Yes, thieves don't go empty!

Li Si remembered this sentence!

It's also thanks to the fact that he has been a thief all year round, sneaking into other people's homes more often, and being found and chased out more often, so he subconsciously pays more attention to the things around him, and is stronger than ordinary people in terms of vision and hearing.

Therefore, although the words of the king were extremely low and passed by in a flash, Li Si still keenly captured this sentence when he recalled it at this time!

That's right, that's the key to solving the puzzle, thieves don't go empty!

Moreover, this thief is Li Si!

"Wonderful, thieves don't go empty, this sentence must hide the deep meaning of the king!" Jiang Shen slapped his thigh, very excited.

Lu Zixu nodded, also thinking carefully about this sentence.

After all, to do such an activity as a mind game, it is up to him to guess the deep meaning of the king.

Lu Zixu secretly thought to himself, it is a very common word that thieves do not go empty, which is used to describe that as long as thieves make a move, they will inevitably take action and gain something. This seems to be a wish to Li Si.

I hope that he will not be a thief this time, and he will be able to tell whether the silver is adulterated or not.

But when these words came out of the king's mouth, they were very different.

In an emergency, where will the king be idle and say only a blessing?

Lu Zixu shook his head and straightened out his thoughts just now.

So his mind resurfaced his previous understanding of the thief's emptiness.

The king wished that the four thieves would not go empty, and that they would only be able to distinguish whether it was adulterated by only inspecting a piece of silver.

Wait, inside? Empty?

Lu Zixu's eyes suddenly lit up. Although the envoy of Lu State escorted the silver over before, he did not conduct a comprehensive inspection, but when he entered the warehouse, he could see the surface of all the silver.

If there was a problem on the surface, he would have stopped it a long time ago. At the same time, he also believed that the envoy of the Lu State would not be so stupid as not even to do superficial work.

So, since there is a problem, it must appear in it.

At the same time, emptiness is also an allusion to some extent, and some silver is not real silver.

Therefore, the phrase "thieves don't go empty" can also be split into: thieves, don't go, empty.

The thief pointed at Li Si, and the empty finger was adulterated silver, and if he didn't leave, he naturally wanted to let Li Si stop there and catch the ingot of silver.

In this way, the path pointed out by the king was very clear, that is, Li Si wanted to distinguish the adulterated silver and catch it at once!

But how can Li Si tell which silver is adulterated?

How should we interpret the word "empty"?

Surely it can't be literal, because the weight of the silver is easy to feel, and isn't it a joke about hollowness?

Moreover, when Lu Zixu arranged for this batch of silver to be put into storage before, the overall quality and the number of silver ingots were counted, that is to say, if it was not inspected in detail through professional knowledge, it would be difficult for ordinary people to observe what was wrong with this silver with the naked eye and feeling.

Lu Zixu's heart suddenly seemed like a mirror.

If a piece of silver doesn't look out of the ordinary, and it feels heavy in your hand, then the answer is that it's about to come out—

The silver is mixed with other metals.

And at least two or more metals are mixed in it.

Because the silver sent by the envoy of the Lu State is no different from the normal one in terms of size and weight.

In other words, the density is the same as that of normal silver, so it is impossible to adulterate with a single metal, and it must be matched with more than two.

Damn, Lu Guogong, this dog thief!

Adulteration is so shameless, in order to save this bit of silver, even a variety of other metals can be mixed with a variety of other metals, and the trim density can be done!

And over there, Jiang Shen was not idle, chatting with Li Si without a match, hoping to find some clues.

"I said Li Si, 'thieves don't go empty' in your line, when do you usually say this?" Jiang Shen asked.

Li Si immediately replied: "Generally, I go to a poorer family, and I really don't find anything to steal, so I try to touch something valuable." ”

"Or in the house of a rich and noble, if you are found by the other party, you have to slip away quickly, and when you see something good in the process of running, you can also touch it."

Jiang Shen nodded thoughtfully: "Well, I didn't expect you to be quite skilled." ”

John doe:......

Why do I always have a kind of general who is using the opportunity to solve the puzzle and give me fishing law enforcement?

Lu Zixu listened to the conversation between Jiang Shen and Li Si, and also became interested, and asked, "If you follow things in a panic, you can't take a lot of them, right?" So how can you be sure that you are getting something valuable? ”

Li Si smiled: "Of course, it depends on the feeling on my hands." It's not me who blows, I'm in the black light, touch all the treasures, and I know if it's really valuable. ”

Lu Zixu Qi said: "Just by feeling, no need for a reason? ”

Li Sidao: "I've been stealing for so many years, just by relying on a sense of one-hand, I don't hesitate to go along with things, and I often can't make mistakes." If you hesitate, you will be defeated. ”

"That's it!" Lu Zixu clapped his palm.

He really understands the king's deep meaning! The so-called thief does not go empty, in addition to splitting it into thieves, not leaving, empty, there is also a layer of meaning, that is, to ensure that Li Si is in a state where thieves do not go empty and can easily touch valuable things!

A pun on the pinnacle of wonder!

"If you want to feel the real silver and the silver mixed with impurities in it, can you feel which one is worth it?"

Li Si grinned and gasped. This thing sounds like a lot of difficulty.

"Lord Lu, if I remain a thief, maybe I can. But it's been a long time since I've been reformed......"

"Right? Then be evil again! "Jiang Shen shoots." Soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, and tonight, they will be evil! Go and find out which silver is adulterated! ”

Lu Zixu was stunned. This general is too strong, isn't it, how can anyone persuade people to correct and return to evil? Besides, this thing can't be solved by giving orders, right......

But who knows, Li Si was still a little up and down, left and right, left and right, heard Jiang Shen's order, immediately stood straight, made a military salute, and shouted: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”

Lu Zixu was even more confused.

I haven't seen it for a month, this Baishan Army, how can it be like an arm?

The superior has an order, and the soldiers below say to do it?

When Li Si received the order, his expression immediately became serious, and the previous obscene aura was also restrained, and he turned to a touch of seriousness.

He stabilized his mind and took a piece of sterling silver handed to him by Jiang Shen.

After all, if you want to test the fake, you have to touch it and really feel it.

At this moment, Li Si suddenly felt as if he had returned to more than ten years ago, and he was still a child who couldn't eat enough.

He sneaked into the house of the local landlord Lao Cai, carefully entered the silver vault, groped for the silver inside, and felt the temperature of the silver......

He seemed to have vaguely found that state.

So, he closed his eyes.
