Chapter 24 Catch the thief
She quickly came to the window, carefully opened the window a crack, and looked outside through the gap.
The moon was very bright tonight, and by the moonlight, she saw two people moving things out from the lobby, and they were not afraid of waking them up at all, throwing all the things out on the ground heavily.
After throwing it on the ground, they continued to enter the lobby, put down their things, and moved to the lobby again.
One person said: "It's really unlucky. I thought there should be a lot of things when hundreds of people came, but I didn't expect that each person only had a few catties of rice, and the most was only a few tens of catties. The money is not much. Personally, there is at most one or two taels of silver."
Another person said: "Okay, the sum is enough for us to live for a while, and maybe we haven't found a rich family yet, so stop complaining and work quickly."
Nangong Anshan instantly understood why Boy Tai Le wanted to prevent her from proposing to come here during the day. It turns out that this place is a den of thieves.
If she proposes to come here, if these villagers lose something, they will definitely regard her as an enemy.
When the time comes, being kicked out of the team is a minor matter, but endangering one's life is a major matter.
Nangong Anshan was about to go out and subdue the two of them, but thinking that she would go out so rashly, the villagers would lose their belongings again, and the two of them would probably bite back.
After thinking for a while, she told Boy Tai Le about her plan.
Tai Le boy said: "This method is feasible."
Nangong Anshan immediately woke up the family members, and after telling them what happened, she asked them to stay in the house until they found the right time to go out.
She went next door to wake up Cao's mother and daughter and Yu's mother and son.
She quietly came to hide near the lobby, and saw the two people go in to move things again, but when she saw a girl, she stopped suddenly.
"This girl is nice, how about..."
"Are you mentally ill? What's the most important thing now? You forgot what happened last time when you couldn't control your lower body? We almost died that time, and you don't have a long memory?"
The man had to give up, but he still wanted to touch the girl.
Dead pervert!
Nangong Anshan suddenly shouted loudly: "The thief is caught, everyone, get up! The thief is caught, everyone, get up and catch the thief."
Tai Le boy said: "Help the villagers avoid danger, add one merit value, add one drop of holy spirit water, the total merit value is nine."
Everyone sleeping in the lobby woke up at the same time.
"Thief? Who is the thief?"
"Where's the thief?"
…
Nangong Anshan pointed at the two standing people, and said loudly: "That's them, they have moved some food out."
All eyes were on those two people.
Some people also began to check the food around them.
"My food is gone."
"Mine is gone too."
"My God, how can I live without food!"
…
Zhou Lizheng lived in the next room. Hearing the movement here, he hurriedly brought his son out and came to the two people.
People from other rooms also came over one after another.
Those two people saw that their good deeds were ruined, but they were not afraid at all.
Seeing that someone wanted to arrest him, Thief A proudly said: "Don't touch me, all of you have been poisoned by us, if you dare to hurt us, then we will kill you!"
Nangong Anshan frowned, no wonder these people were so loud just now, they were not afraid of being discovered at all, so they had something to rely on.
I don’t know if it’s true or if it’s a bluff, but judging from the current situation, it’s most likely the latter.
Boy Tai Le suddenly said, "You guessed it right."
Everyone present panicked. Are they all poisoned?
Zhou Lizheng frowned and said, "When did you poison us? How did you poison us?"
Thief A said: "Hmph, I won't tell you. If you are sensible now, you can take the initiative to hand over the food and money, otherwise I won't give you the antidote, and you will just wait for the poison to die."
Thief B said: "Obsessively take all the food to the yard, and give us all the money you have on your body. If you are slow, don't blame us for being ruthless."
Qiu said angrily: "You are really too vicious."
Thief A snorted: "Vicious? We just want to live, what's wrong with us? We haven't killed you now, I can promise you, as long as you are obedient, I will give you the antidote, otherwise... hum , think about it for yourself."
Qiu suddenly became angry, and looked at Zhou Lizheng again: "Lizheng, make up an idea, if we run out of food and money, we will die in the fiefdom of King Li."
Wu Dayong said: "But if we don't give them food, we won't be able to go to Li Wang's fief."
"No, if we give it to them, we can still find food on the road, and maybe we still have a chance to survive."
"But people like them, will they really give us the antidote if we give them food? What if they lied to us?"
…
Those who heard it fell silent.
Nangong Anshan thought of the packets of medicinal powder that he had confiscated from the man in black that day, and asked, "Boy Tai Le, what kind of medicinal powder were the packets of medicinal powder that I confiscated that day?"
Tai Le boy said: "The black package is poison, and the white package is antidote. The poison will be harmless when it meets the air with a cup of tea... and... also..."
After hearing Boy Tai Le's words, Nangong Anshan laughed immediately.
Thief A said: "I don't have that much time to talk nonsense with you, hurry up and do as we say."
Qiu suddenly looked at Nangong Anshan, and said sinisterly: "We don't have much money. The one who has money is that **** girl. She got ten taels of silver at once last time."
The two thieves turned their attention to Nangong Anshan at the same time.
"Ten taels of silver? Hand over the money."
"Brothers are in a better mood, maybe they will spare you."
Excuse me! It was a good thing that this dead girl spoiled them just now!
When the money is in hand, they will be the first to take the dead girl.
Zhou Lizheng said angrily: "Mr. Qiu, you clearly know that Ah Shan spent five taels of silver just to enter the city last time, and bought a lot of food. How can she have ten taels of silver in her hand now? You are her Dear grandma, how can you be so vicious?"
Qiu said: "I don't care how she uses it, I only know that she has ten taels of silver."
"you!"
Seeing that Nangong Anshan didn't move, Thief A frowned and said, "Hurry up and give me the money, or I'll search for it myself. If your reputation is ruined, don't cry then."
Nangong Anshan sighed, and said: "Oh, well, I do have some money with me. In order to save my life, I have to give it to you. Wait, I'll take it for you."
