Chapter 85: The Beast Walker
Li Qing, a disciple of Shuoji Temple, at least that's what Li Ke heard.
To be precise, he was chosen by the spirit of the dragon. His story was widely spread in Ionia, because his greatest achievement in practicing martial arts in the Temple of Shoji was not that he was indeed chosen by the spirit of the dragon, but that he kicked a master into a cripple.
This incident caused a big stir at the time. Although the master said that he did not blame the other party, he was still exiled because of the bad influence and his own confession.
However, when Li Ke first knew the other party, it was actually because of his first version of the background story.
The other party's original background story was that he set himself on fire to protest something, and although he was rescued, he was blinded.
From that day on, Li Ke believed that the other party must be a ruthless person, so he paid attention to this person. However, the League of Legends had just been launched at that time, so he was more accustomed to playing Ice. It was a long time later when he really got the hang of playing Lee Sin.
After living in Ionia and hearing about the other party's deeds, he realized that this was not the case. However, Li Ke knew that the last news he had was that Li Qing went to Freljord, but unexpectedly, he came back.
Maybe even bring Udyr along.
interesting.
Li Ke was really easy to deal with. He didn't know what kind of situation could bring these two people together. He had never heard of any relationship between Udyr and Lee Sin.
He thought a lot, but Ali had never seen such a scene. She subconsciously grabbed Li Ke's clothes and wanted to hide behind Li Ke.
Of course, this has something to do with the powerful strength in the bodies of these two people. Li Ke may not be able to perceive it, but she can feel it clearly.
The one who looked blind had a fire dragon in his body, and the one who looked like a savage had hundreds of wild beasts. If she hadn't known that Li Ke was the guardian here, she wouldn't have taken action just now.
Li Ke patted her hands to comfort her and stood in front of Ali.
"Let's put aside the farm work for now. You should be Li Qing from Shuoji Temple, right? What's going on with you? Can you explain it a little bit?"
He remembered that Udyr could transform, but what was this madman-like state like? And what about the soul of a yellow cow?
Li Qing was stunned for a moment. He hadn't heard anyone call him 'Li Qing of Shuoji Temple' for a long time. He looked at Li Ke gratefully and bowed again.
"I am indeed Lee Sin of the Shoji Monastery. As for my friend's situation , it's a long story. He is a rare psychic in the Freljord. He can communicate with the spirits of any animal. But because of this, his will is also very easily taken over by animals."
Udyr, who looked like a savage, nodded and looked at Li Ke with emotion.
"Yes...I"
But at this moment, a horse carriage passed by them. Even Li Ke, who had never raised a horse, could see that the horse pulling the carriage was very hungry.
"I'm so hungry. When can I eat? I really want to eat oatmeal. I want oatmeal, I want oatmeal... oatmeal, oatmeal..."
This sentence suddenly appeared in Udyr's mind, his eyes rolled up immediately, and the words he had originally opened his mouth changed direction.
"... Oats! No! No oats! No oats! Oats!"
He covered his head, as if trying to drive something out, while Li Qing on the side took this opportunity to add some explanation.
"That's right. If there is an animal around him that is psychic enough and has a strong will, his spirit will be affected by the animal, communicating with the animal's spirit uncontrollably and merging with it for a short period of time. The reason why he ate soybeans and said he wanted to eat chicks just now was because of similar reasons."
Li Qing looked at the yellow cow beside the farmer and bowed to the farmer who was looking at them warily.
"I'm sorry, ma'am. My friend and I disturbed you. We can compensate you with our labor, but you must also be careful that your cattle will steal your chickens. Perhaps you can give it some nutritional supplements."
The peasant woman did not answer Li Qing's question, and Li Qing understood. She had taken them in with good intentions, but they had fought in her yard. Such guests were definitely not welcome.
He wanted to explain more, but at this moment, Udyr roared.
“No oats!!!”
After shouting this, Udyr panted, stood up again, and continued speaking to Li Ke.
"You see, that's it. Sometimes, I feel that it would be easier if I died. If it weren't for this lady just now, I'm afraid I would have to fight with Li Qing for a long time."
Panting, Udyr gave a somewhat forced smile. Li Ke looked at him, then at Li Qing who was taking the gift from the peasant woman, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"It seems like you guys really haven't had an easy life."
In this situation, it is simply wishful thinking to find a farmer's house where they can stay overnight, and small families cannot afford such trouble.
"This is the punishment I must bear, and for Udyr, this is his step to resist fate. Neither he nor I will stop."
After Li Qing handed Wu Dier a gift, he untied the red cloth on his eyes under Li Ke's sharp gaze, revealing a pair of shining big eyes, and began to look at the map on it. Wu Dier took out a steamed bun from his package and started to eat it.
"I'm starving! I have to replenish my food every time. It's so great to be able to live in Ionia!"
“…”
Aren't you blind?
Li Ke was silent for a while, then asked.
"Your eyes are alright?"
Li Qing nodded and explained to Li Ke while looking at the map.
"Of course. As for this, I am practicing how to deal with enemies in the dark. So far, the practice is very effective, but I am still far from being able to observe everything with my eyes closed. So when I look at the map, I have to take off my blindfold."
Li Ke glanced at Udyr.
"Then why don't you let Mr. Udyr look at the map?"
Li Qing raised his head when he heard that. There was a hint of confusion in his bright eyes for a moment, as if he was wondering why Li Ke asked such a question. Then he subconsciously looked at Udyr who was munching on a steamed bun beside him.
"Hmm? You guys want some too?"
Udyr, who was halfway through his meal, was stunned for a moment. Seeing that two people were looking at him, he generously took out four steamed buns from his pocket.
But after he took it out, he took a look at the remaining buns in his package and the number of people present. He happily put one back and handed the three buns to the three people.
"Here! But I don't have much left. I 'm going to save the rest for the journey!"
So, Li Qing turned his head, was silent for a while, carefully considered his words, and then began to explain to Li Ke.
"He can't read."
Well, you can tell at a glance that he is illiterate.
Li Ke nodded in agreement.
However, Udyr spoke again.
"Hmm? You guys don't want to eat? If you don't, I'll eat them all! We can't be out of energy for the journey later! Let me tell you, Ionia is great. Not only does it not snow, but the bread is also super delicious! It's just that it's not chewy and small in size. I can eat one and a half in one bite!"
He looked puzzled, but his mouth did not stop, and he kept stuffing the buns in. This look, coupled with the other person's heartless smile of enjoyment, looked so... well, honest.
Ahri took a steamed bun out of kindness, and then...
Then she saw a tooth mark on it.
Udyr's tooth marks.
