Killers and ** are known as the two oldest professions in history because they satisfy people's oldest desires for catharsis.

Although Cao Hong was a little happy that his professional nature was praised in this way, he did not support this statement. Because in his opinion, the thief should be the first to appear.

Maslow's theory puts the need for survival first, and illegally reaching out to take other people's property in order to feed and clothe can probably be traced back to the Stone Age. There is a saying in the ancient book "Guangyun": steal, steal. In "Huainanzi", there is also "Chu is good at stealing." ". Even the idiom "rooster crows and dog thieves" emerged from this era.

Therefore, Cao Hong is very puzzled, why do modern Buddhas (thieves) regard the time of the drum flea as the ancestor?

No matter what he said, the success of the plan was still very happy for Cao Hong. Because in his opinion, where there is no professional intelligence, the information provided by the thief is relatively accurate.

The little man walked in front of him with a huge yellow sheep on his back, he was already thin, both his hands and feet and his body skeleton were thin and abnormal, and it didn't take long to hear him gasping for breath.

Cao Hong slowly followed behind with the package in his hand, watching the little man gritted his teeth and walked persistently, and became a little interested in the Buddha of this era.

Observing each other by modern standards, this little man was obviously born to be the material of the Buddha.

The body is thin, but the legs and feet are slender and flexible. He walks quickly, moves lightly and silently, weighs lightly and speaks little, leaving only a layer of shallow footprints on dirt roads, and you can't find it at all if you don't look carefully. Wearing and looking like you can't find it immediately when you throw it into the crowd, and it's very convenient to escape.

The clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, and when we reached the gate of the city, a light rain had already begun to fall.

Cao Hong thought he was going out of the city, but who knew that he turned a corner at the gate of the city and nestled into another arched gate not far away.

"You live here?" Turning through the door, I saw a pile of firewood, and then a small house made of wood that I didn't know where I could get it.

Cao Hong was a little surprised, not because of the fact that this kid was homeless and mixed up like this, but because of the fact that this kid would use the abandoned city gate hole to build his own house.

It's a rare place to shelter from the elements. It seems that this kid is a rare smart person.

"Hmm." The little man nodded, did not open the door and entered the house, but directly put the yellow sheep on the firewood stack, and then got licorice from the side and pressed it on it, turned around and said, "My name is rice, come with me!" ”

Mi turned around to go out, and Cao Hong said, "You just put that yellow sheep here?" Aren't you afraid that someone will take it away when you come back? ”

Mi's expression was calm, and he said lightly: "It's raining today, most of them won't go out, and besides, few people here will come, so it's fine!" We have to move quickly, it's so dark today, I'm afraid the rain won't be light for a while. Cao Hong nodded, said no more, and trotted all the way behind Mi.

Mi is clearly a habitual thief, knows exactly when is the best time to make a move, and has a nimble mind and quick movements. If it weren't for the pitiful lack of thieves at this time, and the idea of making the gang more efficient at all at all, it is estimated that he would have made a career.

The rain in early summer, with a bit of spring coolness, is reducing the heat of the human body piece by piece.

The two of them ran for about twenty minutes in the gradually heavy rain, twisting and turning around for about 20 minutes, before they stopped outside a courtyard wall.

"Right here?" Cao Hong stretched out his hand and wiped the water on his face and asked.

"That's right!" Mi nodded, ignoring the rain flowing down his face like a small stream from the thick bun, and said: "I don't know what this place is, I just know that every three or five days, different people send horses, more than a dozen, as few as one or two, and those who come will not refuse." Every two months, an army would come and take all the horses away. ”

Cao Hong's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "Are all the war horses sent?" ”

Mi glanced at Cao Hong suspiciously, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Cao Hong was stunned for a moment, then listened to Mi continue: "I don't know what a war horse is, I only know that the horses sent here are better than what I have seen in other places, and even the horses used by several noble families in the city are not as good as those here." ”

Cao Hong nodded. laughed at himself in his heart: What's wrong with himself, he unconsciously saw him as a modern Buddha.

"When was the last time the army came?"

"About five days ago!" Mi stood up, and the whole person stuck to the courtyard wall and began to grope.

Cao Hong raised his eyebrows and asked, "In that case, are you sure there are still horses in here?" ”

"I'm sure I saw five horses sent in three days ago." Mi almost pressed her face against the wall, her eyes wide open.

Cao Hong felt a little weird, looking at Mi recalling his series of behaviors in his head, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "You originally wanted to steal these horses?" ”

"How do you know?" Mi raised his head, glanced at Cao Hong with a surprised expression on his face, and stuck it on the wall again, saying, "I've been preparing for a long time, and today is the best time." ”

Cao Hong was silent for a moment and said, "At the beginning, they would reduce the guards? ”

"That's right!" Mi didn't hide it, it seemed that from the moment he completed the yellow sheep transaction, Cao Hong had become his own person. "I don't know why, every time the horses are taken away for half a month, it is the time when the guards are the least and most metabolized, especially in such a rainy day, no one can see it."

The corners of Cao Hong's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart: Sure enough, he was born to be the material of the Buddha.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the raindrops hit the muddy street and splashed a large amount of mud spots, Cao Hong subconsciously dodged to the side, and put his hands on the wall, but he thought that the courtyard wall seemed to disappear suddenly, Cao Hong stumbled, and the whole person fell in.

Mi was slightly stunned and said, "It turned out to be over there!" ”

"Damn, this is your backhand?" Cao Hong got up and touched the muddy water on his face.

"Yes, it took a lot of time to get it." Mi picked up a piece of wall skin from the ground and handed it to Cao Hong, saying, "The wall of this courtyard is too high, and people can come and go without hindrance, but the horses can't get out." The only entrance and exit door is guarded by guards day and night, and if you want to succeed, you naturally have to think of another way. ”

Cao Hong looked at the thin wall skin in his hand, and glanced at the cover that was connected to the courtyard wall, and he couldn't see the flaws at all, and the corners of his mouth twitched: Your sister, what kind of thief is this, it is clear that the first thief in history.

Shaking his head, he threw away the wall skin casually, and asked, "Since you are ready, why do you want to share my share?" ”

"It's just a good deal! This way! Mi didn't care about the heavy rain at all, and walked away, "In such weather, I can control up to three horses by myself, and any more will delay my degree." The rest of the horses should be exchanged for some meat rather than staying here! ”

Cao Hong smiled and said, "What's more, you need a substitute ghost to give these obviously energetic owners a clear target to pursue after the fact!" Yes, you are very smart, such a smart person, it is impossible not to have a surname. Without the accumulation of family-style knowledge and insight, it is impossible to cultivate a character like you. ”

Mi paused for a moment and said: "You are also not simple, although you are dressed decently, there is always a feeling of incompatibility in your speech and actions, you are not from the Qin Kingdom, are you very curious about my surname?" ”

Cao Hong shook his head and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not interested!" I'm here to get horses, and I don't care how they came to be, who provided them, or what the consequences were! ”

Mi turned his head, looked at Cao Hong in silence for a while, nodded, turned around and said, "Actually, I need an assistant!" ”

"As long as I can do it, it's no problem!" Cao Hong nodded. Substitute for the dead ghost or something, Cao Hong really doesn't care. It was only a month since his mission, and with the current level of information transmission, by the time they appeared, he would have already returned to the present world.

Judging from the distance shown in the book, Jing Ke has already run almost one hundred and fifty kilometers, and there are still more than twenty days left in the mission, and horses are necessary to catch up. So Cao Hong, who has always been known for his prudence, doesn't care about these details.

The courtyard was empty, except for a few trees in the corners, and the rest of the place was haystacks. At this time, it was bathed in heavy rain under the cover of oilcloth. The ground in the yard is level, and it looks like it must have taken a lot of effort to tidy up. There are two large stables on the side, and the manger is amazingly long, and it is absolutely no problem to fit a thousand horses.

"There!" Mi stretched out his hand and pointed in a direction, Cao Hong stared at it, and sure enough, he saw that in the corner of the stable on the left, there were more than a dozen horses gathered, yellow, white, black and mixed colors, most of them were calmly grazing with their heads down, ignoring the heavy rain outside.

Cao Hong saw the horse, his mood was a lot more relaxed, he calmed down and looked left and right carefully for a while, and nodded: "I don't see anyone, let's go!" ”

The two of them trotted all the way and rushed straight into the stable.

The horses were getting closer and closer, and just when Cao Hong decided to get the horse and flash for a while, he was slammed by the scene in front of him.

"This, what's going on?" Cao Hong glared at Mi, pointed vigorously at the horses in the stable, which were held up by a huge metal cage, and asked loudly.

Mi was very calm and said, "That's why I said I need an assistant!" ”

Cao Hong glared at him for a long time, seeing that Mi didn't blush at all, he didn't bother to pay attention to it, and directly turned around to observe the huge metal cage.

While watching, Cao Hong muttered in his heart: This is really weird, weird!

Since ancient times, I have never heard of using metal cages to hold horses, although there are special containers for transporting elephants or lions and tigers and other beasts in modern times, but the metal of this era is a rare item, and at this time the Qin State was at war, and it was not made into a blade to be sent to the battlefield, but it was brought here to imprison the horses, which is simply unreasonable!
