Chapter six hundred and forty-eight catch the thief
Yu Sheng stood there with a basket of eggs, looking at their retreating figures, feeling a little stunned for a moment.
What's strange, what happened to them today? Yu Sheng was full of doubts, shook his head and walked towards the city lord's mansion.
It was still raining, not very heavily, and it was rushing towards people with a trace of moisture. The low-lying areas on the streets were filled with water. Passers-by took detours, but Yu Sheng could only stride across.
When he stepped on it, the water flowed from the low-lying area to the high-level drainage ditch, surprising passers-by who could stuff a large duck egg into it.
Yu Sheng was very satisfied with the effect of his show off, so he chose low-lying areas to walk, and water lotus flowers even appeared under his feet to support his soles.
While he was walking and having fun, he passed by an alley.
"Stop, if you don't stop, I won't be polite to you!" someone shouted.
Yu Sheng stood still and looked at his son. The voice was familiar. It was the voice of Tian Shi, the commander of the Jinyi Guards.
What was left for Yu Sheng was a strange figure. He was thin, short, lean, with pointed ears and cheeks, and his long hair was tied up around his neck to prevent it from getting in the way.
He threw Tian Shi far away, turned around and said proudly: "Are you stupid? Only if I stop, can you be rude to me. If I don't stop, how can you be rude to me?"
Tian Shi stood there, panting and bending down to support his knees. Just as he was about to pursue him again, he raised his head and saw Yu Sheng peeking out of the alley, and immediately steadied himself.
"You are stupid. I say it again, stop and keep the money from the stolen city lord, otherwise I will be rude to you." Tian Shi said righteously.
"The city lord's money, what are you talking about? That little girl is the city lord?" Thin Monkey was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand indifferently, "Whoever she is, if you want me to give the money back, there is no way!"
Tian Shi sneered, "I know that you are so powerful in Qinggong that even the city lord can't catch you, but you don't want to give it back? It's not up to you."
"Catch me if you can. I've traveled all over the world for so many years and I've never been caught up by anyone." Thin Monkey said arrogantly.
"Okay." Tian Shi felt that he had added enough information to his words. He immediately held the hilt of the sword, raised his breath and chased the thin monkey.
"With your abilities, you won't be able to catch up with me for another year." Thin Monkey crossed his arms and gave Tian Shi a while before turning around and running away.
His speed was very fast, like a gust of wind passing by in an instant, causing the fallen leaves on the ground to tumble, and the water surface only making slight ripples after he stepped on it.
He instantly distanced himself from Tian Shi and turned back to make a face at Tian Shi.
Tian Shi feigned anger: "Just wait, if I catch you, I will let you call me grandpa."
"Grandpa is waiting." Thin Monkey stuck out his tongue, turned around and had already reached the entrance of the alley. He shouted to Yu Sheng who was probing his head: "Get out of the way, I won't bear any consequences if I get hit to death..."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a dragon roar, and a water dragon dragging its body of sewage rushed towards the thin monkey unexpectedly.
"Oh, there are actually helpers." The thin monkey didn't show any panic on his face. He pointed his toes towards the alley wall, raised his body from the ground, and rolled in the air, narrowly avoiding the dragon's head.
When the water dragon swung its tail, the skinny monkey's toes were a little closer to the wall next to him, and his body was once again at its peak to avoid the water dragon, and he calmly came out of the alley.
"You want to catch me, but you still have some..." During the leap, Shouhou turned around and said to Tian Shi, swallowing the rest of his words only halfway.
A person appeared in front of him out of thin air, grabbed the thin monkey by the collar, and swung it hard, causing the thin monkey to fall to the ground on his face.
The thin monkey couldn't see who it was, and his body kept struggling. However, the force of being thrown was very strong, and no matter how good he was in Qinggong, he couldn't stabilize his body.
With a "chirp" sound, the thin monkey fell to the ground.
He struggled to get up, and saw a dark figure running over, grabbing his shoulder, throwing him over his shoulder, and without stopping, he picked up his arm and smashed it to the ground.
"Ouch, stop, stop..." Thin Monkey kept begging, but the person who did it ignored him.
From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the pursuing Jin Yiwei slowly walking over, and said hurriedly: "Oh, brother, I was wrong, let your people stop."
Tian Shi stood still, looked at the thin monkey from a high position in the forest, and plucked his ears, "What...are you...saying...coming?, I...can't hear..."
He paused for a long time before speaking. He was lazier than a sloth. When he said this, he had spent the rest of his life beating the skinny monkey.
"Grandpa, grandpa, I was wrong, please stop your men." Thin Monkey shouted, even a man made of iron could not withstand such a fall, and he would die if he fell again.
"Oh, stop?" Tian Shi nodded. In the time it took him to say three words, the spider had built half a web under the eaves.
"Isn't it retribution for letting you show off your talent?" Tian Shi still spoke so slowly that it made people mad,
When he spoke, he did not forget to lift his leg in slow motion like a movie, kicked the thin monkey a few times to relieve his anger, and then said to Yu Sheng: "Sir, it's almost done..."
In just a few words, the spider not only built half of its web, but also caught a flying insect.
Skinny Monkey couldn't help it anymore and interrupted him, "I beg you, please speak faster, my body is going to fall apart."
Soon Shouhou regretted his interruption.
Tian Shi blinked innocently and said to him slowly, "It's not my fault. You ran so fast. Chasing you took all the energy out of me to speak."
When he said this, the people who were watching the excitement were really going crazy and couldn't bear it and left.
"No, I have to make up something." Tian Shi's face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When he said "no", he raised his feet and walked towards Yusheng's basket. After he pinched an egg, he opened it and swallowed it raw. After smacking it for a long time, he finished saying the word "thing".
"Oh my god, please kill me." Thin Monkey closed his eyes.
"That can't be done, young master, if you fall down again you will be killed." Tian Shi spoke quickly, wondering if it was the effect of the egg.
"No, you dare to steal my aunt's things, especially money. I'm tired of living." Yu Sheng continued to beat her, while comforting Tian Shi, "Don't worry, if you fall to death, I will come back to life and continue to beat her."
"Ahem," Tian Shi said, "Actually, what he robbed was the little girl's purse."
"What?" Yu Sheng stopped moving his hand.
Tian Shi kicked the thin monkey, "How can this kid have the ability to rob the city lord's things? Even if he dares to rob, the city lord will pierce him with a sword and still let him live until now? I just want to scare him."
"Scare him?" Yu Sheng's IQ came online at this time. He felt that as a swordsman, my aunt would not be robbed by a guy with great qinggong skills.
Tian Shi nodded and suppressed a smile, but the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but curve up.
Tian Shi mentioned that the city lord was not a bluff. He was afraid that he would not try his best to stop this skinny monkey for the rest of his life, so he told nonsense that the city lord and his money bag had been robbed.
He knew that as long as these two words were put together, the rest of his life would never be anything more than a matter of thought.
"Yes, not the city lord, not the city lord." Shouhou said hurriedly when he saw that Yu Sheng had become loose.
"You told me earlier, if it weren't for my little aunt, I wouldn't be too lazy to meddle in this business. It's just for you to exercise." Yu Sheng said, proving that Tian Shi's decision was right.
Yu Sheng was about to let go of the thin monkey when he remembered that the thin monkey had just said, "Whoever she is," and "Let you, a beast, not take the city lord seriously." Yu Sheng threw him hard again before letting go.
"Haha", Tian Shi laughed.
"Why are you laughing?" Yu Sheng looked at Tian Shi in confusion.
Tian Shi covered his mouth, "Habit, habit, you know, our boss laughs whenever he hears the word "beast", don't we, the subordinates, not give her face?"
"That's true." Yu Sheng clapped his hands and straightened his clothes.
The thin monkey lay motionless on the ground. He felt that he was extremely happy now and had to enjoy the silence of this moment.
"Your eggs are pretty good." Tian Shi stopped catching the thin monkey and went to get another egg.
"I bought this to make Cao'er grow taller." Yu Sheng slapped his hand away, "Why are you the only one chasing this kid?"
"Forget it, he bumped into me for dinner today. If it had been other times, I wouldn't have cared about him." Tian Shi shamelessly asked Yu Sheng for eggs.
When Yu Sheng saw that he hadn't eaten, he gave him another meal.
"Recently, many people from the Southern Wilderness have fled to Yangzhou, and some unruly people have also come. The Jinyiwei are busy controlling the floods, and they are not busy at all."
Tian Shi said and swallowed the egg, then grabbed Shouhou's feet, waved his hand to Yu Sheng, and dragged Shouhou towards Jinyiwei's Yamen.
