BXBX NOVEL Chapter 11: Responsibility
Chapter 11: Responsibility
Qin Yi stayed up all night last night, so he was also sleepy at this time. Seeing Li Qingjun’s appearance, he was very puzzled, “Why are you staring at me? Just go sleep?”
Li Qingjun said, “If I’m asleep too, what to do if you have ill-intention to us?”
“Crazy.” Qin Yi didn’t bother to talk to her. He sat on the railing, leaned against the pillar, and was lost in thought.
I’m a little surprised at how easily the Li Family’s brother and sister could deal with these beastkin monsters. I somehow feel that low-level immortal cultivators who can use some low-level spells may not be smoother than them in dealing with the previous winged tiger and the spider beastkin.
I also enjoy the pleasure of smashing with the mace…
It is a pity that martial arts obviously have some limitations. They can’t deal with some strange spells. Otherwise, Li Qinglin wouldn’t come to the mountain to ask for my help, and Li Qingjun wouldn’t always be caught in some low-end traps and poisons… In other words, pure martial arts really didn’t work.
But it seems to be just because this girl is too reckless and inexperienced… While thinking about it, he couldn’t help but glance at Li Qingjun again.
Li Qingjun sat on the stone table, resting her chin on one hand and still looking at Qin Yi.
Qin Yi was very helpless, “Why are you staring at me?”
“Judging from your cold and cautious character, you did even help when we were killing the tiger. What’s more, you and I had a dispute, why did you save me?”
“After all, you and I are companions now. If something happens right in front of me, wouldn’t it be unreasonable if I don’t take action?”
Li Qingjun smiled, “Companions?”
The smile was not happy, but rather mocking.
Qin Yi cast a squinting glance and said coldly, “I know you have a high status. I’m out of my league, okay.”
“That’s not what I meant.” Li Qingjun smiled, “It’s just that I haven’t heard such a title for a long time. It’s a little… well, a little new.”
Seeing that her attitude was not what he imagined, Qin Yi’s tone became a little better. He sighed, “What are your identities? At first, I thought you guys come from a general family, but listening to your words, it doesn’t seem to be the case.”
They were all planning to deal with Dong Huazi together, so there was no need to keep this secret. Li Qingjun replied casually, “Brother is the prince, the second prince of South Li Kingdom.”
“Your brother is a prince…” This showoff is quite extraordinary. Qin Yi was stunned for a long time. His expression gradually became a little embarrassed.
Li Qinglin is a prince, then who is Li Qingjun?
In other words, I actually hung the princess of this kingdom upside down at the door and drenched her with milky white liquid…
Fortunately, I didn’t take advantage of her, otherwise I can’t explain myself if I’m beheaded.
What kind of strange kingdom is this? The prince and princess travel alone to the deep mountains without even a guard, and they are so excited to personally eliminate the beastkins and demons? The prince even said that if the princess falls into my hands, it is because she is inexperienced? The princess still wants to be a fairy all day long?
This kingdom is really crazy.
“What?” Li Qingjun said sarcastically, “Scared?”
Qin Yi was very honest, “A bit.”
“Scared that I will use my status to retaliate against you?” Li Qingjun said lazily, “Don’t worry. I didn’t even do anything to those rude wanderers.”
I seem to be more than rude… But thinking of this, it is really not easy for the Li Family’s brother and sister. With this identity, they can actually endure the humiliation of wanderers… Maybe it’s because as Li Qinglin said, no matter what Identity one is, murdering someone will be a little troublesome?
Of course he didn’t say it. He just said, “A member of the royal family seeks taoist. I feel that I seem to be involved in the most troublesome matter in the world, so I’m scared.”
Li Qingjun quickly understood what he was referring to, and she couldn’t help laughing, “As a villager in the countryside, why do you have such an attitude towards the royal family? It’s unbelievable. Don’t worry. My brother is not looking you for this. You can think of this as the battle between good and evil.”
Good and evil your ass! Even if it’s not a power struggle for the throne, it must be a court power struggle, okay? Qin Yi didn’t laugh at her naivety, but instead asked her, “You’re a princess, not a chivalrous martial artist. Seeing such a disgusting beastkin monster, I clearly saw that you were terrified, but you were the first to step forward with a spear. What were you thinking?”
Li Qingjun said calmly, “This taoist temple is in my South Li Kingdom. The taoist inside is my people, even those wanderers. It is my responsibility to protect my territory and keep the people safe, not the so call chivalrous martial artist.”
Qin Yi’s eyes moved slightly, and he turned to look at Li Qingjun’s expression.
Her eyes were very serious; still so heroic.
“Drink alcohol?” Qin Yi took out a gourd, “This gourd is new. I have never drunk it.”
The gourd was thrown, and Li Qingjun caught it casually. Qin Yi toasted from a distance, “I respect you.”
Li Qingjun smiled, pulled out the stopper, raised her head and took a big gulp. Her manner was unrestrained.
Qin Yi also took a big sip. The rain was pouring down outside the pavilion. Looking at the rain curtain outside the eaves, he suddenly felt that this trip to Li Fire City might be very interesting.
Liu Su complained, “Boring sense of purpose. Doesn’t even know how to be a princess.”
Qin Yi’s expression remained unchanged, but he quietly farted at the mace.
…
Early the next morning, the air was refreshing after raining for the entire night.
Li Qingjun woke up from the table and saw that her brother was already talking with Qin Yi outside the pavilion. She blushed a little. She was saying to guard against Qin Yi, but she fell asleep at some point in time. Judging from this situation, maybe Qin Yi guarded her and her brother all night.
The scene of being held by Qin Yi’s waist twice last night could not help appearing in her mind.
She felt uncomfortable just thinking about it; her waist still felt hot. But he did that to save me… Li Qingjun couldn’t say anything, what could she do except stare at him?
Walking out of the pavilion, her brother asked Qin Yi, “Brother Qin didn’t sleep all night?”
“I’m used to refining medicine all night and staring at the fire, so I’m fine.”
Li Qinglin nodded and didn’t ask any further questions. He just looked at the taoist temple in a daze for a while and sighed, “Burn it.”
Qin Yi let out an “en“. Of course, this taoist temple should be burnt down. Seeing Li Qinglin take out a flame stick, Qin Yi suddenly said, “Wait a minute.”
Li Qinglin watched Qin Yi strangely go to get the backpack from the horse, took out a bottle, and sprinkled it around the taoist temple.
Li Qingjun walked out of the pavilion and asked strangely, “What are you doing?”
“Oh, it’s for fire prevention. I usually sprinkle some at home so that it won’t cause fire when refining medicine.” Qin Yi raised his head and smiled, “If you want to burn the Taoist temple, be careful not to burn the mountain.”
Li Qingjun muttered, “It’s not easy to light even the taoist temple after the rain, and you’re afraid of burning the mountain.”
Then Qin Yi took out another bottle and sprinkled some on the window lattice of the taoist temple.
“What’s this?”
“Quick-acting drying powder.”
“…so many weird things.”
“Of course, otherwise why did you invite me?”
The conversation ended here. The 3 of them looked at each other and suddenly laughed at the same time.
The taoist temple blazed ragingly. The flames were strangely controlled within the circle where Qin Yi had sprinkled the powder. Li Qingjun looked at it for a while and smacked her tongue in amazement. This was really something that martial arts couldn’t do. If martial arts wanted to limit such a fire, they could only dig a ditch around the taoist temple arbitrarily, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive.
“Hey.” Li Qingjun asked Qin Yi suddenly, “When we get to the town later, I need to wash up. Do you still have that toothbrush?”
“I have.” Qin Yi smiled, “Do you think I can have a life if I sell toothbrushes in Li Fire City?”
Li Qinglin couldn’t help laughing, “Although I don’t know what toothbrush you are talking about, it would be a pity if Brother Qin’s ambition is only to be a merchant.”
Qin Yi smiled without saying a word.
The three of them led the horses and walked down the mountain slowly. Halfway there, Li Qinglin stopped, looked back at the fire on the mountain, and sighed softly.
Qin Yi asked, “Why?”
“It was rare for beastkins to eat people in the past, but it has happened a lot in the past few months. This must be related to beastkin transformation miasma…” Li Qinglin paused, then he continued in a low voice, ” No matter what he is planning… If this person is not eliminated, the beastkins will surely bring disaster to the kingdom. The royal court will fall.”
