C35 Chapter 35
"What's the matter?" Lu Changkong stopped and asked in a simple manner.
"En!" Lin Meier nodded and shook her head.
"Since the young lady is fine, let it be easy!" After Lu Changkong finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Wait a moment!" Lin Meier bit her lower lip and softly asked, "You spent so much effort to win me over and let me go just like that?"
"What else should I do?" Lu Changkong smiled evilly and said, "Should I rape you first and then kill you? Transfer to become a female slave? Or sell you to a brothel?"
"You. . . Don't go too far. " Bean-sized tears rolled down Lin Meier's face.
Lu Changkong was stunned and said coldly, "I advise you not to test the conscience of a person in the underworld. If my pitiful conscience is completely worn down, what would I do?"
His threat did not work, but Lin Meier cried even louder.
Lu Changkong panicked and shouted in anger, "Cry? If you cry again! Be careful, I'll drag you out and feed you to the dogs. Wang Han, Wang Han. . . Where did you die?"
" I am here, I am here. . . "Wang Han ran in step by step. Behind him were Lao Yao and Gu Laodao, who were carrying knives.
Lu Changkong's face darkened even more. "Tie her up and sell her to a brothel. " Wang Han and the others surrounded her like tigers and wolves.
"Boss Lu, you don't have to scare me. I know you won't do that!" Lin Meier wiped away her tears. She was as calm as a bamboo stick in her chest.
"I'm just trying to scare you. Do you really think I, Lu Aada, am made of paper? Do you believe that I won't find a hundred men to sleep with you right now?" Lu Changkong was exposed in front of his face, and he flew into a rage out of humiliation.
"Alright, you can sleep with me now!" Lin Meier stuck her chest out and raised her head, looking directly at Lu Changkong with a layer of tears covering her eyes.
"Humph!" Lu Changkong coldly snorted and turned around to leave without looking back.
Lin Meier looked at the back view and laughed out loud.
When night fell, even Wang Han, who was even more noisy than crickets, fell asleep. Lu Changkong was still reading at night.
Lu Changkong shook the empty teapot and slowly stood up. Compared to ordering the maidservants around, he preferred to pour tea for himself. However, he was still very happy that the young maidservant had been waiting outside the door for his orders. However, in the next moment, his happiness turned into surprise.
"Boss Lu, do you want some tea?" Lin Meier, who was waiting outside the door, asked Lu Changkong gently, "You haven't left the Ruyi?"
Lin Meier added water to the teapot, "Pretending to be cold does not make you really call yourself a hero of a generation. "
"You said I am faking it?" Lu Changkong looked at Lin Meier with interest.
"Logically speaking, I should be thankful that you let me go. However, I am really curious why you let me go after winning against me. " Lin Meier sat opposite Lu Changkong and stared at him unblinkingly.
Lu Changkong smiled evilly and said, "I have a bad habit. The more others want to know, the more I will not tell them. Seeing him so anxious that he went crazy. "
"You. . . " Lin Meier sighed and said, "Why do you have to pretend to be a bad person?"
"Pretending to be a bad person?" Lu Changkong sneered and said, "I am a bad person. A good person would open a casino and a brothel. Would they kill someone because of a disagreement? Little girl, don't think too highly of this world. Every person has a beast's face hidden under their skin. Mine will be even more ferocious. "
"Don't tell me those big truths, okay? Can you talk to me like a friend? " Lin Meier started to protest.
"It is already very late. Don't stay in a man's room. " Lu Changkong refused and said, "Miss, please!"
Lin Meier bowed and slowly left. Looking at the starry sky above her head, Lin Meier took a deep breath. She did not know why she came to find Lu Changkong, just like how Lu Changkong did not know why he let her go. They were all looking for a dignified reason and hiding the slight tremble in their hearts.
For the next three days, Lin Meier quietly appeared beside Lu Changkong like a puppy. Lu Changkong never talked to Lin Meier. Lin Meier also did not disturb Lu Changkong. Both of them seemed to regard each other as air and acted as if nothing had happened. But they knew it was just a silent contest, even though they didn't know what the outcome would be. However, they all enjoyed the process of the contest.
Only Wang Han and the other two looked at Lin Meier and Lu Changkong with more and more ambiguous eyes.
Finally, Lin Meier surrendered. After having breakfast with Lu Changkong and the others, Lin Meier softly said, "Boss Lu, I think. . . I should take my leave. "
"Oh!" Lu Changkong's heart trembled slightly. "I will ask Wang Han to send you off. "
"Boss Lu, can I ask you something?"
"What is there to beg?" Before Lu Changkong could say anything, Wang Han had already shouted, "Big brother has a huge amount of people, and he is loyal to his friends. As long as you ask him, he will not hesitate to do it. "
Lu Changkong gave Wang Han a sideways glance and said, "Is there anything that can help young lady?"
"I came out this time to find a thousand year old ginseng king to treat my grandfather's illness. However, I couldn't find it even after I went to three cities. Boss Lu has a lot of connections. Can you help me take note of it?"
"The Thousand Year Ginseng King is a good thing, but it can't cure all kinds of diseases. If the medicine is not right, it will delay the illness. " Lu Changkong immediately felt regret after saying this.
Lin Meier's eyes lit up. "Boss Lu's medical skills are brilliant. I have seen it before. I wonder if you can give a consultation for my grandpa?"
"You said it!" Wang Han made the decision for Lu Changkong again. "Every doctor in Fan City is counted as one. That kind of medical skills can only treat headaches and brain heat. It's not even worthy of pouring a toilet bowl for my big brother. Your grandfather's illness is on my big brother. If he can't cure it, cut off my head and kick it like a ball. "
"Big brother Wang's head is so big, little sister can't kick it!" Lin Meier lightly smiled and turned to look at Lu Changkong.
"I can't guarantee that I can cure your grandfather's illness, but I can give it a try. "
"That's great!" Lin Meier was so happy that she almost jumped up and thanked him repeatedly.
Lu Changkong used the fastest time to tell her about the matter of the Ruyi. He took Wang Han and the other two to Lin Meier's home - the courtyard in the sea of trees.
Lu Changkong originally thought that the courtyard in the sea of trees belonged to some official's family, or some other Shuxiang family's residence. Only after arriving did he realize that he had made a huge mistake. It was a standard martial arts family. It was based on the skills of the guards and servants that came and went. From the looks of it, the strength of Lin Hai Courtyard could not be described as "robust" in the secular world.
Lu Changkong and the others looked at the butler who came out and frowned. He had seen many martial arts masters, but not many ordinary people could enter the Lin Hai Courtyard, especially the Eldest Miss who usually looked up to them and respected them so much!
If he knew that Lu Changkong and the others were masters who deliberately concealed their auras, he did not know what he would think.
The old butler politely let Lu Changkong and the others into the living room. After serving tea, he apologized to the owner of the cultivation room and hurriedly invited him to go.
After he walked far away, Lu Changkong whispered to Lin Meier, "You are from a martial arts family?"
"Yes! However, I have never learned martial arts. Dad always said that girls who fight and kill will lose their dignity, so he did not even teach me a move and a half. " Lin Meier could not help but say anxiously, "Lu, it was not that I wanted to hide it from you, it was just that you did not ask me. Don't blame me! "
Lu Changkong did not know whether to laugh or cry. "I did not blame you! It's just that. . . I was just a little surprised. "
Lin Meier said softly, "My father's temper is a little strange. If he offends you, you should not argue with him on my account, okay?"
Before Lu Changkong could say anything, he heard someone say, "I didn't know the honored guest had arrived. Sorry for not welcoming you from afar!"
Lu Changkong looked towards the direction where the voice came from. The Lin family's patriarch, Lin Tao, and the other five people walked in one after another. Although Lin Tao's temples were slightly white, he had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. There was a hidden light in his eyes. One look and one could tell his cultivation level and spirit. The four elders behind him were also out-and-out experts. However, the five of them carried the unique pride of the martial arts world and made people feel that it was not easy to get close to them.
Lin Tao sized up Lu Changkong and the others and said with great disappointment: "Sit, serve tea. "
Lu Changkong cupped his hands and sat at the bottom of Lin Tao's seat.
Lin Meier introduced, "This Lu was invited by me to treat grandpa. . . "
"Oh! Mr Lu is a doctor?" In Lin Tao's impression, doctors were like good wine, the older the better. This person was a bit too young.
"I, Lu Aada, am doing some small business in Fan City. I learned medicine for a few days. "
When Lin Tao heard Lu Changkong's vulgar name, he frowned again, but he still asked out of habit, "I wonder, what business does Mr Lu do?"
"As long as I can make money, I will do it. "
"Hmph!" Lin Shu, one of the Fourth Elder, snorted and said, "It is as if there is a mountain separating us from each other. Lu is not a doctor, so please go back! If there is a mistake in the medicine, no one will look good on the surface. "
Great Ming still maintained the concept of feudal society's hierarchy. "Agriculture and commerce" merchants were ranked last. Lin Shu, who held his own status, thought that he was someone important. Of course, he wouldn't put a small merchant in his eyes. After he finished speaking, he held a letter and flipped through it without even lifting it up.
Lin Meier heard it and felt anxious in her heart. "Second Uncle, Lu's medical skills are indeed very brilliant. I have seen it before. "
Lin Shu only snorted lightly and ignored them. Lin Tao and the others also held their teacups and ignored Lu Changkong.
Lu Changkong said indifferently, "May I know who made the letter in brother Lin Shu's hand?"
Lin Shu raised his eyebrows and said with contempt, "You know calligraphy too?"
Wang Han could not hold it in anymore after seeing Lin Tao's attitude. Seeing Lin Shu look down on Lu Changkong again, he could not help but say angrily, "The calligraphy that you are looking for. Just because you know how to write those lousy words, you dare to ask my brother if he knows calligraphy? Let me tell you, about the things in the sky. . . My big brother knows half of it. My big brother knows everything about the matters on the ground. "
After Wang Han said that, Gu Laodao and Lao Yao also revealed a look of disdain. They looked like they were looking at a bunch of country bumpkins who had never seen the world. However, Wang Han wasn't boasting. Although Lu Changkong had never learned magic before, he had learned a lot of miscellaneous things. Three Crazy and One Egg were both skilled in both civil and martial arts. They studied the heavens, the zither, chess, painting. There was no lack of understanding in arithmetic. Otherwise, the Snow Marshal of the past wouldn't have been admired by thousands of beauties. Although Lu Changkong did not learn all of his abilities, He had also obtained seventy to eighty percent of his true teachings, which was enough for him to look down on the secular world.
