Chapter 222: Catch the Bad Guys
The provincial capital is much larger than Feng'an County, and there are many inns, so I found an inn with a relatively quiet environment to live in, Cheng Zhongqian Cheng Yun has a room, Cheng Yi Cheng Jin has a room, Ling Bao and Xie Wuxiao are both separate rooms, and Ling Bao's room is in the middle, and there are their own people on both sides.
The township test was due soon, so the price of the inn was almost twice as expensive as usual.
Ling Bao exclaimed, "It's so expensive!"
The shopkeeper laughed and said, "You have to come later, the price will have to go up even more."
It's easy to say that the price has risen, but the most feared thing is that there is no good place to live.
In the next few days, many readers came one after another, all dressed up for show, and Cheng Zhongqian would also communicate with them, but more often stayed in the room to review.
That night, Ling Bao had a dream for the first time in a long time.
The time in the dream was supposed to be the day before the exam, and the scene in the dream was the backyard of the inn they were in.
There is a well in the backyard of the inn, according to the shopkeeper, this well cost ten taels of silver, and it is usually this well that manages the eating and drinking of the entire inn.
There was a curfew in the Great Xia Dynasty, and no one cared about the countryside, but there were both watchmen and patrolling officers and soldiers in this provincial capital, and generally after the dusk drum, no one would go out, and they all stayed in their guest rooms honestly, either reading or sleeping.
But the dark backyard suddenly had a sneaky figure.
He was half-covered, unable to see.
Seeing that the figure was a man, tall and thin, it seemed that he was afraid of being discovered, so he kept looking around, walked lightly to the mouth of the well, took out a bag of powder from his arms, opened it and sprinkled it in the well water.
At this time, Lingbao was still wondering what he was doing, until the next day, Cheng Zhongqian, who drank the well water, fell asleep directly until the end of the first day of the exam.
To be precise, he was not alone, the entire inn was unconscious, and the difference was only in the length of time.
People passing by are still strange, the inn is not open today?
I heard that there are a lot of Xiucai who came to take the exam in this inn, why haven't you seen it?
Cheng Zhongqian, who missed the township test, was quite devastated, the township test is held every three years, and he has to wait for another three years if he wants to participate again!
Lingbao, who woke up, sat on the bed and sulked, how could there be such a bad person?!
She was going to find her big brother next door, and she turned her head to the king who was squatting on the bed with an unbelievable expression.
"What's wrong with you, King?" Ling Bao wondered.
The king asked, "Lingbao, did you dream that someone had put sweat medicine in the well water in the backyard of the inn?"
Ling Bao's eyes widened in shock: "How do you know? I haven't said it yet!"
King: "Because I have seen it."
After explaining it clearly, Lingbao asked, "Why is this happening? You couldn't see it before."
The king pondered for a moment and said, "It should be the reason for the last upgrade."
After all, the prophetic dream is related to the pendant, and the pendant is related to it.
That's right, that's for sure!
One person and one cat didn't dwell on this issue for too long, Lingbao changed his clothes and went to find Cheng Yun next door, and told Cheng Yun about his dreams.
Cheng Yun frowned, he didn't see his face......
But it's not a big deal, you just need to know when that person is acting, and you can ambush it in advance.
"Ambush whom?" Cheng Yi, who had just walked to the door, asked excitedly.
That eager to try and eager to go into battle in person.
Cheng Yun: "......"
Ling Bao's eyes lit up, and he tugged at Cheng Yun's sleeve and said, "Let's take the second brother with us, the second brother has great strength and high martial arts, and he will definitely be able to subdue him!"
"Who, who?" Cheng Yi asked anxiously, "Who is subduing?"
Lingbao's little face was serious: "A villain!"
Cheng Yi patted his chest: "That must be subdued!" With me, not a single villain can escape!" He had a resolute expression and a sharp gaze.
Cheng Yun looked at Cheng Jin, who had not spoken, Cheng Jin looked back silently and said, "I want to go too."
The final result was that Xie Wuxian, together with Xie Wuxian, participated in the "catch the bad guys" plan one by one.
The day before the exam, Lingbao and the others all took a good nap during the day.
In the evening, the bustle faded and the inn fell silent.
In the dream, it can only be determined that it is the day before the exam, but the specific time Lingbao can't be determined.
So after most of the people in the inn had rested, Lingbao and they set out.
Sneaking into the backyard with a fire fold, the group had to find a hidden place to hide. qs
Then extinguish the fire and wait for the arrival of the prisoner.
After waiting for a long time, the backyard was quiet, and there was no movement.
The weather in February was still very cold, and Cheng Yun asked in a low voice, "Is it cold?"
Several children shook their heads, wearing very thick clothes, but their ears were a little cold.
Ling Bao couldn't help but scratch his ears, and his white and small ears were a little red. Xie Wuxian saw it, stared at it for a while, stretched out his hand to cover it, and the hot temperature suddenly came.
"It's not cold, is it?" Xie Wuxian asked in a breathless voice.
Ling Bao nodded with crooked eyebrows.
After a while, Ling Bao pulled his hand down, and the back of his hand was cold.
Cheng Yi yawned: "Why hasn't the person appeared yet? Wouldn't you be coming?"
"Probably not." Cheng Yun said.
After waiting for a while, everyone was a little impatient, and finally there was a slight movement!
Ling Bao immediately put up his finger on his pouted mouth: "Shhhhh
The crowd held their breath cooperatively and listened.
The darkness makes the person's vision less clear, but it amplifies the sense of hearing.
Ling Bao could only vaguely see a figure, but his slightly rapid but forcibly suppressed breathing was clearly audible.
When the man walked to the well and took out the powder packet from his arms, Lingbao confirmed that it was this villain!
She was so excited that she accidentally made a little noise, and the man was alert, "Who?!"
He turned his head, but saw a pair of green "eyes", staring directly at him, and immediately trembled in fright, almost peed his pants, and the powder packet shook off his hand and sprinkled it next to the well.
No way? Retribution came so quickly?!
At the same time, Ling Bao shouted, "Catch him!"
The man was startled and hurriedly ran away.
But Cheng Yi's movements were too fast, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a meteor catching the moon, and he instantly "flew" in front of the man, and he didn't know how to do it, so he put the man aside.
The man still wanted to struggle, but Lingbao and the others also ran over and surrounded him. Unless he has wings, he will never be able to escape.
"Let go of me, let go of me!" The man shouted, and continued to struggle.
Lingbao: "Second brother, don't let him go!"
This scoundrel!
Xie Wuxian blew on the fire, and the film suddenly lit up.
Cheng Yun blankly tore off the strip of cloth covering his face and recognized him as one of the candidates for this township examination.
The man's face turned pale, and it was over.
It's all over.
