Chapter 44: Rat Friends(1/2)
I was so excited about ordering tofu last night that everyone got up late the next morning and slept comfortably.
Even Duan Fei, who usually goes to bed early and gets up early and has a regular schedule, slept for half an hour.
Not to mention the strong man, his two reinforced concrete pillar-like thighs were holding the quilt tightly, and the saliva from his half-open mouth soaked a large area of the pillow, and he would giggle "haha" from time to time in his sleep.
After washing up, Duan Fei got angry when he saw Zhuangzi sleeping. Duan Fei suddenly grabbed the quilt between Zhuangzi's legs and shook it hard. Zhuangzi was lifted up completely and fell heavily on the ground.
I rolled around twice on the bed.
Zhuangzi was so angry that his dream was disturbed. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, pointed at Duan Fei's nose and cursed: "Duan Fei, are you sick? You want to get up early and be your ascetic. There is no one."
I'm stopping you, but don't disturb my sleep practice. Besides, I don't have much to do today, what can I do if I sleep a little longer?"
"I'm doing this all for your own good. Only those who have restraint on their own work and rest can control the dark side of their souls and calibrate the detours of life.
The famous educator Ushinsky said it well, 'If you develop good habits, you will never be able to enjoy the interest it brings to you throughout your life; if you develop bad habits, you will repay endless debts throughout your life.
'" Duan Fei said loudly and in a cadence.
"Oh, let's go, Duan Fei. This is what annoys me the most about you. You always shake your book bag with me. I'm telling you clearly, Mr. Zhuang, I have plenty of money. If I don't miss that little interest, I can't afford to pay off any bullshit debt."
Zhuangzi sat there changing his clothes and made a face at Duan Fei while talking.
"Hey, are you treating me like a donkey with good intentions?" Duan Fei shouted angrily.
"Okay, okay, you've only known our strong man for a day or two. You haven't seen enough of his strange outlook on life." Zhuo Zhan patted Duan Fei on the shoulder and said goodbye.
Then he turned to look at Zhuangzi: "Zhuang, what were you doing in your sleep just now, making us both think you were going to become immortals."
The strong man twisted his thick waist and started to put on his clothes: "Hey, it's not like I dreamed about the college entrance examination."
"Damn it, you could still laugh when you dreamed about the college entrance examination. You really have a strange outlook on life." Duan Fei looked at Zhuangzi sideways like he was looking at a monster.
"Hey, I haven't said anything yet, why are you blind? I dreamed about the college entrance examination. Our city education bureau held an event. Every score above 500 was reduced by 300. I scored 499 and became the top scholar! Haha.
Haha..." Zhuangzi laughed intoxicatedly.
"Let me go, not only do you have a wonderful outlook on life, but you also have a very strange brain circuit. Oh no, you don't have a wonderful brain circuit, you have a short-circuited brain circuit! You are an evil capitalist, and you are worthy of the smell of copper.
Big brother, if you don't take over the mantle of your parents, your reincarnated soul, Tao Zhu Gong, will be in vain." Duan Fei said sarcastically.
Zhuo Zhan suppressed his smile, wiped the corners of his eyes, pointed out the window and said, "Stop talking here and learning to sing. They have already brought out breakfast. Let's go and eat."
"Hey, the three snail girls also prepared breakfast, not bad." Zhuangzi looked at the breakfast on the table and was already gearing up.
"We also overslept. Mother Lu made this breakfast. Seeing that we were all asleep, she kept it warm in the pot. Mother Lu and Uncle Lu went to supervise the work in the bean mill in front." Jiang Xueyan said.
"Hey, Mother Lu is really kind, just like my mother...oh, no, just like my grandma, very kind. However, having so many of us here to disturb Mother Lu for so many days is really hard on Mother Lu.
"Zhuangzi muttered with his mouth full of red bean paste cakes.
"Brother Zhuang, if you usually work more and are diligent, you are better than anything else. Madam Lu doesn't care if you show off your words here." Duan Yue scolded, broke open a piece of bean dregs cake and handed it to Duan Fei.
half.
The strong man immediately felt like a big cock that had its neck strangled, and stopped making any sound.
"Hey, by the way, brother Zhuo Zhan, didn't you get the map stone yesterday? Have you checked where your next destination is?"
Chi asked with his cheeks puffed up, his hands kept groping Xiaogu who was immersed in eating, and his two black grape-like eyes stared at Zhuo Zhan.
"Can he still read it? The first thing he does when he comes back is to ask me for a road map." Zhuangzi interrupted.
"Well, son, I just wanted to ask you. Our next destination is Danxue Mountain. Whose fiefdom is this Danxue Mountain under? Is it an independent city-state?" Zhuo Zhan put down the soy milk bowl in his hand and looked towards
red.
"Ah! Ah!"
Chideng immediately jumped up, and the small bench she had been sitting on was kicked far away. She shook her braids with her two little hands and jumped up and down with joy. Excitement and surprise were all written on her face.
"The place you are going to next is Danxue Mountain? Is it really Danxue Mountain?"
"Yes, yes, it's Danxue Mountain. What's wrong?"
Zhuo Zhan looked confused and had no idea what was going on. He liked to think about people, but sometimes he really couldn't think about this girl Touchi.
"Danxue Mountain is neither anyone's fiefdom, nor an independent city-state or tribe, but the training palace of my master, the Fire God Zhu Rong." Chi said happily after finally calming down.
"You can't go up to Danxue Mountain without a fire avoidance order. As a disciple of the God of Fire, my aunt has a fire avoidance order here. Please, I will go to Danxue Mountain with you."
With a bright face, she looked at Zhuo Zhan arrogantly. She was worried that Leng Lingguo couldn't find an excuse to continue following Zhuo Zhan and the others. Now she got lucky. An excuse came to her door. Wasn't it God's will or something.
"Okay, okay, my sister-in-law, can you please accompany us for a walk?"
Zhuo Zhan was obviously overjoyed and followed Chi's request, his eyes full of doting.
"Ah, hiss, hiss," Zhuangzi couldn't help but trembled exaggeratedly, "I said you two are too stupid. It's up to you and me to have breakfast happily."
Zhuo Zhan and Chi smiled at each other and said nothing. They lowered their heads almost at the same time and continued eating breakfast, so that no one could see their respective expressions.
Zhuangzi's words were spoken without intention but by intention.
Both Duan Fei and Duan Yue's emotions were a little subtle.
Duan Yue stared deeply at Zhuo Zhan and Chi, who were engrossed in eating, with complicated expressions and mixed emotions.
Duan Fei looked at his infatuated sister with a sad face and anxious thoughts.
Jiang Xueyan glanced at the expressions on everyone's faces, and shook her head helplessly and smiled like a person who had been there.
She stood up and brought the clay pot containing soy milk, and deliberately broke the slightly embarrassing situation loudly: "Hey, there is a lot of soy milk here. It will be broken by noon if you don't drink it all. Who wants it? Come on, one spoon for each person.
, share it all, drink it all.”
**********
The busy Doufang in the front seems to have nothing to do with the quiet courtyard in the back. The front yard is very busy, but the back yard is quiet and quiet.
Everyone sat on small horses and formed a circle in the middle of the yard.
Zhuo Zhan held the map of the palace city compiled by Duan Yue in one hand, and a small branch in the other hand to draw on the sand.
Zhuo Zhan stared at the map of the outskirts of the palace city that he roughly drew on the sand, frowned, and thought for a long time before speaking slowly:
"Judging from the intelligence collected, there are a lot of guards at the four gates in the southeast and northwest. On the day of the White Sun Festival, although some troops will be deployed to the river embankment to maintain order and protect the royal family, if we attack them head-on, we won't be able to occupy them.
No matter how cheap it is, it’s hard to say whether you can get in through this gate.”
Duan Fei raised his shoulders and shook his legs, pointing to the palace gate in the north: "This gate in the north is obviously the closest to the shrine and dungeon, but opposite is the back wall of the official post, and there is no place to block it. How many of us can we do?
If this person appears there, it will definitely look very abrupt, and it will be taken down in a matter of minutes."
"Then go farther and enter through this gate." Zhuo Zhan pointed at the west palace gate with a small branch.
"Although this place is far away from the shrine, there is a commercial area opposite. We won't be discovered if we mix in there, and it will be easier to disguise ourselves. We can disguise ourselves as different vendors, distract the guards, and defeat them all."
Duan Fei frowned and said with a sad face: "But even if Ximen goes in, it is too far to go to the dungeon. If the guards in the palace hear the sound of Ximen fighting, they will definitely hear the sound and rush over. They are afraid that we will
Before reaching the dungeon, he was disintegrated and captured."
"There's nothing we can do about it. It's better to get in than not to get in. As for what happens next, we can just deal with it. My freezing witchcraft and your hardening, we have to plan it carefully. Let's see.
Let's see how we can break out of the siege as quickly as possible." Zhuo Zhan sighed, feeling a little worried in his heart.
"Hey, I said you two, don't forget my nephew's claws. One is against ten!" Zhuangzi didn't show any weakness.
Since he mastered his nephew's witchcraft power, this habit of shrinking back seems to have gradually gone away from him.
"Your witchcraft power is suitable for close combat. We must fight quickly in the palace and never be reluctant to fight, so it is better to let me and Duan Fei take action. You can break out as soon as possible. When you reach the dungeon, the space is narrow and claustrophobic, and it is time for you to show off your magical powers.
It's time." Zhuo Zhan saw that Zhuangzi was in high spirits, so he added another handful of firewood.
"When the time comes, you three ladies, please don't be blinded by my heroic appearance. I'm not bragging, I'm so handsome and scumbag. You have to step aside when Daniel Wu comes."
A strong man does not need to be praised, but if Zhuo Zhan praises him with a few words, he will become light-headed again.
"Oh, you're fat and you're out of breath. Don't call me to save you when you're completely bald." Duan Fei teased.
"Just lift it up, we won't be sure who will save the other then!" Zhuangzi curled his lips disdainfully.
Zhuo Zhan looked at Duan Yue, who was looking down at the ground. He thought for a moment and was about to speak but immediately held back. After thinking about it again, he slowly said, "Xiao Yue?"
"Huh?" When Duan Yue heard Zhuo Zhan calling her, he straightened up immediately and his eyes were as big as a bell.
"I wanted to ask you before. If you practice eye power with Yu Chun, the great wizard, your eyes of the underworld will definitely improve. I want to know how advanced you can be now?"
Duan Yue said with a smile: "After practicing and concentrating some time ago, my pupil power can now reach a radius of 100 meters without any problems, but I can't do the directional tracking and magnification that the master said."
"That's enough." Zhuo Zhan was very surprised, "I need you to search for Xiu'er's specific location as soon as possible after entering the dungeon, so that we can avoid taking the wrong path in the dungeon and grasp the enemy as soon as possible.
Strengthen your troops and find a way out."
"Hmm, I'll practice concentration these days and extend the use time of my pupil power as much as possible. Brother Zhuo Zhan, don't worry!" Duan Yue responded positively.
Although she was responding with her mouth at this time, her mind was full of recollection of Zhuo Zhan's words just now, "I need you... I need you... I need you..."
Although this is extremely rampant and out of context, Duan Yue doesn't think so herself. She is only happy with the happiness she feels.
However, what made her happier than saying "I need you" was that she loudly called out "Brother Zhuo Zhan" in front of Chi, which was equivalent to stating that this title was not exclusive to Chi.
But what made her happier than shouting "Brother Zhuo Zhan" was that Zhuo Zhan only reminded her specifically when making arrangements, and did not say a single word to Chi.
The combination of so much happiness was enough for her to be immersed in girlish happiness and joy for a whole day.
