Chapter 116: The Insiders Are Afraid of Life
The young man stretched out his left hand, which was not holding a sword, and caught the longevity lock, as if he had adopted Meng Yu's suggestion, and carefully stared at the longevity lock and Meng Yu's face back and forth for a long time. Then he put the sword into its scabbard, and when he turned around, he disappeared.
Meng Yu bandaged Mu Zha and escorted him for a long time, knowing that Mu Zha confirmed that he was fine, Meng Yu turned around and went back. But when I ran home and asked, no one came to collect the money at all.
But my father, seeing that she just threw the longevity lock to an unknown thug, was furious and locked her up for half a month.
"What's the secret of this longevity lock?"
Meng Yu looked upside down at the strange pattern on the silver lock, puzzled.
It didn't take long for Luo Shen to return, with a hint of the winter chill of Chang'an.
He threw a package to Meng Yu, and when Meng Yu opened it, it was a set of women's fur jackets and a thin mask.
"Put it on, the carriage is already outside. We will go to the west gate and wait, and as soon as the city gate is opened, we will set out. ”
"Let me change into women's clothes?"
"Yes, if you really want to avoid that person, you listen to me."
"Oh. Good. ”
Luo Shen went out to wait for her first, Meng Yu changed into the men's clothes on his body and put on the clothes that Luo Shen brought her.
The quality of the mask he brought was much better than that of the "Thousand Faces" one, holding it in his hand, it was as thin as a cicada's wings, and when he applied it to his face, he felt that the skin inside could breathe.
Meng Yu looked at the face of another mediocre woman who appeared in the bronze mirror, and was very satisfied:
"This mask is so high-end, he can breathe on its own, and when you look back, you must ask him where the mask is made."
Luo Shu took Meng Yu and went to a wonton breakfast stall next to the West Gate first, and asked for a bowl of green onion wontons for him and Meng Yu.
"Eat, the gates should be opened."
"Luo Injury, you don't have to be so nice to me. I can't stand it. “
"Didn't I tell you? I do this only because you are the master of the longevity lock. Stop talking and eat ravioli. ”
After Luo Shu finished speaking, he took the chopsticks and ate the wontons by himself.
There was the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and it looked a little scary on the streets of Chang'an in the early morning, which was not yet bright.
Luo put down his chopsticks, pulled out a needle from his cuff, and inserted it behind his ear.
Meng Yu just watched his face, and instantly became five years old, and his appearance changed greatly.
He took another pill from another bottle and swallowed it, and his blue eyes slowly turned black.
"Luo Injury, you?"
"From now on, don't talk."
As soon as Luo Shuang's words fell, Yuan Lie came to them.
"Strongman, have you seen a young man with a pockmarked face passing by here?"
"We just got here to eat wontons, and we haven't met the people you mentioned."
Luo Shen raised his head and looked at Yuan Lie very calmly.
Yuan Lie let out an "oh" in disappointment, and just wanted to leave, his eyes were attracted by the silent little lady sitting opposite Luo Injury.
"Excuse me."
Yuan Lie got off the horse, walked up to Meng Yu, and asked her.
Luo Shu hurriedly interrupted Yuan Lie's words:
"I'm sorry, my family is extremely afraid of people on weekdays, so it's better not to talk to this hero."
Yuan Lie nodded, smiled apologetically at Meng Yu and Luo Shu, and walked out with a hint of hesitation, but finally got on the horse, turned the horse's head, and galloped away.
"Reluctant?"
Luo Shen saw Meng Yu staring at the direction Yuan Lie left in a daze, and asked her while pulling out the silver needle at the back of his head.
"No, I'm just praying that I won't meet him in the future."
Meng Yu replied softly.
Luo Shu took Meng Yu on the road, and along the way, Meng Yu lay in the carriage with a luxurious interior, feeling more and more uncomfortable.
"Luo Injury, I think it's better for us to ride horses, sitting in a carriage, I always feel like we will be laughed at."
"The doctor said that you can't ride a horse for at least two months."
Meng Yu's face turned red, and he said "oh", and obediently went back to sit down.
Lifting the curtain and looking at the Chang'an City Tower that was getting farther and farther away, Meng Yu thought:
"My father and brother are right, Chang'an is really not a good place, and I will never come again in the future."
Winter has arrived, and everything on both sides of the road is sluggish, and Meng Yu is no longer full of spring when he came out of his home to roam the rivers and lakes.
Meng Yu lifted the curtain and looked at it for a while, all he saw was a dusty scene, and after a while, he retracted into the carriage again, and snapped his fingers in boredom.
Luo Injury, who was driving the car outside, seemed to know that she was starting to get bored, and finally took the initiative to chat with her:
"The emperor's decree will come to your house in the near future to issue a holy decree, so that you will come to Chang'an in the spring of next year to learn etiquette, and prepare to marry Tuyuhun and become the fourth princess. Do you know this? ”
"I've never heard of this, so I don't want to marry Tuyuhun. There's barren land everywhere, what am I going to do there? ”
Meng Yu jumped up suddenly, and lifted the curtain of the carriage, as if Luo Shen could decide whether to go Tuguhun or not.
"It's useless for you to tell me this, he didn't tell you about it?"
Luo Shu looked back at the excited Meng Yu, and felt a little funny in his heart.
He deliberately told her only half of the matter, just so that she could sit still in the carriage with something to think about in her heart.
Meng Yu naturally knew who the "he" in Luo Shen's mouth was.
"No, he didn't say a word."
"The emperor's decree cannot be resisted, and your father must have to obediently accept it. It seems that when you go back this time, you can only stay in Mohuo City for a while, and then you will have to go back to Chang'an. ”
"I'm not going back to this place anymore. I'm not going back to Camel City. Luo Injury, we will now turn around and go to Bashu. ”
Luo Wound's forever tense face showed a rare smile:
"If you don't obey the will, do you want the entire Meng family to be implicated? I'm telling you now, that is, to be mentally prepared not to fight with your father when you go back. ”
When Meng Yu heard this, he angrily shook the curtain and got into the carriage, ignoring Luo's injuries again.
In the evening, Luo Shen found an inn, stopped his horse, and helped Meng Yu down:
"The horses need to rest, you can't be too tired, we'll stay here tonight."
"Oh."
Luo Shen asked for two adjacent rooms, ordered some dishes with Xiao Er, and asked Xiao Er to bring them to his and Meng Yu's rooms respectively.
"Little Er, help me find a big bucket and fill it with hot water."
Meng Yu felt uncomfortable if he didn't take a bath for a day.
Xiao Er on the other end just wanted to say "Haole", but the Luo injury here has been vetoed:
"Xiao Er, take a basin and a foot basin, just get some hot water for her, don't have a big bucket."
As soon as Meng Yu wanted to argue with Luo Shen, Luo Shen glanced at him with cold eyes, and Meng Yu had to shut up.
On a winter day in the wilderness, the wind is especially strong at night.
Meng Yu was wrapped in a quilt, listening to the whirring wind outside, and only felt that the cold air was drilling.
Just as he was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, someone knocked on the door outside:
"Who?"
Meng Yu picked up the whip alertly.
"It's me, he'll be there soon. If you don't want to see him, go to my room and hide for a while. I'll wait for him in your room. ”
Meng Yu hurriedly wrapped the quilt and put on his shoes, and ran to the room next door where Luo was injured.
"You have to convince him not to look for me again."
Meng Yu admonished.
"Then do you still have any feelings for him?"
Meng Yu paused as he walked towards Luo's wounded room, and muttered for a long time:
“…… No, I broke off my love for him. ”
Luo Shu saw that Meng Yu had been holding back this sentence for a long time, and he already knew it in his heart:
"I see, you go in, I'll help you speak."
Meng Yu seemed to think of something, and told Luo Xian before closing the door:
"Don't hurt him, he's going to go to war."
Luo was dumbfounded:
"I won't."
Meng Yu closed the door with confidence and hid in Luo Shen's room.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the door of the inn to be violently kicked open.
Xiao Er, who was napping on the side, hurriedly rubbed his eyes and greeted him.
"How many masters are going to stay in the hotel, right?"
"We're here to find someone, where does the owner of the carriage parked in the yard live?"
Cheng Dashan stepped forward and asked viciously.
"Sir, there is a man and a woman in the carriage, I don't know who you are asking?"
"Female."
"It's just inside the stairs, the first room on the left."
Cheng Dashan just wanted to jump upstairs, but Yuan Lie stopped him:
"Dashan, you wait here, I'll go up alone."
"How are you? What about Meng Yu? ”
Yuan Lie saw that Luo Shen was sitting on the bed, looking like he had been waiting for him for a long time, so he was furious.
"She doesn't want to see you, let me come and pass you a message, don't look for her again."
"I don't believe it, where is she? Let her come out, I'll tell her myself. ”
Luo Hurt smiled disdainfully:
"Yuan Lie, I advise you, leave with your people quickly. The more you press like this, the farther and farther you will push. ”
Yuan Lie saw that he had been taught a lesson by Luo Injury, so he rushed forward, grabbed Luo Injury's collar, and lifted him up:
"It's not your turn to teach me a lesson."
Luo Shen raised his right hand lightly and pinched Yuan Lie's palm holding his collar, and Yuan Lie couldn't stand the pain and let go.
"Yuan Lie, you know how much you hurt her this time. She can't cut off her love for you now, so she advises you to accept it when she sees it, and give her a little space. If I force her like this again, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep the promise I made to her and kill you. ”
Luo's two different pupils also burst into flames.
"How's her injury?"
Hearing Luo Lie mention Meng Yu's injury, Yuan Lie's momentum was no longer so strong, and his tone eased down.
"I don't want to say, you can ask the old doctor who lives in the aphrodisiac hall yourself."
Yuan Lie nodded:
"I'll ask. It's just that I still want to know, when did you start liking her? ”
Luo Shen chuckled:
"Earlier than you, when she was fourteen. Muza and I both met her on that day. At that time, Muzha was rescued by her, and I was going to hunt down Muza. But rest assured, I didn't admit to her that I liked her. Not everyone is like you, who is trying to take things by themselves. I will never offend her in any way until she cuts off her affection for you. ”
Yuan Lie took out the Yiyuan Dan that Luo had given to Meng Yu before Luo was injured from his cuffs:
"I won't let her down again, you and Muza, never have this chance. You can give these two pills to her again. ”
After speaking, Yuan Lie glanced at the wall on the side, his eyes seemed to have penetrated the wall and saw Meng Yu.
He picked up the sword that had been placed on the desk before, and said to Luo Shu:
"Protect her."
I went downstairs with a bang.
Luo Shen pushed open the door of his room, and Meng Yu was curled up, sitting on his bed.
Seeing that Luo was back, her tone was a little frightened:
"He's gone, isn't he?"
"Well, let's go, I asked him to give you space, and he agreed. Go back to sleep, we're on our way tomorrow. ”
"Thank you, Locke."
"No, you don't."
Meng Yu returned to her room, and in the cold air, she seemed to be able to smell the familiar smell of Yuan Lie's body.
Meng Yu pushed open the window and watched a team of people leave the inn, and his heart was in a mess:
"After all, he didn't mean to, did he really just avoid him all the time?"
Another thought:
"I can't forgive him easily, otherwise, he will treat me like those women in Pingkangfang next time, and treat me roughly."
