After a night of running around, the group of people breathed a sigh of relief when they arrived at the northern border.
Although there are two masters, Zhang Chuang and Tang Yun, there are so many people in Longhu Village that if there is a head-on conflict, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents.
Li Qi had already considered this, so he avoided a head-on conflict with Longhu Village.
In the carriage, Li Qi and Tang Yun were sitting side by side, and opposite them was Ye E.
This woman hasn't spoken much since she came out of Longhu Village.
She also asked about Wang Sanduo's situation. When she learned about Wang Sanduo's death, she was in a very low mood.
"Miss Ye, what's your relationship with Brother Wang?" Li Qi asked.
Ye E looked up at Li Qi and said, "He is my sworn brother."
Li Qi nodded: "That's it."
"How did you meet my eldest brother?"
"Brother Wang helped me once in Jincheng."
"Jincheng?"
"kindness."
Ye E nodded and became silent.
"How did you get caught in Longhu Village?" Li Qi asked.
Ye E thought for a moment and then started to talk about the reason.
It turns out that she is Wang Sanduo's middleman. To put it bluntly, she is the person who helps Wang Sanduo take over business.
Over the years, many people who needed to steal something would find Ye E, and then they would agree on a price, and then she would give the task to Wang Sanduo to carry out.
The two have always worked well together, and they have also set a rule for themselves: if something threatens their lives, they cannot take risks even if they refund the money.
This is also the reason why when Wang Sanduo met Li Qi in Jincheng, he felt threatened by Zhang Chuang and gave the sacred object to Li Qi.
With this code, they have never had any problems.
And just some time ago, they took on a mission to steal a letter.
That is the letter Wang Sanduo sent to Li Qi.
This letter was sent to Longhu Village, but it was stolen by Wang Sanduo on the way.
I don’t know who leaked the news, saying that Wang Sanduo did it, so the people from Longhu Village went to trouble Wang Sanduo.
What happened next was that Wang Sanduo was seriously injured and escaped, while Ye E was kidnapped.
After hearing what happened, Li Qi couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Wang asked me to rescue you before he died... I have fulfilled his last wish. I wonder what Miss Ye has planned next?"
Ye E glanced at Li Qi and said: "Thank you Mr. Li for your generous rescue. Now that the third brother is gone, I don't know where I will go next..."
"Do you have any relatives or friends?" Li Qi asked.
Ye E shook her head.
"Master Li wants to drive me away, right?"
Li Qi was stunned: "I didn't mean that."
"I don't hide it from Mr. Li. I have been an orphan since I was a child. When the third brother was still alive, we brothers and sisters have always been dependent on each other. Now that he is dead..."
As she spoke, Ye E took a deep breath and said, "If Mr. Li feels that I am a burden, it doesn't matter if you come to a resting place ahead, just put me down."
Because Ye E had a large red birthmark on her face, which was a bit scary, it was hard for Li Qi to stare at her.
"Miss Ye, that's not what I meant. Let me tell you the truth. I have to rush to Yujian Villa to report the news."
"Report?"
"Yes, the young owner of Yujian Villa and I are friends. I have also read the letter that Brother Wang stole. Naturally, I cannot just sit idly by and ignore this matter."
"I see. Then Mr. Li is worried about my safety?" Ye E asked.
Li Qi smiled reluctantly and nodded: "Not bad..."
Ye E raised her head and glanced at Tang Yun, who was sitting silently aside, and then looked at Li Qi: "Master Li has such a beautiful woman by his side, why are you still worried about an ugly man like me?"
"What does this have to do with beauty and ugliness?" Li Qi was a little confused.
Although he did think this Ye E was ugly, he was not the kind of person to judge people by their appearance.
He really felt that he didn't know what would happen when he went to Yujian Villa this time. If he brought a weak woman there again, who knew if he would cause any trouble.
Just like Su Yingxiong, Li Qi now feels that he is a burden.
"Master Li is not only my brother's friend, but also my benefactor...I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. If Master Li is willing to take me in, I will not be afraid of swords and fire," Ye E said.
Li Qi glanced at Tang Yun who was standing aside, as if he wanted to ask for her opinion.
I saw Tang Yun say: "Sir, Miss Ye is also a pitiful person. I think you should take her in."
"Okay, Miss Ye, just follow me first. After I finish going to Jade Sword Villa, I have to go to Kyoto. If you have any plans after arriving in Kyoto, just tell me." Li Qi said.
"Thank you, Mr. Li." Ye E said gratefully.
"It's okay. From now on, everyone is on our own, so there's no need to be so polite." Li Qi said with a smile.
After two days of traveling, the horses were really exhausted. If they continued on the road, they would probably die suddenly.
So everyone found a place to rest for a day in the wild, where they could rest their horses and do some activities.
I have to say that the air and scenery in this era are really good. No matter where you go, there is no pollution and everything is so clean.
Li Qi lay under the shade of a tree, crossed his legs over Su Yingxiong's body, and let him massage him. He felt relaxed and content.
"Brother Li, how is your strength?"
"It's okay."
"Brother Li, if you didn't know this before, I thought you didn't care about me...it scared me to death..."
Li Qi thought to himself: To be honest, I really didn't want to care about you at that time.
If it weren't for the fact that you, a fat guy like you, are still smart, I would have left long ago.
"How could it be? Why do you call me brother so many times? As a big brother, you must be loyal." Li Qi said shamelessly.
Su Yingxiong said with a righteous expression: "Brother Li, he is the most loyal person Su Yingxiong has ever seen since he was a child..."
"Absolutely so." Li Qi smiled and said.
Just as the two of them were saying this, a scream suddenly came from not far away, and the voice clearly belonged to Tang Yun.
Li Qi rolled over and got up, ready to run over to see what happened.
I originally thought of letting Su Yingxiong play as the forward, but who knew when I turned around, this damn fat guy had gone to nowhere...
Grandma, do you dare to run any faster?
Zhang Chuang and Xiao Man went to play game and haven't come back yet. What if something happens to Tang Yun again?
Li Qi held the Shadowless Needle in his hand and ran towards the place where Tang Yun screamed.
Passing through a bush, he soon heard the sound of water. When Li Qi passed by, he saw a stream not far away, and in the stream there were two white figures...
