Myriad Paths

Li Qi sat with the demon dragon 'Dragon Fifteen' and Asura who could be called 'Ada'.

Potisha, who had come to greet Li Qi before, was pouring water for Li Qi, but Li Qi didn't even look at it.

The four of them sat facing the sea, with waves rippling in the water, clear water and trees, fish, birds, and algae. The combination of the transparent water surface and the transparent open space was like flying in the air, and the scenery was extremely elegant.

Blue water and clear waves, light clouds and mist, frost soaked in ice, beautiful scenery on a good day, bright and clear light connecting the inside and outside, the clear light seems to shine on the Crystal Palace. If Li Qi didn't know that the guys in front of him were demon dragons and asuras, Li Qi would have thought that they were from Penglai. People.

However, I think it was decorated like this to make Li Qi like it.

Hearing what Long Shiwu said, Li Qi naturally showed a natural smile: "Senior is right, ordinary people can't trust such a huge sum of money in a life-long friendship. If you and I want to hand over, then naturally we need to It takes a lot of trust.”

This can be regarded as doing Tai Chi.

Long Shiwu told Li Qi that the fact that they were doing this business represented a good relationship, so he wanted to use this to get closer to each other through words.

However, Li Qi's answer was: "Indeed, you are right, so we need to have a more in-depth chat. Let me confirm whether you are so close."

When you say this, it's actually not that 'close'.

Sure enough, as Li Qi said these words, Long Shiwu's expression remained unchanged, but the asura girl Potisa next to him suddenly stiffened.

The male Asura 'Ada' looked slightly angry and glared over.

Potisha trembled slightly.

The Asura clan itself is irritable and aggressive, but don't really think that they are a bunch of good people. They are just not as pure as the bad ones in the hell realm.

Their irritability and aggressiveness are more about their personality, and their attitude towards bad things themselves is basically indifferent. They won't feel any burden from doing evil, but they won't be happy, and they won't deliberately do bad things.

Therefore, among the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Asura Path is classified into the "Three Good Paths".

For this classification, we mainly look at ‘bad karma’.

Among the three evil realms, the hell realm is the one who creates the ten upper-grade evil deeds, the hungry ghost realm is the one who perpetrates the ten lower-grade evil deeds, and the animal realm is the one who perpetrates the ten lower-grade evil deeds.

The so-called top ten evils are those who plan and execute, commit greed, anger, evil desires, sexual immorality and other great evils, and have no regrets before and after the evildoing process.

Asuras cannot meet this requirement, so they are assigned to the three virtuous paths.

Li Qi also noticed the other party's anger, but he also realized that this anger was not directed at him, but at the Asura woman next to him.

Hmm... In other words, this woman was sent here to increase her favorability from the beginning.

However, the other party obviously made a wrong calculation. They didn't expect that Li Qi never looked at this woman from the beginning to the end. After all, he cared more about the hell realm and those anecdotes.

So, at this time, Li Qi, who realized this, took a step back, coughed twice, and then said to Long Shiwu: "Ahem, but a good relationship is indeed very important. Women are really insignificant here. This has nothing to do with gender itself, it’s just that anything that exists as a ‘plaything’ should not stand in front of such a friendship.”

"So, I prefer that the person sitting here is a friend instead of a 'plaything'. This will appear more sincere, right?" Li Qi said to Long Shiwu.

The meaning of this statement is also very clear.

Don't do this nonsense, it won't do any good to the relationship. Where is my brother Li Weng?

Long Shiwu's tone was relaxed and he said nonchalantly: "Haha, so that's it. I was the one who was rude. Please step back and bring Mr. Li's friends."

Potisha quickly stood up and left, but Li Qi felt another wave of anger.

Hmm...it seems to be emanating from Botisha, she must be angry with herself.

Damn it, does Asura get angry every day when nothing happens?

But Li Qi didn't care about those things. He just said: "Senior Long Shiwu, let's talk about business, about the ingredients I want..."

"Of course, the ingredients have been prepared, but you also know that they are some secret and precious things, and they are likely to offend some forces, so it is not easy to show them to the public. If you want to inspect the goods, you can temporarily inspect some of them. The other part needs to be discussed after it is finalized," Long Shiwu said.

"I understand, but those who are not so sensitive..." Li Qi suggested.

"Bring it up." Long Shiwu said to Ada.

This male asura seemed to follow Long Shiwu's lead and left immediately after hearing this.

Then Long Shiwu looked at Li Qi and said apologetically: "I'm afraid it will take a quarter of an hour. Master, wait a moment."

"It doesn't matter." Li Qi smiled and said he didn't mind.

At this time, Long Shiwu started talking to Li Qi: "I don't think the young master is very nervous. How do you manage to keep a calm mind while holding a huge sum of money?"

"What is there to be nervous about? It's not my money. If you want to eat this money, someone will naturally come to settle the score with you. Then I just need to report it truthfully." Li Qi said.

If it was because Li Qi didn't know the person well or had poor eyesight that the goods were wrong, Li Qi might blame himself for this, but it could only be regarded as self-blame. In fact, he would not bear any responsibility in the first place. , Bohaiguo will probably not blame him, at most he will not entrust important matters to Li Qi again in the future.

As for robbery, or some kind of drama of eating goods, this kind of thing can't be blamed on him at all.

If the people in front of me dare to do this, Bohaiguo will talk to them.

So in Li Qi's opinion, there was no need for him to worry at all.

"It's a bad thing to say after eating this money. We are all serious businessmen. The Paoqiu Association that I belong to is a well-known large chamber of commerce near Dushuo Mountain. If you don't believe me, you can ask this person. It's a bit bad," Long Shiwu said.

Li Qi was stunned when he heard what he said.

Then he looked again, only to find that Li Weng had unknowingly sat where Potisha was before.

Such a strange appearance, even Zhen Zhiyun didn't notice it!

Let alone Li Qi, Li Weng himself looked confused.

"Wait...Zhu Ren, how could you, no...how could I!? Wasn't I still in the car just now?" Li Weng stood up suddenly, shocked.

He himself didn't know how the scene around him had changed.

Li Qi was also quite surprised. He had seen many magical spells, and he was used to seeing space transformations or transitions between caves and heavens.

For example, in the classrooms of Chang'an Taixue, you will enter a different cave after entering each building, and you can also change the scene with each step.

But those, without exception, had 'signs'. Li Qi could see the transformations and fluctuations in this space, and the connections between the nested spaces one after another had clear and distinct characteristics.

But now, the information flow field of view shows that there is no additional information at all, and the real rhyme has not changed at all, which means that the space itself has not actually changed at all.

How did that person appear out of thin air?

Li Qi glanced at Long Shishi. The demonic dragon was still sitting on the chair with its body coiled up, holding a cup of tea in its claws. The old god was there and seemed to have no intention of explaining to Li Qi.

"Calm down and sit down." Li Qi put a hand on Li Weng's shoulder and asked him to sit down.

Li Weng also immediately realized his gaffe, and then nodded to Li Qi, and then sat down, but he still seemed a little embarrassed.

There is no way to feel at ease. When the opponent performs a technique, he can see and feel the fluctuations. Even if he cannot understand it, he cannot actually deal with it. After all, he can comfort himself by saying that this is a technique that he does not understand.

But this kind of thing happens without any warning, which is very scary for practitioners.

What is beyond cognition is the most terrifying.

Li Qi also frowned slightly, but he still said to Li Weng first: "Thank you Li Weng for introducing me to the Paoqiu Association, but I don't know much about this chamber of commerce yet, so I would like to ask Li Weng to clear up my doubts."

"That's how it should be. I originally wanted to go directly to Zhu Ren and tell you the matter. Unfortunately, there are experts in the Paoqiu Association who are faster, so they will inform Zhu Ren. I am still in the car, anxious. How can I contact you?" Li Weng said immediately.

Li Qi nodded slightly when he heard this.

Li Weng's meaning was obvious. The Paoqiu Club didn't want Li Weng to show up before, so they took Potisha to pick up Li Qi.

Of course Li Weng wouldn't say anything about it, but he had already given Li Qi enough hints, "I'm anxious to contact you", which in itself showed that the Paoqiu Club did not treat Li Weng as a guest.

If Li Qi hadn't proactively and forcefully asked Long Shiwu to drive Potisha away and invite Li Weng back, I'm afraid Li Weng would not have appeared at the negotiation site.

Why would Paoqiu do this?

Moreover, just after Li Weng arrived, the method Paoqiu would use was obviously similar to a show of force. It was the kind of method that suddenly shows you a hand and makes you feel that you are ignorant, and then raises vigilance and awe in your heart. .

And it was very useful, because Li Qi really didn't understand how the other party did it, so this deterrence was quite successful.

"Wish people, cannons and Qiu will meet. It is taken from the meaning of broken dragons and dragons. There is a pool in the East China Sea called Longqiu. There are three deep caves next to the lake. The water comes out of the caves, two of them are waterfalls. There is a hole in the cave with countless stone pillars. From top to bottom, and from bottom to top, there are five or six small waterfalls, which are connected with the water on the peak to form a large water curtain. A small spring spurts out from the waist, so it is called ambergris. So everyone thinks this is the remains of the Dragon Lord."

"This Paoqiu Association is the Cannon-Smashing Dragon Qiu. In the past, they directly smashed the Dragon Qiu water and took out the Dragon Lord's dragon saliva. It can be said to be the most powerful chamber of commerce nearby, and it is also my first choice to recommend to people. When Zhu Ren wants to do business, they are the first people I think of!" Li Weng, while telling Li Qi the deeds and details of Paoqiu Hui, praised Paoqiu Hui in a boastful tone.

He was very good at being a good person. He firmly believed that he was the one brought by Li Qi, but he also refused to offend the Paoqiu Society, because he also realized that the Paoqiu Society seemed to have some objections to Li Qi, and they all used demonstrations. .

Maybe it was because Li Qifei wanted to pull him over?

After all, Li Weng felt that his identity was a shady one, and Li Qi forced him to come over. In addition to worrying about his own safety, he probably also had the intention of letting a shady man come to witness the business.

In this way, Paoqiu would naturally feel that he was not trusted, so he made a brief statement and used this method to express his strength to Li Qi. He had magical means that could make the evil spirits invisible and invisible.

This is the result that Li Weng himself saw.

With such a hint, after Li Qi listened to Li Weng's explanation and reminder, he thought about it and figured it out.

He suddenly realized that it was his actions that irritated the Paoqiu Society, but he really didn't think so much. He just wanted to find Li Weng at the beginning. After all, he had no interest in Asura Jurchen.

But after realizing this, Li Qi felt a little bored.

These people seemed to think that this matter was a big deal. He was playing some exciting negotiation game with them. He had to test the bottom line little by little. Maybe there were still a lot of people investigating his details behind his back to confirm his whereabouts in the East China Sea.

However, the art of divination was basically useless to him. The great witch Yun Fang personally took action to cover up the secrets, and his background was strange, so there should be no problem.

Thinking of this, Li Qi just felt bored.

So, he took out a mustard bag from his waist, threw it forward, and gently hit it on the table.

Facing Li Qi's behavior, Long Shiwu seemed a little confused. He didn't rush to take the mustard bag, but looked at Li Qi: "Sir, this expression, this action, I wonder...?"

"Nothing special, I just feel tired, send me the things on the list, you take the things in the mustard bag, I'm a little tired, finish it quickly." Li Qi waved his hand and said casually.

This attitude made Long Shiwu feel a little at a loss.

In his understanding, doing business is to test each other, find out the details of each other, and strive for the maximum profit before the other party's bottom line, just like what he is doing now.

And Li Qi seemed to be tired of this. After chatting with him for a few words, he thought that the other party wanted to use the Yincha to control him, but he never thought that Li Qi directly paid the payment for the goods.

"It should be that the payment for the goods is not enough, he wants to bluff." Long Shiwu guessed in his heart.

It must be like this, so he smiled and picked up the mustard bag: "Then I will test it and see what you are doing."

He said this to pave the way for forcing Li Qi to increase the price later. If I compliment you as a young master, you can't be too generous, right?

Then, he opened the mustard bag.

Hearing a plop, his heart beat faster.

Damn! So much money!

Cooking Sea Pot felt that it might not be easy for Li Qi to negotiate business with him when he was out, so he prepared a little more funds for Li Qi to prevent him from spending more money when he ran away because of his low cultivation. If Li Qi had to pay out of his own pocket, he would feel bad.

When Long Shiwu saw these "extra" things, he was immediately frightened.

He stared at Li Qi blankly...

No wonder this young master said he was tired.
