Chapter 42: The Thief King is on the move, Xu Damao escapes

On early autumn nights, the stars twinkle in the night sky like crystal clear pearls.

They glow alone in the dark, bringing infinite beauty and mystery to the night.

But such a beautiful night was ruined by two sneaky figures.

Under the moonlight, shadows, one big and one small, one in front and one behind, shuttled back and forth in the courtyard.

The big shadow is long and thin, while the small shadow is like a short wooden barrel.

From the shadows, we can judge that the larger shadows are adults and the smaller shadows are children.

Two shadows avoided obstacles and reached the middle courtyard as if they were familiar with the route. They saw the shadows squatting in the corner.

It was already one o'clock in the morning.

The yard was quiet, with only the buzzing of mosquitoes and the rustling of trees in the wind.

Xu Damao whispered in a pinched voice: "Praise the joke, it's up to you from now on."

As everyone knows, under the doting of Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi, Peng Geng was the best at stealing, breaking into houses and picking locks.

People in the underworld jokingly call him the "King of Thieves".

Therefore, there is nothing that Peng Geng cannot steal. If he fails to steal it, it must be because he does not want to steal it.

Peng Geng angrily retorted, "Xu Damao, is this what you meant by letting me eat meat?"

Xu Damao was choked by the flattery. Under the cover of the moonlight, he touched his nose uncomfortably and argued:

"He Yuzhu bought two live chickens, a fish, and a duck. Even if the fish and duck are eaten, there is still a live chicken, right? If you take it out, you can eat meat, right?"

"You don't need to tell me, I can do it myself." As soon as he returned to the yard, Jia Zhang scolded He Yuzhu in his ear.

When Peng Geng learned that He Yuzhu had bought chicken, duck, fish and meat, he had an idea.

The simplest and most direct way to get meat is to ask Qin Huairu or Jia Zhangshi to ask He Yuzhu for meat.

So he used his unreasonable and tantrum method to make Qin Huairu go and ask for the meat.

After being scolded by Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu finally went to He Yuzhu to ask for meat.

In the end, I didn't get any meat at all.

Peng Geng was so angry that he smashed things and didn't even eat dinner.

If the first method doesn’t yield any meat, then you can only use the second method.

That is stealing.

And he has always been confident that there is nothing he cannot steal.

He was sure to find something of value in any house he entered or any place he visited.

He waited until everyone fell asleep, then came to the place where he had agreed to meet Xu Damao.

After the two of them gathered, he followed Xu Damao to the door of He Yuzhu's room.

Now hearing Xu Damao telling him to steal, although it was consistent with his original intention, Peng Geng couldn't help but ridicule Xu Damao.

Xu Damao glared at Peng Geng, then remembered that they were hiding in the shadow of the corner and Peng Geng couldn't see him getting angry.

Xu Damao urged unhappily, "Alright, alright, stop talking. Do you still want to eat meat? If you want to eat meat, go ahead. I'll keep watch for you."

"I won't share the meat with you. If you take it, you can have it all."

Even if something happened and he didn't eat the meat, Sha Zhu wouldn't be able to find him.

He is not greedy, he just can't stand Shazhu's arrogance.

In short, he will be happy if he can make Shazhu unhappy.

However, Peng Geng is just a child after all. He is only thinking about eating meat and has no idea that Xu Damao is using him.

When Peng Geng heard that Xu Damao didn't give anything away, he jumped up with joy. He was so excited that he forgot to cover up his voice, "Xu Damao, you said it, so no matter what I get, I won't give it to you."

Xu Damao was frightened by his sudden exclamation and quickly covered his mouth, his brows were furrowed so much that they were about to fly up. He puffed out his cheeks and warned him angrily in a low voice.

"Keep your voice down, afraid that others might not know. Are you here to steal something?"

"Don't talk nonsense, go quickly, I'll keep watch for you."

After Xu Damao finished speaking, he let go of the stick and pushed him, urging him to act faster.

Under the cover of night, Peng Geng crouched in He Yuzhu's room for a while, then walked towards the room where He Yushui had lived before.

When Xu Damao saw that he didn't enter He Yuzhu's room, he pinched his throat, wanting to shout but not daring to.

His heart was in his throat.

He was so anxious that his eyebrows were raised like inverted eight characters. He quickly walked to Penggeng, grabbed him, and asked in a low voice, "Penggeng, what's wrong with you? Only Shazhu's room has meat and other things. This is the house where He Yushui lives. She has already moved out. What could be here?"

Peng Geng angrily retorted to him, "Xu Damao, don't worry about it. Just keep your affairs under control and I will steal my things."

The name of the Thief Saint comes from the fact that he has some outstanding qualities, which is why others like him.

Places that ordinary people can't even think of, he, the thief, can find with just a simple search.

Therefore, only those who don't want to steal will... otherwise... humph! All will be stolen.

Peng Geng looked at the door lock, but after examining it for a while, he took out a piece of wire from his pocket.

He inserted the wire into the keyhole and listened carefully.

So, with a click, the lock was pried open.

The broken lock fell to the ground, and Peng Geng pushed open the door. Xu Damao tried to grab him anxiously but failed.

He stamped his feet in anger and then disappeared into the darkness.

The supporting actor in the room saw the rooster sleeping soundly as soon as he entered the room.

He held the rooster in his arms with a smile, and did not forget to ridicule Xu Damao, "I am a Taoist saint, how can I get the title in vain."

Peng Geng seemed to be born with a talent for stealing. Just now when he was at the door of Sha Zhu's room, he felt that the rooster was not there.

He smelled the stench of rooster shit, the aroma of braised duck, and the sweet aroma of chicken stewed with mushrooms.

He sniffed the air and found that the smell was not coming from Shazhu's room.

So he followed the smell and fragrance and came to He Yushui's room.

The closer you get to He Yushui's room, the stronger the stench and fragrance become.

But Xu Damao didn't smell it, and the supporting actor knew that he had a gifted nose.

He held the rooster and walked to the table and found two pieces of braised duck and a small bowl of mushroom stewed chicken.

Although the duck and chicken are just skeletons, the fragrance can't be resisted and wafts into Peng Geng's nose.

Holding the chicken in his arms, he ate all the duck and chicken carcasses cleanly, and even ate the soup and chili peppers.

"The braised duck made by Sha Zhu is really delicious." Peng Geng said while licking his hands. Not yet satisfied, he picked up the plate and licked it clean.

Licking is cleaner than washing with water.

"Shazhu is such a big eater. He ate a fish, a duck, and a chicken, and only this much is left, not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth."

I was still enjoying the food and my throat was itchy, but it was gone.

So he started to curse Shazhu, and as he cursed, his temper got worse.

He kicked the table a few times while holding the chicken, but he stepped on something and there was a cracking sound.

then!!

"what……"

Peng Geng's earth-shattering cry exploded in the yard.

"what happened?"

"Who's calling?"

"What happened?"

"What are you yelling about in the middle of the night?"

……

Then the rooms in the courtyard lit up one after another.

Xu Damao, who was watching outside the door, saw that the situation was not good. He didn't care what happened and ran back to the backyard.

On the way back, I almost bumped into Liu Haizhong...
