Mu Cheng and Li Yiru just wanted to nod, but Bai Ling suddenly seemed to remember something, and his speed under his feet slowed down, "Wait......"

“…… What do you think of again? ”

"I think we can go to that game tonight." Bai Ling said softly.

"What are you going to do?"

"Rest, hide and search by the way." Bai Ling replied, "Tonight's game should be the safest place." ”

……

By the time the three of them arrived at the "Yongping Dart Bureau", the neighborhood was still quiet.

It's just that the wind suddenly picked up in the second half of the night, and the night sky, which had been clear, suddenly looked like it was about to rain.

The door of the dart board was closed, but the courtyard was full of night watchmen.

Mu Cheng was obviously already an old Jianghu, he controlled the rhythm of the march of the three at the front of the team, Li Yiru followed in the middle a little breathlessly, and Bai Ling was in charge of the back of the hall.

After entering the gate here, Mu Cheng quickly understood why Bai Ling thought of coming this way-because this dart game is really magnanimous, with a two-entry courtyard in front of it, and a wall in the back, connected to a simple courtyard, with no bricks on the ground, all of which are solid loess.

There were dozens of large tents in this storehouse, all of which were unlit, except for candles in the stone houses at the entrance of the courtyard.

But in the aisles outside the tents, the storerooms were lit up by blazing torches, and in each of these aisles were a few young men on duty.

They leaned back in their places boredly, kept their voices down and chatted with some meat jokes, and as soon as they laughed loudly, there would be scolding from the stone house, ordering the young men to stand guard.

It seems that this is the temporary warehouse of the dart board.

The trio hid in the shadows of a concave corner, observing the Night's Watchman's patrol patterns.

Li Yiru has been following Mu Cheng, he looked at the cloudy sky where the moon was no longer visible, "Brother Mu...... When are we going to get there? ”

"Shh Mu Cheng said softly, "Don't speak. ”

Mu Cheng looked ahead vigilantly, and after a long while, he took the two people behind him around and around, bypassing the night watchman's gaze at a very clever angle, and finally ran quickly into a tent at the very edge of the southwest corner.

The tent was pitch black and full of sandbags, and a few people fumbled their way to the side away from the entrance before sitting down with relief.

Finally it was raining outside, and the raindrops were beating down on the tents.

"It's so exciting!" Li Yiru lowered his voice and shouted, and the sound of him sitting down suddenly came from the darkness.

The other two also sat down slowly, and Mu Cheng looked at Bai Ling's side in the dark, "Why do you say that this place is the safest?" ”

Bai Ling laughed a few times, "If I say I'm guessing, will Brother Mu beat me?" ”

Mu Cheng snorted, "It's not funny...... The reason? ”

"That scar man at night is the dart master here." Bai Ling said softly, "Although I don't know what they want to do with arresting people, they must be inseparable from the Huizhou branch of the Yongping Dart Bureau." ”

"That fat man just said that I was a remnant of the blue-robed bandits." Li Yiru whispered, "Really...... Didn't the blue-robed bandits be exterminated by the emperor a few years ago? ”

"The Qingpao bandit and Jian'an Pavilion are connected together, and he said that you are the remnant of the Qingpao bandit, which means that you are against the party." Bai Ling said softly, "The kind that will rebel." ”

Li Yiru shuddered at this time.

He was stunned for a moment, "Then we ran away like this, wouldn't he-"

"That's why we're going to tie up the fat man and send him to the city gate," Bai Ling said softly, "Generally speaking, the city defense of the state capital and the local yamen are parallel, and there is no clear jurisdiction between them.

"If the city defense side wants to investigate the ins and outs of the matter, it is impossible to bypass the inn," Bai Ling continued, "and now the inn can be a bunch of strong men who are fascinated...... They can't cover it if they want to. ”

The more Mu Cheng listened, the more he felt a chill in his back, and he was about to ask a question, when he heard Bai Ling continue.

"The fat man wants to get away with it, and most of the time he wants to push the three of us on all these things that happened in the inn. At this time, in the middle of the night, I have to inform the Shangguan again, and I have to treat the newly recruited co-operatives...... It's enough for them to be busy for a while. ”

"Speaking of that fat man, if he wants to protect himself, he must find a way to keep this place. Because since the government's recruitment of co-operatives is involved in the Yongping Dart Bureau, no matter what kind of transaction they have made, they will make profits by using such things as transporting grain and grass, and once they are discovered, it will be a death. ”

Bai Ling snapped his fingers very lightly, "So I think tonight is the safest game here, and tomorrow it may not be." ”

Li Yiru scratched his head thoughtfully.

Mu Cheng on the side hugged his arms, "What about after dawn?" By then, he has finished his lie, and he will arrest us in the whole city, what are you going to do? ”

"Let him be round, it's not so easy to lie." Bai Ling stretched, "Let's get a good night's sleep first, and then think about tomorrow." ”

A heavy sigh came from Mu Cheng's side.

Admittedly, there is some truth to this speculation, but it is not 100% safe - if the fat official showed too many horses and feet and directly caused the matter to be exposed, then the other officials would be the first to chase after him.

"That's all it takes, it's still more than two hours before dawn." Mu Cheng said in a low voice, "Let's take turns to keep watch at night, I'll come first." ”

"yes, okay." Li Yiru and Bai Ling responded at the same time.

Each of them adjusted the thick sacks behind them, pushed and pulled them out of a certain angle, and then gently rested on them.

In the dark, Li Yiru suddenly heard a slight metal collision, the voice was very crisp, Bai Ling looked at the source of the sound, "What sound?" ”

"Ah, I'll count the money first." Li Yiru replied softly, "You sleep with yours first." ”

"Gold Leaf?" Bai Ling asked.

"How do you know?" Li Yiru was a little strange, and then a little surprised, "Can you also hear and distinguish things?" ”

"I can't." Bai Ling shook her head, and just as she wanted to explain the reason, she heard Li Yiru say "Huh".

"Why is there a piece missing...... I lost my money? Li Yiru muttered, and then became a little helpless, "I'm so careful, why are people stealing my money?" ”

"Money is something outside the body, so if you lose it, you lose it." Mu Cheng said in a low voice, "I don't think you look like a family that is short of money, go to sleep." ”

In the darkness, there was the sound of Li Yiru scratching his ears and cheeks.

"Are these gold leaves precious?" Bai Ling asked.

"No, it's all ordinary brown gold, nothing prec......ious," Li Yiru whispered.

This sentence made Mu Cheng's eyelids jump slightly.

“…… It's a pity that these gold leaves are used by me for self-defense," Li Yiru sighed, "Use one less piece." ”

Bai Ling was a little surprised, "How does the gold leaf defend himself?" ”

"Listen." Li Yiru said softly.

There was a slight cutting sound in the darkness, and then there was a thud, and many tiny particles fell out of the thick sack, and they also rolled to Bai Ling's feet, and she reached out and pinched it, feeling that it was unpeeled rice.

- Li Yiru was like the gold leaf in his hand, and he cut through the thick sack in an instant.
