Chapter 128
Time goes by.

The happy days always pass quickly, and it is already a month later.

this day.

Tongfu Inn.

When Guo Furong was sweeping with a broom, she suddenly pinched her nose, frowned and shouted, "Ah, why is it so stinky?"

His eyes dimmed, and when he looked up, he saw a ragged man standing at the door, looking at the inn.

Guo Furong took a few steps back, and asked perfunctorily, "Guest officer, do you want to be a top student or stay in a hotel?"

Obviously this is not the first time the man has been treated like this, and he said calmly, "I'll take a bath."

Guo Furong pointed to the outside and reminded: "The bathhouse is on East Street..."

The man took out a bundle from his pocket and threw it on the table. Guo Furong stepped forward and saw that there were all kinds of jewels inside. Her eyes lit up, she picked up the bundle, and said with a smile, "I'll boil water for you right now." .”

After finishing speaking, she seemed afraid that the man would repent, so she ran to the backyard with her burden in her arms, and went to find Bai Zhantang, and said that she believed in the level of the thief to distinguish the authenticity of the treasures.

At this time.

Tong Xiangyu played with a jade plaque around her neck, and went downstairs happily. When she saw the man sitting at the door, staring at her chest, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and couldn't help covering it with her hands, chatting embarrassingly He said hello: "It's very cold, it seems to be raining."

While speaking, he walked towards the backyard.

The man looked at Tong Xiangyu's back and murmured, "Could it be that the Thief is a woman?"

However, a month ago, because Owen boiled a pot of medicinal food that greatly nourished the essence, he gave a bowl to Bai Zhantang and Guo Furong, which made both of them break through in their martial arts.

Complacent, Bai Zhantang talked about his dream with Tong Xiangyu: "One wife, one concubine, plus two big houses."

As soon as these words came out, Tong Xiangyu, who had been flirting with Bai Zhantang for two years, immediately became jealous, and chased Bai Zhantang desperately to greet him softly.

No matter how good his martial arts skills were, Bai Zhantang did not dare to fight Tong Xiangyu. Apologizing and his usual ambiguous language were no longer enough to calm Tong Xiangyu's anger surging in his second pulse.

Tong Xiangyu took out the Stealing Sacred Jade Plaque in his arms, the anger in his eyes became even worse, he gritted his teeth and said, "Oh, who is this good friend? Is it your wife or your concubine?"

Bai Zhantang's heart trembled, seeing Tong Xiangyu's expression for the first time, he had an idea, and subconsciously said: "What kind of match is this, I'm going to give it to you."

"Give it to me?"

Tong Xiangyu was stunned, and then the anger in his heart subsided instantly. This was the first time Bai Zhantang gave her something, and it was of great significance, so he smiled charmingly at Bai Zhantang, and then seriously played with the jade token in his hand.

Bai Zhantang just wanted to temporarily appease Tong Xiangyu's anger, and didn't really want to give away his Stealing Sacred Jade Plaque. Seeing that Tong Xiangyu had calmed down, he explained with an apologetic smile: "This is my most precious thing. It is the thing that my fellow pirates have treated me for many years. Appreciation for the hard work."

"Pirate Saint!"

At this time, Tong Xiangyu also found the handwriting engraved on it, and when he heard Bai Zhantang said that it was his most precious thing, he was overjoyed, and the eyes that glanced at Bai Zhantang were watery, almost drowning the reflection of Bai Zhantang in his pupils.

"Zhantang, you are so kind to me..."

"Huh~"

Bai Zhantang shivered uncomfortably, and was just about to organize his words to return the Stealing Sacred Jade Plaque, but Tong Xiangyu had already happily hung the Stealing Sacred Jade Plaque around his neck, and the jade plaque also hung between two mountain peaks. The hand that goes out can only be retracted.

He is a thief, not a flower picker.

For a month, Tong Xiangyu stayed with him, making Bai Zhantang gradually accept his fate and let go.

backyard.

When Tong Xiangyu came, he saw Guo Furong and the two of them surrounded by the millstone. There was a large bag of jewels on the millstone. Bai Zhantang was playing with a bead in his hand, and he said in admiration, "These are all ancient relics from the Western Han Dynasty. They have never appeared on the market before. Let's not talk about anything else, just talk about this bead, and you can exchange ten Tongfu Inns."

Guo Furong's eyes were rounded, and she snatched the beads from Bai Zhantang's hand, wrapped up all the jewels, and was about to hand them over to Tong Xiangyu in exchange for freedom, but she didn't want Tong Xiangyu to take over the burden from behind, and said, "Tips are not allowed." Guo Furong's proposal was rejected.

When the three of them were arguing, Owen came over from Baozhilin, saw the situation and said with a smile: "It's so lively."

"Xiao Ou, you came at the right time. You come to judge. I exchange this big bag of jewelry and the shopkeeper's for my freedom. She not only disagrees, but also wants to take it all by herself. Is there any reason?"

Since a month ago, with Owen's help, Guo Furong broke through to the second floor from the first floor of her eternal immovability, and fulfilled her dream of imitating her father's adventure skills and greatly increasing her skills. Attitude, that's a good one.

"There are 23 store rules. Private tips are not allowed, Xiao Ou, you can understand."

Tong Xiangyu explained.

Owen smiled and said, "Where did this thing come from?"

Guo Furong hurriedly said: "The guest gave me just now, and it's full of jewelry from the Western Han Dynasty. Just a single bead can be exchanged for ten Tongfu Inns."

Owen glanced at Bai Zhantang, and reminded: "Brother, I'm afraid these things are stolen goods, if they are left behind, they may cause disaster to the inn."

Tong Xiangyu's face tightened, but she still held on to the jewels and said hesitantly, "No way?"

Bai Zhantang snorted softly: "You can't walk when you see money. Once these things are sold, they will definitely cost more than 1 taels. Have you ever seen a guest staying at a hotel for 1 taels?"

Tong Xiangyu was struggling for the last time: "Maybe, maybe he is rich and willful..."

Seeing that there was nothing to do with her, Guo Furong sarcastically said: "The richer people are, just like you, the more stingy they are. If it were you, would you spend so much money?"

"... Then you say, should we do this?"

Tong Xiangyu reluctantly put the burden in his arms on the millstone, and asked.

"How about we report to the police?"

Bai Zhantang immediately vetoed it: "No, we are open for business. If the reputation of reporting customers spreads, how will we open a store in the future? Besides, most of these people are not alone. If you mess with one, we will cause trouble in the future."

Upon hearing this, Tong Xiangyu immediately dismissed the plan to report the case, and frowned, "Then what should we do? Zhantang, you have experience, so you should figure it out."

Guo Furong agreed: "Yes, yes, Lao Bai, you are the ancestor of the thief, go out and talk to him, how dare he not give you face?"

Bai Zhantang rolled his eyes: "That was in the past, I have turned my back on evil, and now I don't even have the Stealing Sacred Jade Card in my hands, so what kind of ancestor am I?"

As he said that, he looked at the jade tablet in Tong Xiangyu's wave valley with his eyes.

Tong Xiangyu hurriedly covered it with his hand, ignoring Bai Zhantang's criticism, turned his head to look at Owen, and said with a smile: "Xiao Ou, you are the smartest, is there any good way?"

Owen recalled the plot and suggested: "Return these things to the other party first, and then just pretend that you don't know about it."

"Exhibition hall?"

Tong Xiangyu subconsciously asked Bai Zhantang for his opinion.

"Well, what Xiao Ou said makes sense. Even if something happens in the future, we don't know about it. Those who don't know are not guilty. In this way, you don't show up. Let me greet him and let him leave early, so you won't have to worry about it."

"Okay, let's do that."

"What are you doing? Didn't you tell me to do this? Let go. If you don't let go, I don't care about it. If something happens in the future, you ask me to kill you that day. I will be the shopkeeper when I come back. I have already thought about the name, Lao Bai. Shabu Shabu shop."

"Exhibition hall~"

Under Tong Xiangyu's distressed eyes, Bai Zhantang picked up the bag and walked towards the lobby.

Owen comforted: "Master, this kind of thing is mostly dug out from the tomb of some high-ranking official. It is unlucky, and once the government finds it out, you can't hide it. You will be found by the government if you take it. Reluctant to let go, it will be called restlessness at that time, letting go now is definitely a blessing rather than a curse."

Tong Xiangyu complained: "Xiao Ou, what you said is very reasonable, but I can't control myself. Seeing these valuable jewels slip away from my hands, my heart hurts so much, so painful."

"..."

The next day.

An exclamation resounded through Tongfu Inn.

Even Owen heard it in Baozhilin.

When Owen came to Tongfu Inn, he saw Tong Xiangyu pestering Bai Zhantang, begging in his mouth, "Zhantang, I'm sorry, hurry up and get that sign back."

"I won't look for it, whoever wants it will want it."

"Exhibition hall~"

"Boss, what's the matter?"

"Xiao Ou, you came at the right time, help me persuade your senior brother, the jade token he gave me was stolen by that person yesterday, and Zhantang still refuses to get it back."

"I've repented of my evil ways, so why do I need that thing? It's better to throw it away. It's over once and for all."

Tong Xiangyu pulled Owen aside, and whispered in Owen's ear: "Xiao Ou, that brand is the most precious thing in the exhibition hall, and it is also the first gift he gave me. How many firsts can a person have in his life?" Second-rate……"

Owen nodded and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, I understand, don't worry, the jade card will come back."

"Why are you back?"

"Wait patiently."

"..."

Tong Xiangyu has fallen into an obsession with this brand, and ran out alone to look for it all day. After nightfall, he finally found the other party at the door of the inn. After talking with him, he found out that the other party's name was Lei Laowu, a tomb robber. , I want to compete with Thief Saint.

The two made an appointment to meet at the inn tomorrow.

The next day, Lei Lao Wu put the Stealing Sacred Jade Plaque on the plaque of the Yamen Court, and took it as a gamble to compete with Bai Zhantang, but he didn't want to be discovered by Lao Xing and the others. Waiting for someone to talk about it and express their feelings, it happened that there were sewer problems in various places at this time. Lei Lao Wu's behavior of mistakenly hitting and bumping into him was considered by others to be a master at dredging the sewer, so he sent eight sedan chairs to carry it. Come on, from now on, a tomb robber has turned into a professional in dredging sewers.

But the sacred jade tablet was still placed behind the plaque in the yamen court.

Bai Zhantang refused to take it, Tong Xiangyu rolled his eyes, came to Baozhilin, and smiled flatteringly at Owen.
