A Queen

Chapter 21 Buying a Horse

After consolidating her cultivation, the bloody light in Dai Li's eyes had faded, but the dark night and dense forest in front of her could be seen clearly, as if it were daytime.

She quickly searched through the clothes of the men in black and found some silver coins and elixirs from them. They were not of high grade, just some ordinary hemostatic powders, corpse-transforming water and disguise pills. It was said that she could use this corpse-transforming water. These are the only killers in the world, and Yi Rong Dan is a must-have medicine when traveling to escape!

"Poor man! Your master is quite stingy! But this pill is quite useful to me."

Dai Li put more than a hundred taels of silver and pills into his arms, and ran towards the dark forest, disappearing without a trace. However, Dai Li was not worried at all about these corpses. In this world of immortal heroes, there are countless perverts of immortals and demons, and they are alive and well. There are ghosts that eat people, not to mention those who are sucked by blood, and there will be wild beasts that will eat these corpses clean!

Originally, Dai Li had to run around late at night, but after doing this, she wasted a lot of time. When she reached the halfway point of the mountain, she saw the fish belly turning white.

The clear morning light shone in a quiet mountain stream, and the stream was flowing with broken light. Dai Li washed the blood on his face against the gurgling stream, and then he realized that her eyes seemed a little different than before, as if they were more beautiful. It was brighter, as if there was some hidden light. Dai Li narrowed his eyes and sprinkled the stream water on his face, shattering the mirror image on the water.

In the shade of the trees in the shadow of the mountain stream, the previous clothes were stained with a lot of blood, and they must not be worn anymore! Dai Li quickly put on a loose, light and simple gown, took the Disguise Pill, and applied the Qi to his face. His facial features gradually became distorted, and he soon turned into a girl of about 15 years old. The reason why she wanted to disguise herself was because It was because those in the Dai family only knew that he was a boy, but it was hard to imagine that she would turn into an ordinary girl and take care of everything, so Dai Li turned around and walked out of the mountain stream.

Qili Pavilion is a tea shop located in Luoxing City and Qinglong Town. Carriages come and go. Pedestrians will take a rest here, drink a bowl of tea, or eat a few steamed buns to ward off thirst and hunger.

The owner of the tea shop is a man with a kind face and a strong body. Passing merchants also asked him why he did not join the army, but instead resigned himself to becoming a bun seller. After all, Daxia is now in the midst of an invasion by foreign enemies, and many towns are recruiting people. Wu Bing, in the end, people just laughed and said, "I'm afraid of death!"

Afraid of death, who is not afraid of death? If you don’t have the talent for cultivation, joining the army is just a matter of putting your head in your belt. It’s better to be a bandit than to be relaxed and comfortable. To be a squad leader in the army requires four acquired skills. With the previous level of cultivation, hehe, he can only be used as cannon fodder or a gang leader.

While the businessmen were eating, drinking, talking and laughing, there was an incessant "noise" coming from the side.

Dai Li has ordinary facial features and darker skin,

Coupled with the dull look she can put on, people who don't know her might think she is a dull village girl at first glance, but this village girl is talking about business~

Horse vendors all do business here, because the horses that come and go for business trips often burp. They can definitely make a profit doing business at this time, but slaughtering fattened sheep is what makes their adrenaline levels rise the most. It's fun, but the hawker is not interested when he sees Dai Litu looking like a garbage man, so he just utters this sentence out of habit.

"Little girl, this horse is great! It's fat and strong! It can run fast! Thousands of miles in one day is no problem!"

Dai Li turned sideways to avoid the hawker's spit, took a step back, and pointed at the belly of a horse next to him with an extremely dull expression, "Fat? Are you referring to its big belly? My mother said that , with such a big belly, she must be seven or eight months pregnant, she wouldn’t have just run a hundred meters away to give birth to me, right?”

Phew, the businessmen drinking tea not far away got angry, and even the tea shop owner looked over with a wry smile.

The hawker has had his price bargained by countless people, but he has never been so squeezed by anyone, but this little girl still acts like I am very honest!

His face turned red and he shouted angrily, "Why is she pregnant? He is a male! Male! And horse fat can store fat and run long distances. You don't understand! You don't understand!"

Dai Li touched his nose and made a soft sound. He seemed to have agreed with the hawker's words. This made the hawker breathe a sigh of relief. Come on, it would be easy to sell this bad horse and save you the trouble of bragging to others.

As a result, after a while, Dai Li did not take out the silver, but said directly, "If you are fat, you can run far? How about I buy a pig? If I am hungry, I can cut some meat and cook it." .

Many businessmen were lying on the table overjoyed, and the tea shop owner smiled and said loudly, "I told him to sell him a better horse. Why would you want to pull this poor horse out and let people run around? Besides, this little girl has sharp eyes." It’s here!”

The vendor was helpless and snorted coldly. Seeing Dai Li's clear eyes, he knew that Dai Li was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger for fun, so he had no choice but to take out another horse from the stable.

The price was quickly negotiated. Daili himself was not in the habit of haggling, and the vendor saw that Daili was very dark inside. He was afraid of being squeezed out again, so he didn't ask for a high price, but offered a real price.

The horse was barely able to pass. It was tall and strong, with powerful hooves and beautiful coat. Dai Li was satisfied, so he took out twenty taels of silver from his arms and threw it to the hawker, who happily picked it up. When I was staying in Yinliang, I glared with my toes, jumped on the horse neatly, pulled the reins, shouted, "Drive!", the horse spread its iron hooves and ran towards the path ahead...

People in the tea shop were surprised when they first saw Dai Li's behavior. The boss wiped his hands with a rag and walked out. He watched Dai Li riding a horse on the trail and rolled up the smoke, "Oh, I I was mistaken, this girl is very brave." How could a rural girl have such beautiful horseback riding skills?

————————————————————————————

At the Dai Family in Luoxing City and the Yuqi Villa, Madam Yu was quite uneasy. It was already noon, and the people who were sent crawled back even if they crawled back, but they still didn’t hear the news coming back. This made her He was not very interested in the nourishing and beautifying decoction that the family had spent a lot of money to buy.

And her usual subordinate, Manager Wang, was also surprised and confused. Why haven't those bastards come back yet? Have they been robbed by someone else? impossible

The two of them had different thoughts, and the room was a little quiet for a while. After a while, the steward's footsteps came from outside the house, a little hasty, and his voice was also a little panicked, "Mrs. Yu, all the people we sent are dead! The corpses were all eaten up by the wild beasts on Qingshan, and we just sent people to find their bones."

"What!" Mrs. Yu's hand shook, her eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and she was no longer as delicate and charming as before.

"No matter who killed our people, it means that the little beast may have escaped, or someone may be protecting her! Send more people over, and be sure to kill her before the clan competition!"

What she is afraid of is not that Daili can surpass her son, because that is impossible. What she is afraid of is that Daili's cultivation talent will recover. Then even if she is not as good as her son, she can fight against Daili with Ye Ranqiu's status. His deep love can firmly secure his position as the eldest son!

She would never allow this to happen!

————————

Dai Li rode a horse through the vast world. The mountains and flowing water became especially lovely in her eyes. The breath in her mouth and nose made her feel more comfortable. At this moment, she regained a little bit of the vitality that a human being should have. But it only took a while for her to regain her composure. Now she had to find a place to stay and spend the night, otherwise it would be too dangerous to travel at night.

There are no villages here, because they are far away from Luo Xing City and sparsely populated. It is too difficult to find a place to stay. Dai Li hesitated several times whether he should go into the mountains and forests to spend the night, but he was also afraid of wild beasts attacking him.

When the moon was about to climb into the sky, Dai Li finally stopped his horse in front of a medium-sized red-walled temple.

Click, click, the horse's hoofs left shallow hoof prints on the ground that was neither soft nor hard. Dai Li tied the horse's rope to the pillar at the door before stepping into the temple.

The temple is neither big nor small, and there is only a Buddha statue that is two people tall in the front hall. Because the moonlight is dark and the candles have not been lit, looking up from Daili, there is no solemnity at all, but it looks extremely eerie. . ()
