Chapter 69 Catch a thief at night and chase after him

As night fell, the courtyard on the east side of the town hall was brightly lit.

Zhang Wenfeng had a pile of scattered papers in his hand. After discussing it with Lao Wu and Che Sheng, he instructed the five wanderers in the town to use the method of throwing copper coins to give benefits, through the streets of idlers, green leather, and various methods. way to collect secretly.

The snake has its way, and the rat has its way.

You Xi wanted to know something about a certain local family, and he had their connections.

For example, by asking the dealers, you can know the types and quantities of vegetables that Xie's family buys these days, and so on.

Passed a stack of papers to Wu Youde who was sitting opposite, and Che Sheng, who was in better spirits, said with a smile:

"Look again, if there are really only three outsiders in Xie Laocai's family and they haven't left in the afternoon, then let's close the net early tonight, and they basically won't escape."

One person counts short, two counts long.

He alone knows limited handling methods, so he naturally discussed countermeasures with Old Wu.

Make Lao Wu feel that he is being reused and flattered.

Besides, after seeing Mr. Zhang's methods, how dare he not try his best to help out ideas, think of ways, and strive to make more contributions. He thought that Mr. Zhang deliberately tested his level of handling cases, so he dared not be negligent.

Later, Che Sheng, who was recovering from his injuries, was also called out to make suggestions together.

After reading all the pieces of paper, Wu Youde thought for a while, and said, "It should be right, there are only three foreigners." After hesitating, he asked, and said, "Sir, if there are two monks among the three, Let's go and catch them, things may happen."

Che Sheng nodded in agreement. He had personally experienced the strength of the cultivator. It was so powerful that he could not stop two moves.

The cultivator who robbed people today did not intend to kill, probably because he was afraid of getting into trouble, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"My judgment is that they only have one monk. Even if there are two monks, just leave it to me. Even though you are responsible for capturing Jie Laocai's family and the thief who was robbed, don't leave one behind."

Zhang Wenfeng said it very normally.

He didn't say anything about not being allowed to hurt people's lives.

Compassion does not command soldiers, and he will not be soft on thieves who dare to break into the town hall in the daytime to hurt and rob people.

If Xie Laocai's family dared to resist the arrest, some casualties would be unavoidable. The experienced Wu Youde would pass on the specific details.

He must be responsible for the lives of his subordinates, You Xi and Xiang Yong, who led him to perform official duties.

"My subordinate understands."

Wu Youde and Che Sheng actually didn't quite understand where Master Zhang's confidence came from, and they held orders.

They only hope to solve the three thieves hiding in Lao Cai's house. As the adults said, there is only one monk.

"Okay, let's go ahead and tell Zhong Youxi and the others to prepare separately. At [-]:[-] a.m., they made a noise at the main entrance of Xie Lao Cai's house. Let's rush in from the west wing over the wall to perform official duties, so as not to have long nights and dreams. We must guard against the rumors Let the thieves hide."

The plan has been discussed many times long ago, how many people are surrounded outside, and where the bluff is, all have been explained.

Wu Youde cupped his fists and said "De Ling" before leaving in a hurry.

The moon hangs high in the treetops.

Except for a few inns, restaurants, and half-closed doors for night business in the town, there are few people on the street.

The bustle and bustle of the town is only during the day, which cannot be compared with the county seat.

Most people who make a living are reluctant to light the lamps, so as not to waste oil and wax, they go to bed early.

Xie's house has two entrances into a single-door courtyard, and the shop is at the end of the street on the side of the house.

Relying on the convenience of water transportation, he operates a variety of medicinal materials, opens a pharmacy shop, completes the prescribing of medicines, and also buys medicinal herbs picked by mountain villagers in Shili Baxiang. The business is doing well.

Zhang Wenfeng, Wu Youde, and Che Sheng came to the second entrance to the west wing of the Xie Zhai outside the guest house wall. They had already inquired clearly that the three foreigners lived upstairs in the guest house.

Zhong Youxu led a person out of the dark alley.

They were responsible for secretly monitoring and gesturing to indicate that the thief did not escape.

Then there was a knock on the door and shouts from the main entrance: "Following the order of the County City Daolu Branch Court, search and release the house! Jie Youcai, you have committed the case of harboring three thieves, and you will be arrested soon!"

Others pulled out their weapons and held torches, shouting and cheering.

Someone has already climbed in from the front wall and opened the main door, and everyone rushed in.

This is called a bright identity, a teacher who is well-known, using the name of the government as a deterrent, daring to resist is against the government, even if the neighbors are alarmed, no one dares to help hide, as for the old man guarding the side room, he has long been scared and at a loss what to do Six gods have no master.

Zhang Wenfeng was the first to leap up the wall, and saw a figure shaking above the guest room.

His eyes were sharp, and seeing that the man was wearing a gray suit that was easy to walk in, he yelled, "Where are we going?" He tapped his feet lightly, and he reached the second floor.

The Bizhu sword came out of its sheath, swaying a light blue sword light.

"Dangdang" fought quickly several times, and the sword light reflected the opponent's face, he was a capable man in his thirties.

With a flash of his figure, the sword bloomed like a plum blossom, blocking the opponent's sharp knife.

The foot moved with it, spinning like a whip, and with the sound of the wind, it struck the side of the head and neck of another man who jumped out of the door. This move has a name, "twitch the legs", it is one of the old cripple's lore moves, and it is also Taking advantage of the situation, he passed a sneak attack from the side.

The man who got kicked threw the knife aside, like a piece of wood smashed through the wooden railing of the corridor, and fell straight to the ground, passing out in the air.

Following Wu Youde who climbed into the courtyard wall, he quickly landed in the courtyard, quickly reached out, grabbed the man's shirt by the chest, lost his momentum, then threw it on the ground and patched two fingers to ensure that even if the thief woke up, he would have no resistance .

He took advantage of the moonlight to see the faces of the men on the ground clearly, and couldn't help being happy.

It's really a coincidence that the guy who was robbed was caught alive again by Mr. Zhang.

"You have been surrounded, those who dare to resist will be killed without mercy!"

Wu Youde shouted to silence the commotion and cries from the backyard and the east wing.

He flew up, jumped up to the gap on the second floor, and flanked another man in a black suit who was stopped by Che Sheng from behind. After chasing the thief monk, he flew out of the courtyard wall.

I don't know if Mr. Zhang can catch the thief who dared to break into the town hall and committed the crime of assassinating Tolerance?
Seeing a few Youxi and Xiang Yong rush into the Second Hospital, he knew that the overall situation here was settled.

Let's see if Master Zhang can catch the biggest fish as lightly as he says.

Zhang Wenfeng stepped low and leaped high, with a figure as light as a swallow, tightly attached to the black-clothed decoration man who jumped over the courtyard wall and fled towards the river embankment in the northwest of the town, shouting in his mouth: "Where is the thief going? If you don't let go, you will be arrested, and you will be punished!" "

He barked loudly on purpose to inform the donkeys wandering around Jiezhai Alley to come and join him.

There is a great advantage in not revealing the donkey's ability. No one will guard against a donkey who looks stupid and ordinary.

The black-clothed cultivator who was fleeing ahead sneered and fought a few tricks. He had already seen through the truth of the guy behind him. The Daolu Branch of Xiling County was a cowardly young man who had cultivated in the mid-Qi realm and did not even have a cultivator to help him. If you want to capture him alive, I don't know who gave him the guts?

It seems that the official government is used to doing things recklessly, and I don't know how much I have.

It is inconvenient for him to hurt people in the town, he finds it troublesome.

After being led out of the town and on the remote river beach, I will tell the boy to know how many eyes Lord Ma has, and when I go back later, I will grab the two burdens back. As for the follow-up, other people will take care of it.

Under the moonlight, a donkey with a luggage hat on its back rushed up.

run very happy.
