Chapter 65: The Frog at the Bottom of the Well
We retreated from the main hall and waited on the side, I asked Luo Mu's father, "In the middle of the main hall, with a serious expression and a string of jade beads in his hand, is it Luo Yun, the eldest young master of the Luo family in your mouth!" ”
"Yes!" Father Romu nodded.
"Tsk, if I'm not mistaken, he should be a generation younger than you! Look at people, the one who is high up is called a spirit, looking at you, why are you so obscene? "I'll hear Luo Mu talk about the issue of naming, if Luo Mu and Luo Yun are in the same generation, Luo Mu's father will naturally be the same generation as Luo Yun.
"You!" Luo Mu's father was flushed with anger, and he wanted to be angry at me, but he pressed it down again, sighed and said, "People are from good backgrounds, and they have accumulated virtue in their previous lives." ”
Hehe, I smiled secretly in my heart, I also accumulated virtue in my last life, although this ** is a door-to-door person, but it is not much better? Luo Yu is not like this because of the sins he did in his previous life!
Since he wasn't angry, I had to ask the question, "What do they mean by testing the waters?" ”
"Ao, I know this, that is, before treating Luo Yu, I have to find a dying person who is also suffering from evil diseases to show him, and then make a decision. In the past, we used to follow this procedure when we introduced people. ”
"Damn, what's this called? If this can be cured, it will be fine, but if it can't be cured, and you will encounter charlatans - wouldn't that be a joke with people's lives? When he said this, I was very angry.
"What's the solution, the people who come to the door are noble, unlike us people, who are cheap at the grassroots."
"You people, you're too backward!"
"However, this is not a useful method, tomorrow will be fifteen, and it is too late to find someone who is about to die, and even if it is found, it will take a few days to treat the disease, and it will not be enough in terms of time. Even if there is enough time, if you test the water first and cure others as before, you may not be able to cure Luo Yu! ”
"Yes, what you say is human, you have to go to the root to cure the disease!"
Grandpa Sun glared at me, probably reminding me not to leak out about Moyu, and also counted me down, "Each family has its own rules, what does it have to do with you!" ”
Just now, Luo Yun's mouth mentioned the words "Eight Formations of the Official Gate", what did it mean? He also said let's enter the battle, what is this array, and is there any danger to life? The name "Eight Formations of the Official Gate" sounds imposing, and it doesn't feel like a good thing.
"What the hell is that Eight Formations of the Official Gate? If we can't break through, will we hang here before we see Luo Yu? I asked Luo Yu's father.
"Can you break in, can you go back?" Grandpa Sun gave me a blank look.
Luo Mu's father took a few puffs of "pop pop", "I don't know either!" ”
"Why don't you know, aren't you from Romon?" And expect this man to explain it to us.
He raised his eyelids and glanced at me, his expression a little disdainful, "Whoever told you that the people of the Romans must have seen the Eight Formations of the Guanmen, and they are dealing with outsiders, not their own people." ”
"Dad, although the two of them are outsiders, they are newcomers, and they will definitely not be able to find a way out when they encounter things, you can help them find a way!" Luo Mu also persuaded his father.
"Hey! You stinky boy? Why did he turn his elbow outward. See I don't pump you! After saying that, he picked up the cigarette pouch and wanted to beat him.
"Dad, have you forgotten that you are poisonous, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, restraining each other, if they can't break through the eight formations of the official gate, this person is recommended by us, do you think the eldest young master of the Luo family can let us go?"
If this kid didn't mention this stubble, I would have forgotten about it, there was no poison in the first place, Luo Mu actually threatened his father with this, it seems that his father was right, he really turned his elbow out.
After listening to his son's words, Luo Mu's father no longer seemed to be stubborn, knocked the cigarette bag and pot on the sole of his shoe, and pulled back the conversation, "The matter is urgent, with our status in the official family, we may not be able to find out anything, and we can't have much hope for this matter." ”
"Okay, a drop of water can quench our thirst, maybe a little message will help us."
Luo Mu's father turned around and left, leaving the three of us behind, originally wanted Luo Mu to take us for a stroll, strolling around the front and back yards of the "palace", but this Luo family is heavily guarded, and there are doormen on every floor, so it is not something that can be visited if you want to.
I'll have to wait anyway, I'll have to find something to talk to the young man, because I think this guy is pretty reliable.
"Alas! How old are you? I asked him.
"Twenty-two!"
"Have you ever studied?"
"High school!"
"Why didn't you go to college?"
"The official door will not let it!"
Damn, what is this called, everyone has the right to education, and he is deprived of this right no matter how he says it, he will be deprived.
"Then you plan to stay in this Luomen Town for the rest of your life and not go out?"
Luo Mu glanced at the sky, "The fate of the next door is not something I can control, I have long been a frog at the bottom of the well." ”
He was right, although I hadn't been in the Luo family's compound for a long time, but when I was in the main hall just now, I could see that Luo Mu's father was standing at the end of the two rows of "ministers", and he must have no status.
Somehow, I have a heartfelt closeness to this kid, which may have something to do with our origins, I came out of a small mountain village, and I came out of the "half-life village" by my own efforts, and I don't want him to restrain myself like this.
"Have you ever thought that the place where you live without you is a circle, a very small circle, how big the world outside the circle is, if you don't go out for a walk, you will never go to the outside world!"
"Huh!" He glanced at me and sneered, "What's wonderful, what's not wonderful, in the end, it's not like I'll live in a coffin in Rohmon Town!" Even if there is a thousand-year-old iron threshold, there will eventually be a soil steamed bun. ”
Hey, this kid is still a little literate, and he choked me up. No, how can I lose to a high school student as a college graduate, he is so young, I have to open his horizons.
"Yes, you're right, although everyone's end point is the same, but the process is different, some people go to the muddy swamp along the way, and in the end they step on a foot of mud, and some people go up the mountain all the way to the flowers, and in the end they have a fragrance of flowers! Yes, everyone is buried in the coffin, but it makes a difference whether you go in with the mud or the scent. ”
Luo Mu seemed to hear this, and after thinking about it, it seems that this kid is not a person who does not eat oil and salt, as I imagined!
"Look at what age this is, what kind of door is your Luo family divided into, middle door, and lower door, I also understand what you said about the name of the family, you sit in the middle of the main hall, that Luo Yun is a generation, he is so majestic because he was born at the door, and you can get good, come as soon as you call, linger away, and the bench above will never sit down!"
After saying this, I saw the young man bite his lip, as if he was holding a breath in his heart.
Seeing him like this, I hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, "The era is different, you think that your livelihood is very important, in fact, the city has long been useless, what can you do now, the popular urn, if you make the urn, it is better than a coffin!" "You're right, now the official family is not as good as before!"
"So you yourself know that they are all frogs at the bottom of the well, but it's not just you, the entire official sect is, and what kind of dragon and tiger are fighting with the Shimen Huamen in this small Luomen Town, and the one who really goes out is the big winner. My family is just one son, and I didn't go out of college yet, but I didn't know how wonderful the outside world was until I went out. ”
After saying this, there was a light in my eyes, and I knew that my words had touched him, just like the proprietress said, he was indeed different from his father, and I didn't want him to hide here, otherwise there would be no need for more tongues.
Grandpa Sun didn't speak beside him, and finally said, "Let me ask you about someone?" ”
"Oh! Who, you say! ”
"Xu Man, do you know it!"
Don't look at the lot of white breath I just had there, it's all useless, Grandpa Sun just asked the point!
"Xu Man! Xu Man! Luo Mu muttered the name and thought about it.
Before Luo Mu could answer our question, a man broke into the house, it was his father.
"Uncle, how's it going? Did you ask it? I quickly asked.
"It's a bit of a door, but it's just a little skin, and I don't know if I can help it!"
"Hurry up!"
"In fact, the eight formations of the official gate are not eight formations, but one formation!"
