Five days have passed in the blink of an eye, and only half of the ten-day period originally agreed upon is left.
Lu Hanjiang listened to books every day, and the days passed like this. But after listening to it for five days in a row, no matter how interesting the story of the Thieving Saint was, he couldn't help but feel a little tired of it.
There is no news from Ying Wushang, but he estimates that it is 80% safe. Only Liu has the right hand. Lu Hanjiang can only say that luck is also a kind of strength, and old Liu Yundao is really not good enough.
The "Saint Thief" was right next to them. Based on the frequency and direction of her movements, even Lu Hanjiang could roughly estimate where the woman was. Unfortunately, Lao Liu couldn't see her.
It can't be said that he can't see it, but he simply doesn't believe that the little flying thief who can't even do Qinggong is the famous Thief Saint in the rumors.
In fact, Lu Hanjiang didn't want to believe it at first, but after eliminating all other options, only this last one was left. No matter how unwilling he was to believe it, there was no one else to choose from.
Lao Liu doesn't believe in this evil, so he is still looking for clues.
Not only that, Lao Liu also scolded the Jiangnan policemen from head to toe. He couldn't even catch a snitch, which was really embarrassing.
As everyone knows, if he is willing to do a good deed and catch a thief, this trip to the south of the Yangtze River may have ended long ago, and he can be promoted to an official. So, this person has to mind his own business sometimes.
.
I also can't figure out why this little girl became the Major of Huashan, a "sacred thief" who is also a good thief, looks like a giant, and plays the role of three hundred agents while talking and laughing.
Lu Hanjiang has also secretly noticed in the past few days that the little girl's skills are indeed ordinary, and she is not pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.
Whose girl is this? No matter how good she is, let her out to cause trouble everywhere.
Alarm clock thoughts were flying wildly, Lu Hanjiang packed his clothes, and the waiter happened to come in to pack the food. In this line of work, the most important thing is to be considerate.
If you want to talk about eating, drinking and having fun, he can tell you about the scenic spots, specialties and snacks here. If you want to talk about serious things, he can even tell you a few words about the current situation. In short, he has a wink.
After getting along with each other for a few days, the child came to know that Lu Hanjiang was an approachable person, so he nodded and bowed, and bravely said hello: "Hey, sir, why don't you go to North Street to listen to a book today?"
"If I don't go today, I can't live here like I'm in Beijing every day. Man, what else is there to do in this city?"
"What a coincidence, sir, there is really a lot of excitement here today," said the child, deliberately lowering his voice, and said mysteriously: "Young Master Huashan, who came to us with nothing to do a few days ago, do you still remember?
?”
"...Of course I remember." Okay, now I don't even mention the Thief Saint, just Young Master Huashan, right?
"I heard that the Huashan Sect found out about this. Oh my god, I'm so angry. They bluntly said that they wanted to kill their relatives out of justice, and sent a top disciple to come and take the Huashan Master back."
"Is this happening?" Lu Hanjiang pretended to be surprised on his face, but he was calm in his heart. The people in Huashan are just weak, but they are not all dead. Someone in Jiangnan is so blatantly using their name to do something. If they don't do something,
What, we might as well break up as early as possible.
The waiter nodded vigorously: "Listen to everyone, the Huashan disciples are very fast, and they may arrive today."
Lu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows and said casually: "Nancheng is not a small place. Who knows where they are fighting? Is this what you call lively?"
"How can it be possible? My guest doesn't know yet. Mr. Gong of West Street has booked the entire Fulu Building, leaving a place for everyone to watch the fun." The waiter was laughing and joking, obviously very concerned about such a thing.
interested.
"Master Gong?" Lu Hanjiang was very unfamiliar with this name.
"My guest is not from Jiangnan, so I don't know. Mr. Gong's family is engaged in weaving business, which is considered a big business in Jiangnan. No, it is also patronized by Mr. Huashan."
The waiter quietly came to Lu Hanjiang's ear and said cautiously: "I heard that not only Master Gong's books, but also the concubine he just took were also taken by the young master..."
Before he finished speaking, the waiter blinked at Lu Hanjiang and gave him a look that every man could understand.
Lu Hanjiang understood. No wonder Mr. Gong was so angry. He booked the place for everyone to watch the Thief's joke. It was a pity. If someone was really caught, it would be a joke. After all, she was a female thief.
I never thought that this would be such a lively event, the Hongmen Banquet.
So, Lu Hanjiang went to support him. Since he had help from a local snake, he might have a chance. Of course, it also depends on whether the fake young master will give him face.
Since the morning, Fulu Tower has started to hold open-flow banquets. As long as you want to watch the excitement, you can come and have a meal. Even the stalls and inns next to Fulu Tower are full of people.
Looking forward to watching the show.
Lu Hanjiang arrived a little late. The seats on the second and third floors were all full, so he had to share a table with others on the first floor.
The people at the same table with him were all averagely dressed. At first, they were a little worried about Lu Hanjiang. After all, even if he traveled in plain clothes, he would still be well-dressed. However, after several exchanges, they found that he had no airs, so they let them go.
.
The waiters from Fulu Tower came over and over again, and changed the tea pots several times. Finally, they heard some noise, and the crowd outside began to stir.
"Huashan disciples are here!"
I don’t know who shouted that first. Everyone craned their necks to wait and see. Lu Hanjiang also looked around and saw a man wearing a light robe and a sword at hand. His cold eyes stared at the excitement of the crowd.
Lowered the temperature a few times.
Wait, isn’t this Qi Li?
While sighing that the world is so small, Lu Hanjiang hurriedly moved his body back a little. Lu Hanjiang didn't want to meet the other person and just cut him over without saying a word. Good guy, that's really mud falling into the crotch. If you are not a thief, you will become a thief.
Holy.
While hiding behind, Lu Hanjiang accidentally bumped into someone and apologized hastily.
"I'm sorry, this brother...is this you?"
"You don't have eyes...it's you!"
The two people, one big and one small, were just awkward like this. Lu Hanjiang didn't expect that the real owner, who was holding a banquet here to watch the excitement, would come so openly.
You can't say that, at least this guy is wearing makeup and has two black hairs on his face... It's better not to dress up at all. It's just unnecessary.
The two of them stopped talking in a very tacit understanding. Each had their own reasons for not wanting to cause trouble, so they had no choice but to remain in a stalemate.
In the end, it was Lu Hanjiang who spoke first: "Miss Shang is so excited. Are you here to greet your senior brother?"
The word "Shang" is accentuated, which makes it sound strange.
"Hmph, don't be proud, little scholar. Judging from your appearance, you must have had some trouble with that Huashan hero." The fake young master said viciously.
Little, little scholar?
The corner of Lu Hanjiang's mouth twitched. He had been scolded for so many years. The lackeys and minions were used to it. This was the first time that he was scolded in such a literary and artistic way.
The woman whispered quietly: "Hey, little scholar, let's talk about it. We don't want to make things big here, right? How about pretending not to see it?"
Lu Hanjiang pretended to think about it and said, "That's fine."
"How generous!" The woman gave a thumbs up, but she saw Lu Hanjiang quietly leaning closer to the side.
In doubt, Lu Hanjiang raised his neck and said loudly: "Isn't this Miss Shang? Master Shang is doing well these days."
After saying that, the wind blew under Lu Hanjiang's feet, and he slipped into the crowd without a trace, leaving the woman stunned in place. When everyone looked at her with different eyes, she cursed angrily:
