I have a two world clock

Chapter 6 Thief
Qinghe County, the prefecture of Yunzhou in the Great Yin Dynasty.

Li Mu was wearing a long robe, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and carrying two large bags in both hands, appearing in the original bedroom very abruptly.

Behind him was the newly purchased Babu bed. At this time, there was already a little dust on the head of the bed, and there were even traces of being rummaged in the bedroom.

"Is this a burglar at home?"

Li Mu was taken aback, and hastily put down the things in his hands. After careful observation in the bedroom, he found that thieves really entered the room. The hanging money and a few pieces of silver that had been placed in the bedside cabinet before had disappeared. .

There is a huge difference between the time flow rate of modern society and the time flow rate of this world. It seems that one day in the main world is almost equal to one month in the world of the Great Yin Dynasty.

Li Mu stayed in the modern society for a day, but in this world, almost a month has passed.

He hasn't been at home for more than a month, and weeds have grown in the yard, so it's no wonder there are thieves patronizing.

"You have to find some servants quickly!"

After Li Mu put away all the things he brought, he went out immediately.

In such a somewhat chaotic feudal dynasty, it is normal for a family to be burglarized.

As an ordinary commoner from outside, I don't have any fame, even if I report to the official, I guess no one will pay attention to it.

On the contrary, he might be blackmailed by petty officials for reporting to the officials. If the thieves were not caught, he would probably lose some more money.

All kinds of considerations flashed through Li Mu's mind, so he decided to quickly buy a few servants and maids, and then find a housekeeper and guards. As long as there are many people in the yard and some weapons, ordinary thieves will not dare to enter the house. theft.

On West Street in Qinghe County, there is a city of people.

Recently, a plague broke out in a nearby county, and many people died. Many people fled to Qinghe County.

Many people fled with their families, many fled to other places, and many fled to Qinghe County.

Most of the people who fled, because they ran for their lives in a panic, did not have time to move the money, and they were struggling to survive. Some of the men and women who lost their source of livelihood had to sell themselves as slaves in order to survive.

Some women were bought by people from brothels, and some people gritted their teeth and would rather die than become prostitutes. However, there are some literate people who are not short of livelihood and will not suffer from hunger and poverty.

Li Mu had been to the People's Market before, and met many people who put up bids and sold heads, but at that time he had not settled down, so he couldn't buy and sell servants. Now that he has enough money and bought a house, his mentality is naturally very different from the past.

After arriving at the Renshi Market, I saw men and women in ragged clothes standing on the cross street with cattle and horses tied to each other. Humans and animals stood opposite each other, and they all became commodities that could be traded.

A group of men and women have disheveled faces, with hay sticking on their heads. This is what is meant by the so-called selling heads by inserting labels.

Putting a grass on the head means that human life is worthless and can be bought and sold at will, which shows that the situation is miserable.

Li Mu hardened his heart and walked along the street, he saw many old bustards and tortoises, dressed in gold and silver, inspecting the bodies and teeth of prostitutes, just like examining animals.

During the inspection, it was unavoidable to touch the body, which caused many women to scream, and caused the old bustards to giggle. The louder these women screamed, the more panicked their expressions were, and the more happy the big teapots were.

Li Mu shook his head, and continued to observe the street to see if there was a suitable servant to start with.

He is not a saint, and the government will not save these people. He is a visitor from a foreign land, and it is difficult to protect himself, so there is no way to save him.

Now that they can buy a few people as servants, it will be regarded as saving them.

He walked around and shook his head secretly. The prostitutes in this market were either weak or ugly, and almost none of them satisfied Li Mu.

In fact, it was true when I thought about it, it was Li Mu's turn to pick out good-looking girls, and the local gangs or bustards in Qinghe County had already picked them up.

And a strong man, as long as he has the strength and is willing to endure hardships, he will not have to worry about finding a job, and he will not be reduced to the end of selling himself into slavery, and the worst is just begging.

Only when you can't even beg for food, and there is really no hope, will you consider selling yourself as a slave.

Li Mu originally wanted to buy a few beautiful maids to serve him at home, and some strong servants to look after the home, but now it seems that unless he goes to Ren Yazi to buy someone, otherwise he wants to buy a few satisfactory maids and servants. Take your time.

Now leave the market and return to the house.

As soon as he got near the door, he felt that something was wrong. When he came out, the door was locked, but now the door was opened. There was an open carriage parked at the door, and some tables, chairs, benches, and bedding were piled up on the carriage.

Li Mu looked at these things very familiarly, and thought: "Isn't this something in my room...Damn it, this is a thief?"

He quickly reacted, and couldn't help being furious: "The stealing came to me!"

In ancient times, theft was extremely rampant. There were many acts of sneaking doors and picking locks to steal things.

The modern society has been peaceful for a long time, and Li Mu has always felt that this kind of thing is very far away from him, but he did not expect that he had just bought a house in the Great Yin Dynasty and had not lived in it, so he encountered this kind of thing.

The person who picked the lock and opened the door to steal things must be in the same group as the thieves who stole his belongings before. He stepped on the plate and felt that there was no accident, so he pulled things in the carriage so aboveboard.

"Don't tell me you stole my belongings, but now you dare to move things here!"

Li Mu's thoughts turned, he had already figured out what was going on, and immediately drew out the long sword at his waist, cut off the harness of the carriage, then hid the sword behind his back, and walked into the courtyard.

I saw a few young men in the courtyard moving furniture and pots and pans, talking and laughing, walking towards the door.

After seeing Li Mu walking in, the men were taken aback for a moment, and the leader shouted, "Who is it? What are you doing at my house?"

Li Mu laughed anxiously: "Okay, okay! Even the pots and pans are not left behind. It's rare to steal things so clean."

Several men looked at each other in blank dismay, only then did they realize that the owner of the yard had returned.

The embarrassment on the face of the big man in the lead flashed, and then a stern look emerged, he took out a sharp knife with ears from his waist, and strode towards Li Mu: "Boy, we are invited by the master's house to help move, Who are you? Don't talk nonsense! Don't dare to talk too much, I don't recognize people with this knife!"

The other men threw away the things in their hands without hesitation, and walked towards Li Mu at the same time.

Seeing that the leading man drew his knife and threatened him, Li Mu became more and more annoyed: "Fuck, let alone the burglary, and murder!"

The leading man smiled and said: "I have inquired about it. You are a person who just came to Qinghe County. There was a disaster at home. You are alone. You live in this yard and haven't come back for many days. The neighbors around you think that you have encountered an accident and died in the Where. If you die now, no one will know. Hehe, if you are sensible, get out of here and let us take things away..."

When he was speaking, several men had already surrounded Li Mu with swords in their hands.

With one hand behind his back, Li Mu slowly backed away and said, "Oh, what if I don't know people?"

"If you don't know your face, you will die!"

The leading man rushed forward suddenly, and stabbed Li Mu's chest with a sharp knife in his hand: "Surround him!"

Just as the big man was stabbing forward with the sharp knife, Li Mu's palm hidden behind his back suddenly turned in front of his body, a cold light flashed, and the long sword suddenly stabbed forward.

puff!
The big man who was rushing forward was unable to stop, and was pierced through the chest by Li Mu's sword, with an inconceivable look in his eyes: "You..."

Li Mu stabbed out with a sword, then retreated immediately, quickly pulled out the long sword, then turned around, and the long sword drew an arc, cutting towards the necks of several men next to him.

when!
These men seemed to have martial arts skills. After seeing Li Mu stabbing the leader to death with a single sword, they were all startled. The swords in their hands were in front of them, blocking Li Mu's extremely swift sword.

But when they blocked it, they felt that Li Mu's sword was so powerful that their arms were numb from the shock, and all the swords in their hands were blown away by Li Mu.

"I can't even grasp the weapon steadily, and I still want to break into the house and kill people like others!"

After Li Mu slashed out with his sword and chopped off all the weapons of the thieves, he was also surprised, but at this moment he had no time to think about it, since he had already started, there was absolutely no reason to stop, he had to go all out and kill them all!

Puff puff!
In the terrified expressions of these men, he quickly jumped a few times, pierced the air with the long sword in his hand, and instantly beheaded the thieves on the spot.

It wasn't until he landed and stood still that the first leader stabbed to death by him fell to the ground with a bang, which shows how quickly he attacked the enemy just now.

"After practicing Kung Fu for so many years, it finally came in handy today!"

Holding a long sword, Li Mu looked at the blood-splattered corpses in the courtyard, his heart was pounding, he was scared and excited at the same time: "This is killing people? It doesn't seem to be difficult. Is it my martial arts, or they are too useless ?”
