【Volume 2 Land of Ruins】 Chapter 147: Stalking the Thief

Room Nine.

The décor is so ornate that it can't be compared to the lobby downstairs, it's quiet and completely isolated from the hustle and bustle below.

Song Wen'er whispered a few words beside the shopkeeper, and not long after the shopkeeper retreated, he soon led someone to hold the plate.

After placing the dishes, the shopkeeper and others retreated.

Chen Tuo looked at the table full of delicacies in front of him, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and finally looked at Song Wen'er, and asked weakly: "There are so many dishes, are you sure that only the two of us will eat?"

"Naturally, it's just the two of us, didn't I tell you, please eat this first delicacy in Nandu, naturally you have to be full, otherwise, how to express my gratitude to you, well, eat quickly, it's not enough for the little second brother to serve!"

Chen Tuo stumbled and almost didn't fall off the chair.

My sister, don't be so wasteful in gratitude, how to eat a big table.

However, the hairy crabs here are really a must, the crab meat is tender and fat, and the crab paste melts in the mouth, which is indeed a delicacy in the world.

Chen Tuo couldn't stop eating a bite, no wonder Her Royal Highness the princess who was dressed in brocade clothes and jade food came to taste it in person,

A large table of dishes, not only steamed crab, but also stir-fried crab, as well as other dishes, are the top dishes of this Dazhang restaurant.

As a princess, Song Wen'er has eaten all kinds of delicacies in the palace, but not long ago, she heard that the hairy crabs in Dazhanglou are a must, so she came out to taste them fresh, and it is also to relieve the pressure for many months.

"Yes, the hairy crabs here can become a must-have in Nandu's cuisine, and they are indeed worthy of their reputation, and I have to let my father taste them when I go back!" Song Wen'er also gave a satisfactory evaluation after eating it.

However, she only tasted it.

The rest can only be handed over to Chen Tuo to deal with.

In the end, Chen Tuo still adhered to the principle of not wasting and killed the rest of the dishes.

After lunch, at Song Wen'er's suggestion, the two planned to wander around for a while and then go back.

It's hard to come out of it, how could she just go back.

The streets are bustling, with peddlers and pawns shouting and shouting, and crowds of people coming and going.

The two were walking, and Song Wen'er was suddenly accidentally bumped by someone behind, and she subconsciously touched her waist.

The money bag hanging there is gone.

"Catch the thief!" Song Wen'er shouted, pointing to a figure in front of her who was running fast.

She quickly caught up, but before she could run a few steps, she found that Chen Tuo hadn't followed at all, and when she looked back, Chen Tuo was still walking slowly, without the slightest intention of chasing the thief.

"Xiao Tuo, help me catch the thief, if you don't chase him anymore, you'll run away. ”

Seeing that the thief was about to disappear into the crowd, this made Song Wen'er anxious.

The money was not important, but there was a small puppet inside, which was a relic left to her by her mother.

That must not be lost.

"Don't worry, you can't run, he's already hit my thyme. Chen Tuo followed unhurriedly.

Thyme, this is the unique tracking medicine he concocted.

In the past, when he was in the wild forest, in order to facilitate the tracking of brute beasts, he specially developed this thyme, which he had not used for many years.

Just now, when Song Wen'er shouted "catch the thief", he had already given a thousand miles of incense to that person. With his ability, he could catch the thief directly on the spot, but Chen Tuo planned to put a long line to catch a big fish.

"If something is lost, I will never talk to you again. Song Wen'er said angrily, she was still worried.

At this time, the thief had disappeared, and even if she wanted to chase it now, she couldn't find anyone.

"Don't you still believe in my ability, let's go!" Chen Tuo took the lead and strode forward.

"In case he erases your thyme, won't you find it?" Song Wen'er said.

Chen Tuo smiled, knowing that she didn't understand the magic of her thyme: "Although it is thyme, it is colorless and tasteless, with the thief's ability, he can't find it, and he doesn't have that ability." The reason why I chose this name is because the person who has fallen for the thousand miles of incense, as long as he is within a thousand miles, I can easily find him. ”

"It's so powerful, you can track it within a thousand miles!" Song Wen'er's eyes were wide open, and she looked very smart: "However, is yours a dog's nose? You can smell it from so far away." ”

"You can do it without a dog's nose, come, eat this!" Chen Tuo poured out a ball from a jade bottle.

Song Wen'er hesitated for a moment, but finally took it.

"Hey, there's really a fragrance...... The smell is wafting from there, let's chase after ......" she pointed in a direction ahead, as if she had discovered a new continent.

As she spoke, she had taken the lead and chased in that direction, and she couldn't wait to catch the hateful thief.

Following the scent, the two walked several avenues before finding their target walking into a dilapidated street in front of them.

Far away from the prosperous area, it is extremely remote, and it is a very famous barren place in the southern capital - "slum".

There are a lot of people coming and going.

Seeing two strangers appear here, many people cast strange glances at them.

As a famous slum in the southern capital, this place is synonymous with dirty and messy, and there will be no strangers here on weekdays, especially some people who claim to be noble.

Chen Tuo and Song Wen'er have gorgeous costumes and extraordinary spirits, and they are not ordinary children at first glance.

At this time.

An alley.

A tall and thin man was holding a money bag in his hand, he looked very proud, humming a little song while walking, and greeting people passing by from time to time, he didn't expect to be so lucky today, and he made a windfall as soon as he went out.

Just now, he took a look at the contents inside, and they were all gold leaves and golden beans...... There are also a few night pearls.

Soon, he was in a dilapidated mansion.

The house is very large, and there are quite a few people walking around in it, obviously, this is not an ordinary place.

"Monkey, didn't you just go out, and you're back so soon!, and you're not going to be lazy again!" someone teased.

"How can it, it's a lot of luck today, I ran into a rich man when I went out, no, I'm back!" the tall thin man took the extremely heavy money bag in his hand and signaled to everyone.

"Yes, monkey, look at the embroidery on the bag, this is definitely from the hand of a famous artist. Someone was surprised.

"Of course, come on, keep your eyes open, don't go away!" The tall and thin man looked proud, and when he was about to open the money bag, there was a sudden coughing sound from the back of the crowd.

It was an old man, with very old clothes and patches, but very clean, and he came out of the house with a pale face, as if he was seriously ill, on crutches.

"Grandpa, why did you come out, don't you have a good rest!" the tall and thin man hurriedly ran forward to support him.

"It's good to go out for a walk, or you won't have this opportunity in the future!" the old man smiled slightly.

"Grandpa, why do you say that, you will definitely get better. The tall and thin man said.

"That's it, Grandpa, you can definitely live a long life, no, a long life...... "There is also a humane.

"Okay, it's good to live a long life, hehe...... By the way, monkey, I heard you shouting just now, but what is the difference today?" said the old man.

"Grandpa is really Grandpa, it's really a prophet ......," the tall thin man said, took out the money bag, and when he opened it, it was shining with gold.

It's just blind.

"Are these all golden leaves, golden beans, and night pearls?" there was an uproar all around, and they were all seduced by the soothing brilliance.

The old man's expression was calm, and his gaze swept from there without much fluctuation, but soon, his gaze was attracted by a palm-high puppet inside.

"It's ......"

He held the puppet in his hand, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes.
