Chapter 005: Something Happened
After standing for a while, he really felt that there was nothing to see in this bustle, Xiao Yu turned around and prepared to leave.
At this time, not far from the eight-treasure canopy, the windmill in the hand of a little girl on the side of the road suddenly fell into the street.
When the little girl, who was only three or four years old, saw that the windmill had fallen to the ground, she immediately broke free of her mother's hand and ran to the middle of the road to pick it up.
The young woman was so frightened that she stretched out her hand to pull her back, but the crowd was crowded, and the little girl had already run to the guard of honor.
The guards of a county king's mansion next to him saw that someone dared to collide with the county lord, and he waved his long whip with anger on his face and whipped it over!
The little girl crouched down, and as soon as she got her hands on the colourful windmill, she looked up for her mother's figure with joy, when the whip with its barbs and spikes fell heavily on her little face.
Xiao Yu happened to see this scene when he turned around, and couldn't help but exclaim in shock: "Be careful! ”
But it was too late, and the little girl let out a sharp and frightened scream, and blood splattered on her face, and she immediately fainted straight up.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu only felt that his blood was surging, his eyes were about to split, and he gritted his teeth and burst out two words: "Beast!" ”
"Erya!"
The little girl's mother came to her senses, screamed heartbreakingly, squeezed through the crowd desperately, and threw herself into the road like crazy.
Everyone was stunned by this change, and then they were all in an uproar and excited.
The guard of honor only frowned and avoided the mother and daughter, and continued to move forward as if nothing had happened. The guard's face showed impatience, and as soon as he winked, several guards stepped forward and dragged away the woman who had already hugged the little girl and was crying bitterly.
The crowd next to them couldn't stand it, and rushed forward in anger to stop the guards from committing murder. The guards immediately drew their sabers to block, punched and kicked, and the unarmed people fell to the ground one after another, and the scene suddenly became a mess.
The city guards were already shouting to stop the commotion, but the people in front seemed to be unaware, and the car still didn't stop.
Xiao Yu was also squeezed around, and a jade lock fell to the ground without being found. Seeing that the situation was not good, she immediately shouted in a hurry: "The county lord has killed someone!" ”
This was immediate, everyone was stunned, Xiao Yu relied on his small stature, and quickly got into the crowd, and when Li Ying heard the movement and followed the voice, he only saw a piece of blue clothes flashing quickly.
Some people hidden behind the crowd seemed to have found a solution to the crisis, and shouted in the same way: "Lord Shuhui has killed someone!" Help me! ”
Li Ying was shocked and angry, trembling with anger, and immediately stopped the car and asked the commander of the personal guard to come over and ask what happened.
The commander didn't know the cause of the incident, and after asking about the answer, Li Ying was furious: "A bunch of waste! Worse than useless! ”
Seeing that the situation was gradually controlled by the city guards, Li Ying immediately got out of the car, ordered someone to quickly treat the girl's wounds, sent her to the hospital for treatment, and personally whipped the guard who had been beaten half to death by everyone on the spot, and dragged him down to treat his crime of disregarding human life, and then sat back in the car with an ugly face.
When such a thing happened, everyone had no intention of watching the excitement, and they were afraid of being arrested and questioned, so they hurriedly dispersed.
Xiao Yu also mixed in with the crowd and left quietly.
The long street, which was very lively just now, suddenly became deserted, and only the guards of the Jingnan County Palace's palace and the full guard of honor stood still, just like a joke.
Seeing this scene, Li Ying's knuckles turned white, and she tore the guard's heart.
Li Sheng, the commander of the guards, walked to the front of the car and bowed his head to plead guilty.
Li Ying barely calmed down the anger in her heart and asked, "Who took the lead in spreading rumors?!" Have you figured it out? ”
The county lord's entrance to the city was made like this, Li Sheng's face was not good-looking, and he replied in a low voice: "The subordinates are incompetent, the scene was too chaotic at that time, and I didn't tell which people were shouting nonsense, please ask the county lord to surrender." ”
Hearing such a result, Li Ying almost couldn't control the hanging pearl emerald on the canopy, and it took a while to hold back her anger, and her heart swept over the corner of the blue clothes, and said coldly: "Drive home!" ”
Xiao Yu quietly followed behind the mother and daughter. The young woman held her daughter in her arms and wept. Although the little girl's wound had been treated, it was still oozing blood, and the whip mark was long and deep, extending from the corner of the right eye to the side of the mouth, which was extremely hideous, and I am afraid that the scar was inevitable.
With the current world, if this little girl can't marry because of this, her life will be ruined.
But Xiao Yu could only do her best, and after finding out which hospital the little girl was treating her injuries in, she immediately turned back to the inn, took some good wound medicine and ointment with the effect of removing scars, and scattered the silver, and then ran away after giving it to the young woman in the medical hall.
Until dinner, Xiao Yu's heart was still uncomfortable.
Although the county lord of Shuhui severely punished the personal guard and acted extremely guilty, this could not hide the fact that the personal guards of the Jingnan County Royal Mansion were flying rampantly. If it weren't for the fact that these people were accustomed to careless of human life on weekdays, how could ordinary people have such a heavy hand on a three- or four-year-old child?
Xiao Yu was extremely disgusted with the Jingnan County Palace.
Next.
Because he didn't buy a house yesterday, and he met that sister and brother, and that tragedy happened, Xiao Yu was in a bad mood.
Even so, the house still has to be bought.
"Little brother, where are you going?" Hao Jun sat in the lobby and when he saw Xiao Yu coming downstairs, he stood up and greeted him loudly.
"Brother Hao Jun."
Xiao Yu walked over a little surprised, she was small, and when she got closer, she had to look up at the tall Hao Jun, "I want to go to the city to look for a house." Why are you still staying at the inn? ”
Hao Jundeng's eyes widened: "You buy a house to live alone?" Why don't you go to my house. Although it is simple, it is easy to be taken care of. It's just that I'm afraid that I will not be there in the future, and there will only be my brother and sister-in-law at home. I went into the city this time to find an errand, and I just went to the General's Mansion early this morning to take the exam, and I have passed it smoothly. ”
"What's the errand in the General's Mansion?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.
Hao Jun seemed to be quite excited: "You know General Zhennan, right?" I have a friend who is in the army, and he said that the city guards guarding Yong'an County under General Ling Da were going to recruit people, so I asked him to help ask. ”
Saying that, Hao Jun patted the big knife in his hand: "My martial arts have not been practiced in vain, I was selected by the general, and I can go over to report tomorrow." ”
Xiao Yu didn't expect him to really have some ability, so he was impressed by him and said with a smile: "Big brother is really powerful." ”
Hao Jun was even happier when he heard this, and grinned: "I have already found the shopkeeper to leave the room, and there is nothing to do, so let's go out with you." Buying a house is a big deal, you are so big, be careful of being deceived. ”
Xiao Yu nodded in agreement.
At that moment, the two had lunch, Hao Jun took the baggage, asked an errand runner to send it to a friend in the north of the city first, and the two went out.
There are many mountains and forests, so there are many shops selling all kinds of mountain goods, such as furs, spices, medicinal herbs, game and pearls. Many merchants came from afar to buy mountain goods and precious spices and medicinal materials from Yuedi, as well as jade and pearls famous in southern Xinjiang and along the coast.
Xiao Yu visited several shops selling all kinds of groceries one after another, and even forgot about buying a house.
Hao Jun followed behind, and it didn't take long to find that Xiao Yu's eyes were on the medicinal materials in the store, picking them up from time to time to take a closer look and sniff, and looking at some doorways, and asked, "Little brother, do you want to buy medicine?" ”
"No, just take a look." Xiao Yu shook his head and put down the gastrodia in his hand.
"You know medicinal herbs?" Hao Jun asked with wide eyes.
"Barely a little, still learning." Xiao Yu nodded, saw that the shopkeeper was already a little impatient, and turned around and walked out of the store.
Hao Jun saw Xiao Yu's appearance, caught up with her in a few steps, and said happily: "I have come up with a good way, why don't you go to the General's Mansion and ask to see if you can be an apprentice or something for the military doctor." If it really happens, the two of us can also have a care. ”
Xiao Yu saw that Hao Jun was thinking about a new acquaintance like this, and was even more sure that he had a good character, so he couldn't help but smile slightly, thinking that he could consider it. Just as he was about to answer, suddenly there was a suppressed cry in front of him, which was still audible in the noisy street.
What's going on? Xiao Yu's heart sank and he couldn't help but think.
