Li Qiang looked at Xia Jin doubtfully, his clear eyes full of confusion.
From the time he was born until now, no one has cared about him. They are disgusted and afraid of his abilities that are different from ordinary people, and they are full of names such as monster and dead star.
Everyone in the house can bully him, even the lowly servants will not take him seriously.
Sometimes, he even forgets that he is the ninth young master of Lijia!
In this situation of being oppressed everywhere, Qu Linjie extended a helping hand to him and gave him medicine that he said could cure his 'strange disease'.
Make him feel that Qu Rongjie is a good person, at least he is the only one willing to help him!
But now, some people say that they have been cheated?
Li Qiang bit her lip tightly, her eyes half covered by her messy hair, making her face look particularly small.
"The medicine Qu Linjie gave you is poison! And you are not sick at all and do not need treatment!" Xia Jin said.
Li Qiang suddenly raised his head and looked at Xia Jin, "You don't need to worry about it!"
He reached out and grabbed the medicine bottle from Xia Jin's hand, and when his fingers touched Xia Jin's, a thin layer of white frost condensed on it.
Li Qiang looked at Xia Jin's hand, his pupils shrank, then he turned his head suddenly and ran out as if he was running away!
"Li Qiang!" Xia Jin chased after him.
"Wait for me!" Qi Tianxiao jumped onto the roof and took a shortcut to catch up.
Li Qiang left the city lord's palace and entered an alley. Qi Tianxiao jumped down from the roof and stood in front of him.
Xia Jin caught up and blocked him at another intersection.
"Li Qiang, calm down and listen to what I have to say!"
"You had ulterior motives in choosing me to learn about city gate repairs, and you had ulterior motives in asking me to take you to the mines to investigate the case. Do you think I will believe you?"
Li Qiang slowly retreated, his whole body falling into the shadows.
Xia Jin walked closer slowly, with a serious look on his face, "You can't take that medicine!"
Li Qiang turned over and jumped onto the roof. Xia Jin chased after him, grabbed his ankle and pulled him down hard.
Li Qiang fell to the ground, got up and looked at Xia Jin and Qi Tianxiao.
"If you come close to me again, I won't be polite!"
Xia Jin was furious, not because of Li Qiang's attitude towards him, but because he was deceived by Qu Rongjie without knowing it.
Perhaps it was because this body had also been deceived, so when he met Li Qiang who was also deceived, the remaining consciousness in his body began to influence Xia Jin invisibly.
Xia Jin desperately wanted to help him see the truth clearly!
This complex emotion, half good-hearted and half angry, mixed together made Xia Jin very irritable.
Faced with Li Qiang's impediment, Xia Jin walked over directly, the flame ignited in his hand, and his long hair was blown away by the heat wave. As the scorching flame approached, Li Qiang's pupils dilated and he raised his hand to block it.
The gauze in his hand was burned, and an icy coldness spread from his palm. The next moment, a blue light lit up, forming a semicircular ice shield around him to block Xia Jin's flames.
Xia Jin took a step back and looked at the ice shield that appeared out of thin air in front of her, and was surprised.
"Ice attribute superpower, and the attribute is very pure. You can develop it to this level without a master. You must be a genius!"
Xia Jin withdrew the flame, walked around behind the semicircular ice shield, and said with a smile: "You are not sick at all. The reason why your hands can freeze when touching objects is because you have not learned how to control them. You can worship me as your
Master, I’ll teach you how to control it!”
A ball of flame surged out of Xia Jin's palm, and the flame jumped in her hand as if it were alive.
"You can control your ice like this too!"
Li Qiang raised his eyes and looked at the flame in Xia Jin's hand, his clear eyes reflecting the light.
"Can I control it?"
"Of course!" Xia Jin withdrew the flame and looked at him with a smile.
"There are so many things you can do with your ice!" For example, make hail, iced drinks, iced wine! Ice cream is also good!
She must find a way to abduct this kid!
Xia Jin secretly made up her mind!
It’s a pity that such a good power is not used to make delicious food!
Xia Jin stretched out her hand, "Want to give it a try?"
Li Qiang sat on the ground and looked at Xia Jin standing in front of him. She had the sun behind her, her hair was fluttering, and her eyebrows were gentle, as if she was welcoming him out of the darkness like a ball of light.
He stared blankly at Xia Jin, at his own hands, and then at Xia Jin's hands. He wanted to have that kind of power that can control flames!
He grabbed Xia Jin's hand, stood up, and looked at Xia Jin. The young man's stubborn face was full of seriousness.
"I want to become your teacher!"
Xia Jin secretly thought, this kid is on the road!
"Now kneel down and kowtow to me three times, and you will be my disciple!"
Without thinking, Li Qiang knelt on his knees and kowtowed three times.
Xia Jin helped him up, "From now on, you are my disciple, Xia Jin. From now on, your affairs are my affairs! If someone bullies you, master will make the decision for you!"
Xia Jin is famous for protecting his shortcomings. Now that he accepts him, he will naturally take responsibility to the end!
"Now, you can hand the medicine bottle to me!" Xia Tian looked at him.
Li Qiang nodded and handed the medicine bottle in his hand to Xia Jin.
Xia Jin poured out a pill, walked to the ditch, and threw the pill in. Not long after the pill dissolved, all the mosquito larvae in the smelly ditch were floating on the water, motionless!
Li Qiang looked at this scene and knew that Xia Jin had not lied to him, this was indeed poison!
"Tell me, what's going on!" Xia Jin asked.
Since Li Qiang became a master, he naturally would not hide it anymore, so he nodded and said:
"I have been secretly saving money to heal my hands. I went to the capital to find a doctor for treatment, but when I went there I found that I didn't have enough money at all, so I started doing odd jobs to earn money. I also went to the food festival that day.
I was looking for a job and accidentally saw Zhang Heng. I followed him and listened to him tell me who he wanted to kill in the Food God Hall..."
"I was worried so I went over to take a look, and then I saw Qu Linjie and Dongmen Qian arguing. They were probably arguing about losing the competition and losing their reputation. I asked them to find a way to solve it. After hearing this, Qu Linjie became irritable.
Then kill him!"
"I was frightened and bumped into a door. I was discovered by Qu Linjie. He recognized my identity and said that he had a relationship with my father, so he would not kill me..."
"He asked me what I was doing here. I said I came to see the doctor for treatment. He gave me a bottle of medicine and said that as long as I kept this secret, he would continue to give me medicine to cure my disease."
"So, you just believed him?" Xia Jin asked.
Li Qiang nodded, "I know about my father's dealings with him. He is my friend, so I can trust him. I didn't expect that he gave me the medicine just to poison me and silence me!"
Xia Jin turned to look at the setting sun on the horizon, and said coldly: "Xiao Qiang, I will help you breathe out!"
