Afterwards, the officers and soldiers recorded the names of the two people. He murmured while writing:
"The surname is Li, what a good surname... Okay, just follow me and we'll go back together later."
"good."
After agreeing, Li Yunxiao was followed behind him by Jiang Chen's eyes.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but since Li Yunxiao joined the team, many people have shown hostility towards him and the surrender.
This made him couldn't help but notice that there must be something wrong.
Jiangchen suddenly asked from the side: "Are you curious?"
Li Yunxiao said calmly: "I'm not curious."
Jiang Chen suddenly stretched out his palm as if to grab something, and said with a painful expression on his face: "Aren't you curious why there is a Thief Saint here?"
"Why was this county magistrate repeatedly ambushed, had his property stolen, or was he killed in his bed..."
"Is this the thief's loss of humanity, or... Hey, hey, can you listen to me?"
Seeing that Li Yunxiao was not interested at all, Jiang Chen chased after him.
Li Yunxiao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Can you change your habit of being suspicious of other people's psychology?"
"I won't change!"
Li Yunxiao shook his head: "Okay, whatever you want, I'm not curious anyway."
Jiangchen smiled calmly and said in a lazy voice: "Well~~ You are not curious, but there will always be times when you are curious, let's go and see~~"
....
It wasn't until nightfall that the officers and soldiers returned with Li Yunxiao and Jiang Chen.
What's strange about these hours of searching is that only Li Yunxiao and Jiang Chen joined in, and no one else was there.
Before the officers and soldiers left, they posted another announcement.
[Wanted criminal——Holy Thief]
Below is a portrait of the Thief Saint and a reward.
Li Yunxiao felt weird looking at this portrait. The painting was too rough. It looked like a popular face, and it was covered. Who could recognize it?
After arriving at the county magistrate's residence, Li Yunxiao found that there were already more than a dozen people waiting here.
Among them, the six monks are more eye-catching.
When they saw Li Yunxiao and Jiang Chen coming over, they all focused on Jiang Chen, and the six monks were no exception.
Li Yunxiao rubbed his eyebrows. Sometimes, he could tell what kind of person the other person was at a glance. This feeling made him very boring.
Just like now, it's obvious that these dozen people just want to mess around and see if they can get gold, and they don't have any chivalrous style.
"Okay, today is the third day. The Thief Saint said he will definitely come tonight. I will leave this place to you. We will bring food to all the knights and elders later."
This place is only one room away from the magistrate's residence, so it will be very fast to get there.
Li Yunxiao sat on the ground, and the minister used Li Yunxiao's back to lean on. Then he took out a little gunpowder from his waist pocket and studied it.
Among the dozen or so people around, there was a strong man who kept looking at Jiang Chen and smirking. When Jiang Chen looked over, he showed off his muscles to show off how strong he was.
About half an hour had passed, and except for Li Yunxiao and the six monks, everyone else was chatting in groups.
At this moment, Li Yunxiao's ears twitched slightly and he glanced at the house unconsciously, his eyes slowly looking into the distance along the roof.
At this time, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting Li Yunxiao's attention.
I saw a dozen officers and soldiers walking in carrying things.
"Fellow knights, master, here comes the food. There is wine, meat, and desserts and vegetarian dishes. Come, come, come. Only when you are full can you catch the thief."
A group of people surrounded them, but the six monks, Li Yunxiao, and Jiang Chen remained unmoved.
The officers and soldiers came to the monk with a box of food and asked: "Master, how many of you..."
"Huh?!" The monk in the center snorted: "Don't make any noise! Listen to the noise!"
The leading officer and soldier was the patrolman Lin Yan, who could be regarded as an old man who had served as county magistrate for three generations.
Hearing this, he could only nod his head, and then walked up to Li Yunxiao.
Before he could speak, Li Yunxiao responded with a smile and said, "Thank you, sorry for bothering you."
Patrolman Lin Yan chuckled: "You're welcome, knight. It depends on how you two behave. If you really meet that thief saint later..."
Speaking of this, Lin Yan whispered: "If the Thief Saint really comes, you can just pretend, but don't be impulsive. That guy is very skilled in martial arts. We have changed three county magistrates in just half a year. No one can stop him."
Li Yunxiao's kind tone made the patrolman feel good about him and he reminded him.
Li Yunxiao nodded: "Don't worry, we will be careful."
The patrolman nodded and smiled, and then helped Li Yunxiao and others open the box containing the food.
But just as he was opening it, the box was suddenly pulled by a force of energy and moved towards the monk.
boom!
The box was opened, revealing meat and wine inside. The monk on the far left snorted: "You've disturbed our listening, you waste!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out to grab something to eat.
call out!
Li Yunxiao grabbed the box back, looked at the food inside and asked, "Several masters are monks. This is meat and wine, not vegetarian food. Do you also eat it?"
The monk on the far left narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Although we are monks, we should avoid eating meat and wine. As the saying goes, meat and wine pass through the intestines, but Buddha kept it in his heart!"
Li Yunxiao didn't care when he heard this. Jiangchen was slightly startled: "Are you still considered a monk like this?"
The monk on the left wanted to say something more, but was stopped by the monk in the middle.
"Okay, hurry up and eat."
Lin Yan looked at the monks and shook his head, sighed and turned around to leave with the officers and soldiers.
"Sigh... I don't know when the Thief Saint will come. These guys have been staying here for three days. They eat a lot of meat and fish. We can only eat some steamed buns to comfort ourselves."
"Yeah, the steamed buns are pretty good. Eat them quickly. I'm already hungry."
"Give me one, give me one!"
....
A house in the inner courtyard of the county government office was brightly lit.
There was chatter and discussion inside.
"Come on, it's 80,000 yuan."
"Then I'll fight Kujo~~"
"My three tubes~"
The room was filled with smoke, and the county magistrate Yang Mingwan was holding a smoking pot and playing mahjong with three ladies.
Yang Mingwan comes from a wealthy family. To put it bluntly, he has some money.
He didn't make it to the imperial examination, but with some knowledge and financial resources, he heard that there was a ninth-grade county magistrate in Xiangyang that no one wanted to be, so he came over to do it.
He originally wanted to get some money back by becoming an official, but it didn't take long before he received a warning from the so-called Thief Saint, saying that he was going to lose money and eliminate disasters.
What can he do? Immediately ordered the arrest of the Thief Saint.
Unexpectedly, more than ten days later, instead of catching the Thief Saint, he actually angered the other party and put down his words and promised to take his head within three days.
Now he was a little panicked, so he spent a lot of money to invite someone back.
If you can capture the Thief Saint from him, you might be able to become famous in one go!
