The morning rooster announces the dawn, and the sky is slightly bright.

The table was in a mess, Guan Yu was full of red light, stood up staggeringly, hugged his fists and said: "Drink happily tonight, thank you senior!" Another day, Ren will definitely find the best restaurant in the capital to thank his predecessors, one is a little tired, the other is a little drunk, the little brother is rude, I have to lie down for a while. ”

Hou San hurriedly got up to help each other, and said: "It's okay, it's okay, you and my brother don't need to see each other, the future will be long!" ”。

Guan Yu was helped to the bed, lay down in his clothes, and fell asleep upside down, and after a while, his nose made an even snoring sound.

Hou San stood still for a moment, a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

He turned around and quickly pulled out a bulging black rucksack from under the bed, took out the gold and silver that had been prepared in it, stuffed it around in Guan Yu's room, and finally carefully took out a jade Buddha from his arms that he had specially stolen from the shopkeeper's house last night, and gently stuffed it under the futon next to Guan Yu's feet.

After a pause for a moment to make sure that Guan Yu was still snoring smoothly and not moving, he turned around and stuffed the messy cups and plates on the table into his backpack, turned around and walked out of the room. After looking down and thinking about it, he put down his backpack and re-entered the room, inserted the door inside, and jumped out of the window.

After glancing around, he saw that there were no early guests, so he lowered his head and picked up his backpack and hurried away.

Bars slowly stood up from his seat, looked down at the messenger with a cold gaze, and said, "I won't kill you. But I want you to go back and tell you the leaders of the Tuni tribe that the two countries are at war and will not kill them, especially that we have sent messengers of peace. Let him prepare early today, our coalition army will soon raise troops to attack the Tuni tribe! ”。

As if struck by lightning, the Tuni envoy's body shook suddenly, and his mouth was speechless.

On the other hand, the generals of the various tribes of the coalition army in the tent were overjoyed and excited.

After the messenger retreated, Agudamu and Chagan Temur stepped forward with excited faces, vying for the vanguard of the Tuni tribe.

Bars sat down again, waved his hand, and said, "You all go down and prepare your troops and horses first, this battle may not be fought." ”

Agudammu and Chagan Temur looked at each other, and everyone looked at Bars in confusion.

Bars smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Since the leader of the Tuni tribe sent an envoy to Gesulid in such a hurry to maintain the alliance with us, it means that after he calmed down, he knew that he was not our opponent, and he had already begun to fight timidly. Then King Ben Khan felt that the conditions offered to them last time were too generous, and now he put pressure on them with his backhand, or they jumped over the wall and fought with us back; Or they themselves will find a way to take the initiative to give up some interests and bend their knees to us for mercy. Either way, it's good for our coalition. Chaolu can't die in vain, this king wants to fight for the greatest benefit for us! ”。

The shopkeeper of the inn had just gotten up, and Hou San, who had already changed into his night clothes, hurried to visit with a panicked face.

He bowed deeply to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, there are thieves in your shop!" I woke up last night and saw a dark shadow sneaking into a room upstairs through the window, and you can look for it yourself to see if there is anything valuable that you have lost. ”

The shopkeeper was startled and hurriedly asked his wife to check the items at home. With a scream from his wife, the shopkeeper had to believe it: a jade Buddha statue of his family was missing!

The shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed Hou San and asked, "Can you see which room it is, let's go and have a look." ”

As he spoke, the shopkeeper shouted, and ordered a group of young men with sticks to follow Hou San up the stairs and come to the door of the house where Guan Yu lived. Hou San stretched out his hand and gently pushed it, but the door was still firmly inserted from the inside.

The shopkeeper raised his hand and was about to slam the door, Hou San hurriedly stopped and lowered his voice and said: "Shopkeeper, if there is really a thief living in this room, compared to the thief, you and I may not be able to parry, but will startle the snake and let him go!" Why don't we stay here, you go find a few familiar officials, and then we will break into the door together, and come to get the stolen goods, so that he will not escape. ”

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and thought it was a good idea. After all, he is a guest of his own inn, and he must not be sloppy. Second, there are officials present, and so many people can prove their innocence.

The shopkeeper whispered to Hou San and the young men with sticks: "You have guarded me here, and I will go back as soon as I go." ”

With that, he hurried down the stairs. As soon as he burned incense, he rushed back with more than a dozen officials with swords pinned to their waists with nervous expressions.

The official at the head asked Hou San in a low voice, "Are you sure you see the thief inside?" ”。 Hou San nodded firmly.

He turned again and asked the innkeeper, "Can this door be kicked open?" ”。 The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and nodded vigorously.

The official at the head glanced at the accomplices behind him, and everyone drew their knives one after another.

With a "clang", the door was kicked open, and the officials rushed in with steel knives in their hands. The shopkeeper and Hou San and others followed.

Hou San looked up, and suddenly laughed in his heart: he saw Guan Yu on the bed still sleeping with his head covered by the quilt, and even the door was kicked open and didn't wake him up. Little brother, I'm going to get the stolen goods immediately, and I want to see what you have to deny it. Hou San said secretly in his heart.

The officials held steel knives in their hands and quickly surrounded Guan Yu, who was lying on the bed and was asleep, and the leader of the group made a look, and several of his subordinates began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets in the house, searching for stolen goods.

An official stepped forward and patted the corner of the quilt with the steel knife in his hand.

Guan Yu finally woke up, stretched his waist, and slowly walked up unhurriedly, yawning while opening his hazy sleepy eyes.

He looked up at the crowd strangely, not knowing what was happening. When his eyes swept over Hou San's face, he hurriedly asked blankly: "Hey, this brother, didn't we drink and talk all the time last night?" I really drank too much, what happened? ”。

Hou San shouted with a gloomy face: "Bold thief, don't want to spew blood!" I never knew you! ”。

Guan Yu looked around the room full of officials with knives with a blank face, and finally stared at the innkeeper and asked, "Shopkeeper, what is this going to do?" ”。

The shopkeeper snorted, don't turn your face and don't bother to talk to him. However, Hou San discovered a detail that surprised him very much: the little brother had already taken off his night clothes and changed into his usual clothes and pants at some point.

Hou San sneered in his heart: Even if you kid picks up the skin now, it will be impossible to escape! After a while, people will get the stolen goods, and see how you deny it.

An official in charge of the search finally stepped forward and replied to the leader of the team: "Report to your lordship, if you have found anything." ”

Hou San was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly took two steps forward, stepped forward and lifted the futon next to Guan Yu's feet...... There was nothing there, and the heirloom Jade Buddha of the shopkeeper's family was gone!

"What are you looking for?" Guan Yu rubbed his eyes and asked in a little surprise.
