In a short while, the officers and soldiers had searched the carriage that Shen Li was sitting in.Someone knocked on the window of the carriage with a sword: "Everyone come down, the government conducts a routine search."
A group of snake catchers got out of the carriage one after another cursing in low voices. Yu Er was about to get out of the carriage when he was suddenly stopped by Shen Li.
"Second Brother Yu..." Shen Li called out in a low voice, hesitant to speak.
Yu Er was startled for a moment, then he understood and nodded to him: "Don't get out of the car, I'll help you deal with it."
"Thank you."
"Is there anyone else, why are you dawdling, come down!"
The officers and soldiers urged impatiently, Yu Er hurriedly turned his head, grabbed some money from the carriage and jumped out of the carriage: "The officer made atonement, and he is here."
The snake catchers stood beside the carriage and were questioned one by one.
Yu Er handed over some money to honor his filial piety, and he was both apologetic and flattering, and talked to the leader: "...Officer, who are you looking for?"
"We don't know either." Yu Er was generous, and the leader took the money, and then his expression eased, "He is a good-looking boy, only sixteen or seventeen years old, where do you think he can find it?"
Hearing this, the faces of the snake catchers present all changed.Yu Er winked at them calmly, and asked again: "Then... what did you do that made all the officials so troublesome to find them?"
"I don't know." The leader shook his head and sighed, "He said he was a fugitive from Biandu, and he didn't say what he did. Besides, we belong to Tianyu, so we can't find it anyway. Alas, who knows What do you mean by the above... okay, it seems that you don't seem to be going to make trouble, so hurry up and leave."
"Thank you, sir."
Shen Li sat in the carriage holding his breath. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly heard a voice in front of the carriage: "Did you find anything?"
Shen Li's eyes moved slightly, and he heard the voice.
Qi Changzhao's personal servant, Bei Xuan.
The leading officer and soldier was just a temporary transfer from nearby, and he didn't know Beixuan's true identity. The team is going to Tianyu to sell snakes, so they often go to Fengshan, no problem."
Beixuan was noncommittal, his delicate face had a calm and majestic temperament.He looked at the carriage up and down, and was about to step forward to lift the curtain, when Yu Er suddenly stepped forward to stop him: "Oh, my lord!"
Yu Er repeated his old tricks, and was about to stuff money to get close, but Bei Xuan keenly noticed the strangeness: "Why don't you let me see, there are people in this car?"
In front of well-trained secret guards, people from the mountains like Yu Er can hardly hide their true emotions.Beixuan saw him immediately, turned his head and used the sword in his hand to lift the curtain of the car, but was pushed back a few steps by a force inside the car.
"Someone!" The officers and soldiers present were all startled, they only waited for the sound of a sharp knife being unsheathed, and they quickly stepped forward and surrounded the carriage.
Only Beixuan looked calm, and said softly to the carriage: "The master is very worried about the safety of the young master, and his subordinates are ordered to come and take the young master home."
There was no response from inside the carriage.
After a while, Beixuan seemed to realize something, and stepped forward to lift the curtain of the car in two or three steps.The car was empty, and there was no sign of anyone there.
"..." He cursed silently, turned his head and walked quickly to the distance, "You can't run far, go find it!"
A ray of white light fell in the woods not far from the convoy, Shen Li emerged from the light, looked back at the noisy crowd in the distance, and walked towards the dense forest.
Since Beixuan is here, it means that Qi Changzhao should not be far away.
He has to run away.
This place is not far from the Tianyi Divine Sect, Shen Li wanted to go to the Tianyi Divine Sect to obtain the last magic weapon with the help of the Demon Sect.But he didn't expect that Qi Changzhao would send someone to guard here in advance.
Even if his spiritual power is not enough to go back to Tianyi Shenzong directly with the sword, he can only rely on mortal chariots and horses to go there.
Shen Li walked forward quickly, and took out a black token from his arms.
This was given to him by the suzerain when he left Tianyi Shenzong.Not only can it prove the identity of the holy envoy, but it can also send a distress signal to Tianyi Shenzong at a critical moment.
Shen Li rubbed the surface of the token, and was about to inject spiritual power into it, when a strange sound suddenly came from his ear.
He didn't even want to pick up a handful of fallen leaves and throw them behind him. The fallen leaves condensed into sharp blades in mid-air, wrapped in the strong wind.
A silver light flashed in the forest, and all the blades were cut off by the sword energy, turning back into leaves and falling lightly.
Amongst the fallen leaves, a plain white figure walked towards him slowly.
Shen Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he subconsciously stepped forward to escape.
Qi Changzhao called out loudly: "A Li!"
Hearing that familiar voice, Shen Li stopped in his tracks, for some reason, he couldn't find the strength to move forward.Qi Changzhao's expression softened a little, and he said in a gentle voice, "A Li, why are you running around again, come back with me."
Shen Li's eyes were suddenly covered with redness, he didn't dare to turn his head, and just stood there.
Qi Changzhao took a step forward: "You promised me that you would not run away again, what happened, please tell me?"
"Don't come here." Shen Li put the token back in his arms, took a deep breath, and when he turned to face Qi Changzhao, his expression had returned to normal, "You don't have to lie to me anymore, I already know."
"It's been so many years, I never thought we'd see each other again... Ah Yun."
Qi Changzhao's expression changed.
He knew that his identity would be exposed sooner or later, and he had envisioned many possible scenarios, but undoubtedly, this was the worst one.
"Who told you?" Qi Changzhao asked eagerly, with a serious expression, "Is it the system? It's still here?"
"It doesn't matter who told me." Shen Li's mouth seemed to be grasped tightly by an invisible hand, and he could hardly hear what he was saying under the severe pain, "I'm sorry for you, if you want revenge, I have no grievances." No regrets. Now that I am in front of you, if you still want to do something, just come.”
"I'm not..." Qi Changzhao subconsciously wanted to defend himself, but soon realized something from Shen Li's words.
He said in disbelief: "Do you think... I treat you like this just to get revenge on you?"
Shen Li turned his eyes away and looked at the ground in front of him.
explain.
He thought almost humble in his heart, tell me you didn't lie to me, tell me that everything the system says is false, I will believe it.
But Qi Changzhao didn't say anything, he took another two steps forward, and said softly: "Let's talk about it when we go back? Give me the magic weapon, and then go back with me."
The meager hope in Shen Xin's heart gradually faded away.
He smiled bitterly, and said in a low voice, "I feel it, Ah Yun."
"what?"
Shen Li raised his hand and pressed it on his heart, his voice was hoarse and trembling: "That knife really hurt back then, I felt it."
What hurts is not the sharp knife piercing the flesh, but the sincerity that was crushed by deception.
"A Li, I..."
Without waiting for Qi Changzhao to say anything, Shen Li suddenly raised his hand, and a dagger appeared in his palm.The silver-white blade slowly changed and extended amidst the dazzling white light, and a piercing sword aura rose from the open space, wrapping Shen Li within it.
After the light dissipated, only a slender fairy sword remained in his hand.
Shen Li stretched out his sword and pointed it at Qi Changzhao.
Shen Li didn't care about his swordsmanship, and rarely used it unless it was absolutely necessary.Coupled with the low spiritual power in this world, he doesn't need much cultivation at all.This was even the first time he summoned a sword after he came to this world.
But he himself did not expect that the first time he summoned the sword, it was aimed at this person.
"Old rules, a fight."
Shen Li stood with a sword in his hand, his clothes and hair were windless and active, making his figure even thinner: "If you win, I will hand over all the magic weapons and let you dispose of them. If you lose, let me go."
"Calm down, we..."
"Sword!"
Qi Changzhao closed his eyes and tried his best to keep his voice steady: "You have less than [-]% of your spiritual power left. Even if I win, I won't win by force. I won't fight with you."
A mocking smile flashed in Shen Li's eyes, and his figure suddenly disappeared in the wind.In the next second, Qi Changzhao only felt a sword energy coming from behind him, and instinctively summoned his sword to resist.
The billowing spiritual energy surged in the open space, Qi Changzhao took a few steps back and raised his head in surprise.
Shen Li also staggered back a few steps before stabilizing his body, and when he straightened up again, he still had that calm look on his face: "But I remember that I taught you not to underestimate your opponent at any time."
With the sound of the wind, two sword shadows were fighting in the clearing in the forest, the movements were so fast that it was difficult to see clearly.
Shen Li's spiritual power is insufficient now, but his swordsmanship has not regressed at all.The swordsmanship attainments that were enough to surpass the cultivation world in the previous life are unmatched here.
——Including Qi Changzhao, who has won the true inheritance of his swordsmanship.
In the previous life, the two also often had this kind of point-to-point discussion, but without exception, they were all crushed by Shen Li unilaterally.Even in the last battle, Qi Changzhao never got any advantage from his subordinates.
Even now, even if this person has less than [-]% of his spiritual power left, Qi Changzhao found that he still couldn't easily defeat this person.
However, the limitation of spiritual power was not so easy to overcome, and Shen Li's movement of drawing the sword gradually slowed down.
Qi Changzhao saw the flaw in his moves, leaned forward, only heard the sharp sound of sharp blades striking each other, and Shen Li's sword came out of his hand.At the same time, a fairy sword rested lightly on his neck.
Qi Changzhao sighed: "You lost, Master."
Shen Li lowered his eyes and asked softly: "Do you think so?"
Qi Changzhao's expression changed drastically, he instinctively felt something was wrong, but it was already too late.
A silver-white formation unfolded under his feet, and several spiritual cables flew out of the formation, instantly binding his hands and feet tightly.
The outcome was instantly reversed.
Shen Li didn't look at Qi Changzhao again.He picked up the accompanying sword that had fallen aside, turned it back into a dagger and hid it in his sleeve, staring at Feng Shan in the distance: "I just hoped that you would win."
Qi Changzhao tried his best to struggle, but the rope became tighter and tighter, and he was forced to land on one knee, almost unable to move.
Shen Li's eyes were a little blurry, he blinked hard, and swallowed the sourness in his throat: "Although you have been lying to me, I have to say, I am really happy these days. This should be me...except It was the happiest period of time outside Lingyunjian's few years."
Unfortunately, everything ends here.
Shen Li wanted to say something more, but he didn't know how to start it.He shook his head with a wry smile, and walked forward.
"Stop." Qi Changzhao said suddenly, "You really just left like this, regardless of any consequences?"
Shen Li paused, vaguely aware of something, and looked back at him: "What are you talking about..."
His voice stopped abruptly.
Not far behind the two, several officers and soldiers had already taken the snake catchers into custody.Bei Xuan stood in front of the team, with a long knife resting on Yu Er's neck.
Shen Li narrowed his eyes and said hurriedly: "What are you going to do, I lied to them, all this has nothing to do with them!"
"Sorry, I don't want to force you in this way, but I can't just watch you leave." Qi Changzhao was still trapped in the magic circle, he looked up at Shen Li, his voice almost pleading, "Come back with me, ah Li, the misunderstanding between us, I can explain it to you slowly, as long as you are willing to stay..."
As long as he is willing to stay...
Shen Li suddenly felt a little ridiculous, why wouldn't he stay, obviously he was the one who wanted to stay the most.
But does he have a reason to stay?
Shen Li raised his eyes to look into the distance again, and the snake catchers held hostage by the officers and soldiers were also staring at this side without blinking.The bright blades were pressed against their necks, it seemed that as long as Shen Li shook his head, their blood would immediately splatter on the spot.
After a while, Shen Li breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Okay, let them go, and I will go back with you."
As his words fell, the magic circle glowing with silvery white light dissipated in the open space.
Shen Li suddenly felt that all the strength in his body was exhausted at this moment. He staggered forward, but his legs gave way and he almost fell.
He fell into a familiar embrace.
Qi Changzhao embraced that thin body, and kissed his temples tenderly: "It's all right, I'll take you back, it's all right..."
A group of snake catchers got out of the carriage one after another cursing in low voices. Yu Er was about to get out of the carriage when he was suddenly stopped by Shen Li.
"Second Brother Yu..." Shen Li called out in a low voice, hesitant to speak.
Yu Er was startled for a moment, then he understood and nodded to him: "Don't get out of the car, I'll help you deal with it."
