Myriad Paths

There is no doubt that when Shen Shuibi came out, she immediately attracted the attention of the entire store.

Li Qi never expected that just by changing her clothes, changing her hair from disheveled to combed, and adding an ordinary wooden hairpin, she could change so much.

So, Li Qi quickly paid the money. Originally, he planned to bargain for a lower price. But now that this happened, he didn't dare to lower the price anymore, so he pulled Shen Shuibi and walked out.

"I borrowed it, I borrowed it..." He said to the passers-by with an embarrassed smile, and pulled out Shen Shuibi, who was happy because he had changed into new clothes.

Based on his understanding of Shen Shuibi after getting along with her for this month, Li Qi bet that she didn't feel the eyes of the outside world at all, and the smile on her face should be pure happiness.

Just like a kid who gets a new toy.

She was simply happy, but when Li Qi pulled her onto the street, the eyes around her almost nailed Li Qi to death.

And Li Qi was not willing to deprive Shen Shuibi of the joy of changing into new clothes. If he asked her to change them back so as not to attract attention...

That would make you look like a waste.

Even if it attracts some attention, he should still be able to protect it.

He didn't know where the pride came from, which made Li Qi not as cautious as before. Instead, he pulled Shen Shuibi openly and walked out of the city.

Fortunately, Dalu Country is generally considered a country with strict laws, although this strictness is only reflected on the surface.

But the strictness on the stage can already prevent others from doing anything in broad daylight.

As for the evening.

In this world, no one goes out of town at night.

Li Qi pulled Shen Shuibi all the way out of the city, walked all the way to the wild, into the mountains and forests, and entered the non-human settlement of Shiwandashan.

Whistled.

Shen Shuibi covered her ears, trembling all over, twisting and turning, her expression turned into a mask of pain, turning blue and purple.

She couldn't stand the sharp sound. Maybe this was the price of the rabbit's sensitive hearing.

But only this kind of sound can spread widely.

Soon, a rhythmic sound came, and the old horse neighed in the distance in response.

Not long after, a handsome and handsome horse galloped up, with wind blowing under its feet and clouds accompanying it. It flew in the forest like flying, rushed in front of Li Qi at a very fast speed, and rubbed Li Qi's face with the horse's face. .

"Okay, you guys spend the night here first. I'm going to buy some other things for traveling in the wild, as well as a map. What do you want to eat, old horse? Beans? Oats?" Li Qi said to the old horse.

The old horse neighed and jumped its hooves.

Shen Shuibi began to translate at this time: "He said he wants oats, preferably mixed with some beets."

"There are quite a lot of requests. Okay, I'll bring them to you when the time comes." Li Qi patted the horse's back, and then said to Shen Shuibi: "You guys stay here for a while. With the old horse here, nothing should be able to catch up with you. "I'll probably come back in the evening. If I can't come back in the evening, I will definitely arrive tomorrow morning. I have to deal with the gold. By the way, give me another bunch of the old horse's mane." Li Qi said, cutting it with a knife. He tied up the old horse's mane, causing the old horse to shake its head in displeasure.

He always felt that after a while, his beautiful mane would be cut off by Li Qi.

"Well, okay, Lao Ma and I will wait here for you to come back." Shen Shuibi nodded.

She has always been so straightforward.

Although he is dumbfounded, he is a ruthless person who can destroy his body after all.

Li Qi would sometimes ask himself, after practicing for hundreds or thousands of years and finally reaching the fifth level, could he easily destroy his body?

It's hard to say, but it's definitely not as relieved as Shen Shuibi.

So far, he has never seen Shen Shuibi become discouraged because she lost her power. She seems to be in a good mood all the time, and she can adjust quickly when she is unhappy occasionally.

It was as if the lost thousand years of cultivation were not hers.

It seems that the transformation from a high-ranking fairy to the weak woman who has no strength and has to rely on her own mortal talents to survive is not worth feeling sad at all.

What a determined person.

Of course, it could also be because she was dumbfounded and didn't realize it.

But Li Qi thought it was impossible.

Although Shen Shuibi's personality is a bit dull and cute, her bottomless experience and knowledge are clearly visible.

Being dull doesn't mean you have low IQ. How can someone who can remember so many things be a fool?

So Li Qi actually admires Shen Shuibi quite a lot.

After giving these instructions, Li Qi packed up the money and gave the luggage to Shen Shuibi for safekeeping.

Then he went back to the city by himself.

He still had to deal with the gold matter.

He thought of a way to get rid of this piece of gold without letting himself lose money, let alone take risks, and without needing to blame others, which was to use the money to make sacrifices.

He was going to be careful, spend some money, and hold a small sacrifice.

What to sacrifice?

Sacrifice the place he is most familiar with.

In Qinghua Palace, the God of Lishui.

The one he is most familiar with is the land that participates in the big sacrifice every year. He has worshiped the Lishui River God three times so far!

————————

"Come on, yes, just leave it like this."

"The altar is right here, yes, right here."

"Wait a minute, you will be responsible for playing the drum here. Just shoot this small drum."

Li Qi arranged some laborers.

He used ten yuan of wages per person to ask these people to help him decorate a small dojo to worship the river god.

It included some wood, meat offerings, small paper boats and spices, and the mane of an old horse.

Solid color dragon colt, easy to use.

These paintings cost Li Qi a total of 2,300 yuan, including labor.

Honestly, my heart bleeds.

However, he actually had this plan originally, but the gold helped him make this decision.

As a blessing person, he has never held a sacrifice for more than one person, so this is the beginning.

This kind of sacrifice by many people is the real way to obtain enough power.

Now Li Qiguang couldn't help but tremble when he thought about the scale of the river opening.

Every year when the river is opened, more than 100,000 people rush to it, and countless rituals and sacrifices are performed.

How much can the presiding officer of the ceremony, the prefect of Lizhou, get?

Forget it, don't think about that, just focus on your own sacrifice.

After preparing these things, Li Qi stepped forward, offered sacrifices, and sent the folded paper boat into the Lishui River.

Among the sacrifices, surprisingly, that piece of gold was included!

Using gold to worship gods is originally a tradition of sacrifice. Is there anything wrong with that?

Meat, wine, gold, dragon colt's mane, everything was done according to etiquette.

Damn it, no matter what disasters or curses this thing brings, if you have the ability, go find the God of Lishui!

Li Qi didn't believe it anymore. Could such a thing be able to touch this big boss?
