Chapter 23: A Thought Across the Mountains



"You're looking for death! Do you know who we are?! Believe it or not, I will kill you!"

The young man pointed at the powerful Li Huashi and shouted fiercely.

Li Huashi stood proudly in the carriage, shaking her legs, with an expression that seemed full of disdain.

"You're not a beauty, why would I know who you are?"

"You're looking for death! Catch him! Beat him!"

At the young master's command, the guards around them immediately drew their swords and headed towards Li Huashi and the other two.

Seeing this, Hu Qi drew his sword without hesitation and prepared to attack.

The person on the opposite side was frightened by Hu Qi's aura and paused for a moment.

At this moment, Li Huashi immediately jumped off the carriage, pulled Huqi and started running away.

Hu Qi: ... ?

Although Hu Qi didn't react to Li Hua Shi's behavior, he subconsciously let her pull him and run.

Li Huashi laughed loudly and turned back to challenge him, "My little beauty, just wait for me to come back and find you~!"

The people behind him reacted and caught up immediately.

Hu Qi: ... Okay, it looks like Shishi just wants to play.

Hu Qi chuckled, put the scimitar back into the scabbard, then pulled Li Hua Shi with his backhand and ran faster.

As Li Huashi ran, she would occasionally turn back and make a sarcastic remark, or deliberately ask Huqi to stop and wait for a few seconds.

After playing around with this group of guards for a few times, Li Huashi was a little tired.

He turned around and shouted again: "If you don't go back, I'm afraid your master will have to take care of you~!"

The leader of the guards' face changed and he stopped abruptly.

"Oh no! Go back! Go back quickly!!"

The group of people ran away without even bothering to chase the two and turned around and ran back.

Seeing that the man had been scared away, Li Huashi also pulled Huqi to stop, gasping for breath, and fanned the man a few times with the folding fan in her hand.

"I'm so tired, oh my god."

Hu Qi took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Li Hua Shi's face.

Li Huashi: "Hahaha, this is quite fun."

Although I was just thinking about it at first, after all, I was the one who was looking for trouble, and if I hurt someone, could it be that I really wanted to tease the girl?

That's why she took Huqi and ran away, and didn't let them really fight.

But now Li Huashi feels that this is quite fun. It's fun to provoke someone and then run away, while the other person is extremely angry but can't hit her.

Hu Qi shook his head helplessly, thinking that Li Huashi must be thirsty after running for so long, and gave her two sips of water.

After drinking the water, Li Huashi looked at the surroundings.

"Based on my previous experience traveling around the world, there is probably only that one inn nearby."

Hu Qi: There is indeed only that one inn on the map.

Li Huashi: "It's more comfortable to stay in an inn at night, but if I go back now, I'm afraid I'll run into them, and I don't want to run away now.

Is there a river nearby? Let’s go play in the water and then we can come back later.”

Hu Qi nodded: "There is no river, but there is a stream in the mountains behind. Can I carry you there?"

Li Huashi: “Okay!”

After Hu Qi squatted down, Li Hua Shi stood behind him and pressed her whole body on him.

Li Huashi: "Come, let me fan you~"

Hu Qi chuckled. He knew that it was because of the posture, so no matter how Li Huashi fanned her, she would fan him by the way.

Hu Qi did not expose someone's attempt to take advantage of others, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Shishi~"

Li Huashi: "No~thank you~"

. . . .

The stream that Hu Qi was talking about was really just a shallow stream.

Li Huashi walked barefoot in the stream, but her plan to play in the water was in vain.

In the end, I could only scoop up a few handfuls of water to wash my face.

After washing her face, Li Huashi looked at her white and tender feet in the stream, tilted her head, and thought about something silently.

Seeing this, Hu Qi asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Huashi looked at Huqi and felt relieved when she found that he was standing downstream from her.

She was just thinking whether this counted as washing her face with the water she used to wash her feet.

Fortunately, Huqi was not standing upstream, otherwise I would have used Huqi’s foot washing water to wash my face!

Hearing Huqi's question, Li Huashi reached out and grabbed his clothes, then raised one foot and shook it in front of Huqi.

"Look! My feet are really pretty too!"

Hu Qi couldn't help laughing, looking at the white and tender feet in front of him, he nodded: "Yeah, it looks good."

But after answering, Hu Qi paused, thought of something, half squatted down, and stretched out his hand to catch Li Huashi's feet.

Under Li Huashi's curious gaze, Hu Qi took out a string of silver bells and tied them on her.

“It looks better this way.”

Li Huashi shook it, and the silver bell made a pleasant and crisp sound.

Li Huashi couldn't help laughing: "It looks good, but I'm a man now, it's weird to put this on."

Hu Qi: "It's okay, there's no one else now."

Li Huashi nodded, retracted her feet and stepped back into the water, then took out a lounge chair from the warehouse and placed it directly in the stream.

Li Huashi didn't care whether it was stable or crooked, and just sat on it lazily.

Anyway, with Huo Qi here, there is no way she would fall.

Li Huashi: "Grilled fish? Roasted lamb? Hot pot?"

Hu Qi: "Let's grill the fish. You like to eat the belly of the fish. I'll grill a few more and also grill some vegetables that you like."

As Hu Qi answered, he adjusted the position of himself and his chair several times.

Li Huashi swung her feet with silver bells hanging on them, listened to the crisp sound, and nodded lazily.

After making sure that Li Huashi would not fall down due to the shaking, Hu Qi walked towards the shore, took out the ingredients and began to prepare.

After a while, Li Huashi raised her folding fan to block the sunlight from her face.

"Seven~na~sun~"

Hu Qi took out his parasol and walked towards the stream.

After building the parasol stand, Hu Qi also brought a few large stones to press down the stand to prevent it from accidentally falling.

After doing all this, Hu Qi went back to continue working on the fish he had killed.

In order to prevent Li Huashi and others from getting bored, he cut a plate of fruit and sent it to her while protecting Qi.

Li Huashi ate the fruit comfortably and looked at the busy Huqi, clicking her tongue twice.

"Seven, good man!"

Hu Qi smiled and said, "I heard from the rumor that Wuguo and Anguo sent a total of ten handsome men here."

Li Huashi became interested and asked curiously, "What's Rourou's expression?"

Hu Qi: "He smiled and gave them all to Zhui Yao and the others."

Li Huashi touched her chin and thought, "Are you really not interested in love at all?"

Hu Qi: "Why is Shishi beginning to be curious about Baizhirou's relationship issues?"

Li Huashi: "After all, it's been tens of thousands of years. You said Baizhirou is not as busy as chasing rumors, and she doesn't have any hobbies. How does she usually pass the time?

Bai Qianzhen likes fishing, Zhui Yao likes drinking and dancing, Bai Xie likes fighting, and you usually practice martial arts or go shopping."

Hu Qi thought about it and realized that when Bai Zhirou had nothing to do, she didn't seem to have any hobbies except drinking tea and appreciating flowers.

"Maybe... cultivating the mind?"
