So this side story has nothing to do with the main text, nor has it to do with the real character units, if there are any similarities... Cough, just pretend you haven't read it...
-
The flowers in the spring forest are so charming, the birds sing in the green trees in spring,
The spring breeze is full of passion, and the spring is warm and the country is beautiful.
Thirty miles outside Bianjing City, there is a small town with a tributary of the Bian River meandering through the town. People in the town have called this small river "Chunshui River" since ancient times.There is a stone bridge on the river built across the river, named "Spring Bridge". According to the oldest old man in the town, this "Spring Bridge" existed when his grandfather was a child, and the town is named after this stone bridge. The name of the bridge is called Chunqiao Town.
Just after the vernal equinox, green ducks swim on the Chunshui River, tent boats pass by, weeping willows grow tender on both sides of the river, willow flowers roll in snow, grass grows and warblers fly, painted bridges and flowing water are everywhere.
On the south bank of the Chunshui River, there is a tavern called "Chunfeng Wine Shop", which is the largest tavern in Chunqiao Town. beg.
But it was in the afternoon at this time, the business of the restaurant had not yet opened, the chef and shopkeeper had not yet started work, only a waiter waiter was left to watch the shop.
The spring sun is warm and the wind is hypnotic. Xiaoer sits on the door table, rests his chin on his hands, and is taking a spring nap happily.
Suddenly, there was a horse neighing outside the door, waking Xiao Er up from his sweet dream. Xiao Er rubbed his eyes, looked up in a daze, and was immediately dumbfounded on the spot.
A snow-white steed without half a hair stopped at the door at some point, turned over from the horse's back and jumped off a person.
But seeing this person, she was dressed in a flawless snow suit, with fairy gauze feathers, black hair flowing in the wind, blending and dyeing the sparkling spring light, her face was picturesque, her peach blossom eyes were full of affection, she was such an elegant beauty.
Xiao Er's legs went limp, he slid down from the chair with a snap, fell on his back, and got up quickly with all his hands and feet, his eyes lit up, staring at the "beauty" in front of him and stammering: "No, I don't know." Immortals and fairies are coming to the shop, do you have any orders?"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Er felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the "fairy" came to him in the blink of an eye, pulled out a folding fan and slammed on Xiao Er's forehead: "What did you say?!"
Xiao Er clutched his painful forehead and opened his staring eyes with all his might, only then did he see clearly that the "fairy" in front of him was tall, with stern eyebrows and a deep voice, just like a man.
"Little, little eyesight, this old man, Li, Li, please!"
The man in white snorted coldly, turned around and approached the wine shop, chose a seat by the window and sat down, with one foot still carelessly stepping on the stool, opened the folding fan in his hand with a snap, swayed it, and shouted: "After driving for a day, I'm dying of thirst, Xiao Er, first make a pot of good tea for Grandpa, then prepare a table of side dishes, and serve two pots of good wine."
Xiao Er was quite frightened, nodded and bowed in agreement, and ran to the back kitchen for a while to explain, and after a while, brought out a pot of tea.
But as soon as he stepped out of the kitchen door, Xiao Er was so shocked that he almost threw the teapot in his hand.
But seeing that the restaurant was still empty just now, the room was full of people at this time, and all of them had big arms, round waists, swords straddling the waist, fierce spirits, and murderous looks on their faces, and the center of the murderous look was the man in white just now.
But the man in white didn't seem to be aware of it, he still looked like he was doing nothing, leisurely waving his fan, knocking on the table with his fingers, suddenly turned his head, squinted at Xiao Er, displeased He shouted, "Little Er, why aren't you serving tea yet?"
Immediately, all the people in the room looked at Xiao Er.
Xiao Er was trembling all over, sweating wildly, his calf convulsed, trembling, carrying the teapot to the table of the man in white, just as he put the teapot on the table, he heard the clanging of swords and weapons behind him, and several roars One after another: "Take your life!"
"I fought with you!"
"Kill him!"
Several gusts of wind suddenly struck over with whirring noises.
Xiao Er screamed and rolled to the ground with her head in her arms.
Five black-faced men with chest hair exposed leaped forward with steel knives, and slashed at the white-clothed man with their heads and faces covered. There were also several big men surrounding the periphery, clamoring and waiting for an opportunity to attack.
The man in white squinted his peachy eyes, slapped the table with his palm, and turned around. The flowing snow shirt drew a dazzling arc in the air, and the two white boots flew out alternately, kicking the faces of the five big men. But after hearing a burst of wailing, the five sweaters were kicked far away with their knives, smashing three tables before barely stopping.
There was a dead silence in the hall, and all the vicious men in the room couldn't help but backed up a few steps, their faces were shocked, and they didn't even dare to breathe out.
The man in white sat down gracefully, still with one foot on the stool, slowly shaking the folding fan with one hand, and filling himself with a cup of tea with the teapot in the other, took a sip slowly, turned his head to look at the crowd and said: "I have entered this town from now on, everyone Just follow me, what advice do you have?"
There was silence and no one answered.
The man in white raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Are they all deaf?"
Still no answer.
The peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and the man in white tapped his fingers on the table, quite impatiently: "Don't say it? You're welcome if you don't say it!"
With this sentence, the voice suddenly rose, and I don't know what kind of kung fu the man in white used. The second child lying under the table felt pain in the eardrums, not to mention the other people in the hall, all of them were pale and trembling. .
"Don't think that you are good at martial arts, I, we are afraid of you! Today, even if I risk my life today, I, Niu Dashan, can't let the young master fall into the hands of you evildoer!"
Among the kicked five people, a leader-like sweat wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, got up with difficulty, pointed at the man in white and shouted angrily.
The corner of the man's mouth twitched, he put down his teacup with a snap, and looked coldly at the big man who called himself Niu Dashan, his voice was like a sharp knife: "What did you just say?"
"I, I said that I will kill you, a monster who kills thousands of swords, by thousands of swords!"
Before the words finished, a white light flashed in front of his eyes, and Niu Dashan's neck was cold, and a cold light lay across his neck.
The man in white came behind him at some point, and it was his own steel knife that was holding Niu Dashan's neck.
"Who do you say is a monster?!"
The voice was as cold as an ice knife, scraping the bone marrow of everyone.
"That's it, that's it, that's it..." Niu Dashan, who was so heroic just now, seemed to be sifting chaff, trembling uncontrollably.
The steel blade pressed against Niu Dashan's neck by half an inch, and he was about to cut his flesh and bleed him.
Suddenly, a person rushed in from outside the door, shouting loudly: "Master Bai Wu is merciful! It's all a misunderstanding!"
I saw the person coming, wearing a coarse cloth long gown, with a burly figure, a steel knife hanging in his waist, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a beard, and an anxious face.
"Who are you?" The man in white asked coldly.
The visitor clasped his fists together: "I am Luo Liang, the hall master of the Spring Breeze Hall. These are brothers under my hall. They have eyes but don't know Mount Tai, and offended Fifth Master Bai. Please don't be offended by Fifth Master Bai!"
Upon hearing this, Niu Dashan, who was being held up with a knife by the man in white, immediately turned pale, and asked with a trembling voice: "Tang, hall master, what did you call this, this is?"
Luo Liang let out a long sigh, glanced at the people around him with upside down eyebrows, and cursed angrily: "I knew something bad was going to happen when I read your Flying Pigeon letter, and it's just that I ask you to listen more to the world's affairs on weekdays." Don't listen, this is the fifth island owner of Trapped Sky Island, Bai Yutang Bai Wuye, who is known as Chinchilla in the Jianghu. Kill me too!!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the room was dumbfounded, and all the weapons in their hands fell to the ground, clanging together.
Niu Dashan, who was captured by the man in white, knelt down on the ground, looked up at the man, and said dumbfounded: "You, you are Bai Yutang Bai Wuye?"
The man in white raised his eyebrows and unfolded the jade bone fan with a snap.
On the fan surface, the seven big characters "I am the only one in the world" painted with silver hooks on iron are particularly dazzling in the bright spring.
"Really, really Fifth Master Bai?!"
The several big men in the room were stunned, and after a while, they couldn't help looking at their hall master.
Luo Liang, the master of the Spring Breeze Hall, wiped his face, and suddenly raised his arms and called out: "Wu Wu Ye is a well-known knight-errant who sees injustice and draws his sword to help justice. Brothers, Wu Ye Bai is our great savior sent by heaven!!"
This voice suddenly made everyone in the room wake up from a dream, their spirits revived, their eyes swished and shot at Bai Yutang in unison, the green light flickered, like wolves and tigers.
Bai Yutang fought coldly for no reason, and couldn't help but take half a step back, as if facing a big enemy: "What are you going to do?!"
"Fifth Master Bai!!"
All of a sudden, this group of big men shouted loudly, and surrounded Bai Yutang in a huff, scrambling to jump at Bai Yutang's feet, hugging his thighs, dragging his waist, pulling his arms, and even They even grabbed Bai Yutang's belt tightly, howling incessantly, "Fifth Bai, you must save our young hall master!"
"Fifth Bai, you are a well-known knight-errant in the Jianghu world, you must not leave him alone!"
"Fifth Master!"
Although this group of big men are not good at martial arts, they are all extremely strong and weigh as much as a cow. Bai Yutang didn't check for a while and was trapped, and after struggling for a while, he seemed to be like a muddy cow in the sea, unable to move even a little bit.
Thus, in the Spring Breeze Winery, there was a strange scene of a group of thick and sturdy men crying and howling, dragging a handsome beauty in white with livid complexion and bulging veins on her forehead.
"What the hell is going on?!" Bai Yutang's angry voice went straight into the sky.
Later, there were rumors in the world that the lion's roar of Chinchilla in the Sky Island had reached its peak, and with just one voice, it would surely make people bleed from the seven orifices and die.
-
Spring Breeze Hall, a fifth-rate small sect in Jianghu, the entire sect does not have more than 50 people, the hall master Luo Liang, martial arts is low, and the ranking of martial arts in Jianghu... is estimated to be in the bottom few.Not to mention his subordinates, they barely managed to occupy a place in this Chunqiao town because of their burly stature, fierce appearance, and extraordinary strength. , That's why there was an oolong that even the famous Chinchilla Bai Yutang didn't know.
At this time, Bai Yutang was sitting on the head seat of the main hall of the Spring Breeze Hall, holding a piece of letter paper with raised eyebrows, while reading it, he slowly read out the contents of the letter paper: "Su Wen, the young master of the Spring Breeze Hall, Luo Xi, has a beautiful appearance. Beautiful, Tsinghua is like jade, and Guiwang Pavilion has been admired for a long time. Today, I invite the master Luo Shao of Spring Breeze Hall to go to Guiwang Pavilion to taste tea and enjoy the moon on the ninth day of February. At three o'clock in Haishi, I will pass the government in a light sedan chair. Welcome, Master Wang, please don't refuse. All the members of the Guiwang Pavilion are looking forward to you, sweeping the couch and waiting."
After Bai Yutang finished reading, he turned over the letter paper in his hand and looked at it carefully, but saw a branch of tender pink peach blossom painted on the back of the snow-white letter paper, with a faint fragrance, quite elegant.
"Speaking elegantly and punching with sincerity, what's wrong?" Bai Yutang asked with raised eyebrows.
"Of course not!" Luo Liang leaned forward, pointed at the inscription stamp on the letterhead and said loudly, "This, this is an invitation from Guiwang Pavilion!"
"Guiwang Pavilion?" Bai Yutang frowned, slightly puzzled, "Where is it?"
"Fifth Master, it's not surprising that you don't know." The big man next to Luo Liang, who was the deputy head of the Chunfeng Hall who took the lead in cutting down the Baiyu Hall before, said, "This Guiwang Pavilion was only in Bianjing in the last two months. There are mysterious sects haunting nearby, acting surreptitiously, and their whereabouts are unknown, if not for the brothers in our hall who tried their best to find out after receiving this invitation, I am afraid that we would not know that there are such scum in the Jianghu."
"The past two months?" Bai Yutang was stunned, and picked up the tea bowl, "No wonder, I went back to the empty island for the New Year in the past two months, and I was not in Bianjing." After a pause, he asked, "What did Guiwangge do? Is it just an invitation that makes you so nervous?"
As soon as these words came out, Luo Liang and Niu Dashan's faces were full of righteous indignation.
"The heinous crimes committed by Guiwang Pavilion are beyond words!" Luo Liang said angrily, "They, they are brazenly robbing good women and men!"
"Pfft——" Bai Yutang spewed out the tea that he had just swallowed, coughed dryly for a few times before he recovered his breath, his peach blossom eyes widened, and his expression was in disbelief, "What did you just say? Robbing a good housewife... a man?! "
"That's right!!" The two people on the opposite side nodded angrily.
"Hey, that—" Bai Yutang couldn't laugh or cry, "It's usually not about robbing women from good families..."
"Hey!" Niu Dashan frowned and shook his head, "Fifth Bai, it's not the same now as before. In the past, those thieves liked beautiful women, but now this Guiwang Pavilion prefers handsome men! There are already five houses in the three surrounding counties and towns. The handsome son was murdered by him!"
"Furthermore, Guiwangge's actions are quite bold. Every time before committing a crime, they will send out such invitations to the target, and clearly write in black and white when they will come to snatch them! It's really deceiving!" Luo Liang slapped the desktop. , shouted angrily.
"Are they really following the time on this post?" Bai Yutang asked with raised eyebrows, rubbing his chin.
"It's not too late!" Luo Liang said.
"It's really weird..." Bai Yutang muttered, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Why didn't you report to the authorities?"
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Bai Yutang had an expression of biting his tongue before waiting for the reaction of the two people on the other side.
Bah, bah, bah, it turns out that those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black!It's all because of the stinky cat yelling "the government, the government" in his ears every day, which caused Wu Ye to say such words that are not in line with Wu Ye's heroic demeanor.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan didn't know the twists and turns in Bai Yutang's heart, but when they heard Bai Yutang's words, their faces became more depressed.
"Of course I have to report to the official! But I am afraid that reporting to the official is useless—" Luo Liang sighed, "Except for the first family, the other four families who were robbed all reported to the official, but those places Where can the government's wine bags and rice bags catch people? They have returned without success every time. I heard that the town has reported this case to Kaifeng Mansion. I don't know when Master Bao of Kaifeng Mansion will send someone to investigate—in case The people from Kaifeng mansion haven't come yet, so Guiwang Pavilion came first, then, that young hall master... oh!"
"Kaifeng Mansion——" Bai Yutang curled up one corner of his lips, with a look of disdain, "So what if people from Kaifeng Mansion come? I think that Kaifeng Mansion is just a bunch of wine bags and rice bags. If you count on them, it's better..."
"Brother Bai, the merits of the Taoist behind the scenes are not the actions of a gentleman."
Bai Yutang had just finished speaking, when he was interrupted by a clear voice from outside the door. Although the voice was not loud, every word was resonant.
A young servant ran in first, and shouted loudly: "Hall Master, Kaifeng Mansion—"
"Smelly cat! Eavesdropping behind your back is a villain's behavior!" But Bai Yutang didn't let the boy finish the second part of his sentence, as if he was on fire, he jumped up and grinned towards the door.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were already dumbfounded at this moment, staring at Bai Yutang, who had just looked like an outsider, but now he yelled at the people outside the door like a little white mouse whose tail was trampled on.
I saw a person walking in with the wind outside the door, wearing a blue shirt like azure, a moonlight belt, a body like bamboo, a face like a crown of jade, black eyes and cold stars, an ancient sword in his hand, and the bright yellow sword tassels swaying gently with the wind, what a good one Handsome young knight.
The man in the blue shirt naturally ignored the little white mouse that exploded his hair, entered the room and stood still, he cupped his fists at Luo Liang and Niu Dashan, and said in a loud voice: "Zhan Zhao of Kaifeng Mansion was ordered by Mr. Bao to come to help capture the people in Guiwang Pavilion. Bring to justice."
"Kai, Kaifeng mansion?"
"Zhan, Zhan Zhao?!"
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses, and exclaimed in unison with flattered faces: "You, you are Nan Xia Zhan Zhao?!"
"It's Zhan." Zhan Zhao smiled slightly.
For a moment, the two of them seemed to be in a trance for a while as if they saw the dreamy color of rain, sunshine and cloud, and the scene of moonlight and wind.
However, this dreamlike scene didn't last long. In the next moment, a disgruntled white mouse appeared and said angrily, "I'll take care of Mr. Bai Wu, you can go back, stinky cat." !"
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, and said calmly, "Brother Bai, this is a matter for the government, it's better for Brother Bai not to get involved."
"Fifth Master, I want to take care of it!" Bai Yutang raised his peachy eyes.
"Brother Bai, don't make trouble..."
"Smelly cat, you are the one who gets in the way!"
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan looked at each other for a while, and then remembered that the "cat" and "mouse" seemed to be a famous mismatch, and hurriedly rushed forward, one at a time, persuading each other: "Master Zhan, please sit down and rest, drink some tea. .”
"Fifth Master Bai, please be safe and don't be impatient. Now that Mr. Zhan is helping you, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!"
It's good that Bai Yutang didn't listen, but when he heard it, he became furious and shouted angrily: "Fifth Master, I still need a stinky cat to help?! Fifth Master, I can deal with Guiwang Pavilion alone!"
"According to what Brother Bai said, is it sure to capture the group of Guiwang Pavilion?!" Zhan Zhao asked after taking his seat.
"That's natural!" Bai Yutang sat back in his seat, folded his arms and said confidently.
"Zhan would like to hear more about it." Zhan Zhao picked up the tea bowl and scratched the tea lid, "If Brother Bai's countermeasures are really foolproof, Zhan should stand aside and let Brother Bai show his skills."
Bai Yutang sneered: "What's so difficult about this? Since the thief is so bold, he will act according to the time and place on the invitation. Why not set up multiple ambushes inside and outside your young master's house, and wait for the thief to show up?" Wouldn't it be enough to coax him up and capture him?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the room sighed.
Zhan Zhao lowered his eyes, smiled slightly, and slowly shook his head.
"Smelly cat, what are you laughing at?" Bai Yutang looked unhappy.
"Brother Bai's strategy is feasible if it is normal, but it is a pity that it is not appropriate to use it against Guiwang Pavilion." Zhan Zhao raised his eyes and said seriously.
"What do you mean?" Bai Yutang narrowed his eyes.
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang with dark eyes, and said seriously: "Guiwangge committed five crimes in two months, except for the first one who was a farmer's boy, the last four were all sons of famous families in the county and town. The people are quite friendly. After these four families received the post, they all felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. In addition to the reporter, they also invited many guards and martial arts experts to protect their young master. The last family even invited nearly a hundred people. As soon as the thieves from Guiwang Pavilion showed up, they were all helpless, watching helplessly as the young master under heavy protection was robbed."
"The fifth master is not those cats and dogs in the rivers and lakes!" Bai Yutang glanced at Zhan Zhao, sneered, arrogant, "The only person in the rivers and lakes who can get out of the fifth master's sword for thirty rounds, except for a certain stinky cat , I really can’t find a few!”
"What if you can't even pull out the sword?!" Zhan Zhao asked with a frightened expression.
Bai Yutang frowned, and Taohua's eyes flashed sharply: "Could it be that the man from Guiwang Pavilion is so skilled?"
Zhan Zhao shook his head: "It's not because of his skill, but because he can't fight them."
"How do you say it?" Bai Yutang changed his self-confidence just now, and his handsome face showed a serious expression.
"From the testimonies of the five victims, they all said that as soon as the person from Guiwangge showed up, everyone couldn't move at all, not to mention protecting others, even if they couldn't protect them." Zhan Zhao said in a deep voice.
"It's so powerful?!" Bai Yutang's peach blossom eyes widened, slightly surprised, "Could it be some kind of advanced acupuncture?"
Zhan Zhao frowned: "Zhan once asked several martial arts masters who participated in the protection, and they all said that at that time, except for the body being as hard as a rock, there was nothing unusual. The blood vessels in the whole body were smooth, and the internal energy was running as usual. It was definitely not acupuncture."
"Yes, yes!" Niu Dashan on the side looked terrified, moved forward, and said in a low voice, "Those families said that the evil gate of Guiwang Pavilion must have been changed by a demon, so Only in this way can he cast a spell on others and grab handsome men to absorb Yang Qi. Those young masters who were taken away were all in a trance after they came back, and they didn't think about food and drink. They were skinny and skinny after a few days, so they must be returned to the Wang Pavilion The goblin has sucked away the yang energy, so he will die soon."
"Yaomei? Absorb Yang Qi?!" Bai Yutang rolled his eyes, "It's ridiculous!"
"The theory of demons and demons is groundless and unreliable!" Zhan Zhao also said disapprovingly.
"You two don't believe me?!" Niu Dashan's eyes were wide open, his voice trembling, "The people from the Guiwang Pavilion came late at night, they were like ghosts, all of them were dressed in white, and their appearance was as beautiful and picturesque as Chang'e's descending to the earth. ...No, no, it's simply the reincarnation of a vixen..."
"Ahem!" Luo Liang on the side suddenly coughed several times, interrupting Niu Dashan.
Niu Dashan was taken aback for a moment, but he suddenly realized that he broke out in a cold sweat and looked at Bai Yutang tremblingly.
The room was silent.
But seeing the corners of Bai Yutang's eyes twitching wildly, a pair of peach blossom eyes stared fiercely at the two people opposite him, and his white teeth were grinding.
"Bai, Baibai Fifth Master...you, you, you...well, it was our poor eyesight in the tavern just now that mistook, mistook, mistook Bai Wuye for..." Niu Dashan's body was like a sieve, with black hair all over his chest. They all trembled into balls of thread.
"Ah!" Zhan Zhao seemed to think of something, and suddenly said, "When Zhan came, he heard the people on the street discussing that Chunfengtang had a fight with a person in a wine shop, calling evildoers, and saying that the trapped person was dressed in white, As beautiful as a fairy, it sounds a bit like the people in the Guiwang Pavilion dressed—" Speaking of this, Zhan Zhao looked at Luo Liang with a serious expression, "Master Luo, did you find the trace of the thief in the Guiwang Pavilion? "
Poor Luo Liang, the master of the Hall of Spring Breeze, how could he dare to answer half a word, cold sweat broke out from the corner of his forehead, he shrank his neck and hooked his chest, and kept silent like a cicada.
"Zhan! Zhao!" Bai Yutang gritted his silver teeth, jumped up, and pulled out the Huaying sword with a swipe. The sword light shone and shattered, and pointed directly at Zhan Zhao's eyebrows, "Come out and fight Bai Wuye for three hundred rounds! "
Zhan Zhao looked puzzled and innocent: "Brother Bai, why is this? But what offended Zhan?"
Bai Yutang didn't answer, but with a flick of the sword, it pierced Zhan Zhao's chest.
Zhan Zhao turned sideways, avoiding Bai Yutang's sword edge, spun violently, flew away from the seat, and spun down to the center of the hall. He looked up and down Bai Yutang, and suddenly said: "Zhan forgot for a while, Brother Bai also likes it." Wearing white clothes, his appearance... Could it be that the man in white clothes in the tavern just mentioned—”
"Smelly cat, die!" Bai Yutang became furious, and the sword in his hand was like a whirlwind, sweeping Zhan Zhao's body with a murderous aura.
Zhan Zhao's blue shadow was like lightning, and he dodged quickly. Although Bai Yutang's sword was tricky and had a strong killing intent, Zhan Zhao could dodge it every time.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were dumbfounded for the second time. They stared dumbfounded at the two figures, one white and one blue, flying one above the other to fight.
"Smelly cat, today I have you without me! I have you without me!"
"Brother Bai said that when a mouse sees a cat, it should indeed give up three points."
"Zhan Zhao, do you dare to say it again?!"
"Brother Bai has very good ears, he must be able to hear very clearly."
Bai Ying stopped suddenly, raging anger burst out from Tao Hua's eyes.
Shi Shiran of Lan Ying stopped, her expression remained the same, but her eyes did not budge.
The eyes of the two were fighting in the air, and the intensity was not inferior to the brawl just now. Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were sweating through their clothes, and they were afraid that they would suddenly go crazy and tear down the Spring Breeze Hall.
All of a sudden, Bai Yutang narrowed his peach blossom eyes, retracted his sword with a swipe, his murderous look disappeared suddenly, looked at Zhan Zhao with raised eyebrows and smiled, then strolled back to the hall in a big way, and sat down to drink tea.
When Zhan Zhao saw Bai Yutang's actions, he felt a little helpless, he sighed, and went back to the hall to sit down.
"Huh?" Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were even more confused at this moment, full of astonishment.
"Fifth Bai, you and Mr. Zhan, this is..." Luo Liang stepped forward and asked.
But Bai Yutang didn't seem to hear it, he cocked his feet, waving his Xiaoyao fan, and looked at Zhan Zhao with a smug face: "Smelly cat, if you want to find a way to get rid of Bai Wuye's anger and take credit for it, you're not good enough!"
Zhan Zhao smiled bitterly: "Brother Bai..."
"Hey, you stupid cat, you don't even want to say a word on weekdays, but today you have free time to argue with the fifth master, how can you not be suspicious? Cat, cat, if you talk about deceiving people , you are far worse than Xiao Jinzi!" Bai Yutang commented with a senior look on his face.
Zhan Zhao sighed helplessly.
"Fifth Master Bai, Lord Zhan, what kind of charades are you two doing again?" Niu Dashan asked with a puzzled expression.
"The cat of Kaifeng Mansion..." Bai Yutang glanced at Luo Liang and Niu Dashan, and sighed old-fashionedly, "I have a stinky problem! I just want to blame myself!"
"Ah?" Luo and Niu were puzzled.
Peach Blossom eyes shot at Zhan Zhao, with a proud look on his face: "Zhan Zhao, I have never been afraid of anyone since Bai Yutang was in the rivers and lakes. Even if it is a dragon's lake and a tiger's den, I dare to break into it! Are you afraid of someone who is not good enough?" Returning to Wang Pavilion?!"
Zhan Zhao frowned: "This Guiwang Pavilion is acting strangely..."
"so what?"
"Zhan is afraid of Brother Bai..."
"Bai Yutang is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?!"
A sharp light flashed in Taohua's eyes, and she stared straight at Zhan Zhao's face with awe, handsome and arrogant, arrogant in white clothes, domineering and arrogant.
Zhan Zhao's expression moved slightly, his brows widened, his black eyes flickered with brilliance, he fixedly stared at Bai Yutang for a long while, then suddenly he sighed with his hands on his forehead: "Zhan is really afraid of getting into trouble, Brother Bai—"
"Zhan Zhao!" Bai Yutang jumped up, his face flushed with anger, "Don't you understand..."
"The Guiwang Pavilion only picks handsome men. Brother Bai's appearance is astonishing, comparable to Chang'e, better than a demon, Zhanmou is really scary..." Zhan Zhao said with a deep sigh.
The room was dead silent.
Bai Yutang's peach-blossom eyes were wide open, and his mouth was tongue-tied.
Luo Liang nodded, Niu Dashan turned his face away, his shoulders trembled suspiciously.
After a long while, Bai Yutang came back to his senses, his face twitching, "Zhan Zhao!"
Zhan Zhao shook his robe and stood up, cupped his fists towards Bai Yutang, and smiled comfortably: "This time, I will trouble Brother Bai to help me out!"
The black eyes are clear, the jade face is radiant, the light smile is better than the wine, and the flowers are blooming in spring.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were in a trance again.
In a blink of an eye, Bai Yutang rubbed his nose uncomfortably, and muttered to himself, "You should be careful..."
-
The moon is melting in the quiet courtyard of pear blossoms, and the breeze is light in the catkin pond;
The spring scenery makes people sleepless, and the clouds move and the shadows of flowers climb on the railing.
In the courtyard behind the Spring Breeze Hall, and around the gazebo, a group of burly men stood in a circle with steel knives in their hands, as if they were facing an enemy, in a tight protection state.
As for the three people in the gazebo, one sat leisurely, one walked around the ground, and the other scratched his head.
"What kind of shabby plan of 'Li Daitao is stiff, hides the mountains and crosses the sea, goes deep into the enemy's territory, directly hits Huanglong, and catches them all in one go', smelly cat, you are putting yourself in danger, and you are going to die for nothing!"
"Yes, Mr. Zhan!" Luo Liang on the side also had a disturbed face, wiping cold sweat, "Let Mr. Zhan take the place of the little one, if, if there is a contingency, Luo will be to blame for his death!"
Sitting upright at the stone table beside him, Zhan Zhao closed his eyes and meditated, slowly opened his eyes, and replied in a flat voice, "Brother Bai, please be safe and don't be impatient, Zhan has a reason for his plan."
"Fuck the truth!" Bai Yutang sat opposite Zhan Zhao holding his sword angrily, his brows were erect and his face was gloomy, "You also said that Guiwangge is acting weirdly, and the sect is tight, what if they really have some weird way to shape people? , you are captured and have no power to protect yourself, don’t you just let me fish you?!”
Zhan Zhao raised his black eyes, glanced at Bai Yutang, and smiled slightly: "Zhan believes that brother Bai is superb in martial arts, and his lightness kung fu is peerless, so he will be able to rescue Zhan from the fire."
Bai Yutang almost choked to death with a mouthful of depressed blood: "If the fifth master is also immobilized and unable to move at all, how can I save you?"
"Brother Bai, don't worry." Zhan Zhao smiled lightly, took out a bamboo tube from his bosom, poured out two black balls, took out one and handed it to Bai Yutang, and swallowed the other himself, saying, "Zhan once After careful questioning of the victim's family members, they all said that when the Guiwangge people appeared, they smelled a strong fragrance, and then they became stiff and unable to move. After the Guiwangge people left, the fragrance disappeared for about a stick After the fragrance, you can act as usual again. Mr. Gongsun speculated that the fragrance should be a kind of ecstasy, so Zhan brought two pills of Jin Xiaowei's Wanshi Daji pills. worry."
"Little Jinzi's pills!" Bai Yutang's eyes lit up, he immediately stuffed it into his mouth, gulped down his stomach, then suddenly recalled it, looked at Zhan Zhao for a while, puffed up his cheeks, "Stinky cat, why don't you say it during the day?" , causing Fifth Master... to worry for a long time."
The words "I've been worried for a long time" are almost in my mouth, blurred.
Zhan Zhao smiled apologetically: "The matter of the misty fragrance is Mr. Gongsun's speculation. Zhan is not very sure yet, so he is really worried about putting Brother Bai in danger..."
"Okay, okay, fifth master knows you, mother-in-law cat." Bai Yutang waved his hands disapprovingly, and continued to ask, "How will we arrange it later?"
"After Zhan is taken away by the people from Guiwang Pavilion, Brother Bai only needs to follow him to find the thief's den in Guiwang Pavilion, and leave a mark for the government servants who are lurking outside the courtyard. Mature, using fireworks as a name, cooperate with Zhan, and we will definitely catch them all!" Zhan Zhao said seriously.
"That's pretty safe." Bai Yutang nodded.
Luo Liang, who was on the side, looked at the two of them, and suddenly asked, "Master Zhan, is there any extra pills for our brothers in the hall to take, so that we can also be a helper to Bai Wuye?" ah!"
Having said that, Bai Yutang suddenly woke up, and hurriedly asked, "Cat, why don't you bring Xiao Jinzi, with Xiao Jinzi in charge, why are you afraid of the scent of God Ma Laoshizi?!"
"This..." Zhan Zhao lowered his eyelashes and coughed dryly, "Lieutenant Jin doesn't know anything about this case."
"Huh?" Bai Yutang wondered.
"Here, the Wang Pavilion is delighted to capture a handsome man. Zhan is afraid that if Captain Jin comes with him, if he is caught..."
"Huh?!" Bai Yutang rolled his eyes contemptuously, "Mao'er, you are worrying too much. With Xiao Jinzi's virtue, he can't even be considered pretty. How could he be favored by Guiwang Pavilion?"
Zhan Zhao sighed lightly, and raised his eyes: "Did Brother Bai forget about Hangzhou?"
As soon as these words came out, Bai Yutang immediately fell silent, Junyan let out a deep voice, and after a moment of silence, he nodded solemnly and said: "That's right, Xiao Jinzi should not get involved with any messy cases recently." Speaking of this, Bai Yutang thought for a while, then frowned and asked, "The cat, you should also ask for a few more pills just in case—"
Zhan Zhao heaved a long sigh: "Zhan was afraid that if he went to ask Captain Jin to ask for the medicine, it would make him suspicious. If he asked, Zhan... Zhan had to ask Mr. Gongsun to ask for it in the name of researching the medicine. Unexpectedly, Captain Jin But he said that the material of this pill was expensive and very rare, and he cried and cried, and he only gave two pills..."
"..."
"..."
The cold wind whizzed by.
"This Captain Jin is a strange person..." Luo Liangnuo said.
"Little Jinzi is too stingy..." Bai Yutang supported his forehead.
Zhan Zhao sighed helplessly, cupped his fists at Bai Yutang, and said solemnly, "This case—I have to rely more on Brother Bai."
Bai Yutang returned to the suave knight-errant mode again, and smiled at Zhanzhao Pippi: "Don't worry, cat, Fifth Master will protect you well even if you go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of fire!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a dead silence in the courtyard.
The swaying spring breeze sweeps across the stiff figures of the spring breeze hall inside and outside the pavilion in the courtyard.
One blue and one white looked at each other from a distance, with cat eyes and mouse eyes, the atmosphere was extremely weird.
Bai Yutang's head was full of black lines, secretly biting his tongue:
Bah, bah, bah, fifth master, why did I say the words that Xiao Jinzi used to flatter me? Oops, it really is that those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black!
Zhan Zhaojun's face twitched, and he said stiffly, "Thank you, Brother Bai."
"Well, it's easy to talk about it." Bai Yutang replied with a stiff face.
Luo Liang glanced at this and that, feeling his scalp numb and his back feeling cold. He took a few steps out of the gazebo and said with a smile, "I'll go and see...that...haha, I won't bother you two..."
After all, he disappeared without a trace.
A cat and a mouse in the gazebo, one looked around uncomfortably, and the other looked down into concentration, really embarrassed, but fortunately, the awkward atmosphere didn't last for a long time, and it didn't take long for it to be the three quarters of the day.
-
The moonlight is cool, and the shadows of the trees overlap.
Outside the wall of the backyard of Chunfengtang, there were gradually trivial footsteps, subtle and shallow, which could only be made by people with light kung fu.
But listening to the footsteps walking slowly outside the backyard wall, there was a soft drink:
"Guiwang Pavilion came to welcome Luo Xi, the young master of Spring Breeze Hall.
-
The flowers in the spring forest are so charming, the birds sing in the green trees in spring,
The spring breeze is full of passion, and the spring is warm and the country is beautiful.
Thirty miles outside Bianjing City, there is a small town with a tributary of the Bian River meandering through the town. People in the town have called this small river "Chunshui River" since ancient times.There is a stone bridge on the river built across the river, named "Spring Bridge". According to the oldest old man in the town, this "Spring Bridge" existed when his grandfather was a child, and the town is named after this stone bridge. The name of the bridge is called Chunqiao Town.
Just after the vernal equinox, green ducks swim on the Chunshui River, tent boats pass by, weeping willows grow tender on both sides of the river, willow flowers roll in snow, grass grows and warblers fly, painted bridges and flowing water are everywhere.
On the south bank of the Chunshui River, there is a tavern called "Chunfeng Wine Shop", which is the largest tavern in Chunqiao Town. beg.
But it was in the afternoon at this time, the business of the restaurant had not yet opened, the chef and shopkeeper had not yet started work, only a waiter waiter was left to watch the shop.
The spring sun is warm and the wind is hypnotic. Xiaoer sits on the door table, rests his chin on his hands, and is taking a spring nap happily.
Suddenly, there was a horse neighing outside the door, waking Xiao Er up from his sweet dream. Xiao Er rubbed his eyes, looked up in a daze, and was immediately dumbfounded on the spot.
A snow-white steed without half a hair stopped at the door at some point, turned over from the horse's back and jumped off a person.
But seeing this person, she was dressed in a flawless snow suit, with fairy gauze feathers, black hair flowing in the wind, blending and dyeing the sparkling spring light, her face was picturesque, her peach blossom eyes were full of affection, she was such an elegant beauty.
Xiao Er's legs went limp, he slid down from the chair with a snap, fell on his back, and got up quickly with all his hands and feet, his eyes lit up, staring at the "beauty" in front of him and stammering: "No, I don't know." Immortals and fairies are coming to the shop, do you have any orders?"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Er felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the "fairy" came to him in the blink of an eye, pulled out a folding fan and slammed on Xiao Er's forehead: "What did you say?!"
Xiao Er clutched his painful forehead and opened his staring eyes with all his might, only then did he see clearly that the "fairy" in front of him was tall, with stern eyebrows and a deep voice, just like a man.
"Little, little eyesight, this old man, Li, Li, please!"
The man in white snorted coldly, turned around and approached the wine shop, chose a seat by the window and sat down, with one foot still carelessly stepping on the stool, opened the folding fan in his hand with a snap, swayed it, and shouted: "After driving for a day, I'm dying of thirst, Xiao Er, first make a pot of good tea for Grandpa, then prepare a table of side dishes, and serve two pots of good wine."
Xiao Er was quite frightened, nodded and bowed in agreement, and ran to the back kitchen for a while to explain, and after a while, brought out a pot of tea.
But as soon as he stepped out of the kitchen door, Xiao Er was so shocked that he almost threw the teapot in his hand.
But seeing that the restaurant was still empty just now, the room was full of people at this time, and all of them had big arms, round waists, swords straddling the waist, fierce spirits, and murderous looks on their faces, and the center of the murderous look was the man in white just now.
But the man in white didn't seem to be aware of it, he still looked like he was doing nothing, leisurely waving his fan, knocking on the table with his fingers, suddenly turned his head, squinted at Xiao Er, displeased He shouted, "Little Er, why aren't you serving tea yet?"
Immediately, all the people in the room looked at Xiao Er.
Xiao Er was trembling all over, sweating wildly, his calf convulsed, trembling, carrying the teapot to the table of the man in white, just as he put the teapot on the table, he heard the clanging of swords and weapons behind him, and several roars One after another: "Take your life!"
"I fought with you!"
"Kill him!"
Several gusts of wind suddenly struck over with whirring noises.
Xiao Er screamed and rolled to the ground with her head in her arms.
Five black-faced men with chest hair exposed leaped forward with steel knives, and slashed at the white-clothed man with their heads and faces covered. There were also several big men surrounding the periphery, clamoring and waiting for an opportunity to attack.
The man in white squinted his peachy eyes, slapped the table with his palm, and turned around. The flowing snow shirt drew a dazzling arc in the air, and the two white boots flew out alternately, kicking the faces of the five big men. But after hearing a burst of wailing, the five sweaters were kicked far away with their knives, smashing three tables before barely stopping.
There was a dead silence in the hall, and all the vicious men in the room couldn't help but backed up a few steps, their faces were shocked, and they didn't even dare to breathe out.
The man in white sat down gracefully, still with one foot on the stool, slowly shaking the folding fan with one hand, and filling himself with a cup of tea with the teapot in the other, took a sip slowly, turned his head to look at the crowd and said: "I have entered this town from now on, everyone Just follow me, what advice do you have?"
There was silence and no one answered.
The man in white raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Are they all deaf?"
Still no answer.
The peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and the man in white tapped his fingers on the table, quite impatiently: "Don't say it? You're welcome if you don't say it!"
With this sentence, the voice suddenly rose, and I don't know what kind of kung fu the man in white used. The second child lying under the table felt pain in the eardrums, not to mention the other people in the hall, all of them were pale and trembling. .
"Don't think that you are good at martial arts, I, we are afraid of you! Today, even if I risk my life today, I, Niu Dashan, can't let the young master fall into the hands of you evildoer!"
Among the kicked five people, a leader-like sweat wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, got up with difficulty, pointed at the man in white and shouted angrily.
The corner of the man's mouth twitched, he put down his teacup with a snap, and looked coldly at the big man who called himself Niu Dashan, his voice was like a sharp knife: "What did you just say?"
"I, I said that I will kill you, a monster who kills thousands of swords, by thousands of swords!"
Before the words finished, a white light flashed in front of his eyes, and Niu Dashan's neck was cold, and a cold light lay across his neck.
The man in white came behind him at some point, and it was his own steel knife that was holding Niu Dashan's neck.
"Who do you say is a monster?!"
The voice was as cold as an ice knife, scraping the bone marrow of everyone.
"That's it, that's it, that's it..." Niu Dashan, who was so heroic just now, seemed to be sifting chaff, trembling uncontrollably.
The steel blade pressed against Niu Dashan's neck by half an inch, and he was about to cut his flesh and bleed him.
Suddenly, a person rushed in from outside the door, shouting loudly: "Master Bai Wu is merciful! It's all a misunderstanding!"
I saw the person coming, wearing a coarse cloth long gown, with a burly figure, a steel knife hanging in his waist, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a beard, and an anxious face.
"Who are you?" The man in white asked coldly.
The visitor clasped his fists together: "I am Luo Liang, the hall master of the Spring Breeze Hall. These are brothers under my hall. They have eyes but don't know Mount Tai, and offended Fifth Master Bai. Please don't be offended by Fifth Master Bai!"
Upon hearing this, Niu Dashan, who was being held up with a knife by the man in white, immediately turned pale, and asked with a trembling voice: "Tang, hall master, what did you call this, this is?"
Luo Liang let out a long sigh, glanced at the people around him with upside down eyebrows, and cursed angrily: "I knew something bad was going to happen when I read your Flying Pigeon letter, and it's just that I ask you to listen more to the world's affairs on weekdays." Don't listen, this is the fifth island owner of Trapped Sky Island, Bai Yutang Bai Wuye, who is known as Chinchilla in the Jianghu. Kill me too!!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the room was dumbfounded, and all the weapons in their hands fell to the ground, clanging together.
Niu Dashan, who was captured by the man in white, knelt down on the ground, looked up at the man, and said dumbfounded: "You, you are Bai Yutang Bai Wuye?"
The man in white raised his eyebrows and unfolded the jade bone fan with a snap.
On the fan surface, the seven big characters "I am the only one in the world" painted with silver hooks on iron are particularly dazzling in the bright spring.
"Really, really Fifth Master Bai?!"
The several big men in the room were stunned, and after a while, they couldn't help looking at their hall master.
Luo Liang, the master of the Spring Breeze Hall, wiped his face, and suddenly raised his arms and called out: "Wu Wu Ye is a well-known knight-errant who sees injustice and draws his sword to help justice. Brothers, Wu Ye Bai is our great savior sent by heaven!!"
This voice suddenly made everyone in the room wake up from a dream, their spirits revived, their eyes swished and shot at Bai Yutang in unison, the green light flickered, like wolves and tigers.
Bai Yutang fought coldly for no reason, and couldn't help but take half a step back, as if facing a big enemy: "What are you going to do?!"
"Fifth Master Bai!!"
All of a sudden, this group of big men shouted loudly, and surrounded Bai Yutang in a huff, scrambling to jump at Bai Yutang's feet, hugging his thighs, dragging his waist, pulling his arms, and even They even grabbed Bai Yutang's belt tightly, howling incessantly, "Fifth Bai, you must save our young hall master!"
"Fifth Bai, you are a well-known knight-errant in the Jianghu world, you must not leave him alone!"
"Fifth Master!"
Although this group of big men are not good at martial arts, they are all extremely strong and weigh as much as a cow. Bai Yutang didn't check for a while and was trapped, and after struggling for a while, he seemed to be like a muddy cow in the sea, unable to move even a little bit.
Thus, in the Spring Breeze Winery, there was a strange scene of a group of thick and sturdy men crying and howling, dragging a handsome beauty in white with livid complexion and bulging veins on her forehead.
"What the hell is going on?!" Bai Yutang's angry voice went straight into the sky.
Later, there were rumors in the world that the lion's roar of Chinchilla in the Sky Island had reached its peak, and with just one voice, it would surely make people bleed from the seven orifices and die.
-
Spring Breeze Hall, a fifth-rate small sect in Jianghu, the entire sect does not have more than 50 people, the hall master Luo Liang, martial arts is low, and the ranking of martial arts in Jianghu... is estimated to be in the bottom few.Not to mention his subordinates, they barely managed to occupy a place in this Chunqiao town because of their burly stature, fierce appearance, and extraordinary strength. , That's why there was an oolong that even the famous Chinchilla Bai Yutang didn't know.
At this time, Bai Yutang was sitting on the head seat of the main hall of the Spring Breeze Hall, holding a piece of letter paper with raised eyebrows, while reading it, he slowly read out the contents of the letter paper: "Su Wen, the young master of the Spring Breeze Hall, Luo Xi, has a beautiful appearance. Beautiful, Tsinghua is like jade, and Guiwang Pavilion has been admired for a long time. Today, I invite the master Luo Shao of Spring Breeze Hall to go to Guiwang Pavilion to taste tea and enjoy the moon on the ninth day of February. At three o'clock in Haishi, I will pass the government in a light sedan chair. Welcome, Master Wang, please don't refuse. All the members of the Guiwang Pavilion are looking forward to you, sweeping the couch and waiting."
After Bai Yutang finished reading, he turned over the letter paper in his hand and looked at it carefully, but saw a branch of tender pink peach blossom painted on the back of the snow-white letter paper, with a faint fragrance, quite elegant.
"Speaking elegantly and punching with sincerity, what's wrong?" Bai Yutang asked with raised eyebrows.
"Of course not!" Luo Liang leaned forward, pointed at the inscription stamp on the letterhead and said loudly, "This, this is an invitation from Guiwang Pavilion!"
"Guiwang Pavilion?" Bai Yutang frowned, slightly puzzled, "Where is it?"
"Fifth Master, it's not surprising that you don't know." The big man next to Luo Liang, who was the deputy head of the Chunfeng Hall who took the lead in cutting down the Baiyu Hall before, said, "This Guiwang Pavilion was only in Bianjing in the last two months. There are mysterious sects haunting nearby, acting surreptitiously, and their whereabouts are unknown, if not for the brothers in our hall who tried their best to find out after receiving this invitation, I am afraid that we would not know that there are such scum in the Jianghu."
"The past two months?" Bai Yutang was stunned, and picked up the tea bowl, "No wonder, I went back to the empty island for the New Year in the past two months, and I was not in Bianjing." After a pause, he asked, "What did Guiwangge do? Is it just an invitation that makes you so nervous?"
As soon as these words came out, Luo Liang and Niu Dashan's faces were full of righteous indignation.
"The heinous crimes committed by Guiwang Pavilion are beyond words!" Luo Liang said angrily, "They, they are brazenly robbing good women and men!"
"Pfft——" Bai Yutang spewed out the tea that he had just swallowed, coughed dryly for a few times before he recovered his breath, his peach blossom eyes widened, and his expression was in disbelief, "What did you just say? Robbing a good housewife... a man?! "
"That's right!!" The two people on the opposite side nodded angrily.
"Hey, that—" Bai Yutang couldn't laugh or cry, "It's usually not about robbing women from good families..."
"Hey!" Niu Dashan frowned and shook his head, "Fifth Bai, it's not the same now as before. In the past, those thieves liked beautiful women, but now this Guiwang Pavilion prefers handsome men! There are already five houses in the three surrounding counties and towns. The handsome son was murdered by him!"
"Furthermore, Guiwangge's actions are quite bold. Every time before committing a crime, they will send out such invitations to the target, and clearly write in black and white when they will come to snatch them! It's really deceiving!" Luo Liang slapped the desktop. , shouted angrily.
"Are they really following the time on this post?" Bai Yutang asked with raised eyebrows, rubbing his chin.
"It's not too late!" Luo Liang said.
"It's really weird..." Bai Yutang muttered, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Why didn't you report to the authorities?"
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Bai Yutang had an expression of biting his tongue before waiting for the reaction of the two people on the other side.
Bah, bah, bah, it turns out that those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black!It's all because of the stinky cat yelling "the government, the government" in his ears every day, which caused Wu Ye to say such words that are not in line with Wu Ye's heroic demeanor.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan didn't know the twists and turns in Bai Yutang's heart, but when they heard Bai Yutang's words, their faces became more depressed.
"Of course I have to report to the official! But I am afraid that reporting to the official is useless—" Luo Liang sighed, "Except for the first family, the other four families who were robbed all reported to the official, but those places Where can the government's wine bags and rice bags catch people? They have returned without success every time. I heard that the town has reported this case to Kaifeng Mansion. I don't know when Master Bao of Kaifeng Mansion will send someone to investigate—in case The people from Kaifeng mansion haven't come yet, so Guiwang Pavilion came first, then, that young hall master... oh!"
"Kaifeng Mansion——" Bai Yutang curled up one corner of his lips, with a look of disdain, "So what if people from Kaifeng Mansion come? I think that Kaifeng Mansion is just a bunch of wine bags and rice bags. If you count on them, it's better..."
"Brother Bai, the merits of the Taoist behind the scenes are not the actions of a gentleman."
Bai Yutang had just finished speaking, when he was interrupted by a clear voice from outside the door. Although the voice was not loud, every word was resonant.
A young servant ran in first, and shouted loudly: "Hall Master, Kaifeng Mansion—"
"Smelly cat! Eavesdropping behind your back is a villain's behavior!" But Bai Yutang didn't let the boy finish the second part of his sentence, as if he was on fire, he jumped up and grinned towards the door.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were already dumbfounded at this moment, staring at Bai Yutang, who had just looked like an outsider, but now he yelled at the people outside the door like a little white mouse whose tail was trampled on.
I saw a person walking in with the wind outside the door, wearing a blue shirt like azure, a moonlight belt, a body like bamboo, a face like a crown of jade, black eyes and cold stars, an ancient sword in his hand, and the bright yellow sword tassels swaying gently with the wind, what a good one Handsome young knight.
The man in the blue shirt naturally ignored the little white mouse that exploded his hair, entered the room and stood still, he cupped his fists at Luo Liang and Niu Dashan, and said in a loud voice: "Zhan Zhao of Kaifeng Mansion was ordered by Mr. Bao to come to help capture the people in Guiwang Pavilion. Bring to justice."
"Kai, Kaifeng mansion?"
"Zhan, Zhan Zhao?!"
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses, and exclaimed in unison with flattered faces: "You, you are Nan Xia Zhan Zhao?!"
"It's Zhan." Zhan Zhao smiled slightly.
For a moment, the two of them seemed to be in a trance for a while as if they saw the dreamy color of rain, sunshine and cloud, and the scene of moonlight and wind.
However, this dreamlike scene didn't last long. In the next moment, a disgruntled white mouse appeared and said angrily, "I'll take care of Mr. Bai Wu, you can go back, stinky cat." !"
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, and said calmly, "Brother Bai, this is a matter for the government, it's better for Brother Bai not to get involved."
"Fifth Master, I want to take care of it!" Bai Yutang raised his peachy eyes.
"Brother Bai, don't make trouble..."
"Smelly cat, you are the one who gets in the way!"
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan looked at each other for a while, and then remembered that the "cat" and "mouse" seemed to be a famous mismatch, and hurriedly rushed forward, one at a time, persuading each other: "Master Zhan, please sit down and rest, drink some tea. .”
"Fifth Master Bai, please be safe and don't be impatient. Now that Mr. Zhan is helping you, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!"
It's good that Bai Yutang didn't listen, but when he heard it, he became furious and shouted angrily: "Fifth Master, I still need a stinky cat to help?! Fifth Master, I can deal with Guiwang Pavilion alone!"
"According to what Brother Bai said, is it sure to capture the group of Guiwang Pavilion?!" Zhan Zhao asked after taking his seat.
"That's natural!" Bai Yutang sat back in his seat, folded his arms and said confidently.
"Zhan would like to hear more about it." Zhan Zhao picked up the tea bowl and scratched the tea lid, "If Brother Bai's countermeasures are really foolproof, Zhan should stand aside and let Brother Bai show his skills."
Bai Yutang sneered: "What's so difficult about this? Since the thief is so bold, he will act according to the time and place on the invitation. Why not set up multiple ambushes inside and outside your young master's house, and wait for the thief to show up?" Wouldn't it be enough to coax him up and capture him?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the room sighed.
Zhan Zhao lowered his eyes, smiled slightly, and slowly shook his head.
"Smelly cat, what are you laughing at?" Bai Yutang looked unhappy.
"Brother Bai's strategy is feasible if it is normal, but it is a pity that it is not appropriate to use it against Guiwang Pavilion." Zhan Zhao raised his eyes and said seriously.
"What do you mean?" Bai Yutang narrowed his eyes.
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang with dark eyes, and said seriously: "Guiwangge committed five crimes in two months, except for the first one who was a farmer's boy, the last four were all sons of famous families in the county and town. The people are quite friendly. After these four families received the post, they all felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. In addition to the reporter, they also invited many guards and martial arts experts to protect their young master. The last family even invited nearly a hundred people. As soon as the thieves from Guiwang Pavilion showed up, they were all helpless, watching helplessly as the young master under heavy protection was robbed."
"The fifth master is not those cats and dogs in the rivers and lakes!" Bai Yutang glanced at Zhan Zhao, sneered, arrogant, "The only person in the rivers and lakes who can get out of the fifth master's sword for thirty rounds, except for a certain stinky cat , I really can’t find a few!”
"What if you can't even pull out the sword?!" Zhan Zhao asked with a frightened expression.
Bai Yutang frowned, and Taohua's eyes flashed sharply: "Could it be that the man from Guiwang Pavilion is so skilled?"
Zhan Zhao shook his head: "It's not because of his skill, but because he can't fight them."
"How do you say it?" Bai Yutang changed his self-confidence just now, and his handsome face showed a serious expression.
"From the testimonies of the five victims, they all said that as soon as the person from Guiwangge showed up, everyone couldn't move at all, not to mention protecting others, even if they couldn't protect them." Zhan Zhao said in a deep voice.
"It's so powerful?!" Bai Yutang's peach blossom eyes widened, slightly surprised, "Could it be some kind of advanced acupuncture?"
Zhan Zhao frowned: "Zhan once asked several martial arts masters who participated in the protection, and they all said that at that time, except for the body being as hard as a rock, there was nothing unusual. The blood vessels in the whole body were smooth, and the internal energy was running as usual. It was definitely not acupuncture."
"Yes, yes!" Niu Dashan on the side looked terrified, moved forward, and said in a low voice, "Those families said that the evil gate of Guiwang Pavilion must have been changed by a demon, so Only in this way can he cast a spell on others and grab handsome men to absorb Yang Qi. Those young masters who were taken away were all in a trance after they came back, and they didn't think about food and drink. They were skinny and skinny after a few days, so they must be returned to the Wang Pavilion The goblin has sucked away the yang energy, so he will die soon."
"Yaomei? Absorb Yang Qi?!" Bai Yutang rolled his eyes, "It's ridiculous!"
"The theory of demons and demons is groundless and unreliable!" Zhan Zhao also said disapprovingly.
"You two don't believe me?!" Niu Dashan's eyes were wide open, his voice trembling, "The people from the Guiwang Pavilion came late at night, they were like ghosts, all of them were dressed in white, and their appearance was as beautiful and picturesque as Chang'e's descending to the earth. ...No, no, it's simply the reincarnation of a vixen..."
"Ahem!" Luo Liang on the side suddenly coughed several times, interrupting Niu Dashan.
Niu Dashan was taken aback for a moment, but he suddenly realized that he broke out in a cold sweat and looked at Bai Yutang tremblingly.
The room was silent.
But seeing the corners of Bai Yutang's eyes twitching wildly, a pair of peach blossom eyes stared fiercely at the two people opposite him, and his white teeth were grinding.
"Bai, Baibai Fifth Master...you, you, you...well, it was our poor eyesight in the tavern just now that mistook, mistook, mistook Bai Wuye for..." Niu Dashan's body was like a sieve, with black hair all over his chest. They all trembled into balls of thread.
"Ah!" Zhan Zhao seemed to think of something, and suddenly said, "When Zhan came, he heard the people on the street discussing that Chunfengtang had a fight with a person in a wine shop, calling evildoers, and saying that the trapped person was dressed in white, As beautiful as a fairy, it sounds a bit like the people in the Guiwang Pavilion dressed—" Speaking of this, Zhan Zhao looked at Luo Liang with a serious expression, "Master Luo, did you find the trace of the thief in the Guiwang Pavilion? "
Poor Luo Liang, the master of the Hall of Spring Breeze, how could he dare to answer half a word, cold sweat broke out from the corner of his forehead, he shrank his neck and hooked his chest, and kept silent like a cicada.
"Zhan! Zhao!" Bai Yutang gritted his silver teeth, jumped up, and pulled out the Huaying sword with a swipe. The sword light shone and shattered, and pointed directly at Zhan Zhao's eyebrows, "Come out and fight Bai Wuye for three hundred rounds! "
Zhan Zhao looked puzzled and innocent: "Brother Bai, why is this? But what offended Zhan?"
Bai Yutang didn't answer, but with a flick of the sword, it pierced Zhan Zhao's chest.
Zhan Zhao turned sideways, avoiding Bai Yutang's sword edge, spun violently, flew away from the seat, and spun down to the center of the hall. He looked up and down Bai Yutang, and suddenly said: "Zhan forgot for a while, Brother Bai also likes it." Wearing white clothes, his appearance... Could it be that the man in white clothes in the tavern just mentioned—”
"Smelly cat, die!" Bai Yutang became furious, and the sword in his hand was like a whirlwind, sweeping Zhan Zhao's body with a murderous aura.
Zhan Zhao's blue shadow was like lightning, and he dodged quickly. Although Bai Yutang's sword was tricky and had a strong killing intent, Zhan Zhao could dodge it every time.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were dumbfounded for the second time. They stared dumbfounded at the two figures, one white and one blue, flying one above the other to fight.
"Smelly cat, today I have you without me! I have you without me!"
"Brother Bai said that when a mouse sees a cat, it should indeed give up three points."
"Zhan Zhao, do you dare to say it again?!"
"Brother Bai has very good ears, he must be able to hear very clearly."
Bai Ying stopped suddenly, raging anger burst out from Tao Hua's eyes.
Shi Shiran of Lan Ying stopped, her expression remained the same, but her eyes did not budge.
The eyes of the two were fighting in the air, and the intensity was not inferior to the brawl just now. Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were sweating through their clothes, and they were afraid that they would suddenly go crazy and tear down the Spring Breeze Hall.
All of a sudden, Bai Yutang narrowed his peach blossom eyes, retracted his sword with a swipe, his murderous look disappeared suddenly, looked at Zhan Zhao with raised eyebrows and smiled, then strolled back to the hall in a big way, and sat down to drink tea.
When Zhan Zhao saw Bai Yutang's actions, he felt a little helpless, he sighed, and went back to the hall to sit down.
"Huh?" Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were even more confused at this moment, full of astonishment.
"Fifth Bai, you and Mr. Zhan, this is..." Luo Liang stepped forward and asked.
But Bai Yutang didn't seem to hear it, he cocked his feet, waving his Xiaoyao fan, and looked at Zhan Zhao with a smug face: "Smelly cat, if you want to find a way to get rid of Bai Wuye's anger and take credit for it, you're not good enough!"
Zhan Zhao smiled bitterly: "Brother Bai..."
"Hey, you stupid cat, you don't even want to say a word on weekdays, but today you have free time to argue with the fifth master, how can you not be suspicious? Cat, cat, if you talk about deceiving people , you are far worse than Xiao Jinzi!" Bai Yutang commented with a senior look on his face.
Zhan Zhao sighed helplessly.
"Fifth Master Bai, Lord Zhan, what kind of charades are you two doing again?" Niu Dashan asked with a puzzled expression.
"The cat of Kaifeng Mansion..." Bai Yutang glanced at Luo Liang and Niu Dashan, and sighed old-fashionedly, "I have a stinky problem! I just want to blame myself!"
"Ah?" Luo and Niu were puzzled.
Peach Blossom eyes shot at Zhan Zhao, with a proud look on his face: "Zhan Zhao, I have never been afraid of anyone since Bai Yutang was in the rivers and lakes. Even if it is a dragon's lake and a tiger's den, I dare to break into it! Are you afraid of someone who is not good enough?" Returning to Wang Pavilion?!"
Zhan Zhao frowned: "This Guiwang Pavilion is acting strangely..."
"so what?"
"Zhan is afraid of Brother Bai..."
"Bai Yutang is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?!"
A sharp light flashed in Taohua's eyes, and she stared straight at Zhan Zhao's face with awe, handsome and arrogant, arrogant in white clothes, domineering and arrogant.
Zhan Zhao's expression moved slightly, his brows widened, his black eyes flickered with brilliance, he fixedly stared at Bai Yutang for a long while, then suddenly he sighed with his hands on his forehead: "Zhan is really afraid of getting into trouble, Brother Bai—"
"Zhan Zhao!" Bai Yutang jumped up, his face flushed with anger, "Don't you understand..."
"The Guiwang Pavilion only picks handsome men. Brother Bai's appearance is astonishing, comparable to Chang'e, better than a demon, Zhanmou is really scary..." Zhan Zhao said with a deep sigh.
The room was dead silent.
Bai Yutang's peach-blossom eyes were wide open, and his mouth was tongue-tied.
Luo Liang nodded, Niu Dashan turned his face away, his shoulders trembled suspiciously.
After a long while, Bai Yutang came back to his senses, his face twitching, "Zhan Zhao!"
Zhan Zhao shook his robe and stood up, cupped his fists towards Bai Yutang, and smiled comfortably: "This time, I will trouble Brother Bai to help me out!"
The black eyes are clear, the jade face is radiant, the light smile is better than the wine, and the flowers are blooming in spring.
Luo Liang and Niu Dashan were in a trance again.
In a blink of an eye, Bai Yutang rubbed his nose uncomfortably, and muttered to himself, "You should be careful..."
-
The moon is melting in the quiet courtyard of pear blossoms, and the breeze is light in the catkin pond;
The spring scenery makes people sleepless, and the clouds move and the shadows of flowers climb on the railing.
In the courtyard behind the Spring Breeze Hall, and around the gazebo, a group of burly men stood in a circle with steel knives in their hands, as if they were facing an enemy, in a tight protection state.
As for the three people in the gazebo, one sat leisurely, one walked around the ground, and the other scratched his head.
"What kind of shabby plan of 'Li Daitao is stiff, hides the mountains and crosses the sea, goes deep into the enemy's territory, directly hits Huanglong, and catches them all in one go', smelly cat, you are putting yourself in danger, and you are going to die for nothing!"
"Yes, Mr. Zhan!" Luo Liang on the side also had a disturbed face, wiping cold sweat, "Let Mr. Zhan take the place of the little one, if, if there is a contingency, Luo will be to blame for his death!"
Sitting upright at the stone table beside him, Zhan Zhao closed his eyes and meditated, slowly opened his eyes, and replied in a flat voice, "Brother Bai, please be safe and don't be impatient, Zhan has a reason for his plan."
"Fuck the truth!" Bai Yutang sat opposite Zhan Zhao holding his sword angrily, his brows were erect and his face was gloomy, "You also said that Guiwangge is acting weirdly, and the sect is tight, what if they really have some weird way to shape people? , you are captured and have no power to protect yourself, don’t you just let me fish you?!”
Zhan Zhao raised his black eyes, glanced at Bai Yutang, and smiled slightly: "Zhan believes that brother Bai is superb in martial arts, and his lightness kung fu is peerless, so he will be able to rescue Zhan from the fire."
Bai Yutang almost choked to death with a mouthful of depressed blood: "If the fifth master is also immobilized and unable to move at all, how can I save you?"
"Brother Bai, don't worry." Zhan Zhao smiled lightly, took out a bamboo tube from his bosom, poured out two black balls, took out one and handed it to Bai Yutang, and swallowed the other himself, saying, "Zhan once After careful questioning of the victim's family members, they all said that when the Guiwangge people appeared, they smelled a strong fragrance, and then they became stiff and unable to move. After the Guiwangge people left, the fragrance disappeared for about a stick After the fragrance, you can act as usual again. Mr. Gongsun speculated that the fragrance should be a kind of ecstasy, so Zhan brought two pills of Jin Xiaowei's Wanshi Daji pills. worry."
"Little Jinzi's pills!" Bai Yutang's eyes lit up, he immediately stuffed it into his mouth, gulped down his stomach, then suddenly recalled it, looked at Zhan Zhao for a while, puffed up his cheeks, "Stinky cat, why don't you say it during the day?" , causing Fifth Master... to worry for a long time."
The words "I've been worried for a long time" are almost in my mouth, blurred.
Zhan Zhao smiled apologetically: "The matter of the misty fragrance is Mr. Gongsun's speculation. Zhan is not very sure yet, so he is really worried about putting Brother Bai in danger..."
"Okay, okay, fifth master knows you, mother-in-law cat." Bai Yutang waved his hands disapprovingly, and continued to ask, "How will we arrange it later?"
"After Zhan is taken away by the people from Guiwang Pavilion, Brother Bai only needs to follow him to find the thief's den in Guiwang Pavilion, and leave a mark for the government servants who are lurking outside the courtyard. Mature, using fireworks as a name, cooperate with Zhan, and we will definitely catch them all!" Zhan Zhao said seriously.
"That's pretty safe." Bai Yutang nodded.
Luo Liang, who was on the side, looked at the two of them, and suddenly asked, "Master Zhan, is there any extra pills for our brothers in the hall to take, so that we can also be a helper to Bai Wuye?" ah!"
Having said that, Bai Yutang suddenly woke up, and hurriedly asked, "Cat, why don't you bring Xiao Jinzi, with Xiao Jinzi in charge, why are you afraid of the scent of God Ma Laoshizi?!"
"This..." Zhan Zhao lowered his eyelashes and coughed dryly, "Lieutenant Jin doesn't know anything about this case."
"Huh?" Bai Yutang wondered.
"Here, the Wang Pavilion is delighted to capture a handsome man. Zhan is afraid that if Captain Jin comes with him, if he is caught..."
"Huh?!" Bai Yutang rolled his eyes contemptuously, "Mao'er, you are worrying too much. With Xiao Jinzi's virtue, he can't even be considered pretty. How could he be favored by Guiwang Pavilion?"
Zhan Zhao sighed lightly, and raised his eyes: "Did Brother Bai forget about Hangzhou?"
As soon as these words came out, Bai Yutang immediately fell silent, Junyan let out a deep voice, and after a moment of silence, he nodded solemnly and said: "That's right, Xiao Jinzi should not get involved with any messy cases recently." Speaking of this, Bai Yutang thought for a while, then frowned and asked, "The cat, you should also ask for a few more pills just in case—"
Zhan Zhao heaved a long sigh: "Zhan was afraid that if he went to ask Captain Jin to ask for the medicine, it would make him suspicious. If he asked, Zhan... Zhan had to ask Mr. Gongsun to ask for it in the name of researching the medicine. Unexpectedly, Captain Jin But he said that the material of this pill was expensive and very rare, and he cried and cried, and he only gave two pills..."
"..."
"..."
The cold wind whizzed by.
"This Captain Jin is a strange person..." Luo Liangnuo said.
"Little Jinzi is too stingy..." Bai Yutang supported his forehead.
Zhan Zhao sighed helplessly, cupped his fists at Bai Yutang, and said solemnly, "This case—I have to rely more on Brother Bai."
Bai Yutang returned to the suave knight-errant mode again, and smiled at Zhanzhao Pippi: "Don't worry, cat, Fifth Master will protect you well even if you go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of fire!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a dead silence in the courtyard.
The swaying spring breeze sweeps across the stiff figures of the spring breeze hall inside and outside the pavilion in the courtyard.
One blue and one white looked at each other from a distance, with cat eyes and mouse eyes, the atmosphere was extremely weird.
Bai Yutang's head was full of black lines, secretly biting his tongue:
Bah, bah, bah, fifth master, why did I say the words that Xiao Jinzi used to flatter me? Oops, it really is that those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black!
Zhan Zhaojun's face twitched, and he said stiffly, "Thank you, Brother Bai."
"Well, it's easy to talk about it." Bai Yutang replied with a stiff face.
Luo Liang glanced at this and that, feeling his scalp numb and his back feeling cold. He took a few steps out of the gazebo and said with a smile, "I'll go and see...that...haha, I won't bother you two..."
After all, he disappeared without a trace.
A cat and a mouse in the gazebo, one looked around uncomfortably, and the other looked down into concentration, really embarrassed, but fortunately, the awkward atmosphere didn't last for a long time, and it didn't take long for it to be the three quarters of the day.
-
The moonlight is cool, and the shadows of the trees overlap.
Outside the wall of the backyard of Chunfengtang, there were gradually trivial footsteps, subtle and shallow, which could only be made by people with light kung fu.
But listening to the footsteps walking slowly outside the backyard wall, there was a soft drink:
"Guiwang Pavilion came to welcome Luo Xi, the young master of Spring Breeze Hall.
