0146 Waterway

"Open the city gate and lower the drawbridge! Hurry!" Hassan hurriedly instructed the three men to work: "Move quickly, it will be dawn in a few hours!"

"Yes, sir!" The three men agreed in a low voice, and worked together to remove the wooden bars blocking the city gate. Then they pushed the city gate open and lowered the wooden suspension bridge!

The wheels of the carriage suddenly made a grunting noise, "Pap-pap-pap!" With a strong man whipping his whip, the car began to speed up and headed straight out of the city!

At this time, in a dark corner near the city gate, Guan Heng was watching Hassan's carriage leaving alone. The sound of horse hooves suddenly came from not far behind him, and then Shani shouted in a low voice: "Guan Heng,

Following your instructions, I found two horses nearby!"

"Well, it seems that where Hassan and his men are going is not very close. Let's get on our horses and chase them. Just keep as far away as possible!"

The two nodded to each other, jumped on their mounts, and chased Hassan in the direction he left!

I don't know how long it took, but it was already bright. Guan Heng and Shani rode carefully, keeping a distance from the carriage of Hassan's master and servant in front of them.

"So, Hassan had a plan as early as half a year ago to quietly move his treasure house outside the capital of Kawulu?!" Guan Hengzai immediately asked Shani: "This is what you did last night

Overheard outside his room window?"

"Well, I overheard that Hassan seemed to be afraid of someone. He had already emptied the contents of his treasure room in batches. The ones on the carriage now should be the last batch!"

Shani said with a face full of displeasure: "No wonder I visited the warehouse of the City Guards a few times and found that there was almost nothing valuable there. It turned out that it had been moved long ago!"

"Haha, it doesn't matter!" Guan Heng said with a smile: "Let's just follow Hassan, this fat beetle, and find the place where he hides the treasure. When the time comes, hey hey hey."

At this point, Guan Heng and Shani both laughed evilly, and they said in unison: "Take away all the savings of this fat pig and piss him off to death!"

Hassan's carriage first ran along the wide official road, but then gradually turned into a path in the forest, following quietly behind it, feeling that the surrounding scenery was getting more and more desolate.

"Xia Ni, are you familiar with the geography of this area?" Guan Heng asked the female thief next to him quietly: "Do you know where the road ahead leads to?"

"Well, I think we seem to be advancing on the edge of a river leading to the royal capital!" Shani replied: "The water surface of this river is very wide, the flow rate is fast, and there are very few people nearby!"

"So that's it, but I noticed that there is no secret place to hide things around here!" Guan Heng said a little strangely: "I just don't know where Hassan is going to transport his things in the carriage!"

"Huh?" Just after saying this, Guan Heng suddenly twitched his nose and sniffed a few times: "The smell of water is so strong. It seems that we have really arrived at the river bank!"

"Guan Heng!" Shani stretched out her hand on her mount and pointed: "Hassan's carriage has stopped. There seems to be a simple dock in front of it? There is also a boat. Do they want to transport things by water?

Go somewhere?"

"Dismount!" Guan Heng ordered in a low voice: "Let's sneak over and take a look. Maybe we can get some secret information!"

"Uh-huh!" The two of them got off their horses and tied the two horses to the edge of a tree in the bushes, letting them eat the grass on their own.

The sound of the sound came out quickly, so thin that it could not be heard.

Guan Heng and Shani lowered their bodies and quickly sneaked into the grass near the simple dock. Relying on the tall and dense reeds to hide their whereabouts, the two of them had quietly touched the side of the ship. .

At this time, three strong men, urged by Hassan, loaded more than a dozen boxes from the carriage onto the clipper one after another!

"Move faster!" Under the unusually hot sun, Hassan kept wiping his fat face. The sweat that kept overflowing due to nervousness and anxiety had already soaked his clothes. The fat man was still there. Stop shouting: "Hey, be careful of that box you are moving, it is filled with my favorite gold and silverware!"

"These guys are so clumsy!" The fat man couldn't help complaining: "It's okay to do the killing and other things, but the delicate work of carrying valuables is really too hard for them!"

"Bang!" A heavy box was quickly placed on the deck, and one of the strong men said: "Master City Guard, this is the last box!"

"Well, let's get ready to go!" Fatty Hassan nodded with satisfaction, and then walked towards the cabin with his hands behind his back. Just as he was about to duck into the cabin door, another subordinate behind him shouted: "Sir, our ship's waterline It seems to be too deep. If it is like this, it will break the hull of the boat when it encounters a reef area!"

"Idiot, you bother me with such a trivial matter!" Hassan scolded impatiently: "Just throw everything on the boat into the water except the treasure box. Wouldn't it be possible to reduce the weight of the boat?"

"For example, just like it! Bang!" Hassan raised his foot and kicked a small sampan tied to the side of the ship: "This little broken boat is of no use. Throw it to the shore immediately. Please move faster." , you must go to the island before noon, you know?"

"Yes, yes, please obey your orders!" The strong man's subordinates agreed, and immediately reached out to untie the rope that bound the sampan. Hearing a splash, the small sampan was immediately thrown into the water by him!

Under Hassan's repeated urging, the medium-sized speedboat, which was fully loaded with treasure boxes and about 50 to 60 meters long, finally sailed away from the simple dock.

Since the operating system of this ship uses the rare magic stone as the driving force, it can maintain a safe and fast speed, so it can still move forward smoothly and quickly on this rough river!

About three or four minutes after the medium-sized speedboat left, two heads and a small sampan suddenly popped out of the reeds by the river.

"Haha, I didn't expect this damn fat guy Hassan to be so polite!" Guan Heng said to Shani while rowing the oar: "He actually left us a small boat. It's not obvious that he asked us to follow him. ?"

"Haha, that makes sense!" Shani covered her mouth and smiled, and then she said to Guan Heng: "I just vaguely heard Hassan saying that he must go to the island before noon. Could it be that he wanted to take someone with him? Are the treasure chests being transported to a nearby island?”

"Well, it's possible. It seems that there are many inland islands on the tributaries of this river!" Guan Heng analyzed while rowing: "Maybe one of the inland islands is Hassan's secret treasure location. !”
