Chapter 46: Lies
Lu Wu seemed to notice Hu Nineteen behind the pillar, he lowered his head and chuckled, and then quickly followed Han Moyang, who was full of interest in front of him.
Hu Shijiu was stunned behind the pillar, also lowered his head, and quickly went down from the second floor and left the drunkard building.
"Lu Wu!"
Before stepping into the broken temple, Hu Shijiu shouted loudly, at this time, she hoped that Lu Wu, who was wearing tattered clothes and always looked like he had not washed his face, suddenly jumped out, raised his eyebrows and said to herself, "What is the matter with the dead girl looking for the master?" β
However, there was silence all around.
"Blackie?"
Hu Shijiu walked into the temple, and in the temple, the clothes that Lu Wu had thrown everywhere in the past were gone.
Hu Jiu's heart was suddenly empty, she tentatively called Xiao Hei, although she knew that it was inseparable from Lu Wu, but she still had a fluke.
"Dead girl, why are you in such a hurry to find your master?" Behind him, someone said lazily with a hint of a smile.
Hu Jiu was stunned, she didn't dare to turn her head, she was afraid that she would turn around to face a strange Lu Wu, or, not Lu Wu.
The man seemed to be impatient, and walked in front of her in a few steps, and in an instant, Hu Shijiu's head hurt.
"I haven't been here for so long, do you miss my finger flicking magic too much?" Black boots, half-new round neck and lack of hakama brocade robe, and further up, Hu Shijiu didn't dare to look up.
The other party deliberately reached out in front of her, curling his thumb and index finger in a circle. "Another one?"
"Hey! You're enough! Hu Shijiu raised his head a little angrily, but looked at Lu Wu with a pair of smiling eyes.
Sure enough, the face, which was rarely washed, was like a piece of flawless jade at this time. Lu Wu, the familiar and unfamiliar Lu Wu, stared at the flustered Hu Shijiu.
"Lu Wu," Hu Nineteen took a step back, she wasn't used to the two of them standing so close.
Lu Wu was stunned for a moment and did not step forward.
A short step away, but it seems like thousands of rivers and mountains.
"Are you hiding something from me?"
The two said in unison.
Lu Wu smiled: "You first." β
"Why should I come first?" Hu Nineteen said angrily.
"Okay, I'll go first." Lu Wu sat on the ground, just like he had done countless times before.
"I'll ask you first, if you're hiding something from me."
"Tricks!" Hu Shijiu also sat opposite him, "It's clear that I asked first." β
"Yes." Lu Wu replied briefly, Hu Shijiu didn't react for a while, and was stunned for a moment before he realized that Lu Wu was answering his own question. "What is it?"
"It's my turn." Lu Wu released the black snake in his sleeve.
As soon as the black snake smelled Hu Nineteen's scent in his sleeve, he couldn't wait to flip and move.
"I really don't have a conscience." Lu Wu didn't know if he was scolding the black snake or talking about Hu Nineteen.
Hu Shijiu rolled his eyes.
If you want to say that you are a fox, and you are reborn to save Han Fu, Lu Wu will definitely be scared to death, right?
"Nope." She looked at the black snake and said.
"Good. Then I'll believe it. Lu Wu didn't ask, nodded and lay on the grass, "I've been smirking for a day, I'm tired!" β
Hu Shijiu found that he seemed to be unable to understand Lu Wu's words more and more.
Lu Wu pillowed his arm and raised his eyebrows, "Don't say you didn't see it, I wandered the streets like a nymphomaniac for a day." He glanced at his lips again and said dissatisfiedly.
This is the look that makes Hu Shijiu familiar, the familiar Lu Wu.
Hu Shijiu remembered the scene he saw upstairs from the drunkard, and couldn't help laughing.
"By the way, how do you know I saw it?"
"It's it!" Lu Wu nodded at Xiao Hei, who was sprinkled with joy next to Hu Shijiu.
"As soon as I walked downstairs to the drunkard, it was dishonest in its sleeve!" Lu Wu said, as if he didn't understand hatred, he flicked Xiao Hei aside.
Hu Shijiu was distressed and hurriedly picked up Xiao Hei and held it in the palm of his hand and stroked it gently.
"I'm not as good as a snakeβ" Lu Wu closed his eyes and said with a depressed expression.
"Huh?"
"Fool." Lu Wu turned over and ignored Hu Nineteen.
"Lu Wu, why are you here, Han, by the side of the eldest young master?" Hu Shijiu's tongue was knotted, and he almost blurted out Han Moyang's name.
"Family." Lu Wu still had his back to her.
"Family?" There are so many people in Hanfu, do you still need to recruit family members from outside?
"I sold myself in exchange for three meals a day." Lu Wu waved the rice straw in his hand, but his voice didn't sound like a joke.
"Lu Wu!" Hu Shijiu stood up, walked in front of Lu Wu, and squatted down. "You didn't lie to me?"
"What do you think?" Lu Wu asked, staring into her eyes.
"I don't know." Hu Shijiu replied honestly.
Her answer surprised Lu Wu a little, and Lu Wu also turned over and sat up: "I originally wanted to find you to celebrate when I went to the Drunkard Building that day, but," Lu Wu's expression flashed a touch of grievance: "You dead girl actually kicked me out!" β
"That day?" Lu Wu's expression made Hu Shijiu a little stunned, and she vaguely remembered that one day, Lu Wu showed a clean face and sat neatly dressed in the drunkard building. That day, it seemed to be the first day I went to work upstairs in the drunkard.
"I thought you were going to congratulate me......" Hu Jiujiu scratched his head and said a little embarrassed.
"Hah!" Lu Wu laughed exaggeratedly, "Dead girl, you are really self-inflicted, the drunkard building is so expensive, if it weren't for the master to find an errand, you could finally sit there and drink tea, otherwise just by stealing, do you think the master is a flying fox?" β
The Flying Fox is the most famous thief in Lang Capital and the dream lover of countless girls.
A thief is actually the favorite of many young girls, which is probably the most fantastical thing Hu Shijiu has ever heard.
However, it is said that those who met him were all impressed by his radiance.
Some people say that he has clear eyebrows, some people say that he is in the wind, and some people say that he has a stunt, and he comes and goes without a trace.
Most importantly, he was a thief, jealous of evil, killing the rich and helping the poor.
Whether it is those overbearing officials or the rich and unkind businessmen. When I heard the name "Flying Fox", I didn't know what to eat, and I couldn't sleep at night.
And a few days ago, the famous corrupt official in Langjing City, Yan Xiao, was not only greedy for money, but also greedy for sex, but forced to kill the only daughter of the "Tofu Zhou" family who had just turned sixteen.
The two lonely old men of the Zhou family wept bloodifully and begged for help. Helplessly, they supported each other, knelt down step by step in Langjing City, and just begged someone to administer justice for them.
So, on the second day, Yan Xiao's head was hung on the "martial tower" in the middle of the four main streets in the east, west, south and north.
It is said that on the wall behind the headless corpse, there is a liquid similar to blood, which reads "Flying Fox".
For a time, in Langjing City, no one knew, no one knew, and everyone clapped their hands.
The government set up a net of heaven and earth, but he was like a goose crossing a cold pool, and there was no trace.
And the deeds of the "flying fox" are still praised in the mouths of the people of Langjing City day and night.
And the two old men of the Zhou family, despite the dissuasion of the people around them, set up an immortal tablet for the "Flying Fox" at home, praying that Engong can live a long life and live a long life.
Not to mention the word "fox" in his name, just because he is so chivalrous and righteous, Hu Shijiu, a real fox who was reborn in the world, also has a sense of closeness in his heart.
In the previous life, Hu Shijiu was already in the Han Mansion at this time, and the deeds of the flying fox were only a little known, but in this life, she was in the Drunkard Building, as the latest and fastest birthplace and reception of all the gossip, and the information she heard was much more detailed.
She thought of it and depicted the heroic posture of the "Flying Fox" in her mind, but when she looked down, she found that Lu Wu was staring at her.
Hu Jiujiu suddenly thought of the recent news about that thief, and hurriedly reached out to cover Lu Wu's mouth, "Be quiet, I heard that the government has been arresting him recently!" β
Under Hu Shijiu's little hand with the fragrance of flowers, Lu Wu's narrow eyes slowly widened, and his face turned red......
"Lu Wu?" Hu Shijiu looked at Lu Wu's increasingly red face, and hurriedly let go of his hand, "Is my hand heavy?" Are you sick? β
Lu Wu's thick eyelashes blinked twice quickly.
"What the hell is wrong with you? Speak! Hu Shijiu became more and more anxious, and he wanted to reach out and touch Lu Wu's forehead.
Lu Wu dodged with his head on one side. "I'm fine."
His voice at this time was like broken porcelain, cutting through Hu Shijiu's ears, with a rough touch.
The recent Lu Wu often makes Hu Shijiu feel strange.
They met in the water, but they hit it off at first sight, however, the trajectory of fate made them drift apart.
"Lu Wu," Hu Shijiu called his name, but he didn't know what to say.
"Shen Jianing," this name seemed to have been called for a long time, and there was a fleeting blankness in Hu Shijiu's eyes.
Her subtle actions did not escape Lu Wu's eyes.
"What? Isn't that even the name fake? Without waiting for Hu Shijiu to answer, he stood up and looked out of the temple gate.
"It's so fast, in a blink of an eye, it's spring." Lu Wu seemed to be talking to himself, and slowly walked out of the broken temple.
"Yes, it's really ......fast," Hu Shijiu also stood up and walked to his side.
Time, like sand in the palm of your hand, the tighter you grasp it, the faster it passes.
The light outside the ruined temple is much brighter and stronger than in the temple, and the scenery in front of you has a clear appearance.
Looking at Lu Wu, who was very different from the past, a thought slipped through Hu Shijiu's heart, this thought, like bamboo shoots after the rain, instantly took root in her heart, making her conflicted and excited. Since Lu Wu is already the head of the Han Mansion, can she ......
"Lu Wu, can you help me with something?"
Hu 19 decided to take a desperate gamble.
"Say."
Lu Wu's trust, in Hu Shijiu's heart, is not unmoved.
"Han Fu, maybe there is a girl named Qingque, if you see it, tell me. On weekdays, please take care of her more. β
Lu Wu didn't speak, and turned his head to look at Hu Nineteen.
"That's it?"
"Hmm."
"She is a relative of my sister family in the same village." Hu Shijiu simply said that the relationship was more complicated, so as not to show his feet in the future.
"Blue Sparrow?" Lu Wu looked at Hu Shijiu, "Okay, I'll write it down." β
"No......" Hu Jiujiu suddenly thought of something, "Maybe she is not called Qingque, she, she may be called Bihe, or Bai Zhi, etc., let me think about it......"
Han Fu is good at using flowers as the name, and the green sparrow back then was still named by Shen Jianing in her own house when the little girl assigned it to her.
However, the previous name of Qingque, the more anxious Hu Shijiu was, the more he couldn't remember it.
She pondered hard, but saw Lu Wu's expression gradually darken.
"Lu Wu, I ......"
"Got it, maybe she's called Qingque, maybe she's Bihe or Angelica, whatever the flower. What are the characteristics of her? Lu Wu didn't wait for Hu Shijiu to speak, and asked first.
"Oh, yes, there's a little birthmark under the right side of her face." In the previous life, it was for this reason that Qingque was disliked by the teaching workshop, and even after entering the Han Mansion, he was also excluded by various rooms. Only then was he sent to the "Cold Palace", and became a master and servant with the equally down-and-out young grandmother of the Han Mansion, "Shen Jianing", which is more like a sister's relationship.
"Okay, that's enough." Lu Wu listened carefully to Hu Shijiu's description, and said after repeating it again.
"Lu Wu, I ......"
One lie, perhaps more lies are needed to cover it up.
It turns out that lying feels like this, like wearing a dress that does not belong to you, and you are embarrassed, but it is difficult to take it off immediately.
"Where's the roast chicken?" Lu Wu stretched out his hand towards Hu Shijiu.
Hu Jiujiu looked at him inexplicably.
"You've been in the Drunkard Building for so many days, you won't come to see me empty-handed today, right?" Lu Wu deliberately changed the topic, pointed at Hu Shijiu and said.
Sure enough, Hu Shijiu looked down and suddenly realized that he was dressed as a guy from the drunkard building, that is to say, when she was still at work, because she was in a hurry, she came to the broken temple!
"Oops!" As she ran out, she turned her head and shouted, "Lu Wu, I'll come back another day!" β
Some other day?
Lu Wu leaned against the temple gate, and the smile in his eyes disappeared with Hu Shijiu's distant figure......
This stupid girl is so sure, every time she comes to the temple, she can meet herself so "justly"?
Lu Wu looked at the place where Hu Shijiu passed, where it used to be overgrown with weeds, and it was only because of her arrival that he spent a lot of effort to plant flowers.
The sparse soil left deep and shallow footprints of Hu 19.
Dead girl, can't you even see it?
Dead girl, how much else are you hiding from me?
