Under Tao Ziyun's construction, Tao Ziyun, Liang Zhangju, and Zhu Shiyan changed into ordinary people's clothes, and together with Xie Fujun, they walked out of Tao Mansion together.

They walked along the street to the distance, the shops on both sides of the street, the lights were brilliant, and the night market in the capital was very lively. From time to time, groups of officers and soldiers pass by on the streets, which reminds people of those disappearance cases that the government has strictly investigated but has no results.

Xie Fujun was secretly anxious in his heart, until he walked a few long streets, he couldn't help but urge Tao Ziyun and said: "Master Tao, it looks like shopping, you have to do your best to help me find someone, otherwise, the shopkeeper Sang is gone, how can I explain to Master Sang!"

Tao Ziyun replied unhurriedly: "Because of this matter, I have no clue, so I have to go shopping like this and slowly look for clues." ”

Tao Ziyun's reaction made Xie Fujun speechless, so he had to follow and bow his head and remain silent.

Liang Zhangju came forward to comfort Xie Fujun and said: "I said Brother Jie, this matter is not in a hurry, think about it, some time ago, there were so many missing people, no matter how much the government investigated, it couldn't find any results!"

Liang Zhangju's words of relief still made Xie Fujun bow his head and remain silent.

Zhu Shiyan reminded Xie Fujun and said: "Brother Jie, for today's plan, you can tell me what you think, so as to clear up a little clue." For example, if you have a grudge against someone in the capital, this is the clue, because it is possible that the enemy captured the Sang shopkeeper. ”

Tao Ziyun echoed and asked Xie Fujun: "It makes sense, who did you have a grudge with in the capital?"

Xie Fujun pondered and replied: "As we all know, as the world's well-known 'Nanyuan and Beizhe', our Sang Master Nanyuan-Sang Benyuan, has always had a grudge against Beizhe-Ma Jianzhe. Ma Jianzhe, like our old man Sang, is close to old age, but I heard the guy who sat on the stage with the shopkeeper of Sang say that the one who captured the shopkeeper Sang was a young offspring! ”

Liang Zhangju came up with an idea and said, "So to speak. Go to your Sang Silk's shop, take that guy with you, and if we meet that young offspring who committed the crime, we'll catch him!"

Zhu Shiyan expressed his doubts suspiciously: "Why didn't that young descendant arrest that guy with him? Keep him, and that guy will be accused of his crimes!"

Tao Ziyun affirmed his judgment and said: "In my opinion, it is because that young posterity is too confident, because he has come and gone without a trace, and the people who see him are helpless against him!"

Xie Fujun said to Tao Ziyun in disappointment: "So, Lord Tao is helpless?"

Tao Ziyun smiled lightly: "It's not me." It was the young offspring who committed the crime, and he thought that the guy saw him doing bad things, and he couldn't track him down. ”

Xie Fujun immediately answered: "In this case, you follow me to the Sang silk shop, and take that guy out to find the Sang shopkeeper." ”

"Well, it's better for someone to identify him than for someone who doesn't know him to come out and look for him. Let's go, go take that guy. Tao Ziyun said, and let Xie Fujun lead the way. Walk towards the Mulberry satin shop.

"Help me catch him!" The man in front of me snatched my bag of gold and silver!" In an inn in front of me, two men suddenly ran out, and the man behind shouted. Say that the person in front of you is a thief!

The direction in which the thieves fled was in front of Tao Ziyun and them, far away. Tao Ziyun was about to go to catch the thief, when a man ran out of the inn. After a few leaps, he caught the thief and snatched a small cloth bag from his hand!

"That man is very skilled!" saw the man's skill in catching thieves. Tao Ziyun couldn't help but admire.

"This bag of gold and silver will be returned to you!" the man who caught the thief handed over the small cloth bag he had captured to the owner.

"This is the savings of my small business for many years! Thank you Gongzi for helping me regain the gold and silver, I am really grateful, I will give you a piece of silver as a reward for you!" The owner was a middle-aged man, and when he opened the small cloth bag, he wanted to take the silver to the young man who helped him recover the gold and silver as a reward.

Yes, the man who caught the thief was a young man, and he was so skilled, Tao Ziyun couldn't help but pay special attention to him, and he said lightly to Xie Fujun: "Isn't this a young man? ”

Xie Fujun's mood was even more anxious: "Then let's hurry to the Sang silk shop and call that guy to come over and recognize people!"

Tao Ziyun softly but resolutely dissuaded Xie Fujun and said: "It's definitely not okay to leave now, as soon as we leave like this, this young man will go I don't know where to go, wait for that guy to come over, who do you ask him to identify?"

As soon as Xie Fujun heard that it made sense, he didn't say anything, just waited expectantly for the progress of this matter in front of him.

I saw that the young man used his hand to block back a piece of silver handed to him by the owner: "There is no need to repay it, you go back to the lobby and continue to drink, for the guests of this store, I have the obligation to help you." ”

"Thank you, owner!" said the owner, bowing to the young man, and returned to the lobby of the inn.

"Let me in! Do whatever you want in Ben Gongzi's territory, you don't want to die! See how I punish you!" The young man, no matter how much the thief begged for mercy, still pushed the thief, and returned to the inn.

Tao Ziyun looked inside the lobby, and the shopkeeper did not stay in the lobby to punish the thief, but pushed the thief to the inner courtyard.

Zhu Shiyan muttered softly: "This won't work! If you catch the thief, you can either send him to the government to investigate his responsibility, or beat him up, and then let him go in private.

Tao Ziyun looked at the signboard of this inn, which read: "Guanglin Inn".

Tao Ziyun beckoned a few fellow travelers and said, "It's a little strange, don't let him go too far, let's go in and have a look!" Brother Jie, you go in too, and then call your guy over." ”

Liang Zhangju discussed with Tao Ziyun: "When we enter the lobby, it can be said that we want to eat something, but that person has gone inside, do we want to go in and stay so that we can follow inside?"

"If we go in and stay in the lodgings, negotiate with them for the price and pay the money, and then let them slowly take them to the rooms, then we won't have time to find out where the innkeeper and the thief are. Come with me and jump in through the wall beside you. Tao Ziyun said, pushing Liang Zhangju and Zhu Shiyan under the wall next to the inn.

Liang Zhangju and Zhu Shiyan stood under the high wall and shouted bitterly: "How can you get by with such a high wall without a ladder?"

At this time, there were pedestrians passing by on the road, Tao Ziyun did not answer the difficult questions of Liang Zhangju and Zhu Shiyan, and when there were no pedestrians on the road, he took three people with him, one jumped, and jumped into the wall of the Guanglin Inn.

Liang Zhangju sighed in surprise: "It turns out that Master Tao is so good, and we have the ability to leap over." ”

In front of him was a long nine-curved corridor, and on the pillars next to the corridor hung lit lanterns, and in the distance of the corridor was the shopkeeper who was pushing the thief forward.

"Leave that alone, come with me. Tao Ziyun took a few people into the nine-song corridor, and quickly chased after him, "Don't panic, others will think that we are guests staying here." ”

It was about to be approached, when the shopkeeper took a lantern from the pillar of the cloister. As the house where the guest was staying was approaching, and there was no light in the unoccupied house, it was evident that the shopkeeper was going to lock the thief in one of the rooms.

I saw that the thief took the opportunity of the shopkeeper to get the lantern, broke free from the master's grasp, and ran into the dark courtyard, because just now, the thief's hands and feet were not tied, and he ran away, and his skills were quite agile!

"Catch that guy and tie him up!" At the shouts of the shopkeeper, a group of people ran from the guest room, and another group of people ran from the lobby to surround the thief.

The desperate thief was not long tied up with a thick rope and pushed in front of the shopkeeper, who asked, "Master, what to do with this man?"

The shopkeeper simply ordered, "Escort him to the firewood room!"

The juniors shoved and escorted the thief into a dark room.

"You'd better go about your business, and when I punish this thief here, I'll go to the lobby to greet the guests." At the behest of the shopkeeper, the little two dispersed.

The shopkeeper carried the lantern into the firewood room.

Tao Ziyun motioned for everyone not to make a sound, and took the three people to the window of the firewood room.

Tao Ziyun and the others looked into the firewood room from the window, only to see the shopkeeper say to the thief: "Originally, I wanted to make you into a meat bun so that I could entertain the guests who were stolen by you, but I thought that this firewood room needs to be guarded, so I will leave you alive, and you can take care of the firewood room for me here!"

Then there was the thief's pleading, and the shopkeeper smiled: "I did this, and I still have your life alive, what are you afraid of?"

In Tao Ziyun's confusion, the shopkeeper recited a spell and turned the thief into a dog!

The shopkeeper untied the rope that had bound the thief's hands and feet, tore off one of the ropes, tied the dog's neck, and tied the other end to the door frame: "In this cold season, there are often customers who come to fetch firewood for warmth, and the door of the firewood room is always broken and cannot be closed. You show me the door of the firewood room, and when someone comes, you will call and scare the guests who want to steal the firewood, even if you do your duty, and if this continues, I will keep your life alive. ”

The dog barked, but the owner ignored it, and the door was closed, and he was about to walk out......!
