Chapter 118 Confidants
Chen Shou began to start in the room, holding his chest with his left hand and pinching his chin with his right hand. He didn't know the passage of time at all...
First of all, Chen Shou is completely sure that Qiu Guo is a normal person. Although she is a little cold, she occasionally laughs under his affect. She even talks to the birds on the tree when there is no one. Such a person's self-abuse may be quite small.
Then, Chen Shou also ruled out the possibility that Qiuguo was practicing some kind of evil method, because those scars are simple scars, which will hinder the flow of blood, but do not stop the demonic power. The most important thing is that Qiuguo is obviously only the strength of the gas refining period, and there has been no change at all in the past six months.
It's not self-abuse, nor is it the practice of evil skills, and then it is a possible surname that Chen Shou is completely unwilling to accept: those scars are beaten every time she comes home!
At least more than 70% of it is likely to be like this! Her unconcealed faint bitterness was also explained by this.
In the past six months, she has actually lived a life of being whipped every three days? Looking at those whip marks, I just want her life! If it hadn't been for her gas refining period and a certain degree of resilience, I'm afraid she would have died long ago.
At that moment, Chen Shou suddenly had an impulse to hit the wall, because in half a year, when Qiu Guo was living a life of being beaten every three days, what was he doing? He didn't realize it at all. He enjoyed the fruits of autumn fruits and thought it was very warm!
Chen Shou became popular at once. He blamed himself and hated the culprit behind it!
Chen Shou clenched his fists and squeaked. He squeezed word by word from his mouth, "You'd better give me a reason not to kill you!"
Now he is afraid that Qiu Guo's injury is caused by a very special and strange situation, and it is even inevitable. For example, she is suffering from a hidden disease and must regularly rely on whipping to transfer the pain. In that case, his anger will become very funny.
Therefore, his top priority is to confirm the real cause of the whiplash on Qiu Guo's body, and then make a determination.
That night, Chen Shou couldn't sleep at all. He didn't sleep and meditated in ** until dawn.
The next morning, he saw Qiu Guo again. He tried so hard to hide his emotions, but Qiu Guo found something wrong.
"Lord Chen, are you not feeling well?" During the meal, Qiu Guo asked with concern.
After living together for more than half a year, Qiu Guo has almost regarded him as a family member. Under special circumstances, he will show his concern for him, just like now.
Chen Shou really wants to ask Qiu Guo directly, but with the surname of Qiu Guo, there will be no good result.
Trying to squeeze out a smile, Chen Shou shook his head and said, "It's okay. Maybe I'm too tired."
"Then I'll make soup at noon and send it to Lord Chen." Qiu Guo is still doing her part.
"No, thank you. By the way, do you have to go home tonight?
As soon as he heard the word "go home", Qiu Guo's concern for Chen Shou immediately went away. He nodded and pretended to be calm and said, "Hmm."
"Maybe I can come back earlier tonight. Can you wait for me to come back before leaving? I can see you off."
There was a trace of panic on Qiu Guo's face, but he immediately hid it and quickly said, "No. I'll cook and heat it up for you. You can just eat it when you come back. I'll clean up the dishes when I come back.
Qiu Guo has always been a very steady girl. At this time, the reaction fell into Chen Shou's eyes, which made Chen Shou more affirm his speculation.
"Well, you can go back early after you help me cook. You don't have to wait for me."
"Hmm."
After breakfast, Chen Shou frowned as soon as he went out, because he estimated that he would be busy until late at night tonight, but he didn't even know where Qiu Guo's home was. If he didn't follow her, how could he touch the door to find out this matter?
On the one hand, it is official business, and he can't get rid of it. The position of Xuanwuwei is actually the foundation of all the benefits he has received at present, even including living under the same roof with Qiuguo. On the other hand, it is the safety of Qiuguo, a relative. Why don't you find out and solve it as soon as possible? Is he still a man?
At this time, Chen Shou can't wait to be able to separate himself. One is in charge and the other is to check the matter of Qiuguo, but that kind of high-level magic power can't be mastered by him, a small Jindan monk...
Flying, Chen Shou couldn't help but be annoyed. In this Xuandu Zifu, a lieutenant has no confidant. He does the big things by himself, and the small things are directly to his confidant's subordinates. But he is good. Because he is an exceptional admission, there is no three-year buffer period at all. After coming, he has been improving his strength. So far, he doesn't even have a confidant! If so, like the current situation, you can at least share it with yourself, right?
"Damn it, up to now, it's not even as good as some examiners!" Chen Shou couldn't help complaining.
It is by no means aimless for him to complain like this. After being a trainer for more than a month, he has a general understanding of the situation of those examiners. Although those guys have to pass the assessment to become lieutenants, there are many princes and young masters in the gate valve. These people simply come with their servants and servants, and there are people who serve them in front of and behind everything!
"Well, I can't do it alone anymore. Just write a letter and ask the elder to send someone to me." Chen Shou soon had a calculation and whispered.
However, although there are many people in the Aoshan Gou Chen people, I'm afraid it will take at least three months to work back and forth. The distant water can't quench the thirst. His current problem can only be solved by one person...
Wait!
Are you really a helper?
Even if it was changed two days ago, Chen Shou may not be able to find someone, but since yesterday, there have actually been several potential candidates!
It was the eight people who came yesterday afternoon!
They are the people of the city who were temporarily recruited. They didn't even enter the threshold of Xuandu Zifu. Naturally, there was no faction. And they can't wait to find a full position in Xuandu Zifu. Even if they just run errands and watch the door and do rough work, they are grateful. They just worry that there is no way out! At this time, if he throws an olive branch at them, will they not swear allegiance to the death?
That's no different from stuffing a steamed bun into the hand of a beggar who is about to starve to death, and then saying, "Follow me, I'll introduce you to another job, no matter if you have to worry about food and clothing in the future", right?
Of course, the other party may also be a white-eyed wolf, but isn't there eight people? Chen Shou still has to choose! At present, he only needs to find the best character from those eight people.
Thinking of this, Chen Shou was finally a little excited. He felt that he still grasped the psychology of the eight young people. They are all longing for an opportunity, and he has such an opportunity in his hands! As a lieutenant, he has the power to recruit subordinates!
Every more day, Qiuguo will suffer one more day, so the faster you find your subordinates, the better, and then you can have to do it without delay!
During the day, in addition to working normally, Chen Shou also kept paying attention to the eight people. Since Lulu was the only one by his side, the most observed was naturally Lulu.
He asked casually and set up the details of the teenager. On the seventeenth of this year, his parents opened a small shop in the city, all of which were the incarnations of demons called Tugui demons who are good at eskin. Although he is only 17 years old, Lu Luo is already in the realm of five layers of the gas refining period, and he has little talent in practice. In addition to her parents, there is also a little girl in the family. She is ten years old this year, which is the time of innocence.
Lu Luo's eyebrows are clear and beautiful, and he learns quickly when working. He is very respectful to Chen Shou in his words and deeds, and he is really popular. The most rare thing is that he has always been neither humble nor arrogant when dealing with the people in the city.
Naturally, everyone will try their best to behave better at this time. What Chen Shou saw may not be their real name, but a small detail in the afternoon made Chen Shou completely recognize Lu Luo.
That detail is really a "fine" section. At that time, Chen Shou and Lu Luo were in the room. Chen Shou was checking the account book with his back to Lu Luo, at least on the surface he had no time to look at Lu Luo.
Lu Luo held a roll of bamboo mat and piled up the sundries by the wall, but the mat accidentally rolled down. Fortunately, Lu Luo was quick-eyed and squeezed the half-expanded mat on the pile with his body.
Next, it is said that Lu Luo rolled up the mat and put it back carefully, but because the mat was already half unfolded, Lu Luo could naturally see the situation on the mat. Maybe he glanced at it completely unconsciously, but let him see that a bamboo shoot on the bamboo mat was really a bamboo shoot, and a few fine thorns were separated. The bamboo shoots are already very thin, and the thorns are naturally thinner, almost soft, and it doesn't hurt at all, but Lu Luo still stretched out his hand and carefully removed it. It's not over yet. Lu Luo simply unfolded the mat completely and examined it carefully before putting it back. Finally, he smiled contentedly.
It was this smile that made Chen Shou give up his plan to find someone else and decided to choose Lu Luo. This teenager is really a simple person with good intentions. It's hard to say what he will do when he grows up, but Chen Shou is fully confident in taking this teenager in a good direction.
It's just that what will be handed over to this teenager is really not simple, but a little gloomy...
