its 187: Strange things in the county office

None of the more than a hundred mountain thieves ran out of the cottage.

Not to mention that more than 100 have become mountain thieves who have no combat effectiveness. Even if there are more than 100 neatly equipped soldiers under the command of the general division, under the attack of 600 ghost soldiers, it is impossible for one to run out of this cottage.

Looking at the corpses on the ground and the sun that had sund into the West Mountain, Cheng Xingxing sighed under the sunset glow: "Huangsha wears golden armor. Brother, how many times have you killed someone? I don't feel anything... alas..."

Looking at the cottage dyed red by the sunset, Cheng Xing once had the idea of looking for treasure from house to house, and then denied it. Since this is the altar of Doujunmen, there can't be any treasures that the generals can use. And those things like gold and silver are not interested in becoming stars.

With the light of the sunset, he became a star and went down the mountain. At the foot of the mountain, he saw the two-meter-long knife thrown by the roadside and hurriedly ran over and picked it up happily. It seems that Di Rong didn't see the knife in his eyes. He felt that he was going to be a star anyway, so he just threw it away. Thanks to this, otherwise if you really lose it, you will definitely feel distressed if you become a star.

Although it is not a treasure knife, it can be given to him by a single tree. It is also a gift, and it is the first serious gift that the two have met so far.

It's just that without a horse, you can only rely on your own two legs to travel, which makes it really painful for a star. However, after all, the sophomore boy in high school was not a fool. At that time, he got a few ghost soldiers out, cut off a few thick branches from nearby trees, and made a simple sedan chair carried by two people. He lay up and ran all the way by the two ghost soldiers, but it was not much slower than riding a horse.

It's just that it's troublesome to change the ghost soldier every ten minutes, but Cheng Xing dares not dare to make such trouble, because it's too late to change it. It's inevitable that people and sedan chairs fall to the ground together.

In the dim sunshine in the evening, the sophomore boy sat on the sedan chair, covered his injured wrist with his eyes closed, hummed all the way, and returned to the outside of Zhangjia County from the mountains.

When he arrived at the city, it was completely dark. At this time, the gate had been completely closed. The star jumped out of the sedan chair, collected the ghost soldiers, found an unguarded wall, combined the power of the ghost soldiers in his body, jumped up, and easily entered the city. At this time, most places in the city were already dark, and only two streets were still brightly lit. Needless to say, it was a place of fireworks.

As long as the lights are still on in such a place, there is no need to be afraid that there will be a curfew, so Chengxing walked without panic, and he was not worried about bumping into street patrols or something at all.

Not long after arriving at the county office, Cheng Mingxing found a remote wall shrouded in darkness, easily jumped in, and touched it in according to the memory of the layout of the surrounding buildings when he came during the day.

There is no dark guard in the town office. There are only five catchers forming a team and patrolling with charcoal lanterns casually, but this kind of patrol is better than walking and chatting. In such an official place, no one will worry about thieves or robbers sneaking in.

So soon, he calmly found a house with lights on as if he were in the park. He stood close to the window and listened carefully, but he couldn't hear any sound. He couldn't help sighing secretly. Although there was only a layer of oily waterproof paper on the windows of Yunsu mainland, the sound insulation function was not bad at all.

Like in a martial arts novel, it is absolutely impossible to open this layer of thick paper with a little saliva. Since it is called waterproof paper, of course, it will not be wet by water, and its thickness is similar to that of cowhide. Unless you use a knife, it will not be broken at all. Cheng Xingxing cautiously pulled out his knife, stabbed a piece of paper in the corner of the window into a triangular hole, and looked inside.

In the room, Wen Jing was walking back and forth anxiously, stopping from time to time, shaking his head and sighing, and didn't know why.

Cheng Xing thought to himself: Wenjing should be regarded as not involved in this matter. Otherwise, he can only say that he has super first-class acting skills. Whether it is what he said or the details of his actions, there is no flaw. Instead, it is Di Rong. Thinking carefully, at that time, he was "not in a hurry", that is, the boss's flaw.

Whose son was abduction by a mountain thief? Generally speaking, as soon as the star Cheng arrived, he should be in a hurry to take the star to the copycat. What to eat, and to persuade the wine during the dinner, it's obviously not right.

Brother is still tender! Cheng Xing sighed. In the future, you have to be more careful and use your brain when you encounter anything. It's too outrageous to be fooled like today.

Well, but then again, I'm not a fairy. Who doesn't have to be a few times in a normal person's life? It's nothing.

With a smile, the sophomore boy in high school gave himself a reassurance and immediately forgot the loss he had suffered.

While thinking about how to find out whether Wenjing was involved and how to deal with Di Rong, a sound of footsteps sounded, and Cheng Xingxing hurriedly hid in the shadows.

A man dressed as a servant came to the door of Wenjing with a charcoal lantern. After knocking on the door, he saluted Wenjing: "Lord Wen, Lord Di, please."

"I know." Wen Xiang nodded, stepped out of the room, and walked out with the servant. Cheng Xingxing was not polite. With the cover of the night, he followed all the way to a garden.

In the middle of the garden, there is a pavilion. At this time, there are more than a dozen catchers standing around the pavilion. They are all people in Zhangjia County, and there is no catcher brought by Wenjing. A large charcoal lamp was placed on the stone table in the pavilion, which made the surroundings bright. Di Rong sat in it and saw Wen Jing coming from afar. He hurriedly stood up and waved his hand.

Wenjing strode over, and Cheng Xingxing looked around, hid behind a row of small flower walls on the left, and quietly moved along the flower wall to the pavilion. Finally, he actually went directly around four or five meters behind the pavilion. Because it was behind, there was not even a guard here, which was really convenient. .

"Lord Wen, have a cup of tea." Di Rong pulled Wenjing and sat down with a smile on his face.

"I'm not in the mood." Wen Jing shook his head and said, "No news yet?"

"I have sent someone over." Di Rong said, "But don't worry, the guy who became a star should have been cleaned up by the martial artists of Doujunmen."

Ah? Did I see the wrong person? Cheng Xingxing's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't expect that Wenjing was also involved in this matter.

"I can't believe it." Wen Jing sighed, "How can such a young hero and promising person be the boss behind the scenes of the mountain thief?"

"I can't believe it either." Di Rong also sighed, "But the facts are in front of us. If the heroes of Doujunmen hadn't arrived, my life and my son would have been handed over to him. This is called knowing people's faces and not knowing their hearts. You don't have to blame yourself too much.

I went there, so that's it. Cheng Xingxing sighed and felt a little gratified at the same time. He felt that his judgment was reasonable and he didn't see the wrong person.

"But... this fact doesn't make sense." Wen Jing shook his head and said, "I can't figure out why he promised me to come here to help eliminate the mountain thieves if he was the boss behind the scenes of the mountain thieves? As long as he finds an excuse not to come, no one can do anything about it.

"I guess..." Di Rong thought for a long time before explaining, "I guess I'm afraid that I'll be in a hurry. Go to the house to transfer troops."

"But don't they have your son in their hands?" Wen Jing asked.

"This..." Di Rong couldn't explain it, so he could only smile awkwardly: "How can we figure out the ideas of these thieves?"

"In terms of time, they should have finished this battle." Wen Jing looked at the moon that had just risen. "The martial artist of Doujunmen should have arrived in the city. What's wrong..."

"Yes." Di Rong also became anxious and couldn't help looking up at the sky.

What the hell did this guy have? I'm puzzled for a long time to become a star.

Cheating Wenjing into saying that he had an affair with a mountain thief, which was obviously a damn label for himself. At that time, even if the princess asked, it would be useless. She could only watch him be named a thief after his death. But why did you bring Wenjing here in the middle of the night to talk about this? I can't figure it out if I become a star.

"Why haven't you come yet?" Di Rong couldn't sit still and stood up and paced back and forth. Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he stood still and waved his hand: "Go, invite Lord Wen over, drink tea and enjoy the moon together, and wait for the news."

"Yes." A catcher answered quickly and immediately went away.

"What are you asking them to do?" Wen Jing shook his head.

Di Rong smiled twice and didn't say anything.

At first, people who didn't call Wen Jing were called to come, and Di Rong seemed to have made some decision just now... What's going on? Cheng Xingxing's heart became more and more confused.

After a long time, in the silence of the dark night, a strange bird call suddenly came, which sounded quite far away. After a minute or so, the bird's call sounded again, and this time it was a little closer.

"Lord Wen, we have known each other for five or six years, right?" Di Rong suddenly sat down and his tone became heavy.

"Yes." Wen Jing nodded casually.

"To be fair, the relationship between us is the best among these city guards in Aiqu Mansion. I don't know how you are, but I regard you as a friend." Di Rong was quite emotional.

"Lao Di, I haven't treated you as an outsider."

"Yes, otherwise, you wouldn't have promised to help me become a star to suppress bandits this time." Di Rong sighed, "You treat me as a friend, I know. Although you usually compete with me for benefits in the head of the house, it is the same in the officialdom. I don't blame you at all. If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for being stupid.

"What's wrong with you?" Wen Jing frowned.

"Lao Wen, you are not a good person, because you have done a lot of bad things in order to get promoted and get rich. But you are not a bad person, because it's a big deal. You have never missed it. At this point, you are better than me. Di Rong looked at Wenjing with sincere eyes.

What does this confession mean? Cheng Xingxing doesn't understand what this guy is going to do.
