In today's world, it is actually very difficult for a person to completely hide his past under the gaze of Jin Yiwei.
As early as when Lu Hanjiang set his sights on Jiangnan Academy, Jin Yiwei had already moved the complete set of records to his bookcase.
Everyone in the academy, how they came and how they went, are recorded very clearly. Even visitors who have a casual relationship or travelers who stay overnight, as long as they have the slightest connection with the academy, cannot escape the Jin Yiwei. s eyes.
But only this Qing Yao, the sweeper of the academy, could not find out a single thing about him during the half of his life before he came to the academy.
If someone hides part of his past and Jin Yiwei cannot find out, this is understandable. After all, Jin Yiwei is a human being, not a god.
But it is very scary for a person to be able to completely hide his past without leaving any trace.
So far, Lu Hanjiang knows no one who can do it, except for those weirdos who have stayed away from the world and lived as savages in the mountains all their lives.
Even if he is as mysterious as Xuantian Cult Leader, Jin Yiwei can find out his origins from the descriptions given by others.
But it's really unreasonable for such an old man who sweeps the floor that no one cares about, and not even a word about his past.
Before today, Lu Hanjiang had also thought about whether this person was an outsider hiding in the academy, but the test just now showed everything that this person was not.
When the kid bumped into him, if he took action, something would naturally be exposed. If he pretended to be the best and was knocked down, it would also reveal a lot of things.
But Qing Ruo was very embarrassed, and consciously wanted to avoid it, but was unable to do so due to his old body, and was accidentally knocked down in the end.
This basically confirmed to Lu Hanjiang that this person, at least in terms of martial arts, could not be as good as the "sweeping monk" in the story.
After a while, the three of them were back on the street. Qing Yao had been helped up. Everyone was about to help him go back to rest, when someone saw the three of them from a distance.
Yongle came forward with concern, but didn't know how to speak. At this time, someone with sharp eyes had already recognized Lu Hanjiang.
Many people have heard the story Lu Hanjiang told at the tea stall just now, and those who are smart have already connected the two. After all, he just hinted that Wan Qing wants the old man to have an extraordinary origin, and the child bumped into him. It is difficult not to doubt. The two are not related.
The crowd began to whisper. At this moment, Lu Hanjiang followed suit. He directly pressed Shan Luo's head and said apologetically: "I'm so sorry, my roommate. I'm playful. Are you okay?"
Everyone was in an uproar. It turned out that the child had not lied just now and was really instigated by them. Immediately, some people who couldn't see it wanted to stand up and say something.
But Lu Hanjiang still took the lead and said: "Don't worry, old man, this matter is our fault, and we must give you an explanation. Why don't you let me help you go home to rest first, and then ask a doctor to take a look at you?" ?”
The man who wanted to speak was choked by Lu Hanjiang, and then Shangluo covered her face with wisdom and started crying: "I'm sorry, grandpa, it's all because I'm too playful, wuwuwu... .”
While crying, Shangluo peeked out from between her fingers and winked at Lu Hanjiang.
The brother and sister sang in harmony, leaving everyone at a loss for what to say. Let them take responsibility. This person has already accepted everyone. You should blame them. They have already admitted their mistake. The girl is crying so sadly. Okay, what else are you thinking about?
When Qing Yao saw that the three of them were dressed in either rich or noble ways, his cloudy old eyes moved slightly, and he hurriedly said that he was fine and there was no need to go to such trouble.
But Lu Hanjiang had already greeted passers-by to send Qing Yao back to the academy, and he himself followed with Yongle and Shangluo.
All the neighbors were still very wary of the three of them. It wasn't until Lu Hanjiang actually invited a doctor to show Qing Yao that they relaxed and then dispersed.
After the doctor prescribed the medicine for bruises and left, only Lu Hanjiang, the three who had gotten into trouble and were responsible for taking care of Qing Yao, were left in the academy.
Yongle felt relieved after seeing that the old man was fine. At this time, Shangluo and Lu Hanjiang had just sent the doctor away. On their way back, the little girl whispered: "Xiao Lu, what are you trying to do by holding on? ?”
Lu Hanjiang chuckled, turned to look at Shangluo and said, "You are quite clever. You really looked like you were crying just now."
The little girl waved her fist at Lu Hanjiang and said proudly: "Xiao Lu, you are a big liar. You will never turn back after you have deceived others. It must be intentional to be so abnormal today. I have seen it a long time ago."
"Oh, then I want to praise you?" Lu Hanjiang joked with a smile.
"That's right," Shangluo said curiously after finishing his speech: "Xiao Lu, you probably want to investigate that old man, or this academy. Why do you have to spend so much effort? Your martial arts are so high, you can directly Wouldn’t it be nice to climb over the wall and come in at night when it’s dark?”
】
"Because there are some things that must be clearly understood before they can truly be deceived." Lu Hanjiang said helplessly.
What Shan Luo said was actually the way Jin Yiwei worked on weekdays. This was actually something Lu Hanjiang couldn't say was embarrassing.
Ever since the spies of the Jin Yiwei faction became famous in the world for their ability to lay hidden secrets, whenever something mysterious happened that could not be investigated, the world would immediately place the blame on the Jin Yiwei.
Although this approach is crude, it is indeed very useful, because nine out of ten things that cannot be traced are the work of Jin Yiwei.
When Lu Hanjiang came to Jiangnan this time, he didn't want to take matters into his own hands and avoid letting everyone think in the direction of Jinyiwei first, so he went the extra mile and deliberately staged such a farce with Shangluo so that everyone could be fooled. Everyone knows how they got here.
As for if something happens in the future, then naturally someone will look for their traces, and when the time comes, the three people who have come and gone without a trace will become the target of attention in the world.
After the two returned to Qingyao's room, Lu Hanjiang asked the two girls to cook the medicine, while he accompanied Qingyao and took a look at the furnishings in the room.
Qing Yao's room was at the edge of the academy. It was just a very ordinary bedroom, but Lu Hanjiang still saw a few books on the cabinet in the corner.
He asked with great interest: "This academy is indeed extraordinary. Even the man who is responsible for cleaning like my father-in-law needs to be literate."
Qing Yao, who was lying on the bed, was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. What the academy wants to teach are the heroes of the world. People like the old man are nothing more than weeds on the roadside. They just went to school before coming to the academy, so they can't do it on weekdays." I’ll just read some books to pass the time.”
"Watching The Analects of Confucius to pass the time, my husband is good at joking."
Lu Hanjiang moved his eyes away from the cabinet, looked at Qing Yao and asked, "Since I have read a book, wouldn't it be better to be a bookkeeper, copy books for others, or manage a shop than to do hard work here?" ?”
Qing Yao laughed and said: "My lord, you have misunderstood. The old man just happened to know a few words. Vice President Meng Qi took him under his wing. I am satisfied that I can get a job here and spend the rest of my life. How dare I ask for too much."
"Zifei Yuan knows the joy of fish, well, it seems that my father-in-law really likes this academy," Lu Hanjiang said, suddenly changing the topic and said: "But I still have a question, I wonder if my father-in-law can answer it for me? "
Qing Yao said hurriedly: "Excuse me, noble sir."
Lu Hanjiang nodded and said: "This is a bit rude to ask, but I am really curious and dare to ask my father-in-law why he was named after the word 'Qing Yao'?"
This question made the old man Qing Yao suddenly raise his head. When their eyes met, even the air in the room seemed to be stagnant.
