stealing from you

Tianyou City has not been very peaceful recently, and guards can be seen patrolling everywhere in the streets and alleys.

It was clearly in the imperial city, at the foot of the emperor, but there was a theft case. It is said that it was still lost in the emperor's bedroom, which made the world laugh.

The emperor was furious, and posted an imperial list offering rewards for the thieves, and ordered that no small thief in the city be spared, and if caught, he would be punished on the spot, killing chickens as an example to monkeys.

Ye Zhou passed the corner where the arrest warrant was posted, and stopped, feeling that the world is getting worse, the guards are so strict that a little thief slipped in, and it's still the emperor's palace, isn't it a big joke.

"Excuse me, excuse me!" Before he had passed the corner of the alley, he heard the sound of messy footsteps.

Ye Zhou turned sideways slightly, and two thin figures quickly ran past him, followed by a group of officers and soldiers.

These days, officers and soldiers can't even catch up with the two children, let alone the thief who doesn't even have a portrait on the arrest warrant.

Ye Zhou, who was supposed to walk away, sighed, and suddenly stood at the entrance of the alley, with a gentle breeze blowing head-on.

……

"Catch them!"

The officers and soldiers pursued all the way, and finally bet the two children who stole the buns at the gate of the Town God's Temple.

The two children were dirty, and one of them was barefoot, and his toes were blue from the cold in the twelfth lunar month.

"Liansheng, you go! I can't run anymore."

"Shut up! Let's go together."

"None of you can leave."

Seeing that the officer and soldier's sword was about to fall, the barefoot boy gritted his teeth, arched his body, and rammed him with all his might, knocking his head on the head, forcing the tall and burly man dizzy.

This move of killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred did not have much effect, scarlet blood dripped from Lian Sheng's head.

"Liansheng, Liansheng!" Mu Liang who was beside him was crying.

"It seems that your parents are not good people because you have been doing stealthy things at a young age." The officers and soldiers taunted them, with the gleaming big knife resting on Liansheng's neck, who was unconscious, and the two children did not dare to move.

"The official's words are too much." The well-dressed Ye Zhou appeared in the empty place.

"What are you?" Several blades turned to face Ye Zhou.

Ye Zhou smiled: "It's just a grassroots."

"Then hurry up, get in the way of official duties, do you want to end up with them?"

Ye Zhou walked up to the officers and soldiers, within an inch of the sharp edge of the knife, he talked and laughed freely: "The official said that these two children are stealing, it is only natural, but their parents should not know, the official can't see it. Is it a refugee in the city?"

Refugees, among the people in the imperial city, are beggars from other places.

"You still dare to talk nonsense in front of us, brothers, teach him a lesson!"

The blade changed into a fist and kick, and swung towards Ye Zhou.

Ye Zhou took a step back, then turned and jumped up, his slender legs swept across the faces of the officers and soldiers, kicking down a row.

The scene where the teeth and blood and saliva flew out was so beautiful, Mu Liang covered his eyes with one hand, and shivered while holding Lian Sheng's arm.

A while later, when the stewards of the palace arrived, mourners were everywhere at the gate of the Town God's Temple.

"Master Ye!" The steward ran over out of breath.

"Uncle Yuan, who is in charge of these officials?" Ye Zhou asked.

The steward was taken aback for a moment, and replied: "Looking at the badge, it should belong to the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"Oh..." Ye Zhou smiled openly, "Even two unarmed children can't be released. The punishment department's style is too cruel, don't you think?"

Uncle Yuan understood, took out a token, and angrily said to the officers and soldiers on the ground: "This is a distinguished guest of Prince Lian's mansion, you blind slaves, why don't you go away?"

The officers and soldiers fled in despair, and disappeared as soon as they smoked.

Mu Liang changed his arms to his back, careful not to be discovered, and prepared to leave with Liansheng.

But Ye Zhou didn't want Ye Zhou to stop them: "Do you still want to run?"

Mu Liang knelt down tremblingly: "Please, don't kill us!"

Ye Zhou walked up to him and said, "Hand over what your friend took."

Mu Liang stared at Ye Zhou with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Lian Sheng was awake, he weakly raised his hand, holding a piece of jade pendant in his bloody hand.

"Uncle Yuan." Ye Zhou called out.

Yuan Bo immediately took the jade pendant, wiped it clean, and tied it back to Ye Zhou's waist.

Ye Zhou stared at Muliang and Liansheng for a while, then said calmly, "Break each of them with one hand, and let them remember that other people's things should not be taken casually."

Yuan Bo responded, and the guards behind him surrounded the two children.

"No, no!" Mu Liang was almost lying on the ground, the pity on his back slipped off, and he supported his head weakly, Ye Zhou's figure was like a rakshasa in his blood-stained eyes.

The child's arm was very slender, and it would break with some strength. Liansheng watched Mu Liang's hand being pulled over, and bit the guard's hand fiercely without knowing where the strength came from.

With a scream, Mu Liang was able to escape.

The vision is gradually blurred, and the final picture is the back of Mu Liang running farther and farther, and the blue sky above his head after the world is spinning.
