Chapter Seventy-One: Hugging the Tiger Pillow
When Lu Zuo heard that they were staying in the inn, he was even more annoyed, "You guys are obviously here to make trouble!" ”
"No, no, no!" Chen Huizhi's beard shook as he spoke, and he explained, "Senior brother, I am indeed sent by the master to help you!" The two of them are here to make trouble. ”
Lu Zuo also felt angry and funny, looking at him as a dignified eight-foot man with a fierce face, but he was so afraid of himself, he couldn't help but have a smile on the corner of his mouth, "When are you coming, I count the days, shouldn't you have arrived two days ago?" Why did it only appear today. ”
Chen Huizhi stared at him with wide eyes, "This is to blame for you, although you are easy to find, but I don't know who it is who comes and goes in the house, so I don't dare to show up." There is still someone next to you when you even sleep at night, so sometimes I either go back to the inn to find Lu Manxi, or hide in the rockery, and I always want to wait for you to appear again when you are alone, but I have never been able to find the opportunity. ”
Lu Zuo suddenly realized, "Oh, you said him!" That's my apprentice, don't worry about it. Today I will allow him to go to Gao Yun's house to play for a while, and he may come back later, and I will introduce you to it then!" By the way, did Second Uncle Lu send you here this time? ”
"Master, I would like to ask you how your plan is. When autumn came, he said he didn't know if he could hold it! ”
"What?" Lu Zuo was stunned, "We must hold on, we must wait until we recommend the next candidate!" ”
"But that An Shiqing is really powerful, recently he will always organize a small force to constantly invade Shanzhou, and the signs of cooperation between the Great Fan State and the Qita State seem to be getting more and more impatient! Master asked me to ask if there is any way you can stabilize them! Chen Huizhi looked slightly anxious.
Lu Zuo lowered his head and thought for a long time, "Is there a brother in Kyoto?" ”
Chen Huizhi nodded, "Yes!" The younger brother is the leader of the Green Forest Alliance of the Seven Provinces, and there are also our brothers in this Kyoto! ”
"Good! You find a reliable brother to send a message to Second Uncle Lu, saying that if they don't have the same heart and mind now, and Shanzhou will be lost before autumn, then they won't get anything. At that time, after autumn, the army of the Han Dynasty would not rush to recover Shanzhou, but would choose to destroy Dafan. Lu Zuo's eyes were sharp, as if everything was under his control, "By the way, people must pass on the message." ”
Chen Huizhi nodded solemnly, "Senior brother, don't worry!" Then I'll send someone to hurry now!" ”
"By the way, let the messenger also tell my mother that she is safe. And you'll be back tonight, too! Bring me both of them back, and you won't go anywhere until I get you the proofs." Go and come back quickly! ”
Chen Huizhi respectfully answered "yes", went out, and climbed over the wall from the courtyard, disappearing in the dark night.
Lu Zuo waited anxiously in the house for a long time, and suddenly heard someone knocking lightly on the door. Lu Zuo stepped forward to open the door, and sure enough, Chen Huizhi came back from his errands, but when he saw Chen Huizhi standing at the door in a hurry, Lu Zuo asked with a straight face: "What about Lu Manxi and Qin Hong?" ”
Chen Huizhi pointed to the courtyard and replied, "The two of them are on the rockery, and they didn't dare to come!" ”
Lu Zuo said softly: "Call in, I'm not angry with them!" ”
Chen Huizhi seemed to have received an arrow, and turned around and ran back to shout. Lu Zuo straightened his clothes and sat back on the main seat of the hall. Leaning less, Chen Huizhi dragged a man and a woman into the house on the left and right, and the man was Lu Manxi, less than twenty years old, with a snowy face and a graceful demeanor. The woman was Qin Hong, but her face was slightly dark, but her facial features were clear and handsome. When the two of them saw Lu Zuo in the hall, they didn't dare to look at him squarely, so Chen Huizhi dragged him to the middle of the main hall.
The two of them knelt on the ground with a "poof", the two of them hung their heads and drooped their faces, "Senior brother, we know it's wrong!" ”
When Lu Manxi and Qin Hong plucked up the courage to look up again, they found that the senior brother really looked completely different from before, if it weren't for Chen Huizhi saying that he was Lu Zuo, the two of them still couldn't believe their eyes, and they couldn't help but stand up, and they both came to Lu Zuo to look up and down, and muttered from time to time: "This is ...... Incredible, incredible! Much more handsome than before! ”
Lu Zuo had a calm face, "Kneel back ......"
Lu and Qin were like squirrels in the lost soul, and immediately took two steps back and knelt on the ground respectfully, "Senior brother, we are here to see you this time, you are fine, we can go back to recover with confidence." ”
Lu Zuo tilted his face and ignored them. Qin Hong suddenly stood up, gathered in front of Lu Zuo, pinched his shoulders and beat his back, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't be angry!" We were also worried about your safety, and we saw that you had not replied, so we rushed over to have a look. ”
Lu Zuo was also ridiculous, "Okay, don't come with me, what do you mean to come and see me, I think you have long wanted to come and see the world of flowers in Kyoto!" ”
Lu Manxi smiled: "There is really nothing that can escape the eyes of the senior brother!" ”
Qin Hong hurriedly glared at Lu Manxi and muttered in a low voice, "You talk a lot of nonsense!" ”
"Let's get up!" Lu Zuo's tone was much more tactful, and then he said earnestly, "This Kyoto is not what you imagined to be a rich town, there are reefs and dangerous shoals everywhere, as long as it is with me, it is full of dangers." Now that I'm hugging the tiger pillow, how can I take care of the two of you, if something happens to you, how can I explain it to Second Uncle Lu! So you two have to leave after I get the guide these two days, do you hear? ”
Lu Manxi snorted, "Big ...... Big brother, you don't want to ...... Drive us away, it's alarmist, right? ”
Lu Zuo slapped the table with his hand, and Lu Manxi was so frightened that he knelt down again. Then Lu Zuo said angrily: "Why don't you believe my words!" You think I live in Kyoto just for fun! If you look at my face now, it was shaved by the enemy. With that, he rolled up his sleeves and exposed his wrists, "Do you see the scars on my wrists?" was picked off in prison, senior brother, I used to be able to pull out a thousand catties, but now I can't even kill a chicken with a knife! ”
Chen Huizhi and the three of them felt shocked when they saw it, and their faces suddenly turned pale. Qin Hong was even more teary-eyed, lying on his senior brother's knees, begging him, "Senior brother, since it is so dangerous here, let's go back to Shanzhou together, and go back to Fengji Mountain together, just over there, how good it is to live a carefree life like when we were children before." ”
At this moment, Lu Zuo's heart came up with a lot of past events, remembering that what he was most looking forward to at that time was to be able to follow Second Uncle Lu to Fengji Mountain, and then follow him to learn five studies, and take his younger brothers and sisters to catch wild game in the mountains, but that is all in the past, and it is impossible to go back to that time, since the moment he set foot on the land of Kyoto, all the good things have been missed by himself, and what has turned is the road of revenge that has been deliberate, and he knows that there must be someone to bear the burden, His younger brother Lu Renxiang can't do it, and his younger brothers and sisters can't do it, this task can only be borne by himself.
