Regardless of whether everyone likes it or not, General Lei has issued a series of military orders, and all passing ships must queue up for inspection!
Everyone was horrified by the burnt "lessons from the past", and they had no choice but to put away their distracting thoughts and could only queue up quietly.
Strangely enough, ships sailing upstream were allowed to pass without any inspection at all, which reinforced some passengers' suspicions about smuggling.
So some people calmed down.
But some people are not calm anymore!
Because there are indeed many gang members who are engaged in smuggling among these thousands of sailors!
Therefore, attentive people will notice that some ships start to approach the shore pretending to be nonchalant, while some simply stop at the dock and wait and see what happens. The only thing they can do now is wait!
You can't even run away!
Whoever escapes now will become the target of public criticism!
Their current mentality is very complicated. They are afraid of being caught, but they also hope that other smugglers will be caught! Because the government is probably arresting another group of people! They want to see which unlucky guy is caught, maybe
After catching a few typical examples, these soldiers would withdraw their troops.
In this case, they will have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and get through.
Countless ships, large and small, began to form a long queue one after another. Like a dragon waving its tail, it turned several corners!
Some shipowners and passengers who couldn't squeeze in and couldn't get a number in the queue started to get angry!
They were already angry because of the delay in their trip and did not dare to vent their grievances at the sailors who fired arrows at any disagreement. However, they were merciless to other passengers who were also passengers. They yelled and cursed on the spot, no matter how unpleasant it was.
Mixed with dialects from various places, one by one, blushing and thick-necked, finally found an outlet to vent their anger. The more they cursed, the louder and louder they became!
Chaos begins.
Finally, some passengers who couldn't scold each other began to get angry, and some of them began to want to jump on each other's boat and beat each other hard!
Someone is already eager to try it!
The storm is about to break out!
But there seemed to be many gang members in the crowd, including disciples of the Emei Sect, Qingcheng Sect and other famous sects. They quickly stepped forward to stop the situation from escalating further!
They persuaded everyone with sincere words and explained the interests clearly, so that everyone should not cause trouble. Only by queuing up step by step and being courteous to each other can we pass quickly. If there is a quarrel, haste will only lead to waste in haste, causing traffic congestion to be even more delayed.
At first, some boatmen thought they were very arrogant and did not want to listen to these people's truth. However, the Qingcheng sect's master had to show his skills, and the guy immediately changed his mind and said, "What the hero said is true, let's be patient."
Just wait."
Although he can change his face faster than turning the pages of a book, no one makes fun of him, because everyone is a crow standing on a pig, and no one can laugh at anyone!
Feng Jiuxiao and four others got on the boat in four batches.
As expected, Pang Shiwu bought a pile of calligraphy and paintings, covering up the long sword. No one could discover that there were two swords hidden in this pile of scrolls!
As long as everyone is acting alone and without swords, at least two doubts will be eliminated.
In order to shorten the time, the shipowner sent out all the crew on the ship to look for the two passengers. One was naturally the owner of Fuguishan Villa Zheng and his wife, who claimed to be "the richest couple in the world", and the other was the scholar named Zhang.
Two masters and servants.
If the ship cannot set sail in time, the shipowner will be the most anxious.
Every day the trip is delayed, thousands of taels of silver will be lost, which is a bit painful!
In business, if you make less money, you will lose money! If you don’t make money, you will lose money!
As long as the trip is not delayed, he can contact several passengers along the way, and it will not be a problem to collect 1,800 yuan for a round trip in a day!
Nowadays, the sudden temporary addition of checkpoints in front of Wuxia Pass has caught people off guard, and all itinerary plans have been disrupted. So lining up as early as possible and clearing the customs as early as possible is the only idea of the ship owner.
Fortunately, the owner of Fugui Villa and his wife and the official-looking scribe were easy to find, and they returned to the ship after a while.
They didn't want to waste any more time here, so as soon as the man on board explained the reason, the two parties returned to the ship without saying a word.
The inspection was much faster than expected. The Shu soldiers boarded the small boat and almost glanced at it before letting it go. When encountering large ships such as building ships, two Shu soldiers boarded the ship at the same time and searched layer by layer, but the speed was also astonishingly fast.
Now some people realized that things were not as they had originally guessed. It began to become both simple and complicated.
To put it simply, everyone understands that these soldiers are not searching for smuggled items at all, but looking for people!
It's complicated because everyone can't guess who these soldiers are trying to track down. Is it a robber who steals from all directions at night? Is it a ruthless gangster who kills people like crazy? Or is he a heinous rebel?
Those smuggling ships are starting to get ready!
Since we are not investigating smuggling, why are we still afraid of a ball? Let’s go!
Suddenly, some Shu soldiers shouted loudly: "You guys, get out of the queue and stand on the boat!" However, a young man with a sword hanging from his waist and a young girl were summoned by the Shu soldiers to the third boat.
The soldier rowed the boat away without saying anything.
The young man protested loudly: "What are you doing? Why are you detaining me?" The soldier ignored him and just stared at him with the flag in his hand ready to be raised! The young man immediately realized that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait were ready to attack.
The archer had no choice but to endure the bad anger in his chest, held his sweetheart's hand and comforted her and said: "It's no big deal. We didn't commit any crime or commit treason. They can't do anything to us. Don't worry."
I had to obey obediently.
Several more boats were released, and seven or eight young men and women were picked out. They were all sent ashore. There were soldiers on the shore who directly sent the people away. They didn't know where they were sent.
Gradually everyone saw the clues.
The people detained by the Shu soldiers were basically young people, and there were at least two or more people, and the most was six people, and there was a strange phenomenon in each batch of people, that is, there were both men and women in each batch!
Moreover, the men all seem to be young and wearing long swords, and the women all seem to be young and beautiful!
Among the ships that had not yet cleared customs, many young passengers with swords began to use their brains.
They took off their swords and hid them under the bed. Those who had beautiful relatives asked them to put on coarse clothes and make them look ugly, such as eyebrows painted as broomsticks, lipstick spread wider, and hair messy.
Little by little.
This was done simply to avoid attracting the attention of the soldiers.
But when the Shu soldiers boarded their ship, they discovered that they had underestimated the opponent's ability!
Things went counterproductive.
Among the Shu soldiers who can carry out the search mission here, which one is not an elite soldier?
They discovered countless special details from these people at just one glance! For example, although some people did not have a sword, the calluses on the tiger's mouth were obvious. A well-dressed person with fair skin would not have the calluses on his hands to hold a hoe.
Right? This immediately caught their attention. They didn't waste any words, they just asked the person to open his palm, and when they looked at his palm, they immediately asked him to step out of the queue!
Why did you feel guilty? Why did you hide the sword? Based on these two points, the Shu soldiers directly detained the person, without asking where the sword was hidden or whether there were any female relatives.
One is enough!
The Shu soldiers would also give special instructions to the Shu soldiers who were rowing boats. These sword-hideers should be treated "specially" because they were the most prominent suspects!
It wasn't until they were sent ashore that these smart-alecks realized what a mistake they had made!
It was fine at first, but now it’s a big deal!
It’s too late for them to regret!
Especially those who dress up their wives to look like human beings or ghosts. The Shu soldiers directly find a breakthrough in the woman and ask her to remove her makeup. In an instant, her beautiful appearance will be revealed, and they will also directly detain her!
The Shu soldiers didn't care whether the men accompanying them stood up or not. They just sent the woman ashore! If the woman's man dared to show up, he would be imprisoned together. If he didn't show up, it didn't matter. He would show up at night and he would try to rescue her.
Woman, this is called luring a snake out of its hole.
If the man still doesn’t show up at night, it means that the woman’s man is not the man everyone is looking for! The man who draws a sword in anger for the one he loves!
Those passengers who were checked were all shocked by the efficiency of the Shu soldiers!
No one expected that those Shu soldiers took turns to search, and they were like mercury pouring down the ground, all-pervasive, and no one could escape the net!
Since it is passed through a sieve, of course you must use a good sieve!
Of course, only those who are discovered know how naive they are and how vicious the Shu soldiers are!
But the passengers at the back still had a sense of luck. If they had known that they would be put back on the shore just by a look from the master behind Mr. Lei, they would not have done such a smart, unnecessary and stupid thing.
It's a pity that they don't know.
So people keep repeating this stupid thing one after another.
Waiting for them will be special care from Tang Laosi, the prison head of the Shu navy.
Tang Laosi is the best at using torture. Every suspect who passes through his hands has changed from a suspicious suspect to a real murderer with irrefutable evidence!
He can bring out big cases every time he interrogates!
It doesn't matter whether the suspect has committed a crime or not, he will remind the person being interrogated. Under his constant reminder, the suspect will constantly "remember" the cases he has committed in his life.
The commander-in-chief once "reminded" him not to give in to beatings, and Tang Laosi always grinned and said, "I never hit anyone."
Yes, he never hits anyone, he just performs surgery on them.
Many times, the person being interrogated was paralyzed with fear as soon as he saw him opening the tool box.
Those tools are simply too complete.
Various hooks, knives, hammers, and even small saws in all sizes.
The suspect can know how to use these tools without the prison guard opening his mouth.
So they often only say one sentence.
"I admit it."
