Chapter 59: Just Luck
"What? You're ready to go back?! Lan Zhi stood in front of her, looked at Yu Yu with wide eyes, and sneered after being stunned for a moment, "Heh, I thought you still had how much ability you could deal with Dao Miaoren, but it turned out that your way of dealing with it was to throw it to Qingyunmen." ”
In the face of Lan Zhi's cynicism, Yu Wu was unmoved, and she said without changing her face while packing up her things: "I think, the next thing is no longer under my control, the appearance of Dao Miaoren and the news you provided are enough to prove that the demonic qi that appeared in the sky above Ningcheng before is indeed related to the Pit Viper Gate, and my task has been completed." ”
"I thought how noble the disciples of Qingyun Sect could be, it turned out that they were only acting to complete the task, what is the difference between them and the Pit Viper Sect?" Lan Zhi looked at her coldly with his hands on his chest, "I still blame me for seeing the wrong person." ”
"No matter what you say, I'm not going to go any further." Yu Yu stood up straight and looked at her, "Last night in Hualou, I could see clearly where my limit was, if someone hadn't given the Sanmu Spirit Seed in time, I wouldn't have been able to suppress that disaster at all, and Hualou would be bleeding like a river, I can't even solve this problem on my own, how can I go deeper into the Viper Gate?" ”
"Huh." Lan Zhi sneered, turned his head and walked outside, but because there were chains, Yu Yu was not worried that she would go away, and Dao Miaoren was also trapped by her with a formation, and now there was only one thing left.
She looked up at the crumbling alley by the river in the distance.
During lunch, Lan Zhi still had a calm face and didn't say a word, Yu Wu also finished the meal in silence, and after finishing the meal, she didn't say where she went, only said that she was going around, leaving Yuchen and Lan Zhi behind, and went out alone.
At this time, there were many people on the street, and Yu Yu deliberately bypassed the main street and shuttled through the alley to the dilapidated door.
Not far from the flower building, the operation is still brightly lit, today has been suddenly grown up trees occupy most of the half, green but full of vitality canopy stretched, the entire flower building is shrouded in its shade, in such a place where desire flows has a bit of protection.
This happened suddenly, and the people in the flower building were blocked by officers and soldiers in the building for investigation, and Hotaru Niang's husband naturally failed to escape.
Yu Yu stood in front of the door, raised her head and knocked on it when the wooden door creaked open.
Firefly Niang, who was carrying the medicine residue bucket, didn't expect someone in front of the door, and was stunned when she saw Yu Yu, and then a pair of sickly eyes shone brightly, "Benefactor." She cried out happily, her pale cheeks stained with two pale reds from excitement.
With some difficulty, she put the heavy medicine residue bucket by the door, and immediately invited Yu Wu into the house to sit.
Nothing had changed in the room, except for the old dressing table where she had given her the medicine bottle, which she had cut off in small pieces and crushed into pieces on the washed brown paper.
Seeing Yu Yu looking at the medicinal powder that was crushed out by her, Firefly Niang immediately explained in a panic: "Ah this, I, I feel very good after eating it, so I want to crush it to identify what kind of medicinal herb it is, but I am still a shallow learner" She said here and grabbed her sleeves in embarrassment, and asked cautiously: "Dare to ask the benefactor. What you gave me, but it's an elixir? ”
"Can you tell?" Yu Wan glanced at her curiously, Yingniang lowered her head, and said embarrassedly: "It's because the family is poor, and I can't always afford to ask Lang Zhong to look at my body, so I used to learn a little medical skills, and I can only understand a little bit about my own pulse and prescribe medicine."
Yu Wu was silent for a moment, looked at her and suddenly asked, "Why haven't you left here?" ”
The asked Yingniang was stunned for a moment, looked up at Yu Wu in confusion, she didn't understand why Yu Yu asked this, but she still answered her question obediently, "This kind of thing is not something I can think of, I don't rely on others, I'm afraid it's difficult to get out of Ningcheng, go outside, go far away, I don't dare to think about it." ”
"Do you want to get out, then? Want to get rid of him? Yu Wu then asked.
Hotaru Niang looked at her suspiciously, saw the serious look in Yu Yu's eyes, thought for a moment and nodded, but then said uneasily: "But if I leave, he will definitely arrest me back."
"Okay." Yu Wu immediately said, regardless of her words, took a step forward, and whispered a few words in the ear of Firefly Niang, Firefly Niang's face turned pale when she listened, and she looked at her in disbelief, her lips trembled slightly, "So. Can it really. But how can I live without others? ”
Yu Yu nodded, and at the end of her eyes, she saw a medicine frame on the side, and on top was a layer of dodder seeds, so she slowly spoke: "Cuscuta seeds are a kind of medicinal herbs that are attached to other plants and live. ”
Hearing her say this, Hotaru Niang's eyes flashed, and the corners of her mouth hooked up with a self-deprecating smile.
"But this herb is not kind." Yu Yu understood what she was thinking, because she had thought so, she could only live by her father, what was the difference between her and Cuscuta Zi, that was also when she spit on her sick seedling body, she said flatly: "But in fact, she is a very tenacious creature, as a life, she has ways and means to keep herself alive, and the smart Cuscuta will know that when the host causes harm to her or is not enough to support her, she will look for another way out, and this is true of all lives." ”
She bent down slightly, staring into Hotaru Niang's eyes.
"Even if you have to survive like a dodder, you don't have to deliberately lower your stature, because life is inherently great. We allow all things to have their own way of living, and we also allow life to be weak, fragile, and kind, and what the world cannot tolerate should be pure malice and gratuitous destruction. ”
"I" Firefly raised her head and eyes, her slightly shining eyes crashed into Yu Wu's clear eyes, and in her clean eyes, she saw her own reflection.
"Hotaru Niang! Hotaru Niang! ”
Yu Wu didn't wait for Firefly Niang's reply, but was interrupted by a cry from outside the house.
She straightened up and looked at the woman who had come running in crying from outside.
The woman looked very strong, and the apron in front of her was stained with oil, and she should have lived a good life. She came in and saw that there were other people in the house except Firefly Niang, she glanced at Yu Wu with a hint of embarrassment, and walked forward with a shy face and said with a smile: "There are guests." She said as she walked over to Hotaru Niang and sat down, grabbing Hotaru Niang with her unwiped hands, "Hotaru Niang, that dead drunkard is trapped in the flower building again, this time I don't know what caused something, provoked the officers and soldiers." ”
As she spoke, the woman quietly glanced at Yu Wu next to her, and blocked it with her broad back, as if this could block their words, she patted the back of Firefly's hand and said, "No matter what, he is also your husband, my brother. Didn't your childhood sweetheart come back and work as an errand in the government, you, you go and do a favor and let him let people out, you are also husband and wife."
If it was in the past, when she said this, Firefly Niang might not be able to bear it and agreed, but today it may be Yu Wu here, Firefly Niang felt that she would support herself for no reason, and suddenly had confidence, and silently withdrew her hand from the woman's hand.
"In the past, when my sister-in-law hollowed out my dowry, he didn't say that he was your brother, and when he used to beat me and refused to buy me medicine, I didn't see my sister-in-law come to persuade him that we are husband and wife, and now it's a little difficult, why do you still mention this matter?"
Seeing that the people who had been obedient suddenly became hot, the woman was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that her face couldn't get over, her face was red and white for a while, and her speech was stumbling a lot, "What. How can you say that. He is your husband, and you should save him. ”
"He's your brother, you should save him, I can't save him." Hotaru said lightly.
"How are you!" Seeing that the woman was about to jump to her feet, Yu Wu finally smiled lightly and opened her mouth.
"You're the one who bought meat from the north of the city." I just saw that the direction she came from was in front, and the greasy on her body was also the oil overflowing from raw meat, not to mention that there was a greasy smell on her body.
The woman's face turned pale, she looked at Yu Yu, frowned and looked her up and down vigilantly, "You are."
"Do you recognize this?" Yu Yu smiled and raised the money bag in her hand, which was the money bag left by Xie Guan that day. She took a closer look, and this money bag had the unique pattern of the Xie family, which was different from ordinary money bags.
As the city lord's family crest, there should be very few people in the entire Ning City who don't know it.
Seeing the change in the woman's face, guessing that she also saw it, Yu Yu continued to take advantage of the hot iron and said: "I have a lot of relationship with Gongzi Xie, if you don't want you to embarrass a patient's deeds and be known all over the city and be troubled by the Xie family, you can leave now." ”
The woman's face changed, she was embarrassed and angry, she gritted her teeth and looked at Yu Wu, glared at Firefly again, and walked out through gritted teeth.
Seeing her go out, Hotaru Niang inexplicably put down a stone in her heart, maybe in the past, she would be worried about whether she would kill her when he came back, but now it's different, perhaps, the other way is not impossible.
"You're doing a great job." Yu Yu smiled at her, "Then I think you must have made a choice." ”
Hotaru pursed her lips and looked at her and nodded.
"Then I have other things to do, so I won't bother you." Yu Wan said that she also went out, helped her dump the medicine residue placed by the door, turned around and waved her hand to the firefly who was watching her by the door, and walked out.
As soon as she walked into the alley, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
Lan Zhi looked at her with his hands on his chest and raised his eyebrows playfully.
"So you're here to go back, aren't you? What are you doing here? ”
"It's not about the task." Yu Wan said, avoiding her gaze.
"You're also going to care about things that aren't mission-related?" Hearing Lan Zhi's mocking tone, Yu Yu also knew what she wanted to do, so she didn't pay attention to it.
Seeing that Yu Wu didn't speak, Lan Zhi continued: "What? If you pity her, can't you pity others? ”
"She's just out of luck." Yu Wu said lightly.
Yes, Hotaru is just unlucky, and she's just lucky.
If she had fainted on the official road and met not Twilight Mountain, but bandits, robbers, or other people with bad intentions, she would not be where she is today.
If it weren't for her luck, she would be Hotaru Niang, and Hotaru Niang would be her.
