Why is a burglary thief called a 'gentleman'? In fact, it is not only because the way these thieves work is to fly off the wall, but also because there is a more important reason: once they encounter any emergency, they will choose to hide their bodies on the beams. Because the beam can not only hide the figure, but also has plenty of space for advance and retreat; If something happens to you, you can also take measures according to the changes in the on-site environment.

However, the 'professional' in Shen Gui's room today chose the step of 'hiding under the bed' for some reason! In this way, he also showed Shen Gui what is called the general standard of textbooks 'cocooning and self-restraint'.

"I've seen you, what else are you hiding? It's so narrow under the bed, don't you feel uncomfortable holding it yourself? …… Come out hero? …… Do you want me to bend down and go under the bed and pull you out? ”

After cutting off all the other party's retreats, Shen Gui stood in the middle of the room, hugged his shoulders for a long time, and walked ten steps away from the bed, and began to 'negotiate surrender' under the bed.

chose to surrender instead of arresting because Shen Gui noticed the 'abnormality' of this thief. This 'Mr. Snitch' is very 'professional' in terms of body and speed, so it is impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake in such the most important details. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, Shen Gui, who has already gained the upper hand, will never take the liberty of walking to the bed and bending down to take the thief!

Sometimes, it is also an important cause of failure.

“… I'll tell you, brother, this head is a knife, and the head is also a knife, since you have already exposed your feet, why don't you simply show your figure? We're all adults, so if something goes wrong, we still have to face it positively......"

Shen Gui talked bitterly for a long time, and did not wait for the result he wanted. So he had no choice but to step forward cautiously, carrying the hilt of the thunder sword in his hand, ready to give the 'dead-eyed' snitch under the bed a trick of 'stabbing the cow across the bed'......

However, as he got closer and closer to the bed, he suddenly stopped! At this time, the distance between him and the bed was close enough, but he didn't feel the slightest bit of the rhythm of internal breathing or the natural wheezing sound! In other words, he just watched the snitch who hid under the bed disappear at this time!

"Huh? I thought it was just a small lock of old Rong (thief), but I didn't expect it to be a Caimen's 'separation' (acrobatics, tricks)! ”

In fact, in terms of the craftsmanship of color opera, there are many manual skills, which are common to the theft methods of the thief industry; There are also many color actors who have 'fallen the door' (taken the wrong road) and will rely on the means of 'tricks' to steal and abduct, and they have become lone thieves who 'run the gang' (commit crimes alone).

Now this method of disappearing out of thin air, in Shen Gui's view, is exactly the same as the 'big change of life' in the ancient color trick.

However, Shen Gui also knew in his heart that he was not watching juggling on the side of the street, and he could leave here unharmed by throwing some scattered silver; He hadn't been able to guess where the snitch was hiding yet, but he was sure of one thing: he was still in the house!

Even so, he also knew in his heart: as long as he started rummaging around, then the other party would immediately seize this rare opportunity and disappear without a trace.

Attracting the attention of the audience is the 'working principle' of the color performer!

“…… I advise you not to wait, I am not a 'hollow' (layman), and I will never give you a chance to leave safely! I'll put my words here, I'll die in this room with you today, anyway, I'm not a thief, see which of us can't hold my breath first! ”

The reason why Shen Guihui was so cautious and cautious was not what he was afraid of was not how clever this snitch who could 'conjure magic' was, but that he really couldn't grasp what strange secret recipes there were in the other party's hands! There have been many senior masters with outstanding martial arts on the rivers and lakes, but they died on the mechanism and medicine powder of the color opera master; Since Shen Gui is familiar with this, he will naturally not become a 'prop' for the other party's tricks......

"Drip ...... A......"

Just when Shen Gui was 120,000 cautious, he suddenly felt a chill on the tip of his nose; Then a pungent smell rushed to the top of the head; At the same time, a strange man's voice also came from Liang:

“…… Did you rely on this kind of thing to burn more than 200,000 Beiyan soldiers and civilians in the East Customs? ”

After Shen Gui heard this question, he neither looked up in a hurry, nor did he open his mouth to answer the other party; Instead, while mobilizing all his energy to prevent the other party's surprise attack, he also carefully recalled the somewhat familiar voice of this person......

"Since you know that I have two skills, Rong and Cai, then I will naturally know how to 'trigger the heavenly fire', and the 'thing' that I use by my hands will definitely not be worse than He Wendao!"

Hearing this person's naked threat, Shen Gui still stood in place without saying a word, letting the fierce fire oil in the other party's hand slowly drip on his middle coat...... This is a contest of patience and courage!

“…… If you don't believe it, then I'll have to open your eyes......"

Before the end of the word 'eye' fell, the snitch hiding on the beam shook out a piece of yellow rune paper from his cuff! Seeing the wind spontaneously combusting, this piece of yellow paper fluttered towards Shen Gui below......

In the next moment, the yellow paper still floating in the air shook from side to side, and the snitch's face changed, and he just wanted to leave the place, but a big hand that came out of nowhere firmly held the lumbar vertebrae; At the same time, Shen Gui's voice came from his right ear:

"You owe me a coat! In addition, if you do it with others in the next life, talk less nonsense! ”

After half a pillar of incense, Shen Gui, who had changed his clothes again, personally lit an oil lamp, beckoned to Qi Yan, who was moving his waist in front of the window, and the two sat at the table face to face.

"The big seal of the jade seal on the edict was stolen and stamped by you when you entered the palace?"

"Yes, at that time, everyone felt that there was still a big seal missing on the edict, and it was not convincing, so I entered the palace. In order to avoid startling the snake, I sent it back after the cover! ”

"More than that! If it weren't for your own cleverness, there wouldn't be so many old guys in Beiyan's court now! ”

In fact, Shen Gui was right, in his original plan, once Yan Qinghong, the second prince, inherited the throne, the voice of the opposition should have been very strong; They can also take advantage of this civil strife as an excuse to comprehensively purge the old faction forces from top to bottom, so that the entire Youbei Third Road can embark on a path of rapid development; But once the forged edict of succession has the jade seal that symbolizes the orthodoxy of imperial power, then even if it is a forged edict, it will become a true holy decree. In this way, whether it is Yan Qinghong or Wan Changning, there is no reason to swing the butcher knife in their hands towards those old-fashioned forces who unswervingly support their side!

Although Qi Yan's entry into the palace and stealing the seal this time will make the secluded north at the beginning of the succession smooth; But at the same time, it will also bury a lot of hidden dangers for the road of innovation and change in the future.

"At that time, the situation in Fengjing City was too complicated, and no one knew the bottom of their hearts; And this is also the final conclusion reached by everyone after discussing it together. Fu Yi and Wan Changning both thought that we at that time might not be able to win; If it is not even clear whether he will succeed to the throne, then what will happen in the future? ”

"That's it, since this matter has passed, then we won't mention it...... By the way, how is your master and his old man? How are you doing lately? ”

Qi Yan's mentor is Chu Zhi, who is known as 'two fingers to explore the sun and the moon, and one palm to fly money', and he is also the leader of the Hundred Birds Organization, and now the great elder.

Chu Zhiqi was originally just an orphan from the market. Because he has no relatives and no reason, since he was five years old, he has lived by eating hundreds of meals and stealing some steamed buns and steamed buns in the market by the way; At the age of twelve, he began to steal business, at the age of fifteen, he began to steal silver horns, and when he was twenty-two years old, he also stole the 'golden body relics' of Nanquan Zen Buddhism. In the end, this treasure of liberation was able to return to the embrace of the Buddha, or because Chu Zhi was 'tired of playing', and returned to the golden Buddha statue seat.

It is precisely because of this sensational 'Buddhist relics theft incident' that caused a sensation in the Huayu Continent that the name of Chu Zhi was completely famous all over the world! Because the index finger and middle finger of his left hand are exactly the same length; When fighting with the enemy, it is also customary to use money darts (in fact, ordinary copper coins) to meet the enemy; So the people on the rivers and lakes gave him such a resounding name.

When Qi Yan was in his early tens, he followed the king of thieves and left Youbei Third Road; Today, it has been almost ten years since I learned the arts. Although Chu Zhi's 'skill', I don't know how hot he has practiced; But the advanced theft concept combined with this 'Rongcai' has been at the forefront of the times.

As soon as Qi Yan heard Shen Gui ask about his master, his eyes suddenly darkened:

"Two years ago, the master suffered from a very serious 'air bulging syndrome', and countless doctors were invited, but in the end they could not save his old man......"

The so-called air and drum syndrome is not the abdominal distension in the mouths of ordinary people, but a real fatal serious illness, just like the 'liver ascites' in Shen Gui's previous life.

Because of this habitual thief, he grew up in the market since childhood; Over the years, his career of theft has also allowed him to travel all over the country; Due to the limited sanitary conditions at this time, and his own living habits are not very healthy: there is no shortage of wine, sex, wealth, and gas! So whether he has 'alcoholic liver' or hepatitis B, it will cause him to suffer from this fatal disease......

But fortunately, when this old-timer died, he was not too young; According to the standards of Huayu Continent, it can be called a 'happy funeral'! Therefore, for his passing, for the 'closed disciple' Qi Yan, although nostalgia and grief are inevitable, there is no regret that he can't let go......

After Shen Gui comforted him a few words, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and jumped out several steps away with a whoosh......

"After dawn tomorrow, let Li Le'an give you a good examination of your liver! …… The kind of disease that your master suffers from...... It's contagious! ”
