Chapter 32 Night Cruise on the Mekong River

The Rolls-Royce pulled us and drove to the right.

Within ten minutes, I saw a dimly lit place.

"Is it there?" Li Yuanyuan asked.

Before I could speak, the driver spoke.

He smiled and said, "Yes, that's the Mekong River. It's one river and three countries. It's very lively, and there are even cruise ships you can take!"

I was a little surprised that the driver actually interrupted.

Seeing that he is quite young, I didn’t expect that he was also from Brother Song.

Ajiang and Ajun became less active than in the casino, and became a little silent, looking outside through the car window.

I also watch, because I feel that outside the window is the world of freedom, and across the Mekong River is China.

The car stopped, the driver got out, and after we all got off, he pointed forward.

"That's the night market over there. Remember, don't go anywhere else. It's not safe! Also, if you take a boat, my son is over there. You can go find him."

"Let's do it, master! You come with us!" Li Yuanyuan said immediately after hearing this, "We can pay, you take us around, we look around and buy some food, and then you take us to you Is it okay for my son to take the boat?"

The driver smiled and said: "Okay! The boss has given instructions that any requirements of the guests must be met! Then I will go with you!"

He glanced at me, turned around and led the way.

I didn't feel anything, because I already knew that everyone around me was Song Ge's people.

Ahu's car was parked not far away. Someone got out of the car, dressed in ordinary people's clothes, and followed us not far or near.

The night market is not crowded, and there are people from all over the world.

This place is no longer filled with drug lords like it was a long time ago, but now it is well-constructed.

Tourists were accompanied by tour guides, and there were people with guns walking around on the streets, but no one paid much attention to them.

While the woman was going to buy food, I looked back.

Ahu was talking to someone he didn't know.

The man was wearing an officer's uniform, not the kind that looked like a military uniform in the park, but a real military uniform.

He's an officer in the army here!

Ahu stuffed him with a thick envelope, he took it and squeezed it with his hands, smiled, shook hands with Ahu, turned around and left.

When Ahu looked over, I turned my head.

After the three women bought food, they announced that they were going to take a night cruise on the Mekong River.

I have watched the movie Mekong several times, and I get excited every time.

Unexpectedly, I would one day be able to see this river with my own eyes and take a cruise on it.

The driver took us to the river, and after chatting with a man in Burmese for a few words, he waved us over.

The cruise ship is quite big, but it is different from the cruise ship I imagined. It is a bit crude.

Going up from the small railing door, there is a cabin at only one end, and the middle to the front bow is empty with a roof.

There are seats against the railings on both sides, and a wooden table in the middle where food and drink can be placed.

The ship's planks were badly worn, and the original blue paint had long since faded into spots.

Li Yuanyuan and the others did not dislike it. Instead, they looked back and forth with interest, and then sat down at the railing.

Ajiang and Ajun put the food and drinks they bought on the table.

The driver and the person he had just spoken to got on the boat, followed by five or six people.

These five or six people were the same ones I saw getting off the Ahu car before.

After they came up, they didn't say anything, and they each found work. The two in front were left to sit in the bow, and the others went to the cabin behind.

"Are they all on the ship?" Wang Huijun suddenly asked.

"Oh, they all are!" the driver replied with a smile, "Driving a boat is not a car, it requires several people, especially when the wind and waves are strong, more people are useful!"

It was obviously a very common sentence, but I actually heard the profound meaning contained in it.

When the wind and waves are strong, having more people is of use!

When the fat sheep or piglets try to escape, it takes more people to catch them!

I lowered my eyes and looked at the table. There were many special snacks here, as well as various fruit drinks, and I bought a lot of them.

I looked up and looked outside again.

The Mekong River is dark at night, and the colors reflected by the lights illuminate the outline in three directions.

The driver was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to explain this place to Zhang Jiao and others.

"Over there is Laos, and over there is China. This is called the Golden Triangle, a Sanjia zone, but the scenery is beautiful! It was previously occupied by drug lords, but after they were eradicated by the coalition, it became a tourist attraction..."

My ears listened, and my eyes couldn't help but look towards China.

That side is the farthest from here and has the brightest lights, but the cruise ship will not approach it.

Ajiang and Ajun also looked over there.

Li Yuanyuan asked: "Ah Jun, how long has it been since you returned to China? Let's see if you can ask your boss for a leave this time and come back with us!"

Ajun laughed loudly, "Thank you sister, we only went back during the Chinese New Year. We can only go back until the Chinese New Year this year!"

Wang Huijun leaned on Ajiang's shoulder and looked over there with him. Their heads were very close and they talked in a low voice.

I couldn't see their expressions, but talking so close and without any smile on their faces, I felt that something might be wrong with Ajiang.

I simply wouldn't look for an escape opportunity in a situation like this, even though there seemed to be countless opportunities for escape.

But I know that Ahu is nearby, and he is surrounded by his people.

He also gave money to an officer.

I closed my eyes.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Zhang Jiao asked, touching my head with her hand.

"A little seasick!" I smiled, "Sister, get out of here as soon as possible!" I took this opportunity to whisper in her ear.

"I'm seasick, just eat some of this!" Li Yuanyuan glanced at me and quietly pushed the fruit towards me.

"Thank you sister!"

The cruise ship sailed very far on the Mekong River and returned to the same place after a circle.

After I helped Zhang Jiao ashore, the driver said, "Ah Meng, you guys wait here while I go get the car over."

"it is good!"

"Is there a bathroom here?" Suddenly, Wang Huijun asked.

"I want to go too!" Li Yuanyuan said immediately, turning to ask Ajun, "Do you know where it is?"

Zhang Jiao also looked at me and seemed to want to go.

I didn't know where there was a bathroom here, so I pulled over a person who got off the boat behind me, from Ahu.

"Brother, do you know where the bathroom is?"

The man raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side, "It's behind the fruit tea seller!"

Knowing the location, we walked towards it together, and I saw that the driver had already driven the car over.

Behind him, several people were scattered not far away.

The bathroom is very simple, with walls made of bricks and partitions made of tree branches, which are still built on the water.

When women go in, men can take care of things outside.

Wang Huijun suddenly shouted from inside: "A Jiang, bring my bag in."

"coming!"

Zhang Jiao and Li Yuanyuan both came out. I got mineral water for them to wash their hands, while Ajun got some tissues and waited.

After a while, Wang Huijun suddenly said loudly from inside: "Mrs. Li, Jiaojiao! Go to the car and wait for us. I've soiled my clothes. We'll go over there later and give me a bottle of water!"

Ajun did not doubt that he was there, and after passing a bottle of water to Ajiang who came out, he and Li Yuanyuan walked outside.

I suddenly had a bad feeling and wanted to go to the bathroom and take a look.

Zhang Jiao grabbed me and said, "Ah Meng!"

I looked at her and she looked at me. I understood and shouted to her: "Sister, he will kill us!"
