Chapter 170 The Lady of the Village Paves the Way



"What are you reading?"

Li Qi sneaked up behind Chu Changzui and startled him.

Although his heart skipped a beat, Chu Changzui still responded calmly.

"Nothing, just a storybook."

"How rare." Li Qi said, "You are actually interested in this kind of thing."

"Occasionally I would be interested." Chu Changzui said.

Li Qi just asked casually and didn't have the interest to take a closer look.

After he asked, he turned around and left, leaving Chu Changzui alone to take a few long breaths.

He took out the storybook in his hand and took a look.

In fact, ever since Chu Changzui saw the small tablet at the shopkeeper's place last time, he has been secretly searching for what happened back then.

It has to be said that there are indeed not many clues left from what happened back then, and there were countless undercover agents at one time.

It is too difficult to search out what the shopkeeper might have done from these things. Even for a smart man like Chu Changzui, it will take a lot of time.

But in the end, he still found a few clues.

Chu Changzui rubbed his temples.

The senior named Qu Wanyuan in the legend is almost a world of difference from the shopkeeper.

Feng Wuhen has always been a murderer in the legend, who has no interest in anything else except killing.

And the senior Qu Wanyuan is a person with a very gentle personality, many friends, and admired by countless people.

Could it be a mistake?

Chu Changzui was a little uncertain again.

He put down the script in his hand, thinking about settling the bill first and talking about the shopkeeper's matter later, when he suddenly heard the voices of the shopkeeper and another man outside.

Chu Changzui curiously leaned over to take a look.

What was the shopkeeper saying to that man?

"I really can't help you." Feng Qing repeated it countless times.

She was a little helpless.

However, the big brother in front of her seemed to not understand what she said and insisted that he could help him.

This made Feng Qing start to wonder if she had been too generous recently, so the people around her had heard of her reputation for generosity.

Chu Changzui noticed that everyone else in the inn seemed to be standing aside to watch the excitement, so he followed and asked An Huoshaxi who was standing there, "What's wrong with that man?" "

Ask the shopkeeper to save him." An Huoshaxi said.

"Hmm?" Chu Changzui thought about it and said, "Who gave him the idea?"

"I don't know." Li Qi said, "But I have a guess in my mind."

"Who?" Everyone else in the inn looked at him at the same time.

"...Yi Chixue."

Li Qi said after a moment of silence.

After hearing Li Qi's words, everyone in the inn also fell silent.

...

Although Wuming Inn has always had a unique status in the world, no one has ever regarded it as an organization.

Therefore, no one would seek help from a shopkeeper who was so scary in the eyes of outsiders. Even

the guests who stayed in the inn, most of them just stayed in their rooms, and no one dared to come out and talk to the shopkeeper face to face.

And the shopkeeper always treated these guests as if they were nothing.

Even if they passed by each other, the shopkeeper would not even cast his eyes on them.

However, when it comes to whether there is anyone in the world who understands the shopkeeper, then even the staff of the inn have to say a person's name.

- Yi Chixue.

If it is this person, then he may be able to see through the shopkeeper a little, so it is possible that he can give advice.

While his thoughts were racing, the people in the inn kept their attitude of "if the enemy doesn't move, I won't move" and watched quietly.

Feng Qing here, on the other hand, was so worried that her head was about to explode.

Qi Yushu, who was sitting opposite her, looked very calm on the surface.

In fact, only he himself knew that his nervous hands were shaking.

Only when he came in front of this shopkeeper could he feel that terrible sense of oppression. If he had not come here with the determination to die, he would have fainted by now.

However, the shopkeeper in front of him still looked indifferent.

Qi Yushu's heart slowly began to grow cold.

Indeed.

The person who asked him to come here was Yi Chixue.

Qi Yushu went to ask this famous swordsman of the time to save his sister with the heart of risking his life.

However, after he knelt and begged for three days and three nights on the snowy mountain, the swordsman finally shook his head.

"I can't help you." Yi Chixue said, "I have no grudges against Yi Shan. If I take action, then Yi Shan will have a grudge."

Qi Yushu felt that his consciousness was already blurred. Before he was about to faint, he suddenly heard Yi Chixue say something.

"However, there is one person in this world who can save you."

Yi Chixue's voice was very cold at that time.

He looked at the white snow on the top of the mountain and said lightly, "If that person is not willing to save you..."

"Then, no one in this world will save you anymore."

Qi Yushu was shocked.

Yi Chixue seemed to have a much better temper recently, so he actually said so much this time.

If it were in the past, even if that person knelt like an ice sculpture on the top of the mountain, he probably wouldn't have any reaction.

He just left these words in the end.

"Go find her."

Before hearing that name, Qi Yushu had wondered who that person was.

Was it the famous and respected hero?

However, when he heard that name, Qi Yushu was stunned for a long time.

He couldn't figure out why Yi Chixue asked him to find such a terrible person.

But with the idea of ​​trying his best, he still came to find Feng Qing.

Sure enough.

This shopkeeper was just as rumored, with a weird temper and a terrible personality. She had no intention of intervening in this matter.

Qi Yushu even thought that she was very likely in cahoots with Yishan.

Feng Qing was finally completely annoyed by the big brother in front of him.

She slapped the table and said, "What do you want!"

As the shopkeeper slapped her, not only Qi Yushu in front of her, but also everyone eating in the guest room shuddered at the same time.

But after the slap, Feng Qing felt a little regretful.

She looked at the man in front of her and thought that he was also a pitiful person.

In the end, Feng Qing still lost to this big brother. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, why do you have to look so pitiful..."

"You and your sister...if you really have nowhere to go, you can come to my place."

"Really?" Qi Yushu's eyes lit up instantly.

The waiters behind him were suddenly stunned and looked at each other.

Qi Yushu hesitated for a while, took out something from his pocket and put it in front of the shopkeeper.

"This is just a small item. It's not a token of respect."

He just saw a pile of these things in front of the shopkeeper. She must be very interested in these things.

It just so happened that he was carrying one of these things.

Feng Qing took a look at the thing that the man in front of him put on the table.

It was a blackened stone.

The stone was almost unrecognizable. It was strange in shape, especially like a broken stone picked up from somewhere. There was a rope on it, stringing the stone together like a pendant.

Such a thing did look a bit shabby as a gift.

But when he thought that the brother and sister opposite seemed to have fled here, this thing might be the only thing they had, Feng Qing couldn't bear it.

She took the stone in front of her.

In order to take care of the mood of the person opposite, Feng Qing did not even take it out alone, but deliberately put it together with the beautiful jewelry she bought from Taobao.

"Li Qi, find a room for him." After Feng Qing put it away, she turned around and called Li Qi.

As a result, she suddenly heard no sound behind her, so she shouted again loudly, "Li Qi, Li Qi?"

Li Qi did not reply to the shopkeeper in time at this moment.

Because he had already looked at the thing that Qi Yushu took out in shock like the other waiters in the inn, and for a moment, he could not remember anything else in his mind.

That is the famous blood jade stone in the world, and it is said that it is a kind of gem that can only be born in the extremely yin land.

If it is soaked in blood, it will show an amazing blood color.

It is said that people who touch it will even feel dazed.

What's worse, the murderous aura in the stone will destroy their minds, and from now on they will become people who only have instincts, like zombies.

The shopkeeper just picked up this thing, and she was so calm, as if she was picking up an ordinary little stone.

She just threw it aside, and then ordered someone to find a house for this person.

And it was when they saw this blood jade that the other guests in the inn finally realized the identity of the person in front of them.

Blood Scholar, Qi Yushu.

Feng Qing recalled what the man had just said to him, and muttered in his heart while looking at it.

This seemingly gentle man said that he had a sister who was as beautiful as a flower, but she was accidentally spotted by the king of some mountain village, who wanted to take her back to be his wife.

The brother couldn't bear it, so he secretly took his sister out when no one was at home, and fled all the way to here. Now he has nowhere to go and has no other choice, so he came to find Feng Qing.

This civilized modern person like Feng Qing had never experienced the cruel society of ancient times. The term "wife of the village" sounded like a word that could only be heard in TV dramas to her, and it actually happened in front of her. What a sin, what a sin.

While Feng Qing was sighing here, the guys over there were still whispering about what was going on.

"Why would the Blood Scholar come to us for no reason?" Feng Xiruo said with wide eyes.

"It seems that the rumor a while ago is true." Li Qi sighed.

"What rumor?"

"It is said that the Left Protector of a Moment fell in love with the Blood Scholar's sister and wanted her to be his concubine."
