Chapter 35: Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves

In December, it snowed heavily in the southern kingdom of Higra, and the leader of the caravan decided to rest for two days in his current city and wait for the snow to stop.

"Uncle Mu, I'm out of the city!"

Said hello to the kind Uncle Mu, Ouyang Yu, who was afraid of the cold, went out to forage for food, and every time she went to a city, she would go out to find local snacks to taste, which had become her habit, and after tidying up the hat on her head, Ouyang Yu left the hotel and walked in the snow looking for delicious food that might exist.

The city was not too large, with a population of 40,000 and was considered a medium-sized city, and like other cities on the mainland, it was the city lord's mansion in the middle, the residences of the nobles and the rich in the south, the commercial streets in the west, the commoners' settlements in the north, and the middle-class gathering places in the east.

Ouyang Yu held a bag of grilled sausages made of sheep intestines and stuffed meat on the commercial street while walking and eating, the crispness of the sheep intestines and the fresh meat with dense ingredients in them made her feast, and she bought no less than twenty in one go.

"Huh, Tenglong Chamber of Commerce Branch?" A three-storey store with a golden Chinese dragon painted on the sign attracted her attention, and when she walked into the store, she saw a sense of familiarity, with wooden inlaid transparent glass counters, wooden shelves, and a variety of goods on the shelves, plus a sales lady with a double ponytail and a cool dress with broken flowers, if the sales lady's hair and eyes turned black, this store looks like a state-owned department store in China in the seventies and eighties!

Pechoin cream, sewing machines, shell-shaped clam oil, enamelled cups and face plates, etc., all of these goods evoked Ouyang Yu's nostalgia for another world.

Secretly wiping his tears, Ouyang Yu began to observe the store, the store was full of customers, and the store was also divided into three grades, the largest and most crowded was the civilian area on the first floor, the second and third floors were slightly smaller, and the nobles who entered the store did not look at the goods on the first floor and went straight to the second floor, while some people entered the back of the store, it seems that they should be businessmen who came to negotiate business.

The sales ladies were busy with their feet not touching the ground, Ouyang Yu pretended to browse around the goods, the perspective words and the perspective of the earth were used by her, the situation on the second floor, the third floor and the back of the store was clear at a glance, the nobles spent a lot of money, did not buy the right ones, only sold the expensive ones, and the merchants who came to buy the goods behind also dropped a large amount of gold coins to pull away a cart of goods, and this store would receive a lot of income every minute.

After looking at it for a while, Ouyang Yu smiled, this is really an excellent target, and it is Andy's property, who will not steal from him? But you can't do it now, wait for the caravan to leave this city.

Three days later, the heavy snow finally stopped, the leader of the caravan was called up by everyone early in the morning, and the caravan set off after a hurried breakfast, because the caravan did not go far because of the heavy snow, and began to camp after dark, and after dinner, everyone was tired after a day in the snow, including Frieza, who had been harassing Ouyang Yu, and the lively camp soon fell silent.

Ouyang Yu was arranged to be on duty at night in the third shift, it was about twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, when it was time to be on duty, Ouyang Yu got up and handed over to the previous shift, and waited for a while to excuse the convenience, came to the dark place and released a clone, let the doppelganger return to the place on duty and stand, but the body flew up to the sky and flew towards the small city that left today.

After flying for about half an hour, Ouyang Yu came to the sky above the small city, there were no lights in the dark town, and Ouyang Yu, the branch of Andy's Tenglong Chamber of Commerce, searched for the memory of the day for a while before finding it.

Falling into a nearby alley, Ouyang Yu snapped a finger, a golden space-time gate appeared behind her, and a group of more than a dozen thieves with black cloaks came out of the door, these dozen thieves were recruited after the refugee camp was refreshed, and the leader of the thieves greeted her respectfully: "Master, Ali Baba obeys your orders." ”

"Come here. ”

Ali Baba obediently walked to Ouyang Yu's side, and Ouyang Yu whispered in his ear: "Do you see the store in front?"

Ali Baba nodded.

"Use your expertise to steal all the gold, silver, and copper coins and copper in it, don't keep any of them, and then set fire to this store for me, but be careful, if you can, you won't hurt anyone, do you understand?"

"I see, master. ”

"Good, go ahead!"

"Yes. Ali Baba waved his hand to his men, and the thieves disappeared into the darkness.

The front of this branch of the Tenglong Chamber of Commerce is a three-story business hall, and the back is a walled area, which contains several houses for staff accommodation and a vault in a secret place.

Ali Baba asked one of his men to lean against the wall, he stepped on his hands and jumped over the wall that was not very high, and after landing lightly without making a sound, he looked around, and there was no one, so he imitated the call of a common insect twice, and then his men climbed over the wall one after another.

After everyone had turned it over, Ali Baba made a few gestures that only they could understand, and his men nodded when they saw the gestures and disappeared into the courtyard.

A group of night guards walked under a tree with torches, and when the guards were far away, Ali Baba jumped down from the tree to the back of a four-story building, took out the grappling hook around his waist and threw it on the roof, then grabbed the rope under the grappling hook and climbed up the fourth floor into the best and largest room.

The person in charge of the branch in the room was sleeping soundly, completely unaware that a thief had entered his room.

Ali Baba found a secret compartment very oldly, took out the ledger and some information inside, and carefully removed a large bunch of keys tied to the waistband of his trousers, and then quietly exited the room.

"Gollum, Gollum. Two secret horns sounded.

Ali Baba came to the back of a pool where one of his men was waiting, and the man said, "Found the vault." ”

"Very good, I got the key too, you tell the second team to go and prepare the fire. ”

"Yes. The men looked left and right and quickly left.

Ali Baba also found a team of members and walked towards the location of the vault.

The vault is a one-story windowless building in the middle of the house, there are no trees or grass around, obviously deliberately cleaned, around a dozen guards with torches, burning bonfires, the vicinity is very bright, upstairs, downstairs, there are no dead corners guarding.

Ali Baba made a gesture, and the four men took a cylinder from their bosoms, loaded it with a thin needle, put it to their mouths, and aimed it at the four guards standing upstairs.

"Whew. With an almost inaudible sound, four anesthetic needles as thin as Niu Hao shot the necks of the four guards upstairs at about the same time, and the four guards shook and fell backwards on the thick snow, and the guards below didn't even notice it.

Ali Baba made a few more gestures, and his men immediately moved separately around the vault, and it wasn't long before the sound of insects was heard one after another.

Ali Baba put his hands to his mouth, "Grunt, grunt." ”

"Three, two, one. Ali Baba said silently, and several of the guards scattered around the vault touched their necks together at about the same time and fell to the ground together.

Seeing that all the guards had fallen to the ground, Ali Baba immediately ran to the vault, opened the door with the key, and put all the coins stored in it into the pockets prepared in advance with several of his men.

After loading the money and running out of the vault, Alibaba let out another insect call, and there was also a sound of insects in the distance, which was the news that the second team was ready to evacuate.

"Let's go. Ali Baba smiled and led his men back the same way, and not long after they left, a fire broke out in the three-story storefront, and the fire quickly spread to the second floor. On the third floor, the guards who saw the fire hurriedly rang the alarm bell, and after hearing the alarm bell, all the sleeping people got up and wanted to put out the fire, and then the patrolling guards found that all the guards of the vault had fainted and the vault was stolen, and there was another alarm bell, and the person in charge of the store was wearing thin pajamas, holding his hair with both hands and kneeling in the snow, looking at the fire of the store, his heart was full of despair.
