From Xi to choose clothes, while peeking at Wu Jiang's expression, from Xi glimpsed Wu Jiang looked up at himself, his eyes lit up, secretly handed a look to Lu Lian, Lu Lian immediately walked to Congxi, enthusiastically introduced the style of the dress to Congxi, seeing that Congxi did not particularly like the dress, Lu Lian lowered his voice and said: "If the girl didn't look at it, we still have a half-layer dress upstairs, but the price is a little more expensive, the shopkeeper only took it back not long ago, I thought about adding some patterns and styles to the shop, and when the goods are complete, add a full floor and then sell it to the outside world, I think the girl is very eye-catching, first make an exception to take the girl upstairs to see, if there is an eye, I will talk to the shopkeeper, let the shopkeeper spare some money to sell to the girl, the girl is so beautiful, wearing our dress, maybe can attract us a lot of customers. ”

Congxi pretended to be happy and said: "This sister is really good at talking, so please ask my sister to take me upstairs to have a look." ”

Lu Lianhe smiled: "The girl comes with me." ”

Lu Lian immediately led the way in front and walked to the second floor.

The moment Lu Lian turned his head, he glanced at the corner of Lu Lian's mouth to a sneer, and then glanced at Wu Jiang with his residual light, Wu Jiang saw Congxi follow Lu Lian to the second floor, his face was snickering, Congxi didn't know, and followed Lu Lian up the stairs.

Lu Lian led the way in front, while continuing to introduce how the clothes on the second floor of their clothes were novel, coping with it casually from Xi's mouth, staring at Lu Lian, and at the same time reaching out to take out a medicine bottle from his sleeve, uncorked the bottle, and holding the medicine bottle tightly with his right hand, Lu Lian stepped on the second floor, and the moment he turned around, he suddenly raised his hand to sprinkle the medicine powder in the medicine bottle on Lu Lian's face, Lu Rong was stunned for a moment, and immediately fell to the ground in a coma, a white porcelain bottle in Lu Lian's right hand slipped aside, glanced at Lu Lian, and confirmed that Lu Lian was really unconscious, walked to Lu Lian's side, picked up the white medicine bottle on the ground, sent it to his nose and sniffed it, and secretly thought: "Fan Fan, if you are a fellow believer, but you are one step behind me." ”

Congxi looked up, there was a room on the second floor, the door was closed, fortunately it was not locked, walked to the door from Xi, opened the door, scanned the room by the door, the big bed, wardrobe, table, stool, no clothes at all, returned to the staircase from Xi, helped Lu Lian to sit up, wrapped his hands around Lu Lian's upper body, dragged Lu Lian into the room, put it on the floor, and then walked outside the house, closed the door, walked to the left side of the staircase again, squatted down and waited.

A moment later, Congxi heard footsteps on the stairs, the footsteps were slow and hesitant, and when he approached the second floor, Congxi heard Wu Jiang's soft call: "Ah pity? At the same time, the footsteps stopped.

Wu Jiang didn't hear a response, stopped on the stairs and hesitated for a moment, and then continued to go upstairs, Wu Jiang just stepped on the ground on the second floor with one foot, got up suddenly, raised his hand and sprinkled the remaining half bottle of medicinal powder on Wu Jiang, Wu Jiang was stunned for a moment, and wanted to faint, so he hurriedly reached out and grabbed Wu Jiang, lest he fall downstairs.

Wu Jiang, who had fainted, was placed at the top of the stairs, took out the veil from his arms, put it on his face, went downstairs to the store, and saw that there were two women choosing clothes, and said: "Two ladies, I'm sorry, our owner said that there is some urgency today, and the store is going to close first, so I can't help the two of you." ”

The two women didn't dwell on it and turned to leave. As soon as the two women left, Congran hurriedly walked into the store, wearing women's clothes, wearing hats, and carrying a burden on their shoulders. ”

Congxi nodded: "Close the store door first." ”

Congxi and Congran closed the door of the store, and the two walked to the second floor together, at the staircase, Congxi grabbed Wu Jiang's shoulders, Congran grabbed Wu Jiang's legs, and carried Wu Jiang into the room on the second floor, side by side with Lu Lian.

Congxi glanced up at the beams of the house, looked at Congran and said, "Open the burden and give me the rope." ”

He first took off the hood, squatted down and put the hat on the ground, then removed the burden from his shoulders, untied the knot, and unfolded the foreskin, which contained two bundles of thick rope and two long rolls. Cong Ran picked up a bundle of thick rope and handed it to Cong Xi, Cong Xi took it, spread the thick rope, grabbed a rope head and threw it to the beam, the rope head passed through the beam and fell to the ground, Cong Ran hurriedly walked over, grabbed the rope head, and walked to Lu Lian from Xi had already grabbed another rope head, Cong Ran also hurriedly approached, the two of them turned Lu Lian over together, let Lu Lian lie on the ground, folded Lu Lian's hands on the back, and tied Lu Lian's hands together with two rope heads.

Cong Ran picked up another thick rope, this time did not hand it to Congxi, learned to follow the Xi line, pierced the thick rope through the beam, Cong Ran grabbed the two rope heads and approached Wu Jiang, just wanted to tie Wu Jiang's hands in the same way, Cong Xi said: "Wait a minute, you take off his shirt first, there is pen and ink on the table over there, write a few big characters on him." ”

Congran: "What word?" ”

Congxi: "I am a thief. ”

Congran smiled: "Okay." ”

Congxi put down the rope, approached Wu Jiang, and began to strenuous strip off Wu Jiang's clothes.

Congxi: "Check again to see if there is a birthmark on Wu Jiang's waist." ”

He nodded calmly: "Okay." ”

Congxi approached the big bed, lifted the futon, there were thick ropes on both sides of the bed, and two thick sections were tied to the bed frame, similar to the thick rope brought from Congxi, the rope heads on both sides were scattered, and the rope was about ten inches long, just enough to bind a wrist.

Congxi picked up two pairs of long rolls in the baggage, there are two arm-long long threads at the top of the long rolls, Congxi approached the window with the long scroll, the window sash was closed, squatted down from Xi, at the bottom of the window, found two gaps on the left and right sides of the window frame, carefully passed the long thread through the gap, and tied the two long scrolls to the left and right sides of the window frame.

Cong Ran gasped and said, "Sister, Wu Jiang really has a red birthmark on his waist, the size of a palm." ”

Cong Xi glanced back, Cong Ran had already stripped Wu Jiang's clothes and only a pair of pants left, Cong Xi stood up and approached the table, took a brush, walked to Wu Jiang, Cong Ran hurriedly took the brush and said, "Sister, I'll come." ”

Congxi nodded, handed the brush to Congran, squatted beside Wu Jiang, started from Wu Jiang's neck, picked up the pen to write, the font was enlarged as much as possible, and in a moment, the four big characters of 'I am a thief' were spread on Wu Jiang's body.

Cong Rang Congran helped Wu Jiang to sit up, and used another thick rope to fold Wu Jiang's hands back and tie them up, and then the two of them carried Wu Jiang to the window and put him down, and then carried Lu Lian to Wu Jiang's side.

walked from Xi to the wardrobe, took out a handkerchief and a sock, blocked Lu Lian's mouth with a handkerchief, and blocked Wu Jiang's mouth with a sock. Congxi put back on the face towel he had just taken off to cover his face, then took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, looked at Congran and said: "The long one on the left is written on Wu Jiang, and the Changfu on the right is written on Lu Lian, and we will put Wu Jiang on the left in a while." ”

Congran nodded: "Okay, sister, do you want to wake them up?" ”

Congxi: "Only when they wake up do they know what it is like to be ridiculed and humiliated." Go and put your hat on, and don't talk again for a while. ”

Nodding his head calmly, he took the hood and put it back on his head.

Congxi leaned over and put the medicine bottle in his hand in front of Lu Lian and Wu Jiang's nose and shook it a few times, then put away the medicine bottle, opened the window, and put two long scrolls out of the window.

Congxi quickly turned around, and Congran lifted Wu Jiang, the two found that Wu Jiang's eyelids were shaking, Congxi and Congran hurriedly lifted Wu Jiang down the left window, Wu Jiang's hands were tied with thick ropes and hung under the window, on the street under the window, someone immediately saw Wu Jiang and shouted in surprise.

Congxi, Congran did not hesitate, picked up Lu Lian, who had just opened his eyes, and threw it out of the window on the right, and Lu Lian was also hung outside the window.

Congxi, Congran hurriedly turned around and left the window, Congxi picked up the baggage skin he brought, put it in his arms, pulled Congran quickly downstairs, and when he arrived downstairs, Congxi quietly opened a crack in the door, and saw that everyone was attracted by Wu Jiang and Lu Lian, standing under the window on the left, looking up, laughing and talking, and no one looked at the door, Congxi quickly opened half of the door crack, and Congran quickly ran out.

From Xi, Congran ran to the corner of the street in the distance, turned his head to take a look, more people gathered in front of the Yuan embroidery garment store, Wu Jiang and Lu Lian were still hanging out of the window, blocking the cloth in their mouths, staring at their legs and swaying and struggling, Wu Jiang's red body 'I am a thief' The four big characters are still clear and eye-catching, and no one stepped forward to rescue them, Wu Jiang and Lu Lian left and right, two long scrolls shook slightly, telling the two of them to be guilty, Wu Jiang wrote a long piece near Wu Jiang: 'This thief Wu Jiang is a habitual offender who rapes a good girl, and I hope that the neighbors on the street will avoid it. Lu Lian wrote in a long post nearby: "This female Lu Lian is an accomplice in helping Wu Jiang to commit evil, and I hope that the neighboring police will be vigilant." ’

Later, I heard that Wu Jiang and Lu Lian had been hanging outside the window for nearly two hours, and the Wu family heard about it and rushed to the Yuanxiu Garment Store to rescue them.
