"Since that's the case... there really is no hurry."
An Jing frowned slightly, and he calmly said, "Linjiang City is sealed off by the Beast Tide, and in theory, it urgently needs righteous people like you to transport food and medicine."
"Yet you were attacked by demons. I believe that the appearance of these demons was no coincidence but a deliberate attack."
Tapping the table, An Jing asked in a deep voice, "Escort Head Xu, are you certain that the goods you were transporting contained only food and nothing else?"
"I..."
Xu Tai originally wanted to say 'certain,' because he had personally checked every box of relief food, making sure none was short in weight and none mixed with sand and stones; they were all good rice and medicine.
But being questioned by An Jing like this, he started to doubt, "Could it be that I really transported some extraordinary item unknowingly?"
If not for that, there was no explaining why the demons would attack them!
