Chen Anran sat behind the table in the room and pondered, and Yahuan was comfortable and wishful waiting. After a while, a report came from outside the door, "Miss Bao, my subordinates are incompetent, and the thieves have run away!" ”。“ It's okay", Chen Anran knew that her subordinates would not be able to catch the hermit for a while and a half, and it was possible to ....... ‘’

As soon as Wei entered, the others waited outside the door. Chen Anran commanded. When Wei Yi heard the order, he opened the curtain and came in, Chen Anran lowered his voice and asked, "What is the first gift I gave you?" "One hundred taels of silver," Wei Yi also whispered back. What's your password today? '', "Beijing! Chen Anran nodded, waved his hand, and let Wei Yi stand behind him. Then call in Wei Er, Wei San, Wei Si, Wei Wu, and stand behind Chen Anran after answering all the questions correctly, Chen Anran thought about it, and asked Wei Si and Wei Wu to jump outside the hole on the roof to be on guard. Ever since Chen Anran came back from the treasury and accidentally discovered the hermit, she had given her guards a password, which would change every day. She feared that the Hermit would infiltrate the guards. She asked the guards to memorize the daily password, and her password was also very simple, usually no more than five words, and it was not easy for others to guess, because her password was a modern metropolis, how could the ancients know it.

When Wei Liu came in, he bowed his head and saluted, and Chen Anran asked, "When did you become my bodyguard?" What was the first time I gave you a greeting gift? Wei Liu thought for a moment and replied, "I was the escort of the young lady the day before yesterday, and the meeting gift given by the young lady was silver." "What's the password for today?" , Chen Anran continued to ask, Wei Liu bowed his head and replied, "My subordinates were bent on chasing the thieves just now, and they forgot about it after they were busy." Chen Anran nodded after hearing this, waved her hand to let her stand behind him, Wei Liu just took a step, Chen Anran shouted, "Catch her!" Wei Yi, Wei Er, and Wei San behind Chen Anran heard the sound and quickly pounced on "Wei Liu"! However, I saw that with a wave of the hand of "Wei Liu", a cloud of black smoke exploded, and the smoke dissipated, and "Wei Liu" disappeared, and Wei Yi, Wei II, Wei San, Ruyi and Shu Xin lay on the ground, unconscious. At this time, the guards outside the door also rushed in when they heard the sound, Chen Anran covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and looked helplessly at a hole in the ground of the house, at this time, Wei Si and Wei Wu also turned over and fell from the hole in the roof, and looked at the hole with a diameter of about half a meter on the ground, and the hole was scattered with broken wooden boards, which should be used to support the floor of the hole, and the floor also fell into the hole, and it could be seen that it was also broken into several pieces. The cave should have turned around about 2 meters underground, and the hermit escaped from the hole.

Chen Anran asked the guards who were lying on the ground to be carried out unconscious for treatment, she knew that the three guards had inhaled smoke containing wood chrysanthemum and white mandala flowers to cause a coma, and the doctors in the house should be able to treat it, in modern times, because of poisoning by mistake, such as eating mandala seeds, etc., usually Western medicine uses 1:5000 potassium permanganate or 1% tannic acid to lavage the stomach, and then uses magnesium sulfate to catharsis or enema. Traditional Chinese medicine uses 120 grams of mung bean coating, 60 grams of honeysuckle, 150 grams of licorice, and decoction to detoxify multiple times. As for the real Wei Liu, I'm afraid that he is dead, and the hermit will never leave a living mouth, bringing the slightest threat to his survival.

At this time, Li Weichang, who got the news, also rushed over, and when he saw the holes in the roof and floor, he was also so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat on his back. This thief's martial arts are so high that hundreds of guards up and down the Hefu haven't found out, it's terrifying.

Chen Anran also admires this hermit, his courage and skills. If it weren't for her research on hermits in modern times, and she herself is good at concealment, she would have been caught by this hermit who sneaked in late at night today. Chen Anran expected that the hermit might look for an opportunity to grab a guard, and then sneak back disguised as a guard, and then wait for an opportunity to act, because she knew that the hermit would not give up easily when the mission failed. But what she didn't expect was that the hermit was not only digging holes in the roof without being noticed, but she was also digging tunnels in her bedroom, and she didn't even notice it. When the hole was dug and where it leads, no one knows.

I don't know if there is a mechanism or ambush in the cave, in order to reduce unnecessary sacrifices, Chen Anran did not let the guards jump into the cave to chase after him. Chen Anran asked the two guards to bring some firewood, lit it with fire and threw it into the cave.

Chen Anran's yard is now unsafe. Li Weichang suggested that Chen Anran should be aggrieved and temporarily move to live in the guard yard, which is also convenient for protection. Chen Anran thought about it, there was no other better way, so Chen Anran, Li Weichang and more than a dozen guards all came to the courtyard where the guards lived. Li Weichang arranged a very clean and tidy room for Chen Anran, and arranged several female guards for personal protection.

It's not a matter for a young lady to live in the guard yard for a long time, Li Weichang, Chen Anran, and more than a dozen guards are discussing in the council hall how to prevent and arrest the hermit. It wasn't until dawn that everyone came up with some plans. First of all, find illegal tunnels in the whole government, the General's Mansion itself also has tunnels, these are all core secrets, only Li Weichang knows, how to check the tunnels of the General's Mansion without exposing them, and also find out the tunnels of thieves, this is all Li Weichang's worry. Then strengthen the guards, increase the guards, increase the lighting, so that the hermit has nowhere to hide. Then set up a vibration transmission device underground, send a special person to monitor, and report immediately if you hear an abnormal sound.

As for the safety and defense of the courtyard of the general, Gongzi and Miss, it needs to be studied more carefully and meticulously, Chen Anran saw that it was dawn, so he told everyone to go to breakfast first, make up for sleep in the morning, and come to the conference hall to discuss after eating at noon.
