Chapter 291 What Sikong Zhaixing stole

night.

Li Mu, Hua Manlou and Sikong Zhaixing sat opposite each other.

"Tell me."

Li Mu looked at the embarrassed Sikong Zhaixing and asked, "Whose treasure did you steal this time, and what did you steal?"

"This one……"

Sikong Zhaixing smiled awkwardly and said, "Because I stole a batch of treasures from the Ming Dynasty Palace not long ago, I am being hunted by the Jinyi Guards and the people from Hulong Villa."

"Hulong Villa?"

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Mu's eyes, and he said: "You stole something from the palace, shouldn't you be chased by the Six Gates or the Shenhou Mansion? How could you be chased by the Jinyi Guards?

It makes sense to be chased by Jin Yiwei.

But Hulong Villa shouldn’t have this responsibility, right? "

"Who said it wasn't."

Sikong Tongxin also looked depressed and said: "This time, the people from the Six Gates and the Shenhou Mansion didn't show up at all, and it was the Jin Yiwei who came up!

If it were just Jin Yiwei, I wouldn't pay attention at all.

But the people at Hulong Villa chased me more aggressively than Jin Yiwei. What a ghost! "

"More active than Jin Yiwei?"

Li Mu listened to Sikong Zhaixing's complaint with a look of interest on his face, and then asked, "Then what exactly did you steal this time?"

"It's nothing, just a batch of ordinary jewelry."

Sikong Zhaixing said somewhat gloomily: "I have done this kind of thing more than once before, like going to the palace to steal things.

Because I usually don’t take anything important, so in the past, the people from Six Doors would symbolically chase me for a period of time. I didn’t expect that this time it would cause such a big fuss, and people from Dragon Protection Villa would come in to intervene. What a hell! "

"Ordinary jewelry?"

When Li Mu heard what Sikong Zhaixing said, his eyes showed a hint of thought, and then he asked with a smile: "You couldn't have accidentally stolen the national seal of the Ming Dynasty?"

Famous thieves in the world would be embarrassed to say they were famous unless they went to a palace once or twice, as if being able to steal things from the palace would show off their abilities.

Sikong Zhaixing is known as the 'King of Thieves'. If he didn't go to the palace once or twice a year to steal something, he would probably be embarrassed to be called this nickname.

For this kind of thing, the court's response is that they will try their best to arrest them at the beginning.

If you can't catch it at the beginning, it will be perfunctory later.

If a thief like Sikong Zhaixing, who 'patronized' several times in the palace every year, could be caught, the court would have caught him long ago.

But this time, not only the Jinyi Guards, but also the Dragon Guard Villa were dispatched, which was obviously abnormal.

There can only be one reason for the Ming court's abnormal behavior, that is, Sikong Zhaixing may have taken something he shouldn't have taken this time.

"how is this possible!"

Sikong Zhaixing screamed in grievance and said loudly: "I have been to the Ming Palace so many times, and I still know what can and cannot be taken. This time I just took some ordinary jewelry!"

Sikong Zhaixing was also very depressed. At first, he thought that he might have taken something he shouldn't have this time, which was why the Ming court was pursuing him like this.

But he checked it many times and was very sure that what he got this time was a batch of ordinary jewelry. The value may not be as high as what he got a few times before, so he couldn't figure out why he would look for it this time. This kind of reaction came from the Ming court.

"Could it be that you so-called 'divine thieves' and 'stealing saints' often visited the palace, which made the Ming Dynasty a little annoyed and wanted to cut off this trend? Then you happened to be regarded as a model, and you are facing the current situation. Situation?" Huamanlou analyzed.In the martial arts world of the Central Plains, when it comes to "professionals" in stealing things, among the four major imperial courts, the Ming Dynasty can be said to be the most outstanding. Even the imperial court like the Song Dynasty, which has no binding force on people in the world, is not as good as the "thieves" in its territory. This was rampant in the Ming Dynasty.

As for the so-called 'professionals' who specialize in stealing, the best way to make a name for themselves is to steal things from the palace.

Many such things happen every year in the Daming Palace, which can be said to be deeply affected. It is normal to want to curb this trend.

"This...is really possible!"

After listening to Hua Manlou's analysis, Sikong Zhaixing suddenly realized, and then said with a sad and angry look: "But why did you choose me?"

"Ha ha!"

Hua Manlou laughed loudly and said: "Isn't this just right? It means that your reputation is big enough. Isn't it because of this reputation that you went to the palace to steal things?"

"nonsense!"

Sikong Zhaixing said angrily: "I no longer need to go to the palace to steal things to increase my reputation!!"

"Then you are still going?" Li Mu said.

Sikong Zhaixing rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, "I have gone every year in the past. I am used to it."

Judging from Sikong Zhaixing's reputation in the world, he no longer needs to steal things from the palace to show off his abilities.

But he would go there once or twice a year, and he wouldn't steal anything important, just some gold, silver, and jewelry. Over time, he developed this habit.

"Get used to it...okay."

Li Mu was speechless, and then asked: "Then since you are being hunted like this, why don't you send the things back?"

"This one……"

Sikong Zhaixing scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "As soon as I left the palace, I gave all those things away."

Giving things away after stealing them was a common problem of Sikong Zhaixing, or a habit. To put it in a nicer way, it is called stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.

If it hadn't been like this, being hunted down by the Ming court this time, he would have returned the things long ago.

"..."

Li Mu was speechless, and then asked: "Tell me what you stole this time.

I always feel that the reason why you were hunted down by Hulong Villa was probably not because of what Laohua said. "

In the Ming Dynasty, the power of Hulong Villa, whether openly or secretly, was to protect the emperor's safety.

If it was true, as Hua Manlou said, that Sikong Zhaixing was regarded as a model by the Ming Dynasty and was intended to scare the monkeys, Dragon Dragon Villa should not have intervened.

At least it shouldn't be on the surface, so Li Mu felt that the most likely reason why Sikong Zhaixing would be hunted down by Hulong Villa was because of the batch of jewelry he stole from the palace this time.

Li Mu didn't mind helping Sikong Zhaixing solve the problem.

But at least find out what got him into trouble first.

"It's just a batch of ordinary jewelry!"

After listening to Li Mu's words, Sikong Zhaixing said something wrong again, then thought about it and said: "Except for some ordinary gold and silver jewelry, the most valuable things I brought out from the Ming Palace are probably A treasure called the Little Mermaid Pearl.”

With that said, Sikong Zhaixing took out a 'pearl' the size of an egg from his arms, handed it to Li Mu and Hua Manlou, and said, "Here, this is it. This thing is also what I bought from the Daming Palace this time. Among the treasures brought out, the only thing that has not been 'given away'." (End of Chapter)
