treacherous world

The shape of this golden coffin is quite peculiar, and the inside is not empty, but a human figure is carved out, and the rest of the coffin is solid and golden.

Grand Master Pang stared at it for a long time, and couldn't help reaching out and knocking twice, "Could it be pure gold? No wonder it's so heavy!"

Bao Zheng looked at him with admiration, "The focus of your concern is really different from that of normal people!"

Grand Master Pang coughed, and he also wanted to cover up the terrifying atmosphere a little bit, because apart from the gold part, the things contained in the coffin were really terrible.

In the human-shaped gap carved out of the coffin, it was not too big or too small, and it happened to fit a dead bone wearing armor.

This withered bone was burnt gray all over, taller and more burly than ordinary people.

Zhao Pu frowned and looked at it for a long time, "Why do I think it doesn't look like a human?"

Everyone nodded. People in Kaifeng Mansion saw many skeletons, but the bone in front of them was not like the usual ones, especially the head part. It was not like a human, but more like a beast.

"The nose is so protruding and the teeth are sharp. Does this look more like a dog's head?" Pang Yu frowned.

"It's a cat." Gongsun waved his hand, "It's not a dog."

"Such a big cat's head?" Bai Yutang subconsciously turned to look at Zhan Zhao's head, "And the teeth are too long."

Zhan Zhao also touched his chin subconsciously, it did look like a cat's head, but there's no reason for it to be so big, right?And the head seems to fit the neck very well, it doesn't look like it's spliced. Someone born with such a head?

"Daddy."

The fourth son stood on the back of the scissors and pointed into the coffin, "Look, there are so many tails!"

At this time, everyone turned their attention from the head of the dead body to the tail -- indeed, there were a lot of tails.

"Five!" The fourth son counted them one by one, stretched out a chubby little hand and asked Xiao Liang, "Really, Xiao Liangzi?"

"En!" Xiao Liang nodded.

"It's the same thing as the one on the coffin, right?" Bai Yutang pointed to the two warriors carved on the coffin, which also had the same animal face and multiple tails.

"It's just that one side has a cat's face and no tail, and the other side has a tail without a cat's face. The person lying in the coffin seems to be a collection of both sides!

"Does such a person exist?" Zhan Zhao frowned, "It looks more like a monster."

"Cat demon or lynx spirit?" Gongsun frowned, "Do monsters really exist?"

Everyone stared at the coffin for a long time, but they didn't see why, they just felt unlucky and panicked.

"Hey, old Bao, what are you doing with this thing? You're so scared, put the lid on!" Pang Ji urged Bao Zheng from the side, "We still have a lot of serious things to do."

Bao Zheng glanced at him, and everyone decided to cover the golden coffin first, and go back to study what happened.

"Meow~"

While everyone was covering the lid of the coffin, Wu Ming jumped out from nowhere and rushed to the side of the Wu Ming cat statue.

Looking at Wu Ming again, he looked like a brother he hadn't seen for a long time, with his tail hooked to that mud cat's tail, rubbing his head sideways, and "screaming, screaming non-stop."

"Oh, Wu Ming likes it very much!" The fourth son reached out and rubbed Wu Ming's head, "It's made of mud, it won't move."

"Brew~" Five lives are still rubbing against each other.

Zhan Zhao poked Bai Yutang, and asked in a low voice, "Do you realize that Wuming is screaming louder than before?"

Bai Yutang looked at him, pretending to be casual and asked, "What was it called in the past?"

"It's the name of an ordinary cat." Zhan Zhao explained.

Bai Yutang still shook his head, "What's the difference?"

"Tsk." Zhan Zhao was dissatisfied, "Don't you have a lot of research on cats! Normally it should be 'meow~', but Wu Ming is calling it 'Niao~' right now."

Bai Yutang slightly raised his eyebrows.

"It's obviously so much worse that you can't hear it?" Zhan Zhao saw that he still didn't understand, and was a little anxious.

Bai Yutang nodded, "It seems to be a little different, call again to hear?"

Zhan Zhao frowned, "Meow..." Then he felt that something was wrong, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Bai Yutang listening with a half-smile and an enjoyment.

Zhan Zhao reached out and pinched his waist, but the rat was so thin that he couldn't pinch the flesh through the belt.

Bai Yutang leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to pinch somewhere else?"

Zhan Zhao pinched his cheeks violently...

Dry bones and mud tires are nothing to look at, so everyone temporarily put the golden coffin and mud tires into an empty big room, and sent shadow guards to guard them strictly, and they are right under the eyes of everyone, so they are not afraid of losing them.

After another busy afternoon, Zhao Pu received a reply letter from Tubo Zanpu, and he was also very nervous. On the one hand, it was in Zhao Pu's hands, and on the other hand, it was Tubo's unilateral collusion with He Zheng to instigate rebellion. Said, not dominant.In the southwestern countries, who is not afraid of Zhao Pu?

So, Zanpu wrote back saying that those children were very healthy and safe, and he was willing to send them back in exchange for Dabin, and Zhao Pu readily agreed.

Bao Zheng also heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, there was good news. Those adults who lost consciousness after being kidnapped by He Zheng gradually recovered. Make a decision early in the morning.

At night, a strong wind suddenly blew up, and it didn't take long for Chengdu Mansion to start to snow heavily, and the weather also cooled down.

Hanging wind lanterns hung high in the government office, this is a method invented by Gongsun for the shadow guards, specially used to keep watch at night.Light up the surroundings, so that if someone sneaks in, there is nowhere to hide, so the shadow guards can concentrate on guarding in a warm place, without having to walk around in the snow.

The kitchen warmed up some ginger wine for everyone, Zhan Zhaoti hurriedly stepped on the snow to return to the house with a pot, closed the door, "Hiss...it's so cold."

Bai Yutang was leaning on the bed and looking at a scroll that had been painted, and beside him was Wu Ming who was licking his fur.

"Why is Wuming here?" Zhan Zhao was a little puzzled.

Bai Yutang raised his head, "Mr. Wu took Doudou home to clean up the house, they can move back to their original place now, and entrust me to take care of Wu Ming for a few days."

Zhan Zhao walked to the table with the wine, and asked casually, "Doudou likes you very much? Why is it specially raised for you? I thought he would give it to the fourth son."

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly, "It is said that Doudou asked the fourth son, 'Who in Kaifeng mansion likes cats the most?'" As he spoke, he pointed to himself, "The fourth son said it was me without thinking!"

Zhan Zhao laughed dryly.

"Then Mr. Wu asked Mr. Bao, 'Who in Kaifeng is the best at raising cats, and who is more free?'" Bai Yutang continued pointing to himself, "Master Bao and Grand Master Pang said it was me without even thinking about it, so..."

Bai Yutang reluctantly mentioned Wuming and shook, "This cat is with me for a few days."

Zhan Zhao poured a glass of wine and walked to the bed. Seeing Bai Yutang lying on the quilt without socks, he stretched out his hand and lifted the quilt to cover him, "Be careful of catching a cold in winter!"

Bai Yutang stretched out his hand to pull him down, and dragged him to his side, while Zhan Zhao was still holding the wine glass in his hand, "Don't make trouble, you have to wash the sheets after you spill the wine..."

Bai Yutang smiled slightly, took the wine glass in Zhan Zhao's hand and drank it down in one gulp, when he heard two beeps and someone knocked on the door.

"Come in." Zhan Zhao's door was unlocked, he agreed, and saw the door was pushed open.

The fourth son came in with his head in his arms, hugging a pillow.

"Little four?" Zhan Zhao and Wu Ming raised their faces together, and their movements were very unified.

The fourth son poked his head around and saw that Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were both lying on the bed, so he pouted and asked, "Isn't it convenient for you? Then I'll find Xiao Baozi to sleep."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, thinking that it was inconvenient for Gongsun and Zhao Pu?They were really interested.

Bai Yutang was puzzled, "Don't you live alone with Xiao Liang?"

The fourth son continued to pout, "It's cold today, there are not enough rooms, everyone is crowded together."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked behind him, and saw Xiao Liang and Rock-Scissors carrying the quilt.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's room is relatively large, and the bed is big enough, so they waved to them, "Come on."

The fourth son and Xiao Liang looked at each other, and ran in happily.

Zhan Zhao spread a thick quilt on the floor to make Rock-Scissors sleep warmer, and then let Xiao Liang and Xiao Si get into the bed.

"It's freezing to death outside." The fourth son got into the quilt and stretched out his arms to hold the five lives.

Zhan Zhao turned off the lights, and everyone wanted to go to bed early.

"It's so bright." Bai Yutang frowned and looked outside.

"It's already bright when it's snowing, and so many lights have been lit." Zhan Zhao also lay down, looking at the paper window in a blink of an eye.

Bai Yutang leaned his head closer, "Can't sleep?"

"It's okay." Zhan Zhao pointed to the window, the snowflakes fell and shattered the bright lights, feeling a little flickering, very special.

Bai Yutang looked down at the end of the bed, the fourth son was already fast asleep with Wuming on Xiao Liang's arm, and Xiao Liang was resting and adjusting his internal energy, it seemed that he was practicing internal strength.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other—as expected, the back waves of the Yangtze River push forward the front waves.

The snowy night was very quiet, and the two of them fell asleep peacefully like this.

Zhan Zhao fell into a drowsy sleep and started to have nightmares. For a while, he had a monster with a human face, and then dreamed that Zhan Hao appeared, and then some cat with five tails.He also knew that he might be dreaming, but he couldn't wake up, and the more he slept, the more tired he was, and he was feeling uncomfortable, and he felt someone pushing him gently.

Zhan Zhao stretched out his arms and hugged him, "Don't make trouble."

But the man was still pushing, and it seemed that someone was holding his leg.

Zhan Zhao was wondering, when he heard Bai Yutang's low voice calling, "Cat!"

"Ok?"

"Cat!"

Maybe it was because Bai Yutang was by his side that Zhan Zhao slept so soundly that he couldn't wake up.In the end he felt something was wrong, Bai Yutang was blowing into his ear, it was hot and a little ambiguous.

"Hiss!" Zhan Zhao covered his ears and quickly opened his eyes.

In front of him, Bai Yutang's eyes were open, bright, with a strange expression on his face.

Zhan Zhao felt a little sleepy, so he put his arms around Ceng, and decided to continue sleeping.

At this time, I felt that the little four who was holding his leg poked his calf twice, "Meow, don't sleep."

Zhan Zhao just woke up, lowered his head, and saw the fourth son lying on his lap, Xiao Liang was half of his body outside, hugging the stone and scissors lying beside the bed. Looking out the window.

"Why?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled.

Bai Yutang held his face in both hands and turned away, making him look towards the window!

Zhan Zhao then turned his head, glanced, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.

At this time, the snow may have stopped outside, and half of the lights in the yard are probably off, and the remaining half are neither bright nor dark.And in this dark night, a group of people stood in the yard.

Zhan Zhao couldn't believe it, because there was no sound at all.With so many people standing in the yard, it should still be snowing heavily outside, but they couldn't hear a sound, or even feel a breath, it was almost impossible!

Looking carefully at those figures, I saw that they were all holding long swords in their hands, as if they were practicing, and they looked particularly huge in armor. The most weird thing was that there were a few tails waving behind them.

The more Zhan Zhao looked at it, the wider his mouth opened, and he felt the tighter and tighter his little four was hugging his calf.What everyone thought of at this moment was the strange cat-man corpse in the golden coffin this morning.

Zhan Zhao took a deep breath, reached out to pat Bai Yutang's hand on his shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Yutang, that..."

"Ghost!" The fourth son got under the quilt again.

"Could it be a shadow?" Xiao Liang followed Zhao Pu's temperament, no matter if he saw it or not, as long as he didn't want to believe it, he said it didn't exist, so he got up to see what happened.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang naturally wouldn't let him go, they hurriedly pushed him back on the bed, stuffed him and the fourth son into the quilt, they got up together, and fled to the window.

He listened first, and at this moment there was a northwest wind blowing outside, but there was no other sound, not even the sound of waving a sword.

The two looked at each other silently, stretched out their hands to press the two paper windows with a tacit understanding, and gently opened a gap-looking into the yard, but saw nothing, only the heavy snow in the garden, and the ground was covered with thick A layer of white, not a single footprint.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned and pushed open the window...

At the same time, on the opposite side, next door... the windows of each room were pushed open, and at the same time someone poked their heads out to look.

Gongsun and Zhao Pu's room was opposite to them, they met each other, and Zhan Zhao pointed his eyes.

Both Zhao Pu and Gongsun nodded, indicating that they had indeed seen it!

"At this time, two snowballs moved on the roof.

Everyone looked up, and saw Ziying and Zheying, who were in charge of guards in the tent on the roof, stuck their heads out, seemingly puzzled, "Marshal, what's wrong with you?"

Zhan Zhao raised his face and asked, "Did you see anyone in the yard just now?"

Ziying and Zheying looked at each other in confusion, "Human?"

"No."

At this time, the curtain of the carriage parked in the corner of the yard was also lifted, and Qing Ying and Chi Ying poked their heads out, "We have been guarding, no one has come."

"Yeah, not even footprints." The gray shadow appeared from nowhere.

Zhan Zhao frowned, and asked Bai Yutang, "Could it be a mistake?"

"Impossible!" Bai Yutang shook his head, "One person's misreading may be due to drinking too much, and everyone's misreading it?"

"Meow meow!"

At this time, the fourth son poked his head out of the quilt, pointed to the window, and called Zhan Zhao, "There's more! It's out again!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang retreated, closed the window and took a few steps back... Sure enough, they saw the figure from just now swaying on the window, and a row of soldiers were practicing.

Zhao Pu and Gongsun on the opposite side also closed the window and took a look, and sure enough they could still see it.

"It's a shadow, cat." Bai Yutang went to the bedside and got some clothes to put on. At the same time, he noticed that Wu Ming was sleeping soundly, and the stone and scissors didn't respond much.

After a while, all the doors opened, and everyone came out of the room.Even Bao Zheng and Pang Ji woke up. Pang Ji slept in the carriage all the way, and couldn't sleep at night. Seeing the ghost, he got up from the bed and shook Bao Zheng violently. punched him.

Everyone walked into the yard and looked at the warehouse where the golden coffin was stored.

Gray Shadow and the others had been on the roof of the warehouse the whole time, and they didn't see anything unusual.

Zhan Zhao walked over and opened the door of the warehouse, everyone looked inside... unconsciously took a step back.

Even Bai Yutang, who had always been calm and stiff, couldn't help exclaiming, "Is this impossible?!"
