Chapter 49: Another Thief

Lou Xiaoyue lay on a couch on her side, supporting her chin with one hand, like a waterfall, the black hair passed through her fingertips, flowed down, and scattered on both sides of her waist. His appearance was extremely lazy, even his eyes were closed, and his face was full and handsome against the pair of thick black sword eyebrows, like the majesty and coldness of the god of war above the nine heavens.

Probably thinking about something, his brows kept tightening, and his beautiful thin lips were pursed into a line. After a moment, his brows furrowed, and a pair of ice eyes slowly opened, and then he got up and walked towards the window.

This is a three-storey restaurant, and because of the good topography and direction, you can see most of the West Side from the window. And Lou Xiaoyue's eyes at this time were looking in the direction of the Dragon King Temple.

As soon as the Dragon King Tower arrives at night, it is lit up transparently, and from the third floor, it is bright. Looking at it from a distance, the starlight is dotted, and the shape of a dragon can be faintly seen, and under the light and fire, the dragon's whole body glows with golden light, which is very dazzling.

He stood by the window for a long time, and suddenly jumped out of the window with a swing of his robe, and then, on tiptoe, stepped forward a hundred feet, and his slender figure disappeared into the night in an instant.

At this time, several people in the Dragon King Tower were still continuing to climb up. And Hua Jiu temporarily stayed on the sixth floor and looked up, only to see that those people had just passed through the sixth layer and were about to climb to the seventh layer, and the iron chain was shaking more and more, as if there would be a problem at any time.

At this moment, the iron chain of the seventh layer suddenly turned, and as it turned, many small holes began to appear in the dragon's body, and then a stream of air spewed out. Hua Jiu could see very clearly below, it was a green mist, which should be poisonous.

These gases are different from the usual ones, even if you are masked, it can penetrate the fabric and enter your nose and mouth, so you have to pinch your nose tightly with your hands.

"Quick, pinch your nose!" The masked man in the lead was the first to react, so he hurriedly said to the people behind him.

But it was obviously late, and there was still one person who smelled it, and immediately his whole body was weak, and he was about to fall, but fortunately he was caught by a person next to him in time.

"Old Five, hold on—"

It was very difficult for the man who had grabbed him to pinch his nose with one hand and to grasp him with the other hand as he fell, and to hold steady on the shaking chains.

Hua Jiu below was also in a hurry, and if she fell at this time, she would definitely die, because she saw that something like a sharp knife had emerged on the ground on the third layer.

The few people above froze there, their movements twisted.

"Second brother, leave me alone, I feel like my whole body is weak......" The poisonous man struggled for a long time before he twisted out a sentence, but the person who pulled him was obviously still very firm and refused to let go.

"Don't talk nonsense...... Hold on, I'll pull you up, ah—"

At this time, an accomplice on the other side also slowly moved over, grabbed him together, and tried to drag him up. There was also an accomplice who was clutching the chain tightly at this time, not daring to raise his head. And the masked man in the lead was at the front, keeping a distance from them, so he could only look at them anxiously at the moment.

Hua Jiu was thrilled to see below, and wanted to go up to help, but at this time, she was shaking non-stop, so she didn't dare to move again.

What Lou Xiaoyue said is really right, no one has passed the eighth floor, and it seems that this is not false at all.

Seeing that the man was about to fall, beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from her forehead at this moment, as if she was more nervous than them at the moment.

After another moment, the man could not grasp it anymore and fell downward......

The eerie knife glowed on the ground like the fangs of a demon, waiting for the prey above to fall into its mouth. If it really falls on this, I'm afraid that the copper skin and iron bones will also be pierced through a few blood holes.

At that time, Hua Jiuyi took out a rope from his waist, hooked the man's clothes with a claw hook at one end, and then quickly stuck the other end of the rope on the chain. Because the process was so fast, and the person was a heavyweight, the skin on her fingers was worn off, and blood immediately oozed.

It hurts, she frowned, her hands clenched into fists.

I saw that the person who had fallen had stopped a few feet from the ground, but fortunately she had made a timely move, otherwise he would have died by now.

There is no danger! At this time, this team found out that Hua Jiu's storage zài.

"Come up......" Hua Jiu desperately dragged the rope to drag the man up, but he couldn't drag him back.

At this time, the man was able to move, and after struggling for a while, he climbed up to the fourth floor, exhaling, and said to Hua Jiu above: "Thank you brother for coming to the rescue." ”

Because Hua Jiu is also masked, no one finds out that she is a girl.

The people above then began to retreat one after another, and they didn't want to go up again, treasures were far less important than their lives.

"What? Aren't you all going up? Seeing that they were all down, Hua Jiu couldn't help but ask.

"There are a lot of organs up there, little brother, you also saw it just now, so I advise you not to go up." One of the masked returns.

It was a strange mechanism, and when they left the seventh floor, the knives on the ground below disappeared and returned to their original appearance, and the group slowly retreated to the third floor.

The Dragonlord's Tower is difficult to get up, but it's easy to get down, as if the dragon has an instinctive reaction, and when someone approaches it, it puts all kinds of hidden weapons, but when everyone leaves it, its defenses disappear with it.

Hua Jiu was still on the sixth floor, hesitating whether to go up or not, seeing that they were all gone, suddenly the entire tower was empty, unconsciously making people feel scared. At this time, Lou Xiaoyue's words swirled in her ears again, and he said that he was a nameless thief who couldn't steal anything......

A nameless thief who can't steal anything......

If she goes back empty-handed, she will definitely be laughed at by him, she doesn't want to look so timid in front of him, she doesn't want him to look down on herself. So gritting her teeth, she decided that she still wanted to go up.

But halfway through, the chain began to shake slightly, and immediately she became frightened, and retreated back to the sixth floor.

"Why, why is it so hard—" she muttered to herself, holding her head and looking distressed.

Just then, however, she heard movement below, and then saw a figure appear next to the third staircase. Immediately, she turned around, pressed her back against the dragon and turned sideways to hide.

I didn't expect that there were so many people who wanted to come here tonight to steal the treasure, and after walking five and coming again, it is conceivable that the treasure on this is really priceless.

Looking down, this thief is also black-clothed and masked, but unlike the previous ones, this person is tall and thin, and judging from the speed at which he is on the fourth floor, it can be seen that this person is athletic, like a thief who has been trained.

Hua Jiu couldn't help but be curious, wanting to see if he could go up to the seventh layer, so he hid in the hidden place of the sixth layer and peeked at it.
