Dragon Pattern Roll Set
Chapter 281 [Fanwai · Discovery on the day of the birthday banquet]
The spectacle of the stars falling that night finally became a myth, passed on from word to mouth, and became a story that has always been praised.
Bai Yuelin and Bai Yueyun, brothers and sisters with great affection, leave it to future generations...or this beautiful gift to the people of the world, and at the same time clear up the rumors that the Bai family became prosperous by cursing the underworld.On the contrary, Bai Yueyun's few words of blessing to the common people in the world greatly improved the status of this witch in the hearts of the Jianghu people.
Of course, it was Gongsun who finally persuaded the gangsters to give up the "curse" theory, and talked to them in detail about the possible poisoning of their ancestors.
Everyone in the underworld promised Gongsun to go back to investigate the experience of their ancestors first, and then listen to his arrangement to go to Changzhou Mansion to wait for detoxification.
The third Gan is still nagging, but seeing that Gan Yue is not as repulsive as before, Gan Yue gets along with him more naturally than when they met before.
Only then did everyone understand why they refused to follow Ganyue when the third child died earlier, because that Ganyue was pretended by the skeleton monster.Don't look at Ganyue as a fool, but at a glance, he can see that Ganyue has some "problems", so he is afraid and refuses to follow.
The problem of the underworld has been solved, and the rest is Hei Lian and his gang.
Hei Lian doesn't know what kind of sect he is, but the man behind the scenes that has been found so far is the skeleton monster.
The skeleton boss was very cooperative. Frankly speaking, he killed the boss and second brother himself, and he also planted ice seeds in the corpse to destroy the corpse.He explained everything clearly and matched the case. The only thing he couldn't explain was - where did Bai Xia's two bowls of blood go.
According to the explanation of the skeleton monster himself—in order to divert everyone's attention and mislead the direction of the investigation, he poured out the blood, in other words, he was playing tricks.
The words of the skeleton monster can indeed be explained, but at the same time, it also has the meaning of taking all the blame and cutting off all the back roads. I always feel that it is not that simple.
It's a pity that the old man and Ding Wu both killed him in one bite. He is the leader of Hei Lian... Besides, except for the whereabouts of Bai Xia's two bowls of blood, they couldn't provide any better evidence to prove that there are other people behind them Instigated, so, can only give up temporarily.
Bai Yutang has always been brooding about it, not knowing what to do with whoever took his father's blood away.Logically speaking, their Bai family doesn't have any special blood. Could it be related to Bai Yueyun back then?
In addition, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao have always been curious about the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses.
Why are the four old people so secretive about the Ten Thousand Curses Palace, and why are the descendants of the fishermen near the Ten Thousand Curses Palace all suffering from such serious diseases?
Besides, Heilian is not interested in cursing, so what are the "Jade Zun" and "Golden Egg" they are looking for?
"Could the golden egg be the one Zhao Zhen sent over?" Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao.
Zhan Zhao held his chin and thought for a while, "It's possible, after the egg is opened, the inside is all gold, so it can also be called a golden egg."
"What about the jade statue?" Bai Yutang asked, "My master's jade carving?"
Zhan Zhao rubbed his chin, "Have you seen it before?"
Bai Yutang shook his head.
"Um……"
"What are you doing?"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were sitting at the stone table in the garden discussing, when they heard voices behind them, only one person had this soft glutinous rice ball-like voice.
The two turned their heads and bowed their heads. Sure enough, they saw the fourth son looking up at them with a smile on his face, holding a... lantern in his hand!
"Little four, do you play with lanterns in broad daylight?" Zhan Zhao asked him with a smile.
"Let's go exploring."
At this time, Xiao Liang from outside the yard also ran in with a torch, followed by the smiling Tianzun.
Bai Yutang looked at his master helplessly, "Both of them together are not worth a fraction of yours, and you still play with them?"
Tianzun narrowed his eyes, pulled the fourth son with one hand and Xiao Liang with the other, "Let's go, let's ignore them."
After finishing speaking, the big and small went out.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, and asked curiously, "Where are you going to explore?"
"Hmm..." The fourth son was about to answer, but Tianzun quickly covered his mouth.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned - there is a situation!
"Don't tell them!" Tianzun dragged the two children and ran away.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang naturally stood up and followed!
After a while, everyone arrived at the room where Gongsun and the others lived.
In the room, Gongsun and Zhao Pu are both there.
Gongsun seemed to be writing a prescription, Zhao Pu was eating a bowl of glutinous rice balls, and Zou Liang and Lin Yehuo were watching the hole in the ground.
The table has been moved away by the shadow guards, and the mechanism below has also been opened, and the entrance of the dark tunnel is presented in front of everyone.
After the mechanism was opened last night, Yin Hou told everyone that he and the fourth son didn't disappear for no reason that day, but accidentally fell into the tunnel of the mechanism.But in order to prevent everyone from discovering the authentic secret and ruining Bai Xia's surprise birthday gift, neither he nor the fourth son said anything about it.
But now that they all know, everyone came to study this tunnel.
"It looks like Bai Yuelin used to live in this room." Bai Xia was also on the side.
When he woke up this morning, he couldn't find his wife.Yue Ya'er told him that Lu Xue'er had brought someone to prepare a birthday party for him, and asked him to find his son to play in the morning.
When Bai Yutang entered the room, he heard Bai Xia eating a bowl of candied eggs cooked for him by Lu Xueer himself, and telling everyone, "Bai Yuelin probably secretly made this mechanism back then."
"Is there nothing else down there besides Pearl Plum?" Lin Yehuo asked Yin Hou who was behind him.
Yin Hou spread his hands, "I don't know, it's blocked by Pearl Plum."
"Let's go down and have a look!" The fourth son went down once before, but this time he got excited again, and was about to jump into the hole when he was caught by Gongsun, "You've grown your guts!"
The fourth son looked at Gongsun with his mouth flattened.
Zhan Zhao took the lantern in his hand, "Why don't I go down..."
"Why are you going down?" Yin Hou raised his eyebrows.
"That's right, how old are you still playing such boring games." Tianzun took the lantern in his hand, "I'll go."
Everyone was speechless - it was too obvious not to let Zhan Zhao go down!
Bai Yutang poked Tianzun and said, "Master, Grandpa just secretly hid a scroll of paintings and ran away to the room."
"Really!" Tianzun was surprised, "What good things did he buy?"
Bai Yutang spread his hands, "He acted very carefully, and he didn't want to tell you."
Tianzun stuffed the lantern into Bai Yutang's hands casually, and ran out in a hurry, "The old ghost must have bought something good!"
Tianzun disappeared in a flash.
Everyone looked at Bai Yutang silently, and sighed—how deceitful this is...
Bai Yutang handed the lantern to Zhan Zhao, took the fourth son from Gongsun, and said to Gongsun, "It's still early anyway, Mao'er and I will take them down to play."
Gongsun knew that it was actually Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao who were thinking about it. Coupled with the eager eyes of the youngest son, Gongsun naturally wouldn't stop him, so he nodded, "Tell them to be careful."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went down with the fourth son and Xiao Liang, and Zhao Pu also went down to join in the fun, and when they got below, they took the fourth son from Bai Yutang's hands.
Zhan Zhao took a lantern to look around, and Bai Yutang held a torch to see if there were any strokes on the top of his head.
There was a lot of pearl plum powder left on the wall, so the silver light was shining. Although it was not as bright as the one that Xiao Sizi came down from before, he could still see it clearly.
"It's so straight and authentic." Zhan Zhao reached out and touched the wall, "Bai Yuelin probably spent a lot of labor to build it."
Everyone silently glanced at Bai Yutang, who was seriously looking at the wall - sure enough, prodigal and picky are inherited from their ancestors.
On the tunnel, Wu Sha looked at Yin Hou, what does that mean—is it all right?
Yin Hou shrugged, helpless—too lazy to care.
Wusha had no choice but to give up, sighing——Tianzun was responsible for stopping them, but he didn't expect the old ghost to be cheated away by Bai Yutang with a few words. It was useless and he was really mad at him.
What is Tianzun doing now?
In Lu Tianhan's room, Tianzun grabbed one end of the scroll, "Show me."
"Don't make trouble!" Lu Tianhan had no choice but to grab the picture scroll from him, "This is a birthday present for my son-in-law!"
"Just look!"
"Give it up, I won't be polite to you if you break it!"
……
Tianzun and Lu Tianhan are patronizing the picture scroll, how can they still remember Bai Yutang and the others.
……
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, together with Zhao Pu, Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liang who joined in the fun, walked through the long tunnel until they reached the huge space below Tu Yunfeng, but they still didn't find any clues.All that remains on the wall is the cobweb-like pearl Megan line.
Bai Yutang was proficient in mechanisms but still couldn't find anything suspicious, so he had no choice but to say, "Maybe the trip was for nothing."
"How about going up to Tu Yunfeng?" Zhan Zhao asked, "It's easy to go up here."
Bai Yutang felt that it was feasible, so everyone performed lightness kung fu and easily climbed to the top of Tu Yunfeng.
From the inside, it is indeed very fast. First, there are places to rely on all around, and second, there are no protruding rocks and no airflow.
When I got to the top of the mountain, I found that it came out of a stone tablet.
"What's over there?" Zhao Pu asked Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, pointing not far away.
The two of them took a look and couldn't help frowning. They saw many pits, and a shovel. One pit was relatively large, and it was obvious that it hadn't been dug for a long time.
"Those old men have already been here!" Bai Yutang said helplessly.
"That is to say, they have already taken away the things that were buried back then?" Zhan Zhao walked to the edge of the pit and squatted down to look at it, rubbing his chin and pondering, "Well, it looks like a square thing, a box or something?"
"It should be the Five Dragon Order that was buried back then?" Zhao Pu asked, "I didn't say there are other things. What does it have to do with Yuzun and Golden Egg?"
They searched again, but they still found nothing. After finding nothing, everyone saw that Yingxue Palace was already very lively, so they had no choice but to go down the mountain.
Seeing a few people enter the cave happily and come out dejectedly, the corners of the four old men's mouths twitched slightly, and they smiled without saying a word, with wicked looks on their faces.
At this time, Chen Xing'er yelled briskly from outside, "Dinner is ready!"
Everyone went out to eat Bai Xia's birthday wine, because they were all her own, so Lu Xueer set up a big table, making it so noisy.
Seeing Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's heads slumped, Bai Xia walked past them, and suddenly approached and whispered, "Have you opened the toy box?"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned for a moment, looked at Bai Xia, and nodded.
"Did you find a tray?" Bai Xia continued to ask.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, then nodded - yes, although I don't know what it is for.
Bai Xia smiled slightly, then lowered his voice, and said, "There are fourteen holes in the tray, one golden egg and twelve jade statues."
After finishing speaking, Bai Xia laughed and left, left Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang in a daze for a while, then turned around and ran back to the room.
The two returned to the room, closed the door first, and then rummaged through the boxes.
"Cat." Bai Yutang opened the box and found the tray of unknown purpose.
"Here we come!" Zhan Zhao brought over two boxes, one containing the twelve zodiac signs made of jade, and the other containing the golden egg Zhao Zhen gave.
There are a total of thirteen pits in this tray, the one in the middle is the smoothest and round, Zhan Zhao put the golden egg in and found it just right.
The twelve pits surrounded by golden eggs are different, with different uneven shapes.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang used the jade carvings of the twelve zodiac signs to test one by one, and found that each jade carving corresponds to a pit, and after a while, all twelve jade carvings were placed in it.
It turns out that the golden eggs and twelve jade carvings plus this tray are a complete set.
Bai Yutang thought for a while, then stretched out his hand and pressed the mechanism of the golden egg...In an instant, the mechanism opened.
After the eggshell was opened, a golden light appeared on the tray, and the jade carving instantly turned into a transparent orange.All kinds of light penetrated through this warm-colored jade carving, forming light and shadow, and soon, a whole painting was formed on the tray.
In the picture, there are several small islands and the sea, as if seeing rough waves... With the flapping of butterfly wings, a shadow of a boat appeared on the sea surface, following a certain complicated route, bypassing various reefs, Sail to one of the small islands that is shaped like a goat's horn.
Zhan Zhao pointed to a resplendent palace on the small island, "This is..."
"Maybe it's the legendary Palace of Ten Thousand Curses?" Bai Yutang couldn't help but sigh, "This map is really ingenious!"
Zhan Zhao also nodded in agreement.
"Cough cough."
The two were watching intently, but they heard a coughing sound behind them, and they turned their heads in shock.
At some point, Lu Tianhan stood behind the two of them, stroking his beard and looking at them helplessly. At this moment, Lu Tianhan only sighed in his heart-these two children are too smart, so they can be found out.
"Grandpa." Bai Yutang asked Lu Tianhan, "Is this the map to the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses back then?"
Lu Tianhan was silent for a moment, sighed, and pointed to the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses in the picture, "This area of water is called the Sea of Dead Corpses. There are countless undead dead in it, and it is very dangerous. You two landlubbers are the best!" It’s better to stay away from here. Besides! The Palace of Ten Thousand Curses sank to the bottom of the sea 100 years ago, and it is estimated that it has become the Palace of Ten Thousand Fishes now, so you two..."
"A little farther away from here?" Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang could guess what Lu Tianhan wanted to say.
Lu Tianhan stroked his beard helplessly, "Grandpa is doing it for your own good, don't let Yinhou and Tianzun know that you two have seen the map, otherwise they probably won't be able to sleep well at night!"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded.
"Actually, I don't even know this map." Bai Yutang said, "I'm not sure which sea area it is in."
Lu Tianhan looked at Bai Yutang, then at Zhan Zhao, with a straight face, "In short, you are not allowed to go, why are you still here, to celebrate your father's birthday!"
"Oh..." Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had no choice but to put away the two boxes, and took them to give Bai Xia a birthday gift.
Lu Tianhan looked at the two people who ran away, sighed, reached out to pick up the tray, and suddenly his internal strength shook...
The tray instantly shattered into powder.
Lu Tianhan patted the ashes on his hands, went out with his hands behind his back, and said to himself, this time, the boss is alive, let's destroy the tray first, so you can save yourself and then turn left!
As everyone knows... Bai Yutang has a photographic memory, he saw the entire boat route and sea area map just now, so...he remembered it in his heart.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang knew in their hearts that Tianzun and the others must be hiding something. If the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses really no longer exists, they need not be so nervous. The reason why they are so nervous is that the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses should still exist and hide the secret A big secret, and a very dangerous one.And the key to finding that sea area is probably the box that was dug out by Tianzun and others in advance, buried on the top of Tuyun Peak, right?Maybe it has something to do with the Five Dragon Order?
Bai Yuelin's design was quite ingenious, Tu Yunfeng only appeared once in 100 years!But in fact, he can reach the peak smoothly from the inside of Yingxue Palace.In other words, Bai Yuelin could hide whatever he wanted at the top of Tu Yunfeng back then, but the world would have to wait 100 years before they would know what he was hiding!What shocking secret?Need to hide so painstakingly?
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang suddenly felt that it was necessary for them to care about Jianghu affairs and rumors, especially about the past.Both of them planned to go to the know-it-all in a few days and ask about the past.
Putting aside the doubts in his heart, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went to celebrate Bai Xia's birthday.
Bai Xia and Lu Xueer have always had a relatively quiet life, and this birthday is probably the most lively one... In fact, sometimes the difference between lively and noisy lies in whether the people who gather together are what they want.
Anyway, on this birthday, Bai Xia had a very happy time. There were old and young on a big table, feeling like dragging the family for no reason.Moreover, the old man quarreled with the old man, but the children had a good time with the children, which was a different feeling.
Master Bao felt that everyone was too tired to investigate the case before, so he wanted to take advantage of Bai Xia's birthday to let Zhan Zhao and the others have a good rest for a few days, and let Bai Yutang get together with his parents.
Unexpectedly, just after Bai Xia's birthday, Kaifeng sent an imperial decree, and Zhao Zhen hurriedly ordered everyone to return to the palace, saying that there was something important to do.
Lu Xueer saw that Bai Yutang seemed a little hesitant to stay with them for a few days before rushing to Kaifeng, so she waved to him, "Don't worry, I just want to find a friend with your father to catch up with each other, you accompany Zhao and the others back home Let's go to Kaifeng and meet again later!"
Hearing what Lu Xueer said, Bai Yutang was even more puzzled, why the fuck was he so sure that they would meet each other after a while?
On the other hand, following the imperial decree, Zhao Zhen also sent Master Bao a personal letter.
After Bao Zheng finished reading the long letter, he was stunned for a long time, and then he actually laughed.
This time it's fresh!
Zhan Zhao and the others were very curious. Usually Zhao Zhen hurriedly recruited everyone back to Kaifeng because of some major incident or something happened. Why is Mr. Bao so happy?Could it be a good thing?
Seeing that Bao Zheng received the letter, he smiled coldly, "It can be regarded as fulfilling the long-cherished wish of my family for these years. I thought it would be impossible to meet again in this life. It's just in time!"
Everyone became even more curious—what long-cherished wish?Are you here just in time?
Mr. Bao waved his sleeves, and rarely seemed anxious, "Depart immediately and return to Kaifeng!"
The author has something to say: This chapter is very important, it is an important foreshadowing of the next case, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang will still go to the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses in the end, but it will be written in a very later case.In addition, this case is over, and the next case is "The Man with the Ghost Mask in the Temple of Yin and Yang".
Volume [-]: The Ghost-Mask Man in the Hall of Yin and Yang
Bai Yuelin and Bai Yueyun, brothers and sisters with great affection, leave it to future generations...or this beautiful gift to the people of the world, and at the same time clear up the rumors that the Bai family became prosperous by cursing the underworld.On the contrary, Bai Yueyun's few words of blessing to the common people in the world greatly improved the status of this witch in the hearts of the Jianghu people.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned - there is a situation!
"Don't tell them!" Tianzun dragged the two children and ran away.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang naturally stood up and followed!
After a while, everyone arrived at the room where Gongsun and the others lived.
In the room, Gongsun and Zhao Pu are both there.
Gongsun seemed to be writing a prescription, Zhao Pu was eating a bowl of glutinous rice balls, and Zou Liang and Lin Yehuo were watching the hole in the ground.
The table has been moved away by the shadow guards, and the mechanism below has also been opened, and the entrance of the dark tunnel is presented in front of everyone.

What is Tianzun doing now?
In Lu Tianhan's room, Tianzun grabbed one end of the scroll, "Show me."
"Don't make trouble!" Lu Tianhan had no choice but to grab the picture scroll from him, "This is a birthday present for my son-in-law!"
"Just look!"
"Give it up, I won't be polite to you if you break it!"
……
Tianzun and Lu Tianhan are patronizing the picture scroll, how can they still remember Bai Yutang and the others.
……
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, together with Zhao Pu, Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liang who joined in the fun, walked through the long tunnel until they reached the huge space below Tu Yunfeng, but they still didn't find any clues.All that remains on the wall is the cobweb-like pearl Megan line.

It turns out that the golden eggs and twelve jade carvings plus this tray are a complete set.
Bai Yutang thought for a while, then stretched out his hand and pressed the mechanism of the golden egg...In an instant, the mechanism opened.
After the eggshell was opened, a golden light appeared on the tray, and the jade carving instantly turned into a transparent orange.All kinds of light penetrated through this warm-colored jade carving, forming light and shadow, and soon, a whole painting was formed on the tray.
In the picture, there are several small islands and the sea, as if seeing rough waves... With the flapping of butterfly wings, a shadow of a boat appeared on the sea surface, following a certain complicated route, bypassing various reefs, Sail to one of the small islands that is shaped like a goat's horn.
Zhan Zhao pointed to a resplendent palace on the small island, "This is..."
"Maybe it's the legendary Palace of Ten Thousand Curses?" Bai Yutang couldn't help but sigh, "This map is really ingenious!"
Zhan Zhao also nodded in agreement.
"Cough cough."
The two were watching intently, but they heard a coughing sound behind them, and they turned their heads in shock.
At some point, Lu Tianhan stood behind the two of them, stroking his beard and looking at them helplessly. At this moment, Lu Tianhan only sighed in his heart-these two children are too smart, so they can be found out.
"Grandpa." Bai Yutang asked Lu Tianhan, "Is this the map to the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses back then?"
Lu Tianhan was silent for a moment, sighed, and pointed to the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses in the picture, "This area of water is called the Sea of Dead Corpses. There are countless undead dead in it, and it is very dangerous. You two landlubbers are the best!" It’s better to stay away from here. Besides! The Palace of Ten Thousand Curses sank to the bottom of the sea 100 years ago, and it is estimated that it has become the Palace of Ten Thousand Fishes now, so you two..."
"A little farther away from here?" Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang could guess what Lu Tianhan wanted to say.
Lu Tianhan stroked his beard helplessly, "Grandpa is doing it for your own good, don't let Yinhou and Tianzun know that you two have seen the map, otherwise they probably won't be able to sleep well at night!"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded.
"Actually, I don't even know this map." Bai Yutang said, "I'm not sure which sea area it is in."
Lu Tianhan looked at Bai Yutang, then at Zhan Zhao, with a straight face, "In short, you are not allowed to go, why are you still here, to celebrate your father's birthday!"
"Oh..." Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had no choice but to put away the two boxes, and took them to give Bai Xia a birthday gift.
Lu Tianhan looked at the two people who ran away, sighed, reached out to pick up the tray, and suddenly his internal strength shook...
The tray instantly shattered into powder.
Lu Tianhan patted the ashes on his hands, went out with his hands behind his back, and said to himself, this time, the boss is alive, let's destroy the tray first, so you can save yourself and then turn left!
As everyone knows... Bai Yutang has a photographic memory, he saw the entire boat route and sea area map just now, so...he remembered it in his heart.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang knew in their hearts that Tianzun and the others must be hiding something. If the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses really no longer exists, they need not be so nervous. The reason why they are so nervous is that the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses should still exist and hide the secret A big secret, and a very dangerous one.And the key to finding that sea area is probably the box that was dug out by Tianzun and others in advance, buried on the top of Tuyun Peak, right?Maybe it has something to do with the Five Dragon Order?
Bai Yuelin's design was quite ingenious, Tu Yunfeng only appeared once in 100 years!But in fact, he can reach the peak smoothly from the inside of Yingxue Palace.In other words, Bai Yuelin could hide whatever he wanted at the top of Tu Yunfeng back then, but the world would have to wait 100 years before they would know what he was hiding!What shocking secret?Need to hide so painstakingly?
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang suddenly felt that it was necessary for them to care about Jianghu affairs and rumors, especially about the past.Both of them planned to go to the know-it-all in a few days and ask about the past.
Putting aside the doubts in his heart, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went to celebrate Bai Xia's birthday.
Bai Xia and Lu Xueer have always had a relatively quiet life, and this birthday is probably the most lively one... In fact, sometimes the difference between lively and noisy lies in whether the people who gather together are what they want.
Anyway, on this birthday, Bai Xia had a very happy time. There were old and young on a big table, feeling like dragging the family for no reason.Moreover, the old man quarreled with the old man, but the children had a good time with the children, which was a different feeling.
Master Bao felt that everyone was too tired to investigate the case before, so he wanted to take advantage of Bai Xia's birthday to let Zhan Zhao and the others have a good rest for a few days, and let Bai Yutang get together with his parents.
Unexpectedly, just after Bai Xia's birthday, Kaifeng sent an imperial decree, and Zhao Zhen hurriedly ordered everyone to return to the palace, saying that there was something important to do.
Lu Xueer saw that Bai Yutang seemed a little hesitant to stay with them for a few days before rushing to Kaifeng, so she waved to him, "Don't worry, I just want to find a friend with your father to catch up with each other, you accompany Zhao and the others back home Let's go to Kaifeng and meet again later!"
Hearing what Lu Xueer said, Bai Yutang was even more puzzled, why the fuck was he so sure that they would meet each other after a while?
On the other hand, following the imperial decree, Zhao Zhen also sent Master Bao a personal letter.
After Bao Zheng finished reading the long letter, he was stunned for a long time, and then he actually laughed.
This time it's fresh!
Zhan Zhao and the others were very curious. Usually Zhao Zhen hurriedly recruited everyone back to Kaifeng because of some major incident or something happened. Why is Mr. Bao so happy?Could it be a good thing?
Seeing that Bao Zheng received the letter, he smiled coldly, "It can be regarded as fulfilling the long-cherished wish of my family for these years. I thought it would be impossible to meet again in this life. It's just in time!"
Everyone became even more curious—what long-cherished wish?Are you here just in time?
Mr. Bao waved his sleeves, and rarely seemed anxious, "Depart immediately and return to Kaifeng!"
The author has something to say: This chapter is very important, it is an important foreshadowing of the next case, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang will still go to the Palace of Ten Thousand Curses in the end, but it will be written in a very later case.In addition, this case is over, and the next case is "The Man with the Ghost Mask in the Temple of Yin and Yang".
