Chapter 564: Stolen Goods
"What they say...... We are under the throne of the King of the Mirror Sea. After saying these few words, he saw a flash of light in Ning Xiaoxian's eyes, "Later, the monks spoke to this black shadow for a while, and it seemed that they couldn't get along, and the black shadow became angry, and the river began to flood. The monks also wielded their weapons and prepared for war. We were not far from the river, and we were afraid of being affected by the battle, so we didn't listen to it anymore, and hurried away. "Although there are masters in the caravan, his purpose has always been that more is better than less.
Ning Xiaoxian nodded, knowing that there was nothing wrong with the whistle. As long as the business person is safe, the most taboo is curiosity. Sending things to the end safely as he did is the goal.
At this time, the shopkeeper also served a few things, including "live beads" baked just right, and a plate of donkey meat.
The so-called live beads, in fact, are hairy eggs, eggs have been hatched for more than ten days has formed life, the eggshell has just had the traces of heads, wings, feet, but there is no prototype of the whole chicken. At this time, the hairy eggs are taken to cold water and cooked slowly, and then baked for a period of time to dip some flavors to eat, the chicken that has not yet hatched is extremely tender, the soup is sweet, and has the function of curing headaches, migraines, head madness and limb madness, it is the favorite food of many gourmets. However, the key to this dim sum is to choose the eggs and control the baking time.
Ning Xiaoxian looked at the egg, smiled, and didn't eat it. This was the first time she had come across a food she didn't want to eat.
The whistle didn't care, and continued: "We have been walking for a while, and we have seen many rich gentry and monks giving money to help the victims. He also organized young and middle-aged laborers to repair roads, bridges, and embankments that had been washed away by the flood, and it was actually under the banner of the Jinghai Palace! The local immortal sect did not care, as if they felt that they were wronged and were willing to work thanklessly to help with these things. It couldn't be better. ”
That's a lot of fun. She held her chin and said: "The jurisdiction of the Huangfu family is on the shore of the Mirror Sea, what did he do when he sent people to the southern states to show goodwill to the civilians?
After all, there are too many wonders in this palace. She was not surprised, and immediately left this matter without thinking deeply. But as she was about to speak again, the shadows on the ground trembled. Then a Diyin messenger came out, made a gesture to Ning Xiaoxian, and then spoke in the accent of the shopkeeper Yang of the Zhongjing Branch of Ning Yuan Hall: "The big thing of the owner is not good, the 100,000 catties of spirit tea that was only sent to the warehouse of the medicine ginseng store today." Just been robbed!"
Shopkeeper Yang was anxious. The volume inevitably increased, and as soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent. Fortunately, Shopkeeper Yang also knew that the matter was big, and he was anxious in his heart, and his speech was as smooth and concise as possible, Ning Xiaoxian nodded secretly in his heart when he heard it, it seems that Ning Yu's selection and employment are still of some level.
The caravan led by the whistle only entered Zhongjing this morning and transported the last batch of spiritual tea into the warehouse of Ning Ji Yao Shen and sealed it. As a result, after Fang Caining and Ning Xiaoxian left the inner city, a group of masked black-clothed people came in through the back door of the medicine ginseng store. Knocked over seven guards and carried the tea through the back door. The strong man and the handicraft are extraordinary, and the few guards who have cultivated their bodies were actually beaten down in a few face-to-face efforts.
Shopkeeper Yang continued: "Except for the spiritual tea, there are no other things in the warehouse. I informed the guards at the inn that they had gone to track them down. Also, whether to report this matter to the official or not, please decide!"
The meaning of these three sentences of his is different. First of all, the purpose of the robbers was very clear, and they were very clear about the amount of spiritual tea and the situation inside the Ning Ji Medicine Ginseng Practice, otherwise how could they move so neatly? There are many good trackers among the monsters, and she can relax a little, and the third is a request on whether to make a big deal out of it.
Due to the imminent holding of the Bai Yujing Sale, Zhongjing is now heavily guarded, and in this case, the Ningji Treasury in the inner city was stolen, which is equivalent to a resounding slap in the face of the Supervision Bureau. But the news is bound to leak out like this, and the faces of Yinliu and Ning Yuantang will be lost in front of the majority of immortal cultivators.
As a result, Ning Xiaoxian frowned slightly, and ordered the Earth Yin messenger to reply: "Don't report to the official!"
Both Whistle and Haruma looked at her. She said in a low voice: "Since these people dare to rob on the cusp of such a storm, it shows that they are completely sure that they will not be caught by the Supervision Bureau." Maybe they still want us to report to the official, so that Yinliu and Ning Yuantang will be greatly embarrassed in the world. ”
She thought for a moment, summoned another messenger and whispered a few words to it. As soon as the imp disappeared into the ground, she immediately stood up and said, "Come back quickly." He threw a silver bar on the table and left.
The area of the giant city of Zhongjing was too large, even if the place where they ate was very close to the inner city, with the feet of the blue-water golden-eyed beast, it took more than half an hour to reach Ning Ji's medicine ginseng shop. Shopkeeper Yang has gathered all the men and guards here and left them in the wing, but the scene of the theft and fight is intact, waiting for the owner to come and inspect it. Since Ning Xiaoxian said that he would not report to the official, he closed the front and rear courtyard doors tightly, and even if the neighbors heard the wind and grass earlier, they could not spy on it.
The front yard of the medicine store sells odd medicines, and the back yard has a very spacious door and a large yard - this is all for the convenience of loading and unloading, in addition to the heavy warehouse space, there are also a number of wings where the men and guards live. Several powerful enchantments are set up outside the door of the warehouse, which not only has an anti-theft effect, but also alarms Shopkeeper Yang and others when it is broken. At this moment, of course, the door of the warehouse has been opened, except for the disappearance of all the spiritual tea, the other things inside are still basically neat, it seems that the robbers also know that the time is precious, so they will not waste time on rummaging through the cabinets.
Of the seven guards, four were wounded, one of them was seriously wounded, but they also managed to kill one enemy. According to them, the bandits' attack was lightning fast, and it only lasted about a dozen breaths, and all seven people on their side were put down. The most seriously injured guard reluctantly spoke: "Something is wrong, I just feel that when I am facing the enemy, my supernatural powers cannot be completely used." ”
Ning Xiaoxian's expression moved, he pulled his wrist vein, and crossed over to the divine power to probe carefully in his body, before he suddenly said: "Your intuition is right, it is indeed the young deer scattered." This medicine is not easy to refine, colorless and tasteless, and only works on humans, but monks are also easy to be plotted unconsciously, and after being poisoned, the body is like a newborn deer, and even the strength is not strong enough to make it out, and the power of the supernatural power is also sharply reduced. Her face sank, "There is only one thing: the deer scatter does not spread through the air, but can only go down in water and food." There are spies among you. ”
When she said this, everyone was not surprised. After all, some people with some brains can guess that the gang of robbers knows everything about the structure and personnel of the medicine ginseng business, and there must be an internal ghost who is causing trouble, and now the internal ghost is giving everyone medicine? However, it is one thing to know, and it is another thing to be able to find out this person.
Now all the guys and guards in the medicine ginseng shop were gathered in a side room, and Ning Xiaoxian swept his eyes in front of everyone one by one. She used her supernatural powers, and everyone felt that her eyes were full of divine light, staring at her face like a pinprick, and she couldn't help but hang her head, and only heard her in her ears: "Who made tonight's spiritual tea?"
A guy in the crowd knelt on the ground with a "plop".
Now that the weather is getting colder, the first snow in Zhongjing has already fallen, and no matter how warm it is in this room, it is just a pot of charcoal. But this guy was already scared into a cold sweat, and he couldn't say in a trembling voice: "It's me...... But I never drugged the tea, I haven't even heard of the name of that medicine!"
Everyone immediately understood. Unlike mortals, monks don't think about eating, so they don't necessarily eat these three meals a day, and some monks who are proficient in the way of bigu can go without food for half a year. There's only one way to make sure all the guards are left with the deer, and that's to poison what they're all going to eat and drink.
And Ning Kee, like all large chambers of commerce, in addition to paying salaries to hired monks, will also give a little benefit from time to time. For example, the refinery may give out some fire essence charcoal stones to employees, and the employees of the cloth shop can easily get discounted or simply free cloth. Ning Ji medicine ginseng is to make two pots of spiritual tea for the guards on duty every three days. No one in the whole continent doesn't need this thing, but Ning Ji himself started by selling this, so the cost of making such a little spiritual tea for the guards is actually very low.
Indeed, only by scattering the young deer in the spirit tea will all the guards be poisoned. Because the guards have become accustomed to practicing for a period of time after drinking tea, and the spiritual effect will be fully exerted.
Everyone looked at the guy like a dead man. Ning Xiaoxian walked up to him in two steps and asked in a harmonious voice, "Do you have any last words?"
This guy is just a mortal, and no one thinks that the bandits will let him know more about it. When he heard this, he knew that his time of death was near, and he did not know how to justify it, and his body trembled like chaff, and his upper and lower teeth fought for a while, and he could not say a word.
Ning Xiaoxian sighed and said, "It seems that there is no more." Then he stretched out his leg and kicked-
It was a guard next to the guy who was aiming at it. This person still had a wound on his arm, where would he prevent her from suddenly attacking, only to hear a click, a sudden sharp pain in his legs, and his body immediately leaned forward and staggered. He was startled, and was about to summon the magic weapon, but he knew that the other party's slender fingers suddenly stretched out lightly and dexterously, and he watched it, but he couldn't dodge. (To be continued......)
