"That's really a pity."
Ye Xiao said.
"It's okay, Brother Ye, this female snitch will be brought to justice by us soon!"
Li Xiaoyao looked confident.
"Thank you two knights for helping me find my baggage."
The fat, well-dressed antique dealer looked happy that his baggage could be recovered. He was so grateful to Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.
This feeling of regaining something lost.
The most amazing thing.
"Why thank you? It's a trivial matter."
Li Xiaoyao waved his hand, but he didn't need the antique dealer's thanks.
In his mind, he was going to be a hero.
As a hero, catching a petty thief is just a casual and trivial matter.
Lin Yueru also grinned, showing a very bold side, "It is our duty as knights to capture the snitch."
The antique dealer was grateful, but after unpacking the bag, his brows gradually wrinkled.
Soon, he checked again and again, and his face gradually became more and more ugly.
"There is an antique missing from my baggage - the purple gold gourd."
The antique dealer said with a dark face.
On the spot, Lin Yueru and Li Xiaoyao looked at each other and felt that the purple gold gourd had definitely been taken away by the female snitch.
It's just that they think so, but the antique dealer doesn't agree.
"You must have stolen my purple gourd! Return the purple gourd to me quickly!"
The antique dealer looked indignant and furious. He thought the two people in front of him were knights, but who knew they were two out-and-out thieves.
You really know people, faces but not hearts!
"Don't accuse Brother Xiaoyao unjustly. How could Brother Xiaoyao steal your purple gourd!"
Zhao Ling'er, who had been wearing a black veil and had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
She was very dissatisfied and complained about Li Xiaoyao.
Even Li Xiaoyao was a little angry, "I didn't steal your purple gourd. I helped you, but now you rake it away? What kind of logic is this!"
"You ungrateful bitch, you deserve to have your baggage stolen!"
Lin Yueru has always been straightforward, and her face looks ugly right now.
She really regretted it. She really shouldn't have helped the antique dealer hunt down the female snitch.
"you……"
The antique shop gritted his teeth and wanted to say more, but he also shut up.
The other party has a large number of people, so if there is a conflict, he will definitely suffer a big loss.
Therefore, he also made a bold decision in his heart.
Report to the official tomorrow.
We must let the government handle this matter!
Ye Xiao watched all this with cold eyes, but never said a word.
Because when he was serious, the antique dealer was already dead.
If he didn't guess the wrong flower.
Antique shops will be killed by a toad spirit on the way out of Yangzhou.
The next morning.
Li Xiaoyao and others, who had just finished breakfast, encountered a group of aggressive police officers.
The leader of the catcher, who was huge, round-waisted and tall, stared coldly at Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.
"Are you Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru? Come and visit our Yamen!"
As soon as this statement came out.
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru were both stunned.
What happened?
no.
They have always been chivalrous and righteous, fighting against the strong and supporting the weak.
How could he be targeted by the police?
"Ah!"
The head catcher snorted coldly and briefly told what Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru had committed.
The two of them understood this when they heard it.
It turns out that the antique dealer really went to the Yamen to report to the official.
They didn't steal this shit Zijin Gourd at all.
A blink of an eye.
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru went to court with the antique dealer.
Both sides held their own opinions, which made the county magistrate, who was sitting upright in a black official hat and blue official uniform, a little confused.
I don't understand who is right.
The county magistrate had no choice but to issue an order.
Search the residences of Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru to see if they can find the purple gourd.
But as a result, once the search continued, the purple gold gourd was nowhere to be found.
"Master County Magistrate, after one night, they both hid the purple gold gourd."
The antique dealer looked aggrieved. Over the years he had been doing business in Yangzhou, he had finally made a fortune. He was finally going back to the capital to reunite with his family. Who would have thought that such a terrible thing would happen right now.
This couple of bitches are so abominable.
"Quit!"
The county magistrate gave the order directly, and he yawned as he spoke.
I had a hard night last night and my back ached.
Now, he is going back to catch up on his sleep.
Wait until you have to withdraw.
The antique dealer was very dissatisfied, and even cast resentful eyes on Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.
Li Xiaoyao said nothing with a cold face.
Lin Yueru snorted, "White-eyed wolf!"
"You two..."
The antique dealer still wanted to curse, but the curse words stuck in his throat.
He didn't dare to say anything.
He was afraid.
The martial arts of this pair of dogs and men are particularly extraordinary.
If he really angered them both, he might lose his life.
The antique dealer left the Yamen in despair, but his eyes wandered over and over again, as if he was thinking about a countermeasure.
Soon, he had a solution.
If you follow Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.
maybe.
Then he can find his purple gold gourd.
But if he is alone, it will definitely be dangerous. He may need to spend some money to recruit those agents.
As soon as he had an idea, the antique dealer immediately took action.
"Young man and woman are waiting, I will definitely get the purple and gold gourd that belongs to me."
The antique shop had a dark face and muttered to himself.
Li Xiaoyao, who walked out of the Yamen and joined Ye Xiao and Zhao Ling'er, also said, "It's true that good intentions are not rewarded."
Zhao Ling'er nodded, feeling that what happened to brother Xiaoyao was too unlucky.
Subsequently.
The group of people also continued to trace the whereabouts of the female snitch.
finally.
Li Xiaoyao and others also targeted a house.
"Last night, the female snitch escaped near this house. If you ask the owner of this house, you will definitely be able to get clues."
Li Xiaoyao said.
Zhao Linger and Lin Yueru nodded heavily.
Ye Xiao didn't say anything. Maybe he could easily help Li Xiaoyao catch the female thief, but if this happened, the profit would be too little.
With the abilities of Li Xiaoyao and others, they were also able to catch the female snitch.
"Dongdong!"
Li Xiaoyao knocked on the door of the house himself.
Only a few knocks were made.
The door of the house was opened.
Taking a closer look, the person who opened the door was dressed as a maid.
But this maid was wearing gold and silver and looked very wealthy.
For a moment.
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru realized something was wrong.
This maid's dress is too unconventional.
Ordinary maids are very shabbily dressed, but the maid in front of me is wearing a lot of valuable jewelry.
Li Xiaoyao also explained his purpose of coming and asked the owner of the house for information.
"You guys follow me."
The maid smiled sweetly, but did not embarrass Li Xiaoyao and others.
But the maid's behavior made Li Xiaoyao realize that they seemed to be falling into a trap.
Shortly after.
Everyone saw the owner of this house, who was a very beautiful woman.
The beautiful woman has charming eyes and a plump figure, which is very attractive.
Li Xiaoyao explained his intention directly.
"Last night, I didn't see any snitches. Last night, I went to bed early."
Ji Sanniang said with a smile.
While speaking, she pretended to be coquettish and looked at Li Xiaoyao frequently.
Li Xiaoyao also quickly evaded, not wanting to have anything to do with this beautiful woman.
Zhao Ling'er frowned slightly, she just felt that Ji Sanniang in front of her was really a shameless woman.
But she couldn't say curse words.
Soon, everyone said goodbye and left.
Once you leave.
Li Xiaoyao suggested that this Ji Sanniang was very suspicious and that they should sneak into the house and conduct a search.
We must get to the bottom of it!
His proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.
Soon, everyone followed the high wall and sneaked into the house.
But just as they arrived at the house, they saw a scene hidden in the dark.
In this scene, Ji Sanniang is showing her sneaky side, cautiously approaching a dry well in the backyard of the house.
At the same time, Ji Sanniang also threw a baggage directly into the dry well.
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru looked at each other.
They were absolutely convinced that the baggage must be the Purple Gold Gourd!
After Ji Sanniang disappeared.
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru also had to quickly dive into the dry well to find the baggage.
"Caution is the boat."
Ye Xiao gave a reminder.
Li Xiaoyao nodded, and the more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became.
Ji Sanniang was already full of doubts.
And they left the house with their front legs, lurked into the house with their back legs, and witnessed this scene. Is this too much of a coincidence?
If Ji Sanniang rushed to inform the government, they fell into a dry well to get their baggage.
You will definitely be "taken away"!
Suddenly, Li Xiaoyao calmed down and decided to wait and wait for the arrests to arrive.
If they really couldn't see the catcher, they would go to the dry well, and it would be too late to find the baggage.
soon.
Li Xiaoyao and his group wandered around the house.
Don't even say it.
They saw the familiar head catcher from this morning again.
The chief catcher leads many agents.
And there were two other people beside the head catcher.
Ji Sanniang, whose charm is still there.
Another person is an antique dealer.
"It's you, what a coincidence."
The head catcher looked surprised.
The antique dealer was also surprised.
Among them, the one with the most exciting expression was Ji Sanniang. She realized on the spot that something was wrong.
She originally wanted to frame Li Xiaoyao and his party, but now it seems that she miscalculated.
no.
She wants to run away.
If you don't run away.
When everyone and everything was stolen, she couldn't escape even if she wanted to.
all of a sudden.
Ji Sanniang lost her usual calmness and became a little confused.
Li Xiaoyao saw Ji Sanniang's panicked side and became even more certain that Ji Sanniang must be the female snitch.
Moreover, when he looked closely at Ji Sanniang, he felt that Ji Sanniang and his mother really seemed to have a few similarities.
"Captain, are you here to catch the snitch?"
Li Xiaoyao said.
"good."
The catcher nodded and replied.
"The female snitch is looking ahead, right in front of her. She is this Ji Sanniang."
Li Xiaoyao's words were astonishing.
Ji Sanniang wanted to run away, but Lin Yueru blocked her way.
This made Ji Sanniang unable to escape temporarily.
"Don't slander anyone! How can I be a female snitch!"
Ji Sanniang looked dissatisfied, feeling that she had been wronged.
The catcher also shook his head, not believing it either.
"Come with me."
Li Xiaoyao said.
Everyone looked dubious.
Soon, under the leadership of Li Xiaoyao, everyone entered Ji Sanniang's house and also came to the dry well in the backyard.
By the way, Li Xiaoyao also talked about Ji Sanniang throwing the baggage into the dry well.
The head catcher signaled the agents to control Ji Sanniang, and he went to search in the dry well himself.
Just a moment.
The head catcher who jumped into the dry well took a baggage and climbed out of the dry well.
Open the bag and take a look.
It really is the purple gold gourd from an antique dealer.
"Found it, found it! My antique! My antique!"
On the spot, the antique dealer was overjoyed and cried with joy.
On the other hand, Ji Sanniang's face became even more ugly. She never expected that Li Xiaoyao would take advantage of her.
"Now that things have happened, what else do you have to say? He actually shouted "Catch the thief" and told me that your house was broken into. I guess you are the biggest evil thief!"
The catcher looked at Ji Sanniang coldly, and felt very happy in his heart.
This female snitch gave even the governor of Yangzhou a headache.
But now it fell into his hands and was arrested by him personally.
This is definitely a great achievement!
Generous rewards are definitely indispensable. Maybe his position as head catcher can be moved and he can be promoted!
"Swish!"
Ji Sanniang's face was as pale as paper and she wanted to escape, but now she had no way to retreat.
finally.
Ji Sanniang was taken away by the police, but before leaving, Ji Sanniang glared at Li Xiaoyao with resentment in her eyes.
"Thank you so much, my benefactor. Thank you so much."
The antique dealer thanked Li Xiaoyao again.
Just facing his thank you, Li Xiaoyao looked indifferent and ignored him.
That night, Li Xiaoyao and others rested at the inn, preparing to leave tomorrow.
A blink of an eye.
It's bright.
Li Xiaoyao and his party had dinner at the inn.
But what the customers in the store said made them a little confused.
"Did you hear that?"
"A toad spirit appeared in the mountains near Yangzhou!"
"This matter has been known to everyone for a long time. You are too ill-informed to know the news now!"
"It is said that the toad spirit is as big as a cow!"
"What a scary toad spirit!"
…
The guests were discussing, and the discussions were getting more and more mysterious.
The more he talked about it, the more interested he became in Li Xiaoyao and others.
"We'll go take a look later to see if there really is a toad spirit!"
Li Xiaoyao was very interested.
Ye Xiao nodded, feeling that the opportunity for profit had come again.
Another desperate boss came to kill Li Xiaoyao.
Finished breakfast in a hurry.
Li Xiaoyao and his party walked from the north gate of Yangzhou to the mountains.
Not long after walking, they saw a body on the mountain road.
This corpse turned out to be that of an acquaintance, that antique dealer!
"Rake it down, you deserve to die!"
Lin Yueru snorted coldly, showing no sympathy for the antique dealer's death.
Li Xiaoyao also took the initiative to look at the antique dealer's body.
There are obvious bite marks on the neck.
"He was bitten to death by a toad spirit?"
Li Xiaoyao looked puzzled, and he also started to touch the corpse and took away the antique dealer's baggage.
"In this wilderness, this burden is of no use to the dead. Only if it is left to the living can it be of use."
Li Xiaoyao said seriously.
"Pfft!"
Zhao Ling'er couldn't help but smile, feeling that Brother Xiaoyao really wouldn't let go of anything even a dead person.
Lin Yueru also looked like she couldn't help laughing.
"Maybe the toad spirit is nearby."
Ye Xiao reminded, hoping that the toad spirit would appear as soon as possible and give experience points to Li Xiaoyao as soon as possible.
