The lamp in the room was suddenly lit, and the light of the oil lamp illuminated the entire room. Shi Qian felt his eyes light up. He subconsciously huddled up and wanted to roll under the dark bed. What a thief fears most is to be suddenly exposed to the light. under.
"Still want to run?"
Sun Lei hit Shi Qian's back with a tap of the dragon's head stick. The force was not strong but it scared Shi Qian so much that he did not dare to move.
"Brother, is there a thief?"
Ruan Xiaoqi also woke up at this time. When he saw Sun Lei suppressing someone with a stick, he immediately took out the short knife beside him and jumped out of the bed. He put the knife on Shi Qian's neck. If Shi Qian dared to move, he would chop Shi Qian with one knife. Moving head.
"Are you making such a noise? Where do you think you're coming from?"
Lu Zhishen was also woken up. When he saw the thief on the ground, he jumped up and took the Zen staff beside the bed, ready to hit him.
"Master Lu, wait!"
Sun Lei stopped Lu Zhishen. Lu Zhishen might not be able to survive if he went down with a Zen stick.
"Brother, have mercy on me! Brother, have mercy on me! I admire my brother, and I just want to see my brothers tonight!"
Seeing that he was found with no way to escape, Shi Qian quickly begged for mercy.
"Looking at your good skills, you are the great thief in Gaotangzhou, Gushangflea Shiqian, right?"
Sun Lei asked Shi Qian, tapping him with a dragon-headed stick.
"Brother actually knows the villain's name. It's really a shame for the villain. He doesn't dare to be a big thief. It's just a petty theft!"
When Shi Qian saw that Sun Lei recognized him, he kowtowed and said.
"Since you are a member of the Jianghu community, why did you sneak in in the middle of the night?"
Lu Zhishen looked at Shi Qian with contempt in his eyes. Sneaky men are the lowest class in the world.
"I'm not sure if it's the brother of the Monkey King, Sun Lei. I wanted to check it out at night, but I never thought of running into him. I really deserve to die!"
Shi Qian kowtowed three times and said, this is his usual bad habit, he likes to do things secretly, and even when he meets people, he wants to do so secretly.
"Let's have a look?"
Sun Lei rapped his dragon-headed stick on the ground to express his dissatisfaction, which sounded uncomfortable.
"I want to meet my brother! I have a bad habit that is hard to change, so please forgive me!"
Shi Qian quickly changed his words and explained.
"Get up!"
Only then did Sun Lei's expression improve. Shi Qian was really used to sneaking around and using this despicable method on others. If it had been someone else, he would have been beaten to death. No wonder everyone in the Water Margin didn't treat him well. Seeing him, including Song Jiang who greeted everyone with a smile, Shi Qian was ranked one hundred and seven in the last seat, but with Shi Qian's ability and achievements, he would never be ranked so low.
"Thank you brother for sparing me!"
Shi Qian quickly stood up and saluted Sun Lei.
"How did you recognize me? We must have never met!"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Qian and asked, he had never been to Dongchang Mansion, nor had he seen Shi Qian, and no one recognized him along the way.
"My brother doesn't know. The villain is from Dongchang Prefecture, and Gao Lian, the prefect's Yin, is Gao Qiu's brother. My brother Dong Dong beat Gao Yanei to death with a stick and angered the Gao family. In order to take revenge, Gao Lian posted all over the city. My brother’s portrait, although the portrait is only three-thirds similar to my brother, I still have some good eyesight. I feel familiar after drinking today. When I think about it carefully, I think of my brother and the monk Lu Tiha!"
Shi Qian said eloquently that as a habitual thief, the most important thing he lacked was his eyesight, and he had a photographic memory for seeing people.
"I see!"
Sun Lei suddenly realized that he was not careful enough and was recognized so easily.
"Since you recognized my brother, you should be polite and ask for permission. Why did you sneak in in the middle of the night?"
Ruan Xiaoqi didn't care what Shi Qian said. He had a mission when he came out this time. He must protect Sun Lei's safety. He was very annoyed about this tonight. If he was an assassin, he would be in trouble.
"The villain knows his mistake! He knows his mistake!"
Shi Qian said with a grimace, this usual bad habit caused big trouble today.
"Xiao Qi, forget it, isn't this okay?"
Sun Lei smiled and held down Ruan Xiaoqi's knife hand.
"Brother, this little thief has such bad morals, there is no need to say anything to him!"
Lu Zhishen, who is usually bold and forthright, has no good feelings toward a thief like Shi Qian.
"Being a thief has nothing to do with your moral character. Aren't we just bandits now?"
Seeing Shi Qian's embarrassed look, Sun Lei said with a smile. From Lu Zhishen's words, Sun Lei could hear the deep contempt. Lu Zhishen was rarely like this, whether it was Li Zhong, the entertainer, Zhang San, Li Si, or Zhan Shan. He can sincerely make friends with the grass bandits who are kings, but he disdains these little thieves.
"Brother, I don't want to be a thief, but I can't help myself when I'm in the world. I only have the skills to be sneaky, so I really can't help myself!"
When Shi Qian heard Sun Lei speak for him, his eyes turned red and he was so moved that he started to cry. The blank stares and contempt he usually suffered flashed away in an instant, and his grievances suddenly turned over.
"What do you look like when you cry?"
Lu Zhishen thought that his words just now stimulated Shi Qian to speak in a rough voice, and he glanced at Sun Lei, asking Sun Lei to help him out. Although he despised a thief like Shi Qian, he didn't like people crying.
"My brother has a bad temper. When he heard Jin Cuilian cry, he got angry and punched Zheng Tu to death with three punches. If you cry again, I'm afraid I won't punch you three times!"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Qian and smiled. These words scared Shi Qian and he quickly stopped crying, but he stopped so hard that he started to twitch.
"Brother, what are you talking about?"
Lu Zhishen hurriedly waved his hands and refused to mention this matter. Why did Sun Lei say such a glorious deed as if he was sarcastically speaking.
"Shi Qian, are you here in the middle of the night for something?"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Qian and asked.
"The villain wants to follow his brother in front and back, but the villain is of low status and just wants to be a minion under his brother."
Shi Qian paid homage to him.
Lu Zhishen and Ruan Xiaoqi looked at Sun Lei. Although they were unwilling, Sun Lei had to decide this matter.
"I don't like what you do, you little thief!"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Qian and said with a serious face, he couldn't be careless when it came to the copycat, and the society he wanted couldn't be a bad one. Shi Qiancheng was both a loser and a thief, because he got into trouble and made a lot of merit.
"Brother, I swear that I will get rid of those bad habits. If I violate them, I am willing to have my hands chopped off!"
Shi Qian knelt down and put his hands on the ground. Lu Zhishen and Ruan Xiaoqi didn't know how to deal with this. These people had sworn such poisonous oaths, and they were sincere enough. No matter how wrong they were, it was hard to say that they would not forgive them. .
"Remember what you said today!"
Sun Lei lifted Shi Qian to his feet with a stick. Only then did he realize that Shi Qian was really thin. A six-foot man probably only weighed more than eighty pounds.
"Brother, I will never forget this!"
Shi Qian replied seriously.
"In fact, stealing is not wrong, but it depends on who you steal. If it is to steal innocent people for personal gain, then it is a despicable thief. But if it is used to steal unkind wealth to help the poor, then it is a thief who is also a thief! Yes! A real hero!"
Sun Lei looked at Shi Qian and said.
"Rogue!"
A fire suddenly arose in Shi Qian's cold heart. For the first time in more than two decades, he had a clear goal. He wanted to become a thieves man!
"Thank you for your advice, brother, I will never forget you!"
Shi Qian bowed to Sun Lei. At this moment, Sun Lei was the beacon in his life, saving his dark and confused life.
