Chapter 43 Ransom Medicine, Pick Scales, Pawn Daughter, Find Buyers, Return Money, and Fall into the Thief's Pit

He said that he was as jealous as a bamboo leaf in the sea, and his anger could not be quenched, and he got up and went to the city. Lu Mu and Lu Dunzi hurriedly stopped him. Lu Dunzi sighed: "The powerful singer and dance, the orchestra and the piano, the night feast, the day sleep, how can you care about our poverty?" Brother Hai is an ordinary foreigner, how is it their opponent, don't sacrifice your life in vain! Lu Mu added: "That's exactly what I said! Hai Zhuye said: "Aunt Lu, Brother Lu rest assured! Hai Zhuye once apprenticed to practice martial arts, and her fists and feet were acceptable, so she immediately went to Luoluo Tower, beat the bully, found medicine, and brought her back! Lu Dunzi grabbed Hai Zhuye and cried: "If Brother Hai really beats the powerful people to save my medicine, the entire poor area will be doomed!" Haizhuye threw a mouse bogey, and then asked: "If you can't move roughly, how should you rescue Yao'er?" Lu Mu continued: "Unless you take out a large sum of money and redeem the medicine according to the chapter!" Hai Zhuye smiled: "If there is a way, Hai Zhuye can do it!" When Lu Dunzi heard this, he asked: "Could it be that the Hai brothers have a lot of money?" Hai Zhuye replied with a smile: "The little brother has a way to get money, Brother Lu can rest assured!" When Lu Dunzi heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and said: "If Brother Hai can really save the little girl from the sea of suffering, it is better than sending cold clothes for thousands of miles!" My Lu Dunzi's life is Brother Hai's from now on! Hai Zhuye hurriedly leaned over to help him up, and said, "Brother Lu tortures the little brother!" Brother Lu's family is living in poverty but generously giving food, not to mention that I have this kindness, that is, when the road is uneven, Haizhuye should also draw a knife to help! Lu Dunzi sighed: "In Luoluo Tower, there are women who are collected from all directions, and they are mourning day and night!" How many parents are like me, heartbroken and heartbroken! Hearing this, Hai Zhuye's hair stood on end, his flesh trembled, and he sighed: "It's not a coincidence! Haizhu Ye will save the medicine tonight, and as for the rest, Xu Tuzhi! Lu's mother sighed: "If you delay it for one more day, countless innocent girls will be humiliated!" Although the old body is aware of his incompetence, he has to see good girls like flowers, one by one, and they are ravaged! Lu Mu bluntly burst into tears, and shocked the heart of the sea bamboo leaf hero, he thought secretly: "Yes! One more day of delay, and there will be more daughters with thin lives! What's the matter, I can't use the immortal method to punish those evil criminals, and deal with mortal affairs, I can only use mortal means, but I can't be in a hurry! Haizhuye intended to save one first, so he said: "Don't worry, no matter what else, before the rooster crows, you will bring the medicine back!" ”

Haizhuye returned the same way, and when he reached the west gate of the wealthy city, the city gate was closed, and the night watchman took turns to fight. The west gate of the city is used to isolate the rich and the poor, which is opened during the day and closed at night. Haizhuye took advantage of the gap and jumped into the city. The singing in the city is continuous, the lights are shining, there are drunks in brocade clothes lying down on the street corners, and there are endless disputes in the gambling house. Hai Zhuye secretly said angrily: "On the surface of the pomp of the day, it is such a dirty inside the night, but it's a pity that I praised it!" ”

Luoluo building high arch heavy eaves, wide door platform, bustling in front of the steps, noisy and noisy, it is the head of the string building, the population is not quiet. On both sides of the front door of the building, a group of women wear red and green, fat and pink fragrance, play treasure and sell well, each playing tricks, waving silk to welcome and send off guests. The red lantern on the courtyard reflected their cheeks, and they became more and more charming. On the verandah on the roof, there are also girls who hide their faces with fans, shy and charming, attracting benefactors from all walks of life to enjoy the flowers and willows, and there is an endless stream.

Sea bamboo leaves walked up the stairs. An older, vulgar and powdery aunt, slightly wrapped in a red satin frill dress, a green silk open-collared shirt, a crested fan, shaking a fragrant silk silk, spitting charm between her lips and teeth, showing a light charm in her demeanor, and greeting with a smile on her face: "Hey! Look at this son's brother, he is even more handsome than our four protectors of Luoluolou, Xiacui, Juanyu, Zhenmin, and Lingpo! This face is like a clear jade, and the lips are like vermilion, tsk - it's really a stunner among men! Aha-Brother Gongzi, if you come to our Luoluo Building, hey, this is wearing flowers, powder, draping, and pretending, and you will be able to take away all the guest officers, I'm afraid that other real girls will have to starve to death! Aha-" And said, the aunt and frivolous laughter, attracting the group of spring dreams and sweet wild people standing around, or covering their mouths with their hands, or raising their sleeves to half-cover their eyes, or lifting their skirts and pretending to go, or curling their hair and twisting their arms, and they all peeped sideways. Haizhuye sighed in his heart: "These women were all ignorant and ignorant daffodils, but they fell into this thief pit because of their own worries!" Wretched! Alas! He smiled and said, "Auntie has a good recommendation?" The aunt twisted her waist, waved the red silk fragrant silk in her hand, and said with a smile: "I just don't know which taste you have as a son, whether it is a pure, shy and silly girl, or a mature and charming sister; A cold and misanthropic ice beauty, or a passionate and hearty charcoal fire girl? As she spoke, she put her right hand on the shoulder of Haizhu Ye, shook the silk with her left hand, threw herself on the surface of Haizhu Ye, and said with a smile: "Or, what do you think of my aunt?" Aha-"

Haizhu Ye dignified Immortal Jun, who couldn't stand the vulgar smell of fat powder, flashed his head sideways, and said softly: "I heard one of my brothers say that there is a girl named Yao'er, thirteen or fourteen years old, cardamom years, born graceful and beautiful, very good. Why don't you attract this son to take a look? When the aunt heard this, she shouted in the goose's throat: "Oh, hey, hey! This is an old aunt, you bastard son with ten thousand arrows piercing his heart! Aha-" The aunt took advantage of the situation to put her right arm on the neck of the sea bamboo leaf, and said with a smile: "Look at the eyes of the son, I just think I am a newcomer, and I don't want to come prepared!" Aha-" Hai Zhuye stretched out his hand to push her away and asked, "Auntie just say, can you do it?" The aunt withdrew her hand, crossed her waist and tilted her head, and said: "There are all kinds of girls in Luoluolou, and the son can do whatever he wants, but there is no girl called Yao'er!" Hai Zhuye thought darkly: "Lu Yao'er must have entered the Cui Lou and was given a glamorous name!" Hai Zhuye smiled again: "Listen to my brother, Yao'er came not long ago, he was originally from a poor area, and his father seems to be a butcher, isn't it easy to find?" When the aunt heard this, she realized, "Oh! Which medicine should my aunt be, the butcher's daughter, it turned out to be a red grapefruit! As she spoke, she had already led the sea bamboo leaves to sit at a small flower table in the hall. Gotta know! Wait a minute, boy! After the aunt finished speaking, she turned to the two little maids and ordered, "Jinbao, go to the second floor to call the red grapefruit girl to pick up the guests; Xinglong, look at the wine and food! ”

Sea bamboo leaves sit quietly and look around. What is the scene in the Luo Luo Building? It is the peach blossom fan embroidered with peach blossoms, the palace of eternal life wishes longevity, the peony pavilion blooms peony, and the peacock platform opens the peacock screen. The lights and candles complement each other, and the sheng fence is intricate and chirping. The girl has a hosta bead shoes, waving Luo Qi fluttering, and the shadow is fragrant; The servants clear their throats with their fingers, pluck the orchestra, and sing and dance lightly. The hall is full of bright and dazzling colors, and the sky is full of flowers. On the top of the floor, it is named "Phoenix House", "Qilin Room", "Golden Toad Palace", "Langgui Palace", "Xiangyuxuan" and "Zilan Pavilion...... There are endless pleasure seekers coming in, cups (jiǎ) to convey affection, cups (léi) business, day and night are not without a feast.

After not sitting for a long time, Hai Zhuye saw the little guy called Jinbao coming down from the staircase, and shouted: "The red pomelo girl has arrived!" He was followed by a woman and sat down at the flower table where Haizhuye was. Hai Zhuye looked at it, the woman's eyebrows and eyes were exquisite, her figure was slender, she was holding a smiling bun, wearing a red and blue variegated Hunan skirt, tasseled embroidered shoes, her face was sad, her tears were stained, she gently pulled up her sandalwood sleeves, and bowed her head and greeted: "Red grapefruit is the cup for the son!" With a smile, she poured a glass of wine and served it to the sea bamboo leaves. Hai Zhuye took it with both hands, only turned the wine cup in his hand to play, and did not drink it, sighing in his heart: "I have never had a thin life, and good things are not strong!" Such a beautiful woman, when she entered the green building, the color of life was dyed gray from then on! "The red grapefruit girl is so good to accompany her, and the son's brother is drinking happily......" The aunt was noisy on the side. Hai Zhuye smiled: "Auntie, just say hello elsewhere!" The aunt looked at Haizhuye handsome, always had to take a few more glances and say a few more words, but this touched a gray nose and sneered: "Hey, hey! This is a beautiful thing that disturbs the son's brother and girl! Ahahaha - just go, go! She rapped again and walked away. Haizhuye put down the wine cup and asked, "Are you a red grapefruit?" The woman bowed her head and replied with only one word: "Yes." Haizhuye asked again: "What is your real name?" The woman replied again: "Lu Yao'er." Hai Zhuye knew that this woman was Lu Dunzi's daughter, but she pretended to ask: "Lu Yao'er!" Lu Dunzi butcher who lives in a poor area, is it related to you? When the woman heard this, she immediately raised her head, leaned forward slightly, trembled and trembled, and asked in a low voice, "Does the son know my father?" Haizhuye said: "Yao'er girl! If this son redeems you, are you willing? When Lu Yao'er heard this, the surprise was on the table, and she was about to thank her, but there were many people in the hall, so she only said: "The bee moth is dying!" If Childe can save my Yao'er from the fireworks pool, this kindness and virtue will be remembered for Yao'er's life! As he spoke, tears dripped down, and he only soaked his Hunan skirt. Hai Zhuye asked again: "I don't know how much silver money is needed?" Lu Yao'er replied: "The kidnapper sold me to Luo Luolou for ten taels of silver, but how much silver is needed to redeem my body has nothing to do with this price, it is all up to Mother Shen!" Hai Zhuye asked again: "Mother Shen is the aunt just now?" Lu Yao'er shook her head and replied, "No." Aunt Dan is only responsible for soliciting customers. The matter of buying and selling, this is the owner of the building, Shen's mother. Hai Zhuye said with a smile: "Miss Yao'er, don't worry, everything has me, before the rooster crows, I will let you reunite with your father and ancestors!" ”

Hai Zhuye said loudly: "Auntie! Aunt Dan heard that it was Haizhuye who called her, so she hurriedly twisted her waist and ran over, and asked with a smile: "Oops! What does Brother Childe command? Hai Zhuye said: "The red grapefruit girl has won the heart of my son, and my son wants to redeem her, can my aunt fulfill it?" When Aunt Dan heard this, she exhaled: "It's amazing! Good creation! In terms of appearance, red pomelo is not top-notch in my Luoluo Building, but he was born to have the heart of such a son, and he met for the first time, drank a cup of wine, and was going to be ransomed and married! After her shouting, the people in the hall were curious to look at this place, some smacked their lips, some slapped their tongues, and even the older girl quipped: "Otherwise, the slave family will also pour a cup for the son, and the son will also marry the slave family back!" As soon as these words were answered, everyone laughed. And when Lu Yao'er heard Aunt Dan say that she would marry or not, she raised her eyes and looked at the sea bamboo leaves carefully, and saw her temperament and appearance, and she believed it for a while, and actually showed some smiles. Hai Zhuye was originally an immortal monarch, he had never seen any demons and monsters, he had never encountered any sinister wind and waves, and he had never been afraid of half a point, but at this time, he was just laughed at and cramped by this group of earthly mortals. He didn't pay attention to anything else, including Lu Yao'er's shyness, and only said secretly: "It's important to save people!" Aunt Dan said again: "Brother Gongzi really has the heart to redeem the red grapefruit, auntie, I don't count if I say it, I have to ask my mother!" Auntie, I'll take my son-in-law to see my mother! Haizhuye replied: "There is labor!" Aunt Dan called out again: "Enter the treasure, lead the red pomelo girl back upstairs, and then there will be a guest to order her, just say that there is a guest, and keep it for this son!" Aunt Dan said, laughing, and pounced on the sea bamboo leaf with a silk.

Sea bamboo leaves with Aunt Dan to the most spacious and luxurious place on the top floor, see the gold carving jade carving, Zhu Hui cuiying, fragrant mist, door plaque engraved three words: beautiful woman sleeping. Aunt Dan changed her previous frivolous attitude, knocked softly, and did not dare to come out, and asked, "Is Mom here?" I'm Dan! After a while, a waiter opened the door and led Aunt Dan and Haizhuye into the hall.

"Little Dan, what's the matter?" Before Haizhuye's feet stepped into the threshold, he first heard an old man's voice, until he entered the hall with Aunt Dan, and saw an old woman (ǎo) lying on the fragrant wood long couch, with gray hair, combing a good phoenix in a heavenly bun, full of gold and silver beads and emerald hairpins, wrapped in silk robes, embroidered clothes and colorful patterns, 黼黻 (fǔ·fú) flying, holding a smoking gun in both hands, half-dreaming and half-awake swallowing clouds and spitting fog. Hai Zhuye's nose was itchy from the smoke in the hall, and he said angrily in his heart: "The one who harmed all the poor girls turned out to be such an old goblin!" Hearing this, Aunt Dan replied softly: "This sea boy wants to redeem the red grapefruit." Little Dent brings, listen to mom give a price! The old goblin Shen glanced at Haizhuye, got up slightly, held a cigarette gun in his left hand, and urged out two rolls of smoke and clouds along his nostrils, and made a "hum" sound contemptuously, his voice trembled, and he said in a yang tone: "Such a beautiful jade son, why did he fall in love with the woman who soaked in the fireworks pool?" Is it relying on the generosity of the ancestors, holding up the silver money in his pocket, and he has to take out a little loose? If you redeem her, will you make her a slave or a slave, or a concubine? Haizhuye replied: "Talk about the deed, for the confidant!" Shen Lao Fairy "hummed" again, and said contemptuously: "When a man deceives a woman, it is nothing more than the first beauty of her name, confidant, beauty, and best friend!" However, how does the three-inch flower intestines in the stomach look crooked, how can the old body not know? Evil man, the world is always a damaged blank! It's ridiculous that there are always naïve and ignorant, who think that they have a good life and are loved, who believe it is true, lose their precautions, and wait until they are pinched in their hands, or beaten and insulted, or discarded by boredom, or even broken their lives, they can only call the heavens unacceptable, the earth is not spiritual, helpless, and fend for themselves! Anyway, they are all born with a lowly life, they are all goods for the prince and grandson to buy laughing songs, sooner or later they can't escape, they all have the same fate, it is better to rely on the skin and flesh of youth to be available, and take advantage of the good morning in my Luoluo Building, the old body does not treat them lightly! Shen Lao Fairy's remarks, Hai Zhuye was terrified when he heard this, and he wanted to vomit viciously, but he was not shocked or refuted on his face, but just asked: "I don't know how much silver money is needed to redeem the red grapefruit?" Old Fairy Shen glanced at Haizhu Ye again, then took a long puff of the cigarette gun, and replied slowly: "Qianjin." Hai Zhuye was surprised and said: "Daughter! Old Fairy Shen closed his eyes in a daze, spit out a puff of cigarette at the same time, and asked with a suspicious smile: "What, can't you take it out?" If you can't take it, you dare to come here as a hero to save the beauty? Or don't you give your son and brother a pawn and change her? Hai Zhuye replied with a smile: "It's not that I can't take it, but this price is very different from the price she paid for entering the building!" Old Fairy Shen sneered: "The girl is not worth a few dollars outside, and she will receive ten taels of silver." But when it comes to going out of my Luoluo Building, there is a lot of money, this is called a rule! Why should Brother Gongzi be surprised by himself? Hai Zhuye sighed in his heart: "No wonder Brother Lu knows where his daughter is, and he can't save her home, they are all abducted by these evil people, this black-hearted and bloodthirsty vicious woman, these pests who are greedy as jackals and ruthless as tigers and wolves!" Sooner or later, I will walk for the heavens! Hai Zhuye cursed fiercely in his heart, and replied: "Let me go for a while, go and redeem the money, and then come to redeem her!" ”

But he heard Shen Lao Fairy (shěn) laugh and said: "It's the so-called 'cub selling Ye Tian is not distressed!'" 'Childe, you spend the silver in the house, and the bottom of the house is defeated, and you are willing to spend so much, but it is not that you can buy it if you have a lot of money! The old body still needs to check it, the eight characters of the red grapefruit, if it doesn't match, you can only be allowed to go out! When a maid behind the old goblin heard this, she hurried into the inner room, and then took out a volume and presented it to the old goblin. Old Fairy Shen flipped through it, sighed briefly, and said, "You can sell it!" Then, she looked at Haizhuye with trembling eyelids, and said with a smile: "Brother Gongzi, let's go and redeem the gold!" After speaking, she waved her hand, motioned to Haizhuye and Xiao Dan to go down, and then reclined down, and continued to close her eyebrows and eyes, surrounded by clouds and mountains.

Let's say that Lu Yao'er returned to his room, sat restlessly, and beat the drum in his heart "Dong Dong", and it was chaotic. She sent the little waiter to find out the news, and learned that the old fairy Shen offered a thousand gold, bluffing like a wood carving, and was stunned for a long time, and heard that Haizhuye had left, and was very disappointed. She said to herself with tears in her eyes: "The girls who have been ransomed in Luoluolou are all sky-high!" That boy must be reluctant to spend so much money to beg me, a woman with a dirty face and a dirty appearance! I have no hope of freedom, no hope of reuniting with my family, and I will still die in this unjust well that will not see the light of day for the rest of my life! The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and she couldn't stop crying.

Then Daohai Zhuye left Luoluo Tower, and was thinking about a way in the night: "I don't have a daughter, how can I be good?" It's better to go to Qiding Mountain to find Chang Qi to ask for something, he has a lot of gold and jade there. He then thought, "No! I promised Brother Lu to rescue Yao'er tonight. If you go to Qiding Mountain, the back and forth will inevitably delay the hour, how can this immortal monarch break the appointment without faith? It's better to 'borrow' some from the rich and noble families in the city, after all, their silver money is also unjust gains, why not take some of this immortal to save people? Haizhuye thought about it and pondered: "It's not appropriate!" I am a dignified immortal, how can I penetrate the wall and enter the room to be a thief? In the end, the name of this immortal monarch is important! After thinking about it, Hai Zhuye sighed: "Unless, take off a golden scale armor piece!" He weighed it again: "The golden scale armor is my protective thing, and if you take one off, you will hurt its roots!" If I encounter a strong enemy in the future, if there is any negligence, I am afraid that my life will be in danger! Therefore, it is still inappropriate! He was in a dilemma, paused, and then said to himself: "How can a gentleman break the covenant if he has promised?" Since I promised Brother Lu and Aunt Lu, I can't give them hope and disappoint them again! As the saying goes, 'All nations are born, and they will be given office!' 'As an immortal monarch, I, Hai Zhuye, should uphold the teacher's training - put life and death to protect the world, and give up my personal feelings to die for the common people! What is a mere gold scale? Haizhuye thought carefully and finally made up his mind.

That night, taking advantage of the bounded galaxy and the bright moon without spots, he found a secluded place, revealed the true body of Zhong Xianjun, and took off a golden scale at the cuff of his left wrist. The moment he picked it off, Haizhuye felt a pain in his heart. He sweated on his forehead, trembled in his limbs, and said to himself: "The golden scale armor has been on my body since the golden lotus was conceived into a human form, and it has long been integrated with my flesh and blood. Hai Zhuye endured the severe pain, forcibly calmed himself, and thought: "So as not to dream too much at night, I need to hurry!" He re-transformed into a gentleman and went to the pawn shop in the city.

It is said that there is such a pawn shop in Luoluo City, the business name "You have me", which does not close at night, and opens a business window for the children who are shy in their pockets to exchange money. When the sea bamboo leaves arrived, there was a queue of people in front of them, some holding antique jade bottles, some carrying jade pendants, some taking off the inlaid treasure belt, some hanging with portable swords, and some holding clothes, boots, crowns and hats...... They all looked busy, and their faces were depressed. Haizhuye sighed secretly: "This group of wasters who eat all day long, do not do business, recklessly take pleasure and losers, and are shy of wine, only know how to get drunk and lie in a heavy yarn tent, and eat delicacies!" If they could scatter the money in their hands among the poor people, they would not have the slums outside the city, and there would be no yíng! This group of human fetuses is not even as good as a demon spirit like Chang Qi! ”

When the order reached the sea bamboo leaves, he approached the window, spread his palm, and presented the golden scales in front of the man. The young man was crookedly wrapped in a red turban, his eyes were dripping and clever, he looked at the golden scales, picked it up, observed it repeatedly, and then said with a smile: "Childe, this treasure leaf, the young man has never seen it, you need to ask the shopkeeper to give you a price!" Hai Zhuye smiled: "There is Brother Lao!" The young man smiled again: "Childe, please wait a moment, take your treasure!" Come and go, little guy! ”

Oh, young man, please come out of the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was an old man, with a short beard and plain dress, but the mirror he carried on the bridge of his nose was priceless. He was full of energy and walked towards the window where the sea bamboo leaf was.

The shopkeeper looked at the golden scale, and his eyes lit up. He put the golden scales in his palm and said in surprise: "This gold is pure, rare in the world!" The brightness is abnormal, the weight is heavy, this kind of color, I am afraid that it is harvested in the wonderful water of Lingshan Mountain, and it is really created! The shopkeeper pushed his glasses upward, looked at the golden scales carefully, looked at the sea bamboo leaves, and sighed secretly: "The golden scales have no impurities, they must be supernatural things; And this son, looking at his eyes, is a fairy with a heavenly face and an elegant appearance, but he is afraid that he is not a worldly person! After looking at it for a long time, the shopkeeper smiled and asked, "How much does the son ask?" Haizhuye replied: "Daughter! "The shopkeeper does not bargain, but writes a contract. The young man weighed the full amount, the package was complete, and handed it over to the sea bamboo leaves. The sea bamboo leaves went away with gold. The shopkeeper was cautious, holding the gold scales in both hands to the inner room to treasure.

Hai Zhuye returned to Luoluo Building, paid the money with one hand and changed people with the other, and finally redeemed Lu Yao'er. Lu Yao'er changed into crow-green linen clothes and pants, the rough combing was simple, no extravagance, her face was full of joy and tears, her hands trembled, and she held the redemption contract tightly, when the west city gate was opened.

The moment Hai Zhuye took Lu Yao'er into the courtyard, the first rooster crow in the poor area started. Haizhuye sighed deeply: "Finally live up to the promise!" The three ancestors and grandchildren of the Lu family wept for a long time, without going into details. But it was said that Lu Dunzi set up a chair in the main hall, invited Haizhuye to take a seat, and then pulled Lu Yao'er, and kowtowed to thank him. Hearing this, Lu Dunzi burst into tears and said: "Brother Hai is really a golden mouth, and he will not deceive me!" Lu's family was reunited, and the little girl was able to get out of the evil field and eliminate the miasma, thanks to the Hai brothers' righteousness and wealth, and they donated money! This grace and virtue are engraved in the heart, and they will not be forgotten until death! For the rest of his life, Lu is willing to carry the saddle for the sea brothers, and carry the whip and stirrup to repay the kindness! Hai Zhuye hurriedly helped each other, and said with a smile: "Helping the poor and helping the needy is taught by Master Hai Zhuye, and the younger brother only wants to be worthy of it, and he doesn't dare to take credit!" Brother Lu and Miss Yao'er don't need to worry! Hai Zhuye helped them up, and said, "Miss Yao'er! The sea bamboo leaves have something to ask for! Lu Yao'er listened to the words, and then replied: "The great grace of the son, as deep as the sea, is heavier than the mountain, how dare Yao'er not repay it with death?" Childe has an order, but please command, Yao'er will not refuse, why use the word 'ask'? Haizhu Ye was worried about the people, thinking about the other innocent women like Lu Yao'er in Luoluo Tower, he thought to himself: "To help others, you can't reuse the method of saving Yao'er, otherwise, how many gold scales do I have in Haizhu Ye, I'm afraid it won't be enough!" We need to find a way to get rid of the disadvantages of Shen 疴 (kē) and remove this great trouble for women in the world! So, he said: "Haizhuye is sad and choked in his throat, so I specially invite the medicine girl to take care of it!" How many women in Luoluo Building are still in dire straits, and they still need the medicine girl to raise her hand and rescue her! Lu Yao'er said: "Meng Engong rescued, although the liver and brain are smeared, and he is not afraid to die, but Yao'er's strength is weak, and I don't know how to act, but please Engong points out a way, Yao'er should do his best!" Hai Zhuye said: "You don't need Yao'er to work hard, just tell me how Yao'er was abducted there in the first place!" Lu Yao'er paused and recounted truthfully.

On that day, Lu Dunzi's father and daughter, as usual, opened a stall in the market. There are endless buyers of meat and vegetables, and his father and daughter are so busy that their hands are immaculate and their feet are not touching the ground. At this time, an old man came and said, "Give me five catties and four taels of lean meat, chop it into grains; Six catties and seven taels of white manure flowers, also chopped into seeds; Then come eleven catties and two taels of skulls for soup. Lu Dunzi cut the meat and weighed the bones according to the buyer's requirements. Lu Yao'er packed it and handed it to the buyer. The buyer paid the whole ingot, and Lu Yao'er still looked for money. The buyer didn't look closely, took it and left. But Lu Yao'er felt that something was wrong, and thought again and again in his heart: "Fifty pounds of lean meat, five pounds and four taels, it is two hundred and seventy dollars; The white fat flower is forty wen a catty, six catties and seven taels, which is two hundred and sixty-eight wen; The barrel cover is forty-five wen a catty, eleven catties and two taels, which is five hundred and four wen. The sum of the three is a total of one thousand and forty-two wen, that is, one tael of silver and forty-two wen. The old man gave me a whole silver ingot of twenty-four taels, and I needed to find him twenty-two taels nine hundred and fifty-eight wen. Ah, it's not right! But I only gave him twenty-one two nine hundred and fifty-eight texts! Lu Yao'er found that she had miscalculated, and found a tael of silver to give to the buyer, thinking to herself: "How difficult the people's livelihood is, this ill-gotten wealth is absolutely unacceptable!" She hurried out of the butcher's stall and chased after the buyer to return the one or two pieces of silver. Lu Dunzi buried his head in cutting meat for other buyers, but he didn't find that Lu Yao'er was gone.

Lu Yao'er chased to the corner of the market, but the buyer was nowhere to be seen. She looked around and sighed, unexpectedly being covered by her mouth and nose from behind, and before she could struggle, her eyes were dark and unconscious. When she woke up, she was bound hand and foot, gagged and trapped in a closed carriage. There was a whip man sitting in the car, fiercely guarded. There are also five girls, the same as Lu Yao'er, of the same age, all dressed in coarse linen, with their hands and feet tied, unable to move, and their eyes full of fear and sadness. Lu Yao'er's head was frightened, and she could sense that the car was in motion, the first ride was flat, the next ride was bumpy, and after driving for a while, the carriage stopped.

The girls were put on black masks and carried out of the car in line. Lu Yao'er cried in panic, not knowing where she would be carried to, and not knowing what kind of sword mountain and sword sea would be waiting for her. It wasn't until she was unveiled that she heard a man with a cane say, "It's all Jiao'e, don't suffocate to death!" It's a waste of effort to suffocate to death! After being removed from her mouth and letting go of her hands and feet, she only felt weak and numb, and collapsed on the grass at once. She looked left and right, trying to escape, but she didn't have the strength to escape at all. Lu Yao'er settled down and counted, there were thirty-six girls with the same fate in this big house where she was locked up. The girls all looked frightened, whimpering, weeping, holding their heads and burying them in their arms, looking for a glimmer of security.

Suddenly, a girl screamed wildly, staggered at the hem of the whip-bearer's shirt, and cried, "Let me out!" Let me go home! The whip-bearer was so impatient that he glared at the bull's eye, and the whip was a good blow, until the girl curled up and wilted. The whip bearer lifted his big foot in rivet boots and kicked at the girl, and said viciously: "If you dare to cry loudly and make nonsense, you will be killed directly!" With that, the whip bearer departed. The girls were frightened again, and their fear increased, and they could only sob, not daring to make a sound, and shrank in all corners, trembling. Lu Yao'er didn't dare to say anything, squatting on the grass shop in the corner of the wall and trembling, looking at the other girls, some clasped their palms and prayed silently, some wrapped their arms to comfort themselves, some (zuō) fingers quietly calculated, and some grabbed their hair and whispered "mother-in-law...... In short, all of them are pitiful! Lu Yao'er looked up, but found a strange thing.

Among the group of girls, there was a girl who was a little older than Lu Yao'er, wearing a dark brown Ge dress, tying a hairband, and wiping her forehead, and she was surprisingly calm. She doesn't cry, she doesn't make noise, she doesn't shout, she doesn't panic, she observes the movement in all four corners. Lu Yao'er felt strange and thought to herself: "Is she looking for an escape exit?" So, Lu Yao'er also looked around. There is a high window in the big house, which is very small and difficult for people to pass. The room was dark, with only a few rays of light in the high windows. The door was an iron door, locked tightly, leaving only a small square opening the size of a palm for the guards outside the door to peep in. Thirty-six straw beds were laid in the house, and they smelled of disgusting mustiness. The girl in brown looked at the window, thought for a while, paced to the iron door, listened attentively, listened to the silence outside, and said softly: "It smells of wild lilacs." Then she chose an empty straw bunk and sat down quietly, covering her mouth and nose with her sleeve. Lu Yao'er saw that she didn't seem to have a way to escape, so she didn't care about her, hung her head, and wept sullenly. The other girls didn't bother to take care of her, and none of them had the leisure to pay attention to the wild lilacs she said, and everyone was just scared.

Hearing this, Haizhuye interjected: "Poor, timid, weak girl! Finally, there is a bold and calm one! What happened? Lu Yao'er continued.

The sun is fading. The whip man re-entered, his face was obscene, and he fell in love with a girl in pink at the root of the wall at the door, and said heresy: "This pink water spirit!" "Let's talk and drag her out. The girl in pink struggled incessantly, crying and begging for mercy. Lu Yao'er guessed that the girl would be poisoned after being dragged out, and she became more and more frightened, cold sweat broke out on her body, she buried her head in the crook of her arm, and prayed silently: "You can't see me, he can't see me!" "This is what it means to cover your ears and steal the bell! Just when everyone was in danger, they heard a girl say, "Let her go, let me go!" Lu Yao'er looked up in surprise when she heard the sound and found that the speaker was the calm, peugeot-brown girl from Fang Cai. The whip bearer looked at the girl in brown with a wicked smile: "This one in brown clothes is more attractive than the one in pink clothes!" If you are a hero, then start with you! With that, the whip-bearer let go of the pink-clad girl and reached out to pull the brown-clad girl. The girl in brown said, "Don't work your hands, I'll go by myself!" The whip-bearer had never met such a bold man before, and was frightened for a moment, and when he saw her strange nature and sharp eyes, he did not dare to do anything, but led her out.

Hai Zhuye asked anxiously, "What happened to her?" Lu Yao'er shook her head and replied: "I haven't heard of her follow-up, and I haven't seen her in Luoluo Tower!" But that sister is really dressed in brown and jade! Hai Zhuye sighed: "Could it be that she has already ......" Lu Yao'er also sighed, and then talked about it.

After the girl in brown was taken out, the room was silent for a while. I couldn't hear the good luck outside, and the people in the house were broken. Then, I don't know who sobbed, causing a lot of sighs and frenzy. Heart-rending crying, Amitabha Buddha praying, calling father and mother...... Stir into a pot of laba porridge. There was a timid girl, crying and crying, and she was so frightened that she spat out a puddle of bile and died on the spot! The caretaker dragged her body out and said, "Burial! Then the man with the cane came in and said angrily: "If you cry again, you will be buried alive if you cry badly!" The girls were silent, unable to cry, and unable to move. The whip-bearer came in again and dragged a girl dressed in white, but the girl refused to go out, so the whip-bearer threw the whip at her and beat her. The girl in white was aroused to the stubbornness in her bones, and roared angrily: "Horizontal and vertical death, fight with you!" The whip man was furious, glared at the bull's eye and said viciously: "I told you to fight!" He swung the cowhide whip at the girl in white. After an unknown number of blows, the girl gradually lost her resistance and lay on the ground convulsing. The whip man was sweating profusely, summoned a guard outside the door, and carried the girl in white out. When the rest of the girls saw this, the little bravery that was left was like snow being splashed with boiling water, and disappeared in an instant. The whip bearer stared at a beautiful goose girl in yellow again, and pulled her hard. The girl didn't dare to resist, sobbing and being dragged out.

In the big house, the rest of the girls, including Lu Yao'er, are so pitiful and ridiculous at this time, helpless and helpless! In order not to be selected for their beauty, they wiped the rouge they loved on weekdays with their sleeves; The musty smell of the grass is also used to cover up the original smoked floral fragrance on the body. There are those who rub the wall and paint their faces, those who deliberately tear their hair up, and those who pretend to be stupid and spit...... In short, they tried their best to make themselves look dirtier and uglier, and prayed in their hearts: "Don't be yourself next!" "In the face of the so-called life and death, human nature is fully displayed; The selfishness of human nature is clearly revealed! Lu Yao'er also begged in her heart: "Don't be yourself next!" It doesn't matter who she is, as long as she survives! This kind of thinking is shameful, but the situation is pressing, and everyone is taking it by himself, who can carry it together? At the moment of survival, who can take care of good and evil, righteousness or selfishness, fairness or selfishness? Isn't it normal for mortals to die and live happily?

Speaking of this, Lu Yao'er burst into tears and was entangled. Hai Zhuye only sighed and felt pity for those innocent girls, without the slightest blame or contempt! Lu's mother hugged Yao'er in her arms and wiped her tears. Lu Dunzi squatted next to the door and said nothing. Lu Yao'er continued: "Finally, I can't avoid the disaster, I can't run away from what should come, and it's still Yao'er's turn!" ”

As he spoke, Lu Yao'er was dragged out of the big house by the whip and dragged to another room, only to see three old women coming up. The No. 1 woman held a pen and paper in her hand and asked, "Name, eight-character geometry?" Lu Yao'er timidly asked, "What are you asking for?" But I saw the No. 2 old woman step forward (hāo) and pick up Lu Yao'er's hair, spitting saliva, and scolded impatiently: "If you ask you, you will say, there must be no half-word or half-minute deviation, otherwise, if you find out, you will be killed!" Lu Yao'er was so frightened that she cried and replied in a dumb voice: "Lu Yao'er, when Ding Mao is in the year of the month and the day of the month." Lu Yao'er said, and the No. 1 old woman remembered. After memorizing it completely, she double-checked it to make sure that it was correct, and then she put away the note. Then, the three old women began to tear Lu Yao'er's clothes together.

Exactly: clear the pot of white bowl daffodils, and the devil's claws move roots and plant sediment.

After all, what happened to Lu Yao'er? Let's see the next time.
