Volume 1 Troubled Boys Chapter 35 Thoughts in the Sun
The morning sun, soft and warm.
Luobei slept very well this night, probably because he had experienced too many things in this day, and his mind and body had become equally tired, so after falling asleep last night, he didn't even have a dream, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the sunlight shining in from the window in the early morning.
It's so dazzling at the moment.
Luo Bei hadn't fully opened his eyes, but he found that his face was actually a little wet, as if it was covered with paste and wrinkled together.
He reached out and touched his face, and found that the liquid came from nowhere, slightly viscous.
When he tried to open his eyes despite the dazzling sunlight, he found a snow-white face and two dark eyes looking at him motionlessly.
He subconsciously waved his arm to block the "thing" in front of him, and then suddenly realized that this "thing" was very familiar to him.
took a long breath, and was about to grab Da Bai's neck angrily, but this guy was really cunning, jumped back on the spot, and easily jumped to the side of the bed, so that Luo Bei could no longer reach it.
"Okay, you're a big white, you dare to lick your saliva on my face......"
This "yet" is subconscious, almost touching one of his strings.
"See if I catch you and ......don't pluck all the hair on your body," he said, pretending to be imposing, and was about to roll over from the bed, who knows, his stomach began to "gurgle" non-stop.
Da Bai looked at Luo Bei, raised one paw and shook it, as if he was saying nonchalantly, "It's hard for you to touch a single hair on my body!"
I don't know how long I slept, but when I woke up, my stomach was empty.
Luo Bei didn't fight with Dabai anymore, he got up and opened the front and back windows to let in bursts of fresh air.
There was a new rain last night, and the morning was like a wash.
Suddenly, there was a "chirp" sound, which sounded so lively.
Luo Bei looked out of the window behind the house, and it turned out that outside the fence behind the house was a deep wood, the trees were of different heights, but they were extremely dense, the branches were connected, and the dense leaves were also intertwined, making the trees look impermeable to the wind, and even the sunlight seemed to be unable to fully shine in.
When Luobei listened to the servant's introduction yesterday, he knew that there was a deep forest behind the courtyard wall, and they called it "Flying Bird Forest", which was not only densely wooded, but also had many nests built by various birds on the branches, hence the name.
At this time, the morning sun is just right.
The air after the rain is also exceptionally fresh, and when you open the window, you can see bursts of birdsong, which can't help but make people feel relaxed and happy.
Luo Bei smiled faintly, wishing that he could have another plate of delicious dim sum to eat at this time.
There are indeed many coincidences in this world, especially those stories that have been handed down.
If it weren't for a coincidence, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl would not have met, and there would not have been the poignancy of the Milky Way and the moving meeting of the Magpie Bridge.
It was really hard for Luo Bei to think that just as the snack flashed in his mind, there was a knock on the door.
When she opened the door, there was a young girl dressed as a maid standing outside the door, and she couldn't help laughing when she saw Luo Bei standing still and not speaking after opening the door.
Luo Bei reacted and smiled embarrassedly.
The girl carried a tea tray with a plate of fruit and a plate of snacks in her hand.
"Fourth Uncle said, it's almost time for you to get up now, it's time to send some snacks!" The girl spoke a little fast, reminding Luobei of the chirping birds in the bird forest.
I don't know if she was provoked by Luo Bei's stunnedness, or if it was originally urgent, the girl still didn't react when she saw Luo Bei, so she simply pushed the tray into Luo Bei's arms.
Nu Nu said, "Why are you so stupid!"
Luo Bei had no choice but to take the things that were sent to his arms, and scratched his head a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I ...... A bit ...... confused."
Seeing that he was so honest, the girl smiled briskly, and was about to turn away, as if she remembered something, she turned around again, picked her eyes, and said, "Let's eat first, the fourth uncle is waiting to see you in the back garden......"
The girl walked away in a flutter, Luo Bei held the plate, and didn't know what to say, at this time, I heard a shout from my feet, and looked down to see that it was the guy who looked at him sincerely.
Luo Beida was overjoyed, knowing that this guy saw that he had food in his hand, so he had such an expression, so he laughed and put a piece of soft pastry into his mouth.
"Hey, hey, what's going on...... How do you beg me......" Luo Bei said as he barely chewed the food in his mouth.
Da Bai screamed in a low voice, no longer having the momentum just now, and then wagged his tail kindly, looking like he was wagging his tail and begging for mercy.
......
When Luo Bei walked out of the door, the door was not closed tightly, because Da Bai was still inside, in fact, he knew that even if it was locked, it would have no effect, after all, with that guy's ability, how could he be trapped by a lock?
When he walked out of the small courtyard, he raised his head again and looked at the residence of the Kang brothers and sisters next to him, the scene last night is still fresh in people's minds, I don't know if he was wrong, or if someone really suddenly appeared, but in the blink of an eye, the black shadow has disappeared, is there really a person in this world who is so agile?
If it is a ghost or something, Luo Bei does not believe it, whether it is his father's education since childhood or his master Qin Muchuan, they are all staunch atheists.
But even so, there are still many phenomena in the world that cannot be explained, at least with his temporary knowledge, he can't fully understand it, and he may really have such a fast body, and there has always been a sky outside the sky in the martial arts.
The door of the Kang siblings' residence was still tightly closed, and the window was not opened, probably because it was still early, the two siblings had not gotten up yet, or the incident of last night kept them awake late at night, so they may still be asleep at this time.
The sun shone on his face, Luo Bei didn't care about what happened last night, squinted his eyes, and felt the morning sun, which was not hot, but also very warm.
The sound of the wind is coming, the bamboo poles that are still very thin are shaking in the wind, and a few bamboo leaves fall and fall on the quiet path between the two rows of green bamboos, so that the future is like a beautiful picture at the feet.
Luo Bei couldn't imagine what kind of manpower and material resources it would take to take care of such a mansion, and how kind of care and patience it would take, but as far as the eye could see, every place here seemed to be so meticulous, neither flashy nor too extravagant.
This trail reminds Luobei of the path in the fields of Qixia Village.
In autumn, the rice in the fields has turned golden, and you walk on the middle path with the blue sky above you and the fertile and simple land under your feet.
The wind blew on his face, and he listened to the sound of frogs and cicadas in the near and far distances.
Under the morning light, I raised my face, and I couldn't imagine that everything seemed to be still in my ears, and before I knew it, I had been away from my hometown for a few years.
To be honest, he really misses his hometown, his father and mother, and those "crawling" partners, I don't know if they are okay now, if they go back, will they still remember themselves?
Of course, his parents will always remember him, especially his mother, who will definitely be thinking about this unfilial son all these years, and more tears should hurt his eyes.
He thought about it, and after Zhuo Xiaocicada's poison was cured, he took Sister Xiaocicada back to the small mountain village and told his father and mother that he was doing well when he was alone.
The warm sunshine, the simple youth, and the simple longing are because he is still at a simple and kind age.
When he walked to the "Gong in Baicao" stone, there was already a middle-aged servant waiting there, and Luo Bei knew that it was arranged by the fourth uncle to come and pick him up.
I have to say that Wanfu is indeed very big, Luobei doesn't know what the palace in the capital looks like, but this is already the largest and most magnificent place he can imagine.
And as a housekeeper in such a place, in addition to hard work, he also needs to have a mind beyond ordinary people to arrange everything very properly.
The fourth uncle is such a person, from the outside, he is not good-looking, and his slight hunchback even makes him look inferior to ordinary people, but his steady steps, sharp eyes, and attitude of not being surprised when encountering problems are very incomparable.
The middle-aged servant walked in front of Luobei, his attitude was very humble, he walked in front but did not open the distance, and sometimes he would turn around and make a "please" gesture.
The two of them passed in front of the front hall door, and then there was a wall that was not very high but enough to block the view, the wall had an arch, after entering the arch, they had to go up several steps, and they arrived at the corridor that Luobei had walked through, the corridor was wooden, with a pergola on it, carved beams and painted columns, quite a bit of charm.
Not far in front of the cloister, Luo Bei saw a person standing with his hands in his hands, facing the small pavilion in the middle of the lake, looking at it in a trance.
Luobei used to come here, but at that time I didn't pay much attention to it, and many lotus flowers in the lake that were still budding at that time have now bloomed.
The pink petals are like lotus platforms in paintings, blooming in the huge green leaves, charming but not glamorous, out of the mud but not stained.
Probably sensing that someone was coming, the fourth uncle withdrew his eyes, and saw Luo Bei at a glance, there were many wrinkles on his face, and he looked like an old man, but in fact, the fourth uncle was only in his forties.
Luo Bei guessed that being the housekeeper of the compound was not so simple after all, people up and down, many rooms, and even every flower and plant were indispensable to take a look, and the most important thing was to manage things without losing proportion, so it was not easy to do big and small things.
"You're coming"
Luo Bei tried to make himself look relaxed, but in fact he was still very apprehensive in his heart.
"I'm coming"
They all spoke very simply, because both Luo Bei and the fourth uncle had long been mentally prepared for what they were going to do today, but Luo Bei didn't know what he could do to help Wan Ruhai's injury.
The fourth uncle probably saw the nervousness in his heart, so he introduced him to the situation of this mansion.
"If you look at it from a high place, you will find that the entire back garden is actually arranged according to the innate Bagua map......"
Luobei looked at the small pavilions, corridors, and houses in the middle of the lake, and the lines were really like the angular lines of the gossip map.
Luo Bei said strangely: "Why do you want to build it according to the gossip map?"
The fourth uncle smiled faintly, patted the painting pillar next to him and said, "Because the old master worships Taoists, he is also half a Taoist......"
Hearing the fourth uncle say this, Luo Bei remembered Wan Ruhai's appearance when he was wearing a yellow or gray robe, and couldn't help but smile, thinking that he did look a bit like a Taoist priest.
The two chatted as they walked, and Luo Bei gradually relaxed, and he didn't even understand why he became so nervous, and even the fourth uncle didn't say where he was going or what he was going to do along the way.
The two seem to be deliberately maintaining a tacit understanding.
Although the back garden is not as big as the front, but the degree of delicacy is much higher, carved railings and paintings, pavilions and water pavilions, everything, but the room is not as big as the front yard, even the main house that sits north and faces south is only three or four rooms, the doors and windows are closed, I don't know if there is anyone inside?
The fourth uncle told Luo Bei that he followed Wanru Haitian to practice medicine in the south and north, the vast grassland in the north, the light light rain in the south, they had been to the poorest places, and they had also entered the splendid royal palace.
But the reason why healers are healers is because in their hearts, life never distinguishes between high and low.
Walking and walking, they went down the corridor, down the steps on the side of the main house, and entered a small gate, inside was a deep courtyard, surrounded by a fence made of bamboo, and then looked inside was a small house, this small room was not commensurate with the whole mansion, but it was also extraordinarily quiet, and the fourth uncle told Luobei that in addition to him and the master, only Luobei had been here.
Behind the house is a very high wall, and a short distance away, there is a very beautiful pavilion.
There was a person sitting in the pavilion, and Luo Bei knew at a glance that the unkempt beard was Wan Yutang, who was leaning lazily on the pillar with one leg, vaguely as if he was humming something.
The fourth uncle looked there and said helplessly: "Hey...... Yutang is still too depressed after all, I don't know what knots he can't untie in his heart, and he has been wasted too much over the years......"
In front of the door of the house, the fourth uncle stopped, and at this time the sun was already hanging high overhead, and it was close to noon.
The fourth uncle pushed open the door and walked in with Luo Bei, there was no light inside, the light was also very poor, there was nothing in the house, there was only a large wooden barrel in the empty room.
The barrel was filled with water, and there was hot air wafting from it, apparently, the water was still hot.
The fourth uncle settled down and said to Luobei: "Brother Luobei, this is where I want to bring you......
