Half River Autumn Moon and River Spring [Rat and Cat]

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, and thought: This mouse said that picking up a knife is as easy as pulling a vegetable in his own house, and he didn't even think about the origin of that monster knife. Does that mean he can get it if he wants it?

But he still took a sip of his wine and asked leisurely, "What do you want that knife for?"

Bai Yutang said with a calm expression, "Of course I will use it."

Zhan Zhao almost spit out his wine, he coughed twice, looked at Bai Yutang and said, "Someone Zhan remembers that Fifth Master Bai has always had a high vision, didn't he say that ordinary utensils are not worthy of being with him?"

Bai Yutang was taken aback, and asked, "Who said that?"

Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes and smiled: "Those are the confidante of Fifth Master."

As a result, as soon as Zhan Zhao finished speaking, Bai Yutang laughed instead, and it was so pretty.

Zhan Zhao saw that the mouse laughed so wickedly, he didn't understand where he said something wrong, so he asked in puzzlement, "Mice, what are you laughing at?"

Bai Yutang leisurely took a sip of his wine, and said unhurriedly: "Mao'er, what you said is really interesting."

"What flavor?"

Bai Yutang remained silent, picked up his chopsticks and circled around all the dishes, and then circled around again, finally picked up a vinegared peanut, put it in his mouth and chewed it.

Vinegar peanuts...

Zhan Zhao was speechless.

After chewing enough peanuts, Bai Yutang said, "I want that knife so that I can compete with your Juque."

Zhan Zhao raised his head, blinked and said, "Yutang, I thought you didn't care about that anymore."

Bai Yutang nodded: "Well, I don't care about what happened back then."

"That……"

"Back then we, the Five Rats, made a big fuss in Tokyo, but we were defeated one by one by your Yumao Zhanzhao's sword, and made you a good name. Although the time has passed, the Five Rats and Yumao have turned their battles into jade... But, I have never I think it's my Bai Yutang's skills that are inferior to others, but I don't have the right weapon to fight with your magic weapon Juque."

Back then, Zhan Zhao had just been given the name "Royal Cat". Originally, it was just Emperor Zhao Zhen's whim, but this name offended the five owners of the Sky Island named after the Five Rats. It was the Bai Yutang at that time, a young man with great ambition, high-spirited, everyone in the rivers and lakes knew who did not know, but was suppressed by a cat for no reason, the young and frivolous Bai Yutang naturally refused to accept, and several brothers on the island At the same time, they stole the Binglinyu Ruyi of the Eight Sage Kings, the Qizuanyue Pearl of the Empress Dowager Liu, and the Shangfang Sword bestowed by the Kaifeng Mansion, causing an uproar in the entire capital. , I don't know what the Five Rats mean. At that time, no one thought that the Five Rats acted so boldly just to attract the humble gentleman Zhan Zhao to show up to compete with him.

In the end, Zhan Zhao really took up the challenge, and engaged in a wheel battle with the five mice. The ancient sword Jujue brilliance shined, and Zhan Zhao won four mice in a row. The famous Chinchilla is so young, from a distance, it looks like a heavenly man descending from the earth, wearing a snow suit and a clear sword.

Zhan Zhao thought at the time, such a good skin grows on a man, it is really a disaster.

Naturally, Bai Yutang did not expect that Zhan Zhao, who had a reputation throughout the Song Dynasty, would look to be the same age as himself. Moreover, he looked so elegant and gentle, like a piece of uncarved jade, free from the taint of the world and officialdom.

At that moment, the two seemed to have a feeling of hating each other and cherishing each other!

And this kind of feeling became more and more intense after the two fought each other. After hundreds of rounds, both of them felt hearty and indescribably comfortable. They thought they had met a truly worthy opponent, but Ju Que After all, it is an ancient artifact. Although the Qing sword in Bai Yutang's hand is also a rare and good sword, it is by no means comparable to the Juque in Zhan Zhao's hand. When he turned back to resist Zhan Zhao's sweeping sword, the Qing sword actually broke in response. !

Zhan Zhao also cut Bai Yutang's left shoulder with his sword because he was too late to stop...

After this sensational battle in the capital, Zhan Zhao and the Five Rats became close friends, but he was always brooding over the fact that he had accidentally hurt Bai Yutang. After this battle, Bai Yutang's temper restrained a lot. No matter how strong and victorious he was, he felt a little indifferent to the world.

It's just that Bai Yutang never used any weapons after this battle, and then those women who admired Bai Yutang in the Jianghu said: How can those vulgar weapons be in the eyes of the fifth master, they are worthy of the fifth master body!

In fact, Bai Yutang just couldn't find a weapon that could compete with Zhan Zhao's Juque, so he was too lazy to get one.Until he was on his way to Kaifeng Mansion to find Zhan Zhao, when he heard the news that the peerless demon sword was about to be born.

"So you want that demon sword?"

Bai Yutang nodded.

"But, why is it a sword?" Zhan Zhao said seriously, "Zhan has always thought that brother Bai's peerless appearance is more suitable for using a sword."

Bai Yutang gave Zhan Zhao a weak look.

Zhan Zhao smiled again like a cat stealing fish.

Bai Yutang thought for a while and said, "Because of the sword."

Zhan Zhao didn't understand, "Huh?" He looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang curled his lips, "Swords, swords, knives are always in front of swords." After saying that, he glanced at the Juque sword that Zhan Zhao never left.

Zhan Zhao turned his head to look at the sky, then nodded and said, "The weather is fine today."

Holding the wine bowl, Bai Yutang looked out of the window following Zhan Zhao's gaze, took a sip of the wine so gracefully, and said, "Cat, your ability to change the subject is still so weak."

Zhan Zhao turned his head, looked at Bai Yutang, sighed, and said helplessly, "Yutang, how much do you know about that demon sword?"

Bai Yutang said: "Not very detailed, I only know that this demon sword is also a treasure left over from ancient times, but it has a seal on it, so ordinary people can't find it, but it will be born every 1000 years to find its owner, and every time it will cause trouble. There was an uproar."

Zhan Zhao nodded: "Well, I've also heard that this knife is called 'Weeping Snow Blade', and it is a rare treasure once in a thousand years, but since it is named as a demon knife, it must have its evil ways , Yutang, if you really have to find this knife, I think it's better to ask someone first."

Bai Yutang laughed: "Mao'er, we're thinking of getting together again."

Zhan Zhao rubbed his chin, and suddenly said to himself: "I'm considering whether to pack him up and go on the road together. Although he has no strength to restrain a chicken, his brain is still very bright!"

Bai Yutang nodded: "Good idea, it's equivalent to bringing a living dictionary, a compass... Mao'er, why don't you go and discuss it with Mr. Bao? You can also ask him for a month's leave..."

"Then what are you waiting for, go to Kaifeng mansion now!"

"Okay, let's compete this time to see who can reach Kaifeng Mansion first!"

"Okay!" After saying that, Zhan Zhao flipped over and went down Deyue Tower. Bai Yutang was stunned, and was about to catch up, but he heard Zhan Zhao shout without turning his head, "Fifth Master, little brother Waiting for the cash register behind you!"

When Bai Yutang turned his head around, there was no sign of the younger brother, he gritted his teeth: Good you black-hearted cat!See if I don't catch up with you and peel off your cat's skin!After throwing an ingot of silver on the table, Bai Yutang chased after Zhan Zhao's figure!

……

Someone who was reading in the study of Kaifeng Mansion suddenly sneezed heavily. He looked out of the window and thought: Strange, the sun is so bright, why do I feel chills all over my body?

But speaking of the sun, he looked back at the stack of books on the bookshelf...

It seems that it is time to take the book out to dry in the sun. It has been rainy and cloudy for the past few days, and the book smells musty!

So, he started to walk out with a pile of books in his arms. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a red and a white figure falling in front of him in an instant. Come on.

"Mice, you lost, you sleep in the inner bed at night!"

"Smelly cat, you are clearly the one who tricked me!"

"You didn't say you can't cheat!"

"Zhan Zhao! Thanks to you, you are still a gentleman admired by everyone in the world!"

"I can't get up against a certain mouse who is a gentleman."

……

"cough……"

The cat and the mouse who were arguing suddenly turned their heads and looked at the person who interrupted them with a light cough.

The person who came hurriedly said: "No, no... I want to say, the two of you should make way for me to go out first, and then you can continue."

After saying this, the cat and the mouse felt awkward, Zhan Zhao hastily stretched out his hand to take the stack of books from the man, and said with a smile, "Mr. Gongsun, where are you going with these books?"

At this time, Gongsun Ce, the head of the Kaifeng Mansion who was still standing at the door dressed as a Confucian scholar, had no choice but to glance at Zhan Zhao, then at Bai Yutang, and sighed, "Both of you, do you need me?"

Bai Yutang smiled: "Sir, you are really smart."

Gongsun Ce nodded, and then said expressionlessly, "Fifth Lord just say it straight, and Gongsun Ding should know everything without saying anything."

"Well, it's actually like this," Zhan Zhao mentioned while holding the book, looking at Gongsun Ce and said, "Do you know a knife called 'Weeping Snow Blade'?"

Gongsun said thoughtfully: "Weeping Snow Blade? I remember that this is a weapon handed down from ancient times. It is full of legends. The students have indeed heard of it."

Zhan Zhao nudged Bai Yutang with his elbow, then winked at him: Look, look, sir, if you heard something, it must be simple and easy to understand!

Bai Yutang looked back at Zhan Zhao: Mao'er, why do you think Mr. Gongsun is so powerful and knows everything!

Zhan Zhao nodded: I said he was easy to use!

"It's just..." Gongsun Ce smiled slightly.

Zhan Zhao said, "Just what?"

Gongsun Ce sighed with great regret: "I see that the sun is good now, and I want to take all these books out to dry in the sun. It has been raining for the past few days, and the books have a musty smell."

Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "What's the problem? Let's help Mr. move the books out!" After saying that, he carried the books and planned to go out.

Bai Yutang also continued, "Let's do this little thing for my husband."

Gongsun smiled with extreme embarrassment, and said, "Then I would like to thank Guard Zhan and Fifth Master Bai for their help!"

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

"Ah, there are quite a lot of books in this room, and I won't be able to move them all in a while. I'll make some tea for you two. You have worked hard."

As a result, as soon as Gongsun finished speaking, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned. Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao, and finally the two poked their heads into the study together.

"Mr. Gongsun... don't you want to say that this room full of books wants to come out to bask in the sun?"

Gongsun Ce was so amiable that he cupped his fists: "On behalf of these books, I would like to thank you two for your great kindness."

Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang looked sad: Why did you agree so happily just now? !
