"What dragnet?"
Lu Zhishen touched his bare head and didn't understand what Sun Lei was talking about.
"You don't have to worry about it, just take care of it!"
Sun Lei just said this without looking back.
Lu Zhishen shook his head and stopped thinking so much. He held the wine jar and continued fighting with the fat chicken.
Sun Lei came back in the middle of the night, and Lu Zhishen was sleeping against the tree trunk, snoring.
"Master Lu, why are you so irresponsible? What if the thief escapes?"
Sun Lei kicked Lu Zhishen. There were chicken bones all around this guy, and the wine jar rolled empty on the ground. Even if the thief escaped from in front of him, Lu Zhishen probably wouldn't even know it.
"Hmph, when did Sajia fall asleep?"
Lu Zhishen stopped snoring and opened his eyes suddenly. There was no look of sleepiness in his eyes.
"Are you pretending to sleep?"
Sun Lei was shocked by Lu Zhishen.
"How dare the thief come out if I don't pretend to be asleep?"
Lu Zhishen brushed his head and flicked a dead leaf on it to the ground.
Sun Lei looked at it and was secretly speechless. Lu Zhishen turned out to have such a delicate mind. He really hadn't noticed it in the past two days.
"What are you looking at me for? Where have you been? There is no food or drink in the forest. I expect this thief will escape at sunrise. You find a place to hide, and I will continue to pretend to be asleep."
Lu Zhishen found a larger leaf on the ground and said, "Dawn is when people are most sleepy, and the thief will definitely escape at that time."
"That's good, Master Lu. You can stay on the northwest side later, and I'll just guard the southeast side. Let's block both sides to ensure that he can't escape."
Sun Lei pointed at two roads, the one in the northwest was the road they were chasing, and the one in the southeast was a small road. This area was densely wooded, and they could only take these two roads if they wanted to get out.
"Guarding the southeast?"
Lu Zhishen looked at Sun Lei with some suspicion. He had learned some things about Sun Lei in the past two days. Apart from being a heavy drinker, his boxing and kicking skills were no different from ordinary people. The flower-picking thief was not a kind person. His boxing and kicking skills were not bad, and his leg strength was pretty good. .
"You call me brother, why can't you still trust me? As long as that guy just runs away from me, we brothers will work together to ensure that he can't escape this dragnet!"
Sun Lei said confidently.
"Okay, the Sa family has always believed in brothers, so let's just stay on one side."
Lu Zhishen said cheerfully, there are two ways out of this mountain forest, he can only guard one, and the other can only be handed over to Sun Lei.
A touch of fish belly white appeared on the horizon, and a dark shadow in the dense forest in the mountain was wiped out by this light. This man was a skinny man in his thirties. His face looked even paler when illuminated by the weak moonlight, but his face was full of... He has a ferocious appearance and a conspicuous golden seal tattooed on his forehead.
The man's clothes were torn by thorns. He walked out of the dense forest on the side of the mountain and found the road.
"That damn monk should go."
The skinny middle-aged man muttered that he had some bad luck today. He wanted to go to a brothel to have a quickie, but someone found out. When he ran away, he met a nosy monk.
"If I had known earlier, I would have gone to a nearby village to find someone to attack!"
The skinny man said bitterly.
"Sajia, I see you don't have that chance!"
Lu Zhishen roared, jumped down from a tree, and was about to kick the skinny man.
The skinny man reacted quickly and rolled forward to avoid Lu Zhishen's kick.
"You thief, take your life!"
When Lu Zhishen landed, he punched the skinny man with his fist.
The skinny man didn't dare to take it hard. He grabbed his hands on the ground and threw a handful of dead leaves mixed with soil towards Lu Zhishen.
Lu Zhishen's fist turned into a palm, and he blocked the dirt and leaves with his movements, preventing them from hurting his eyes.
In just an instant, the skinny man ran towards the dense forest on the side, which was the southeast direction where Sun Lei was guarding.
"Don't run away!"
Lu Zhishen immediately chased after him.
Sun Lei, who had been guarding in the southeast for a long time, heard Lu Zhishen's thunderous shout and knew that the man was coming. He took out a small gong and a small hammer from the cloth bag behind his back.
"Catch the thief! Catch the thief!"
Sun Lei banged the gong and shouted, and lit a dozen fires by the way.
The skinny man who had just run into the trail was so frightened that he ran a little faster, seemingly without even having to touch the ground, and fled out of the woods in a flash.
"Hurry up and chase him! Why did you let him pass!"
Lu Zhishen then ran over. His steps were not as light as that of the flower-picking thief, so he naturally did not run as fast. When he saw Sun Lei beating the gong at the side, he stared and asked, "This is the road that Sun Lei was originally guarding, but he let the thief escape." .
"Master Lu, why are you anxious? He can't escape. This is just a sky gong. There is a ground net over there. Where did he escape?"
Sun Lei put out the torch, knocked the gong hard and said with a smile.
"Don't believe it, let's go take a look and find out."
Sun Lei beat the gong briskly and walked along the road out of the woods, humming.
"The king asked me to patrol the mountain..."
Lu Zhishen stared and followed him. When he came, there was no sign of the thief, so he must have escaped.
At the end of the forest path, a huge silkworm chrysalis-like object was squirming slightly on the ground, accompanied by painful moans.
"How about it, I said he can't run away!"
Sun Lei proudly pointed at the skinny man on the ground who was trapped firmly by the fishing net. In order to prevent him from being trapped unsteadily, Sun Lei specially found some thin thorns and put them on the fishing net. Now he looked at the bloody fishing net and the rolled flesh. The skinny man, you don’t need to guess to know that this man must have gone through a painful struggle. The fishing net with thorns is like an iron hook. The more you struggle, the tighter it will be. The tighter it will be, the more painful it will be. The more painful it will be. Struggling desperately, because of human instinct, this is an endless cycle. Those thorns have penetrated deeply into the skin and flesh of the skinny man. The bloody flesh is painful to look at. Sun Lei accidentally got pricked when cutting these thorns, and he felt live that pain.
"Brother, how did you catch this guy?"
Lu Zhishen looked at the flower-picking thief who was twitching in pain on the ground and gave up the idea of going up and kicking him. He was covered in thorns and there was no place to put his feet. Lu Zhishen felt pain just by looking at him. Why bear thorns to ask for forgiveness? Poisonous thorns are more terrifying than whips.
"I arranged this fishing net at the exit of the trail. At dawn, the light in the woods was poor. I beat the gong and shouted. This guy thought that a large group of people were coming to catch him. He must have run away desperately and would not pay attention to this fishing net. If he bumped into it, he would not be safe. Just like a fish, it was tightly netted. In order to prevent it from running away, I also chopped some thin thorns, and it seems to have a good effect."
Sun Lei said proudly, raised the gong in his hand, and pointed at the thief who was tied up in a fishing net on the ground.
"Isn't this just a dragnet? How can he escape?"
"Brother, you are good at what you do? The Sa family admires you!"
Lu Zhishen looked at the gong in Sun Lei's hand and then at the thief tied up in a fishing net on the ground. He clasped his fists at Sun Lei and said, had it not been for Sun Lei's clever plan today, the thief would have been allowed to escape.
"Master Lu is serious, he is just a stupid thief, it's no big deal."
Sun Lei chuckled.
