treacherous world

"Golden Coffin Town?" The fourth son leaned over to look at the map in Gongsun's hand, "What a scary name!"

Seeing him happily rolling around on the rabbit fur blanket, Gongsun stretched out his hand to pat his buttocks, "We are here to deal with serious business, we must act like adults, don't always think about playing, look at Xiao Liangzi." , stretched out his finger and pointed outside.

The fourth son raised his face, and saw Xiao Liang riding a horse following him unhurriedly outside the car window, holding a knife bigger than him in his hand, looking majestic.

The fourth son looked at it with his chin in his hand, couldn't help but smile and frowned, "Hmm... Xiao Liangzi is so handsome!"

Xiao Liang seemed to feel the gaze of the fourth son, and turned his head.

The fourth son hurriedly pretended not to see him and raised his face.

Xiao Liang smiled dotingly, and poked his head in, "Jin'er, are you hungry?"

The fourth son shook his head.

"Are you thirsty?"

The fourth son then shook his head.

The two shadow guards booed, "Do you want to kiss?"

"I hate it." The little four rubbed into the thick fluff of the stone.

Scissors flicked its tail, and Bao Zheng, who was leaning against it, couldn't help but move—it was so comfortable.

Pang Yu leaned against the window and sighed one hundred and one breaths.

Bao Yan raised his head from a pile of files to look at him, "Why are you sighing?" My father must be very irritable now. "Pang Yu didn't tell Grand Master Pang and followed Bao Zheng and his party, because he knew that this trip was dangerous, and even if he told his father, he would not agree to him coming, but if Xiao Mantou and the people from Kaifeng Mansion left, after a while he would Dad is going west again, how boring that is!

It's just that his eyelids have been twitching all the time this morning, so his father is probably on fire!

Sure enough, in the grand master's mansion at this time, Pang Ji screamed after seeing Pang Yu's book, and that sunspot abducted a seedling from his Pang family's thousands of hectares!

Zhan Zhao sat on the horse, looking back from time to time.

Seeing that he was absent-minded, Zhao Pu smiled and said, "Bai Yutang is coming soon."

"Huh?" Zhan Zhao turned to look at him, seeing his understanding expression, he was a little embarrassed, "Yes, the movements are really slow."

"Speaking of it." Zhao Pu asked Zhan Zhao curiously, "How have you been these past two months?"

"Ahem." Zhan Zhao coughed a few times to ease the embarrassment, "Then what, it's good."

"They all lived on the empty island?" Zhao Pu continued to ask.

"Yes." Zhan Zhao nodded, inexplicably embarrassed.

"I thought you guys would go out to play around." Zhao Pu said slowly, "For example, go to the south and north."

Zhan Zhao smiled dryly, and said in his heart that he wanted to go at first, but he stayed in Bai Yutang's room on the empty island for two months, barely stepped out of the room, and didn't get out of bed for the first few days... …

The more Zhan Zhao thought about it, the more he got flustered, so he took a deep breath.

Zhao Pu looked at him a little funny, thinking of the time when he and Gongsun just got married, it was a world turned upside down.

When noon was approaching, Ziying and Zheying, who went to explore the road ahead, came back, "My lord, there is a boundary marker of Jincoffin Town ahead, all roads and small roads can enter the city, and there is a station on the road."

Zhan Zhao and Zhao Pu nodded.

Zhan Zhao arrived in front of the carriage at the back and asked Bao Zheng, "My lord, Jin Coffin Town has arrived, and there is a post station ahead."

Bao Zheng nodded, "Guard Zhan inquires first, I won't show up, remember, keep a low profile and be cautious."

Zhan Zhao nodded to show he knew.

Afterwards, Zhao Pu escorted Bao Zheng into Golden Coffin Town with a carriage, and Zhan Zhao took Pang Yu and Bao Yan to inquire.

Just as he was about to leave, Gongsun called Zhan Zhao, "Take the fourth son with you."

Zhan Zhao nodded, and carried the fourth son out from the car window to take him away. Shi Shi always followed the fourth son closely, and wanted to follow him, but was held down by Gongsun.

Shitou was very dissatisfied with not being able to follow the fourth son, and turned his head to protest Gongsun, wagging his tail.

Xiao Liang watched the fourth son being taken away with reluctance, while Zhao Pu waved to him, "Let's continue on our way."

The chariots and horses continued on their way, Gongsun asked Bao Zheng, "I wondered why the lord agreed to let the fourth son come, because it was convenient for spying?"

Bao Zheng smiled and nodded, "It is true that it may be dangerous to take Xiaosi on this trip, but Xiaoliangzi and rock-scissors can completely guarantee his safety. The most important thing is... no one will bring a doll to spy, Right? The government was originally afraid that you would not agree."

Gongsun smiled, "I also thought of it at the time, and indeed my lord thought the same way."

The crowd divided into two groups, Zhan Zhao and others arrived at the post house near the town store, while Bao Zheng and the others continued on their way to the interior of Jincoffin Town.

Before that, Zhao Pu had ordered someone to buy a house in Jin Coffin Town, and opened a medicine shop in order to deceive others.Everyone went there first, and then Zhan Zhao and others arrived at Huihe.

The post station is not big, and there are few people, so it looks relatively depressed.

Zhan Zhao originally thought that it would be slightly warmer from Kaifeng to central Sichuan, but this generation is very humid, cold and clammy, but it feels colder than in Kaifeng.

Bao Yan doesn't know kung fu, and both of them are wrapped in thick clothes.

"Yo, some guest officers."

As soon as the buddy saw a few people dressed up and behaved well, he hurriedly greeted them.Wiping the table, he asked, "Are you here for business or for fun? It's winter."

Zhan Zhao sat down with his robe lifted, and noticed that the guy's eyes rolled wildly when he was asking questions, and there were thick calluses on his hands.There are calluses on the hands, and many things can be judged by the position of the calluses.Usually people with calluses on their palms and fingertips mostly do heavy work.People who practice kung fu are also prone to calluses. Most of them grow on the tiger's mouth when they practice swords, and they grow on the joints of the back of their hands when they practice boxing.

This person has calluses on his mouth and back of his hands, which shows that he is an expert in martial arts—such an ordinary post station, shouldn't there be such a person who knows martial arts as a buddy?

Pang Yu smiled, "Oh, this child is not in good health. We heard that there is a genius doctor in the Tang Sect in the middle of Shu, so we want to seek medical treatment."

The clerk looked at the fourth son and smiled, "Oh, you came to see Mrs. Tang? But Mrs. Tang has eccentricities, and she won't save people for nothing."

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, "I heard that it is necessary to keep a family heirloom or teach Mrs. Tang a set of housekeeping skills, right?"

"Yes, of course, this child is so cute. If the old woman closed her eyes, she might be healed." The clerk asked with a smile, "What's wrong with you?"

Pang Yu and Zhan Zhao looked at each other, oops—is it a disease...

The fourth son raised his face, "Cold-dryness syndrome."

The buddy was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood, "Oh, the baby is from Jiangnan, right?"

"Yeah." The fourth son nodded and said something lively in dialect, "He's from Shaoxing."

The guy grinned, "Oh... no wonder."

"Dude, you also know medicine?" Bao Yan was curious.

"Uh, hehe, yes, what do the guest officials eat?"

"Four steamed buns and a pot of hot tea."

"Okay." The man ran inside and got ready.

Pang Yu glanced at it, leaned over and said to Zhan Zhao, "Oh, I said..."

Zhan Zhao nodded, this guy has a problem.Seeing no one around, Zhan Zhao curiously asked the fourth son, "Sir, what is cold-dryness syndrome?"

The fourth son leaned over and whispered in his ear, "It's hot and cold, children in the south get it easily, and they can't die if they can't be cured."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, thinking that this little idiot is getting smarter and smarter.

At this moment, the guy came out with steamed buns and hot tea. His movements were not very skillful, and everyone knew it well—it was estimated that He Zheng had already guarded against spying, so he sent someone to ambush here.

The four of them also gave up the idea of ​​asking questions, and chatted nonsense while eating.

Little Si was shaking his feet and nibbling on the steamed buns, when suddenly... he felt something rubbing against his feet.

Wearing thick boots, I can't feel it, and the fourth son looked down...

"Well?"

Everyone bowed their heads, and saw a big black cat.This cat is quite energetic, nearly twice the size of ordinary cat demons, shiny and shiny, with a black body and no stray hairs.The body is strong, fat and thin, and the face is good-looking. The head is round and round, and the eyes are also round and round. A pair of big golden eyes and long eyelashes.

At this time, it was squinting its eyes, concentrating on rubbing the little four's buckskin boots.

"Ah, cat!" The fourth son stretched out his hand and hugged the beautiful black cat.The black cat seemed to be frozen, it rubbed against the little four's rabbit fur cloak, continued to rub, and meowed twice.

"Hey." Pang Yu also reached out and poked the black cat, "This cat looks good!"

"There are some red hairs on the ears." Bao Yan leaned over to look, "It's so big, it can't be a red-eared cat, right?"

"Red-eared cat?" Zhan Zhao found it fresh, and subconsciously reached out to touch his own ear. Suddenly, Bai Yutang's beautiful collarbone and his joking phrase "red-eared cat" flashed in front of his eyes.When his face became hot, Zhan Zhao quickly shook his head—he was going to die, Acacia was sick!That stupid mouse is so slow, it's not coming yet!

This cat looks very affectionate, or does it particularly like Xiaosi?In short, he kept on rubbing it, and Zhan Zhao and the others frantically touched it, and it meowed twice in enjoyment, as if it was acting like a baby.

"It's so cute!" The fourth son hugged and rubbed back and forth.The cat's tail flicked back and forth gently, rubbing against Xiaosi's arm, appearing extremely intimate.

While everyone was admiring the cat's cuteness, he heard the guy screaming suddenly, "Ah! Don't hold it, quickly, put it down!" He said, he picked up the iron hoe in his hand, which looked like I want to come over and kill the cat.

"Meow!" The black cat obviously sensed danger, and yelled, and the hair on its tail exploded.

Zhan Zhao and the others were also shocked, and the fourth son quickly hugged the cat and hid beside Zhan Zhao.

Pang Yu asked the guy, "Hey, brother, what are you doing?"

"Don't...quick, put it down!" the guy shouted hoarsely.

Zhan Zhao looked at the cute black cat in Xiaosi's hand with a blank face, "You mean this cat?"

"Five...five..."

Zhan Zhao tilted his head, he is very sensitive to the two characters "Bai and Wu" now, looked at the cat, and wondered if there was a "Five" in the kitten's name, right?Or what kind of "five"?That can't be killed!

"Wow!" The man threw the shovel, screamed and ran away as if he was overly frightened, shouting, "Don't follow me, I didn't see you, I didn't see you!"

Following his movement, several people working in the post station in the kitchen and nearby also came out to watch.The strange thing is that when they saw the black cat, they all threw away the things in their hands and ran away, rolling and crawling as if they had seen King Shura of Yama.

Zhan Zhao and the others saw early on that those people were obviously on duty here with missions, and they were very good at it, so why did they scare them away?Still so embarrassed.

After a while, the station was empty.

Zhan Zhao asked Bao Yan blankly, "Is there anything special about this red-eared cat?"

Bao Yan was also confused, and stretched out his hand to touch his head, "The red-eared cat is actually a kind of lynx. It is more aggressive and larger, and it is not very close to people, so it is not suitable for domestication. It is just a species of lynx. Nothing special."

Zhan Zhao and Pang Yu glanced at each other, and looked at the black cat that was still rubbing against the fourth son - it didn't look fierce or unfriendly at all.

Xiaosi held its paws, the black cat's paws were snow white.

"It turned out to be a black civet cat with white claws." Bao Yan smiled.

"The white-clawed black civet cat is indeed an unlucky cat, and most people don't keep it at home." Pang Yu poked the cat's soft chest, "But it shouldn't be so frightened."

Zhan Zhao took a look at Siwai's situation and decided not to waste time here, "Leave, little four, this cat is so beautiful that it might belong to someone else, let's let it go and go to the town first.

"Oh." Little Sizi kissed the black cat with some reluctance, put it on the ground, and gave it half a steamed bun, even though he knew it would definitely not like it.

When everyone got up, Zhan Zhao still put money for the meal on the table, picked up the fourth son and left.

But the strange thing is that after everyone took a few steps, the black cat caught up, rubbed against Zhan Zhao's calf, and raised his face, "Meow."

Zhan Zhao knelt down and patted its head, "Good boy, we can't take you with us."

The cat sat down, flicked its tail at Zhan Zhao, stretched out its pink tongue to lick the corner of its mouth, and grabbed Zhan Zhao's robe with its white paws, as if not letting him go.

The fourth son's heart softened when he saw it, and asked Zhan Zhao pitifully, "Meow, shall we raise it?"

Zhan Zhao hesitated, brought a big black cat?

The fourth son approached Zhan Zhao, "When I saw it, I thought of you and Bai Bai."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows and looked at him puzzled.

"Look, white paws, red ears! There are also golden eyes, and Baibai doesn't always say you are a black cat? And look at him, he is so proud and beautiful, he looks like Baibai..."

Before the fourth son finished speaking, Zhan Zhao handed him over to Pang Yu, stretched out his arms and picked up the black cat, looked at it for a while, "Hmm! It is indeed a rare and good cat, and he lifted the cat's hind legs to look at it. Take a look, "Oh?Still a male cat!Okay, take it home and breed it for the big tiger and the little tiger! After finishing speaking, Lehe hugged the cat and left.

The fourth son scratched his head and looked at Pang Yu.

Pang Yu looked at him with admiration on his face, "Look, Zhan Zhao got the cat, which compares you to others."

The fourth son pursed his lips and raised his face, anyway, the cat stayed!

Everyone got on their horses and hurried into Jinguan Town to join Bao Zheng and the others.

As soon as Zhan Zhao and the others left, two people came out from the forest not far from the station, one old and one young, the older one was ten years old, the younger one was only twelve or thirteen years old, dressed like ordinary civilians.

"Grandpa, did you see that?"

"See, five lives were taken away."

"These people really don't know how to live or die?"

"Would you like to go and see?"

"Yeah."

"See when they die."

"Well, look at them all dead!"

The grandfather and grandson chased Zhan Zhao and the others hand in hand, and after the two left, a man in white came out from the forest.Leaning against the tree and looking at the two people going away, he slightly raised his pretty eyebrows—a five-life cat?
