"I just want to open an extra room and have no other intentions."

"oh."

She was a little defensive at first, but after hearing Li Zhengyi's explanation again, the landlady couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her heart.

Sure enough, women are the most self-contradictory creatures.

"Here's the key to room five."

Now that business was done, everyone's attitude became normal. After getting the key, the two looked at each other again, and Li Zhengyi returned upstairs.

Their original room was number three, and now they have the key to room five. Logically speaking, there should be a room in between, but when they went upstairs, they found that there was only a wall between the two rooms.

There was no room No. 4 as he imagined, but these things were harmless. Li Zhengyi just took a look and opened the door of Room No. 5.

The space inside is slightly larger than next door, but the layout is different.

There is no table, only two wooden beds that are slightly smaller than those next door. One bed is enough for two people, and it is no problem for Li Zhengyi to sleep four people.

After going in and looking around, he found that the environment inside was quite clean. Then Li Zhengyi returned to the room next door and said directly in the eyes of several other people with doubts: "Pack your things and go next door. I won't leave tonight. Tomorrow Let’s go back together.”

"The room next door is bigger than this one, and it's enough for the four of you. Remember what I said, any action requires four people to work together."

"And if you want to go out, you must say hello to me. You are not allowed to go out and run around casually."

After hearing Li Zhengyi's words, they looked at each other in confusion.

"Okay, Captain."

"knew…"

Zhang Daniu was the first to answer, and then the others immediately followed suit, and then together they carried Liu Sangou to the next room.

Li Zhengyi followed up and took a look. There was indeed no problem sleeping the four of them in the room.

It just so happened that they had been busy for a day and were about to eat and drink enough. Xu Dabao and Xiao Chen lay on the bed to rest.

Needless to say, Zhang Daniu and Liu Sangou were assigned to another bed.

After taking a look, when the two of them were about to rest for a while, Li Zhengyi reminded them: "Eat something before going to bed. Daniel, go down and order one for the two of you. The beef stew here is good."

"Captain, no need."

"Yes, Captain..."

"Just go if you are told. It's just a meal, nothing more."

After he emphasized it again, Zhang Daniu went downstairs to order food.

"Since your foot is hurt, don't move around. Ask them to help you if you need anything."

After giving Liu Sangou instructions again, Li Zhengyi returned to his room next door.

It's not yet three or four o'clock in the afternoon, it's still early for the evening rest, but the lunch break time has passed.

After standing at the window and looking outside, I felt that there seemed to be nothing to do.

So Li Zhengyi, who was bored, also lay on the bed. He didn't think he could sleep now, but he just wanted to change to a more comfortable position and think about the problem.

But after a while, Li Zhengyi fell asleep unconsciously.

Because it was the market, the streets outside were still noisy at this time.

The room with the doors and windows closed was quite quiet, except for Li Zhengyi's long and rhythmic breathing, which kept rising and falling.

Occasionally someone passes by in the corridor outside, and they may notice that the door is closed and no one disturbs them.

Um?

Originally his expression was peaceful and quiet, but slowly his brows furrowed tightly.

Somehow, Li Zhengyi found himself suddenly appearing in a village.

And he was still running desperately. This village was built on a hillside along the mountain.

It is autumn now, the leaves are gradually turning yellow, and the grain in the fields has also turned golden, but no one is harvesting, leaving some small animals to destroy the crops.

The surroundings were quiet, except for Li Zhengyi's rapid breathing as he ran, there was nothing else.

He didn't know why he was running, but his instinct drove him to escape from here.

"Pah! Pah!"

Suddenly two sharp gunshots were heard, and a memory was inserted into Li Zhengyi's mind at this time.

That is, he was being chased by a group of seven or eight soldiers at this time. Those soldiers were short in stature and ugly in appearance.

However, they were all wearing the same khaki military uniforms, and they were holding a rifle that was taller than themselves. The bayonet on it shone coldly, and contained a dangerous aura.

The gunshot just now was made when they saw Li Zhengyi and fired.

We're going to catch up soon, we have to run!

After this thought flashed through his mind, Li Zhengyi ran away faster.

After all, he was now bare-handed, while seven or eight people on the other side were holding rifles with bayonets.

In order to speed up his escape, Li Zhengyi jumped directly from a short slope.

Those dwarf soldiers happened to be running by on the path above. In order to avoid them, Li Zhengyi leaned his body tightly against the mountain and tried his best to suppress his heavy breathing.

Those dwarfs let out all kinds of weird and arrogant, ferocious laughter like crazy demons.

After those people walked over, Li Zhengyi ran towards the path below.

But before he could run very far, the people behind him caught up with him again.

Although their short legs look a little funny due to their short stature, for some unknown reason, they run very fast like ghosts when they are not running.

Fortunately, Li Zhengyi's explosive speed was far beyond anyone's reach, and he could always put some distance between himself and those dwarf soldiers.

Gradually, the gunshots became sparse. Li Zhengyi turned around and found that he had finally shaken off those disgusting things.

Just as he climbed up a hill and was about to leave, the dwarf soldiers shouted arrogantly like evil spirits from the village behind him.

He couldn't help but turn his head and look at it. Looking from a distance, he saw some villagers wearing simple cloth being driven out of their homes by the dwarves at gunpoint.

Although there were no expressions on the faces of the villagers, Li Zhengyi found that the colors on their bodies were gradually fading away, as if they had turned into frozen photos.

This situation made the dwarfs become even more arrogant and crazy, constantly using their rifles to drive away the villagers captured from each house.

Why should I run?

Perhaps because his anger broke through some kind of limit, Li Zhengyi suddenly felt such an idea appear in his mind.

Then he remembered that he had weapons, and when he moved his hands, a pair of sharp swords appeared.

And it’s not over yet…
