Chapter 34 The Thief



Xia Daohua touched the man's carotid artery again, and it seemed to be beating faster than before.

Ah, is he about to wake up...

Xia Daohua hurriedly got up, not daring to touch "Qian Chuan Zijun" lying on the ground anymore.

She looked around and saw no one else coming.

He carefully observed the two exits of the alley, hesitated for about half a second, then chose the one where light was coming in and ran hurriedly.

Less than half a cup of tea had passed since Xia Daohua left when the motionless person lying on the ground raised his heavy and dry eyelids.

He opened his eyes.

Those were a pair of cold and ruthless eyes.

He tried to move his hands and feet. Although they were still a little numb, he could move slowly. Although his mind was still a little groggy, he could think.

It seems that the effect of the medicine has worn off a lot.

This drug is really powerful!

There is actually someone in Da Chu who can make this kind of drug. He should not be underestimated!

It was a pity that he was so angry at the time that he killed the little bitch on the spot. Otherwise, he might have already got the recipe for the drug.

With a chaotic stream of thoughts spinning around in his head, he finally realized that something was wrong.

I wasn't caught!

This is not a prison cell!

He was a little excited, gathered up some strength, and dragged his heavy body to his feet.

He observed the surroundings vigilantly and was sure that he had never been to this place before. He didn't know how he got here. Maybe he was chased too hard before and the effect of the drug took effect again, so he panicked and had no choice but to go somewhere else.

However, if you don’t get caught, you win!

Unfortunately, although he escaped from the pursuers, he was separated from several of his companions.

I don't know where they are now, whether they are in danger, or whether they have already died for their country...

He lowered his eyes sadly. After a moment, he suddenly seemed to remember something. He hurriedly reached into his arms and felt around all over.

broken!

Where did all my belongings go? How come I'm only left with this set of clothes? Even my cloak has been stripped off!

This little thief from Beiguan Town is too rampant, isn't he?!

He immediately reached into his arms and touched it, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

The purse and wineskin were gone.

But that's still a small matter.

The most crucial thing was that the oil-paper bag that he had painstakingly obtained after months of dealing with officials from the Great Chu in Xijing, even at the cost of exposing the base of two spies, had disappeared.

The inconspicuous oil-paper package contained the defense map of the Great Chu court in the Jie Ling Mountain area.

Because this thing was so important, he didn't dare let anyone else hold it, and he always kept it close to him. Now that the thing is gone, he can't find anyone to blame!

His identity was exposed on the very night he succeeded.

The people of Da Chu were chasing him closely, especially the old dogs of the Jinyiwei, who had very sharp noses! They chased him all over the place, and he never had time to copy the thing again.

Originally, he thought, since he already had the original, why bother copying it?

However, at this moment, I am regretting it so much!

I never expected that after overcoming all the storms, I would capsize in a small ditch!

There were actually spies from the government army in the Huanhua Tower!

And that little bitch who sang the song, she actually put drugs in his drink while looking so affectionate!

If he hadn't been alert, he would have noticed something was wrong as soon as the drug took effect. He would have killed the bitch with a knife, jumped out the window and escaped, and even set a fire in the process...

At this moment, I am afraid that I have been trapped in a prison!

He couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

He lost the most important thing of this trip, and he doesn't even have a penny left. If this isn't a tiger in plain water, what else could it be?

If the government office in Beiguan Town had acted faster, his portrait would probably have been hung at the city gate by now.

He sighed deeply, but was unwilling to admit defeat.

If I go back in disgrace like this, my royal brother will probably make a fuss about it, reprimanding me for messing up my job and damaging the foundation of the Chu State. He might even take the opportunity to exile me to Ningguta to herd sheep!

No, we absolutely cannot go back like this!

On second thought, no matter who stole my things, they would probably want to exchange them for money.

Well, as long as we arrange enough manpower and wait in places like pawnshops, we will catch this little thief sooner or later!

When the time comes, I will make him wish he were dead but unable to live!

He gritted his teeth and made up his mind to stay in hiding for a long time until he caught the thief who had ruined his plan.

After glancing at both ends of the alley, he chose the side without lights, moved his still numb hands and feet, and staggered into the long dark shadows of the alley.

At this time, Xia Daohua had already reunited with the Xia family.

Everyone was there except the eldest family.

Xia Daohua was the last of the lost children to be found.

As soon as Jiang saw Xia Daohua, tears began to fall from her eyes.

She grabbed Xia Daohua's arm tightly and hit her on the back several times. She cried and cursed while beating her:

"You damn child, how could you be so ignorant? Where have you been? Are you trying to scare me to death..."

As he kept cursing, he began to cry uncontrollably.

Xia Daohua looked at Jiang's true feelings awkwardly, and she herself was somewhat moved.
