Chapter 34 The Imperative
"Sister, my name is Chen Dan, and I am a ghost messenger who was trafficked here, I ...... I'm going to be buried tonight, and I can still eat such delicious walnut crisp before I die, and I don't have any last wishes when I die. Chen Dan spoke almost always in a low voice.
"What do you mean? Why be buried? Did you do something wrong? ”
Chen Dan shook his head at her, "No, I didn't do anything, I came here voluntarily." ”
"A few months ago, my father owed a lot of money due to gambling, our family was relatively poor, and he had always made straw sandals for a living and couldn't get any money, so he sold his sister to the Qinglou, and my mother was beaten by the people in the Qinglou in order to save my sister, and my father broke her leg when she came back, and now she is sick in bed and can't get up."
"I want to rescue my sister, and I also want to cure my mother's illness, but I can't think of any way, so I go to someone else's house to be a person, I only did it for a month, and I took the money to the Qinglou to find the bustard, begging her not to ask my sister to pick up guests, but the bustard blasted me out, and I couldn't see my sister."
"When I returned home, I wanted to find Langzhong for my mother, but my father robbed me of my money after seeing me, my father did not change his temperament, and continued to gamble, my mother's illness has been dragging on, I went everywhere to borrow money, but no one was willing to help me."
"What's your father's name, and where is he?" Xu Luoyang knows that in modern times there are people who are guilty of gambling. Bo sold his wife and children, causing the family to be ruined, I really didn't expect this to happen to her today.
When Chen Dan said this, some tears flowed out of his dry eyes, he looked very tired and tired, and his eyes could still flow tears.
"My father's name is Chen Wu, he is from Shaanxi, but I don't know where he is now, I hate him, I hate him very much, I should have gone to the police to arrest him."
Chen Dan is only nine years old, but his eyes are full of resentment at this time, that kind of powerless hatred, Chen Dan gritted his teeth, he really hated his father to death.
Xu Luoyang could see his pain, she didn't know how to comfort him, but she was very sympathetic to his suffering: "Tell me, is your sister still in Qinglou?" I have the money to help you, and to help your mother heal. ”
Xu Luoyang's matter with Chen Dan, she thought of those poor children in the welfare home, and she wanted to fight for him at this moment in her heart.
Chen Dan looked up at Xu Luoyang, and it was difficult to look at him this time. Accept, sister, she should be like this and live well, not fragrant and jade.
Chen Dan: "My sister has passed away to protect me, and my mother has also left, I only received this news a few days ago." ”
"Let's go...... Let's go! Xu Luoyang's face froze, and then looked at Chen Dan.
He was so young that he suffered such a thing.
Chen Dan: "Originally, when I was sold here by my father to be a ghost, I hated him very much at first, but he said that the money from selling me could redeem my sister and cure my mother's illness, and I also saw that my sister came back in person, and there was a Lang Zhong who treated my mother at home, but this result was that he sold me." ”
"As long as my sister can come back, my mother will be cured, and it doesn't matter if I sacrifice me, because I only want my sister and mother to live, so I came to this place with my father, listened to their words, and became a ghost here."
"At first, I didn't know what a ghost was, they just told me to go through a ritual and just be responsible for crying, I thought it was that simple, but when I heard that they were going to bury me on the night of the 14th to Po Sa Niang Niang as a child, I was very opposed, but they said that if I didn't do this, I would kill my sister and my mother."
"I can only do what they want, but when I know that my sister was sent to the Qinglou again, and was tortured to death, and my mother finally desperately went to the Qinglou to beg for my sister's life and was beaten to death by the bustard, I was already disheartened, and I hated my father even more, it was he who caused us to be like this."
"I hate my powerlessness, my sister is so kind, my mother is very forgiving and kind to everything, why do they have such an ending, I really want to take my father S, it's obviously his fault but we have to bear it."
Xu Luoyang: "Chen Dan ......"
Chen Dan's words were not as childish as a child, and his tone Xu Luoyang heard that he hated his father a lot, and there was a lot of unwillingness.
"Chen Dan, I'll take you away." Xu Luoyang is now bent on taking Chen Dan away, she tried to pry open the iron chain, but this iron chain can be opened by ordinary people.
Chen Dan: "Sister, it can't be knocked on without a key, you better go!" Thank you for bringing walnut crisp, I was able to eat such a delicious snack before I died, and I really died without regrets. ”
Xu Luoyang picked up the iron chain and tried to find out where the lock was, but she couldn't find it, and her palms were still brown and rusty, so she began to look for the big iron ball, but she didn't find it.
How can this thing not find a place with a lock?
"Chen Dan, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you today, and my sister will protect you."
Chen Dan looked back at Xu Luoyang desperately for himself, and his heart was warmly caressed. touched, and the dimness in his eyes instantly had a glimmer of light.
"Quick, let's go over and bring that kid, we'll take the bounty and leave for the last time tonight."
"Yes, then you don't have to worry about it."
"This person should live for money in the world, and do whatever he should do after taking the money."
Xu Luoyang heard the sound of someone talking on the opposite wall, and she was still walking this way, she was still looking for where the lock was, and she couldn't pull it open when she wanted to.
Chen Dan walked over, his eyes flustered: "Sister, you go quickly, they are coming, if they find out that you are here to save me, they will definitely not let you leave." ”
Xu Luoyang: "Damn, is there nothing you can do?" ”
"Chen Dan, don't be afraid. My sister said that she would save you, and she would save you, and she would beat as many people as they came. ”
Chen Dan has seen them beating people, they are very fierce, they don't blink an eye, he has seen a person beaten until he foams at the mouth last time.
"No, sister, go quickly, can you go quickly! Please, you go quickly, I don't want anything to happen to you. ”
Xu Luoyang is very confident in his martial arts, "It's okay, sister, I have practiced martial arts." ”
Chen Dan didn't believe her words, and seeing that they were getting closer and closer here, he knelt down in front of Xu Luoyang: "Sister, I beg you to go." If you want to save me at night, you can, I don't have a chain on me at that time. ”
"Even if you can beat them now, I won't be able to leave, the chains on my body can't be opened without a key, and they may not have a key." Chen Dan didn't want Xu Luoyang to get involved here.
Seeing Xu Luoyang hesitating, Chen Dan kowtowed in front of her and said, "Please, leave quickly, I beg you." ”
Facing Chen Dan kneeling down and begging her, Xu Luoyang wanted to say something but couldn't say anything, and the voices of those people were getting closer and closer, Xu Luoyang had no choice but to say: "Chen Dan, you wait, my sister will come back to save you, I will." ”
After saying that, she went to the high wall where she had just jumped, and saw the walnut crisp carton on the ground, so she went over and picked it up in her hand, and then jumped up and down.
She stood behind the high wall and did not walk.
"Child, you can't blame us, if you want to blame your bad life, you can go on your way tonight!"
"Boy, find a good family when you are reincarnated in the next life."
"Don't talk nonsense, let's hurry up and lift the iron ball and get down to business! If the boss finds out that we haven't brought him over, he won't be able to eat and leave. ”
Xu Luoyang stood on the opposite side of the wall, wanting to jump over impulsively, and thought of what Chen Dan said as if he had beaten them and didn't have a key.
Chen Dan, you have to wait, my sister said that she would save you, and she would definitely save you.
There was no sound over there, and she left somewhere.
After she returned to the inn, Xu Luoyang panted and went to find Xiao Hanxi and knocked in front of Xiao Hanxi's door.
"Cold, cold, open, open!"
No matter how much she knocked on the inside, she didn't open the door, Xu Luoyang was in a hurry, so she went up directly and kicked it, and just when she was about to lift her foot, she had the strength to put it on her shoulder and pull her.
"Luo Yang, what's wrong? I heard you knock on my door from afar, and you still want to kick my door? ”
Xiao Hanxi threw it at her with a charming look, and her lips were still hooked with a slight smile, and there was a playful tone in her words.
As soon as Xu Luoyang turned around and saw him like this, she was first stunned, and then said her urgent matter: "Hanxi, Hanxi, do you know where Yunxiu's family is?" ”
"What's wrong?" Xiao Hanxi said unhurriedly.
Xu Luoyang didn't explain to him, knowing that he must know Li Yunxiu's family, so he hurriedly pulled him up.
Xiao Hanxi saw that she hurriedly pulled him, and also followed her footsteps, asking as he walked, "Luo Yang, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Go find Yunxiu, she will definitely be able to help me." Xu Luoyang said.
Xiao Hanxi didn't understand what it was, he noticed Xu Luoyang pulling his sleeve and said, "What are you talking about?" What Yunxiu can help you, can't I? ”
Xu Luoyang: "Let me tell you, I'm going to save a child, and if I want to save him, I'll do my homework first to understand the situation, which is useful for rescue." ”
"Huh? Who are you going to save? Tell me, just help you, you don't need to ask Yunxiu. Xiao Hanxi said.
Xu Luoyang: "No, you can't understand this, take me there first and then tell you what happened." ”
After leaving the inn, Xiao Hanxi didn't ask any more questions, but walked in front of her and walked in the direction of West Street.
Halfway through this, Xiao Hanxi was always thinking about Xu Luoyang pulling his sleeves, he had squandered it for many years in his life, this was the first person to hold him and hold him so dismissively.
"Luo Yang, did you take me just now?" Xiao Hanxi asked her leisurely.
Xu Luoyang looked at the road in front of him, and consciously replied to him: "Then what?" ”
What do you mean then?
If he had asked her and not me, how could he have asked him the other way around.
"Well, I'm asking if you think there's something like that?"
Xu Luoyang didn't think much about it, "What's there, you shouldn't be misunderstanding something!" ”
Thinking that this is in ancient times, it is not as open as modern times, and even if it is placed in modern times, holding a man's hand is still a little misleading.
Xiao Hanxi didn't answer, but was waiting for her answer, with some anticipation on her face of what she would do.
Xu Luoyang pointed at him with his finger: "Hanxi, don't worry, this girl was in a hurry at the time, so she will reach out to pull you, if you think it is infringing on you, make amends, I can buy some delicious food for you, and I will apologize." ”
"How?"
Xiao Hanxi thought she would reply coquettishly: "I'm sorry, I accidentally bumped into my son." ”
was also worried that it was because of his intentions, and it seemed that he was thinking too much.
"Okay, I'll go back to you."
“OK。” Xu Luoyang gave him an "OK" gesture.
This time, Xiao Hanxi was dizzy, and he also followed her with an "OK" gesture, and he didn't understand what it meant when he looked at it.
They walked more than ten zhang before they stopped at a mansion where the plaque under the eaves of the mansion read the words "Li Mansion", and there were two subordinates guarding the door in front of the door.
Xiao Hanxi pointed with a white jade tiger fan: "It's here, that's it." ”
