Chapter 65 Putting the Blame on Others
There is no doubt that when Shen Shuibi came out, she immediately attracted the attention of the entire store.
Li Qi never thought that just by changing clothes, changing her hair from messy to combed, and adding an ordinary wooden hairpin, she would change so much.
So, Li Qi quickly paid the money. He originally planned to bargain for the price, but now that this happened, he didn't dare to bargain anymore, and pulled Shen Shuibi out.
"Excuse me, excuse me..." He smiled embarrassedly to the passers-by around him, and pulled Shen Shuibi out who was happy because of the new clothes.
Based on this month's getting along, and understanding of Shen Shuibi, Li Qi dared to bet that she didn't feel the eyes of the outside world at all, and the smile on her face should be pure happiness.
Just like the kind of child who got a new toy.
She was simply happy, but when Li Qi pulled her to the street, the eyes of the people around him almost nailed Li Qi to death.
And Li Qi was unwilling to deprive Shen Shuibi of the joy of changing into new clothes. If he asked her to change back in order to avoid attracting attention...
That would make him look like a waste.
Even if it attracted some attention, he should still be able to protect it.
I don't know where the self-esteem came from, so Li Qi was not as cautious as before, but pulled Shen Shuibi openly and walked out of the city.
Fortunately, Dalu Kingdom is generally regarded as a country with strict laws, although this strictness is only reflected on the surface.
But the strictness on the surface can prevent others from taking action in broad daylight.
As for the night.
In this world, no one will leave the city at night.
Li Qi pulled Shen Shuibi all the way out of the city, walked all the way into the wild, walked into the mountains and forests, and entered the non-human settlements of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
He whistled.
Shen Shuibi covered her ears, trembled all over, twisted constantly, and her expression turned into a mask of pain, blue and purple.
She couldn't stand this sharp sound, maybe this is the price of rabbits' sensitive hearing.
But only this kind of sound can be spread widely.
Soon, a rhythmic sound came, and the old horse neighed in the distance, responding.
Not long after, a handsome horse galloped over, with the wind under its feet and the clouds following it. It rushed to Li Qi at a very fast speed in the forest and rubbed Li Qi with its face.
"Okay, you guys stay here for the night. I'll go buy some other things for outdoor travel, as well as maps. What do you want to eat, old horse? Beans? Oats?" Li Qi said to the old horse.
The old horse neighed and jumped its hooves.
Shen Shuibi began to translate at this time: "He said he wanted oats, preferably with some beets."
"That's a lot of requirements. OK, I'll bring it to you when the time comes." Li Qi patted the horse's back, and then said to Shen Shuibi: "You stay here for a while. With Lao Ma here, nothing should be able to catch up with you. I'll probably be back in the evening. If I can't be back in the evening, I'll definitely be there tomorrow morning. I have to deal with the gold. Oh, give me another bunch of Lao Ma's mane." Li Qi said, cutting a bunch of Lao Ma's mane with a knife, causing Lao Ma to shake his head unhappily.
He always felt that his beautiful mane would be cut off by Li Qi in a while.
"Well, okay, Lao Ma and I will wait for you here." Shen Shuibi nodded.
She has always been so straightforward.
Although she is stupid, she is a ruthless person who can destroy her own body after all.
Li Qi sometimes asks himself, after practicing for hundreds or thousands of years and finally reaching the fifth level, can he easily destroy his body?
It's hard to say, but she is definitely not as relieved as Shen Shuibi.
So far, he has never seen Shen Shuibi become discouraged because of the loss of her gongti. She seems to be in a good mood all the time, and she can quickly adjust herself when she is unhappy occasionally.
It seems that the lost thousand years of cultivation are not hers.
It seems that it is not worth being sad at all for going from a high-ranking immortal to a weak woman who is powerless and has to rely on her own mortal ability to survive.
She is really determined.
Of course, it may also be because she is stupid and does not realize it.
But Li Qi thinks it is unlikely.
Although Shen Shuibi's personality is a bit silly and cute, her bottomless experience and knowledge are visible.
Stupidity does not mean low IQ. How can someone who can remember so many things be a fool?
So Li Qi actually admires Shen Shuibi very much.
After instructing these things, Li Qi packed up the money and gave the luggage to Shen Shuibi for safekeeping.
Then, he went back to the city by himself.
He still had to deal with the gold issue.
The way he thought of to deal with the gold without losing money, taking risks, or putting the blame on others was to use the money for sacrifice.
He was going to be ruthless and spend some money to hold a small sacrifice.
What to sacrifice?
Sacrifice to the earth god he was most familiar with.
In Qinghua Palace, the god of Lishui River.
The earth god he was most familiar with, who participated in the grand sacrifice every year, had been sacrificed to the god of Lishui River three times so far!
————————
“Come on, yes, put it like this.”
“The altar is here, yes, it’s here.”
“Wait a minute, you will be responsible for beating the drum here, just beat this small drum.”
Li Qi arranged some laborers.
He paid these people 10 coins per person to help him set up a small Taoist temple for worshiping the river god.
Including some wood, meat offerings, small paper boats and spices, and the mane of an old horse.
Pure-colored dragon horses, very useful.
These cost Li Qi 2,300 coins in total, including labor.
To be honest, his heart was bleeding.
However, he actually had this plan, but the gold helped him make this decision.
As a priest, he had never held a sacrifice for more than one person, and this time it was a start.
This kind of multi-person sacrifice is the way to really get enough power.
Now Li Qi just thought about the scale of opening the river... and couldn't help trembling.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of people run for the opening of the river, countless rituals, and sacrifices.
How much can the host of the ceremony, that is, the governor of Lizhou, get?
Forget it, don't think about those, just focus on your own sacrifice site.
After preparing these things, Li Qi stepped forward, offered sacrifices, and sent the folded paper boat into the Lishui River.
Among the sacrifices, the gold was included!
Offering gold to the gods is a traditional way of worship. Is there any problem?
Meat, wine, gold, dragon horse mane, everything was done according to the etiquette.
Damn, no matter what disasters or curses this thing has, go find the Lishui God if you have the ability!
Li Qi didn't believe it. Could this thing touch this big guy?
