Take charge of Ascension

Chapter 69 The Luo Family
Working with the caravan, although the speed of the road was slowed down, fortunately the distance was not far away. In the afternoon, we finally arrived in front of Sifang City.

Compared with Qiaomu Town, Sifang City is much larger and occupies a much wider area. It is clearly a huge city. The city wall is high, wide and thick, and it is made of bluestone, showing the sense of ancient vicissitudes.

The gates of Sifang City are not the same as Qiaomu Town. No one is guarding them, and anyone can enter and exit. If Sifang City wants to enter, they have to pay a city fee.

In front of the city gate, there were two rows of guards standing side by side, uniformly dressed, with knives and guns straddled, neatly arranged, showing a bit of majesty and majesty.

Curiously, he looked at the guards in front of the city gates, and felt that these people's cultivation was not high, most of them were ordinary people, and only a few high-level warriors.

When Zhao Ji, Yuan Chengzhi and the caravan arrived, there was a long queue in front of the city gate, and many people were waiting to enter the city. According to that slow speed, Zhao Ji estimated that it would take less than half the time when it was his turn to wait for others. an hour.

However, what happened next overturned Zhao Ji's previous thinking. At the gate of the city, the caravan had no intention of lining up at all. Luo Fu went to find one of the guards at the gate, talked for a while, and stuffed a bag things, they entered the city smoothly first.

When the people in line saw this kind of breaking the rules, none of them felt dissatisfied, as if they had long been used to it.

Seeing this kind of scene, Zhao Ji couldn't help secretly sighing how similar it was to what he saw in film and television dramas and literary works in his previous life.It can be seen that no matter where you are, there is no shortage of privileged classes.

After entering the city, Luo Qiushui warmly invited Zhao Ji and said, "Brother Zhao, why don't you go to my house and sit down for a while, and I will help you buy the necessary medicinal materials in person."

"Well, that's fine too."

After thinking for a while, Zhao Ji nodded in agreement.

Sifang City is very popular, with many houses and many roads, with many twists and turns. If you are not a permanent resident, if you walk around the city twice, you may get lost.

Zhao Ji and Yuan Chengzhi, with a caravan leading the way, were not afraid of getting lost. After walking through a few streets and turning a few turns, they arrived in front of a mansion.

"Lo House."

This mansion covers a large area, maybe tens of acres. In Sifang City, where every inch of land is expensive, to have such a mansion, it can be seen that the Luo family has a lot of power in the city.

Zhao Ji memorized some of the route from the city gate to Luo Mansion while walking, but it was not complete. However, he vaguely knew that Luo Mansion was in the southern city of Sifang City.

"Brother Zhao, my house is here, let's go in together."

Arriving at the door of the house, Luo Qiushui's expression relaxed a lot, and his mood obviously improved a lot. He jumped off the carriage with one step and greeted Zhao Ji.

"Okay, I just want to pay a visit to the elders of your mansion."

In response to Luo Qiushui, Zhao Ji said to Yuan Chengzhi behind him: "Brother Yuan, let's go in."

Luo Qiushui entered the Luo Mansion first, followed by Zhao Ji and Yuan Chengzhi, and Luo Qingyun guarded closely, never falling behind.As for the rest of the caravan, under the command of Luo Fu, they moved the items on the carriage, including the gold and silver obtained from the transaction, and some goods and rare gadgets collected from various places.

Back home, Luo Qiushui was unimpeded. Wherever he passed, all the servants of the Luo Mansion bowed and saluted respectfully.Some servants with higher status were surprised and delighted when they saw Luo Qiushui, and they greeted Luo Qiushui one after another.

"Hello miss."

"Miss is back."

"See miss."

……

Several servants greeted Luo Qiushui one by one, and walked towards the interior of the Luo Mansion to meet her. In front, there were two servants who shouted "Miss is back" while running.

The mansion, which seemed a little quiet at first, became a little noisy and noisy after Luo Qiushui came back.

Not long after the news spread, an old man in his fifties walked quickly out of the courtyard of Luo Mansion, dressed in fine clothes, facing majesty, he looked like a pampered person.

When the old man showed up, when he saw Luo Qiushui, his face was filled with joy, and he felt a little relieved, and his pace couldn't help but be a little faster.

As soon as the old man came out, Luo Qiushui also showed joy on his face, and couldn't help but move faster, and when he reached the old man, he threw himself into his arms.

"Daddy, my daughter is back. How are you these days?"

Throwing into the arms of the old man, Luo Qiushui said cheerfully.

"I've been at home and haven't gone anywhere. Naturally, it's fine, but you, who have been traveling for half a month, have suffered a lot."

He caught Luo Qiushui and held her in his arms. The old man patted her on the back and said with pity.

Luo Qiushui giggled, pretending to be plain and said: "It's nothing, I'm used to the days of walking outside, and it's only half a month of running around, it's nothing."

"By the way, Daddy, this time, when my daughter came back, she met a man chasing the wind robbers. Fortunately, a hero helped her, and the danger was saved."

After talking about parting with the old man, Luo Qiushui thought of Zhao Ji who was waiting at the side, and hurriedly introduced him to the old man.

"What, Windchaser!"

The old man was startled, and then said angrily: "They are becoming more and more rampant. Our Luo family's caravan dares to make a move. It's really unreasonable."

When the old man got angry, he was quite powerful. As a martial artist with a strong cultivation base, his outburst of anger made people feel intimidated.

The Wind Chasing Bandit is a relatively well-known bandit organization within a hundred miles of this area. It likes to rob caravans and wealthy households, and it comes and goes like the wind, and even the government can't do anything about it.

The Luo family is one of the most famous big families in Sifang City. Under normal circumstances, the Wind Chaser would not dare to take advantage of these big families.

You must know that in the local area, these big families, tycoons, and gangs have more influence and power than the government. Those green forest bandits are unwilling to provoke such forces.

This time, Chasing the Wind Pirates broke the rules and made the old man furious. It is conceivable that there will be a bloodbath near Sifang City in the near future.

"Old man Luo Chongshan, I have met the little hero, thank you for saving my daughter's life, I am very grateful."

Knowing that it was Zhao Ji who saved Luo Qiushui's life, the old man was very grateful, and quickly thanked him, keeping his posture very low.

"Senior Luo, you are being polite. It is the duty of a chivalrous man of my generation to draw his sword to help when the road is rough. Zhao Ji is ashamed to thank you from senior."

Zhao Ji smiled and said very politely.

"Hahaha, okay, what a chivalrous person of my generation is. The little hero's cultivation is tyrannical, and his chivalrous spirit is even more commendable."

Luo Chongshan laughed a few times and said loudly.
