Chapter 412: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain
"Who are they?" the god was still sitting on the bed, looking like he was dying, and every time he said a word, he coughed violently or wheezed for a long time. Dalong replied, "It's a girl and four sons, and Yi Wei came in a carriage. ”
"Oh, where are they now?" the god's cough sounded heart-wrenching, and Dalong said, "It's still in Nanshi." The god thought for a moment and said, "You have them separated, and bring that girl to me!"
"Yes!" to any command of the gods, Dalong carried out without any reason. Only this time, among the four people, the god only saw the girl, which made him a little puzzled, but he still did it.
A few people asked with dry mouths, found a tea stall and sat down, asked for four bowls of hot tea, and drank it all. Sima Lu's eyebrows were worried, "What can I do about this, we asked so many people, but none of them knew where the god was!"
"In my opinion, it's not that they don't know, but they don't dare to say it!" Yun Yuan said, "It's not a way to ask like this, it's better to go back to the carriage first, and then think of a way after seeing Yi Wei." If you startle the snake, things will not be easy!"
Before leaving the palace, Sima Lu thought about this matter very simply. I didn't expect to show up and suffer a dark loss, seeing that things couldn't be done, if she wanted to return in vain, how would she live on her face?
"No, I don't believe it, the god is also a human being, he always has to eat, drink, and Lazar, and someone must know where he is, so I can't believe it and can't ask! Green Fire, take out what I have prepared!" Sima Lu gave an order, and Green Fire immediately took out a heavy bag.
As soon as Yun Yuan saw the bag, he knew what Sima Lu had in mind, and hurriedly pressed Lu Huo's hand and said, "Don't leak money, let's put these away!" Although he and Sima Lu have not known each other for a long time, he also knows her style as the only daughter of the richest man in Yixi City, and likes to take out those gold ingots to "smash" people at every turn.
Although this trick can play a big role, it is also too ostentatious and easy to attract unnecessary slowness. At this moment, a little beggar suddenly ran over not far away.
The child looked no more than seven or eight years old, and his little face was dirty and full of dirt. In addition to patches and patches, the clothes on his body are even more thin and can't cover his body at all. At this moment, it was freezing cold, and the exposed wrists and ankles were all red from the cold, and there were frostbite.
"Boy, girl, do well, enjoy the food!" As soon as the little beggar spoke, his voice was timid, which immediately made Sima Lu's love overflow, and pulled him up and let him sit beside him.
Despite the young age, Green Fire was still full of jealousy, and he hated to drive him away immediately. Sima Lu pointed his hand to the opposite side and said to Green Fire, "You go buy ten steamed buns, by the way, it's better to buy another bowl of hot soup." ”
Her orders, Green Fire did not dare to disobey. Sima Lu took the little beggar's hand and asked, "How old are you, what is your name, and who else is in the family?" The little beggar looked at her timidly and said in a low voice, "I am seven years old this year, my name is Xiao Wu, and I am the only one in the family." As he spoke, he even shed a few tears, which made Sima Lu sigh for a while.
"I didn't expect that there were such poor children in the capital of this quiet country! Look at them, they are not clothed and hungry. Little Wu, don't be afraid, when you're full, my sister will take you to buy new clothes!"
Frustrated along the way, Sima Lu finally found a place where he could show his talents. The steamed buns and hot soup bought by Green Fire were eaten clean by Xiao Wu after a while. He lowered his head and said "thank you", Sima Lu touched his head with satisfaction, looked left and right a few times, and found that there was a ready-to-wear shop not far away, so he stood up and said to a few other people, "You stay here and wait for me, I'll take Xiao Wu to buy clothes." ”
"I'll go with you!" Green Fire was like a fart, and wherever Sima Lu went, he would follow. Helplessly, Xiao Wu seemed to be very afraid of him, and when he heard that Green Fire was also going, he took Sima Lu's hand tightly, and hid behind her.
Sima Lu couldn't help laughing, "Forget it, don't go this time." Stay here and discuss what to do, anyway, the shop is not far away, I'll go back as soon as I go. Little Five, let's go!"
Seeing Sima Lu and Xiao Wu enter the ready-to-wear shop, Lu Huo sighed and sat down again, "It's just a little beggar, how can you provoke Lu'er to be so soft-hearted?" Rong Yue said, "The girl's family is delicate, and they are all like this." Not to mention this, I think, just now we are looking for the whereabouts of the god on the street. He is a man of deaf ears and eyes, and I am afraid he already knows. ”
"Isn't that a grass startling snake?" Yun Yuan suddenly became nervous, and Rong Yue said, "At this time, you can only scare the grass and the snake." If the master is in his hands, he will definitely deal with it, come to us for trouble, and prevent us from continuing to search. If the person is not in his hands, he will definitely wonder what we are looking for people so much, and we will come to find out. ”
After thinking about it, everyone felt that what he said was reasonable, and while drinking tea, they discussed how to deal with it. Suddenly, Green Fire asked, "How long has Lu'er been there?" Yun Yuan frowned, "It seems like it's been more than half an hour!" Rong Yue said, "Is it taking so long to choose a little beggar's clothes to protect from the cold?"
"Oh no, something happened!" Green Fire jumped to his feet, thinking about the ready-to-wear shop. There wasn't a single guest in there except for the boss and a guy looking at him dumbfounded. Green Huo hurriedly asked, "What about the girl and the little beggar who just came in?"
"He, they've gone through the back door, gone!" the boss gestured behind him, and there was indeed a door there. Green Fire ran over, pushed open the door and looked out, where it was another alley. He grabbed the boss by the collar, "When did they leave, in which direction, and why did you let them leave through this door?"
The boss was frightened and stammered, "They went in, came in, went around, and bought a cotton coat." The little beggar said that he wanted to eat sugar gourds, and the girl promised to buy them for him, and the little beggar took the girl and went away through the back door. Me, the back door of our shop is for customers to come and go, so, so ......"
At this time, several other people followed. Green Fire told the ins and outs of the matter, Yun Yuan said, "Oh no, we fell for that little beggar's trick!" Boss, I don't know if you have ever seen that little beggar, he often begs nearby?" The boss shook his head, "I haven't seen it, I know a few beggars nearby, but there is no him!"
