Chapter 54: Invitation to Merit

The sky is getting dark, the flaming red lanterns are hung all over the streets and alleys of Daye Fang, women with children in their hands, walking through the bustling streets full of businessmen and tourists, many naughty children running around with fireworks in their hands, and there are also official ladies walking with smiling dolls.

In the bluestone alley where there is never a shortage of drinkers, Zhu Manzhi walked back and forth with his waist knife, and from time to time let out a faint sigh:

"Alas~"

In order to sneak into the case library to find out the news, Zhu Manzhi first caught the thief quickly, and after a lot of hard work, he was transferred to the capital to become a wolf guard, and then took off into the Tianzi camp next to Xu Shizi's thigh, and finally sneaked into the place where her father's news might be stored, but he didn't even find anything.

That's it, Xu Shizi was hit by the Lock Dragon Gu, this is a big matter related to her life, she still hasn't found anything, which is equivalent to achieving nothing, and wasting the opportunity created by Xu Shizi in vain.

After today, if you continue to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, you will inevitably be alerted by the Investigation Division, and you may never have such a good opportunity to sneak in again, how to explain to Xu Shizi later, I feel a pain in my head when I think about it.

I wish the full stomach of Xiao Jiujiu, but I don't dare to tell outsiders about these things, so I can only walk back and forth in the light snow at night, sometimes looking down at a little snow foam accumulated on the placket, bored, and deliberately straightened up, looking like I want to catch the snowflakes to play.

It was completely dark, and he agreed to meet Xu Shizi here, but he didn't see Xu Shizi coming.

Zhu Manzhi was afraid of missing it, so he walked in the alley over and over again, and he didn't know how many times he went back and forth, and suddenly at the alley near Sun's shop, he saw a figure disappearing in a flash.

At a glance, Zhu Manzhi found that he was a man with a hat and a sword on his back.

This kind of costume was everywhere in the market, and it was not surprising, except that the man's steps were unsteady, and he staggered as if he was injured.

Zhu Manzhi has been a fast catcher for a year, and he is naturally alert to this obviously abnormal situation. After pondering for a while, he quickly chased after him with a Yanling knife and glanced at the corner of the alley.

In the dimly lit alley, the man with the hat walked slowly with his right hand propped up on the wall, and his left hand hung weakly, obviously injured. Look at the tall figure, long legs, thin waist, and round hips......

Zhu Manzhi pursed her lips slightly, and after noticing that the other party was a woman, she was obviously a little cautious.

An assassin appeared in the Dragon Yin Pavilion and snatched the famous sword 'Wound Chun' and tried to assassinate Zhang Xiang, and the Tianzi Battalion has been searching for this assassin. According to the records of eyewitnesses in the yamen, the height and figure are about the same as the woman in front, so it is difficult to ......

I wish Manzhi's eyes to shine, this is a great achievement! At least a few hundred taels of silver.

And last time Xu Shizi was also kidnapped by this thief, there must be a grudge, Xu Shizi is so powerful......

Zhu Manzhi is worried that he can't deal with Xu Shizi, and now help him catch a thief to relieve the hatred in his heart, and he shouldn't forgive her a little for doing something unfavorable.

Thinking of this, Zhu Manzhi quietly walked into the alley, hung far behind the female thief, went around for a long time, and finally came to a sparsely populated alley.

Squeak –

The female thief opened the door of a courtyard building, closed it when she entered, and the sound of the deadbolt was heard.

Zhu Manzhi blinked, and after noting down the location, he cautiously left the alley......

————

At the beginning of the lanterns, Xu Buling walked out of Mrs. Lu's courtyard, only to feel that his body was hollowed out.

Since getting into the carriage and lying down at noon, Xu Buling basically didn't get up, and a few medical women rubbed around and didn't know what to rub, if it weren't for the pure eyes of several medical women, he would have thought that he had been taken the opportunity to rub oil.

Not to mention Mrs. Lu, he dared to move and threw it over with a look, and when he returned to Chang'an City, he didn't want to leave, he found a few family members to carry him directly to the other courtyard, and he was fed for eating and drinking, and the scene was the same as if he was about to see the king of Hades. I was sweating and wanted to take a shower, if it weren't for his resolute attitude, Mrs. Lu would have been able to help beside him.

However, no matter how much the teacher moves, it is also out of concern.

Although Xu Buling was a little unbearable, after all, he was reincarnated as a human being, and his heart was still quite warm.

After walking out of the courtyard, the moon slave led the horse over and bowed respectfully:

"Little prince, there is no confidant around Mrs., if you have free time, you should come over to accompany you more."

The moon slave is Mrs. Lu's personal maid, according to the rules of the family, she is both a playmate and a master and servant, and the relationship is sometimes closer than that of father and daughter. Yue Nu said these words, naturally for Mrs. Lu, and didn't want Xu Buling to hide and find no one.

Xu Buling chuckled at this: "Got it." Raising his hand to take the reins, he turned over and galloped towards the outside of Jinghua Garden.

Kuishou Street is not far from Daye Fang, chasing the wind and snow through the long street, and soon arrived outside the bluestone lane.

Xu Buling led the horse to Sun's shop, Sun Zhan Cabinet restored its former appearance, talking and laughing with the drinkers, and after seeing Xu Buling, he raised his hand and took the wine gourd:

"Childe is here! That girl has been here just now, and she looks like she wants to find you, so I asked her to go back first, and I'll tell you when you come. ”

"Really?"

Xu Buling raised his eyebrows, not surprised by this, raised his hand to take the wine gourd, and led the horse to the depths of the alley.

He had just walked a short distance when he heard the sound of footsteps and ran towards him.

Xu Buling turned his head to look, but saw Zhu Manzhi trotting quickly with a Yanling knife, trembling and impactful, he was a little worried that the uniform of the wolf guard would not be able to hold back.

"Xu Gongzi, Xu Gongzi...... Guess what I found! Haha-"

Zhu Manzhi panted and ran to him, his face was red, and he stopped in front of the horse, with a look of offering treasure with his waist crossed and his eyes full.

Xu Buling was a little amused, leading the horse and continuing to walk: "Found the lock dragon Gu, or did you find your father's news?" ”

"Nothing! Haha – oh no......"

Zhu Manzhi was too nervous for fear that the big fish would run away, so he spoke a little incoherently, and when he noticed that the smile was wrong, he quickly covered his mouth again.

It's a pity that it's still too late, Xu Buling's eyes sank slightly, and he gently held the hilt of the sword, and twitched Zhu Manzhi's ass with the scabbard, making a soft 'snap' sound.

"I'm so glad I didn't find you? Tease me? ”

"No~~"

Zhu Manzhi knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he didn't dare to get angry, so he quietly rubbed his back and snatched the reins from Xu Buling's hand:

"Just now I met a thief in the alley, very valuable...... No, what kind of credit is great......"

Xu Buling glanced at it a few times: "You are all the wolf guards of the Tianzi Battalion, and you still have accumulated credit, and you can't command the Investigation Division?" ”

Zhu Manzhi was indeed a wolf guard in order to enter the case library, but he couldn't help but take the reward for nothing, and he pouted at the moment: "...... Well, in its place, seek its government...... It seems that there is such a saying......"

Xu Buling nodded, but he couldn't refute it, so he asked instead:

"What do you see in the case library today?"

"Talk as you go, the thief will run away later......"
