Chapter 173: Actually, we were also forced!
When I got out of the guest room and came to the lobby, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted Mo Lu and me as soon as he saw me, and asked with concern, "Where are you going?" ”
"Nothing to do, just take a walk!" As I spoke, I lifted my feet and was about to leave.
The shopkeeper looked at me, his face showed a little hesitation, I patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, one of my buddies is still in your store, we can't run!" ”
When I said what I was thinking, the shopkeeper's face suddenly flushed with a faint flush of shame. I smiled at him, and Mo Lu and Mo Lu walked out of the inn.
As soon as we walked out of the inn, we could hear the noise of the street, which caused Mo Lu and I to walk all the way and look left and right. To be honest, it was the first time I visited this ancient street market, and the shopping experience in my previous life made me a head or two, looking at the expensive things on the counter in the mall, I was upset, but the scene in front of me was different, the small merchants and hawkers set up stalls on the street, even if it was a store specializing in tea or silk, it was also a customer surplus of good quality and low price, definitely comparable to my store at that time, but I had a question I wanted to know - is there any counterfeit goods sold in this street market?!
Mo Lu and I only walked a few steps before we saw from a distance that Ye Zhutou, who came to check the room last night, was leading people to inspect, and an idiom suddenly flashed in my mind: The road is narrow!
Ye Zhutou also seemed to notice me and Mo Lu who were shopping here, and ran straight towards us.
As soon as the group rushed to us, Ye Zhutou casually raised the steel wide-backed broadsword in his hand and shouted at me and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"Just walk around!" I frowned, looked at him and said casually: "Didn't Ye Zhutou even care if we went out for a walk, right?" ”
"It's not peaceful in this town, don't go far!" Ye Zhutou's tone seemed to be full of threat.
"Ye Zhutou said with a smile, this blue sky and white day are bright, and people come and go in the town, where is there anything unpeaceful!" I looked at him deliberately defiantly.
"Hmph, if Childe doesn't believe it, then please take care of yourself, but don't blame me for not reminding Childe then!" Ye Zhutou's tone was not good.
"Thank you!" I replied with a pretentious salute.
Ye Zhutou glanced at me, and then waved his hand: "Let's go!" After saying that, he passed by.
I turned my head to look at their backs as they left, hey, I wondered, am I just not going to invite him like that? Did I recruit him or did I provoke him?!
"Senior Mo!" I whispered, "Looks like we really can't leave, this guy seems to be in trouble with me!" ”
"Bi Gongzi rest assured, he is just trying to find the thief who kidnapped the Wang family's youngest daughter as soon as possible, if he is caught by the thief in the future, he will naturally return Bi Gongzi a justice!"
"And what if he can't catch those bandits all the time?" I turned my head to look at Mo Lu.
"This ......." He was also a little embarrassed.
"Alas~!" I sighed and muttered to myself: "I really let Wang Wu say it, it was nothing to do, but now it's good, it's a matter of time, and it's a big deal, it seems that we have to clear up our grievances ourselves!" With that, I turned and walked back.
"Master Bi, where are you going?"
"Go back and discuss with Wang Wu to see if he can find those thieves and rescue the little girl of the Wang family!" I sighed and continued walking.
……
As soon as Mo Lu and I returned to the inn, the shopkeeper also breathed a long sigh of relief as if he had unloaded a heavy burden - hey, he was really afraid that I would run away!
When I returned to the guest room, I saw the bored Wang Wu sitting on the stool, bored fiddling with his broad-backed knife, I looked at him and asked, "Brother Wang, I want to ask you something!" ”
"What's the matter?" When Wang Wuyi saw that we were back, he hurriedly looked up.
"Oh, that's the case, I also told you about the little daughter of the Wang family yesterday!" I glanced at Mo Lu on the side, and said leisurely: "We have done a lot of good things along the way, and we are not bad at this good thing, we have to find a way to rescue this little girl, what about you, you have also done the bandit business before, you should know where these bandits usually hide, so I just want to ask you!" ”
I thought that Wang Wu would be depressed and entangled when he mentioned the matter of the bandits, but when I said these words, Wang Wu's eyes flashed with an abnormal light, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, "Hey, Bi Gongzi is right to ask me, don't look at me as just a rough person, but I haven't been a thief for a year or two, except that I haven't read a book, there is no one who doesn't know the way, Bi Gongzi, if you have anything, just ask!" ”
"Uh...... Then I'll ask! I glanced at Mo Lu beside me again, and asked leisurely, "Brother Wang, do you usually ...... when you rob, do you like to go out in the morning or at noon?" ”
I obviously felt that three black lines appeared above Mo Lu's head when he heard me ask, hehe, don't I just ask, according to the law of three, the three elements of time, place and person must be asked, and none of them can be missing.
Wang Wu looked at me and smiled, "At that time, when we woke up in the morning, it was already three poles in the morning, who would be idle to do something to go out early in the morning to rob, and besides, the rich people would not go out so early, so our robbery generally starts with lunch!" ”
"Uh-huh......!" I nodded hurriedly, my fingers still habitually scratching something on the table, and I continued to ask, "How are the personnel assigned?" I mean, how many people went out to rob, and how many stayed in the cottages? ”
"Well, that's not necessarily!" At this time, Wang Wu was quite a star of the sports coach who was interviewed, "We go out to rob, and at most we can bring thirty or forty brothers, and it is almost enough to leave more than 20 brothers in the village!" ”
"Why did you send so many people out of Lu together?" I stepped up to ask.
"It's not that I'm afraid that there are too many things back from the robbery, and there are fewer people who can't move!"
I Khan, I really didn't expect this robbery to be a hard job, and it was also a division of labor! I continued to ask: "By the way, Brother Wang, do you usually only look at money and things when you rob, and you won't rob anything else?" ”
Wang Wu looked at me with a look of incomprehension written on his face.
I explained, "I mean, don't you rob the money and leave, you won't easily hurt the lives of those who are robbed by you, and you won't snatch the beautiful girls of other people to the mountains to be the lady of the village, right?!" ”
Wang Wu listened to my words, glared at me and said emotionally: "Bi Gongzi, I am a bandit, not a robber!" ”
Uh......, I understand, Wang Wu means to tell me that he is a professional thief and has professional ethics, and he doesn't do anything that lacks morality!
I hurriedly raised my hand to reassure, "Brother Wang, don't get excited, I understand!" ”
Wang Wu calmed down his mood, looked at me and continued: "But judging from the fact that I have been a thief for so many years, I don't know if other thieves have taken women to the mountain to be the lady of the village!" ”
I nodded.
I understand what Wang Wu means, as the saying goes, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and the same is true for the bandits, although there is a great risk, the return is not small, the so-called risk and benefit are proportional, you don't go to rob a beautiful woman as a wife does not mean that others will not rob.
I thought for a while, raised my head and continued to look at Wang Wu: "Brother Wang, let me ask you again, where do the bandits usually set up camp?" In other words, I just want to know what kind of place or corner the thieves would choose as their nest in order to avoid the pursuit of the government? ”
Wang Wu looked at me very seriously and said slowly: "Actually, thieves don't have to have their own cottages!" ”
"What do you mean?" I continued to ask.
Wang Wu continued to look at me: "Actually, we are also forced!" ”
