Leaving the country, Cloud City.

Yunzhong City is adjacent to Qingzhou where Qin Yixiao lives now, and the moat that runs through Qingzhou also runs through this city.

Qingzhou is the capital city of Liguo. Its status is only second to the imperial capital.The common people live and work here in peace and contentment. For hundreds of years, no war has spread here. Qingzhou City is peaceful and quiet.The Yunzhong City, which is connected by a river, is very lively. Merchants from all over the world come and go here in an endless stream. Even the night market is brightly lit. Someone once commented on the Yunzhong City, saying that it brings together all kinds of goods from all over the world.

There are special large ships that carry people between two completely different cities, and each person only needs to spend a penny.

Liu Luoxi led the horse and walked slowly on the crowded streets. Both sides of the road were full of vendors with shrewd eyes, and all kinds of strange things were placed on the stalls in front of them.

Qin Yixiao and Yu Ran left the country of Yin, and everyone was very busy at the beginning of the spring plowing, and there was no time to play with her, and the remaining one, Yao, Shunyu, was a nuisance in her heart, so she simply went to Liguo to relax and walk around. It's better than being bored at home, and I also came back to see my grandfather who is away from the country.

"Girl, come and have a look." At the corner of the road, a young peddler with the appearance of a child waved to Liu Luoxi, pointing to the black wooden box in his hand, "This thing is very rare, I guarantee you haven't seen it before, it's passed by in the sky and on the earth In the next 500 years, there will be nothing comparable to it.”

The boy tried his best to pretend to be an outsider, but his tied hair was a bit messy, and the old robe he was wearing was too big for him, and it looked a little funny when he wore it baggy.

Liu Luoxi stopped in her tracks, and was aroused curiosity. The Liuyuan Pavilion of her Liu family is scattered all over the place. It is the number one business in the world. She has seen more strange things than people she knows since she was a child. She wants to take a look. What is so magical about this box.

The boy watched the girl in the blue dress come leading the horse, and knowing that she had aroused her interest, he smiled.Although he was only 13 years old, he had already wandered in Yunzhong City for many years. He had seen a lot of people of all kinds, and he could tell at a glance who was poor in gorgeous silks and satin, and who was rich in ordinary clothes.

Temperament and details, some things have become habits poured into the human body, which cannot be changed by changing a suit of clothes.

"Don't brag." Liu Luoxi took a closer look, but couldn't see anything for the time being.

"If you're bragging, you can just throw me into the moat." The boy vowed, and he rolled up his overlong sleeves, "Girl, please watch carefully."

The boy opened the box and asked Liu Luoxi to confirm that there was nothing inside. After Liu Luoxi nodded, he closed it again, muttering some incomprehensible words with his eyes closed, like something sung by Wu Zhu during the sacrifice. spell.

With a sly smile in his eyes, the boy opened the box again, and there was a pure white rabbit inside, with his ears twitching and his body trembling slightly.

"How about the girl, this is a magic weapon handed down from ancient times. It can create something out of nothing, and it has magic power." The boy finished speaking proudly. If he wants to see a look of surprise on the other party's face, it is best to ask curiously. How on earth did he do it so that he could tell a story he had made up long ago and finally sell the box.

But the girl in front of him didn't show the expression he was looking forward to, which made him feel a little drummed. He tentatively said, "If you want... I'll sell it to you for three gold baht."

"Three gold baht..."

"Two gold baht is fine too... so cheap, do you still need to think about it?"

"It needs to be considered." Saying this, Liu Luoxi made a distressed expression.

"Then..." The boy stretched out a finger, "A gold baht?"

Liu Luoxi suddenly smiled, curled her hair with her fingers and said quietly, "I was thinking about how to throw you into the moat. The river water should be cool in summer, right?"

How could such a little trick fool her? It was just a simple trick on the box, which made her think it was really something fun, and she couldn't help being disappointed.

The little boy smiled awkwardly, knowing that the other party had seen through his trick, he took a small step back calmly, picked up the box suddenly and prepared to escape, the movement was so fast that even the rabbit in the box jumped.

It's a pity that he took a step and was grabbed by the collar.

Liu Luoxi's martial arts is not that good, it's just that her grandfather hired some masters to teach some simple moves for self-defense, but it is more than enough to deal with ordinary people, let alone a child.

"Little devil, you want to run away after cheating?" Liu Luoxi pulled him back, "If you have the courage to lie to others, don't you have the courage to admit it? You became a liar at a young age. Didn't your parents teach you the principles of life?" ?”

"I don't understand the principles of saints. I only know that if you don't have money, you can't eat and you can't live. You rich people, do you know what it's like to be hungry!" the boy said loudly, and he suddenly became angry. Parents, no one taught him that, he can't even recognize his own name.

"what's your name?"

"Qian Wu." After the boy answered, he turned his head away from Liu Luoxi with a stubborn face.He doesn't think he is a bad person, because he never cheats the poor, he only cheats the rich and greedy.

"It looks like someone owes you." Liu Luoxi shook her head helplessly, and let go of the boy, "Forget it, let you go."

Looking at Liu Luoxi's back, the boy was stunned for a moment, usually he would be beaten up if he was exposed.After being dazed for a while, he came back to his senses, only to find a few gold bahts on the table. He reached out and grabbed the gold baht in his hand, lowered his head and stroked the soft fluff on the top of the rabbit's head, for some reason...

Suddenly I want to cry.

"Give way, let go." Someone behind him urgently urged, Liu Luoxi led the horse to the side, and made way for a way. The man squeezed through the crowd and drove forward.

Afterwards, more and more people appeared, looking anxious and hurrying.

"What happened in front, why are you walking that way?" Liu Luoxi stopped one person and asked.

"Oh, a new storytelling library has opened in the south of the city. It is different from other libraries. There is a big stage on the side. While telling the story, the husband invited actors to perform on the other side. Everyone wants to go and try something new. Can't get a seat."

This is a bit interesting... Liu Luoxi decided to go and have a look first before going back to Qingzhou.

She led the horse and walked slowly among the crowd. When she arrived, the story was about to end.

The gentleman's hall wood fell hard on the table and made a loud sound. The music stopped abruptly here, and the woman who fell in the man's arms on the stage also got up, and the two bowed to the audience.

The people in the audience applauded.

The man in brocade clothes and robes stood up from the seat in the front row, and walked onto the stage calmly, followed by a servant, holding a tray full of gold baht in his hand.

Liu Luoxi watched as the master and servant walked onto the stage and stood still in front of the woman. She couldn't hear what was said, but she could only see the woman shaking her head and was about to retreat behind the scenes, but the man grabbed her wrist.

"What are you doing now?" Liu Luoxi asked the old man beside her.

"What can a rich man do if he sends so much money to the actor? He wants to buy her to be his concubine..."

"But she doesn't seem to like it."

"So what if you don't like it." The old man shook his head, this is the way of the world, "That is the second son of the wealthy Zhao family, who dares to meddle in his business, girl, you should leave quickly, there is something to do , pretend it didn’t happen if you don’t see it.”

The crowd began to disperse, the elderly also walked away, and Liu Luoxi's vision gradually widened.The entanglement between the two on the stage became even more intense. The man put his arms around the woman's waist and kissed the woman's neck in broad daylight.

The woman pushed the Second Young Master Zhao hard, "Thank you Young Master for your love, Ning Ling accepts it, but Ning Ling doesn't care about his family yet, please Young Master..."

"It's just an actor, why pretend to be noble?" Second Young Master Zhao half-closed his eyes and said viciously, and was about to reach out to flirt with the actor named Ning Ling, when someone grabbed his wrist suddenly.

"She said she didn't want to, didn't you hear?"

The good thing was ruined, and the second son of Zhao turned his head angrily, wanting to see who is so bold, but after seeing Liu Luoxi's appearance, he calmed down, "What the girl said is, I don't know, girl...would you like it?" Willing?"

Seeing his disgusting face, Liu Luoxi became angry, and exerted force on her hand, "I told you to talk nonsense."

The Second Young Master Zhao yelled in pain, and the servant next to him realized that he wanted to come forward to help, but Liu Luoxi kicked him off the stage.Then she kicked Second Young Master Zhao again, and Second Young Master Zhao rolled down the stairs like a ball.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

"Let's go." Taking Ning Ling's hand, Liu Luoxi took her out and ran to the bottom of the stage. She remembered something again, climbed onto a table and jumped, grabbing a stick hanging from above. thin line.

"That can't be said!" The storyteller shouted, and the stage that was simply built had already collapsed.

********

Qian Wu passed by an alley and threw a penny into a beggar's bowl. He was often poor, but when he had a little money, he was willing to help people in need.

The noise outside the alley gradually increased. Qian Wu poked his head out and saw a familiar figure. The woman who had let him go and gave him gold baht just now was holding the hand of another woman. There were many people behind him. chasing them.

He turned around and wanted to leave, usually he is a person who is very afraid of trouble, but this time for some reason, he always felt a faint impulse flowing in his body.

Gritting his teeth, he rushed out of the alley.

"Hey, this way!" He whispered.

Liu Luoxi saw him, pulled Ning Ling and walked over, "Little devil, why are you here?"

"Is now the time to ask these questions?" Qian Wu glanced at her, "I'll take you to the ferry on a small path. There are many people there, and it's easier to escape. Go this way."

Qian Wu didn't ask anything, it's not good for him to know too many things.

The number of people who fled changed from two to three, and the pursuers were far and near, but they were never left behind.

There was a boat at the ferry just leaving the shore. The tall and wide hull made it look like a house on the water.Liu Luoxi jumped on the shore and waved, "Hey, boatman, give us a ride!"

"I'm sorry, girl, this is a private boat and we don't carry people." The man at the bow put away the board and shook his head.

"If you don't carry us, we will be thrown into the moat to feed the fish in a while!" Liu Luoxi turned around and looked, after a while, those people will chase here, they have been running for a long time, no one can I can't run anymore.

"Really not, girl, you..."

"Put a board and let them come up." Before the man finished speaking, a voice came from the cabin, his voice a little hoarse.

"master……"

"nothing."

The boat was rowed back to the shore, and the long board connected the land and the boat. Qian Wu and Ning Ling went up first, and Liu Luoxi followed.

The huge sails were unfurled, blocking the sunlight and cast a large shadow on the ship. Qian Wu had never been on such a large ship. The public ship between Qingzhou and Yunzhong was one-third the size of this one. He was excited Rush to the bow and look out.

The group of people behind caught up at this time, Liu Luoxi waved her hands like a little girl and shouted, "Haha, goodbye, everyone!"

She turned around, took Ning Ling's hand and waved, then smiled with satisfaction.

"Girl, what did you do to make so many people chase you?" The voice in the cabin sounded again.

"It's nothing." Liu Luoxi smiled, the wind blew over and made her skirt flutter, "It's just robbing a girl, beating up a bully, and tearing down their stage."

People in the cabin coughed.

"Are you sick?" Liu Luoxi asked.

"It's just an old illness. It's nothing. After all, I did you a favor, girl. Should the girl thank me?"

"You saved three people, thank you is not bad, but I don't have anything valuable with me for the time being, do you have a pen and paper?"

As soon as Liu Luoxi finished speaking, and no one gave instructions, a maid came up with a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and brought it respectfully in front of Liu Luoxi. When Liu Luoxi finished writing, the maid took the paper into the cabin, and after a while Backed out again.

Although it was summer outside, there was a charcoal fire in the cabin, and the charcoal was scorching hot, making the temperature of the cabin higher than the outside world.There was a person leaning on the soft couch in the middle, although he was wearing a man's gown, but his untied hair was hanging behind him, it was clearly a woman again.

"Take this piece of paper and come to the Liuyuan Pavilion of the Liu family to find me, and I will thank you." Liu Luoxi said.

"I will accept the gift from No. [-] Company in the World." She paused, "Are you going to Qingzhou? I can give you a ride."

"Is that so? That would be great."

Then the people in the cabin stopped talking, and Liu Luoxi didn't bother, just chatting with Qian Wu and Ning Ling.

Liu Luoxi asked them if they would like to sit at her house, Ning Ling nodded, anyway, she has nowhere to go now.

Qian Wu pursed his lips and said, "If there is food and drink to be served."

If it wasn't for Qian Wu's helping her just now, Liu Luoxi might not be able to resist hitting him on the head.

When they arrived at Qingzhou Ferry, Liu Luoxi and his party got off the boat, but the owner of the boat never showed up.

Liu Yuan Pavilion?The woman in the cabin looked at the willow character on the white paper with great interest, and remembered what Liu Luoxi said just now, "It's just robbing a girl, beating a bully, and tearing down the stage."

A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and the woman whispered softly, "It's just...he's such an interesting person..."

"My lord." The man who was setting up the board for Liu Luoxi just now stood outside the cabin, "The carriage is ready, we can go back home."

"En." The woman replied.
