Chapter 207 The county magistrate is innate! ?
He Ru walked lightly to Li Qi's side and sat in front of him under everyone's gaze.
Seeing that Li Qi still seemed to be ignoring her, He Ru couldn't help but whispered, "My lord, you seem to be in a good mood. I went to the Six Gates to look for you, but I came back empty-handed. I never thought that you were here drinking and listening to books."
"You can just deliver the files to the Six Gates and go back directly. Why are you looking for me?"
Li Qi said casually, drinking sake by himself.
The alcohol content of wine in ancient times was not high. Although Li Qi had not drunk wine for several lifetimes, he could still drink it.
Moreover, with his current recovery ability from the first stage of the Immortal Heart Sutra, ordinary alcohol and even common drugs would not have much effect on him.
Otherwise, Li Qi, who also smelled the 'Mixiao Pills' that day, would definitely have fainted.
You have to know that he was with Li Qiao and had no time to take the antidote. Before taking the antidote, he relied on his own body metabolism to get through it.
Because there were no particularly delicious drinks in this era, the most common items in stores besides wine were sour plum soup, but the sour plum soup of this era was not very tasty.
So Li Qi also liked drinking on weekdays, and he got acquainted with Zhuifeng, one of the Four Famous Detectives, because of drinking.
Now I have nothing to do, so I am also drinking and eating.
If I continue like this, I might become a wine lover.
Seeing that Li Qi only had eyes for the contents of the cup and didn't even look at her, He Ru couldn't help but sigh:
"I just want to get to know you, sir. How can you be so heartless?"
"No thanks, I'm not in the mood for fun."
"It seems that my lord, you really don't like women anymore."
He Ru smiled, but there was a hint of helplessness in her smile. Her eyes rolled around under her bamboo hat, and after a while she changed the subject:
"Well, since you dislike me, I will leave on my own later...but..."
He Ru looked at Li Qi meaningfully: "…But this method that can help you improve your martial arts, I can't teach you."
As she said this, she got up and left.
And he had already stood up and walked out.
But after taking two steps, she saw that Li Qi remained unmoved, as if he had not heard what she had just said.
Seeing this, even though He Ru was in a good mood, she couldn't hold it anymore.
The corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and she immediately turned around and walked back to Li Qi, asking with a slightly complaining tone:
"Sir, are you really not curious?"
"Not curious."
Li Qi answered bluntly, which made He Ru stunned again.
The temperament and form that had been cultivated for a long time could no longer be maintained. He Ru took a deep breath and exhaled deeply several times before she said helplessly:
"What people in this world want is nothing more than money, sex, power, and strength. My lord, you are not greedy for money, you are not lustful, and you don't seem to want power either. You should ask for some of the remaining 'power', right? Or are you really so pure and inactive?"
Hearing this, Li Qi laughed: "Of course I want money, beauty and power, but I know that you, Miss Heru, are not a delicate little woman. There are some things that I am worried that I may not be able to enjoy even if I get them."
"It turns out that the master is afraid of me."
He Ru seemed to understand something and chuckled.
Li Qi's expression remained unchanged, and he continued drinking:
"Whatever you think."
He Ru approached him with bad intentions. Although Li Qi wanted to investigate her, he couldn't really get close to her like a sex-hungry ghost.
A dog licker won’t get any useful information, so the only way is to find a way to create a new persona and let He Ru approach him actively.
Now it seems that the fish has taken the bite.
Li Qi didn't look at He Ru on the surface, but he was paying attention to He Ru's movements in his heart.
He Ru looked around and stopped acting so charmingly. She became a little more normal and said to Li Qi:
"You don't have to be so vigilant, sir. Although I am the county magistrate's maid, the relationship between me and the county magistrate is not what you imagine."
"Oh, what's that?"
"This is not a place for confidential discussions. If you know, why don't we wait until we are back at the Six Gates, when we are alone, and then I can discuss this with you in detail?"
Li Qi said nothing. He picked up a few peanuts with chopsticks and put them in his mouth. Then he continued to drink silently, as if he was not in a hurry at all.
He Ru was also not in a hurry. She sat opposite Li Qi and waited patiently for his reply.
He Ru, who was born in a brothel, has seen all kinds of people. If she didn't even have the patience to wait, she would not be able to become the most popular courtesan.
The two of them just ate and drank while the other watched, and they were silent for a long time.
There was a noisy sound and the conversations of the gangsters in my ears.
There is a mixed crowd in the underworld. There are all kinds of people, and they dare to say anything, and the topics are very diverse.
Just now they were discussing the six major sects and the current imperial court, and in the blink of an eye, they started discussing the top five lists in the world today.
The Five Greatest Lists of the World is a list that records the rankings of all the great masters, rare objects, beauties, etc. in the martial arts world.
The list is produced by a special agency under the imperial court, which has absolute authority and therefore often causes discussion among people in the world.
Although they are called the Five Best Lists in the World, there are actually more than ten kinds of lists. They are only called the Five Best Lists in the World because those are the main ones discussed.
The five major rankings in the world are the 'Heavenly Ranking' which records the ranking of masters, the 'Earthly Ranking' which records the ranking of innate masters, and the 'Human Ranking' which records the ranking of acquired new talents.
The remaining one is the "Strange Weapons List" also known as the "Strange Weapons Chart" which records all the magical weapons and objects in the world.
The 'Jianghu Beauty List' which records beauties from all over the world is also the list that these rough guys like to talk about the most.
Now they are talking about this list, mainly talking about the top beauty on the list who is known as the most beautiful woman in the world this time.
"Tsk tsk, this beauty list is really getting worse with each generation. The top of this generation's beauty list is actually a man!"
Someone said in amazement.
Since it is called the Beauty List, rather than "beauties" or "fairies", the people on the list are of course not limited to men, women, young or old, as long as they are worthy of the title of "beauty", they can be on the list.
And the most beautiful woman in the world today is a man.
He is the adopted son of the master of Xihua Palace of one of the six major sects. It is said that he has an androgynous appearance and is as handsome as an immortal.
Xihua Palace is a sect that respects women. Most of the sect members are women, and men are rarely seen. Therefore, as soon as the son of the Xihua Palace master appeared in the world, he aroused discussion among people.
What kind of man could be hailed as the most handsome man in the world? And what kind of man could make the Palace Master of Xihua Palace break the palace rules and adopt him as her son?
These are things that make people in the world extremely curious.
The people on the other side talked about the first place on the list and the tenth place on the list.
Li Qi was only ranked eleventh on the list, and he was a man, so he naturally could not become the subject of their discussion.
He Ru was also listening. When she mentioned the number one beauty, Li Qi could hear the sound of her swallowing saliva from under her hat.
At the same time, she was heard mumbling to herself: "The most beautiful woman in the world, if I could spend a night with such a person, it would be worth it even if I died..."
“…”
Hearing this, Li Qi's mouth twitched and he subconsciously touched the human skin mask on his face.
It seems that He Ru is a female pervert. Fortunately, he is wearing a mask, otherwise He Ru would pounce on him directly.
"Ahem, Miss Heru, let's go back to the Six Gates first."
With a dry cough to remind the woman in front of him, Li Qi slapped the coins on the table, stood up and left.
He Ru wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of her mouth, stood up and followed Li Qi.
She walked a few steps faster and stood side by side with Li Qi, and asked with a smile:
"What's the matter? Did I make you jealous by talking about someone else?"
“…”
Li Qi didn't say anything, just glanced at her with cold eyes.
He Ru's smile froze, and she said helplessly: "…It was just a joke, why are you looking so fierce, sir? Forget it, I won't say anything."
He Ru didn't say anything, and Li Qi's ears finally felt a little quieter.
The two of them left the inn in silence and returned to the Liushenmen government office.
After entering the government office, Li Qi took He Ru straight to the study.
After entering the study, Li Qi sat directly in the main seat and said to He Ru: "Just tell me, what exactly do you want to do with me?"
Li Qi went straight to the point. He Ru took off her hat and looked at Li Qi without blinking.
After watching for a while, He Ru said:
"To be honest, I fell in love with you at first sight and want to spend a good night with you..."
"..." Li Qi's eyes turned unfriendly again.
Before Li Qi was about to lose his temper, He Ru said:
"But it seems that you, my lord, do not like a woman like me who comes from a prostitute's family, so I have no choice but to find another way to please you, my lord."
"It's not easy to win the favor of this official."
"I can see that you are really alert, sir. You are worthy of being the patrol envoy of the Six Gates."
He Ru complimented Li Qi again during her conversation, and after smiling, she continued:
"But you don't have to be so vigilant, my lord. I really want to be attached to you, my lord, so I want to pass on this method of becoming stronger to you, my lord."
"Heh, a mere woman from a brothel actually has the ability to make others stronger? Are you trying to deceive me?"
Li Qi looked unfriendly.
He Ru said there was a way to make Li Qi stronger, but he didn't believe it.
But if He Ru said that she had a method of replenishing the body, such as replenishing yin with yang, Li Qi would be able to believe it to some extent.
By the way, this can’t really be He Ru’s method, right?
Li Qi was suspicious, while He Ru smiled softly and said:
"Don't disbelieve me, sir. You should know about Magistrate Qian's affairs, right?"
He Ru suddenly mentioned Magistrate Qian, which made Li Qi a little confused: "I know a little bit, what's wrong with that?"
"Then you should know that County Magistrate Qian was just a weak scholar before this."
"Indeed."
County Magistrate Qian was an official who came to office through normal imperial examinations. He studied the Four Books and Five Classics for more than ten years before he earned the title of county magistrate.
I have no martial arts skills.
He Ru said, "Then, sir, do you know what the current martial arts level of County Magistrate Qian is?"
“…”
Before Li Qi could answer, He Ru said, "It's innate."
"!?"
"Your Excellency, there is no need to be surprised. Everything I said is true. County Magistrate Qian did not attend the banquet today, not because he overslept, but because he had just ascended to the Xiantian realm, his internal energy was unstable, and he was consolidating his cultivation."
Ho-ru explained.
Hearing her say this, Li Qi suddenly remembered what Zhong Bo once said, that there was a congenital master in the county government.
At that time, Li Qi thought that this was an expert hired by the county magistrate to protect himself.
Who would have thought that this expert was actually the county magistrate himself? !
He is actually congenital! ?
I have to go on a long trip these days, so of course, the update time is stable, but there is definitely no way to add more updates...
Don't worry, there will definitely be updates every day, but there may be two days with fewer words... Well, it's just a possibility.
above.
Love you guys~＾3＾
