Half a month had passed since the earth wall cave carving incident. Ping An stood in front of his little master and reported the news he had learned in detail.
"The second son of the Qi family left Pucheng five days ago. It is said that he went out with an elder for business training. People outside said that he was hiding from disaster. In fact, the government has already made a conclusion on this. It was an accident and no one was here.
Being convicted in this incident, there is no theory of escape.
The Qi family gave generous gifts to the families who were killed and injured, saying they were apologizing, but this was a private matter, not official, and it did not count as compensation.
I think Qi Er will probably stay outside for a long time, and there is no hope for the inheritance within the family. If he goes out, he will probably be out of sight and out of mind, right? It will be good for both others and himself!"
Lou Xiaoyi nodded. This was expected. To put it simply, he just couldn't face it. This is the real world, not the killing and killing in biographical novels. It's the same as killing a dog... Death is a big deal in this world.
In this peaceful town, even children from rich families cannot bear such pressure.
"The same is true for Fatty Qian. He left earlier, and the specific destination is ominous... The other monkeys are still recovering from their injuries. I heard Jia Langzhong said that because there has been no bone correction for too long, I am afraid that he will become disabled and will be unable to leave the wheelchair for the rest of his life.
...The youngest Han suffered internal injuries. He is lucky to be able to be rescued, but it will be difficult for future generations to inherit..."
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. It was the end of a farce. He did not expect to pay such a heavy price and fundamentally change the lives of several families. Among the Xiao Qixia, he was the luckiest. No wonder his mother would treasure his father.
Although she didn't say anything about taking out her belongings, she must have been frightened by the cruelty. As long as she could tie Lou Xiaoyi up, there was nothing she wouldn't take out.
Regarding the medical skills in this world, they are at the level of the normal mortal world; don’t expect that a Taoist’s elixir can bring you back to life, regenerate broken limbs, or a magic power can heal internal injuries without leaving any future troubles!
Maybe a capable Qigong practitioner can actually do it, but the premise is that you must first find such a capable person, and secondly, the capable person must have a focus on elixir cultivation. Finally, why should they help you?
Ingenuity is already rare, so who would be willing to spend their precious cultivation just to treat a mortal? I am practicing Taoism, not medicine!
This also made Lou Xiaoyi understand that in the initial stage of breathlessness, there is no big difference between so-called practitioners and ordinary people. They will die and get hurt if they fall from a high place!
Because of the limitations of the weapon-raising method, their own cultivation strength will not play a big role in the treatment, unless they can obtain other spiritual objects.
Perhaps it was precisely because they were cultivators after all that they fell from a height of more than ten feet, so two of them lost their lives? If they were ordinary people, it would be good if one or two of them survived.
"Li Sanlang has been staying at home and has never come out. I don't know whether he was frightened or was restrained..."
Lou Xiaoyi sighed, "Isn't there a lot of money from the old lady?"
Ping An lowered his head and replied: "Yes, although my Lou family is not yet rich among these families, the funeral ceremony for my wife was generous. In addition, through the relationship between the state and the county, I also hired the best for the monkeys and others.
Doctor, specifically, Aunt Caihuan is in charge of it, I can't tell."
Lou Xiaoyi remembered something again, "Do you know what Aunt Caihuan is busy with recently?"
Ping An shook his head and said, "I don't know! How can our servants dare to ask about the master's affairs?"
Lou Xiaoyi laughed and scolded, "You cunning guy, there is something else in the Lou family that you don't know about? Are you trying to deceive me, a young man who is ignorant and ignorant?"
Ping An, let me tell you, this matter is related to my happiness for the rest of my life, young master, so I can't be careless. You should keep an eye on me. Which girl is she from? What is her personality, temperament, appearance and conversation? I've found out clearly. Give me a quick report!"
Ping An hesitated, and Lou Xiaoyi was so angry that he wanted to kick him. Thinking about it, he had no choice but to make it difficult for these servants. This secret is not easy to tell.
"Okay, pack up, I'll go to the city to buy some things!"
Ping An was very embarrassed, "Master, isn't this bad? It's not appropriate for you to go out now!"
Lou Xiaoyi glared, "I'm not going out of the city, I'm just going for a walk on the street, and that's not okay? My mother didn't even restrain me, but you are really tight!"
Lou Xiaoyi wanders around the streets and alleys of Pucheng. Although his reputation in Pucheng has greatly improved now compared with a few months ago, people only hear the name of the little Xianggong of Lou Mansion, but few people can be sure of it. This reputation and face go hand in hand.
The power of a brick in Xiaoye Lake and the death and injury incident in the cave have not brought him a good reputation, and he is rapidly sliding into the abyss of dandyism.
He doesn't care because he enjoys the fame.
Double standards exist everywhere. People are accustomed to using the standards of saints to demand saints, using the standards of madmen to demand lunatics, and using the standards of villains to demand villains.
Whatever label you put on yourself, people will use it to set expectations for your words and actions.
A good student will be scolded by the teacher if he fails to make sense in an article. A bad student will be praised by the teacher if he submits an article on time within a year.
People who talk about benevolence, justice and morality all day long will be criticized if they do something inconsistent with their words and deeds. To put it bluntly, it is natural for you to be a gangster and act like a gangster. However, if you have thick eyebrows and big eyes, let alone acting like a gangster, even if you show a little bit of gangster temperament, it will not be accepted.
This is the only benefit of Lou Xiaoyi being a diaosi in his previous life. At least he lived a relaxed and happy life mentally. When he came to this world, he certainly didn’t want to let Lou’s reputation make his own reputation. He had to carry the shackles of his moral ability. It was good to be a dandy. , it’s just that it’s hard to get through with my mother.
Arriving in front of a grocery store, Lou Xiaoyi jumped off his horse and ordered: "Ping An is waiting outside."
Ping An felt that the young husband was a bit mysterious, but his responsibility was to keep the young husband out of his sight. The grocery store was not big and he could see through it at a glance from outside, so he had nothing to fear.
You have to be discerning in serving the master. You have to listen to the old lady, but you can't go against the little master. After all, the little master is the future. Whether he can make a living in this comfortable life until he is old, the further he goes, the more he depends on the little master's nod. .
Lou Xiaoyi walked into the store with a smile on his face. The shopkeeper was stunned when he saw him coming in. He looked familiar. After thinking about it, he had an impression. After thinking about it again, his head was a little big. He was very confused when he bought those things. Knowing the purpose of those things, combined with the recent uproar of the earth cliff cave carving incident, it is self-evident who the young master in front of me is.
Lou Xiaoyi slowly walked up to him, "You prepared the things for me when I went to the cave to carve last time!"
The shopkeeper was sweating. Two of the eight young masters of Pucheng's big family were dead and two were lying in bed. This matter is not a big deal. The big families can't accuse each other, but if people Knowing that it was the adventurous tool prepared by him, how could his small shop withstand the anger of those big families? With just a few clicks of his fingers, his small shop could be so crowded that it could no longer survive!
"Mr. Lou, I am willing to return your goods, no, double the amount!"
The shopkeeper has a very clear mind. If things can be solved with money, don't be stingy.
Lou Xiaoyi smiled and shook his head, "Who cares about that little money anymore? Besides, the business is fair, since when did my Lou family stop paying for forced purchases and sales?
What I want to say is, there may be something wrong with what you prepared for me, right? If it weren’t for you taking advantage of it, maybe one more of my companions would have survived!"
