Huang Zhutou smiled and said, "I can't hide it from the two young heroes, I chased the thief here, and I just arrived in Yongxing County not long ago." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

At this time, General Zuo smiled and said, "Speaking of which, when Huang Zhutou just arrived in Yongxing County, it was almost when I met the two of you. ”

It dawned on me that General Zuo's original intention in bringing us back to his mansion was not to ask us for clues about the Golden Flower Thief, but to suspect that we were the Golden Flower Thief! No wonder General Zuo was so enthusiastic in inviting us to his mansion, and this Yellow Catcher was always aggressive, and General Zuo originally wanted this Yellow Catcher to quickly identify us. My head was like being poured with a basin of cold water, and I once again secretly scolded myself for being stupid, when I took out the golden dart, I was afraid that General Zuo had already suspected me, but I didn't think about this aspect at all, just to provide some clues for this guard, who would have wanted to be put on a position by this General Zuo.

Lin Nan said angrily: "Hmph, so we were treated as the golden flower thief by you?"

Sure enough, General Zuo smiled again: "If you don't agree to go back to the house with me, I'm afraid it will be so, but now it seems that we have indeed misunderstood you." ”

I just felt like a fool, and I didn't even notice it.

Huang Zhutou said again: "Yes, when General Zuo took out this golden dart just now, I really thought that the thief had thrown himself into the net, but when I saw you, I found that the height difference between you and the thief was too far, in order to find out the truth and truth, so I ......."

He said that he was chasing the Golden Flower Thief, and when he first arrived here, Yongxing County was sealed, I thought about it and said, "General Zuo, what do you mean?"

General Zuo said: "That thief is in Yongxing County now!"

"Sure enough!"

Although there were some vague speculations in my heart, I was still taken aback when General Zuo said it himself.

Lin Nan said: "Are you sure?"

Huang Zhutou said: "Sure!"

General Zuo said again: "Zuo likes to make friends on the rivers and lakes the most in his life, and he also has some relationship with the two, so he will rashly ask the two when he is under the city gate just now, who knows, hahaha...... Please don't be surprised. ”

He actually laughed out loud at the end, but the words behind it were self-evident, who knew that by such a coincidence, Lin Nan and I happened to recognize the golden dart, and I still had a golden dart in my arms. I was already very aggrieved in my heart, but when I thought about it, it was true, if I were General Zuo, and someone suddenly took out a golden dart in front of me, I am afraid that I would also bring this person back for interrogation.

I couldn't help but be silent, but Lin Nan was a little annoyed, and said, "Since the two of you have figured out the facts, we won't stay here and say goodbye!"

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, hugged my fists towards General Zuo and Huang Zhutou, and said, "Farewell." ”

"Two young heroes and slow down! ”

At this time, General Zuo shouted, Lin Nan and I both stopped to look at him, General Zuo walked in front of us, and said with a smile: "Shadow Chasing Shaoxia, Lin Shaoxia, I saw the two of you protecting the old man when I was in the horse market just now, although the person who is messing around is the third brother below, but the chivalrous heart of the two is undoubted." ”

This General Zuo put his identity very low, I felt strange in my heart, Lin Nan said: "General Zuo has something to say, just say it directly, you don't have to hide it like Fang Cai." ”

General Zuo laughed and said, "The two young heroes are really fast-talking, so I won't talk nonsense." I beg the two young heroes to stay and help Huang Zhutou catch the thief, I wonder if the two of them are willing?"

I looked out the door, and the willow trees were swaying in the wind, and if General Zuo really only called us over for interrogation, he would not have brought us to such a pure place.

Lin Nan said: "You treat us as thieves, why should we help you?"

I pulled Lin Nan and whispered, "Brother Lin, don't be rude." ”

General Zuo's decision is also reasonable, no wonder he, now that it is clear, we don't need to speak coldly to General Zuo and the others, not to mention that General Zuo has apologized repeatedly.

Huang Zhutou said with a smile: "I followed the thief below, and I know that the thief is very powerful, which is extraordinary. When the shadow chasing young man was in Hengzhou, he could catch up with the thief, presumably it was a light achievement, if the shadow chasing young man was willing to help, we would definitely catch the thief. ”

The first time I chased the Golden Flower Thief, my light skills were really not good, but now that I have cultivated internal skills, I may be able to call it "light skills" in the eyes of Huang Zhutou.

General Zuo didn't think about it, and said, "Yes, don't you want to catch this thief and eliminate harm for the people?"

Lin Nan and I glanced at each other, and both saw each other's hesitation. For the Golden Flower Thief, I am curious, and Lin Nan is probably making a fool of himself.

I said: "There must be a lot of capable people stationed in Yongxing County, and the two of us are so virtuous and capable, General Zuo has been promoted." ”

The Xiang army is an irregular army, not as good as the forbidden army of the imperial court, and most of the people in the army are recruited miscellaneous soldiers, although the army is chaotic, it is still a military horse. Fuzhou Minhou County is stationed in the Xiang Army, the guard will be a person with a stunt, a spear to play superb, even the master has to be afraid of three points, I have seen the Wanfu dance gun, know his power, if it is said that Yongxing County Xiang Army is incompetent, I am a little unbelievable, why should he ask us to help?

General Zuo sighed and said: "I don't know anything about the shadow chasing young man, although I am stationed in Yongxing County, most of them are old and weak soldiers of the imperial court, and there are some soldiers who are assigned here, but they are actually conscripts. In recent years, Taizong has built a great water conservancy, and the conscripts I led have also participated in the construction of river embankments. It's far from what the shadow-chasing young man thinks. ”

I was shocked, when General Zuo spoke, his face suddenly did not shine as brightly as he did just now, but there was a little bit of loss. I didn't expect the standing army of Yongxing County to be like this, and the defenders of Minhou County are not doing miscellaneous work like Yongxing County.

General Zuo said: "I am the general of Yongxing County, and I want to strengthen the army and defend the people, but I am really helpless, so I dare to invite the two to the cold house for a while, hoping that the two young heroes can help catch the thief." ”

Remembering that when he first met General Zuo, he was sweating all over his body, and I am afraid that he was working hard to train the army. I was also a little hesitant when he said it, and I said: "Why are you looking for us, aren't there many heroes in Yongxing County?"

General Zuo smiled: "This is thanks to my two subordinates, Chang Wen and Chang Wu." Just now, the two of them mentioned you to me, saying that the shadow chasing young man has superb swordsmanship, if he can keep the young man, the possibility of catching the Golden Flower Thief will be greater. ”

I remembered the two bright-eyed men I met in the horse market, and I wondered, "Changwen Changwu?"

General Zuo said: "Yes, Chang Wen and Chang Wu have followed me for many years, and they have never looked away from people, and I also believe in them." Besides, the young man who chased the shadow happened to know something about this golden flower thief, so he would have this request. ”

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, I didn't fight with Chang Wen and Chang Wu, but they said that I had superb swordsmanship, which is probably an excuse that General Zuo was looking for.

At this time, a soldier hurriedly ran in from outside the door, holding a letter in his hand and said: "General Zuo, someone just sent a letter, saying that it was to be handed over to Huang Zhutou. ”

Huang Zhutou was stunned, took the letter from the soldier's hand, opened it and looked at it, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted, "Golden Dart!"

We were all taken aback, only to see Huang Zhutou pinch out a golden dart from the envelope, not the golden dart of the Golden Flower Thief or what?

There is also a strip of cloth tied to the golden dart, which reads: Tonight, the county magistrate.

I gasped, this golden flower thief was really in Yongxing County, and what I didn't expect was that he was so rampant!

Before stealing, do you want to make an announcement?

Huang Zhutou grabbed the soldier and said hurriedly: "Where is the person who delivered the letter?"

The soldier was startled and said, "I've already left." ”

General Zuo said: "Can you see what he looks like?"

The soldier said, "This ......"

General Zuo shouted: "Bastard! Don't you take someone to chase after you!"

The soldier hurriedly clenched his fists and said "yes", and then hurried away.

If you chase him now, I'm afraid it's too late, there are many people in Yongxing County now, and that person is afraid to drill into the pile, and looking for him is equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack. This soldier was too negligent and didn't even see the appearance of the person who came, so it was no wonder that General Zuo was so angry. If General Zuo's subordinates are all such people, it is no wonder that General Zuo will ask us for help.

Huang Zhutou and General Zuo probably thought of this and didn't go out to chase it.

General Zuo slapped the table and said in a deep voice: "What a boldness, he even blatantly came to the door!"

I thought for a moment and said, "I didn't expect that the Golden Flower Thief would be so rampant, General Zuo, my two brothers are willing to help Huang Zhutou to catch the Golden Flower Thief." ”

We were going to Yongzhou to chase the Golden Flower Thief, but now the Golden Flower Thief is in Yongxing County, so we don't have to go to Yongzhou, so it is better to follow General Zuo and hunt down the Golden Flower Thief in Yongxing County.

Lin Nan said excitedly: "Yes, yes, this thief is too rampant, we can't stand it, who can bear it!"

General Zuo smiled: "This is the best, with the help of two young heroes, the Golden Flower Thief will definitely not be able to escape." Come and prepare a room for the two young heroes. ”

I said, "General, a friend of mine is still waiting for me outside the city, and I ask the general to send someone to fetch him too." ”

General Zuo smiled: "This is easy to do, I will order someone to bring your friend." ”

At this time, a servant came in from outside the door, clasped his fist at General Zuo and said, "What does the general command?"

General Zuo said: "You go and prepare three bedrooms for the shadow chasing young heroes." ”

The man: "Yes." Then he turned to look at us and said, "Come with me, two." ”

After bidding farewell to General Zuo, Huang Zhutou and I walked to the wing room with the servants, and Lin Nan followed General Zuo to pick up the Baili disciples.

In a short time the servant led us into a courtyard of four rooms, two of them, one on each side, and a flower and a low tree in the middle of the courtyard. Huang Zhutou also lived in this courtyard, and after the servant left, he did not return to his room, but followed me to my room.

The furnishings in the room were very simple, but very clean, the two of us sat at the table, Huang Zhutou poured two cups of tea, handed me one, and said, "Brother Shadow Chaser, since you have promised to help hunt down the Golden Flower Thief, I won't say those useless words, I don't know what you think of that letter?"

Huang Zhutou is about to be in his early thirties, and he should call me an old brother, for what he asked, in fact, I have been thinking about this question on the way to the wing.

I said, "The Golden Flower Thief did this to tell us that he was going to steal something from the county magistrate tonight, and I don't think it's that simple. ”

Huang Zhutou said: "Brother Shadow Chasing, why do you say this?"

I said: "The county has been sealed down, and the north and south gates are guarded by guards, and if he does this, either he really has the ability to steal things from the county governor." Or, he's trying to divert our attention and do it on purpose. ”

Huang Zhutou slapped the table and said, "You think so too?"

I nodded and said, "I'm just guessing, he is too flamboyant in doing this, I'm afraid there is fraud." ”

Huang Zhutou pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "I'm the same as you think, I'm afraid there must be something else in this." If I thought like this alone, I might still be a little hesitant, but now it seems that this matter must be reported to the magistrate. In this way, Brother Shadow Chaser, you can rest here for a while, and I will come when I go. ”

After he had finished speaking, he did not linger any longer, and hurried away.

Looking at his departing back, I couldn't help but feel a little strange. What precious things have been stolen from the Chenzhou Zhizhou, and it has gone so far as to make a fuss about to seal the county seat, and the golden flower thief, isn't it in Yongzhou? How could he suddenly appear in Chenzhou? If Hengzhou is counted, the golden flower thief has already committed crimes in three states in a row, and it seems that he has never stopped. Could it be that this person is really insatiable and obsessed with money?

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, drank the tea in my hand, pushed open the window, and saw the sunset in the west, dyeing half of the sky red.
