Walking out of the door of the Home Inn, Bai Qi looked back at the Home Inn, in the corridor on the second floor, Bai Yu stood there alone, quietly watching Bai Qi.

Then, Bai Yu, who was upstairs, nodded slightly.

Call!

Bai Qi exhaled heavily, resolutely turned around, and took firm steps towards the Water Cloud Sect.

Walking on the street, a cold wind blew, and Bai Qi couldn't help but tighten the clothes on his body to prevent the biting cold from coming into contact with the skin through the gaps in the clothes.

I don't know if it's because of the early hours or because of the cold weather, there are only a few people on the street now.

Bai Qi, who was walking against the cold wind, suddenly raised his head, as if he had thought of something.

"By the way, you have to count how many talismans you have!" After muttering to himself, Bai Qi took out the talisman prepared in advance from the storage ring.

White Tiger Talisman, three.

Star-sucking soul charms, three.

Soul Talismans, four.

Karma Fire Talisman, six.

Bunch Talismans, six.

Teleporter, 10 sheets.

White charms, four sheets.

Explosive charms, several.

Divine Charms, several.

Fixation, sure enough.

Restorers, five.

After the inventory was completed, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief, if nothing else, these should be enough.

After putting the other talismans back in the storage ring, he looked at the five recovery talismans in his hand and sighed in vain.

"It's a pity that the recovery charm doesn't work......"

Bai Qi remembered that when Long Hanyan taught him to draw a recovery talisman, he once said that as his strength became stronger, the source qi of this low-level recovery talisman would also decrease.

With his current strength, if he uses this recovery charm, it is estimated that he can only recover one layer at most.

"Help, don't kill me!"

When Bai Qi was looking at the recovery charm, he suddenly heard a cry for help from the alley in front of him.

He hurriedly put the recovery charm into the storage ring, ran towards the alley in front of him, and then hid at the corner of the alley to observe the specific situation inside.

I saw that in the alley, a short-haired and vicious man, wearing a cotton coat inside, a black robe outside, and a dagger in his hand, was walking towards a woman step by step.

This woman, at the moment, was facing away from Bai Qi, her long hair, tied into a ponytail, hanging behind her, and as she stepped back, the ponytail also swayed.

She was dressed in white linen, but unlike the man, she was thin.

I don't know if she was frightened by the fierce man, or frozen by the cold weather, her body trembled slightly.

Since this woman is facing away from Bai Qi, Bai Qi doesn't know what the other party looks like, judging from the height and back, she should be a small and delicate woman.

"Please, let me go, I'm not the daughter of Li Tiezhu in your mouth, you must have recognized the wrong person! My name is Zuo Qin! My father's name is Zuo Qin!" The woman, who claimed to be Zuo Qin, saw the man's fierce expression and was about to turn around and run away.

But where would the man let her escape, and at the moment Zuo Qin turned around, the man grabbed her ponytail.

"Ahh

His hair was caught, Zuo Qin was in pain, he couldn't help screaming, and his footsteps also retreated.

"Don't fool me there, hurry up and ask your father to hand over the money, otherwise I will sell you to the Qinglou!" The man viciously intimidated Zuo Qin.

"I'm really not Li Tiehammer's daughter......" Hearing the man say that he wanted to sell her to the Qinglou, Zuo Qin was instantly frightened and burst into tears.

What is that?

Bai Qi, who was hiding at the corner of the alley, had a somewhat puzzled expression after hearing the man say the word Qinglou.

Since he was a child, he has been staying in the small village of Hexu Village, and naturally he has never heard anyone talk about Qinglou, and the books he read when he was a child have been screened by his mother Chen Xueping layer by layer, so he has no idea about things related to Qinglou.

"Don't admit it, do you?" the fierce man sneered and said, "Since you don't want to tell me where your father is, then don't blame me!"

As he spoke, the man let go of Zuoqin's braids, grabbed her arm, turned around and dragged her out of the alley.

Seeing this, where did he dare to continue to hide, he cleared his throat, stood up straight, with a trace of anger on his face, and shouted loudly: "Stop!"

Hearing a voice behind him, the man stopped, turned his head and glanced at the white of his eyes.

After seeing Bai Qi walking towards him, he dragged Zuo Qin, turned around, and faced Bai Qi with a hint of threat on his face.

After the two turned around, Bai Qi saw the woman's appearance clearly.

In terms of face alone, Zuo Qin's appearance can be regarded as a beauty.

The thin body, the red face from the cold, the misty eyes, and the panicked expression gave people a feeling of pity.

"Boy, who are you?" the man was stunned at first when he saw the scar on the left side of Bai Qi's face, and then spoke.

"I'm just a passerby, but I don't see a bully like you. Bai Qi put his hands behind his back, his eyes were deep, and his face was unfathomable.

Ever since he was in Guanmu Mountain and saw the action of the Nine Girls, he was fascinated by this action, and he would imitate it from time to time.

"Boy, don't think that if you have a scar on your face, you want to learn from other people's heroes to save beauty. Speaking of this, the man suddenly paused, glanced at Zuoqin, and then looked at Bai Qi and said: "A little brat, the hair has not grown, and when I saw that this woman was a little beautiful, I wanted to come and join blindly." ”

Bai Qi's face turned black!

What was this man thinking? He didn't even think about it.

"Childe save me!" After Zuo Qin saw Bai Qi appear, it was like seeing a life-saving straw, and a look of surprise appeared on her pretty face, which was red from the cold.

"This eldest brother, why do you want to take her away? I don't think the eldest brother is a big traitor, I think there must be a reason. Bai Qi arched his hand to the man, with a smile on his face, and said in a polite tone.

"Hmph!" Seeing Bai Qi's kind tone, the man's expression slowed down, and he snorted coldly and said: "Her gambler father, Li Tiehammer, came to our gambling house to gamble, but lost, owed us a thousand taels of silver, and said that he would repay the money in three months, but it has been more than half a year, and there is still no response, so our shopkeeper called me to collect debts." ”

"Then have you ever seen or heard that Li Tiezhu has a daughter?" Bai Qi nodded and then asked.

"Why haven't you seen it? Once I saw Li Tiezhu and her shopping on the street!" the man glanced at Zuo Qin next to him and retorted dissatisfiedly.

"Oh? That's a bit weird. Hearing this, Bai Qi raised his eyebrows, his eyes moved back and forth on Zuo Qin and the others, and said suspiciously: "You said that you have seen her and Li Tiehammer buy things together, but her surname is Zuo, and her father is called Zuo, who is telling lies?"

Seeing this, Zuo Qin's face suddenly became anxious, and he said in a panic: "Childe, what I said is true, my father is called left and right, if you don't believe it, you can ask my neighbors!"

"Don't look at me, do you think it's necessary for me to tell a lie?" the man said lightly when he saw Bai Qi, looking at himself.

It seems that the only way to know who is true and who is false is to go to the girl's house and meet her father. Bai Qi clasped his hands to his chest and smiled slightly.

After Bai Qi proposed to go to Zuoqin's house and meet her father, neither Zuoqin nor the man objected.

So, under the leadership of Zuo Qin, Bai Qi and the man came to Zuo Qin's house.

Zuoqin's home is extremely simple, it is a thatched house, there are not even walls, only four pillars, and it is ventilated on all sides.

From the outside, it is clear that there is almost no furniture in the room, only a table that has been stripped of paint, and a broken leg that has been cushioned with a stone, which ensures that the table is balanced and does not tilt.

To the left of the table was a simple stove, and the pot was steaming, and it seemed that the fire in the stove had just been extinguished.

Bai Qi followed Zuoqin into her house, only to find that she didn't even have a bed at home, and it could be said that she was destitute.

In the northeast corner of the thatched hut, a pile of hay is placed.

"Dad, wake up, there's a guest coming. Zuo Qin brushed aside the hay on the surface, revealing a middle-aged man.

Looking at it from a white perspective, this middle-aged man should be Zuoqin's father, left and right.

The middle-aged man was wearing a black tattered robe, curled up, lying in a haystack, as if because Zuo Qin had pushed away the hay covering his body, felt the cold, and shivered slightly.

"Dad, wake up!" Zuo Qin shook his left and right bodies with his hands.

"What's wrong?Is the rice cooked?" opened his eyes left and right, and looked at Zuoqin in a daze.

"There are guests coming. Zuo Qin pointed at Bai Qi and the fierce man standing outside the house.

Standing up left and right, he looked at Bai Qi with a puzzled face, and then looked at the man standing outside the room.

After seeing the man's face clearly, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said in surprise: "Zhao Ergou, why are you here?"

After saying this, the left and right seemed to remember something, their faces changed, and they turned around and ran.

But the man named Zhao Ergou obviously wouldn't let him go, and before he could run ten steps left and right, Zhao Ergou had already caught up with him and dragged him back into the house.

When Bai Qi saw this scene, he glanced at Zuoqin, obviously Zuoqin was lying.

But something is wrong, normally speaking, if she is telling a lie, when she hears that Bai Qi and Zhao Ergou are going to her house. It's going to be empty-hearted.

But on the way to Zuoqin's house, there was not the slightest panic on her face.

"Li Tiezhu, when will you pay back the money you owe to our gambling house?" After dragging the left and right back to the house, Zhao Ergou grabbed him tightly, for fear that he would run away.

"Look at my house, if there is anything valuable, you just take ......"

Sighed left and right, his legs were weak, he sat on the ground, his face was full of despair, with his condition, if he wanted to take out a thousand taels, I am afraid it would be difficult to ascend to the sky.

He glanced at Zhao Ergou and Bai Qi, slapped himself three times, and said in a trembling voice: "It's all to blame for my gambling addiction, passing by the gambling house, my hands began to itch, I was thinking of gambling with a fake name, Apocalypse City is so big, you will definitely not find me, but after losing money and leaving the gambling house, I regret it......"

Seeing this, Bai Qi sighed in his heart, did not choose to stay longer, turned around and left.

It is only natural to repay debts.

He had no right to blame Zhao Ergou for doing something wrong.

And he, although he is rich, but in this case, he is also a white gang, who knows if he will gamble?

He's not like White Rain!

"There's no money to do, sell your daughter to the Qinglou, I believe she can sell it for a lot of money with her appearance. Zhao Ergou looked at Zuo Qin carefully and said.

Bai Qi, who had already walked out of the thatched house, paused for a moment after hearing this, shook his head, and then continued to walk forward.
