Chapter 10: Forbearance
The morning light was faint, and a magnificent morning glow slowly appeared on the eastern horizon, and the silvery dawn gradually showed crimson, and the nameless town was shrouded in the hazy morning light.
Lin Qi woke up, looked at Xie Wan snuggled in his arms, smiled, and then gently put Xie Wan on the bed and covered the bedding, he knew that on the road in the future, someone would accompany him down, Xie Wan was the person who needed to be guarded in her life.
He walked to the window, gently picked up the dragon egg on the blind, and absorbed the moonlight of the night, not knowing if the life in the dragon egg had changed.
The dragon egg is as warm as jade, the eggshell is still as dazzling as blue crystal, and the mysterious inscription on it has not changed at all, it looks dull, but it can be clearly felt that the dragon egg is a little heavier than before, and the essence of the moon can promote the hatching of the dragon egg.
"It seems that it needs to be moonlit often!" Lin Qi was very pleased, but also felt the weight of responsibility on his shoulders.
The life inside the dragon egg doesn't know when it will hatch, but Lin Qi doesn't know that he must join the Spirit Immortal Soul Academy and have his own space before that, after all, paper can't hold the fire, otherwise, sooner or later, the secret that he has the dragon egg will be known to the world, and at that time, all the efforts will be in vain.
Subsequently, Lin Qi silently operated the soul power essence in his body, and there was a faint white halo circulating on the surface of his body, and the white breath was almost completely transparent in the sun, which was also the unique soul power essence in the blood of the Snow Clan, which could well excrete his own filth from the body through breathing, thereby improving the purity of the body.
He took a deep breath, and after a while, he slowly exhaled a cloudy breath, inhaling slightly, exhaling softly, forming a wonderful cycle. This is the impurity in Lin Qi's body.
The turbid air disappears in the morning light, or more precisely, the light that makes it disappear in the earthly world.
After the detoxification just now, Lin Qi felt that his whole body was extremely refreshed, his muscles were no longer sore, his body seemed to have endless strength, and his injuries were basically healed.
Then, Lin Qi put the dragon egg and amber necklace back into the wooden box, and placed the wooden box in a conspicuous place on the table, then glanced at Xie Wan who was sleeping affectionately, and quietly left the room.
Pushing open the door, Lin Qi slowly walked out, bursts of strange fragrance, surrounded by some tools for making spices, there are many porcelain jars sealed with beeswax, neatly placed on both sides, inside are some precious spices, such as Myoko incense, sandalwood, raw incense, Zhenzhen incense, dragon birthday incense, agarwood and other famous spices, countless.
Seeing this, Lin Qi was quite surprised, and was very shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that Xie Wan, who was only thirteen years old, could take on so many responsibilities by herself, I don't know how much she has suffered along the way, which makes him feel sorry for her in his heart.
Lin Qi soon left the spice shop and came to the streets of the nameless town.
Although the nameless city is not large, the number of people is still quite large, after all, it is also located in the Lincheng of the Heavenly Empire.
The streets of the small town are lined with shops, the sound of selling is endless, the streets are wide, the traffic is busy, people come and go, a lively scene.
Because the nameless city is the closest city directly connected to the Celestial Empire, many merchants from the continent will choose to pass through here, if a merchant from other places wants to enter the Celestial Empire, then he must pass through the nameless city, which is the rule set by the current city lord of the Celestial Empire.
Lin Qi walked down the streets, often seeing horse-drawn carts full of goods passing by, but he noticed that many merchants wore gauze hats, and black gauze covered their faces, so that people could not see his appearance and could not guess his identity.
Lin Qi hadn't eaten since yesterday, and now he was already hungry, but when he touched his arms, he let out a wry smile, and there was not a single coin.
When he was in Wind Chime Town, the Snow Clan didn't use the currency of the Xianchen Continent at all, and Lin Qi inherited this tradition very well, which made him trapped to such a point.
"Fragrant big bone soup dumplings!
"The freshly baked chicken is called a flower chicken! fat but not greasy!"
"Yellow Cinnamon Persimmon Cake!
......
The endless shouting echoed in his ears, making Lin Qi feel even more hungry, looking at those tempting delicacies, Lin Qi sighed helplessly, he couldn't eat the overlord meal, so he had to endure it.
"Forget it, let's go back and find a way!" Lin Qi didn't have the heart to visit this small city at all, he decided to go back and solve the problem of eating, after all, there was Xie Wan in this strange city.
Just as Lin Qi turned around and walked back, he unexpectedly bumped into someone in a hurry.
"Little beggar, how do you walk? Don't you have long eyes? The street is so wide, it just hit me!" In front of him was a pair of young men and women, one of whom was a beautiful woman with a displeased face, and Lin Qi accidentally bumped into her.
"I'm sorry!" Lin Qi hurriedly made amends, since he crossed the void, his clothes all over his body were very shabby, and the stains on his face had not had time to be cleaned, making him look like a little beggar.
"Senior sister, let's see if I've lost anything! The beggars now specialize in stealing like this. The young man beside him reminded, and stopped Lin Qi to prevent him from leaving.
At this time, Lin Qi showed displeasure on his face, this group of people actually regarded him as a beggar, which was a great insult, which made Lin Qi angry from his heart, and evil was born to the side of his heart. He wanted to beat the young man severely, but his strength was low, and he was not enough to compete with him, so he could only choose to endure the humiliation temporarily.
"Let him go, I didn't lose anything!" said the woman who had just been hit with a frown.
"Hmph, count yourself lucky, don't let me meet you next time!, otherwise ......" The young man let go of Lin Qi's hands and made a fist clenching motion at him, which means that the next time the master meets you, he will definitely beat you first.
Lin Qi's eyes were clear and his expression was calm, but he had already remembered the appearance of this young man in his heart, and secretly swore that he would send you to see Hades when they met next time.
"Okay, since we didn't let this little beggar succeed, then junior sister, let's go directly to Wanhua Pavilion and appreciate a few heavy treasures brought out from Zhongzhou!" The young man kept currying favor with the young woman beside him, and whispered in her ear: "I heard that the treasure brought by Zhongzhou just now, there is a treasure I think the junior sister must like!"
"Oh! what is it?" asked the pretty woman tentatively.
"Haha, I can't tell you this for the time being, and when the answer is revealed, you will naturally know the outcome of everything. The young man smiled but didn't answer, inadvertently looked back at Lin Qi behind him, frowned, and said, "Hey, I said that little beggar, what are you waiting for here, let you go, don't get out of here!"
Although Lin Qi was covered in stains, his smile was still very bright, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and said, "My name is Lin Qi, don't forget it!"
When the young man heard this, he showed a contemptuous look on his face and said, "Are you stupid by me, don't get out of here, be careful I want you to look good!"
The young woman on the side, Gu Jing Wubo, looked very flat, and said to the young man: "Okay, don't get along with mortals, and you are still the lowest person, we still have something to do, don't let him delay." ”
Hearing this, the young man nodded, smiled, and said, "Hehe, too, how can my dignified Grand Master Xu have a problem with a little beggar, let's go, Senior Sister Li, Wanhua Pavilion is still waiting for us!"
Then, the young man snorted lightly, ignored Lin Qi, and left the crowd while talking and laughing with the young woman beside him.
Looking at their backs as they gradually moved away, Lin Qi just smiled, didn't say anything, shook his head, and then strode away.
Lin Qi remembered the insult just now, it was the first time he was ridiculed when he was so old, and it also made him know the dark side of the world, and through the conversation between the man and woman just now, Lin Qi also learned a little bit of information, where don't you meet in life?
Lin Qi strode away, passed through the endless crowd, and returned to Xie Wan's spice shop after half a moment.
In the room, Xie Wan had already prepared a meal for him, a plate of green vegetables, a piece of tofu, and a bowl of porridge, although it was light and simple, but it happened to poke Lin Qi's weakness and made his nose sour, even when he had nothing, there were people who were willing to accompany him.
Xie Wan looked at him with a smile and said, "I guess you must be hungry! I made you something to eat, I made it myself, you can taste it!"
"Thank you, Xie Wan! I hope that in the future, with me, you won't feel lonely!" Lin Qi had mixed feelings in his heart, thanking God for loving him and letting him meet Xie Wan.
"Okay, let's eat!" Xie Wan lowered her head slightly, her eyes were like jade, and her fair cheeks flashed a hint of redness, she hoped that Lin Qi could accompany her.
The two of them enjoyed a simple breakfast together, sometimes laughing, sometimes silent, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Since Xie Wan had lived in a nameless town since she was a child, she must have known some things about the Heavenly Empire, and Lin Qi just wanted to have a preliminary understanding of the power of the Heavenly Empire.
"Is the power of the Heavenly Empire very strong?" Lin Qi asked.
Xie Wan nodded and said, "Many of the nearby small cities rely on the economic strength of the Heavenly Empire to survive, including the current nameless small city, where people from the Heavenly Empire visit every once in a while to increase their strength. ”
"Visiting?" Lin Qi was very surprised, he thought that it should be the small city-state that brought gifts to visit the city-state, so that the city-state received gifts and expanded the strength of his city-state, but Lin Qi didn't understand how this was reversed.
"Yes, almost every other month, the Heavenly Empire will send some soul magicians to visit the nameless city, as for what they are going to do, I don't know, there may be some secrets that no one knows!" Xie Wan explained, her understanding of the Heavenly Empire was also sporadic and she didn't know anything about many things in the world.
"Oh, that's it" Lin Qi whispered, for such a strange behavior of the Heavenly Empire, Lin Qi guessed that it was very likely to be related to the nameless city, but what the specific situation, who knows?!
Suddenly, he remembered the place that the young man had mentioned before, and asked, "Then do you know where the Wanhua Pavilion is?"
Xie Wan frowned slightly, and then said: "Wanhua Pavilion is in the Heavenly Empire, I have only heard of it, there are often auctions of some things, so many wealthy businessmen and wealthy families will appear on that kind of occasion, why would they suddenly ask me this?"
Lin Qi shook his head, not wanting Xie Wan to worry about him, so he smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just heard people on the street mention it today, and I feel curious!"
"Oh!" Xie Wan didn't continue to ask, lowered her head and continued to eat.
The first thing now is to send Lin Qi to the Spirit Immortal Soul Academy, because this is also her dream.
Dream is a hypocritical thing when you say it, it is a seed born in the dark, only when it breaks through the ground, grows out of joints, and one day blooms into flowers, in order to let everyone know in a bright light.
Until then, there is no choice but to persevere.
