[Three Kingdoms] Carnival

Spring is getting farther and farther away, and summer cicadas are singing.As the temperature gradually warmed to hot, and the doctor brought in the newly prescribed medicine to adjust, Guo Jia's health gradually improved, and the affairs in Guo's house were almost handled.After Guo Purlin's funeral, as expected at the beginning, Guo Yan never came to make any trouble again, Guo Jia began to dismiss the servants in the house one after another, and secretly sold all kinds of treasured calligraphy, paintings and jewelry, all of which were exchanged for eternal treasures. Gold that doesn't depreciate.The original house gradually became empty, and the center of gravity moved to the house in the outskirts. Now Guo Jia still insists on living here, just to deceive others.

] In the end, he stayed behind and even put more thought into running the business.Now that disasters are beginning to appear in all parties, the most orphans are orphans without father and mother. Guo Jia specially selected a group to enrich the octopus guards, and the group that has been trained will be sent to various forces as before. It was Yingchuan, and other counties and counties even sent people to the south.The only thing to worry about is that it takes a lot of money to support these things. Fortunately, the gold, silver and jewelry left by his father are still relatively rich. At present, at least it is no problem to feed so many people until he is weak.

On this day, when the sky was slightly bright, Guo Jia went out of the house, boarded the car, and drove to the suburbs.He was also accompanied by Xiwu, but within a few months, her childishness was completely wiped out, leaving only persistence and tenacity.Sitting in the car, she calmly reported to Guo Jia the information she had collected recently.

"These are the only things that have been sent so far." After reporting the recent information to Guo Jia in a concise manner, Xiwu picked up the fan and fanned the hot tea in the car.Guo Jia stared blankly at the flames for a while, then lifted the curtain next to him and cast his eyes outside the car.

The car has left Yangdi City and arrived in the suburbs, and the scenery has become more and more desolate.

He made a bet with Cao Cao that the world would be in chaos within ten years, but what is the standard for evaluating "chaos"?For some people in this era, as long as Chang'an is still full of traffic, as long as the Han Palace is still magnificent, as long as the glazed floor tiles are still full of beauties and dresses dancing, and the king is still drinking and having fun with his officials on the dragon chair, even the common people outside It is not "chaotic" to eat after changing children.

But if another standard is used, just looking at the scenery outside Yingchuan City is enough to help him win the bet.There are no birds and flowers, lakes and mountains, but only endless wasteland, because the land has not been rained for a long time, and there are countless refugees.

Most of them are ragged, yellow and thin, and gather together in twos and threes.Well, there are still things to build a simple shed, and more people can only endure silently under the scorching sun.Some people staggered towards the city gate, begging for a chance of life; more people went in the opposite direction... They had already experienced the last hope but were stopped by the officers and soldiers at the gate of the city, and now they are only at a loss With despair, I don't know where to go when I return.

Slightly closing his eyes, Guo Jia lowered the curtains. When he saw it for the first time, he would feel uncomfortable and indignant, but in the end, it all faded into the usual numbness.There are too many poor people in the world, he can save one, but he can't save all of them. The root cause of such a scene is not something he has the ability to eradicate.

In this troubled world, he can only seek to protect himself, and he really can't be anyone's savior.

With a "click", the car stopped, but luckily it didn't overturn the hot tea.Guo Jia glanced at Xiwu, who understood, opened the curtain and asked the driver what happened.

There was a loud noise coming from outside the car, and it became louder and louder, even the sound of "gurgling" tea making was suppressed.Guo Jia didn't even wrinkle his brows, he just leaned over and poured himself a cup of hot tea, and just after taking half a sip of the tea, Xi Wu returned to the car:

"Master, there are a group of refugees blocking the car outside, do you need to call guards to drive them away?"

"Do they have weapons?"

"Some of the heads are there, but most are not."

Putting down the teacup that was starting to get slightly hot, Guo Jia said slowly: "Tell them, if they really can't survive, they can go to the suburban area near the Jianning Pavilion outside the North City Gate tomorrow, and the Guo family will open a porridge shed. alive."

"Yes."

After listening to the words relayed by Xiwu, the refugees outside the car looked at each other, a little hesitant.But one person in the crowd shouted: "Don't listen to her nonsense! None of these people care about our life or death! We won't get anything once we let this car go! Steal them!"

The sound was like an oil drop falling into boiling water, and it immediately aroused a lot of echoes. Seeing that this group of people really wanted to make a move, the curtain of the car was lifted again.

"My young master said that not only will there be a porridge shed there, but doctors will also be invited to set up free clinics. If any relatives in the family are sick, they can go to the doctor. The medicinal materials will be sold at cost."

"You little girl, what are you talking about! Don't think we don't know, what is the cost price, knowing that we pay a penny..."

Before the person holding the weapon had finished speaking, he felt a chill on his neck. He turned his head and saw that a dart was firmly nailed to the wooden handle of the axe of the person behind him, while the rest of them had terrified expressions on their faces. Looking at the obviously thin little girl, she was holding another dart and sneered at them:

"No one has the responsibility to control you. The young master's kindness ends here. If you are willing to accept it, please ask early tomorrow. If you don't want to, please leave. Of course, you can also if you don't want to leave. If you want to die early, just stay."

A group of refugees whispered to each other, and finally one person quietly left. He left quietly, but caused an uproar. In the end, only a few people with weapons were left, still shouting at those who left, But no one stopped leaving.

"Damn it." The leader stabbed his sword into the ground and cursed, "A bunch of cowards, just a few of them, what are you afraid of!"

"When I came out of the Yellow Turban Army, I became a bandit. Every time this car went out of the city, someone would watch it for a full month, inquire about the good news and use the refugees to help me rob it. Such a troublesome thing can be done, Guo Tu is. How much did I give you?"

"You! You!" The little girl in front of her had clearly explained her origins and plans, and the leader's heart was shocked.He didn't know who asked him to do this job, but the money offered by the other party was really too much, so he agreed without even thinking about it.But what the other party said was easy to accomplish, but now it is so unsatisfactory, "You ask your young master to come out!"

"How do you know that it's the young master and not the young lady in the car? If you don't tell yourself, you have planned it long ago?"

"you!"

Xiwu smiled, and ignored people's panic.This place is not far from the house of the octopus guard, and the guards summoned at this time have already arrived, not to mention there are only a few people, she is confident that she can settle it.

These rogues are masters who use money to do things but bully the weak and fear the hard. Anyway, the money has been collected, and there is no need to return it if the matter is not completed. Now that the guards of the other side are here, their chances of winning are not very good. Most of them have the intention to quit. But those who take the lead don't retreat, how can they leave.

The atmosphere was a bit weird, but at this moment, the people behind saw the leader staggered a few steps back, and then fell down, and between the eyebrows was the dart that was still in Xiwu's hand just now.

The tree fell and the monkeys scattered. The group of people saw blood, so they couldn't care less. They threw down their weapons and fled faster than rabbits, and they disappeared immediately.

"Master, do you need to chase?"

"A group of mobs, forget it. But..." Looking at the back of the little one who was clearly behind among the fleeing people, Guo Jia turned his eyes slightly, "Bring back the child who fell behind."

"Yes."

The car wasn't too big, but it wouldn't be too crowded for three people. Since the child was brought back, he wasn't afraid, and just curled up in a corner of the car without saying a word.He was thin, but his delicate face was flushed abnormally, which indicated that the patient was seriously ill.

The more Guo Jia looked at him, the more interesting he became, so he rarely leaned over to pour him a cup of tea.The child took it silently, but didn't take a sip. A suspicious look in the amber pupil pierced Guo Jia's face, as sharp as a wolf.

"What are you worried about?" Guo Jia said in a frivolous tone, "You are less than ten years old, penniless, ragged, skinny, seriously ill, and no one will want you if you sell it. What are you worried about me coveting you?"

Perhaps Guo Jia's cool words stimulated the child, he finally opened his mouth, his voice was very hoarse, I don't know if it was because he hadn't dripped water for a long time:

"If I were really as useless as you said, you wouldn't have arrested me just now."

"Catch? I don't like that word very much. Besides, don't you think I'm showing kindness?"

Seeing Guo Jia's very "kind and friendly" smile, the child sneered: "You don't look like a kind and good person."

"Also, has anyone told you that you make people chill when you laugh?"

"...Then did someone tell you that children with such poisonous mouths are not liked at all."

"hehe, thanks for your complement."

This kid is so hot!

Guo Jia stared at the sneering face, and rarely wanted to swear.

Along the way, Guo Jia asked people about their origins in different ways, but he never got an answer from the other party.Seeing Guo Jia's expression of wanting to get angry but trying to hold back, Xiwu couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling, and immediately received Guo Jia's sad eyes, Xiwu immediately sat upright and said that there was nothing ridiculous.

When he arrived at the courtyard, Guo Jia looked at the child who followed the servant to the house. Guo Jia got out of the car a step later, and handed Xi Wu a small piece of cloth that he had secretly torn off from the child just now: "Let] Xiaowei take this and go to Hanoi to check it out." Tell me the details of this child within ten days."

After receiving the worn-out piece of fabric that could only be identified as being produced in Hanoi, Yugiri put away the smile in his eyes and said seriously, "Yes."

"He's fine, but he's hungry, thirsty, overworked, and suffering from the wind and cold. He needs to take the medicine and rest for four or five days." The doctor who diagnosed and treated him was an octopus guard who knew medical skills. After writing down the prescription, he withdrew and ordered The servant went to get the medicine.

After the pulse was taken, the child was still sitting quietly on the bed, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, but his amber eyes still did not hide their sharpness.Guo Jia has seen such a person before. He is obviously nervous and uneasy, but he insists on exposing all his thorns. He may not protect himself from disasters, but he will definitely make people want to help him. People stay away.

Aloof, stubborn, tenacious, like a wolf.

"Just now in the car, you don't want to tell me your origin, so you should tell me your name." Sitting next to the child, Guo Jia saw him subconsciously nervous sideways because someone suddenly approached him, and really didn't know what to do. Laugh or should laugh.

He wanted to move away, but it was really impolite. He gestured with his eyes, but the other party pretended not to see it.In desperation, he could only remind himself that he was living under the fence, and after struggling for a long time, he said quietly: "Qianjiu."

"Qianjiu?" Guo Jia paused, "In "Book of Changes", the ninth day of the Qian hexagram is Qianlong, and the ninth day is Feilong. With your name, do you mean that you are Qianlong or Feilong?"

"The name comes from my parents, how do I know." Gan Jiu's eyes flickered slightly, but she replied abruptly.

How many secrets does this child have, it is enough to leave it to the octopus guard, Guo Jia didn't ask any further questions, but said: "Then you should take good care of your illness first, and we will talk about it after you recover."

Seeing that the young man in Tsing Yi was about to step out of the house, Gan Jiu secretly bit her lower lip, and finally shouted loudly: "If I want to stay, what will I have to pay?!"

"Stay?" Guo Jia turned around and looked at him with some doubts.

"The world is in chaos. Even if I get cured here, I will get sick and die after I leave. I don't want to die." After a pause, Gan Jiu raised his eyes and stared straight at Guo Jia, "I can't die either."

I don't know if it's because it doesn't fit the eyes of this age at all, or because of people's words, Guo Jia burst out laughing: "You saw me just now, all the guards I train in this house are hidden guards, if you want Stay here, and from now on you will listen to my orders and do things for me."

"Also, in this world, even the Ninth Five-Year Master is often worthless. Where do you have the confidence that you can't die?"

Gan Jiu was stunned for a while, and was about to answer when she came back to her senses, but found that the person had already gone away.

"Young Master, you intended to keep him, so why did you have to tell that child?" Back in the room, Xi Wu still couldn't help asking.She is a woman, and she has a natural softness towards children. In addition, although Gan Jiu's face is stern, but because she has not grown up, she is still childish, so she is very lovable.She was still a little distressed when she saw her face turn red when someone said "I want to stay".

But Guo Jia obviously didn't understand the nature of women in these aspects. He frowned when he heard someone ask this question: "You care about that child so much? Like him?"

"Master, what nonsense are you talking about! He's still a child!" Xi Wu expressed a headache to Guo Jia whose IQ had suddenly dropped.

Seeing that people's words don't seem to be fake, Guo Jiachang breathed out and felt relieved.To Xiwu, he really loves her as a younger sister, as a conscientious elder brother, for any danger of abducting his younger sister... Hehe.

Coughing twice, Guo Jia tried to ease the embarrassment just now, and then explained:

"This kid Gan Jiu has too much vigor. If I bring it up, he will agree, but it is far less than the struggle he had when he said it himself. It is easy to break the rigidity. Only let him understand that Zhang Yang's vigor can only be achieved when he has his own strength." Strength should only be revealed. Without strength, one must leave behind the worthless so-called arrogance, learn to endure, and wait."

Guo Jia is very interested in gradually polishing a young wolf into a wolf with the strength to run across the wilderness.

However, eight days later, when Guo Jia received the information sent by the octopus guard, he wished to kill himself, who was full of interest at the time.

Looking at the three words that once existed in memory, Guo Jia wanted to cry but had no tears.

He just wants to find a safe place to hang out, is it necessary for one or two to play with him like this?Can he throw the wolf cub now? !

Guo Jia sighed heavily looking at the person who was just getting better and couldn't wait to go to the courtyard with others to train.
