Volume 2 Rebirth Chapter 066 Gossip
It took a lot of effort for Shang Xiaodie to bring Li Kun back to the City God Temple and place him in his "home". Since then, he has taken care of Li Kun carefully, and looks forward to a miracle every day, so that Li Kun can wake up as soon as possible.
Shang Xiaodie was originally a little girl, and she was a little reluctant to even take care of herself, but now she has to take care of a living dead, which is naturally very hard. However, Shang Xiaodie has no complaints, but is very satisfied.
Of course, this so-called care doesn't add to the burden of Shang Xiaodie's life. Because Li Kun didn't need to eat, drink, and Lazar, he just lay there motionless all day long. Shang Xiaodie only needs to scrub his body every day, turn him over and massage him often, talk to him, and so on.
These are all things that Shang Xiaodie has to do to take care of the living dead after hearing from others, and it is said that this will help him wake up sooner.
Undoubtedly, Shang Xiaodie did a very good job. She was now accustomed to having an extra companion in the house, even though that companion was a living dead no different from a corpse.
Of course, no one knew about Shang Xiaodie's secret care of Li Kun. It wasn't difficult for Shang Xiaodie to hide this, and no one dared to come to the City God Temple where she lived. Moreover, she is now famous, and everyone regards her as a "monster" who is in the company of ghosts, and ordinary people naturally dare not provoke her.
Day after day, two months passed before I knew it. And Li Kun still hasn't changed in the slightest. Shang Xiaodie's mentality slowly became calmer, and she was not as eager as before. She was even mentally prepared that Li Kun would never wake up, but she would not give up. Unless she can be sure that Li Kun is really dead.
Although Li Kun's body showed no signs of deterioration, there was also no sign of improvement. In particular, a strange phenomenon in him made Shang Xiaodie quite uneasy. That is, two months have passed, and the scars on Li Kun's body have still not healed.
It is common sense that the healing of physical wounds is a bodily function and does not require the control of human consciousness. If the scar does not heal, it can only mean that his body has lost the ability to heal. And there is only one possibility for this loss of function, and that is death.
For Shang Xiaodie, actually having to deal with a corpse doesn't cause her any discomfort. However, if Li Kun is really dead, there is no need to stay by her side all the time, because she does not have a perverted hobby like necrophilia.
For this reason, Shang Xiaodie decides to determine from a scientific point of view whether Li Kun is really dead.
Who would have the authority to do so? Shang Xiaodie naturally thought of the doctor.
And in this Xianju Town, the most famous doctor is naturally Liu Shiyuan.
For this reason, Shang Xiaodie plans to find Liu Shiyuan.
Although Shang Xiaodie didn't want others to know that Li Kun was here, she was confident that she could still control Liu Shiyuan, and she didn't have to worry that he would deliberately leak the news.
However, to Shang Xiaodie's surprise, Liu Shiyuan has disappeared, and according to his neighbors, Liu Shiyuan has been missing for more than three months. This surprised Shang Xiaodie.
Of course, Liu Shiyuan's inexplicable disappearance will not cause many waves in Xianju Town, because, although he is a famous doctor, he has a strange temperament, and he does not have the benevolence of a respectable doctor. In addition, he was alone and had no family, so no one really cared about his disappearance. If he hadn't been needed at this time, Fluttershy wouldn't have known about his disappearance. It shows that it doesn't have much sense of existence in this Xianju Town.
"This dead rat, when he doesn't need you, he dangles in front of his aunt and grandmother every day, and when he needs you, he doesn't know where he died. ”
Shang Xiaodie scolded Liu Shiyuan in her heart, but she was helpless.
Liu Shiyuan can't be found, and for Shang Xiaodie, it becomes another problem to determine whether Li Kun is really dead or fake. In this Xianju Town, apart from Liu Shiyuan, she didn't know who she could go to.
Shang Xiaodie is very annoyed, kicking the pebbles on her toes, and walking down the street in distress.
Suddenly, the smell of wine entered her nose, and she was refreshed. She hadn't drunk for a long time, and she was in a depressed mood today, so she might as well go and drink a pot.
At this time, Shang Xiaodie didn't care about everyone's strange eyes on her, so she simply didn't care about anything and walked straight into the door of the restaurant.
Shang Xiaodie's presence in Xianju Town is quite special, and it feels very mysterious to everyone. Everyone knows that she is the eldest lady of the merchant fort, and they all know the fact that she was kicked out of the house by the merchant fort. But, despite this, no one dared to despise her and abuse her. Because, everyone knows that Shang Bao is mysterious and powerful, and they don't know why Shang Xiaodie was kicked out of the house.
Everyone is not stupid, they all understand a truth, and their arms do not turn out. Even if the people in Fort Merchant can bully her, it doesn't mean that others can bully her. After all, she is the eldest lady of the merchant castle, and this fact can never be changed. So, who knows when she'll go home again?
In addition, there is another fact that everyone can see, that is, although Shang Xiaodie was kicked out of the merchant fort, lived in the City God Temple, and lived the life of a street child, she did not make a living by begging. This made everyone believe that Fort Merchant's life was still secretly funding her life.
Therefore, no one dares to offend Fluttershy with such disdain.
In addition, after the last incident of Shang Xiaodie's Pear Fragrance Courtyard, everyone seems to understand a little, this Shang Xiaodie has an ability, and she is likely to be practicing a strange technique that is very different from the merchant castle, which is not tolerated by the merchant castle.
With this realization, everyone is less and less afraid to despise Shang Xiaodie. He was even more in awe of her than before, and of course, the way he looked at Shang Xiaodie was inevitably a little strange.
At this time, when the hotel junior saw Shang Xiaodie, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, and greeted him enthusiastically and almost stammered: "Miss Shang, I haven't seen you patronize our store for a long time." Why do you have time to come here today?"
Shang Xiaodie didn't pay attention to the shopkeeper, and glanced around the store, and found that there were already a lot of people, and there were still two empty tables in the corner on the right, but there was a middle-aged Taoist priest sitting there eating quietly.
In this Xianju Town, there are often passers-by, and it is not surprising that everyone has them. Compared to the noise in other places, the Daoist was still a little quiet, so Shang Xiaodie ignored it and walked straight to the empty table next to the Daoist and sat down.
"The old rule, a pot of old wine. Shang Xiaodie instructed Xiao Erdao.
The shopkeeper hurriedly agreed, and then asked, "What kind of appetizer does Miss Shang need?"
Shang Xiaodie said, "No, this girl only eats wine today." ”
The shopkeeper stopped being verbose and hurriedly went to get a pot of old wine.
At this time, the store was full of people, and they were actually talking about the slaughter of Lijia Village by wandering bandits.
Shang Xiaodie frowned slightly, and listened inadvertently while drinking the sullen wine.
"The fact that Lijia Village was slaughtered by wandering bandits turned out to be true! This is also incredible, doesn't it mean that Li Qingshan is very powerful? Why can't even the bandits be defeated?"
"Come on, do you really believe that they are wandering bandits? Then Lijia Village is just some poor mountain people, where is there any money to attract bandits? In my opinion, nine times out of ten it is a vendetta. ”
That makes sense, and I think so too. ”
"Cut, you're guessing. Li Qingshan is a disciple of the Cloud Gate Sect, he has lived in Lijia Village for almost twenty years, he has always been kind and kind, how can he have enemies?"
"That must be the enemy of the Cloud Gate Sect. ”
"It makes even less sense. What kind of existence is the Cloud Gate Sect? How can ordinary people afford to offend it? If it is really the enemy of the Cloud Gate Sect, then it must be extremely powerful. Even if a force like that wants to take revenge, it should go to the Cloud Gate Sect, but come to kill a disciple who is buying medicinal herbs outside?
"Yes, yes, I don't think it's going to be an enemy, it's going to be a bandit. In the past two years, natural disasters have continued, and it is the time when roving bandits are rampant. ”
"Don't mess around, everyone, I still have that question. After all, Li Qingshan is a disciple of the Cloud Gate Sect, and he must be very powerful, how could he not even be able to defeat a few bandits?
"Yes, yes, Liu Datou, you said that it was a bandit, how could a bandit beat Li Qingshan? I still think it's not a bandit, but a vendetta. ”
"You don't know, Li Qingshan is not in the village at all, and went to the Cloud Gate Sect to report on his work. He would return to his mentorship every year to report on his work. It's not a secret at all, everyone knows it. ”
"No wonder!"
"Then where is Li Qingshan at this time? It's been three months, why don't you see him come back?"
"This- I don't know. ”
"There's so much unbelievable about it. ”
"In my opinion, I'm afraid this Xianju Town will not be peaceful, this matter will definitely not pass like this, after all, it is not an ordinary village, it involves the Cloud Gate Sect. ”
"Yes, I also think it's strange, it's been three months, it stands to reason that the Cloud Gate Sect should have known about it a long time ago, why haven't they taken action yet?
"Yes. When you say that, I think of a possibility. Maybe Li Qingshan was not a disciple of the Cloud Gate Sect at all, but just a genuine pharmacist, and he deliberately used the guise of the Cloud Gate Sect to elevate his identity and facilitate the purchase of medicinal materials. ”
"Damn, old Jin, your guess is bold enough, maybe that's really the case. Otherwise, after so many years, we only heard that Li Qingshan was a disciple of the Cloud Gate Sect, why has no one ever seen him perform martial arts?"
The man's suspicion immediately ignited everyone's excitement, and everyone echoed it. Soon, a man of considerable prestige was told beyond recognition by a group of boring drunkards.
Shang Xiaodie couldn't listen to it anymore, so she stood up abruptly and scolded angrily, "You guys are so boring?
