Chapter 1589: The Thieves Are Planning To Make A Move (5)
When the notification letter of the Silver Hands appeared in front of the gate of the City Lord Residence of The Rising Sun City, the whole city was stirred up.
Nobody knew when the notice was put at the entrance of the City Lord Residence, but the mark of the Silver Hands was recognized by all.
For a while, it blew up the pot in The Rising Sun City.
The notification letter included five treasures, and the tone of the notice was so very arrogant that it instantly let The Rising Sun City's people go wild.
This Silver Hands were a bit too bold!
How dare they run into their city and give such provocation? Did they really think that The Rising Sun City was just a nobody?
Without waiting for Shen Yanxiao's instructions, the demons and the people of The Rising Sun City automatically began to form a search brigade. Anyone who saw suspicious signs would immediately investigate it, and they also started to patrol outside the City Lord Residence all 24 hours.
The entire City Lord Residence was surrounded by three layers of security inside and outside.
Inside the City Lord Residence, Shen Yanxiao sat lazily in a chair with a tray of grapes in her hand, eating happily. Sitting around her were Qi Xia, Tang Nazhi, Yang Xi and Lan Fengli.
A few days ago, Li Xiaowei had boarded a ship to the Moon God Continent with Yan Yu.
"Qi Xia, I think you should change your name. You should not be called Qi Xia, you should be called Wuya Zui![1]" Tang Nazhi looked at Qi Xia with an evil smile. This fox fooled him a few days ago to help him write the gift list. He wrote most of the night and almost broke his hand.
Qi Xia raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "Then you should also change your name, Mr. Baizi.[2]"
Tang Nazhi's face went red.
That night, Qi Xia tricked him into writing the list of gifts. But because Young Master Tang was so sleepy could not endure it, he wrote down many wrong words with one wave of his hand. And now, he was being mocked by Qi Xia, this one bad friend, because of this.
"That was an accident! I was sleepy that day." Tang Nazhi protested. This was a great stain on his life!
"Practice makes perfect. If the words are well written, they can be neat even if they are smeared. How long has it been since you touched a pen? How could you fail at copying the list of presents from the four countries correctly?" Qi Xia looked at Tang Nazhi with a smile and didn't mind revealing his shortcomings at all.
Tang Nazhi grunted, "I'm not a scholar. Touch what pen, ah?" Sir, my hand is used to hold the sword to protect my loved ones and defend my country, ah!
He had a lot of better ambitions!
"Having a little knowledge is a dangerous thing." Yang Xi sighed softly.
"..." Tang Nazhi became even more depressed.
Shouldn't they be talking about how to deal with the Silver Hands? Why was the conversation about him again?!
This bunch of bastards, were they going to get unwell all over if they could not make fun of him every day!?
"I'm ignoring you both!" Tang Nazhi acted like a tsundere! He turned his head to Shen Yanxiao, who was eating grapes quite happily, and said, "Little Xiao, these Silver Hands have stepped on your face. How can you still act as if this has nothing to do with you at all?"
Could you show some courage?
People had already set their mind on her little vault, and she was still in the mood to eat grapes!
Shen Yanxiao blinked her eyes and swallowed the grapes in her mouth. She calmly said, "What shall I do then?" Learn from the people and demons in the city, and patrol everywhere?
"You also have to be prepared! As far as I know, the Silver Hands have never failed to do their work. The notice has already been sent. If they succeed, how humiliating would that be." Tang Nazhi was indignant.
"Prepared for what? The state treasuries of the four countries had been guarded tightly, yet still they were reduced to that state. What ought to be lost will be lost; let them do as they wish." Shen Yanxiao shrugged her shoulders and was not at all infected by the hot blood of Tang Nazhi.
"Then, we will just let them steal?" Tang Nazhi stared at Shen Yanxiao. When did this little girl become so generous?
