Taking Advantage of Others [Rebirth]
Chapter 7
Shen Ruiwen looked at the back of the man who turned to ask other people, frowned slightly, and said, "It doesn't look like the clothes of the Central Plains, maybe it's a visitor from outside the customs."
Looking at his clothes, Ling Zichu seemed to be very interested, and said, "What do you know!"
Shen Ruiwen: "Huh? But this is indeed a dress outside the customs..."
"This man has an extraordinary aura at first glance. Yushu Linfeng has an extraordinary aura all over his body!" Ling Zichu shook his fan and pointed at the man, "When I saw him, two words immediately came to my mind."
Shen Ruiwen looked blank: "What?"
Ling Zichu: "Big family."
Shen Ruiwen: "..."
Ling Zichu: "There are six more words."
Shen Ruiwen: "What do you want to say..."
Ling Zichu shook his fan and said, "People are stupid, they have a lot of money, and they are easy to deceive."
After finishing speaking, he closed the fan in his hand, straightened his clothes, put on a hypocritical smile of a standard profiteer, and walked towards the person head-on.
"Brother, please stay!" He said loudly, "You won't find anyone like this."
The man stopped and looked back at him.
Ling Zichu bowed his hands to him, and said with a smile: "My surname is Ling, I don't know what to call this brother?"
The man looked at him coldly, and it took him a while to respond, "Jiang Yan."
"Brother Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you." Ling Zichu immediately changed his words, "It's not easy for you to find someone like this, you are looking for a needle in a haystack!"
Jiang Yan didn't understand what he wanted to do, but just watched with a frown, waiting for him to continue.
"Brother Jiang, I have an idea." Ling Zichu said, "With a lot of money, there must be a brave man. As long as you set a reward, someone will naturally send you the clues of this person."
Jiang Yan suddenly realized that what Ling Zichu said was very reasonable.
Ling Zichu was still rambling on: "This amount should not be too much, nor too little—"
Jiang Yan: "Twelve taels of gold."
Ling Zichu: "..."
Jiang Yan: "If someone can provide information about this person, Jiang will definitely give him twelve taels of gold."
Ling Zichu took a deep breath.
"Brother Jiang, I'm telling you the truth." Ling Zichu grabbed Jiang Yan's hand and said tremblingly, "I just met the person you're looking for."
……
Shen Ruiwen was dumbfounded.
They still don't know whether Jiang Yan is an enemy or a friend, and Ling Zichu is about to sell Yue Xiao's news.What if this person wants to kill Yue Xiao?Shouldn't they stop Ling Zichu?
Shen Qingyu was also surprised.
In his last life, he had never hung out with Ling Zichu today, so naturally he had never seen Jiang Yan, but it was too late to stop Ling Zichu, so he could only watch Ling Zichu reveal Yue Xiao's whereabouts to Jiang Yan.
Ling Zichu pointed in a completely opposite direction.
"I saw that person go there with my own eyes." He said with conviction, and then extended his hand to Jiang to ask for a reward, and with a smile on his face, he said, "Brother Jiang, you are greedy for money."
Jiang Yan felt that something was wrong, but he was in a hurry to find someone, so he didn't think about it, he took the money from his arms and threw it to Ling Zichu, then turned his head and left in a hurry.
Ling Zichu turned over the money in Dian's hand, the amount seemed to be more than what Jiang Yan had just said, he smiled happily, turned his head to see Shen Ruiwen dumbfounded, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly pulled the two of them to escape from here.
Shen Ruiwen was still dazed, and asked, "Doctor Ling, the direction you pointed him in..."
"It's my master that Yue Xiao wants to save, how could I betray him for money!" Ling Zichu also spoke with confidence, "It's just that the man surnamed Jiang doesn't seem to be weak in martial arts, it's better for us to leave here first."
Shen Ruiwen: "..."
He said it nicely, but isn't this just cheating money and running away?
Anyway, he is also a well-known genius doctor in the world. Why is he so greedy for money, and he has no demeanor of hanging the pot to help the world at all.
Ling Zichu dragged the two of them to escape, bypassed the street, and found a tea shop to sit down. Then he felt relieved, heaved a sigh of relief, ordered a pot of tea, and said with a smile: "I heard that the tea here is very delicious. good."
Shen Ruiwen was still brooding over what happened just now: "You just..."
Ling Zichu smiled slightly and said, "There is no need to mention the past."
Shen Ruiwen: "..."
So Shen Ruiwen kept silent, and Shen Qingyu was still worried about Yue Xiao's safety at this time, so he never opened his mouth. He still had a bottom line in his heart, but now a Jiang Yan who didn't know whether he was an enemy or a friend suddenly appeared, which made him feel at ease. All disappeared, and worried again.
They sat quietly for a while, Ling Zichu stroked the teacup, and his eyes wandered to Shen Qingyu several times. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start. In addition to collecting gold and silver, you also need to find out what happened."
Shen Ruiwen felt strange: "It's a strange disease, where's the reason?"
"Everything happens for a reason." Ling Zichu bit the bullet and asked, "I heard that the two of you are not the same mother?"
He asked very presumptuously, Shen Qingyu's illness has nothing to do with his life experience, but Shen Qingyu didn't mind, or he knew that Ling Zichu would talk about it, so he just put down the teacup in his hand Yes, said: "Yes."
Ling Zichu hesitated and asked again: "Is Lingtang Yao Xia?"
"My mother's surname is Lou." Shen Qingyu paused, and then said, "I am not a descendant."
Back then, Shen Qi married the heroine Yao Lianqing, which was also a good story in the world, but within three or two years, it was rumored in the world that Shen Qi took a concubine, married a graceful beauty, and entered the Shen family with a pregnant woman. People scolded him for being flirtatious, and pitied Yao Lianqing for him to seal the sword and go back to seclusion.
"My surname is Lou, her surname is Lou..." Ling Zichu murmured several times, his tone trembling slightly, and after a while he raised his head and asked, "Is Mrs. Lou okay now?"
After saying this, he himself felt a little stupid. The Shen family was in such a catastrophe. Except for Shen Qingyu and Shen Ruiwen, how could anyone escape?
"My mother died of illness when I was young." Shen Qingyu knew what Ling Zichu wanted to ask, so he took the initiative to say softly, "I grew up with my wife, and she and my father treated me very well."
In fact, how the whole Shen family treats him can be seen from Shen Ruiwen's attitude.Shen Qingyu didn't lie, Shen Ruiwen regarded him as a brother, and Shen's father loved him even more. Even Mrs. Shen was just a little colder towards his mother and son, and never bullied them.
Shen Ruiwen couldn't help frowning, he didn't like Ling Zichu's question, but he didn't interrupt the conversation between the two of them, he just turned his eyes away and watched the pedestrians outside the tea shop, as if he had never heard them speak.
Ling Zichu poured himself a cup of tea with trembling hands, splashed a lot of tea outside, he raised his sleeves to wipe it without thinking, the fine satin was soaked in tea stains, stained mottled, the clothes were ruined Only then did he come back to his senses, and replied with a slightly hoarse voice: "That's fine."
Shen Qingyu didn't say a word, just looked at him with a frown, Ling Zichu had already lowered his head, he only vaguely caught a glimpse of a little redness in Ling Zichu's eyes, but after a moment of sadness, Ling Zichu shook his fan again, and returned to his previous appearance of a philistine profiteer, Knock on the table, smile at the two of them, and say: "Today, the heavens have a windfall, and this table of tea is invited by Ling."
Shen Qingyu also deliberately changed the topic, and looked out with his chin propped up, and said softly: "It's been so long, he should come back."
Shen Ruiwen muttered and scolded: "Qing Yu, don't care about that villain who takes advantage of others' danger."
Ling Zichu already understood, looked at Shen Qingyu with a smile, and said, "You don't have to worry, it's just saving someone, it's not a difficult task for him."
Shen Ruiwen raised his eyebrows, he was always puzzled, it can be seen that Yue Xiao agreed lightly, so he never asked, now he finally stopped scolding Yue Xiao in a weird way, but couldn't help but said: "It's not difficult to save people. But the lock of the dungeon..."
Many years ago, he had heard from Shen Qi that the martial arts righteousness had detained Meng Jing, the genius doctor of the Demon Cult, outside Tairu City, and sent people to guard him day and night. to prevent him from escaping.
The key to the lock was divided into several people, and some of them were not even in Tairu City. He didn't understand how Yue Xiao would break the lock. Even if he had to use brute force to cut off the chain, Yue Xiao's two knives would barely break. There is no rust, how can the lock be broken.
"You underestimated him." Ling Zichu said, "If I knew how to use swords and saved people this time, I would never ask him to pick any herbs. I would want his two knives."
Shen Ruiwen was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Then is it still some magic weapon?"
He couldn't help thinking about the appearance of Yue Xiao's two knives. The two knives were old in shape, and the scabbards were still wrapped in rags. They looked dusty, and they really didn't look like good things.
Even Shen Qingyu couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
No one had ever talked to him about Yue Xiao's saber in his last life, so he naturally didn't know what mystery there was. Now that Ling Zichu had said so, he asked curiously, "Do you know what kind of saber Yue Xiao used?"
"I only know that it is a good thing, but what is the name of this knife, you have to ask him." Ling Zichu said, "I just guess that he made the knife so broken, maybe to hide his own identity."
Shen Qingyu didn't ask any more questions.
Yue Xiao's identity has always been a mystery in the world.
With such a high skill, he should be a master, but none of the sects that use knives in the world has Yue Xiao, and Shen Qingyu can only infer from the details when he first met Yue Xiao. some clues.At that time, Yue Xiao had just appeared in the rivers and lakes not long ago, and he spoke with the accent of the north of Yanjing. Now that he has been in the Central Plains rivers and lakes for a long time, his tone of voice has gradually become similar to theirs, but Shen Qingyu knew that Yue Xiao should be from the north. visitors.And not long ago, Yue Xiao said that he wanted him to go out of the pass to avoid being chased and killed. Yue Xiao used the word "go back" at that time. From this, it can be inferred that Yue Xiao may still be outside the pass.
The Jianghu in the Central Plains does not have much contact with those outside the customs and the Western Regions. What kind of sects are there in these places? How many high-level chivalrous men are there? , it makes sense.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingyu couldn't help but frowned again.
Yue Xiao is from outside the Guan, and the swordsman who was looking for Yue Xiao all over the street today is also from outside the Guan, the two of them must know each other.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Ling Zichu leaned out to look at the sun. They had been out for a long time, and it was getting late. He called the shop assistant to pay the bill and was going back to the inn first.
When they returned to the inn, Ling Zichu led the two of them outside the door, and heard some small noises in the room, like someone talking in a dream, the voice was a little hoarse, but it was all too familiar to him.
Ling Zichu pressed his hand on the door, and vaguely noticed that his heart was beating faster.
Yue Xiao is back.
He brought people back.
Ling Zichu pushed open the door heavily, the bed curtain in the room was drooping, Yue Xiao was pouring water for someone at the table, slightly raised his eyebrows to look at Ling Zichu, and said lightly: "The person has been rescued, Doctor Ling, it's your turn to perform the contract."
Looking at his clothes, Ling Zichu seemed to be very interested, and said, "What do you know!"
Shen Ruiwen: "Huh? But this is indeed a dress outside the customs..."
"This man has an extraordinary aura at first glance. Yushu Linfeng has an extraordinary aura all over his body!" Ling Zichu shook his fan and pointed at the man, "When I saw him, two words immediately came to my mind."

"Brother Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you." Ling Zichu immediately changed his words, "It's not easy for you to find someone like this, you are looking for a needle in a haystack!"
Jiang Yan didn't understand what he wanted to do, but just watched with a frown, waiting for him to continue.
"Brother Jiang, I have an idea." Ling Zichu said, "With a lot of money, there must be a brave man. As long as you set a reward, someone will naturally send you the clues of this person."
