Chapter 87 Qi Chengfeng's Difficulties
I carried my wife's body to the town and found a witch doctor. Seeing my difficult situation, the witch doctor offered to treat my wife for free. After examining her body, he said that she had been killed by the poisonous talisman water and accused the Beast Temple of deliberately killing people. However, the witch doctor who dared to tell the truth later left. I only know that his surname was Zhou and that he went north and never returned.
Yunzhi was stunned: "Surname Zhou, is it Zhou Feng?"
Uncle Li's eyes widened. "Do you know Doctor Zhou? You came from the north. Have you seen Doctor Zhou? Is Doctor Zhou still alive?"
Yunzhi nodded: "Doctor Zhou is still alive, he is my master."
Uncle Li's face lit up with excitement. "What a coincidence! You're Doctor Zhou's apprentice? Doctor Zhou is my benefactor, and I've never had the chance to repay him. So, you two can stay here as long as you like, until you find work."
Yunzhi and Shen Qi agreed and expressed their gratitude.
Their claim of taking a night off was just an excuse.
Finding Qi Chengfeng here and figuring out the whole story before leaving will take at least two days. It is impossible to leave early tomorrow morning.
"Life isn't easy for you orcs in the north either. In recent years, more and more people have come to the south to work. By the way, do you have children?"
Yunzhi looked a little embarrassed: "Uh, no."
Uncle Li sighed, "It's better if you don't have children. Some people come to work with their families. I've seen many orcs from the north in this town before. They have no place to live and have to sleep on the streets. Their children are unkempt and look like little beggars. It's such a sin."
Shen Qi smiled brightly: "Uncle, don't worry, we won't do such irresponsible things. We will have children only when we make enough money and can provide them with a good environment to grow up."
As he said that, Shen Qi looked at Yun Zhi: "Yun Zhi, right."
Yunzhi gave a perfunctory smile: "Yes, that's what we thought."
Uncle Li said with relief: "That's good."
When it was time for dinner, Uncle Li killed a chicken from the yard to entertain them.
Yunzhi and the others asked Uncle Li not to kill the chicken, but Uncle Li said, "I'm old and my teeth can't bite it anymore. The chicken is just right for you to eat. It's okay. I killed the roosters that don't lay eggs. I still have the chickens that lay eggs."
With that, Uncle Li went into the kitchen and didn't even allow Yunzhi and Shen Qi to come in to help.
"Are you looking down on me, an old man? I need several people to help me cook? Go away, go away, I can handle it by myself."
Yunzhi and Shen Qi had no choice but to come out of the kitchen.
Uncle Li made them chicken stewed with mushroom soup and fried a few vegetarian dishes, a total of four or five dishes.
After Yunzhi and Shenqi had eaten their fill, Uncle Li took them for a walk around the village and introduced them to the situation there.
Yunzhi also knew that there were more than fifty households in the village, and it would take several hours to walk around the entire village.
Along the way, they saw many wolf-orcs, but they didn't see even a trace of Qi Chengfeng.
It is estimated that Qi Chengfeng did not come out of the house.
I don’t know whether he didn’t want to come out on his own or he was locked up by those people and couldn’t come out.
Yunzhi: "Looks like we have to search each household one by one."
Shen Qi nodded: "That's what I planned too."
After returning to the wooden house with Uncle Li, we waited until late at night and Uncle Li fell into a deep sleep.
Yunzhi and Shen Qi quietly came out of the house.
Starting from every household nearby, Shen Qi's wood-related ability reached level seven, and those with lower ability levels than him found it difficult to detect his presence.
Chen Qi entered a room and came out after confirming that Qi Chengfeng was not there.
After peeping into countless households, Yunzhi couldn't help yawning.
Still haven't found Qi Chengfeng.
Chen Qi: "Why don't we go back and rest tonight? We still have to stay here for a few days anyway. Qi Chengfeng is in the village. We can find him anyway."
Yunzhi pointed to the last house in the south and said, "Then let's take a look at this one and then go back."
After saying that, Shen Qi's figure floated in like a gust of wind.
Yunzhi leaned against a big tree waiting for Chen Qi, but she waited and waited, but Chen Qi didn't come out.
Yunzhi was a little worried, wondering if something had happened.
Just then, Chen Qi came out, and Yun Zhi had a look of relief on her face.
However, when Yunzhi saw Qi Chengfeng following behind Shen Qi, her eyes lit up even more.
Qi Chengfeng was stunned when he saw Yunzhi: "Yunzhi, it's you... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to leave."
Yunzhi: "I know. Aya told me that it was your people who took you away. Are you living with them now?"
Qi Chengfeng's expression was complicated: "I am... with them now. Sorry, Yunzhi, I lied to you from the beginning. I am not a born beastman. This is just a temporary identity."
Yun Zhi: "I know everything you said. I just want to see for myself if you are safe and sound. Also, are you staying here voluntarily? If not, you must leave here immediately with Shen Qi and me."
Qi Chengfeng was silent for a moment, as if he had made a difficult decision. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yunzhi, I'm staying here of my own accord, and I don't plan to go back. The partnership contract between you and me will be terminated at dawn tomorrow."
Yunzhi looked at Qi Chengfeng quietly: "Qi Chengfeng, has something happened to you? That's why you want to completely cut off ties with me. Can you please not hide it from me?"
At this point, Yunzhi also understood that Qi Chengfeng was indeed not as honest and loyal as he appeared in front of her.
Yunzhi didn't care. Everyone has multiple sides. As long as Qi Chengfeng treated her sincerely, she wouldn't care.
But now, Qi Chengfeng obviously had his own difficulties, but he was unwilling to tell her and even wanted to push her away.
This made Yunzhi a little sad.
Qi Chengfeng didn't dare to meet Yunzhi's eyes.
Although it was difficult to see clearly in the dark, he always felt that Yunzhi's gaze had burned countless holes in his body.
Chen Qi suddenly spoke up: "Qi Chengfeng learned from his tribe that it was the specific people in the Beast God Temple who killed his parents, so he planned to take revenge alone."
Qi Chengfeng couldn't believe it: "How did you know?"
Chen Qi: "I just received the news too. After knowing your origins, it will be easy to find out the disputes between you and the Beast Temple."
Yunzhi: "Aren't your people all believers in the Beast Temple? Why would they tell you this? I'm afraid there's something fishy going on."
Qi Chengfeng took a deep breath: "They just want to take advantage of the Wolf King bloodline in me."
