Chapter 33

  The sky has completely darkened.

  However, Nie Xiaohong still did not wake up.

  Wang Gan's patience is wearing thin.

  "Miss Pang, this Nie Xiaohong is indeed a serious case. I, the official, cannot continue to wait for her to wake up naturally. We must think of a way to make her come around. The official asks you."

  Lü Xiaofeng immediately expressed his agreement, "Commander Wang's words make sense, but what method will you use?"

  Bai Yutang quietly raised an eyebrow, he hadn't expected Lu Xiaofeng to agree with Wang Gan's proposal. However, it seemed that he had never been able to guess her reaction accurately either.

  "Come and fetch water from the well."

  On a hot day, splashing a cool well water all over your body is really an effective way to relieve the heat!

  Three big buckets of water were poured down, apart from getting Nie Xiaohong soaked, she didn't show any signs of waking up.

  Wang Gannan was extremely puzzled. Nie Xiaohong wasn't hit by a knockout point, and there were no external injuries on her body, so why did she fall into a coma?

  Thinking of this, Wang Gan couldn't help but stretch out his hand towards Nie Xiaohong.

  "Wang Tongling, what are you trying to do?" Little Phoenix Maiden had an opinion about that salty pig hand.

  "This official wants to see if she has suffered some serious internal injuries."

  Lu Xiaofeng had Xiao He take a cloak and cover Nie Xiao Hong's body with it, then handed one of her hands over to Wang Gan.

  After feeling the pulse, Wang Gan's eyebrows furrowed even tighter. There was indeed an internal injury, but it shouldn't be severe enough to cause someone to fall into a coma... Unbelievable!

  "White Jade Hall, did you have anything to do with this?" Wang Gan couldn't help but interrogate the calmly observing Jinmao Mouse beside him.

  Bai Yutang snorted and said with a sarcastic tone, "General Wang, my reputation as the White Five of Empty Island wasn't earned for nothing. How could I possibly resort to such despicable tactics?"

  "How can she still be unconscious until now?"

  "Master Wu wouldn't know," Bai Yutang paused for a moment, then continued: "However, when Master Wu captured her, she swallowed a pill, probably fearing that she couldn't withstand the torture and would reveal information."

  Wang's face turned red with anger, "Damn it."

  The sword was drawn from its scabbard, "Please be careful with your words, Commander Wang."

  "This official is not talking about you, but this female thief's mind is surprisingly so deep."

  Bai Yutang glanced at someone with the corner of his eye and thought: The one who came up with this idea is him, not the one who's unconscious.

  "Bai Yutang, you're also a well-known figure in the Jianghu, yet you've stooped to colluding with government officials and using such despicable tactics against a young girl."

  Bai Yutang's face sank, and he shouted: "Yue Tianchou, you don't know the cause and effect, don't come up and talk nonsense with a red mouth and white teeth."

  Yue Tianchou floated gently down in front of the crowd, his hands clasped behind his back, and sneered: "What Yue saw with his own eyes, could it be fake?"

  Wang Gan Yi saw Yue Tian Chou and directly asked, "You've come at just the right time, where's the Qing Long Pearl?"

  "Big brother, for a single pearl, you would thus abandon the code of the Jianghu?"

  Bai Yutang's face showed surprise, "He is your senior brother?"

  Yue Tian said: "Exactly."

  Wang Gan said, "I don't have a junior brother like you. Stealing treasures from the palace is a serious crime. You're an accomplice for helping this female thief. If you can hand over the Qinglong Pearl in time, I might be able to plead for leniency on your behalf as your senior brother and fellow disciple. But if you persist in your obstinacy, don't blame me for being heartless."

  "I didn't take the Qinglong Pearl." Yue Tianyou said so.

  "Yue Tianchou, are you really so obstinately ignorant?"

  Yue Tian said: "I say I didn't take it, and that's exactly what I mean. I came here just to ask Brother Shifu to release Niece Nie."

  "Is it worth it for a woman, Yue Tianchou?"

  "It's worth it or not, I know in my heart, so no need to bother you."

  Taking advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, Yue Tianchou launched a sudden attack on Lu Xiaofeng.

  Bai Yutang and the guards of the Pang Mansion rushed to rescue them at the first time.

  Taking advantage of the chaos, Yue Tianchou picked up Nie Xiaohong, who was unconscious, into his arms.

  "Yue Tianchou——" Wang Dang was furious.

  Yue Tianchou nimbly dodged Wang Gan's attack, and with a swift kick, he sent a table in his direction. Seizing the opportunity while Wang was evading, Yue swept up Nie Xiaohong and leapt out of the window.

  Pursue.

  Wang Gan and his men chased after them directly.

  "Miss, are you okay?"

  "It's all right now." Lu Xiaofeng comfortingly patted the shoulder of his young apprentice.

  Bai Yutang smiled and said: "How is your family's young lady doing?" Everything went according to plan, but it was unknown whether Wang Gan would be so angry that he would vomit blood if he knew the truth.

  Pang Yu looked at his own sister and then at a certain white mouse, feeling that something was off.

  "Miss, aren't you going to follow and take a look?" You've designed this whole play, it would be a pity if you didn't watch it yourself.

  Lu Xiaofeng smiled slightly and said: "Watching a play, just catching the right scene is enough, no rush."

  "Then you won't be afraid of missing out?" Bai Yutang asked with a hint of teasing.

  It turned out that Lu Xiaofeng said: "If you miss it, then you miss it. Life is just passing by in countless misses."

  Bai Yutang seemed to have an epiphany.

  Miss?

  Suddenly, Bai Yutang burst out laughing loudly and said it was really great!

  Lu Xiaofeng glared at him, what's gotten into you, White Mouse?

  Pang Yu frowned.

  "Lu Xiao Feng." Bai Yu Tang suddenly called out her full name.

  "Huh?"

  Bai Yutang grasped one of her hands tightly, his eyes shining brightly and the corners of his mouth curving upwards as he said, "Let's become sworn siblings."

  "Ah?" Little Phoenix was completely bewildered by a certain mouse.

  "We're sworn brothers." Bai Yutang repeated loudly and firmly.

  "Are you sick?" Lu Xiaofeng thought of kicking him, but didn't kick him. "Why should I be sworn brothers with you?" If I'm sworn brothers with a mouse, wouldn't I become a mouse too?

  Absolutely not!

  "Heaven is above, earth is below, I Bai Yutang and Lu Xiaofeng become sworn siblings of different surnames..."

  Lu Xiaofeng was pulled to the ground by Bai Xiaowu, unable to get up, unable to shake him off, and anxiously stared with wide eyes, "Bai Yutang, I told you, don't make a sworn brotherhood with me."

  Everyone was stunned, and no one had expected such a twist.

  Was it he who made a mistake, or was it Bai Yutang who took the wrong medicine?

  "Pang Yu, you're dead! Hurry up and let him go, I'd rather be crazy than make friends with a mere mouse..."

  Bai Yutang exerted a bit of force on her hand, and Xiao Feng's body lost control and she fell forward, shouting "Pang Yu..."

  Pang Yu: "......"

  Crowd: "......"

  Xiaohe: *silence*

  "Bai Xiaowu, I've never seen anyone as shameless as you, forcing others to become sworn brothers with you. You're really opening my eyes."

  The onlookers silently agreed with him.

  "Uncle Five, where am I not qualified enough to be sworn brothers with you?"

  "Whether I'm qualified or not and whether I want to or not are two different things." My sister was already forced to become a nominal daughter of the Peng family, which is already a huge blow. Now she's being forced by you, a despicable old mouse, to form a fraternal bond with some dog-farting, surname-changing brother - what kind of moral character does one need to have to encounter such twisted things?!

  "In that case, I don't care. From now on, you are my sworn sister, Jin Maosou Bai Yutang's sworn sister, and also the sworn big brother of my four brothers."

  " Bah." Lu Xiaofeng, who had just regained his freedom, was furious. "Are you sick or am I? As the adopted daughter of the Grand Tutor and a member of the imperial family, how could I be sworn sisters with a white mouse like you who is notorious for opposing the Peng family, not to mention your four brothers? Isn't this the biggest joke in the world?"

  Pang Yu couldn't agree more.

  "This sworn brotherhood doesn't count, I don't acknowledge it." Little Phoenix Maiden declared angrily.

  Pang Yu nodded, and I didn't admit it either.

  The third sister has sworn brotherhood with this old mouse, isn't that saying he also has to call this annoying mouse "brother"?

  Absolutely not!

  Bai Yutang sat down at a table, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it calmly, saying: "As long as Fifth Master recognizes him, that's all that matters, whether you recognize him or not."

  "This is simply forced buying and selling."

  "What's going on? Did Fifth Master force someone to buy or sell something?"

  I didn't know White Xiao Wu was so bold.

  "I can't do anything to you, but don't dream that I'll call you 'brother', absolutely impossible, stinky old mouse."

  "Swearing an oath is just a formality, you can call me whatever you like."

  "You must have taken the wrong medicine." Little Phoenix concluded.

  "Pang Yu, come here." I finally remembered that I still had to find another person to settle accounts with.

  "Brother, I was just too surprised and didn't react in time."

  Guard: We are too.

  Xiaohe: It can't be better than this.

  Little Phoenix slammed her hand on the table, causing the teapot to shake twice. "Not reacting in time is also your fault! How could you let me be dragged away by someone under your nose? Fortunately, it was just a sworn brotherhood; if it were a real marriage, would that have been okay?"

  Pang Yusen said: If it's a matter of stopping the engagement at all costs, then you're not losing out either. With your personality that likes to run around everywhere, having the background of the Five Rats of Trap Island can actually increase your safety level.

  Bai Yutang, who was drinking tea, was choked by the tea. This girl is really too reckless and also too outspoken.

  "Go die, there's nothing more unreliable than this."

  Bai Yutang struggled to cough...

  Xiao He looked at Bai Yutang with some sympathy, really not understanding what wind Bai Daxia had caught to want to be sworn brothers with her family's young lady, wasn't this just looking for trouble?

  Xiaohe, you've revealed another ugly truth!

  Bai Yutang didn't go with her to scold him, after thinking it through he now felt completely relaxed and comfortable all over.

  After becoming sworn brothers with her, if she marries Xiao Mao in the future, then he will be Xiao Mao's fifth elder brother. Just thinking about it feels great!

  But Bai Wu Ye forgot, this sworn sister is of a vicious level, before he can enjoy the pleasure of teasing a little cat, he will first be abused by her to the point of being on the verge of life and death.

  Amen!

  God bless him!

  "No way, this tone, I can't swallow it." Little Phoenix got angrier as she thought about it, and slapped the table again, grinding her teeth and saying, "Pang Yu, you go beat him up for me."

  "Pang Yu said bluntly: 'Sister, I'm afraid we're no match for him.'"

  "It's nothing, I'm now forced to be sworn brothers with him, aren't I? He wouldn't dare hurt you guys, if he did, that would be disowning his own family, heartless, ruthless and cruel..."

  "Hey, miss, do you want to add so many charges against me?" It's going too far.

  "Who are you calling sister?" Little Feng was annoyed.

  "Ah, Lu Xiaofeng."

  "Don't run." Lu Xiaofeng directly grabbed the teapot on the table and smashed it over.

  Not running is stupid.

  To describe Bai Yutang's actions with a vivid adjective, it would be - fleeing in disarray!
