Xiao Man raised his foot and continued while wiping the water: "Therefore, I expected that he would come to me, not Pan Shibi. So I went to Pan's house last night, and I didn't think there was any movement, so I came back to see our own territory. When I went out again tonight, it was as if someone was crouching behind a nearby tree. I figured that my disguise must have been seen through, so I hurriedly re-planned, went to a familiar pawnshop, borrowed a dress, and found a new sedan chair, hiding in the sedan chair for a new look. ”

Jing Mo suddenly brightened up and said, "So that's the case, I said why did you come back in a sedan chair, and your clothes have changed." Then you must have seen 'Flying in the Sky' at this time, right? ”

Xiao Man nodded, and continued: "I rested around that corner for a while, and then went around two circles, at first I saw two sneaky people ambushing across the street, and then I saw a person dressed like me walking in here. Then I knew that the man was really "flying in the sky". ”

Jing Mo thought to himself: "Nie Xiaoman's adaptability is indeed superior, but it's a pity that I was in the drum before with the twists and turns in this." After thinking for a while, Jing Mo reluctantly reproached: "Since you saw him come in." If you don't catch him and don't stop him, it's too risky after all. ”

"Huh? How can you see the adventure? I don't arrest him, in order to leave some leeway, this person's skills are extraordinary, there is no need to force him, let alone block. You must know that although the place where I hid the treasure is in front of me, I will not notice it in my hurry, even if he searches carefully, he will never think for a moment that there is a treasure in the ink of this inkstone, and I am absolutely sure of this. ”

Jing Mo said again: "Then if he uses other methods, for example, to grab me and tie me up." If you search carefully, then your plans will not be in vain! ”

"You don't have to worry too much about this, if he delays here a little longer, then I will naturally come in to prevent him from doing you a detriment."

"That said, but in my opinion, it would be a miscalculation for you to let him go easily this time. Although he didn't succeed in the matter of the Night Pearl, the case of the treasure antique shop was very large, and the amount involved was 10,000 taels. If you take him, then—"

Nie Xiaoman suddenly interjected with a stern face: "Jingmo, why are you so greedy and forgetful?" Have you forgotten the 'Severed Fingers' and 'Black Dungeon' cases? Although this person walked outside the law of the Ming Dynasty, he never crossed the line of the husband's 'righteousness'. Many of his targets were the rich and powerful, or those who only knew the honor of hereditary glory but did not know labor. To put it bluntly, this "flying in the sky" is not the kind of wicked person we must put to death. Those who suffered under his hands were afraid that many would die and there would be more innocent people. ”

Jing Mo thought about the Pan family's extravagant style, and couldn't help but sigh.

Nie Xiaoman said again: "Now the case of the treasure antique shop, I don't have any burden at all. On the one hand, I have fulfilled my promise to keep it for three days, and on the other hand, I have learned his face and appearance, and I have replaced the real with the fake, and I have teased him once. So apart from the small loss of the iron box, we can be considered a complete victory. Why aren't you satisfied—"

When Nie Xiaoman said this, he stood up, put on his socks again, and listened to the movement outside. After a while, Wei Pu walked in, holding a few cloth clothes and a black bib in his right hand, a six-hat hat, and a small paper bag in his left hand.

Wei Pu said: "Master Qiyu, a person has been sent from the pawnshop. I explained to him the reason, and the man had brought back his clothes and other things. He also brought this cloak with him. As he spoke, Wei Pu put the sir, padded jacket and pants and the gray six-hat on the chair, and handed the small paper bag in his other hand to Nie Xiaoman. This little paper bag was just delivered by someone who said he wanted to give it to you. The man was quite tall, dressed in a black silk robe, and when he was finished, he left-"

Nie Xiaoman didn't wait for him to finish, didn't say a word, and hurriedly took the paper bag and folded it. The paper is wrapped in several layers of kraft paper. It contained a letterhead, a small yellow satin bag tied with red silk, and a small roll of silver tickets. Nie Xiaoman had already unfolded the letterhead. On the letterhead, it is also a vigorous and lively Zhao Tixing block letter...... That channel:

"Brother Nie, I have already seen that the man surnamed Pan sent people to buy 30,000 taels of cotton clothes, bedding and food from everywhere and distribute them to the homeless people. You must have instructed this. In this way, my long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, and I am very grateful for your kindness. Since the pearl of the night was kept by you, I didn't want to do much more, but if I didn't give a little trick, I would inevitably lose my love. Now I will return the original thing, and the seal has not been opened, so as to show my heart.

In addition, a number of silver tickets are included, as compensation for the cost of the iron box, sorry very much. Your friend Su Jingmo also hopes that you will apologize on his behalf.

The green mountains do not change, and the green water always flows.

"Plugging in the Sky and Flying" Seventeen Days

When they had finished reading the letter, they looked at each other in silence for a moment, but did not speak. Wei Pu also withdrew with a surprised look. In the silence, you can hear the whirring wind outside the window and the "crackling" sound in the stove.

After a while, Nie Xiaoman stood up, yawned, put his hands behind his back, fixed his eyes on the carpet, and nodded a few times, as if an art connoisseur was admiring a work of fine art.

Xiao Man said slowly: "Jingmo, "Plug in the sky" is really a good guy! We've finally met a tough opponent today! He paced a few steps, and then said, "Jingmo, I plan to send someone to deliver a letter to the rich man surnamed Pan, asking him to donate another 20,000 taels to the people, in exchange for his night pearl." ”

Jing Mo was surprised: "What do you mean?" Do you want him to donate another 20,000? ”

"Yes. That's what I meant. I offered him 35,000 that day, and he only chose a smaller amount. Although I don't know the details of this person, I expect that I have been a salt official for half my life, and there is no innocent money in this salt business. I did it, of course, not for him. If it's cheaper, it won't be my long-cherished wish. ”

Saying this, Jing Mo also praised it.

Xiaoman said: "Confucianism has been passed down through the ages, but it is the most important Confucius, and the four books after the Song Dynasty are more important than the Five Classics, and Mencius is almost not mentioned in this dynasty." As the so-called: live in the world, establish the right position of the world, and walk the road of the world; Gain the will, and the people by it; Unwilling, go it alone. In my opinion, this kind of husbandly spirit is the essence of Confucianism. ”

Jing Mo sighed and said: "It's just that over the ages, the landlords of the king of people have to play the tricks of internal law and external Confucianism, not to mention the real Confucianism, and use the evil methods of Han Fei, Wu Qi, Shang Ying and Li Si to bluff people's hearts. ”

A bright moon hung in the sky, sprinkling a bright light, as if spreading a layer of white mist on the gluttonous cat. Now, quietly, a gust of wind broke the silence of the night.

The night is a night of calm contemplation. On this autumn night, there may be a lot of people who are confused by the facts of the day, but at this moment, people can put aside all the distractions, calm down, and think about how to solve it.

Tonight, at least the homeless people will have a cotton coat to protect them from the cold.
