Chapter 107 Li Ke, longing for a peaceful life
"Li Ke, are you really not going to help Shen?"
Ali, the homely housewife who was cutting watermelon for Li Ke, brought the watermelon that had been chilled in ice water to him. Her tail behind her drove away the mosquitoes , allowing the two of them to have some peace and quiet for a while.
"Well, that's about right. After all, for me, my strength is not enough. Being a lord of a small place is too boring. This world is so vast... Besides, it's not like I did nothing. Didn't I ask Xia to contact her people? Shen will definitely have to reconcile the Vastaya race in the future. I can just help him in this regard."
Li Ke put down the scroll in his hand, put it away carefully, and then picked up the watermelon handed to him by Ali.
Yes, although Li Ke did not accept Shen’s invitation, he did not do nothing.
If he wants to be in a high position with less trouble, he needs help and investment in the early stages. At least his idea of establishing a place where Ionians and Vastayans can live together has not changed.
He was constantly trying to get involved in the establishment of the country, but it was not a big problem to establish a model of harmonious coexistence between the two races and a stable rear.
As for why he is not interested in power?
His ability.
If he develops his ability well, the benefits this ability brings him will surely far exceed becoming a king.
Having such ability but not developing it well and instead stirring up trouble, taking risks, trying to find a way out, and getting involved in the politics and war between the two countries is extremely stupid no matter how you look at it.
It was a necessary activity before, and no one except him could make changes, so he had no choice but to step forward.
So, essentially, he longs for a peaceful life.
But now that Shen and Jie are willing to do it, and do it willingly, after he has provided help with technology and execution methods, there is naturally no need for him to interfere.
after all……
He never thought of himself as an Ionian, and that booklet was very powerful. Ionia was at the center of the storm, so as long as he didn't mess around, he could get to the top by copying homework.
"And I have to learn the secret arts of my family. Although I don't have magical abilities, the same may not be true for our children. If I don't study hard, how can I teach my children in the future?"
Pointing to the scroll in front of him, Li Ke said that his family's inheritance was more important.
This was the scroll that Elder Su Ma had given him for safekeeping. He had not originally intended to read it, but when Ahri was tidying up things, she accidentally opened it, and so Li Ke saw this secret scroll of the Wind Control Sword Technique.
To be honest, when Li Ke saw the scroll, he was overwhelmed with emotions and couldn't help but sigh.
Elder Su Ma obviously felt that he did not have much time left, and the future of the Wind Control Sword Technique was also quite worrying, otherwise he would not have given this scroll to someone like him who had no magical abilities, and asked him to live in seclusion here.
can only say……
"Yasuo, please be more careful."
With a light sigh, Li Ke put himself in Elder Su Ma's shoes and thought, if he were Elder Su Ma, facing the current situation of his own sect, he probably wouldn't have any good solution.
Yongen, whose strength can only be considered decent, is too persistent and rigid, and lacks flexibility.
Yasuo, a man of outstanding strength and talent, is simply unable to take on major responsibilities due to his personality.
As for myself, although I work very hard and my character and personality cannot be said to be absolutely superior, I am mature in thinking, understand the rules and know how to adapt.
But, without strength and talent
This situation is mind-boggling.
In the future world of great strife, the whole family will be wiped out.
In this case, Su Ma asked him to come here completely to entrust his son to his care, as he didn't want the last inheritance of the Yufeng swordsmanship to disappear.
In fact, if I didn't know the plot and wanted to change it, Elder Suma's arrangement would really be the best arrangement.
Yasuo left Ionia, and Yongen became a half-human, half-ghost being. With the scroll of true teachings in his hand, as long as he was not too stupid, he would be able to pass on the Wind Control Swordsmanship.
So, after Shen left, Li Ke began to study the scroll by combining the secret words taught by Elder Su Ma in daily life with the nouns and titles unique to their school.
"Children and stuff..."
Ali shyly grabbed the corner of her simple clothes. When she thought about the fact that she and Li Ke would have a child, she blushed and was speechless.
After she lived with Li Ke, she changed out of her gorgeous silk clothes and wore simple clothes like the peasant women in the village. Although Li Ke wanted her not to do so, after all, he didn't need the money. But seeing Ali happily learning how to cook and raise chickens from the peasant women and trying to be an ordinary wife, he smiled knowingly and decided to live like this for a while.
"Yes, child, after all, neither you nor I like fish intestines and goat intestines..."
Li Ke nodded and brought up a topic that made Ali's head smoke.
The contraceptive measures in Ionia are quite primitive, either fish intestines or sheep intestines. Of course, those who have learned enough can also use magic to make that thing come out, or use the seedlings of a plant called a 'bag'.
This plant is naturally shaped like a bag, which contains a lot of nectar and attracts butterflies and mosquitoes to pollinate.
As long as you pick it before it withers, you will get a bag with a linen-like texture.
When this plant is picked when it is still young, it will become a thin, tough, and transparent long bag, but it will constantly ooze out mucus.
This mucus is very sticky. Although it has no other side effects, if it is not cleaned properly, the parts of the body that come into contact with it will be sticky for several days and will even have a bad smell over time.
Fish intestines and sheep intestines are similar, both have a peculiar smell and are very unpleasant.
Li Ke and Ali don't like either of them, so Li Ke has already thought about what to name his and Ali's future child.
After all, he was full of energy from practicing martial arts during the day, and Ali was a beautiful girl who could do whatever he wanted...
But at this point, he couldn't help but think of a question.
There is no reproductive isolation between the Vastayans and Ionians, but what about the people of Earth and this world?
Li Ke thinks this issue is crucial.
After eating the watermelon, Ahri went back to work, doing things like boiling water for a bath. Li Ke chopped the firewood when he practiced sword in the morning, and Li Qing and Udyr who lived in the villa also helped.
"Do you want to start a simulation now? The ability to manipulate vitality seems to be very suitable for Arad's Berserker, so do you want me to learn some Berserker moves? And by the way, see if I can master magic in another world and thus master wind-controlling swordsmanship?"
Looking at Ali's graceful back, Li Ke, who was immersed in the gentleness of her body, thought of this question.
There was no way. Without magic, watching the Wind Control Sword Technique was like scratching an itch through a shoe. He couldn't get the key points at all. He saw some things but didn't understand them at all.
However, just as he was thinking, there was a commotion at the door. He looked up and found that a little familiar person appeared outside his courtyard and was being besieged by the children of the village.
"orphan!"
"No guy my dad wants!"
An ugly scolding sounded, and if he remembered correctly, the child being scolded...
"Seti?"
He had just thought of the child's name when he heard something rather unpleasant.
"You Vastaya bastard whose mother has to sell to feed you! Do you know how much your mother makes in one night?!"
Li Ke opened his eyes wide and stood up. As expected, Seti, who had been responding silently, suddenly emitted a golden light, and then rushed towards the children with a roar!
"I am going to kill you!"
