Chapter 72 Take Down
Xiao Fang watched Xiao Shitou running away, dropped the broken porcelain pieces in his hand, straightened his slightly bent back, and strode towards the study.
As soon as he pushed open the door of the study, a cold light entered his eyes, which made him close his eyes, but his body nimbly dodged the cold light.
The cold light was emitted by the sword in Xiao Jinyi's hand. The two of them got up in the morning and had breakfast, then came to the study and lay in ambush silently. Xiao Shitou was also arranged by them in advance.
Chen Shixu told Xiao Shitou that if someone used an excuse to transfer Xiao Shitou away, Xiao Shitou should keep silent and leave according to that person's wishes.
That's why Xiao Shitou left so easily just now, otherwise he would definitely wear the dirty clothes, feeling sorry for his dirty clothes while doing his duty.
Shen Shixu watched as the man dodged Xiao Jinyi's Red Blood Sword with a few taps of his feet, and knew that he was a powerful fellow.
He didn't dare to go out and disturb them, so he hid in the study room and stood in front of the window watching Xiao Jinyi and the man fight.
Xiao Jinyi's sword was extremely sharp, and his sword moves were fierce, each one aimed at the vital points. If you get slashed by such a sword, you will bleed three feet long.
The little thief who was fighting with Xiao Jinyi was also quite strong. He was very agile and always dodged when the sword was about to hit him. But the strange thing was that this guy didn't fight back and just kept dodging.
Shen Shixu was a little confused about this man's thoughts. If he didn't want to be their enemy, why did he come to his house to steal things and even left a provocative note.
As for being their enemy, he just kept dodging when Xiao Jinyi attacked him. If it was said that he had no weapon, that was not necessarily the case, because he was clearly holding a soft sword in his hand.
It's not that Xiao Jinyi couldn't defeat this man, he just wanted to test him. After fighting a few times, he realized that this man's martial arts skills were not very high, and Shen Shixu, who had no internal strength, could knock him down.
The key is that this person is very agile, like a loach in water, and cannot be easily caught.
His footwork skills are quite good. If he fails to take it down this time, and lets him find the right opportunity to use his lightness skills to escape, Xiao Jinyi won't be sure he can catch up with him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jinyi's sword moves became faster. The man was already in a very awkward position when dealing with Xiao Jinyi's sword moves. Every time he was about to be scratched, he narrowly avoided it.
Now the sword moves suddenly accelerated, and the sword moves that he could have avoided with great risk before could no longer be avoided, and soon he had five or six wounds on his body.
Then you quickly stepped back, stretched out your hand to stop Xiao Jinyi and said, "Brother, I know I was wrong, can we stop fighting?"
Xiao Jinyi did not listen to him. Although he put away the sword, he kicked the man's knee, grabbed his wrist with one hand, and pressed his shoulder with the other hand to push him to the ground.
The man did not dare to resist and was pressed down obediently. Shen Shixu saw that the man had been captured, but he did not rush out.
He shouted to Xiao Jinyi, "Your Highness, can I come out now?"
Unable to get a positive answer from Xiao Jinyi, Shen Shixu ran out of the study. In his previous life, he was used to seeing those protagonists on TV who ran out to help on their own initiative, but were captured by the enemy, putting everyone in danger.
In order not to repeat the protagonist's mistake and let the little thief find an opportunity to run away, Shen Shixu asked.
Shen Shixu ran out and saw clearly who this little thief was, "Xiao Fang? How could it be you? No, you are not Xiao Fang!"
Shen Shixu was surprised to see that the thief was brought back by Xiao Shitou, but later he discovered that although this person looked the same as Xiao Fang, there were still some differences.
Xiao Fang has poor eyesight and cannot see things clearly. Because of this, he was abandoned by his parents and became a beggar. Therefore, Xiao Fang always squints when looking at things, which makes his eyes look dull and stupid.
But this Xiao Fang's eyes were big and bright. Even when Xiao Jinyi held a sword to his neck, there was no trace of gloom in his eyes. Instead, he was smiling. No matter how you looked at him, he was not Xiao Fang.
The thief's identity was exposed, and he looked at Shen Shixu in surprise, "Hey, how did you find out that I'm not Xiao Fang? I've been lurking in your house for three or four days, and no one noticed anything wrong. How did you find out that I'm not Xiao Fang just by meeting me?"
After his identity was exposed, the little thief stopped pretending. What he was more curious about now was how Shen Shixu knew his identity?
"Your appearance, height, and body shape are very similar to Xiao Fang, but there is one thing you haven't disguised well.
Xiaofang has poor eyesight and always likes to squint, with a dull and lifeless look in his eyes. But you are different. Your eyes are big, bright, and full of energy. You don’t look like a person with eye disease at all. ”
When Jiang Miaokong heard him praising her beautiful eyes, she smiled and said, "Thank you for praising my beautiful eyes, and you are so awesome! I used to think the guy I was fighting with was awesome, but now I think you are even better than him.
I have seen many people with great martial arts skills, but you are the first one with such a powerful brain. ”
Shen Shixu felt that this Mr. Cao Shangfei really had no awareness of being a prisoner. "Mr. Cao Shangfei, although I appreciate your compliments, should you tell me why you stole my things?"
When Jiang Miaokong heard this name, he curled his lips in disdain and said, "My name is Jiang Miaokong, Jiang as in big rivers and lakes, Miaokong as in empty hands, not Flying on the Grass, that's something I just wrote for fun.
As for why I stole your things? It was just that one night when I was climbing walls and rooftops, I saw the night pearl in your room and asked other people about it.
Knowing that you are the Shaoqing of Dali Temple at such a young age, I misunderstood that you are a bad guy who became an official through a shortcut, so I wanted to teach you a lesson.
But now I know that you are really smart to be the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. ”
Shen Shixu didn't expect that he was the reason for attracting thieves. It seemed that he would have to hide the important things in the study in the future. He had to keep the night pearl because he still had to teach An Chengyu to study at night, so the night pearl was indispensable.
After Jiang Miaokong finished explaining the reason for stealing, his originally playful expression turned serious, "You are so smart and you are the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple. Can you help me investigate an unjust case?"
Hearing this, Xiao Jinyi took back the sword on his neck. When Shen Shixu heard that there was an injustice, he didn't care about his stealing and asked, "What kind of injustice is it? Tell me what you know. If it is true, I will definitely clear your name."
"This is a huge injustice. All 164 members of the Qucheng family were killed overnight, but the murderer turned out to be the eldest son of the family."
