Everyone in the yard was digging a hole, but Zheng Jianzi had the highest level of cultivation. Although he dug later than the guards, he dug deeper and faster than them, so he was the first to dig the tunnel below and fell down.
The tunnel below was very narrow and not high, but it caused a large-scale landslide. Zheng Xingxing was caught by surprise. He didn't react for a while, and was suddenly buried in the soil for most of his body, looking a little embarrassed. At the same time, four exquisite sandalwood boxes were exposed in the collapsed soil not far away. The lids of the boxes were all opened, and there was nothing inside.
Zheng Jianzi ignored the dirt on his body and shouted: "There are people down there, there are thieves!" As he shouted, the force of his palms spurted out in all directions, causing dirt and gravel to splash out, causing more landslides.
In the chaos, Zheng Jianzi grabbed a corner of his clothes and pulled up with all his strength. He immediately pulled up a robe. Then he reached down and pulled out his obscene clothes and trousers. He shouted: "What a thief, how dare you try the trick of a golden cicada to escape from his shell?" I'm coming out!"
Some of the guards at the door used short shovels as magic weapons. They immediately took out the shovels and shoveled the soil quickly in the direction pointed by Zheng Xingxing. They immediately shoveled out a tunnel. There were also guards who were good at water. They used the magic formula to clear the ground. The accumulated muddy water gathered into a dragon and poured into the tunnel.
A rapid coughing sound immediately came from the tunnel.
Zheng Jianzi stepped up his tracking and dug along the direction of the tunnel. The retainer guards also assisted from the side, presenting the tunnel to everyone.
Not long after, they dug under the wall. At this moment, they didn't care whether it would alarm the market place, so they directly blasted open the courtyard wall and continued digging along the tunnel. After digging for a few more feet, we reached a courtyard in the northeast. Suddenly, a man jumped out of the courtyard, naked and carefree, and jumped quickly on the roofs of various houses, heading straight for the north gate.
Zheng Jianzi shouted: "The thief is out, don't leave the thief!" He led his men to chase after him.
As soon as they chased him out, Jing Er, a retainer, shouted from behind: "Zheng Xingxing, there is a tunnel here!"
It's a pity that Zheng Xingxing was only focused on chasing the naked guy and didn't hear or pay attention to Jing Er's reminder.
Jing Er called out twice and saw that Zheng Jianzi had already led the other disciples in pursuit. When he was hesitating whether to follow or follow the newly discovered tunnel, someone next to him suddenly said: "Are you Jing Er?"
Jing Er turned his head to look, his body trembling. The person who came was none other than Chang Zisheng, a local snake and Chen Guoxing, a serious local cultivator who had arrived from Wanqiu at some unknown time. At that moment, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply: "I've seen Chang walking."
Chang Zisheng asked: "What's going on with this tunnel?" Seeing that Jing Er was speechless and didn't answer, he frowned and urged his men: "Come on, let the next person go and take a look."
Jing Er wanted to escape, but was blocked by two retainers of Chang Xingxing. Without saying a word, they went up and tied him up. Jing Er shouted, "What is Chang Xingxing doing?"
Chang Zisheng sneered: "I would like to ask, what does Zheng Jianzi want to do?"
Jing Er defended: "I was walking around my house to follow the thieves and they were taking people away."
Chang Zisheng said disdainfully: "The academy has its own rules, so why don't you know how to take advantage of me? Furthermore, why are you digging a hole in this house to take people? I think taking people is fake, but stealing treasures is real! I am very angry about this matter." I need to discuss it with your family..."
Just as he was talking, a head emerged from the pit. It was the retainer who had just been ordered to go down to check. He reported to Chang Xing: "This tunnel leads to the neighbor's house across the street. The owner said he didn't know about it."
Chang Xing said coldly: "Don't know? How is it possible? Lock them up together!"
Another visitor reported: "While walking, I found this thing in the pit, with the surname Wei embroidered on it." He was holding a pile of clothes in his hand, which were full of soil and shabby.
Chang Zisheng asked curiously: "Which thief would embroider his or her name on his clothes?"
The guest said: "Zhen Xingxing, as far as my subordinates know, there is really one person. I think it is this person - the big thief Wei Fushen."
Chang Xingxing smiled: "Wei Fushen? He really has this hobby? So, he was the one who escaped without any clothes just now?"
All the disciples asked for a fight: "Xing Xing, let's chase after him? Don't let Zheng Xingxing take the credit!"
"Yeah, I'm afraid it'll be too late if it's too late!"
"That guy ran towards the north gate!"
"Zheng Xingxing is crowded..."
Chang Zisheng smiled: "Don't be in a hurry, even if you catch up, it will be too late. I heard that in the fields of the Song Dynasty, hares often ran around, broke their necks when they touched the trees, and the farmers waited for them."
The doorman suddenly asked: "Walking to predict that Wei will be like a hare, bumping back on its own?"
Chang Xingxing was so angry that he slapped a chestnut on his forehead: "Wei Fuchen is not a rabbit, Zheng Jianzi is the rabbit. No matter how much he eats, he will vomit it out!"
A group of carriages came from far away in the street, but the rider was Xiang Chengyin. Xiang Chengyin is the leader of the Xiang family, a noble family in the Chen State. He has a very high status in the Chen State and is among the middle-ranking officials. Xiangcheng is originally the fiefdom of his family. With such a big thing happening in the city, Xiang Chengyin couldn't sit still anymore, so he rushed over with dozens of followers. He was about to take someone away in an aggressive manner, when he suddenly recognized Chang Zisheng, and his neck immediately shrank. .
"This... I don't know how to walk your way to Xiangcheng. I am unable to greet you. Please forgive me."
Chang Zisheng snorted and said, "Xiang Yin, the Academy wants important criminals to enter the city. How are the city gates guarded?"
Xiang Chengyin complained in his heart that when thieves entered the city, even if there was a wanted notice hung at the city gate, it would be difficult to prevent them. This had long been an act of falsehood, but at this moment he did not dare to refute, but hurriedly explained his difficulties and begged for forgiveness.
Chang Zisheng was stationed in Wanqiu. Whatever happened to other cities in the country, they often relied on the help of the local city Yin. Therefore, it was not a big deal for him. He just asked Xiang Chengyin to immediately block the four gates and follow the sea pattern of the shadow. The thief Wei Fusun was arrested for document hunting.
While they were talking, Chang Zi's guest came out from a house across the street and tied up the head of the house. The head of the house cried out loudly and cried loudly when he saw Xiang Chengyin. Xiang Chengyin did not dare to intervene, but ordered people to seal off the house. Door.
When the Xiangcheng guards rushed to the South City Gate, they shouted in the street: "The City Yin has an order to arrest the thief Wei Fushen. All doors are closed tightly, and people entering and exiting are strictly controlled..."
The city gate slowly closed. The guard looked at the two people who were the last to leave the city. He pointed his riding whip and said to the guards: "Who are the two people wearing straw hats?"
The guard put his hands on his hips and reported: "The savages outside the city, those who come into the city to do hard work, don't worry, Chen Li, there are no Dao Wei floating or sinking among them." After saying that, he shouted to the two people outside the city: "That savage, the one wearing a straw hat, stop. !”
The two stopped and turned back. The guard took off the wooden plaque portrait of Wei Fushen from the city gate and handed it to the guard: "Chen, please take a look."
The guard looked at it and saw that the difference was indeed huge. He nodded and said, "Be more careful and don't let the thieves escape. This is a serious crime in the academy!"
A group of guards stepped in and responded: "Here!"
The leader waved to the two people standing blankly outside the city gate: "Let's go, let's go, don't block the city gate."
