Chapter 15 Three Treasures

Someone called him from behind, Li Qi immediately turned around and looked at that person.

Turning his head, he found that it was a traveling merchant.

However, the backpack of this traveling merchant was different from the two traveling merchant groups around him. It looked like he was traveling alone like himself.

This was a bit strange.

In theory, no one in this world would travel alone.

After all, as I said before, this world is very dangerous.

But there are some exceptions, such as Li Qi who kills people or has to leave his hometown for some reason.

But Li Qi has never heard that a traveling merchant would travel alone.

Is he not afraid of death?

"That... this big brother." The traveling merchant came over and sat next to Li Qi.

Li Qi was a little wary, but he didn't drive him away. He just looked at him: "Little brother, what's the matter?"

"Oh, that's it, I saw that you were traveling alone, so... I came over to say hello." The traveling merchant looked a little nervous, but still said so.

"So, I think, since we are both traveling alone, why not find a companion so that we can take care of each other on the road." said the young merchant.

"Traveling together? Where are you going?" Li Qi asked, while also considering the other person's body.

It is very dangerous to travel alone. It is indeed a good thing to have a companion, but it is always right to be cautious.

"I am going to Bi County, what about you, brother? I see you are coming from that direction. There is only one road here, and there is no fork in the road. We should be able to go together before reaching Feng County. It is at least fifty miles from here to the populated area, and we can also follow the road for another fifty miles." said the merchant.

"Oh, by the way, what is your name, brother? My surname is Du, you can just call me Adu." Adu said so, and then he put his snacks and tea on the table, put down the backpack covered with leather, and sat down.

"My name is Li Qi." Li Qi did not hide his name, but he looked at Adu and responded: "From what you said, you are very familiar with this road. If you are so familiar with it, why do you want to walk with me?"

Adu smiled bitterly: "I want to travel with you because I am familiar with it. To be honest, this road is not very peaceful. Look at the merchants around, which one does not set out with more than ten people?"

"If there is no other way, I am in urgent need of money, and I don't want to go out alone..." Adu said to Li Qi with a helpless expression.

This reason is very sufficient, but Li Qi still did not agree. He frowned slightly: "It's not very peaceful. What happened?"

Speaking of this, Adu came up and lowered his voice: "There are monsters on this road."

"Monsters? Then who dares to go there?" Li Qi was shocked.

Working at the dock, he heard the passing Chamber of Commerce and the Cao Gang talk about monsters more than once. In his impression, monsters are terrible beings that can easily kill more than a dozen people.

"It's just a rumor. It's not a real monster, but a beast that's about to become a spirit. This kind of beast that's about to become a spirit but hasn't yet become a spirit will be afraid of people as long as there are many people and the yang energy is strong. So it's safest to travel together. As for people like us... we can only make do with luck."

"Alas, if it weren't for the pressure of life, who would go out alone..." Ah Du sighed: "Monsters are scary, but there are many things scarier than monsters."

Li Qi deeply agrees with this.

The Lizhuang Gang wanted to kill him twice in one day. He finally fought back and had to flee to the ends of the earth to avoid the limelight. Even if there are monsters now, he has no intention of going back, which is enough to prove the correctness of this statement.

Seeing Li Qi nodded slightly, as if he agreed with what he said, Adu immediately followed him: "Besides, Brother Li, I don't just think it's dangerous for you to walk alone, I want to be your companion. You see, you have a strong blood and abundant yang energy. Those small beasts that have not become monsters are most afraid of people like you, and I have experience in business. If we work together, there will be no problem!" Adu is eloquent and speaks in a set way.

Li Qi looked at the other party and felt that he didn't seem to be lying.

Besides, even if the other party lied, as long as he didn't follow the other party's route and didn't let him lead the way, there should be no problem.

Moreover, if there is really a beast that is about to become a monster, it will be safer to have someone around. The other party is a traveling merchant who is familiar with the road and can walk in the wild. He has some skills and will not be unable to resist if he encounters a monster.

Besides, in the worst case, there is no need to race with the monster, as long as he runs faster than him.

Thinking of this, Li Qi nodded: "In that case, let's go the same way. I'm going to Fengxian, so I can just walk about 200 miles along the way."

"Hehe, that's enough, that's enough. Once we get to Fengxian, it will be very popular. There are also local witches and sorcerers, the government's demon-killing department, and the garrison commander. Few monsters dare to attack in such a place. The most dangerous part is the middle 200 miles. No one cares, and the road is bad, so it's easy for monsters to appear!" After getting a positive reply, Adu breathed a sigh of relief and started to joke.

"Brother Li, you look like you haven't been far away before, right? It's just right to drink tea now, so I'll tell you some interesting things on the road to relieve your boredom, how about that?" Adu sat down, looking very familiar.

However, Li Qi looked at the other party and immediately understood what Adu meant.

What Adu said was very polite and even flattering, but Li Qi was also a smart man. He knew that this traveler wanted to tell him some taboos and experiences on the road, but because he was not familiar with it, he was afraid that he would be unhappy, so he used This statement is just a replacement.

This man is really good at being a good person, no wonder he dares to find someone to accompany him in the wild.

"Okay, it's true that I don't go out often, tell me." Li Qi replied immediately, and at the same time, he placed his own plate of rice cakes with the other person's, indicating that they should eat together.

This counts as acceptance.

Adu was not polite, picked up a piece of rice cake, poured himself a cup of tea, and started talking.

"When you are doing business outside, you will encounter some mountain elves and wild monsters from time to time. It's just that this person is different from the mountain elves and wild monsters. Humans are the masters of all things. They are born with the three innate treasures. These things cannot be asked for. We are here, so ordinary monsters would not dare to touch us."

The Three Innate Treasures were the term again. Li Qi pricked up his ears and began to listen carefully.

"The three innate treasures are our gods, Qi, and essence. These are things that can only be possessed by innate spiritual wisdom. Monsters who have acquired spiritual wisdom cannot get it!"

Qi!

Li Qi heard another familiar term.
