Chapter 6 Picked up a girl
A crowd gathered on Yilong Town's side streets, the scorching summer heat failing to dampen their appetite for the spectacle. They were puzzled as to why the warriors, merely seeking to purchase the Kuyi ointment, would be willing to help Li Wudao.
"Not only the bitter ointment, I also need the dragon snake grass!" The warrior had a beard and was neither standing nor sitting at the moment. He looked a little honest, and at the same time, there was a strong expectation in his eyes.
Li Wudao watched and laughed secretly. In the past, the warrior had spoken rudely to him, but now he was as reserved as a student when he needed help from him.
It seems that the poisoned person is very important to the warrior!
The bitter ointment made from bitter grass is originally a poison-removing substance. Now the warriors also need the dragon snake grass, which is the best medicine to cure snake venom.
Dragon Snake Grass is easy to obtain, but it is difficult to use. It must be specially made into Dragon Snake Pills to achieve the best effect.
If it were in the past, Li Wudao would definitely not know because he was not well-versed in martial arts. But now that he has awakened the memories of his past life, even if a strong man leaks a little, it will be enough for him to enjoy endlessly.
In the warriors' expectant eyes, Li Wudao nodded slightly, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by the excited warriors.
"Good! Good! If you can make the Dragon Snake Pill, my life, Luo Yuan, will be yours!" Luo Yuan was extremely excited, with tears even flowing in his eyes.
He immediately apologized to Li Wudao, saying that he had failed to recognize the great man and had even mocked Ge Ren as a straw dog.
This action once again caused an uproar, and the crowd watching the show was completely boiling!
The warrior, who was so high and mighty, actually apologized to Li Wudao, a mere commoner. To people, it was like a dream.
Finally, Li Wudao made the Kuyi Paste, and Luo Yuan left happily with it. Three days later, he brought the Dragon Snake Grass and asked Li Wudao to make Dragon Snake Pills.
"Xiao Li is really good! He actually has such a method!"
"This is the high and mighty warrior master!"
"How awesome it would be if I could befriend a warrior!"
Li Wudao watched the people chatting and talking on the side streets, feeling a surge of emotion. This world, which valued strength and power, had failed to notice his extraordinary qualities.
Luo Yuan's respect for Li Wudao all stems from the Dragon Snake Pills. If Li Wudao can't make the Dragon Snake Pills, what will Luo Yuan do? It's very likely that blood will be splattered!
With the Kuyi grass out of his hands, Li Wudao's mission for the day was complete. Although he didn't completely eliminate the ruffians, he had deterred them with Luo Yuan's help, and he thought he could finally have some peace and quiet.
Li Wudao covered the thatched mat under his butt and packed up his stall and left.
There was a constant flow of people on the auxiliary streets of Yilong Town, like a vast ocean. The waves just caused by the warriors quickly subsided, and the order of the flow of people returned again.
Li Wudao walked on the auxiliary street again, but this time there was a little more fear in people's eyes. After all, he was a man with the support of a warrior.
There are many houses for sale on the auxiliary street, which can be used as storefronts or residences.
Li Wudao paid all the gains from the battle of Yilongshan, plus 120 taels of money he had invested over the years, a total of 400 taels of silver, and finally won the first property in his life!
The house is divided into two floors, the lower floor is used as the storefront, and the upper floor has two bedrooms and a living room. Although it is not large, it is enough for Li Wudao at the moment.
After buying the house, Li Wudao felt like he was back to the time before liberation. He only wanted to move the herbs from the stone house and turn them into silver.
It was already noon when Li Wudao finally returned to the stone house. Before he had time to pack up the herbs, Qi Meng called him.
"Brother Dao, can you come over here?" Qi Meng's pretty face flushed, with the shy attitude of a little girl, which made Li Wudao stunned.
He seriously suspected that this girl had taken the wrong medicine!
Looking at the half-exposed pretty face in the stone house opposite, Li Wudao muttered something and walked over anyway.
Qi Meng's family is not well off. After all, they all live in the slums. How well off can they be?
Li Wudao's house was filled with the aroma of medicine, while Qi Meng's house was filled with the aroma of wine.
Li Wudao walked into the room and looked around, but he didn't see Qi Meng's father. He asked with some confusion: "Where is Old Man Ling?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Wudao secretly thought that something was wrong.
Sure enough, tears the size of soybeans rolled down Qi Meng's pretty face, and she looked so pitiful.
Li Wudao had never seen Qi Meng in this state before. He was flustered for a moment and stood aside, not knowing what to do. In the end, he could only stare blankly.
The girl's sorrow is like a river of spring water flowing eastward, silently, but like the blood-curdling cry of a cuckoo, so depressing that it makes people feel distressed.
Li Wudao was also an orphan, but his parents died when he was very young, so he had never experienced the pain of crying uncontrollably. But at this moment, Li Wudao finally understood it.
"Before my father died, he asked me to follow you in the future." Qi Meng finally wiped away her tears and said this with red eyes.
"Okay, I'm eighteen and you're sixteen. From now on, you'll be my sister." Li Wudao promised without hesitation. After all, this girl has no one to rely on. Although she is a warrior, she has a carefree personality. What can he do?
Li Wudao and Old Man Ling were old acquaintances, and they could be considered close friends regardless of age. It was only natural for him to take care of his old friend's daughter.
Thinking about how the girl was so shy this morning, Li Wudao guessed that maybe Old Man Ling had passed away by then.
"Hey! Dried Fruit, are you serious? My father entrusted me to you, but asked you to marry me!" Qi Meng cried for a while, and after venting a lot of her emotions, she calmed down and said stubbornly, "With my youth and beauty, am I not worthy of a dried fruit like you?"
Qi Meng was just now, with tears in her eyes, her face a little red, and she looked very pretty with one hand on her waist. Her skin was as white as cream, and in her blue long dress she looked like a fairy, a real beauty.
"Marry you? No, absolutely not!" Li Wudao suddenly came to his senses. He didn't expect that Old Man Ling actually meant this, and quickly refused.
Li Wudao can't even take care of himself now. It's okay for him to take care of this girl on a daily basis, but if he talks about marrying her, it would be a bit unfair to her.
"I don't care. This is what my father said. You will be my husband from now on, and we will get married soon!" Qi Meng's spoiled personality came out. She reached out and grabbed Li Wudao's arm, showing no mercy.
Ge Ren was shocked. This girl was a warrior and she was very ruthless in her attacks. With his small body, he was no match for her.
Li Wudao was seen slipping away with grease on his feet!
In a teahouse on Yilong Town's side street, a few ruffians were cursing at Li Wudao, venting their disgrace for the day. Several prostitutes surrounded them, pouring tea for them.
"Don't be angry, Uncle Liu Da. What's a mere piece of trash to me?" A prostitute gently stroked the rogue's chest and comforted him in a seductive voice.
"Haha, that's right! We have a beauty in our arms, so what can Li Wudao do!" Liu Da laughed heartily upon hearing this, and enjoyed the prostitute's teasing very much.
At this moment, there was a commotion on Auxiliary Street, which attracted the attention of thugs like Liu Da.
"Gan Guoren, if you don't marry me, I will fight you!" Qi Meng is full of youthfulness, and even if she is willful and capricious, she still has a unique style.
Even if Li Wudao used all his strength, he was no match for her as a warrior and was caught by Qi Meng in an instant.
Looking at the people on the street pointing and talking, Li Wudao shouted in his heart: I've found a girl!
"Xiao Li, such a beautiful woman, is not happy about it. That's too much!"
"Did you see clearly? This little girl is actually a warrior!
"You're so shameless! You're so shameless!"
Passersby saw it all, and many of them were curious about Qi Meng's origins. This girl once came from a prominent family, living on the main street of Yilong Town. Her father was a powerful warrior. Unfortunately, Old Man Ling was later assassinated by his enemies, and the family fell into decline.
With the guidance of a father who was once a strong man, Qi Meng must be a warrior without a doubt!
"Bang!" Liu Da was furious when he heard that. He pushed away the prostitute beside him and almost knocked down the tea table with one punch!
Several prostitutes made them very happy, but Ge Ren was not happy about being favored by the peerless beauty.
Comparing yourself to others is really frustrating!
