Chapter 18
The stern of a cargo ship is stacked with cages.

Between the gaps of several cages, a delicate girl appeared out of thin air.If someone saw this scene at this time, they would definitely think that they had seen a ghost during the day.

This girl was naturally Shui Qianxun.She was lying on her side between the cages, with a small rattan box as a pillow behind her head, her eyes were pressed against the cage, her black pupils had shrunk into vertical almond shapes, and she was observing the movement on the river bank through the gap between the rattan cages.

Shui Qianxun didn't dive far at the bottom of the river when she saw the gate in the river in front of her drop off. She turned around and swam over. As expected, the river from where she came from had also closed the gate.She quickly activated the invisibility light suit, climbed onto the cargo ship, and hid in this perfect hiding place.

At this time, the nearly [-]-meter-long river channel has been sealed off.

Many soldiers wearing water jackets went down the river, led the big nets, and swam from both sides of the gate to the middle.People didn't catch the net, but the little fish and shrimp made a lot of money.

The people on both sides of the river have been driven away, and soldiers with crossbows are standing along the river. The ships on this section of the river must stop in place and be inspected.There is a painting boat, the guests sitting in it probably have some background, just shouted on the deck that he wants to go ashore, when a crossbow bolt swished over, piercing the front heart and piercing the back.

Everyone on the river fell silent, whether it was a cargo ship, a painting boat or an oar, they all lined up on the bank silently, waiting for the soldiers to search.

Shui Qianxun knew that Huangfu would not let it go, but he did not expect his reaction to be as fast as thunder.

Through the gap between the cages, she saw Huangfu Yi standing on the river bank in front of him with his hands behind his back. He was dressed in a black python robe, with purple jade around his waist, and his black hair was half-dry, falling on his shoulders like splashed ink, covering half of his face, only the knife was exposed. With a carved nose bridge and a line of dark red thin lips, the lower jaw is slightly raised.

As if sensing something, Huangfuyi suddenly turned his head, his eyes fell in the direction of Shui Qianxun, his eyes were cold and dark, like a bottomless abyss.

Shui Qianxun couldn't help looking away, surprised in his heart, at such a long distance, she was hiding behind the cage, he would never see her, but why did he turn his head to look over?
Is it just because of intuition?
The emperor's sons are indeed more terrifying than the other. Needless to say, the prince's monstrous existence, this Huangfuyi is obviously a pampered prince, but he feels like a beast that grew up in the wilderness. Outrageous.

She stabilized her mind, and moved her eyes to the gap to look again.

Huangfu Yi on the river bank is no longer there.

Shui Qianxun's heart skipped a beat, almost out of an instinctive reaction to danger, she concentrated her energy and instantly activated the invisible light suit.

Just as the figure disappeared, there was already a touch of black clothes on the deck outside the cage.

With a crash, the boatman on the front deck knelt down.

Huangfu Yi rolled his eyes, he had a panoramic view of the situation on board, his gaze stayed on the boxes and cages piled up at the stern, he strode over and kicked them away.

Large and small boxes and cages spread out, and the clothes, makeup, embroidered shoes, hairpin rings and other things contained in the boxes were scattered all over the deck with the lid opened.

No sign of anyone.

Huangfuyi leaned down, and gently touched the dried water stains on the deck with his fingers. In the fragrance of the powder, he seemed to be able to smell the subtle fragrance, slightly sweet as honey.

The traces of water slowly disappeared under his fingertips.

Shui Qianxun rolled aside with the scattered cages, took the opportunity to get into the rattan box that originally contained clothes, her hair was wrapped around the rattan box like a spider's web, and her whole body was tightly attached to the rattan box wall.
