Chapter 53: Silk

Pan Darong led Qi Wanli to his current residence.

It was a dilapidated house on the edge of Jiangqi City, the house looked very old, and when he opened the door, he was shocked.

Obviously from the outside it looks like an old and dilapidated house in the slums, but the inside is so delicate and gorgeous! The tables, chairs, beds and cabinets are all made of fine mahogany, and there are even handicrafts that are very rare in this era, and those sofas are made of expensive leather, and Qi Wanli, the "appraiser", can see at a glance that it is actually a whale skin with a market price of at least hundreds of gold ingots!

He glanced at Pan Darong in shock, Pan Darong had a bitter face, and shouted into the room: "Xiaosi, don't hide, it's me." ”

A chuckle like a silver bell was heard, and a wardrobe opened, and a woman jumped out.

This woman looked twenty-three or four-year-old, but her eyebrows, eyes, and expression revealed a childlike innocence and naivety, making her feel more like a girl. The clothes and jewelry she was wearing were all extremely valuable, and just looking at that one was at least a few hundred gold ingots, not to mention that when she jumped out of the cabinet, she could catch a glimpse of many of this woman's clothes in the cabinet.

"Brother Da Rong, you're back!" The woman named Xiao Si smiled like a flower, and she was about to pounce on Pan Da Rong, but Pan Da Rong did not resist, let Xiao Si hug her, and let her sit back on the sofa.

Pan Darong looked at Qi Wanli with a sad face and said, "Na, it's her." ”

Qi Wanli asked with a strange face: "You are obviously a golden house treasurer, why have you become blackmailed?"

"Well, listen to me. Pan Darong told his story bitterly.

About two months ago, Pan Darong passed by Jiangqi City, and then with his keen senses, he actually found that in the dry well of an abandoned courtyard, there was a faint sound of breathing.

Originally, he just took a look with curiosity, but he didn't want to look into the well, and the woman in the well, who was dying, ragged, and withered, also happened to open her eyes and glanced at him.

Of course, this woman is Xiao Si, in Pan Darong's words, Xiao Si's eyes at that time were like a kitten that was about to die, but still wanted to be spoiled, so that a man in his thirties could not refuse. As soon as his heart softened, he jumped into the dry well and rescued Xiaosi.

In fact, she had lost her memory and was mentally impaired, and like a child of five or six years old, she couldn't remember her own name. When I asked her name, she would just say, "Silk, Silk, I thought, this should be her nickname." Pan Darong said.

After that, he took Xiaosi to eat, buy a new set of clothes, and sent her to the yamen, thinking that this would be solved, but unexpectedly, the nightmare had just begun.

"In the yamen, she, she actually said that I was her brother!" Pan Darong said sadly and indignantly: "Let's say that she has amnesia and is stunned, when she had a meal with me, she not only remembered my name and preferences, but also remembered how much money I had in my bag and what kind of dishes I liked to eat!

"Moreover, as soon as I said I was leaving, she cried and said that I was going to throw her away! Tell me, how could I get out of that situation? There was no way, I could only take her with me first, it just so happened that I had come to Jiangqicheng to do business before, and I had a small dilapidated house...... That's it, so I'm going to settle her here first, and then slip away while she's asleep or something......"

"Unexpectedly, this little girl has a lot of requirements! The wooden bed is hard and refuses to sleep, and must have velvet sheets; the chair is too old to sit on, and the mahogany chair must be because 'it smells good'; and she is happy when there are beautiful handicrafts where the eyes can see...... As long as one is not satisfied, she will cry and make trouble!

Pan Darong snorted and said with tears in his eyes: "I have worked hard to save the money for so many years, and I even secretly fished a handful from Miao Fu's warehouse at the beginning, and in a few days, I have all explained it here! After buying the furniture, she thinks that the clothes are uncomfortable to wear! At least I want silk! Later, one piece is not enough, because after wearing it for a day, I will put on the noodles and have gray!"

"Anyway, this eldest lady, food, shelter and clothing, all are top requirements, as long as there is a dissatisfaction, crying and making trouble are the minimum, serious and even play suicide, once I was really annoyed, hid for three days, she really didn't eat anything for three days, and then cried while trying to jump into the river...... Mom, I really am, I can't get out!"

Qi Wanli's face became more and more strange the more he listened, and he asked, "So, you have done the work of catching rapes for others and making money...... Subsidize the family?"

"It's not just about catching traitors. Pan Darong said sadly: "Running errands, delivering letters, and working as coolies...... Haven't you noticed that the mercenary union in the city is very deserted? That's because in the past two months, the entire mercenary union has been monopolized by me alone! You don't know how much it costs to raise this eldest lady!"

Qi Wanli sighed twice, and then asked, "You haven't thought about finding her real family?

"Don't say it, there really is. ”

Pan Darong glanced at Xiao Si in the corner of the room, and at this time she was happily fiddling with a small toy, which the two of them bought casually on the way back just now.

"Silk appeared in the dry well before and almost died, there must be a cause and effect for this. I probably looked into it and found out something. In the first two or three days when I found her, a group of outsiders stayed in Jiangqi City for two or three days, and they didn't do anything, they just walked around the city every day, and they were mysterious. I guess there's a good chance they're looking for Silk. ”

"And although Thready has amnesia and feels a little stupid, she is actually very sensitive, just like I just said that she can remember my hobbies in a very short time. She must have found out that these people wanted to be unfavorable to her, so she hid in the dry well, but she didn't have the ability to climb out by herself, so she almost starved to death in the dry well......"

"Well, your inference is quite well-founded. Qi Wanli nodded casually: "Then you continue to work hard to find her background." By the way, when will you pay back what you owe me?"

Pan Darong's body trembled slightly, and he smiled: "Brother, how can I owe you anything?"

"Oh, you owe me two things. Qi Wanli smiled very cruelly: "Do you think that if there is a little girl here, I really won't do anything to you, right? ”

Pan Darong sighed, shook his head and said, "The house leak happened to rain overnight...... Brother, what do you want me to do? But I also said in advance, you have also seen my current situation, and I really can't do anything earth-shattering. ”

At this moment, Silk's hand slipped, and the small toy in her hand accidentally fell to the ground and fell into three pieces.

"Brother Big Banyan!"

She cried out with a sad face, "The puppy has broken!"

The little toy was a puppy with a small wooden block strung with silk threads, which was very unreliable, and of course it would break if it fell.

Pan Darong hurriedly jumped up, sat down next to Xiaosi, hugged her, gently patted her head, and comforted her in a low voice.

Qi Wanli's face became a little more strange, and after he looked at the not very big room again, he asked, "No, Pan Darong." In this room...... There's only one bed. ”

Pan Darong's face instantly became embarrassed, he coughed twice, and said: "That, you misunderstood, I usually sleep on the sofa, and I don't want to do this, but as long as I'm not there, Xiaosi will make trouble, and I can't ......help it."

Qi Wanli frowned and said: "Even if someone has lost her memory and her intelligence has been affected, she is still a girl, you have to pay attention, if you find her parents and family in the future, or if she recovers her memory, how can you explain this?"

Somehow, he actually trained Pan Darong like a disciple, and the other party responded resignedly.

After a while, Pan Darong finally calmed Xiaosi and coaxed her to go outside to play by herself for a while.

Seeing Xiaosi jumping out of the house, Pan Darong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Aren't you afraid that she will run away outside and get lost by herself?" Qi Wanli asked in disbelief.

Pan Darong waved his hand: "No, no, no, she has a good memory, even if she walks around the city, she can't lose it." And she is very sensitive, more flexible than a kitten or a puppy. ”

"Not only that, but you also left a charm on her, right?" Qi Wanli glanced at Xiaosi through the window and said.

Pan Darong scratched his head: "Brother, you really deserve the name of Master Wanli, the last time I saw you, you were a third-order martial artist, although your brain is easier to use and your martial arts skills are more special, but your strength is still a lot worse than now, and you can even sense the secret spell I left now?"

That's what the dark element senses.

Qi Wanli smiled mysteriously: "Yes, the last time we met, you were able to subdue me in a second, and now, I can hang you up and beat me." ”

Pan Darong sighed, muttered a few words, and asked, "Say, what do you want me to do?"

Qi Wanli sneered: "It's very simple, I'm going to the capital, and I have something to ask for the Hanging Pavilion Li Pavilion Master." Well, you're in for a great gift. ”

"You!"

Pan Darong gritted his teeth: "You promised me that what you wanted me to do would not put my life in danger!"

"Oh?" Qi Wanli narrowed his eyes: "You mean, if you follow me to see Pavilion Master Li, you will be in danger of your life?" It seems that your ability is indeed suspicious." ”

“......”

Pan Darong, who was trapped, sighed again: "Big brother, can we change the requirements? ”

"So be it. Qi Wanli said: "The last time you told me about your method of obtaining this special ability, you obviously fooled me. Now, tell me honestly how exactly you got this special cultivation method, then I can think about it and ask for a different one. ”

Pan Darong's eyes rolled: "But, if you asked me to say this, is it considered a request?"

Qi Wanli's body was filled with a dangerous aura.

Pan Darong cleared his throat: "That, just kidding, don't get excited...... I'll tell you right now. ”
