Chapter 10 Continuing the Frontier (II)
Luo Tianchu said: "Don't bother, I'm going to leave after saying a few words, by the way, you're so busy now, what should you do with business?" Hu Bai said: "There are no important patients, don't worry about it for a day, I have asked Miss Ling to help me close, and I won't do business today." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Luo Tianchu nodded and said, "Okay then." Brother Hu, do you know where the brothers are now?" Hu Bai said: "After being recruited, Lu Fei, Zhu Yushi, Du Kill, Cai Lianhua, and Li Xiao were all made military generals, Cui Xing was a civil official, and they were all on errands under Wu Jie, and their families were in Chengdu. Only Gu Yao, Yan Weifeng resigned from the official position, sold calligraphy and paintings for a living, and now Gu Yao's paintings, Yan Weifeng's words are deeply loved by Chengdu officials and nobles, and can be sold for hundreds of taels of silver. Pei Zifu, Xiao Zhonglou, Lu Ning, and Hu Boss are also doing business in Chengdu, and recently they have joined forces with the Zhu family to monopolize Chengdu's dart games and casinos, and the business is very big. ”
Luo Tianchuqi said: "Luoyang's Zhu family?" Hu Bai said: "Yes, it is Zhu Yushi's father-in-law." A year after Zhao'an, the army of our fort was fully integrated into the Wu family army of Wu Jie, Lu Fei and Zhu Yushi retired and resigned, and Du Kill, Cai Lianhua, Li Xiao felt that there was nothing to do after resigning, so they continued to stay in the barracks, and now they are stationed in Dasanguan and Xianren Pass, and their families have also taken over, and Cui Xing continues to be a staff member under Wu Jie. The subordinates also wanted to move to Chengdu to be with their brothers, but the business of the hospital had become popular, and they had to start all over again when they arrived in a new place, so they stayed in Hanzhong, fortunately, they were not far from Chengdu and could meet at any time. ”
Luo Tianchu breathed a sigh of relief, and said happily: "It's good that everyone is safe, by the way, why didn't you mention the military division and Lao Zhao? They are all right?" Hu Bai was silent for a while, and said gloomily: "After Gongsun Junshi learned the news of the defeat of the Tiger Prison, he expected what would happen next, and in order not to be a burden to everyone, he committed suicide by taking poison." Luo Tianchu cried out bitterly: "What! The military advisor he!" Hu Bai sighed: "The military advisor also knew his fate soon, only because he couldn't let go of my fort to send troops to the Central Plains to insist, after the defeat of the army, he was disheartened, not because he couldn't think about it for a while and looked for a short sight, but because he had already had the will to die." Luo Tianchu nodded, wiped his tears, resisted the urge to cry loudly, and said, "What about Lao Zhao?" Hu Bai said: "Brother Zhao is worry-free, but he was besieged by the Jin army during the retreat and broke a leg, but fortunately he was rescued by Lu Fei and now lives in Chengdu." Luo Tianchu said sadly: "With Lao Zhao's fiery temper, breaking his leg is more uncomfortable than asking for his life, you can imagine how painful it is for him to live." Hu Bai said: "At the beginning, it was true, he was drunk all day long, his will was depressed, maybe it was a blessing in disguise, and his sister-in-law Feng, who had not been out for many years, gave birth to a male baby for him, Lao Zhao was overjoyed, and there was hope for life." Luo Tianchu was pleased: "What Lao Zhao wants most is a child, and Brother Zhong used this to provoke him back then." Since so many people are in Chengdu, then I have to say goodbye. Hu Bai said: "Why should the castle master be in a hurry, it's not too late to stay overnight and leave." ”
At this time, Ling Zhi'er walked over with her baggage and said with a smile: "He is like an arrow, and he can't keep it." Hu Bai saw the burden in her hand and wondered, "What is Miss Ling doing when she packs her things?" Sun Xiaomei bumped him with her elbow and whispered, "Do you still need to ask?" Hu Bai immediately suddenly smiled and said: "I see, my subordinates congratulate the two of you in advance." Ling Zhi'er blushed and said, "I left with him, and the medical hall will be even busier in the future." Hu Bai smiled: "Don't worry, I'll invite someone, and on the day the two get married, you must invite Hu to have a wedding wine." Luo Tianchu smiled: "Definitely." ”
At that moment, Hu Bai and his wife sent them out of the hospital hall, and only after leaving the city gate did they reluctantly say goodbye. Luo Ling and the two walked side by side, and the death of Gongsun Mingyue made Luo Tianchu feel dull, but fortunately, Ling Zhi'er deliberately diverted the topic and asked him about his cultivation in the mountains. It was still a long way from Chengdu, Luo Tianchu slowly narrated, Ling Zhi'er listened to it with relish, and said after listening: "Since you have left the mountain, why do you still have a beard and wear a monk's robe, as if you are ten years old." ”
Luo Tianchu said: "I don't want others to recognize it, so I keep this appearance, but it doesn't seem to work well, as if anyone can recognize me, but let's keep it first." Ling Zhi'er said, "Do you know all about Sister Ling?" Luo Tianchu nodded silently. Ling Zhi'er said: "There is a sentence I want to ask you, but I am afraid that you will be angry, so I don't know whether to say it or not." Luo Tianchu said: "Even if you ask, I will be angry." Ling Zhi'er paused and said, "Are you willing to marry me because you feel guilty about Sister Xue'er?" But even so, I am very happy, and I am willing to take care of you instead of Sister Xue'er. Luo Tianchu looked at her in surprise, and said solemnly: "I do feel guilty about Xue'er, but I won't marry you because of this, I really like you to be with you, you are unique, not a substitute for anyone." Ling Zhi'er blushed and said "um", her heart was full of sweetness and joy.
Two days later, at 10 p.m., they entered the city of Chengdu before the gates were closed. Chengdu is twice as large and populous as Hanzhong, it is located in the rear of the battle line, with thriving bazaars and shops, more prosperous than Luoyang, Chang'an, no wonder so many people come to settle in Chengdu.
The appearance of the two is rough and beautiful, and it is very eye-catching when walking on the street, and many young men pay attention to the handsome and beautiful Ling Zhi'er, and they all wonder how such a beautiful girl can walk with a sloppy head. Ling Zhi'er didn't care about other people's eyes at all, and she couldn't tolerate anyone in her eyes except Luo Tianchu. The two of them stayed in the store, and the shopkeeper looked at the two curiously, and asked, "Do you want one room or two rooms?" Luo Tianchu said: "Two rooms." The shopkeeper smiled kindly: "Unfortunately, there is only one room left in the store, or the master and this female benefactor will sleep for one night?" Luo Tianchu will no longer be angry for this kind of verbal cheapness, so why not let him have a good time, and said lightly: "One is just one room, just let her sleep, I can sleep on the street." The shopkeeper smiled proudly: "Okay, I'm sorry master, I'll take the female guest to see the house." ”
Ling Zhi'er glanced at him, grabbed Luo Tianchu's arm and said, "Xianggong, one room is just right, we don't need to sleep separately." The shopkeeper stammered, "You... Are you husband and wife?" Ling Zhi'er smiled: "It's like a fake." The shopkeeper forced a smile and said, "It's really strange, come with me." Luo Tianchu took Ling Zhi'er's hand and said with a smile: "You rest first, I'll go out to do something." When Ling Zhi'er knew that he was going to find Zhu Yu, she said, "Come back early, Xianggong." (To be continued.) )
