Wandao long distance

Chapter 40
The mountains are high and the water is long, and the green trees are lush.

Li Qi carried a big pannier on his back, weighing his purse distressedly.

Nine hundred and ninety-two dollars, now only 92 dollars are left.

And what he got in exchange was this big backpack on his body.

There are many things in it.

The big backpack itself is not cheap.

Kraft paper for rain protection, long-storable rice cakes, and some dried bacon.

A large piece of canvas can be folded up in the wild to become a large bag for carrying things, rolled up to be a handy short rope, and can also be used as a quilt cover, and it is also wear-resistant and fire-resistant.

Two hatchets and a small whetstone are at least some sharp tools in case of accidents in the wild. They can also be used to cut vines blocking the road, and they can also chop firewood for fire.

Some flints, two pieces of flint, needless to say, are used to make fire, usually use flints, and if there is an emergency, you can use a flint that can be ignited with a flick.

There are also acne medicines, insecticides, some essential medicines, and necessities for survival in the wild.

A piece of linen, some knives, spatulas, iron heads of farm tools and so on. I brought these for customer sales. When I went to some villages, I could sell some blood.

If you are poor, you can earn a little bit.

In addition, there are many small bits and pieces, so I won't mention them one by one.

All in all, Li Qi made sufficient preparations to cope with the long journey ahead.

Moreover, he spent a huge sum of money, a total of sixty yuan, to change Shen Shuibi's clothes.

Her previous white dress with scarves and hollows was in line with Mr. Zhu's style of painting, but walking with herself was like a victim who was about to be robbed.

So I changed her into a girl's linen clothes, and now she looks like a pretty village girl.

Although it is a bit too pretty, how can normal villagers raise such a beauty?
After all, in ordinary villages or gang members like Li Qi, the female members of the family, even if they are naturally beautiful and beautiful, most of them still need to work and manage the family.

No matter how good-looking they are by nature, they wash and cook, pound rice and chop firewood every day since they were young. Any naturally beautiful person will look like a peasant woman when she grows up like this, with big arms and round waists and rough skin, which is very unattractive.

But to be honest, people of Li Qi's class need this kind of wife.

Because they are familiar with all kinds of affairs, they are quick to do things, they are strong, they are not easy to get sick, and they can do farm work or help their husbands with heavy physical work.

If you really have a big beauty with tender skin, petite figure, and delicate habits at home, even if she doesn't cause trouble for you, the fact that she can't do the work alone can make the family overwhelmed.

I can't afford it.

If she is willing to share the burden for her husband, she will work for at most two years, and like other peasant women, she will become big and round, and her beauty will no longer be.

Therefore, even if Shen Shuibi was wearing linen clothes, she could still tell at a glance that she was definitely not an ordinary person.

But that doesn't matter anymore, after all, Li Qi feels that he should not be considered an ordinary person now, and should be able to cover him, as long as he doesn't stand out so much.

Walking on the road, Li Qi looked at Shen Shuibi, who was lightly dressed, didn't bring any luggage, was carefree, and was leading the way like an outing.

It reminded him of the conversation he had had when he set off.

At that time, Li Qi asked: "Miss Shen, how did you determine the direction? Where is Lady Luo Fu?"

"Feeling~, I have been by your mother's side since I was a child, and I knew where your mother was when I opened my eyes. As long as I follow my feeling, I will definitely find her!" Shen Shuibi confidently clenched her small fists and said swearingly.

To be honest, Li Qi only felt that it was very unreliable.

But there is no way, this is a world full of ghosts and monsters, maybe it will be really useful.

Then... a trip that neither knew the destination nor arranged an itinerary, just started.

The two walked along the way, Li Qi was carrying a big pannier, which contained all their luggage, while Shen Shuibi didn't bring anything, she was wearing new clothes, and walked forward with empty hands.

At first, Li Qi doubted her approach.

But after walking for two days, Li Qicai realized that the other party really didn't need luggage.

Shen Shuibi can actually keep her body clean from dust, even if she walks in the wild, she won't get dirty at all, she doesn't sweat or smell, even if she falls down, her face is ashamed, when she gets up from the ground with a bitter face, the dust It will also slide off her naturally without sticking to the skin at all.

On top of that, she doesn't have to eat!

Yes, according to what she said, she is born with a different species, not an ordinary monster, so she doesn't need to eat ordinary food, she just needs to eat wind and drink dew, and inhale different qi.

Because of this, she doesn't have to excrete, she doesn't sweat, she doesn't even have to breathe if she wants to, but breathing is just a means of eating for her.

No bathing, no sweating, always clean, always beautiful.

This fucking...Two-dimensional beautiful girl?

Is it so easy?

All in all, there is no logistical pressure at all to take this thing on the road, she can walk by herself, and she can run quite fast.

Very good, very good.

The two of them trekked through the wild mountains for three days.

On this day, at noon, Li Qi needed to take a break, make some lunch, replenish his energy, and rest his feet by the way.

Shen Shuibi also understands that not everyone can be like her without eating or taking a shower and still be full of vitality, so she patiently waited beside her.

After three days of getting along, the two of them are not so unfamiliar anymore, but Shen Shuibi usually doesn't have much to talk about, and the topics are basically brought up by Li Qi to relieve boredom on the road, so now Li Qi is going to fetch water and cook, and she is bored Without speaking, he looked into the distance.

She didn't lie to Li Qi, she really didn't know where the empress was, but the little rabbit could indeed vaguely perceive the location of the empress.

It's just... After walking for three days, she didn't feel that the distance had gotten much closer.

This means that the distance traveled in these three days is actually nothing compared to the distance of the empress.

She didn't tell Li Qi this, because she was afraid that if she said so, Li Qi would not want to go to find the empress with her.

Because he walked the mountain road very hard, and he was different from himself.

I walked more than 200 miles in the past three days, but if I want to find the empress, it is estimated that I will have to walk tens of thousands of miles.

If the empress does not change her position, she may have to walk for a year and a half.

"Alas..." She sighed, at this speed, it would take a long time to walk.

If only there were horses.

It's a pity that Li Qi was very poor and couldn't afford it. A horse cost twenty or thirty gold. Although Shen Shuibi didn't think it was that expensive, Li Qi definitely couldn't afford it.

While thinking this way, she suddenly stood up.

Up ahead...the neighing of a horse?
