Chapter 20: The Thousands of Dollars Don't Come Back Yet
Qiao'er had already fallen asleep, and the courtyard was silent at the moment.
Under normal circumstances, the third to fourth watch is the time when people enter deep sleep. Therefore, people who go out at night usually choose to go out at this point.
Presumably, in today's Guogong Mansion, in addition to Yun Qixi, there is at least one person who can't sleep.
Thinking of this, she went back to the bedside and did one thing before feeling the door. Yun Qixi quickly climbed to the roof of the house along a tree in the yard and overlooked the situation in the entire mansion. Sure enough, the lights were still on in Yun Lanyue's room.
Oh, last night, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep, because she was going to be the crown princess. Tonight, she still couldn't sleep, because the candle night in the cave room was like this.
This life is really like a roller coaster, with big ups and downs.
Crossing the roofs of the houses with a light car, leaving the house, and standing behind the Guogong Mansion, Yun Qixi suddenly reacted to one thing.
I'll go, she's different now, can't she just come out the back door? Can you walk on the wall with cornices? It's really funny!
The dark sky, a full moon hangs high, sprinkling a good moonlight.
Yun Qixi came to the tree and looked at it, and suddenly the tiger's body was shocked.
Where she once buried the bag, there are traces of being dug up. She was so nervous that her scalp tingled, and she scratched the loose soil with her bare hands.
It's gone? How can it be? It's so weird and tight, who would know there's a treasure down here?
The night was surprisingly quiet.
Yun Qixi's eyes narrowed suddenly, and his sensitive ears were pricked up. Because she seemed to hear a slight sound.
In the dark night, her eyes lit up, she listened to the voice, and her gaze quickly swept to the left not far away.
I saw a small figure hidden at the base of the wall.
Yun Qixi has extraordinary vision, especially at night. Even though the man was hidden in the shadows of the moonlight, she could still see clearly. The man was sitting against the base of the wall, pulling a bag.
Without a moment's hesitation, Yun Qixi ran over.
The man heard the sound of hurried footsteps, looked up, and shook in fright. Instinctively, he quickly stood up and ran.
Yun Qixi chased after her, because she had already seen clearly that it was her bag that he was carrying in his hand.
But although the man in front of him was small, he was very fast, and he was very smart, and he did not take the main road, but walked through the alleys. This is quite a loss for Yun Qixi who is not familiar with the geographical environment.
At this moment, she saw a figure suddenly walking slowly at the mouth of the alley in front of her.
If he saw the savior, Yun Qixi shouted while running, "Catch the thief!" Catch the thief! ”
It stands to reason that in the dead of night, she deliberately raised her voice again, and she should have heard it from a hundred meters away. But Yun Qixi shouted several times, and the man was stunned as if he hadn't heard it, and his footsteps were not disordered.
Damn, it turns out that no matter what era it is, people are the same reality? There is no Lei Feng spirit at all. All are driven by profit.
Yun Qixi didn't have time to think about it, and shouted, "Help me catch him, ten taels of silver as a reward." ”
The man did not move, nor did he look back.
"Twenty taels."
“……”
"Thirty taels"
“……”
Yun Qixi doubted, is that person deaf?
For her, although there was a huge amount of money in that bag, it was more of a thing that could not be bought by thousands of dollars in this era.
"Catch him, and all the money in the bag will be yours, and the rest will be mine." Yun Qixi is really a bloody investment.
"A word?" A nice voice was sent by the night wind.
At this time, Yun Qixi had already run to the man's side, and saw that the man was wearing a felt hat with a low brim, covering his eyes. He was facing in the direction of Yun Qixi, waiting for her answer.
I wasn't deaf. It's a big loss!
However, I can't bear the child to catch the wolf, and the daughter will come back after being scattered, but the treasures in the bag will not come back even if they are thousands of dollars.
Seeing the person who stole the bag running farther and farther, she immediately gritted her teeth.
"Okay, that's a deal."
As soon as these words came out, Yun Qixi saw the corner of his lips under the brim of his hat hooked, and the man had already rushed out.
I don't know if he was really running fast, or the person in front of him was slow, and he didn't run far before he caught up.
Yun Qixi ran a few steps to follow, snatched the bag, and glared at the bag thief breathlessly.
However, the words that were supposed to explode were blocked in the throat.
The person in front of him was thin, he looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, with a dirty face, ragged clothes, a pair of straw sandals under his feet that were already torn, and the whole looked very shabby.
Little beggars?
Yun Qixi is moved by compassion again, a half-grown child like this is a beggar, usually because of the miserable life experience behind him, not to mention a good childhood.
So, when her scolding that couldn't get on the stage came out, it became like this.
"You said you, at such a young age, why don't you learn well? Learning to steal? ”
The little beggar was a little aggrieved, lowered his head and whispered, "I didn't steal." ”
"And said that you didn't steal it, everyone got all the stolen goods, and they quibbled."
Yun Qixi adheres to the principle of tireless teaching, and patiently guides him to recognize his mistakes and return to the right path.
The little beggar became more and more aggrieved, and his face was bitter.
"I really didn't steal!"
