Chapter 19
If you only look at the white hands of the old man, you really have to treat him as a young man.

There are all kinds of jewelry beside the old man, including gold, emerald, pearl, and agate.Shangguan Chouchou knew long ago that whenever Third Uncle was in a bad mood, he would take out the good things in his hands to enjoy.None of these jewels are ordinary.The emeralds are finely crafted, the gold has an extraordinary color, the pearls are plump and round, and the agates are also colorful and gentle.

It is said that some of these collections are treasures in the palace of Shu Kingdom.

The old man's surname is Hai, and Shangguan Chou Chou has never seen old man Hai's stealing skills.Old man Hai has long since stopped taking action himself.I only know that Old Man Hai is the only "tiaobai" among the thieves in the entire Shu Kingdom, that is to say, as long as anyone sees any property on his body, he can steal it silently and take it away without the owner noticing at all.

Although this legend is a little mysterious, but to become the master of the Pirates Sect, one has to rely on strength to speak.According to the third aunt, when the former sect master of Hai Laotou abdicated, he used the four words "reaching the peak" to evaluate Hai Laotou.Presumably, Old Man Hai is worthy of his name.

Old Man Hai seemed to have calmed down quite a bit, he stretched his waist, and at the same time as he stretched out his hand, the blades on his fingers were still criss-crossing and playing with knives, but when he closed the knives, all the lights of the knives disappeared, and he didn't know that it was hidden by Old Man Hai. Where did it go.

Shangguan Chou Chou's eyesight was vivid, seeing old man Hai stop, he hurried forward to say hello respectfully.

"I'm talking about why there are crows calling today. It turns out that weasels are paying New Year's greetings to chickens. You ugly boy are thinking about something about my old man again." Old man Hai turned his head and said.

Shangguan Chouchou said with a sneer, "Look at what you said, how dare I?"

Old man Hai waved his sleeves, covered all the boxes containing rare treasures in front of him, and said just now: "This is my coffin book, don't read it again."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Chouchou immediately stretched out his thumb and praised: "Third Uncle, at most others use gold coffins and silver coffins, but you are good, this is to inlay pearls and emeralds on the coffin, even if you go into the earth and close your eyes later, there will still be some Accompanied by treasures, alas, I'm afraid that the other group of people in the robbery door will miss it."

Old man Hai spat out thick phlegm, and cursed: "Do you curse the old man like that? Those group of tomb robbers only dare to beat people to death, they are not worthy of being stored in the robbery door, don't mention it in front of me."

"Third Uncle, you are also the master of the Thief Sect. Let's not talk about being immortal, but you have to be dignified." Shangguan Chouchou laughed.

The old man Hai shook his hand and said angrily: "Don't think I don't know that the word majestic is not a good word. I, Lao Hai, also went to a private school for several years when I was young. If we want to develop, we have to rely on knowledge to enrich our minds. If I don’t follow some antiques from now on, my eyes are darkened, and I don’t understand anything, isn’t this just waiting to be cheated by those profiteers? Well, Shangjun’s girl will let her go to school even when she grows up.”

While talking, Old Man Hai took out a tea box, which contained two tea tubes, one containing high-quality bamboo leaf green, and the other containing ordinary camellia.

Old man Hai didn't hesitate at all, he directly took out the ordinary camellia, first grabbed a little and put it into the teacup, as if he thought it was too much, he took out half of it and put it back.

The old man Hai took a look at Shangguan Chouchou, and said in a strange way: "Sit down and drink tea." But as soon as he said it, he regretted it, and he seemed to hold the tea pot tightly with great reluctance.

Shangguan Chouchou wasn't short-sighted either, he knew the nature of the third uncle, and immediately said: "Drink it cool, I'm not used to tea."

Old Man Hai breathed a sigh of relief, and carefully hid his tea pot.He uncovered a purple sand pot on the table and smelled it, and put it down after feeling very comfortable. He picked up the ordinary teapot next to it, poured some tea into the teacup and began to taste it.

Even though Shangguan Chouchou knew that Old Man Hai was stingy, he didn't know that he treated him like this in private.But it's not easy to say too much, alas, some words really have to be rotten in the mouth, otherwise how many people will be offended.

Old man Hai made the tea well, stroked the foam with the tea lid, took a sip of the tea contentedly, and then said: "I have very few rules for robbing the door, and I won't say anything else. The most important one is that you must never step on it into the casino.

Because our business makes money quickly, but the gambling house is quick to lose money.

Hey, those who eat by hand should never gamble.Every year beside the Jinxiu River, people go bankrupt because of gambling. Are there still few people who are forced to jump into the river?
Yesterday, I heard about the battle of God of Gamblers, it was crowded with people, old man, I am quite old, so I didn't think of going to join in the fun.But I just heard your name, hum, I really made an exception for you, and it took a whole ten taels of silver to get in.You have to pay me the money first. "

Shangguan Chouchou immediately took out ten taels of silver from his pocket and offered it with both hands.

Old Man Hai snatched it into his arms, grinned, and said happily: "Again, you are quite capable, you have earned the title of king of gambling in just a few years."

Shangguan Chouchou said embarrassingly: "Even if I am the king of gambling, I am still the junior of your king of robbers."

The old man Hai said calmly: "Stop flattering! You are not one of my robbers, and I don't care about you. Whether you are a gambling king or a fool, it has nothing to do with me, but your mother suffered a lot back then. Pleading, entrusting you to me before dying, I really can't let you go.

It's still considered that you are wise, and handed over the 'Drunk with the Jun'.Don't you know that 'everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty'.As the saying goes, "If you are not afraid of being taken, you are afraid of being remembered." '"

Old man Hai calmly changed his words "If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves thinking about you".

"If You Junzui falls into your hands, you will immediately become the target of public criticism. A mere gambler is nothing in the huge Splendid City. You are nothing but a blockbuster. I heard that you were in the casino before. Well done, now you dare to offend Mr. Zhongyong." Old man Hai snorted coldly.

Shangguan Chouchou smiled wryly: "It's also a moment of fever."

"Don't make a bitter face. Although you have offended Mr. Ke now, it may not be a blessing in disguise. Go out and avoid it. I'm afraid you won't be able to get along in Splendid City in the future.

You go back to prepare first, and go to Nanzhao in the next few days. There is an old friend of mine there. Although Nanzhao Kingdom is not as rich as Shu Kingdom, it is fine to live a lifetime in peace and live up to your mother's trust. "

Shangguan Chouchou also agreed with Old Man Hai's analysis, and immediately agreed: "Okay, I also know that person will not let me go easily, I was already prepared, but now I can't leave, I have to save someone .”

"Oh, who is it?" Old Man Hai wondered.

"I want to save the man hanging on the tower," Shangguan Chouchou said, seeing that Old Man Hai didn't know what happened, so he told him everything he knew.

After hearing this, Old Man Hai didn't yell, but pondered, and said after a while: "It's a chivalrous nature to value righteousness and despise life. But don't you think the trouble you caused isn't big enough? This incident is obviously caused by Ke Guogong's flattery to the enemy country. What you did. Saving that person, although it will not immediately lead to fighting, but the Ke family really hates you, and it is hard to say whether you will be able to escape from Shu Kingdom in the future. We are all ordinary people, how can we fight with you? Fighting between officials and families. What's more, there is a mountain-destroying army behind the Ke family."

Shangguan Chouchou said: "I only know that little Pi will be my savior, not an ant that can be sacrificed at any time in the eyes of those big shots.

Heaven knows, Earth knows, you know and I know.Robbery does things without anyone noticing, so why worry about it. "

The old man Hai refused sternly: "No, it's still not good. If I go to save it, I will bring disaster to the robber door. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. My robber door can continue for a long time in the Shu Kingdom until now. It is because I am good at Grasping the scale has always been enough. It is precisely because we have never done anything out of line that those grown-ups ignored us. If we save that general, we will touch the bottom line of those officials, even if we don’t suspect it at first On us, but you can guarantee that we will not leave any clues when we save the general. As long as they are serious, the robbery will be over. How can I be worthy of the ancestors of the robbers? They. How can I be sorry..."

Old Man Hai stopped talking suddenly, not because his voice was hoarse after talking too much, but because Shangguan Chouchou in front of him was holding a large stack of colorful bank notes.The smallest denomination is one hundred taels of silver.

"After saving people, let's all go to Nanzhao." Shangguan Chouchou suggested.

The old man Hai stared straight at his eyes, and kneaded the bank note in Shangguan Chouchou's hand with his fingers. With years of experience, he was convinced that it was true, and immediately cursed: "It's really like a mountain, I didn't expect Ugly boy, you are so rich, why didn’t you come here to honor me, an old man, so that I have to drink the sweet potato porridge cooked by Shangjun’s girl every day, and eat the corn mush made by your third aunt.”

"That's it!" The old man Hai knocked on the table immediately and said, "The world knows that there are many chivalrous people in my robbery. Tonight we will steal this little general. But first, I will steal the door." Just steal, after stealing someone, there will inevitably be officers and soldiers looking for him, you have to think of a way out first."

Old Man Hai smiled and put all the bank notes into the treasure box beside him.

Shangguan Chouchou hurriedly stopped him and shouted, "Leave a few for me."

Old man Hai took out some of the smallest denominations from the banknotes and handed them to him, "Ugly boy, you told us to move to Nanzhao yourself. It costs money to hire a carriage to move. It costs money to buy a house and land. Right. It costs money to arrange room and board for robbers.

There are too many places to spend, so I keep these bank notes with me first, and when we arrive in Nanzhao, we will refund more and make up for less. "

Shangguan Chouchou waved his hand and said: "If there is less, I can't make up for it. Third Uncle, you can take care of your old age. If it is too much, treat it as my filial piety. If I really go to Nanzhao in the future, I will have to visit you every day. Let's eat at home."

"Okay, sweet potato porridge, enough!" Old Man Hai smiled proudly, and hurried out to gather his men.

The thief door has its own contact method. With the old man Hai's order, Jinxiu City suddenly became more peaceful. All kinds of thieves who wandered the streets and alleys disappeared, and the people who sneaked in among the crowd also disappeared.

Shangguan Chouchou was not a member of the robber family, so he did not follow.Come to the side of the little yellow horse to feed the fodder.Make sure the horse has enough energy to handle everything tonight.

When people are busy, time always flies by.

When Old Man Hai brought a group of men down to the edge of the city gate, the moon and stars were already sparse.The tower was lit with torches, and the surrounding area was as bright as day, but General Pi was still hanging unconscious on the tower, shaken by the wind.
