The candle flame was still swaying in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any time, Team Leader He stared at Tian Sili intently, and said slowly in a deep voice: "Lord Sili, having said that, no one knows whether this person is old or young!" If it's a young hero and a skilled martial artist, I'm afraid..."

Halfway through the words, it seemed that the enemy was too majestic, and he changed his breath and said: "I'm afraid that I will startle the snake, so I pretended to leave, but in fact I went to send people to arrest him." ”

After saying that, he swept everyone's faces, especially Tian Sili. Although it is suspected that he is in collusion with Chen Youcai, but now in the period of uncertainty, it is his highest official position.

Seeing that there was a sweep of eyes, Tian Sili let out a soft "oh" and stopped talking.

Listening to this sentence that is not salty or light, Team Leader He seemed to be very unhappy in his heart, and secretly said angrily, "Hmph, as expected! But now that the thief has not been caught, even if you say a flower, it is useless. ”

After a long time, Tian Sili breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was making some decision, and said: "Since Leader He said that there are thieves hidden on the altar, then you should go up and check it." If there is a thief who is hiding, he must be severely punished. ”

Today's Zhou State is not a few years ago, the national power is at its peak, the people are rich, even if they don't close their doors at night when they rest at night, they don't have to worry about thieves patronizing. One of the things that may be crucial in this is that we will never tolerate stealing and disobedience.

Team Leader He was naturally very clear about this matter, but he was surprised why Tian Sili emphasized this sentence, "If there is a thief hiding, he will be severely punished." ”

After chewing carefully, I found that this was obviously only half of what I said, so what if there was no thief hiding?

But now, it's obviously impossible to retreat. In desperation, he clasped his hands into fists and said respectfully: "Thank you Lord Tian for your compassion and humble duties." ”

This was a kind word, and everyone present had heard it. Tian Sili himself smiled faintly, as if he didn't pay attention to it at all, just waved his hand casually, and replied: "It's okay, you are also doing your duty." ”

Since he promised to let him go up to check, he could naturally be sure that there was no longer anyone hiding in the incense burner, and now Tian Sili just wanted to end the matter quickly and leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. As for why he specifically said whether there was anyone hiding, he just wanted to sell a favor to Team Leader He.

So when Team Leader He hugged his fists and thanked him, Tian Sili already understood that this was a manifestation of his acceptance of this favor.

Everyone thought that there was no ripple in the matter, and they all stared at Team Leader He, but at this moment, a resentful voice suddenly came from their ears: "I Chen Youcai is humble and let others take care of it, I have nothing to say, but this place is the Blessing Palace, the place where the world worships the thick soil, today you He Leader said that I pray for the Palace of Blessing to hide thieves to search, tomorrow Leader Zhao said that my Blessing Palace also hides thieves to search, and the day after tomorrow another Team Leader Li also said that there are thieves hiding in my Blessing Palace to search, how can I be this bad." ”

Although the voice was not loud, everyone present could hear it clearly. Everyone was in an uproar, this is not unreasonable, just now Lord Tian also said that this is a place of prayer, if it is really as Chen Youcai said, it is no different from the carriage and horse shop?

The corners of Team Leader He's mouth, who was about to turn around, twitched slightly, glanced at Chen Youcai, who was standing at the corner of the altar, and said in a sharp tone: "Then what should I do according to your opinion?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Youcai hurriedly shook his head like a rattle and said, "I'm just a little guard, what can I say," Speaking of this, his tone eased slightly, and he smiled bitterly at Tian Sili on the side: "Even if there is, I don't dare to talk in front of the two adults." ”

Tian Sili, who originally wanted to do something in a hurry, was muttering in his heart that it was finally over, but Chen Youcai suddenly heard this in his ears, and he was almost so angry that he almost jumped to his feet.

If it weren't for the guards standing beside him, he would have pretended to be an adult, and would have gone up to give this villain a big mouth. Just as he was slandering, he couldn't help but sigh when he handed over the words.

This soft sigh was originally Tian Sili's helpless sigh, but in the ears of the guards, it seemed to be supporting Chen Youcai.

Things were as everyone expected, after a little silence, I saw Tian Sili speak: "What he said is not unreasonable, if you come here to make a scene in three days like this, where is there still a little sacredness in this prayer palace." Otherwise, when today's event is over, I'll go and talk to the Commander. Let him send some more people to this place, so that if he is a man, he will not attract misunderstandings from other team leaders. ”

didn't hear the answer he wanted, Chen Youcai looked at Tian Sili in a daze, and was secretly surprised in his heart, why this person suddenly favored Team Leader He.

Although he was angry in his heart, he was not good at attacking in front of everyone, so he could only clasp his fists and salute: "This is very good, I will thank Lord Tian here first." As he spoke, he glanced at Team Leader He, who was already standing in front of the incense burner.

was thinking about how to deal with Chen Youcai's difficulties, but suddenly heard what Tian Sili said, and Team Leader He was also at a loss.

Based on what he saw, these two people should be a nest of snakes and rats, how to deal with Chen Youcai, who suddenly became difficult, this Lord Tian not only did not help, but stopped it lightly. Could it be that it was his own delusion just now, that this Tian Daren is such an upright person who has a clear distinction between good and evil?

As he was thinking about it, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Chen Youcai's unkind gaze, so he raised the corners of his mouth slightly as if defiantly, and snorted lightly.

Seeing Chen Youcai's deflated expression from a distance, Team Leader He felt that this night's busyness was worth it, and even a little earned.

The thought of bringing the sweet potato thief to him later, his expression was a hundred times more ugly than it was now, and he wanted to laugh.

So he couldn't wait to turn his head and stand on his tiptoes to look into the incense burner.

Belch...

It was empty, and no one was hiding in it

Three incense burners, just saw the first one, not in a hurry.

Team Leader He told himself that how could he catch it all at once, it would be too unchallenging.

Then he walked to the incense burner in the middle, and pointed with his finger, as if to tell everyone that the sweet potato thief was hiding here.

Under the altar, all the guards held their breath and stared. I was nervous than waiting for the new daughter-in-law to lift the red hijab, and some even felt that they heard the sound of a pounding heartbeat.

Hiss...

Looking at the incense burner that was still empty, Team Leader He gasped.

The three incense burners have been seen in two, not to mention thieves, but there is no trace left.

Team Leader He froze in place, raised his head and glanced at the best incense burner next to him.

"What's wrong?" Chen Youcai pretended to be anxious and asked, "Where are the thieves hiding?" ”

Tian Sili, who heard this, glanced at Chen Youcai, who was acting, and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "Fuck, aren't you asking knowingly?" The two women just now came out of here, and the incense burner is really a secret room. ”

Under the altar, the guards who didn't know the truth stretched their necks one by one, and some even couldn't bear the doubts in their hearts and asked, "Leader, how is it, is there anyone hiding inside?" ”

Team Leader He on the head of the fire was worried that he couldn't find a place to vent, and he scolded without looking back: "Ask, do you believe that I said that I hid your ancestors?" ”

This sentence not only scolded the guards who questioned the audience, but also scolded Chen Youcai, who took the opportunity to prepare to make things difficult for him.

When the people heard this, they knew that the censer was empty. Then they all looked at the incense burner placed on the outermost side.

Chen Youcai, who suffered a secret loss, was so angry that he almost blew up his heart and lungs, but he couldn't openly scream, so he had to grit his mouth full of steel teeth and gurgle.

And the leader of the team, who breathed a bad breath, seemed to have forgotten the embarrassment of the two empty incense burners, so he walked to the third incense burner.

With one hand on the edge of the incense burner, he turned his head to look at Chen Youcai, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, now there is only the last incense burner left, and you can see that this footprint has also disappeared here." So..."

Chen Youcai, who had already laughed so much in his heart that he couldn't help himself, still pretended to be frightened on his face, and even stammered a little: "He... What do you mean, brother? ”

Team Leader He knocked on the incense burner with two fingers, and said with a smile: "It's not interesting, I just want to tell you that this is the third incense burner, you look back, this is a big blessing palace, and the place where you can hide is nothing more than these three incense burners, and now I have explored two." ”

Following his words, Chen Youcai looked around, nodded silently, and said, "That's true, if you hadn't reminded me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known that this last incense burner could also hide." Have you ever thought about what you would do if there was no one in this incense burner? After saying that, his face changed suddenly, and it was only a moment from panic to composure.

Looking at Chen Youcai's smiling face, Team Leader He suddenly felt that the entire Blessing Palace was extremely depressed. As Chen Youcai said, what if there is no one in this incense burner at the end? What about him?

He hadn't thought about it since he first opened it. It's not so much that I haven't thought about it, but that I haven't thought about it at all.

Only now did he understand that from the delay and inaction when he first ascended to the Blessing Palace, to the obstruction when he opened the door just now, and the difficulty of walking and even falling down, even the stuttering just now was pretended by Chen Youcai. Maybe tonight is only now, and that's what he really thinks.

Since he knew that all this was pretended by him, the incense burner behind him must be the same as the first two, empty.

So where did this footprint come from, is it really as Tian Sili said, it was not cleaned and left?

The incense burner was behind him, and it made no sense to look at it or not, he had completely lost this night, every step of the way was under his calculations, and even when he would react, it should be expected by this person.

If it is really as he guessed, then this person's transfer to the Prayer Palace was also premeditated?

If all this is a bureau, and you are just a speck of dust in this bureau for no reason. Then the composure that Chen Youcai showed at this moment should be pretended, and he should be at the end of his crossbow. According to this inference, there must be someone in the incense burner behind him.

Thinking of this, he looked up to the sky and laughed: "Chen Youcai, do you know how to write these four words!" With that, he turned his head to look at it.
