5. I will protect the tears of the witch

In front of the castle turret, Tarence entered the room with a sad expression on his face, and Sardar hid far away with a group of guards, staring at Li Qi with half a face from behind the wall pillars, which was already the limit of their loyalty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

A few minutes later, the little girl named Finny went out, and for the first time in the sun, Richie saw her clearly.

Her clothes were completely tattered strips of cloth, and her exposed skin was so dirty that she couldn't see her true color. The short gray hair was like dead grass, and only the green eyes were clear and flawless.

The little girl stood timidly in front of Richie, so light that she seemed to be able to float up with a breath.

She looked at Li Qi bravely and eagerly: "I won't cry, master, as long as you cure grandpa, I am willing to do anything." ā€

Your grandfather wasn't seriously ill, he was just hungry just now, and he ate a few white breads for the most part.

Li Qi didn't say these words, the little girl was already mentally prepared to let the strange Shu Huang do whatever she wanted, and her eyes made him a little panicked.

Li Qi wanted to beckon the maid to take her to wash her white, but just opened her mouth and closed it again.

Tarence tells him that if Finney weeps, she will reveal the witch's true nature, and that if she lets the maid play with her, something will definitely happen.

Gritting his teeth, Li Qi said, "Let's take a bath with me first." ā€

Behind the door, the old man's suppressed sobs sounded......

The servant quickly boiled the bath water and drove away the bucktooth maid who wanted to serve, and Richie took off the little girl's beggar costume and soaked her in the bath.

At this time, Li Qi's heart was clear, at this age, this thin and refugee-like figure, there was no way for him to think more. And the feeling of picking up the little girl is the same as the feeling when the little girl was pushed away from under the wheel in the previous life, it is as light as a feather.

Finney was confused and frightened: "Master......"

Li Qi handed her a towel: "Wipe the front yourself, I'll wipe your back." ā€

"Oh", she took it obediently, turned around and washed it.

The skin was revealing its true color one by one, it looked too pale because of malnutrition, and there were whip marks and scars on his arms and back, which were gathered on such a petite body, so that Li Qi couldn't help but palpitate.

Tallence said that Finney was born into a family of serfs. Having been abused by her lords, parents, and brothers since she was a child, she was sacrificed by her father to the lord when she was found, and the lord was preparing to sell her to a brothel in the city.

I don't know if the water is too warm, or Richie's touch is too gentle, Finney's small body trembled slightly, and the sound of pumping was very obvious, and she was holding back her tears.

It's better to talk about something to divide her heart, and Li Qi asked, "Do you know that you are a witch?"

Finney said in a very nasal voice: "Grandpa, grandpa said that I am not a witch, but a saint." ā€

"But when you cry, you become like that, that's not a saint," said Richie gently, as if he were chatting with his own little niece.

"Grandpa said that it was because my faith was not strong enough to awaken the goddess. ā€

"Faith, what do you believe?"

"The teachings of the goddess say that suffering is impossible to ...... There is no escaping it, we can only be strong in the face of suffering, and gain ...... in suffering strength is the only way to save yourself. ā€

"That's what Tarence taught you, do you really understand?"

"Understood...... Not much. ā€

"The teachings of the Goddess of Suffering are true, but how do you gain strength in suffering, and then how do you save yourself?"

"I don't know ......"

Finney turned her head sideways, looked through her hair, and looked at Li Qi carefully: "Don't cry, do you?"

Goddess, can you give a reliable task? Let such a little girl understand the revolutionary truth that everyone becomes a god?

Li Qi secretly lamented that the goddess gave a goal of "making a revolution in Finn" and a program of "everyone becomes a god", but as for the specific things, she didn't care at all. It's like turning Finney into a devout believer, only giving the goal and not mentioning the process, no matter what world it is, the boss is really a hateful creature.

Devout ...... Even he, the Pope, didn't know what to believe, he had only one goal, a slogan.

No matter how much it is, Li Qi broke the jar and broke it, and simply just wanted to mingle with the little girl.

"It's normal to cry, to cry when you're sad, to cry when you're in pain, to know that you're suffering. If you never cry again, it means that you will never be sad and will never be in pain again. Then you won't be able to feel sweetness and happiness anymore, because sweetness and happiness will also make people cry. ā€

He was just thinking about what to say, but when he heard the louder and louder snorting, he realized that something was wrong.

"Master, I—I can't help it. ā€

The sparkle rippled in Finney's eyes, like dew drops falling on the tips of leaves, and nothing could stop it.

"No one has ever spoken to me like that except for my grandfather......"

Finney shrank into the corner of the bathtub: "Master, you go quickly!"

The gaze at Shang Finney was mixed with feelings of inferiority, pain, reluctance, guilt and fear, which made Li Qi think of the little girl in his previous life.

If my brother can save it the first time, he can save it the second time!

And when a girl cries, you run away, how can you go further in her heart?

Li Qi figured it out and reached out to hold Finney's arm: "Don't worry, cry, I can stand it." ā€

It's just a pain anyway......

A terrible howl pierced through the door, and even from a distance, Sardar could hear it clearly.

"Young Master-!"

He raised his leg and was about to rush over, but he only took one step, and he couldn't take the next step.

"Your Majesty Shuma, give me strength!"

He blushed and shouted, but it was as if he had been petrified, and his feet were completely glued to the floor, and his body writhed unwillingly.

"No, I won't lose to the devil in my heart! I won't lose to fear!"

Sardar cried out in despair, tears streaming down his face.

The next moment, Li Qi yelled, "I'm fine!

Sardar stumbled, then fell to the ground.

Rubbing his nose, he muttered suspiciously: "What new tricks is the young master playing?"

It's really a new trick, last time it was just a pain in the heart, this time, Li Qi's whole body and mind seemed to be rolling on the pile of thorns, and the intensity increased several times.

But the strange thing is that Li Qi did not show any signs of fainting in pain, but with the pain, a sense of lucidity that was withdrawn from reality became stronger and stronger, making his memory of his past and present lives clearer and clearer. Each memory extends two feelings at the same time, one is to be in it, and every detail is emerging, and the other is to stay out of the matter and judge everything.

Hell, he's kind of loving it!

The slender and delicate little arm in his hand twitched, as if he wanted to break free from him, so that he subconsciously clenched.

Finney, who turned into a dark angel, suddenly raised her tumbling black wings, and the eyes of the silver moon, which seemed to be able to penetrate everything, stared at Li Qi, and her little face, which had become indifferent, gradually had an expression again.

She threw herself into Richie's arms and cried loudly, and the tears that had slipped down turned into a fluorescent stream.

Wow...... Tap ......

Li Qi felt some power surging out of his body, enveloping a little pain, gradually turning into pieces of hot burning sensation, and then converging into a stream of heat, surging out of his body.

When he had the strength to open his eyelids, he was almost stupid with shock.

What's going on!?

The soft white light illuminated the otherwise dimly lit room, and the light came from the little girl in her arms, who wore a crown of thorns woven of light on her head, and a pair of white wings of light flapped slightly behind her back. There was also a pitch-black mist floating around the light wings, which was being swallowed up by white light at a speed visible to the naked eye.

I think I've done something terrible......

Li Qi, who was in shock, could barely turn this one thought in his mind.

Finney raised her head, tears still welling up in her eyes, her small red lips grinned, and she said with a smile, "I seem to have seen a goddess, huh?"

Then she realized that something was wrong: "What's wrong with me?"

The light screen buzzed in front of Li Qi's eyes, and it was the taskbar released by the goddess before.

[Take the first step]

"Mission: Get the first devout believer. ā€

"Mission accomplished. ā€

"Reward 10 Divine Grace. ā€

Divine grace or something, even the goddess didn't figure it out, and Li Qi didn't care.

The point is, that's the job done?

What about the pious believers?

"Master, I'm ......"

Faced with a question mark and an uneasy Finney, Richie decided to ask the goddess later.

He said to Phine, "You are now a true saint." ā€

The next words made the new saintess even more confused: "Don't call me master, now we are revolutionary comrades." ā€
