『Chapter error, click here to report』
There were a lot of people watching the excitement around, Li Ji asked, but it turned out that there was a child who was naughty and untied the reins of the mule, but now the mule and the child who got into trouble are gone. Vertex updates are the fastest
Mules are worthless, but Li Ji has a depression in his heart at this time, which cannot be vented, and this depression has quietly grown since the moment he landed on the land of Twin Peaks; This mule came to provoke him again and again, so he launched the nose recognition technique in the six senses, smelled the smell of the mule, and chased after him.
After this pursuit, he chased for ten miles, and finally saw the mule in a small valley, soaking himself in the spring, enjoying it.
Li Ji was furious in his heart, so he stepped forward to take out this guy, gave it a few whips, and didn't take a few steps, but he saw a spring in the valley, but he couldn't help but stop his steps.
At this time, it was getting late, the bright moon was hanging high, and the cold moonlight was sprinkled in the valley, and the strange scene made Li Ji, who had always been bold, feel a chill in his heart.
The valley is very small, you can see the bottom at a glance, but forty or fifty zhang square circle, there are several rows of simple thatched houses near the stone wall, nearly half of the valley is occupied, it is occupied by the water pool formed by a spring, the water pool is extremely shallow, there is an aerosol rising, obviously it is a hot spring, there are hundreds of children soaking in it.
These children, on closer inspection, can see that they are different from normal children, or they are missing arms and legs, or they have crooked noses and slanted eyes, or they are as restrained as shrimps, or they have ringworm on their skin, and they are all wearing loose linen robes, and they are immersed in water. Seeing Li Ji approaching, one hundred and ten pairs of eyes seemed to make people's hearts inexplicably tight and cold.
Li Ji completely forgot the purpose of his coming here at this time, and only looked at these children, like the beggar children he saw along the way, most of them were girls.
Until there was movement around him, a girl dressed as a maid came over, with a hint of doubt on her sweet face, "Mr. came here late at night, is there anything wrong?" “
Li Ji came back to his senses, for fear that the girl would misunderstand and startle these poor children, so he hurriedly pointed to the mule, "Girl, forgive me, my mule was lost, so I found it all the way, without the consent of the master, I was offended, forgive my sins." “
Hearing Li Ji talk about mules, the girl smiled, "But it turned out to be a mule looking for, it first ran in, I thought it was a wild mule without an owner." “
Li Ji smiled awkwardly, unwilling to go into the water to disturb the child, so he pursed his lips and whistled, beckoning the stupid mule to come over, but he didn't think that the stupid mule didn't pay attention, and just soaked in the spring water, as if enjoying it more.
The maid girl's heart was temperamental, and she giggled when she saw it, "It doesn't seem to listen to you......"
Li Ji couldn't, so he had to explain: "This mule, lazy and greedy, and still disobedient, sooner or later it will be caught back and beaten with a leather whip...... Girl, I don't know where it is? Why are there so many children who are immersed in water and are not afraid of catching a cold and getting sick? “
"Sir is too worried, this is Butterfly Valley, and the children are also bathing in hot springs, which has the function of calming and nourishing, but they will not get sick."
"Butterfly Valley? Isn't it the valley of Miss Huang Feiyan of the Huang family? When Li Jifang was talking to Miss Huang, he seemed to have heard something vaguely say, so he asked.
"It's Miss's Valley, doesn't Mr. Fei know Miss?" When the girl heard this, she cried out.
"I know, I just talked to Miss Huang, and I didn't expect such a coincidence, so I came to her territory...... What is the girl's last name? “
It was very abrupt to ask the girl's name, but Li Ji had not been practicing in the mortal world for a long time, and some rules were not very clear, the girl hesitated slightly, but still replied:
"Qiaolian, just call me Qiaolian."
"Miss Qiaolian, I look at these girls, I'm afraid there are hundreds of them? I don't know ......" Li Ji wanted to know the origin of these girls, but he didn't know how to ask.
Qiao Lian knew exactly what he was thinking, and everyone who saw these girls would have similar doubts.
"These children were picked up by the young lady in the neighborhood, and the children abandoned by their parents can have a full stomach here, and there are hot springs to soak in, which can relieve the pain on their bodies, which is better than being left out and sold to beggars by traffickers...... These are the children of this county, and the young lady often says that she wants to help more children, but the twin peaks are so big, how can they pick them up? Even if you pick it up, how can you raise it? “
"Your young lady is kind-hearted......"
Li Ji sighed a little, this world is not his previous life, those who can do this are real good people, not for grandstanding, they must have kindness, and they must have a certain amount of financial resources, otherwise they can't do this, and the dynasty of this world will not lend a helping hand for this.
"Miss, Miss is also sympathetic, sympathetic, those bosses in the clan don't agree, and they have to deduct Miss's monthly example, saying that she wasted money indiscriminately, this time Miss is going back to see if she can get something, and if it goes on like this, I really don't know how long it can last."
Li Ji didn't know what to say, he suddenly found that he was a little irresponsible when he left, leaving such a kind-hearted disabled woman behind, just to settle his own cause and effect, is this a cultivator who has no sympathy?
From Qiao Lian's words, he can also hear some clues, the so-called empathy, sympathy? It is very likely that Huang Feiyan himself is a victim of the Pufa Temple, so he tries his best to help these children for the same reason, but these things and personal **, and she is a girl, so she can't ask, and there is no need to ask.
"Stop, I might have to come back."
Li Ji turned around and walked back, before he knew about this matter, his distribution of the Huang family's wealth might have been reasonable; But after knowing what Huang Feiyan was doing, it was completely wrong to distribute it like this; But Li Ji has no intention of taking back the property given to those branches, and he may not be able to do it, even if he kills people, I am afraid he will not be able to stop people's greed.
But he doesn't care, the Zodiac people's belongings are divided, but his Li Ji's wealth is only more than that of the Zodiac people, he didn't know where to spend it before, but now he knows, he doesn't mind taking out all his mortal belongings, and there are more than 100,000 taels of gold.
The distance of ten miles is just around the corner, the Huang family's mansion is now brightly lit and full of people, this time Li Ji didn't go to the main gate, jumped in from the side wall, and went straight to Huang Feiyan's small courtyard.
Before he got close, he found that the originally deserted small courtyard was now surrounded by people, and those Huang clan people were like chicken blood, shouting and screaming, no need to ask, no need to listen, it was clear that this was the huge property of the old and young masters who had taken a fancy to the orphan girl.
Implicitly blaming himself for mishandling, he handed over a huge sum of money to a woman who had no ability to protect herself without any security measures, if it weren't for the stubborn mule's strength, and he happened to run to Butterfly Valley, I'm afraid his trip to Twin Peaks would end in failure.
Holding back the killing intent in his heart, Li Ji jumped onto the high wall, drew his long sword and shouted:
"If I count three times, if I don't leave, I'll die...... One, two......"
Seeing this killer come back, the Huang clan scattered in a hurry, the two severed limbs in the lobby are vivid, and the newly hidden silver under the bed has not yet had time to enjoy, who is going to compete with this killer star? In the blink of an eye, it was clean.
