[Rat cat] The legend of Lou Xiaochong

"Lou, Xiao, Chong." A thin piece of paper was slapped on the corner of the table, Fourth Master Jiang raised his eyebrows with a raised beard, and walked away with a fan.

Bai Yutang put down the porridge bowl with his left hand and the spoon with his right hand, exhaled, and gently lifted the piece of paper.

The paper is the most common eight-line silk column, with only a few lines of characters the size of copper coins written sparsely.With the number of heroes that the fourth brother makes friends with, and the richness of confidante, is this the only thing that can be found out?But... no matter what, it was my fourth brother who was yelling not to do free work for the government, but after all, he checked the time for the sake of the fifth brother.

Bai Yutang frowned and pushed away the table, found the stack of mechanism diagrams that Lou Xiaochong had left under the saddle earlier, and carefully looked through them one by one.Bai Fu stood with his arms folded and waited on him, watching his young master being so teased by Jiang Siye's piece of paper that he didn't even eat, and only looked at the stack of papers.But Bai Yutang was concentrating on looking at things there, even if he was looking at a picture book of erotic palaces, the servants would not dare to disturb him casually--this gentleman was born upright, and his martial arts is nothing to say, but this temper, tsk tsk, what's the matter? Really not very good.

After a while, Bai Yutang finally shook his head, rolled up the drawing into a sleeve, ignored the two spoonfuls of porridge he had just stirred, and went out without making a sound.

Bai Wuye walked quickly, and the old family didn't expect to stop him from finishing breakfast, so they could only hum a little tune to clean up the dishes.

If there is anyone in this world who dares to pat his chest and say that he must be faster than Fifth Master Bai, it is probably Master Sun.In the blink of an eye, the fifteenth day of August passed, and soon it will be the Double Ninth Festival.

During the period, Lord Wu went to the capital, but he didn’t find the person he was looking for—according to the dynasty mahan Zhang Long and Zhao Hu who stopped him at the gate of the Kaifeng government office, Mr. Zhan was ordered by the emperor, and he was in charge of the government. Huangcha, where did you go? I have no comment.Finally thinking that Zhan Zhao's house was also in this courtyard, it would not be good to tear down the gate of his house, so Bai Yutang just flung his sleeves, went to his elder brother's restaurant to ask for a private room, and drank alone for a long time to get bored - the so-called God This is the reason why people's wishes are not fulfilled, or good things always take a long time.

All in all, on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, Bai Yutang came to the tavern opened by his mother's family in Jiangning Mansion.Speaking of which, he was most afraid of the mother-in-law nagging about not being allowed to fight and finding a good match early.He had seen a joiner's walking stick in Beijing that was exceptionally well made, so he ordered one based on the godmother's stature. Kick off.Who knew that the third master Xu Qing happened to bring his daughter-in-law to celebrate the old man's birthday on this day, bumped into the fifth younger brother, and was immediately smashed.

But if you come here, you will be at peace, Bai Wuye hugged the wine jar to eat and drink, and then listened to the godmother and the third brother talking about the anecdotes of the world, it was not too boring.

When she was young, the godmother was also a chivalrous woman who traveled all over the world. Now she has retired to the world and opened a small tavern to pass the time. However, she always speaks and acts differently from ordinary old women.At this moment, she is half-crossing one leg, rubbing the pattern of the walking stick just presented by Bai Yutang, and talking about the days of playing with guns and sticks when she was young: "When the first emperor came to the throne, he had such a stick in his hand, Don’t dare to brag too much, but if you don’t say anything, the bandit on the top of the mountain is called grandma—my head of the family is also stupid, just follow behind and watch if there is someone pretending to be dead. Sigh, now, others have disappeared for almost 30 years It's..."

"Godmother, what are you talking about? Look at how good it is now. You don't have to move a finger. Let the juniors serve you and enjoy the blessings." Xu Qing was sad when he heard what the godmother said, and quickly put down the wine jar. Persuade.

"Pfft—you child!" The mother-in-law tapped on the edge of the table and laughed, "But it's true, in a blink of an eye your generation will not be too young, and it's time to get ahead. Speaking of which, our shop assistant was still picking up the other day. What about a young man—on the way back from delivering wine to you, the child was framed by some kind of traitor, with poison on his body, and I asked a few doctors to see him, but he didn’t find anything. Fortunately, God is merciful, It was an old woman whom the old woman met when she was young, who just happened to pass by, and after a few days of getting needles and medicine, she was finally cured."

Speaking of this, the godmother suddenly waved to Xu Qing, told him to come closer, and whispered in her ear: "But that child can talk, knows how to help, and is also handsome. In my opinion, he doesn't look like that." Under the brat, his character is three points higher!" This time, she was gesturing to Bai Yutang who was leaning against the window and eating peanuts.

It was originally intended for him to hear, there is no reason why Bai Yutang could not hear it.After firmly catching a peanut and chewing it, Wu Ye pushed the wine jar away and jumped off the window sill: "Godmother, tell me what errand you want to assign me again, so you don't have to go around and scold me for being lazy and having a bad temper."

"Look, look, it's coming again, isn't it? Who is always talking bad about him in such a spare time." The godmother laughed at Mr. Xu before turning to Bai Yutang, "But having said that, the child is burning When he was confused, the old woman wiped his forehead, but I heard him read many names, and you, Bai Yutang, were among them—why are you bullying others?"

Hearing this, Bai Yutang suddenly knelt down and pressed the low table to get serious: "What does that person look like, what kind of clothes is he wearing? What accent did he speak, and then... where did he go?"

The godmother looked Bai Yutang from head to toe several times, and sighed a few times with emotion: "I haven't seen you brat care so much about who - that child looks like he lost something and ran to look for it, the old woman thought." Ask the buddy to help him find it, but he refuses to say what he lost."

After listening to the godmother talking nonsense for a while, Bai Yutang was sure that it was Zhan Zhao.Zhan Zhao left Xingkong Island on August [-]th, and arrived at the border of Jiangning Prefecture on August [-]th. The itinerary was very fast, and he should have rushed back to Beijing directly, and had never been to other places.Then, whether his poisoning coma occurred because of a puff of strange smoke that night, or some accident happened along the way, is still unknown for a while.But one thing is certain: Bai Yutang is at least half responsible for this matter.If he had been firmer that day and had held Zhan Zhao to ask his sister-in-law to feel his pulse, or had forced him to stay overnight to recover his energy before leaving, Zhan Zhao might not have had to suffer from the illness later on.

But I don't know what he lost and where to find it.

The birthday was also worshipped, and the gift was offered, Bai Yutang picked up the knife to bid farewell to the godmother, and went out to find someone.Third brother Xu was afraid that his godmother would be unhappy, so he pleaded for his fifth brother while hiccupping: "Let him go, he—"

"Okay!" The godmother squinted at Xu Qing, then glared at Bai Yutang, "Go. You are willing to come today, and the godmother is very satisfied. It is really embarrassing for you young people to sit honestly with me, an old woman— — Be careful, there are many people in this world who are smarter and better at martial arts than you!"

After leaving the tavern, Bai Yutang didn't know where Zhan Zhao was, and after more than half a month, he didn't feel surprised where he was.After finding out that his elder brother's friend in the local area entrusted him to find clues, he just wandered around in a white robe and a white horse.Sometimes I don’t know how to explain the old horse knows the way. In short, Bai Wuye didn’t go back to Xingkong Island. Arrived in Beijing.

It was a coincidence that he had come back, just as he landed on the wall of the Kaifeng government office, he saw the man he was looking for hastily stepping in the door, only glanced at him, but walked towards the study without stopping.Bai Yutang squatted on the top of the wall and laughed: This Kaifeng government office is quite well-defended. He just pulled out a straw stick and played with it, when several police officers surrounded him.

"What are you doing!" A young yamen servant with a loud voice raised his finger and asked.

"Report to the police." Bai Yutang spat out the stick, and simply sat down with his back on the bricks to tease them. Anyway, Zhan Zhao won't be able to come out for a while, "Grandpa Bai lost a cat. I heard he came to this yard. So look for it."

"Nonsense, nonsense! Our brothers are constantly patrolling in the morning and evening, how can there be any cats..." The little yamen servant was stomping his feet to argue, when suddenly the corner of his clothes was pulled by someone behind him: "This person is looking for trouble, I will go find reinforcements Yes, hold on."

The little yamen servant looked back and saw that the companion who was talking had already disappeared, so he had to turn back with a serious expression: "You, you are not allowed to find fault!"

"Whoever finds fault, I will report to the police."

"You, you are clearly looking for faults!"

"No, no, it's a report."

Bai Yutang teased the little yamen servant to wait for Zhan Zhao to come out, but the little yamen servant was also clumsy, and just these two sentences babbled around, causing the few patrolling people around him to shrink back and hold back their laughter.Just playing like this, I suddenly heard a clear and faint voice: "If you report the crime, first go outside the gate and beat the drums to complain—but if you make a false report, you will have to pay forty boards, Young Xia Bai."

Following the sound, the person walking over there in a blue robe is not the famous Gongsun Ce.A yamen servant who had had enough of laughing trotted over and took the bundle of official documents in his hand, and Bai Yutang also cupped his hands in greeting: "Mr. Gongsun, are you all right?"

"Thanks to Young Hero Bai, the mansion is fairly stable these days." Seeing that Bai Yutang was not here to cause trouble, Gongsun Ce heaved a sigh of relief, and asked him with a smile, "Young Hero rarely has free time, so I think he came to find Zhan Weiwei? "

"Yes." Bai Yutang admitted straightforwardly, "Isn't breaking the law?"

Gongsun Ce laughed: "Wang Fa doesn't care about people making friends - but there is one thing," he suddenly ordered seriously, "Guard Zhan has a knife wound on his body, if you are interested, you can have some warm food with him But this wine is not something you can touch!"

"Ah?" Bai Yutang untied the wine gourd from his waist and shook it.It's hard to keep your mouth shut and keep this gourd.

The author has something to say:

The transition is almost over, and I can start playing with my negative IQ again ==【Try hard to turn through the small notebook to record the foreshadowing, so I said, there is no one who writes a detective case without an outline, Wangtian.

Well, Miao felt sorry for Zhan Weiwei very much, so he could finally let him live a good life with someone waiting on his back. Give you cat meat to eat.
