Uncle, stay safe

Chapter 140

The fragrance became more and more intense, Xi Yanyi opened his eyes, got up and walked to the campfire to take down the cooked fish, and threw two logs into the fire, the campfire burned more vigorously, in this dark forest Very bright.

The horse stood not far away, eating a full belly of grass, and it was also full. Seeing the man who rode on it all day to show off his power, gnawed the slightly burnt fish with relish, the horse expressed no emotion, and agreed Compared with the scorched fish, it still thinks the grass tastes better.

After eating and drinking enough, it was nearly midnight, so he took out the cloak and wrapped himself up, Xi Yan leaned on the big tree, facing the bonfire, and went to sleep!

In the middle of the night, there was a cool breeze in the forest, and Xi Yanyi, who was nestled under the cloak, curled up unconsciously. The bonfire in front of him swayed with the wind, and the light fluttered around, which was a bit weird.

The horse with half-closed eyes opened his eyes and looked at the dark woods. His big eyes reflected the dark night and a ghostly shadow in the night.

Xi Yanyi's sound awakened the sleeping Xi Yanyi, his eyes opened a slit, and he saw a sneaky figure wandering around the horse, and the speed was so fast that he couldn't see the figure's appearance clearly. They are all ghosts.

In an instant, Xi Yanyi felt a little creepy. She had slept outside so many times and had never encountered such a situation. Looking at the dangling figure for a while, Xi Yanyi calmed down. The man seemed to want to He untied the horse's rein from the tree, but he couldn't pull it off no matter how hard he tried, and then drew out the dagger, trying to cut it off.

Xi Yanyi smiled silently, the corners of her lips rippling with pride, she tilted her head, waiting for a good show.

The slightly thin figure was holding a knife and cutting vigorously on the rein, and the outer leather rope was cut off. He seemed to think that he was about to succeed, so he put more effort into his hands, but sparks suddenly shot out before his eyes, and then he heard the sound behind him. There was an undisguised laughing sound, which made him startled, and jumped over, and saw the person who had been sleeping on the tree looking at him leisurely.

Xi Yanyi couldn't help laughing, "Brother, the rein is wrapped with high-quality steel wire. If you can cut it off, I will give you this horse!" A boy with big eyes but not a sly look, Xi Yanyi jokingly said.

Hearing Xi Yanyi's ridicule, the man's face flashed sullen, but he was really guilty. He put away the dagger in his hand that had been worn out by the steel wire, and folded his arms, "The skills are not as good as others, I admit defeat, no Just steal your horse." After saying that, he turned around and left.

But Xi Yanyi stopped him, "Wait! You are indeed inferior to others. As a thief, it's good for you to do light work, but your skills are really inferior. Thieves are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. You are the most Inferior." Xi Yanyi got up, took two logs and threw them into the fire that was fading, and said leisurely.

The thief who had turned to leave turned around when he heard Xi Yanyi's undisguised contempt, walked up to Xi Yanyi in a few steps, looked her up and down, his big eyes were full of disbelief, "Why? Could it be that you are the best thief?"

Xi Yanyi bent her lips and smiled, "Isn't it?" The man in front of him was about twenty years old, with a small stature, a few centimeters shorter than her, and dressed in black, he looked decent, but his skills were really poor. Being a thief can be treated like him, it is considered a wonderful flower!

The man looked at Xi Yanyi from top to bottom. Although the clothes were not expensive, the important thing was his temperament. Seeing that Xi Yanyi's temperament did not look like a thief, the man shook his head, "Liar!" With a light snort, He was about to turn around and leave, he didn't have time to argue with this liar here.

"It is precisely because I don't look like a thief, so I am the best thief!" Xi Yanyi said leisurely, and what he said seemed to be a bit of an expert. The man stopped, turned around and looked suspiciously again. Looking at Xi Yanyi, "So you are a senior?"

Xi Yanyi nodded solemnly, "That's right, you can call me senior. Although I have been in the world for so many years and got a lot of things, I don't have a famous name, but it is precisely because of this that I have always I've never missed it before." With a deep look on her face, Xi Yanyi turned around and walked back to the tree to sit down, not forgetting to pick up the cloak to wrap herself around.

The man followed Xi Yanyi to the tree, squatted down, and looked at Xi Yanyi, "If you are really a senior, what do you mean by stopping me? Do you want to take me in as an apprentice?"

Xi Yanyi almost laughed out loud, and shook his head profoundly, "Of course not, all the thieves in the world belong to one family, but because of their different levels, they set foot in different fields. You are a lowly little thief, and you are an elegant thief, how can you?" Take you as an apprentice?" After all the nonsense, Xi Yanyi felt that she had a very high spiritual level, and she was really accomplished to say such shameless words of such a high level.

The man was a little confused, but after thinking about it for a while, he understood, "You mean I'm inferior and can't get on the stage."

Xi Yanyi nodded, "A child can be taught!"

The man was a little angry, but seeing Xi Yanyi's appearance of a worldly expert, he took his anger back, sat on the ground, and faced Xi Yanyi, "Or else? Anyway, you are alone, and I am alone." Man, you must have nowhere to stay when you come to Xucheng, my home is in Xucheng, you teach me how to steal elegantly, I will be your apprentice, and then I will do things for you?" It seems that he just has a new idea for one of the thieves today. I know, think about it, an inferior thief must be incomparable with an elegant thief, of course I want to be that elegant thief.

Xi Yanyi smiled secretly, but her face remained calm, "It's good for me to be free by myself. Although I don't have any acquaintances in Xucheng, it doesn't hinder my goal this time. If I bring you such a fool, say Maybe my business can't be done well, maybe I have to lose my job at the end of the day, so wouldn't the low-key business I have been doing for so many years be gone?"

The man frowned and thought hard, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "You said you were going to do something in Xucheng? Then who is the next family you are eyeing? Let me tell you, in Xucheng, nine out of ten families are from the rivers and lakes. They are all masters, even if you are superb in martial arts, if you are not familiar with the situation, you will definitely suffer. I grew up in Xucheng, and I have seen a lot of martial arts masters, and I have been to almost every family in Xucheng. I don’t say that I understand the situation inside very clearly, but I’m pretty sure you can use me.” It seems that the determination to be an elegant thief is still quite firm.
