Chapter 18: The House Thief

After two more slight clicks of the deadbolt, a crack opened the door from the outside, and a thin man squeezed in through the crack in the door, and his figure was still somewhat familiar. Xue Yun found the man walking towards the couch and quickly held his breath. However, when the man reached the table, he stopped and reached for the burden that was placed on the table. The man opened the bag by the dim light, rummaged through the contents of it, and after finding a piece of cloth, he took a cursory look at it, folded it and put it in his pocket, and turned back and walked towards the door.

Xue Yun stared at the man, and saw that he didn't touch the silver money in his baggage at all, but only took her piece of cloth, the title deed of Cangshan Tea Garden, and his heart suddenly became clear. It's pretty fast!

"Stop! There's a thief! Catch the thief!"

Xue Yun jumped out of the cabinet a few times and shouted loudly.

The man trembled with fright by Xue Yun's sudden roar, subconsciously glanced back at her, and then ran towards the door.

"Stop! Give it back to me. ”

Xue Yun didn't care that he was wearing obscene clothes and pants, so he chased the man out barefoot.

When the man saw Xue Yun chasing him out, he immediately ran towards the stairs in a panic, because he was in a hurry, he didn't notice a white horse lying at the top of the ladder. The white horse seemed to be deliberately leaning sideways, blocking the entrance to the ladder. When the man ran closer, he found that the white horse lying on the ground had long been unable to stop his feet, and he fell headlong into the ground, and fell to the ground without moving.

Xue Yun chased after him, and when he saw the white horse, he couldn't help but be taken aback. When did the stinky horse come back? What was the matter with the man it gnawed at with its mouth? Xue Yun ran down the stairs in three steps and two steps, pushed the white horse away, and leaned over to check on the man.

Sun Jiang had already come out with his clothes on, holding a candle in his hand. On the second floor, several travelers who had previously lived in the room also went out one after another to stand upstairs and look, looked, couldn't resist sleeping, and returned to the room to continue to rest.

"Little lady, did you say that this person stole your things?" Sun Jiang put the candle flame aside, helped Xue Yun turn over the person who had fallen unconscious, and asked.

"Exactly. He ......, "Xue Yun was stunned when he saw the man's face clearly. "How could it be him?"

"Who?" asked Sun Jiang.

"I, a servant of my family. Xue Yun glanced at the person lying on the ground, smiled awkwardly at Sun Jiang, and responded. Who is this person not Xue Hualin's companion Tong Xiao Jiu? Could it be that he has been instructed by the eldest lady? If it is the eldest lady's instructions, why don't you send an adult here? Why do you want to send Xiao Jiu, who is only 12 years old? Could it be ......

"Little lady. The crescent moon came out and stood beside Xue Yun at some point, and when she saw that the person was Xiao Jiu, she was also surprised. "What's going on?"

Xue Yun took out the cloth from Xiao Jiu and said, "He'll take this." ”

The crescent moon's face turned pale instantly, grabbed Xue Yun, and said in a panic: "Little lady, could it be the meaning of the eldest lady." ”

Xue Yun looked back at the crescent moon and patted her on the shoulder to show that she wasn't too nervous. "I'm afraid that some people are good at making claims! If it is a big lady, can she use such a stupid method?"

The crescent moon glanced at Xiao Jiu, who was lying motionless on the ground, then raised her eyes to look at Xue Yun, and asked, "Little lady, then what should we do with him?"

Xue Yun groaned slightly, and said to Sun Jiang: "Da Lang, please do something." ”

Sun Jiang smiled and said, "But according to the orders of Little Lady Xue." ”

Xue Yun said: "You tied up this kid and threw it to the firewood room, if someone came to look for it, you would return it, and say that it was a thief caught by your traveler here at night, saying that he stole other people's money." But if no one comes to look for him, let him go on the third day. ”
