Killer and ** are known as the two oldest professions in history because they satisfy people's oldest desires and catharsis.

Although Cao Hong was praised like this, he was a little happy, but he did not support this statement very much. Because in his opinion, the thief should have appeared at the beginning.

Maslow's theory puts survival needs first, and illegally reaching out to take other people's property in order to eat and wear warmth can probably be traced back to the Stone Age. The ancient book "Guangyun" says: stealing is also stealing. There is also a sentence in "Huainanzi" that "Chu is good at being a thief." Even the idiom "chicken crowing and dog stealing" appears from this era.

So Cao Hong was very puzzled why modern Buddhas (thieves) all regarded Shi Qian as their ancestors?

No matter what, Cao Hong was very happy about the success of the plan. Because in his opinion, in places without professional intelligence, the information provided by the thief was relatively accurate.

The small man walked in front with a huge yellow goat on his back. He was already thin, and his hands, feet and body skeleton were extremely thin. Not long after, he heard him breathing heavily.

Cao Hong followed slowly with the package in his hand. Watching the little man gritting his teeth and insisting on walking, he became a little interested in the Buddha of this era.

Observing the other person by modern standards, this little man is obviously born to be a Buddha.

He is thin, but his legs are slender and flexible. He walks quickly, moves silently, and has a light weight and speaks less. Even on the dirt road, he will only leave a layer of shallow footprints, which will not be found without careful observation. He looks like he is thrown into the crowd and can't be found immediately. It is extremely convenient to escape.

The clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker. When we were about to reach the city gate, it began to drizzle.

Cao Hong thought he was going to leave the city, but who knew that he turned a corner at the city gate and entered another arched door not far away.

"You live here?" He turned into the door and saw a pile of firewood, and then a small house built with wood that he got from somewhere.

Cao Hong was a little surprised. It was not that the child was homeless and miserable, but that the boy would use the abandoned city gate to build his own house.

This is a rare place to shelter from the wind and rain. It seems that this kid is a rare smart person.

"Yeah." The little man nodded, and did not open the door and entered the house. Instead, he directly placed the yellow sheep on the stack of firewood, then made licorice from the side and pressed it on it, turning around and said, "My name is Mi, come with me!"

Mi turned around and was about to go out, Cao Hong said, "You just put the yellow sheep here? Are you afraid that you will be taken away when you come back?"

Mi expressed his calm expression and said lightly: "It's raining today, most of them won't go out. Besides, there are few people here who will come here, so there will be no problem! We should move quickly. Today, the sky is so dark and so quickly, I'm afraid the rain will not be lighter in a while." Cao Hong nodded, stopped talking, and trotted all the way behind Mi.

Mi is obviously a habitual thief. He knows very well when it is the best time to take action. His mind is quick. If there weren't so few thieves at this time and he hadn't had the idea of ​​gang committing crimes more efficiently, he would probably have made a career.

The rain in early summer also brings a bit of spring coolness, reducing the heat of the human body one by one.

The two of them ran for about twenty minutes in the gradually heavy rain. They were so twisted that they didn't know how far they had run before they stopped outside a yard wall.

"It's right here?" Cao Hong asked with his hand wiping the water on his face.

"That's right!" Mi nodded, and ignored the rainwater flowing like a stream from her thick bun on her face, saying, "I don't know very well what this place is. I only know that different people will send horses every three or five days, ranging from a dozen or two, and will not refuse anyone. Every two months, a group of troops will come to pick up all the horses."

Cao Hong was shocked and asked quickly: "Are all the war horses sent?"

Mi looked at Cao Hong in confusion, shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Cao Hong was stunned and heard Mi continue, "I don't know what war horses are. I only know that the horses sent here are better than what I saw in other places. Even the horses used by the expensive families in the city are not as good as those used here."

Cao Hong nodded and laughed at himself: What's wrong with him? Before he knew it, he regarded him as a modern Buddha.

"When did the last time the army came?"

"About five days ago!" Mi stood up and stuck her whole body against the courtyard wall to start fumble.

Cao Hong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Since that's the case, are you sure there is still a horse in it?"

"Of course, three days ago, I saw someone sending five horses in with my own eyes." Mi almost pressed her face against the wall, her eyes wide open.

Cao Hong felt a little weird. Looking at Mi recalling his series of behaviors in his mind, he suddenly said with an inspiration: "You originally wanted to steal these horses?"

"How do you know?" Mi raised her head, looked at Cao Hong with a surprised expression on her face, and then stuck it to the wall again, saying, "I have been preparing for a long time, and today is the best time."

Cao Hong was silent for a moment and said, "At the beginning, will they reduce the guards?"

"That's right!" Mi did not hide it. It seemed that Cao Hong had become his own person at the moment of completing the yellow sheep transaction. "I don't know why, every half month after the horse was taken away, it was the time for the guards to have the least and most metabolic effect, especially when it was rainy like this, even if it was not visible to anyone."

Cao Hong's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself: It turns out that he is born to be the material of Buddha.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. The raindrops hit the muddy streets and splashed large pieces of muddy ideas. Cao Hong subconsciously hid to the side and supported his hands on the wall. Unexpectedly, the courtyard wall seemed to suddenly disappear. Cao Hong staggered and fell into it.

Mi was slightly stunned and said, "So it's there!"

"Damn, this is your backup plan?" Cao Hong got up and touched the mud on his face.

"Yes, it took a lot of time to make it." Mi picked up a piece of wall from the ground and handed it to Cao Hong, saying, "This courtyard wall is too high, and people come and go without any obstacles, but horses cannot get out. The only door to enter and exit is guarded day and night. If you want to succeed, you must think of another way."

Cao Hong looked at the thin wall in his hand, glanced at the cover that was connected to the courtyard wall, and there was no flaw at all, and his mouth twitched: Your sister, this is not a thief, it clearly shows the first big thief in history.

Shaking his head, throwing away the wall, and asking, "Since you are ready, why should you get a share of my pie?"

"It's just a good idea! Here!" Mi Si didn't care about the heavy rain at all, so she walked away. "In such weather, I can handle up to three horses by myself, and no matter how many, it will seriously delay my speed. Instead of leaving the remaining horses here, it's better to use them for some meat!"

Cao Hong smiled and said, "More importantly, you need a scapegoat. After the incident, you will give these obviously energetic owners a clear target to pursue! That's right, you are very smart. Such a smart person cannot have a surname. Without family-style knowledge and knowledge accumulation, it is impossible to cultivate a person like you."

Mi paused for a moment and said, "You are not simple either. Although you dress properly, you always feel out of place in your speech. You are not from Qin, are you very curious about my surname?"

Cao Hong shook his head and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not interested! The purpose of my coming here is to get a horse. As for how the horse came from, who provided it, and what consequences it would have, I don't care!"

Mi turned his head, looked at Cao Hong silently for a while, nodded, and turned around and said, "In fact, I need an assistant!"

"As long as I can do it, there is no problem!" Cao Hong nodded. Cao Hong really didn't care about scapegoats and other things. His task was only one month in total, and based on the current stage of information transmission speed, when they found the traces, he had already returned to the present world.

Judging from the distance shown in the book, Jing Ke has run nearly 150 kilometers, and there are still more than twenty days left in the remaining mission, and it is necessary to catch up with the horse. Therefore, Cao Hong, who has always been known for his caution, does not care about these details.

The yard is very empty. Except for a few trees in the corner, there are haystacks in other places. At this time, they were bathing in the heavy rain under the cover of the oil cloth. The ground in the yard is flat and it seems that it has been put into place with great effort. There are two large stables on the side, and the mangers are amazingly long, so there is absolutely no problem with loading a thousand horses.

"There!" Mi pointed in one direction. Cao Hong looked in a narrow direction and saw that there were more than a dozen horses gathered in the corner of the stable on the left, yellow, white, black and various colors. At this time, most of them were calmly lowering their heads to eat grass and turning a blind eye to the heavy rain outside.

When Cao Hong saw the horse, he felt much more relaxed. He calmed down and looked around carefully for a while, nodded and said, "I didn't see anyone, let's go!"

The two trotted all the way and rushed directly into the stable.

The horses were getting closer and closer, and just when Cao Hong decided to get the horse and flash it, he was thundered by the scene in front of him.

"What's going on?" Cao Hong stared at Mi, pointed hard at the horses locked up by a huge metal cage in the stable, and asked loudly.

Mi was very calm and said, "This is why I said I needed an assistant!"

Cao Hong glared at him for a long time, and saw that Mi had no intention of blushing, and was too lazy to pay attention to it. He turned around and observed the huge metal cage.

While looking at it, Cao Hong muttered in his heart: This is so weird, so weird!

From ancient times to the present, I have never heard of using metal cages to hold horses. Although special containers are used when transporting elephants, lions, tigers and other beasts in modern times, metals in this era are super rare items. Besides, the Qin State was fighting at this time, and it was not built into weapons and sent to the battlefield, but it was brought here to imprison horses. This is simply unreasonable!
