Chapter 25 The Lost Bird

Li Qi calmed himself down, looked away from the torn chair, raised four fingers, and said with a flattering look on his face: "I swear, I promise to answer everything I know!"

After swallowing a sip of saliva, Li Qi said: "The first question is, I know nothing about Jueqing Palace! I just heard these three words tonight. The second question is, who do I not work for, but who do I really do for?

When it comes to doing things, I do things for whomever gives me money."

"As for the third one, I've told you before that I don't want to come to Jincheng either..."

After saying that, he stared at Lu Jinshuang's expressionless face, fearing that this woman would immediately kill someone and silence her.

Zhang Chuang, Zhang Chuang, this guard of yours is really not doing your job at all!

Since you are here, why don't you wait to leave with me?

Although I don’t pay your salary on weekdays, I still treat you well...

Lu Jinshuang stared into Li Qi's eyes, and the sound of pin drop could be heard in the room. She seemed to want to see something from his eyes.

After nearly a minute, Lu Jinshuang looked away from Li Qi: "If it is true as you said, it is not impossible for me to let you go, but you already know my true identity..."

"I will never tell anyone else! I swear!" Li Qi said quickly.

"How can I trust you?"

Li Qisi thought for a moment and said, "Now that Cuihong Mansion has become my property, you can be the shopkeeper there and we can see each other often. If you find out that I have leaked the news, you can do whatever you want."

Lu Jinshuang smiled slightly and said, "Since you said so, that's all it can do."

In fact, Lu Jinshuang did not completely believe in Li Qi, she was just afraid of the guard around Li Qi.

The last time I visited Li Qi's residence at night, I was almost left behind by the guard.

That time she knew that the other party didn't want to hurt her, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to dodge the flying knife.

Since someone let me go last time, I naturally have to show off my face this time.

In addition to this, Lu Jinshuang also felt that Li Qi was very smart and might be able to help him retrieve the sacred object.

"Master Li just said that as long as anyone gives you money, you will do things for them. Do you really mean this?"

"Seriously! I am a businessman and I just want to make money..."

"Okay!" Lu Jinshuang said with a slight smile, "I want to make a deal with Mr. Li, is it possible?"

"What deal?" Li Qi glanced at her suspiciously.

What does this woman want to do?

"I'm looking for someone in Jincheng."

"Who?"

"This man is elusive and elusive. He is known as the Earth Mouse and is good at disguise. Now that the road is blocked by heavy snow, this man has not left Jincheng. I have tried every means but can't find any trace of him. If Mr. Li can help me find this man,

I will definitely give you a hundred taels of gold as a token of my gratitude."

Li Qi felt a little bitter in his heart. When he heard that the mouse with that nickname was not simple, he was also good at disguise, and maybe he was also very good at martial arts.

I have just arrived in Jincheng, and I am not familiar with the place. Besides, I am not from the Jianghu community. Where can I find it for you?

"Can you provide some clues?" Li Qi asked with a grimace.

Lu Jinshuang's mouth was filled with elixirs, and the corners of her mouth were raised: "It seems that Mr. Li has agreed to do this deal with me?"

I really want to refuse, but is it my choice?

Li Qi nodded and forced a smile: "I said, I'm a businessman, I don't want to be a bastard if I have money."

"Well, since Mr. Li has agreed, I will tell you the clues."

Lu Jinshuang pretended to think, frowned slightly, and said after a moment: "This person is six feet tall, has a stooped back, is over forty years old, often haunts romantic places, is good at changing his appearance, changing his voice, and possesses the art of earth escape."

Six feet? According to the feet of this era, it is about one and a half meters?

A stooped back means a hunchback?

At the age of forty, he still likes to go to brothels and is good at disguises and voice changes...

What the hell is that Earth Escape?

Could it be that that guy ran away from Iwagakure Village?

"Besides his nickname, does he have any other names?" Li Qi asked.

Lu Jinshuang shook his head: "No one knows his real name."

"Then I can ask you weakly, what do you do with him?"

As soon as Li Qi said these words, a cold light flashed in Lu Jinshuang's eyes, making his whole body tremble.

"There are some things that Young Master Li should not ask. As long as you help me find this person, in addition to the reward, our grudges will also be wiped out."

Li Qi nodded and smiled: "I understand, I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely help you find this person."



When Li Qi came out of the yard, he breathed a sigh of relief.

If I had known that there would be so much trouble in Jincheng, I wouldn't have said anything at the beginning...

It’s a pity that it’s already here, so what can we do?

Now I can only help Marmot check the account first, and then think about how to find someone.

But we really can’t put off learning martial arts any longer. Not to mention learning the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, but we also have to learn Lingbo Weibu and the like, right?

As the saying goes, if you can't fight, run away, be smart and have a head.

Turning left and right, when Li Qi emerged from the alley, he found that he was lost!

Look at the street again. Is there any human figure at this time?

Isn’t that the night life we ​​promised?

Where have they all gone?

Shrinking his neck, he put his hands into his sleeves, stepped on the dark ice and snow on the ground, and looking for a direction, Li Qi quickened his pace.



Early the next morning, when Tu Boshu came to look for Li Qi, he found that there was no one in the house. He went to look for Xiao Man but could not find him.

Finally, one of the doorkeepers told Tu Boshu that Li Qi had not come back since he had gone out last night.

Tu Boshu was a little worried, and when he was about to go out to find someone, he saw Li Qi walking towards the escort agency while sneezing and shaking.

"Brother Li, where have you been?"

Li Qi raised his eyes and looked at her: "Cold...cold..."

As he said that, he walked into the escort agency without saying a word, then returned to the room and got into bed without saying a word.

When Tu Boshu came over, he only heard Li Qi suddenly say: "I want to be quiet... I'll talk about it later if I have anything to do."

"Quietly?"

Tu Boshu was a little puzzled, wondering who Jingjing was?

One night! Li Qi spent a whole night wandering around Jincheng and couldn't find his way back. Can you believe it?

The main reason is that the buildings of this era were all built the same and there were no signposts.

Not only that, but there are so many alleys, it feels like a maze once you enter, plus it’s dark at night and you can’t see the road...

If Li Qi hadn't used the oldest method of piling snow on the ground to mark it, he might not have been able to find his way back at dawn.

Of course, after he returned to Fuyun Escort Agency, many Jincheng people discovered the snowdrifts on the road early in the morning...

Suddenly, a shocking legend came one after another: ghosts piled snow in the middle of the night, aggrieved and avenged, easily insoluble, and really difficult to solve...
