Chapter 135: Blame You for Being Too Cute (The Third Asks for Acceptance.)
It didn't take long for Xu Mingyuan, who was wearing a black suit, to carry the Qingshuang long sword and go out with Yi, who was hanging a short knife from his waist. The clothes that are easy to get fit just right, except that the trouser legs are a little longer, and the fabric is quite comfortable.
The night is already dark, today the moon is half a month, there is a cold bright moon hanging in the sky, and there are occasional pedestrians walking by in a hurry on the street, which has long been lost as lively and noisy as during the day.
"Where are we going now?" Xu Mingyuan looked left and right, Yi didn't come on horseback, it seems that the place he wants tonight will not be too far.
"Go to Chongrenfang, Yongxingfang doesn't have gambling houses and green buildings at all." Yi looked Xu Mingyuan up and down, shook his head and said, "Xiao Xu, we don't look like bad people, what if they refuse to give money?" ”
Xu Mingyuan glanced at Yi with a delicate face, and then thought that even a little girl like Xiao Xia was close to him, even if they both wore black and walked into the gambling house and shouted to collect the accounts, I'm afraid no one would pay attention to it.
This is a problem, after all, although Xu Mingyuan has followed his master to a lot of places, the methods he uses are generally deceiving, and he has really never used force to rob anything.
Yuntai Division's collection of accounts is probably more like an ordinary gang collecting protection money, with the appearance of the two of them, an innocent boy and a handsome scholar, it is indeed a little less deterrent.
"Then how did Qi Haobo receive it at the beginning, his appearance is not as fierce as mine." Xu Mingyuan looked at Yi and said with some doubts.
"At the beginning, Brother Qi pulled a big dog, saying that he wanted people to fight the dog, and the waist-high big dog stopped a lot of people as soon as he entered the door." Yi smiled and gestured against his waist.
"Then let's take that dog with us this time. Did you bring it with you? Xu Mingyuan looked left and right and said, although he felt that Qi Haobo's statement of being a dog was a little strange. But it's a good idea.
"Lao Hei stewed the old blind man last winter." Yi shook his head, nodded again, and said, "But I bought one a few days ago." This time we can take it to the world. ”
"Okay, as long as it's a dog, you go and bring it." Xu Mingyuan smiled and waved his hand.
"I've brought it." Yi walked to the tree next to the gate, untied the rope tied to the tree, pulled out a furry thing from the grass, and walked in front of Xu Mingyuan.
"Are you sure you take it with you tonight?" Xu Mingyuan looked down at the two big fluffy puppies squatting next to his feet, really sticking out his tongue and licking the tips of his shoes, and asked with some hesitation.
Yi smiled and scratched his head. Pulled the rope tied around the neck of the snow-white puppy, "Xiao Xu, this is not a puppy, this is a snow wolf, I spent a lot of silver to buy it, only on the grassland over there in Beili, don't look at it is so small now, it can grow to a zhang long in the future." ”
"Then you hold it." Xu Mingyuan glanced at the cute little snow wolf, rolled his eyes, and said. Just the appearance of this little snow wolf. looks harmless than both of them, and if they go into the gambling house three times to collect the bills, it will be really funny.
However, snow wolves are indeed uncommon in Dawan, and it is easy to buy one. It's also rare. Compared with ordinary wolves, the reminder of the snow wolf is indeed not small, and it is easy to say that it can grow to a foot. It's not an exaggeration, it's quite fierce in the Beili grassland. It's just that it's easy to raise like this. I'm afraid it won't be a bit wild in the future.
"Okay." Seeing Xu Mingyuan agree, Yi was overjoyed. really directly untied the rope on the little snow wolf and threw it aside, stuffed him into his clothes, and only revealed a small head.
The little snow wolf was also obedient, whimpered twice, found a comfortable position in Yi's arms, closed his eyes directly, and was afraid that he would fall asleep later.
"You lead the way, didn't you say you're going to three places tonight?" Xu Mingyuan looked at Yi who was gently stroking the snow wolf's head and said.
"Yes." Yi nodded, looked left and right, beckoned to Xu Mingyuan, and quickly disappeared into the dark street.
Xu Mingyuan looked at Yi's back, showed a bit of surprise, lifted the green frost, and quickly followed. Yi's light skills are extremely good, and Qi Haobo's should be in the same vein, the pace is erratic, unpredictable, and with his fast and weird short knife, he is definitely a difficult opponent.
Avoiding pedestrians, the two hid themselves in the night, and ran softly down the alley towards the outside of the square, and it was not long before they reached the wall.
Chang'an curfew, you can pass in the city, but the streets outside the city are no longer open at night, if they are found by the patrolling street envoys, they can be killed on the spot.
Xu Mingyuan and Yi stuck to the wall, and after confirming that there was no one outside the wall, they climbed directly on a poplar tree, jumped directly onto the wall half a zhang away, and jumped down with their waists.
Xu Mingyuan glanced back at the little snow wolf in Yi's arms, but he didn't expect that the little thing was already asleep, but he didn't have to worry about it making a sound.
Yi discerned the direction, gestured at Xu Mingyuan, trotted along the root of the wall, and landed without making a sound.
The two of them ran briskly along the street, occasionally using trees or houses to avoid patrolling cavalry and foot soldiers, and it didn't take long for them to reach Chongren Fang, which was close to Yongxing Fang.
The two climbed over the wall into Chongrenfang, still running along the small streets and alleys, although there was no curfew in the square, but it was still a little scary to swing around the street with weapons at night. There are also squares in each square, and there are also patrols, so it will be a little troublesome to be stopped.
The two ran for a while, and the little snow wolf in Yi's arms slept soundly, probably feeling a little cold, so he simply burrowed his whole head into it.
Yi, who was leaning against the foot of the wall, suddenly stopped, pointed to a brightly lit building not far away, and said, "The first one, Changsheng Gambling House." ”
Xu Mingyuan looked at the two-story building that didn't know how many lights it had lit to illuminate the entire building, and asked with a smile: "What should I do next?" ”
"If you follow the order, you should let the dogs go first." Yi pondered for a while and said.
The two of them glanced at the little snow wolf lying in Yi's arms at the same time, sleeping soundly, and couldn't help but sigh together, "Second step." ”
"The second step is when we come in." Yi rubbed his hands and looked at the gambling house eager to try.
"How much money does this collection collect at a time?" Xu Mingyuan shook the long sword in his hand and asked softly.
"One thousand taels." Yi Hao answered without hesitation and walked straight towards the gambling house.
"One...... One thousand taels? Xu Mingyuan's eyes widened, and he almost didn't call out, seeing that Yi had already walked away, he hurriedly followed up, and still couldn't believe it: "You said a thousand taels of silver?" Just this one gambling house? ”
Yi glanced back at Xu Mingyuan, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you want to add more?" ”
