Wandao long distance

Chapter 34 The Knowledgeable Stupid

Li Qi touched his body and found that there were nine hundred and ninety-two coins.

It's broken, the new boss only gave me the exercises and the willow branch, but no money!
He can do well by himself, he can sleep in the wild, by the bridge, or on the street at worst.

But there is an extra woman beside her... But this woman is also dressed in rich and noble clothes, gauze scarves and silk, and she looks very rich when she is dressed in white and clean clothes.

No, sir, this seems unsafe, how dare you sleep on the street?

The most important thing is that there are no guards or anything, the only accompanying Li Qi himself is a shabby tracker who can be seen as a poor man at a glance.

Going out in this dress feels like telling others: "Come and steal me! Come and steal me! I am not only rich but also have no ability to resist!"

So Li Qi took two steps on the street, diverted the attention of Miss Shen, and said to him: "Miss Shen, my name is Li Qi, you should already know it."

"Well, Li Qi, my name is Shen Shuibi." Shen Shuibi's attention has been diverted, and she seems to have forgotten her previous resentment.

This made Li Qi sigh with emotion.

This monster really lacks a brain, no wonder it is the world of human race, it has such a brain, if it is not the world of human race, ghosts will appear.

Oh, no, it should be said...is this called innocence?

I wish people were so innocent.

Li Qi led Shen Shuibi all the way to a river.

He squatted by the river, Shenshuibi didn't understand why he stood behind him, as if he didn't know what to do.

At this time, Li Qi said: "Miss Shen, we are going to go on the road together...ah no, we are going to go on the road together, we must get to know each other, I don't care about you except your name I know."

"However, understanding has to be mutual. Let me introduce myself first."

Li Qi said, and began to introduce himself.

His life is already very thin, except for the fact that he is a heretic, it's not easy to talk about it, he can't tell people that he is a time traveler, right?

Although there is actually no difference between heretics, judging by Mr. Zhu's appearance, there seem to be quite a few of them...

I don't know if there is a chance to meet fellow villagers?

In addition, he briefly introduced himself as a tracker, while telling some stories he encountered while pulling the boat.

Things like fighting wits and bravery with Shan Dazhuang, mountain spirits and water monsters encountered when pulling a boat, and so on.

Generally, when encountering those spirits and monsters, the big figures above the boatman will be responsible for solving them, and the trackers will not be sent to their deaths.

After all, people who can run a boat are not comparable to trackers.

There are also some legends and stories I have heard around the pier, such as water gu insects, water monkeys, and witches casting spells.

He was telling his own story, but it attracted Shen Shuibi's attention. She had never heard of these things, and she seemed to regard Li Qi as a storyteller.

"So, because of the shaman, most of the children in our Dalu Kingdom who are seriously ill will not go to the doctor, but will go to the shaman, and let the shaman heal the illness." Li Qi talked about the Baiyue area, Anecdotes he had seen.

Now, I just talked about witches who walk around the streets. In Li Qi's view, they replace barefoot doctors. They will use some herbal medicine or magic exercises to treat diseases.

However, at this moment, Shen Shuibi spoke suddenly.

"I know this. Mr. Confucianism and Taoism once wrote about the deeds of Baiyue, saying, "Baiyue is a vulgar teacher of witches. When people are sick, they often ask witches with the character horoscope. When the witch arrives, he breaks a chicken egg and regards it as yellow and white." How do we know the severity of his illness? In mild cases, he uses wine and food to treat it, and in severe cases, he paints statues of gods in the hall, and witches make beautiful women, blow horns, sing gongs and dance, and sing with flowers, poles, lotuses and a chicken. The dance is called the dance of redeeming the soul. , called the dance of the broken fetus. The song is called the song of the chicken, and the song of the warm flowers. For those who warm the flowers, whenever the boys and babies are sick, the witches will gather colorful garlands around them, and make each relative point to a flower as a wish, and sing the wish. , It’s called Nuanhua. The witch cuts out the blood on his arm to apply a talisman, and it’s called Yang.’ It’s about the Baiyue area who uses witches to cure diseases, not doctors.”

"So, that gentleman also scolded that Baiyue is ignorant. There are often ten witches in the countryside, but it is difficult to find a doctor. The people must live in hardship. You must know that although witches can cure diseases, they cannot prevent them. Doctors can not only cure In addition to the disease, one can also get to the bottom of it, find out the cause, and cure it from the root. Curing one person can make a hundred people no longer get sick, but witches can only cure one person, which is nothing but a drop in the bucket."

Hearing these words, Li Qi turned to look at her with surprise on his face.

This woman... Ah no, Banshee, although she gave Li Qi the impression that she was stupid, she could always speak well. The same was true of the willow branch, she just quoted scriptures casually, as if she had read many ancient books.

However, I have read a lot of books and have a lot of knowledge... Why is my brain still like a brain?
"That's true. What this gentleman said is very reasonable." Li Qishen believed that those wizards could cure diseases, but they didn't even know how to cure diseases themselves.

Li Qi suffered from it. He pulled a boat and was parasitized by the water gu. He became pot-bellied and round with wriggling worms inside. He paid a wizard for him. The wizard cast spells and danced for him. After a while, the water gu died , all pulled out.

But even though the disease was cured, Li Qi didn't know how to prevent it in the future, how to keep other people from getting sick, even the wizard himself didn't know, so he could only treat one by one.

Hearing that Li Qi agreed with her opinion, Shen Shuibi hummed triumphantly.

It's really... carefree.

After chatting for about twenty minutes, she seemed to have completely forgotten the previous unpleasantness.

But this is exactly what Li Qi wanted to do, but even Li Qi himself didn't expect the effect to be so immediate.

I don't know if it's because my chatting ability is too strong, or if the target person is too easy to deceive.

He also struck while the iron was hot, and continued: "After talking about so many things on my side, Miss Shen, you haven't talked about yourself yet. How did you come to Dalu Country?"

This is the end of the topic, and Shen Shuibi didn't feel anything wrong: "Me? I don't have as many stories as you. I'm just your empress's rabbit. I've been with my empress since I was a child. My empress reads, and I also study. My empress cultivates. , I also practice, my mother eats, I eat too, it’s been like this for about 100 years? Then you know, my mother was chased and killed, halfway through, she was afraid that I would be killed by the aftermath, so she put me in the big deer .”

"It's just that I was unlucky. I got infected with a chasing technique. That thing would turn into my defense energy, feed on my cultivation, and show my position."

"Those who do not follow the scriptures of buoyant qi are defensive qi. However, defending qi nourishes qi, yin and yang follow each other, and the outside and the inside intersect. It cannot be eradicated. I can only give up all my cultivation and destroy my body to get rid of this technique." Law."
