Wuyang City.
At noon, the sun is shining brightly.
The streets are crowded with pedestrians and vehicles, and are lined with various shops, inns, and pubs...
Wuyang City was originally a place of crouching tigers, hidden dragons, but with the embroidery theft case, it became even more turbulent.
The Nanwang Mansion where the Eighteen Dendrobium Pearls were stolen is located in Wuyang City. The peerless swordsman Ye Gucheng is the master of the Crown Prince of Nanwang Mansion. Hua Manlou is also a guest at Nanwang Mansion. In addition, Jin Jiuling, the best catcher of the six gates, and Jin Jiuling, who were arrested not long ago Lu Xiaofeng and Xue Bing came to investigate the case...
Wuyang City is really lively.
So Yu Liancheng couldn't help but come to join in the fun.
"Is this Wuyang City?" Shangguan Xue'er, the half-disciple, was also following Yu Liancheng like a tail. Originally, he wanted to send this girl away casually. But she persisted and had her own set of myths.
"I am your half-disciple. I haven't learned half of your skills. How can I be embarrassed to become a disciple?"
"Besides, our Shangguan family's property has been handed over to you, so you are naturally responsible for us."
Fortunately, this girl is a very smart girl. Although her chirping sometimes makes her a little annoying, having her around can relieve her boredom. Yu Liancheng didn't refuse even if she offered her a hand.
"Yes, this is Wuyang City." Yu Liancheng nodded.
“I heard the food here is the most famous.”
"You have eaten?"
"I haven't eaten it, but I heard from my sister that there are some of the most delicious things here."
"You want to hear it?"
“Big Skirt Wings from Dasanyuan, Baihua Chicken from Wenyuan, Dinghu Shangsu from West Garden, Boiled Conch Slices from South Garden…”
Shangguan Xueer only said three or four things before she couldn't continue because her saliva was almost flowing out. Although she belongs to the royal family of the Great Jinpeng Dynasty, the Jinpeng Dynasty has fallen and her life was not rich since she was a child.
Yu Liancheng smiled and said, "Okay, let's have a good meal today."
There is no doubt that he also likes to eat.
First-class food is always irresistible.
Fortunately, he is a rich man, so no matter what he wants to eat, even if it is the royal meal in the palace, he can easily eat it.
Shangguan Xueer was still a child after all. Before she ate the big dumpling wings, flower chicken, Dinghu Shangsu, and boiled conch slices, she was already attracted by the monkey performer.
Children all like to watch this kind of monkey show. When the monkey performer beats the gongs and drums, children from the whole street gather around.
An old man with gray hair and a cane staggered into a medicine shop and was almost knocked down by two children.
Although Yu Liancheng is not a good person, he will not refuse if he can help others by extending his hand. He immediately helped the old man and said with a smile: "Old sir, you are good to go."
The white-haired old man was bent over and panting. Suddenly he raised his head and winked at Yu Liancheng, stuck out his tongue, made a face, and almost stared at Yu Liancheng.
Although there are many old men in the world who love to play and have a childish heart, this man in front of him is obviously not one of them.
Yu Liancheng has recognized him.
——Sikong reaches for the stars!
This old man was originally disguised as Sikong Zhaixing, the "King of Thieves".
Yu Liancheng stretched out his hand, and like lightning, he grabbed his shoulder: "Good boy, you have the patience to steal my jade token again."
Sikong Zhaixing nodded, then shook his head.
Yu Liancheng said: "What do you mean when you nod and shake your head?"
Sikong Zhaixing said: "What I mean is that you are only half right?"
Yuliancheng said: "Oh?"
Sikong Zhaixing said: "I did come to steal your brand, but the reason is for your own good."
Yu Liancheng became interested: "For my own good?"
"Not bad!" Sikong Zhaixing nodded and said earnestly: "Young boy Yu, you solved the case of the Jinpeng Dynasty, defeated Ximen Chuixue, shaved Lu Xiaofeng's beard, and accomplished several major things in a row. You must be extremely proud. . And the more complacent a person is, the easier it is to suffer a loss. If I steal your brand and let you be fooled and frustrated, you will not be arrogant and will not suffer a loss."
Yu Liancheng almost laughed out of anger: "I didn't expect that after I haven't seen you for a while, your ability to talk nonsense has become better."
Sikong Zhaixing shook his head and said, "Because I was telling the truth."
Yu Liancheng said: "But your theft plan this time is a bit simpler. You disguised yourself as an old man and joined in."
Sikong Zhaixing said: "The first two plans to steal jade tokens failed, which made me understand something. The more plans there are, the more loopholes there are. So my plan this time is very simple, and naturally there are no loopholes."
"Yes, sudden things like this are often the most unexpected." Yu Liancheng nodded with deep understanding: "But why did you deliberately expose the secret in the end?"
Sikong Zhaixing said: "I said, this time I am not trying to steal your jade token, I just want you not to be complacent. Now that I have reminded you, there is no need to steal your jade token again."
"So you really do it for my own good." Yu Liancheng's hand couldn't help but loosen a little.
"Of course..." Sikong Zhaixing suddenly opened Yu Liancheng's hand and did three somersaults in a row. He was already on the roof: "I lied to you."
After saying this, he waved to Yu Liancheng, holding a jade plaque in his hand. He flashed and disappeared, as if by magic.
"Half master, who was that person just now?" Seeing that something was wrong, Xueer came over.
Yu Liancheng smiled lightly and said: "He is a thief who steals jade tokens."
"Sikong Zhaixing? Did he steal your brand?" Shangguan Xueer immediately reacted. Sikong Zhaixing lost to Yu Liancheng twice, which is no secret in the world.
Yu Liancheng nodded: "I stole it."
Shangguan Xueer said hurriedly: "Then let's not chase him."
"No hurry, no rush." Yu Liancheng smiled and said: "That kid fell into my hands twice before. This time he came to me blatantly. He must be fully prepared to escape. Even if I can catch him, I'm afraid It would be a huge waste of time and effort. What’s more, although he stole the jade token, he didn’t really steal it.”
"Ah?" Shangguan Xueer blinked, her little head not understanding half of what her master meant.
Yuliancheng said: "Are you still watching the monkey show?"
Shangguan Xueer shook her head: "I won't watch it anymore. There are all the same monkey shows in the world. It's boring to watch too many."
"Yeah, there are only so many tricks in the world, and it's really boring to play around." Yu Liancheng turned around and left: "If you have this time, why not try the big three yuan's big skirt wings."
"Okay!" Shangguan Xueer jumped up and followed Yu Liancheng.
She was full of confidence in the half-master. Since he didn't care about the jade card being stolen, it proved that he either had a way to easily get the Rakshasa card back, or it proved that the Rakshasa card... was fake.
