Chapter 53:
After dinner, the lights were turned on in the house.
Ah Ting should have got Lu Shi's suggestion. As soon as it got dark, he was no longer bored with Sister-in-law, and walked away with a smile.
Li Mu sent Luoshen back to the room. Before entering, someone stopped outside the threshold and said, "Ami, I have something to do. It's very important. I have to go out. You can rest early."
Luo Shen was stunned, a ray of disappointment poured out of his heart, but he nodded his face.
Li Mu smiled apologetically at her and turned away.
Luo Shen was very unhappy, but in front of Aju and the maids, he didn't want to express his feelings, as if nothing had happened. When taking a bath, I didn't want Aju to be in front of me, so I told her to go out, tucked her knees and sat in the tub, resting her head on the wall of the tub, closing her eyes and meditating.
The dense hot mist rising from the bathtub slowly condensed in the air, turning into tiny crystal water droplets, sticking on her eyebrows.
Luoshen leaned against her like this, motionless, as if she had fallen asleep, but she was thinking about the troubles that had been lingering in her heart for the past few days.
During the past few days on the road, Li Mu shared the cabin with her and slept in the same bed.
He was kind and considerate to her. It has always been so.
But never touched her.
I didn't even touch my fingers.
Every morning, without exception, when she woke up, he didn't know when to get up. The side of the bed was empty, and she was the only one left on the bed.
They are supposed to be a couple. Except at the beginning, she refused him to approach. Recently, although she did not take the initiative to express in front of him, at least her attitude was meek.
Luoshen even thought that she would allow him to sleep in the same bed as herself, in case...
In case he really can't bear it anymore and wants to make out with himself and do what a husband does to his wife, although he is a little scared, she will accept it.
But he didn't.
He doesn't seem to have any interest in himself that he wants to touch.
Since he was not interested in himself, and he did not seem to be trying to cling to the Gao family, why did he have to tear up her marriage with Lu Jianzhi and forcibly marry him?
Luoshen was confused. Thinking of his promise to Lu Shi just now when he was eating, he turned his head and left her to go out by himself, feeling even more depressed.
A pair of long eyelashes stained with water beads trembled slightly. She opened her wet eyes, stood up slowly from the bath, lowered her head, and, for the first time in her life, carefully inspected her body.
The girl's skin, which can be broken by blowing a bullet, after soaking in hot water, a touch of pink is revealed in the white, so fresh and tender that water can come out with a pinch.
Beneath the slender willow waist, the legs out of the water stood together, white and straight.
Luoshen touched it himself, and the skin that was stained with crystal water beads was like a newly peeled egg, slippery and not lost.
Her gaze finally settled on her chest.
All over the body, the only thing that feels unsatisfactory is about here...
I heard that men like plumpness?
Luoshen remembered that in the past, there was a new servant girl in the kitchen. She was born with only ordinary appearance, and she was better than white skin and chest. She came in and out every day, which was quite eye-catching. It is said that the male servants in the family were vying to flatter her, but in the end, the two of them were jealous and broke each other's heads. When Aju found out, they all resigned, and the family returned to peace.
Luoshen lowered his head and looked at his small breasts, which he had raised for sixteen years, white and tender, with a delicate grip.
Before that, she had never felt bad.
But now, she suddenly became suspicious.
Is it in Li Mu's eyes that he is completely unattractive to him?
She couldn't help raising her hand, wanting to try it out, how does it feel to touch...
"Little lady, are you all right? I'm in!"
Suddenly, A Ju's voice came from outside. I think I didn't hear her movement for a long time, and I felt a little worried.
The sound of her footsteps followed the words, dong dong dong.
Luo Shen was taken aback, and hurriedly lowered his hands, wanting to sit back in the water, not wanting to slip on his feet and unable to stand firm, the whole person fell down and sat down. one slice.
Ah Ju came in, and upon seeing this, with an ouch, she hurried forward and grabbed Luoshen's arm.
"But it hurts when I fall? What happened? Just now I had to drive me out, but now I get up and don't call me..."
Luoshen sat in the water, frowned, and covered his right ankle: "It hurts a little here..."
…
Li Mu arrived at the Jingkou government office, dismounted, and went straight in.
Jingkou Ling and Jiang Tao were waiting inside, and hurriedly greeted him when they heard him coming.
Jingkou ordered Li Mu to come to the seat and said respectfully, "The Governor is returning with his family today, so he shouldn't have disturbed it, but the matter is a little important, and the subordinate can't make up his own mind, so I invited him overnight. I hope the Governor will forgive me."
Li Mudao doesn't matter, it's called talking about things.
It turned out that after Li Mu had previously left, the Jingkou Ling did what he wanted and restricted the activities of Tianshijiao in the Jingkou area. A few days ago, in the name of strengthening the body, those people gathered in a remote place in the middle of the night to teach the so-called Yin-Yang Great Harmony. Jiang Tao sent people to pretend to be believers to infiltrate and observe, and found that in addition to preaching the teachings, there were actually scenes of men and women covering their heads with scarves and **** in public. The method of Great Harmony has attracted countless people from all over the world.
Because the location of the event was not under the jurisdiction of Jingkou, the Jingkou order had passed the local government office, and the matter could only be abandoned.
Unexpectedly, recently, people from the countryside in Jingkou came to the government office to file complaints, saying that their wife and daughter had been missing for many days. Jiang Tao then led people around to investigate. That night, he took the bitter master to sneak into the activity place of Tianshijiao. The bitter master happened to recognize one of the women, who looked like his wife, and made a scene on the spot. Because there were thousands of people at the time, the scene was extremely chaotic, and everyone scattered in a hurry, and the few women were not brought back, but were swept away by the disciples of Tianshijiao.
Jiang Tao said: "My commander and I deduced that the so-called goddesses who covered their heads and faces were probably the village women who reported the officer's disappearance. But no one could be found. The other party insisted that the goddesses were all female disciples of the sect who were willing to dedicate themselves to the Dharma. It was expected that they had private nests in addition to the incense altar. However, there was no evidence. I have connections, and those people incited the followers to make troubles, for fear of causing civil unrest, so I had to give up at that time. But because the disappearance of a woman was involved, it was not a trivial matter, so I invited you to discuss it overnight. What do you think should be done?"
Li Mu frowned: "These monsters are all dead. I know this matter, I will deal with it, and when I get the evidence, I will expel all these monsters, and none of them are allowed to stay in Jingkou!"
When Jingkouling encountered such a thing, he was at a loss. Hearing Li Mu's statement, Fang heaved a sigh of relief and thanked him.
After the matter was over, Li Mu and Jiang Tao came out and agreed to call Qi Guozhan, Sun Fangzhi and Dai Yuan tomorrow, bid each other farewell, and go back separately.
…
Luo Shen accidentally twisted his right ankle.
Fortunately, the bones should not have been injured, but the tendons have been twisted.
Luoshen told Aju not to disturb Lu Shi.
Aju took the usual bruise medicine, put medicine on Luoshen's ankle, and gently rubbed it, complaining that she should not listen to her and go out.
No, as soon as she left, the little lady fell down like a child.
The ankle was aching, Aju muttered in her ear, Luoshen was upset, closed her eyes and said she was going to sleep.
Aju covered her with the quilt, put down the curtain, and went out with the maid.
Luo Shen is lying in bed alone, how can he fall asleep? Rolling back and forth, rolling all the way to Hai Shizhong, it was so late that I finally heard a softer voice from outside.
Li Mu finally came back, Aju was outside the door, and seemed to be talking to him about the accidental fall and twisted ankle while taking a bath.
Soon, the door was pushed open and Li Mu came in.
Luo Shen heard that he was walking towards the bed, and was lying face inward as usual, motionless.
While the curtain was hooked up, he seemed to be sitting on the edge of the bed at her feet. Then, a hand reached out, lightly held her poor ankle, and took out the quilt.
Luoshen pretended to be just woken up by him, rubbed his eyes a few times, and turned his face away.
He looked up at her.
"Is it still very painful? How can it happen that if you are so careless, you will slip and fall in the water when you take a shower?"
Luoshen felt guilty, slowly got up, sat on the quilt, lowered his eyes and said, "I don't know why, my foot slipped and I fell. It doesn't hurt anymore."
Li Mu no longer opened his mouth, only looked at the sole of the foot resting in the palm of his hand. She hissed softly, put it down, went out, came back after a while, took a bottle of what looked like an ointment in her hand, sat back and said, "I twisted my tendons, but it's not a big problem, I took the medicine and pushed it every day. Pinch, don't walk on the ground, rest for a few days and you'll be fine."
He dosed her, then kneaded her ankles.
His technique could make her feel the finger force exerted on her, but it was not painful, and it was very comfortable.
She sat on her knees, letting him squeeze her feet.
It seemed that the tent suddenly became quiet, so quiet that Luoshen could hear his breathing.
She couldn't help but quietly raised her eyes and looked at him. Seeing that he kept bowing his head, his eyes were always on her feet, her expression was focused, she continued to rub her for a while, released her hand, raised her eyes and asked, "Is it better? ?"
Luo Shen retracted his gaze and nodded.
He smiled and stuffed the fleshy little foot in his palm back into the quilt, then stood up and entered the bathroom.
After coming out, he turned off the lights and lay beside her.
Luo Shen saw that he was as motionless as before, and he was about to fall asleep again, but he couldn't help it: "Where did you go tonight?"
She paused, her tone getting more serious.
"It's not that I want to know. It's just that if Ajia knows you've gone out, if you ask tomorrow, I can answer her."
"Go to the Beijing Password Office."
Li Mu turned to her and explained his whereabouts.
In front of her, of course, there was no mention of the filthy deeds that the celestial teachers used to deceive people. They only said that those people did evil things and endangered the village.
Luo Shen heard that he really had something important, and the sullenness in his heart was slightly relieved.
When he was silent, in the dark, I heard him say softly: "You must have been tired from walking in the past few days. It's getting late, so go to sleep."
He said so, what else could Luo Shen do?
I had to obediently sigh and close my eyes.
Li Mu also closed his eyes and did not move.
After a long time, I heard the sound of her even and thin breathing finally coming from her ear, knowing that she should have fallen asleep.
He subconsciously squeezed his hand that had held the sole of her foot, turned his face slowly, looked at the silhouette of the sleeping girl beside him in the dark, and exhaled slowly.
Seeing her innocent and ignorant appearance, Li Mu really couldn't imagine the scene when he attacked her.
In case she resists...
He didn't think about it anymore, and hurriedly expelled the scene in his mind.
It's just that, sleeping in the same bed with her again, every night is within reach. If the next thing happened in my sleep that morning, would I still be able to control it?
At this moment, he suddenly became uncertain.
…
From the next day, Li Mu naturally went out early and returned late again. Luoshen's twisted foot became more and more swollen today, and he couldn't move around, so he had to stay indoors.
Fortunately, A stop came to accompany her. Or move a spinning machine, humming spinning, or do needlework together, or Luoshen teaches her to write and play flute.
Ah Ting has learned some characters with Lu Shi before. Although people seem to be carefree on weekdays, they are very smart, have good memory, and are very easy to learn. After a few days of learning, they will start to understand the rhyme and rhyme book. Luo Shen was very happy when she learned to write poetry, and she learned well, so she taught her to play flute.
Luoshen has been learning rhythm since he was a child, playing the qin and blowing the flute.
She is especially good at blowjob.
I remember that at the age of fourteen, she was sitting under a peach blossom tree upstream of the stream, and Lu Jianzhi was at the downstream stream. When she heard her playing the famous song "Dongfeng Yin" at that time, she took the piano and complied with it. .
One flute and one qin, the sound of jade is exquisite, and there is only one ensemble.
It was also after that time that the reputation of Gao's girl and Lu Jiajian's natural beauty was spread, and no one knew about Quan Jiankang.
But now, those are all in the past.
Luoshen has not been in the mood for a **** for a long time.
She naturally carried a jade flute by her side. That afternoon, on a whim, I asked someone to bring it and play a tune, but Ah Ting was so fascinated by it that he shouted that he had to learn it too.
Luoshen had nothing to do anyway, so he patiently taught her, so one teaching, one learning, time passed quickly.
The end of the year was like this, with the untuned Uriura's flute that A Ting made every day before dawn, passed quietly and happily.
It was only a few days after the first lunar month when Luoshen, who was still raising his feet, heard news.
Li Mu found a private cave hidden in the mountains by Tianshijiao. There, not only a staggering amount of money and food were hoarded, all from the donations of believers, but there were also hundreds of instruments strictly prohibited by the imperial court.
That's all, there, as expected, several women who had been reported missing by the villagers were found. After the women were rescued and brought back, the women fell asleep with their heads covered and unconscious. When they woke up the next day, after inquiries, all of them were at a loss as to what they had experienced. , then went to the incense altar to collect it, was led into the apse at that time, drank a cup of the talisman water given, and then I can't remember anything. After knowing the truth, the weak cry and rob the ground, shouting that they will not live, and the violent violent, with a kitchen knife, will go to work with the people taught by the heavenly teacher, not to mention the woman's family.
On the same day, all the villagers from the nearby villages rushed out, all of them holding poles and hoes, and rushed to the incense altar taught by Tianshi.
In a fit of anger, he smashed the contents into a smash, and he was still angry, and set a fire to burn the incense altar.
Jingkou Ling took the opportunity to order to expel Tianshijiao from the locality, leaving none of them.
Most of the people in Jingkou are from the north, with rough and arrogant temperaments. There are not many people who believe in the teachings of Heavenly Teachers. Among those believers, except for a few backbones and die-hards, the rest are called believers. Now that such a major incident has occurred, which has caused public anger, and the government has publicly expelled it, who would really follow the female Celestial Master to the end? They all quit teaching.
In just a few days, the originally powerful Celestial Masters disappeared in the Jingkou area.
Amid the scolding of the people who beat the stagnant dogs, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month came as scheduled.
On this day, every household in the south is busy cooking porridge in the morning to worship the silkworm god, and in the evening carrying a dummy to the hut or pigsty to welcome Zigu who has magical powers.
In addition, the customs that were originally only in the north are now gradually moving south. Jiankang and many prosperous southern cities, on the night of the full moon on the fifteenth day of the first month, the city is full of candles and drums.
Jingkou and Jiangbei are only separated by water, and most of the people come from the north. On the fifteenth night, it is natural to celebrate. People carried all kinds of lanterns made by themselves, and helped the old and the young to go out to play in the streets, advocating excellent acrobatics, among them.
The area around the Chenghuang Temple in the east of the city was brightly lit, and the people filled the streets, making it extremely lively.
Luoshen's twisted foot has long since recovered and can walk freely.
Tonight on Lantern Festival, Ah Ting is someone who likes to join in the fun, how could he stay at home honestly. It was only in the morning, so I brought up a rabbit lamp I made and urged Luoshen to go out on the street at night.
Luoshen himself was only half an adult. He had been bored at home for so long a few days ago. Except for sleeping at night, Li Mu had never stayed in front of her at all. After being slapped by Ah Ting, he couldn't help but be moved.
Lu Shi spoke at the right time and asked his son to take Luoshen and Amei out for a walk, and Li Mu agreed.
Luoshen couldn't help but jump for joy, and he was almost the same as Ah Ting. He only hoped that the sky would get dark earlier. When she was finally able to go out, she told Aju and Qiongshu not to follow, just go out and play at will. He changed into an ordinary dress, dressed like a gentle bride from a small family, was held by A Ting, and the two went out together.
Li Mu is also dressed in regular clothes. The only difference from ordinary people is that there is a long sword hanging from his waist.
He followed behind the two of her, walking all the way without saying a word, only answering a sentence or two when Ah Ting turned around and asked him something.
Luoshen and A Ting came to Chenghuang, where it was very lively. Looking around, Ah Ting was attracted by a stall selling animal noodles and stopped.
Luo Shen watched it for a while and found it interesting.
The stall owner was a little offspring. When he saw a very beautiful little woman coming to the stall, she looked dressed and dressed as if from a small family. At first, he didn't recognize who it was. Unable to move her eyes, she suddenly saw her stretch out a small white and tender hand, pointed at two masks and said that she wanted to buy them. She came back to her senses, hurriedly held them, and said with a blushing face, "I made them all by myself, and they are not worth the money. If the little lady likes it, it's okay to send you two."
Ah Ting was overjoyed, nodded hurriedly, and reached out to pick it up, but was stopped by a hand reaching out from behind.
When he turned around, seeing that his brother had already handed over the money, he said to the young man, "Is this money enough?"
There are only a few people who have seen Luoshen Mian in the local area, but Li Mu is not known to everyone, and the next generation suddenly saw him appear, and then he reacted.
It turned out that this beautiful little lady was the Gao girl who was rumored to have married him.
Where did the young man dare to look at Luoshen again, hurriedly took the money, and muttered: "Enough, enough..."
Li Mu smiled lightly, took the animal face, and handed it to Luoshen.
Ah Ting was distressed about money, so he leaned into Luoshen's ear and muttered, complaining that Brother A was wasting money.
Luoshen bit his lip to hold back his smile, took the mask he bought, and shared one with Ah Ting.
Ah Ting picked out a golden toad, and his own was a biscuit.
She put on the animal face and looked at the lights and the street outside and people coming and going through the two round holes dug out. She felt extremely happy in her heart.
This night, at this moment, she is a carefree person who puts aside all her worries.
…
After walking around for a while, I met Jiang Tao and Shen's wife and their two children. After a few words of greetings, the child, Wang A Ting, took the two children and left with the Jiang and his wife, leaving only Luoshen and Li Mu. .
Luoshen, wearing an animal face, continued to walk and stroll around to see if he stopped.
Li Mu still followed behind her, not saying a word, but he did not leave an inch.
Luoshen bought a few more small noodle people, little candy people, turned around and asked him to hold them for himself.
This is the place with the most people in front of the City God's Gate. After walking a few steps, you will meet a man from Jingkou who greets Li Mu.
He stared at the face man Tang Ren Er handed over by Luoshen, and looked around quickly, as if hesitating for a while, but in the end, he still reached out and took it.
Luoshen didn't think much about it. Seeing that he had taken it, he continued to stroll. After a while, he turned around unintentionally, and found that he had a beast face on his face.
What he wears is Jiezhen, a dark animal face, ferocious and mighty, on his face, it unexpectedly matches him.
Good-looking is good-looking, and it should be the scene tonight.
But Luoshen suddenly understood.
It was clearly because he thought it was embarrassing to take these for himself, so he used a mask to cover his face, so as not to be recognized, right?
She stared at him and snorted, thinking that in the past few days, apart from pinching her feet every night, he was so indifferent to herself, she suddenly had the idea of playing tricks on him, and turned around to go to a crowded place Squeezed out, squeezed in, a cat's waist quietly hid behind the shadow of the stone tablet in front of the Temple of the City God.
Li Mu immediately noticed that she was gone.
He looked left and right, pulled out the animal face, looked anxious, kept looking for her in the crowd, and stopped several nearby women who were wearing similar clothes and the same animal face as her. The screams of the women turned their faces of the beasts.
In front of her, he has always been old-fashioned... Well, it's not good to say that, let's describe it as calm as a mountain.
Luoshen had never seen him show such an anxious look. He hid behind the stone tablet, quietly exposed half of his head, and peeped for a while, only then did he feel relieved.
It's almost time to take a look, just as he was about to come out, in the blink of an eye, he found that he had disappeared!
Now it was Luoshen's turn to panic.
He is very tall, standing in the crowd, belongs to the kind that can be seen at a glance.
But just now, she really only blinked, and when she opened her eyes, he was a living person, and he disappeared.
Where has he gone?
Luoshen hurried out from behind the stone tablet and stood there, desperately on tiptoe, looking around.
There are pits and valleys in front of them, all headed.
Some wore animal faces like her, some smiled, and some looked back at her. One by one, they came and went in front of her, walked over, and no one stopped.
This is the first time she has been single since she was a child.
In the crowd, the loneliness is doubly highlighted.
She was a little scared, and even more regretful in her heart. Just as she was about to take off the animal face and squeezed into the crowd to see it clearly, she moved her footsteps when a man's arm suddenly reached out behind her.
A big hand gripped her arm tightly, almost rudely. Luo Shen couldn't help himself, his feet staggered, and he was pulled behind the stone tablet he had just hidden.
The figure of a tall man descended from the top of his head, instantly burying her in the dark shadow between him and the stone tablet.
The animal face on his face was also lifted by him.
Luoshen leaned against the stone tablet behind him, and in front of him was the man, who had no way to escape. He was terrified. He raised his face and was about to scream for help, but his mouth opened into a circle and stopped.
She finally recognized it, and that person was Li Mu.
He lowered his head, almost pressed her body against the stone tablet, gritted his teeth, and scolded her in a low voice: "I just hid on purpose and told me to look for you everywhere. It's very fun, isn't it?"
