Chapter 26: Luo Jia (1)
Luo Jia looked hesitant, "If you don't destroy it, in case he sends someone to probe again, he finds out the passage to the capital." ”
With a light face, Tilian said in a low voice, "If you want to block the intersection leading to the city, this passage will be considered to be abandoned." ”
With regret on his face, Luo Jia sighed, looked at Di Lian and asked lightly, "Since the road of Yuanhua Temple has been abandoned, where should I go next?" ”
Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, pondering for a moment, and Tillian whispered, "Clean up and go to the South China Sea." ”
"South China Sea?" , Luo Jia looked slightly stunned, glanced at Xie Hengxu, and waited for Tillian to give an explanation.
Pacing to the edge of the couch and taking a seat, Tilian said in a low voice, "I will think of asking my father to make up a new household text for you, you go to the sea in the caravan, first go to the Starfall Dynasty to explore, at most two years, I will establish a new business there, you will lead it." ”
Luo Jia looked incredulous when he heard this, "Me? Xiubai's index finger pointed to his nose, Luo Jia raised his eyebrows, "I don't know anything except some shallow medical skills and superb poison skills, you let me do business?" ”
Seeing his expression, Tilian smiled lightly, "Just do what you will, you will always open the pharmacy." ”
Luo Jia's eyebrows turned into pimples, Xie Hengxu's expression had eased, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Pharmacy? You really dare to do any business. ”
Yueyan raised her eyes and smiled at Luo Jia, and Tilian said slowly, "I pity you for being rootless and wandering to take you in, and now I want to settle down for you, don't you thank me?" ”
Luo Jia was angry, staring at her with clear apricot eyes, "I am the 'poison hero Luo Jia' in the green forest, I have always killed people with poison, but now I want to open a pharmacy for you to make money, do you want me to thank you?" ”
Slanted at him, Tillian raised her chin slightly and looked leisurely, "Since you still miss the rivers and lakes so much, you will continue to wander, in vain I bothered to change your face for you, and also sent you to the safe Starfall, when you get there, who still knows you?" ”
Luo Jia only felt weak and weak, and looked at Xie Hengxu with a look, Xie Hengxu's eyebrows were raised, and he couldn't help it.
Seeing that Di Lian's expression was calm, Luo Jia knew that there was no room for looping, and responded dejectedly, and left with Xie Hengxu.
Out of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, the two turned over and got on the horse, and now it is night, and the city gate will not open until tomorrow, Luo Jia can only go to the Rongguo Mansion to borrow a night.
Xie Hengxu took him through the back door to avoid his eyes and settled into the 'Ling Dengju' where he lived.
"Tomorrow, as soon as the city gate opens, I will send you out of the city, wait for good news after returning to Yuanhua Temple, once the documents are completed, I will send them to you, and then you will immediately change your outfit and go to the South China Sea."
The monk of Qingjun sighed helplessly, raised his hand and stroked the top of his head, "I am destined to flee, in order to avoid those people in the rivers and lakes, I even shaved my hair, and now it is good, but in three years, I will leave my hometown again." ”
Xie Hengxu smiled, hammered him and said, "I knew why I had to do so many sins today, and I could live well, so thank Lian'er." ”
Luo Jia smiled faintly, watched Xie Hengxu turn around and leave, sighed shallowly, stared at the flickering lamps and candles on the table, and his clear apricot eyes were filled with mist.
At the end of the summer of the fifteenth year of Kangshun, Xia Lan and Xing Fall had a beacon fire, at that time Luo Jia was still one of the terrifying 'four evil things' in the rivers and lakes, 'Poison Man', the reason why he was given such a title by the people in the rivers and lakes, is because he was a young man with a good poison technique, and his heart was cold and hard-hearted.
That year, he escaped from the enemy's pursuit all the way, strayed into the Beiguan camp, and when he had an idea, he mixed in the army and hid for several months, until the people who searched for him stopped coming and going, and it was two years later, and he took this opportunity to follow the triumphant army into the capital.
Jianghu people have the rules of Jianghu people, generally those who don't like to be bound don't like to go to the center of politics to mix, the capital is the Son of Heaven court official Lord Linli, Luo Jia thought it was safe here, but he still slipped to Goolan to visit the kiln one day and night when he met one of the enemies, even if he was chased and ran away for most of the capital.
Although he is superb in poison and knows some medical skills in fighting poison with poison, in addition to light skills in martial arts, the kung fu on fists, feet and swords can be described as 'miserable'.
That night, when he was killed all over his body, the pursuers were killed by his poison, dragging a body of injuries and it was difficult to make light work, Luo Jia walked all the way through the streets and alleys to find a remote place, and finally fell on the street in a blur, only to see a light gray corner of the robe.
When I woke up again, I saw a beautiful and picturesque girl in a blue skirt, looking at only about ten years old, she was reclining on the soft couch holding a cup of gold lacquer teacup, looking at the books on the small table with a relaxed expression, Luo Jia glanced at it, only to find that he was thrown on the ground, fortunately, the wound had been bandaged, and the carpet was soft enough.
Hearing his movements, the girl looked sideways, her soft and clear moon eyes lowered her eyes and stared at him on the ground, and the corners of her lips smiled lightly, "Still alive?" ”
Luo Jia laughed when he heard this, and changed to a normal weak woman, he should be worried if he was not panicked, after all, he thought that his appearance was quite handsome.
Sitting up slowly with his arms propped up, Luo Jia lowered his head and glanced at his bandaged body like a cocoon, then raised his eyes to look at the girl who was staring at him, and said with a weak smile, "Beauty, since you are willing to hire a doctor for me, why don't you do it to the end?" After that, he glanced at the richly decorated room, "Seeing that you are either rich or noble, since you are reluctant to have a bed, I am also a disabled person." ”
Su Rong did not fluctuate, the girl still had a light face, Dai Mei raised her eyebrows, and said disapprerovantly, "It's not me who asked for a doctor for you, but if it's me, I won't pick you up at all." ”
Luo Jia only felt a choke in his throat, and his eyes were speechless.
Immediately after listening to her speak, Meiyue eyes squinted at him, "The money for the medicine is fifteen taels in total, this room is not for guests, since you have been lying here all night, count you cheaper, five hundred taels, and the silver will be handed over to the shopkeeper downstairs, you can go." ”
After hearing this sentence, Luo Jia was speechless, he couldn't wait to die on the street directly, there are many strange things every year, there are many strange things every year, there is such a woman in this world who only recognizes silver and is cold-hearted and impersonal, and wasted that dusty face.
Just as he was cursing in his heart, he heard a knock on the door, and a thin man in a gray robe came in, and Luo Jia immediately thought of the gray corner of his robe before losing his mind.
But seeing that the man glanced at him, his expression was as indifferent as that of a girl, and then he ignored him, walked around Luo Jia to the soft couch, and said respectfully, "Girl, the carriage is ready." ”
Luo Jiaton was surprised, this man could be the father of this girl, and it was really weird to be so respectful to a ten-year-old girl.
I saw that the girl gently bowed her head, looked at Luo Jia sideways, and raised her eyebrows lightly and asked, "How?" ”
Luo Jia grinded his teeth, his eyes swept his body covered in gauze and could not move, and said fiercely, "Can I have silver?!" Don't say no, it's his current state, he can't leave if he wants to.
The eyebrows were raised, and the girl looked surprised, and turned her head and ordered the gray-robed man, "Mr. Liu, write down a note of five hundred and fifteen taels and draw it for him, you saved the person, you can take it down and deal with it yourself." ”
The gray-robed man smiled when he heard this, and replied respectfully, "Yes." After that, he walked over, leaned over to help Luo Jia, who was half-lying on the ground, and helped him staggered out of the door.
Before going out, Luo Jia didn't forget to turn around and glare at the girl on the couch.
Out of the door, Luo Jia glanced at it, only to know that the place where he was now was the top floor of the first floor of the capital's 'Diners', and he couldn't help but be stunned, I heard that the third floor was the exclusive box of the 'Diners' owner, and the ten-year-old girl was the owner of this restaurant?
As soon as he thought of this, Luo Jia shook his head secretly, he must have thought too much, the 'Diner Huan' is divided into buildings all over the surrounding towns, how can such a big industry be manipulated by a ten-year-old girl, it must be the daughter of the owner.
The man who was called Mr. Liu helped him out of the back door of the restaurant, and a simple carriage with a gray curtain was parked outside the door.
Luo Jia's heart moved, remembering the conversation between Mr. Liu and the girl, 'The car is ready', is this 'car' specially prepared for himself.
Thinking of this, Luo Jia looked sideways at Mr. Liu, who was sitting on the left, and asked, "Your girl, where are you going to send me?" ”
Hearing him ask like this, Liu Junchen smiled and said comfortingly, "Childe don't panic, you are injured now, the girl told Liu to find a quiet place for Childe to recuperate." ”
Luo Jia's heart was relieved, and then he glared and sneered, "Will she be so kind?" I'm afraid I won't pay her back. It must be because he was afraid that he would run away, so he had to send someone to escort him personally.
Liu Junchen smiled and shook his head helplessly, "It's just a few hundred taels of silver, and my girl doesn't care about it." ”
Luo Jia was stunned, and secretly said too, 'Diner Huan' earns 10,000 taels a day, but it is more than 500 taels of silver, she shouldn't care, so why do you want to take her in, Fang Cai obviously doesn't care about his life or death.
Seeing his doubts, Liu Junchen smiled secretly and said with a smile, "My girl has always been cold-hearted and kind-hearted, if she really wanted to drive you away regardless of her son's injury, how could she have ordered Liu to save you last night?" As early as last night, the girl instructed that when the son woke up, she would arrange for you to recuperate elsewhere. The reason why I care about the silver taels with my son is that I don't want my son to be grateful because of his kindness, if the girl refuses to help, she won't help, and if she helps, she never wants others to reciprocate anything. ”
Luo Jia was stunned when he heard this, and muttered, "I thought it was Mr. Liu who saved me." ”
Liu Junchen smiled, looked at him and said, "If the master doesn't command, how dare I meddle in things?" ”
The high-ranking family has always had strict rules, Luo Jia realized at this moment, and then thought of the beautiful and picturesque girl with an indifferent face, and suddenly felt stubborn and cute. Then I unexpectedly realized that even though she was half angry with her, with her own temperament, she didn't even think about poisoning her to taste it.
On the second day, when Liu Junchen came to him with a bill of arrears written in black and white, Luo Jia couldn't help grinding his teeth, and even the cost of the carriage and the coachman's wages were included in this note.
