Life Going Wild With Plug-ins

Chapter 18 Rooting

When I woke up the next day, Ye Tan had already returned from sword practice and had finished taking a shower.Since he practiced martial arts again, he has become more and more energetic, and he can hardly see his sick appearance.My heart is very happy.

Our itinerary is unknown, so I suggested to stay an extra day, and buy carriages and horses by the way.

Ye Tan waited for me to eat, and at the same time agreed.I looked at the shabby little broken sword on his waist, and felt very unpleasant.

"What the hell is this?"

"A few days ago, I bought it with the copper plate I got from helping Doctor Ren embroider." Ye Tan said calmly, "It's very cheap."

I thought about it for a while, and asked, "Ah Tan, are there any famous swords scattered around the rivers and lakes?"

Ye Tan replied: "Of course there are many."

"Anyway, we have nothing to do, why don't we find a famous sword for you next." I said happily, a lot of drama books about famous swords, beauties and heroic spirits rolled in my heart, and I was very yearning.

"No need? Your subordinates don't like swords very much." Ye Tan lost interest.

I doubted: "I can't see that you hate swords..."

"It's not that I hate it. This subordinate just doesn't understand much." Ye Tan shook his head and said, "If you want to kill people, concealed weapons and poison are not as effective as swords. This subordinate still can't figure out why the world respects swords... Maybe it's because it looks good."

He recalled something, and said: "This subordinate once mentioned this matter to Zeque, and for some reason Zeque became furious, saying that I insulted the way of the sword, and would challenge me every now and then. I am a shadow guard, and I often hide without a trace In order to find me, Ze Que cut down a lot of rockery and flower trees."

...Oh, is this the truth of "Ye Sha has been dancing around in Zhongliyuan for three years".

If Night Tan has the title of Jianghu, it must be called "Back the Pot Man".

Jian is the king of a hundred soldiers, he doesn't even have the concept of good and evil, so naturally he can't understand it.I didn't know how to explain it for a while, so I had to give up.

After packing, Ye Tan went to pack the luggage, but I insisted on going to the street to listen to books, so I thought of a compromise and found two short-term workers who didn't know martial arts to accompany me.It just so happens that these two people don't know me, which is much more convenient.

The two fellows were well paid, and they thought that there was something trivial to do, but they didn't expect that just sitting and drinking tea would be enough.They have worked hard all their lives, and they are not used to wasting their time like this, holding porcelain cups and looking at each other.

I sat facing the street, watching the busy traffic and the hurrying pedestrians, and felt that although everyone was busy, they all had a goal and a destination.I am the only one who is like a rootless weed, with no where to come from, and no where to go... Fluttering like a gull.

Xu Shiren is unavoidably a little hypocritical when he is ill.

Before I could sigh a few times, a small figure suddenly stumbled over and bumped into my arms, crying, "Sir, I have finally found you."

Now I can't resist my shoulders, I can't lift my hands, and I was bumped lightly by him, and I fell down.

There was a lot of noise around me, I was a little dizzy from the fall, and when I was helped up, I saw clearly that it was the innocent boy from the bank yesterday.

"Sir, I'm sorry for you. I missed your gold by one or two yesterday." He stuffed the bank note in his hand into my arms, and then began to cry loudly.

I was startled, and hurriedly handed over the scarf to stop him: "Why are you crying, you knocked me into the air, and made me bully you."

He cried for a while, then gasped and said: "Every time our boss cashes the banknotes, he must force us to pay less than two cents, so yesterday we underreported one tael, but you are indeed 11 taels, isn't it? Twelve taels. I thought about it all night, you are so sick, it must be life-saving money, even if the boss forces me to be greedy for money, I can't kill my life."

I weighed the stack of banknotes and asked, "Did you steal this from the bank?"

The young man choked up and said, "This is supposed to be Mr.'s money, I can't count it as stealing."

I laughed and said, "I'm afraid your boss doesn't think so."

After finishing speaking, the boy started howling again, and I hurriedly wiped away his tears, comforted him and sat down, and stuffed him with a snack.He ate and ate and then fell silent, tears still falling down, looking very pitiful.

"What's your name? Are you a local?" I changed the subject to attract his attention.

"My name is Luoshu, and I was originally from Moling. My uncle took me to Rongzhou to seek refuge with relatives a few years ago, but he fell ill in Daojincheng, and I didn't know where to find someone. Fortunately, I read After a few years of reading and knowing a few words, I stayed at Jincheng Bank to help with the calculations."

I asked, "Do you have any relatives in Moling?"

"No more." Luo Shu shook his head, feeling sad and about to cry.

"What kind of place is Moling?" I asked again.

"It's...well, a place with a lot of water." He stuffed a mouthful of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and his tone softened a little, "There are many water veins, weeping willows surround the banks, and there are lanterns every night. There are many beautiful painting boats on the river. The rain is also gentler than in the Central Plains."

When I heard his words, I felt yearning and asked, "If I send you back to Moling, can you do something for me?"

Luo Shu seemed to be choking: "You, what did you say?"

"You always need a job to make a living, right? You are upright and literate, so it's perfect." I said happily, "When you return to Moling, help me buy a big house, set up furniture and servants. I I want to go out for a while, can you help me take care of the house?"

Luo Shu was astonished.

I took out a small bag of ready-made gold bars and stuffed them into his hand: "These are gifts for meeting. Please leave an address with me, and I will send the needed gold and silver items regularly."

"Well, how does this make..." Luo Shu stammered, "We've only met twice, how could you entrust such a precious thing to a brat like me..."

"You will be the housekeeper of my house from now on." I wiped the tears on his face again, "I need you to worry a lot."

Luo Shu asked in a daze again: "I don't know what your name is... sir?"

"Jun Xuanheng."

Luo Shu said again: "Then, it's going to be called 'Junfu'..."

I thought about the name of the house so quickly, I really care about it.

"No." I squinted my eyes and thought for a while, then said softly, "Just call it 'Jiange'."

Luo Shu nodded, and asked cautiously: "My lord, then... am I... your retainer? Can I take your surname?" He just finished speaking, and explained in a panic, "I , I have no other relatives, if possible..."

"That would be great. Coincidentally, I don't have any family either." I smiled and agreed, seeing that he looked like a frightened little chubby, I wanted to rub his head, but halfway up my hand, I felt something was wrong , Changed to patting the shoulders, "Jun Luoshu, it's also very nice to hear."

Jun Luoshu nodded with a blushing face, borrowed a pen and paper and left me the address.

I had only sat for a while, and felt that my energy was exhausted, so I said goodbye to him and went back to the inn.

I slept from noon until night, only to wake up for a moment.

Ye Tan was wiping my back, saw me wake up, and asked: "Master, why is there a bruise on my shoulder?"

"I fell down today."

"...Those two people failed to catch you?" Ye Tan was annoyed.

"Of course, the rough people outside are not as good as my shadow guards."

Ye Tan stopped moving and coughed lightly.

I recalled the incident during the day again, and said excitedly, "Ah Tan, we have a family now."

Night Tan looked at me suspiciously.

I thought about the name of the mansion that would soon appear in the Yanyu Water Village that I had never set foot in, and went through it in my heart, feeling stable and soft.

I buried my face in his palm and rubbed it together: "There are many other things in this world besides killing people... I will teach you slowly in the future."
