However, when the other water tribe generals retreated, General Crab and several of his subordinates Yasha returned to the huge copper coffin with serious expressions.

At this moment, the coffin has been closed again, but it was not closed by them, but by themselves. This made the few people beside the coffin deep in thought.

"General, it seems that the most evil thing is this coffin."

"Do your job well. I'll go see the Immortal first. The Immortal will make his own arrangements after this matter is over."

As he spoke, the water tribe dispersed one after another, and the coffin was once again covered in mud. The bottom of the water was really quiet now.

The originally suspicious ghosts and gods on the shore also dispersed. According to normal procedures, the two sides had no control over each other. Since there was nothing wrong in the water, the shore would not pay much attention.

——

Yi Shuyuan did not choose to leave immediately, but kept sitting quietly by the river.

Late at night, a little crab climbed up the shore, ran to Yi Shuyuan's feet, stayed for a while, and then returned to the river.

It was only when it was dark that Yi Shuyuan stood up.

"Sir, please tell me whether I should be credited with a meritorious service. It was I who suggested that you go find the River Water Tribe!"

It seemed that the crisis was over, and Hui Mian was still a little proud now. Everyone could see that the Water God Department in the water had put the night to great use.

"Yes, yes, I will take credit from you."

"Sir, what do you think that corpse is? It's not Feizheng, right?"

Yi Shuyuan looked at the east where the sun was about to rise, and then at the river surface which had returned to normal, recalling the feeling when the floating sword shadow was retracted yesterday.

Although it is lent to General Crab, it actually does not have a strong sense of penetration. On the contrary, the key is the offset between the sword energy itself and the corpse energy.

"I suspect that the thing last night was not real."

"ah?"

Hui Mian obviously hadn't understood Yi Shuyuan's words, but Yi Shuyuan didn't explain too much.

"Don't think too much, just solve it."

After that, Yi Shuyuan glanced at the Thirteenth Floor in the distance again. At this time, it finally became quiet there, and there were no more laughter and screams.

How can you bear it? You don’t even come out to see this?

"Sir, could it be that we made a mistake and it was only the things in the river that caused the trouble?"

Yi Shuyuan glanced over his shoulder.

"There's no need for General Crab to lie to us. Just like that thing in the river, it's not just as simple as leaving some corpse aura on the 13th floor. So the corpse aura is left by something else, rubbing it off the coffin. Come."

Hui Mian nodded. This would prove that the cat demon was more likely to be here.

"Then it is possible that she has run away?"

"That's not clear, but again, a cat is a cat. It will definitely be wary, but it won't give up so easily."

Although he had only interacted with her once, Yi Shuyuan seemed to have seen through the nine-life cat demon. Perhaps it was during that close encounter that he could sense some of her character.

——

The imperial examination was finally over, and some candidates were almost exhausted when they came out of the Gongyuan examination room.

The emotions of anxiety, nervousness and anticipation spread among all the candidates.

There will be a trial release of the results in three days, and there will be a sea of ​​people outside the Gongyuan.

Chu Hang and Yang Bencai squeezed into the crowd and tried their best to check the names on the big list. They looked from the bottom to the top, but their names were not there.

"Alas" "Alas"

The sighs of the two people were drowned in the noise of the crowd. Some people screamed, some cried, and some laughed like crazy.

Many Confucian scholars around him had already gathered around one person and kept congratulating him.

"Brother Shi, congratulations!" "From now on, we will change our name to Brother Shi as Shi Huiyuan!"

"I knew Brother Shi could do it, but I still underestimated Brother Shi!"

"Uh-huh, wow, wow, wow!"

There was a scholar in the crowd who was a little shy and kept returning gifts, but his excitement was beyond words. This person was the number one candidate in this examination, Shi Niandong.

There was a commotion outside the Gongyuan, and some of the Confucian scholars who had failed the exam were preparing to leave in dejection. Some even planned to work hard and live directly in the capital, waiting to come back in a few years.

Every restaurant was overcrowded, and those with the highest rankings were naturally surrounded by people. There were many people celebrating and treating them to guests.

In the restaurant outside Gongyuan, Shi Niandong occupied the main seat, and the people on the table were all famous Confucian scholars.

Dayong had been rectifying the officials a few years ago and was short of a lot of manpower. Nowadays, those who can enter the palace examination are basically equivalent to embarking on an official career, so a group of people here are equivalent to having half a foot in the officialdom.

While pushing cups and changing cups, someone smiled and said to the top of the list.

"Brother Shi, I heard that Miss Lu Xiaoxiao from Yunxiang Pavilion will leave the court tonight. So far, no one has been able to pass the poem pairing test. Brother Shi is unparalleled in his skills. Why not give it a try?"

"Yes, and there has always been a rule in the Thirteenth Floor. If the oiran's first night is captured by Huiyuan, he will not take any money!"

"This is obviously reserved for Brother Shi!" "I heard that Miss Lu Xiaoxiao is beautiful and charming, and she is always thinking about me and other Confucian students taking exams. She must be waiting for the talented people to pick it!"

"Yes, yes, I heard about it too. Brother Shi is very lucky!"

"Even if we really have to collect money, I am willing to support Brother Shi!" "How about Brother Shi taking us to meet the oiran?"

The crowd started to boo, which made Niandong feel excited at the beginning of this meeting.

The float paraded through the streets several times, and Lu Xiaoxiao's figure and melancholy look in her smile have long been engraved in the hearts of many Confucian scholars.

However, most Confucian scholars only dared to think about it, but at this moment, Shi Niandong had gained some confidence and became bolder.

——

In the Thirteenth Floor, a wild cat resting in an attic suddenly opened its eyes. Someone walked up to the attic with small steps, and several other cats around them also got up and walked over.

The person who went upstairs was a young and beautiful woman, holding a bowl of torn boiled chicken in her hand.

When the woman put the bowl down, several cats came over to eat the meat.

The woman squatted aside and watched.

Ever since she dreamed of a cat in her dream more than two years ago, she has often had dreams related to cats. What's even more ridiculous is that in some dreams, she actually saw the cat transform into a beautiful sister.

This sister not only has a good temper, but also helps her get rid of the shame in her heart. She also teaches her to adjust her mentality and manners to inspire her inner desires. Over time, the woman will stand out.

Now that she is at the age of leaving the court, the woman has become famous in the capital. Many talented people and wealthy families are speaking harmoniously to her, like stars holding the moon, giving her an illusion of happiness.

"The rankings will be released today."

Lu Xiaoxiao murmured to himself, filled with daydreams in his heart, thinking that it would be great if the number one could come and spend the night with him. Talented and beautiful people are good stories.

Lu Xiaoxiao herself would not be willing to take advantage of a fat and powerful person in the end. Those people were just playing for fun and could not be sincere.

But the Confucian scholar is different. Lu Xiaoxiao feels that she is beautiful and talented, and she is still perfect. Maybe the gifted high school can redeem herself and lead her out of the fire. Even if she cannot be the first wife, it is better than the foreseeable future.

Moreover, Lu Xiaoxiao felt that with her own abilities, she would definitely be able to please her husband.

This kind of fantasy is irresistible in the woman's heart, even though this kind of thing has almost never happened in so many years.

"Xiaoxiao - Xiaoxiao - where are you? Get ready, the results have been released. I heard that Huiyuan is coming -"

The madam's excited screams came from below.

"ah!"

Lu Xiaoxiao also shouted excitedly and quickly got down from the attic.

After the woman left, the cats were left silently eating meat in the attic.

"Meow~"

The cats all paused for a moment, and a wild cat got in through the gap in the eaves.

The alien cat had a fierce look in its eyes, which scared the other cats away. It walked straight to the bowl of meat, picked up a piece of meat and left. When it reappeared, it was already on the roof.

The gray cat looks towards the Grand Canal, grooms itself and eats meat.

Suddenly, as if there was an electric current passing through, the cat's fur exploded for a moment, and then calmed down again. Its original eyes became more humane and calmed down.

"Meow~"

The meow meowed, neither alarmed nor anxious.

Xuanji had also been worried about the corpse in the coffin before, and would even send a cat into the water every once in a while to make sure the coffin was okay.

However, the situation in the river has not been quite right recently, and no cats have gone down to the river again.

As expected, something happened to the coffin, but I didn't expect that the corpse would be wiped out by the water tribe in the river.

I originally thought about triggering thunder from the sky, and thought about basking in the sun, but they all had hidden dangers. I didn't expect that they were solved unexpectedly.

Xuanji could feel that the coffin had been transported away. This was normal. The Shui tribe found this thing and it would be strange not to take it away, but she was not in a hurry at all.

Since Kaiyang Water God is dead, there is no need to worry even if the coffin is taken away.

"Meow~"

Tonight is when I regain my human body!

Invisible auras flew continuously and gradually integrated into the cat's body.

The cat looked at the river, something like smoke flashed in its eyes, and then it stopped eating the meat and left the roof directly, jumping into the window of a circular corridor of Yunxiang Pavilion with a slight leap.

"Meow~"

The meowing of a cat passing by outside the door suddenly woke up Zhuo Qing, who was resting in the house, with an inexplicable feeling of panic in her heart.

But soon, waves of warmth radiated from her palms, which gradually weakened Zhuo Qing's heart palpitations. She looked down at her palms and remembered the words of the Jianghu guest.

With this feeling of panic, is there really a monster in the building?

Zhuo Qing covered her chest with her right palm, as if this would make her feel more at ease.

The beauty hall tonight is destined to be extremely lively, and more girls will be needed to accompany her. Zhuo Qing has no choice but to get up and fix her makeup. Her pipa music is also very famous. She used to be famous for her beauty, but tonight she is just One of the foils.

Under the heat in her body, Zhuo Qing's hangover from last night was much lessened, and her head was no longer so painful. She couldn't help but think about that charlatan again. Why did he stop coming? Is it because he had no money?

Just as I was putting on my makeup, a sister suddenly called at the door.

"Sister Zhuo, there is a guest who wants you to go, it's the Dragon Warrior!"

Surprise appeared on Zhuo Qing's face and she rushed to the door.

"He's here? Where is he?"

The sisters outside smiled.

"We were at the waterside pavilion last time. It was probably at night again. I really envy my sister. I don't have to go to the beauty hall at night! Seeing my sister so happy, isn't Jiang Hu Ke's ability particularly good, especially his skill?"

"What a mouthful!"

Zhuo Qing had a little fun with her sisters, then went back to dress up more carefully before leaving in a hurry.

Entering the Shuixie room, Yi Shuyuan was already here.

"Dragon Hero!"

Zhuo Qing looked happy. Although she knew it was just her fantasy, why should she restrain herself?

Yi Shuyuan performed a fist-cup salute.

"Miss Zhuo, Mr. Long is here to disturb you again."

"Dragon Master, won't he not bring enough money this time?"

Obviously compared to the last time, Zhuo Qing was more relaxed from the beginning. Yi Shuyuan also showed some embarrassment when he heard her teasing.

"It must be enough this time, but something may happen here today. Mr. Long is here to get rid of the demon. I hope Miss Zhuo can help me."

Zhuo Qing looked curious.

"Then what should I do?"

Yi Shuyuan thought for a moment and looked at Zhuo Qing seriously.

"Miss Zhuo, just don't scream out in surprise for a while!"

Zhuo Qing stared blankly at Yi Shuyuan. The Dragon Warrior looked at her very seriously, his eyes fixed on her, and occasionally scanning her body, which made her heart beat faster and she was at a loss.

Yi Shuyuan felt Zhuo Qing's aura and her obvious affection for him, as if he could feel the ups and downs of her mood.

At this moment, Yi Shuyuan had no distracting thoughts in his mind. If he had caught the cat demon and had the thought of understanding the secret of its nine lives, then at this moment, it was more like he was playing a game with the cat demon and himself again.

Multitasking expands your path.

It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul. Through Zhuo Qing's eyes, the tension and expectation gradually penetrated into Yi Shuyuan's heart.

"The spring breeze is incomprehensible, the feelings are hard to disappear, there is a lot of laughter, a little bit of melancholy, a startling glance, and life is like a dream."

As if he was speaking to himself or to Zhuo Qing, as Yi Shuyuan whispered, a faint light appeared on his face, and his figure looked like water and light in Zhuo Qing's eyes.

Zhuo Qing gradually opened her eyes wide, and then covered her mouth that was opened in shock with both hands. The Dragon Warrior in front of her actually looked like her, but the clothes were still the same mysterious shirt.

"Dragon Hero, you"

Zhuo Qing was so shocked that she was even a little scared and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Yi Shuyuan was actually equally astonished. He subconsciously touched his cheek and felt the delicate touch.

This is not an illusion, this is an evil transformation!

Done! Am I doing it again?

I haven't caught the cat demon yet!
