MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 71 strangeness

Just when Ling Chu wanted to take a closer look at Lu Chengliu's face, he saw a student hurriedly walking from the academy and said in a loud voice, "Brother Lu, Brother Lu, Master Qiu wants to see you for something."

Lu Chengliu heard that his master wanted to see him, so he thanked his classmates who came to convey the message, then turned and walked back to the academy.

Ning Chuyi looked away and asked Ling Chu, "What's the problem with Lu Chengliu?"

Lingchu kept staring at Lu Chengliu's back until he couldn't see it anymore, then he looked away.

Hearing Ning Chuyi's question, he hesitated for a while, frowned and said, "There are two auras on Lu Chengliu that seem to repel each other, causing his appearance to be a little inconsistent. Unfortunately, I only took a quick look and didn't have time to observe more. "

Ning Chuyi didn't understand these mysterious things, and he didn't see anything wrong.

 In his eyes, Lu Chengliu was just like most students, there was no difference.

 “The academy, can I go in?”

Ning Chuyi shook his head, "The academy is not open to the public, and outsiders are not allowed to enter."

Although he is the commander of the Jinyi Guards, it is not easy to break in without any reason. If the Censor's Office had known about it, the emperor's records would have been piled high with his information.

Ling Chu also guessed that he couldn't go in casually, "Forget it, didn't you find out where Lu Chengliu lives? I'll find a way to see where he lives another day."

"Okay, if there is any problem that cannot be solved, you can ask Prince Jing for help. After all, this matter is related to him, and he will not ignore it."

Ning Chuyi still had something to do, so he explained a few words and left in a hurry.

Lingchu drank tea slowly in the teahouse and ordered some snacks, intending to soothe his stomach.

This teahouse is close to Changfeng Academy. School is now over, and Ling Chu found that many students came over to drink tea and chat.

　　Just as I picked up the snack and took a bite, I suddenly heard the discussion of several students next to me.

“Hey, I heard that Lu Chengliu didn’t do well in the exam again and only got a B grade.”

"He used to mostly get first-class grades, but since he broke his head, his grades have been far worse than before. Originally, the master expected him to be the first in high school, but if this continues, there is little hope."

"I also heard that his hand was injured and his calligraphy is better than before. I'm afraid God is jealous of Yingcai."

 …

Lingchu didn't expect that he would also hear the gossip about Lu Chengliu.

It's a pity that what these students said is similar to what Jinyiwei found out.

Unable to hear any more information, Ling Chu had no choice but to leave the teahouse.

 The next day, Ling Chu first went to a clothing store and bought two Taoist robes, and then went to a bookshop to buy a set of Four Treasures for the Study.

 during 

 The key to the matter of embroidering the moon.

 Choose a bookstore. After Ling Chu selects what he needs, he plans to go to the front to find the shopkeeper to pay.

Unexpectedly, she saw the shopkeeper talking to a man, so she had to stand aside and wait.

“Lu Chengliu, your handwriting is good, but our library doesn’t need to copy books for the time being. These twenty pieces are the money you paid for copying books this time, so take it.”

Ling Chu raised his eyebrows, what a coincidence?

Finding that Lu Chengliu's back was facing him, Ling Chu simply took the picked things and moved a few steps towards the shopkeeper.

But when he saw the man's face clearly, he looked surprised.

This is - Lu Chengliu?

Even though it was just a quick glance at the academy yesterday, she remembered that the other person's skin tone was not that dark?

 The more he looked at it, the more strange Ling Chu felt.

Lu Chengliu wore a student uniform in the academy, but now he wears a patchwork uniform.

There is also Lu Chengliu who was seen at the entrance of the academy. He gave people the temperament of a poor student, but now he has the simplicity of a farming and studying family. What's even more strange is that the aura of disobedience on his body is gone.

Lingchu's brows furrowed tighter and tighter. For some reason, even though they had the same appearance, when she looked at the person in front of her, why did she feel like they were two different people from the one she saw in the academy?

 But isn’t this too ridiculous?

It must be that she didn't see clearly in the academy, which led to this illusion.

 After all, she was sitting in a teahouse at that time, which was still some distance away from the entrance of the academy. She only glanced at it hastily, so it was not surprising that she didn't see it clearly.

Probably sensing Ling Chu's appraising gaze, Lu Chengliu suddenly turned his head and looked this way.

 When he realized it was a girl, he was startled and looked away without daring to look any further.

Lu Chengliu looked anxious when he heard that the shopkeeper would not let him continue copying books, "Shopkeeper Chen, can you let me continue copying books? It doesn't matter if the price is lower."

Shopkeeper Chen sighed, pointed to the row of bookshelves next to him and said, "It's not about the price. You copied so many books, but I haven't had time to sell them yet. If you continue to copy, I'm afraid my bookstore won't be able to keep them." ”

 Lu Chengliu smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard the books on the bookshelf. He didn't expect that this only source of income would not be saved.

Maybe seeing the disappointed look on his face, Shopkeeper Chen couldn't bear it, "Well, when the books you copied are sold out, you can copy them again. Don't worry, I will give you the same price."

Lu Chengliu knew that shopkeeper Chen had already helped him a lot. The copied books had not yet been sold, so he really could not continue copying them.

Enduring his disappointment, he thanked shopkeeper Chen, and walked out of the bookstore holding the twenty pieces of literature.

Ling Chu frowned and glanced at the back, then stepped forward to pay with his things in his arms.

The shopkeeper reached out to take it. Ling Chu pointed to the handwritten book on the counter and said, "Shopkeeper, this book is well copied. I want to buy a copy."

The shopkeeper was worried that the books copied by Lu Chengliu would not be sold out, so he was naturally happy to hear that she wanted to buy them.

Lingchu pretended to inquire casually, "The name of the man just now is Lu Chengliu? I think he writes well. Why can't the books he copied be sold?"

　　Perhaps this matter has been kept in his heart. Shopkeeper Chen didn't hide it when she asked about it.

"Lu Chengliu's handwriting is indeed good, but I can't stop him from copying it day and night. My shop is small, and he copied so much. I can't sell it for a short while."

"I see that his calligraphy is so good. He must be studying in an academy, right? Isn't he busy with his studies? How can he have time to copy books day and night?"

Shopkeeper Chen shook his head and sighed, "I heard that his family was poor and could not afford to pay Shuxiu, so he did not go to the academy, but studied hard at home.

In order to make a living, he found out that I could copy books here. After I took the job, he copied it day and night. "

Ling Chu was surprised, didn’t he go to the academy to study?

 Could it be that Lu Chengliu copied more books to gain sympathy and lied to Shopkeeper Chen?

Perhaps seeing the surprise on Ling Chu’s face, he was worried that she would regret not letting go of the copied book. Shopkeeper Chen immediately explained.

“It turns out that Lu Chengliu was studying at Changfeng Academy. I heard that he often got first-class grades in his studies, and the masters at the academy had high hopes for him.

It's a pity that he fell from the mountain and injured his head, so he had to recuperate at home. If he hadn't spent all his family's money on medical treatment, he wouldn't have been unable to pay Shu Xiu. "

“Then he has no relatives at home, so why can he just copy the books by himself?”

 “I heard that he only has a widowed mother who stays in his hometown”

“Did he fall badly? Are his hands and feet injured?”

"That's not true. If his hand was injured, he wouldn't be able to copy so many books."

Ling Chu lowered his head, and the words on the handwritten book were strong and powerful, and it really didn't look like they could be written by an injured person.

But since he was not injured, why did the students in the academy say that Lu Chengliu injured his hand?
