Volume 1: A stone strikes a thousand waves, the world surrounds Li Daosheng Chapter 22: There are always people who are not suitable for this world
Even after Li Si walked a long way away, Bai Yaoer in his arms still hadn't come back to her senses.
She had never thought that this person who usually just lay there could be so powerful.
She originally thought that Li Si was just good at Qinggong. After all, in the rumors she heard, when people mentioned Li Si, they only talked about his Qinggong.
But it is obvious that the news from the underworld is always inaccurate.
As for the reason, Bai Yaoer didn't think about it further.
At this moment, she just felt exhausted all over, not only because of the anesthetic, but also because the series of twists and turns in this period of time had exhausted her mentally and physically.
Leaning her head weakly on Li Si's chest, Bai Yaoer felt her eyelids becoming heavier and heavier, and finally she slowly fell asleep.
Before she fell asleep, she heard a steady and powerful heartbeat. She didn't know why, but listening to this sound, she slept more soundly.
At noon, Li Si took Bai Yaoer to a dilapidated house on the outskirts of the city.
He couldn't go back to the inn, so he planned to stay here for one night.
Although it is a bit dilapidated, there are still houses and walls, which is pretty good.
Li Si has never been particular about where he lives. For him, having a roof to shelter from the rain and a wall to shelter from the wind is already a very good environment.
He lit a bonfire, caught some game and roasted it, picked some wild fruits, and ate them while waiting for the roasted food. He still seemed leisurely.
It was not until late in the evening that Bai Yaoer, who had been left in the corner by him, woke up.
The girl blinked, looked around blankly and asked.
"Where is this?"
"The suburbs of Hangzhou." Li Si answered while stirring the bonfire.
Is that so…
Bai Yaoer leaned against the wall. She still felt a little dizzy and was about to raise her hand to support herself when she felt a tearing pain in her arm.
"S..."
Unable to help but take a breath, Bai Yaoer looked at her arm, only to find that the wound was still exposed, with some blood.
She didn't feel any pain when she was injured before because of the anesthetic, but now the effect of the anesthetic has worn off and the pain is unbearable.
"I have used my inner strength to stop the bleeding for you." Li Si put down the wooden stick used to stir the fire, picked up a half-eaten fruit beside him, put it in his mouth, took a bite and said.
"But you have to bandage it yourself, so that you don't end up accusing me of taking advantage of your misfortune and ruining your name."
After saying this, Li Si raised his eyebrows, thinking that he had handled the situation appropriately.
He always believed that he knew how to avoid unnecessary troubles, just like the one he was facing right now.
Am I so unreasonable in your eyes?
Looking at Li Si's expression, Bai Yaoer couldn't help but feel suffocated again, and the gratitude that she had finally felt was instantly gone.
He glared at Li Si and stretched out his hand viciously.
"What?" Li Si asked, looking at her hand in confusion.
"Gauze." Bai Yaoer gritted her teeth and said, "How else can I bandage it?"
Oh, I forgot about this.
Li Si then remembered that he did not have any gauze to bandage the wound.
He looked around and finally set his sights on his coat.
Without thinking too much, he took off his coat and threw it to Bai Yaoer.
"You can use this first, I will buy you another one later."
He is not short of money now. Just this morning, he stole five silver ingots from the young man from the Tang Sect.
Bai Yaoer caught the coat thrown by Li Si. She didn't know what she was thinking about. Her face turned red, she pursed her lips, and tore the coat into strips while muttering.
She was mumbling something, but Li Si didn't listen carefully. It was probably just some swear words, and he was too lazy to care.
It was not until Bai Yaoer had bandaged his wound and put on his coat again that Li Si, who was trying to avoid suspicion, walked in from the door of the dilapidated house and sat back by the fire.
"Among those people today, I'm afraid some will not give up so easily. You should just follow me for the time being. When we get to a safe place, you can leave on your own."
Throwing another piece of wood into the campfire, Li Si began to speak.
The people he was talking about were naturally the ones who were chasing him.
At this time, Bai Yaoer had already entered the sight of those people. If she was allowed to leave alone at this time, the same thing that happened this morning would probably happen again.
So it’s better to let her follow me first, at least I can save her life.
Bai Yaoer didn't say anything, because she knew that this was probably the best solution for her right now.
On the contrary, she was a little surprised that Li Si was willing to take her with him.
"Thank you." Bai Yaoer sat in the corner with her legs hugged and said softly.
She couldn't even remember how many times she had said thank you to the person in front of her.
Unconsciously, she seemed to have really owed him a lot, but unfortunately she had no ability to repay him.
"Are you thinking that you have no way to repay this great kindness?" Not knowing whether he really saw through Bai Yaoer's thoughts, Li Si suddenly looked at her and said with a smile.
"Huh?" Bai Yaoer was stunned for a moment and looked up at Li Si.
After a while, he lowered his head and replied, "Yeah."
She really could never repay this kindness.
"Why don't you pledge yourself to me?" Li Si said with a smile, and then he squinted his eyes pretentiously.
Promise yourself to me.
In the corner, Bai Yaoer's body suddenly stiffened.
Then in the space of a breath, her face went from pale to completely red.
His eyes were in a panic, not knowing where to look, and even the tone of his voice rose a few octaves.
"You! You you you you, I I I I..."
"Hahahaha." Beside the campfire, Li Si couldn't help but laughed out loud.
Hearing the laughter, Bai Yaoer stood there in a daze. Then, her face turned even redder, but this time it was from anger.
Because she knew that she was being teased by Li Si again.
"Li Si! Are you a three-year-old child?"
"Hahahaha, okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Come over and eat something."
“No!”
"Seriously, don't starve yourself."
"I don't want to eat!"
In a small abandoned house on the outskirts of Hangzhou, fire flickered, the walls were drafty, but the laughter and noise from inside never stopped.
In fact, Li Si didn't mean to have fun with Baiyaoer.
He just didn't want her to feel like she owed him anything.
In his opinion, the people and affairs of the underworld, whether they are gratitude or resentment, are nothing more than momentary obsessions and should not be entangled too deeply.
The best solution to this grudge is probably to just laugh it off and forget about each other.
Because only in this way can this world seem simpler.
So he also hoped that Bai Yaoer could be like this, not think too much, so that he would not be entangled by this world in the future.
She is not suitable for this world, so it is better for her to leave early.
