Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Calm Scholar
This time the dead man dealt a big blow to the morale of the convoy and made them a little sluggish.
It's just that what surprised them was that the scholars in the temple still looked calm and relaxed.
In fact, Li Si was also a little anxious in his heart, after all, this ghost wanted to put people in a closed space that could not be escaped, in this kind of space, as long as there was a rational person, he would feel a little anxious.
But he was able to control his emotions very well and not let it affect his state, because in the current state, anxiety is of no use to the current situation.
The people in the convoy obviously didn't have such a good control ability, and after burying the people, Zhou Yuanwai continued to send people to explore the way, and then two servants dared to run to the official road to explore the way.
The result was surprising, these two people didn't run back, Zhou Yuanwai was a little surprised in his heart, he thought that the two slaves would definitely not dare to come back after running out, so he immediately asked people to prepare things and go towards the official road.
Li Si heard the movement, but he was still unmoved, and read quietly.
He knew that these people would definitely not be able to get out, and the people who went to explore the path before were probably dead.
Li Si had been thinking about which ghost this ghost was, but then he thought that it should be the hanged ghost.
Because of the reasons experienced by the original owner, he understood that there was only one ghost who liked to torture people so much.
As for why Li Si didn't tell those people, it was because those people wouldn't believe him, and he also had his own reasons.
He knew a truth from the death of Yu Hu and Shu Fangshi in front of him, even if he tried his best to save it, he couldn't save so many people in this world.
Man can only save himself and fulfill himself.
In fact, he still has other thoughts, he wants to try to establish a force that can clean up demons.
This is also the reason why Li Si planted peaches to He Zhong and let him plant them.
As for the current form of control of ghosts and monsters by the gods of this world, Li Si felt a little uneasy, and these gods were too lax in their control over ghosts and monsters.
This can be seen from He Zhong being blinded by ghosts and running to the peach forest, and now the ghosts are blatantly setting up ghosts to fight the wall near the official road.
Even Li Si didn't know whether these so-called city gods, land lords, mountain gods and the like were real gods or man-eating ghosts, he knew too little about them.
It's just that it's still too early for him to build power. Now he is only an ordinary person with two low-level ghosts, and he has some kung fu at most, but he is still too weak compared to those demons and monsters.
Li Si shook his head slightly, leaving those thoughts behind, now that he thought about these things, it was only to add to his troubles.
After putting these thoughts aside, he continued to look at the book, and he found that he liked reading more and more, and he had never liked reading so much in his previous life.
Of course, this is also because of Xiaoyu by his side, so that he can understand it at a glance, and there is nothing jerky at all.
Subsequently, as Li Si expected, it didn't take long for the people in the convoy to come back in disgrace.
As soon as he came back, a group of people sighed, even Zhou Yuanwai was depressed, and he had no idea of cheering everyone up, and there was also crying in the carriage, it should be Zhou Yuanwai's wife and children crying.
Li Si listened to the sound of conversation outside, not only did this group of people not even find the way, but even the two people who explored the road did not see it, and they could not see anyone alive or dead.
Then, as if he had thought of something, he walked into the temple, bowed down to Li Si, and pleaded, "Please save us, sir." ”
Before, this week, the staff thought that Li Si had no way to go out, but now that so much time has passed, this person is not arrogant or impatient, so he must have something to hold.
Seeing him like this, Li Si frowned slightly, he couldn't protect himself now, at most, he was in the current state of stalemate with that ghost, how could he have the ability to help them.
"You go out, just don't move around these days." Li Si said calmly, if he can find props in the mall that can escape from this in the next few days, then these people may be able to follow him out alive.
"Thank you, sir!" When the staff heard Li Si say this this week, they immediately kowtowed excitedly. If this man says so, there must be a way to get out.
In fact, he is not so afraid of death, but he just doesn't want his wife and children to die here like him.
Then the crew went out this week and told the news to the convoy, and everyone cheered and danced when they heard it, and their morale was high.
Li Si heard the sound of cheering and dancing outside, and frowned slightly, he was not sure to get out now, but these people regarded him as a savior. He believed that if he did not take these people out for a long time, these people would turn against each other.
Immediately, he shook his head, put the book in the bookcase, and began to practice the practice of "Xuangui Lu", if someone wants to make a move on him, then it is not good for his sword skill.
At this time, someone outside had already heard the movements in the temple, and some curious people wanted to go outside the temple to see the situation inside.
But he was soon stopped by a guard, who knew that the person inside was practicing, and if someone peeped, he was afraid that he would be killed.
In fact, this guard's guess was right, if someone really spied on Li Si's practice, although Li Si would not kill that person, but the suffering must be indispensable.
After being in this world for so long, he has learned a lot, such as being ruthless.
His martial arts are even cautious to teach Cao Meng, and these people don't know their character, if they just take a look, it's okay, if they learn secretly, then Li Si will really dig him down with a pair of tricks.
Then at noon, Li Si stopped practicing martial arts and checked the time in the mall, and there was still 1 day, 5 hours, 39 minutes and 21 seconds left.
After reading the time, he took out the dry food from the bookcase and ate it, and at this time, the man in the caravan brought another dish with all the color and flavor.
This time, it was the Zhou Yuanwai who delivered the food.
"This is a little bit of my heart, and I invite my husband to enjoy it." Zhou Yuanwai arched his hand.
This Zhou Yuanwai has now regarded Li Si as the last savior, so now he has a flattering look, and even his title has changed.
Li Si glanced at him, and continued to put the clothes that were used as pillows on the ground, ready to continue to be used as pillows, and said without looking back: "Take out these dishes, and don't send me any more dishes in the future." ”
