Chapter 33 Deception
In the dark night.
on the street.
Two people.
Li Qi and Shen Shuibi looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you.
Li Qi looked confused. He was still waiting for Mr. Zhu to introduce him, and then he could introduce himself. Let both of them get to know each other before they can get on their way!
What happened to this new boss? He came over and asked a few questions, then threw people here and left? !
This boss is a bit irresponsible... Or is he not the only person looking for Empress Luofu? Is he still busy getting other spare tires?
No, maybe I am the spare tire.
However, it was not only Li Qi but also Shen Shuibi who looked confused.
The rabbit demon's mind was filled with doubts, and he even forgot about his previous wariness and disgust.
ah? This annoying big wish is just gone?
Just leave yourself and the equally annoying Xiao Zhu to find your empress?
Will he follow me?
These wishers are very insidious. I heard that there are some magical things up and down the Wushen Mountain.
It is relatively normal to wish people good wishes. Generally, people wish others the best when communicating with others.
Those divination people are even more crazy. I heard that they are mumbling words every day, using divination techniques to plot against others and themselves. They don't even explain clearly what they say, and they all rely on others to guess what they mean.
In addition to these two major categories, other types of witches are all insane in legends. They are all the kind of witches who dance with gods. Some of them always talk to the air, which is very difficult to understand.
Shen Shuibi's mind was full of doubts.
However, Li Qi reacted faster. He took a step forward and said, "Miss Shen, do you still remember me? We met during the day today."
"I know, you are the little witch who secretly came to catch me!" Shen Shuibi said with a wary look.
She looked Li Qi up and down, carefully examining every detail on his body.
The skin is brown and black, and should be exposed to the sun frequently. It is also a bit rough and not delicate. You can tell at a glance that he is a person of the lower class. He must have done rough work before.
The clothes... were also very shoddy. They were all made of linen. They were worn everywhere and had frayed places. But it was probably because there were no women to help, so there was not even a patch, and no one repaired the holes.
It felt so pitiful when I saw it.
As for his face... he is pretty good-looking, with a heroic air and looks very upright and sincere.
Pooh! How can this little witch be upright? He is full of tricks and calculations. Listening to the conversation between him and the big witch, he must be that kind of treacherous villain.
Li Qi felt that the other party was looking at him.
So he straightened his back and spoke righteously: "Isn't it just a coincidence that we met last time? Miss Shen, you were trapped by the demon, or we rescued you. After I met you, I also released you Now that I'm gone, how can I say that I'm here to arrest you? Do you think you can slander me just because you have a high status?"
"But after you were here last time, that Da Zhu came and took me away!" Shen Shuibi said aggrievedly and a little angry.
"How can a pawn like me know what Da Zhu is doing?" Li Qi smiled bitterly: "Actually, I'm just like you, I'm still confused!"
After Li Qi said this, he put his position in line with Shen Shuibi's.
But before Shen Shuibi could react, he immediately said, "It's just, Miss Shen, I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing."
"Why isn't it a bad thing? You guys clearly have plans for the empress!" Shen Shuibi said angrily.
He has plans for the empress... Why does it sound so weird? Li Qi couldn't help but cursed.
But he knew how to deceive people, so he immediately followed the topic: "Empress Luofu was persecuted by the Tang Dynasty. Miss Shen must also know about it, right?"
When this topic came up, Shen Shuibi stopped talking, and her expression became visibly depressed.
This woman... is really single-threaded and single-minded.
But this is not bad, after all, it is easy to cheat.
Li Qi thought about it but kept talking: "We at Wushen Mountain have the same position as Empress Luofu. We are both enemies of the Tang State."
He has now said "our Wushen Mountain". Although Li Qi actually doesn't know what Wushen Mountain is, his thighs are thighs, so it's better to hold them tightly.
"Since we have a common enemy, you must also know that the enemy of the enemy is a friend. Wu Shenshan went to Luofu Empress purely out of a desire to cooperate. In order to reassure the empress, they even let a pawn like me act as a messenger. , This will not pose a threat to the empress, and since I am a heretic and cannot confirm the location through divination, it can also reassure the empress, because it is impossible to track the Luofu empress by tracking me. "
"With so many reassuring measures, don't they still show sincerity?" Li Qi said sincerely.
Is it really sincere?
Of course it's impossible, it's all nonsense. If he really wants to do something, Li Qi believes that there are 10,000 ways to get around it in Wushen Mountain.
But...
For people who are not very smart, it is easy to win people's trust by adding a bunch of reasons, reasons, and a sincere tone at the end.
It can be seen that Shen Shuibi was indeed moved.
Because it seems... what Li Qi said, uh, maybe, should, maybe, probably... seems to make sense?
Seeing that Shen Shuibi was confused, Li Qi struck while the iron was hot and took out a willow branch: "Miss Shen, take a look at this. I have a low status and have never been exposed to any magic weapons or anything like that. I don't know what the young master gave me. , you come from the side of Empress Luofu, you must know it!"
Shen Shuibi was still thinking, but when she was suddenly interrupted, she subconsciously turned her attention to the willow branch.
Under Li Qi's sincere eyes and pleading, she seemed to be unable to refuse...
So, she replied: "Well, this should be a willow branch infused with the spirit of the earth. It can ward off evil spirits, has the effect of binding, and can also whip evil spirits."
"There is a book record...'On the first day of the first lunar month, take a willow branch and put it on the door, and all ghosts will not enter the house.' I heard the empress said that there is a treasure in Tianzhu called the Jade Pure Vase, and a willow branch is inserted in it, so the willow branch is a way to ward off evil spirits. After being poured into the earth's divine energy, the power of the thing is doubled, and it is estimated that it can even kill people, but it is just like that, and it is not even qualified to be placed in the queen's vase." After saying this, Shen Shuibi became a little proud.
"I see, Miss Shen is indeed well-informed." Li Qi really didn't know this, so he praised from the bottom of his heart.
"Humph!" Shen Shuibi had been fleeing for too long, and it seemed that she was finally praised, so she puffed up her chest and felt proud.
"Then let's find a place to rest first. Miss Shen, please tell me more and give me some insights. Please look after me on the road in the future," Li Qi said.
"That's natural." Shen Shuibi responded politely.
However, she was completely unaware of it.
In fact, she had not agreed to go on the road with Li Qi before.
