[Rat cat] Mirror City

Gongsun Ce felt that since coming to Kaifeng, his patience has obviously improved.Because he not only listened to Bao Zheng's words and waited for him and Zhan Zhao to come back in the room, but also waited for him for so long.

He is waiting here quietly because according to his usual experience, Bao Zheng will come back soon, so Bao Zheng has no reason to stop him from letting him go out, but there are really policies and countermeasures, Bao Zheng He didn't come back for a long time.

And after he went like this, he really dragged the time until the evening.Now not only Gongsun Ce had gone berserk, even Bai Yutang was worried, but they couldn't find Zhan Zhao and Bao Zheng in the house.

Just when their worries were about to break through the limit, Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao came back. "Why are you only here now?" Gongsun Ce and Bai Yutang said in unison, and went up to meet him.

Then Gongsun Ce smelled the faint smell of alcohol on Bao Zheng's body, and he couldn't help but pull Bao Zheng, "What's the matter? Didn't you ask a question? Why is there alcohol smell on you? Where are you taking Zhan Zhao?" gone?"

"Calm down, calm down." Bao Zheng quickly grabbed Gongsun Ce's hand, "I just had a friendly discussion with Mr. Village Chief, and then Mr. Village Chief met me late, so we had a good exchange."

truth?Putting aside the battle between Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng, Bai Yutang looked Zhan Zhao up and down, making sure if he smelled of alcohol.

"I didn't drink." Why couldn't see Bai Yutang's thoughts, Zhan Zhao explained to him, "Brother Bao and I asked the village chief, and the village chief didn't know that something was lost, but was just afraid, so he asked right away. Then Brother Bao said that he would not tell about this matter, and the village chief took us to drink when he was happy..."

"Are you sure that Bao Zheng didn't want to delay time by drinking? Are you determined not to let Gongsun Ce go so early?" Bai Yutang couldn't see the complacency on Bao Zheng's face now.

Zhan Zhao handed the painting book to Bai Yutang with a helpless face of "Don't expose it". This action finally caught the attention of Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng, and the two of them also surrounded him.

"I drew those people according to the village chief's description, and they should be more similar." With these pictures as a reference, they can also help them find those people.

"These people are relatively unfamiliar. I'll ask my friends to help me pay attention." Gongsun Ce first proposed, and Bao Zheng and Bai Yutang also decided to do the same.

Leaving aside this somewhat distant task, the goal of the four of them was immediately set back to the most feasible thing at present. "Since it's all over, let's hurry up the mountain." Gongsun Ce pulled Zhan Zhao and began to count the equipment.

"I can drag it to this point, I feel that I am already very good." Bao Zheng looked at Gongsun Ce's busy back, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.Bai Yutang was also quite moved, and patted Bao Zheng's shoulder to express his spiritual support. Fortunately, Zhan Xiaomao was not as enthusiastic as Gongsun.

The four of them left the village as fast as they could. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang led Gongsun and Bao Zheng to the mountains. According to the signs of the three big trees that they wrote down during the day, the four of them quickly found the right intersection.

When pushing through the weeds and entering the path, Zhan Zhao showed Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng the grass that led the way that he found during the day with a flashlight. Gongsun Ce took a small part and planned to take it back to show his friends who study plants.

This road is not as difficult as imagined. With the lights on, follow the leading grass and walk in. The more you walk, the more you will find that the whole road is getting wider and wider.

The road finally brought the four people to an open space, and the four finally sat down on a big rock to catch their breath. "This place is probably on the mountainside, right?" Bao Zheng checked the height below with his eyes, and roughly determined the positions of the four people.

"It seems that there is no way." Zhan Zhao looked around, this place seemed to be the key point, and there was no way to continue going up.

At this time, Gongsun Ce suddenly noticed something, "I remember that the tomb seems to be designed in a descending style, right? Extending down from the top of the mountain, is it possible that the location of the last tomb is here?"

Gongsun Ce's proposal is really very possible. "Look around here." As soon as Bai Yutang suggested, the four of them dispersed to look for possible entrances.

Zhan Zhao searched this area seriously, but there was no result.After thinking about it, Zhan Zhao was still a little depressed, and suddenly discovered that there was a pool not far away, and the water in it was extremely clear.

Zhan Zhao walked to the edge of the pool, stretched out his hand to stir in the water, enjoying the coolness of the night breeze.Hearing Bai Yutang calling him suddenly, Zhan Zhao stood up abruptly, but his eyes became dark because of squatting for too long.

The house leak happened to be raining all night, and the ground by the pool was full of stones. Zhan Zhao just staggered, and ended up stepping on a stone.Zhan Zhao only felt that his feet were empty, and his whole body fell backwards. Before he could utter an exclamation, Zhan Zhao fell into the water and kept sinking.

When Zhan Zhao fell into the water, Bai Yutang felt his heart stopped completely.The body was completely out of his control, and he rushed to the edge of the pool with the fastest speed, and jumped into it.

Bai Yutang struggled to paddle his arms in the water, and finally saw Zhan Zhao's sinking figure. Zhan Zhao had already closed his eyes and was swallowed by the current.

This cat can't swim.Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao into his arms, and was thinking about going upstream, but found that something seemed to be pulling him under his feet.

Worried about Zhan Zhao's situation, Bai Yutang tried hard to break free, but found that the pulling force below became more and more obvious, and even directly pulled the two of them down. The only thing Bai Yutang could do was to firmly protect Zhan Zhao in the arms.Could it be that he and Zhan Zhao are going to die together in this place?This mountain is really the burial place of Zhan Showa and Bai Yutang.

Holding his breath for a long time also made Bai Yutang more painful. When he found that the pulling force under his feet had disappeared, Bai Yutang hugged Zhan Zhao tightly and rowed desperately towards the water.

Climbing up to the shore with all his strength, Bai Yutang patted Zhan Zhao's face worriedly, but Zhan Zhao didn't respond anyway.Bai Yutang lifted Zhan Zhao's body and breathed for him, Zhan Zhao coughed in pain.

"It's okay, it's okay, cough up the water." Imagining how painful Zhan Zhao was, Bai Yutang patted Zhan Zhao's back lightly.

Zhan Zhao grabbed Bai Yutang's arm in pain, fresh air rushed into his lungs, and Zhan Zhao felt himself alive.Lying powerlessly in Bai Yutang's arms, Zhan Zhao heaved a sigh of relief, "Ah, I almost died."

"You cat..." Hearing what Zhan Zhao said pretending to be relaxed, Bai Yutang was really angry, but he couldn't bear to get angry at Zhan Zhao, "Obviously I don't know what to do, but I'm always going to be like a dog." run."

"I just want to relax, who knows I'll stumble suddenly..." I've never seen Bai Yutang in such a mess before, Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand to brush away the hair sticking to the corners of Bai Yutang's eyes, "Why did you come down?"

"Come down and save the cat." Bai Yutang wiped off the water from his face, "Try to see if you can stand up."

After soaking in the water for a while, Zhan Zhao's legs lost all strength, and he stood up with Bai Yutang's hand, only then did Zhan Zhao realize that they were not in the original place.

"I was pulled over when I went into the water to pull you. The bottom of the pool should be connected to this place." Bai Yutang also began to look at the cave they were in. It also shows that there are indeed signs.”

"Too bad." Zhan Zhao slapped his head, "You and I found this place, but how did Gongsun and Brother Bao come here?" Thinking this way, Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang almost couldn't breathe, "Isn't it because you want me to swim back and bring them here?"

"But you are the only one here who can swim..." Zhan Zhao felt guilty, "And Gongsun and Brother Bao will worry about us."

"..." Bai Yutang gave up and continued arguing with Zhan Zhao. Anyway, in the end, he would definitely lose to Zhan Zhao, so why bother to struggle in vain.Just as he was thinking this, the sound of water suddenly came from his feet, and then the voice of people.

"Hey... I'm worried that the two of you are here, can you give us a hand?" In the pool, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were lying on the edge of the pool and waving to them.Although both of them can swim, it took a lot of energy for them to swim here.

Seeing the two people appear, Zhan Zhao finally felt relieved, "Gongsun, Brother Bao, how did you find this place?" Bai Yutang pulled Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce out before Zhan Zhao reached out.

It seems to have disturbed them.Bao Zheng has always been a sensible person, he will suffer if he destroys the world of two people, "I think you can swim, but you and Zhan Zhao have not come out, Gongsun and I started to worry, and ended up being brought here by the current , almost suffocated to death. But you are fine."

"Ah." Zhan Zhao sneezed suddenly, and Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao worriedly, "Have a cold?" He really wanted to put some clothes on Zhan Zhao, but he was soaked too.

"No." Zhan Zhao didn't feel any discomfort, it was just a sudden shiver just now, Zhan Zhao felt a little cold until now.

But Gongsun Ce noticed Zhan Zhao's strangeness. To be precise, he himself shivered, "Do you two think it's a bit cold here?" Zhan Zhao nodded in agreement. He thought it was his own illusion, because Bai Yutang There was no reaction.Seeing Bai Yutang and Bao Zheng's slow and sluggish reactions, Gongsun Ce knew it was useless to ask them.

"It's a good thing to be cold." Bai Yutang immediately changed his angle, "The inside of the third tomb is full of ice, and this place is probably connected to that."

As soon as this was mentioned, the four of them were shaken. Regardless of the fact that their bodies were soaked, the four of them walked in again. On the way, they found traces that someone had been here.

"It's here." Although the passage is a bit long, this discovery is enough for them to persevere. There is a stone door at the end of the passage. After pressing the switch, the door opens, and the threatening cold air blows in.

When a piece of white snow came into view, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang felt that complicated feeling again, while Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng were very curious about the tomb they saw for the first time.

"Gongsun, you and Bao Zheng can just go in. Zhan Zhao and I are waiting for you outside, it's a bit cold inside." After greeting Gongsun and the others, Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao outside until he felt that the cold was not so pressing. Only let go.

"Are you also afraid of the cold?" Zhan Zhao teased Bai Yutang with a smile.

Bai Yutang actually answered Zhan Zhao seriously, "I just read it yesterday, you don't have to be so diligent in sweeping the grave." It wasn't so funny, but Bai Yutang's expression was so serious, which instantly made Zhan Zhao laugh.

Bai Yutang also laughed, "If you are not used to it, don't force yourself. After all, the purpose of our coming here is to find this way." What kind of outbreak it was, was completely different from what he usually did.

"I really admire that you can make me laugh in such a serious way. I really need to take it easy." After relaxing a lot, Zhan Zhao cheered up, "Don't be bored here, let's go to the pool, at least in the water. I won't be bored."

Following Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang paid attention to Zhan Zhao's feet, "Don't fall this time, I won't jump to save you if you fall again."

"Don't think of me so stupidly, it was just carelessness just now, besides, if you hadn't suddenly called me behind me, would I accidentally trip over?" Zhan Zhao complained intentionally.

"Isn't it because a certain cat was lazy by the water and didn't even know how to swim... How about I teach you how to swim next time." Bai Yutang was still making plans for swimming lessons in his mind.

Just by hearing Bai Yutang's voice, he knew that Bai Yutang was serious. Zhan Zhao quickly turned around, "Stop mocking me, besides, I don't need to learn..."

In the end, Zhan Zhao almost fell because he didn't look at the road.When being held back by Bai Yutang again, Zhan Zhao had to start to reflect, why did he make so many silly mistakes after meeting Bai Yutang?

Bai Yutang glanced at Zhan Zhao's feet, and said coolly, "Look, again."

No longer able to defend himself, Zhan Zhao sighed and told himself to divert his attention, then he found that there seemed to be lines on the wall he was supporting.

"Yutang, take a look here." Zhan Zhao used his hands to push away the moss and dirt on the wall, and Bai Yutang cooperated with Zhan Zhao to illuminate him.

After removing the moss on the wall, Zhan Zhao saw a piece of writing left on the wall, "it was left by the four mice." Zhan Zhao did not miss the trembling of Bai Yutang who was close to him.

Caressing the words on the wall, Zhan Zhao read them out one by one, "15 years ago, four people and I built this tomb to bury my younger brother Jinmaoshu here, now An Zhanzhao enters the cave, and the two live together and die together in the same cave Promise. We were supposed to close the Dragon-Breaking Stone to end everything, but in the end we couldn’t do anything because the four of us were reluctant. This is where the fifth younger brother and Zhan Zhao return, and outsiders should not disturb. We will keep the secret to ourselves and never Excuse me. I hope that future generations will stay here if they stray into this place by mistake."

"They also wanted to give the two of them a peace, so they left this line." Bai Yutang looked at the end of this line, and the familiar name made his eyes warm.

"Lu Fang", "Han Zhang", "Xu Qing", "Jiang Ping", how wonderful, no matter in the previous life or now, they are all by my side, going around, the connection between them has long been inseparable .

It wasn't until Bai Yutang withdrew from his emotions that Zhan Zhao pressed Bai Yutang's shoulders, and naturally talked to him about the broken dragon stone.Bai Yutang held Zhan Zhao's hand gratefully, "The Dragon-Breaking Stone... Judging from the words they left behind, once the Dragon-Breaking Stone is put down, it will completely block the tomb from the road outside."

"Some tombs do have such a design. The switch for the Broken Dragon Stone should be near here." Zhan Zhao continued to grope on the wall, and sure enough, he found a part of raised moss next to this section.

After removing the moss, the switch of the Dragon-Breaking Stone appeared in front of his eyes. Finally, Zhan Zhao heaved a sigh of relief and touched the switch lightly, "You can't touch this thing. If you touch it, we'll have to fight with Gongsunbao." Brother, they are separated in two different worlds."

"Just so, let the two of them live in a two-person world." Bai Yutang said casually, Zhan Zhao imagined this scene, and felt particularly happy for some reason.

After getting serious, Zhan Zhao was driven crazy by the sticky feeling of moss on his hands, and was about to go to the pool to wash his hands, when Zhan Zhao suddenly found a strange black mark on his hands.

The more he looked at it, the more strange it became, Zhan Zhao leaned closer to his palm and sniffed it. "Cat, what's the matter?" Seeing Zhan Zhao's movements, Bai Yutang's eyelids twitched.Hearing Zhan Zhao's question, Bai Yutang also leaned over to smell it.

"This is... gunpowder?" Bai Yutang thought his sense of smell should be fine, but was gunpowder buried in this cave?Somehow, this originally innocuous tomb suddenly became dangerous.

"What gunpowder?" Just in time, Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng also came out of the tomb.More precisely, because of Gongsun Ce's physical condition, Bao Zheng pulled Gongsun Ce out even if Gongsun Ce was unwilling in every possible way, and then they heard Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang discussing gunpowder.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang told Gongsun Ce and Bao Zheng exactly what happened just now.After a while, Gongsun Ce said, "In addition to the Broken Dragon Stone, they probably plan to use gunpowder to completely seal this road."

Gongsun gave this judgment calmly, which actually brought the atmosphere of the four of them down to a freezing point.

After a long while, Bao Zheng suggested, "Excuse me, should we go back first... It's ice and fire, life is so rich."

Bao Zheng's proposal won the hearts of the people, and the four jumped into the pool without any delay. Of course, Zhan Zhao hung on Bai Yutang's body to get out.
