[Rat cat] Mirror City

Before Zhan Zhao opened his eyes, he had a vague thought that he and Bai Yutang just slept outside for the night.With the sky as the cover and the earth as the bed.

While thinking that he was really thankful that he didn't have a cold, Zhan Zhao opened his eyes and wanted to wake Bai Yutang up and go back to his room to sleep.

But when he opened his eyes, Zhan Zhao's next move was to quickly close his eyes, and then kept telling himself, this is a dream, this is a dream, this is a dream...

After countless cycles of self-hypnosis, Zhan Zhao finally found the courage for himself.But unfortunately, when he opened his eyes again, these courages seemed to ignore the air that was poured into the balloon, and finally the balloon exploded.But here, it was Zhan Zhao's hope that was blown up.

"Oh my god, I'm not dreaming." Zhan Zhao almost jumped up, who will tell him what's going on?He clearly remembered that he and Bai Yutang fell asleep leaning against the apricot tree last night, but now that he opened his eyes, the two original white apricot trees were gone, leaving only the one behind him.

Obviously this is someone's yard, Zhan Zhao tilted his head, thinking in disbelief, could it be that he sleepwalked and ran to someone else's house?What about Bai Yutang?

Zhan Zhao hurriedly turned his head, and was delighted to find that Bai Yutang was still leaning against the tree.Zhan Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay, he's not alone here.

Zhan Zhao hurriedly stepped forward to wake Bai Yutang up, but before he could put his hand on Bai Yutang's shoulder, he heard footsteps approaching.

What a pity, if someone saw this, he and Bai Yutang wouldn't be able to explain it clearly even if they had ten mouths.How do you explain that two people were drinking and admiring flowers at night, and broke into someone else's house on a whim?

Fortunately, Bai Yutang had already woken up when Zhan Zhao squatted down. When the visitor walked past the apricot tree, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang had already disappeared under the tree.

Suddenly, the girl walking by seemed to hear something.She stopped and turned to listen to the clump of trees behind the white apricot tree.It hasn't been cleaned up here for a while, and it looks a bit messy.

With that in mind, the girl walked towards the bushes.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, who were hiding behind the bushes, tried their best to keep quiet.The moment Bai Yutang woke up, they immediately hid behind the bushes.

It was already enough for the two of them to wake up in a strange place.The moment they heard footsteps, the two of them instinctively hid.

Originally, this situation was not difficult to explain, but now hiding behind the bushes, if someone discovered it, it would be completely unexplainable.

At first, Zhan Zhao was only worried that he and Bai Yutang would be discovered, but when Zhan Zhao saw the visitor dressed as a maid in a skirt, Zhan Zhao felt that his whole world was torn apart.

Zhan Zhao really wanted to raise his head and ask the sky, oh my god, he just slept outside with Bai Yutang all night, what happened?At the same time, Zhan Zhao felt that Bai Yutang behind him was also stiff, but he soon relaxed.

"What's the matter?" Because the place where the two of them hid was not very spacious, Zhan Zhao could only raise his head in an attempt to see Bai Yutang's expression.

Bai Yutang shook his head, lightly covered Zhan Zhao's eyes, and pulled him a little more towards him.

The maid obviously didn't notice that there were two men hiding about ten feet away from her, she just approached their hiding place step by step.

Just when Zhan Zhaoxin raised his throat, Bai Yutang suddenly pulled Zhan Zhao out.Zhan Zhao hastily dragged Bai Yutang back, and stopped him in a low voice, "Yutang, don't go out!" If you go out at this time, won't you be caught?Isn't this courting death?

But Bai Yutang pulled him back confidently, and said comfortingly, "Trust me."

believe him?What do you believe in Bai Yutang?Before Zhan Zhao fully understood what was going on, Bai Yutang had already pulled him out of the bushes.The sound of clothes brushing against the bushes startled all three present.

Zhan Zhao tensed up all of a sudden, but was still taken outside by Bai Yutang.After coming out, Zhan Zhao didn't even have time to catch his breath, so he wanted to apologize to the maid immediately.Whether she wears strange clothes or not, I apologize in advance!

"I'm sorry the two of us really didn't mean it..." Zhan Zhao really apologized to the maid immediately, bowing at ninety degrees.

Standing behind Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang was amazed at Zhan Zhao's bewildered and apologetic appearance.It turns out that Zhan Xiaomao is the one who uses the big trick of bowing at ninety degrees when he thinks that he has done something wrong...

Seeing that Zhan Zhao was about to bow several times, Bai Yutang hurriedly stopped him, "Cat, stop bowing..." Seeing Zhan Zhao's expression of being scolded, Bai Yutang really couldn't bear it, "She sees Not ours."

"But...what?" Zhan Zhao originally wanted to say that the apology would appear insincere if he didn't do this, but he was completely defeated by Bai Yutang's words.Zhan Zhao pointed at the woman in front of him, his volume suddenly increased because of shock.

And the woman Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were talking about was really like what Bai Yutang said they didn't notice at all, even if Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were standing next to her.

She just looked suspiciously at the place where Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang came out, because that's where the sound came from, but she didn't find anything inside.

The maid withdrew her hand to push away the bushes, and muttered, "The wind blows...it scared me to death." At this moment, the sound of firecrackers suddenly came from the front door.

The maid immediately turned around and saw the tray she put aside, and then she remembered her task, "Oh, why are you wasting time here, I have to hurry to dress up the lady."

The maid muttered and patted herself on the head, then picked up the tray and walked away, leaving Zhan Zhao who was in a mess and Zhan Zhao who was calm as usual.

Zhan Zhao blinked in disbelief, finally accepting the fact that the woman couldn't see him.Bai Yutang, who had already had a similar experience once, had already thought about it a few more times than Zhan Zhao, "We should have encountered the same situation as I did last time."

Zhan Zhao immediately raised his eyebrows.What Bai Yutang was talking about was naturally seeing the life of "Zhan Zhao" in a dream through the ancient mirror, but this was also because of the connection between the two, and through the ancient mirror as a medium.If this is the case, then what is the medium through which the two of them are here now?

But the two quickly jumped out of this thinking.Now that we've come here, we'll wait until the source is over before we think about it.

"Since we're here, it's a good fortune." Understanding his current situation, Zhan Zhao focused on this place, "Since we're here, maybe Gongsun and Chen Mu are also here."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang have an experienced person here. If Gongsun and Chen Mu also come here...then what they should do now is to meet up as soon as possible.

After making up his mind, Zhan Zhao suddenly took Bai Yutang's hand, "I'm a novice, Yutang, please take care of me." Zhan Zhao lowered his voice, expressing his confusion about this place and the dialogue Yutang's expectation.

Bai Yutang couldn't laugh or cry, really thought he didn't know that this cat was actually audacious?However, Bai Yutang is still looking forward to leading Zhan Zhao, "I will work hard."

With Bai Yutang's permission, Zhan Zhao smiled excitedly.The two discussed it and finally decided to go in the opposite direction from the maid.The place where the sound came from was very lively. If Gongsun and Chen Mu were there, they would not rush towards the crowd.

Relying on the fact that no one else could see the two of them, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao boldly walked in the courtyard.But when they were about to pass through the Moon Gate, they were suddenly stopped by an invisible barrier.

Zhan Zhao leaned back all of a sudden, Bai Yutang hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Zhan Zhao, and frowned at Yuemen.

Zhan Zhao also reacted immediately, looking at Bai Yutang in surprise, and then at the moon gate.Bai Yutang could clearly see curiosity and exploration in Zhan Zhao's eyes.

Zhan Zhao raised his hand to reach the middle of the moon gate, and felt a very subtle feeling when he stuck the barrier.It felt as soft as jelly on one hand, it wasn't hard, but it effectively blocked the two people's footsteps.

"What's going on here?" Zhan Zhao, who experienced it for the first time, was full of curiosity about everything here, and Bai Yutang was the only person who could answer his questions.

"Don't let us pass." Bai Yutang gave Zhan Zhao an answer that didn't count as an answer, "We are in a dream, and now is not the time to go out."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang tried to walk in other ways besides the direction the maid walked in just now, but no matter whether it was the porch or the moon gate, every exit was also covered with a layer of barriers, trapping the two of them. In situ.

"This situation... is basically forcing us to follow that maid." After going around in circles for a few times, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, and finally decided to follow this only path.

The pace of the two of them was very fast, and they caught up with the maid who had hurried away before.The farther you go, the more the scenery in front of you is covered in red.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao finally understood that this family was holding a wedding, and the young lady that the maid said just now should be today's bride.This family is going to marry their daughter.

On the one hand, both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were infected by the family's joy, but on the other hand, they didn't understand why they came to this place.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang followed the maid closely.Soon, the maid turned and turned to the right, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also speeded up and followed her to turn to the right.

But this time, when the maid passed through the moon gate, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw the air under the moon gate create a circle of ripples that could be discerned with the naked eye, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang immediately stopped in their tracks.

They can't go in this direction either.So where exactly can they go?Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, and finally walked towards the gate.

Walking to the front, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw that the gate was full of people.Two long firecrackers hang down from both sides of the eaves.In the distance, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang saw someone walking slowly on a horse.

When the two servants at the door saw the person coming, they walked to both sides of the door in unison and lit firecrackers.The crowd gradually boiled with the sound of firecrackers.

Zhan Zhao suddenly said to Bai Yutang, "Yutang, this groom is married."

Marriage?This question only swirled in Bai Yutang's mind, and then Bai Yutang understood.But what Bai Yutang cared about was the horse and the man in the bright red groom's suit.

"Cat..." Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao, "Is that person right now Chen Mu?"

"Chen Mu..." Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang walked a little further, so they could clearly see the face of the man on the horse. Unexpectedly, it was really Chen Mu.

It's just that Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang immediately realized that the man's attire, long hair, and happy attire, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't be Chen Mu who was drinking with them on the stone platform last night.

Knowing that it was impossible for the other party to see them, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang subconsciously stepped back a little to avoid being seen by the other party.

But Zhan Zhao and Bian Yutang's worries were obviously in vain.Because the bridegroom officer rode his horse to the gate, he turned over and got off the horse neatly.

A middle-aged man named Xu Ke came out of the hall.He looked gratified and happy, but he couldn't hide his struggle.The bridegroom officer walked up to the man and bowed, "Chen Mu pays homage to his father-in-law."

Is this person really called Chen Mu?Zhan Zhao picked out his ears, and really suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.But looking at Bai Yutang's expression, Zhan Zhao knew that he had heard correctly.

"Mu'er, it's good to be here, it's good to be here." Xu Ke patted Chen Mu's shoulder, not knowing where to start.In the end, he led Chen Mu into the lobby, and the servants had already retreated, allowing the two to talk.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao walked into the lobby loudly relying on the fact that no one else could see them, and stood aside watching them.Well, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang kept looking at Chen Mu.

After entering the lobby, Xu Ke had already taken his seat, while Chen Mu stood in the center of the lobby with his hands behind his back, with a peaceful expression, and no joy could be seen in his heart.

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, glanced suspiciously at Chen Mu and Xu Ke, and asked in bewilderment, "This atmosphere doesn't look like the atmosphere between father-in-law and son-in-law at all. It's so dignified."

"Hush." ​​Bai Yutang signaled Zhan Zhao not to speak, and Xu Ke looked like he was about to speak.

Sure enough, Xu Ke took a sip of tea and sighed helplessly, "Mu'er, I have always regarded you as my son-in-law for so many years. This time, I really feel sorry for you as a father."

"Father-in-law is serious!" Chen Mu replied quickly, sounding a bit at a loss, completely unaware of his father-in-law's sudden apology.

Xu Ke raised his hand to signal Chen Mu not to speak, but to listen to himself. "Mu'er, you have been smart since you were young. Your father entrusted you to me, and I have finally lived up to him. I am relieved to entrust this family to you. It's just Shuyan... Shuyan's body is afraid..."

At this point, Section Chief Xu sighed, took Chen Mu's hand and patted it, and said emphatically, "From now on, Shuyan will be taken care of by you."

"Father, Shuyan is my wife, this is what I should do." Chen Mu replied gently, every word and sentence was so appropriate, without any overstepping.

Xu Ke's words were nothing to Xu Ke's ears, but Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang frowned. Why, Chen Mu looked a little strange.

"If you can think this way, then it's good, that's good." Xu Ke let go of the big stone in his heart under Chen Mu's words, "There is still some time before the auspicious time, and Shuyan is still preparing. You are also Rest in the yard for a while."

He always felt sorry for Chen Mu. Originally, Chen Mu wanted to accept everyone's congratulations with him, but Xu Ke didn't want his son-in-law to suffer such a boring thing again, so he simply let him spend some time alone.

Chen Mu thanked him gratefully, and watched Xu Ke walk out of the lobby.When Xu Ke walked away, Chen Mu turned and walked towards the backyard.Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao exchanged glances, and followed silently.

They walked for a while, and when they reached the gazebo in the courtyard, Chen Mu suddenly stopped and looked straight ahead.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang followed his line of sight. Under the moon gate, a girl stood tall and graceful, looking in their direction for a long time.
