Chapter 13

Qin Yi knew that although Nanli Kingdom was remote and self-sufficient, it was not without enemies.

Xihuang Country is Nanli's old enemy. Unlike Nanli, which was established for a thousand years and whose culture is already very close to the model of China, Xihuang Kingdom is just a country formed by barbarian tribes that have risen for a hundred years. It is barbaric and fierce, and has repeatedly invaded. Of course, people from Nanli are not easy to mess with. There are many generals fighting against Xihuang and even counterattacking. The two countries have been at war for a hundred years.

It was more than a month ago that Nanli repelled an attack on the Western Wilderness, and the one who was in charge of the capital and dispatched troops was the Prince Qinglin in front of him. How could Qin Yi have imagined that while this guy was still fighting against the enemy country, he would accompany his sister to find immortals.

Moreover, Li Qinglin had personally been on the battlefield many times in the past, and the blood of countless enemy countries was poured down with his spear.

Qin Yi didn't have high ambitions, but he still admired such a person. It's no wonder that Li Qingjun thinks that the dispute between his elder brother and the national teacher is a dispute between good and evil. It is indeed a struggle between a good general of the country and a wicked evildoer who will bring disaster to the country.

"So brother Li is the prince?" Qin Yi didn't know much about it.

"No. I also have a brother Wang, he is the eldest son, he is the prince." Li Qinglin smiled indifferently: "Brother Wang has learned the art of governing the country since he was a child. It’s just a matter of fighting.”

Qin Yi looked at his expression seriously, but couldn't see anything.

Li Qingjun said: "What is the bravery of a man? Either lead the army to protect the country and keep the people safe, or wander the rivers and lakes to kill rape and eliminate evil, that's what you and I want. Is it possible to learn how they embroider in the boudoir and pretend to be weak and weak?"

Li Qinglin explained to Qin Yi with a smile: "My Nanli Taizu originally came from the rivers and lakes, and the ancestors made regulations. The children of the Wang family need to cover up their identities to go out alone and experience the world of mortals. Although there have been some unbearable things in the past, the overall respect The atmosphere of the royal family is very favorable, so it has continued to this day. But also because of this, the atmosphere of the married princesses of the past generations is a bit so..."

Qin Yi also couldn't help laughing, no wonder the prince and princess traveled alone, it turned out that there was such a rule. Speaking of which, the Taizu's rule is quite interesting... But the princess raised in this way may be difficult for ordinary son-in-law to bear.

Li Qingjun snorted and said, "What do you want to marry? Wouldn't it be a pleasure for me to find a fairy, travel around the sun and the moon, and slay demons?"

Li Qinglin smiled, but did not respond.

Qin Yi also smiled, always feeling that this girl shouldn't be reincarnated as a princess, how good would it be to be a chivalrous woman?

Speaking of which, since this girl longs for immortal fate, I don't know what would happen if she met Tassel... Presumably based on the difference in the three views of the two, the quarrel is more fierce than myself.

At this time, the three of them had been walking for a long time, and the outline of the county city could be faintly seen in front of them.

"This is Hengshan County. After passing this county for less than two days, we will be in Lihuo City. You can rest here first." Li Qinglin got off his horse and led his horse into the city like ordinary Jianghu figures. Qin Yi also dismounted and followed behind, looking at the big county.

It has only been more than two months, and the farthest away from the village is only the county seat. I really haven't had a good look at the style of this ancient big city.

Nanli has a small population, and the county doesn't feel too lively. There are many pedestrians with swords and swords, which highlights the sturdy folk customs, which is different from the secluded Xianji Village. There are various bulletins posted at the entrance of the city gate, as well as rewards offered by the people, but it seems that the bulletins have been on the list for a long time, and pedestrians have passed by without paying attention.

Qin Yi stopped and looked around. There were notices for conscription, and notices for collecting certain things, among them "blazing flint". The seal used is different from the conscription list, but looks like a Taoist talisman. It can be seen that this is the list of the national teacher, not the name of the court, so the purpose may not be for the king to make alchemy, maybe it is for the national teacher's own business.

But something happened, and others would only pin the blame on the king. Of course, there are also reasons why local officials flattered the national teacher, or took the opportunity to search for it themselves, which caused public resentment.

In short, Nanliguo is really a bit unhealthy.

Li Qingjun next to him glanced at him, his meaning was unclear.

Qin Yi knew what she meant. When she "solicited" him before, she said that she could help him find some rare medicinal materials. Coupled with her identity, this statement is really true, as if this national teacher can use the power of the whole country to search for resources, it is better than myself alone without a clue.

Li Qingjun said lightly: "If you can really help, it's okay to let you replace him when the time comes."

Qin Yi shook his head and didn't say anything. Seeing that although Li Qingjun was talking to him, but his eyes were on other announcements, he took a look along the way.

What Li Qingjun saw was a reward from the county government, saying that Zhangjiazhuang outside the city seems to be haunted by ghosts, and there are always people missing for no reason. There must be a reward.

This is also what I heard people in the Jianghu said at that time. The Cangsong Taoist priest went to see it and said there was no ghost.

In fact, Qin Yi also felt that this kind of messing up was more likely to be done artificially.

Seeing Li Qingjun's eagerness to try, his curiosity and chivalry have been stirred again. But approaching Lihuo City, Li Qinglin should be preoccupied with the dispute with the National Teacher at this moment, so he won't be in the mood to investigate the case out of nowhere, right?

"Shall we go and have a look?" Li Qingjun finally asked his brother.

Contrary to Qin Yi's expectations, Li Qinglin just pondered for a moment, then turned to Qin Yi and asked, "Brother Qin, would you like to delay for a day?"

Daringly, he felt that Qin Yi didn't seem like a nosy person.

Qin Yi asked: "Isn't the National Teacher responsible for handling these strange things?"

"I don't see him doing anything serious." Li Qinglin smiled mockingly, "Besides, this kind of thing may not be haunted, and the possibility of man-made disaster is even greater."

"Well, let's go and have a look." Qin Yi didn't refuse: "It's not too late to go to Beijing."

A smile appeared on Li Qingjun's stern face.

Liusu was extremely surprised, he knew better than anyone else that Qin Yi was really not a nosy person, let alone such a case that could obviously be man-made? Can't help but ask in the sea of ​​consciousness: "Hey, don't you really have a crush on this princess? Does the promised dog have no house?"

Qin Yi ignored it. The three turned their heads and left the city again, heading straight for the farm outside the city.

It was dusk when it was close to the farm. Looking up, there were still white flags hanging in the farm, and it was desolate.

A farmer was finishing work at the edge of the field. When he saw the spears of the Li family brothers and sisters, he bent over and stood aside in fear, not daring to take a breath.

Li Qinglin pointedly said: "This is a normal villager."

Naturally, what he said was that the villagers in Xianji Village were different, so Qin Yi didn't reply and went straight to the village. Xianji Mountain, a special space, the location of Tassel, the origin of his own travel. I don't know if there is anything special about the villagers. I am obviously the most special one, so it's better not to talk too much...

The gate of the villa is not closed, and there is Zhuang Ding guarding the gate. Qin Yi then asked: "The gate of the city is closed, we missed Sutou, may we stay overnight in Guizhuang?"

Zhuang Ding was stunned: "Isn't it here to catch ghosts? Then you go, this place is haunted by ghosts, what do you need?"

Li Qingjun said: "You are not afraid of living here, what the hell is going on?"

Zhuang Dingdun said: "If it wasn't for being unable to leave the field, I would have left long ago! Even the owner of the farm has passed away, there is really a ghost in this farm!"

"Laifu!" A soft voice came from the villa, "What do you say to stop the guests? Let them come in."

Laifu saluted helplessly: "Yes, madam."

Qin Yi never thought that the so-called "Madam Zhang" would be so stunning.

The woman in front of her was no more than twenty years old, she was dressed in plain white filial piety, she didn't wear any makeup, but her face was as bright as vermilion. There is a rather sad look on her face, but with a glance of peach blossom eyes, she is looking forward to brilliance, inadvertently fascinated, and with a filial piety, it adds to the taste.

And she is very fragrant, overshadowing the fragrance of Li Qingjun beside her...

Mrs. Zhang's eyes flicked over Qin Yi's body without stopping. It was obvious that Qin Yi's thin young body and rough clothes did not arouse her interest at all. He glanced at Li Qingjun, pursed his lips and smiled, but didn't say anything.

When her eyes fell on Li Qinglin, Qin Yi could clearly see that her eyes lit up suddenly, and her voice was so soft that it dripped water: "Who is not inconvenient when you are away from home? The three of you don't think this village is unclean, so why not just stay for one night?"
