Chapter 24 Demon
As for Li Qi, he finally smiled when he saw the girl, opened his mouth and showed a big white teeth.
Why?
Because she woke up, so there wouldn't be so much trouble.
Besides, this woman looked very rich, and her clothes were all gauze scarves.
Just kidding, Li Qi has never touched a gauze scarf until now. Even the rich and middle-class families in Lizhou City that he could get in touch with mostly wore cotton cloth. As for a poor guy like him, it was good to have linen cloth to wear.
What is the concept of a gauze scarf?
At least he must be a big landlord, right?
There is just one question...
If he really has money, then it shouldn't be a problem to spend money to find a capable person. Why did he delay until now and let those of us who pass by rescue people?
I don't know why.
But it could also be a coincidence.
However... there could also be other reasons. We should be on guard against others, so let's test it.
Li Qi thought about these: "This girl..."
"Ah--!" Shen Shuibi shivered in fear, made a strange sound in her mouth, and even rolled over.
Ba Kui took a look and frowned: "This woman, I'm afraid she was frightened by the demons and went crazy. This is troublesome."
"No trouble, no trouble, it's better if she goes crazy, we don't have to take responsibility, after tasting the taste, just throw her anywhere, she will run away by herself, there is no need for us to do anything." A merchant next to him said.
Li Qi now understands the situation of these merchants more clearly. No wonder Adu doesn't dare to go with them and can only find strangers.
These people are probably merchants at ordinary times. Once they have the opportunity, they will immediately turn into thieves. They don't mind doing evil at all. Maybe they have some loyalty, but just like Li Kui, they only have small loyalty to people, but no sense of right and wrong.
As for great righteousness, it has to be in the heart of the world. Li Qi feels that he, a gouging boatman, is not qualified to talk about it.
But before he could speak, Shen Shuibi stood up immediately after hearing this: "I... I'm not crazy! You, don't... don't..." She stuttered for a long time and finally said: "Don't touch me!"
Compared to stuttering, the action of getting up was very swift, and it didn't look like she had been bumped all night.
Because the man named Li Qi laughed horribly, showing his teeth, as if he wanted to eat people.
No, he wanted to eat rabbits.
As for Li Qi, he was a little puzzled.
This time he didn't pause, but finished it all at once: "Miss, what's your name?"
Although I don't know what this woman misunderstood, she doesn't look very smart, so I'd better guide her first.
"I... My name is Shen Shuibi."
"My name is Li Qi, Miss Shen, were you kidnapped by that monster before? Do you remember where your home is?" Li Qi asked again.
"My home is in Jiannan..." Shen Shuibi replied subconsciously, and then she suddenly reacted and quickly covered her mouth.
"Jiannan?" Li Qi was stunned. He had never heard of this place name. Is there a place called Jiannan near Lizhou?
He looked at the merchants around him. These people wandered around and bought and sold products. They should know many place names.
But the merchants seemed to be confused and had never heard of it.
Ah Du thought for a while and suddenly said: "I once followed the caravan of big merchants and heard them chatting. I know that there is a place called Jiannan Road in Tang State, but here?"
"Tang State?" Li Qi frowned: "Miss Shen, are you from Tang State?"
"No, no! It should be just a coincidence! I, I... my Jiannan is a small place, very small, it's normal that you haven't heard of it!" Shen Shuibi said hurriedly.
"Then Miss Shen, is the previous demon related to you?"
"No, it's okay!" Shen Shuibi replied immediately!
Now, all the merchants took a step back and took out their hatchets.
Ah Du also hid behind.
Shen Shuibi immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing.
She was about to burst into tears.
She never lied when she was with the Empress!
Now she not only had to lie, but also stuttered, so lame that it could be seen at a glance.
Li Qi, on the other hand, did not turn around, but put his hands behind his back and waved quietly, signaling others to leave quickly.
Then, as if he did not notice the movement behind him at all, he walked up: "Is that so, it's okay, I was scared to death." Li Qi scratched his head and smiled kindly.
"Huh..." Shen Shuibi looked a little confused.
This person... was deceived?
"It's just, sorry, girl, we are all hard-working people, we don't have any skills, we can't send you back to Jiannan, and we are not familiar with the terrain and lack the ability. Otherwise, how about we go our separate ways here?" Li Qi said politely.
Shen Shuibi was delighted when she heard it, and forgot about everything else, and nodded hurriedly.
"Then let's say it this way, we will leave first, girl, I'm afraid you have to go home by yourself." Li Qi said with a kind expression.
"It's nothing, it's nothing! I can go back by myself!" Shen Shuibi said quickly.
"Then let's go our separate ways here. We haven't eaten the rice cakes in the pot. We scooped them into bowls to share. Girl, you can eat first to fill your stomach." Li Qi said again.
"Thank you!" Shen Shuibi bowed her head repeatedly to thank him, having forgotten what frightened her.
After Li Qi finished speaking, he turned around and winked at everyone.
The merchants immediately put their axes in their pockets, carried their backpacks, and ran away without even taking the pot!
Li Qi followed without hesitation, running all the way with Ah Du!
joke! That one behind you is probably a monster!
And she is no different from a human being. She is probably a monster that can change shape. The wild dog monster is 100% related to her!
Although I don’t know what the other person is thinking, but while this monster’s brain is not working well, why don’t you run away quickly and seek death?
While Li Qi stabilized the monster, the group of people ran away again. They had no intention of chatting on the road and hurried on. Since dawn in the morning, they only drank water and had no time to eat. Finally at dusk, they rushed Arrive at Feng County.
Finally arriving in Feng County, everyone can take a breath.
Even Ba Kui gave a thumbs up at this moment. Although he was out of breath from exhaustion, he still praised: "Huh...huh, brother Li Qi, I am convinced! Facing a monster, you How can he be so calm!"
"I didn't expect... Huh, ha... haha." Li Qi was out of breath: "I didn't expect that monster to be so easy to talk to, as if he was a fool... I was also prepared if the other party couldn't pretend to be innocent. , we got up and fought with her! Unexpectedly, she kept pretending, and this was how we got away!"
"Brother Li is still able to keep his composure. He knows that the monster is pretending to be a good person and did not alert the snake and let us run away. If we are exposed, there may be another fight." Adu also said quickly.
