[Rat cat] Jade Xu Luo Qianqiu

Chapter 22 Uncovering the heart traces

When Zhan Zhao received Bai Yutang's letter, he felt a faint sense of loss in his heart.Bai Yutang, really went back...

I thought it would be good to be like this, and each of them should be quiet, so as not to do anything irreversible due to impulsiveness.But hearing Ma Han's description of how Bai Yutang left Kaifeng with a distraught expression, Zhan Zhao felt that his heart was tightly squeezed into a ball, restless, always restless.

However, after thinking about it and thinking about Bao Zheng's safety, he could only grit his teeth and stay in the Kaifeng mansion, letting his heart hang up and down, unable to be safe.

"...Guard Zhan, you took the wrong case file again. The student said it was the third volume from left to right on the second floor, and you took the second volume from right to left on the third floor."

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm going to get it right away." The absent-minded Zhan Zhao said softly "ah", and came back to his senses, feeling a little annoyed.

Gongsun Ce sighed softly as he looked at the figure of the military officer in red who disappeared at the corner of the cabinet.Ever since Bai Yutang left, Zhan Zhao has been in a trance, making mistakes repeatedly, either taking the wrong file or forgetting to go to the palace to pick up Mr. Bao, and sometimes even patrolling the wrong place. Just disappeared out of thin air.

Gongsun Ce glanced at Bao Zheng, Bao Zheng nodded to show understanding, stroked his long beard, and said earnestly: "Guard Zhan, if you want to find Shaoxia Bai, go find him."

Old Zhan Zhao blushed, so the adults saw it...

"But your safety, my lord..."

"With Dynasty Mahan and the others here, and so many yamen servants, the assassins can't hurt the government. Besides, they are paid, and the guards can't let them do nothing while receiving the salary." Bao Zheng teased with a smile, It was interesting to see the embarrassed look of the young man in red.

Zhan Huwei is still just a young man, and he is still so energetic...

"Thank you, sir." After thinking about it for a while, Zhan Zhao clasped his fists in thanks, hurried back to his room to pack his luggage, and embarked on the journey to find the mouse.

Trapped island.

Once again set foot on this land where he had been away for a year, Zhan Zhao felt touched, the scenery remained the same, but he couldn't help but lament that things were different.The last time I came here, it was to catch mice...

Following the guide into the Juyi Hall, seeing Lu Fang and the others sitting lined up from the main seat to both sides, I felt a headache for a while.This posture, why does it look like a criminal interrogation...

Zhan Zhao glanced around, but didn't see the familiar white figure, his eyes inevitably showed disappointment.Min Xiuxiu saw it clearly, so he picked up the teacup and blew on the tea froth, knowingly asked in a leisurely manner, "I don't know what the Master Zhan is doing here?"

"Zhan is here to find Brother Bai. A few days ago, Zhan had some quarrels with Brother Bai, and then Brother Bai left a letter to leave. Zhan heard that Brother Bai didn't look very good when he left, and was worried that something would happen to Brother Bai, so Come to visit, I hope that some of you can let Zhan meet Brother Bai, so that Zhan can feel at ease." Zhan Zhao clasped his fists and saluted, speaking earnestly.

"Oh? Master Zhan, don't worry, my fifth younger brother is actually not a big deal. I just went to Kaifeng and lost my heart, and now I'm just soaking in the wine jar every day." Min Xiuxiu deliberately slowed down his speech, quietly observing the situation. Zhan Zhao's face.

Every time she said something, Zhan Zhao's face turned paler.Very good, it seems that this kitten is not completely indifferent to the fifth brother, besides, he rushed all the way from Kaifeng eagerly.Min Soo Soo expressed that he is very satisfied with this state.

"...Then, where is that brother Bai now?" Zhan Zhao kept his mind steady, with a steady tone, trying not to show his heartbroken and unspeakable expression.

"He's gone out now, you go to Xueying Residence and wait."

"Thank you Madam Lu."

Looking at Zhan Zhaoyuan's back, the Juyi Hall suddenly exploded.

"Sister-in-law, why are you lying to Zhan Zhao like this? Fifth brother won't blame us, right?" Han Zhang scratched his head, feeling that Zhan Zhao's face was too pale just now.When I thought that this was the masterpiece of my sister-in-law, I couldn't help feeling guilty.

"Second brother, you are stupid. If sister-in-law doesn't say it's more serious, how can you make that kitten feel bad?" Jiang Ping patted Han Zhang's head with a goose feather fan without hesitation, stroking his mustache complacently.

"The fourth brother is right, the little cat is distressed, and the fifth brother will be able to handle things easily. Huh, what can I do if my mother is out?!"

"Yes, yes, sister-in-law is the most powerful." There was a burst of echoes under the pressure of the female...

Snow Shadow Residence.

Zhan Zhao sat on the round stool beside the table, his right hand grasped Ju Que's scabbard tightly and then loosened, loosened and tightened again.Although his face was calm and unwavering, this unconscious little movement still revealed the tension in his heart.

Yutang, how are you...

The nerves are tense, and even some troubles will overreact.So when he heard the sudden "goo", Zhan Zhao was really taken aback and almost pulled out the giant que.

Standing up, he walked around the room, and finally found the source of the sound behind the landscape screen - a black and varnished starling.

"It's you, little thing. I gave Zhan a jump." With a smile, Zhan Zhao stretched his fingers through the crack of the birdcage to touch the soft fluff.The starling rubbed against each other, seemed to feel very comfortable, and let out another joyful cry.Zhan Zhao withdrew his finger and added some water and feed to the starling.

The dark starling fluttered his wings, tilted his head to look at this gentle-looking person, and stared hard at a cat beauty with his small watery eyes.Zhan Zhao thought it was funny, and was about to tease him again, but unexpectedly, the mynah yelled happily, and opened his mouth to say, "Cat, I like you."

"What?!" Zhan Zhao's face turned red "shua", following the mynah's cheerful "Cat, I like you." "I like you." "I love you.", Zhan Zhao's face turned red. The flush began to spread towards the neck, Zhan Nanxia turned into Zhan Daxia.

What is Bai Yutang doing... Don't you know that he has a starling?Can such a thing be said casually...

Master Mao, whose head was smoking from the red tide, turned around in a daze, and walked back to the table stiffly—the so-called stiff, cough, with the same hands and feet.He was trembling his hands to pour himself a cup of tea, but at this moment, Bai Yutang panted and pushed the door open, shouting "Cat!"

Before he could calm down, he looked up and saw Zhan Zhao, who was blushing and had a thick neck. He couldn't help but wonder, "Mao'er, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"

Zhan Zhao managed to calm down, and was about to speak when the starling, who was dying to die, yelled again, "Cat, I like you!"

"Shua", a certain blue-skinned cat has completely turned into a red-skinned cat, it is red from the inside to the outside, and a certain white mouse can't help but blush.

"...Cat?" He carefully glanced at Zhan Zhao's face. The cat won't be angry, right?He walked around Zhan Zhao lightly and came behind the screen, grabbed the starling and threw it out the door together with the birdcage, then closed the door and locked it, and the noisy room fell silent instantly.

Oops...why doesn't the cat make a sound?Really angry?Don't you blame the fifth master, Meng Lang, on me?Blame that silly bird, what's the trouble? !If the cat is really angry, let's see if Fifth Master doesn't pluck you and stew you!

Zhan Zhaoqian swallowed his saliva, came back to his senses, looked at Bai Yutang who was not breathing evenly, and felt a slight twitch in his heart, this mouse must have rushed back as soon as it heard the news... Then he suddenly remembered what Min Xiuxiu said. What I said, I couldn't help but feel a pain in my heart.

"...Mao'er, why are you here?" Since Mao'er doesn't speak, only Fifth Master can talk about it, come on!Fifth Lord must coax the cat back, and he must not miss this opportunity!The villain in Bai Yutang's heart secretly clenched his fists to cheer him up.

"I... heard from Ma Han and the others that you were not in the right state when you left, and I was a little worried, so I came here to see you." Zhan Zhao turned his face away, a little embarrassed.

Eh?The cat doesn't seem to be angry?Well, keep up the good work!Here comes the dose of heavy medicine!

"Mao'er, I was actually not completely drunk that night, Master Wu, so I know what I did." Bai Yutang walked up to Zhan Zhao, looked him straight in the eyes, and said it calmly.

"What?!" Well, the red tide that had faded just now surged up again.

"Mao'er, I really like you, I like you very much. Can you...can you answer Fifth Lord?"

"..." Looking at Bai Yutang's sincere and innocent eyes, Zhan Zhao was a little dazed for a moment, and suddenly felt a little out of breath. He went to the window and opened it, looking at the rough sea outside. He was silent for a long time before he became cruel. Said: "Yutang, I can't answer you about this matter."

"Why?" Bai Yutang didn't seem surprised by Zhan Zhao's answer, his tone was even calm, not at all like his usual self.

"I……"

"Mao'er, you have me in your heart, so why should you not?" After thinking about it for a few days, I still can't figure out how to write the three words Bai Yutang backwards.If Zhan Zhao really didn't have himself in his heart, how could he allow himself to be so frivolous?Although he was angry, he didn't do anything to Master Wu, and even helped him tidy up.If it was someone else, he would have been chopped into several pieces by this cat.

Walking to the window, he pressed his hands on the window sill, just wrapping Zhan Zhao in his arms.

"Cat, why don't you answer?"

"...People's words are terrifying." Zhan Zhao was silent for a long time before he gave such an answer that was not really an answer.

"Mao'er, you are not a person who is afraid of what people say." Otherwise, you would not have resolutely devoted yourself to the public...

"..."

"Is it because of me?" Bai Yutang reached out to lift up a strand of Zhan Zhao's hair, played with it between his fingers, and chuckled, "Cat, you should know that Fifth Lord, I never cared about these things."

"But I care." Zhan Zhao turned around, took off the hair wrapped around Bai Yutang's hand, looked him straight in the eyes, and said very seriously, "Yutang, I care."

Bai Yutang's hand that had just been stretched out to brush his hair stopped in mid-air. After a long silence, he sighed, "Cat..."

"So, Yutang, don't bring this up again."

"...Mao'er, how about this, Fifth Master, I will leave for a while, you think about it for yourself, and it's not too late to give me an answer, how about it?"

"Yutang, this matter—uh!" Bai Yutang pressed his index finger and middle finger together on Zhan Zhao's lips, and then put on his usual playful smile, "Cat, I really don't give it a chance. me?"

Zhan Zhao looked into those sparkling eyes, and any words of refusal stuck in his throat, so he sighed, "Okay." Anyway, as long as my answer after a few months is still the same as it is today, then there's no harm in agreeing... …

"Heh, the cat really loves me." Bai Yutang smiled happily, so he made an inch of it, put his arms around Zhan Zhao's waist, leaned over his head, and lightly pecked on his lips for a sweet treat, which made a certain thin-skinned cat instantly Fried hair. "Bai Yutang, you—!" Zhan Zhao covered his mouth, his face flushed.

Zhan Zhao stayed in the empty island for two days before leaving for Kaifeng, Bai Yutang stood on the pier and watched Zhan Zhao go away, until the blue shadow stood proudly in the boundless sky, then turned back with a chuckle.Returning to Xueying Residence, packing up her luggage, saying goodbye to everyone, Pianpian in white also embarked on a journey.

two months later.

Bai Yutang held the painting exhibition to the door of Kaifeng Mansion, but didn't speak, as if he was staring at the plaque on it in a daze.The yamen servant guarding the gate felt strange, stepped forward and made a bow, "Bai Shaoxia?" However, Bai Yutang didn't respond.The yamen servant called him a few more times, but Bai Yutang remained unmoved.The yamen servant was suspicious, and ignoring Bai Yutang's taboo, he stretched out his hand to pull his sleeve, but Bai Yutang seemed to be fixed in place by something, unable to pull it, his eyes were empty and lifeless.

The yamen servant felt something was wrong, and immediately went in to inform Zhan Zhao.At this moment, Shen Jingtong and Chong Suchen happened to be guests in Kaifeng Mansion, and upon hearing Bai Yutang's return, they hurriedly followed Zhan Zhao who was rushing out the door with a look of joy.

Zhan Zhao strode across the threshold, saw the white shadow standing at the door, couldn't help calling "Yutang!" God knows, without Bai Yutang in the past two months, the room was deserted, and his heart was empty , I felt uncomfortable for a while.But Zhan Zhao still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart if he wanted to agree to Bai Yutang because of this.Besides, it has been two months since Bai Yutang left, and since last month he has stopped sending letters, which made him worry for a while.Therefore, in the past two days, Mrs. Mao has been in a lot of turmoil, and no thoughts have come out. At this time, when Bai Yutang came back, Zhan Zhao really let go of his worries.

Zhan Zhao called "Yutang", but Bai Yutang still didn't respond, Zhan Zhao felt suspicious, suddenly remembered what the yamen servant said just now, his heart tightened again, and he tentatively called "Yutang?"

Hearing this sound, Bai Yutang's fingers moved slightly, and his lowered head also tended to lift slightly.Seeing Bai Yutang's reaction, Zhan Zhao was about to take a few steps forward to pull Bai Yutang back, when Shen Jingtong suddenly shouted from behind, "Master Zhan, get out of the way!"

"?!" Zhan Zhao was taken aback, Bai Yutang had already pulled out Huaying from that side, and slashed at Zhan Zhao with a sword, with a ferocious force, not at all like his usual appearance during a sparring session.

As a Nanxia, ​​he still has this ability to react, and Zhan Zhao has always been on guard.Zhan Zhao wanted to turn to one side, narrowly dodging Huaying's sword, but when he dodged, his right arm was accidentally scratched by the sword energy, and streaks of blood oozed out.

"Yutang?!" Zhan Zhaoxin and Xia Jingyi called again, who knew that Bai Yutang became even more frantic after hearing this call.Raising his hand and swiping backwards, he retracted the forward picture. The head that had been lowered just now was completely raised at this time, and the red eyes could not help but make Zhan Zhong and the three present gasp.

"Yutang, wake up!" Zhan Zhao raised the giant que with his right hand and placed it flat on his chest, blocking Bai Yutang's chest-slashing sword, then flipped his wrist to defuse the situation.

"Zhan Zhao, don't call him by his name, or he will only become more frenzied!" Chong Suchen shouted behind him, then jumped out and drew the soft sword wrapped around his waist.Xue Yuan trembled, twisted, and inserted [Meow Meow] obliquely from the side to bind Huaying firmly.Seeing this, Shen Jingtong quickly drew out the horizontal knife and attacked Bai Yutang from the other side.

Bai Yutang shouted loudly, his true energy gathered rapidly, and with a flick of his shadow, he shook Xueyuan and Hengdao away with a "bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang".Zhan Zhao quickly pulled out the giant gate to block Bai Yutang's castration, and confronted him head-on.Because he couldn't hurt Bai Yutang, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but feel a little restrained, and after a while, cold sweat appeared on his forehead.Seeing that something was wrong, Chong Suchen took advantage of the situation to go around behind Bai Yutang, took out a large handful of silver needles from his sleeve, and threw them towards Bai Yutang violently, restraining the important acupuncture points all over his body, then moved forward, and slashed at Bai Yutang with one hand. It landed on the back of Bai Yutang's head.Bai Yutang's body suddenly went limp, and he fell into Zhan Zhao's arms and passed out.

"Yutang! Master Zhonggu, what's going on?!" Zhan Zhao said while putting Bai Yutang's hand on his shoulder, half-supporting and half-embracing Bai Yutang back to his room.

Shen Jingtong saw that Chong Suchen pursed her lips and did not speak, so she had to speak up, "Master Zhan, brother Bai has been bewitched." She took out a small wooden box from her brocade bag, opened the lid, and a piece of fat meat The chubby white worm was restlessly chasing towards one direction, and everyone looked in the same direction, and they were facing Bai Yutang who was lying on the bed. "During the Chen Zhai murder case, I once told Mr. Zhan that the Gu worm on my body is particularly sensitive to other Gu. Just now, I just felt its strange movement, so I let Mr. Zhan get out of the way."

"Then what kind of Gu is this?! Brother Shen, is there a way to untie it?" Zhan Zhao stood by the bed, looked at Bai Yutang who was sleeping on the bed, clenched his fists tightly, and didn't even respond when his nails were embedded in his flesh.If it wasn't because of his hesitation that Yutang made a temporary separation agreement with him, how could Yutang become like this? !

Shen Jingtong shook her head, feeling very regretful, expressing that she had more heart than strength, "I only have a superficial understanding of the Gu technique, and I can't solve it at all. As for what kind of Gu technique it is, as far as I can see, it should be the Heart-eating Gu technique. This Gu is mostly used by some vicious women on people who can't get what they want, because people who have planted Heart-biting Gu will only keep attacking their sweetheart until they kill them."

"Then Master Chonggu has a solution?" Zhan Zhao turned his head, his cat eyes were full of pleading and pleading, Chong Suchen is proficient in both medicine and poison, and he will definitely be able to cure the Gu on Yutang's body!

However, Chong Suchen just turned his head away, and said lightly: "I am not good at Gu art, and I don't know more than Jingtong. I can only temporarily suppress the control of Gu insects on him for him, and let Yutang recover his sanity. Others , can only go to southern Xinjiang."
