Chapter XIII: Arrest

The soldiers quickly ran in front of Dawn and automatically divided into two rows, then got down on one knee. At this time, a middle-aged man in armor walked in front of Tianming from between the two groups of soldiers. That kind of momentum that is not angry but mighty, and Tianming can't help but be awe-inspiring.

The middle-aged man looked very excited, and as soon as he stood still, he asked Tianming with a little suspicion: "This little brother is a descendant of Shushan?"

Tianming was even more puzzled when he heard this, and nodded after a little thought. At this time, the middle-aged man became even more excited. And said respectfully to Tianming: "I don't know if my predecessors can go to the city lord's mansion with me, our city lord is invited." ”

Tianming couldn't help frowning deeply after hearing this, and at the same time said lightly: "Lead the way." ”

Tianming was led by the middle-aged man to the City Lord's Mansion, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Tianming saw an elegant middle-aged man greet him. Respectful voices rang out at the same time.

"I am the city lord of Qingyang Ancient City, Wang Fu, and I sent people out to find my predecessors. If there is anything inconsiderate, I hope that the seniors will forgive me, I don't know if it can be continued in the house?"

Tianming also let down his guard a little when he heard this, and walked directly into the city lord's mansion with the prince. Walking into the City Lord's Mansion, Tianming just casually glanced at the mansion and set his eyes on Wang Fu.

As soon as Wang Fu saw Tianming, he hurriedly knelt on the ground on his knees, and cried at the same time: "I ask my predecessors to make decisions for me." ”

Seeing this, Tianming hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Wang Fu up, and at the same time asked suspiciously: "I don't know what it is, please tell me in detail." You don't have to call me senior, just call me Tianming. ”

With Wang Fu's age, calling Tianming senior did make him very depressed, but who let himself ask for help. Hearing Tianming say this, Wang Fu adjusted his mood a little and said: "Foolish brother, how old are you, let's call you brother." Brother Tianming, I've been looking for the monk for two months. Although there are many monks in this Qingyang City, no one is willing to help, and even those who are willing to do so have offered some conditions that I can't afford, and these two months have really tormented me to death. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Fu couldn't help but shed tears again. After a slight pause, he continued: "Two months ago, a monk suddenly appeared in my Qingyang City, and he often stole silver taels, causing the rich merchants in my city to steal frequently. If this continues, I'm afraid that I, the lord of the city, will come to an end. So I hope that Brother Tianming will help my brother, no matter whether he succeeds or not, he will be rewarded in the future. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Fu directly bent down and bowed to Tianming.

Tianming did not directly agree, but directly asked a few questions. After Wang Fu answered, Tianming frowned. I don't know what the other party's cultivation is, and if I meet a master with my current cultivation, I'm afraid that my life will be difficult to protect. However, the person appears to be stealing and rarely hurting. Moreover, the strong have the arrogance of the strong, and they should not obtain silver taels in this way, so it seems that his cultivation may not be very high.

Thinking of this, Tianming agreed, but Tianming still couldn't figure it out a little. Because of its unique nature, the cultivation realm has some special regulations. One thing that almost all cultivators must keep in mind is that all cultivators are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the world, and if there are special circumstances, they must be supported by large sects, otherwise they will be removed from the list of cultivators. This matter can be big or small, and once it is known to one's own enemy, it is completely possible to use this excuse to kill him.

Slowly, it's getting late. Qingyang City also became quiet. The nights have not been peaceful lately, and the originally lively nights have become eerie because of this. The shops closed their doors and looked after their belongings.

At this time, only Tianming was still walking slowly on the street, and he knew that as soon as this person was discovered, he would be arrested. And Wang Fu was indeed well prepared, he had already deduced where that person would start, otherwise Tianming of such a big Qingyang City would not be able to run at all.

During the day, Wang Fu had already made arrangements, and now all the major shops had prepared a signal flare. As soon as the signal flare sounds, Tianming will rush to the scene as soon as possible. But after half a night, I still didn't notice any flares.

Just when Tianming was about to go back to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss countermeasures again, a signal flare sounded in the north not far from him, and Tianming couldn't help but feel refreshed when he heard it. It seems that this person is waiting for everyone to fall asleep before he can do it. But I'm afraid it's going to be planted this time, and almost all the large and medium-sized shops are fully prepared tonight, as long as they find this thief, they will drag it down and buy enough time for Tianming.

Tianming rushed there as fast as he could, and at this time, two teams of people had already arrived before him and surrounded the shop, leading the team was the middle-aged man who Tianming had seen during the day, and he was also the captain of the second team of the Qingyang Guard.

Tianming landed in the center of the encirclement in a light leap, and it turned out that the signal flare was the owner of a pawnshop, which had been protected by the soldiers at this time. When they saw someone leaping forward from the rear, the soldiers panicked, but when they saw the people coming, they were reassured, and they also knew something about what happened during the day.

Seeing that Tianming had come, the middle-aged man led by him walked over quickly, and said respectfully: "Senior, the thief has been surrounded, just in the shop in front of him, because I have been leading the team to patrol this area, so I saw the signal and surrounded it as soon as possible." ”

After hearing this, Tianming couldn't help asking, "Is there anyone else in the store?"

At this time, the shopkeeper was also near Tianming, although he didn't understand why there was such a young man, but seeing that everyone seemed to be in awe, he hurriedly replied: "The villain has already sent the rest of the family away, leaving only two guys, and now they have escaped with me." The man didn't stop us. ”

Tianming was very puzzled when he heard this, and he didn't understand what this person's purpose was. After a little contemplation, he was the first to walk into the shop. Seeing this, the soldiers in the rear only continued to be on guard outside to prevent the thieves from escaping.

As soon as Tianming walked into the shop, he saw a masked man in a night suit standing opposite, this person tensed his body the moment he stepped into the shop, because he could feel the flow of true yuan in this person's body. I'm afraid that tonight, I will be trapped here, and it is also because the city lord has found this person to deal with him.

Seeing that the man had been staring at him, Tianming took the lead in asking, "I know that you are a cultivator, and you must know the purpose of my coming here." But I still want to ask, don't you know that monks are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the world, and if they are discovered, they will definitely be destroyed by the cultivators. ”

Hearing Tianming's words, the man in black was obviously shocked, but he didn't answer, but said lightly: "I'm afraid that so many people dare to come to round up me today because of you, I didn't expect that the city lord who had posted a notice for more than a month really found a monk to deal with me." ”

Tianming immediately understood everything when he heard it, no wonder he would be noticed as soon as he entered the city, and everything behind him was clear.
