At first, I thought that I was just a passerby of Zhou Bang's family, and if they met by chance, they would soon part ways and never meet again.
Although there was a small conflict at the beginning, they reconciled later and they were able to live in peace. However, Shichu thought wrongly. She didn't expect that she didn't want to take action against the family, but someone in the family wanted to take action against her.
Shichu originally thought that he would finally be able to have a good sleep in the inn that night, but he did not expect to be awakened by an uninvited guest who sneaked into his room in the middle of the night.
The person who came was obviously not a person with strong martial arts skills, because his footsteps were very heavy. Even though he tried his best to keep it quiet, it was very obvious to the ears of a martial arts practitioner like Shi Chu. I was aware of it the moment I entered the door.
The footsteps groped towards Shichu's bed. Shichu thought he wanted to sneak attack her. After waiting for a while, he thought of a self-defense counterattack. However, he didn't expect that this person just looked at her beside the bed for a while and found that she was very quiet. Without any sign of "waking up", he turned around and left the bed, walking to the table next to him, where there was the baggage that Shi Chu had used to hide himself from others.
The man's target was Shi Chu's baggage. He quietly untied the baggage and rummaged through it.
I was a little confused at first. Could it be that this person sneaked into his room just to steal something? Her baggage was used to hide her from others. It only contained two pairs of thin clothes, a little bit of silver, and small items necessary for survival in the wild such as a knife and a fire stick. They were not worth much.
But no matter how worthless it is, it is still her own thing, and cannot be allowed to be stolen by others. Shichu had no intention of letting the thief run away, so she quietly stood up, walked barefoot behind the man, and suddenly asked: " I don’t have anything valuable in this baggage.”
The man was so frightened by Shichu that he jumped up. Realizing that he had been discovered, he immediately dropped the things in his hands and tried to escape. However, how could Shichu let him escape? Stop him immediately.
This man hurriedly fought with Shi Chu several times, his movements were clumsy and slow, and he was quickly defeated by Shi Chu and was firmly pushed to the ground.
After tying the person with a rope, Shichu lit the oil lamp and found that the thief looked familiar, so he asked: "I think I have seen you before. Who are you?"
】
The thief was so flustered that he closed his mouth tightly and said nothing. He lowered his head and tried his best to hide his appearance.
"You think I can't do anything to you if you don't speak?" Shichu sneered, stretched out his hand and tapped a certain acupuncture point on his body. In an instant, the thief's expression suddenly changed, his face twisted, and he fell to the ground. Rolling and wailing.
This wailing sound instantly woke up many people in the inn in the silent night. When Shichu heard someone wake up from their sleep to check the situation in panic, she frowned, tore off a piece of tablecloth and stuffed it into the thief's mouth.
"Have you thought about confessing?" Shichu asked. The thief was already crying in pain, his face was distorted, and he was in a state of embarrassment.
"You actually have some backbone." When Shi Chu saw that he still refused to confess, he pressed several other acupuncture points heavily, and instantly the severe pain on his body became many times stronger, making him miserable.
The thief finally couldn't stand the severe pain any more, so he knelt down and kowtowed to Shi Chu, repeatedly signaling with his eyes that he compromised and wanted to confess.
At first, I wasn't afraid that he was pretending to surrender, so I tore off the rag stuffed in his mouth. The thief's painful cry was instantly revealed: "I'll attack! I'll attack anything!"
"Say it, if you dare to lie to me, I will let you die of pain." Shichu warned.
"I dare not lie to you... I am the cousin of Zhou Bang's wife. It was his wife who asked me to steal your things. I want to teach you a lesson. It is better for you to live on the street if you are penniless..." The thief cried bitterly. He confessed with tears in his eyes.
When Shichu heard his words, she immediately remembered why she thought he looked familiar. It turned out that he was from Zhou Bang. She had seen him yesterday, but she was not impressed enough that she did not remember it. Now he has hired someone of his own The identity came to mind from the beginning.
But - "Why did Zhou Bang's wife let you steal my things and let me live on the street?" Shichu thought that she had not offended her. After all, she kept the matter of cuckolding Zhou Bang in her heart and said nothing. ? Could it be that she is so keen that she has realized that she has seen something fishy in her, and is she feeling guilty?
But even if he was guilty and wanted to silence himself, it would be useless just to steal all his money and belongings. Shichu immediately overturned his speculation.
Sure enough, the thief immediately said: "Because she was angry that you refused to share the roast mutton with her son last night. She felt that you were stingy and narrow-minded. It would be difficult to relieve her hatred without revenge... Hero, I have tried everything. Oh, please relieve me! This is too painful!"
Shichu didn't relieve him immediately, and he should be punished if he dared to steal her things.
As for what he confessed, he said that Zhou Bang's wife wanted to take revenge on him because she was angry that he didn't give the roast meat to her son. I was very surprised at the beginning. I didn't expect that just because of this, Zhou Bang's wife wanted to take revenge on him. This was not true. I know who is more petty and mean-spirited.
But why did she send her cousin to steal her things? Shouldn't you find a trusted confidant to do this kind of thing? Is this cousin the most trusted person by Zhou Bang's wife?
At first, she looked at the thief suspiciously. As she looked at it, she could tell that something fishy was going on. No wonder she asked this "cousin" to do such secretive things. It turned out that this man was her son's biological father. !
At the beginning, it suddenly dawned on her that Zhou Bang's wife's godfather had been found by her. These two people were so bold. They actually had an affair under Zhou Bang's nose and gave birth to an illegitimate child. They were not afraid of being discovered. They were clearly in front of them. He looks very similar to Zhou Bang's son. He has the same deep double eyelids, high nose bridge and thin lips, and looks like a ruthless person.
But maybe this man was a little thin and dark, so no one connected him with Zhou Bang's fat son.
When Shi Chu saw Mrs. Zhou Bang's cuckolding of Zhou Bang, he didn't want to expose her. He just wanted to pretend that she didn't know, but he didn't expect that she wanted to spare her. On the contrary, she didn't want to spare herself, so Shi Chu was very worried. She was angry and felt that this person was ungrateful. She wanted to let her go, but she bumped into him and wanted to die. Then he would let her go.
So Shichu pressed the thief's acupuncture points a few more times. The thief suddenly cried and howled, waking up everyone in the inn. Shichu immediately shouted in shock: "There is a thief! Catch the thief!"
As soon as she said this, other people in the inn immediately came out to help catch the thief.
