Chapter 285: Midnight Tracking

After listening to Xiao Chen's report, Xiangzi felt strange and decided to find out. So, the four of them quietly sneaked back to the camel shop.

The night sky past noon is quiet and profound. The stars in the sky are blinking their tired eyes. The half-curved moon has hung obliquely on the edge of the sky.

A heavy snowfall in the first two days covered the area of the camel shop with a thick cotton blanket. It provides convenience for some people who are thieves and have weak hearts. Walking on tiptoe, there was no sound.

The four of Xiangzi quietly observed for a while through the wall, and two batches of goods were neatly stacked in the center of the courtyard. On the one-man high pillar, two horse lanterns emitted a dim and tenacious light. Under the corner of the wall, two people on duty were holding broken guns in their arms, and they didn't know if they could go off. Guarding the flickering red coal stove, he looked half-confused and half-awake.

Xiangzi squatted at the base of the wall, signaling for Xiao Chen and Wuzi to watch the wind outside, and he and Shuzhen went in to find out. Xiangzi secretly pinched Shuzhen's arm and was about to jump in. But I saw a black shadow flashing in the corner of the south wall, and an agile and vigorous figure had already fallen in the courtyard.

Shoko and Shuzhen took a closer look with bated breath and saw the man, shaped like a cat, crawling to the cargo box. As if he was familiar with the road, he looked for a small wooden box. first rolled over and quietly observed the duty. Then, with skillful movements, he gently pried open the wooden box and took out a small wooden box from inside. He put the two stones into the big wooden box, sealed the mouth, and leaned over to look around, and then he crawled to the root of the wall.

Seeing that the man crossed the wall and swept straight north, before Xiangzi could speak, Shuzhen flashed and secretly chased after him. Xiangzi just wanted to block it, but Wuzi also twisted his body and chased after him like a rabbit.

Xiangzi rushed to Xiao Chen, who was eager to try, and whispered, "You guard, I'll take a look." As he spoke, the broad figure had disappeared into the long night.

With a wooden box in his arms, the man went around a house and ran towards a grove not far away. Although the man's legs and feet were fast, Shuzhen still gave up after him with all his might. Passing through a shallow ditch, the man seemed to have found Shuzhen, was slightly stunned, and suddenly whistled loudly. Immediately after, Shuzhen heard the crisp sound of horses' hooves.

is also a master of the arts, Shuzhen didn't pay attention to this sudden change at all, and still let go of her pace and chased after her. Climbing over the shallow ditch, Shuzhen clearly saw that a horse was running excitedly towards the man.

Shuzhen hurried two steps, and just as the man was about to stretch out his hand to lead the horse, a cold light flashed, and a dart with the sound of the wind hit her mother's chest. The horse was suddenly frightened, neighed, and ran toward the earthen beam, which was not far away.

The man saw the horse run away, and Shuzhen caught up with him again. He threw away the wooden box in frustration and put on a desperate posture.

Shuzhen caught up, and without saying a word, she opened her fists and feet and fought with the man. After a few rounds, Shuzhen felt that the opponent's fists and feet were not bad, and he was full of physical strength and steady in the next game.

After two more round-trips, Shuzhen gradually felt physically exhausted. At this moment, the man suddenly pulled out a dagger from his waist and attacked Shuzhen like a whirlwind. Shuzhen was a little flustered for a while, and she responded in a hurry, and she didn't even have a chance to pull out her gun. At this critical moment, I heard the fifth son shouting: "Auntie stand back!" I'll clean him up. ”

As he spoke, the dexterous figure was already fighting with the man. Sookjin gasped and took two steps back, leaning right on Shoko's arms. Looking at Shuzhen, who was out of breath, Xiangzi asked in a distressed whisper, "It's not hurt, is it?" ”

Shuzhen sighed deeply, shook her head with a self-deprecating smile and said, "Oh, it's not good to be old and not convinced, and after only fighting back and forth with others, it's not good to be out of breath." ”

Xiangzi lovingly stroked Shuzhen's shoulder, and muttered to herself, "It seems that that person's fist and foot skills are not bad." ”

As he spoke, he took two steps closer and watched the fight between the two carefully. Shoko had never seen Goko shoot before, and if you look closely, her fist is monotonous and simple, but her skills are particularly flexible and sharp. Moreover, the shot is quick and clean, and it is a good material for martial arts.

Seeing that the man gradually showed his defeat, Xiangzi's heart was relieved, and he secretly held Shuzhen's hand.

I saw that the fifth son took advantage of the retreat of the man, and suddenly lost his legs. And the man fell to the ground like a sheaf of wheat that had been lifted. Before the man could react, the fifth son followed up with a hungry tiger and pressed on the man.

The man was about to resist, but Wuzi suddenly nodded and slammed his head on the man's head. While the man was stunned, the fifth son quickly moved over the man's body and handcuffed him.

This series of actions was done in one go, and Xiangzi felt itchy in his heart. A feeling of love arises spontaneously.

The man struggled to his feet and exclaimed, "Who are you?" Why can't you get along with me? ”

Shoko dragged Shuzhen to him and took a closer look at the man. At this time, the moon has long been melted by the blue sky. The stars in the sky, though trying to blink their pale eyes, were shrouded in gray.

The five sons cleverly drew a light fire and circled the man's face. The dim light had illuminated the man's face clearly. A thin face, thick eyebrows and big eyes don't look like a bad person. With a straight body, he looks like he is in his twenties at most.

Xiangzi smiled at him and said, "We are from the Public Security Bureau, what's in that box?" ”

When the man heard this, he immediately collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball. He hung his head and shouted, "Oh my God! I'm so unlucky. ”

Shoko crouched down and uncuffed the man. The voice said calmly, "What's in that box?" ”

The man glanced at Xiangzi with a little surprise, sighed and said, "I finally got some valuable goods, but I was unlucky enough to meet you." ”

The man paused for a moment, looked pained, and said, "There are two bags of golden sand." ”

Xiangzi saw that the box was locked, so he then asked, "How do you know that there is golden gold inside?" ”

The man sighed lightly and said with a dejected look: "I have been with them for most of the day, this is the biggest deal I have encountered in two years. Hi! It's really a life-stealing, lifeless eyebrow ghost. ”

Shoko smiled secretly and said, "Do you know the people who carry the blankets?" ”

The man looked disdainful, pouted and smiled, and said, "What a blanket, it's full of yellow sheepskins." ”

Xiangzi smiled knowingly and said, "Have you heard of the robberies of the Soviets?" ”

The man paused slightly, and said thoughtfully: "You mean the group of Soviets in the Gobi in Taipei?" ”

Xiangzi nodded a little excitedly, only to see the man pouting and humming with a disdainful look: "Don't mention it, last night, I was getting a camel and walking back." Suddenly, I saw a group of Uyghurs, sneakily approaching the Soviets' yurt. I guess the Soviets have gold in their hands, and these guys are rushing for gold. I secretly followed, wanting to take the opportunity to get some yellow goods. ”

As he spoke, the man sighed self-deprecatingly and said, "Who knows, those guys have made some iron lumps of wooden shelves." ”

Xiangzi's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Then do you know where they got things?" ”

The man's expression seemed to be a little more relaxed, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead indiscriminately, and said, "I've been following behind, and that group of people has gotten things to the trough in the north of the city." There, there was a family of the Ha tribe who were herding sheep. I saw a dozen camels lying in the courtyard, and I knew that they were going to carry goods outward. There was no oil or water, so it was not contaminated again. ”

Shoko listened, sighed deeply and said, "I finally have eyebrows." ”

Then, Xiangzi lifted his spirits, raised his hand and patted the man and said, "I don't think you are a person who has committed a great crime, how are you?" Follow me, won't you? I also have a good future in the future. ”

The man looked at Xiangzi in surprise for a while, trembling his fat lips, and snorted, "You... You don't catch me? Don't sentence me? ”

Xiangzi looked at the man and said, "It depends on your performance this time, come and take us to the winter nest of Qiqi Lake." ”

The man responded happily, but his eyes were fixed on the wooden box on the ground. Xiangzi smiled and said, "This box must be returned to its original owner, and the reputation of this road cannot be ruined." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned Xiao Chen and Wuzi to go to the county bureau to change horses, and motioned for Shuzhen and the man to return the box.

Under the dim lantern, two people on duty, still half-squinted and half-awake, were beside the stove. Shoko picked up a stone and threw it, and the two of them jumped up in shock.

Seeing the two of them looking around with stunned eyes, Xiangzi sneered and shouted, "What are you eating?" Don't even know what to do? ”

When the two heard about it, they immediately touched Chong Xiangzi, who was raising a gun. Seeing this, Xiangzi said angrily: "We are from the Public Security Bureau, so we won't alarm your shopkeeper in the middle of the night, and Ming'er will return this box to the owner." Remember! Be careful with errands in the future. ”

The three of them came to a sheltered place, and when they saw the man, they stood aside with a somewhat restrained expression. Xiangzi smiled at him and said, "Seeing that you are not very old and have good skills, why do you do this thing?" ”

Unexpectedly, Xiangzi's question led to another story.
