Chapter 13: Suspicious Thieves

"Shop, three Hu cakes, two bowls of mutton steamed buns, and more cumin." , Jiang Wei said a word to Xiao Er, and entered the store with Bao Yuanqian.

"Eh....", Bao Yuanqian stopped Xiao Er, who was about to turn around, raised five fingers at him and smiled: "Five Hu cakes, three bowls of mutton steamed buns, bring them quickly!" ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Bao Yuanqian, and then shouted and entered the back kitchen.

Jiang Wei looked at Bao Yuanqian, who was smiling evilly, his cheeks twitched, and he secretly scolded his mother, "Eating poor together?" ”

Jiang Wei carried Bao Yuanqian into the Acropolis of Suzhou, Bao Yuanqian did not return for many days, and wanted to go home to find Uncle Bao and his younger brother, but Jiang Wei said that he escaped death, and he took the wind and dust for him, and invited him to eat and drink a morning meal.

Since Jiang Weidu has spoken, how can Bao Yuanqian, a dog friend, let go of this opportunity to kill him?

Jiang Wei straightened the collar, stroked the hem of the soap clothes, and sat down steadily.

After a while, the shopkeeper brought the food, and Jiang Wei looked at the delicious food on the table as if it was no longer delicious, but his own white flowers and silver....

How many dollars does he have a little soap in a month? The Yamen of the Guard House had a serious habit of withholding money, and he suffered greatly from it.

Although the circulating coins in the early Ming Dynasty were Ming treasure banknotes, there were exceptions in this northwest border.

This place trades with the merchants of the Western Regions and various ethnic minorities, and there are also many Hu merchants doing business in this Suzhou Weili, and others do not recognize the banknotes of the government. So the treasure money is here..... and not in circulation.

Silver is hard currency!

Bao Yuanqian was unceremoniously, squatting on the bench and reaching out to break the mutton soup under the Hu cake, and made it with a mouth full of oil.

Jiang Wei looked at Bao Yuanqian, who was presumptuous, and couldn't help but shake his head, and put a piece of Hu cake on the table with a pestle of chopsticks.

"Harm, don't feel sorry for your broken silver with three melons and two dates." , Bao Yuanqian saw that Jiang Wei's face was painful, and his mouth was stuffed with bubble buns and muttered.

Bao Yuanqian leaned in as he spoke, leaned over to Jiang Wei and whispered: "I made a windfall outside the gate this time, how can I forget you?" When the time comes, take the time to take it and take it to marry your 'Yin Lihua'! ”

Jiang Wei saw him muttering, smiling evilly, and didn't bother to talk to him.

Bao Yuanqian pestered: "Old Jiang, you were born at the wrong time." If it were a few hundred years later, in the era of my hometown, you would be a male star who fascinated thousands of girls, would there be a shortage of women? As long as you Brother Jiang beckons, it is a lot of women drilling into your arms, so why bother with that woman? ”

"I don't know what it is...", Jiang Wei saw that he was talking some nonsense again, so he didn't bother to talk to him.

"Hehe, why don't you have a wife, I want to say that you don't have a tree....."

"Damn, I'm tired of it."

At this time, four or five strong men in armor walked into the store, and the sound was like a Hong Zhong interrupting Bao Yuanqian's words.

These people didn't look like ordinary soldiers, but like junior officers like Xiaoqi Zongqi, and a few people sat down and smashed Fan Yangli on the table on their heads.

"Fuck, this order from above is really changing day by day, yesterday we moved to Xitunwei, and today we let us go back the same way? Isn't this fucking toss-up?! ”

"But it's not, two days ago, we walked from Zhenyi for two days to this Acropolis, and this morning we got the news, and we ordered to leave before the evening and return to Zhenyi the same way, and the soldiers in my hands are about to break Lao Tzu's backbone!"

"it!"

A few people complained one by one, Bao Yuan chewed something and listened, but his eyes looked at Jiang Wei with a sad face.

"Old Jiang, what's wrong?"

Jiang Wei took a sip of tea, looked at Bao Yuanqian with a worried face, and said in a low voice: "Besides, these things are caused by your group of people who are out of the customs." ”

"Oh?"

Jiang Wei saw that Bao Yuanqian didn't understand the reason, so he buried himself and whispered: "You are a group of sixteen people, and fourteen people are missing, and several of them are the general banner, small banner and other elites in the army. ”

"I can't find their bodies this time, so I can only secretly suggest that Commander Deng change the original deployment of troops in case of accidents. However, the political envoy knew that there was a troop transfer for no reason, so he questioned Commander Deng. Commander Deng couldn't tell him the real reason, and it was so consumed to expose the disappearance of Gao Zongqi and others. ”

When Bao Yuanqian heard this, he realized in his heart that it was Jiang Wei's idea.

It's not that Commander Deng is full of food and play, but that the command has divided the power, one person talks about the east and the other says the opposite, and in the end, it is the soldiers below who are tossed.

Hiss..... But in this case, Jiang Wei is afraid of......

"Old Jiang, you don't mean ....."

Jiang Wei frowned slightly and said: "Just in case, there have been a lot of unidentified Fanmen and Tartars in the north in this Suzhou Acropolis recently, and the motives are unclear, so I can only suggest taking precautions." ”

Bao Yuanqian listened and thought about Jiang Wei's words, which did make sense.

Jiang Wei's talent is known to him, Wu Ke is a general, and Wen Ke is strategizing. His vigilance and strategic vision are not comparable to ordinary people, and since Jiang Wei said so, then he can't say anything more.

After eating, the two left the store and shuttled through the crowded long street, ready to go home to see Uncle Bao.

Bao Yuanqian bumped into a person head-on, the person wearing a felt hat seemed to be a Mongolian, Bao Yuanqian was knocked on his side by him, and Bao Yuanqian was so angry that he scolded the man.

I saw that the man did not apologize or look back, but just hurried back and forth.

Bao Yuanqian suddenly had a flash of inspiration, touched the green bead chain in the jacket around his waist, reached in and touched his heart coldly, and secretly said badly!

"Catch the thief!!" The man was astonished and ran away.

As soon as Bao Yuanqian jumped, he wanted to catch up, but his butt hurt so much that he couldn't open his legs.

"Stay still!"

I saw Jiang Wei dodge and rush away, Jiang Wei is good at skills and strong feet, but the thief is extremely flexible in the flow of people, and he flashed into a small alley as soon as he slipped through the smoke, and when he looked back, he saw that Jiang Wei's shadow was gone.

The thief smirked and turned away.

As soon as he turned around, a fist appeared in front of him, and he only felt a pain in his cheeks, and he fell to the ground, dizzy.

Jiang Wei picked up the green bead chain in his hand and was about to leave, but saw the thief on the ground get up and take out the short knife on his waist, and muttered something in his mouth.

Jiang Wei looked sideways, and saw two accomplices with knives also appearing behind him.

The three of them drew their knives and slashed, Jiang Wei dodged a knife for an inverted iron plate bridge, and reflexively hit the thief in the jaw with a whip leg, Jiang Wei was extremely strong, and kicked the man off the post and broke a few ribs.

The two people in the back just arrived at the knife, Jiang Wei did not sheath the sword at his waist, and his left hand was used as a blade sword with a knife ring to push forward, and it was in the abdomen of that person, and the person knelt down in pain.

At the same time, he reached out with his right hand, held the veins of the other person's knife-holding hand, and with a little force, the person dropped the short knife in pain and screamed.

In just a few breaths, Jiang Wei had already put down the three of them, and turned his head away with a cold snort.

When passing by the Mongolian thief who stole the chain of green beads of Bao Yuanqian, Jiang Wei seemed to have discovered something.

When he bent over, he saw a wolf tooth made of white animal bones, which was originally in this person's arms, but it fell out after being kicked by Jiang Wei.

I saw that the two accomplices behind me looked very nervous, and they wanted to step forward, but they didn't dare to step forward when they saw Jiang Wei squinting at him.

Jiang Wei picked up the wolf tooth and observed it carefully.

He seemed to have seen it somewhere, and it looked familiar.

The identities of these three thieves may not only be as simple as thieves, but may also have other identities.

When Jiang Wei was about to take down these three people and take a closer look, he heard "whoosh!" in his ears. A few breaking winds sounded.

Jiang Wei hurriedly dodged and retreated, and the original place had already been pierced by several crossbow arrows, and the arrow feathers trembled, thrilling.

"Whoosh!" , a few more arrows, Jiang Wei hid behind the head of the column, only to hear the sound of arrows piercing into the head of the column breaking wood, and it took a long time before stopping.

Jiang Wei leaned over and looked around, only to see that except for the crossbow arrows in one place, it was empty.

The three of them ran away.

"Damn it!" , Jiang Wei is unwilling, these people have a problem!!
