You have to know that the current curfew actually only restricts people from wandering around the city at night.
There is no restriction on ships, and if you use ships to transport the silver away, you don’t have to worry about it being difficult to take away so much silver.
Originally, Wei Wu was thinking that there was a curfew and Han Yao would not be able to leave Yangzhou so easily, so there was no need to be too anxious.
What's more, after what happened in Huiyan Tower today, the Yangzhou prefect is now anxious to protect his official hat.
At this time, anything wrong would arouse the suspicion of the prefect.
But now, after what Master Zheng said, it is impossible not to be anxious.
As one of the most prosperous cities, Yangzhou has countless shipping transactions on the Grand Canal.
Even if a ship set sail at night, it was nothing new and the Yangzhou prefect would not care too much about it.
The key point is that the Grand Canal connects too many waterways. If Han Yao really lets him set sail and leave, there is no way he can be found.
Thinking of this, Wei Wu looked at Master Zheng again.
"Do you know where Han Yao is going by boat?"
"Yes, he is planning to go to Rencheng. The Dharma King Qingyang, who helped him contact the White Lotus Master, is hiding in Rencheng."
Rencheng? Qingyang Dharma King?
What a coincidence! I was going to Rencheng, and he was also planning to go to Rencheng!
What Master Zheng said not only surprised Wei Wu but also intensified his sense of urgency.
This time he went to Rencheng in order to infiltrate the White Lotus Sect, so he had to stop Han Yao.
Otherwise, once Han Yao meets Dharma King Qingyang, he will be in trouble!
If he fails, he might be recognized as soon as he joins the White Lotus Sect, and then he won’t be able to carry out his subsequent plans against the Kong family.
No matter what, he must not let Han Yao leave and ruin his next plan.
After pondering for a moment, Wei Wu turned his head and looked at Shen Lin.
"Who in our Impermanence Squad is most familiar with the mountain roads, runs the fastest and moves the most nimbly?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Lin immediately picked out a member from the team.
"Master, this is Wei Wu. He's from Huguang (Hunan and Hubei) and grew up in Lushan (Dabie Mountains). He's very familiar with the mountain roads."
Wei Wu was stunned and couldn't help asking.
"His name is Wei Wu?"
Shen Lin shook his head and quickly explained:
"No, Master, Wei Wu is not his name. It is a code name we assigned to each member of the team."
"Wei means guards. From youngest to youngest, they are Wei Yi to Wei Shi. Zhang Hai and I are the captain and vice-captain."
After listening to Shen Lin's explanation, Wei Wu did not continue the topic and turned to look at Wei Wu.
"Wei Wu, take my token and rush back to Yangzhou City to find Zhang Hao. Tell him to send someone to monitor all the ships on the canal."
"Especially the cargo ships. If we don't get back by midnight, have the Yangzhou prefect issue an order that all ships be grounded."
"If a ship attempts to sail, I don't care what method they use, whether it's setting it on fire or ramming it, we must intercept it!"
After saying that, Wei Wu took out a token from his arms and also took out a high-intensity flashlight.
"Use this flashlight to illuminate the road. Here's the switch. You can adjust the brightness and range by doing this. Be careful on the road!"
"Master, don't worry, Wei Wu will definitely complete the task you assigned!"
After taking the token and flashlight from Wei Wu, Wei Wu turned around and disappeared into the mountains without saying a word.
On the side, Master Zheng was stunned when he saw this scene.
He had never seen such a magical thing, and it was not dark yet.
But the thing called a flashlight that Wei Wu took out could actually emit such bright white light.
This completely incomprehensible thing has begun to impact his limited cognition and worldview.
However, just as he was shocked, Wei Wu had completely disappeared, and Wei Wu turned around again.
Looking at Master Zheng who looked confused, Wei Wu was too lazy to explain to him and asked directly:
"You said you could help me, what did you mean?"
Hearing Wei Wu's question, Master Zheng's heart tightened. He knew that the time had come to decide whether he could survive.
This question represents your lifeline.
If the answer is useful to Wei Wu, then it is basically certain that he can survive.
But if your role is not significant, then all the previous promises are bullshit, and you will die in the next second.
Looking at Wei Wu's expressionless face, Master Zheng took a deep breath and said:
"Han Yao and I have an agreement. After confirming your life or death, I will return to the city. He will send someone to take me on board and leave Yangzhou together."
"As long as I return to Yangzhou City and find the person he arranged, you will be able to accurately locate the ship Han Yao is on."
"By then, both Han Yao and the over one million taels of silver on his ship will be yours!"
After listening to Master Zheng's words, Wei Wu was silent for a moment before speaking:
"Your injuries will seriously affect our speed in returning to the city. If we take you with us, I'm afraid Han Yao would have left Yangzhou long ago."
Upon hearing this, Master Zheng's already pale face instantly turned several shades paler.
At this moment, Wei Wu took a closer look at the wound on Master Zheng's leg.
"The bullet did not remain in his body. The side of his leg was torn by the bullet tip, and the fatal vein (aorta) was not injured to bandage him."
While speaking, Wei Wu took out a medical kit from the system space, turned to look at Shen Lin and asked:
"Does anyone in our team know how to do some simple bandaging?"
"Master, we all basically understand this."
"That's fine."
"Leave two people to bandage him. First, disinfect him with this, then stuff the gauze in and wrap it with a bandage!"
After saying that, Wei Wu took out iodine, clotted gauze and bandages from the medicine box, and then took out a dozen bags of instant noodles and handed them to Shen Lin.
"Make sure he's alive. After we return to the city and take care of Han Yao, we'll send someone to help."
After giving instructions to Shen Lin, Wei Wu looked at Master Zheng.
"If nothing unexpected happens, you won't die. Once we get back to the city, we can find a doctor to sew up your wound. As for whether your leg can be saved, that depends on your luck."
Hearing Wei Wu's words, Master Zheng immediately felt relieved. As long as he was not killed on the spot, it would be fine.
As for the horrific injury on his leg, at least there is still hope of survival, right?
Seeing Master Zheng's obviously relaxed expression, Wei Wu spoke again:
"I said I won't kill you, so tell me! Where did you meet Han Yao's men?"
