Chapter 053: Thieves
"Is someone really going to steal the coffin?"
At 0:00 a.m., Liu Xing stood on a large banyan tree in front of the Archaeological Research Institute, closely watching the movements of this group of thieves of unknown origin.
There was silence in the building of the Institute of Archaeology, and at this time, in the corridor on the third floor, two sneaky black figures appeared, and they came to the door of the No. 1 archaeological research room and stopped.
"Oda, the coffin of the book I'm going to steal tonight is in this research room. ”
"Is there surveillance in there?"
"The surveillance system was destroyed by us the day before yesterday and completely paralyzed. Time is pressing, you hurry up. ”
"Okay. ”
Took out a black professional lock-picking toolbox, fiddled with the security door of the research room, and after a while, the security door was successfully opened.
Pushing the door in, the research room was pitch black, and when the flashlight shone it, he found a white crystal chest.
"This is the coffin?"
"You can't go wrong. ”
The two looked at the coffin for a while, and after making sure that there was no problem, they immediately took out a walkie-talkie and issued a brief command.
In less than two minutes, eight burly men in black hurried over and walked into the research room.
"The eight of you carry the coffin away now. ”
"Yes. ”
After that, the eight men in black took a large piece of black cloth, wrapped the whole coffin to cover people's eyes and ears, and then lifted the coffin together, slowly walked out of the research room, and then secretly descended down the corridor to the first floor.
"Has the security guard at the door taken care of?"
"It's been settled, the truck is at the west gate. ”
After a few brief exchanges, the eight men in black carried the coffin out of the Institute of Archaeology and left in a hurry along a dark path on the campus of Tianhai University.
Seeing this, Liu Xing, who was standing on the branch, understood the situation, it seems that this group of people in black is here to steal the coffin tonight.
"Who the hell are these people?"
Out of curiosity, Liu Xing jumped down from the tree and began to secretly follow behind the group of thieves.
Leaving the Institute of Archaeology, passing through a patch of grass and bypassing several teaching buildings, Liu Xing followed him all the way to the road outside the west gate of Tianhai University, lurking in a bush at the door.
Looking ahead, I saw a big red truck parked on the road outside the school, and the coffin was carried to the back of the big truck, and then the big door was locked.
It was only then that Liu Xing could see the appearance of this gang of thieves clearly, there were a total of 16 thieves, aged between 16 and 35 years old.
Among them, the thief who was just in charge of opening the security door of the research room was a lean middle-aged man. His name is Tian Xiaoyi, a professional tomb robber in Tianhai City, and the boss of this theft gang.
"I didn't expect the operation to go so smoothly tonight, and the coffin was so easy to get to it!"
"Brother Tian went out in person, so naturally he was able to catch it, and there is nothing in Tianhai City that Brother Tian can't steal!"
"You two don't have to be a sycophant. Tian Xiaoyi's face was calm, and he reminded, "The coffin has not been handed over to the gold owner yet, and you can't be careless before you get the money." ”
"Brother Tian, after finishing this ticket and getting 5 million, should we rest for a while?" asked an obese man.
"Not so soon, I got another deal yesterday. Tian Xiaoyi said, "Someone asked me to steal a novel "Book Tomb Notes", which is currently in the hands of Chairman Wang Tairan of Novel Street, but I don't know where this old guy hid the novel for the time being. Okay, let's do it first. Xiaolin, you and the other brothers go back first, and the fat man and I will send the goods to Lingshan now. ”
"Okay, Brother Tian!"
After the discussion, Tian Xiaoyi took five people to sit in the big red truck, and the other ten people left in another van. After that, the red truck immediately started and hurriedly left with the coffin, preparing to go to Lingshan......
"Lingshan?"
Liu Xing frowned slightly, Lingshan is a barren mountain located in the northern suburbs of Tianhai City, tonight this gang of thieves seems to be going to send the coffin to Lingshan and trade with people, with a bounty of 5 million.
There are still a lot of novels in the coffin, and Liu Xing doesn't want to just watch the coffin being moved.
"Let's go and see. ”
Lingshan is not too far from Tianhai University, and Liu Xing decided to rush to Lingshan in advance to see if there is a chance to snatch the coffin back from this group of thieves.
After making a decision, Liu Xing immediately got up, took light steps, and left in a hurry, after that, he copied a path and went straight to Lingshan in the northern suburbs.
In more than 20 minutes, Liu Xing successfully arrived at his destination, and the mountain road to Lingshan was potholed, the road was not easy to walk, and the speed of the big truck of the thief gang was not fast.
After following for about 3 kilometers in a row, when I was in a wasteland at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, there was a boom, and the big red truck stopped.
This is already the northernmost location of the northern suburbs, far away from residential areas, surrounded by overgrown weeds, deserted, not even street lights, and the light is not very good.
With a flash of figure, Liu Xing dived directly into a piece of grass on the right side of the rear compartment of the big truck and watched the changes.
It was already late at night, and it was surprisingly quiet.
"The coffin is in the bed of a big truck, how do you get it?"
Liu Xing secretly pondered in his heart, at this time, the door of the big truck was opened, and the six thieves led by Tian Xiaoyi jumped out of the truck at the same time.
"Brother Tian, is the place of trading?"
"Yes. ”
Tian Xiaoyi looked at the time, there was still more than an hour before the agreed transaction time, and ordered: "Fatty, you get in the car and check the coffin, and you will be ready to deliver it in a while." ”
"Understood. ”
After saying that, the fat man immediately walked quickly to the direction of the rear compartment of the big truck, took out a key, opened an iron lock, opened a door, and climbed into the rear compartment.
At this time, Liu Xing was only about ten meters away from the carriage.
"Action!"
With his thoughts, Liu Xing suddenly rushed out of the grass, turned into a figure, and in the blink of an eye, he swept more than ten meters, directly entered the rear compartment, raised his hand, and performed the fingering of the "Six Veins Divine Sword", and pointed directly behind the fat man!
"Ahh
A scream rang out from the back compartment, and then fell silent.
"What sound?"
At this time, Tian Xiaoyi, who was standing outside the car, changed his face and shouted loudly: "Fatty, what's wrong?"
Didn't hear a response.
"Let's take a look!"
Tian Xiaoyi realized that the situation was wrong, the fat man seemed to have encountered an ambush in the carriage, touched it in his arms, took a dagger, and walked quickly to the door of the rear compartment of the truck with the other four men, holding a flashlight, and was about to shine into the compartment.
Sou!
Suddenly, a black figure jumped out of the carriage, extremely fast, directly through the two men in black, snapped twice, hit the acupoint on their chests, rolled their eyes, and fainted at the same time.
Facing a flashing black shadow, Tian Xiaoyi's eyes kept and he didn't understand the situation at all: "What...... What's that?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the black figure transformed, suddenly turned back, and swept towards the other two men, the two men took out daggers one after another, and stabbed out, the black figure suddenly changed its route, took a series of strange steps, cleverly dodged, and instantly went around behind the two men, snapped, and at the same time hit the Zhiyang point in the back.
With two clicks, the daggers landed, and the bodies of the two men went limp and fell unconscious.
It was only at this time that Tian Xiaoyi finally saw the outfit of this black figure clearly, the other party was wrapped in black cloth all over his body, and only two small holes were exposed at his eyes, and he couldn't see his appearance at all.
"You...... Who the hell are you?"
Tian Xiaoyi felt a chill in his heart, the black shadow in front of him was elusive and erratic, which was really chilling, "It's good to have something to say...... Well said, don't ...... Don't kill me......"
Before he finished speaking, the black shadow had already passed by him, and with a little finger, Tian Xiaoyi screamed, and immediately fainted and lay on the ground.
After a while, the six tomb robbers led by Tian Xiaoyi had all been subdued, and only the man in black was left in the wasteland.
"Whew-"
Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and finally got it done. Fortunately, there is such a large piece of black cloth in the truck bed, which can be wrapped around the body to hide the appearance, otherwise it is really tricky to move.
After knocking out the six thieves, Liu Xing immediately found two large black backpacks from the truck, and then returned to the back compartment of the truck, preparing to remove all the novels in the coffin.
Liu Xing originally wanted to move the entire book coffin, but the book coffin was too heavy for one person to move. Taking a step back, even if it can be moved, where to bury the coffin is also a big problem.
Therefore, he decided to be simpler and empty the novel in the coffin first.
"Two big backpacks should fit in, right?"
