Chapter 2245 Chapter 2247 [Hidden merit and fame]
Xiang Nan stayed in the tree for nearly two hours. It was not until it got dark that he faintly smelled a stink, which became stronger and stronger.
?This stench is different from the stench of Qixia Town.
The stench of Qixia Town is the odor of fermented sewage. But the stench now is clearly the stench of corpses. As a good doctor, Xiang Nan is naturally very familiar with this.
As the stench became stronger, Xiang Nan also began to hear a swishing sound, like the sound of small animals running on the ground.
Xiang Nan''s heart moved and he guessed that Lei Laowu was about to come out.
?He quickly held his breath and concentrated not to make any sound.
A moment later, a black shadow was seen slowly coming out of the tree hole.
As it drilled out, its body gradually grew larger. At first, it was only the size of a dog and didn''t look like a human being at all. After a while, he finally returned to his human form.
During the process of this change, his bones made strange rattling noises, which made Xiang Nan feel uncomfortable.
??If he hadn''t been mentally prepared and knew that this was Lei Laowu''s bone-shrinking technique, he would have thought he was seeing a living ghost when he saw this scene in the wilderness, deep in the mountains and dense forests.
…
?After Lei Laowu returned to his human form, he looked around and saw that there was no one around, then he poured the full bags on the ground and inspected them one by one.
"Yes, yes, they are all good treasures. They are worthy of being a royal tomb, and the treasures are..." he said with a proud smile.
At this moment, Xiang Nan flicked his fingers, and a flying needle shot out, but it made almost no sound.
?Especially now in the evening, when birds return to their nests and cry loudly; beasts come out of their caves and roar again and again. The subtle sound made by the flying needle is even harder to detect.
??In addition, Lei Laowu is only good at shrinking his bones and is not good at other martial arts. In the play, when he was competing with Lao Bai, he dug a hole into the Yamen and was captured alive by a few tolerance officers.
Comparatively, Pinggu Yidianhong went to prison to rescue the salt dealer. Even though the county government had made preparations in advance and invited the policemen from Shibalipu and Zuojiazhuang to ambush together, and also prepared long weapons and crossbows, Pinggu Yidianhong still had no way to stop him.
It can be seen that Lei Laowu''s Kung Fu is not strong.
What''s more, he didn''t know that Xiang Nan was ambushing him, and he was completely unprepared if he calculated it mentally or not.
Xiang Nan shot a needle, but Lei Laowu didn''t even move. The acupuncture point was directly stabbed by the flying needle, and he was frozen in place, motionless.
…
Xiang Nan immediately floated down from the tree and came behind him, hoping that he would know how to solve the acupuncture point, so he tapped him a few more times.
After confirming that he couldn''t move, Xiang Nan used Qinggong and went all the way to Lou Zhixian''s home.
Instead of asking the servants to inform him, he used Qinggong to cross the wall and entered. He saw Magistrate Lou having a meal in his room.
Xiang Nan did not come forward to meet him. Instead, he took out a piece of paper from his arms and picked up a pebble on the ground. Wrap the stone in paper and flick it with your fingers.
The pebbles roared away immediately, hitting the magistrate Lou''s job with a bang. Just with a click, his job was shattered.
Zhixian Lou was stunned and quickly looked outside, but no one was there.
He then looked down again and saw the stone wrapped in paper on the table. When he opened it, he saw it read, "The tomb of King Xin in Taiping Mountain has been stolen."
The magistrate Lou was shocked when he saw it.
?As a parent official, he naturally knew who King Xin was. I didn''t expect that his tomb would be in Taipingshan, let alone that his tomb would be stolen.
?This is a huge case, and once it happens, the court will be furious.
Therefore, Lou Zhixian could not take care of eating, so he immediately gathered his troops and rushed to Taiping Mountain.
After arriving there, I searched the mountain and happened to catch Lei Laowu who was being held by Xiang Nan.
“County Master, we caught him.” Capt. Xing was so happy that he couldn’t close his mouth. He didn’t expect that such a big case would be solved so quickly. It would be a good idea to catch this tomb robber. Looking at the way he was dressed and the stolen goods piled up in front of him, it was like someone had stolen the goods together, and he couldn''t even think about denying it.
“Very good, take him away and take away all the stolen goods.” Lou Zhixian didn’t expect that the case would be solved so quickly, and he couldn’t help but sigh for God’s protection.
…
Xiang Nan followed from a distance and was relieved when he saw that Lei Laowu was taken away.
?The reason why he is so secretive and almost sneaky is to avoid getting into trouble.
Because Lei Laowu comes from a family of tomb robbers, his family kung fu may not be very good, but his bone-shrinking skills and digging holes are almost unparalleled in the world.
If you offend such a person, you are not afraid of him confronting you head-on, but you are afraid of him assassinating you secretly. The Bone Shrinking Technique combined with the Earth Technique is the most suitable for assassination. It is simply impossible to guard against.
Xiang Nan wanted to arrest him, but did not want to be retaliated against, so he used this method.
?In this way, Lei Laowu was caught, and no one except himself knew that it was him who did the trick. It can be said that he has hidden his merits and fame.
…
In the following days, news of the theft of King Xin’s tomb in Taiping Mountain spread throughout Qixia Town.
Many people seem to have experienced it personally, and it is said that they have noses and eyes.
??Such as how Lei Laowu dug the robbery hole, what treasures there were in King Xin''s tomb, how the Yamen set up an ambush in advance, etc., are as mysterious as novels.
?This was also thanks to Mr. Xing’s publicity. It turned out that he was the one who captured Lei Laowu that day.
?It was obvious that Lei Laowu was fixed by Xiang Nan, but he still took all the credit. He boasted that he had received the news a long time ago, and then squatted at the entrance of the thief''s cave early, waiting for Lei Laowu to appear and catch him.
??The common people were short-sighted and could not see through the nonsense that Mr.
?The compliments from everyone also made Xing Baotou feel proud and happy.
?These days, Xiang Nan, the former leader, first competes in martial arts to get married, and wins a beautiful girl. After that, he wiped out the Black Wind Village, eliminated harm to the people, and became a hero praised by everyone.
A few days ago, he even donated all the gift money to benefit Qixia Town, which made him even more praised by the people. It can be said that he stole the show.
Comparatively, his current head catcher seems a bit incompetent and bleak.
?Now, he finally got back a win by capturing the tomb robber. He felt proud and proud, so he was naturally very happy.
…
"Let me tell you, the tomb of King Xin was stolen, and the court was furious. Even the emperor was angry. Liu Shilang of the Ministry of War was specially sent to supervise the case. They will be here in a few days." Xing Captou was drinking at Tongfu Inn. Said to the crowd.
“Ouch, Minister of War?! That’s a big official. It seems that our Qixia Town has never had such a big official.” Tong Xiangyu said with a smile.
"That''s natural." Mr. Xing nodded, "Let me tell you, Minister Liu has sent word that he will receive me specifically when the time comes."
“Ah, Lao Xing, you are really good at it.” Tong Xiangyu said with a smile.
“Congratulations to Xing Baotou!”, “Xing Baotou is so awesome!”
?Other diners also congratulated one after another.
Chief Xing is the only chief in the town. He is responsible for patrolling the streets, suppressing the ground, arresting suspects, and maintaining law and order. He has considerable power.
The so-called county officials are not as good as current officials. Few people dare to offend such a small official with real power. Naturally, everyone is happy to support it.
When Xing Captou heard this, he was naturally even more proud and smiled so hard that he couldn''t even close his mouth.
