Chapter 15: People in the rivers and lakes, it's better not to be soft-hearted
It's raining outside, and maybe Jiangnan is always drizzling.
A few rays of light shone through the screen window, illuminating the edge, and a little smoke wafted through the room, and a little aroma filled the smoke.
On a hardwood bed, the white-faced Xiaosheng listened to the sound of the rain, frowned, and woke up faintly.
It was a strange room, and for her, she didn't know where it was, and she didn't know why she was here.
She wanted to get up, but her hands and feet were so sore that she didn't have any strength, so she had to lie on the bed and look at what was around her with her eyes.
There is an incense burner at the head of the bed, and there seems to be some kind of herb burning in the incense burner, which smells very pleasant, fragrant and elegant, and makes people feel calm.
The room is very ordinary, not big, it should be a guest room of an inn.
The untied curtain hung beside her.
Soon, she noticed another person in the room.
It was Li Si who was sitting by the window.
Only then did she think that she seemed to have fainted, and then it seemed that Li Si had saved her.
···
At this time, Li Si was sitting at the low table by the window, looking at the rain curtain outside the window without saying a word.
He held his chin in one hand, and his posture looked very lazy.
The sunlight that came in from the window illuminated his body half-brightly, and his white shirt hung slightly loosely on the platform.
The black hair swayed gently with the breeze, half-covering his clean face, Li Si was quite handsome, but the first impression of people who had seen him was generally clean.
He was a very clean man, his eyes were clear, his skin was as white as jade, and his lips seemed to be slightly red as if he was always smiling. The figure is not tall, but it is not thin either, and it is just right with a white dress.
If there's anything special about him, it's a mole in the corner of his eye.
This makes his expression always unclear, with a little bit, and he can't tell whether it is a fairy or a demon.
It's like dripping a drop of black ink into a bowl of water.
In an instant, it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil.
This is the first time that the white-faced Xiaosheng has looked at Li Si so seriously.
How to say it, when this guy is quiet, he still looks a little good.
"Are you awake?" by the window, Li Si suddenly opened his mouth and said lightly.
The white-faced Xiaosheng immediately retracted his gaze in panic, and nodded stiffly as he lay on the bed.
"Hmm. ”
When he woke up, he drank the porridge at the bedside. ”
Only then did the white-faced Xiaosheng notice that there was still a bowl of porridge next to his bed.
It looks like it's been left for a while, and the overheated heat has been dissipated, and only a little residual heat remains.
She was about to sit up, but she found that she didn't have the strength to sit up, so she had to continue lying on the bed.
"How. Li Si glanced at her sideways: "Do you want me to feed you?"
"Who, who wants you to feed. The white-faced Xiaosheng's face turned red, and he said stiffly, "I just want to wait for it to cool down for a while." ”
"Whatever you want. Li Si shrugged his shoulders, looked at the white-faced Xiaosheng for a while, and then said.
"You haven't eaten for too long, and your body is weak, so you will faint. I've already used internal breath to help you recuperate, and if your limbs are still weak, you should be fine after a while. ”
As he spoke, Li Si raised his chin against the incense burner at the head of the bed.
"This is the fragrance of mincao, which has the effect of calming the nerves and warming the inside. I'll stay here for two days, I'll bring you some food at regular intervals, and when you're almost well, I'll leave. This time it's not for a little girl like you who has just entered the rivers and lakes to interfere. ”
What Li Si said was naturally the matter of the imperial court arresting him.
With the kung fu of the person in front of him, it is estimated that he is not as good as a second-rate player in the rivers and lakes, let alone arresting him, if he is really involved in disputes, it is difficult to say whether he can save his life.
So persuading her to leave can be regarded as doing a good deed for herself.
The white-faced Xiaosheng lying on the bed had a complicated expression, how could she not know what Li Si said.
It's just that she has no other way than to catch Li Si, and she has no other way to get 10,000 taels of gold before the deadline.
If there is a 1 in 10,000 possibility of catching Li Si, then if she has to make up the 10,000 taels of gold by herself, there is not even a 1 in 10,000 possibility.
She didn't have a choice, it was from the beginning.
Gritting his teeth and enduring the pain coming from his body, the white-faced Xiaosheng sat up from the bed, picked up the porridge bowl at the head of the bed, and drank the rice porridge in a big gulp.
After drinking, she wiped her mouth, sat with her head down for a while, and whispered.
"Otherwise, you will kill me now, or I will arrest you when I am well. ”
This time, Li Si's brows furrowed slightly, he looked at Xiao Sheng, and said solemnly and slowly.
"You have to understand that there will not be a second time for me to save you. ”
On the bed, the white-faced Xiaosheng was holding the porridge bowl that had been emptied, and his expression was gloomy.
"I know. I owe you a life, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will pay it back. ”
There was silence in the room for a while, and Li Si shook his head slightly.
"If you keep chasing me, I don't think there's a chance. ”
Neither of them was talking, and only the faint sound of rain remained in the room.
After a long time, Li Si helplessly relaxed his brows, sighed, and asked.
"Why the hell are you arresting me?"
The white-faced little student on the bed closed his mouth, obviously with no intention of answering.
"Then what's your name. Li Si asked again.
This time, Xiaosheng finally had a little reaction and replied softly.
"Bai Yao'er. ”
The surname is Bai.
Li Si faced out the window, thinking carefully for a long time, and couldn't think of any portals surnamed Bai on the rivers and lakes.
Maybe the half-cut immortal will know, but at this time, the half-cut immortal may have already left Jiangnan.
Ay.
Glancing at Bai Yao'er behind him bitterly, Li Si glanced at his mouth.
How did I get into such a trouble?
But he is not a ruthless person.
······
Bai Yao'er's health is very poor, and the bumps along the way have lost her heart and hurt the roots.
Before she gets better steadily, Li Si can't leave her alone.
So I had to plan to stay here for a few days for a while, take care of her for a while, and treat it as a good person to the end.
However, Li Si stopped, but it doesn't mean that others will also stop.
The rivers and lakes are still surging, and the people in the rivers and lakes naturally have to run.
······
Yangzhou, as an important place for business routes, is always bustling with people, and the market is bustling, crowded and busy.
There are sellers, there are noisy people, there are crying people, there are laughing and scolding people, this street is a picture of the world, and this city is a face of the world.
However, if there is noise, there must also be silence.
On top of a high-rise building in Yangzhou City, a room is dimly lit.
There were two people sitting in the room, two men.
One of them was mild-mannered, dressed in brocade robes, holding a scholar's folding fan, and smiling silently.
A cold and domineering man, dressed in black cloth, holding a seven-foot cold front, silent.
They looked at each other, as if they were all waiting for each other to speak first.
······
