Chapter 163: The Snipe and the Clam Fight



No one knows how good the old thief king's Qinggong is.

However, he can always steal what he wants to steal.

Therefore, even in the inn where many masters gather, there is a little worry when the name of the old thief king is mentioned.

And everyone is most worried about only one thing.

What method will this old thief king choose to take action?

...

"According to intelligence, the old thief king always likes to plan carefully before taking action."

An Huo Shaxi said.

"Once, in order to steal something, he ambushed in someone's sect for two years and finally succeeded." Feng Xiruo added.

The old thief king has a personality similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder. He likes to plan carefully before taking action.

"He must have planned it very carefully before he would take action." Li Qi said, "I've seen that guy's style before."

A terrible and precise plan.

A cautious and careful character.

All of this has made the old thief king famous for never failing.

"So... I'm afraid that meeting is the key." Feng Xiruo said at last.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"So, according to the old thief king's special preference for meticulousness..."

"--That meeting should be a meeting to study how to steal the secret book."

A strict plan often requires careful preparation.

And for someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder like the old thief king, he would not give up unless he carefully studied the plan.

Originally, no one in the inn should know about this plan, but now it's different.

Because they have the hope of the whole village.

- Chu Changzui.

Only by finding out what was discussed at the conference can they adapt to the situation.

Therefore, the spy number one Chu Changzui, who was responsible for finding out what was discussed at the conference, was naturally given high hopes.

The next day, before Chu Changzui left, he felt that he was almost crushed by everyone's expectations.

"It's okay, don't worry." Li Qi said.

"Yes, the inn is a little quieter without you." Feng Wuhen next to him also added fuel to the fire.

"I shouldn't be that annoying, right?" When Chu Changzui was complaining, he suddenly saw An Huoshaxi dragging in a child.

He took a closer look and found that the person An Huoshaxi brought in was Xiaohua who always played with Chu Changzui at the door of the inn.

"Hiss." Chu Changzui suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, "Why did you bring her here?"

"Let her wear your clothes and stand in front of the counter for a day, then no one should be able to see that something is wrong."

"..."

Chu Changzui's words of "this is too much" were blocked in his mouth before he could even utter them, and then he was kicked into the car.

Li Qi prepared breakfast and waited for the shopkeeper to come downstairs with a little worry. After waiting for a full hour, he saw the shopkeeper wearing a black suit and a big hat and went out.

"Shopkeeper, why are you dressed like this?" Li Qi was really shocked when he saw it.

The shopkeeper came over stealthily wearing the hat and asked, "Will I be recognized like this?"

"Probably... not." Li Qi said, "But don't you feel tired wearing this?"

"That's good, as long as no one recognizes me." The shopkeeper's voice seemed to relax suddenly.

As he said that, the shopkeeper slowly left the inn under the eyes of the inn's group of people.

For the first time, she set out on the road to Hangzhou alone...

"It's okay, don't worry, it's just a speech." Her friend comforted her in the Bluetooth headset, "Aren't you fully prepared?"

"Well, that's right."

"In this world, there will be rewards for every effort, and this is true for everything." Feng Qing's friend is a particularly cheerful person.

Although she often hangs out with Feng Qing, even Feng Qing herself has to admit that her friend is much more optimistic and cheerful than she is.

"Okay." Feng Qing sighed.

"I have to say that it is your encouragement that gave me some courage, otherwise I really can't take this step."

"Thank you."

Feng Qing suddenly said.

"Thank you..." Feng Qing's friend didn't expect Feng Qing to suddenly become so sensible, and she felt a little embarrassed.

After all, in her heart, Feng Qing has always been the kind of person who does things in a disorderly manner and seems to have no brains. As a friend, she has always treated Feng Qing with the same patience as treating a baby.

"Okay, then let me see which way to go." Feng Qing opened his mobile phone and took a look.

Although Feng Qing had separated from the main force, she was not in a hurry to catch up with the main force.

After all...

Feng Qing glanced at Chu Xiaobai's location on her phone.

"Master, go left in front and then turn straight."

Many voices around reached Feng Qing's ears.

As expected of Yangzhou City, it looks really lively.

...

"This is really... strange." Chu Changzui sat in the carriage, feeling a little uneasy.

He was now standing on a pair of very tall stilts, which would make his figure not appear too abrupt compared to others.

At this moment, Chu Changzui had separated from the owner of the tavern and sat on the carriage specially used to pick them up.

However...

"Why does it look like we are entering the core area of ​​Yangzhou City?" Chu Changzui pondered in his heart.

Wasn't it agreed to be in the suburbs of Yangzhou City? Why did we suddenly come to such a place?

This is a little different from what was agreed before.

When he was thinking about it, he suddenly found that the carriage stopped.

People around him began to get off.

Chu Changzui hesitated for a while, got off the car, and then followed the crowd into Yangzhou City.

If this place was just the core area of ​​Yangzhou City, it would be fine. The most important thing is that this place is very close to the government of Yangzhou City.

A gathering of a group of people from the martial arts world is so close to the government... Chu Changzui figured out that something was a little wrong.

And just as he thought, many old martial artists present also realized that something was a little wrong.

So as soon as they got off the car, everyone began to inquire about the news everywhere.

"Brother Zhou, do you see anything wrong?" A knight who had come here in the same carriage with Chu Changzui asked.

"It is indeed a little wrong. Could this gathering be organized by the government?" Another person also wondered.

Before coming here, the martial artists present only heard that this was a meeting to discuss how to deal with Ji Yihan.

However, everyone knew in their hearts that the so-called dealing with Ji Yihan was actually to deal with the shopkeeper behind Ji Yihan.

The shopkeeper of the Nameless Inn has made many enemies since he appeared in the martial arts world. This is because the shopkeeper has always taken in all his guests, regardless of their identities or the terrible pursuers behind them. However,

doing so will eventually cause a lot of trouble.

People in the martial arts world always know that they must avoid trouble, but the shopkeeper does the opposite, making it difficult to understand her purpose and means.

However, such things have always been discussed privately by the people in the martial arts world, and no one from the court has ever been involved.

"This matter is indeed a bit strange." Chu Changzui pondered secretly.

He knew that one of the purposes of this conference was to steal the secret book from their Nameless Inn, and he never thought that this matter would have anything to do with the court.

"Would you like to have a fortune-teller?"

Chu Changzui originally thought that he would just come here to get some information, but the current situation was a little wrong.

He pinched two fingers in his sleeves and counted, closed his eyes for a long time, and suddenly opened his eyes, and then his face changed slightly.

Before Chu Changzui put his hands down, he suddenly heard a voice that seemed to come from the sky, and it was clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone present.

Just by listening to this voice, you can feel that the speaker's internal strength is very strong.

"Thank you all for coming here today. I believe everyone's purpose is the same."

"So I won't beat around the bush."

​​Before the voice fell, a group of people suddenly appeared here and surrounded them.

"Wait, what does this mean?" The faces of many people in the martial arts world present changed slightly.

This hexagram is the hexagram of a snipe and a clam fighting.

Who is the snipe and who is the clam?

Chu Changzui was unsure. He was not very good at fighting, not to mention that his body had shrunk to the size of a child, so he could only hide in the crowd and watch the situation.

"Today is a good day." The voice said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I don't want to do anything to you. I believe you all know the purpose of your visit this time, and I don't want you to change your purpose."

"What do you mean by that?" Immediately, the impatient man stood up.

"You have already arrested all of us, and you still say you don't want to do anything to us?"

"Don't worry, didn't everyone come here today to see the shopkeeper make a fool of himself?" The voice said with a smile.

"So do I, but I also want to borrow your people."

As soon as the words fell, a man walked out from the back.

A long folding fan, a pair of peach blossom eyes.

The man was wearing the clothes of a court official, but he had an inner strength that was no less than anyone present.

"So you sent me here just for this matter?" General Shi He covered his mouth with his folding fan.

He smiled and asked his subordinates next to him, "A secret book that can make a person's martial arts improve overnight, tell me, who can not be tempted?"

"General, what are you doing..."

The people next to him also lowered their heads, trembling and not daring to speak.

"The shopkeeper should be eager to rush over after hearing the news, right?" General Shi He said in a low voice.

Few people know that this General Shi He is also a martial arts expert. If he had not entered the official career, he would have made a name for himself in the martial arts world.

His character is a little wild and unruly among officials, but no one has ever dared to touch his flaws.

"I also hope to see the shopkeeper make a fool of herself. She has also been in the limelight in the martial arts world." General Shi He said with a smile.

"That's right, that's right." The people around him nodded repeatedly.

"She is just a martial arts person, but she actually wants to control the entire martial arts world. It's really ridiculous."

The people around him didn't even dare to breathe when listening to General Shi He's words.

"Besides, she should never, ever have such a secret book in her hand." General Shi He's voice suddenly became a little cold.

"A secret book that can turn a person into a master overnight, do you know what this means?"

"No, I don't know..."

"If such a secret book is in my hands... no, in the hands of the court, then what do you think will happen to the world?"

"Tell me, if I give that secret book to my uncle, will he be happier?" General Shi He turned his head to look at his subordinates.

His subordinates were already trembling with fear at his words, kneeling on the ground, not even daring to raise their heads.

"How could such a secret book fall into the hands of the people of Jianghu?" General Shi He looked at the people below and sneered with disdain.

"Letting them act as bait to lure the shopkeeper here is a good deal for them."

"Yes, you are right."

Chu Changzui was thinking hard about what was going on in his mind.

He thought it was a meeting for the people in the underworld to discuss how to deal with the shopkeeper, but it turned out to be a meeting secretly manipulated by the people in the court.

There is definitely something wrong with this situation.

Moreover, that person mentioned bait...

Wait, could it be...

could it be that this meeting was a trap set by this person?

Chu Changzui suddenly shuddered.

He was shocked to think that this General Shi He could see into people's hearts so clearly!

——With the personality of the shopkeeper, if she heard that there was a conspiracy here to deal with her, she would not be able to resist and would definitely come in person.

And as for the old thief king who was said to come to the inn to steal the secret book, everyone in the inn has been worried about when he would come, and the guesses were crazy.

Now it seems that they are out of touch with the lights.

Chu Changzui and the others had always thought that this meeting would study how to steal the secret book, because everyone felt that with the personality of the old thief king, he would definitely plan very carefully before taking action.

And what if, this General Shi He just happened to catch everyone's thoughts and deliberately did the opposite?

How come this conference was not held to discuss how to steal the secret book, but was created to give the old thief king an "opportunity" to steal the secret book...

The creation of this opportunity seems incredible, because generally speaking, the old thief king would never take such a bold action.

But if he succeeds.

——Then at this moment, the shopkeeper has been deceived into Yangzhou City because of this conference.

Therefore, there is no one in the inn now.

If the old thief king does not take action now, when will he take action?

...

"Hey, are those people around selling candied haws?" A person's voice came out from a small sedan chair in Yangzhou City.

"You still want to eat Tanghulu." However, in the small sedan that can only seat one person, another person's voice came out at this moment, "It seems that your mental quality is really good. Even now, you haven't forgotten to eat."
