[Rat cat] The legend of Lou Xiaochong

It turned out that he was delusional, Bai Yutang let out a breath, and slowly sat down while supporting the big gilt bead on the roof, looking up at the sky.

The sun was still shining brightly just now, but in such a blink of an eye, another cloud was pulled by the wind.It's good, this way, when you look around again, you won't be afraid of the sun shining in your eyes.

Let's talk about Bai Yutang squatting on the roof of the building, watching the people and horses running over from the end of the official road.It was his fourth brother, still dressed in the same dress as when he left, but Ma Ke was not the original horse—but looked much more energetic than the original old miscellaneous horse.

The horse neighed and raised its hooves and stood down. Jiang Ping jumped off the horse and patted up and down. A pair of Fenshui Emei thorns were well hidden, and no one paid attention to this side—it was broad daylight, and this was the most powerful Xiangyang for hundreds of miles. How many carriages, horses and pedestrians come and go in and out of the city, there are many characters who have traveled all over the three mountains and five mountains, and often go to the city to talk about buying and selling, they are all well-informed.Want to provoke everyone to take a few more glances?At least you have to have a white horse in white, shake a snow-white folding fan, and chant a few lines of poetry aloud.

Jiang Ping went to lead the horse to find an inconspicuous corner to rest, but he didn't know that his fifth younger brother was looking at him on the roof over there.He hid like this for a while in the shade, during which a man dressed as a shopkeeper in a gray coat and a little coat passed by and threw him a package.Suddenly he heard a soft whistle at the corner of Dongtou, Jiang Ping looked out, hey, it really was a round-faced young disciple of his own, gesturing to him: Come!Jiang Ping walked over, patted the kid on the shoulder to comfort him, and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

"No way!" The round-faced disciple gestured a few times, "Hey, you have a quick temper, and you're not as good-natured as Fourth Master said!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ping interrupted him with a wave: "Why do you care about his temper? Tell me quickly, what about others?"

"People..." The disciple scratched his head and turned around to look. Jiang Ping followed him to see that Zhan Zhao, dressed in a red official robe, was hurriedly chatting with several disciples and came over.

Wait a minute——Jiang Ping rushed over to stop him a few steps: "Master Zhan, how can you do it with your body? After running a few steps, you will be surrounded by tens of thousands of troops! Hurry up and change your clothes!" Zhan Zhao stuffed the cloth bag he was holding in his arms, "The woods over there, go change it soon, we have to go to the north!"

Zhan Zhao frowned and was dragged by Fourth Master Jiang to change clothes without even standing up.On the other side, looking at Bai Yutang who they want to call but can't call from the top of the building, they couldn't help standing on the corner of the cornice to look around.He didn't think it himself, but with so many people passing by, they wouldn't all be blind, or they would attract people's eyes.

"Bai Yutang!" Suddenly hearing someone calling him, Bai Yutang lowered his head to look.

Downstairs, Lou Xiaochong stood there looking up, beside Shen Zhongyuan.What Shen Zhongyuan was tossing and tossing was a bright golden sign, and a group of guards who surrounded him with huffs and hustles suddenly didn't know whether to nod and bow down and call "Master Shen", or to keep an eye on the man on the top of the building who didn't know how to climb the mountain White sugar.

"Come down, play with me!" Lou Xiaochong waved and shouted persistently.

Bai Yutang looked at the situation, jumped down, especially heavy on his body, and stirred up dust half a person's height, and the guards backed up half a step, allowing him to make an empty circle and rush towards Lou Xiao.

This ground has just broken ground and built a building, and there is no green bricks and square stones. There is such a large amount of dust that even Shen Zhongyuan covered his nose and waved his hands back two steps: "Boy, what are you doing? Know the rules." without!"

That's it!The guards quickly rallied in agreement—this Lord Shen, it seems that he is a new celebrity in the palace, he must be hugging his thighs.Master Shen has spoken, so he has to immediately yell at him without interrupting.

On the other hand, Lou Xiaochong didn't hide from the dust, didn't talk, just took Bai Yutang's hand like that: "Come in and play, it's fun!"

"Don't—" A guard with a knife on his head rushed to stop him.He recognized this young man, he came with the prince on the day of the ribbon cutting!But now that all the organs in this building are activated, they dare not step in, how dare they let the prince's beloved child in?

"Cough!" Shen Zhongyuan coughed heavily, stared helplessly at Bai Yutang for a while on purpose, and turned to the guards: "Master Shen, I was ordered to come to the building to put something, do you have any objections?"

"No, no!" There was another burst of nodding and bowing with a smile, and the head guard signaled to his subordinates: Everyone is so dumb, what are you doing in a daze!Go and close the gate!

It's that simple?Bai Yutang glanced at Shen Zhongyuan, this "Master Shen", he didn't seem to have reached such a status when he met him a few days ago, and he didn't know whether he was opportunistic or glib.But right now, it's a good thing to be able to swagger into the building. When Bai Yutang stepped into the threshold, he glanced at the forest in the north. .

Whatever the hell they do, is fifth master still afraid?

Seeing that Lou Xiaochong had already run to the stairs, Bai Yutang nodded to Shen Zhongyuan who walked around the building looking at the sculptures, and followed him in.

Lou Xiaochong can ignore what happened to the child lying on the ground floor, but Bai Yutang can't be silent.Now that the doors and windows are open, so many guards have come to see them, we can't say "the prince sent us to store things, so we don't care about this matter", right? isn't it?

Pretending to be concerned, he called the two guards to carry the child out and spray water to wake him up. Bai Yutang went up to the second floor and found that Lou Xiaochong was hugging and stroking the stupid children one by one calling their names.It was obvious that Lou Xiaochong was acquainted with them, but the tall, thin man who was standing back in the corner had two protruding goldfish eyes, and he seemed a little too angry to speak up.

Ah.Bai Yutang laughed secretly in his heart, but his face turned serious: "Didn't you see that Young Master Lou is reminiscing about the past here? What are you still doing here? But don't you take Master Lou seriously!"

"...Hmph." The man didn't say much, rolled his eyes lightly, and went down the ladder.Bai Yutang watched him go out to whisper to someone, and wondered to himself, is there something wrong with his address?There's always some urgency—but there's no ladder on this second floor that leads to the top.He turned to a place where Lou Xiaochong could see the truth, and made a slight gesture.

I don't know if Lou Xiaochong saw it, but he still hugged all the children, said a few words to the older ones, and wiped the nose of the younger ones - wiped his sleeves - causing Bai Yutang to frown slightly.Then he took the children together and told them all to come downstairs.

After driving away the children, Lou Xiaochong turned around and came back, Bai Yutang was looking at him with arms folded, expressionless.

Bai Yutang just couldn't figure out what he wanted to do, he learned it from his predecessors in the world, pretended to be unpredictable when he didn't understand, and maybe he won a battle for his life.Then he saw Lou Xiao rushing Bibi's lips, beckoning him to listen.

He said that King Xiangyang put all the most important things in the box on the third floor.

Nonsense is not it.Bai Yutang shrugged his shoulders: "Anyone can guess this kind of thing. Let's talk about how to solve the mechanism, you must know—oh wait, didn't you have a broken brain? Why..."

"When I met Zhan Zhao that day, I remembered it." Lou Xiaochong suddenly smiled, "There's no solution, that's how they build buildings, it's a dead end. No matter what, one time a building is opened, one person will be killed. This It’s also my fault, because I tried to touch it once before, and they changed it ruthlessly.”

"Then what do you mean?" Bai Yutang realized that although Lou Xiaochong was suspicious, he was not wary of him from the bottom of his heart. At this time, he was not worried about being pushed to fill in the agency.

Lou Xiaochong didn't say anything.He just smiled and disappeared out of thin air, only a few rattling sounds came from the corner a little south of the west.

I just disappeared, how many times is this the first time?Bai Yutang clenched his fist, took a breath, and walked to the sound.The Western wounded gate and the Southwestern Shengmen gate are located in the middle, which is caused by the transformation of the octagonal building into a nine-cornered building-the orientation is not correct.If I had to say it, Bai Yutang looked at the sunlight, it was more towards the west, but this west...is the sky against the stars?

He stretched out his hand and knocked on the side of the pillar a few times, watching the ceiling move out of the hole, and Bai Yutang went up to the third floor, safe and sound.

Take down the box hanging from the top, and put it away, don't look at it urgently.Bai Yutang was curious about what was on this floor. After searching for a long time, he heard Shen Zhongyuan coughing and urging him, and then he roughly guessed that one of the rotating beads was stuck, so the whole mechanism couldn't be activated no matter how mysterious it was.

He pretended to leave the small building, and was with Shen Zhongyuan.The guards also kept silent about the fact that Lou Xiaochong didn't follow. Before leaving, Bai Yutang heard a young guard sigh.

"Okay, Bai Lao Wu, tell me not to delay—" just outside the city gate, taking advantage of the noise of the crowd, Shen Zhongyuan smiled and took a bag stuffed by a vegetable farmer and handed it to Bai Yutang, "Hurry up and go north to find it." Zhan Nanxia, ​​you are good at stealing cats and dogs, maybe you can be used there."

He weighed the package in his hand, the heavy one was probably made of paper.Bai Yutang cupped his fist lightly: "Thank you." After saying that, he turned around and left, even the horses were prepared for him over there.

Watching Bai Yutang leave, Shen Zhongyuan smiled: What are you thanking, you silly boy.Then, of course, he entered the city with his bright golden signboard, rushing to finish the work here, and he had to retreat to find Brother Zhihua.
