Chapter 146 The Lin family encountered the Su family at the city gate and attempted to detain them!
The sky was just beginning to lighten.
Su Yunhai led his team to reunite with the Gu family.
The two groups of people lined up early at the south gate of the city, waiting to leave.
"Brother Yunhai, I'm entrusting the Gu family to your care. Please wait near the dock for another half a day. We should be able to leave the city in about half a day." Gu Changfeng solemnly entrusted the matter.
Su Yunhai didn't expect the Gu family to act so quickly.
I was worried that two days wouldn't be enough, but they actually finished half a day faster than I expected.
"Don't worry, you should also get out of the city as soon as possible," Su Yunhai assured him.
"Well, I won't see you out of the city. I still have a lot of things to take care of." Gu Changfeng said and left in a hurry.
Gu Canghong watched his father leave in a hurry, and a look of worry couldn't help but appear in his eyes.
Seeing that the city gates were open, Su Yunhai patted Gu Canghong on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, let's get out of the city first."
"Okay, Uncle Su."
Gu Canghong withdrew his gaze and immediately returned to his mother, sister, and brother, waiting patiently.
By the time it was Su Yunhai's turn to leave the city, it was already broad daylight.
Some of the Lin family members at the back of the line spotted the Su family members.
"Patriarch, I think I see the Su family! They're in front of us in line!"
One of the Lin family's guards couldn't help but call out.
Lin Wufeng and the others' expressions changed upon hearing this!
For the Lin family.
The Su family is absolutely the people they want to eliminate the most, without exception!
Even Lin Wanwan gritted her teeth in hatred when she heard the words "Su family"!
"Go now! No matter what method you use, you must stop them!" Lin Wufeng shouted through gritted teeth.
The surrounding people, seeing the cannibalistic appearance of the Lin family, dared not approach them and kept their distance.
Lin Wufeng's injuries were still not fully healed, and he suffered greatly every day while traveling.
Every time he felt pain, his hatred for the Su family grew stronger!
He never expected to run into the Su family so soon.
Of course, we need to stop them immediately.
As for what to do, we'll have to wait until we've got people here first!
Su Yunhai and Shen Yuehua, with their keen senses, were constantly worried that they would not be able to leave the city smoothly.
The two of them kept a close watch on everything around them.
They immediately heard someone mentioning the Su family behind them.
The two quickly looked back to see if it was related to them.
Su Yunhai, riding a large horse, immediately looked towards the rear of the group.
With a sharp gaze, he spotted the Lin family members, who stood out conspicuously in the crowd, about ten meters away.
All of the Lin family's carriages and horses were seized by the government. They didn't have enough money to buy more carriages and horses.
The only way to carry supplies was by manpower pulling carts.
The Lin family's masters and mistresses had no carriages to ride in and had to walk, surrounded and protected by a group of servants and guards.
Su Yunhai spotted the Lin family members at a glance.
Seeing the murderous glares in the Lin family members' eyes, Su Yunhai cursed his bad luck.
He immediately urged the team to leave the city as quickly as possible.
"Cang Hong, we have enemies behind us. Let our men leave the city first. Try to buy us some time," Su Yunhai immediately said to Gu Cang Hong.
Gu Canghong knew about the feud between the Su family and the Lin family.
Gu Canghong and his family of five had heard about what happened in the mountain village.
"I understand, Uncle Su. You should take your men and leave quickly, lest the authorities find a reason to detain you," Gu Canghong urged.
The other members of the Gu family were not familiar with the Su family.
They were originally at the front of the line, but Gu Canghong pulled them to make way for others.
I was very resentful.
The Gu family was, after all, one of the most prominent and wealthy families in Qinzhou.
They never have the habit of giving way to others.
“Listen to me, everyone. Let’s get the Su family out first. There are soldiers in the city to suppress them, so no one will dare to do anything to the Gu family.”
"If we leave the Su family's team behind, and they are detained by the government on some pretext, the area outside the city will be full of stranded refugees. With our Gu family's young masters and ladies who are powerless, can we hold onto so many supplies?"
Seeing this, Qiao Xiaodie quickly stood up to speak for her son.
“Hong’er is right. We’ll help look after the Su family from behind. I think everyone knows how chaotic the world is these days, and you don’t want anything to go wrong at a crucial moment, right?”
The Gu family members, who were originally unwilling, wanted to stand up and make a scene to relieve their frustration, but after hearing the persuasion from the eldest son and his mother, they immediately backed down.
Seeing that his own people were reluctantly making way, Gu Canghong quickly told Su Yunhai to lead the team out of the city first.
The Lin family guards kept pushing forward, trying to keep the Su family members from leaving.
There were just too many refugees ahead of them in line.
No one wanted to be cut in line, and only two or three of the Lin family guards managed to squeeze to the front.
When Gu Canghong saw that the Lin family wanted to cause trouble and obstruct him, he immediately summoned the soldiers guarding the city.
"Officer, there's trouble here! They're trying to force their way out of the city!"
Upon hearing this, the officers and soldiers immediately assumed a high state of alert. Seeing the few people who were about to cause trouble, they drew their swords and walked towards the Lin family's guards.
Seeing this, the Lin family guards, fearing that things would escalate, immediately backed down and retreated into the crowd.
The Peach Blossom Village group was already halfway there, and Su Yunhai breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing this.
But he was not completely at ease.
After the Lin family leaves the city, there is still a high probability that they will run into each other at the dock, and then there will definitely be a big commotion.
Without officers and soldiers to maintain order, the two sides will definitely start fighting!
When Lin Wufeng saw the guards slink back, he knew they had failed to keep the person.
He gritted his teeth in anger.
"Father, don't be angry. It'll be our turn to leave the city soon. We can look for the Su family then. Right now, getting out of the city safely is the most important thing." Lin Wanwan was worried about being caught by the barbarians, so she quickly tried to persuade him.
"Yes, I know what's important," Lin Wufeng replied, suppressing his anger.
Lin Wanwan breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this.
I finally got a second chance at life.
The dream has not yet begun.
She didn't want to lose her life here so soon.
The Su and Gu families successfully left the city, and Su Yunhai immediately led his team to the dock.
An hour later.
The team arrived at the dock smoothly.
Shen Shuli was perched on a large tree when she saw the Su family's group appear and immediately went forward to greet them.
"Father!" Shen Shuli waved and greeted him.
Su Yunhai saw his daughter breathe a slight sigh of relief and waved to her to indicate that he had seen her.
There were soldiers stationed at the dock.
The refugees in the surrounding area dared not get too close.
Su Yunhai led more than 1,500 men slowly toward the dock, where they were immediately stopped by government troops.
Gu Canghong quickly took out the pass issued by the government and handed it to the soldiers.
Only then did the officers and soldiers allow them to pass.
"The boat you booked is over here. Please follow me."
After the officers and soldiers returned the documents to Gu Canghong, they led the way.
Everyone followed closely behind.
The officers and soldiers took the person to the management office, handed him over to the person in charge, and then left.
Upon seeing that the boat had been booked by the Gu family, the dock manager immediately began arranging for personnel and supplies to board the ship.
The large population of Peach Blossom Village quickly loaded all the supplies onto the ship, and then helped load the supplies onto the Gu family's ship.
Su Yunhai, Shen Yuehua, and Shen Shuli sat in their room, drinking tea and discussing the lively dock scene.
