Chapter 2005 Silver Was Taken Away

The two brothers came out of the Tutu Temple and walked cautiously towards the government office.

When passing by Qiao's courtyard, Huang Shao couldn't help but look at the buildings in the courtyard.

By this time, Miss Qiao's family should have returned from giving porridge. It would be nice to see her from a distance.

Although I thought it was impossible, after all, the daughter-in-law rarely showed up.

Diao Jun didn't notice Huang Shao's movements. Halfway through, he suddenly felt the urge to urinate and couldn't hold it in anymore.

Seeing that there was no one around, he placed the hay bale with the silver ingots in front of Huang Shao: "Brother Shao, you watch first, I'll be back soon!"

Huang Shao didn't pay attention and just said "oh" subconsciously.

Diao Jun turned around and ran to the bushes not far away, hiding and releasing water.

Huang Shao looked towards the second floor inside the courtyard wall from time to time, hoping to catch a glimpse of his stunning appearance during the day.

This scene appeared in front of Jia Zhengjin, which made him smile.

In fact, Jia Zhengjin deliberately arranged for the silver ingot to be sent to Nuwa, just waiting for such an opportunity.

Seeing Diao Jun running away, Huang Shao was absent-minded and immediately used soul projection to transform into the Leopard Pioneer. Then he used the sorcery of the Leopard Pioneer to transform into a thin man with a wretched appearance and who looked like he was not a good person at first glance.

"Huh!" Nuwa teleported him to the vicinity of Qiao's courtyard, which was not too far from Huang Shao.

Jia Zhengjin was not in a hurry to take action and walked over slowly. When Diao Jun came out after draining the water and could see the scene here, he suddenly accelerated and rushed forward while Huang Shao was not paying attention. He picked up the hay bale and ran away quickly.

"Ah! Catch the thief!!" Diao Jun saw this scene and shouted in fright, "Brother Shao! There is a thief!!"

Huang Shao was startled. He turned around and saw a stranger running away with a bale of hay in his arms. Only then did he realize and hurriedly chased after him.

But I felt strange, why would someone snatch the hay bales? Did he know there was silver in it?

Could it be that the thief had seen Jun'er hiding the money?

No matter what, he must be caught as soon as possible.

Huang Shao spread his legs and chased after him.

While shouting loudly: "Catch the thief!! Catch the thief!!"

Diao Jun also chased after him desperately, shouting along with him.

The two brothers chased them all the way to the intersection, and around the corner they found that the thief who had stolen the money was missing.

This made them panic, and they continued to shout and search desperately.

The shouting caused a commotion, and people living nearby didn't know what was going on and came out to watch the excitement.

Those who were more curious would run along with them.

More than an hour passed, and the thief just disappeared out of thin air and never appeared again.

The two brothers' efforts were in vain, and in the end they had to rest due to physical weakness.

The people from the government took a look and saw that it was Huang Shao and Diao Jun, so they didn't pay attention.

Everyone knows the situation of these brothers.

They were poorer than thieves and had nothing to steal except the rags on their bodies.

Especially when the money was stolen, Huang Shao and Diao Jun did not dare to say that they were originally planning to turn it over to the government to find the owner, but suddenly it was lost. What should they do if it caused a misunderstanding? If the government thought that the two brothers staged this scene and concealed the silver ingots because of greed, two hundred taels would be a serious crime!

So the two brothers only said that they had been robbed of a bale of hay, which attracted everyone's eyes.

Back at the Earth Temple, the two brothers sat together with their heads bowed in silence.

It was originally a good thing. With so many silver ingots handed over to the government, there would be no reward for finding the owner.

Maybe the two of them can have a few full meals.

It's better now, it's all in vain!

I don’t know where the thief came from, but why did he know that there were two hundred silver ingots in the hay bale? Where did he go again?

Huang Shao blamed himself a little and glanced at Diao Jun secretly: "Jun'er, it's my fault! If I hadn't been distracted at the time, I wouldn't have been stolen..."

"Brother Shao, blame me for not holding back." Diao Jun shook his head, "If we had held back at that time, we would have sent the money to the government first, and there would have been no accidents."

"No, it's my fault!" Huang Shao said, "People have three urgent needs, and there's nothing we can do about it. I should have taken a good look at the money at that time, so it wouldn't have been stolen!"

"Brother Shao, don't say that." Diao Jun saw the guilt on his face and said hurriedly, "We didn't expect this kind of thing to happen."

"Hey~" Huang Shao sighed, and then asked doubtfully, "Jun'er, was someone secretly seeing you when you were hiding the money?"

"Why do you say that?"

"The thief must know that there is money in the hay bales. He wouldn't steal the hay bales, right?" Huang Shao said.

"Yes!" Diao Jun thought for a moment, "The thief must know that there is money inside, but... I was very careful and was not discovered..."

"Did you show up on your way back to the city?"

"How is that possible?" Diao Jun shook his head, "I picked up the silver in a deserted place outside the city, and then immediately hid it in a hay bale and brought it in without even the soldiers guarding the city noticing. After that, I returned to the Earth Temple all the way, only for Shao Brother, you have seen it. Later, we will go to the government together, there is no way we will be discovered!"

"How did the thief know?"

"I am not sure as well!"

"Strange! How could there be such a coincidence?" Huang Shao frowned.

While Huang Shao was thinking, Diao Jun's eyes fell on his face, and Brother Jia's words suddenly appeared in his mind.

etc! The thief should have no chance of seeing the silver in the hay bale, let alone the motive to steal it. Could it be that the money was stolen because of Brother Shao's poor destiny?

There seems to be no other explanation!

It's just that the silver ingot is not your own, so the money you picked up will also be affected by the destiny of the poor god?

This had never happened before, and of course he had never picked up silver. This was the first time he experienced this feeling, and Diao Jun felt something strange in his heart.

Perhaps the monk did not lie to him, and Brother Shao's fate of poverty really brought him down.

But how to deal with this matter now? The silver was stolen, and I don't know who the thief is.

Although I have seen his face, he is completely unfamiliar, as if he is not from Qimu Town. He is probably a refugee or a beggar.

If they report to the police, the two brothers may be wronged, thinking that they are acting to embezzle the silver ingots. If they don't report to the police, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack to find the thief with their own strength.

After thinking about it, the two brothers finally decided to pretend that this had never happened.

If they have the ability, of course they hope to recover the silver ingots and send them to the government to find the owner. But now there are so many people, and the thief can't stay in Qimu Town, and he must have fled far away. Although I feel a little uneasy, I still pretend that nothing happened, anyway, it's not my money. I can help if I can, but I can't help, at least I don't want to get into trouble with the lawsuit.

Besides, the most important thing for the two brothers now is how to fill their stomachs.

After chasing the thieves for so long and consuming a lot of physical strength, I am afraid that eating such a small amount of wild vegetables will not be effective. We must get some more food, otherwise we will be too hungry to sleep at night!

After cooking and eating the wild vegetables, the two brothers went out of the city and went up the mountain together.
