Chapter 329
There are very few people on the streets of Xinghuo City. Due to the curfew, they will all go back to work and rest early when this point is approaching.

Xiao Xiaodou walked all the way to the poor area, because only there, he would not be recognized.

Most of the top executives of the Xiao family are wanted by the city lord's mansion, and he is too fond of research and doesn't like to show up, so he is not wanted in Xinghuo City.

Otherwise, he would not have come to the impoverished area, or he would have been arrested on the spot if he made a report.

He doesn't like to show his face, but he has shown up a few times in relatively lively areas. If he keeps wandering there, he will inevitably be recognized.

Although the patrolling in this area is a little weaker than other areas, most people are more afraid of being arrested, so there are not many pedestrians on the street.

After comparing many pros and cons, he chose this area.

At this time, he had already walked into the alley at the edge, sat against the wall, and waited for the night to come.

"You should have discovered that the secret passage is blocked, but Xiaodou hopes that you don't come to look for me,"

Xiao Xiaodou raised his head and quietly looked at the dusk in the sky between the two rooms.
Before resting for a while, there were hurried footsteps outside the alley, and the clear sound of weapons colliding, getting closer, and then a voice came.

"Follow! Catch that thief,"

Xiao Xiaodou immediately stood up, his heart beating faster, and without thinking about it, he immediately ran in the opposite direction.

At the same time, there was the sound of light footsteps on the beams beside the house.

"Hey, why are you running away, little boy, maybe you have committed something too,"

The woman's chuckle sounded into her ears, Xiao Xiaodou glanced at it, saw that it was a figure in black, and looked away.

When he reached the corner, he turned around resolutely, keeping as far away from the thief as possible.

"It's unlucky," Xiao Xiaodou was speechless.

"Stop!" In vain, a beam of light arrows shot through the thief's arm.

"Uh!"

The piercing pain caused the thief's hand to soften, and a box in his hand was thrown flying.

"Damn it!" The thief glanced back, seeing that it was too late to pick it up, he had no choice but to jump out of the city.

"The treasure box has been dropped, I'm going to hunt down the thief, everyone search immediately, don't miss any corner!"

"As ordered!"

Xiao Xiaodou, who was running fast, still held a treasure box in his hand.

Looking at the combination lock with multiple patterns on it, he smiled.

"Destroy my Xiao family, and dare to use the lock invented by my sister,"

Xiao Xiaodou moved his fingers quickly, and within ten breaths he cracked it instantly.

"Only ten locks of this type were made, but I can hardly remember the ten locks. How many times have I unlocked them?"

He opened the treasure box and saw a jade bottle inside.

"Put it in the treasure box, it shouldn't be any rubbish,"

Xiao Xiaodou put the jade bottle in his arms, then took out the stinky bag from his arms, crushed it and put it into the box, then closed the lid and quickly restored the lock on the treasure box.

"The people of the City Lord's Mansion, although I can't hurt them now, but they can be disgusting and disgusting,"

Xiao Xiaodou was about to leave anywhere, but two people suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Boy, hand over that box, it's beyond your control!"

"Looks like you didn't recognize me,"

He took a breath, put the treasure box on the ground tremblingly, and backed away slowly: "Here you are, don't kill me."

"Naturally." The corner of the mouth of one of them rose, and he stomped fiercely with a big knife in his hand.

"Damn it!" Xiao Xiaodou's heart clicked, and he turned and ran.

"Stop! Zhao Hu, you are just an ordinary child, don't do unnecessary things, don't do too much,"

"Hmph!" Zhao Hu stopped by the box, and withdrew the knife in his hand.

After a while, the treasure box was quickly returned to the city lord.

In the meeting room, the two sat facing each other, both cross-legged on futons, with two cups of light tea placed on the table above their stomachs.

There is also a small incense burner, the space is filled with white smoke, but it is not choking, but has a refreshing feeling.

Zhao Yu put the treasure box on the table: "Brother, your body strengthening pill has been sent back to you, but it's a pity that the thief's whereabouts are unknown,"

"Wait for me to fix my face, hmph!" The monk in white touched the wound on his face, with an angry look in his eyes, he was actually hurt by a child.

The monk in white picked up the box and looked at it, then put it back on the seat: "This box is exquisite."

"This was built by the Xiao family back then. It's hard to buy with a thousand dollars. I'm afraid there are only ten pieces in this world." Zhao Yu touched his goatee with a smile.

"Even if it is hard to buy, the actual effect is not as good as the elixir inside," the white-clothed monk responded.

"That's natural. The treasure box is only valuable for collection, so it can't be compared with the pill." Zhao Yu took out the blueprint from his arms, and deciphered the patterns on it one by one according to the analysis.

"If it's an ordinary box, I'll smash it into pieces with one palm. You are very precious to this box,"

The monk in white picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and quietly looked at the treasure box in front of him. He always had a bad feeling.

But nothing in such a small place could threaten him, out of such trust, he sat without saying anything.

"Crack!"

"Open!" Zhao Yuxi said.

A stench came from inside immediately, several times worse than the cesspit, the smell spread rapidly, and the room that was originally white smoke was suddenly dyed yellow smoke.

"boom!"

The monk in white shattered the gate with his palm and jumped out.

The city lord, Zhao Yu, covered his mouth and nose and walked out, watching closely the many subordinates who came because of the sound.

He put down his hands on his nose and mouth, and shouted: "Who has this box passed through, check it for me! Send them all over!"

"As ordered!"

Then Zhao Yu took a cautious look at the monk in white, and seeing his ugly face, he shouted everyone away.

"This kind of treasure box should be difficult to crack," the white-clothed monk said.

"That's right," Zhao Yu nodded.

"Who can crack it in a short time without relying on blueprints?"

Zhao Yu frowned: "If we talk about a short period of time, only its founder, Miss Xiao Jia, Xiao Yunqian is here,"

The monk in white waved his hand after hearing the words: "It can't be her, she ran away alone, and was killed by my senior brother,"

"That seems to be the remnants of the Xiao family," Zhao Yu said with his eyes fixed.

"Report!" A person came from outside the courtyard, bowed his head in front of the two of them with fists folded.

"Say,"

"Report to the city lord, the box passed not only my hand, but also a child's hand, and that child had been exposed to the treasure box in a poor area,"

The friar in white took a deep breath: "Child, child, another child! It seems to be him, and he should have thrown the hidden weapon today,"

"I'll go with you, you lead the way,"

"As ordered!"

At the same time, Xiao Xiaodou hid in the rich businessmen's area, where most of the people were doing business. He knew that the original area could not stay and had to be moved, so he came here.

At this time, Lin Xi and Xiao Yunqian had moved to the river in the center of Starfire City.

"Based on what I know about Xiaodou, if there are no accidents, he should be hiding in the impoverished area at this time. Let's send him back first to avoid any accidents," Xiao Yunqian said.
