422 The ransom-2

……….

In a certain room in the inn.

A woman with heavy makeup and a pair of large, almond-shaped eyes sat at the table. She rested her chin on one hand and played with a small Jade Mirror with the other.

“Why can’t I use this treasure?”

The fake miss Rongrong carefully examined the fragment of the book of the nether world. It looked ordinary at first glance, but as the only successor of the Steal sect, she had a keen intuition for treasures.

Searching for treasures was the innate skill of the Steal sect’s disciples.

There were many strange patterns on the surface of the mirror. There were boxes, silver notes, military crossbows, silver ingots … With her many years of ‘treasure hunting’ experience, she quickly guessed, ”

This was a magical treasure that recognized its master by blood and had its own storage function.

Miss Rongrong’s heart immediately burned with passion. She did not expect to catch so many big fish in one go. Not only did she get a treasure, but there was also a huge amount of wealth inside.

“How do I take out the things inside …”

The fake Rongrong held the fragment of The Earth Book and knocked on the table.

She had never seen a magic weapon that required blood to recognize its master, so she was helpless. Of course, there was one principle that remained the same. As long as the storage spiritual artifact was destroyed, the items stored inside would automatically fall off.

However, this was a magic weapon that recognized its master by blood. Its value was hard to estimate, and he definitely couldn’t kill the chicken to get the egg.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

“Who is it?”

Rongrong, “the girl asked with a frown. She didn’t ask the waiter for hot water, and she still had enough money for the room.

“Check the water frame.” A man’s voice could be heard from outside.

Hearing this voice, miss “Rongrong’s” expression changed greatly. Without thinking, she grabbed the small Jade Mirror and put it in her pocket. She got up and rushed to the window.

“Swish!”

She opened the window and was about to escape when she saw an orange cat sitting by the window, looking at her with amber eyes.

Miss “Rongrong” felt as if her brain had been pierced by steel nails, tearing her soul apart. She covered her head and sat on the ground with a muffled groan.

The door was pushed open, and Xu Qi ‘an, with one hand on the knife, strode into the room. He didn’t recognize anyone.

The orange cat also jumped into the house from the window.

“It’s you indeed!”

Xu Qi ‘an drew out his black and gold long knife and placed it on miss Rongrong’s neck. He snorted.”Thousand-faced female thief.”

“My Lord, what are you saying?”

Miss Rongrong’s quick-witted eyes moved around, as if she was thinking of a countermeasure.

Xu Qi ‘an reached out his hand and grabbed the fragment of the book of the nether world. The fragment flew out of Rongrong’s arms and fell into his hand.

“Ah!” The girl, Rongrong, cried out and reached out her hand to ask him to stay. However, she felt a pain in her neck and gave up her plan gloomily.

This man’s combat power was so strong that even ten of her wouldn’t be enough to be cut down by him.

After checking the fragments of the book of the nether world and confirming that the items inside were not lost, Xu Qi ‘an heaved a sigh of relief.

The gold, silver, and banknotes in the mirror were all his possessions. He had been in this world for half a year and had gone through hardships to save them up.

It was all his wife’s money.

He put the fragment of the book of the nether world back into his pocket, removed his knife, pulled a chair over, and sat down. He looked at the dejected female cat burglar with a smile and said, ”

“Hey, aren’t you going to quibble?”

“What’s there to quibble about being caught red-handed?” The female cat burglar rolled her eyes and muttered, ”

“I’ve been in Jiuzhou for many years, but. didn’t expect to fall in the capital. It’s indeed worthy of being the city of the best in the world, it’s not an injustice …”

His tone and manner of speaking showed that he was an experienced person. It was completely different from the green tea attitude she had shown in the restaurant.

It was just a disguise in the restaurant, and now she was showing her original temper.

Xu Qi ‘an was like a cat that had caught a mouse. She said jokingly, “”Just try to quibble. Maybe I’ll soften my heart and let you go.”

The female cat burglar’s expression changed immediately. She looked sad and said,

. ‘m also a poor girl. At the age of three.. was sold to. brothel by my parents. At the age of ten.. was forced to serve customers. At the age of fifteen.. was chosen by my master as his last disciple. I thought that my hard days had finally come to an end, but who knew that my master was also a beast in heart. On a dark and windy night, he, he …

Perhaps it was because the acting was too realistic, Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t tell if it was real or not.

Alright, alright. I sympathize with your experience, but the law is unforgiving. I have a few questions to ask you, and I’ll answer them honestly.

“How did you manage to steal my treasure without anyone knowing?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

this is my specialty. I can steal anything below the fourth-grade.

“Then how did you disguise yourself?” Xu Qi ‘an leaned over, pinched her chin, and looked at her carefully. He chuckled.

“It’s not a human skin mask, but this face is definitely not yours.”

“This is the unique secret skill of our thief sect, called the art of deception. It can really change one’s appearance, and it’s not comparable to ordinary disguise skills.”

“Wait!”

Daoist priest Golden Lotus suddenly interrupted, his amber eyes staring at the female cat burglar.”What did you just say? what sect are you from?”

The female cat burglar, who suddenly felt a sharp killing intent, said weakly, “”The thief sect …”

Taoist master Golden Lotus looked at Xu Qi ‘an and said coldly, “”Let’s behead this female cat burglar,”

This was the worst time that Haotian Taoism had been defamed … Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t help but smile and said seriously, “”Do you know who this person is?”

The female cat burglar shook her head.

“The big boss of the Dao sect and the earth sect.”

“From now on, my thief sect will be changed to the godly thief sect.” The female cat burglar had a strong desire to live.

Did sects change just because they wanted to? Xu Qi ‘an was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Golden Lotus Taoist did not speak anymore, he continued the topic, “”Hand over the secret manual.”

The female cat burglar had a pitiful expression on her face. this is a Virgin technique. I’ve been practicing it since I was young. My master taught me step by step. There are no secret manuals. I’ve been practicing since I was four years old and it took me more than ten years to finish.”

“Didn’t you just say that you entered a brothel at the age of three, received guests at the age of ten, and became master’s exclusive” can’t afford to offend “at the age of fifteen?”

“……. Perhaps Daren heard wrongly?”

Xu Qian said. As expected, not a single punctuation mark could be trusted in the words of such a wily old fox.

“Hand over the disguising technique manual.”

The female cat burglar nodded in resignation. the secret manual is in the closet. I’ll go get it now.

Seeing Xu Qi ‘an nod, she got up and walked to the closet. She took out a bag and said, “”The secret manual is inside.”

Xu Qi ‘an took the bundle. The moment he opened it, a green mist gushed out. Caught off guard, he and the Golden Lotus Daoist priest inhaled a few times and passed out.

The female cat burglar, who had been holding her breath in advance, took out a porcelain bottle from her bag and took the antidote inside. She then took a deep breath and mumbled, ”

“You’re still far from being able to compete with great aunt.”

As she spoke, she kicked Xu Qi ‘an a few times to vent her anger. She reached into his arms and searched for a few times. The Jade Mirror was back.

Suddenly, she felt something hard against her butt. Xu Qi ‘an’s voice came from behind her.”As expected, I should just kill him.”

“Rongrong” lowered her head in shock and found that the silver Gong that had been lying down before was gone.

She didn’t dare to move, knowing that there was a knife on her butt.

I’ve already reminded you. This is a Big Shot from the earth sect. You don’t even know when you fell into the illusion. “Your butt is quite perky,” Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile.

The female cat burglar completely accepted her fate.

“By the way, what’s your name?”

“GE Xiaojing.”

………..

Xu Qi ‘an sealed the female cat burglar GE Xiaojing’s acupuncture points, tied her up, and threw her on the back of the horse. He then bade farewell to the Golden Lotus Taoist priest.

“Be careful,” the orange cat said.

She left at an elegant pace.

Xu Qi ‘an released the reins and was about to ride on his beloved pony when the pony suddenly went crazy. It turned its head, turned 45 degrees, and kicked Xu Qi’ an away with a beautiful back kick.

Then, with a long hiss, he left.

“???”

Xu Qi ‘an chased after it with a dusty face and subdued it before it ran into the pedestrians. After a long time of comfort, the little mare finally became docile.

little mare, don’t you love me anymore? after you were ridden by that old man jinlian, you’ve become fond of the new and tired of the old.

Xu Qi ‘an sat on the horse’s back and thought to himself,”I won’t play tricks anymore. The older the ginger, the wiser it is.”

…….

When they returned to the watchman’s Yamen, Xu Qi ‘an put the female cat burglar in prison and warned the jailer not to do anything unnecessary. He still had use for her.

At this time, the curfew had already been in effect for half an hour, and the sky had also turned dark. However, for a silver Gong, the curfew was nothing.

“Rongrong, you can let her go now, but it’s a curfew, so she can’t leave the inner city. We’ll deal with her tomorrow …”

The next day, Xu Qi ‘an rode to the night watchman’s Yamen. There was already an official waiting at the door. Seeing him, he trotted over and said, ”

“Lord Xu, a group of Jianghu men have come to the Yamen to redeem the girl you brought back yesterday. She is with the silver min Gong.”

He’s only here to redeem her now? If I were a lecherous bully, my child’s bedroom would’ve been filled up several times already … Xu Qi ‘an tutted, ”

“I know.”

[ PS: hahaha, there’s a BUG in Rongrong’s name. It doesn’t match the previous chapter. I changed the previous chapter, but the sad thing is, no one seems to notice it. ]

I suddenly feel like I’m hugging a bear, hahahaha.
