Chapter 8: The Loss of the Magic Sword

  "From now on, the six of us will be sworn brothers, we don't ask to be born in the same year, month and day, but we wish to die in the same year, month and day!"

  Six people shouted in unison, finished their oath, exchanged a few glances, burst out laughing, and Bai Yutang coldly smiled and gave Zhan Zhao a glance.

  Zhan Zhao, however, had some thoughts in his mind. It seemed that in his past life, he used to watch TV or something, and it was always about the "Seven Heroes and Five Gallants". The "Five Gallants" referred to the five old mice in front of him. So, adding himself to the mix, what would this make? Was he supposed to become one of the "Six Heroes and Six Gallants"?

  This deserted island has really become an animal den. One cat, five mice... and that cat seems to be me...

  "Which Southern Hero is this!?" Lu Fang burst out laughing, "It seems we need to line up in order of seniority among these brothers!"

  Zhan Zhao was taken aback, his forehead beaded with cold sweat!

  How do we know how old Zhan Zhao is? We don't have any memories of Zhan Zhao, and when watching TV dramas, no one has ever mentioned how old Zhan Zhao is!

  How do we know?

  After some thought, Zhan Zhao smiled slightly and said, "Alright, I'll reveal my age from the previous life. Anyway, judging by this body's age, it should be about the same as my previous life's age." Zhan Zhao clasped his fists together and said, "I, Zhan, am twenty-four years old this year!"

  Everyone nodded, and a sharp glint flashed in Bai Yutang's eyes. Lu Fang said, "So, Zhan Zhao is fifth, as for Fifth Brother, you are now Sixth Brother!"

  Bai Yutang coldly snorted, "Cat, did you know that Fifth Master is older than me by one year and deliberately said so? Don't think I'll call you brother!"

  "Fourth brother, don't be reckless!" Lu Fang said with a stern expression!

  Zhan Zhao waved his hand and continued, "Never mind, Bai Yutang is straightforward and honest. To be frank, you five have already gotten used to each other's titles, how can I, Zhan, possibly join in?"

  "Let's just keep our titles as they are, I'll still call you guys Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother. As for me and Bai Yutang, we'll just see about the title!" Xian Zhao saw Bai Yutang's expression, shook his head, and smiled lightly. Although Bai Yutang looked like this, since they had already sworn brotherhood, if anything happened, Bai Yutang would definitely fight to the death to help!

  "As for a few of you brothers, just call me Zhan Zhao!" Zhan Zhao smiled!

  Lu Fang and others looked at each other in dismay, Jiang Ping smiled and said, "Since we have already sworn brotherhood, how can we directly call you Zhan Zhao? However, what Nan Xia said is right, the five of us are used to calling each other by our names. Why don't we just call you Brother Zhan from now on?"

  Lu Fang and others also agreed with the title, Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "Well, let's call it that then!"

  Everyone laughed, and Zhan Zhao suddenly remembered that his main purpose for coming here was to find the Shangfang Treasure Sword. How could he have forgotten about the most important thing?!

  Zhan Zhao hastily asked, "Everyone, where is the Shangfang treasure sword?"

  Lu Fang smiled and said, "Second brother, third brother, go to the warehouse and get that Shangfang treasure sword. Fourth brother, fifth brother, you stay here and teach Xuan brother the basic internal skill transmission method first. I'll go find your sister-in-law and have her prepare dinner. Tonight, we brothers will not return until we're drunk!"

  "Good!" Han Zhang Xu Qing smiled and turned around to leave!

  Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao and snorted, saying, "Cat, now sit cross-legged and focus your mind, Fifth Master will teach you!"

  Zhan Zhao let out a soft sigh and smiled, "Thanks, Bai!"

  You white-haired rat, just wait until I've finished cultivating and see if I won't beat you until your teeth are scattered all over the ground!

  Jiang Ping took a look at Bai Yutang, then looked at Zhan Zhao, and let out a faint sigh in his heart. His fifth brother was good in every way, but he liked to find trouble. It seemed that the days after meeting Zhan Zhao wouldn't be so peaceful!

  "Concentrate your spirit and guard your breath, sink your will into your elixir field, and let your breath follow your will!"

  Zhan Zhao suddenly opened his eyes and said, "So, Bai Haozi, no, Brother Bai, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"

  "Pfft......" Jiang Ping, who was sitting in a chair drinking tea, directly spat out the tea!

  Bai Yutang's face was filled with astonishment, and he said foolishly, "Hey, stinky cat, you didn't do that on purpose, did you?"

  Zhan Zhao was stunned and speechless, saying "We really can't do it!"

  How could we intentionally deceive you? We really don't know, although in our past life as a lawyer, we also studied forensic science. Forensic science explains the human body structure in detail, so we do understand some things about acupoints and the eight extraordinary meridians. However, what you're saying is too mysterious, we really don't know how to do it!

  "Stinky cat!" Bai Yutang's face turned somewhat furious, and he let out a long roar. "I want to duel with you!"

  Jiang Ping's face turned black as coal, he supported his forehead with his hand, and was shocked speechless!

  Suddenly, a clear and crisp female voice rang out, "Is this really Mikado no Neko Shō!?"

  Zhan Zhao turned his head to look, and saw a woman walking in, about thirty years old, wearing a light green embroidered robe with flowers, her feet clad in emerald-green embroidered shoes, her hair styled in a butterfly bun, an oval face, vermilion lips, and between her eyebrows, a hint of heroic spirit was faintly visible!

  Behind him was another person, who was none other than Lu Fang!

  Zhan Zhao understood in his heart that this person was definitely Mrs. Lu of the Lu family village, and hastily got up, clasped his fists and said, "Zhan Zhao has seen elder sister-in-law!"

  Madam Lu smiled lightly, "Nan Xia is indeed Nan Xia, with a heroic spirit and broad mind. It's hard to find someone like him, much better than some petty-minded person!" Madam Lu said while glancing at Bai Yutang!

  Bai Yutang's handsome face suddenly became somewhat unsightly!

  Zhan Zhao hastily said, "I don't dare to accept your praise, Big Sister!" But in his heart, he was crying and laughing at the same time. It seemed that they had never met before, but Lu Furen's words were already so flattering... Okay, fine, Zhan Zhao did indeed have a handsome and elegant appearance, but that wasn't the point! The point was that he had a broad mind... Please, we just met, how did you see that I have a broad mind?!

  "I heard you just made sworn brothers with these five mice!?" Madame Lu gave a cold glance at Bai Yutang, Jiang Ping and Lu Fang, saying "That's just like family, sit down, sit down. I heard you've lost your memory, come, let me take your pulse!"

  Zhan Zhao was taken aback for a moment, this, this is really familiar...

  Zhan Zhao stretched out his wrist according to Lu's words, and Madame Lu gently shook her slender fingers, furrowed her brow in thought, stood up, shook her head and said, "Can't find anything, can't see what's wrong, anyway Nan Xia's body is very healthy now..."

  "It seems it's an aftereffect of the poisoning back then, I should be able to remember in a while!" Madam Lu said with a smile.

  Lu Fang and others all nodded!

  Suddenly, a figure rushed in, Xu Qing rushed in abruptly, the voice was as loud as a bell, deafening, but slightly changed tone!

  "Oh no! Big brother, the Shangfang treasure sword is gone! The two people guarding the Shangfang treasure sword are dead!" Xu Qing shouted loudly, his voice somewhat shrill.

  Zhan Zhao suddenly stood up with a start, and Bai Yutang and others also changed their expressions. At the same time, they flashed out of the room!

  Zhan Zhao's heart stirred, a stream of energy automatically surged from his dantian to his legs, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, he took a step forward, and in an instant transformed into a red shadow, darting out three zhang away!

  Then, it suddenly stopped, damn it, this Lightness Skill was so useful just now, and now it's useless again...

  Helpless, Zhan Zhao confirmed the direction that Bai Yutang and others had rushed to earlier, and then he opened his pace, running directly towards that direction at a speed of 100 meters per second!

  Mrs. Na looked at Zhan Zhao rushing out, her eyes lit up, and muttered to herself, "The Southern Hero's lightness skill is really good-looking, but isn't it said that his martial arts have been half-ruined? What's going on?"

  Then, Zhan Zhao ran out with his legs spread apart, and Madame Lu was instantly petrified.

  "Is this Nan Xiaozhao? Indeed, just as Fuhuang said, his martial arts skills are half-ruined. It seems that he can't even use his lightness skill anymore... Truly, it's a case of being effective at times and ineffective at others..."

  Zhan Zhao was greatly alarmed in his heart. Damn it! How could he lose something again in the bandit's lair? And to make matters worse, they had even stolen the Shangfang Treasure Sword!

  The warehouse of the Lu Family Village on the Island of Empty Space, although not having any rare treasures or precious objects, also had some valuable items such as gold and silver. Therefore, this warehouse was also a forbidden area, with doors and windows tightly locked, guarded by the Five Rats, whose reputation was well-known outside, so naturally those small thieves in the jianghu would not dare to have designs on the Island of Empty Space!

  So, the Shangfang treasure sword was placed on the Trap Empty Island, it's naturally considered to be completely safe, and Zhan Zhao wouldn't worry about it at all. But now, this Shangfang treasure sword is actually lost, how is that possible!?

  Zhan Zhao rushed in a hurry, and suddenly someone pounced out from behind him. It was Xu Qing. He directly grabbed Zhan Zhao and used his lightness skill to rush towards the warehouse!

  Dai Zhan's arrival at the warehouse found Lu Fang, Han Zhang, Jiang Ping and Bai Yutang already standing there!

  Several people stood respectfully beside him, and the middle-aged man looked like he was trembling slightly, clearly due to being frightened!

  Lu Fang and others saw two people lying on the ground, one of whom was covered in blood, with a pale face that had turned greenish, not a single thread of red color, with a deep hole in his chest, surrounded by blurred flesh and blood!

  Another person's head had exploded entirely, with brain matter mixed with blood splattered all over their body!

  Zhan Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and he took a deep breath!

  Lu Fang came back to his senses and looked at Zhan Zhao, saying, "Brother Zhan, sorry, the Shangfang treasure sword is gone!"

  "But it's the older brother who owes an apology to his younger brother!" Lu Fang sighed silently.

  Jiang Ping and the others also sighed, Jiang Ping said, "Since my fifth brother brought back the Shangfang treasure sword, it has been placed on the central sword rack in the warehouse. We have been dispatching people to guard it day and night. The key to the warehouse is in my hand. Unless I agree, no one can open the warehouse and enter!"

  "Even the two people who were protecting him closely were locked in, but who would have thought that the Shangfang treasure sword was actually stolen!?" Jiang Ping's eyes widened in surprise.

  It's not just Jiang Ping, Lu Fang and others were also shocked. To say nothing of the fact that this person killed the guards who were guarding the treasure sword, the thief came to this place, but the five mice were completely unaware of it, which was enough to shock them!

  Zhan Zhao walked forward, furrowed his brow and looked around, carefully examining the ground, his eyebrows tightly knitted.

  All I can think of is one thing, it's over, the plot is completely chaotic. Firstly, there is no Jinmao Mouse stealing Shangfang Sword in Bao Qingtian. Secondly, in this Trap Island mouse nest, although we have been carefully guarding Shangfang Sword, Shangfang Sword has disappeared!

  This matter is settled... Will Lao Bao chop us off?
