Chapter 586: He will be the one to get married next time
Zhao Siqi hid in the corner, looking at the cat that was bigger than the house. It was as majestic as a tiger or leopard, and his heart was beating like a drum.
But from beginning to end, this virtuous son-in-law didn't even look at him. It was obvious that Zhao Siqi was not on his menu.
In comparison, the long-haired dog was more timid, hiding behind Zhao Siqi's legs and not daring to come out.
After the cat disappeared in the wind and snow, a few people peeked out from the darkness and carefully observed the surroundings. When they saw that the cat had disappeared, they appeared in the yard one by one.
The mice transformed into human form, gathered together and whispered to each other, and finally reached a consensus.
"The son-in-law is a filial son-in-law! He has already married the seventeenth girl and taken the master away to enjoy a happy life!"
"Great joy! Great joy! Play music!"
Suddenly, everyone started celebrating again.
The mice were extremely drunk, and the musicians were beating drums and gongs frantically, bang bang bang, very quickly.
After the gray-white rat died, the rat's wife took charge of the big family and became the mistress of the household.
The mistress wiped her tears hypocritically and said, "Today, Xiao Shiqi and the master passed away to follow their uncle. The uncle has a tough life. I'm afraid my poor daughter won't have many days left. Now that Xiao Shiqi is gone, who will marry her next time?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the rats held their breath and dared not speak.
After a while, someone said, "The seventeenth girl is married, and it's time for the eighteenth girl."
The mistress spat and said, "There are only seventeen girls in my family, where did eighteen come from?"
The mice's toes began to twitch restlessly, ready to escape at any time.
At this moment, a mouse suddenly looked towards Zhao Siqi and said, "Isn't there one over here?"
The mistress looked over and exclaimed, "Where did this come from?"
A doorman reported: "He is a passerby, asking for food. The master agreed to let him in."
The mistress's eyes lit up and she said, "Good! Good! Good! That's you!"
Zhao Siqi had already heard that something was wrong, so he turned around and ran out of the yard.
The mistress pointed at his back and said, "Catch him quickly! He will be the one to get married next time!"
Zhao Siqi cursed, "I'm a man! Not a girl!"
But how could these mice care about this?
They knew very well that marrying a cat to a mouse was just a way to deliver food to the door, so as to appease the son-in-law's vicious nature and prevent him from coming to their door and killing people indiscriminately.
The master has married off seventeen daughters. Now that all the daughters are married, he will choose from other mice.
Now there's a stranger who's much more interesting than these rats. If the son-in-law falls in love with this, that would be great!
One after another, huge rats pounced on Zhao Siqi. Zhao Siqi was blocked by two servants in front and pursued by soldiers from behind. He didn't care about anything else. He immediately pulled a bamboo stick from his back, bit his finger, smeared the blood on the bamboo stick, and chanted an incantation, saying: "Destroy evil and slay demons! Pure Yang True Fire! Fast! Fast! Fast!"
The bamboo stick then shone brightly red, and was wrapped in red flames, revealing a very extraordinary aura.
Zhao Siqi wielded his bamboo stick like a sword, stabbing it fiercely at the servants who were blocking his way. The two servants broke free from their human skin, one stretched out his claws to grab the bamboo stick, and the other attacked from the flank.
It's a pity that the Pure Yang True Fire is not to be underestimated, and Zhao Siqi's swordsmanship is also extraordinary. The mouse dared to use its claws to catch the bamboo stick. In just a moment, it was burned by the flames wrapped around the bamboo stick. Crackling, demonic energy surged, and in an instant it turned into a big torch.
The mouse screamed and rolled around in the yard, which stopped many pursuers at once.
Zhao Siqi knocked the rat down with a stick, then immediately turned the stick around and chopped the rat that was attacking from the flank. In an instant, the rat was cut into two pieces and started to burn.
There was hope of escape, so Zhao Siqi rushed to the door and was about to open it to go out, but when he reached out to touch it, the door kept moving farther and farther away and he could never reach it, as if there was a barrier between heaven and earth blocking his way.
"Formation!"
One rat after another pounced in front of him, and the big black rats like a tide submerged Zhao Siqi.
"Get out of here!"
Zhao Siqi waved his bamboo stick, and flames surrounded him, like a fox's tail, wrapping him up in it. This was not pure yang fire, but heart fire.
The fire in their hearts spread out, and in an instant, several large rats were burned, screaming continuously. The fire spread outward along their black hair. In just a moment, these rats retreated in the same way they came, but were blocked by the people behind them, and a huge commotion broke out for a while.
The long-haired dog yelled, "Woof!"
Zhao Siqi looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the long-haired dog had unexpectedly crossed the boundary of the formation and arrived in front of the door.
"Woof!" The long-haired dog invited Zhao Siqi to come over.
Without saying anything, Zhao Siqi tried to walk towards the gate again. This time, it was very smooth. He reached the gate in a few steps, opened the gate, and the man and the dog escaped from the Bai Mansion.
The big rats then rushed out from the gate of Bai Mansion and killed Zhao Siqi.
They rushed towards Zhao Siqi one after another, but when they got close, they found that what was in front of them seemed to be a mountain, not a person.
They looked up and saw Zhao Siqi looking down at them fiercely like a giant.
From Zhao Siqi's perspective, these rats became smaller and smaller as they came out of the gate. When they reached him, they were as big as ordinary rats, but they were stronger than ordinary rats.
Zhao Siqi placed his bamboo stick on the ground, the flames flickering on it. "You want to catch me? I'll beat you!"
The bamboo stick swept left and right, and immediately swept the rats on the road away.
Compared to the son-in-law, the future "bride" has become a greater threat.
The mice were squeaking, and Zhao Siqi could no longer understand what they were saying. He only saw that the mice came quickly and left even faster, sneaking into the gate of the Bai Mansion at an even faster speed, and then with a bang, the door slammed shut.
Zhao Siqi didn't chase after him, but instead reached out and wiped his eyelids.
His eyes also blazed with fire, and when he looked at the White Mansion again, the high black walls immediately collapsed and shrank, revealing its true form. It was no longer a manor house, but a mausoleum.
It was the rats in the tomb that turned into spirits and, coincidentally, led Zhao Siqi into the tomb to witness such a ridiculous scene while a daughter was getting married.
Zhao Siqi calmed down a bit, smiled bitterly, and said, "How come everything happens to me?"
The long-haired dog woofed and looked at him with a pair of wet eyes, full of enthusiasm and affection.
Zhao Siqi rubbed its head fiercely and said, "Let's find a place to shelter from the wind first."
