By the time they returned to the tribe, it was already evening.

As soon as they entered the valley, the witch and the other people in charge came up and asked the thief, "Patriarch, how is it, has the fire been extinguished?"

Ji Thief snorted, and pulled over Ah Zai, who had been absent-minded all the way, and said: "When we arrived, Ah Zai had already extinguished the fire, don't say it, Ah Zai has been doing really well recently." ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and they all opened their mouths to praise Ah Zheng.

"Okay, don't gather around the door, I'm tired of this afternoon's rush, and I can't walk people like dogs. ”

Ji Thief complained.

Tushan poked the thief: "Patriarch, didn't you say that dogs are curses before?"

Ji Thief looked back at him: "yes, what's wrong?"

Tushan said: "Then didn't you scold yourself just now?"

"I..."

"Forget it, I won't talk to you, I don't have that strength. Ji Thief said, and went directly in the direction of the catering department.

In the evening, when everyone had eaten and drunk enough, Ji Thief went to the medical department to see the situation of Usma and Toto, as well as the ordinary people, and talked to Xue for a while before going back to rest.

During this period, Ah Zheng, who returned to his room under the pretext of not being hungry, kept thinking about whether to tell the truth before the thief took the initiative to ask him.

It was this question that tortured him for two hours.

In the end, Ah Zai gritted his teeth hard: "It's a big deal, I'll tell the truth to the patriarch, if the patriarch still refuses to let go of Mulian, I, I just kneel and beg, and I also ask the patriarch to agree." ”

Having made up his mind, Ah Zai pushed open the wooden door and walked out.

As soon as he went out, he ran into Ah Ju, who lived next door, coming back with some food, and when he saw him, he had a surprised expression.

"Ah Zheng, why don't you sleep out this big night?"

The corners of Ah Zai's mouth twitched: "No, it's nothing, that's what, I have something to say to the patriarch." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the food in Ah Ju's hand and couldn't help asking, "What about you, Ah Ju, what are you doing with so much food?"

Ah Ju sighed: "Isn't it that I don't have time to eat during the evening training, I'll go to the catering department to get some, okay, you go quickly, don't wait for the patriarch to fall asleep." ”

Ah Zai nodded and walked straight forward.

Along the way, in addition to Ah Ju, he also met Ah Niu who patrolled, Ah Hu who was on duty at night, and Ah Wei who had just returned after dealing with the tedious affairs of the Ministry of Agriculture.

Every time everyone greeted him, they could surprise him.

Ah Zai himself felt that he was going to be tortured crazy.

Finally came to the thief's residence, and Ah Zai, who was worried about it, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and just when he wanted to go inside, a black shadow flashed next to him, and he grabbed Ah Zai.

He was already a rumor, and he was so frightened that he screamed out all of a sudden, just thinking that the thief had discovered his secret and let people arrest him.

"Shhhh ”

When the familiar voice came into his ears, Ah Zai couldn't help but be stunned, turned his head to look, and saw that it was Tushan: "Tushan, is it you?"

Tushan let go of his hand: "Of course it's me, otherwise it's so late, who else would be here except for the unlucky guy in the patriarch's room?"

Tushan's words confused Ah Zhengdu: "Is there someone in the patriarch's room?"

Tushan nodded: "Yes, isn't that after Ah Liang came back, the patriarch asked him about the fire." ”

The moment he heard Tushan's words, Ah Zai's eyes widened: "What! Did the patriarch really ask Ah Liang?"

"Hey, look at how surprised you are, I've been asking for a long time, but it's you, what are you doing here?"

The corners of Ah Zheng's mouth twitched uncontrollably: "No, it's nothing, just come and take a look, take a look." ”

Tushan was a little puzzled: "Just look at you running here?"

"Okay, actually, I have something to find the patriarch, but seeing that the patriarch is busy now, forget it. ”

As soon as Ah Zheng's words fell, he saw the door of Ji Thief's room creak open, and immediately after, a person flashed out of the room.

Take a closer look, who else would it be if the face was full of depression and grievances, if it wasn't Ah Liang?

When Tushan saw Ah Liang, he hurriedly ran out and waved at Ah Liang, he originally opened his mouth to scream, but when the words came to his mouth, he held back, so he pulled the angry Ah Liang to the side and asked, "What did the patriarch tell you?"

Ah Liang sighed heavily: "What can I say, just let me pay more attention in the future, and allow me to roast and eat meat outside at noon, but pay attention to Mars or something." But today the fire started in the northeast, and I went to the south! Besides, I, and the members of the hunting department, have never eaten their own barbecue at noon. ”

Tushan scratched his head: "Isn't it really you?"

Ah Liang stomped his feet angrily, and swore a gambling curse: "Whoever lights the fire will not die well!"

When the words fell, I saw that Ah Zai next to him had a red face.

Seeing this, Ah Liang looked at him suspiciously: "Ah Zheng, what's wrong with you?"

"No, nothing. Ah Zai said.

Ah Liang didn't care about Ah Zheng, and didn't care why he was in this place, and continued to say to Tushan: "If I let me know which bastard set the fire, so that the patriarch misunderstands that it is me, I will definitely peel his skin!"

Tushan also said: "When the time comes, I will help you grab his hands and feet!"

Ah Liang nodded excitedly and sighed at the same time: "Alas, the point is that I don't know who this bastard is at all, do you say that you are angry? Ah Liang, what's wrong with you, why is your face so ugly?"

While Ah Liang scolded, he saw that Ah Zheng's expression was wrong, and couldn't help asking.

"No, no. Ah Zai smiled far-fetchedly, and then said, "I'll go back first." ”

Tushan called out to him: "Ah Zheng, aren't you looking for the patriarch to have something to do?"

Hearing this, Ah Liang also turned his head to look at Ah Zheng.

The corners of Ah Zheng's mouth twitched: "It's so late, the patriarch should also sleep, I, I can come tomorrow." ”

How do you know, when the words fell, Tushan pouted: "Sleep? You think too much, every night the patriarch will howl in the house in the middle of the night, I can't sleep, touch my head and feet, and so on, it's still early for him to sleep, this will go to ensure that the patriarch is still in good spirits." ”

Tushan has said this, and even shook out the secret that the thief often howls at night, and if he can't say it, it will make people suspicious.

He nodded and agreed, "Then I'll go in." ”

Tushan snorted and continued to curse Aryo for setting fire.

When I walked into the small room that Ji Thief used to summon the person in charge alone, I saw that under the grease lamp, Ji Thief was dragging his chin and thinking about the problem.

"Patriarch~" Ah Zai shouted softly.

Ji Thief, who was thinking about the problem, didn't notice Ah Zai coming in, and of course, he didn't hear Ah Zai shouting at himself.

At this time, he was just thinking about a question in his heart.

Since the fire in the northeast of the tribe today was not caused by Ah Liang and his people, then who could it be?

Ah Liang is the elder who follows Ji Thief, and for him, Ji Thief knows very well in his heart, he belongs to the kind of tendon who can't lie.

For example, if he comes up with two hands and asks you how many stones you have in your hand, and you say with certainty that there is only one, he will laugh out loud and then open his hands and say that there is no one.

This kind of straight person, if he did it, he would have admitted it early on.

Ah Liang is not the kind of person who does something wrong and does not dare to admit it.

However, if it wasn't Ah Liang who set the fire, who would it be?

It was definitely not Ah Niu, because he was the one who informed himself that the fire had started.

As for Ah Zheng, Ji Thief has never suspected him.

It is precisely because of this that the thief fell into a deep entanglement.

The matter of arson can be big or small, if it is said that it was accidentally set on fire by one's own people, then this matter will be over.

But what if someone deliberately set the fire?

If it was deliberately set on fire, then, is he a member of the Lihuo tribe, or an outsider?

If the former is the case, why would they set it on fire?

You must know that in the entire large mountain range, only the Lihuo tribe and the Frost Valley tribe that have disappeared understand fire.

No, there is one more person who knows about fire.

That's the hairy monkey that escaped to the Aomine tribe.

Could it be that this guy is back again? But what good is it for him to come back alone? Or is he back with someone from the Aomine tribe?

Thinking of this possibility, the thief was furious!
