Chapter 35
Looking at the children with grass marks stuck in them, the girl tugged on Li Qingwei's Taoist robe.

"Brother, where will you sell me?"

Hearing the girl's question, Li Qingwei stopped his steps, turned around and looked at the little girl who was a head shorter than him.

This is the first time she has spoken in the past few days. She has not spoken since Li Qingwei met her.It was the same even when he was burying his own mother. After kowtowing a few times, she followed behind Li Qingwei.

In the past few days, she has been silent, and she will eat if she is given food by herself, and she will not eat if she is not given to her.

With the purest face, she uttered the cruelest questions.And it was the first question she asked herself.

But there was no sadness on the girl's face, but she looked at Li Qingwei calmly.

The girl's eyes were still so appreciative, just like when Li Qingwei threw her mother's body into the dry well.

Li Qingwei clearly remembered her expression at that time. Although she was sad, she didn't cry. Maybe someone who was used to life and death along the way, and who had gone through "hell" once, would not be afraid of other things.

Li Qingwei was in a bad mood during this time because he had seen all the warmth and comfort in the world.There is also a slight restlessness in the body.There seems to be endless anger with nowhere to vent.

A person who cultivates the Tao should have a calm mind like water, even if Mount Tai collapses in front of him, he should not be disturbed by the waves.

But people are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless?
Even though Li Qingwei is in a bad mood right now, he still forced a smile on his face and said to the girl, "No!"

Hearing Li Qingwei's answer, the girl hugged Li Qingwei happily.But after a moment she let go of her hand.

She didn't know what the difference between men and women was, and she didn't care about Li Qingwei's status as a Taoist priest.

She just felt that she had been fleeing, her body was dirty, and she couldn't stain Eun Gong's clothes.

A well-dressed little Taoist priest with a sword on his back, and a scruffy little girl who looked like a beggar.

It should be a very noticeable thing for two people to walk on the street together, but not many people here care about it.

Li Qingwei looked at the little girl who was following her and said, "What's your name?"

"Zhao Di!" The girl replied softly.

Li Qingwei thought to himself, this name is really earthy.

"Then what's your last name?" Li Qingwei continued to ask.

At this moment, the girl shook her head and said, "I don't have a last name!"

Li Qingwei stopped in his tracks, and he asked, "Oh? There is no surname in life."

The girl replied: "When my father was fleeing, he left me and my mother and ran away with my younger brother, so I can't take his last name. My mother gave me all the food on the way, and I 'tired' her to death." .I can't take her last name either."

At this time, the girl looked at Li Qingwei and asked, "What's your brother's surname? Since my brother took me in, it's a kindness of regeneration. I'll take my brother's surname."

Li Qingwei did not answer her question, but asked, "Do you have any relatives?"

The girl shook her head, and then said: "No more, Daddy is the only child in the family, and I have no other relatives."

Li Qing looked at the girl slightly and sighed.It seems that I can only take her with me.

The two were walking on the streets of Jinling, Li Qingwei looked around, and suddenly he saw a clothing store.He took the girl and walked in.

The shopkeeper of the clothing store saw a little Taoist priest and a dirty little girl coming in.Just wanted to chase someone away.

Li Qingwei threw a piece of silver on his desk.

The shopkeeper, who was about to drive away, saw the white money on the table, and quickly swallowed back the words of driving away.

He picked up the silver and shook it in his hand, then bit it, and said with a flattering smile: "Young Taoist priest, what do you want to order when you come to our shop?"

Li Qingwei didn't show any expression. He pointed to the girl beside him and said, "Boil a pot of hot water, let my sister take a bath, and then give her decent clothes."

The shopkeeper held the money tightly with a smile, and then shouted to the back: "Lady! Ladies!" Following his call, a middle-aged woman came out.

The shopkeeper said: "Give this lady a bath, and then change into this lady with the best clothes in our store."

As he spoke, he showed his wife the silver he had just acquired.Then hurriedly took it back.

Seeing that the guest gave such a large piece of silver, the woman hurriedly called the girl to the back hall.

Then the shopkeeper came out from the counter, walked to Li Qingwei's side and said, "Master Dao, please sit here for a while, and the villain will pour you tea."

The reason the shopkeeper was so attentive was because Li Qingwei's ingot of silver was worth his three days' income, and from Li Qingwei's appearance, it seemed that he didn't intend to ask him to change the money.

Of course he has to take good care of this master.

About half an hour later, the little girl and the woman came out together.

"Brother!" cried the little girl.

Li Qing turned his head slightly and carefully looked at the little girl in front of him.

If it is true that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, the little girl really changed a lot after washing and dressing up.

This reminded Li Qing slightly of the first meeting between Guo Jing and Huang Rong, when Huang Rong also dressed herself up as a little beggar.After finally changing into the daughter's costume, Guo Jing's eyes lit up.

At this time, Zhaodi was wearing a plain chest-length white dress, with two bun-like buns tied on her head, showing the playfulness of a little girl.

Li Qingwei looked at her appearance again, she was as beautiful as Zhilan, gentle and gentle, with a beautiful face, she was absolutely a stunning beauty.Li Qingwei thought, if she grows up, even if her appearance is not as good as that of Xiaolongnv, Li Mochou probably won't lose to Guo Daduan (Guo Fu).

Li Qingwei looked at Zhaodi in front of him and nodded with satisfaction, then took out a small piece of broken silver from his pocket and put it on the table.

"Thank you, the shopkeeper, for washing my sister. Please accept this little thing." He said to Zhao Di, "Let's go."

After speaking, Li Qingwei stood up and walked out the door, and the little girl followed behind him.

After going out, the little girl tugged at the corner of Li Qingwei's clothes.

Li Qingwei stopped and said, "What's wrong? Are you hungry?"

"Brother, can you squat down?" Zhao Di said.

Li Qingwei didn't know what the little girl wanted to do, so she squatted down.

At this moment, the little girl pulled the straps on Li Qingwei's shoulders, and the Chongyang Sword slipped off Li Qingwei's back.

The little girl reached out to catch it, and then carried it on her thin shoulders with difficulty.

Seeing her behavior, Li Qing smiled.

He patted her head and asked, "What are you doing? Brother used it to kill many bad guys along the way. Aren't you afraid that those people's ghosts will come to you at night with it?"

Li Qingwei made a joke on purpose to scare her.

The little girl put the sword on her shoulder, and she said: "Don't be afraid~! My brother took me with me and bought me new clothes. Zhaodi can't do nothing. From now on, I will help my brother get his things. My brother is thirsty, so Zhaodi will help him pour water. When my brother is hungry, Zhaodi will cook for my brother later.”
