Chapter 15: Cui's
Ghost Forest
After walking out of the ghost forest for some distance, Li Wantao ordered his domestic slaves to rest in place after setting up a defensive array around them. In the past few days, the day and night and the battle have made Li Wantao and his party extremely tired physically and mentally, and they are embarrassed. Moreover, the evil qi they received in the ghost forest made them feel a little unwell for a while, and they deeply admired the ability of these people in the ghost path to resist such a strong evil qi at this time. As one of the most gloomy places in this world, it is indeed difficult for people in this place to resist this evil aura if they don't use exercises to resist it.
Although the fatigue of ** made Li Wantao a little uncomfortable, what made him happy to hear the news of Li Yi'an's peace made him feel depressed these days, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.
At the same time, the disgust shown by the people encountered in the ghost forest and the information known by the ghost path shocked Li Wantao a lot. It made him worry about the future of his family. I feel the burden on my body even heavier. The road to reviving the Li clan is also more difficult.
It was slowly getting dark, and the fatigue of Li Wantao and his party also increased dramatically. They rested in place, while their respective soul beasts patrolled the perimeter to prevent enemy attacks. The next day, before dawn, they walked to the nearest cave, and because of the urgency of the situation, they did not make any stops, and hurried back to Xianglijiazhuang. After a week of day and night, their group finally returned to Lijiazhuang. Returning to the rest that Li Wantao did not have at all, he directly convened an emergency meeting composed of core personnel at home.
Hearing the information that Li Wantao brought back this time shocked them. They never imagined that their every move would be monitored, and they could even alarm the ghost path. Judging from the situation shown by the Ghost Dao Sect, they are a little afraid of this force.
What kind of force could this be that the people of the Ghost Dao Sect would be so jealous that the Li clan would be turned away. Although the Li family is not a big family, their ancestors have a long relationship with the ghost Dao family, so they will not not not only not remind but also say such words to Li Wantao and his party when they know the Li family. The Ghost Dao Sect's move shocked them greatly. Although they didn't know if this was the intention of the god operator himself or if other forces in the Ghost Dao Sect had made such a decision for some reason. But they could be sure that the Li clan was in a very dangerous situation at this time.
The Li family has been very low-key in recent years, and all their actions are carried out in secret, except for a few key people in the family, few people know, what is the problem? Could it be that there is a spy in the family?
The people present began to feel uneasy, and sweat broke out from their backs. The people in this chamber fell silent, and became as quiet as death, breathless. None of them dared to imagine the fate of themselves and their families.
At this time, Li Tianyi was the most uneasy, as the manager of this family, he couldn't let his people be harmed, the family's rejuvenation had not yet been completed, and there was such an unexpected situation in the middle. Li Tianyi was silent for a moment, sighed, and said, "Hey! Our Li family is really full of disasters and difficulties! Now we will stop all actions." Don't do anything without my orders!"
The people present didn't dare to slack off when they heard this, and hurriedly said, "Yes!"
Li Tianyi glanced around at the people present, saw Li Wantao and said, "You have worked hard, go back and rest early." Don't worry too much about Li Yi, nothing should happen to you!"
When Li Wantao heard Li Tianyi's words, he hesitated for a while and said, "Yes! With that, he walked out of the secret conference room.
Li Wantao didn't say anything about Li Yi to everyone in the meeting, but just said that the people who appeared in the Ghost Dao Forest said that Li Yi had nothing to do, and that he would appear in front of them after a while, that's all.
Especially the life of Li Yi said by the ghost fairy, Li Wantao did not mention a word. It's not a good thing that too many people know about this kind of thing. He wanted to explain it to his father alone after a while. And this ghost fairy he had never heard of before. The people of the ghost path have little contact with the outside world, and all the people in the world know are old monsters who have been famous for many years, and some of them still don't know if they are still there. As for the new newcomers, it can be said that they don't know anything. "The ghost fairy may be a new force in the ghost path! Li Wantao secretly thought about returning to his house.
At this time, Cui, who was anxiously waiting for Li Wantao to come back in the house, saw Li Wantao enter the house and immediately pounced on Li Wantao with a crying face. At this point, she couldn't even say a word. Li Wantao was stunned at first when he saw Cui's crying appearance, but when he saw his current appearance, he secretly scolded himself in his heart, at this time Li Wantao's appearance was a person who had just come out of the pile of death, needless to say, the clothes were shabby, and blood spots could be seen everywhere on the clothes, how could Cui not be excited when he saw his appearance. Li Wantao stroked Cui's head and said comfortingly: "What are you doing here, do you miss me?" He pretended to touch it excitedly and continued: "On our way back, we saw a few spirit beasts. It's that kind of very rare water-based spirit animal. We chased the beast for two weeks, and finally let it escape. You say it's not annoying, this spirit beast is too powerful."
Hearing Li Wantao describing the process of chasing and killing spirit beasts in a colorful voice, the nervous expression on Cui's face slowly relaxed. Listening with relish how Li Wantao and his party chased and killed that rare spirit beast, and what kind of magical powers that spirit beast had. How did this supernatural power make them suffer
Li Wantao added a lot of things that happened when he hunted spirit beasts in the past to the story compiled by Cui, and Cui's listened to it a little fascinating.
She was sixteen years old when Cui married into the Li family, and Li Wantao was thirty years old. Cui's grandfather used to be a very famous warrior in the Jiuzhong Mountain area, and once led the Jiuzhong Army to participate in countless battles to defend the "Divine Wall" as a general of the Jiuzhong Army. And it has been respected by countless people. It was also the largest family in the Kureyama area at that time. However, in a battle, more than two dozen core figures in the family, including Choi's grandfather, were killed on the battlefield. Without the support of the core members of the family, their family slowly lost their original status and went into decline. In the end, he became the most ordinary civilian in the Nine Mountains. After losing the aura of the family, the Cui family lived a very hard life with her mother, and it was not until she met Li Wantao that her life changed. The people in the family don't know how Li Wantao and Cui's met and fell in love. Although there is a big gap in age and status, the relationship between the two of them is very deep. Li Wantao loves this wife very much, and Cui's is also obedient to Li Wantao. It can be said that it is a very rare pair. They really love each other deeply. It is also a very rare thing in this Kureyama area, which is full of interests and deception, and where family-style marriages are prevalent everywhere.
At first, this marriage was strongly opposed by the elders in the family, but Li Wantao resolutely chose the Cui family and tried all kinds of ways to persuade the elders in the family. In the end, under Li Wantao's strong insistence, the clansmen reluctantly agreed to the matter. But in my heart, I don't recognize this Cui Shi at all.
In the second year after Li Wantao and Cui's marriage, Cui's gave birth to Li Yi's son. Li Wantao loves this son very much, as a pearl in his palm. When Li Yi showed an incomparably strong talent in martial arts, the people of the Li family began to slowly identify with the Cui family, and they became a lot closer to her, and the Cui family also had some contacts with the people in the family, and often went out to visit the door. But the good times didn't last long, Li Yi didn't know why, and suddenly one day his martial arts cultivation completely stopped, and that yesterday's genius was regarded as an idiot by the clansmen as time passed. The little respect that Cui had finally gained also disappeared as Li Yi's martial arts cultivation stopped moving. The Cui clan is now as unpopular as it was when they first entered the Li Mansion.
Choi spends most of his time in the house with the maids. Because the Cui family is very kind to the house slaves and maids in the family on weekdays, they like this young and beautiful lady very much. Today, Cui's heard that Li Wantao came back very embarrassed, and went to see the steward without even resting, and Cui's was very anxious for fear of something unexpected. But because of his low status, he could only stay in the house, and he could only send maids to inquire about the situation. Waiting for Li Wantao to come back in the house made Cui's anxious cry several times. At this time, under Li Wantao's comfort, a happy smile appeared on Cui's face. Looking at Cui's innocent smile, Li Wantao also had a happy expression on his face.
Cui Shi, who was leaning on Li Wantao's shoulder, hesitated for a moment and asked, "How is Li Yi's affairs going! ”
"I've arranged it, don't worry too much, the Heavenly Buddha Temple is the largest Buddhist temple in this continent. There are a lot of masters in it. Li Yi is over there, and there is only good for him, no harm. This kind of opportunity, the children of the family are rushing to go! My father still loves Li Yi very much. Li Wantao said comfortingly.
Hearing this, the smile on Cui's face became even stronger. Looking at Cui's happy appearance, Li Wantao felt a little guilty in his heart. Somewhat unnaturally, he got up and said, "I'm so dirty, I've stained your clothes." I'd better go wash it first. “
"yes, let's go wash it. A bath can eliminate the fatigue on your body. Wait a minute, I'll help you get ready. After saying that, Cui Shi hurriedly walked out.
"Okay!" Looking at Cui's back, Li Wantao trembled unnaturally, and his heart welled up with apologies for Cui's.
