Caravan plan
"I have a caravan here, they are going to Chang'an City, but they were injured once by bandits on the way here. Bodyguards are now being recruited. Uncle Liao frowned and said, "I know their leaders, they don't need high martial arts, they just want to find someone to support the scene......
After listening to Uncle Liao's words, Chen Changye decisively shook his head and refused: "I can't, Uncle Liao, you know, I can't rest assured that my mother, if I have three long and two short, what will my mother do......?"
Uncle Liao pressed his hand to show that he understood, and he said solemnly: "You calm down, of course I know, but their bounty is very rich, ten taels of silver, which is 10,000 copper coins!"
"Ten taels!" Chen Changye was very surprised, he didn't expect that there were so many, if he got this ten thousand copper coins, he would no longer have to worry about his mother's medicinal materials for three months!
Uncle Liao looked at Chen Changye's hesitant appearance, and said, "I understand what you're worried about, it's okay." When you go back, you can think about it, and the caravan will go to the road tomorrow, so you don't have to hurry. ”
Chen Changye nodded blankly, and then left. I kept thinking about the 100,000 copper coins in my heart, and I weighed the pros and cons in my heart, but I still couldn't let it go, on one side was my mother, and on the other side was 100,000 copper coins.
After leaving the market and returning to the residential area, looking for the streets and paths, the noon under the autumn equinox was a little bleak. Chen Changye walked on the road alone, thinking about the honorarium in his heart, thinking that he should go home and ask his mother.
I couldn't help but speed up my pace, and when I returned to the courtyard, I pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, and the bamboo forest in the yard that had not been taken care of for a long time was overgrown with weeds. Chen Changye walked through the small courtyard, and before he entered the house, he happily pulled his throat outside the house and said, "Mother, I'm back!"
Pushing open the wooden house, there was a faint smell of medicinal herbs inside.
Chen Changye pushed open the window of the house to ventilate, he heard the coughing sound in the inner room, so he walked in and saw his mother lying on the bed emaciated, her temples were already white, and her eyes were looking at the beams of the house blankly. After a long time, I noticed that Chen Changye, who was standing aside, moved his pale lips, and squeezed out a sentence, "Wu'er is back?"
Seeing this, Chen Changye hurriedly wiped away the tears that had flowed on his face at some point, pretended to laugh heartlessly, walked over happily and leaned against the bed, and said excitedly: "Mother, you really gave birth to a good son, I earned more than 1,000 copper coins today!"
Hearing Chen Changye's happy voice, like a child showing off a toy, the mother squeezed out a weak smile and said, "My son is out, out of breath......" said and muttered to himself, unable to hear what he was saying at all.
Chen Changye hurriedly stood up, and he said to his mother: "I have to go and boil medicine for you, mother, you have a good rest!" When he walked to the door, he looked back at the inner room with red eyes, his mother's illness was getting worse and worse, and even Lang Zhong said that he couldn't cure it, so he could only take a breath with medicinal materials, she treated people with sincerity in her life, and never did anything wrong, why let her suffer this crime!
Hurriedly carrying a few strings of copper coins, Chen Changye bought some medicinal herbs and came back to boil. was fanning the stove in the yard, and suddenly saw a young man in fancy clothes standing outside the fence, take a closer look, it could be Lin Jingnian, what is he doing here?
Chen Changye felt surprised, just as the medicine was boiled, he hurriedly poured the medicine residue and ran out, then Lin Jingnian was not surprised to see him, he nodded at Chen Changye, Chen Changye asked: "Lin ...... Lin Jingnian, do you have anything to do here, do you want me to help?"
The autumn breeze outside the fence is blowing, but the sun shines on the body but it is warm, reflecting a golden bamboo forest. Lin Jingnian waved his hand and said idly: "I'll come over and take a look, and I'll send you a message by the way." ”
"What's the news?" asked Chen Changye.
Lin Jingnian glanced at the room lightly, and said, "There is a miracle doctor in Chang'an City who can cure the disease of losing consciousness." If you need it, I'll help you find someone. "The disease of absence of consciousness is the disease that Chen Changye's mother is trapped in.
Hearing this, Chen Changye's body was shocked, he didn't expect his mother to be saved! But he quickly calmed down, why did the other party help him for no reason? No grievances, a day ago, the two had never met, if it wasn't for the fact that the other party had something to ask for him, he still didn't believe it!
Lin Jingnian nodded, he raised his arrogant chin, his eyes were as cold as thousand-year-old ice, and when he saw the other party's expression, he said directly: "The price is, if you do a few things for me, I will invite a divine doctor from Chang'an City for you." ”
This, Chen Changye was stunned, he didn't know what he had to make the other party look at, he asked: "How can I believe that I can't fight with you, why are you looking for me, with your identity or financial resources, what master can't be invited?"
Lin Jingnian didn't answer, he looked at the bamboo forest that was blown by the wind, and said to himself: "Look at that bamboo forest, what does it have to do with the breeze? If it is not solid, it will be uprooted at any time!"
Chen Changye shook his head and said, "I really don't understand, I'm a fool and don't understand your hidden meaning." So, please forgive me for being rude. ”
"To put it simply, I need someone who has nothing to do with me and will not be in the city for the next few days!" Lin Jingnian suddenly confessed, he said lightly: "I'm playing chess, and I need the help of your chess piece!"
As soon as he remembered what Uncle Liao said to himself, Chen Changye understood, and he asked: "Then you know that the caravan will recruit people, so you asked Uncle Liao to tell me, and Uncle Liao will come here to find me in person after seeing me hesitating?"
"Not bad. Lin Jingnian said, "As you guessed." If you go with him and arrive in Chang'an City, you will naturally bring a miracle doctor on the way back, so don't you feel at ease?"
"How can you be sure that I will be able to bring a miracle doctor to the caravan? Chen Changye was talking, suddenly remembered something, was taken aback, raised his hand and pointed at Lin Jingnian, "No, could it be that the caravan was purchased by you to cover people's eyes?"
"The child can be taught. Lin Jingnian said with a flat face, as if he didn't spend a lot of money to buy that huge caravan, as if he spent a few pennies to buy a meat bun and beat a dog, it was really outrageously rich.
For a while, Chen Changye was speechless, everything Lin Jingnian had already arranged, and his mother's affairs naturally could not be delayed, he just calculated the time, and he had to go out of the city by himself. But why did he do that?
Lin Jingnian seemed to see through Chen Changye, he shook his head and looked disappointed, and left a sentence before leaving: "Don't guess what you shouldn't guess, you just need to take the road I arranged, be honest and loyal, and save your life......"
After he left, Chen Changye leaned against the fence, looking at the bamboo leaves that were blown by the wind, as if he wanted to uproot them, he seemed to have understood something, he had no choice, if he refused, he had the means to 'uproot' himself......!
