that only the agreed plan can be used.

Huo Changhe turned his wrist, and before anyone could see clearly, he had already taken off the rope.
