Raiders, loyal dog

The little guy refused to speak, but Qiao Zhibai looked at him with the intention of teasing him.

But the sky didn't work out, Qiao Zhibai had just flirted with him for a while, and before the child he bullied made a snort, the human tooth who had already made a human transaction hurriedly kissed the two of them intimately. The friendly and wonderful exchange was interrupted: "It seems that this young master wants to buy a servant? Hehe, speaking of these dancer slaves, I can assure you that in this piece, what I have in Wang San's hand is absolutely The top-notch ones just don't know what kind of child the young master wants?"

Qiao Zhibai heard the man's sharp tone, and the playful smile that had been hanging on his face faded slightly.Slowly straightened up, and looked in the direction of the person who made the sound: only three steps away, a short and fat man who was already somewhat bald was approaching him with a flattering smile on his face.

The man was wearing a poor-quality silk dress, and his facial features were squeezed out of shape by the fat on his oily face.A pair of mung bean eyes are very bright, and turning around casually gives people the feeling that he is calculating something.

Qiao Zhibai frowned slightly in disgust, but soon, he forcibly suppressed the disgust, casually pointed to the child in front of him, and asked casually: "I see this child and Others seem to be a little different, he is also your slave here?"

The man quickly glanced at the motionless child with his head deeply buried between his arms, and an inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes.Qiao Zhibai, who had been observing the man, was surprised to find that at that moment, there was a trace of fear in the man's eyes.

"He is the most unrefined slave. Don't look too small, his bones are very hard, and we haven't trained him well yet." The man spat, and then explained to Qiao Zhibai with a flattering smile, "Ever since I became a slave, I wanted to run whenever I had the opportunity. No, I ran again a few days ago, and I was caught again last night. I was so angry that I found a few people directly. In the past, he loosened his bones."

The man said, thinking of something, with a delicate expression on his face: "Besides, this bastard is still... well, don't talk about it, it's so unlucky. My lord, if you want a smart servant, we have one here A few very good children, handsome in appearance and smart in temper, why don't you come and have a look with me?"

Qiao Zhibai stood where he was, as if he didn't hear the man's words, turned sideways and still only looked at the little guy huddled in the corner, as if isolated from the world.

"Master? Master?"

"How much money does it cost to buy him?" Qiao Zhibai suddenly said this after a long silence.

After finishing speaking, not only the short and fat man, but even Qiao Zhibai himself was slightly taken aback.But fortunately, even though the words seemed to slip out without thinking, Qiao Zhibai didn't feel any regret.On the contrary, it seemed that the whole person's mood became clear, and he turned his head to look at Ren Yazi, and repeated: "I just like him, and I don't want anything else."

Qiao Zhibai pursed a faint smile, bent down and picked up the child.Although he had already felt it before, the weight in his arms, which was much lighter than that of children of the same age, made Qiao Zhibai feel an inexplicable unhappiness in his heart.

Looking straight at the mung bean eyes of the master's teeth, Qiao Zhibai said calmly, "Go and give me the child's deed of prostitution."

The short and fat man didn't expect Qiao Zhibai to be so determined to buy this child, his whole face wrinkled in distress for a while, looked at Qiao Zhibai and then swept the little slave in his arms, hesitating to speak , but like this, in the end he didn't say anything, he just ordered another person beside him to bring a contract of sale.

While holding the little slave he bought with one hand, Qiao Zhibai quickly glanced at the words on the deed of sale, and then rejoiced in his heart: Fortunately, although it is a parallel space, it still uses the ancient Chinese one. traditional characters.

Although Qiao Zhibai didn't know the traditional Chinese characters very well, the content on the deed of sale was indeed very simple. Qiao Zhibai even guessed, but he didn't find anything wrong after scanning it at a glance.

After confirming that there was no problem with the sale contract, Qiao Zhibai simply paid the money.But what I didn't expect was that the price of the child in my arms was unbelievably cheap. If I really calculated it, the board and lodging expenses for a day in Baiweilou would be enough to buy three Ling Zixiu.

Well, Ling Zixiu is the name of the child in his arms.

Qiao Zhibai said that he was able to accurately find out the name of the little guy from the deed in such a short glance, and he would like 32 praises for his IQ.

When watching from the sidelines, Qiao Zhibai also saw someone buying a few children back.Although the prices of the several children were not the same, even the lowest one was nearly five times more expensive than the Ling Zixiu I bought.

Qiao Zhibai was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask the short and fat man in front of him.

However, Qiao Zhibai acted calmly, but Ren Yazi over there seemed a little anxious.Seeing that Qiao Zhibai was about to leave with Ling Zixiu in his arms, the man finally couldn't help but said, "My lord, that child, you...be careful."

Qiao Zhibai paused, did not reply, but turned his head slightly and glanced at the man behind him from the corner of his eye.

"He, he is too evil. If you don't want it one day, just kill him and throw it away."

Ling Zixiu, who was always quiet in his arms, trembled slightly after hearing the man's vicious words.Although it was not obvious, Qiao Zhibai, who was holding Ling Zixiu in his arms, immediately noticed his unspoken fear.

Supporting Ling Zixiu's body with one hand, with the other hand attached to his small head, exerting a slight force, so that he can gently lean in his arms.

"I won't bother you about these things." Qiao Zhibai said coldly, and without looking back, he hugged Ling Zixiu and strode away.

Well, the young master is like that.

Although because of Ling Zixiu's little accident, Qiao Zhibai's original plan to give Xu Miao's wedding gift was not bought, but Qiao Zhibai, who managed to bring back an exclusive "little slave", was obviously in a good mood.

Carrying Ling Zixiu all the way back to Baiwei Building, after telling Xiaoer to remember to bring a pot of hot water and some signature dishes, Qiao Zhibai took Ling Zixiu upstairs to his room.

Even though Ling Zixiu was already very light, after Qiao Zhibai carried him through several bustling streets, he had to sincerely express that his blood gauge was about to reach zero.

Gently put Ling Zixiu on the ground, Qiao Zhibai stretched out his hand to touch his little head slightly out of breath, and jokingly said, "Huh? From yesterday until now, why haven't I heard you say a word? Hmm, Could it be that I bought back a little mute? If it is really a mute, then I will lose a lot this time, tsk tsk."

He frowned in frustration, but there was a smile in his eyes: "Come on, Xiaoxiu, I'll give you a chance to prove yourself, quickly call 'Master' to come and listen. Shout out, and I'll reward you later." How about a big chicken leg, huh?"

Ling Zixiu just stood there blankly, still not speaking.Qiao Zhibai watched from the side, seeing that he really didn't intend to speak at all, he couldn't help feeling a little headache.

The little second-hands in Baiweilou are very neat. After the two of them stayed in the room for a while, the little second-hand had already brought up the hot water as ordered.

"Can you take a bath yourself?" Qiao Zhibai asked Ling Zixiu, but unexpectedly received no answer.

Qiao Zhibai, who was ignored, made a small cross on his forehead, stared at Ling Zixiu who was using his life to explain what is called "non-violent non-cooperation" for a while, and finally raised the white flag softly.He sighed helplessly, and after laughingly cursing "I owe you in my previous life", he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to help Ling Zixiu take a bath himself.

But even though Qiao Zhibai felt that he had condescended, the little guy was still not happy.Seeing that Qiao Zhibai's hand was reaching out to help him undress, but he always dodged left and right and did not cooperate.After tossing for a while, Qiao Zhi became angry, and stretched out his hand to give Ling Zixiu a headache, and Ling Zixiu stopped awkwardly.

But before Qiao Zhibai breathed a sigh of relief, the next moment, seeing Ling Zixiu's scarred and mottled body under the cover of clothes, Qiao Zhibai's anger suddenly "cracked" up.

"How did this happen?" Qiao Zhibai asked Ling Zixiu without thinking, but then felt that he had asked a stupid question.The wounds were still very fresh, and some of them hadn't even scabbed yet. Presumably this was the beating Ling Zixiu received last night after he was taken back by Ren Yazi.

Suddenly, I couldn't help blaming myself: If he had brought him with me at noon yesterday, maybe...

Qiao Zhibai's voice seemed a little cold because he was suppressing his anger, Ling Zixiu heard it, and curled up a little uneasily.Then he didn't speak, just pushed Qiao Zhibai, turned around and prepared to dive into the bathtub by himself.

"You want to go directly into the water after being injured like this? What if you get infected later? You don't want to die?" Qiao Zhibai was so angry that he had no choice but to pinch the back of Ling Zixiu's neck, gently pinched, and said in frustration, "Stay still, I'll get you a doctor... If you feel uncomfortable, wait for me to come back, and I will wipe you with a wet towel. Rest here, don't get wet, and don't make trouble for me, listen Have you arrived yet?"

After saying that, regardless of whether Ling Zixiu responded or not, he grabbed the purse and hurried out and went downstairs.

Ling Zixiu stood in the room blankly until he could no longer hear anyone's footsteps, then slowly raised his head.The sun shone into the room through the open window, Ling Zixiu stretched out his hand to brush away his too long hair, a pair of black and red eyes with different colors appeared inexplicably under the sunlight shining on his dirty little face. It's kind of weird.

Looking sideways at the steaming hot water in the tub, Ling Zixiu subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch it, but in the end, he still took into account Qiao Zhibai's last order, and at the last moment gently moved his hand I took it back.

Turning his head and looking at the gate again, after a while, Ling Zixiu slowly lowered his head again, letting his hair tightly cover his ominous eyes, and then, gently, gently Answer: "Okay."
