During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, my great-grandfather's cousin Wu Xunnan was working as a catcher in the Huaiyin Governor's Palace, and (equivalent to the current criminal police captain) was ordered to arrest Cao Gui, a thief from Jiangyang. But many times he failed and was punished by the governor, and he was miserable. Cao Guiliu committed crimes, and there were twenty or thirty bandits under his command, so that there was no peace in the northwest region of Huaiyin. For this reason, Wu Xunnan returned to his hometown several times to discuss with his brothers in the clan how to arrest bandits.

Cao Gui's family lives in Yuan Dawan, there are four brothers, all bandits, his mother is still there, he rarely shows up, and he has a secret code for connecting with the bandits, and he is impermanent.

My great-grandfather (Wu Gunan) conspired with my cousin (Wu Jiuyu) to help Wu Xunnan capture Cao Gui.

One day, the brothers went to Huaiyin together, passing by Yuan Dawan, and saw that a group of people on the road were flocking to the family, and they inquired only to know that Cao Gui's mother was going to celebrate her fiftieth birthday today, and many people went to eat a birthday banquet. When Wu Jiuyu heard this, he immediately thought of the fact that his cousin was worried about the arrest of Cao Gui a few days ago. So the two of them discussed that the news would be immediately transmitted to Huaiyin to arrest Wu Xunnan, which was a good time to arrest Cao Gui and his gang. After that, Wu Gunan went to Huaiyin to report the matter, and Wu Jiuyu squatted on the spot.

Huaiyin is not far from Yuan Dawan, and at noon, dozens of catchers gathered to meet two miles away from Cao Gui.

Wu Jiuyu disguised himself as a passing Taoist priest and went straight to Cao Gui's house, and when the banquet was about to start, he said that he wanted to see the son of this birthday star. The four Cao Gui brothers didn't know what was going on, so they hurriedly came out to ask. The Taoist priest said, "Today I was passing by here, just as your mother was celebrating her birthday, and I found a big fox running to your house. Please come out and let me meet you. So someone invited the birthday boy out. Wu Jiuyu looked at it and said to Cao Gui: She is a fox, I see that he has a tail behind his buttocks, if you don't believe it, let her show it to everyone! When Cao Gui's brothers heard this, they were all dumbfounded, and they couldn't speak for a long time, Wu Jiuyu asked Cao Gui's mother to take off her pants and look at her tail. Suddenly, someone shouted"Everyone quickly beat the stinky Taoist priest to death with a stick. At this time, Cao Gui thought back and led a few brothers to arrest the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest turned around and ran out, shouting"Come and catch the monsters, this group is full of monsters! ”

Wu Jiu paid out of the gate, and a group of people followed closely behind. At this time, dozens of arresters in Huaiyin caught up head-on, and caught the Cao Gui brothers and all the bandits outside the door.

The habitual bandits who had plagued the Quartet for many years were captured once, and the Huaiyin Governor's Mansion gave Wu Xunnan and the others a great reward. At the same time, he also rewarded the two brothers of the Wu clan who had made a contribution to capturing the bandits this time.
