Douluo: Peerless Sky Eye Yuhao

Chapter 7 Dignity?How much is a catty!

"Come in." Chen Hongsheng didn't even ask Huo Yuhao who was looking for him and what he was doing. Instead, he said calmly, then turned around and walked towards the yard with his hands behind his back.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao didn't dare to delay, he closed the door of the compound lightly, and followed the old man in front of him lightly.

The courtyard is paved with bluestone slabs. A little green grass grows around the slabstone road, which is extraordinarily green, but there are more than that on the ground. Some fiery red leaves of maple trees fall on the ground and blend with it. This scene is like burning on the bluestone slabs. As gorgeous as a flame.

There was lightning and thunder in the sky, and thick clouds were pouring rain towards the earth. However, Huo Yuhao's eyes changed a bit as he looked at the housekeeper in front of him.

Neither of them opened an umbrella, and his whole body was drenched, but when the rain came to the old butler's side for about one meter, it seemed to be dispersed by an invisible force, which also kept the old butler's clothes clean.

With the powerful observation power brought by his spiritual eyes, Huo Yuhao could vaguely see a ripple-like aura surrounding the old housekeeper. This must be the key to blocking the rain.

There are no regular servants in the entire Luofeng courtyard. The old butler spent most of his life in the barracks, so he probably didn't like it very much. In addition, the servants were executed back then, so the old butler didn't need to be a regular servant of Luofeng. A servant of the courtyard.

The Luofeng Courtyard is not particularly large, but the decoration is very elegant. The overall building is light yellow. There are some kinds of fragrant herbal plants attached to the walls of the corridor outside the house. Just smelling it can make people feel extra relaxed.

Not long after the two walked, they soon came to a door with a peculiar pattern.On both sides of the door were inlaid a soul guide lamp emitting warm light, and the old butler casually pushed the door open.

Suddenly, as the door was opened, a stream of warm water swarmed out and slapped Huo Yuhao's face, causing his little face that was originally a little stiff due to the constant impact of the cold rain to suddenly relax.

The old butler walked in, but Huo Yuhao stopped in front of the gate and did not follow.

The old housekeeper walked a few steps, paused, turned around in confusion, and said in a strong voice, "Why don't you come in?"

Huo Yuhao looked at the fiery red plush carpet that covered the floor of the house, and then at his worn-out cloth shoes that were covered in mud, and explained in a low voice, "My shoes are too dirty, they will stain these carpets."

The old butler raised his eyelids, but he didn't say anything. After a while, his tone became inexplicably softer, "Someone will clean the carpet if it's dirty. Come in, tell me if you have anything to say."

Huo Yuhao did not hesitate this time and walked in. He stepped on the clean carpet and closed the door. However, he only stood one step in front of the door and did not move forward. , standing there politely.

The old housekeeper slowly walked to a sofa next to the fireplace and sat down. The hot air flowed out from the fireplace, making the entire hall of the house extremely warm.

"What do you want from me?" The old butler picked up the ceramic cup on the coffee table, opened the lid, blew in the still steaming tea, and then took a sip.

Huo Yuhao's face became serious. He put down the wet quilt in his hands, then knelt down on the ground, touching his forehead to the soft carpet, and said in a deep voice, "Please help me."

The hand of the old butler holding the teacup paused, his eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Your mother, Huo Yun'er, has been with that kid Dai Hao for so long, hasn't she taught your man that there is gold under his knees?" ?”

"Mother taught me." Huo Yuhao answered truthfully.

"Then why are you kneeling?" The old housekeeper's expression was extremely serious, a faint wave of soul power spread from him invisible, and the flames in the fireplace stopped beating as if they were suffocated.

Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate for a moment and said directly: "It's related to my life. I'm asking for help. The so-called gold under my man's knees is just empty talk."

"Humph." The old housekeeper couldn't help but laugh. He looked at Huo Yuhao inexplicably and said something in his words: "You are a sharp-tongued person, but kneeling down to ask for help is tantamount to abandoning your dignity. No. appropriate."

Huo Yuhao still looked at the carpet calmly. With a forced smile on his lips, he said, "Dignity is something that is only useful to the strong. The current me is just a weak person who will be killed at any time."

"Since you are asking for help, you must ask with the most sincerity, so...please help me."

Huo Yuhao's head was even lower, and his forehead was completely attached to the carpet.

When the old housekeeper heard this, his brows suddenly relaxed, and the hall became quiet.

There was no emotion in Huo Yuhao's eyes. In his previous life, he was an orphan and had no one to rely on. He dropped out of school early to work. In the final analysis, he was just at the bottom of society. He was used to it and experienced it personally. For him, dignity was even more important. It's not as firm as a piece of steamed bun I got when I was hungry.

Some people value dignity very much, because that is a person's final bottom line, and it is never allowed to be trampled on.But Huo Yuhao knew very well that he was not qualified to talk about dignity.Either he retains his dignity to win a momentary bottom line and is killed, or he gives up his dignity and abandons his momentary dignity to win a strong chance.

The flame in the fireplace started to dance again, and the warm yellow soul guide light fell, setting off its flame shadow continuously on the hot stone wall.

"Bang!" I don't know how long it took before the sound rang again. It was the clinking sound of the teacup and the coffee table when the old butler put down the teacup.

He looked up at the crystal soul guide lamp hanging from the ceiling of the hall, with an inexplicable expression on his face. It seemed that Huo Yuhao's words had aroused his thoughts. After a long time, the old housekeeper asked again: "How do you fight back against those people?" Someone who bullied you?"

Huo Yuhao's eyes froze, he suddenly raised his head, and looked at the old housekeeper in confusion.

The old housekeeper shook his head and smiled, but did not answer Huo Yuhao's doubts. Instead, he asked: "If someone comes to my place later to ask for someone, how should you deal with it?"

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, and his eyes showed a hint of joy. He knew that the old housekeeper planned to help him.He clenched his fists, and the stiffness of his body had eased in the warm room. He said solemnly: "According to House Rule No. 15 of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, if a servant commits an offense below the level, he can be beaten to death with a cane."

"Hahaha." The old housekeeper couldn't help laughing and pointed at Huo Yuhao, "Yes, you should say that, or you should have said it a long time ago. Don't worry, if they come to your door later, Old man, I’ll keep you safe.”

Huo Yuhao froze on the spot, looking at the laughing old housekeeper, and he felt an inexplicable realization in his heart.

Why was Huo Yuhao not secretly killed within a year after his mother's death? He even seemed so relaxed when he left the White Tiger Duke's Palace, without even a single guard appearing, as if the Duke's Palace was deserted.

Is there really no one behind this to help?
At this moment, Huo Yuhao had an idea in his heart. Could the person who helped secretly be this old housekeeper?

If the old housekeeper really helps behind the scenes, no matter how big or small the help is, as long as the other party helps, it is a great kindness.The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring of water. This must not be forgotten.

"Come and sit down." A gentle voice sounded. Huo Yuhao looked up and saw the old butler looking at him. Another sentence came out of the old butler's mouth, "If you don't come over and sit down, it will be difficult for me to help you."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate at all, and sat down directly on the sofa opposite the old butler with a few sprints.

The old butler shook his head and smiled. Seeing that Huo Yuhao's breath was weak, he turned and left the hall with a thought.

Huo Yuhao just sat in that position silently. The warm current from the fireplace next to him made him feel more comfortable. Huo Yuhao just sat simply, but the warm current that dispelled the coldness seemed to dispel the hunger in his stomach.

Everything was so beautiful, it made him feel a little unreal inside.
