Everyone sat in the courtyard and chatted in the shade. The sky gradually turned completely dark. It was already past eight o’clock in the evening.
Guang, who had been lying in its nest, suddenly ran out. It rushed out of the walls and let out a low roar.
Seeing this, Yang Guang was a little puzzled. He looked at it and said, “What are you shouting for?”
“Bark, bark, bark!”
It would have been better if he hadn’t said anything. Once he spoke, Guang became even more excited. He barked three times at the outdoors, and then rushed out like a meatball!
“This guy, what’s wrong with him!”
Yang Guang was puzzled and followed him out of the door.
However, when he looked out of the door, he immediately saw a figure hurriedly turning into an alley in the village!
“Huh?”
Yang Guang’s eyes tensed up. It turned out that Guang wasn’t barking randomly. There was someone outside the wall just now!
Who came to his house in the middle of the night?
“What’s wrong, Guang?”
After pondering for a moment, he heard Wu Xiaolian’s voice behind him. Yang Guang quickly turned around and said, “It’s nothing, it’s nothing. This fellow has nothing better to do!”
After saying that, he closed the courtyard door and walked back while stretching his waist. “It’s been a tiring day. Let’s rest early, shall we?”
Not wanting to make everyone worry, Yang Guang hid the fact that he saw a figure. He thought to himself, let’s see if you still dare to come tonight. If you come again, I’ll definitely catch you!
After that person was discovered by Guang, he left in a hurry. It was obvious that he had a guilty conscience. If it was in the open, what was there to run for?
Therefore, after he became alert, Yang Guang pretended to let everyone go back to their rooms to rest. However, he decided to raise his vigilance tonight and wait for that person to appear again!
After the girls returned to their rooms, the courtyard returned to silence. Not long after, the lights were all turned off.
Yang Guang’s house and courtyard were completely dark. Guang also returned to his nest and lay down inside, whimpering.
It had eaten too much seafood. Fortunately, this fellow’s digestive ability was strong enough. If it was a puppy, it would be stuffed to death by now.
However, it was not feeling well now. Its stomach was very swollen!
Just as Guang was humming, a figure poked his head out from the south wall. He narrowed his eyes and observed the situation in the courtyard.
Soon, the figure silently climbed over the wall and landed on the soil in the vegetable garden.
The leg of his pants touched the vegetable leaves, making a swishing sound. The figure stopped in his tracks!
He listened attentively and waited for a while, but did not hear any movement. Then, the figure walked forward again.
After walking and stopping, the person carefully walked through the vegetable garden and came to the windowsill.
In this midsummer heat, every household did not close their windows at night. The place where this person was standing now was Wu Xiaolian’s room!
At this moment, in the room, she was holding Yaya in her arms while Xu Ling was lying beside her. The two adults and one child were sleeping soundly!
The room was dark, and the person could not see the situation inside clearly. After standing still, he took out a slender bamboo pipe from his pocket.
He pushed and pulled twice, and a dark red spark appeared inside the bamboo pipe!
As soon as the spark ignited, white smoke immediately rose from the bamboo pipe.
The black figure poked the bamboo pipe through the gap of the screen window, lowered his head and blew twice.
After confirming that the smoke had entered the room, the black figure straightened his body and smiled silently.
However, the smile was still on his face when he felt a gust of wind at the back of his head. He immediately let out a low cry, and instantly shrank his neck!
However, it was useless. The attack that was originally aimed at his neck had hit the back of his head. The black shadow did not even make a sound before it fell to the ground with a thud.
“Bark bark bark!”
Only then did Guang react. It crawled up from its nest and barked twice.
Yang Guang turned around to look at it and said in a low voice, “Scram, what did you do earlier!”
Hearing the displeasure in his tone, Guang quickly crawled back into its nest and did not make a sound.
Looking down at the person on the ground, Yang Guang took out the rope tied around his waist and tied him up in no time!
Just as he was tying the person, the lights in the courtyard lit up.
He looked up and saw Qi Yingxue standing at the door with her mouth agape. Her entire body was frozen.
Seeing that she was wearing a tank top and shorts, and that she was wearing slippers, Yang Guang took a quick glance and said, “Sister, don’t be afraid. I’ve subdued this guy!”
“Who is this?”
Qi Yingxue was not a heavy sleeper. She had heard some movement outside just now, so she groped her way around and crept out.
She thought that if there was a thief in the house, it would not be too late to call for help after she saw the person clearly.
In the end, she did not expect to see Yang Guang and another person lying on the ground.
Yang Guang flipped the person on the ground at this moment and found that he had a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks. He had the face of a traitor, but he did not recognize the person.
Hence, he frowned. Yang Guang raised his head and said to Qi Yingxue, “I don’t recognize him. I don’t know where he came from!”
After saying that, he stood up. “Let’s ignore him for now. Let’s quickly look at my sister-in-law and sister Ling!”
When the black shadow had sprayed smoke into the window, Yang Guang had not seen it clearly, but he had seen the scene of him putting away the bamboo pipe.
Therefore, he felt that this person might have done something bad, so he left this person aside and immediately rushed into the inner room.
The door was not locked. After pushing the door open and entering, Yang Guang came to the bedside and placed his hand on Wu Xiaolian’s pulse.
Fortunately, she was fine. She had just fallen into a deep sleep.
Looking at Yaya and Xu Ling, the two of them were also fine. They did not suffer from some kind of strange poison that was difficult to cure.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Yang Guang turned on the electric light when he saw Qi Yingxue standing at the door. “They were drugged, but they will recover soon. Don’t worry!”
“Oh…”
Qi Yingxue was still a little confused. She nodded blankly and asked, “Do you need my help with anything?”
“No need, I can do it myself!” Yang Guang said and turned around to leave. He went to the well and fetched a bucket of water.
Then, he wet two towels and quickly returned to the house.
After wiping their faces with the cool well water, Xu Ling and Wu Xiaolian slowly woke up.
Yaya, on the other hand, was fine. She reached out to rub her face, turned over and fell asleep again.
Meanwhile, Wu Xiaolian and Xu Ling opened their eyes and saw Yang Guang beside them. The first thing they subconsciously did was to cover their chests!
Wear cooling clothes when you sleep, but don’t get naked!
Yang Guang smiled. “Don’t be nervous. There was a thief in the house just now. Both of you were drugged!”
“How could it be?”

Xu Ling was at a loss. She flipped over and sat up with Wu Xiaolian. “Who did this?”
“I haven’t asked. I was worried that you guys wouldn’t wake up after a long time, so I quickly went to get the well water. I’m going to ask him now!” Yang Guang said this and turned around to leave.
After this ordeal, Mu Xiaowan also woke up. She rubbed her eyes and walked out of the house.
The four women came to the courtyard. When they saw Yang Guang kick the monkey-faced man, the man immediately let out a muffled groan and opened his eyes.
When he saw the lights and saw Yang Guang looking at him with a cold smile, the man knew that the matter had been exposed and that he had failed in his mission!
