Luo nine needles

Chapter 59

The noise outside seemed to last all night, one place gradually quieted down, and another place became lively again, one after another, and it didn't quiet down until dawn.

After daybreak, however, there was a commotion in the street again.

"what happened?"

"It is said that there are thieves, Master Lin's house in Beiqiaotou was stolen."

"No, no, it's Mr. Sun's house on South Street."

"No, the roof of Master Lin's house has been trampled to pieces."

"There's blood all over the ground outside Master Sun's house."

"Blood? Is that a thief or a bandit?"

Talking about it everywhere, the shop assistants in Ruyifang were fascinated by it, hugging the door panel and forgetting to move, until the sound of grunting wheels came, accompanied by a heavy cough, "What are you doing!"

The two store clerks hurriedly turned around and looked at Wei Dong's family who came out from behind the window lattice, rolling his cart.

"Boss, boss, it's said that there are thieves." They said hurriedly.

Wei Dong's family stared: "The thieves don't take good care of the store, so be careful." After saying that, he went in with a cart.

The two shop assistants made faces at each other and continued to work.

After the inspection in the morning, Dong Wei returned to his room, entered the inner room, then entered the secret door, and came to another room.

Here shopkeeper Lu and Chief Meng Xi are sitting and talking.

"Boss, it's been arranged." Shopkeeper Lu said, "Let's take the delivery car today, and Lao Cao at the city gate will make arrangements."

Meng Xichang looked regretful: "It's a pity that the thief escaped."

Wei Dongjia said: "It should be said that you are safe and sound. After all, this time it is the thief who is hunting you."

These words sounded like good words, but they always felt weird, Meng Xichang didn't realize what to say for a moment.

In the end, this mean fault has taken root. Shopkeeper Lu glared at Wei Dong's family, and said to Meng Xichang: "If you keep the green hills, you will have a bright future. Don't be discouraged, Meng Xia."

Meng Xichang smiled heartily: "Of course, it's better if he wants to kill me. I'm willing to use my body as bait to get rid of this harm for the people."

Shopkeeper Lu nodded: "This is our ambition."

Meng Xichang clasped his hands and saluted: "Please help me disguise, I will set off now, so as not to cause trouble."

What did shopkeeper Lu want to say, there was a rapid knocking sound outside one wall, Wei Dong's family shook the cart and pressed the switch, the wall turned slowly, and a person walked in from the other side.

"Master Cao?" Shopkeeper Lu was a little surprised, and then his expression became solemn, "Is there any trouble?"

Cao Dianli panted slightly, obviously coming in a hurry, he didn't bother to answer the shopkeeper Lu, he just looked at Chief Meng Xi: "Meng Xia."

Having said that, I gasped again.

Wei Dongjia said anxiously: "Where can I breathe like this!"

Shopkeeper Lu handed water to Dianli Cao.

Dianli Cao took two sips and took a deep breath: "You old Wei, I'm older than you, what's wrong with taking a few breaths?"

Wei Dongjia stared: "You are quick to quarrel."

Cao Dianji smiled, stopped arguing with him, and looked at Chief Meng Xi and raised his hand in a salute: "Meng Xia is mighty, the thief Shi Feng is dead."

As soon as this statement came out, the three people in the room were stunned.

"I didn't kill him." Meng Xichang said, with a surprised expression, "I only stabbed him once, and he avoided the vital point."

Wei Dong's family and shopkeeper Lu were also surprised. They already knew the details of last night. Chief Meng Xi was almost injured by Shi Feng's poisonous powder.

Unexpectedly, dead?
"When I searched the city last night, I found a dead body in an alley on North Street."

"At first I thought it was people who were killed by thieves, but after asking around in the alley, no one got lost."

"I checked half of the city with the portrait, and a few women recognized it as a flower seller, from the village over Hangu Temple, surnamed Huang."

"The officials rushed over overnight and found that the old man Huang had been murdered for many days. They asked the neighbors around and said that a nephew had come a few days ago, but these people said that the old man Huang had no nephew at all."

Cao Dianli told everyone about the process. Of course, he was reminded in advance that the thief was pretending to be a flower seller. Suddenly, he said that he looked familiar.

Then I dug out (actually, it was prepared long ago) from the warehouse.

All the talents in the government office recognized it, and they were suddenly shocked.

Although he knew about it earlier, Dianli Cao was as shocked as everyone else.

As the murderer, Meng Xichang was also shocked: "But he was really fine at the time, and I did not hurt the vitals." Speaking of which, he looked at the three people in the room, "Could it be that the people on your side did it?"

Although rangers act alone, it doesn't mean that they have to be alone, and they will cooperate when dealing with villains.

Wei Dongjia smiled, and pointed to himself, Shopkeeper Lu and Dianli Cao.

"Us? See who can help you kill the thief who even missed you?" He said, "Oh, there is a girl outside, a little beggar."

Old and young, it is indeed impossible, Meng Xi frowned.

"Meng Xia, don't be modest, and don't doubt anymore." Dianli Cao said with a smile, "That thief was indeed killed by your hand."

He gestured with his hand.

"I saw Wu Zuo's autopsy with my own eyes. The thief only had one sword wound, and it was here."

Meng Xi looked at him and pointed the position: "Yes, I did stab him here, but..."

"But." Cao Dianli took over the words with a smile, "Wu Zuo said that although the wound did not look critical, it was very deep, so the thief thought it was fine, but in fact he was seriously injured. He fell down while running, without a sound. He lost too much blood and died in the alley without interest."

So that's the case, the expressions of the three people in the room are suddenly stunned, that's right.

"Congratulations to Xia Meng, for eliminating harm for the people." Dianli Cao said again.

Chief Meng Xi picked up the tea on the table and poured it on the ground: "The victims can feel at ease."

While talking here, there was another knock on the wall.

Dong Wei went to open the door again, and Qixing walked in.

"Ah Qi, you came just in time." The three people in the room said at the same time.

At the same time, they stared at each other in a daze.

Wei Dongjia snorted: "Let them tell you the good news."

Shopkeeper Lu didn't care about Wei Dong's family's yin and yang, and told the story that Chief Meng Xi had killed the thief, while Dianli Cao added.

Qixing listened carefully, and nodded with a smile.

"Congratulations to Meng Xia for eliminating harm for the people." Shopkeeper Lu said again.

Meng Xichang clasped his hands in thanks: "Thank you for your help."

Seven Star nodded: "You're welcome."

Meng Xichang was slightly taken aback. The youngest child in the room did not expect to say this. Looking at the others, shopkeeper Lu closed his opened mouth. The Wei Dong's family who was riding a wheelbarrow did not intend to speak, and Cao Dianli smiled.

He also thought that when he first came here, it was the girl who spoke first, acting like a family member.

Could it be that he is really the new head of the West Hall?
Meng Xichang looked at the girl, and asked solemnly: "May I ask what the head of the house is called? Meng Xichang will keep it in mind."

The girl said frankly, "Seven Stars."

The thief is dead, but the death of the thief has become an unsolved case, and the government still needs to investigate, so Chief Meng Xi set off immediately according to the arrangement.

Watching the tall and heavy cars loaded with various furniture and goods slowly drive out of Ruyifang, shopkeeper Lu, who was standing at the door to see them off, glanced at Dong Wei's house.

"Are we changing the head of the family now?" He whispered, "Boss, are you letting Xian go?"

Earlier, in front of Chief Meng Xi, Qi Xing also acted as if he was in charge, but they did not correct or stop her.

Shopkeeper Lu thought it was a little funny.

Wei Dongjia glanced at him: "What's so good? I'm waiting for a promotion."

As I said before, Qi Xing became the head of the sect, and if he wanted to be an elder, the hall master would not even look down on him.

Shopkeeper Lu couldn't help laughing anymore.

The passers-by who passed by saw it, and their faces were full of envy, "Ruyifang has done a big business again, and the shopkeeper is so happy, he smiled so much that his teeth are bared."
