Cao Thief

Chapter 189 Love Letter
Ding-ding-ding-
The copper ball rotated in Cao Peng's hands, striking rhythmically, making a crisp sound.

"Ah Fu, can you stop playing with your two pills?"

"Uh……"

Cao Peng's forehead was immediately covered with black lines.

Why does this sentence sound so weird?
Translated, it means 'you stop playing with your two balls'.If this is placed in later generations, it will definitely cause ambiguity.

If you say one more word 'copper', will you die?

Cao Peng was very helpless.

Cao Peng's two balls...the two copper balls are actually made according to the health care balls of later generations.

In his previous life, the old martial artist who taught him Kung Fu liked to play with 'Shuang Wan'.It is said that this 'double pill' can strengthen hand strength, stimulate blood vessels, and strengthen Qi and blood.

The limbs and the whole body of the human body are a whole.

Among the fourteen major meridians, in addition to the two meridians of Ren and Du, the twelve meridians connect the hands, feet, chest, abdomen, head and other parts of the body. In later generations of Chinese medicine, it is called "connecting internal organs, external network limbs'.As the saying goes, ten fingers connect to a heart.It is said that these ten fingers are closely connected with various viscera and organs in the whole body.The stimulation on the hands can be transmitted to the corresponding organs and affect the whole body.And this 'double pill' can achieve this miraculous effect.

In the beginning, Cao Peng got his inspiration from the jade ball in Chen Sheng's house.

He originally wanted to use jade to make it, but later he felt that jade was fragile, and good jade was hard to find, so it was impossible to make it all at once.So when he was in Haixi, he found the best local blacksmith through the gold market Xingshou Huangzheng, and made a pair of double pills out of red copper.

Each weighs about two catties, and they are usually rotated and played with in the hands, and can be used as hidden weapons when necessary.

In Bai Yuan Tong Bei Fist, there are also methods of using hidden weapons.For example, what meteor chases the moon, what double ghosts knock on the door... and so on.Cao Peng didn't pay much attention to this aspect of kung fu in his previous life, but he can still remember the general practice.

'Double Pill', also known as Iron Meteor.

The meaning is that when it is used as a hidden weapon, it is as fast as a shooting star.

Liang Shangjun's eyeballs rolled around, looking at the pair of iron meteors in Cao Peng's hands, he couldn't help trembling in his heart.Just now, when he was hiding on the beam, the iron meteor hit his side.Liang Shangjun's skill is not weak, and he can clearly feel that Cao Peng's blow should have left behind.Otherwise, if the iron meteor hit him, even if he couldn't kill him, it would still break his bones.

Outside the door, Xia Houlan also heard the movement.

However, he was ordered by Xun Yan to guard outside and not allow anyone to approach.

Although Xun Yan brought ten generals, he already felt that the ones who could really reassure him were Xia Houlan and Cao Peng.

When Cao Peng put away the iron meteor, Xun Yan went up and down to look at the gentleman on the beam.

The gentleman on the beam is not too tall, about seven feet, about 165 in height.

With a thin body, he belongs to the kind of master who throws it into the pot and can't cook a few taels of oil.The arms are slightly longer than normal and hang down almost to the knees.Mustache, short beard under the jaw, triangular eyes, the eyeballs are yellow and seem a little cloudy, standing in the crowd, it is unremarkable.

"who are you?"

The gentleman on the beam quickly put his hands together and bowed, "The villain Luo Kedi, I pay my respects to my benefactor."

The ancients often used a single name to be noble and a double name to be cheap.Generally speaking, those who take double names are mostly criminals and prisoners who have become sons-in-law, and their social status will not be too high.And they were destined to have two names from birth.Even registration and bookkeeping will also show people with double names.

Xun Yan frowned slightly, and said nothing.

With his background, he really disdains to talk to people with double names.

He glanced at Cao Peng, who immediately understood what he meant.Xun Yan asked him to come forward and talk to Mr. Liang Shang...uh, Luo Kedi.

"Luokedi, what do you do for a living?"

A glint of light flashed across Luo Kedi's cloudy eyes, and he raised his hands to Cao Peng again.

"Little benefactor, the villain has a question in his heart. I wonder if little benefactor can solve the problem for the villain?"

This guy, seems like a lot of fun!
Cao Peng couldn't help laughing, and nodded slightly: "Ask."

"The villain has practiced the art of lightness since he was a child. Although he can't say that he is superb, he can fly over the walls and land silently. The beams in this house are very high, and the villain also feels that it is very secret, but the little benefactor can see the villain's secrets at a glance. Hiding place, I wonder what mistake the villain made?"

The utterance of this sentence basically exposed Luo Kedi's business.

What kind of person would jump over the roof and walk through the wall when nothing happened, and pass through the door to transfer ownership?Who needs to walk ghosts and land silently?Who needs to deliberately practice hiding places?The answer is ready to come out, that is the thief!But it can be seen that Luo Kedi belongs to the kind of thief who is very strict with himself and very self-motivated.Cao Peng couldn't help showing a smile, looked at Luo Kedi, and didn't speak for a while.

There was a hint of oppression in his eyes.

Luo Kedi's heart also beat non-stop.

"Actually, your hiding skills are good and very clever... At first, I didn't notice you."

"That……"

"But the problem is the dust on the beams."

"dust?"

Cao Peng walked to the desk, stretched out his hand, and wiped the desk.

"Mister is so tidy, so when Mr. left just now, I wiped the desk for a while. But just now, I found that there was a layer of dust on the desk. Of course, it was not particularly obvious. It was only because I wiped it just now Take note of these."

"It's that simple?"

"Uh... Actually, it's that simple."

Luo Kedi couldn't help smiling wryly, while Xun Yan stood aside, showing appreciation.

A scene before he left Xu Du suddenly appeared in his mind.Before leaving Xudu, Guo Jia visited him.

"Xiu Ruo, I have something to ask... Some time ago, Uncle Deng wrote to me saying that his brother-in-law is about to reach the crown, and he wanted to find a husband for him. But due to various reasons, you also know... I know that Xiu Ruo is a talented person. , and I don’t have any disciples, so I don’t know if I can accommodate them?”

Xun Yan was a little unhappy at the time, and felt that Guo Jia's request seemed presumptuous.

But now, Xun Yan felt that he might not be able to teach Cao Peng well.

Maybe……

A thought emerged in Xun Yan's mind.

Cao Peng didn't know that Xun Yan's thoughts had already been turned in thousands of times in this flash of light and flint.

He was asking Luo Kedi: "Luo Kedi, what do you do for a living, I already know. I have answered your question, now it's time for you to answer my question... I want to know, what exactly did you do? What happened to cause Cao Wujun's thief to pursue you for thousands of miles?"

From Dantu to Wu County, the seat of Wu County, there are three counties: Qu'a, Piling, and Wuxi.

Although the two places are not thousands of miles apart, the distance is constant.Dantu is one of the thirteen counties under Wujun's administration, and it is also the northernmost county.Generally speaking, ordinary robbers are mostly arrested by the county thief Cao.There are only two possibilities for alarming the Wu County thief Cao. One is that this person is doing everything in Wu County, and the other is that the crime is so big that the county thief Cao stepped out.

From Han Zong's previous words, Cao Peng could hear: This Han Zong came from Wu County, chasing and killing Luo Kedi all the way.

So, what major crime did Luo Kedi commit?
Luo Kedi hesitated for a moment, then sighed, "Since little benefactor has already guessed the villain's job, then the villain will no longer hide it.

The villain is from Wu County, and what he is doing is the transfer through the door and the business without capital.To be honest, the villain still hasn't figured out how he provoked Cao Wu Jun.About a month ago, the villain left a family.Afterwards, Cao, the thief from Wu County, went out one after another to arrest local idlers everywhere.The villain realized that the situation was not good, so he escaped from Wu county overnight.I thought I would avoid it for two days and go back after the limelight passed, but who would have known... Later, the villain leaked his whereabouts, and was followed by those Sun family dogs, and fled all the way from Wu County to Dantu.

Originally, the villain planned to take a boat to Jiangbei, but today the pier was blocked.

Those Sun family dogs were in a hurry to chase, and the villain also had nowhere to go, so he fled here as a matter of luck.Never thought about it..."

Cao Peng wondered, "Then what kind of house did you steal?"

"Actually, it's not really a family. It's just an ordinary family in Wu County."

"Then, what did you steal?"

"I didn't steal anything..."

Cao Peng's face darkened, and his voice suddenly became sharp, "Luo Kedi, do you think I'm young and can be bullied, or do you think I dare not kill people?"

"Ah... why did my little benefactor say that?"

The iron meteor in Cao Peng's hand spun rapidly, and the two pills made a rubbing sound as they spun.

Luo Kedi's face turned pale with fright, and he knelt down and prostrated himself on the ground.

You dare not kill?
I saw it all. You just killed someone without blinking your eyes.

"You didn't steal any rich family, and you didn't steal any valuables. What's the reason for attracting Wu Jun's bandit Cao to chase him thousands of miles away?"

"Little benefactor, I really don't know."

Luo Kedi said: "The villain hasn't figured out what's going on until now.

The villain has lived in Wu County for so many years, how could he not understand some truths?The villain is very clear about what people can move and what people can't.Over the years, the villain has never made a mistake, how could he know that this time, he would cause so many disasters? "

Cao Peng looked towards Xun Yan.

Xun Yan nodded and coughed slightly.

"Luo Kedi, logically speaking, I should cooperate with Wu Jun to arrest you.

But, I don't think it's easy for you... You should remember carefully, what exactly did you steal to bring about such a murderous disaster. "

Xun Yan spoke very slowly, but with an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Luo Kedi scratched his head and stood up abruptly, "You two benefactors wait a moment."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and twisted his body, soaring into the air.One foot stepped on the edge of the window, and suddenly exerted force.The body is like a light and agile swallow, rising silently.Putting his hands on the beam, he twisted his body in the air and quietly landed on the beam.

He took out a package from the beam, and then jumped off.

"Grandpa, the villain has no long belongings, and when he ran out, he carried everything inside.

I stole two yi of gold that day, and sold the money that day, and used it to eat wine; besides the two yi of gold, I also had a box.The villain loves its delicacy, so he keeps it by his side.There is nothing in the box, just some letters... But the villain can't read, so he doesn't know what it is.Before the villain could deal with it, he was hunted down by Han Zong and brought him with him in a hurry.If it was really because of this family, the villain thought it might be the letter in this box. "

While speaking, Luo Kedi opened the package, and took out a wooden box made of green sandalwood from it.

Not too big, as Luo Kedi said, the workmanship is also very fine.

Cao Peng took the wooden box and handed it to Xun Yan.Xun Yan opened the box and found that there was a stack of precious Zuo Bo papers in the box.

This family is not simple!

It's nothing more than hiding gold, but there is such a precious Zuo Bo paper?
He picked up a piece of letter paper, and quickly swept across the letter paper by the candlelight, but his face changed, and his expression suddenly looked a little weird.

"Luo Kedi, is that all?"

"that's it."

"You... didn't lose anything?"

"The villain swears in the name of his deceased mother, there is absolutely no falsehood.

The villain is illiterate, so even if he reads it, he doesn't know what it is.At that time, the rumors were tight, how dare I handle it casually? "

"Ah Fu, come and take a look."

Cao Peng stepped forward and took the smooth and delicate Zuo Bo paper from Xun Yan's hand.

Before I could see the contents inside, a faint fragrance lingered in my nose.It seems to be an incense commonly used by women, but what kind of fragrance is it?Cao Peng couldn't tell the difference.The color of Zuo Bo's paper is slightly lavender, and it can be seen that the owner is very interesting.

He bent down and read the content carefully.

The handwriting is very elegant, and there are very obvious traces of flying white, it must have copied Cai Yong's inscription.

But this content...

Cao Peng couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.

Actually, it was a love letter.

And this love letter is still a poem in the Book of Songs.

It basically means: We made an appointment, and I came to the agreed place, but my lover did not show up.Beau, why didn't you come?Could it be another new love?You know, I waited until dawn, and my tears have run out...

The infatuated woman, her longing for her lover, as well as her inner worries and anxieties are vividly written on the paper.

But there is no heads up, and no signature.

Presumably, there is no need for this.

Cao Peng scratched his head and read a few more letters, which were roughly the same.

Some infatuated women feel extremely happy when they get a reply from their lover.

Some are inexplicable worries, as if they are worried about something...

"Luokedi, are you sure you haven't discarded it?"

Luo Kedi was about to cry!
"You two benefactors, if the villain speaks half a lie, he will die badly... He will be fed to the dog after he dies! I really have not discarded anything. The benefactor thinks, most of the villain's friendships are people who are as vulgar as the villain , What's the use of this thing? If it's a blank piece of paper, the villain can exchange some money to spend it. But above... Besides, the villain's business is about being careful. At that time, the rumors had been suppressed, and the villain How dare you act rashly. I thought I could get through it safely, but Han Zong actually destroyed Meili and pulled out the villain."

Meili must be a place where stolen goods are sold in Wu County.

Since Luo Kedi sold the gold, Han Zong must have followed the clues from the two yields of gold, and finally found Luo Kedi...

However, it is not enough to chase after thousands of miles!
Cao Peng looked at the love letters in the box and fell into deep thought for a moment: Could it be that there are some secrets hidden in these love letters?

He raised his hands and congratulated book friend Rokey_y on his promotion to leader.
