Refusing to be introverted and cultivating immortals, I will be invincible for thousands of years

Although Wangcheng was in charge of it before.

Li Qi left.

Do not take away a cloud.

Chapter 12 The Scholar

It has been half a year since Li Qi left Feishamen.

As for where Li Qi was going, he didn't know.

In short, whichever way his thoughts want him to go, he will go there.

However, the situation outside is not optimistic.

Because the disasters of monsters are becoming more and more frequent now.

Along the way, I seldom meet other people.

Even if they met other people, they would be in groups of three or four, even a dozen or so people hurried on their way and dared not stop.

It's probably been 30 years.

At that time, Li Qi hadn't obtained the Salted Fish System, and was working hard to earn spirit stones.

Li Qi remembered that when he was out on the road, he could still see many passers-by, including practitioners and ordinary people.

Although their journey was not leisurely, it was not as hurried as it is now.

Along the way, Li Qi also encountered some monsters occasionally, but the strength of those monsters was generally not high, and the strongest one was only the strength of forging the body and four internal organs, and Li Qi casually shot him to death.

On this day, Li Qi was walking in the mountains.

At this time, not far away, a young man dressed as a scholar came slowly with a basket on his back.

At first there was no conversation between the two.

But after walking for a few days, the scholar discovered that Li Qi was heading in the same direction as him.

Gradually, the scholar also started talking with Li Qi, and occasionally he could catch up with a few words.

In the evening, the scholar and Li Qi sat by the campfire together.

The flames made the faces of both of them a little red.

It also provides a little warmth in this somewhat cold evening.

Over the past few days, according to the scholar's own introduction.

The scholar's surname is Ning, and his first name is Ning Xiuchen.

He came out this time to go to Beijing to rush for the exam. He wanted to get a good name in the exam, and it was not in vain to study poems and books for more than ten years since he was a child.

But when Li Qi heard the name, he was very interested, and even teased this scholar, why isn't your name Ning Caichen.

"Brother Li, how do you know that my grandfather's name is Ning Caichen, but he is not a scholar, he is a hunter in the village, but he wanted to study since he was a child, but he had no money at that time."

"Ning was able to study since childhood because of his grandfather's last wish before he died."

But at this moment, Ning Xiuchen, who was sitting by the campfire, suddenly asked.

"Brother Li, are you planning to go to the capital too?"

Where did Li Qi want to go to the capital? He didn't have any goals.

The reason why he moved in the same direction as Ning Xiuchen these days was entirely because he didn't know which way to go, and he happened to see Ning Xiuchen, so he followed him all the way.

Regarding Ning Xiuchen's question, Li Qi only smiled slightly.

"I'm just a wild crane. I don't have any purpose when I come out this time. I don't care where I go. I just want to see other places in the big scene."

"Is that so? Why don't you go directly to the capital with me, Brother Li? The capital is prosperous, and it's the first time for Ning to go there, so you can be a companion."

Li Qi thought for a while, but he didn't refuse, but asked again.

"However, monsters breed frequently these days. You, a scholar with no hands, are walking alone, aren't you afraid?"

Hearing this, Ning Xiuchen was silent for a moment, then smiled wryly.

"Afraid! Of course I'm afraid. But my parents have worked hard to raise me since I was born, and provided me with education. Now that I have studied hard for more than ten years, if they dare not go out just because of the breeding of demons, wouldn't it be true? Wasting the years of hard work of the elders in the family?"

After that day, Li Qi and Ning Xiuchen embarked on their way to the capital.

Dark clouds covered the sun, thunder rang, and one evening, there was a sudden storm.

Bits of rain fell gradually, and then intensified.

Ning Xiuchen was holding on to an oiled paper umbrella tightly.

"Brother Li, come quickly under the umbrella. There seems to be a ruined temple in front of you. Speed ​​up and go there to hide from the rain."

Not long after, Li Qi and Ning Xiuchen rushed to the ruined temple.

And when Li Qi saw the vague name in front of the ruined temple, he was completely silent.

The look at Ning Xiuchen beside him became even weirder.

boy!You also said that you are not Ning Caichen!Will Nie Xiaoqian come out next?

Lan Ruo Temple.

It's not such a coincidence, after all, the world is so big, and it is the same as Lingyin Temple, White Horse Temple, Baiyun Taoist Temple before I crossed over, and Li Qi has indeed heard several of them during his travels around the world. more than one.

"Brother Li, what are you still doing, go in quickly."

Ning Xiuchen took Li Qi's hand and hurriedly walked into Lanruo Temple.

This Lanruo Temple seems to have been abandoned for a long time. There are many cobwebs in the corners of the temple, cracks on the ground, and dense weeds growing out of the gaps.

And the Buddha statue in the center of the temple is also tattered, corroded for a long time, and even the specific outline of the Buddha statue's face is somewhat unclear.

Raindrops dripped from under the eaves.

Ning Xiuchen patted the wet clothes on his body. Even though there were umbrellas on the road, many places on his body were still wet by the rain.

Looking at the pouring rain outside, Ning Xiuchen was quite distressed.

"Brother Li, it's raining heavily. It looks like we have to stay here overnight."

Li Qi nodded. His purpose was to travel around the world, and it didn't make much difference where he stayed for one night.

The two cleaned up the dilapidated temple a little bit, and made a clean place to sit on the ground.

A bonfire was lit again. As for the wood used for the bonfire, it was also found during the cleaning process, perhaps left by travelers who also stayed here before.

"Brother Li, eat cake."

Ning Xiuchen took out a piece of dry yellow rice cake from his back basket, found a branch and roasted it on the campfire, then tore off half of it and handed it to Li Qi.

Whole grains are dispensable to Li Qi, and the steady stream of aura in his body is enough to maintain his bigu state.

But Li Qi also chose to accept Ning Xiuchen's kindness.

While eating the rice cakes, Ning Xiuchen looked at the weather that was still raining heavily outside.

"In this weather, the rain doesn't know when it will stop."

While speaking, Ning Xiuchen stretched his hand into his back basket, took out a roll of somewhat yellowed books, and began to read them intently.

As expected of a scholar, he never forgets to read while eating.

Li Qi didn't bother Ning Xiuchen either, his fingers sketched in the void on his own.

After this period of time, the various landscapes, rivers and mountains he saw made Li Qi gain a lot of insights on the formation.

And right now.

"Squeak" sound.

The somewhat dilapidated gate of Lanruo Temple was pushed open again.

Li Qi and Ning Xiuchen raised their heads slightly.

What catches the eye is a woman wrapped in plain white, a little charming yet a little bit delicate, holding a paper umbrella.

The timid voice sounded with a gentle voice.

"Both young masters, is it convenient to take shelter from the rain here?"

Chapter 13 Don't be obsessed with women

"What a nice view."

Ning Xiuchen was stunned when he saw the woman outside the door.

For a while, he didn't even care about the books he was reading.

"Girl, it's raining heavily outside, come in and keep warm."

Ning Xiuchen warmly invited and invited the woman in white.

"Thank you sir."

The woman in white looked at Ning Xiuchen, lowered her head, and thanked Ning Xiuchen in a charming and shy way.

When Ning Xiuchen heard this, a faint smile appeared on his bookish face.

"It's okay, if you go out, if others are in trouble, you can help as much as you can."

But at this time, Ning Xiuchen noticed that the woman in white glanced to the side, and a shy look appeared on her face, and she lowered her head slightly.

Ning Xiuchen also looked over, but found that direction, Li Qi's eyes were fixed on the woman in white at the moment.

Seeing this, Ning Xiuchen immediately blamed him.

"Brother Li, don't stare at her girl, she is a little shy."

Immediately, Ning Xiuchen turned his head to comfort the woman in white.

"Girl, don't be afraid. This is brother Li, my companion. He is not a bad person."

But Li Qi still didn't want to divert his gaze, but only heard Li Qi's voice involuntarily.

"That... are you called Nie Xiaoqian?"
