Chapter 79 Learning

"Don't panic, I'm not blaming you, but I heard a rumor recently." Li Qi said.

After speaking, he comforted Lao Ma and told him what he had encountered in the past two days, focusing on the matter about General Songguo.

After speaking, Lao Ma calmed down instead.

He snorted twice.

Then, Shen Shuibi translated: "Lao Ma said that it wasn't him."

"Ah?" Li Qi was stunned.

————————————

Dalu Kingdom, Lizhou, Yi County, Wang Yuanwai's home.

Li Qi came here alone to discuss the next step.

Li Qi coughed twice: "Ahem, it's probably a misunderstanding, so I probably don't need you to smear yourself with blood."

After speaking, Li Qi glanced at Old Lady Wang.

The fact that Lao Ma is not Longju's shadow...

Does she know?

Know, right?

She is a fortune teller, although she has not entered the rank.

But Li Qi himself has not entered the rank.

However, he already knows that even if a fortune teller is not in the rank, he can have all kinds of strange magical powers, so he dare not underestimate him at all.

On the contrary, martial arts...

It seems that there is nothing else powerful except fighting.

But it is powerful enough. Niulishu only gives him 6,000 jin of strength, but after the ninth level of martial arts, he can easily lift a boulder of more than 20,000 jin with his body, and the carp flow burst can temporarily double his strength.

It can only be said that the two sides have different focuses. Martial arts is really a path of pure pursuit of combat effectiveness, but Zhuren is not like that. Combat effectiveness is only auxiliary, and the most important thing is functionality.

As for the divination, Li Qi has heard of it. This path is not strong in combat power, but there are many strange techniques, so Li Qi dare not underestimate Old Lady Wang.

So, Li Qi said, "Old man, since you don't need to pay with blood to erase the cause and effect clues of Lao Ma, can I change this reward?"

Li Qi asked this, and Old Lady Wang nodded immediately. She immediately said, "Of course, Senior Brother, please ask me any request, and I will do my best to meet it."

"It's not that strange, I just want to ask, how did you locate us? That's why I was deceived by you." Li Qi asked.

Speaking of being deceived, Old Lady Wang suddenly panicked.

Speaking of this topic, Li Qi's expression was also solemn: "Excuse me, old man, I am responsible for the task of great blessing. If you are not satisfied with what you say, although I have solved the contradiction between humans and ghosts and saved you from the evil ghosts, if you can't say it, I may have to kill you."

When Old Lady Wang heard the word "great blessing", her body obviously stiffened.

For people from Wushen Mountain, the repressive power of these two words, great blessing and great divination, is unquestionable.

She immediately bowed: "Stupid woman deserves death... I have concealed something before, I hope you won't blame me..."

"I know you have concealed something, but everyone has their own difficulties, so I won't ask about the previous things, I just hope you can tell me how you located me." Li Qi waved his hand, seemingly relaxed, but his eyes were fixed on Old Lady Wang.

Old Lady Wang knelt down solemnly with fear on her face: "Senior brother, please understand, although I am a stupid woman, I will never dare to delay the matter of the great blessing. In fact... I don't know where you are at all."

"Senior brother has a high level of cultivation, and my divination skills can't locate you at all, so... I, a stupid woman, used a stupid method."

"It's not difficult to say, in fact, that gold... I just used a little magic, it only has its shape, but not its spirit, and it can't be blamed at all, but if there are disciples of Wushen Mountain or people who know the goods, they can be sure that they can detect that the gold may have a spell, and then they will naturally come to the door... I have already sent out 35 pieces of such gold." Old Lady Wang said so.

"As long as I see someone coming from the wild, who can fight wild beasts alone, or who has visions, I will let my son give one..." The old woman touched her forehead to the ground and explained carefully.

After listening, Li Qi looked up and was speechless.

Damn, I underestimated the heroes of the world.

Who would have thought that a blind old woman in a small county town in the countryside would have such a way of fishing.

However, it should be true.

My heart hurts...

That one dime of gold is worth a thousand coins.

"Then, how did you confirm my dragon colt and my whereabouts? And even answer the question about the saber?" Li Qi asked again.

"I dare not hide it from my senior brother. I learned a method of 'Mirror Flower Water Moon' in Wushen Mountain, which allowed me to spy on my senior brother from a distance... Then I saw the military spirit on the long sword, and then I guessed some things and bluffed my senior brother... I didn't expect that I was right... As for the saber, it was true, and the matter of the dragon colt leaving a picture was also true..." said the old woman Wang.

Li Qi really didn't know what to say now.

Li Qi took this incident to heart and took it as a learning experience.

Well, every failure is a lesson.

However, he did not intend to pursue responsibility, but said to Mrs. Wang: "... Then let it be, this knife, I will give it to you to erase the traces of cause and effect, I will help your family solve the last matter, and then, your Wang family will be safe."

"Thank you, senior brother!" Mrs. Wang kowtowed repeatedly.

Li Qi did not stop him, leaving the long knife to let him cast a spell, and he went to complete the final sacrificial ceremony, offering Wuqi and Mingshui, so that he could repay the Yin Qi.

Wuqi is five kinds of finely chopped cold meat dishes.

Mingshui is water that has been blessed by Zhuren, and is water that Zhuren has nurtured with the temperature of his body.

Holding the ceremony, he also drew out the air in the tomb, received the blessing of the ghost, and continued to seal the tomb.

After all this was done, the causal clues on the long knife had been erased.

Li Qi did not let Old Lady Wang die, but still took the twenty gold from the Wang family.

Afterwards, he did not stop, bought some luggage, rode on the old horse, and rode away non-stop.

On the way, Shen Shuibi hugged his waist tightly to prevent him from falling off. As the old horse galloped, he suddenly asked: "Li Qi, is this the end of the matter? It seems a bit unlike you?"

"Why is it not like me?" Li Qi asked back.

"Well, I always feel that in order to avoid risks, you should kill the mouth directly and then leave." Shen Shuibi said.

Li Qi laughed when he heard this.

"If I were still the me who just came out of Lizhou City, I would definitely kill the mouth without hesitation to prevent any possible risks." Li Qi explained to Shen Shuibi.

"But things are different now." Li Qi suddenly lowered his voice.

"I'm not an executioner, nor a desperado. I'm a person who pursues the path. My goal is to climb the path and see more scenery, not to be as cautious as a mouse!" Li Qi raised his head and said, looking very confident.

"Oh, Li Qi, you think they are not a threat, right?" Shen Shuibi replied with her head tilted.

"Ahem, you make me look very..." Li Qi was a little embarrassed. The rabbit's sharpness always makes people unhappy at this time.

"I'm not saying you are arrogant." Shen Shuibi counted on her fingers: "Isn't this based on your heart? You don't want to kill people, so you would rather take some risks, right?"
