Chapter 180 [General's Mansion] (1)

After the few people got the benefits of Luo Lie, they naturally became much more polite in their words and praised Luo Lie for not forgetting their roots.

After waiting for about half an hour, he saw that Yan Tuojiang's adjutant Zhou Wenhu came out. This person was elegant and had no common rash aura that local officers had. He came to Wu Jie and said with kindness: "Is this the gentleman who came to diagnose the disease?"

Wu Jie said: "It seems we shouldn't come today. The wife of the mansion is not an emergency disease. Let's go, apprentice." He bowed his hand and turned around and wanted to leave.

Zhou Wenhu winked, and several soldiers hurriedly blocked Wu Jie's way. Wu Jie said angrily: "What are you doing?"

Zhou Wenhu smiled apologized and said, "Sir, don't be angry. We must be slow to treat you. It's just that the wife woke up just now and was a little excited and said she would not accept treatment."

Wu Jie's expression was a little slow, and Luo Lie deliberately persuaded him: "Master, it is common for patients to experience recurrence due to their condition."

Zhou Wenhu said: "Please ask Mr. Wu for a high-quality diagnosis, and it is easy to discuss the rewards." In his opinion, these gangsters may not play any role. In order to treat Ma Yongqing's illness, the entire Xinman City was covered with lists of seeking talents. There must be brave men under heavy rewards. There are many gangsters who came for the bounty, but none of them could play a role. In the end, most of them were driven out in shame.

Zhou Wenhu was very busy when he came to see him off. Fortunately, he was able to keep smiling. Wu Jie had heard his subordinates report his background and knew that he had been telling fortunes in Langyun Temple before, thinking that Wu Jie was probably a wise man, but Luo Lie, who accompanied Wu Jie, attracted Zhou Wenhu's attention.

Although Luo Lie was gentle and elegant, he still couldn't hide his inner edge. Zhou Wenhu intuition judged that the young man in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person. He also heard that he was from Huangpu, so he looked at Luo Liegao in his heart. After all, they lived in the northwest border and believed that people coming from the metropolis were carrying some mysterious halo.

Under the leadership of Zhou Wenhu, the master and apprentice were able to enter the inner house. The soldiers who had just accompanied them to monitor them also stopped in front of the inner house. After entering the inner house, two servants dressed up came over and searched Wu Jie and Luo Lie respectively. This shows how tight the defense is.

After carefully checking the two of them and their personal belongings, they were sure that there was nothing unusual, so they were allowed to enter.

Yan Tuojiang and his wife's residence are a two-story building. The design of the building refers to some Western elements. However, in Luo Lie's opinion, there is no need to integrate these elements, and it is mixed with the original style of the northwest house, which looks extremely abrupt.

The owner lives upstairs, where guests are served daily for daily meals. Half of the ordinary guests cannot enter the inner house. The interior decoration is also inconsistent with Chinese and Western decoration. On the wall of the living room, there is a picture of a tiger going down the mountain. On both sides are hung with a couplet written by Yan Tuojiang. There is a Western self-tone bell on the table, and there is a Venus sculpture. There is a large cloisonne vase that is tall one person in the corner of the northwest wall. The sofa is actually an imported product bought from overseas. A Persian carpet is laid on the ground in the middle of the living room, which realizes the mixing and matching of various regions.

Zhou Wenhu asked the two to sit in the living room first, and then asked the servants to make tea. Although he was Yan Tuojiang's adjutant, he also acted as a similar manager in the general's mansion, and he had to ask about all matters.

This time, Wu Jie and Luo Lie did not wait too long. After a while, they saw a young maid walking down the stairs and whispering to Zhou Wenhu. However, they asked the medical examiner to go upstairs. Zhou Wenhu asked Wu Jie to go upstairs, but left Luo Lie alone. First, after all, the upstairs was a private residence, and it was not convenient for too many people to go up. Second, Luo Lie's identity was just Wu Jie's apprentice. The master had taken action, so naturally he didn't have to work for his apprentice.

Wu Jie followed the maid upstairs.

Zhou Wenhu was drinking tea with Luo Lie downstairs. He quietly looked at Luo Lie from the corner of his eyes. Zhou Wenhu had a higher vision, and there were many ordinary soldiers. He had long seen that Luo Lie is not a local. Zhou Wenhu thought more than others. Seeing Luo Lie's eyes fixed on an oil painting on the wall, the oil painting was painted with Yan Tuojiang and his wife Ma Yongqing. The oil paintings were realistic, almost exactly the same as real-life photos. Although the painter beautified Yan Tuojiang, it could still be seen that the couple was quite different in age. This is the case. Yan Tuojiang was twenty-five years older than Ma Yongqing, a typical old couple.

Zhou Wenhu remembered that his wife had studied in Huangpu, and couldn't help but think in his heart, this young man wouldn't know Ma Yongqing, right? He said deliberately: "Mr. Luo is from Huangpu, and my wife was also studying in Huangpu. I wonder if Mr. Luo knows?"

Luo Lie was still staring at the oil painting, smiling in his heart. Huangpu is not a small place, not to mention that he had not been able to return to China for a long time. According to his understanding, when he arrived in Huangpu, Ma Yongqing had already left, and they had no chance of meeting. However, Luo Lie still said: "Mrs. Yan looks a little familiar. She looks very similar to a female classmate in my past."

Zhou Wenhu was stunned. Could it be that Luo Lie and Ma Yongqing really knew each other? It was a coincidence. He responded very quickly, and laughed and said, "There are many similar people in the world. What is the name of Mr. Luo's female classmate?"

Luo Lie said: "She is not surnamed Ma, so..." He paused deliberately and said: "It's impossible."

Zhou Wenhu nodded.

Luo Lie picked up the tea cup and drank tea calmly. The sky was dry outside and the cicadas were chirping. After about half an hour, Wu Jie came back, the maid showed joy. Judging from her expression alone, the hostess' disease must have improved a little.

Zhou Wenhu asked about the situation. It turned out that after Wu Jie went up and gave Ma Yongqing a few injections, her mood calmed down. During this period, Wu Jie asked about the condition and took the pulse.

At this time, Wu Jie asked for a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and prescribed a prescription. After the ink was dry, he handed the prescription to Zhou Wenhu and explained: "Follow the medicine according to the prescription I wrote, decoct it in water, take it three times a day, and take it after a meal. I believe that the wife should be able to live without worries. But..." At this point, Wu Jie deliberately kept it in secret.

Zhou Wenhu said: "But what? Just say it clearly, the remuneration is definitely not a problem."

Wu Jie said: "Mrs.'s condition is very complicated. If it is just to save my life, there will be no problem as long as I follow my prescription. But Mrs.'s mind is extremely confused, which is a mental damage, which is beyond Wu's ability."

Zhou Wenhu nodded repeatedly and said, "Mr. Wu said that since his wife fell ill yesterday, she suddenly became unconscious and could not even recognize the people around her."

Wu Jie said: "Who is this commander's wife?"

Zhou Wenhu was stopped by his words, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "Next Zhou Wenhu will be the guard officer next to the commander."

Wu Jie said: "I don't want to say some things. You are not a big coach, I'm afraid you can't make a decision."

Only then did Zhou Wenhu feel the other party's power. Wu Jie's words blocked him so much that he could not speak. With his identity, it was naturally impossible to make decisions for Ma Yongqing. Wu Jie also sent a signal to Luo Lie through these words, that Yan Tuojiang was not upstairs.

Luo Lie understood that the rumors from the outside world were not false, and Yan Tuojiang was indeed undermined. Otherwise, his wife would be sick and there would be no reason for others to be out of the mansion. As for the reason why Yan Tianxin was captured, the truth behind it is still unknown.

Zhou Wenhu said: "The Marshal had an urgent matter just now and will come back later. Mr. Wu might as well tell me if I have something to do, and I will convey it to the Marshal as soon as possible." After a circle, he still told Wu Jie that you can't see the Marshal.

Wu Jie said, "It's better not to say it." After writing the prescription, he grabbed the bamboo stick and stood up and said, "Luo Lie, let's go!"

Luo Lie responded, picked up the medicine box and was about to follow Wu Jie to leave, but he heard a loud voice coming from outside, saying, "Who is lazy, sir?"

Luo Liexun looked out, but saw a majestic young officer walking into the door. He was about thirty years old, tall, handsome, handsome, grey uniform, straight and crossed the armed belt, with a gun holster on the right side of his waist, and a long sword hanging on his left waist, majestic and imposing demeanor. This person is the current actual controller of Xinman Camp, Ma Yongping, Yan Tuojiang's brother-in-law.

Ma Yongping walked into the room, took off the sunglasses on the edge of the golden silk, and looked sharply at Wu Jie. After he found that Wu Jie was just a blind man, he immediately turned his gaze to Luo Lie's face.

Luo Lie smiled calmly and said softly, "Master, General Ma is here." In the troubled times, there were many generals as many as dogs. Generals were walking all over the ground. Any force could call themselves the commander, which was similar to the Shan King who occupied the mountain as the king. As for the real military rank, no one would go into it. No one knew their commander and who was the general.

Wu Jie said indifferently: "Can General Ma make the decision?"

When Zhou Wenhu heard that he was disrespectful to Ma Yongping, he immediately scolded: "Bold!"

Ma Yongping raised his hand and stopped Zhou Wenhu from continuing, smiling and said, "It's my sister who is sick, so I can do it naturally."

Wu Jie nodded just now and said, "Since I can make the decision, I will tell the truth. My wife's life can be saved, but there is no cure for my inner problems. I am afraid that I will be crazy and my relatives will not recognize me."

The smile on Ma Yongping's face suddenly subsided. What Wu Jie said was definitely not good news for him. He walked closer to Wu Jie and said in a low voice: "Is there no other way sir?"

Wu Jie shook his head.

Ma Yongping said: "Then find a way. Since you can save Yongqing's life, you will definitely be able to cure her, right?"

Wu Jie's answer was extremely straightforward: "I can do nothing!"

Ma Yongping's handsome face was distorted and deformed due to anger. He roared: "How can you say you can't do anything you can?"
