Chapter Forty-Eight: The Storm Comes East
"Mei'er, let's go into the mountains to find something good. ”
Hu Mei'er, who was still catching up on sleep in the house, suddenly exclaimed, "Brother, I haven't eaten lunch yet! Mei'er is so hungry!"
"Come out quickly!" Zhao Qi urged impatiently, he knew Hu Meier's lazy temperament too well, and he swore hard in the morning, and only when he returned to the room began to fall asleep, Zhao Qi could hear a deep whirring sound through a door.
Hu Meier's face was depressed, and she opened the door reluctantly, with resentment in her eyes, as if people who were not familiar with Hu Meier thought that this thing had suffered a lot of grievances.
Zhao Qi unceremoniously debunked the cheating Hu Mei'er, "Please wipe the saliva from the corners of your mouth when you complain next time." Her hair is messed up, and the little girl's sleep is so ugly. How embarrassed are you to go out and meet people. ”
"What's wrong with me!" Hu Mei'er glanced at her sideburns dissatisfiedly, pinned the messy green silk behind her ears, and snorted confidently.
"Oh, what's wrong with the little brother? Mei'er girl is so smart and cute, it's not right for you to be a man and a girl. ”
"It's none of your business. ”
Zhao Qi glanced at Li Hu who came uninvited at the door angrily, Zhao Qi was accustomed to Li Hu's behavior of currying favor with Hu Meier, knowing that Li Hu and Wu Lei must have something serious to visit, Zhao Qi no longer bothered with Hu Meier,
"What are you doing here?"
"Little brother, there are a lot of martial artists in Yong'an City this morning, all of them are not weak, I am a little worried, so I want to ask the little brother if he knows what the reason is. ”
Li Hu didn't go around the bend with Zhao Qi, and went straight to the point and told him in detail about this morning's events.
"How do I know this, I haven't been in the city for a few days, I'll ask Mei'er to help you investigate. After that, he turned his head to Hu Mei'er and ordered: "Mei'er, go and grab someone and ask, don't worry Brother Li." ”
"Hmph! Hu Meier pouted and muttered dissatisfiedly, but her hands did not stop, and she disappeared in front of everyone.
Li Hu and Wu Lei, who saw the magical spell in one hand, had hot eyes for a while, and couldn't help but admire: "Fairy Hu is really capable! This elusive method makes people sigh and can't be in a hurry, when will mortals like us be able to have such cultivation!"
"Haunted?"
Zhao Qi raised his foot and kicked the empty space in front of him, and drank: "What are you grinding, don't catch it yet, we still have business in the afternoon!"
When Li Hu and Wu Lei were still wondering who Zhao Qi was talking to, a graceful transparent light curtain suddenly appeared in front of them, "Oops!", a miserable scream, Hu Meier complained, "Brother, you kicked me again!"
After noticing that there was no breath of Hu Mei'er around, Zhao Qicai sat down next to Shi Zhuo slowly, "Why are you still stupid? Sit down, she will come back in a while." ”
"Oh, oh, oh, my little brother hasn't seen his strength soar for a few days! I wonder if I can teach Brother Li a few tricks?"
Although Wu Lei did not speak beside him, his eager eyes also revealed the eagerness and hope in his heart.
"You can't learn, you're in your thirties and forties, so let's live a good life! ”
"Yes, yes, since the little brother said that it will do us all kinds of harm and no benefit, then we will not learn. Li Hu has a lot of trust in Zhao Qi, Zhao Qi's judgment has not been wrong once in the past few years, and many troubles encountered by Li Hu have also been solved by Zhao Qi.
In less than half an hour, Hu Meier fell from the roof to the courtyard, and said easily: "Brother, that group of people is here to hunt for treasures, I heard that there is a Dongtian Daozi who put a secret book in Yong'an City, and those who are destined to get it." They're all here to find it. Why don't we look for them, I don't think they're as strong as me, let's go grab them!"
Zhao Qi's face was pale, he listened to Hu Mei'er silently, looked at the sky and said, "Li Changming, you are really flawed!"
"Hah, Li Changming, is that little Taoist priest in the morning? Didn't he say that it was his last book? When he left, he still put it in the back basket? Besides, there was nothing in that book, ah, there was ...... in it."
Thinking of the content of that book, Hu Mei'er suddenly covered her mouth, stared at Zhao Qi anxiously with wide eyes, Zhao Qi sighed helplessly, and continued: "Don't worry, two old brothers, these people are here to find things, and if they can't find them, they will leave." Go back. ”
"Alright, little brother, come and play with us when you have time! ”
Seeing that Zhao Qidu said that there was nothing wrong, Li Hu and Wu Lei went back with confidence, leaving two people with gradually solemn faces, "Brother, if they find that book, won't your life experience be exposed? ”
What should I do? Zhao Qi's first thought was to kill them all, don't look at Zhao Qi has always been very kind, and when he caught the little monsters, he just cleaned up and let them go, and the requirements for Hu Meier were the same, but if it really threatened his own safety, or even the safety of the people of Yong'an, Zhao Qi's iron-blooded side was also ruthless.
But Zhao Qi didn't dare to make a rash move now, he didn't know if these people had a background, once they provoked a stronger enemy, it would only be the people of Yong'an who would suffer. Thinking of this, Zhao Qi commanded softly: "Help me monitor each of them, if anyone dares to harm the people of Yong'an, kill them on the spot." Remember, don't expose yourself when you make a move. ”
Hu Meier knew that Zhao Qi was not talking to herself, but to a mysterious person, so she chose to stand aside quietly and wait for Zhao Qi to arrange things.
"Mei'er, let's go! go get some good things to make up for it today. ”
"Brother, are you okay? Hu Meier was suddenly a little afraid of Zhao Qi, whose strength was far weaker than herself, and Zhao Qi had an inexplicable majesty around her that made her tremble, and asked timidly.
Noticing Hu Mei'er's abnormality, Zhao Qi's cold expression slowly melted, "I'm fine, just a group of ants that don't have long eyes." ”
Although Zhao Qi looked as usual on the surface, he had quietly sentenced the Taoist Li Changming to the crime of Ling Chi in his heart, the dragon has reverse scales, and he will die if he touches it. Li Changming's small tricks completely annoyed Zhao Qi, and the new hatred and old hatred seemed to be looking for Daomen to settle it clearly.
At the door of the rabbit nest, the rabbit spirit is bored basking in the sun, there are many people in the family recently, she can't lazily sunbathe, rare to be free, the rabbit spirit specially picked a large stone slab, spread a layer of grass, ready to sleep beautifully.
Suddenly, the rabbit spirit felt a burning sensation coming from his hand, "Wow, it's so hot! ”
The rabbit spirit saw the fire on the side of his hand, and jumped up in fright, pinching his waist with his angry hands, and looking around.
"Well, I remember that the rabbit didn't have such a big temper at the beginning, and I felt like I was terrible. Mei'er, did you take her badly?"
"Well, no. Think about who took her to the north and south to rob the house. ”
"Uh, skip that topic. ”
Zhao Qi walked out of the woods slowly, "Dead rabbit, you can! Now you are very powerful, what about the snake spirit?"
"He went back with his injuries. ”
The rabbit guessed that the arrivals were Zhao Qi and Hu Meier, and said without surprise.
"Alas, the poor snake spirit, who sacrificed his life for the sake of the person he liked, was driven away as soon as he was wounded. Alas, miserable!"
Hearing this, the rabbit spirit became anxious, and hurriedly explained: "What are you talking nonsense, I can't do anything with him, how can the rabbit be with the snake." ”
"Come on, you can do your own business, anyway, someone has already secretly sold you, let's go get some good things today, and the dead rabbit will lead the way quickly." ”
"Who wants to sell me? Sister Mei'er, did you make some ulterior deal with the snake spirit? I won't pay any attention to you anymore. ”
The rabbit spirit is not stupid, from Zhao Qi's words and the fact that Hu Meier and the snake spirit have been very close in the past few days, the rabbit spirit knows that Hu Meier has sold herself, and she walks forward angrily, and she has no heart to extinguish the raging fire behind her, I really don't know what to sleep in the nest at night.
"Brother, do you know again?"
"Hehe, your brother and I are so smart, I don't know your little Jiujiu. Why don't you apologize quickly? Matchmakers are not so easy to be. ......”
