Li Qing nodded slightly and said: "My experience in the county government has ended. In half a month, the sect will send new disciples."
It was impossible for a disciple of the Fu Lu Sect to stay in the local government forever. Li Mu had known that this day would come, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Li Qing looked at him and said, "After I leave, you have to be careful by yourself."
After Li Mu came back to his senses, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, boss, I'm not the same person anymore."
Li Qing was silent for a moment and said: "In the past few months, you have become completely different from before. Sometimes I also wonder if there is another soul in your body."
Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The former Li Mu is indeed dead. The person standing in front of you now is the reborn Li Mu. If Master Qianhuan hadn't made me die once, maybe I wouldn't have had these changes."
.”
"You are more responsible and righteous now. You are indeed much better than you were before." Li Qing was silent for a while, looked at him again, and asked, "Will you go to the county government?"
A quarter of an hour ago, Li Mu had extremely good reasons for not going to the county government office.
At this moment, his reasons don't seem so sufficient.
Li Mu thought for a while, nodded and said: "Yes, there are more opportunities there after all. I want to gather the other two souls as soon as possible."
"That's fine." Li Qing looked at him and warned: "The county town is not as good as the county town. The cases there will be more difficult and the criminals encountered will be more powerful. You must be careful..."
…
This half month has been the fastest half month that Li Mu has passed since he came to this world.
In the past few months, there were constant murder cases in the county, but recently there were no even minor thefts. The fifteen days passed in such a calm manner.
Li Mu came to the check-in room early in the morning and saw Zhang Shan and Li Si standing at the door with their ears pressed to the door, sneaking around and not knowing what they were doing.
He walked over and was about to ask when Zhang Shan suddenly made a silent gesture to him and pointed into the duty room without making any sound.
Li Mu walked slowly to them, not close to the door. As a practitioner, the five senses will be greatly improved, and he has also begun to practice the six senses. Standing here, he can clearly hear the conversation in the check-in room.
.
In the room, Li Qing stood up, looked at Han Zhe, and asked, "What's wrong with Capt. Han?"
Han Zhe smiled bitterly and said, "Junior sister Li, even if we are not from the same lineage, we are still from the same sect. It shouldn't be too much for you to call me senior brother, right?"
Li Qing was silent for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Han, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Han Zhe asked: "Junior sister Li has stayed in the soul refining and soul condensation realms for a long time in the past few years. She must be building a solid foundation. She wants to wait until she gathers her soul to hit the magical power realm in the shortest possible time, right?"
Li Qing nodded and did not deny it.
"So, after Junior Sister Li returns to the mountain, she should go into seclusion and practice." Han Zhe took a deep breath and suddenly said: "There is something that I have wanted to say to Junior Sister Li for a long time. If I don't say it now, I'm afraid that after returning to the mountain gate,
, there is even less chance.”
He looked into Li Qing's eyes and plucked up the courage to speak: "Junior sister Li, I have actually liked you for a long time. Are you willing to become a monk couple with me..."
Li Qing shook his head without hesitation and said, "Sorry, Senior Brother Han."
Han Zhe's face turned pale, then he gritted his teeth and asked, "Is it because of Li Mu? You like Li Mu, right?"
Li Qing shook his head and said, "I only have cultivation in my heart."
Not long after, Han Zhe walked out of the check-in room in despair, glanced at Li Mu, and left.
Zhang Shan patted Li Mu's shoulder and sighed softly.
Li Mu walked into the duty room and saw that Li Qing had already packed a baggage, and asked, "Boss, are you leaving today?"
"I'll leave in a moment." Li Qing nodded and said, "You don't have to call me boss anymore..."
Li Mu smiled and said, "I'm used to it, and I can't change it for a while."
He walked to Li Qing and suddenly said: "Actually, I also have something that I have wanted to say to the boss for a long time."
A flash of panic flashed deep in Li Qing's eyes, and he asked calmly: "What are you talking about?"
Li Mudao: "Thank you."
Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Thank me for what?"
Li Mudao: "Thank you, boss, for teaching me how to practice. During this period, you cared about me, protected me, gave me a white gift, and gathered courage for me..."
"I said, you are my subordinate." Li Qing said, "If you have your own subordinates in the future, you will also be responsible for them."
"I will." Li Mu smiled and said, "I'm going out first, and I'll see you off when you leave."
Li Qing looked at his back as he walked out, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face. He lowered his head and looked at the Qinghong in his hand, his eyes gradually becoming firm again.
When Li Mu walked out of the check-in room, Han Zhe stood in the courtyard and said to him: "I have to go back to the sect today. I don't know if we will have the chance to meet again in the future."
Although Li Mu and Han Zhe didn't like each other very much, they were comrades who had fought together many times. Li Mu lightly punched him on the shoulder and said, "Take care."
Han Zhe sighed and said, "Although I lost, you didn't win either."
Li Mu shook his head and said, "I'm not betting anything with you."
Han Zhe looked at him and said, "We may not see each other again in the future. Let's go out for a drink?"
After all, they had experienced life and death together, and were about to part ways, and might not have the chance to see each other again. Han Zhe invited guests to the best restaurant in Yangqiu County, and Li Mu agreed without much hesitation.
Zhang Shan never misses such an occasion. After all, it can save him a meal, so he drags Li Si over to have a meal with him.
Han Zhe didn't say anything about this. After two glasses of wine, he felt a little dizzy. He gave Li Si a thumbs up and said, "I don't admire anyone else in this yamen, but I admire the most."
It’s you, the girl from the brothel, who can sleep with whomever you want without paying..."
His cultivation level was not low, but his drinking capacity was average. After drinking two glasses, he started chattering non-stop.
"Actually, when I was in the sect, I noticed Junior Sister Li very early..."
"She is the one from their lineage who practices the hardest and most seriously, even more seriously than Senior Brother Qin..."
"I should have known that she only has cultivation in her heart. If I lose, you, Li Mu, won't win either, haha..."
After a few glasses of wine, Han Zhe lay on the table and fell unconscious.
Zhang Shan punched Li Mu with his arm and said, "The boss is leaving. You really don't want to express your feelings to her before she leaves. Even Han Zhe..."
"Stop coming up with blind ideas." Li Si stuffed a chicken leg into his mouth, blocked his mouth, and said, "Don't you understand the boss? Since the boss decided to leave, what will Li Mu do?
It’s useless to say anything.”
Li Mu smiled, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
After being together for so long, he understands Li Qing's character better than anyone else.
If he is really like Han Zhe, it will only make a good farewell become less like a farewell.
He appreciates and is grateful for Li Qing's feelings, but if it is to say that it is a love or affection between a man and a woman, I am afraid it has not reached that level.
If the two of them had been together longer, they might have broken through that level of relationship, but unfortunately there was no chance.
Li Si took a sip of wine and sighed: "What a pity, what a pity..."
Han Zhe was drunk, and Li Si and Zhang Shan helped him to the Yamen. Li Mu returned home and found Wanwan holding Xiaobai on the swing in the yard.
Friendship between girls always comes very quickly, even if one is a human and the other is a fox, as long as it is a female fox.
Liu Hanyan was at the shop and did not come back. Li Mu cooked two bowls of noodles for them. Xiaobai had not transformed and could not use chopsticks. Wanwan took one bite by herself and fed it another bite...
Seeing them getting along so harmoniously, Li Mu felt relieved.
He was at the county government office during the day, and Liu Hanyan was at the shop. In the past, Wanwan was alone at home, but now there is a little talking fox, one person and one animal, so they can keep each other company.
The county government, Li Si and Zhang Shan helped Han Zhe back to his place and returned to the duty room.
Li Qing looked at them and said: "It's best not to drink during the office hours from now on. The new arrester may be harsher on you than me."
Zhang Shan quickly said: "Just this time, just this time."
Li Si suddenly looked at Li Qing and asked, "Has the boss really thought about it?"
Li Qing asked: "What are you thinking about?"
Li Si said: "Which one is more important, practice or emotion?"
Zhang Shan looked at Li Si in confusion and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Li Si shook his head and sighed: "Emotionally, it is always easier to take a step back than to take a step forward. If you take a step back now, if you regret it in the future, you will have to take more than one step forward. When you regret it, you will have to take one step forward.
Maybe, someone has already walked in front of you..."
Li Qing held the Qinghong Sword tightly, her knuckles turning slightly white from the exertion. Pictures of what the two of them had experienced in the past few months flashed through her mind. Finally, she took a deep breath and her eyes returned to calmness.
In this calmness, there is a trace of determination, a trace of pain, and a trace of hatred hidden in the deepest place that no one has ever discovered...
She lowered her head and said silently in her heart: "Wait for me..."
…
At the gate of the county government office, Magistrate Zhang personally escorted Li Qing and Han Zhe out of the county government office.
He bowed to the two of them and said: "Li Captou and Han Captou, I represent the county government and the people of Yangqiu County. I would like to thank you two for your contributions to Yangqiu County these days. I hope you will
You two will practice well in the future..."
Han Zhe returned the gift with a cupped hand: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."
Li Mu and Zhang Shan Li Si stood together, smiled at Li Qing and said: "Goodbye, boss."
Li Qing's eyes swept across them, finally stopping on Li Mu's face, and said: "Goodbye."
The two figures gradually disappeared from Li Mu's sight, and everyone had dispersed. Zhang Shan patted Li Mu on the shoulder and said, "Go back..."
Li Si walked up to Li Mu and comforted: "Boss and we are not from the same world. Forget about her. In fact, Miss Liu is not bad. She is more suitable for you than Boss. But if it doesn't work, there is that little girl...
…”
Liu Hanyan is good at halls and kitchens, can sing and dance well, has many talents, and is close to everyone. Compared with Li Qing's fairy spirit, he has more of the fireworks of the world.
But she has no intention of getting married in this life.
When Li Mu came home from the office, she had already prepared the meal and used a pile of books to raise Xiaobai's chair so that he could lie down on the chair and eat with them.
After having dinner together for so long, he and Liu Hanyan had a tacit understanding.
If Li Mu was cooking, she would be the one to clean the pots and wash the dishes; if she was cooking, it would be Li Mu who would be the one to wash the pots and wash the dishes.
Li Mu moved the dishes to the kitchen, and Liu Hanyan followed him, stood at the door of the kitchen, and asked: "You were silent while eating, and you didn't even take a few bites of the meal. Are you worried?"
Li Mu said: "The boss is gone."
Liu Hanyan said unexpectedly: "Captain Li is gone, where are he going?"
"Go back to the sect."
"still coming back?"
"Not coming back."
…
Liu Hanyan was startled, then walked into the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves, and said, "How about I wash it, and you go and rest..."
Li Mu shook his head: "It's okay."
Liu Hanyan put down his sleeves, thought for a moment, looked at Li Mu again, and said, "Then do you want me to drink with you?"
