Chapter Twenty-Four: The Murder of the Thief in the Chen Mansion I

Chang Haoxue: "Then how can you take one or two, and others only have tea money?" ”

Dian Xiaoer: "That's all small I have a lotus flower, I said that my wife is sick and needs money urgently, and my daughter-in-law has not yet married. Therefore, the housekeeper saw that I was filial, so he gave me a tael of silver. ”

Chang Haoxue: "Oh, do you still know that there are three unfilial pieties? ”

Shop Junior: "Don't look down on our shopkeeper, what we need to do in this line is to see and listen to all directions, keep your hands steady, your feet fast, and your heart must be counted, ordinary people really can't do it!" There are guests from all over the world, and the more you hear it, the more you remember! ”

Chang Haoxue: "You're quite proud. ”

Shopkeeper: "That's, I'm the first shopkeeper in Feiyun City!" ”

Li Rijing: "Then you know the most news?" ”

Shopkeeper: "Of course! What do guest officers need to know? ”

Li Rijing: "What's the name of the housekeeper of this Chen Mansion?" Where are the people? ”

After listening to this, the shopkeeper didn't answer, and stretched out his hand before saying, "I don't remember!" ”

Wang Xian understood, took out a handful of copper coins, and put them in the shop. Only then did the shopkeeper say, "I remembered it again." This housekeeper of the Chen Mansion is called Chen Hui, who specializes in helping Chen Dashan take care of various businesses, and his power is actually very big. Since he was a child, he was an orphan, he was adopted by the old lady of the Chen family, and he grew up with Chen Dashan since he was a child. ”

Li Rijing: "So to put it this way, apart from Chen Dashan, this Chen Mansion is his biggest housekeeper?"

Shopkeeper Er: "What the guest officer said is that today's Chen Dashan people's handouts are represented by the housekeeper, and others don't know that Chen Dashan is not available or idle, so he asked the housekeeper to help, in fact, because he attaches too much importance to it, otherwise it would be the same if he directly sent a bookkeeper to do it!" ”

Li Rijing: "So is there a road behind the attic?" ”

Shopkeeper: "The guest officer knows this, not many people know that road, and he was still a little naughty in the past, and he only found out by mistake." ”

"So, where does that road lead?"

"That road leads straight to the back door of Chen's house"

"What else does the guest officer have to ask?"

"Okay, it's none of your business."

"Then you have something to command." With that, he retreated to the door, closed the door, and left.

Wang Gou'er: "This housekeeper has such a close relationship with Chen Dashan, it seems that there is no problem." ”

Wang Xian: "It's hard to say these days! ”

Li Rijing: "In this way, when we wait for the evening, we will secretly follow those four people to see how they act, and then we will take the opportunity to attack!"

Wang Xian: "That's the only way. ”

At this time, there was a sound from next door, and it seemed that the four people had returned, so Li Rijing and the others did not speak and rested separately.

That night, sub-hour. Li Rijing and the others woke up together, each made a look, and then they didn't move, listening carefully to the movement next door. Sure enough, after a while, I heard a small sound from next door, as if my toes were on the ground, and I didn't hear the door open for a while, only the whining sound of the wind coming from the window open, and then the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground downstairs. Li Rijing didn't expect these people to go down through the window. I just wanted to call everyone to chase down. Wang Gou'er, who was leaning against the wall and listening to the movement next door, made a gesture to let everyone not move first.

So the five of them stayed in the room and observed silently, and after a while, Wang Gou'er made a gesture, Li Rijing understood, carefully lay on the ground, slowly climbed to the window, and opened the window slightly, which frightened Li Rijing into a cold sweat.

I saw the four people jumping down a rope from the windowsill and walked in the direction of Chen's house. There were two people holding crossbow pads on the opposite house, but fortunately Wang Gou'er asked him to wait before leaving, otherwise he would have to shoot through his back when he went out rashly.

Li Rijing waited until the people walked a little farther before beckoning, and the five of them slowly opened the window and went down in turn.

When they slowly followed, it seemed that the four big men were only going to Chen's mansion, and the two behind should be accomplices, each holding a crossbow to check the back alternately, and Li Rijing, who was harmed, did not dare to follow too closely.

When these people walked to the attic where alms were distributed during the day, these people went around to the side, and when Li Rijing and the others arrived, they were gone.

Li Rijing is not a person who is very good at tracking, there is no one on these streets, God knows where those people went. Meng Er stupidly carried two sledgehammers and couldn't see anyone around, he was very anxious, and he didn't dare to speak loudly, so he had to whisper: "Where are those thieves?" "Although Wang Gou'er is good at tracking, there is no one here all of a sudden, and there is no hiding place in the streets, so there is nothing to do.

Li Rijing looked at the wall on the left that he had climbed over during the day, his heart moved, he jumped up slightly, climbed on the wall, looked inside, and saw that those people and two crossbowmen were indeed inside. The street was straight and could not be tracked, so I had to jump down again.

Wang Xian: "Brother Li, how is it?" ”

Li Rijing: "Sure enough, it's inside the wall." ”

Chang Haoxue: "Then let's follow up quickly!" ”

Wang Gou'er: "Haoxue, you are stupid, the inside is all straight, where can you hide people, and you will be found as soon as you enter!" ”

Chang Haoxue: "Then what should I do?" ”

Li Rijing: "You come with me, I have a way!" ”

The road inside is straight, and it is expected that it will be similar to walk outside, anyway, the end point is the back door of Chen's mansion. At the beginning, it seemed that it was indeed as Li Rijing thought. After walking for a while, I found that there were more and more houses here, and they were getting denser and denser, and when I walked to the back, the inner wall became farther and farther away. The five of them were in a hurry, and they couldn't find the entrance of that road, so they had to hurriedly run to Chen's mansion, hoping that it could be redeemed, Li Rijing was depressed, he was really smart but was mistaken by cleverness.

When I saw the Chen Mansion from a distance, I found that this was the gate of the Chen Mansion, and the gate was closed, and I didn't see those few people. Li Rijing and the others walked to this gate, looking at no one around, and they didn't know what to do.

Wang Gou'er: "It seems that someone is coming over there!" Sure enough, there was a faint voice to the left of the gate. The five of them hurriedly retreated to the back of a house and carefully observed the uninvited guests.

After a while, several groups of people came from different directions, but fortunately they were hiding in this corner, otherwise they would have to be discovered. I saw that these dozens of people were all elite men, holding machetes, and after surrounding the gate, a person who walked out of the middle seemed to be the leader. The man looked left and right as if counting the number of people, and then with a wave of his hand, everyone hid by the gate and lowered their bodies.

Li Rijing and the others saw that there were many people opposite, and they all lay on their stomachs and didn't dare to move. Sure enough, after a while, there seemed to be a cricket in the gate, but the leader outside heard it but did not respond, and when the sound of the crickets inside sounded again, he made two bird calls.

At this time, the door opened, and a person leaned out inside, Li Rijing and others hurriedly looked, but they were not housekeepers. The man was wearing a long robe, looked at the leader outside and asked, "Leader Qiu?"
