Chapter 64: Entering the Official Gate for the First Time
Gentleman? It's the first time I've heard the title of the eldest young master of the Luo family, but it's right to think about it, since the Luo family has a second young master, naturally there will also be a young master.
However, according to Luo Mu's father, the eldest young master of the Luo family is not simple, the older generation of the Luo family has passed away a long time ago, and now the entire official family is almost in the hands of the eldest young master of the Luo family, this person is called Luo Yun.
Luo Yun, Luo Yu, turning clouds and rain, this name is really interesting.
"Why are you called Romu?" I asked the lads, and I was curious about where their names came from.
"Our official family is divided into the upper door, the middle door and the lower door. But as far as my generation is concerned, the door is named after wind, rain, thunder and lightning, the middle door is named after the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the lower door is named after flowers, birds, plants and trees! ”
"So, you are from the Luo family?"
"Yes, naturally he is also the least valued person, specializing in the business of inquiring about and finding his way on the periphery."
"And what kind of person is Luo Yun?" I asked Romu.
"He is different from his younger brother, and unlike Luo Yu's flowers and grass, Luo Yun took on the responsibility of the Luo family early on, this person is thoughtful, and he is very difficult to approach people everywhere."
No wonder the proprietress told us that the Luo family is not easy to enter, and if you want to enter the Luo family, you have to find a way.
"Mu'er is right, now the Luo family is not as good as before, they are very wary of people and things, if someone enters, they will first suspect whether it is a spy sent by Shimen and Huamen."
"According to what you mean? If we want to treat Luo Yu, we have to pass Luo Yun first! Grandpa Sun asked Luo Mu his father.
"Well, at least you have to make him think that he is worthy of his trust."
"So how do you get him to trust?"
"Then we'll have to get in the door!"
——
The Luo family's house is located at the foot of Lizi Mountain, the whole courtyard has at least hundreds of rooms, green bricks and green tiles, the houses extend from the foot of the mountain to the halfway up the mountainside, if they are all dyed yellow, I thought I had arrived at the palace, all in all, it is called a momentum.
Grandpa Sun and I followed Luo Mu and his father through the first gate, and an old man in a dark robe and coat received us.
This old man is like the housekeeper of a big family, and he is dressed in the past, I can't help but sigh, what age is this, and there are really such people?
Father Luo Mu pulled the old man aside, and I didn't hear them say anything, but after a few minutes, the old man said to us, "Leave everything behind, go in!" ”
My mobile phone and Grandpa Sun's precious pocket were all detained by this old man. "I won't lose it!" I'm a little worried, Grandpa Sun's baby has been in his pocket for some years, and if he loses it, the loss will be great.
"It's okay! This big family is all reputable, and if you don't talk about this reputation, how can you mix in the road! Grandpa Sun patted me on the shoulder.
We were invited into the side hall by the attendants, and Father Romu said that he was going to attend an emergency meeting of the family, and after a while, delicious dishes were served on the table.
Stewed elbows, sauerkraut and white meat, chicken and mushrooms, hey, this official family is worthy of a big family, and he is particular about doing things.
Just as I was about to pick up the chopsticks, I suddenly remembered something, "This dish, there will be no problem!" ”
Grandpa Sun smiled, "It's okay, let's eat, come out, and make your guts smaller." ”
"What if you have some medicine or something, what can you do if you leave us here!"
"This is the hospitality of the big family, people who come eat first, and then talk about other things."
"Damn, why does it sound like a Hongmen banquet."
The porridge in the morning had already been digested, and Grandpa Sun and I had a full meal, ready to listen to the greetings.
About an hour later, we were ushered into the main hall of the Luo family by the attendants, and I looked around, it was called a grand style.
The main hall is supported by four large straight pillars, each of which is thick by one person, and the grain is very uniform, and it can be seen that it is a good wood that comes once in a century.
The carved beams and painted columns on the beams of the house, are some light color reliefs, the carving is extremely fine, a plaque is hung in the middle of the main hall, the gold characters on the blue background, and the carving of Fulong is all around.
The four big characters on the plaque are half a meter high, and they are written as "official shelter for future generations".
This main hall is like the emperor's Jinluan Palace, which is dazzling.
On a chair in the middle of the main hall sat a man with a serious expression, about forty years old, and the others stood respectfully on either side, and no one dared to say much.
Looking at the posture, the figure sitting in the middle of the main hall should be Luo Yun.
"This is the person you brought?" The man raised his eyelids and said to Luo Mu's father, who was still holding a jade bracelet in his right hand as he said this.
The beads on the bracelet are all full of green, and it is estimated that it is also a very expensive item.
Luo Mu's father quickly nodded and said "yes".
This person just looked up at me and Grandpa Sun, but his face was still expressionless, but his appearance was very serious, and his temperament was naturally majestic, which made people shudder.
"Do you have any real skills, have you ever tried the water?" The man continued.
"Not yet, not yet, it's urgent!" Luo Mu's father hurriedly responded.
I always feel that this person is unlikely to trust us, Luo Yu is the second young master of the Luo family, he has long been sick, and he knows with his feet that the gentleman who sees the doctor must have invited a lot, just us two hairy boys, how can they easily believe it.
"You know the second young master's illness, life and death are at stake, if you can cure it, it's fine, if you can't cure it, you have a few lives to accompany you!"
In this way, if it comes out of the mouth of an ordinary person, it must be powerful, but when it comes out of his mouth, he is still expressionless, this person is too deep!
After listening to him say this, my heart also began to beat wildly, it seems that treating Luo Yu is not as simple as a doctor treating a patient, if you usually see a doctor, there is nothing wrong with seeing a doctor badly, this is good, maybe you have to take your life.
Luo Mu's father hurriedly said with a smile on his face, "Our lives are cheap, naturally not worth a few dollars, but the second young master's life is worth a lot, they dare to take this errand, there must be some real skills, the second young master's illness is urgent, I am afraid of delay, so I brought them over directly." ”
"I haven't even tried the water, so it's too bold!"
"Are these two young people reliable?"
"What if the second young master is cured!"
……
The crowd on both sides resounded with doubts, and everyone was talking about it, and there was obviously only one topic of discussion, that is, whether we could do the job.
I also have a lot of doubts in my heart, what does it mean to test the water in their mouths? Save people, save people, why do you come to test the waters.
Grandpa Sun coughed, "To tell you the truth, the second young master's illness can only be treated on the night of the full moon, and tomorrow night will be fifteen, and there will be no such shop in this village after that." ”
Although Grandpa Sun didn't speak loudly, it had a deterrent effect, and everyone was silent.
I saw that the man sitting in the middle frowned, as if weighing the pros and cons, and waved his hand, and called the two rows of "ministers" standing in front of him, and there they discussed.
I leaned up to Daddy Romu, "What are they talking about?" ”
"This kid has what he says, it works!"
I didn't understand what Daddy Luo meant.
"The second young master has been sick for some years, and it's not that he hasn't seen anyone before, whether it's Lang Zhong or a Taoist priest, it doesn't matter if it can't be cured, but it will be cured for a while, and then I found a big fairy to calculate, when he is forty years old, if someone takes the initiative to ask Ying, he will be cured of his illness on the night of the full moon!"
"According to what you mean, Grandpa Sun mentioned fifteen just now, and it was in response to what Da Xian'er said at that time?"
"How old is that Luo Yu this year?" Grandpa Sun also asked.
"Exactly forty!"
"Hey, it's really an evil sect, it's better to come early than to come by chance!" My voice was a little louder, and it drew some eyes.
"That being said, but the mule is a horse, and they have to be pulled out for a walk, they won't believe you so easily, if a charlatan comes and says anything about fifteen or something, then won't they be deceived?"
While a few of us were whispering, the man sitting in the middle retreated, and everyone stood in their original positions.
"Water, you don't have to try it, just take them into the eight formations of the official gate, if they can break the formation, let them treat Luo Yu." The person in the middle said.
