Chapter 260 Money was stolen
Chapter 260 Money was stolen
They asked for some hot water, washed up, and then lay down on the bed and fell asleep without knowing what was happening.
After practicing the next day, the two went downstairs to have breakfast.
I ordered three baskets of steamed buns, a bowl of porridge, and a few plates of pickles.
Sitting in the corner eating happily.
"Hey, have you heard? There's another fight in the south. I heard the imperial court lost again, hundreds of thousands of people were killed or injured. I heard the blood flowed like a river, and the sky turned red. It's so tragic."
"Tsk, the imperial court has suffered so many defeats in the past two years. Every time after a defeat, they have to increase taxes, which are passed on to us ordinary people. I think if this continues, it would be better for us to become bandits!"
"Hush, you are asking for death by talking about this! I actually think the North is pretty good. Although we have to fight with the Hu people every winter, they have never been able to break through the pass..."
When Zhou Guo and Zhou Dacang heard the previous words, they frowned at the same time. They looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes. They didn't know whether they were still alive.
Zhou Dacang suddenly couldn't even eat the delicious buns. When the old lady was leaving, he promised that he would find his two brothers back in this lifetime, either alive or dead. This news was undoubtedly like a club hitting him on the head. Could he still find his two brothers back?
When Zhou Guo thought of her father, she had the impression that he was always smiling. On the day he left, he touched her head and said he would bring her some delicious food. This father was so similar to her father in her previous life.
Is it really true that I can’t come back?
The two of them finished their tasteless breakfast and sat for a while listlessly.
Zhou Guo looked at the gradually bustling streets outside the door and the noisy crowd, forced himself to stand up, and said to Zhou Dacang: "Let's go, uncle, we still have to look for someone."
Things have to be done one by one. You can't just sit there and worry about something you heard. Even if you sit here for a day or a year, it will be useless.
Zhou Dacang stood up and the two of them walked out, this time in a different direction.
I didn't even have the mood to look at the delicious food along the way, but some of these ignorant people came to my door.
As Zhou Guo was walking, he was bumped hard by someone. The other person ran away without even raising his head.
She immediately felt something was wrong and felt her arms, and sure enough, the small purse was gone.
When I go out, I always carry two wallets, one in the bag in front of me and one in my arms.
I opened the bag and looked inside, the money was still there.
Zhou Dacang asked: "What's wrong? What's missing?"
The boy has never experienced such dangers in the world and doesn't know that if a thief touches you, the valuables on you will change hands.
Zhou Guo pursed her lips, looked at him, and said a little aggrievedly: "Uncle, my money is gone, it was stolen!"
"What?!" Zhou Dacang was shocked. "Who stole your money? When did it disappear?"
I subconsciously looked around and felt that everyone looked like a thief!
Then he thought of something and said in surprise: "Someone bumped into you just now, could it be that person?"
Zhou Guo nodded, "It's probably true. Let's go and chase him!"
She had to get her money back no matter what. It was given to her by her mother and master. It was her life's hard-earned money. How could she let it fall into the hands of a thief?
He turned around and ran after him.
Zhou Dacang followed closely behind, but his kung fu was never as good as Zhou Guo's, not to mention the best light kung fu that Zhou Guo was proud of. In the blink of an eye, he was left behind.
Sweat immediately broke out on his forehead. In such a big city, if someone was lost, where would he go to find him? He hasn't found one yet, and now this one is lost.
The only thing in Zhou Guo's eyes and heart at this moment was the stolen purse, which still had a lot of change in it. They had eaten so many delicious foods on a street yesterday, and it only cost them more than two hundred coins in total. The money in it was enough to buy all the snack stalls on the street yesterday.
Recalling what the man was wearing, he was about the same height as my uncle, wearing a gray, inconspicuous suit. He kept his head down, and I didn't see even half of his face from head to toe.
But the shifty look left a deep impression on her after just one glance.
It only took half a cup of tea and after turning two streets, I saw people in front of me.
This guy probably looked down on the two of them. After he succeeded, he was in no hurry to leave. He looked sneaky as if he was looking for his next target.
Sure enough, this guy used the same trick again. When he saw a man who was dressed quite richly and had a purse hanging around his waist, he deliberately squeezed up to him, and when he got the money, he left in a hurry.
She was about to remind him when she saw the man frowning and cursing. Other people around him also suffered. An old lady who was passing by was also scolded at her age, "Go away, you old fool. You have soiled my clothes. Ten of you are not enough to compensate for it. What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I will dig out your eyeballs. If you make me angry, you will be in trouble!"
Zhou Guo frowned, moved his feet, and a stone shot out.
"Ouch~ Who, who is it? Who is so bold as to plot against your grandfather? If I knew who it was, I would tear your tendons and skin you alive, and make your whole family die miserably! Ouch~"
There were people all around watching the show.
Zhou Guo didn't even look at him and started to chase after him.
This guy was strolling leisurely on another street, visiting every small stall, looking very leisurely. Seeing that he stayed at the antique stall for a long time, Zhou Guo narrowed his eyes.
Half a cup of tea later, she followed the people into a small alley.
This alley is only about half a zhang wide, and the walls on both sides are almost two zhang high. Well, it seems to be a dead end.
Tsk, did he lead her here on purpose?
Sure enough, the guy stopped, turned around, and looked her up and down with a choking smile on his face. "Tsk tsk, little brother, you are really brave. You followed me all the way. What, do you want to rob me?"
Look, what does it mean to blame someone else? Zhou Guo really opened her eyes. She didn't waste any words, raised her chin, and said lightly: "Give me back my things."
The other party seemed to have heard a joke, and laughed so hard that he doubled over. He pointed at Zhou Guo and said, "Your stuff? How could I have your stuff? I think you have my stuff. You thief, when did you steal my stuff and put it on yourself? Hand it over quickly if you know what's good for you, or I'll have to search it myself."
Zhou Guo raised an eyebrow, "You try it."
This attitude made the other party stunned, and then looking at Zhou Guo, a small person, he finally felt it was ridiculous, "Since you say so, then I won't be polite."
He walked forward slowly with a smile on his face.
