red dust robbery

"I heard that Lu Da is the head of the cunning rabbit's three caves, Kaifeng Mansion Zhanzhao, waiting here for a long time!"

The young man in the black crown and red clothes stood calmly holding the sword, raised his eyebrows and eyes, and when he spoke, his voice was clear, like the sun and the moon.

Lu Huanfeng could no longer retreat, and Bai Yutang's shadow was already behind him, he had no choice but to stand still, with an unbelievable look in his eyes: "Impossible, how could you find this secret path..."

Zhan Zhao was noncommittal: "Master Lu Da, you are suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason, the evidence of the crime is solid, please come back to Kaifeng Mansion with Zhan!"

Lu Huanfeng was stunned for a moment, trying to cover up his previous panic, and suddenly he looked up to the sky and laughed three times: "Zhan Zhao, ah Zhan Zhao, you became famous when you were young, and the world calls you a Nanxia, ​​how chic and happy, I didn't expect to wear this official uniform now, It's such a pity to put on airs like this!"

Zhan Zhao remained silent.

Since he joined the public school, he has heard too many similar words. Back then, Bai Yutang even went straight to Kaifeng to make a scene in Tokyo, and used this word to run on him more than once. Fortunately, the two are familiar with each other's temperament. Most of the time, it was just a joke, but in front of so many Jianghu people today, he was wearing a vermilion official uniform, holding an arrest warrant in his hand, and the way he threatened the wanted criminal with a sword was a bit glaring after all.

"Since entering the Gongmen, Zhan has always believed that he has always acted according to legal principles, and only wanted to guard a side of the blue sky and protect the safety of the people." He raised his eyes, and his dark eyes were calm and unwavering, "Zhan believes that the way of a knight lies not only in Rivers and lakes!"

What is an official and what is a chivalrous man, as long as there is a chivalrous heart in his chest, an official can also be a chivalrous man.

As long as the people have a blue sky above their heads and the world is clear, why are they afraid of being criticized by thousands of people, why are they afraid of bowing their knees to serve the powerful?

The surrounding heroes seemed to be still comprehending the deep meaning of the conversation, but Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Well said, as long as you have chivalry in your heart, you can become a chivalrous man even if you enter the public school, unlike some People, under the banner of being a decent and chivalrous man, are actually doing those activities of forming alien races and betraying the country for glory!"

"Old Five is right!" Xu Qing exclaimed, and everyone behind him echoed, "This kid has been a disaster for 1000 years, we can't let him go!"

Lu Huanfeng peeked at the surrounding movement from the corner of his eyes, but suddenly swung the serial knife in his hand, Zhan Zhao's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick, Zhan Lu's cold light flickered in his hand, and he shot down the blade of his knife. Bai Yutang's picture was like lightning, it was already on his throat, and he raised his foot and hit his knee, Lu Huanfeng couldn't bear it and fell to his knees.

There was a painful expression of humiliation on his face: "Bai Yutang, kill as you want, don't talk nonsense!"

"You think Master Bai dare not?"

Bai Yutang relentlessly put together, increased the weight in his hand, the figure screamed, bloodthirsty neighed, Zhan Zhao was startled when he saw it, and held his snow-colored sword with a sword: "Brother Bai, don't do it!"

"This person has committed a serious crime and must be escorted back to Kaifeng Mansion for trial. Find out who is behind it!"

Bai Yutang hooked the corner of his mouth, glanced at the boring cat with his slender phoenix eyes, and drew back his sword with a cold snort: "I knew you wanted to say that."

Zhan Zhao knew that he was just talking poisonously for a moment of quick talk, so he didn't bother with him, he just curled the corners of his mouth helplessly.

At this time, he brought a group of officers and soldiers who had already arrived here, and Zhan Zhao gave him a look, indicating that they should tie up Lu Huanfeng and take him back to the official prison on Yizhou Road for the time being.

A few soldiers headed up came up and tied Lu Huanfeng in five hands, but the latter seemed to have lost all vitality, his eyes were slumped, and when he was caught by the sword and walked out, he suddenly opened his eyes vigilantly, and moved towards the neck with lightning speed. The edge of the edge hit--

Blood splashes!

When everyone came back to their senses, the heavy body of the man had slowly fallen down.

Zhan Zhao's calm expression changed, he strode up to catch up, touched his knees, and went to check his breath, but the tentacle was the cold silence of death.

Surprised by this sudden change, the crowd froze for a moment and gathered around, discussing for a while.

Ah Jiu was watching coldly, but at this time she couldn't hide her surprise. She separated from the crowd and came up, squatting down to observe the expression of the deceased, but saw that his eyes were dull, his face was pale, and blood was gurgling from his neck, and there was a large area under his body. The land was dyed bright red.

She took a deep breath, shaking off a sudden chill.

Zhan Zhao was paying attention to her expression, he seemed to have a premonition that she should know something, or she should be able to say something, but when she raised her head, there was an evasive look in her eyes, and she just shook her head slowly.

He frowned slightly, holding Zhanlu's hand, secretly tightening it.

In the next three days, Ren Yuanshan quickly took over the big and small affairs of the Qinglong Hall, and cleaned out the forces that originally belonged to Lu Huanfeng in the hall. However, those cronies who followed Lu Huanfeng committed suicide by taking poison immediately, cutting off Zhan Zhao who wanted to continue to investigate. all clues.

And Ah Jiu just watched coldly without saying a word.

Zhan Zhao thought that she must have guessed something, but she refused to say it.

Are you refusing to say it, still saying you don't want to say it, or are you waiting for something?

On the eve of his departure back to Kaifeng, he sat on the roof of the inn, looking at the white moon above his head, his eyes were distant and deep like the sea.

In the past thousand years in his memory, he also seemed to like to ponder on the moon.

Everyone in the world said it was because of the Guanghan Palace Master, but now that he recalled it, he felt that maybe it was just a habit, not related to love. Watching the moon's waxing and waning was like watching thousands of years.

It's just that he doesn't know, where should his soul, which has been washed away by thousands of years of wind and sand, be placed now?

Suddenly there was a slight movement of air beside him, he raised his eyelids, and saw a snow-colored shirt facing him, Bai Yutang sat up with two jars of wine, and handed one of them familiarly: "It's better to sit here alone in a daze. Drink with Master Bai!"

Zhan Zhao was stunned for a moment, but he was used to his behavior, raised his eyebrows helplessly, and took the wine jar he handed over.

"The matter of the Qinglong Hall is over, and the defense plan of Xichuan has been retrieved. My four elder brothers plan to set off to return to the empty island tomorrow. Since I promised Mr. Bao to investigate the matter that day, it will naturally end well. I will follow you back to Kaifeng Mansion to close the case."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows: "It's very rare for Bai Wuye to cooperate with Zhan so much."

"You stinky cat, fifth master, even if I don't have any credit, I have worked hard on this journey. If you don't appreciate it, go back to Kaifeng by yourself. Be careful that someone covets your defense plan and plots against you halfway!"

Bai Yutang snorted coldly, Zhan Zhao had no choice but to bend the corner of his mouth, but he also knew that if the people behind the scenes were not dead on the way back, it might not be impossible to set up an ambush along the way, although with his level of kung fu, he might not be afraid of these young people, But also grateful for his kindness.

"Don't dare, since Brother Bai has worked tirelessly, Zhan would rather obey his orders than be respectful."

"Hmph!" Bai Yutang raised his head and took a sip of his wine, "I don't like how you put on airs like a stinky cat!"

Zhan Zhao laughed, raised his hand to raise the wine jar, nodded as a signal, and swallowed lightly.

"Zhan Zhao." Bai Yutang looked at him, his eyes flashed a few times, and finally said suddenly, "Do you have something to hide from me?"

Zhan Zhao's eyebrows trembled slightly, he just looked at him and said, "Brother Bai, why did you say that?"

"When did you have such a powerful magic weapon?" Bai Yutang turned his face from joking, "Could it be that you and I have been fighting for many years, and you still can't keep one?"

Zhan Zhao was silent for a while.

"It's a relic of my dead mother. It's only a coincidence recently that I found out that it's an ancient magic weapon." He said slowly, giving an explanation that he thought was reasonable.

The noble and dignified woman dressed in white but faded away under the ten-day exposure appeared in my mind, and my heart twitched for no reason.

Bai Yutang watched his frown slightly, remained silent for a long time, and then said: "Zhan Zhao, you have changed."

Zhan Zhao cast an inquiring look.

Bai Yutang stopped talking.

It has changed, but I don't know where it has changed.

I just vaguely feel that this gentle and jade-like Nan Xia, the gentleman's royal cat, has somehow added a bit of brutality and decisiveness, as well as the vicissitudes and loneliness that seem to have settled for thousands of years.

Zhan Zhao looked at him, and finally withdrew his gaze.

"Brother Bai." He took a sip of wine without looking at him, "I didn't mean to hide some things from you, but I didn't even understand those things myself, let alone say them like others... If you believe me enough , there is no need to ask..."

Bai Yutang looked at him for a long time, but finally frowned fiercely, raised his neck and took a big gulp of wine: "Forget it, you stinky cat has such a temper!"

Zhan Zhao smiled.

"Brother Bai is free and unrestrained, free and easy in the world." He curled the corner of his mouth, but with a slightly sad arc, "And I, after all, are different..."

Bai Yutang, that is an extremely unrestrained character, looking up between the heaven and the earth, traveling across the rivers and lakes, laughing and cursing, all of them are romantic, this unrestrained and wanton, Zhan Zhao can't match, Yang Jian can't do it either.

"Hmph, who told you to let go of your happy life, but you have to wear an official uniform and tie your hands and feet!" Bai Yutang gave him a white look, "Speaking of which, you have been thinking a lot these days, but it's still because of Lu Huanfeng's behind-the-scenes people?"

"The strangeness of the death of the snake demon and Lu Huanfeng is something that no one can let go of."

"Cat." Bai Yutang looked at him with a frown, "That day, when the snake demon and Lu Huanfeng died, didn't you find Ding girl's expression strange?"

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows.

"I've known her since I was a child. That girl has always had her eyes high above her head, and she rarely has such an expression. She must have thought of something, but she didn't say anything at the time." Bai Yutang continued, "Afterwards, you didn't ask again. Ask?"

"Brother Bai, have you ever asked?"

Zhan Zhao asked back, but unexpectedly, Bai Yutang's expression became awkward.

"That girl." He snorted softly, "You have a very strict mouth!"

Zhan Zhao's eyes sank, as if he was meditating on something.

Bai Yutang looked at him and took a deep breath: "Zhan Zhao, you have been watching Ren Yuanshan clean up the remnants of the party these days, but you haven't asked, what are you worried about? I can see that Ding girl never said anything. It's not that he refuses to say it, but that he's waiting for you to ask him, or for you to think about it, so Zhan Zhao, what are you thinking about?"

Zhan Zhao suddenly raised his eyelids, and a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes.

Bai Yutang raised his sword eyebrows lightly.

But Zhan Zhao just remained silent for a long time, holding Zhan Lu's hand secretly tightened, and finally raised his head and drank the last sip of wine, and jumped off the roof.

"Hey!" Bai Yutang stood up and shouted angrily, "Zhan Zhao!"

But seeing the blue shirt, the back of the moon was straight, and there was a loud voice: "Thank you, Brother Bai, for the reminder, Zhan... will figure it out..."
