chivalrous cat and righteous mouse

No matter, after seven days, the seven orifices will bleed, and you will die. If you want the antidote, you need to ask Young Master Zhan to take the Wuling Pearl and go to the ruined temple to exchange it alone. "

Zhan Zhao's heart trembled, thinking that this thief is so vicious!He was feeling ruthless in his heart, when he suddenly saw Bao Xing running over, he blessed him and said, "Master Zhan, Young Hero Bai, my master is here to invite you."

Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and Ma Han followed Bao Xing to the courtyard next door, and after entering Gongsun's room, they saw Gongsun Ce Ning walking around behind the screen with eyebrows.Zhan Zhao hurriedly asked him, "Sir, how are they?"

Gongsun Ce glanced at Zhan Zhao, sighed, shook his head, and then said to Bao Zheng, "My lord, this poison is called Seven Insects and Seven Grasses, and it is made from fourteen kinds of poisonous insects and weeds. The antidote also requires ten Four kinds of poisons are mixed and formulated to fight poison with poison, but only the poison maker himself knows what these fourteen poisons are, and the students are powerless. Better buy some time."

After listening to Gongsun's reply, Bao Zheng lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then asked again, "How is Xiaotian's condition?"

"Return to your lord, the subordinate felt that he had no fever last night, but his body is still a little weak, and the bruises are still there."

Bao Zheng nodded, "Our government expects that the person who poisoned him should be the person who pretended to be Tian Biao. This person behaves suspiciously, and it may be related to this case. On the one hand, we want to win the solution from him." On the other hand, this person needs to be arrested and interrogated. Zhan Wei, although Xiaotian is still young and sick, but the thief called him to change the antidote by name. The situation is urgent, and he can only be killed by himself. It's dangerous. The government hopes that you and Young Master Bai will go with you, hide in the dark, wait for the opportunity, and arrest this person."

Zhan Zhao took the order, "Don't tell me, my lord, my subordinate and Brother Bai will follow. My lord, please arrange another group of people to sneak in the bushes behind the ruined temple to prevent the thieves from cunningly escaping."

Bao Zheng agreed, "Guard Zhan is thoughtful."

Zhan Zhao asked Ma Han again, "Did the thief say when to change the medicine?"

Ma Han looked up and thought for a moment, then replied, "The time of Hai will be three days later."

Zhan Zhao said hello, then bid farewell to Bai Yutang and left.After leaving the courtyard, he suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Bai Yutang, and asked, "Would you like to have breakfast together?"

Bai Yutang hadn't said a word since just now, and now, listening to Zhan Zhao's question to himself, he weighed the weight of "together" in his heart, then squinted his eyes, stared at him for a long time before responding lightly, "Thief cat!" After finishing speaking, he gave Zhan Zhao a blank look, raised his legs and walked towards the yard beside him.

Zhan Zhao looked at his back, surprised that the white mouse had figured out what he meant, twitching the corners of his mouth, he hurriedly followed.

Break through one by one

Zhan Zhao saw Wang Erhu who was on duty outside the courtyard. He walked over, took out the money at his waist and handed it to him, telling him to go to the breakfast shop on the street to buy some steamed buns and porridge, and then he and Bai Yutang strolled around. Into the side yard.

Yin Hua and Tian Biao lived in that courtyard at the moment. The two heard the bustling noise outside in their sleep. Although they didn't know what happened, they were already awake for three minutes, and they couldn't fall asleep. Yin Hua and Tian Biao got up one after another, washed and changed their clothes, and after tidying themselves up, they saw Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang approaching leisurely.

These two people didn't know the purpose of the two of them coming, they all bowed to welcome them out, while talking politely, they let them inside.

Zhan Zhao waved his hand, sat on the stone bench outside the courtyard with a smile, his eyes flicked back and forth on the faces of Yin Hua and Tian Biao, and muttered in his heart, not knowing which would be the best way to start, but he said, "How did you two get up so early?" Zhan thought that only martial arts practitioners have the habit of getting up early."

Tian Biao was taken aback when he heard this, and took a sneaky look at Yin Hua.Although the two of them are not familiar with each other and haven't exchanged a few words, but they live in the same yard, meeting is unavoidable. At that time, when he saw the man in the blue shirt dressed as a scholar, with a thin figure, he naturally thought of him Undoubtedly, he was a scholar, and he had never doubted his identity. Now that Zhan Zhao said it intentionally or unintentionally, he started to figure out the identity of the other party in his heart.

He was thinking to himself, but Yin Hua said calmly, "Caomin usually has the habit of reading in the morning, so they get up earlier, and today the county government doesn't know when it happened, it's a bit noisy."

"Bai often wakes up early for morning reading, but I don't know what kind of books Mister reads on weekdays?" Bai Yutang ignored what he said about the noise in the yamen, and firmly grasped the morning reading to exchange greetings with Yin Hua.Just now Zhan Zhao poked his waist and eyes with his fingers from below, signaling him to cooperate with him, Bai Yutang was a little speechless, his pair of phoenix eyes were laid lazily, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned unintentionally, his appearance was very moving, Yin Hua looked at it A little dazed, he didn't answer for a long time, Bai Yutang squinted his eyes impatiently, but felt someone tugging at the corner of his clothes.Without thinking, he knew it was Zhan Zhao, so he had no choice but to put away his impatience, and tentatively called, "Sir?"

Yin Hua was brought back to reality by this soft call. He coughed twice in embarrassment, hugged his wrists, and said, "The student's surname is Yin, his name is Hua, and his name is Zifan. I don't know if your surname is Dafu?"

"Bai Yutang, the name is Zeyan." Bai Yutang gave his name and name in a perfunctory manner, and suddenly felt a little regretful to accompany Zhan Zhao in this play. Looking at him with strange eyes made him feel even more uncomfortable.

Yin Hua stared at Bai Yutang's face, secretly admiring in his heart, he didn't know that such a beautiful face could exist in this world.He thought for a moment, then said to Bai Yutang, "The students read all the books at home, but now they are in the county government office, otherwise they can ask Mr. Bai to point them out. Thinking that it will be boring in the government office these few days, the student I borrowed an ancient jade book from Lord Yao yesterday to satisfy my greed. I wonder if Mr. Bai has researched on beautiful jade?"

"Know a thing or two." Bai Yutang replied lightly.

"That's very good! The student was lucky enough to get a piece of jade a few days ago. It looked transparent and crystal clear, but the student didn't know anything about beautiful jade, and he didn't know much about it. Can you do me a favor and inspect the goods for the students?" Yin Hua got up, bowed to Bai Yutang, lowered his head slightly, and showed an imperceptible smile.

Bai Yutang was just about to speak, but felt that the corners of his clothes were getting heavy again. He curled his lips helplessly, gave Zhan Zhao a blank look, got up and said, "Then I'll have Brother Yao lead the way." After finishing speaking, he bypassed Zhan Zhao and followed Yin Hua went to the room.

The four of them sat facing each other outside the courtyard, but now they entered the room to look at the jade, and only Zhan Zhao and Tian Biao remained.Zhan Zhao called a girl over, first asked him if Erhu had come back, saw the girl shook her head, and then ordered a pot of tea to be brought.The girl bowed her head and ran away in response, and ran back after a while, with an extra tray in her hand.It's just that this girl is not very old, and she ran in a hurry. She was about to reach the stone table, and when the girl stirred garlic, Huo was about to fall forward. She exclaimed, and the tray in her hand flew away. go out.

The moment Zhan Zhao was stirring garlic under her feet, he already sensed something was wrong, and when he turned his head away, he just heard the girl's exclamation.Saying it was too late, Zhan Zhao grabbed the giant gate at hand, turned around and flew out. At the same time, he swung his sword and twisted his body in the air. When he looked again, the girl was already firmly on the ground. Standing still, the tray obediently stood on Zhan Zhao's palm.Tian Biao rubbed his eyes, he didn't see how he did it at all, he just felt that his speed was astonishingly fast.

The girl turned pale with fright, stood still panting, Zhan Zhao smiled at the girl, shook his head, and signaled that she was fine.The girl caressed her chest, her face flushed, she blessed Zhan Zhao, then turned around and left with small steps.Only then did Zhan Zhao put the tray flat on the table, and while he lifted the teapot to pour tea into a cup, he glanced at Tian Biao intentionally or unintentionally, and asked him, "Which branch of Huawu Villa does Brother Tian belong to?"

Tian Biao was shocked when he saw Zhan Zhao saving the girl and the teapot. He didn't know how he could lift the girl who was about to fall, and hold the girl who put the teapot and teacup firmly. The one on the tray, who was secretly saying strange in his heart, suddenly heard Zhan Zhao's gentle, chatty question, Tian Biao opened his mouth in surprise, and asked after a long while, "How did Mr. Zhan know? "

Zhan Zhao looked up at him, then continued to pour the second cup of tea.He naturally understood in his heart that Tian Biao asked how he knew about the internal branch of Huawu Villa, so he smiled slightly and said leisurely, "Huawu Villa has disappeared in the rivers and lakes for many years. At that time, Huawu Villa was well-known. Who in the rivers and lakes doesn't know? It's just that one day, for unknown reasons, the Huawu Villa suddenly disappeared overnight, which really made everyone puzzled. The various sects in the rivers and lakes sent many masters to investigate this matter, but They all came back with no results. I don’t know if the villa intends to come out of the rivers and lakes this time?”

Tian Biao looked down at Zhan Zhao's pair of slender and jade-like hand pots to fill tea. Hearing his question, he raised his eyes and shook his head like a rattle. I only do some private affairs secretly, and I never wanted to cause trouble."

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, leaned forward subconsciously, and asked him in a low voice, "What's the secret hidden in that distinctive Wuling that Zhan found in the ruined temple that day? What is the red dot on the golden flower? What does it mean? Why do so many people want it?"

Tian Biao's face was startled, and it became more and more ugly as Zhan Zhao's question was thrown out.
