Jin Yuxing, a mouse and cat

"Why are you drinking in such a hurry, why can't you take it easy?" Bai Yutang said to him obediently, and did not forget to preach, this stinky cat dared to drink in such a hurry even though he knew he couldn't drink!

The behavior of the two of them naturally caused a lot of teasing in the eyes of others.Xu Qing was a person who couldn't keep his mouth shut, so he yelled to everyone: "Why didn't we find out that Fifth Brother has such a considerate side before?"

Jiang Ping held the feather on the fan and smiled, "This is considerate, we have to see who is being considerate? It can't be for our buddies!"

Looking at Mao'er's ruddy face, Bai Yutang smiled and turned his eyes away because of Jiang Ping's words, "Little brother forgot to punish himself, no wonder the brothers are idle, the younger brother punishes himself with three cups, and punishes himself with three cups."

Lu Fang smiled helplessly and shook his head, but Jiang Ping waved his hands because of Bai Yutang's words, "One glass is enough, don't finish the wine!"

"That's right. Fourth brother is right!" Hong Ling hurriedly echoed.

Naturally, the family dinner was eaten comfortably, and there were constant laughter on the table.

On this day, outsiders from the Daxiangguo Temple went to the sea, and the Imperial Forest Army, wearing armor and spears, patrolled one by one.This Xiangguo Temple is an old temple, and there are many eminent monks living in it. Every time the emperor held a ceremony to worship the heavens, it was here.

There are a lot of pennants outside the temple, the golden light is shining in the orange, and there are still pilgrims on the road leading to the temple.Zhao Zhen ordered that although it is a sacrifice to heaven, the people should not be disturbed to worship gods and Buddha.

Worshiping heaven is on the terrace of the former temple. Three monks in Buddhist robes bowed their heads and closed their eyes to chant scriptures in front of the incense table above. There are golden incense burners on both sides of the table, each with a tall arm-like There is also a purple copper stove in the middle of the cigarette.

All the people standing under the stage were officials, surrounded by a row of imperial guards.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao stood behind Bao Zheng. Bai Yutang looked around and said with a smile, "Mao'er, this is a big battle for the emperor to offer sacrifices to heaven. This is the first time I have participated."

Zhan Zhao nodded, looked up at the fire ring on a cigarette on the stage and slowly replied: "It's the first time I've seen it too."

Bai Yutang's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to look at Zhan Zhao's profile, "Mao'er, this is your first time here too? Seeing how calm you are, I thought you often participate!"

Zhan Zhao pouted and looked at Bai Yutang, and grabbed his fidgeting hand, "Okay, don't talk about it, we just need to ensure the safety of your lord." He was about to let go, but Bai Yutang didn't let go. "You..." Zhan Zhao frowned and looked at him.

"Shh, the little emperor is offering sacrifices to the heavens, be quiet." Bai Yutang blinked his eyes and said obediently, then looked up at the sacrifice platform with a bright expression.

Zhan Zhao was helpless, and it was his own fault.

"Mr. Gongsun, why does this residence always feel uneasy for a few days?" Bao Zheng said to Gongsun Ce who was beside him.

Gongsun Ce glanced at King Xiangyang who was standing not far away, and replied, "Every time the emperor sacrifices to heaven, doesn't your lord always say that?"

Bao Zheng sighed, this time is different!

The monk on the platform said after reciting scriptures: "I invite the emperor to offer sacrifices to the heavens."

After hearing this, the people below consciously gave way to a path. A young monk led Zhao Zhen out of the house. The young monk sprinkled water to lead the way, and Zhao Zhen walked sideways on the watered road behind him.The Buddhists said: This water is pure water, which washes away the dust and guides the way for those who are clear-eyed. When offering sacrifices to the heavens, the gods in the sky can feel their sincerity.

Zhao Zhen had already fasted overnight in this temple, and all the officials came this morning.Holding three incense sticks in both hands, Zhao Zhen walked step by step. He had a majestic physique and a heroic demeanor, and a sense of royal domineering naturally gushed out from his gestures.He stood in front of the incense table, held the incense with both hands and slowly bowed to the sky three times, muttering in his mouth: "God Chengze, please grant me good weather and good weather this year." After he finished speaking, the little monk beside him took the incense in his hand and inserted it into the purple incense burner middle.

After this time, there was a long silence, and all the officials in the audience knelt down on one knee and worshiped: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." This momentum, this voice wanted to break through the sky.

Zhao Zhen turned around, put one hand behind his back, and raised the other high, "Everyone is flat. A Buddhist gift from King Xuan Xiangyang!"

Another young monk who had been standing for a long time under the altar walked out of the crowd with a wooden box in his hand. Everyone's eyes were on the black wooden box held by the young monk. The young monk looked quite calm as he approached Zhao Zhen step by step without looking sideways. , "Please open it, Your Majesty."

Zhao Zhen nodded, and opened the wooden box. Inside the box were three relics, all of which were the size of pigeon eggs. Although the relics looked ordinary on the outside, they were treasures of Buddhism, whether on the altar or off the stage. , all the monks were surprised, then immediately closed their eyes and bowed their heads and said: "Amitabha."

Zhao Zhen raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Jue under the altar, and smiled with satisfaction, "Uncle Huang is worried, this treasure should be placed in Daxiangguo Temple!"

"My Buddha is merciful!" All the monks saluted.

When everyone was happy and satisfied, in the blink of an eye, several black-clothed masked men appeared on the roof of the temple, turned over and landed on the altar.

"There are assassins, be careful, Your Majesty!" Bao Zheng shouted, "Quick escort! Escort!"

When the man in black appeared, there was already chaos under the altar.

A man in black raised his knife and slashed at Zhao Zhen. Bai Yutang was quick and shot out the Zhan Yu Stone, only to hear a 'ding', which was slightly ear-piercing. The target was also Zhao Zhen. He sneaked up from behind and raised his knife to strike from the back of Zhao Zhen's head.

At the critical moment, Zhan Zhao pulled the emperor away, and the giant gate blocked the big steel knife that was slashing straight down. The man in black was shaken by the shock, so he had to retreat in a hurry.Zhan Zhao sideways guarded Zhao Zhen with the giant que, he tilted his head and shouted: "Yutang, take the emperor first!"

The crowd in the audience was surging, Gongsun Ce knew that the emperor would be fine, and the most urgent thing was Bao Zheng, so he dragged Bao Zheng into the temple, if he couldn't beat him, at least he could escape!

There were many more men in black at some point, and they fought with the Imperial Forest Army below. The monks closed their eyes when they saw the fighting scene, "Buddhist holy land, Buddhist holy land!"

Bai Yutang arranged a few people over there, and flew onto the altar, pointed his long sword obliquely, walked to Zhan Zhao, looked around, and said to Zhao Zhen: "Your Majesty, be careful, follow me!"

Zhan Zhao nodded from Bai Yutang, blocking the men in black beside him.Fifth Master thought that these people were not Zhan Zhao's opponents, so he took Zhao Zhen away with peace of mind.

Just a few steps away, a man in black with a silver mask on his face and a black robe came to block their way with a sword.

Bai Yutang raised his eyes, this person gave him a different feeling from other assassins, seeing him pointing at Zhao Zhen with a sword, Bai Yutang couldn't help but smile, "It looks like you should be their leader, right?"

The man wearing the silver mask stared fiercely at Zhao Zhen, and said every word: "I only take his life!" The man's voice was extremely strange and sharp.

"Bai...Guard Bai." Zhao Zhen couldn't help trembling, he stretched out his hand to grab Bai Yutang's arm, but put it down halfway, maybe thinking of something, he asked: "Why do you want to kill me?"

"A dying person, why ask so many questions!" the man said coldly, shook the sword in his hand, and stabbed at Bai Yutang.

Zhao Zhen staggered back. He tried his best to suppress his heartbeat, and looked down. There were already shadows of swords and clangs all around him.

The person wearing the silver mask is not an ordinary person. The sword he uses is a three-foot-long soft sword. The blade is as thin as a cicada's wing, with a blue light flowing. This person's swordsmanship is fast. Several openings were made, and several shining shadows of knives flew straight out.

After a few moves, it was not easy for Bai Yutang to take down the opponent, so he attacked with seven points and defended with three points.Bai Yutang has lightness kung fu, although his Shadow Snow Step is not as good as Zhan Zhao's Swallow Flying, but it is still superior in lightness kung fu, so the other party didn't even catch his shadow.

The two sword eyebrows exposed by the masked man slowly frowned, watching Bai Yutang's swaying figure, lowered his weapon.

Zhan Zhao was also entangled here, and saw the other person withdraw from the battle circle and run towards Zhao Zhen who was alone.

There was no dangerous fight, Zhao Zhen seemed to have been immobilized, his hands and feet were stiff, unable to move, he watched the man running towards him with a steel knife, the white light of the knife dazzled his eyes and hurt him.Zhao Zhen frowned at the moment, took a step with his eyes, and waited for the steel knife to fall. After a while, he found that there was no movement. He slowly opened his eyes, only to see that the man had already died on the spot, bleeding all over the place.

"Is the emperor all right?"

Zhao Zhen was brought back to his senses by this sound, and he looked at the people around him, "Uncle Emperor, you saved me?"

Holding the big steel knife, Zhao Jue nodded with a blank expression.

Zhao Zhen had gone through life and death a few times in just a few strokes, he still had lingering fears in his heart, and kept saying: "Okay, okay." He looked at Bai Yutang and shouted: "Guard Bai, capture that thief!"

The masked man and Bai Yutang stood opposite each other, neither of them spoke.Hearing Zhao Zhen's voice, the fifth master frowned slightly and then smiled like a spring breeze, "The emperor has spoken, you are ready, the master is going to take off your mask!" He turned his hand back, and the shadow of the sword shot out cold light.

The man on the opposite side retreated step by step, seeing that he was not ready for a fierce battle, he smiled coldly: "Bai Yutang, don't worry! We have time to fight again!" After he finished speaking, he kicked his legs on the ground and supported the flagpole behind him Leaped onto the roof, kicked a few times, and disappeared on the roof, and the rest of the men in black also retreated.

Zhan Zhao retracted his sword and walked over, calling out to Bai Wuye, who was still looking at the roof, "Yutang."

"Cat, I always feel that I know this person." Bai Yutang looked back at him and said softly.

As the assassins retreated, a large group of people rushed forward, of course there were also imperial doctors carrying medicine boxes, "Your Majesty, are you not injured?"

Zhao Zhen frowned and shook his head, "It's okay. Go back to the palace!"

The golden sedan chair was ready, guarded by the Imperial Forest Army all the way, and the crowd returned to the palace.

The emperor was overjoyed and rewarded Zhao Jue with ten thousand taels of gold and silver.Although the ministers looked at them with smiles on their faces, they didn't know what each other was thinking. Who was this assassin?The emperor didn't say anything, and no one went to investigate.
