Chapter 240: Don't be a Dao Gu today
"Then, in your opinion, is there anything strange about Feixian Tower?"
"It's strange, I can't tell. ”
Fox Qi scratched his head and recalled carefully: "The pomp is quite big, and it cost a lot of silver at first glance. Luxurious, splendid, and frequented by the rich, it's a high-end place frequented by the rich, and it's so expensive that it's worth a few dozen taels of anything to open your mouth. ”
"It's sour later, let's talk about what's strange first!"
Hu Qi thought about it seriously: "That small building is in the shape of a zigzag, and in the middle is a three- or four-story tall statue of a big flying god, with three heads and six arms. ”
"Flying?"
Shen Li couldn't help but be stunned, this really sounded fresh.
"He was white-skinned, beautiful, plump, and held six different musical instruments in each of his six hands. Hu Qi said, while gesturing with a general appearance: "Speaking of which, Feitian is also a god in the Western Buddhist country, but it is always strange to put it in this kind of sound and color place." ”
"It's weird indeed. ”
"At first, I also thought so, if it was a black shop opened by a group of monsters, I would also be a demon, I was familiar with the routines of demons, it was impossible not to see it! Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if I am shallow, I really can't see it, then Yan Shuling is a disciple of the famous exorcist ancestor, she can't and can't see it, right?"
Shen Li touched his chin and bowed his head silently.
"You wait. ”
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Li turned around and entered the back room. Hu Qi's face was inexplicable, and he waited patiently for a long time, and saw that she took out a soft satin cloth bag, and opened it layer by layer in front of him, and it was a pile of ingots of different sizes!
"Wow. ”
Hu Qi, who was born as a poor monster, had two eyes shining, a happy face, and pointed to himself: "This, it's all for me?"
Shen Li nodded, and took out another silver ticket from his sleeve: "There are still a thousand taels here." ”
That's, it's weird, isn't it?!
"Really?...... All of them, give it to me?"
Hu Qi suddenly felt a little weak: It is said that there must be a demon when things go wrong! There must be a conspiracy! It must be so.
Although Shen Li has turned over and become a rich person in this life, how picky she is, Hu Qi has seen it with her own eyes! For that little bit of grain and rice, I really can't wait to beat out all the of this group of bandits! In front of her, one thousand taels of silver tickets, as well as these large and small ingots on the table, to say the least, there are five or six hundred taels, probably all her savings, right?
Shen Li thought he was too little, and said helplessly: "Our family is quite rich, but my mother is in charge of it! I have ten taels of money per month, plus the red envelopes I get for festivals and birthdays, and the ladder money that my father usually secretly stuffs into me......"
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. ”
Hu Qi hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt her: "You suddenly took all your belongings to me to investigate the case, which makes me feel a lot of pressure!"
"I don't think you're going in the wrong direction. Shen Li said: "There are too many doubts, there must be a problem." If others can't find out, they don't have the ability!"
Suddenly, he was praised, and there was a silver pair of white flowers in front of him, but Hu Qi was in a complicated mood: "The situation that so many people can't break, can I do it?"
Shen Li smiled:
"What are you afraid of? You can't, and Yan Shuling! Yan Shuling can't either, doesn't she have her master? Anyway, if I invest this money, I don't worry at all that it will lose my money! Wulingguan is a big rich man, and that shameless old man dares to owe me money, see if I don't tear up his lair!"
It turns out that she is holding this bad!
If this thing is done, Zhao Teng will naturally come out to pay the bill; if it doesn't work, Yan Shuling will lose face, and Wuling Shenjun will have to come out and settle it in person-this ghost girl has been planning for so long, isn't it just to force him to show up in the end!
Thinking of this, Hu Qi nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and happily pocketed the silver and silver tickets on the table. Anyway, this money will definitely not be lost! Hu Qi was happy in his heart, but he heard Shen Li say slowly:
"Ah, so Yan Shuling is standing on Zhao Teng?"
His fingertips stiffened, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart: "Yes...... Yes. ”
Shen Li nodded: "If I were her, I would also stand Zhao Teng." ”
Fox Qi blinked, and for a while he couldn't understand whether she was talking back or what she meant, and said tentatively with a little weakness: "Why?"
"Zhao Teng's father, King Shun, has a very rich fief and is close to the capital - well-informed and rich, it must be able to afford the most luxurious staff lineup in the world, and he can take advantage of the world's famous people in his pocket and take advantage of the opportunity. He must have paid a lot of money to ask Yan Shuling to go out of the mountain to help, such a generous condition, in other words, I will definitely agree! If he is decent, and he has money, the odds of winning are great, and the work is easy, why don't he go?"
"Then why didn't you choose him?"
Shen Li looked at him with disdain: "The problem is that I am not Yan Shuling! If I go to vote for Zhao Teng, people can only treat me as a maid, and if I mix well, I will be a concubine without a name; if I am lucky, I will be able to mix with a concubine in the future after giving birth to a son! When Zhao Teng ascends the throne, I will start tossing around in the harem! After fighting the concubine and the concubine, I will defeat the concubine and the queen...... A group of women are full and have nothing to do and fight around, but they are really idle. ”
Frankly speaking, he doesn't understand the thinking of these two women very well: one is Yan Shuling, who is tall and arrogant, and a fairy-like outsider, and there is no need to step in for a few stinky money to contaminate the world, while the other is smart, smart, rich, and good-looking, lacking nothing, purely not steaming steamed buns to fight for breath, or tossing to do things.
Alas.
However, it is also said that Hu Qi has been staying in Juxian Building for a few days, and he has seen all kinds of immortals, monks and Taoists recruited by Zhao Teng, including his staff Keqing, except for a gray-haired goddess, all of them are men. Speaking of which, even if a girl has great ability, she goes to work as a staff member in the palace of the prince and noble?
Shen Li said again: "Instead of this, I might as well choose Zhao Su, who is more controllable! Although he had a bad start, some masters told me that the key to winning or losing this battle for the heir is not strength! So, I just need to help him save his life, save worry and effort!"
Hu Qi didn't understand her logic a little: "Have you noticed that you and Yan Shuling may seem to be ...... It's like you're on two opposing sides?"
Shen Li disagreed: "That's just right! When Zhao Su ascends the throne in the future, he will be able to smoothly level Wuling Guan in chapters! Who let her stand on the wrong side." ”
Three pieces of sweat immediately hung on the door of the fox Qi's head. He can see it: these two women, neither of them is easy to mess with! I just keep my mouth shut, in short, I will do everything you ask me to do, and no one will be offended.
He made up his mind and cleanly put away the last piece of broken silver, not even daring to raise his eyelids: "If there is nothing else, then I will ......"
"You wait. ”
Shen Li stopped him, walked closer, took off a pendant around his neck, and hung it around his neck: "You wear this thing." ”
Hu Qi looked down and saw that it was the demon pestle she used to tear her own skin, and she couldn't help frowning: "You're not mistaken, right?"
"Huh?"
"First of all, I'm a demon, there's no demon in the world who will hang this play, okay?" Hu Qi said with a serious face and an accentuated tone: "Secondly, this is still a copycat." ”
"I know, but if it's true, do you dare to wear it?"
Fox Qi made a bitter face: "Then you are deliberately playing tricks on me?"
"Not really. ”
Shen Li smiled and explained: "Although the things are not valuable, the water beads are also highly imitated, and the mana is not effective from time to time - however, this is made by Mu Bai. ”
When Hu Qi heard this, he curiously took the object in his hand and looked at it carefully. If it's useless, it seems to have a hidden mana, and if it's useful, as a demon pestle, it hangs on the neck of a serious fox demon, and it doesn't even react at all?
Shen Li's eyes fell on the bright red gem, and he instantly recalled the beautiful scenery of ten miles of red makeup in Wuling City that day. The eyes are full of vigorous red, just like the mighty love in her heart. She never doubted his feelings for her, and she knew that no matter what danger she was in, he must be the most solid and reliable, and he would definitely fight for her and take her out of danger.
But now, the man had left her, and he refused to see her again.
Unexpectedly, this was the last gift he gave her.
Hu Qi was still waiting for her to say the following, but when she saw that her eyes were stagnant, and her thoughts seemed to be far away, she knew that as soon as she mentioned the name, she was uneasy, so she explained:
"Since he gave it to you, take it well, what will you do for me?"
Shen Li didn't pay attention to what he said, his fingertips gently rubbed the bright red gem, and the familiar gentle face and his scarred back came to his mind. An indescribable sadness welled up in her heart, and she lowered her eyes, biting her lip and saying nothing.
Seeing that she was so sad that tears were almost about to flow down at that time, Hu Qiyi was at a loss, neither persuaded nor wiping tears, and finally hesitated for a long time, and finally opened his arms to hold her into his arms, patted her on the back, and whispered in her ear to comfort:
"I know that although you have put cruel words on your lips, you can't let go of him in your heart. Or...... I'll take you to Wulingguan, you meet and make it clear what you want to say and what you should say, okay?"
Shen Li buried his face in Fox Qi's shoulders, which were not too broad, and sobbed silently for a while, and slowly spit out two words:
"Don't. ”
Hu Qi's brows were knotted, and he said with a bitter face: "...... Why bother?"
"There's nothing to say. ”
When she left his embrace and straightened up again, her eyes were already extremely determined: "What I am going to do is not just to be angry with him, let alone to make trouble, but there are sufficient and necessary reasons to do so." ”
"Good, good. Fox Qi nodded: "Anyway, I don't care! as long as you think clearly, as long as you can be happy, let me do anything!"
When Shen Li heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "You are really a good lover." ”
"I'm good at making people happy. Fox Qi said proudly.
Shen Li hid the small demon slaying pestle into his neckline, raised his head and said, "This thing is for you, it's not for you to catch monsters! Mu Bai had been carrying it with him for a long time, and it was contaminated with the immortal aura on his body. In the future, if that cold-blooded Dao Gu turns against you and wants to subdue you, take it out, maybe she can save a small life. ”
When Hu Qi heard this, he immediately glanced at her: "Your worries are superfluous! Sister Fairy is not that kind of person." ”
Shen Li sneered: "Don't you know the tradition of their master?—— she is ruthless and ruthless! I hope that in the future, even if she is for the sake of the master, she can let you live!"
"Where's it like you say......"
Hu Qi originally wanted to defend Yan Shuling for a few words, but seeing that the tears on her long eyelashes had not dried, he couldn't bear it in his heart, so he changed his words and said, "Okay, it's good if you're happy." ”
Shen Li nodded with satisfaction and patted him on the shoulder: "When investigating the case, you don't always have to think about saving me money-if it's not enough!
Fox Qi patted the treasure bag with a smile: "Don't worry!"
Coming out of Shen Li's house, the sunlight outside was just right, and the sky was clear.
Fox Qi jumped onto the roof, just about to lift himself to the clouds, but suddenly saw a person standing at the top of the roof, holding his hands, looking at Shen Li's half-hidden screen.
Wearing a snow-white robe, a cloud jade belt around his waist, a head full of silver silk tied on the top of his head, wearing a gold crown inlaid with jade, and a beaded spike belt fluttering lightly in the wind, a good pair of fairy wind bones.
This is not an ordinary immortal who can stand on the roof of someone's house casually.
