Chapter XXVII: The Seizure of Stolen Goods
Luo Feng decided to observe quietly for a while. He can't kill people for no reason, he has his principles of life. Although his principles are very dangerous in the rivers and lakes he is in now, he has always insisted on not changing his original intention.
The old gardener had been doing the work in his hands, and he didn't come over to talk to Luo Feng, nor did he leave. It wasn't until dusk approached that he thumped his back and went into the house by himself and closed the door.
Gu Xiaodong jumped down from the tree. He saw that Luo Feng's eyes were always looking at the door and felt very strange.
Luo Feng heard the sound of Gu Xiaodong jumping off the tree, he didn't look back, but asked, "It's done?"
"Give!" Gu Xiaodong put an intact piece of jade in Luo Feng's hand. Luo Feng looked at the jade and smiled unconsciously.
Gu Xiaodong "swished" back to the tree. The girl is here. She saw that Luo Feng was really still waiting for her in the same place, and she ran over excitedly.
Luo Feng smiled and handed the jade to the girl's hand. The girl took the jade pendant with her white and tender little hand, and turned around and ran away without even looking at it. A cloud flew up her face.
"Hey! The eyes are all falling in! Gu Xiaodong looked at Luo Feng with a smile in his eyes and said sarcastically. He couldn't see Luo Feng's handsome and charming appearance the most.
"You go and assist Mo Yu, he should be in the concierge now." Luo Feng's voice was very small, and only he and Gu Xiaodong could hear it.
Gu Xiaodong seemed to understand why Luo Feng kept looking at the door of that house, and dared to love that there were people inside! Why not do it? Gu Xiaodong looked at Luo Feng in puzzlement. Luo Feng turned around and walked towards the house with the kettle and utensils.
The gardener in the room had indeed heard and seen everything Luo Feng had done. He knew that Luo Feng was not a gardener, and his innate temperament had already betrayed him.
Luo Feng entered the house and asked directly, "Did you hear everything?"
"Hmm!" The old gardener did not deny it. He was looking at his calloused hands.
"You're not going to say it, are you?" Luo Feng asked.
"Nope! I'm just a gardener. The old gardener still didn't look up.
"You already knew I wasn't a gardener, did you?"
"Yes!" The old gardener was very honest.
"Do you know about the corruption case in Fenzhou?" Luo Feng tried to make him understand that what he did was for justice.
"Where are officials not greedy?" The old gardener looked up. There was mockery in his gaze.
Luo Feng really didn't know if this person should stay. He seems to be dissatisfied with the current society. So, is he really not going to denounce himself?
There was silence in the room for a moment. Luo Feng sat at the table drinking tea, his eyes staring at the teapot on the table, unable to make up his mind. As long as he shoots out the teacup in his hand, the old gardener will never be able to tell the secret of the day. In the end, Luo Feng sighed and went out.
An old man is so innocent that he would rather be in danger than kill innocent people in vain. This is Luo Feng who walks the rivers and lakes with the word "righteousness", whether it is Luo Feng, the original owner of this body, or Luo Yefeng, who now controls this body. There is one thing they have in common, and that is morality!
Luo Feng stood under the porch and looked at the twilight night, and he felt a trace of oppressive atmosphere. I don't know if Gu Xiaodong found Mo Yu? Did they go well!
Mo Yu appeared with a food box. His slender figure and upright posture give people the feeling that he is the son and brother of a family. Say he's a gardener, and no one will believe him.
Luo Feng looked at Mo Yu and suddenly felt that he and Mo Yu had made a serious mistake, that is, they were not good at disguise. An old gardener can see the flaws, so can the long-established officialdom thorn history not see it?
Mo Yu looked at Luo Feng, whose smile was slowly disappearing, and was very puzzled. The fact that a person's expression changed so quickly could only show that his heart had changed at this moment.
"What? What was found? Mo Yu asked worriedly.
"Let's go! Go in and say! Luo Feng and Mo Yu entered the door one after another.
As soon as he entered the door, Luo Feng froze. The old gardener was gone, and the windows on the side of the house were wide open. He fled? But why didn't you hear a single movement?
"What's wrong?" Mo Yu put the food box on the table.
"Our whole plan may have failed!" Luo Feng walked back to the table. His hand rested on the table, and there was a hint of regret in his expression. Mo Yu looked at Luo Feng's solemn expression, and also felt the urgency of the situation.
"Did you track it successfully?"
"Hmmm! Their gifts this time were stacked in a warehouse in Lijiazhuang outside the city, where there were also people on duty in rotation. Mo Yu recalled.
"You may have been exposed! But we'll do it. Luo Feng sat down in his chair. He's already figured out how to deal with it. It's just that whether this old gardener will ruin the whole plan, he has no bottom in his heart. But now he can only go to the end.
"They found out who I am?" Mo Yu asked incredulously. He didn't feel like he was showing any flaws.
"Your temperament betrays you! All right! You continue to be your gardener. Don't let Lord Thorn know that you have been suspected by him, and if you are in danger, you will evacuate quickly! That's an order! The rest is up to me and Gu Xiaodong to do! Luo Feng instructed.
"Good!" Mo Yu's biggest advantage is that he doesn't get to the bottom of it, he only does what he should do. Gu Xiaodong is not as good as Mo Yu at this point.
As soon as Mo Yu left, Gu Xiaodong arrived. Luo Feng followed Gu Xiaodong to Lijiazhuang. They hid in a tree in the distance.
"What are you doing so late?" Gu Xiaodong asked puzzled.
"Mo Yu is already under suspicion. They're definitely going to transfer their belongings tonight! Luo Feng looked at the row of warehouses steadily.
Sure enough, as Luo Feng expected, Steward Zhang came with people and carriages. They carried away twelve cartloads of goods.
Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong secretly followed their carriage and horses. Those belongings were actually transported into the Thorn Shi Mansion, which Luo Feng did not expect.
It turns out that there is an underground warehouse in the Thorn Mansion. The location of this storeroom is quite secluded. It was under the ground in a groom's dwelling on the west side of the stable, and when the beds were lifted, the entrance to the storehouse, and the grooms were naturally the guards of the treasures.
Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong gained a lot from this trip. He asked Gu Xiaodong to go to the barracks overnight to find Lu Que and offer a plan.
Gu Xiaodong only looked at Luo Feng differently this time, and he went to the barracks overnight to deliver the letter.
Luo Feng returned to the gardener's residence and it was already late at night. Luo Feng suddenly found that the old gardener was sleeping soundly on the board bed. Luo Feng took a deep breath and walked to the bed, he stood for a long time before lying down next to the old gardener.
Luo Feng didn't sleep well this night. On the one hand, he was worried that things would change, and on the other hand, he was worried about whether the old gardener had any intentions.
The old gardener got up and went to work as usual. Luo Feng also took his household belongings to serve the flowers and plants. The Mansion was as quiet as ever.
It wasn't until sunset in the afternoon that a team of soldiers and horses surrounded the Thorn Shi Mansion and broke the peace in the mansion.
Xu Tingshi calmly walked out of the Assassin's Mansion and asked why. The battalion officer who led the team invited him to Lijiazhuang, saying that Liu Duwei was waiting there. Xu Tingshi followed without saying a word.
Xu Tingshi and the others left on the front foot, and Lu Que's people arrived on the back foot. Lu Que led people to follow Gu Xiaodong all the way to the stable. They rushed into the groom, and there was another fierce battle, and the grooms were all masters. How can Lu Que have a large number of officers and soldiers, and Gu Xiaodong and Mo Yu's skills are extraordinary. Therefore, more than half of those people were killed and injured, and the rest rushed to Lijiazhuang to report the news.
