Chapter 020: Star-Eyed Bat

Star-Eyed Bat (top)

Tiehu looked at the night watchman, and when he wanted to "greet" him, he saw that the brother's mouth had been tightly blocked by the white hand of the military advisor, and the slender fingers were so that the flesh of the night watchman's face was deeply dented. At this time, the night watchman's arm was still half-raised, stiffly attached to the air, so the iron tiger looked in the direction that the night watchman was pointing, and there was nothing else in the dark night.

The twenty-odd people who had just arrived saw that nothing strange had happened. scolded, "I haven't seen the local doll in the world, and the blue star hasn't seen anything!"

Although they said this sentence a little against their will, and they may not have seen the blue star, they still lay down and fell asleep. When it was once again in the dead of night, and only the "crackling" between the dry wood and the fire could be heard, the military advisor came to the night watchman's ear and whispered, "What was your name just now?" With a shallow smile on his fair face, he seemed to want to praise the Night's Watchman, who was still very alert, though some of them were soldiers.

"I was just adding wood to the campfire when suddenly the flames rose so high that they almost hit the treetops. I just stared at the bright red flame. Suddenly, I saw the stars fly away, and I saw the stars with black wings. ”

The military advisor is good at observing things, but he has no habit of looking at the stars, and there is a trace of sadism in his heart. Alas, this brother is so tired that he can't even lie to a child and talk nonsense. However, the military advisor is a strict person, does not like to jump to conclusions, and he has a keen perception ability (similar to the sixth sense) when he was young, and this forest does have a strange atmosphere. So he dragged his tired body and looked up at the night sky, which was pitch black, densely covered with dazzling blue stars, so beautiful! The bright star seems to be very close to him, and he can hold it in his hand as soon as he stretches out his hand. At this time, the military advisor also had the urge to stretch out his arm and give it a try.

At this time, he suddenly came to his senses. How can you see the stars!

This is an old forest with heavy leaves and dense branches, and when it travels during the day, it is not appropriate for the sunlight to shine in, so how can it be possible to see the stars clearly at night? Either the leaves on the trees cannot be retracted at night; either the sky in the sick state is lower than the outside, or the ground in the sick state is higher than the outside. None of this is possible.

It seems that there is only one truth, and these shiny "stars" are not stars.

Curiosity kills people, this is a famous saying of the military advisor, if it weren't for his curiosity at the beginning, maybe it would not have caused the five surnames of Li Fan Wang and Liu Sun to be connected by the imperial court, and now it will not fall to this, like a lost dog.

The warlord thought to himself, no matter what elven rat monsters were, as long as they were safe with us. So he sat down next to the night watchman again, and began to talk, who let one be a responsibility, and the other had no sleep.

The night watchman thought that the military advisor was cold, and he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to talk to him. It is also a joy, the mood of sitting alone and waiting alone late at night, and people who don't keep vigil won't understand.

"My name is Meng Mao'er, I am a leveling person, and I haven't done anything great. Alas, it was only after making some fox friends that I fell into this field. Every time they went to a big house to steal something, they always liked to let me control the wind, because I was timid, and when I heard a strange noise and saw someone who could, I would learn to catow and inform my friends. Although sometimes there was no one to watch the night when I called, it was just that I was nervous and misheard and misread the false alarm, resulting in nothing being caught, but it was much better than losing my life. That's why they don't call me by my name, they all like to call Meng Mao'er. Every time he steals, he likes to take me with him, although there is not much work to do with the wind, but it is also a technical job, and the share is no less than that of the people in the house. ”

"It's just a pity that one time we were in trouble. Our group of people all secretly came to Kuai County from razing all the way. I have heard that the wealth and prosperity of Yiyun Country is that walking on the trade street of Yiyun, I don't do any work for a day, as long as I am willing to bend down, I can pick up silver. So a group of us went straight to Yiyun Country without distractions, and the first thing we arrived was the bordering Kuaijun, wanting to make some money with our craftsmanship, and then return to our hometown in style. But I never expected that when I stole for the sixth time, I was put in prison. ”

"But we really didn't do that fucking thing!" Meng Mao'er, who had always looked shy, looked kind and kind, but she didn't expect her emotions to suddenly become excited, and she burst into foul language.

"One day, the sun was up, and a few of us were still asleep in bed, after all, we are all long-term workmen, and it is normal to be sleepy during the day and awake at night. There was a knock on the door, and I was shaken. We are renting a mud house in the most inconspicuous slum lane in Kuai County. Not to mention the remoteness of this place, and it is crowded with people. It is convenient for us to hide ourselves. I opened the door a crack and glanced out. The person who came was steamed bread, who made steamed bread in this alley, got up early every day to steam steamed steamed bread, and when the sky was still bright, he went to Kuai County to sell steamed bread with a flat burden, and the two loads of steamed bread could be sold out in a morning. I don't think it's an outsider, and he's the only one who comes. So they invited him into the house, and the others were almost awake at this hour. He didn't see it. He came in with two empty baskets. I asked him to make it and pour him tea. That's why he's not an outsider because he introduced us to many of our 'deals'. It's equivalent to that he is with us, responsible for stepping on the point. Sometimes, he also contacted the buyers of the stolen goods. Get the money and give him some commission. ”

"The insight of walking the streets and alleys is better than that of us outsiders, and the steamed buns can also be pulled and pulled by locals, who is poor and who is rich, and how rich is oil. His stomach is clear. A few days after we moved to the Slums, he could see what we were up to. Tell us that petty thefts like ours don't make much money by walking through empty doors. If you want to make a lot of money, you have to have the courage to put your hand in the drawer of a big house. At first, we rejected Zhang's proposal because we were not familiar with him for fear that it would be a clichΓ©, and secondly, we were able to get into the big family and we small thieves. So we refused at first. ”

"But the eyes are black, the silver is white, the money is cold, and the heart is hot. And who can not be happy with a large amount of silver? So I went to talk to Mantou Zhang to see what the situation was. One day at noon, I was waiting for him at the door of his house. He was a widower in his forties and fifties, and there was not much in his family. I was stupid, he was shrewd, and he could see my mind at a glance. He said, 'My heart is excited, my eyes are greedy, I will go back and tell you which one you steal will be fine, but when it is done, you will share with me.' His words were full of pride and confidence. ”

"Three or four days later, in the middle of the night, the steamed bun knocked softly on our door, the sound was very small, but all of us could hear it, because our group of people was very energetic at night. I saw through the crack in the door that it was him, and I opened it. He said, 'Is there a business to do?'. ”
