Life on the ship is boring. Even though I had just slept all day, not long after I woke up, I actually ran to bed and lay down
??Muttering in my heart, I was also aware of the movement and cloud scenery outside, so I decided to go out and take a look.
¡°Actually, he can know what¡¯s going on without going out. Isn¡¯t this boring? Although he has a beautiful woman as his companion, he can¡¯t get started, so he might as well go out to kill time.
After getting out of bed and carrying her luggage, Yunjing asked her, "Are you going to take a look?"
When going out, Yunjing, who has had the experience of being robbed, is used to carrying the salute with him.
Bai Zhi dexterously turned over and got out of bed, a pair of jade feet accurately landed on her shoes, nodded and said: "I'll go too."
Zhou Mu didn¡¯t move. He was just a simple farmer. He came here just to see his daughter who had been married for many years. No matter what happened outside, he had no intention of being busy or anything like that.
The poor cannot bear the trouble
Yunjing and Bai Zhi came outside one after another and found many people standing on the deck, pointing at the river in the distance.
From people¡¯s conversations and the situation on the river, Yunjing quickly learned what happened.
A body appeared on the river.
" A person is dead. This kind of thing is not a trivial matter at any time. It is reasonable to attract people's attention, especially when there are more than one corpse on the river!
"Look, there's a body over there"
"I saw three bodies in total. They all floated from upstream. I don't know if there are any more."
"Judging from the condition of the body, the time of death should be about a day. How could this happen?"
"What should we do? Should we salvage the body? Or report it to the official?"
People are talking a lot about the corpses appearing on the river. It is a bit unlucky to encounter such things when going out, especially when corpses appear one after another on the river, which may be related to their own safety, and people's expressions are not good-looking.
"How could this happen? Those people obviously drowned," Bai Zhi glanced at the corpses on the river from a distance and frowned.
Yunjing looked at them for a moment and then frowned and said, "They were indeed drowned. There were no injuries on their bodies, but looking at their clothes, they were obviously dressed as sailors. It stands to reason that such people have been making a living on the river all year round and are very good at water. Why did they end up drowned?" The fate of death?"
"This" After hearing what Yun Jing said, Bai Zhi didn't know and didn't know how to answer.
But at this time, Yunjing was thinking a lot. Could such a thing happening upstream be related to the suspicious person Xing Guangning and the others caught on the ship?
Although the person who was caught is dead and there is no follow-up, but such a situation occurs upstream, Yunjing cannot tolerate not connecting it.
At this time, a small boat was put down from the cargo ship, and someone rowed it towards the corpses, obviously to salvage them.
"The person who directed the boat to salvage the corpse was Xing Guangning. He was standing high on the bow of the ship. His face was not very good. I'm afraid he went with Yun Jingxiang and wanted to understand the situation through the corpse.
Three corpses were salvaged, but before the boat could return, another corpse appeared at the meeting.
When this happens again, most people on the cargo ship become anxious. This is by no means a good sign. If we continue to move forward, will we encounter such a fate?
"There are more dead people than the ones we see!" Bai Zhi frowned.
"It's okay to drown one or two, but it becomes a serious problem if they appear one after another.
"Mr. Yun, I don't know if it's convenient for you. Our boss would like to ask you to come over." At this time, a sailor came to Yun Jing and said.
Yunjing guessed that Xing Guangning was looking for him about corpses. After all, he had told him not long ago that corpses could talk. He also wanted to find out what was going on, so he nodded and said, "Please lead the way."
Bai Zhi hesitated a little and followed.
In fact, as soon as Yunjing saw the corpse on the river, he extended his telepathy to check the situation in Jiangmen. Within the range of his senses, there were far more corpses than the few he saw!
In just a moment, Yunjing had already 'seen' ten or twenty corpses. Some were in the distance, which could not be seen with the naked eye on the ship. Some were underwater, but Yunjing did not see the source.
Soon Yunjing met Xing Guangning and the others again.
"Mr. Yun, you have seen all the corpses on the river. This reminds me of the suspicious person who committed suicide immediately after we caught him. Now several corpses have been salvaged on the boat. It is not convenient to bring this boat up. You I said corpses can talk, so I would like to ask you to come with us to see what??As one of the main supply routes to the north, once this supply route is cut off by the enemy, supplies cannot be transported to the north. The soldiers will have no food and clothing. After all, many will freeze to death and starve to death when winter comes. Under the chain reaction, many soldiers will die of cold and starvation. It may lead to a complete collapse! "
"If this is the case, many things can be explained. The enemy has deliberately sneaked into our territory in order to cut off supplies. They don't need to kill people. They can only achieve their goal by sinking the ship. Although our ship is transporting things It is not transported directly to the army, but there is a high probability that these things will flow into the army and become military items. We are just one of them. Some people sneak into the ship with the intention of sabotaging the ship. After being caught, they commit suicide as soon as possible to avoid exposing this sinister purpose." Xing Guangning gritted his teeth and said.
"I'm afraid the truth is almost as good as what we guessed!" Yun Jing said in a deep voice.
Xing Guangning¡¯s nephew is also here. When he thinks that a little person like himself will be involved in the battle between countries, he can¡¯t help but feel numb. He asks anxiously: ¡°Then what should we do next?¡±
"We must not let the enemy's conspiracy succeed!" Xing Guangning said with cold eyes.
Xiaofei struggled and said: "But what can little people like us do?"
After decades of living, Xing Guangning soon came up with his own opinion, saying: "Whether it is for credibility or for feelings of family and country, things must be sent to the north. What we have to do next is to continue to go north while Report this matter to the government. The government has a department dedicated to dealing with enemy countries. They will not sit idly by and do nothing. They must also notify other cargo ships to strengthen their vigilance. Every time a ship's supplies are lost, many soldiers who have fought bloody battles will not be able to survive. It¡¯s winter¡±
"What to do with these corpses?" Bai Zhi asked.
Xing Guangning said: "This is no longer our matter. Let's inform the government and they will organize manpower to salvage it. By the way, even if the ship is sunk, it is impossible for everyone on the ship to die. There must be survivors, Xiao Fei , you ask someone to send a small boat to search ahead. If they encounter survivors, ask them to claim the bodies and understand the situation by the way."
"Okay, I'll go right away," Xiao Fei nodded.
However, Yunjing looked upstream and frowned: "If things are really as we guessed, it would be great if there are still people alive. We can follow the clues and uproot these ambitious guys!"
"Originally, one person was caught, but the other person was too cunning. Seeing that there was no hope of running away, he committed suicide. It was obviously to prevent this kind of thing from being exposed," Xing Guangning said tangledly.
Yunjing felt disgusted with the people who sank the ship. Putting aside his feelings about his family and country, those were all grains grown by farmers with so much hard work. The ship sank at the bottom of the river. So much grain was wasted. So far, So far, we don¡¯t know how many ships transporting food have been sunk. How much food will be needed?
Since he was a child, he has witnessed how difficult it is for his parents to farm. Yunjing wants to tear people into pieces who waste food.
