"No, are you really stuck?" the man exclaimed.
"Who are you? Why did you appear in Elder Shi's room?" Qin Feng held the man's arm, while Wei Xi shook the dagger sinisterly. At first glance, she did not look like a good person.
"What Elder Shi?" When the moonlight shone on the man's face, Wei Xi and Qin Feng saw clearly that he had a pair of amber eyes, and he looked a bit like a barbarian.
Qin Feng tried her best. Because of her family, she couldn't like Hu people.
"It hurts, it hurts!" The man shouted with his voice stretched out. He seemed to be about the same age as Qin Feng, but not as strong as Qin Feng, who had been practicing martial arts since childhood.
"Don't say you don't know who Elder Shi is?" Qin Feng said with a fake smile, "Do you want these hands?"
"Don't kill immortal cultivators indiscriminately! You are still wearing a Taoist robe!"
This man was quite perceptive, but Wei Xi also had a temper. He went up and slapped him twice. He could tell from the sound that it hurt.
"Of course you can't kill indiscriminately. My sister's hand is enough." Qin Feng's tone was cold, "Elder Shi, you don't know where my flower is?"
"...Your flower mother-of-pearl?" The man paused and began to threaten Qin Feng, "It turns out that you have a guilty conscience and killed someone and came back to get the flower mother-of-pearl! Let me go quickly, or I will ask you to take care of things. Elder!"
"You..." Qin Feng was about to refute when he saw Wei Xi slapping his face with a dagger. To be honest, it was a bit funny. Wei Xi was the youngest among the three, and naturally the shortest. If it wasn't for her sullen face, you wouldn't be able to tell that she was threatening.
"You can try it and see if anyone believes your lies."
"On the other hand, you are neither a monk nor an official in the city." Wei Xi took back the dagger. "You appeared in Elder Shi's room and you were able to hide yourself. I would say you are the biggest suspect."
"Then it won't be indiscriminate killing of innocent people." Wei Xi knew this well, because Master Han Xian recited it every time in class and after class. No one understood the meaning of indiscriminate killing better than Wei Xi.
"You have such a bad heart," the man was stunned, "Agu really didn't lie to me, you have the most poisonous heart in a woman."
"What did you say?" Qin Feng was not happy to hear this and pinched him hard again, "Stop talking nonsense to him. Find Huadian and take him to see Senior Sister Fan."
"Don't! Don't say goodbye!" The man also knew the current situation and knew that these two people were not good friends. "Let's trust each other. You have also seen it. How could I, an ordinary person, kill the immortal master?"
"That's not necessarily true," Qin Feng said sarcastically, "Can ordinary people run on the roof for that long?"
"Thank you for the compliment! I'm just making a living, I'm a habitual thief."
Qin Feng cast a questioning look at Wei Xi, and Wei Xi signaled to listen to what he had to say.
Wei Xi had never seen a habitual thief in her whole life, and she couldn't tell whether what this man said was true or false, but his hiding skills didn't prevent him from stealing.
Seeing that there was something going on, the man quickly continued, "I am a habitual thief. There are many people coming and going in the inn, so I often steal. Today I happened to bump into the room you went to. As soon as I entered, I saw a dead person. I was about to run away when I heard someone talking at the door. , I thought I would hide it first and watch the excitement."
"I just want to watch the fun!" The man couldn't help but emphasize.
"Who are you bluffing? With your skills, you can escape through the window when you hear us at the door." Qin Feng pointed out the problem and looked at him warily.
"No! You don't understand me! I really want to watch the excitement!"
"Let me ask you," Wei Xi interrupted the two people who were about to quarrel again, "you were able to hide for so long just now, why didn't you hide in the inn?"
"Ah?" Qin Feng looked confused.
The man was interrupted and his mind was a little stuck, "I...just let me think about it."
"At that time, I felt that something was staring at me from behind, and I got caught in a hurry."
Hearing what he said, Wei Xi and Qin Feng were confused.
However, this matter still had to be investigated by Wan Jian Sect and Huai Xin Sect. Wei Xi recited the sect rules silently in his mind.
"Where did you put her mother-of-pearl?"
"In the lapel," the man said a little embarrassed, "I was just taking advantage of others. It's an occupational disease."
Qin Feng rolled his eyes and used a free hand to turn over his flower bud. After touching it twice, he found it.
She also figured out Wei Xi's intention. It would be uncontrollable to bring Hu Qin's thief back. Elder Shi Que's affairs were not the two young monks' business. If it weren't for Master Han's entrustment, she and Wei Xi would not be able to control it. Will not be involved.
Although Qin Feng scorned the Qingcheng sect's rule of life-saving, her dangerous tactics were for potential benefits. If Shi Jue was dying and told whoever caught the murderer to pass on his spirit sword to him, Qin Feng would definitely take this thief back and swear to God that he would witness this person kill Elder Shi.
What a pity, Qin Feng let go of Mao Thief, who quickly moved away from Qin Feng and moved his arms.
He stood up straight, and Wei Xi realized that this thief was a little taller than Qin Feng. He was probably drawing a strip. His body was not that of a strong man, and he was probably only thirteen or fourteen years old.
"You said you wanted Huadian, but I thought you wanted my life after chasing me for so long." He moved his arms and complained.
Wei Xi and Qin Feng didn't want to talk to him and were about to leave the fire alley when they heard a loud noise.
"What's wrong!" Mao Thief rushed to the two of them, and Wei Xi and Qin Feng turned their heads back to find out.
There was an explosion on the main street where the float parade had just been held. Flames shot into the sky, the crowd was frightened, and the cries and screams could be heard far away.
"This size... could it be a monk?" Mao Thief glanced at Wei Xi in shock. After all, this little girl looked sinister, much like someone who set fire to the street.
"Don't talk nonsense there," Qin Feng interrupted, "There is gunpowder in the military camp, which can achieve the same effect."
Wei Xi didn't know what gunpowder was, but Qin Feng was well-informed, so his words were certainly not groundless.
"I'm afraid Senior Sister Fan will be anxious if something happens. Can we go back?" Wei Xi looked at Qin Feng and said, who nodded.
"Alas, alas," the thief quickly stopped Wei Xi, "Can you take me out? I'll probably set up defenses later!"
"No," Wei Xi refused, "If you can hide for so long, you can naturally bypass the defense."
The man scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly, "I've finished using it today, and I can't hide it now."
Qin Feng definitely didn't want to worry about him anymore, so he led Wei Xi to the inn, and the thief followed the two of them shamelessly.
People on the street had different faces, but they were all in a hurry. Some were crying, some were injured, and some were carrying buckets and basins to put out the fire.
But Wei Xi, who had sharp eyes, saw soldiers arresting Ju people. Although the two of them were wearing Taoist robes, they looked like Ju people. In order not to cause trouble, Wei Xi and Qin Feng turned into the small village at the same time. Alley.
"It looks like they are arresting people from the Ju Kingdom," Qin Feng said in a low voice, "I heard from my parents that Baoxiang City has been acting as a wall between the Boluo Kingdom and the Ju Kingdom. I can't guarantee that they are not taking this opportunity to cause trouble."
Wei Xi glanced at the thief who had followed them into the alley, and quickly told Qin Feng, "I bought two clothes yesterday, put them on and went back to the inn."
Hearing this, Qin Feng went to touch his Qiankun bag, but couldn't find it.
"Are you looking for this?" Mao Thief held up Qin Feng's Qiankun Bag and smiled proudly.
"If you can't open it, the Qiankun Bag will claim its owner." Qin Feng directly pulled out the sword from its scabbard and prepared to kill this barbarian thief.
"Do you know what a habitual thief is?" The thief said with a smile on his face, "I take out something and you will know."
After saying that, Wei Xi and Qin Feng watched helplessly as Mao Thief pressed his hand on the Qiankun Bag, and then his hand disappeared.
Before they could react, Mao Thief took out a box from the Qiankun Bag.
"How about it? If you want your things back, take me to bypass the defense!"
Listening to the footsteps outside the alley, Qin Feng gritted his teeth and rushed forward. The two fought each other. Wei Xi knew that now was not the time to fight, so he rushed in to start a fight.
Unexpectedly, something unfortunate happened. With a click, the box that Master Han ordered not to be opened was opened.
