Xiang Nan stayed in the tree for nearly two hours. It wasn't until it got dark that he faintly smelled a stink, which became stronger and stronger.
This stench is different from the stench in Qixia Town.
The stench of Qixia Town is the stench of fermented sewage. But the stench now is clearly the stench of corpses. As a good doctor, Xiang Nan is naturally very familiar with this.
As the stench became stronger and stronger, Xiang Nan also began to hear a swishing sound, like the sound of small animals running on the ground.
Xiang Nan's heart moved and he guessed that Lei Laowu was about to come out.
He quickly held his breath and concentrated not to make any sound.
After a while, a black shadow was seen slowly emerging from the hole in the tree.
As it emerges, its body size gradually increases. At first, it was only the size of a dog and didn't look like a human being at all. After a while, he finally returned to his human form.
During the process of this change, his bones made strange rattling noises, which made Xiang Nan feel uncomfortable.
If he hadn't been mentally prepared and knew that this was Lei Laowu using his bone-shrinking technique, he would have thought he was seeing a living ghost when he saw this scene in the wilderness, deep in the mountains and dense forests.
…
After Lei Laowu returned to his human form, he looked around and saw that there was no one around, then he poured the full bags on the ground and inspected them one by one.
"Yes, yes, they are all good treasures. As expected of a royal mausoleum, the treasures are just..." he said with a proud smile.
At this moment, Xiang Nan flicked his finger, and a flying needle shot out, but it made almost no sound.
Especially now in the evening, birds are returning to their nests and chirping; beasts are coming out of their holes and roaring again and again. The subtle sound made by the flying needle is even harder to detect.
In addition, Lei Laowu is only good at shrinking bones and is not good at other martial arts. In the play, when he was competing with Lao Bai, he dug a hole into the Yamen and was captured alive by a few tolerance officers.
In comparison, Pinggu Yidianhong went to jail to rescue the salt dealer. Even though the county government had made preparations in advance and invited the policemen from Shibalipu and Zuojiazhuang to ambush together, and also prepared long weapons and crossbows, Pinggu Yidianhong still had no way to stop him.
It can be seen that Lei Laowu's kung fu is not strong.
What's more, he didn't know that Xiang Nan was ambushing him, and it was impossible to guard against him either intentionally or unintentionally.
Xiang Nan shot the needle, but Lei Laowu didn't even move. The acupuncture point was directly stabbed by the flying needle, and he was frozen in place, motionless.
…
Xiang Nan then floated down from the tree and came behind him, hoping that he would know how to solve the acupuncture point, so he tapped him a few more times.
After confirming that he couldn't move, Xiang Nan used Qinggong and went all the way to Lou Zhixian's home.
Instead of letting the servants report, he used Qinggong to cross the wall and saw Lou Zhixian having a meal in his room.
Xiang Nan did not come forward to meet, but took out a piece of paper from his arms and picked up a pebble on the ground. Wrap the stone in paper and flick it with your fingers.
The pebbles whizzed away immediately, hitting Magistrate Lou's job with a bang. Just hearing the sound of Kacha, his job was shattered into pieces.
Lou Zhixian was stunned and quickly looked outside, but no one was there.
Then he looked down again and saw the pebble wrapped in paper on the table. When he opened it, he saw it read, "The tomb of King Xin in Taiping Mountain has been stolen."
Lou Zhixian was shocked when he saw it. …
As a parent official, he naturally knew who King Xin was. I didn't expect that his tomb would be in Taipingshan, let alone that his tomb would be stolen.
This is a huge eucalyptus that reaches the sky. Once the eucalyptus emerges, the court will be furious.
Therefore, Lou Zhixian could not take care of eating, so he immediately gathered people and rushed to Taiping Mountain.
After arriving there, I searched the mountain and happened to catch Lei Laowu who was immobilized by Xiang Nan.
"County magistrate, we caught him, it's him." Capt. Xing was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He didn't expect that such a big eucalyptus would be broken so quickly, and he was able to catch this tomb robber.
Looking at the way he was dressed and the stolen goods piled in front of him, it was as if both people had stolen the goods, and he couldn't deny it even if he wanted to.
"Very good, take him away and take away all the stolen goods." Lou Zhixian did not expect that the case would be solved so quickly, and he couldn't help but sigh for the protection of the gods.
…
Xiang Nan followed from a distance and was relieved when he saw that Lei Laowu was taken away.
The reason why he was so secretive and almost sneaky was to avoid getting into trouble.
Because Lei Laowu comes from a family of tomb robbers, his family kung fu may not be very good, but his bone-shrinking skills and digging holes are almost unrivaled in the world.
If you offend such a person, you are not afraid of confronting him head-on, but you are afraid that he will assassinate you secretly. The Bone Shrinking Technique combined with the Earth Technique is the most suitable for assassination. It is almost impossible to guard against.
Xiang Nan wanted to catch him, but he didn't want to be retaliated against, so he used this method.
As a result, Lei Laowu was caught, and no one knew that he was the one who did it except himself. It can be said that he has hidden his merits and fame.
…
In the following days, news of the theft of King Xin's tomb in Taiping Mountain spread throughout Qixia Town.
Many people seem to have experienced it personally, and it is said that they have noses and eyes.
For example, how Lei Laowu dug the robbery hole, what treasures were in King Xin's tomb, how the Yamen set up an ambush in advance, etc., are simply as mysterious as ever.
Thanks to Mr. Xing's propaganda, it turned out that he was the one who captured Lei Laowu that day.
It was obvious that Lei Laowu was immobilized by Xiang Nan, but he still took all the credit. He boasted that he had received the news a long time ago, and then squatted at the entrance of the thief's cave early, waiting for Lei Laowu to appear and catch him.
The common people were short-sighted and could not see through Xing's lies, so they naturally believed him to be true and praised him for his bravery, strategy and martial arts skills, which enabled him to quickly capture the tomb robbers and achieve great success.
The compliments from everyone also made Mr. Xing proud and happy.
In the past few days, Xiang Nan, the former head catcher, first competed in a marriage competition and won a beautiful girl. After that, he wiped out the Black Wind Village, eliminated harm to the people, and became a hero praised by everyone.
A few days ago, he even donated all the gift money to benefit Qixia Town, which made him even more praised by the people. It can be said that he stole the show.
In comparison, his current head catcher seems a bit incompetent and gloomy.
Now, he finally got back a win by capturing the tomb robber. He felt proud and naturally very happy.
…
"Let me tell you, the tomb of King Xin was stolen, and the court was furious. Even the emperor was angry. Liu Shilang of the Ministry of War was specially sent to supervise the incident. They will be here in a few days." Xing Captou was drinking at Tongfu Inn. Said to the crowd.
"Ouch, Minister of War?! That's a high-ranking official. It seems that our Qixia Town has never had such a high-ranking official." Tong Xiangyu said with a smile.
"That's natural." Mr. Xing nodded, "Let me tell you, Minister Liu has sent word that he will meet me specifically when the time comes."
"Ah, Lao Xing, you are really good." Tong Xiangyu said with a smile.
"Congratulations to Xing Baotou!", "Xing Baotou is so awesome!"
Other diners also congratulated.
Chief Xing is the only chief in the town. He is responsible for patrolling the streets, suppressing the ground, arresting suspects, and maintaining law and order. He has considerable power.
The so-called county officials are not as good as current officials. Few people dare to offend such a small official with real power. Naturally, everyone is happy to support it.
When Xing Captou heard this, he was naturally even more proud and smiled so hard that he couldn't even close his mouth.
