Chapter 30: Mistakes

With a bang, the door was kicked open.

Zhang Sihai rushed in with a mine guard, and the situation in front of them made them stunned, only to see Tan Sunshine wearing only a pair of shorts on his body, standing by the wooden basin to take a shower.

"Search!"

Zhang Sihai waved his hand with a gloomy face, and the mine guard began to rummage around, Tan Yang's heart was pounding, and he forced himself to calm down: "Senior Brother Zhang, what happened early this morning?"

Zhang Sihai didn't answer and asked, "From last night to now, have you seen Cong Li?"

"Nope. Tan Yang said, while paying attention to the mine guard with the residual vision of his eyes, he was secretly on guard, and the hunting knife was pressed under the wooden basin, in case those stolen goods were discovered, he could only fight with them and break the net!

At the same time, Tan Yang secretly wondered in his heart, strange, Cong Li had obviously been killed by himself, could it be that his body was gone?

"Senior brother, I didn't find anything, let's go!"

By this time, the mine guard had searched the whole house, not even under the bed. Tan Yang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately it was dawn at this time, the sun had not yet come out, and the light in the room was very dim and blurred, and the mine guard didn't even notice that the bed cover and mat had been wet!

Tan Yang was secretly glad that he had met a fool, and if he checked a little more closely, he would not only find that the bed was wet, but also that it was still stained with mud spots and blades of grass that he had not had time to deal with.

Just when Tan Yang thought he was going to get through the trick, Zhang Sihai suddenly said, "Wait!"

As he spoke, Zhang Sihai walked towards the wooden barrel in the corner, and Tan Yang's heart suddenly rose to his throat!

At the critical moment before Zhang Sihai entered the door, he quickly stripped naked, wrapped up all the stolen things, stuffed them all into the wooden bucket containing water, and scooped a scoop of water and poured it down, pretending to be taking a shower, so that he could hide his hair that had not yet dried.

I didn't expect Zhang Sihai to notice this wooden barrel!

Zhang Sihai's footsteps were very steady, and every step he took approaching the barrel seemed to be not stepping on the ground, but stepping on Tan Yang's heart......

Tan Yang's forehead began to break out in a cold sweat, he held his breath, his hand quietly drooped, and he held the handle of the hunting knife under the wooden basin!

As long as Zhang Sihai's hand touches the barrel, it will be the time when the fish dies and the net is broken!

Zhang Sihai walked to the barrel and couldn't help but reach out to cover his nose, the barrel was stuffed with dirty clothes, and there was a pair of stinky socks on it, one of which was even on the handle of the barrel, dripping with black dirty water.

Zhang Sihai hesitated for a moment, finally turned around and walked back, and said, "Let's go!" ”

Tan Yang breathed a sigh of relief, feeling paralyzed and weak, wiped a handful of water and cold sweat from his forehead, and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, don't worry! What happened? Can you reveal a thing or two." ”

Zhang Sihai said: "Senior Brother Cong...... Cong Li absconded in fear of crime, don't ask more, if you see him, report it to me immediately. After saying that, he walked out with the mine guard without looking back, and after a while, there was the sound of the king of the sledgehammer house next door kicking the door.

Tan Yang didn't care about the water stains all over his body, and sat on the bed, what was going on? Cong Li was obviously too dead to die anymore, how could he abscond in fear of crime?

After thinking for a while, Tan Yang seemed to understand a little, the person who saved himself must have taken Cong Li's body with him, Wang Zhengyan and Zhang Sihai woke up and didn't see Cong Li, so they thought that Cong Li had secretly swallowed the small wooden box and the Luoyun Order, and absconded in fear of crime. If that's the case, then it's really crooked.

Half an hour later, Zhang Sihai led the mine guards away, and it seemed that nothing had been found.

Tan Yang changed into clean clothes and fished out the contents of the wooden barrel, except for Cong Li's booklet, which was soaked, everything else was almost unharmed, even the few talismans that seemed to be paper looked intact.

With the lesson of the last small wooden box, it seems that these things must be hidden in a safe place.

Tan Yang carried the things in his arms, packed up, and went to visit Shen Mazi next door first. Shen Mazi's popularity is good, many people have come to visit the house early in the morning, Wang Dazhui, Zuo Gongyuan, Zhuo Jin, etc. have come, Tang Ge and Yao Fatzi have also come.

Seeing Tan Yang come in, Tang Ge pulled Yao Fatzi and walked out without saying a word, it seemed that he was still angry with Tan Yang in his heart.

Shen Mazi is young after all, his body recovers quickly, and his mental head is much stronger than yesterday, and he was slightly startled when he saw Tan Yang, and his eyes were full of inquiry.

Tan Yang shook his head slightly, secretly squeezed a look, and said with a smile: "Mazi, it's a good recovery, have you experienced my magic rejuvenation technique?"

A hint of disappointment flashed in Shen Mazi's eyes, and he also smiled: "Thank you, please go back, it's time for Dr. Tan Yong to change my dressing." ”

Wang Dazhui still wanted to stay on and not leave, but was taken away by Tan Yang in the name of breakfast. After everyone left, Tan Yang gave a general account of last night's situation.

"You killed Cong Li?" Shen Mazi said excitedly, "Good killing! It not only avenged those dead brothers, but also relieved the hatred in Lao Tzu's heart." Quineer, you are truly amazing, you can be described as a daring artist. However, since Cong Li is dead, didn't they see the body and came here to search it?"

Tan Yang frowned while changing the dressing for Shen Mazi: "This is also where I am puzzled, judging by the current situation, it can only mean that the mysterious person who suddenly appeared not only saved me, but also took away the body." ”

Shen Mazi groaned: "It must be like this, but it's okay like this, Wang Zhengyan lost the Qiankun bag, just let Cong Li carry the black cauldron, come to him and die without proof, aren't you safe? Don't think about it, quickly take out the Qiankun bag, and see if there are your things and the forbidden god jade urn in it." ”

Tan Yang got up and looked at the door, and when he saw that there was no one around, he closed the door tightly and took out the Qiankun bag from his arms.

On the hillside opposite the mountain stream, Wang Zhengyan's residence.

Wang Zhengyan was in the house like an ant on a hot pot, so anxious that he was spinning around.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and Zhang Sihai ran in panting, and said, "Uncle Shi, Cong Li's house has been searched, and no valuable clues have been found, and the new disciple's side is normal, and no one has seen Cong Li." ”

Before Zhang Sihai could catch his breath, Liu Zhengyi, the deputy mine manager, also ran in and said, "Mine chief, every inch of ground in the gourd valley has been searched, and there is no trace of Cong Li. ”

"Bastard!" Wang Zhengyan sat on the chair, "Senior Brother Liu, leave a few mine guards on guard, and chase the rest for me! You also go, take the flying boat that transports ore, no matter what the cost, you must arrest Cong Li, this bastard, for me!"

Liu Zhengyi said yes and ran out quickly.

"Uncle Shi, there is something strange about this matter, is it really Cong Li's hand?"

"Isn't he who else?" Wang Zhengyan said with annoyance, "If you think about what he said last night, this kid dissuaded me from taking the small wooden box to find the sect master last night, because I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get the contents by myself, so I just swallowed it privately." ”

However, Deputy Mine Manager Liu said that he seemed to hear Cong Li's cry for help last night. If Cong Li did it, why didn't he sneak away quietly, but instead called for help? Wouldn't it be a surprise to the snake? ”

"That's where this kid is treacherous. Do you think, if someone else did it, why did we both fall unconscious, but he was the only one who had the ability to call for help? The purpose of his call for help was, first, to divert the tiger away from the mountain and attract the patrol guards to him, so that he could take advantage of the chaos to escape; second, while everyone was busy treating us, no one would chase him, so he acted calmly; and third, since someone proved that it was he who made a cry for help, others naturally did not suspect him for a while. Look, aren't you fooled now?"

"What Uncle Shi said is reasonable, but in addition to the small wooden box, Luoyun Ling and Uncle Shi's Qiankun bag, the quilt on Uncle Shi's bed was also lost. Cong Li just stole those things, why did he steal a worthless quilt? This is too strange, isn't it?"

"Who said it wasn't worth it? That quilt was the one that Cong Li had honored me before, and it cost a lot of spar, and it was not filled with ordinary cotton, but a calming spirit chrysanthemum stamen, and no one else knew about this secret except me and him, who else could it be that he didn't do it? How could an outsider steal a quilt?"

"Uncle Shi's eyes are like torches, I understand, now it seems that this kid did it. If it's an outsider, why don't you start sooner or later, just when we just got the small wooden box? Cong Li is really ungrateful, Uncle Shi has always treated him well, and he can really do it. ”

"Cong Li is cold and ruthless by nature, he stole the small wooden box and the Luoyun Order, and he was not greedy enough to steal my Qiankun bag, if you don't kill this thief, I swear not to be a man. The more Wang Zhengyan spoke, the more angry he became.

Zhang Sihai was puzzled: "Uncle Shi, you have a blue bamboo flying boat in your Qiankun bag, and the flying speed is much faster than the flying boat that transports ore, Deputy Mine Chief Liu may not be able to catch up with him, and most of the rest of the fellow disciples do not have flying magic weapons, let alone them." Think about it, should we ask the Sect Master for help?"

"How can you say this kind of thing?" Wang Zhengyan's face was full of hideousness, "Let's wait for the results of Deputy Mine Chief Liu first, in case it doesn't work, I will go to the sect master again, and if I fight to be punished by the sect master, I will also break Cong Li's corpse into ten thousand pieces and destroy him!"

Wang Zhengyan's grim tone made Zhang Sihai shudder involuntarily.

Shen Mazi in the house.

Tan Yang and Shen Mazi looked at each other, and the two of them tried their best, but they couldn't open the seemingly ordinary pale yellow bag.

"It seems that only by learning how to use the Qiankun bag can we find out. Tan Yang reluctantly put away the small bag, this kind of immortal magic weapon is really extraordinary, so he thought of his small wooden box, is it also a magic weapon? If so, that is to say, his parents should be immortal cultivators, how is this possible? It's ridiculous.

Shen Mazi also said helplessly: "I don't know if your things and the forbidden god jade urn are in it, it seems that there is no way to take this thing for a while." Can you think of a way to get it out of Zhang Sihai's mouth?"

While the two were discussing, there was a bang, and the door was kicked open!
