When Fang Jie woke up, it was already the morning of the third day after he entered the imperial capital. He had been unconscious for two nights and one and a half days. This was the first time that Fang Jie had been in such a state in front of strangers in a strange place without being conscious. A defenseless state.
So after waking up, Fang Jie was a little touched at first, thinking that there are still many kind-hearted people in this world. Then he calmed down and silently felt if there was anything wrong with his body. When he suddenly realized that he was naked, he was shocked. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the things he was carrying next to the pillow, especially the pile of banknotes.
After lying there for three seconds, he angrily counted the banknotes.
The tearing pain in his lower abdomen has disappeared, replaced by a fatigue as if he had just run fifty miles. He was so tired that his speed at counting money dropped more than ten times compared to before. He was so tired that after counting the banknotes, he didn't even have the strength to lift his arms.
This is a feeling he has never felt before. It is more tiring than when he stupidly participated in the five-thousand-meter long-distance race in the school sports meeting in his previous life.
It was as if all the strength in the body had been drained away, and now all that was lying on the bed was a soft inflatable doll.
Just when Fang Jie was recalling what happened before he fell into coma, the door creaked and someone pushed it open from the outside. Fang Jie turned his head and took a look, then showed a smile full of gratitude. He knew that he wouldn't look good even if he smiled like this, but he knew that his smile must be sincere, a rare kind of sincerity.
The person who came in was Wu Yiyi, the richest man in the Sui Dynasty.
Iconic sapphire blue brocade clothes, iconic gentle smile.
Although Fang Jie had never seen Wu Yiyi, when he was hiding in the carriage of Wuji Trading Company, he did not see this famous Sui man who saved his life after receiving 1,100 taels of silver from him. But Fang Jie knew that the person who came in must be Wu Yiyi.
Although he is not very tall or strong, he looks tall, tall and slightly thin. The unique charm of a middle-aged man is clearly revealed in him, and he looks very elegant even if he doesn't speak. It is difficult for a man with such an appearance and such a temperament to have anything to do with copper odor.
People should not be judged by their appearance, and the sea water should not be diluted.
"Fortunately you're awake."
Wu Yiyi said with a smile, and then sat down on the chair next to the bed. He reached for the teapot on the table, poured a cup of herbal tea and handed it to Fang Jie. Fang Jie shook his head slightly to indicate that he didn't have the strength to pick up the cup. Wu Dao was slightly surprised, then sat on the edge of the bed, held Fang Jie's back of the head and fed him some water.
The water entered his stomach, and the coolness was so thorough that Fang Jie couldn't help but groan in comfort.
"I thought I was going to die, too."
When he spoke, he realized that his voice was hoarse, like the sound of wind blowing through a broken gong. If he hadn't been sure that the sound came from his own throat, he would have even suspected that there was a third person in the room.
Wu Yiyi smiled and said: "If you don't wake up, I will have to put you in a sack and throw you outside the city. If they are kind-hearted, they may dig a hole and bury you. If they are lazy, you They will either be eaten by wild dogs or left to rot and grow maggots.¡±
"You are not such a person."
Fang Jie gasped and said.
"Why?"
Wu Yiyi was somewhat interested in Fang Xie¡¯s impression of him.
"Ifif you are a person who only values ??profit, then it is really not worth taking me in for these 1,100 taels of silver. Because I may have a murder case on me, and I may be a deserterThe military discipline of the Sui Dynasty was too harsh. Even if your identity is not scary, it will still be troublesome.¡±
"BesidesI trust my feelings."
Fang Jie said seriously.
Wu Daodao smiled, walked back to the chair and sat down and said: "I believe this is the most unreliable reason. When I started from scratch, I thought like you, and I believe in my own feelings. But when I think about it three times in a row After losing all the money I borrowed, I finally realized that this thing was bullshit. So, I managed to borrow fifteen taels of silver for the fourth time, and started doing business not based on my feelings, but based on my previous three failures. Only by practicing these six words, walking more, seeing more and thinking more, can you make a small profit at most if you do business with a mind that prevents others, but you can make a lot of money by doing business with a mind that harms others.¡±
"Instead of believing in your feelings, you should believe that you have the value of existence."
He said.
Fang Jie hummed, knowing that Wu Yiyi said nothing wrong. If he has no value at all, Wu Daodao, who can become the richest man in the world, is definitely not a bad person who does good deeds and accumulates virtue.Keep yourself. No matter in this world or in the past life, if bad people can become extremely rich, then sows can climb trees.
"Can I ask you one more thing?"
Fang Jie asked after being silent for a while.
"you say"
"My friend lives in Chunfeng Inn. He is a very special man. He is thin and short. He looks like he is about fifty years old, but he is actually in his thirties. Under normal circumstances, he does not know how to change his clothes. He is wearing dirty leather. Yaoplease inform him that I am still alive. If you can't find him at the inn, you can send someone to Hongxiu to inform Madam Xi."
"good"
Wu Yiyi nodded.
When he heard the three words "Red Sleeve Move", a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Have a good rest, I will pick up your friend. In additionsince yesterday morning, there has been a female Qianhu from the Ouchi Guards Department, leading people like crazy to search for something in Chang'an City, and it has been all day and night. Stopdoes it have anything to do with you?"
"have!"
Fang Jie nodded: "Please tell her that I'm fine, please."
"Um"
Wu Yiyi stood up and was about to leave. When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped again. He looked back at Fang Jie and asked with a smile: "You seem to owe me a thank you."
Fang Jie slowly shook his head and said solemnly: "I'm so kind, I don't dare to say thank you."
Wu Yiyi¡¯s eyes lit up, he nodded with a smile and turned to leave. After leaving the group, Wu Yiyi's steps were very relaxed, and the smile on his lips became stronger and stronger.
¡¡
¡¡
The big dog was brought into Wu Yiyi's house less than an hour after Wu Yiyi left. What even Fang Jie didn't expect was that the old lame Mr. Luo from Hong Xiuzhao also came with him, and his eyes were red and his face was red. Mu Xiaoyao was so exhausted that it made people feel distressed.
When Da Quan entered the door and saw Fang Jie lying on the bed, his expression stiffened for a moment and then he started to giggle. Fang Jie nodded slightly to him, indicating that he was fine. But the deep apology and guilt in Big Dog's eyes pierced Fang Jie's heart like a needle.
The old lame man didn¡¯t say anything after seeing Fang Jie. He sat down on a chair and started drinking. But maybe even he didn't know it, but his face looked much relieved. Speaking of which, he really hadn't slept well since Fang Jie disappeared. He didn't know what was going on, but it was clearly a trash he didn't like, but it actually made him a little uneasy.
"Small waist sister"
Fang Jie looked at Mu Xiaoyao and called out, then praised him sweetly: "You look really good in this flying fish robe from the imperial guards."
The flying fish robe is very solemn, not as hot and glamorous as her red dress. Those stunning white legs were not exposed, but Fang Jie really felt that this outfit looked great on Mu Xiaoyao.
Mu Xiaoyao was silent, the slender hands exposed outside the cuffs still trembling slightly.
¡°Don¡¯t take it off, okay?¡±
There was a pleading tone in Fang Jie's tone.
"I know you must be feeling uncomfortable about this accident, and I also know that you must have planned to take off this flying fish robe and continue to guard me once you find me, but Miss Xiaoyao you can't just think about me, but you also have to think about me. Yourself. Mr. Zhuo is indeed the most suitable master for you. With him, your cultivation will definitely improve by leaps and bounds."
When he finished saying this, the old lame man sitting aside drinking snorted coldly.
Fang Jie smiled awkwardly, looked at the old cripple and said, "Don't be angry, I don't mean to disrespect you."
The old lame man said coldly: "If I hadn't happened to know that the man named Zhuo was indeed more suitable to be a master with a small waist, do you think I would have been taken away as my disciple and wouldn't even dare to fart? The man named Zhuo has not been around since he returned to the imperial capital. Aren't you afraid of meeting me when you go out of the Ouchi Guards' Office?"
"The old man is mighty"
Fang Jie flattered him, then turned to look at Mu Xiaoyao and asked softly, "Promise me, okay?"
Mu Xiaoyao was silent for a long time, then nodded and said: "I will try my best to use the fastest time so that Mr. Zhuo has nothing to teach me."
Fang Jie hummed and laughed sincerely.
He looked at Big Dog and the three of them, opened his mouth and hesitated to speak.
"Shen Qingshan left the inn after you disappeared. She didn't say what she was going to do, but she must have gone to look for you. I know her temperament If she can't find you, she will kill someone. Big Dog set off fireworks to find me After that, I asked Mr. Zhuo for help in asking for some information to confirm that you might enter the martial arts arena after leaving Chang'an City. However, Mr. Zhuo tried to find a way to ask, but no one saw you in the martial arts arena. I guessed that you would definitely return to Chang'an City. , so I kept looking for it in the city.¡±
Mu Xiaoyao guessed itFang Jie¡¯s worries.
Fang Jie glanced at Mu Xiaoyao, and Mu Xiaoyao understood the meaning in his eyes: "I will find a way to find her, as soon as possible."
Fang Jie nodded, still feeling very nervous.
The old cripple stood up, put the wine gourd on his back, and walked out with his hands behind his back: "You can keep it here, no one dares to disturb you in Sanjinhou's mansion. You kid is lucky to have found such a good place. Yes. I will come here soon, and I hate giving up halfway in my life Besides, I don't believe that the disciples taught by Zhuo are better than those taught by me, even if I teach a waste, I may be lame, but my heart is stronger than anyone else. , Can¡¯t afford to embarrass anyone.¡±
Fang Jie felt warm in his heart, looked at the old lame man's back and called out: "Master"
The old lame man stopped for a moment, and his shoulders could be seen shaking slightly: "Don't call me master. If you can't practice one-style swordsmanship, you don't have the qualifications."
Fang Jie nodded vigorously, his eyes slightly red.
"I have to go back too. First I will go to Mr. Zhuo to find a way to find Shen Qingshan."
Mu Xiaoyao came over to help Fang untie the quilt and tuck the corners of the quilt very gently. There were only Fang Jie, her and Da Quan left in the house, so she didn't mind showing her gentle side. Although before this, such gentle Mu Xiaoyao had appeared very rarely.
"Let's sleep some more."
She said, and then Fang Jie kissed him gently on the forehead, which made Fang Jie's heart beat.
This feeling is familiar yet strange.
Fang Jie¡¯s heart almost stopped, and even breathing became difficult for a moment.
"nothing¡¡"
Mu Xiaoyao raised his hand to straighten the hair hanging down in front of his forehead, hiding the slight blush that appeared on his cheeks: "You always asked me to kiss you when you couldn't sleep when you were a child."
She explained.
Can it be explained and useful?
She turned around and left quickly, not daring to look back.
Fang Jie raised his hand and touched his forehead, and after a while he started to giggle. The big dog sat aside and looked at him, also giggling along with him.
¡¡

That night
? Red Sleeve Moves
The old lame man who had fallen asleep suddenly opened his eyes. In a daze, he had arrived at the entrance of the main hall. He stood in the room and listened, and then his expression suddenly changed. He obviously hesitated for a moment, but finally opened the door. As soon as the figure flashed, the old cripple had disappeared and seemed to melt into the night. Just as he disappeared, Xi Huamei stood on the third floor looking at the door with a complicated expression.
Ten minutes later, the old lame man left and returned.
He held a bloody woman in his arms.
A very beautiful woman.
Perhaps because of excessive blood loss, her face was frighteningly pale. But precisely because of this, that alluring face added a bit of sad beauty.
The old lame man raised his head and looked at Xi Huamei standing on the third floor, and shook his head apologetically.
Xi Huamei nodded and said softly: "Since we have been saved, we must save her. Although I don't want to get involved in anything, but if I get involved, there is nothing to be afraid of. Mr. Luo I am actually a little happy in my heart. Seeing you for the first time in so many years makes my heart come alive again.¡±
The old lame man glanced at Xi Huamei gratefully, and carried the bloody woman to the backyard of Hong Xiuzhao. Xi Huamei raised his hand and dropped something, which happened to fall on the seriously injured woman. The old cripple looked down and saw a small porcelain vase.
"The Four Marks Pill is not as good as his Little Golden Pill but it is still useful in saving people."
Xi Huamei said in a calm tone.
The old cripple nodded and ducked into the backyard.
"Go clean up."
Xi Huamei waved his hand, and then a dozen figures emerged from the darkness and left Hongxiuzhao.
Ouchi Guards Office
Luo Weiran glanced at Hou Wenji, who had a gloomy expression, and couldn't help but sigh: "I really want to see who is so ruthless who dares to kill a hundred people in one go from the main entrance of the Ministry of War Yamen. Among the four people, apart from the guards on duty, more than twenty military attach¨¦s of the third and fourth grades died three of the seventh grade, and one of the eighth grade It was so big that they could still escape from the hands of a ninth-grade strongman who rushed over. Such courage and cruel temper.¡±
"Is the emperor going to be in trouble?"
Hou Wenji shook his head, with a faint look of worry on his face.
