Chapter 32: The Thief
Zero Benzawa sat at the table in the guest room, just like that, quietly thinking about the connection between these clues, and thought about it until the evening.
After thinking about it, Zero Benze got up and pushed open the window and looked outside. There was no one, but the occasional few were soldiers stationed in Wucheng on patrol. Is there a curfew? Is it so strict in such a remote place, is the execution of Tang Law very high, but unfortunately I can't see the night scene of the Tang Dynasty, maybe Shangyuan Energy Conservation can see it?
It's a pity that I don't know if I can see it.
After looking at it with emotion for a while, Zero Benze closed the window again and sat down at the table again.
Light luck spiritual power to warm up the cooled tea, Zero Benze gave himself a cup of tea, and tasted it in such a small sip without lighting a candle.
Sometimes the deep eyes are not focused, as if they are missing something.
Click, click, hiss.
The sound of the rope sounded at the door, and Zero Benze's eyes froze, and he was instantly alert, and quietly pulled out the silk sword from the suitcase and held it in his left hand, and walked to the door to hide.
A small hole was stabbed on the paper paste on the door and window, and a small bamboo pipe quietly stretched in, and the person outside the door blew hard, and the small bamboo pipe spewed out a large amount of white smoke, which filled the entire room!
It's kind of interesting. Zero Benze held his breath and waited to see what happened.
After a few moments, the people outside seemed to be convinced that Zero Benze was asleep.
A simple knife was quietly inserted through the crack in the door, and the wooden latch was opened with the back of the knife.
Smack.
The latch of the door fell, and two figures flashed in, quietly touching the baggage that Zero Benze had placed on the table with suitcases and copper coins.
Dare to love are two thieves, Zero Benze smiled, and closed the door with a bang, although the sound was not too loud, but it startled the two thieves.
As soon as the two thieves turned around, the weapons in their hands were knocked out by Zero Benze, and there were patrolling soldiers on the street, and the two thieves were shocked, but they didn't dare to shout. Gritting his teeth, he threw himself at Zero Benze, and then knocked them to the ground with three punches and two kicks, tying them up with a silk sword.
Crackling.
After lighting the candle, Zero Benze carefully looked at the two people.
Well, aren't they the two people in the corner when he eats on the second floor? A natural evil appearance, a roe head rat eye, it is simply the standard configuration of robbing houses, and I will never forget it once I have seen it.
"Say, What are your names? Why did you break into my room for no reason? I have to let you go into the government to have a board. ”
Anyway, it's okay, let's see how the thieves in the Tang Dynasty are. Zero Benze asked.
The evil-faced man spoke:
"My name is Xing Da, and next to me is my younger brother Xing Er. This hero, the two of us brothers have been planted, let the blade scrape as you like, as long as you don't send us to the government! ”
"yes, yes. You're going to let us go like farts in large numbers. ”
Xing Er also immediately begged for mercy.
Haha, Xing Da, Xing Er. Two stupid thieves, can't they come up with a good pseudonym.
Zero Benze smiled in his heart, but said sharply:
"Say your real name! Report the calendar! Responsible for tomorrow morning, I will immediately press you into the yamen! ”
The two brothers glanced at each other, and shook off their backgrounds in frustration.
It turned out that the two were idlers in a small village in Yongzhou, and they were not brothers at all. The fierce-faced man is called Zhou Dabiao, and the one with the roe head rat is called Luo Yousan.
The two of them have done a lot of stealing chickens and dogs in their village, because they smell the same, so they can be regarded as a pair of bad friends. But they don't farm day by day, but clean up their brains. Later, he was kicked out of the village by the villagers and the village chief, who could not bear it anymore.
The two of them ran into a caravan heading to the Western Regions, when the caravan was recruiting strong men along the road to help unload the caravan and sell all the way, buying and selling all the way, so the two simply followed the caravan to eat.
Just like that, the two came to Wucheng, after all, they are delicious and lazy by nature, so they just do some random guys in the city and make up for life. Suddenly, I saw that Zero Benze was so rich and looked so gentle, but he didn't bring a guard thug, I was afraid that it wasn't the son-in-law who came out to play and practice, so he was simply ready to do a big ticket. 999 starters
Outcome......
"This lord, don't send me to the government in a lot! If you really go to the government, the board is small, and in such a remote place, the government won't directly assign us! ”
Zhou Dabiao had tears in his eyes and pleaded bitterly.
Luo Yousan on the side also had a bitter face.
The acting skills are too poor, and the words are not as good as Xiao Xin. Zero Benze pursed his lips and did not say anything.
After a while, when the two thieves were no longer wailing, he said:
"How long have you two been in this city?"
"Well, about half a year."
Luo Yousan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied.
"Oh, what do you know about the army stationed forty miles away?"
Zero Benze asked.
Zhou Dabiao and Luo Yousan glanced at each other in surprise, and hurriedly lowered their heads and kept silent.
Well? There is a problem. Is it so mysterious, this army? It made the two of them dare not make a sound. However, in this way, they are also exposed, and it is not clear if they have not been contacted, but their appearance is obviously contacted, and they may have been warned. It seems that they have bumped into the treasure, and these two people are still of some use.
Zero Benze secretly analyzed, and then said lightly:
"It seems that I will take you to see the official early tomorrow morning, and I wish you a happy life outside the Saiwai."
"Please don't do it! I said, I said, I can't do it! ”
Luo Yousan hurriedly raised his head and said loudly, Zhou Dabiao on the side looked at him hard, but he didn't see it at all, and hurriedly continued:
"In the past six months, we have followed the local trading house to send wine, vegetables and fruits to that barracks......
"Hey......"
Zhou Dabiao sighed helplessly, and said in his heart, how can it be good now.
Zero Benze listened to Luo Yousan say, it turned out that these two people had sent things to the barracks several times, but every time they went over, they would be warned that if they leaked any news about the barracks, it would be a death sentence!
Is it so strict? Is there something hidden? Zero Benze frowned and then asked:
"Have you seen anything special?"
"Well, there is! Every time we went to that barracks, it was during the day, and only once was at night, and that night we saw that the barracks was painted with something incomprehensible everywhere, and it was still shining. Since that visit, the officers who had asked us to deliver things have been replaced, and we have been ordered not to do this errand again. ”
Luo Yousan hurriedly replied.
What I can't understand is not words, it's patterns, could it be the runes of the formation? Zero Benze raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there anything else weird?" Anything goes! ”
Zhou Dabiao also replied with a broken jar:
"Yes, in addition to specific food and wine, there is also a cart of cinnabar and some female dependents
Rouge, bronze mirrors and other trivial things. ”
Ladies in the barracks? Zero Benzawa sat at the table, stretched out his fingers and slowly tapped the table, frowning and thinking.
