Go to Kaifeng to be a civil servant
Chapter 68
On a simple round wooden table with a mottled lacquer surface, there is a standard breakfast table prepared by Mr. Gongsun, the chief nutritionist of Kaifeng Prefecture.
A pot of white rice porridge can quench thirst, nourish the lungs, invigorate the spleen and stomach, and strengthen the will.
A basket of white steamed buns has the effect of alleviating hunger and filling the stomach.
A plate of green vegetables is rich in chlorophyll, water, minerals, vitamins and other essential nutrients for the human body, which can help the intestinal tract to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, promote digestion and absorption, and facilitate defecation (especially effective for adults who have been suffering from constipation for a long time) , plays an important role in maintaining the beautiful curves and body shape of the body (specific effect? Have you not seen Master Zhan’s waist!), long-term consumption can also detoxify and beautify the skin (see Mr. Gongsun’s whitening Confucian noodles), brain and intelligence ( Seeing Captain Jin is not there, he was a simple child when he first entered the mansion, and now... oh...), in short, this table breakfast is cheap, fresh and delicious, suitable for all kinds of people.
It's a pity that Grand Master Pang, who was seated first, didn't appreciate this nutritious and rewarding breakfast. As soon as he sat down, he frowned, stared at the table with disgust, and refused to move his chopsticks for a long time.
Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun sat on both sides, and warmly invited: "You are welcome, Grand Master, just a simple meal, please use it!"
Taishi Pang's face was fat and stiff, staring at the rice bowl in front of him without saying a word.
Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun felt helpless, and turned to the other half of the round table and said: "You are welcome, please use, please use."
Bai Yutang and Yizhimei had the same expression, first looked at Zhan Zhao and Jinqian, then at Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun, and finally sighed at the same time.
One murmured: "The food in this Kaifeng mansion is too... no wonder that stinky cat and Xiao Jinjin are so thin that only a handful of bones are left..."
The other one breathed a sigh of relief: "Thanks to Brother Jin and Nan Xia reminding me, otherwise, if I really end up in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion...it would be unimaginable, unimaginable..."
Hundred Flowers stared at the food on the table as if looking at a table of poison.
Zhan Zhao's body was straight, he didn't even look at the food on the table, his body was tense, as if he would leave at any moment.
Jin Qian picked up the bowl and picked up the chopsticks, but seeing the faces of the people, he had no choice but to put down the bowls and chopsticks reluctantly.
For a while, the atmosphere on the table was stagnant and there was no sound.
Suddenly, Zhan Zhao suddenly stood up, hugged his sword and said, "My lord, Grand Master, this subordinate still has official duties, please allow this subordinate to retire first."
"Guard Zhan..." Grand Master Pang raised his triangular eyes to glance at Zhan Zhao, and said coldly, "Could it be that Guard Zhan has something dissatisfied with this old man, so he doesn't want to have dinner with him?"
"Zhan Zhao dare not!" Zhan Zhao clasped his fists again, "It's just that Zhan Zhao does have official duties, so..."
"Okay!" Grand Master Pang waved his hand, "No matter how urgent you are, there is no need to miss a meal. The guard Zhan should eat first!"
"Teacher, Zhan Zhao is indeed..."
"Master Bao, how do you teach your subordinates so that you don't know the general idea?!" Grand Master Pang suddenly slapped the table and shouted.
"Teacher calm down." Master Bao hurriedly said, and then turned to Zhan Zhao, "Guard Zhan, don't be in a hurry, let's eat first."
"...Yes." Zhan Zhao had no choice but to sit down, his face gradually pale.
There was a dead silence in the dining hall again. There were eight people at a table, no one moved their chopsticks, no one made a sound, and the air was extremely tense.
Jin Qian was so nervous that he didn't even dare to let out a sound. He looked down at the rice bowl in front of him, only to feel a gust of cold wind that only scratched his brain and pierced his bones. You don't need to raise your eyes or turn your head. Jin Qian also knows that this wind is very familiar. Who wrote the air-conditioning.
Stretching out his hand to touch the shriveled medicine bag, Jin Qian couldn't help feeling a little depressed:
Put the poison of "smoking dead rats" on the five mice of the empty island, heal the wounds of the cats, break through the wine pass set up by Yizhimei, deal with the biohazard zombie army, and because the cat's face was injured before, it ran uncontrollably for a while—— The medicine powders and ammunition that I carry with me are all costly. Now, apart from a few bottles of muscle-creating cream specially left for the cat to heal the wounds in the medicine bag, it seems that there are only a few that were originally intended to entertain the white rats. Croton dumplings...
Forget it, croton dumplings are just croton dumplings. Although they are a bit out of place, they are practical and effective. Now they are used to entertain old crabs, let him clear his stomach, and body shaping strips are also good.
Thinking of this, Jin Qian took a breath, suddenly raised his head, pointed to the dining room door with an exaggerated expression of shock and shouted anxiously: "Who is it?!"
The people at the table couldn't help being startled, and reflexively looked towards the door.
Jin Qian immediately threw several croton balls into the bowl of white rice porridge with lightning speed, pointing, pulling out, and throwing. This series of movements were connected in one go and extremely precise. It's a seamless and magical brushwork, but unfortunately, except for the three literati who don't understand martial arts, Mr. Bao, Mr. Pang Taishi and Mr. Gongsun, the people who sit at the same table with Jin Qian are all well-known figures in the world.
When these four people looked out of the door following Jin Qian's expectation, their complexions all changed, but there were only slight differences, and each had its own merits.
Zhan Zhao's black eyes lit up, Bai Yutang's eyebrows twitched, Yizhimei's face turned pale, and Mr. Baihua's body trembled. Seeing the expression on his face, he got up and ran, but was suffering from being held tightly by Yizhimei, unable to move. His face was so full of green light.
The faces of the four changed, and the other three literati couldn't see it, they just looked outside the door for a long time, but found nothing, and turned their heads to look at Jin Qian with puzzled expressions.
Jin Qian hurriedly laughed and said: "This subordinate is dazzled for a moment, misread, misread."
"Master Bao, how come one or two of your subordinates are so unruly?!" Grand Master Pang said displeased.
Master Bao clasped his fists: "The grand master laughed."
At this moment, Zhan Zhao stood up suddenly, clasped his fists at Grand Master Pang and said, "Zhan Zhao offended Grand Master just now, I hereby apologize."
What? !
The people at the table were shocked at the same time, their numbers stared round, and they all looked at Zhan Zhao, their faces uncertain.
Taishi Pang's fat face was as stiff as a rock, and he was as dumb as a chicken, with his mouth open enough to stuff a watermelon.
I saw Zhan Zhao rolled up his plain sleeves, stirred the porridge bowl with a wooden spoon, filled a bowl full of white rice porridge, brought it to Grand Master Pang, and said, "Zhan Zhao used porridge instead of wine, and apologized to the Grand Master. The grand master will not blame the past."
The rice porridge is steaming hot, with a tangy aroma, and there are a few crystal clear dumplings floating on it, like a pocket Lantern Festival, exquisite and exquisite, it looks really exciting and appetizing.
The three of Bai Yutang left the dining table without a trace at the same time.
Taishi Pang maintained a dumbfounded expression, staring at the porcelain bowl in front of him.
Mr. Gongsun glanced at everyone's expressions out of the corner of his eyes, then glanced at Jin Qian who was shrinking his neck, smiled slightly, and said, "Grand Master, since the guard Zhan is so sincere, Grand Master should drink this bowl of porridge."
Mr. Bao stared at Mr. Zhan Zhao and Mr. Gongsun with sharp eyes, and immediately nodded his head in agreement: "Grand Master, since Guard Zhan intends to admit his mistake, I hope Mr. Grand Master will have a large number, and everything will be forgiven."
Only then did Grand Master Pang come back to his senses, took the porcelain bowl, looked up at Zhan Zhao with lowered head and restrained eyes, then at Mr. Gongsun with a harmless face, and finally at Mr. Bao with a serious face, and bowed his head again Looking at the rice porridge in the bowl, he hesitated for a while before reluctantly scooping up a spoonful and sending it to his mouth.
Everyone could see clearly that there was a steaming pocket dumpling floating in the middle of the spoon.
The spoon moved closer to Taishi Pang's mouth inch by inch, and the eyes of the other seven pairs of eyes also widened inch by inch at the same time, and the heart moved inch by inch towards the throat.
Seeing that the dumpling was about to enter Taishi Pang's mouth, suddenly, there was a commotion outside the dining hall, and a Zaoli rushed in, shouting in his mouth: "Qi, sir, someone from Taishi's residence said that there is something urgent to report to Taishi. !"
"Kang", the porcelain bowl was put back on the table by Grand Master Pang.
The hearts of all the people who had slipped to their throats suddenly shattered, and they couldn't help but glared viciously at the Zaoli at the door.
The Zaoli was stunned by the stare, and he was stupid on the spot.
"What are you still doing in a daze?! You haven't brought the old man in yet!" Grand Master Pang shouted.
Zaoli responded, and hurriedly turned around, but before he could take a step out, he was bumped by a person rushing in and staggered.
"T-Teacher, it's not good, something serious happened in the mansion..."
The one who ran in was a man dressed as a servant, only thirty years old, bent and kneeling, his back was wet, and the clothes on his back were soaked in sweat.
"Why are you so panicked?! I'm not afraid of losing the face of the Grand Master's House!" Grand Master Pang said displeased.
"Yes, yes, the villain is rude, rude..." The servant kowtowed.
Grand Master Pang squinted his triangular eyes: "Tell me, what happened in the mansion?"
"Qi, Qi report to Grand Master, the rockery in the back garden of the mansion exploded..."
……
A silence.
Everyone thought they heard it wrong, so no one said anything, but looked calmly at the servant kneeling on the ground.
After a while, Grand Master Pang said slowly, "What did you just say?"
"Go back to Grand Master, the rockery in the mansion exploded."
There was silence again.
Suddenly, Taishi Pang slammed the table and shouted sharply: "It's nonsense, how can the rockery in the back garden be blown up?"
"It just exploded with a bang..." the servant cried.
All eyes shot at Grand Master Pang.
Grand Master Pang's fat face was trembling wildly, and he suddenly shot his eyes at Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and the others with an expression of disbelief.
"Should the grand master go back to the mansion to take a look..." Mr. Gongsun suggested.
Grand Master Pang stared with triangular eyes, turned around on Zhan Zhao and the others opposite, and gritted his teeth: "It's okay, it's just a rockery, I will build another one someday."
"Grand master..." the servant said again.
"What else is there?" Grand Master Pang shouted angrily.
"Those goldfish in the pond in the back garden turned, turned white... died..."
"What?!" Grand Master Pang raised his voice an octave higher, "You said that all the 50 taels of golden carp died?"
"Yes……"
Grand Master Pang's face turned blue.
"It's better for the Grand Master to go back to the residence..." Mr. Bao also suggested sincerely.
"No problem." Grand Master Pang stomped his feet, "It's just a few fish, I'll buy two more in a few days."
"T-Teacher, also, and..."
"what else?!"
"The roof of the book and study room flew off..."
"How can the roof of the study fly?!"
"It's just 'boom boom boom boom swish swish' and flew away..." The servant danced and gestured.
Grand Master Pang's face turned green.
"Teacher, how about..." This time even Zhan Zhao couldn't listen anymore.
"No, it doesn't matter, the big deal is that I will build another study." Grand Master Pang still stared at Zhan Zhao, gnashing his teeth.
"T-Teacher..."
"what happened again?!"
"A big pit collapsed on the floor of the grand master's bedroom, and the bed fell into the pit..."
"What?!" Grand Master Pang's face turned pale immediately, his plump figure flickered, and he rolled backwards.
Fortunately, Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and they supported him one by one, so that Taishi Pang was saved from the fate of hitting the back of his head on the ground.
"The grand master should go back to the mansion quickly." Mr. Gongsun said earnestly.
"It's the best policy for Grand Master to return home as soon as possible to deal with the aftermath." Mr. Bao put forward his professional advice.
Taishi Pang gasped for a long while, and then he was relieved, his triangular eyes turned around in a daze, and then he fixedly looked at Master Bao and said in a trembling voice: "Old, something happened in the old man's house, I still, I hope that Master Bao will be with you." The guards will escort the old man back home..."
"Kaifeng Mansion will do its best." Mr. Bao agreed.
Jin Qian looked at it with emotion and reverence:
Tsk tsk, this old crab's persistent spirit is really admirable, the crab's nest is about to be turned upside down, and he is still thinking about fixing the cat.
However, this rockery, pond, roof, pit...
Jin Qian turned his eyes to Bai Yutang who had a suave smile on his face and began to whimper and shake his fan, Zhan Zhao who was first surprised and then calm, Yizhimei who was full of fun, and the somewhat inexplicable Mr. Baihua , as well as the confident Mr. Bao, and Mr. Gongsun, who exudes dazzling and harmless light all over his body, suddenly had a deep understanding of the abnormal behavior of Lao Bao and Gongsun Zhuzi today: Is the mutation of the crab nest? Premeditated?
If that's the case, it's no wonder that these two are as stable as Mount Tai and quiet as virgins, but listen to this meaning... the rockery is roughly equal to the mountain, the pond is roughly equal to the water, the roof is roughly equal to the sky, and the pit is roughly equal to the ground...
Mountains, water, sky, and earth, what a majestic and majestic lineup. Could it be that Lao Bao and Gongsun Zhuzi are looking for a certain four who are especially able to endure hardships, fight, tackle key problems, and The rambunctious mouse should be a foreign aid...
-
To the west of Kaifeng Mansion and to the southeast of the inner city is the Grand Master's mansion, which is luxurious, luxurious and magnificent, exactly: pavilions towering into the clouds, delicate jade trees and flowers like brocades, majestic gates and tight guards.
On normal days, it would be difficult for the common people to get within a hundred meters.But today, when Mr. Bao came to the mansion together with Taishi Pang and the people from Kaifeng Mansion, he saw that outside the mansion, there was a huge crowd of people rubbing their shoulders, many people filled the streets and alleys in front of the mansion. Looking at the past, it is full of black heads, which is really spectacular.
"Hey, did you hear this morning? There was a bang in the Grand Master's Mansion, like a thunder from the sky. It was so loud that it almost deafened your ears."
"I heard it, I heard it, this early in the morning, I almost scared people to death, and I don't know what happened in the Grand Master's Mansion?"
"I heard that the rockery in the Grand Master's Mansion exploded."
"What? The rockery was blown up?! What nonsense are you talking about! The rockery is not a firecracker, so how can it just blow up?"
"Hey, you don't know that, my brother-in-law's neighbor, aunt, son-in-law, third cousin's son, brother-in-law, is a servant in the Grand Master's mansion. He said this himself, and he can't be wrong, and ah..."
"Oh! Don't hold back your appetite, just say it!"
"I heard from him that the roof of the Taishi's study room flew off!"
"Hey, I saw this too. It was just dawn in the early morning. When I came out to empty the toilet, I saw a roof flying away from the Grand Master's Mansion. It flew so fast!"
"Let's not talk about you, who hasn't seen it around here?! How about we all gather here to watch the fun?"
"There are even more strange things. I heard that the fish in the pond in the Grand Master's residence turned white, and a big hole collapsed on the floor of the Grand Master's bedroom, and even the Grand Master's bed fell into the hole!"
"Eh?! There is such a thing? This is too mysterious!"
"Hey, I think it's probably because the grand master has done too many bad things, and he's getting retribution."
"Rational, reasonable!"
All the common people gathered around the Grand Master's mansion, all of them were full of curiosity, their eyes were bright, and they muttered, making gestures while talking, and they were serious, intermittently reaching the ears of Master Bao and Grand Master Pang who hurried over. .
The grand master's official sedan chair reached the gate of the mansion, but before it came to a complete stop, Grand Master Pang stuck his head out, his mouth and face turned green, and he yelled angrily at the guard guard at the door: "Why are you still standing there?! Get rid of these troublemakers?!"
Several servants guarding the gate hurriedly took orders, and put on a fierce look to drive away the gathered people.
But those people were like surging waves, rushing back, rushing up again, taking two steps back, and then taking three steps forward, incessantly, eloquently, quite Xiaoqiang spirit.
In the end, it was Mr. Bao who showed his loyalty and asked the four captains to lead a group of yamen servants in Kaifeng Mansion to persuade them a few words. The people gradually dispersed because of Mr. Bao's face. But if you look around carefully, it is not difficult to see In the corners and alleys, there are many guys who are probing their brains watching.
In short, after the chaos, everyone finally saw the real situation inside the Grand Master's mansion according to the rumors.
In fact, judging from Grand Master Pang's hasty footsteps, nervous expression and the direction he was heading, Grand Master Pang should have planned to go straight to the bedroom, but during the established route to the bedroom, everyone was fortunate to witness the grand occasion in the back garden and study of the Grand Master's mansion.
The first stop: the back garden, where the original rockery is located.
Grand Master Pang stood alone in front of the fairly empty field, his fists clenched tightly, his triangular eyes set on fire, and his robe sleeves were lifted by the gusts of wind and dust.
"This..." Mr. Bao, a majestic LongTuge University scholar and a first-rank official, opened his mouth for a while, but couldn't think of an adjective.
"Cough cough..." Mr. Gongsun, the dignified Chief Registrar of Kaifeng Mansion, first master, literary talent and meticulous thought, only coughed twice to express his surprise.
"..." Mr. Zhan Zhaozhan, the fourth-rank imperial guard with swords and the number one expert in Kaifeng Mansion, who is unrivaled in martial arts and lightness kung fu, has always been not good at words, which is understandable.
As for Bai Yutang, there was only one expression on his face - I smiled smugly, I smiled smugly.
Brother Yizhimei, the four major lieutenants, and all the yamen servants in Kaifeng Mansion were silently surprised.
"The wind is rustling... the rockery is scattered..." Jinqian, the No. 1 mouth in Kaifeng Mansion, lived up to expectations and made an authoritative comment.
The second stop: still the back garden, the side of the pond.
Watching a group of family members shouting and drinking to salvage dozens of golden carps floating on the surface of the pond with their belly upside down, and seeing Grand Master Pang glaring and gnashing his teeth, everyone chose to remain silent.
Third stop: In the study.
Standing in the middle of the study, everyone looked up together, only to see a wide field of vision above the study, with a sweeping view of the overhead scenery, the blue sky is thousands of miles away, the clouds are clear and the wind is light, it is like a rippling morning scene.
Except for Taishi Pang who was furious, the rest of the people were immersed in this beautiful scenery.
"...The weather is good..." Mr. Bao stood quietly for a while, and made a conclusion.
Everyone nodded at the same time.
End point: bedroom.
A large round hole with a diameter of at least [-] meters suddenly appeared in the middle of the majestic grand master's bedroom. In the pit, there was the grand master's carved sandalwood tent bed, but two legs were broken. A few carved flowers were cracked, and a little dust was stained on the hibiscus curtain.
Taishi Pang's face turned from white to blue, from green to purple, from purple to black, and finally turned into a dark face comparable to that of Mr. Bao. He glared at Mr. Bao fiercely and shouted: "Mr. Bao, the public security in Bianliang City in Tokyo belongs to Kaifeng. Under the jurisdiction of the mansion, the old man's mansion has become, and has become like this, the entire Kaifeng mansion cannot absolve itself of the blame, this old man must play a book in front of the Holy Master, and punish you for the crime of unfavorable supervision!"
As soon as this remark came out, the faces of the people in Kaifeng Mansion, who were still watching the show, suddenly changed.
Jin Qian couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words, and said in his heart:
This old crab's words really hit the nail on the head, this Kaifeng mansion manages the safety and security of Bianliang, Tokyo, and now that the Grand Master's mansion has been tossed into such a state, Kaifeng mansion must be inseparable.Tsk tsk, old Bao, even if you want to find four mice or other messy guys to make trouble, you should always leave yourself a way out.
Thinking of this, Jin Qian hurriedly looked towards Master Bao.
Master Bao lowered his head and lowered his eyes, clasped his fists and said respectfully: "What the Grand Master said is true, Bao Zheng is not in supervision, he is indeed guilty, Bao Zheng will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, and give the Grand Master an explanation!"
Speaking of this, Mr. Bao suddenly turned his head, stared straight at Jin Qian with his sharp eyes, and said seriously: "Lieutenant Jin, I will leave this matter to you."
"Eh?!" Jin Qian suddenly turned pale with shock.
Leave it to us? !Is there a mistake? !Could it be that Lao Bao's plan of retreat is to pull us as a backstop? !
Not to mention Jin Qian, the rest of the people were also very surprised, Grand Master Pang was furious and shouted loudly: "Bao Heizi, what do you mean, are you planning to use a sixth-rank school captain to fool this old man?!"
Master Bao's face darkened when he heard this, and he said in a heavy voice: "The grand master's words are wrong! Since the grand master knows that Jin Xiaowei is a sixth-rank captain who was appointed by the emperor Jinkou, he naturally knows that Jin Xiaowei is a junior lieutenant. Where did the sixth-rank official rank come from? Captain Jin is a strange person in the world, who can understand ghosts and gods. Ask Sen Luo, it is the best policy to hand over the affairs of the Grand Master's mansion to Captain Jin. How can you be fooled? "
"You, you mean..." Grand Master Pang's face twitched violently, "The old man's house has become like this, it is, it is..."
"I'm afraid it's caused by filth!" Master Bao made a final decision.
"Bao Heizi!" Grand Master Pang's triangular eyes suddenly burst, and bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes, "Don't bully me too much!"
"Bao Zheng based his inferences on the inexplicable explosion of the rockery in the Grand Master's Mansion, the death of the golden carp in the pond for no reason, the tile roof of the study flying away out of thin air, and the strange collapse of the bedroom floor. Bao Zheng really couldn't think of any other reason if it wasn't caused by filth."
"Hmph, maybe it's the work of some stranger!" Taishi Pang turned to Zhan Zhao and the others with triangular eyes, and said with a distorted expression.
"Is there any evidence for the grand master's inference?" Master Bao asked.
"Bao Heizi!!" Grand Master Pang's fat face turned into the color of a pig's liver.
"Since there is no evidence or evidence, why did the Grand Master make such an assertion?"
"you!!"
"Lieutenant Jin Xiao will take care of the matters in the Grand Master's residence. Please don't worry about the Grand Master. It's getting late, and Bao Zheng can't bother you, so I'll take my leave."
After finishing speaking, Master Bao bowed his head to salute, and led the Kaifeng Mansion to leave.
Grand Master Tuliu Pang stood alone in the messy bedroom and beat his chest:
"Bao Heizi!! This Grand Master and you are at odds with each other, and we swear to be incompatible!!"
Until a hundred meters away from the grand master's mansion, he could still hear grand master Pang's howling.
"No wonder a certain stinky cat is so cunning, and Xiao Jinzi is so difficult to deal with. He learned his feelings from his master..." At the same time, he also heard the words from the heart of a certain white mouse.
-
Returning to Kaifeng Mansion again, everyone's state of mind is very different from before, and they all feel elated and relaxed.
Needless to say, no need to ask, just looking at the messy and generous production of the Grand Master's Mansion, everyone guessed in their hearts about who did it, so when they saw the four people who had been waiting in the flower hall for a long time, they were not too surprised .
In the flower hall, the four people were separated from each other.
The first person is dressed in brocade clothes with golden swords, majestic tiger eyes, and the person on the left; the person on the left has a short skirt, a long belt, and a mustache, and holds a goose feather fan; the person in the middle is full of muscles, bearded, and a purple gold hammer on his waist; the person on the right is short in stature. , head tied in a bun, waist with silver claws, are the four masters of the empty island.
When Bai Yutang saw the person coming, he was a little embarrassed, and his peach blossom eyes wandered around for a long time, but finally he couldn't resist the burning eyes of the four mice, so he could only put on a smiling face and said: "Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, all of you coming……"
Zhantianshu Lu Fang sighed, Chudishu Han Zhang shook his head, Chuanshanshu Xu Qing stared, Fanjiangshu Jiang smiled flatly.
Bai Yutang hastily rushed over, and stood obediently beside Sishu, silent.
Mr. Gongsun or Mr. Gongsun appeared in the circle, stepped forward and said: "Can the four get something?"
Lu Fang immediately took a step forward, held up a long wooden box respectfully, and said: "The four mice on the Sky Island have lived up to their expectations, and they have indeed achieved something."
Mr. Gongsun and Zhan Zhao hurried forward to take the wooden box, opened it and inspected it carefully, the contents in the box were dazzling and shining gold, it was the authentic Shangfang sword that had not been seen for a long time.
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.
Master Bao smiled: "The four righteous men have worked hard."
The four mice immediately pulled Bai Yutang and knelt down on one knee at the same time, and they heard Lu Fang, the Zhutian mouse, say: "The matter of Shang Fang's sword was caused by the five mice on the empty island. ?”
"Big brother!" Bai Yutang was startled when he heard the words, and said anxiously, "The matter of Shangfang's sword was done by the fifth brother alone, and has nothing to do with the four brothers. Bai Yutang is solely responsible for all the crimes!"
"Fifth brother!" Lu Fang's face darkened, "Fifth brother, do you still remember the oath you made when you sworn to the four of us?!"
"...Fifth Brother naturally remembers." Bai Yutang lowered his eyes.
"Then you tell Big Brother to listen!"
"...Yes..." Bai Yutang frowned slightly, but kept his eyes shut.
Chu Dishu Han Zhang laughed and said: "Fifth brother doesn't remember, but second brother I remember clearly. I think when the five of us sworn oaths, we made a solemn oath: We will share weal and woe, never give up in adversity..."
"To live and die together, to return to the same age..." Xu Qing, the mountain rat, said seriously.
"If you break this oath, heaven and earth will be abandoned!" Fan Jiangshu Jiang Ping said slowly, waving his goose feather fan, "Fifth brother, although fourth brother is very unwilling to take care of your mess, but under the solemn oath, life and death are at stake, so I have to do it for you." ah!"
The other three mice also shook their heads seriously and let out a long sigh.
"Fourth brother..." Bai Yutang suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
Mr. Bao looked around at the Five Rats for a week, with a happy expression on his face: "I have always heard that the Five Rats are loyal to Bo Yuntian in the empty island. I saw you today, and it really deserves its reputation! The matter of Shangfang's sword, this government has decided not to pursue it. Five righteous men, please stand up." Speak."
The five rats got up one by one and stood aside respectfully.
Bai Yutang looked at the four mice, finally unable to suppress his curiosity, and asked, "Why did the four elder brothers come to Kaifeng, and why did they help Mr. Bao find Shangfang's sword?"
Chedishu Han Zhang put his hands on his chest and said, "It's not because of you, fifth brother! When you left Xingkong Island, the fourth brother dragged us to Bianliang City, saying that he was here to meet the fifth brother. In the end, the fifth brother We didn't wait, but we heard the news that Grand Master Pang would participate in the performance of Master Bao, so the four of us rushed to Kaifeng Mansion to meet Master Bao."
Xu Qing, the mountain mouse, also said in a loud voice: "When we combined Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun, we realized that Shangfang's sword was probably in the Grand Master's Mansion, so Master Bao sent the four of us to find it in the Grand Master's Mansion. sword."
Zhan Tianshu Lu Fang clasped his fists and said: "Master Bao will not blame the past, not only does he not blame the Five Rats, but also entrusts us with a chance to pay off the crime. The Five Rats of Trapped Sky Island are grateful. Believe it or not!"
Do your best? !
Jin Qian couldn't help but twitch, secretly said:
Sure enough, they tried their best, the goods are genuine, and they are innocent. It's a pity that the old crab is so good that a crab's nest is almost like a briquette... How dare to do such a secret thing such as searching for Shang Fang's sword so blatantly and blatantly? It's too ignorant.
"However, it is thanks to Mr. Gongsun's ingenious plan that Shangfang's sword can be retrieved smoothly!" Fan Jiangshu Jiang Ping said suddenly.
Ok?
Brilliant plan?What's the trick?
Isn't it just to steal a sword and make a mess, basically there is no technical content, so how can there be a clever plan?
Jin Qian couldn't help turning his gaze to the silent Gongsun Zhuzi, but found that Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, Yizhimei and Baihua all had the same expression as him: Zhang Er was puzzled.
Mr. Gongsun smiled slightly: "Fourth Master Jiang is absurd."
Jiang Ping also smiled slightly: "The Grand Master's Mansion is well-guarded and the terrain of the mansion is complicated. If Mr. Gongsun hadn't used a series of tricks to divert the tiger away from the mountain and scare the snake away, I'm afraid the four of us are still groping around in the Grand Master's Mansion without a clue."
Tune the tiger away from the mountain?Scared the snake?
Jin Qian and the others were even more confused.
"Fourth brother, don't you always say half a sentence, leave half a sentence, you'll be so anxious to hear it!" Bai Yutang couldn't hold back, and yelled.
Jiang Ping glanced at Bai Yutang, and then slowly said: "Fifth brother knows that he is in a hurry now? Thinking that the fifth brother stole Shang Fang's sword and made a big mistake, why not hurry?!"
"Fourth brother..." Bai Yutang's peachy eyes fluttered, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Jiang Siye, Mr. Gongsun." Zhan Zhao took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "Zhan Zhao also has some puzzles, I hope you two can clarify."
Immediately, Jiang Ping's complexion changed, and he hurriedly replied: "Nan Xia doesn't need to be polite, Jiang Ping is ashamed." Speaking of this, he paused, and then said, "After Grand Master Pang played the book three days ago, I was planning to leave immediately. Going to the Grand Master's Mansion to get back Shangfang's sword, I only listened to Mr. Gongsun's words, so I put it off until the early morning of this morning."
"Why is that?" Bai Yutang asked.
"This is Mr. Gongsun's brilliance." Jiang Pingdao, "Shangfang's sword was stolen by the fifth brother. It was a confidential matter, but it was stolen by other people, and finally it was in the hands of Grand Master Pang. I don't know the twists and turns of the conspiracy. , whom we will fight against, we don't know, if we act rashly, we accidentally make a mistake, and Nan Xia and Fifth Brother have no news, so we can't help, I'm afraid it will be very bad."
"So, the four of us spent two whole nights staying at the grand master's mansion, so as to find out the reality of that grand master." Han Zhang said.
"It turns out that there are more guards in the Grand Master's Mansion, but there is nothing unusual." Xu Qing was a little annoyed.
"However, Grand Master Pang is also a treacherous and cunning man. All the guards in the mansion are of general standards. He himself does not leave the gate, and does not enter the second gate. He sits in the mansion, making it impossible for people to guess where the sword is hidden. I thought God didn't know. Unknowingly stealing away Shang Fang's sword, but there is no way to do it." Lu Fang also said.
"Fortunately, the Zhan guards came back in time, otherwise it would be really difficult." Mr. Gongsun looked at Zhan Zhao and smiled.
"What do you mean by Mr. Gongsun's words?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled.
"When you are in a hurry, your heart must be unstable, and your thinking must be lacking. The Grand Master's Mansion has many eyes and ears. Someone must have notified the Grand Master's Mansion about the return of the guards to the city. Grand Master Pang saw that the time limit was up and the great work was about to be accomplished. I heard it at such a critical juncture. Guard Zhan went back to the city, naturally he was suspicious and restless, that's why he came to Kaifeng Mansion, trying to hold Guard Zhan back and prevent him from changing." Speaking of this, Mr. Gongsun looked at the four mice again, and said with a smile, " It's a pity that Taishi Pang is ignorant and ignorant, he only knows that there is a 'Royal Cat' in Kaifeng Mansion, but he doesn't know that there are 'Five Rats' in Jianghu."
When Jin Qian heard this, he finally understood, this is the "trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain".Tsk, Emotional self, Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, Yizhimei, and Baihua boy are all fish and bugs who catch old crabs out of their holes—to be precise, Zhan Zhao is the real fish and bugs, and the rest is at best to serve as side dishes for Zhan Zhao earthworms.
Mr. Jiang Pingchao Gongsun nodded slightly, and continued: "There is no one in the Grand Master's Mansion. If there is a change, there will be chaos. The guards will naturally gather at the most important guarding place. Exploding rockery, poisonous golden carps, and flying roofs are just disturbances." People's eyes, charming mind, throwing stones to ask for directions."
Han Zhang smiled: "In the end, those guards and guards all ran towards Grand Master Pang's bedroom... Hehe, so I dug a hole under the grand master's bedroom. What a coincidence, I found it under the old grand master's bed. I got Shang Fang’s sword.”
Everyone was stunned, Jin Qian was speechless.
So, this is a conspiracy to scare the snake?
This "grass" was beaten too hard.
"But the act of blowing up the rockery, poisoning the golden carp, and flying the roof..." Mr. Gongsun gently stroked his beard, implying something.
Look, look, even Gongsun Zhuzi thinks this move is outrageous.
"Mr. Gongsun, this is all the idea of the fourth brother, don't do anything about the three of us!" Xu Qing, the mountain rat, saw Mr. Gongsun's expression, and his intuition was to quickly separate the relationship.
The other three mice also looked at Jiang Ping at the same time.
Jiang Ping, on the other hand, waved his goose feather fan leisurely and unhurriedly: "Mr. Gongsun, do you still remember Mr. Gongsun's explanation when the four of us were leaving?"
"Strange behavior can be called the work of ghosts." Mr. Gongsun said solemnly.
"Weird things can be big or small." Jiang Ping said with a leisurely smile, "However, restraining hands and feet and making small troubles have never been the style of the Five Rats of Trapped Island."
Mr. Gongsun raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The Five Rats of Trapped Sky Island really deserve their reputation."
"Mr. Gongsun, thank you." Jiang Ping laughed back.
Slightly curling the oily mustache, gently shaking the goose feather fan, Jiang Ping, the fan of Jiang Ping, smiled happily; twisting the three-foot black beard with his hands, the phoenix eyes shone with light, and Mr. Gongsun opened his eyes and brows with joy; the two pictures are very similar Standing opposite each other with smiles, there is a sense of sympathy, and the meaning of heroes who hate to meet each other.
"Second brother, do you think that fourth brother looks a bit like Mr. Gongsun when he smiles?" Bai Yutang said tremblingly.
Chu Shu Han Zhang nodded in a daze.
Everyone around trembled at the same time.
There was a chill behind Jin Qian's back, and a look of absoluteness suddenly appeared in his mind:
The first couplet: Water Rat Feather Fan, talking and laughing, Pang's mansion was wiped out;
The second couplet: The green bamboos are facing the wind, the Confucianism is light, and there are so many heroes at the moment.
Horizontal batch: Fu with a black belly.
Tsk tsk, Bianliang City is far away...
-
The theft of Shang Fang's sword finally came to an end after half a month after the emperor turned a blind eye, Mrs. Bao deliberately took sides, and Grand Master Pang complained of illness in a rage.
All the people involved in the case were acquitted and released, and each has his own destination.
Brother Yizhimei bid farewell to Mr. Bao, they naturally went back to their respective dens and stole from each other.
After considering the practical value of Iljimae, Jin Qian asked where Iljimae lived.
"Linfeng Building." Yizhimei replied straightforwardly.
"Hey? Didn't Brother Mei make a promise that as long as someone successfully breaks through the barrier, he will leave Linfeng Tower immediately?"
"But I didn't say I couldn't go back."
A pot of white rice porridge can quench thirst, nourish the lungs, invigorate the spleen and stomach, and strengthen the will.
A basket of white steamed buns has the effect of alleviating hunger and filling the stomach.
A plate of green vegetables is rich in chlorophyll, water, minerals, vitamins and other essential nutrients for the human body, which can help the intestinal tract to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, promote digestion and absorption, and facilitate defecation (especially effective for adults who have been suffering from constipation for a long time) , plays an important role in maintaining the beautiful curves and body shape of the body (specific effect? Have you not seen Master Zhan’s waist!), long-term consumption can also detoxify and beautify the skin (see Mr. Gongsun’s whitening Confucian noodles), brain and intelligence ( Seeing Captain Jin is not there, he was a simple child when he first entered the mansion, and now... oh...), in short, this table breakfast is cheap, fresh and delicious, suitable for all kinds of people.
It's a pity that Grand Master Pang, who was seated first, didn't appreciate this nutritious and rewarding breakfast. As soon as he sat down, he frowned, stared at the table with disgust, and refused to move his chopsticks for a long time.
Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun sat on both sides, and warmly invited: "You are welcome, Grand Master, just a simple meal, please use it!"
Taishi Pang's face was fat and stiff, staring at the rice bowl in front of him without saying a word.
Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun felt helpless, and turned to the other half of the round table and said: "You are welcome, please use, please use."
Bai Yutang and Yizhimei had the same expression, first looked at Zhan Zhao and Jinqian, then at Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun, and finally sighed at the same time.
One murmured: "The food in this Kaifeng mansion is too... no wonder that stinky cat and Xiao Jinjin are so thin that only a handful of bones are left..."
The other one breathed a sigh of relief: "Thanks to Brother Jin and Nan Xia reminding me, otherwise, if I really end up in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion...it would be unimaginable, unimaginable..."
Hundred Flowers stared at the food on the table as if looking at a table of poison.
Zhan Zhao's body was straight, he didn't even look at the food on the table, his body was tense, as if he would leave at any moment.
Jin Qian picked up the bowl and picked up the chopsticks, but seeing the faces of the people, he had no choice but to put down the bowls and chopsticks reluctantly.
For a while, the atmosphere on the table was stagnant and there was no sound.
Suddenly, Zhan Zhao suddenly stood up, hugged his sword and said, "My lord, Grand Master, this subordinate still has official duties, please allow this subordinate to retire first."
"Guard Zhan..." Grand Master Pang raised his triangular eyes to glance at Zhan Zhao, and said coldly, "Could it be that Guard Zhan has something dissatisfied with this old man, so he doesn't want to have dinner with him?"
"Zhan Zhao dare not!" Zhan Zhao clasped his fists again, "It's just that Zhan Zhao does have official duties, so..."
"Okay!" Grand Master Pang waved his hand, "No matter how urgent you are, there is no need to miss a meal. The guard Zhan should eat first!"
"Teacher, Zhan Zhao is indeed..."
"Master Bao, how do you teach your subordinates so that you don't know the general idea?!" Grand Master Pang suddenly slapped the table and shouted.
"Teacher calm down." Master Bao hurriedly said, and then turned to Zhan Zhao, "Guard Zhan, don't be in a hurry, let's eat first."
"...Yes." Zhan Zhao had no choice but to sit down, his face gradually pale.
There was a dead silence in the dining hall again. There were eight people at a table, no one moved their chopsticks, no one made a sound, and the air was extremely tense.
Jin Qian was so nervous that he didn't even dare to let out a sound. He looked down at the rice bowl in front of him, only to feel a gust of cold wind that only scratched his brain and pierced his bones. You don't need to raise your eyes or turn your head. Jin Qian also knows that this wind is very familiar. Who wrote the air-conditioning.
Stretching out his hand to touch the shriveled medicine bag, Jin Qian couldn't help feeling a little depressed:
Put the poison of "smoking dead rats" on the five mice of the empty island, heal the wounds of the cats, break through the wine pass set up by Yizhimei, deal with the biohazard zombie army, and because the cat's face was injured before, it ran uncontrollably for a while—— The medicine powders and ammunition that I carry with me are all costly. Now, apart from a few bottles of muscle-creating cream specially left for the cat to heal the wounds in the medicine bag, it seems that there are only a few that were originally intended to entertain the white rats. Croton dumplings...
Forget it, croton dumplings are just croton dumplings. Although they are a bit out of place, they are practical and effective. Now they are used to entertain old crabs, let him clear his stomach, and body shaping strips are also good.
Thinking of this, Jin Qian took a breath, suddenly raised his head, pointed to the dining room door with an exaggerated expression of shock and shouted anxiously: "Who is it?!"
The people at the table couldn't help being startled, and reflexively looked towards the door.
Jin Qian immediately threw several croton balls into the bowl of white rice porridge with lightning speed, pointing, pulling out, and throwing. This series of movements were connected in one go and extremely precise. It's a seamless and magical brushwork, but unfortunately, except for the three literati who don't understand martial arts, Mr. Bao, Mr. Pang Taishi and Mr. Gongsun, the people who sit at the same table with Jin Qian are all well-known figures in the world.
When these four people looked out of the door following Jin Qian's expectation, their complexions all changed, but there were only slight differences, and each had its own merits.
Zhan Zhao's black eyes lit up, Bai Yutang's eyebrows twitched, Yizhimei's face turned pale, and Mr. Baihua's body trembled. Seeing the expression on his face, he got up and ran, but was suffering from being held tightly by Yizhimei, unable to move. His face was so full of green light.
The faces of the four changed, and the other three literati couldn't see it, they just looked outside the door for a long time, but found nothing, and turned their heads to look at Jin Qian with puzzled expressions.
Jin Qian hurriedly laughed and said: "This subordinate is dazzled for a moment, misread, misread."
"Master Bao, how come one or two of your subordinates are so unruly?!" Grand Master Pang said displeased.
Master Bao clasped his fists: "The grand master laughed."
At this moment, Zhan Zhao stood up suddenly, clasped his fists at Grand Master Pang and said, "Zhan Zhao offended Grand Master just now, I hereby apologize."
What? !
The people at the table were shocked at the same time, their numbers stared round, and they all looked at Zhan Zhao, their faces uncertain.
Taishi Pang's fat face was as stiff as a rock, and he was as dumb as a chicken, with his mouth open enough to stuff a watermelon.
I saw Zhan Zhao rolled up his plain sleeves, stirred the porridge bowl with a wooden spoon, filled a bowl full of white rice porridge, brought it to Grand Master Pang, and said, "Zhan Zhao used porridge instead of wine, and apologized to the Grand Master. The grand master will not blame the past."
The rice porridge is steaming hot, with a tangy aroma, and there are a few crystal clear dumplings floating on it, like a pocket Lantern Festival, exquisite and exquisite, it looks really exciting and appetizing.
The three of Bai Yutang left the dining table without a trace at the same time.
Taishi Pang maintained a dumbfounded expression, staring at the porcelain bowl in front of him.
Mr. Gongsun glanced at everyone's expressions out of the corner of his eyes, then glanced at Jin Qian who was shrinking his neck, smiled slightly, and said, "Grand Master, since the guard Zhan is so sincere, Grand Master should drink this bowl of porridge."
Mr. Bao stared at Mr. Zhan Zhao and Mr. Gongsun with sharp eyes, and immediately nodded his head in agreement: "Grand Master, since Guard Zhan intends to admit his mistake, I hope Mr. Grand Master will have a large number, and everything will be forgiven."
Only then did Grand Master Pang come back to his senses, took the porcelain bowl, looked up at Zhan Zhao with lowered head and restrained eyes, then at Mr. Gongsun with a harmless face, and finally at Mr. Bao with a serious face, and bowed his head again Looking at the rice porridge in the bowl, he hesitated for a while before reluctantly scooping up a spoonful and sending it to his mouth.
Everyone could see clearly that there was a steaming pocket dumpling floating in the middle of the spoon.
The spoon moved closer to Taishi Pang's mouth inch by inch, and the eyes of the other seven pairs of eyes also widened inch by inch at the same time, and the heart moved inch by inch towards the throat.
Seeing that the dumpling was about to enter Taishi Pang's mouth, suddenly, there was a commotion outside the dining hall, and a Zaoli rushed in, shouting in his mouth: "Qi, sir, someone from Taishi's residence said that there is something urgent to report to Taishi. !"
"Kang", the porcelain bowl was put back on the table by Grand Master Pang.
The hearts of all the people who had slipped to their throats suddenly shattered, and they couldn't help but glared viciously at the Zaoli at the door.
The Zaoli was stunned by the stare, and he was stupid on the spot.
"What are you still doing in a daze?! You haven't brought the old man in yet!" Grand Master Pang shouted.
Zaoli responded, and hurriedly turned around, but before he could take a step out, he was bumped by a person rushing in and staggered.
"T-Teacher, it's not good, something serious happened in the mansion..."
The one who ran in was a man dressed as a servant, only thirty years old, bent and kneeling, his back was wet, and the clothes on his back were soaked in sweat.
"Why are you so panicked?! I'm not afraid of losing the face of the Grand Master's House!" Grand Master Pang said displeased.
"Yes, yes, the villain is rude, rude..." The servant kowtowed.
Grand Master Pang squinted his triangular eyes: "Tell me, what happened in the mansion?"
"Qi, Qi report to Grand Master, the rockery in the back garden of the mansion exploded..."
……
A silence.
Everyone thought they heard it wrong, so no one said anything, but looked calmly at the servant kneeling on the ground.
After a while, Grand Master Pang said slowly, "What did you just say?"
"Go back to Grand Master, the rockery in the mansion exploded."
There was silence again.
Suddenly, Taishi Pang slammed the table and shouted sharply: "It's nonsense, how can the rockery in the back garden be blown up?"
"It just exploded with a bang..." the servant cried.
All eyes shot at Grand Master Pang.
Grand Master Pang's fat face was trembling wildly, and he suddenly shot his eyes at Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and the others with an expression of disbelief.
"Should the grand master go back to the mansion to take a look..." Mr. Gongsun suggested.
Grand Master Pang stared with triangular eyes, turned around on Zhan Zhao and the others opposite, and gritted his teeth: "It's okay, it's just a rockery, I will build another one someday."
"Grand master..." the servant said again.
"What else is there?" Grand Master Pang shouted angrily.
"Those goldfish in the pond in the back garden turned, turned white... died..."
"What?!" Grand Master Pang raised his voice an octave higher, "You said that all the 50 taels of golden carp died?"
"Yes……"
Grand Master Pang's face turned blue.
"It's better for the Grand Master to go back to the residence..." Mr. Bao also suggested sincerely.
"No problem." Grand Master Pang stomped his feet, "It's just a few fish, I'll buy two more in a few days."
"T-Teacher, also, and..."
"what else?!"
"The roof of the book and study room flew off..."
"How can the roof of the study fly?!"
"It's just 'boom boom boom boom swish swish' and flew away..." The servant danced and gestured.
Grand Master Pang's face turned green.
"Teacher, how about..." This time even Zhan Zhao couldn't listen anymore.
"No, it doesn't matter, the big deal is that I will build another study." Grand Master Pang still stared at Zhan Zhao, gnashing his teeth.
"T-Teacher..."
"what happened again?!"
"A big pit collapsed on the floor of the grand master's bedroom, and the bed fell into the pit..."
"What?!" Grand Master Pang's face turned pale immediately, his plump figure flickered, and he rolled backwards.
Fortunately, Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and they supported him one by one, so that Taishi Pang was saved from the fate of hitting the back of his head on the ground.
"The grand master should go back to the mansion quickly." Mr. Gongsun said earnestly.
"It's the best policy for Grand Master to return home as soon as possible to deal with the aftermath." Mr. Bao put forward his professional advice.
Taishi Pang gasped for a long while, and then he was relieved, his triangular eyes turned around in a daze, and then he fixedly looked at Master Bao and said in a trembling voice: "Old, something happened in the old man's house, I still, I hope that Master Bao will be with you." The guards will escort the old man back home..."
"Kaifeng Mansion will do its best." Mr. Bao agreed.
Jin Qian looked at it with emotion and reverence:
Tsk tsk, this old crab's persistent spirit is really admirable, the crab's nest is about to be turned upside down, and he is still thinking about fixing the cat.
However, this rockery, pond, roof, pit...
Jin Qian turned his eyes to Bai Yutang who had a suave smile on his face and began to whimper and shake his fan, Zhan Zhao who was first surprised and then calm, Yizhimei who was full of fun, and the somewhat inexplicable Mr. Baihua , as well as the confident Mr. Bao, and Mr. Gongsun, who exudes dazzling and harmless light all over his body, suddenly had a deep understanding of the abnormal behavior of Lao Bao and Gongsun Zhuzi today: Is the mutation of the crab nest? Premeditated?
If that's the case, it's no wonder that these two are as stable as Mount Tai and quiet as virgins, but listen to this meaning... the rockery is roughly equal to the mountain, the pond is roughly equal to the water, the roof is roughly equal to the sky, and the pit is roughly equal to the ground...
Mountains, water, sky, and earth, what a majestic and majestic lineup. Could it be that Lao Bao and Gongsun Zhuzi are looking for a certain four who are especially able to endure hardships, fight, tackle key problems, and The rambunctious mouse should be a foreign aid...
-
To the west of Kaifeng Mansion and to the southeast of the inner city is the Grand Master's mansion, which is luxurious, luxurious and magnificent, exactly: pavilions towering into the clouds, delicate jade trees and flowers like brocades, majestic gates and tight guards.
On normal days, it would be difficult for the common people to get within a hundred meters.But today, when Mr. Bao came to the mansion together with Taishi Pang and the people from Kaifeng Mansion, he saw that outside the mansion, there was a huge crowd of people rubbing their shoulders, many people filled the streets and alleys in front of the mansion. Looking at the past, it is full of black heads, which is really spectacular.
"Hey, did you hear this morning? There was a bang in the Grand Master's Mansion, like a thunder from the sky. It was so loud that it almost deafened your ears."
"I heard it, I heard it, this early in the morning, I almost scared people to death, and I don't know what happened in the Grand Master's Mansion?"
"I heard that the rockery in the Grand Master's Mansion exploded."
"What? The rockery was blown up?! What nonsense are you talking about! The rockery is not a firecracker, so how can it just blow up?"
"Hey, you don't know that, my brother-in-law's neighbor, aunt, son-in-law, third cousin's son, brother-in-law, is a servant in the Grand Master's mansion. He said this himself, and he can't be wrong, and ah..."
"Oh! Don't hold back your appetite, just say it!"
"I heard from him that the roof of the Taishi's study room flew off!"
"Hey, I saw this too. It was just dawn in the early morning. When I came out to empty the toilet, I saw a roof flying away from the Grand Master's Mansion. It flew so fast!"
"Let's not talk about you, who hasn't seen it around here?! How about we all gather here to watch the fun?"
"There are even more strange things. I heard that the fish in the pond in the Grand Master's residence turned white, and a big hole collapsed on the floor of the Grand Master's bedroom, and even the Grand Master's bed fell into the hole!"
"Eh?! There is such a thing? This is too mysterious!"
"Hey, I think it's probably because the grand master has done too many bad things, and he's getting retribution."
"Rational, reasonable!"
All the common people gathered around the Grand Master's mansion, all of them were full of curiosity, their eyes were bright, and they muttered, making gestures while talking, and they were serious, intermittently reaching the ears of Master Bao and Grand Master Pang who hurried over. .
The grand master's official sedan chair reached the gate of the mansion, but before it came to a complete stop, Grand Master Pang stuck his head out, his mouth and face turned green, and he yelled angrily at the guard guard at the door: "Why are you still standing there?! Get rid of these troublemakers?!"
Several servants guarding the gate hurriedly took orders, and put on a fierce look to drive away the gathered people.
But those people were like surging waves, rushing back, rushing up again, taking two steps back, and then taking three steps forward, incessantly, eloquently, quite Xiaoqiang spirit.
In the end, it was Mr. Bao who showed his loyalty and asked the four captains to lead a group of yamen servants in Kaifeng Mansion to persuade them a few words. The people gradually dispersed because of Mr. Bao's face. But if you look around carefully, it is not difficult to see In the corners and alleys, there are many guys who are probing their brains watching.
In short, after the chaos, everyone finally saw the real situation inside the Grand Master's mansion according to the rumors.
In fact, judging from Grand Master Pang's hasty footsteps, nervous expression and the direction he was heading, Grand Master Pang should have planned to go straight to the bedroom, but during the established route to the bedroom, everyone was fortunate to witness the grand occasion in the back garden and study of the Grand Master's mansion.
The first stop: the back garden, where the original rockery is located.
Grand Master Pang stood alone in front of the fairly empty field, his fists clenched tightly, his triangular eyes set on fire, and his robe sleeves were lifted by the gusts of wind and dust.
"This..." Mr. Bao, a majestic LongTuge University scholar and a first-rank official, opened his mouth for a while, but couldn't think of an adjective.
"Cough cough..." Mr. Gongsun, the dignified Chief Registrar of Kaifeng Mansion, first master, literary talent and meticulous thought, only coughed twice to express his surprise.
"..." Mr. Zhan Zhaozhan, the fourth-rank imperial guard with swords and the number one expert in Kaifeng Mansion, who is unrivaled in martial arts and lightness kung fu, has always been not good at words, which is understandable.
As for Bai Yutang, there was only one expression on his face - I smiled smugly, I smiled smugly.
Brother Yizhimei, the four major lieutenants, and all the yamen servants in Kaifeng Mansion were silently surprised.
"The wind is rustling... the rockery is scattered..." Jinqian, the No. 1 mouth in Kaifeng Mansion, lived up to expectations and made an authoritative comment.
The second stop: still the back garden, the side of the pond.
Watching a group of family members shouting and drinking to salvage dozens of golden carps floating on the surface of the pond with their belly upside down, and seeing Grand Master Pang glaring and gnashing his teeth, everyone chose to remain silent.
Third stop: In the study.
Standing in the middle of the study, everyone looked up together, only to see a wide field of vision above the study, with a sweeping view of the overhead scenery, the blue sky is thousands of miles away, the clouds are clear and the wind is light, it is like a rippling morning scene.
Except for Taishi Pang who was furious, the rest of the people were immersed in this beautiful scenery.
"...The weather is good..." Mr. Bao stood quietly for a while, and made a conclusion.
Everyone nodded at the same time.
End point: bedroom.
A large round hole with a diameter of at least [-] meters suddenly appeared in the middle of the majestic grand master's bedroom. In the pit, there was the grand master's carved sandalwood tent bed, but two legs were broken. A few carved flowers were cracked, and a little dust was stained on the hibiscus curtain.
Taishi Pang's face turned from white to blue, from green to purple, from purple to black, and finally turned into a dark face comparable to that of Mr. Bao. He glared at Mr. Bao fiercely and shouted: "Mr. Bao, the public security in Bianliang City in Tokyo belongs to Kaifeng. Under the jurisdiction of the mansion, the old man's mansion has become, and has become like this, the entire Kaifeng mansion cannot absolve itself of the blame, this old man must play a book in front of the Holy Master, and punish you for the crime of unfavorable supervision!"
As soon as this remark came out, the faces of the people in Kaifeng Mansion, who were still watching the show, suddenly changed.
Jin Qian couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words, and said in his heart:
This old crab's words really hit the nail on the head, this Kaifeng mansion manages the safety and security of Bianliang, Tokyo, and now that the Grand Master's mansion has been tossed into such a state, Kaifeng mansion must be inseparable.Tsk tsk, old Bao, even if you want to find four mice or other messy guys to make trouble, you should always leave yourself a way out.
Thinking of this, Jin Qian hurriedly looked towards Master Bao.
Master Bao lowered his head and lowered his eyes, clasped his fists and said respectfully: "What the Grand Master said is true, Bao Zheng is not in supervision, he is indeed guilty, Bao Zheng will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, and give the Grand Master an explanation!"
Speaking of this, Mr. Bao suddenly turned his head, stared straight at Jin Qian with his sharp eyes, and said seriously: "Lieutenant Jin, I will leave this matter to you."
"Eh?!" Jin Qian suddenly turned pale with shock.
Leave it to us? !Is there a mistake? !Could it be that Lao Bao's plan of retreat is to pull us as a backstop? !
Not to mention Jin Qian, the rest of the people were also very surprised, Grand Master Pang was furious and shouted loudly: "Bao Heizi, what do you mean, are you planning to use a sixth-rank school captain to fool this old man?!"
Master Bao's face darkened when he heard this, and he said in a heavy voice: "The grand master's words are wrong! Since the grand master knows that Jin Xiaowei is a sixth-rank captain who was appointed by the emperor Jinkou, he naturally knows that Jin Xiaowei is a junior lieutenant. Where did the sixth-rank official rank come from? Captain Jin is a strange person in the world, who can understand ghosts and gods. Ask Sen Luo, it is the best policy to hand over the affairs of the Grand Master's mansion to Captain Jin. How can you be fooled? "
"You, you mean..." Grand Master Pang's face twitched violently, "The old man's house has become like this, it is, it is..."
"I'm afraid it's caused by filth!" Master Bao made a final decision.
"Bao Heizi!" Grand Master Pang's triangular eyes suddenly burst, and bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes, "Don't bully me too much!"
"Bao Zheng based his inferences on the inexplicable explosion of the rockery in the Grand Master's Mansion, the death of the golden carp in the pond for no reason, the tile roof of the study flying away out of thin air, and the strange collapse of the bedroom floor. Bao Zheng really couldn't think of any other reason if it wasn't caused by filth."
"Hmph, maybe it's the work of some stranger!" Taishi Pang turned to Zhan Zhao and the others with triangular eyes, and said with a distorted expression.
"Is there any evidence for the grand master's inference?" Master Bao asked.
"Bao Heizi!!" Grand Master Pang's fat face turned into the color of a pig's liver.
"Since there is no evidence or evidence, why did the Grand Master make such an assertion?"
"you!!"
"Lieutenant Jin Xiao will take care of the matters in the Grand Master's residence. Please don't worry about the Grand Master. It's getting late, and Bao Zheng can't bother you, so I'll take my leave."
After finishing speaking, Master Bao bowed his head to salute, and led the Kaifeng Mansion to leave.
Grand Master Tuliu Pang stood alone in the messy bedroom and beat his chest:
"Bao Heizi!! This Grand Master and you are at odds with each other, and we swear to be incompatible!!"
Until a hundred meters away from the grand master's mansion, he could still hear grand master Pang's howling.
"No wonder a certain stinky cat is so cunning, and Xiao Jinzi is so difficult to deal with. He learned his feelings from his master..." At the same time, he also heard the words from the heart of a certain white mouse.
-
Returning to Kaifeng Mansion again, everyone's state of mind is very different from before, and they all feel elated and relaxed.
Needless to say, no need to ask, just looking at the messy and generous production of the Grand Master's Mansion, everyone guessed in their hearts about who did it, so when they saw the four people who had been waiting in the flower hall for a long time, they were not too surprised .
In the flower hall, the four people were separated from each other.
The first person is dressed in brocade clothes with golden swords, majestic tiger eyes, and the person on the left; the person on the left has a short skirt, a long belt, and a mustache, and holds a goose feather fan; the person in the middle is full of muscles, bearded, and a purple gold hammer on his waist; the person on the right is short in stature. , head tied in a bun, waist with silver claws, are the four masters of the empty island.
When Bai Yutang saw the person coming, he was a little embarrassed, and his peach blossom eyes wandered around for a long time, but finally he couldn't resist the burning eyes of the four mice, so he could only put on a smiling face and said: "Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, all of you coming……"
Zhantianshu Lu Fang sighed, Chudishu Han Zhang shook his head, Chuanshanshu Xu Qing stared, Fanjiangshu Jiang smiled flatly.
Bai Yutang hastily rushed over, and stood obediently beside Sishu, silent.
Mr. Gongsun or Mr. Gongsun appeared in the circle, stepped forward and said: "Can the four get something?"
Lu Fang immediately took a step forward, held up a long wooden box respectfully, and said: "The four mice on the Sky Island have lived up to their expectations, and they have indeed achieved something."
Mr. Gongsun and Zhan Zhao hurried forward to take the wooden box, opened it and inspected it carefully, the contents in the box were dazzling and shining gold, it was the authentic Shangfang sword that had not been seen for a long time.
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.
Master Bao smiled: "The four righteous men have worked hard."
The four mice immediately pulled Bai Yutang and knelt down on one knee at the same time, and they heard Lu Fang, the Zhutian mouse, say: "The matter of Shang Fang's sword was caused by the five mice on the empty island. ?”
"Big brother!" Bai Yutang was startled when he heard the words, and said anxiously, "The matter of Shangfang's sword was done by the fifth brother alone, and has nothing to do with the four brothers. Bai Yutang is solely responsible for all the crimes!"
"Fifth brother!" Lu Fang's face darkened, "Fifth brother, do you still remember the oath you made when you sworn to the four of us?!"
"...Fifth Brother naturally remembers." Bai Yutang lowered his eyes.
"Then you tell Big Brother to listen!"
"...Yes..." Bai Yutang frowned slightly, but kept his eyes shut.
Chu Dishu Han Zhang laughed and said: "Fifth brother doesn't remember, but second brother I remember clearly. I think when the five of us sworn oaths, we made a solemn oath: We will share weal and woe, never give up in adversity..."
"To live and die together, to return to the same age..." Xu Qing, the mountain rat, said seriously.
"If you break this oath, heaven and earth will be abandoned!" Fan Jiangshu Jiang Ping said slowly, waving his goose feather fan, "Fifth brother, although fourth brother is very unwilling to take care of your mess, but under the solemn oath, life and death are at stake, so I have to do it for you." ah!"
The other three mice also shook their heads seriously and let out a long sigh.
"Fourth brother..." Bai Yutang suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
Mr. Bao looked around at the Five Rats for a week, with a happy expression on his face: "I have always heard that the Five Rats are loyal to Bo Yuntian in the empty island. I saw you today, and it really deserves its reputation! The matter of Shangfang's sword, this government has decided not to pursue it. Five righteous men, please stand up." Speak."
The five rats got up one by one and stood aside respectfully.
Bai Yutang looked at the four mice, finally unable to suppress his curiosity, and asked, "Why did the four elder brothers come to Kaifeng, and why did they help Mr. Bao find Shangfang's sword?"
Chedishu Han Zhang put his hands on his chest and said, "It's not because of you, fifth brother! When you left Xingkong Island, the fourth brother dragged us to Bianliang City, saying that he was here to meet the fifth brother. In the end, the fifth brother We didn't wait, but we heard the news that Grand Master Pang would participate in the performance of Master Bao, so the four of us rushed to Kaifeng Mansion to meet Master Bao."
Xu Qing, the mountain mouse, also said in a loud voice: "When we combined Master Bao and Mr. Gongsun, we realized that Shangfang's sword was probably in the Grand Master's Mansion, so Master Bao sent the four of us to find it in the Grand Master's Mansion. sword."
Zhan Tianshu Lu Fang clasped his fists and said: "Master Bao will not blame the past, not only does he not blame the Five Rats, but also entrusts us with a chance to pay off the crime. The Five Rats of Trapped Sky Island are grateful. Believe it or not!"
Do your best? !
Jin Qian couldn't help but twitch, secretly said:
Sure enough, they tried their best, the goods are genuine, and they are innocent. It's a pity that the old crab is so good that a crab's nest is almost like a briquette... How dare to do such a secret thing such as searching for Shang Fang's sword so blatantly and blatantly? It's too ignorant.
"However, it is thanks to Mr. Gongsun's ingenious plan that Shangfang's sword can be retrieved smoothly!" Fan Jiangshu Jiang Ping said suddenly.
Ok?
Brilliant plan?What's the trick?
Isn't it just to steal a sword and make a mess, basically there is no technical content, so how can there be a clever plan?
Jin Qian couldn't help turning his gaze to the silent Gongsun Zhuzi, but found that Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, Yizhimei and Baihua all had the same expression as him: Zhang Er was puzzled.
Mr. Gongsun smiled slightly: "Fourth Master Jiang is absurd."
Jiang Ping also smiled slightly: "The Grand Master's Mansion is well-guarded and the terrain of the mansion is complicated. If Mr. Gongsun hadn't used a series of tricks to divert the tiger away from the mountain and scare the snake away, I'm afraid the four of us are still groping around in the Grand Master's Mansion without a clue."
Tune the tiger away from the mountain?Scared the snake?
Jin Qian and the others were even more confused.
"Fourth brother, don't you always say half a sentence, leave half a sentence, you'll be so anxious to hear it!" Bai Yutang couldn't hold back, and yelled.
Jiang Ping glanced at Bai Yutang, and then slowly said: "Fifth brother knows that he is in a hurry now? Thinking that the fifth brother stole Shang Fang's sword and made a big mistake, why not hurry?!"
"Fourth brother..." Bai Yutang's peachy eyes fluttered, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Jiang Siye, Mr. Gongsun." Zhan Zhao took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "Zhan Zhao also has some puzzles, I hope you two can clarify."
Immediately, Jiang Ping's complexion changed, and he hurriedly replied: "Nan Xia doesn't need to be polite, Jiang Ping is ashamed." Speaking of this, he paused, and then said, "After Grand Master Pang played the book three days ago, I was planning to leave immediately. Going to the Grand Master's Mansion to get back Shangfang's sword, I only listened to Mr. Gongsun's words, so I put it off until the early morning of this morning."
"Why is that?" Bai Yutang asked.
"This is Mr. Gongsun's brilliance." Jiang Pingdao, "Shangfang's sword was stolen by the fifth brother. It was a confidential matter, but it was stolen by other people, and finally it was in the hands of Grand Master Pang. I don't know the twists and turns of the conspiracy. , whom we will fight against, we don't know, if we act rashly, we accidentally make a mistake, and Nan Xia and Fifth Brother have no news, so we can't help, I'm afraid it will be very bad."
"So, the four of us spent two whole nights staying at the grand master's mansion, so as to find out the reality of that grand master." Han Zhang said.
"It turns out that there are more guards in the Grand Master's Mansion, but there is nothing unusual." Xu Qing was a little annoyed.
"However, Grand Master Pang is also a treacherous and cunning man. All the guards in the mansion are of general standards. He himself does not leave the gate, and does not enter the second gate. He sits in the mansion, making it impossible for people to guess where the sword is hidden. I thought God didn't know. Unknowingly stealing away Shang Fang's sword, but there is no way to do it." Lu Fang also said.
"Fortunately, the Zhan guards came back in time, otherwise it would be really difficult." Mr. Gongsun looked at Zhan Zhao and smiled.
"What do you mean by Mr. Gongsun's words?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled.
"When you are in a hurry, your heart must be unstable, and your thinking must be lacking. The Grand Master's Mansion has many eyes and ears. Someone must have notified the Grand Master's Mansion about the return of the guards to the city. Grand Master Pang saw that the time limit was up and the great work was about to be accomplished. I heard it at such a critical juncture. Guard Zhan went back to the city, naturally he was suspicious and restless, that's why he came to Kaifeng Mansion, trying to hold Guard Zhan back and prevent him from changing." Speaking of this, Mr. Gongsun looked at the four mice again, and said with a smile, " It's a pity that Taishi Pang is ignorant and ignorant, he only knows that there is a 'Royal Cat' in Kaifeng Mansion, but he doesn't know that there are 'Five Rats' in Jianghu."
When Jin Qian heard this, he finally understood, this is the "trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain".Tsk, Emotional self, Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, Yizhimei, and Baihua boy are all fish and bugs who catch old crabs out of their holes—to be precise, Zhan Zhao is the real fish and bugs, and the rest is at best to serve as side dishes for Zhan Zhao earthworms.
Mr. Jiang Pingchao Gongsun nodded slightly, and continued: "There is no one in the Grand Master's Mansion. If there is a change, there will be chaos. The guards will naturally gather at the most important guarding place. Exploding rockery, poisonous golden carps, and flying roofs are just disturbances." People's eyes, charming mind, throwing stones to ask for directions."
Han Zhang smiled: "In the end, those guards and guards all ran towards Grand Master Pang's bedroom... Hehe, so I dug a hole under the grand master's bedroom. What a coincidence, I found it under the old grand master's bed. I got Shang Fang’s sword.”
Everyone was stunned, Jin Qian was speechless.
So, this is a conspiracy to scare the snake?
This "grass" was beaten too hard.
"But the act of blowing up the rockery, poisoning the golden carp, and flying the roof..." Mr. Gongsun gently stroked his beard, implying something.
Look, look, even Gongsun Zhuzi thinks this move is outrageous.
"Mr. Gongsun, this is all the idea of the fourth brother, don't do anything about the three of us!" Xu Qing, the mountain rat, saw Mr. Gongsun's expression, and his intuition was to quickly separate the relationship.
The other three mice also looked at Jiang Ping at the same time.
Jiang Ping, on the other hand, waved his goose feather fan leisurely and unhurriedly: "Mr. Gongsun, do you still remember Mr. Gongsun's explanation when the four of us were leaving?"
"Strange behavior can be called the work of ghosts." Mr. Gongsun said solemnly.
"Weird things can be big or small." Jiang Ping said with a leisurely smile, "However, restraining hands and feet and making small troubles have never been the style of the Five Rats of Trapped Island."
Mr. Gongsun raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The Five Rats of Trapped Sky Island really deserve their reputation."
"Mr. Gongsun, thank you." Jiang Ping laughed back.
Slightly curling the oily mustache, gently shaking the goose feather fan, Jiang Ping, the fan of Jiang Ping, smiled happily; twisting the three-foot black beard with his hands, the phoenix eyes shone with light, and Mr. Gongsun opened his eyes and brows with joy; the two pictures are very similar Standing opposite each other with smiles, there is a sense of sympathy, and the meaning of heroes who hate to meet each other.
"Second brother, do you think that fourth brother looks a bit like Mr. Gongsun when he smiles?" Bai Yutang said tremblingly.
Chu Shu Han Zhang nodded in a daze.
Everyone around trembled at the same time.
There was a chill behind Jin Qian's back, and a look of absoluteness suddenly appeared in his mind:
The first couplet: Water Rat Feather Fan, talking and laughing, Pang's mansion was wiped out;
The second couplet: The green bamboos are facing the wind, the Confucianism is light, and there are so many heroes at the moment.
Horizontal batch: Fu with a black belly.
Tsk tsk, Bianliang City is far away...
-
The theft of Shang Fang's sword finally came to an end after half a month after the emperor turned a blind eye, Mrs. Bao deliberately took sides, and Grand Master Pang complained of illness in a rage.
All the people involved in the case were acquitted and released, and each has his own destination.
Brother Yizhimei bid farewell to Mr. Bao, they naturally went back to their respective dens and stole from each other.
After considering the practical value of Iljimae, Jin Qian asked where Iljimae lived.
"Linfeng Building." Yizhimei replied straightforwardly.
"Hey? Didn't Brother Mei make a promise that as long as someone successfully breaks through the barrier, he will leave Linfeng Tower immediately?"
"But I didn't say I couldn't go back."
