Chapter 216 Dalang, it’s time to take medicine (26)
Wei Qi went to make breakfast for his wife happily. To be honest, he was quite pitiful. He had lived for more than 30 years in two lifetimes, but he had never even touched a woman's hand before.
Before the end of the world, he had mysophobia and had never met a woman he liked; after the end of the world, his mysophobia had to be cured, and women were divided into two extremes, one was a complete dodder, relying on selling her body to make a living, and the other was completely self-reliant and self-reliant, busy all day long improving her combat effectiveness and not wanting to fall in love at all. What's more, struggling to survive in such a high-pressure environment, Wei Qi had no time for love, so naturally it was delayed.
So it was not until now that he really said goodbye to his life as a virgin and became a man who had had sex.
Wei Qi even felt light when he walked, and everything he saw seemed pleasing to the eye. Even when bees flew in from the window and kept buzzing around him, he would just smile and gently drive the bees away. His whole body embodied what it meant to be "in high spirits".
After this, the two seemed to have reached a consensus and completely became a real couple. The two who had just started having sex wished they could stick together for twelve hours a day, like conjoined twins. Wei Qi even stopped going hunting, and happily served as his househusband every day, taking care of Huo Shichu who was unable to get out of bed. However, he was happy to do so.
After being in a ridiculous state for half a month, the two of them finally planned to go out and see the world after planning a trip and taking care of things at home.
Chu Ran also heard the news that Wei Qi and his wife were going out, and without caring about the fact that he had offended Huo Shichu before, he immediately came to them. He wanted Wei Qi to inquire about his life experience.
Wei Qi did not take on this troublesome matter, but directly said: "My husband and I do not have a fixed place to travel, so I cannot do your request. Moreover, we do not know your situation, and it is as difficult to find out your background as to find a needle in a haystack."
Chu Ran smiled bitterly and said, "I know this, but I really have no other choice but to shamelessly trouble you. Of course, I won't ask you to go out of your way to find out for me. I just hope you can ask along the way when it's convenient. I won't force you..."
Seeing that he did not use his uncertain status as a "noble" to force him, Wei Qi nodded and said, "Well, I will help to find out within my ability, but don't hold your hopes too high. I still think it's best for you to go out and find out your own life experience."
Chu Ran nodded: "I know, but I am penniless now, and I don't have the money to go out and inquire. I can only trouble you first. When I have the ability, I will naturally go to investigate myself."
Wei Qi asked him some more questions that could prove his identity. Chu Ran had to rack his brains to tell Wei Qi what Wei Er Niang had told him. After he was rescued by Wei Er Niang, all his clothes were changed. He only heard from Wei Er Niang what could prove his identity, and he didn't know whether it was true or not.
But after all, he still held out hope, so Chu Ran told Wei Qi everything in detail, eagerly hoping that Wei Qi would bring him good news.
"He has the nerve to bother us. He even accused you of being heartless and unfilial in front of me." Huo Shichu curled his lips and said unhappily.
Wei Qi patted her head and said, "Don't be angry. We are not helping him for free. Moreover, we are just asking for information for him when it does not interfere with our business. We are not helping him specifically."
Huo Shichu asked curiously: "It's not free? Didn't he say he was penniless?"
"Silly girl, just because he can't pay the price now doesn't mean he won't be able to pay it in the future." Wei Qi scratched her little upturned nose and said with a smile.
"If we succeed in helping him find out his background, given his background, he will have to repay us even for the sake of his reputation; of course, it is more likely that we will not be able to find out his background, but then won't he have to continue staying in the village? And he lives in the Wei family, and if I want to take revenge on the Wei family, can't I just use his hand?" Wei Qi said calmly again.
Huo Shichu immediately looked at him with admiration, looked at him in surprise and said, "I didn't expect you to even consider all this. You are quite scheming."
Wei Qi raised the corner of his mouth and said jokingly: "Isn't this a lesson learned? If you don't have any plan, you will only suffer a big loss. What's more, I am not alone now. I have a wife to support. Don't I have to be more calculative?"
"It's better to be calculative. I like to eat everything, but I don't like to suffer losses. If you are a good person who doesn't ask for anything in return, I will definitely kick you out..." Huo Shichu said lightly.
"Of course I'm not a good guy!" Wei Qi hurriedly denied. The original owner of Wei Dalang might be one, but he had come from the end of the world, so he definitely couldn't be a good guy. He didn't know how much blood was on his hands.
The two chatted and laughed as they arrived at the town. They rented a carriage and went to the county, hoping to find a caravan in the county to travel together. After all, the caravan was most familiar with the road conditions and the situations in various places. It would be easier for them to understand the situation if they followed the caravan.
After arriving at the county, Wei first found an inn and settled down. Then he went to the escort agency to inquire about the situation. Most caravans would ask escorts to help escort them, so that their safety could be guaranteed.
As expected, Wei Qi got the news. The guy from the escort agency told him that a caravan would leave for the capital tomorrow. They said that the caravan had some connection with the imperial merchant Li family, so they were particularly generous and invited most of the escort agents from their agency to escort them. Wei Qi and his wife only had to pay a small amount of money to follow them.
Wei Qi agreed immediately, so they made an appointment and waited to set off together.
"Wei Qi, there are so many people in this caravan. I wonder what goods they are transporting? Look at the deep ruts left by their carriages." Huo Shichu leaned his head out of the carriage, leaned close to the ear of Wei Qi, who was driving the carriage, and whispered.
They drove their own carriages and followed the caravan. There were many ordinary people like them who followed the caravan. The people in the caravan did not object to this. After all, if they really encountered robbers, ordinary people could serve as cannon fodder for them, so they both got what they needed.
Wei Qi also saw what was happening. He whispered to Huo Shichu, "I heard it was rice, cloth, or something like that. But forget about rice. Cloth can't possibly leave such deep wheel marks, so the caravan people probably didn't tell the truth. But it's none of our business. If you really encounter robbers, I can protect you."
"It's okay. I can protect myself." Huo Shichu waved his hand nonchalantly, and then said with sparkling eyes, "Could it be gold or silver?"
Wei Qi couldn't help but chuckle: "Have you read too many novels? Where can there be so much gold and silver? It's more likely that it's stone."
"Can we make money by transporting stones from such a long distance to the capital?" Huo Shichu didn't quite believe it.
"Then let's see what kind of stones they are transporting. Aren't marble, jadeite raw stones and the like very valuable?" Wei Qi said.
"That's true." Huo Shichu said, wondering if there was any famous stone in this small county that was worth transporting to the capital.
