Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

Chapter 505 Robbery

"If you can recognize it so easily, then the person who carved this thing must have smashed his own sign to pieces!"

Xu Changping raised the corners of his mouth, narrowed his eyes, stared at Yang Xiaoyue's every move with a smile on his face, and slowly spoke.

He had specifically asked the system to create a jade pendant that was extremely similar to the original. The traces left by the passage of time were also carefully imitated.

"Okay, okay, the person you found is really capable, okay? Then I will take this jade pendant to that person tomorrow morning."

Yang Xiaoyue was too lazy to even call out the words "Third Uncle" at this moment. Although she could see that the man in front of her looked quite similar to the original owner's biological father, the impression this man's behavior left on her was not a good one.

"Well, just give it to him and it will be fine. By the way, I heard you say before that you once played with the map in your mother's hand. Do you still have any impression of the content on it?"

Xu Changping's eyes were always on the jade pendant. Suddenly, as if he thought of something important, he looked up at Yang Xiaoyue and asked anxiously.

"Oh, I really can't remember this at all!" Yang Xiaoyue spread her hands helplessly, shaking her head and replied.

Yang Xiaoyue had no memory of what her original father did for a living, but she only vaguely remembered having seen a large number of maps of various types at home when she was a child.

"In that case, then you can give this jade pendant to her. As for the one that originally belonged to your mother, you should keep it well for now and don't carry it with you." After a little thought, Xu Changping seriously instructed Yang Xiaoyue.

Since Yang Xiaoyue didn't want to talk about the map, he didn't ask any further.

Xiaoyue put away the warm jade pendant she was originally wearing, then picked up the jade pendant that Xu Changping brought back, and gently hung it on her fair and slender neck.

After doing all this, Yang Xiaoyue inadvertently raised her head and when her eyes swept across the wall clock, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh! It's already so late, I have to hurry to Master's house to pick up Xiao Mi."

Hearing this, Xu Changping also glanced at the wall clock, then stood up without hesitation, and said to Yang Xiaoyue with a smile: "I'll go with you. It's really late anyway, so let's just find a place outside to have dinner."

Yang Xiaoyue readily agreed to Xu Changping's proposal without any thought. After all, it was already late.

Xu Changping stood up and walked to the door, picked up the coat that was hanging on the wall when he came back, and put it on.

At the same time, Yang Xiaoyue stood up and walked towards the door, preparing to go home to change clothes.

After both of them had packed up, they left the courtyard one after the other.

The night sky was full of twinkling stars, like dazzling gems inlaid in the vast sky. The soft moonlight fell on the ground, illuminating the path for the two people.

While pedaling, Yang Xiaoyue kept thinking about the jade pendant and the map in her mind.

For some reason, she always had a strong premonition that the mysterious Third Master would never give up so easily.

At the same time, although Xu Changping seemed to be riding his bike attentively, a sense of vigilance had already quietly risen in his heart.

He didn't know why, but from the moment he left the house, he had a vague feeling that there seemed to be a pair of eyes hiding in the dark and silently watching them, as if someone was quietly following them...

Just as they arrived at the entrance of the alley where Master Guan's house was, a clear, pleasant and energetic shout came into Yang Xiaoyue's ears.

As soon as she heard it, she knew it was the cheerful sound made by Xiao Mi, and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

After stepping into the yard, Xiao Mi quickly pounced on Yang Xiaoyue and hung on her thighs.

Guan Ke, who was standing nearby, looked at the heartwarming scene and couldn't help but smile kindly. He said, "This little fellow has been fidgeting since it got dark. He has been looking out the door, eagerly hoping that you would come soon."

When Yang Xiaoyue heard what Guan Ke said, she bent down and held Xiao Mi in her arms. She looked at Guan Ke with gratitude in her eyes and said softly, "I am really sorry to trouble you, Master Guan, today."

Guan Ke naturally understood the deep meaning of Yang Xiaoyue's words. He smiled and waved his hand, responding in a relaxed tone: "Oh, these are just trivial matters, don't take them to heart. Xiao Mi is my last disciple."

Yang Xiaoyue and Guan Ke chatted for a while, and the atmosphere between them was very harmonious.

After a while, Xu Changping saw that the time was almost up, so he said to Guan Ke: "Master, it's too late, I will take them back first."

After saying goodbye to Guan Ke, the two of them pushed their bicycles and took Xiao Mi out of the Wumen courtyard and came to the bustling street.

Just as they were about to go to a nearby restaurant for dinner, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them like a ghost, blocking their way.

This person was wrapped tightly from head to toe, with only a pair of eyes flashing with cold light showing.

He lowered his voice and said slowly in a sinister voice: "Hand over all the valuables on you to me, otherwise..."

Faced with this sudden situation, Yang Xiaoyue did not panic. She hugged Xiao Mi to her body, narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked the other party coldly: "Who are you? How dare you rob in broad daylight!"

The mysterious masked man raised the corners of his mouth slightly and let out a chilling sneer. Then he reached out from behind his back and pulled out a gleaming dagger. He waved it in the air a few times. The sharp blade flashed a chilling light in the sunlight.

At this moment, Xu Changping quickly flashed to the front and steadily blocked the opponent's way forward.

He looked sternly and fearlessly into the masked man's eyes. He said in a cold voice, "Robbery is a serious crime. Do you really want to be shot for this?"

However, the masked man seemed to ignore Xu Changping's warning. He glared at Xu Changping fiercely and responded with gritted teeth:

"Whether I get shot or not has nothing to do with you. Stop talking nonsense here. If you are smart, hand over all the valuables on you. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless. I will let you taste the feeling of being stabbed in the back... er, no, it's being stabbed in the back and out the back!"

In this tense atmosphere, Xiao Mi, who was hiding in Yang Xiaoyue's arms, couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard that the robber actually said the wrong lines at the critical moment and said the harsh words in the wrong order.

After hearing the laughter, Xu Changping couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xiao Mi, who was laughing with her eyes narrowed and without any fear in her eyes, and a helpless smile appeared on his face.

He parked his bike and walked straight towards the robbers.

"You...you...what on earth do you want to do? Stop right there!"

Seeing Xu Changping's bold move, the robbers suddenly panicked and even began to stutter.

He secretly groaned in his heart, this was completely different from the scenario he had imagined!

According to common sense, when ordinary people see a shining dagger, shouldn't they be frightened to the point of turning pale, trembling all over, and then obediently throwing their belongings over?

How come this person in front of me is not afraid at all and instead takes the initiative to come forward?
