How to break the trumpet of Yunlu dressed as your own after a good night's sleep

Chapter 40 Playing Gods and Playing Ghosts

Early the next morning, Jue Ming yelled in the backyard: "Damn it, I'm on my medicine! Why are my medicines gone!"

From the backyard to the front yard, I rummaged around. It was the medicine that I had so hard to get. Cassia was a little crazy. Qi often goes there, and they won't lose it if they look at it. Why does it disappear after sleeping all night?

"Xiao Qi, do you think who moved that medicine box?" Jue Ming knelt on the ground and asked Xiao Qi, almost crying, my medicine, my medicine!

Xiaoqi shook her head, expressing that she didn't know.

Mu Nan came out yawning, stretched his waist and asked, "What's wrong?"

Caesar jumped up and roared, "Medicine! Medicine!"

Mu Nan was at a loss: "Cheke is making trouble?"

"Master, my herbs are gone!" Jue Ming showed him the medicine box, "Everything else is there, except for two valuable ones, which must have been stolen!"

"Come on, who has the guts to come here to steal things." Just as Mu Nan wanted to deny it, he remembered what Shen Heyu said last night. Shen Heyu kept saying that there were people in the backyard, not ghosts, but people...

"What's wrong? Talk?" Seeing that Mu Nan was suddenly in a daze, Jue Ming couldn't help but touch him.

Mu Nan thought for a while and said, "There was someone in the backyard last night, I saw it."

"Ah? If you didn't say it earlier, it must be a thief."

"I feel sorry for you... ouch, I was scared to death." Mu Nan touched his chest, and Shen Heyu suddenly jumped out. Just now he was on... the roof?

"I went up to take a look. Although it wasn't obvious, there were traces of being stepped on the roof. It's very good to come here, but... are you just here to steal something?" Shen Heyu frowned again, "This is the one who spread the haunted rumors. People, what is the purpose... let's go, let's go out and ask."

Shen Heyu walked towards the front yard, Mu Nan Jueming hurriedly followed, and Mu Nan asked, "What are you going out to ask?"

"Ask who has lost something."

In the past few days, people in the town have been in a state of panic, talking about hauntings. Naturally, they don't pay much attention to the news of someone who has lost something and reported it to the police. After asking around, they really asked something.

The three sat in the teahouse and exchanged information.

"Master Lin in the west of the town lost a glass cup. It is said that he bought it at a high price from Haishi. He usually doesn't want to use it. A few days ago, a thief stole it from his home."

"Mr. Zhang lost a night pearl. Mr. Wang's family lost a copper coin. He himself said that this copper coin was used by his ancestors to protect his family's town house. After losing it, he was in a hurry at home."

"By the way, the very valuable embroidery from Su Xiuniang's house is gone."

"Is that Han Yuqing a good picture?"

"That's right!"

"Damn it, I lost it. I heard that it's worth a fortune. Su Xiuniang plans to leave it to her daughter."

Listening to the news from Mu Nan and Jueming, Shen Heyu probably had an idea in his heart, and it turned out to be similar to what he guessed.

"When you asked, I went to find out where the news of the haunting came from. The watchman who responded the most was the watchman in the west of the town. After that, Baihua Lane, Liulin Lane, and Qianshui Lane in the north of the town. It was reported that someone saw a ghost with their own eyes."

Jue Ming suddenly understood something: "Isn't Zhang Yuanwai living in Qianshui Lane?"

"That's right." Shen Heyu nodded, "Su Xiuniang lives in Baihua Lane, Lin's Mansion is in the west of the town, and Wang's Mansion is in front of Liulin Lane. Some precious objects have been lost in these places, and at the same time there are reports of ghosts. Last night Mu Nan saw someone in the backyard, and you happened to lose two more precious herbs."

"That means someone stole something, but why did he pretend to be a ghost?" Mu Nan was a little puzzled, "If you steal, you steal. What good does pretending to be a ghost do? I haven't heard of any burglar pretending to be a ghost to steal."

"This at least proves that there is no real ghost. The people in the town finally don't have to go home early to hide, but it's true. Didn't Shen Heyu say that this person is good at lightness kung fu, and just leave as soon as he steals it. Why do you pretend to be a ghost?"

Shen Heyu didn't quite understand either, it really only proved that the haunted rumors were man-made, but why did he steal and spread the haunted rumors at the same time?To keep people from focusing on what was lost?

"I can't figure this out either. With this person's level of lightness kung fu, he can escape completely. It's like this person deliberately let people see his traces. Maybe he stole something on purpose to let people see him, and then disappeared quickly, causing a haunted scene. Illusion."

A thief who likes to pretend to be a ghost?It's a bit interesting, Mu Nan thinks it's not a ghost but a thief, it's better than letting him catch a ghost, so the next step is to catch the thief?

"Then how do we catch him? Cassia's medicine is still in his hands."

"That's right." Jue Ming thought that he couldn't push him any more, he was thrown out because of the broken medicine, and if he threw away the medicine, the senior brother wouldn't kill him.

Shen Heyu pondered for a while, then said: "Let's find a way to lure him here."

"How?" Mu Nan didn't understand. "Besides, we are talking here in broad daylight. What if he is watching us in the dark? Doesn't he know everything we say?"

"Should I be exaggerating? Our voices are low enough. No matter how small we are, we'd be called sneaky. Besides, I didn't notice anyone else's aura." Jue Ming patted Mu Nan, why are you so brainy.

"What Mu Nan said is not unreasonable, of course we can't be here." Shen Heyu took a sip of tea, put down his teacup and stood up, "Jade, let's go to Bingxin's station together, maybe there will be the herbs you want, that's okay Deal with your senior brother."

The volume of the latter sentence is slightly louder.

Jueming was stunned, huh?Bing Xin station?

"Brother Jueming, why are you here? The book from last time...huh?" Seeing Jueming coming, Ji Xingchuan jumped out to greet him, only to find that there were two people behind him.

"I have something else to do today, these two are Shen Heyu and Mu Nan." Jue Ming winked at Xingchuan, it's just the two of them, you know.

"Oh~~~Welcome both of you~" Xingchuan deliberately prolonged his voice, very mischievously, "Sit down, I'll pour tea."

The girl's probing gaze was too strange, Mu Nan rubbed his head, not knowing why.

After a while, Xingchuan came with a tea set: "Senior brother, what's the matter?"

"It's like this. Miss Ji needs help with something." Shen Heyu said.

"I can only see a doctor, why do you want me to help?" Xing Chuan tilted his head and asked.

"I believe Miss Ji has heard the rumors in the town. Today we found out that the haunted rumors are man-made. In fact, the big families in the town have lost some rare treasures. This thief is very skilled and powerful, and he comes and goes without a trace. We want to set up a trap , and lead him to come."

"I know this, how can I help?"

"Go arrange a family and spread the news that they have some kind of rare treasure in their hands. If this thief is interested, he will definitely go there. We will wait there to catch the turtle. He has been to our residence, so he must know We want to investigate this matter, so it is inconvenient for us to come forward to arrange the details, and we have to ask Miss Ji to find people and spread the news, and we have to do it more covertly."

In this way, Mu Nan and Jue Ming also understood, indeed, the thief was in a hidden place, and he didn't know where he was, so it was a trick to lure fish into the bait, and it was much better than arresting people all over the town.

"Ah, I see, it's ok, but what kind of baby would he take the bait for?"

Hey, it's useless to have a name for someone else's idea, it's best to have the real thing.

"This...Miss Ji, let's do whatever I want." Shen Heyu didn't think of the name of any treasure for a while, but there are so many treasures, just use any one, as long as someone takes the bait.

"What is the cup that keeps pouring out wine, the jade for body protection, and the treasure map? This storybook is often written, hahaha." Mu Nan thought about it on the sidelines.

Shen Heyu looked at Mu Nan, and suddenly remembered something.

"Munan, did you bring your soy sauce bottle?"

"Soy sauce bottle?"

Mudu Town, restaurant.

"Boss Li, you haven't come for a long time? Please come inside."

"Serve as usual."

"Okay~" the shopkeeper of the hotel ordered, and then came to pour Boss Li a drink, "Boss Li has been doing voice work recently, but he hasn't been back for a long time."

"I went to Liuyundu, there are a lot of treasures there." Boss Li took a sip of his wine and chatted with the shopkeeper very interestedly, "I came back this time and brought a lot of treasures. There is a mutton jade bottle. It’s pouring, the water will never end, I will sell it to Xiling in a few days, and I can make a fortune.”

I wanted to see the shopkeeper's envious and surprised expression, but unexpectedly the shopkeeper said in a panicked voice: "Boss Li, don't talk about this, the town is not peaceful recently, it is haunted and thieves. Steal these rare treasures, you can take a good look at them."

"There are so many things going on in the town recently. Tell me about the haunting."

"Well, let's start from the past few days..."

……

When Boss Li returned home, he remembered the rumors the shopkeeper had told him, and went to look at the secret compartment where the suet bottle was kept.

In the middle of the night, a figure appeared under the back wall of Boss Li's house. He looked around and saw that no one jumped over the wall and landed lightly in the courtyard without making a sound.

Except for the guard at the front door, there was almost no one in the courtyard. He went all the way to the room where the suet bottle was placed, opened the door and felt the hidden compartment with ease, twisted the mechanism, and the suet bottle was inside.

He put the suet bottle in his arms, pushed back the hidden compartment and was about to go back the same way, but someone in the house actually stopped him.

"Want to leave after coming? It's not that easy." Mu Nan stopped the snitch at the door of the room with a staff in his hand.

The snitch smiled, and said, "I knew there would be an ambush, so if I dared to come, I would be able to escape completely." Talking about something slipping out of the sleeve, it rolled on the ground and instantly billowed with thick smoke.

"Damn, I still have a cough cough." Mu Nan was choked to the point of tears, and didn't care about being handsome at all.

The Snitch had already taken advantage of his kung fu to get out and leaped onto the roof to prepare to run away.

Jue Ming had been waiting outside, when he saw the Snitch come out, he used his lightness kung fu to keep up: "The little thief returned my herbs."

Relying on his lightness skills, the Snitch turned around and provoked Jue Ming: "Take it back if you have the ability, or else it will be mine. If you don't keep the holy medicine for healing well, don't blame me if it was stolen in the yard."

"You!" Jueming has never seen such a shameless thief, you stole my things and blamed me for not putting them away?Immediately, he threw a handful of silver needles forward.

They were all avoided by the Snitch, and the Snitch sneered, leaving Cassia far behind with the power of his feet.

Caesar was so angry that he yelled from behind: "I don't want it anymore, just treat it as a dog."

It's because you can't catch up, my qinggong is not so easy to catch up.The Snitch felt a little complacent, ran outside the town and saw that no one was following him, so he took out the suet bottle to admire it, the tentacles of the suet bottle were warm, and the whole body was crystal clear, it was really a treasure, hey, I made a profit.

The snitch wandered outside for a while before returning to the small hut where he temporarily stayed outside the town, opened the box, and put the suet bottle together with the treasures he had collected earlier.The snitch clapped his hands, ready to rest, today is not a loss, and he played with two people, happy.

Just as he was about to undress and lie down, the door was kicked open.

Shen Heyu smiled outside the door: "Thank you for leading the way."

What about waiting for him here?The snitch didn't have time to think about it, and was about to jump out of the window to escape. Shen Heyu was already prepared, and threw a foot-binding trick to hold him in place.

It's just that the snitch didn't know what kind of kung fu he had practiced, and he was able to break through the magic trick of binding his feet and jump out of the window.

Shen Heyu also quickly followed.

The snitch didn't dare to fight recklessly, and the lightness of escape is better than others, even Shen Heyu's level was left behind by him.

Shen Heyu was careless in his heart. He thought that he deliberately arranged Mu Nan and Jue Ming on the road to confuse him and let him lead the way to find the stolen treasure, and take him down by the way. I didn't expect that the Snitch is so good at lightness kung fu. If he can't catch up today, Wouldn't the hard work of these two days be in vain?

It's not that Shen Heyu didn't catch up, she also caught the Snitch's wrist just now, and for some reason, the Snitch's hand escaped from him in an instant, it was as slippery as if it had been oiled, and it was impossible to grasp it.

The two chased away, and the distance was about [-]. Just when Shen Heyu thought he couldn't catch up, the snitch paused and slowed down. Shen Heyu took the opportunity to put a few pieces of talisman paper and set up a small siege formation, but he didn't know It doesn't matter.

The Snitch seemed to have suffered some kind of injury, clutching his stomach and just stopped in Shen Heyu's formation, Shen Heyu caught up and pulled out a long sword to put it next to the Snitch's neck, at the same time a figure appeared beside the Snitch, Shen Heyu took a closer look, it was still a familiar person .

The ghost patted the snitch's face with the dagger, and said coldly: "We are destined to meet you outside Mudu Town. How does the hidden weapon roll feel?"

The snitch gave him a bitter look, but didn't speak.

Seeing the Snitch ignoring her, the demon was not annoyed, took out the rope, tied him up and kicked him to the side, ignoring the wound on the Snitch's stomach, and cursed: "Damn it, you actually stole Miss Ben's dagger! I can't kill you!"

Shen Heyu stroked his forehead: "Qing Yan, you should be more refined..."

Fang Qingyan cupped his fists at Shen Heyu: "Brother Shen is well."

"Well, Qingyan, did you have something stolen by him too?" Shen Heyu looked over suspiciously, this snitch was really brave enough to steal into the Yaomen sect, no one in the wilderness knows that the Yaomen sect loves money the most Yes, if you steal a penny from them, you will be hunted to the ends of the earth.

"I passed by Longjing Mountain Villa for an overnight stay at the end of last month. The owner invited me to taste tea. I put the dagger that my master gave me in the room. Unexpectedly, it disappeared when I went back. I searched for it for a few days before chasing it. Brother Shen." Damn it, stealing is no good, stealing the dagger that Master gave me is really courting death.

"My friend's belongings were also stolen. This person is very light-hearted. If you hadn't come, I might not have been able to catch him today. By the way, I know where this person hides his things. Let me take you there."

"Okay, what are you looking at! Believe it or not, my old lady will gouge out your eyes!" Fang Qingyan yelled at the Snitch again.

Shen Heyu silently lighted the wax for the snitches in her heart, and it was really...unlucky to steal onto their sprites.

The two dragged the snitch back to the hut. Fang Qingyan retrieved her own dagger, and immediately picked the snitch's tendons. The snitch's face was pale, and he bit his lower lip tightly without screaming.

"I do have a problem." Shen Heyu looked at the Snitch. "If you're stealing, that's fine. Why do you pretend to be a ghost to scare people? The watchman in Zhenxi is still insane."

"Hiss... this... is... interesting." The Snitch spoke intermittently.

Shen Heyu looked at Fang Qingyan expressionlessly: "Pick out your hamstrings too."

let you steal.

Fang Qingyan took the nearly half-disabled snitch directly to the gate of the yamen. Anyway, his hands and feet were disabled, so he just threw it at the gate.

Shen Heyu walked back holding a box of treasures, oh, there was also his family's soy sauce bottle in it.

Mu Nan's eyes were red because of that smoky person, and he blamed Jueming for insisting on squatting in the room, but Jueming retorted that if you intercept him halfway, can you stop him?Mu Nan said that you didn't stop me either!Didn't you succeed in being handsome?The two of them had to fight for handsomeness for a long time and almost pinched each other.

Shen Heyu came back with something, and the two rushed to meet him.

Mu Nan took back his soy sauce bottle, and with trembling hands, Jue Ming dug out his herbal medicine that was not in the shape of grass and was about to crumble into dregs from the box.

"Where is the grandson!"

Shen Heyu felt that the little thief's other Tesuji would not be safe...
