It has been half a year since Li Qi left Scattered Dust Sect.

As for where Li Qi is going, he doesn'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.

Probably thirty years.

At that time, Li Qi hadn't obtained the salted fish system yet, and was working hard to earn Spirit Stones,

Li Qi remembers 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 just a person with the strength of forging the body and four internal organs, and he was shot to death by Li Qi casually.

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 began to chat with Li Qi, and he could catch up with a few words from time to time.

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 introduction of this scholar own.

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

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.

When Li Qi heard the name, his eyelids twitched.

Ning Caichen, it can't be such a coincidence. It should be just a coincidence.

But at this moment, Ning Caichen, 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 in the first place.

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

Regarding Ning Caichen's question, Li Qi just 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 did not refuse, but instead asked again.

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

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

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

After that day, Li Qi and Ning Caichen set foot on the road 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 Caichen 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 Caichen 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 Caichen beside him became even weirder.

Lanruo Temple.

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

Ning Caichen 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 Caichen 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 Caichen 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 doesn't make much difference where he stays 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 Caichen took out a piece of dry yellow rice cake from his own basket, found a branch and roasted it on the campfire, then tore off half and handed it to Li Qi.

Five grains are dispensable to Li Qi, the steady stream of Spiritual Qi in his body is enough to maintain his Penetrating Valley state.

But Li Qi chose to accept Ning Caichen's kindness.

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

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

As he spoke, Ning Caichen stretched his hand into the back basket of Own, took out a roll of somewhat yellowed books, and began to read them attentively.

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

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

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

And at this moment.

There was a "crunch".

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

Li Qi and Ning Caichen looked up 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?"
