Volume 1 The Lovely Boy Chapter 4 Young Master Hua loves neither money nor prestige
The middle-aged man saw that the convoy was leaving, and said urgently:
"Brother Hua, if you escort us back to Broken Demon City, we will thank you ...... you!"
After saying that, the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought that Hua Duxiu claimed to be the son of the richest man, and he regarded money like dung, so he quickly changed his words:
"Brother Hua, if you agree, I ...... I promise you unimaginably great prestige!"
Since you don't love money, you always love fame, right?
The carriage had just taken two steps before it stopped again, and Hua Duxiu poked her head out of the window.
The middle-aged man was happy in his heart: rich people really like a good reputation!
Hua Duxiu said calmly:
"Big brother, I just turned down a 'huge prestige' yesterday. As long as I want, I will be one of the top ten outstanding young people in Demon City in a minute, but am I the kind of person who cares about reputation?"
"That reputation ......"
"It's just a name, floating clouds, it's all floating clouds. ”
The middle-aged man was confused, he really had no tricks.
Seeing that the horse team set off again, the young woman behind the middle-aged man suddenly said in a loud voice:
"This fresh, handsome, and dashing beautiful man, please stay!"
......
"Stop!"
Hua Duxiu's unmistakable voice came from the carriage.
The groom hurriedly reined in the horse's head.
Stop-and-go, he was about to get motion sickness from these people.
Hua Duxiu lifted the curtain and looked at the crowd: "Who is calling me?"
The young woman hurriedly said, "Yes...... Little woman. ”
Hua Duxiu sighed: "This damn temperament and appearance always make it impossible for me to keep a low profile." ”
Everyone fell.
The young woman wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said, "Beautiful...... Brother beautiful man, can I ask you to take a turn and go back to the Demon Breaking City again? Little girl, I admire your amazing appearance and proud martial arts, I don't know ......"
"Yes!
Hua Duxiu agreed to come down.
The groom hurriedly said: "Playboy ......"
Hua Duxiu waved his hand: "Double the cost." ”
"Okay, thank you, Childe! Thank you, Childe!"
"Such a sensible and talkative, well-eyed girl, what if she is targeted by bad people along the way?
The groom was right.
You're good-looking, and you're right about anything.
As long as you add money, you are right in everything.
Hua Duxiu likes to be praised by men the most, especially by women with handsome faces and arrogant hearts, which is a kind of recognition and praise from an extremely critical eye, which naturally makes people feel happy.
Moreover, Hua Duxiu thought about it, is it really just for a little gold and silver from a group of unusual robbers?
I'm afraid that the motive is not pure.
After a brief tidying up, the young woman and the others stepped back on their horses and returned to the Demon Breaker City with the beautiful horse team.
The middle-aged man wanted to ask something several times, but unfortunately Hua Duxiu ignored him at all, and he only wanted to talk to the people who praised him.
The middle-aged man really couldn't pull his face down and shouted out the phrase "beautiful man".
The young woman had no choice but to ask, "Flowers...... Dude, are you from Yanyu County?"
Hua Duxiu said: "Yes." Girl, listen to the accent, are you a foreigner?"
"Hmm...... It hasn't been long since our family moved to Trapped Demon Valley, but I didn't expect that Uncle Lu and I would be targeted by robbers as soon as we came out today. ”
Hua Duxiu looked the woman up and down, the woman was similar in age to Hua Duxiu, with a hint of perseverance in her sweet appearance, her personality was upright and generous, and her temperament was noble, obviously not an ordinary person.
Hua Duxiu nodded and said, "Outstanding characters like us are always easy to be targeted. ”
The young woman smiled alongside.
I thought, why don't you ask me what my name is?
I've been talking about girls, shouldn't I ask my name after talking for so long?
Seeing Hua Duxiu didn't mean to ask all the way, the young woman had to take the initiative to say:
"Playboy, the little woman's name is Yaoyao, she is new to the school, and today is really troublesome for you. ”
"Yaoyao, is there still the surname 'Yao' in the world?" Hua Duxiu said strangely.
“...... It's not my surname Yao, I'm ...... My name is Yaoyao. Yaoyao said embarrassedly.
"No wonder, I want to read poetry and books, learn to be rich, how can there be a surname in the world that I have never heard of. ”
“......”
The two chatted without a word.
It's not that there are no common topics, it's really that Hua Duxiu's brain circuit is too strange, and a few words always make Yaoyao stuck.
It's easy to talk about the topic to death.
......
In the dense forest a mile away from everyone.
The previous leader of the robbers stared viciously at the people who had returned to the Broken Demon City, gritting his teeth angrily.
A person behind him said: "Big brother, I didn't expect to kill Cheng Cheng halfway, what should we do with the task arranged by the Song Sect Master?"
"What should I do? What else can I do? That kid in the Demon Stream Mansion is too strong, we are not opponents. It's too late to go back and move the rescuers. ”
The leader of the robbers watched everyone go farther and farther, and said angrily: "That's it, let's go back!" The Peng family has always been low-key, and the foundation for coming here is still shallow, as long as the little ladies dare to go out of the city, we have a chance!"
"Big brother has a point!"
"Hmph, if you don't give the Peng family a dismount, they won't know whose world the Trapped Demon Valley is!"
......
It was already dark, and everyone entered the Demon Breaking City without stopping.
Hua Duxiu thought that Miss Yaoyao was going to invite him to dinner, but he had thought about the restaurant, it was his favorite one, the chef was very skilled, and the food was good in color and aroma.
It's a pity that after Yaoyao and the others entered the city, they immediately said goodbye and left, as if they had something urgent to do.
Hua Duxiu had no choice but to lead the horse team to stay in the best inn in the city to rest.
After a simple dinner, Hua Duxiu untied his clothes and slowly slid into the wide wooden barrel.
Steaming.
"Whew, it's so cool......"
Hua Duxiu sighed silently.
After a day of traveling, being able to soak in a hot bath is more comfortable than anything else.
Although this is not a hot spring, under the guidance of Hua Duxiu, the shopkeeper took the largest wooden basin in the store, and used all kinds of salt soap petals to adjust the hot water to the most nourishing state.
Hua Duxiu hummed a little song softly.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the suite.
"Who! such an annoying ......" Hua Duxiu frowned slightly and muttered to herself.
"Childe, Childe!" came the voice of the shopkeeper outside.
"What's the matter?"
"There's a guest named Peng Lu downstairs looking for you. "The shop is small and second.
"Peng Lu?" Hua Duxiu thought for a while, and then remembered that this person was the middle-aged master who escorted Miss Yaoyao back together.
"Got it, please wait a while, I'll go downstairs at once. ”
In the hall of the inn, Peng Lu took two samurai to wait left and right.
Half an hour has passed, and Hua Duxiu has not come down yet.
"Little second brother, is the dude asleep?" Peng Lu asked with a frown.
"The dude was taking a bath and not sleeping. The shopkeeper smiled.
"Bath ......"
Peng Lu was speechless.
This Hua Duxiu martial arts is good, but unfortunately his personality is a little quirky, and he is too different from ordinary men.
Another quarter of an hour passed.
Just when Peng Lu couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to rush upstairs, Hua Duxiu wore a plain and fragrant shirt and walked down the stairs lightly.
The whole person is radiant.
Rao is a man from Peng Lu, and he also feels that the picture in front of him at this time is very attractive.
"It turned out to be Brother Lu. Hua Duxiu arched his hand at will.
Peng Lu came back to his senses and said angrily:
"Dude, Miss Yaoyao has been waiting for a long time, and I ask the playboy to move around. ”
"Aren't you all the way today?"
Hua Duxiu really didn't want to go out and walk around at night.
Especially after bathing.
"That's right, thanks to the playboy for his help today, Miss wants to thank the playboy in person. ”
"It's all clouds. ”
Hua Duxiu yawned, waved his hand and said:
"I didn't do it to get your gratitude. Brother Lu, go back quickly, it's three o'clock. ”
Peng Lu slandered: If you hadn't been grinding and chirping, would you have been able to drag it out so late?
"This ......"
Peng Lu was a little embarrassed.
Hua Duxiu beckoned, and the shopkeeper carefully walked over with a pot of blue and white phalaenopsis.
Hua Duxiu said: "The orchid is noble and elegant, and it is graceful." I raised this pot with my own hands, Brother Lu should take it back and give it to Miss Yaoyao. ”
Hua Duxiu said and yawned again.
No way, it's easy to get sleepy after taking a bath.
"It's too late, let's meet again, and we won't send it off slowly. ”
Without waiting for Peng Lu to speak, Hua Duxiu walked upstairs slowly, leaving Peng Lu standing in place with a sluggish face.
That's ...... Let's go?
"Guest officer, your flower ......," the shopkeeper reminded.
Peng Lu wordlessly took the pot of phalaenopsis and turned his head to look at the empty staircase.
Why have I been waiting for this flower for nearly an hour?
Or with a basin?
"Let's go!"
Peng Lu angrily turned around and left with his two men.
Broken Demon City, City Lord's Mansion, a hidden secret room.
The city lord Zhao Shentian stroked his beard, and there was a man scratching his head standing under his hand.
It was the robber who was defeated by Hua Duxiu during the day.
Zhao Shentian asked: "Erdan, this time you missed, it will be difficult to wait for the opportunity next time, you missed a great opportunity." ”
Zhao Erdan defended: "Cousin, I didn't expect someone from the Demon Stream Mansion to intervene? The guards around the little lady are already powerful, and it has taken a lot of effort for me to defeat them, and finally a master of the Demon Stream Mansion pops up, where else can I do." ”
Zhao Shentian nodded: "Demon Mansion? Hmph, these famous factions boast of being high-minded, and they don't want to deal with the government, so they don't secretly want to work for the people above?"
Zhao Erdan rolled his eyes, he had never had a good impression of the Demon Stream Mansion.
Zhao Shentian hesitated: "If you don't catch it this time, those county lords are not ready, let's do it, if we don't succeed, we won't be in a hurry." ”
Zhao Erdan asked, "Cousin, am I still staying in Broken Demon City?"
Zhao Shentian shook his head: "No, the thief surnamed Peng is very good, and it is in vain for you to stay in the Demon Breaking City." In this way, the Li City Lord of Shenquan City of Yanyu County is going to do a big thing recently, so you can go to his side in the next few days and cooperate with him to do something. ”
Zhao Erdan was overjoyed: "Do things? Do things well, I like it! The bigger it is, the more I like it!"
Zhao Shentian frowned and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, stand down!
Early the next morning.
Hua Duxiu was just about to freshen up, when she remembered the knock on the door outside.
It can't be Peng Lu's guy again, right?
Is there any end to it?
"Young Master, Young Master!" a familiar voice sounded outside.
"Ah! it's Uncle Ren!"
Hua Duxiu hurriedly opened the door of the outer room, only to see a gray-haired man standing there.
"I've seen the young master!"
"Uncle Ren, why are you here?"
"I heard that the young master has left the Demon Flow Mansion and is going to return to Shenquan City, and the old man has come to escort the young master!"
Hua Duxiu let Uncle Ren into the house and said with a smile: "Oh, Uncle Ren, I didn't want to trouble you, but I didn't expect to be discovered by you." ”
Uncle Ren said: "Young Master, why don't you tell me such a big thing! Demon Breaking City is eight hundred miles away from our Shenquan City, how dangerous this road is, we have so many dart masters, just escort you back, young master!"
Hua Duxiu said: "Uncle Ren, our family's dart master is doing business here, why are you escorting me? Besides, the place with me is the safest place, and you don't know my skills Uncle Ren?"
"Understood, understood!"
"Uncle Ren, since you're here, I just have something to worry about you. ”
