Zhan Zhao turned around, and saw Bai Yutang standing behind him with his hands behind his back, not holding a knife, wearing a white casual clothes, followed by a white and pure looking at a particularly clever round-faced little girl, holding a basket in her hand, looking at Zhan Zhao curiously.
Zhan Zhao was a little embarrassed for a moment and scratched his head.
Fortunately, at this time, the little four sons from behind the window flew out, "in vain" The little four sons were short and chubby, and they were already top-heavy, so they rushed so hard that they fell out of the car window.
Zhan Zhao hurriedly reached out and grabbed his clothes.
At the same time, I saw that the chubby round-faced plate girl behind Bai Yutang had arrived and caught the little fourth son.
Zhan Zhao was slightly stunned, and secretly praised this girl's fast body.
Looking up and down, this girl is only sixteen or seventeen years old, how can she have such a high internal force The little fourth son was startled, looked up, and saw that he was followed by a chubby girl, who looked really blessed The girl looked at him for a while, hugged and rubbed her face, "It's so cute" The little fourth son was embarrassed to be rubbed, but this sister was chubby and soft.
Gongsun and the others all came out to greet Bai Yutang, but Master Bao and Pang Ji didn't get out of the car, they nodded to Bai Yutang, anyway, everyone was familiar with each other.
Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang curiously, "How did you know we would come?"
Bai Yutang was a little crying and laughing, and pointed to the long patrol team and the many onlookers in front of him, "The news has already been spread." ” Bao Zheng nodded and asked everyone to go to the yamen.
Zhao Pu didn't want to go to the Yamen, anyway, he was here to hang out, so Ouyang asked Bai Yutang, "Is there a good inn to introduce?"
Before Bai Yutang could speak, the little girl said, "What do you do in the guest house, the young master's guests naturally live at home." ” Zhan Zhao was slightly stunned, "Isn't your family on the Sky Island?"
"The young master has a house in many places."
The little girl smiled, and while returning the little fourth son who had been rubbing for a long time to Zhanzhao, she said to Bai Yutang, "I'll go prepare the guest room." ” Bai Yutang nodded, and the little girl ran away without a trace.
Zhan Zhao wondered, "Kung Fu is good enough." ” Bai Yutang smiled, "Her name is Chen Xing'er, and there is a crescent moon, both of them are my mother's apprentices, they are very capable, and they can help the handle, so they brought them." ” "Oh" Zhanzhao knew in his heart, Bai Yutang was the palace master of Yingxue Palace, a generation of heroines, but she married and retired very early, and the people in the rivers and lakes didn't know much about her.
At this time, Zhao Pu and Gongsun had already gotten out of the car.
Bao Zheng signaled that Zhanzhao didn't have to follow him, and went to the other courtyard with Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang said to Bao Zheng, "Your Excellency, let's stay with me for a while, the yamen may not be able to live." ” Bao Zheng was slightly stunned, this Xizhou Mansion is so big, doesn't the prefect's yamen have a few rooms Bai Yutang smiled helplessly, didn't say anything, just said, "You'll know after watching it in a while."
As he spoke, he pointed to the east in the distance and said to Bao Zheng, "I live in the Lion Forest in the suburbs, Baifu. ” Bao Zheng still nodded, wondering in his heart, is the yamen so small Zhan Zhao seemed to be a little hesitant, so he asked Bai Yutang, "You come back to settle the dispute of the Tianshan faction, we will investigate the case, if you live there, will it make the people of the Tianshan faction think that you have brought people from the government to solve internal affairs?"
Bai Yutang shook his head, "Lu Feng reported to the official on the first day of the murder, and the government was originally investigating.
All the officials of the prefect's yamen here may not be able to beat the dead Yue Chengxi, so I asked Lord Bao who went out on patrol to come over, what's the problem?"
Zhan Zhao nodded, "That's true, but there are so many people in the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable that they will talk about you." ” Bai Yutang smiled, "Whether you live or not, they will say, let them go."
After speaking, he turned his head to everyone and signaled to go.
Zhanzhao is also an open-minded person, but he is worried about Bai Yutang, but since he doesn't care, it means that it doesn't matter.
The happiest thing is the little fourth son, who was carried on the shoulders by the ochre shadow, looking around, this Xizhou Mansion is much more lively than Knife and Axe Town, and they came out so soon to meet Bai Yutang, and everyone can be together again.
Bai Yutang took Zhanzhao and others all the way to the suburbs, and saw a quiet bamboo forest, this bamboo forest is not the same as ordinary bamboo, the bamboo poles and bamboo leaves are golden.
"Wow" Xiao Sizi was amazed when he saw this color of bamboo for the first time.
"This is a lion bamboo," Gongsun stretched out his hand to touch a bamboo leaf.
Bai Yutang nodded.
Zhao Pu wondered, "What's the matter with Lion Bamboo?"
"Lion bamboo is actually ordinary bamboo, but due to the soil and water source where the bamboo is located, the bamboo leaves and bamboo poles will appear golden yellow.
And the bamboo leaves are luxuriant, often growing into clumps.
Gongsun Erudite began to drop the book bag again, "There was also such a bamboo in the Tang Palace, which had not been named, until one day, the Persian envoy sent two mighty lions, and the Tang King remembered the clumps of bamboo leaves at a glance, so he named this kind of bamboo called Lion Bamboo. ” Everyone nodded, "Oh I see" Bai Yutang walked along a path paved with white stone slabs in the bamboo forest, and everyone walked all the way, enjoying the beautiful scenery among the bamboo forests all the way.
There seemed to be a lot of birds living in this bamboo forest, and I heard the crisp chirping.
The black shadow walked at the end, heard the call, suddenly pouted, learned all kinds of bird calls to tease the birds by him like this, the birds in the whole forest seemed to wake up, one after another, one after another, vibrant.
Xiao Sizi clapped his hand, "It's good, it's good." ” The shadow stretched out his hand, and after a few calls, he saw a blue, yellow-bellied long-tailed bird fly out and land on his fingers.
The bird took two steps left and right and then stood still, raised one foot, and lowered his head to peck at his toe with his beak.
The black shadow saw that the two eyes of the little fourth son were shining, so he said, "Do you want to touch it?"
The little fourth son is nervous, "will he run away?"
"No, it won't."
Xiao Sizi stretched out his hand and touched the bird's head.
The bird didn't seem to care at all.
The little fourth son touched it several times and clapped his hands happily.
"Or" the black shadow asked the little fourth son, "make a birdcage and raise it" Xiao Sizi shook his head vigorously and let the black shadow let it go.
The black shadow smiled slightly, raised his hand, and the bird flapped its wings and flew away.

At this time, everyone had already seen a large mansion in the distance.
The house is quite big, but it looks quite simple, not that luxurious style.
In front of the door, there are two strangely shaped stone gatekeepers, and there is a plaque on the top of the door, which reads "White House".
Gongsun touched his chin and looked at the two stone beasts in front of the door, scratching his head a little, "What kind of beast is this, neither like a stone lion nor a pixiu." ” Bai Yutang shrugged slightly, "I had this house when I bought it, and it looks good, so I haven't moved it." ” As he spoke, someone came to open the door.
The man who ran out to open the door was a butler in his thirties, very capable of wool, wearing a white coat and a few small servants behind him.
"Young Master, I'm back."
As he spoke, he politely saluted everyone, "I am the housekeeper Bai Fu." ” Everyone nodded in return.
Bai Fu invited everyone inside, took him to set up a salute, recognized the guest room, a very decent housekeeper, who didn't talk much and was not cold, and knew that he was a smart person as soon as he got along.
After the things were put down, the little fourth son couldn't wait to admire the house.
Gongsun was very puzzled, this is an ancient house, and the architectural style of the house is Tang style, although it is simple but exudes a sense of luxury.
And the furniture is made of cork, and the white jade hall is enough for silver, this house must be expensive, and it is very low-key.
The courtyard is very quiet, with a few quaint stone tables and stone benches, which is very comfortable.
Zhan Zhao found a stone stool and sat down, and asked Bai Yutang, "Tianzun is not in the Tianshan Sect."
Bai Yutang smiled slightly, "I want to see him" Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "A little." ” "He went to Yunnan to have a drink with an old friend, and he didn't know when he would come back."
Bai Yutang thought for a while, "You really want to meet, next time I take him to Kaifeng, you can meet by chance." ” Zhan Zhao made Bai Yutang laugh, although in the eyes of outsiders, this sentence is not funny at all, I really don't know the clear smile of Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, where the laughter belongs to the secret that only the two of them understand Ouyang raised his eyebrows at Zhao Pu and saw that only a few days after knowing each other had a secret.
Zhao Pu yawned, he didn't care much about the secret between Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang, he was more interested in the unicorn that would eat people, I don't know if it was difficult to raise, if there was one, catch it back and raise one, how powerful it should be when fighting.
Let's talk about Bao Zheng and Pang Ji.
With the mighty patrol procession, they arrived at the yamen.
Bao Zheng lifted the curtain and looked at it, stunned, the yamen is quite big, although it is not particularly generous, but this place is enough to accommodate them.
Pang Ji didn't seem to understand very much, either.
When everyone got out of the car, they saw the Xizhou prefect eagerly welcoming out.
Bao Zheng and Pang Ji were stunned when they saw the prefect of Xizhou, how old is this old man, good guy, how can he look older than the two of them combined I saw that the prefect of Xizhou was not thin enough to weigh a few taels, wrapped in a handful of bones and skin, and the old man was full of white hair.
His official suit was estimated to be the smallest, but his clothes were still swaying like a sack on a bamboo pole.
Master Pang subconsciously looked at his belly, inhaled, and tightened his abdomen "Xiaguan, meet Master Bao and Master Pang Pang" Don't get me wrong, it's not that the prefect stammered, but that he ran a little hard just now, and he couldn't breathe.
Master Pang counted the total of three steps behind him, would this old man suddenly gasp and die Master Bao thought about it, when he went out, he brought the roster of local officials in various prefectures, cities and counties, and before that, the prefect of Xizhou should be called Spear Dingsheng, and he seems to be seventy-nine years old this year, as if he is the oldest among the officials in office.
"Spear-sama doesn't have to be polite."
Bao Zheng looked at the five hundred officials and generals behind him, and asked the prefect, "Is there a place to settle my subordinates?"
"Uh" Spear Dingsheng suddenly began to pump himself, "It's all the lower officials who are not doing things well, and the lower officials" Bao Zheng hurriedly stopped him, and said in his heart, good guy, these fingers are thinner than chopsticks, and the neck is not as thick as Xiao Sizi's arm, don't twitch it twice in a while and even pull off the head.
"Master Baobao, Taishi."
The prefect asked tremblingly, "Two adults, do you mind staying at the guest house?"
Bao Zheng and Pang Ji were stunned for a moment, and Bai Yutang really said that the county government couldn't hold it Pang Ji dragged Bao Zheng, and made eye contact with him, you see that this spear is so old, it is estimated that there are four generations, and it is not possible to have five generations in the same house, and you see that he indulged in pleasure when he was young, maybe there are more than a dozen ladies, and now there are one or two hundred people in the family, and they can't live there Bao Zheng gave him a roll of his eyes, turned around and asked Spear Dingsheng, "Why can't you live?"
"Uh" The appearance of the spear peaking and stopping at the top of his life made Bao Zheng a little suspicious.
A master beside Mao Dingsheng couldn't help but help him answer, "Master Bao, there was an earthquake in the village next door before, the houses collapsed, and more than 200 villagers had no place to live, and it took a while to build the house, so now I am temporarily living in the yamen."
In addition, the old man likes to take in some street children on weekdays, and the yamen has long been full.
"Oh" Bao Zheng sounded quite fresh, curious to enter the yamen and take a look, and found that the entire yamen was like a vegetable market, full of people, adults, children, chickens, ducks, cats and dogs Bao Zheng and Pang Ji silently retreated, so let's go to live in Baiyutang.
Bao Zheng remembers that the roster of officials contains a general description of the personality and governance of each official.
The reason why this spear Dingsheng can serve as the prefect of Xizhou Mansion for so long is because the local people love him very much, it seems that he is a well-known parent official, who loves the people like a son or something, and all the silver is taken out to help the people of Xizhou Mansion who are in difficulty, and the emperor has rewarded him once before.
Moreover, because there is such a big sect as the Tianshan faction in the territory of Xizhou Mansion, the basic security and order are all watched by the Tianshan faction, and there are no other sects that will come here to make trouble, it seems that the relationship between Spear Dingsheng and Lu Feng, the head of the Tianshan faction, is very good.
Bao Zheng had a good impression of this kind-hearted old man, so he said, "It's okay, we can stay at a friend's house."
The prefect is quite curious, "which friend" Bao Zheng said, "Live in Baifu." ” "Oh" Mao Dingsheng smiled, "Bai Wuye, a good man, a good man, donates a lot of money to Xizhou Mansion every year, many porridge shops, medicine halls and study halls are opened by him, the young man is good-looking and polite."
Bao Zheng and Pang Ji glanced at each other, Bai Yutang is really a strange existence, it is rumored to be a jade-faced Arhat, and this prefect is a jade-faced Bodhisattva when he says it.
Bao Zheng inquired about the case of the Tianshan Sect of the dead.
Mao Dingsheng sighed, "Master Bao, you also know who the people in the Tianshan faction are, it's not that the lower officials don't want to investigate, it's really powerless." ” After that, Bao Zheng asked about the case of Bishuitan Qilin eating people.
For this case, the old prefect seemed to hesitate for a moment, and said, "I don't know what's wrong with this blue water pool, old dead man, say unicorn, many people say that they have seen it, but I have not seen one for more than half a month, and this time there is a floating corpse, and the lower officials still have no clue." ” Bao Zheng asked the old man to take the file in the yamen and he took it back to study, and together with Pang Ji, he rushed to Baiyutang's house with hundreds of people.
In the courtyard of the White House.

Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang, "Is there any clue in the case?"
Bai Yutang shrugged, "I just arrived, and I asked Lu Feng for tea in a while, you can ask, as for Yan Lin and Xu Fei, they don't know how they died."
"That's right."
Zhan Zhao was reminded by him and remembered something, "There are really unicorns in the blue water pool."
Bai Yutang was stunned by what he said, and then smiled, "There have always been legends, but I haven't seen them anyway." ” "Oh," Zhanzhao nodded.
"Because Yan Lin and Xu Fei's bodies were found in Bishuitan, I asked Yue Feng to go to the woods near Bishuitan for a while, if you are curious, go together."
Zhan Zhao raised the corners of his mouth, "Okay." ” As soon as Zhan Zhao agreed, the fourth son immediately raised his hand, "I'll go too" Gongsun also raised his hand, "I'll go too." ” Looking at Zhao Pu and Ouyang behind him, he and the three shadow guards said in unison, "Let's go too" Bao Zheng and Pang Ji, who walked in outside the door, heard it and nodded their heads to show interest, "Let's go together." ” Bai Yutang was also a little helpless, was there something wrong, he had always acted alone, and it was nothing for multiple Zhanzhao, why did he have such a large number of people and dragged his family to bring the old and the young "That's right."
Zhao Pu leaned over and asked Bai Yutang, "Do you have a bigger fishing net?"
Bai Yutang looked at him ungroundedly, "What" "Fishing net" Zhao Pu raised his eyebrows and was full of interest, "Let's go and see if we can catch the unicorn in the afternoon" Zhanzhao couldn't cry or laugh, and asked Zhao Pu, "What are you doing when you caught it?"
"Raise," Zhao Pu replied confidently.
Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao glanced at each other silently, and the fourth son was very supportive of Zhao Pu, "raise" Zhao Pu nodded and palmed him.
Everyone looks at Gongsun, whose child it is, and they don't care Who knew that Gongsun's eyes were shining at this time, and he muttered in a low voice, "I heard that the scales of the unicorn are the most precious medicinal materials."
Everyone looked to heaven and was hopeless In the morning, the accompanying officials and soldiers were also arranged.
The white mansion is spacious and clean, and the maids can also do things, and Bao Zheng is very satisfied.
After lunch, the sun was high and the weather was still a little hot.
Ochre Shadow held the little fourth son, Ziying held a big lotus leaf for him to block the sun, and the group walked to the foot of Bishui Mountain.
Looking up, you can see the towering blue water mountain, the top of the whole mountain is partially covered with snow, and the clouds are also very thick, and there is a feeling of etherealism.
This small Tianshan is so imposing, and the big Tianshan has won everyone's fascination.
Below the top of the mountain, there is a lush green tree cover, in the verdant green, you can see a large area of yellow apricot trees, red maple trees, dotted just right, there are many silver dragon-like waterfalls down the mountain like a fairyland-like wonderland.
"The Tianshan faction is really beautiful."
Gongsun couldn't help but sigh.
"Over there, it's the Blue Water Pool."
Bai Yutang stretched out his hand to point out to everyone the most lush red leaves, and a number of waterfalls could be vaguely seen around the half-moon shape, and the bottom should be the blue water pool.
"Walk from the side, there is a shortcut."
Although Bai Yutang did not appear much in the Tianshan Sect, he was very familiar with the road, and he walked up the mountain with everyone.
Before he reached the halfway point of the mountain, he saw two men coming down from the mountain, not yet thirty years old, one wearing a black sleeved shirt with a black brocade robe, very generous, and the other wearing a linen robe with an eight-treasure belt around his waist and a long knife on his back.
The two hurriedly walked down, and when they saw someone coming up, they seemed quite surprised, but when they saw Bai Yutang walking in front of them, they were both stunned.
Bai Yutang took Zhan Zhao and the others up, and his footsteps did not stop.
When they got closer, the two of them bowed their hands to Bai Yutang slightly, this hand was with a little emotion, it seemed that they were unwilling and seemed to be unwilling, and they could see who Zhan Zhao wanted to connect with "Uncle Shi."
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, this is reluctant, although these two people are not very old, they look much more vicissitudes than Bai Yutang, it is awkward enough to call someone younger than themselves Uncle Shi, and a Uncle Zu has appeared.
Everyone silently glanced at Bai Yutang, and the seniority of your sect was really chaotic.
Bai Yutang didn't seem to be very familiar with them, so he nodded and led everyone to continue walking, looking very cold.
But the two disciples of the Tianshan Sect also seemed to get used to it and continued to descend the mountain.
When the others left, Zhan Zhao asked, "Tianshan faction" Bai Yutang nodded, "I guess." ” "You don't know" Zhan Zhao was shocked.
"It should be one of the top ten masters."
Bai Yutang touched his chin, "I seem to have seen it." ” Everyone's eyes widened, isn't it, except for the head of the Tianshan faction, there are top ten masters, and Bai Yutang doesn't even know it.
Bai Yutang was also quite helpless when he saw everyone's disdainful eyes, "Everyone looks about the same, how can I remember it." ” Everyone's hearts twitched again, and the two who looked very different just now turned out to be almost the same Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes and looked at Bai Yutang's eyes, and said in his heart that these eyes are so good-looking, it can't be that there is some eye disease, and he can't see clearly Bai Yutang saw Zhan Zhao looking at him suspiciously, and also muttered to himself, they all look similar, you think everyone is so easy to remember as if you are.
Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes, Bai Yutang just seemed to have slandered something.
Bai Yutang retracted his thoughts, and wondered why the steps in this place led to the back mountain, and they took a detour to Bishuitan, why did these two people go to Bishuitan from the back mountain:
