Chapter 127: Theft

The moon is dusk, and the cold wind is biting.

Liu Tie sat on the cold roof, quiet all around, without the slightest movement, in the Yizi courtyard, two figures were wandering, Liu Tie slid down from the roof, patrolled the courtyard, and then stood on the edge of the courtyard wall, turned over his divine sense, and explored the Yizi courtyard.

After stepping into the threshold of the Grandmaster, his divine sense increased greatly, and the distance he could probe was vastly different from when he was a martial artist.

The two guards of the Yizi Courtyard were very vigilant, and their attention was always very good, Liu Tie waited for half an hour, but still did not find a good opportunity, he waited patiently for the opportunity.

The moonlight was tilting in the west, the cold wind was stronger, and the two guards guarded most of the night, and they were also a little tired, a little slack, Liu Tie seized the opportunity, his figure flashed slightly, and he stuck it on the wall of the B-shaped room.

The layout of the B-shaped courtyard and the A-shaped courtyard is roughly the same, both are two rows of rooms, and a courtyard is enclosed in the middle, just a courtyard of the same size, the A-shaped courtyard has only four rooms, and the B-shaped courtyard has eight rooms, Liu Tie has already explored Fu Xian's room.

He stuck to the wall, borrowed the power of his chest and abdomen, slowly swam upward, and soon reached Fu Xian's roof, this road took him a lot of time, every time he passed a room, he paid attention to the movement in the room, maybe it was too nervous in the past two days, after getting the news of the thief in the afternoon, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and slept relatively deeply.

Liu Tie quietly took away the tiles on Fu Xian's roof, this process took a long time, and each tile was wrapped in internal breath, not daring to make a sound.

Moving open the hole, it was dark underneath, there was no light, but this was no trouble for Liu Tie, he fell silently into the room, and the inner breath poured into his eyes, and the dark room seemed to have light.

He walked to the side of the bed silently, looked at Fu Xian on the bed, Fu Xian was sleeping a little deeply, and there was a hint of wine in the breath he exhaled, and he ordered his black sweet hole, and Liu Tie began to search.

Open the burden at the head of the bed, Liu Tie couldn't help but shake his head, the master invented the leather bag in the Western Regions, after returning to the Great Jin Dynasty, he set up a leather bag workshop in the imperial capital, and now the imperial capital has sold, all kinds of beautiful leather bags have become a new fashion for women, and those merchants prefer all kinds of leather bags, carrying the leather box is much more convenient than any baggage.

Open the baggage, the contents of the inspection one by one, did not find anything, but a small porcelain bottle, caught his attention, there is a wax sealed pill in it, he thought a little and then put the medicine bottle into his arms, thought for a moment and put away the stack of silver tickets.

After searching carefully, he didn't find anything valuable, Liu Tie couldn't help frowning, these things were definitely not the target of that gang of thieves, what were they looking for?

He looked at it for a while, locked his eyes on Fu Xian's pillow, he gently moved Fu Xian's head away, touched the pillow, and sure enough, he touched an envelope, he put the envelope into his arms, and then moved Fu Xian back, ready to pack up the baggage, and after a little hesitation, he gave up again.

Flashed on the roof, did not restore the roof tiles, still slowly swam across the roof, and took advantage of the lack of attention from the guards in the yard to return to the courtyard of the first word.

He found a corner in the courtyard and sat down cross-legged and began to meditate and breathe.

The next day, Tian Hao got up early in the morning, perhaps because of the excitement of getting out of trouble, he came out early in the morning, and saw Liu Tie pranayama cross-legged, so he came over, and was about to speak, Liu Tie suddenly opened his eyes.

Tian Hao was slightly stimulated, and couldn't help but say, "I thought you were asleep." ”

Liu Tie replied coldly: "I accepted your silver, and I respect the silver." ”

Tian Hao laughed: "Cheng, refreshing, aren't you cold like this? meditate like this, what if someone comes in at night?"

"No one can get in. Liu Tie closed his eyes after speaking.

"It's so hard to let you speak," Liu Tie said simply, but Tian Hao was very satisfied, he also sat on the ground casually, feeling the coldness on the ground, he quickly stood up: "Aren't you cold?"

"Cold. ”

"Leng is still sitting on the ground. ”

"I have taken your money. ”

Tian Hao couldn't cry or laugh, Liu Tie slowly stood up, glanced at Tian Ban, and then walked straight to the room, Tian Hao couldn't help shaking his head behind his back.

"Second master, leave after breakfast, right?" Tian Ban came over and asked, Tian Hao nodded, looked at the sky, and scolded: "This ghost weather." ”

Breakfast was eaten in the room, and the man knew that they were leaving today, so he was very careful to serve them, for fear of touching the mold.

Tian Hao just put down the dishes and chopsticks, just went out, and suddenly heard a commotion in the courtyard next door, someone was talking loudly, he couldn't help wrinkling slightly, looked up over there, and asked Tian Geng, "What's going on over there?"

Tian Geng shook his head: "I don't know, second master, what does he do." ”

Tian Hao's expression was full of worry, Liu Tie changed his clothes and came out, Tian Ban packed his luggage and came to report that the carriage had been set, Tian Hao nodded, and was about to announce his departure, Fu Xian came over in a panic.

"Brother Bowen, what are you..... What's wrong?"

Tian Hao looked at Fu Xian in surprise, Fu Xian looked very flustered, and even changed his clothes indiscriminately, and he didn't even wear socks on his feet.

"Something happened!" Fu Xian's expression was gloomy, completely devoid of yesterday's arrogance, and he was even trembling.

"Don't panic, don't panic," Tian Hao was very shocked in his heart, and the worry in his heart was even stronger, he let Fu Xian into the room and ordered Tian Ban to guard the door.

"A thief came to my room last night and I lost something very important. Fu Xian said hurriedly.

"What is it?" Tian Hao asked, Fu Xian shook his head, sat down dejectedly, obviously refused to say, Tian Hao took a deep breath, did not ask the content, and asked: "How did you lose it? How did the thief enter your room?"

Fu Xian shook his head, and repeated in despair: "How can I explain to the prince!

Tian Hao couldn't help but be anxious when he saw this: "Brother Bowen, don't worry, think about it, where are you?"

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered, and hurriedly ordered outside: "Tian Ban, let Ma Tie come over." ”

Fu Xian's eyes were blank, and he didn't know why, Tian Hao poured him a cup of tea.

"You take a sip of tea first, don't worry, think about it. ”

Fu Xian took a sip of tea, still didn't speak, Tian Hao sighed, walked to the door, and called the guard who came with him, the guard happened to be the one yesterday, and asked about the situation.

The guard told him that there was a thief last night, the thief came down from the roof and lost the silver ticket, and what else, Fu Xian didn't say, just said that he had lost something important.

Liu Tie and Tian Ban came over, Tian Hao told the two of them that the Yizi Courtyard was stolen, Fu Xian lost important things, and they were on duty last night, did they find anything?

"Nope. Liu Tie's answer was very crisp.

Tian Ban thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I didn't pay attention to that side, but I heard someone talking over there." ”

Tian Hao stared at Liu Tie when he spoke, he subconsciously artificial, Liu Tie was the highest cultivation among these people, if someone could hide from the guards and sneak into Fu Xian's room, only Liu Tie had this ability.

Fu Xian's guard interjected: "This thief's light cultivation is very high, and we have two guards on duty, and we didn't notice it. He came down from the roof. ”

Liu Tie was still so indifferent and simple, without the slightest expression, Tian Ban thought about it again, still shook his head and said: "Last night, I was in the first half of the night, the weather was very cold, I stayed at the door of the room, and I didn't notice any movement. ”

Fu Xian's guards looked at Liu Tie, but Liu Tie didn't speak, Tian Hao thought for a while and said, "You guys go over and see if you can find clues." ”

Liu Tie laughed secretly in his heart, these stupid people, last night, when he left, he also made a few disguises, pretending to be snitches to steal, these guys didn't even find out, what a group of stupid people.

"Yes!" Tian Ban agreed, Liu Tie turned around and left, Fu Xian's guards hurriedly followed, and when they arrived at the Yizi Courtyard, the innkeeper was already there.

The shopkeeper's expression was shocked and frightened, the guest lost something, and he was a distinguished guest, and the inn would be unlucky if such a thing happened.

Liu Tie and Tian Ban went into the house to see, the roof opened a skylight, the skylight is not big, as long as the body is thin and weak, you can get in, this is Liu Tie's intention, the bone shrinking skill can make him easy to come in, but people who don't know can use this to eliminate him from suspicion.

"The thief should be on the thin side. Tian Ban's first sentence fell into Liu Tie's trap, Liu Tie looked up, and then carefully inspected the windows and doors.

Tian Ban felt a little strange, but he knew Liu Tie's habits, so he came over to take a look, and after the inspection, he found no traces.

Liu Tie looked up at the skylight, and at this time, the shopkeeper's somewhat panicked voice sounded in the courtyard: "Li Lichang, you are here, this guest has lost something, there is a thief, there is a thief." ”

In the shopkeeper's opinion, as long as it is proved that it is a thief from outside, at least it can not implicate the people in the inn.

Li Yi walked in, saw Liu Tie and Tian Ban, frowned slightly, didn't seem to understand why they were here, hesitated slightly, Li Yi said: "Two brothers, I want to investigate the case next, and please make it convenient for the two of you." ”

The room was not big, and the four of them seemed crowded, Fu Xian's guards withdrew first, Liu Tie also went out, and Tian Ban hesitated but stayed.

Li Yi looked up at the hole in the roof, also ignored it, turned around to check the doors and windows, and looked carefully before nodding.

"I haven't moved, what's wrong?" Tian Ban's tone was full of confusion and doubt.

"To look at the doors and windows is to see if anyone has touched the doors and windows, and exclude people coming in through the doors and windows. Li Yi said.

Tian Ban suddenly realized, it seems that this investigation is also a science, he has not walked on the rivers and lakes, he is a slave of the Tian family, he was trained to be a guard at a young age, and the masters were all invited by the Tian family.

Teng was on the roof, Liu Tie and Fu Xian's guards were on the roof, the two of them had already checked the skylight, and they looked around, Li Yi lay down at the window, carefully inspecting each tile and roof beam, and still found no traces.

"Why, no clue?" Tian Ban asked.

Li Yi nodded, he turned his head to look at Liu Tie and Fu Xian's guards, Fu Xian's guards basically didn't do anything, and before Liu Tie and them came over, the roof was checked.

Li Yi and Tian Ban went over, and before Li Yi could speak, Fu Xian's guards handed over a thin strip of cloth.

"Found under the tiles. Fu Xian's guard said, Li Yi took it carefully, took a closer look, and nodded: "This fabric is good." ”

Liu Tie turned over and got off the roof, standing on the eaves on the side of the house, Li Yi followed, and on the beam under the eaves, a piece of dust was rubbed off.

"It's from here. Li Yi said, Liu Tie nodded, and looked up at the C-shaped courtyard next door, this yard is Datongpu, the yard is not cluttered, and next to it is the stable.

After the inspection, the four of them returned to the courtyard, and Liu Tie spoke first: "The snitch's cultivation is not bad, he came in from outside." ”

Li Yi called the shopkeeper over and asked, "Who lived in the courtyard last night?"

The shopkeeper shook his head with a wry smile: "No one, the gang ran away the night before, and there was no one in this courtyard yesterday." ”

The people who attacked Fu Xian that night were the three high-rollers living in the C-shaped room, the gang of Jianghu people who were performing arts, and four other merchants.

Since the accident, the shopkeeper has a lot of heart, and he didn't let the C-shaped courtyard live anymore, and planned to wait for Fu Xian and them to leave, but he didn't expect that something would happen.

In the eyes of the shopkeeper, this Fu Xian is a disaster!

Liu Tie and Li Yi walked to the front of the courtyard, looked at the wall for a long time, found a very small trace, and found a broken dead branch on the other side of the wall, the fracture was new.

"The snitch came in from the outside. Li Yi sighed and said, it's difficult to do now, this snitch is going to run away, go up there and find it.

Liu Tie didn't speak, got up and looked at Fu Xian's guards, and said, "The snitch comes in from here and goes out from there." ”

Liu Tie pointed to one location at the head of the wall, and then to another.

"From there?" Tian Ban was a little puzzled, there was nothing on it, Li Yi said on the side: "Yes, the grass on it is flattened." ”

Tian Ban sighed softly, Liu Tie glanced at them, and then jumped over the wall, did not stay in the B Courtyard, and returned directly to the A Courtyard, and then, the three of Tian Ban also followed.

"Second master, I found a clue, I came from the C-shaped courtyard, there were no guests in the C-shaped courtyard last night, and the snitch came in from outside. Tian Ban said.

"Master Tian, I want to ask Master Fu, what did he lose?" Li Yi stepped forward and said, Fu Xian's guards walked into the room when they heard this, and after a while, they came out to let Li Yi in.

Liu Tie's face was expressionless, Tian Hao sighed softly, it seems that Liu Tie didn't do it, he doesn't suspect Tian Ban and them, but Liu Tie is on duty in the second half of the night, and in his experience, the snitch usually does it in the second half of the night, so he naturally suspects Liu Tie, and now Liu Tie's suspicion is ruled out.

Looking at Liu Tie's eyes, Liu Tie was still so wooden, expressionless, I don't know if he noticed it.

"Is the carriage cover ready?"

"It's already set. ”

"Put your luggage in the car. Tian Hao commanded, turned his head to look at the room, and sighed softly, this Fu Xian lost important things, and it is estimated that he will not be able to leave for a while.

Liu Tie's expression was indifferent, but his ears were pricked up, he listened attentively to the conversation in the room, and sure enough, Fu Xian didn't say anything he had lost, only admitted that he had lost a few hundred taels of silver tickets, and he also lost a small porcelain bottle of elixir, which was a pill for the prince.

After Li Yi came out, he learned about the situation last night from Liu Tie and Tian Ban, but naturally he didn't know anything.

"Brother Bowen, if you want to open a point, if you lose the east corner, and you will receive the mulberry elm, the prince will definitely understand. Tian Hao sighed softly, Fu Xian looked discouraged, shook his head slightly, Tian Hao sighed again, and bowed his hand: "Then I will leave." ”

Fu Xian looked up at him, opened his mouth to speak, and finally didn't say anything and lowered his head.
