"This is for relieving dizziness. If you feel too uncomfortable, pour two drops into your mouth," Rong Yi said.

Li Mofu took it and sniffed it. It had a cool smell. He pursed his lips and said, "No, I'll freeze to death if I drink it."

"Okay." Rong Yi took it back.

Li Mofu took another sip of water and sat on the stool, watching everyone busying around. Even Lu Mingyun was looking at the map.

"Mr. Li, I heard that you were sold into the Marquis' Mansion to bring good luck. You were still very young when you came in. Don't you miss home?" Rong Yi's voice was very soft, with some masculine magnetism, very pleasant to the ear, and it matched well with this somewhat desolate forest.

So Li Mofu answered him in a good mood, "I don't know. Lu Mingyun said that I have no home anymore. My parents are dead, and my brothers and sisters won't recognize me."

"Then Mr. Li must be very sad, right?" Sympathy appeared in Rong Yi's eyes.

Li Mofu half raised his brows, half frowned, "It's okay. It's not me who abandoned them, they sold me out."

"But if the Marquis's Mansion hadn't tempted them with money, they wouldn't have sold you. After all, he's their own child, a boy at that, and he's a labor force in the village." Rong Yi lowered his voice and said. His eyes were light, and the light shining through them made them look even lighter, giving him a rather heartless look.

Li Mofu was no fool. He could tell he was trying to sow discord, but he still nodded in affirmation. "Yes, you are right, but there is no if."

"Master Li, don't you hate it?" Rong Yi asked again in a low voice.

The word "hate" immediately brought back Li Mofu's memories of his time in Ningqi Courtyard. Everything that happened before he came and after he came, everything about that courtyard made him hate it.

However, Aunt Bai is already dead, and he can't do anything to Lin. Fortunately, his life has been good and everything seems to be going well.

But sometimes when he woke up in the middle of the night, Li Mofu would feel that Aunt Bai died too quickly. It would be a pleasure to end this shitty life. It was a good thing for her.

But Li Mofu would not be happy if she was not allowed to die because he felt disgusted.

In short, once this hatred is formed, it will take a long time to dissipate, but Li Mofu cannot explain why it will not dissipate.

"...I don't hate you." Li Mofu lowered his head, picked up the small wooden stick at his feet and began to draw circles on the ground.

"Mr. Li, if you have a hatred that you can't let go of, why don't you seek protection from others? It only costs a little." Rong Yi narrowed his eyes and tempted.

Li Mofu thought it was really stupid to think it was easy. He didn't know how many times he would die as a spy. But then he thought again, he was not stupid, he looked down on Li Mofu! He felt that even if he explained it more clearly, Li Mofu would not be able to stir up any trouble.

The hand drawing the circle paused for a moment, and Li Mofu pursed his lips. He looked at Rong Yi with dead eyes, "Is this how you trust others?"

"...What?" Rong Yi was slightly stunned.

"Although there's nothing much to say, I'll still explain it to you," Li Mofu used a stick to cover the circle. "I'm living a good life in the Marquis' Mansion now. I have food to eat, drinks to drink, and people to take care of me. I have no ambitions. I just want to eat and wait for death."

"Besides, let me ask you, even my biological parents could sell me to someone else for money, so how can I trust the person who said he would protect me? He also wants me to help with things. Haha, if I'm not careful, I will become a stepping stone for others."

"I haven't been out much, but I'm not stupid."

Li Mofu patted Yirong's shoulder and walked towards Guozi and the others. He wanted to have some snacks.

To be honest, he didn't understand why such a grown man would easily become a beauty spy for others, nor did he understand why King Qi was so worried about Lu Mingyun fighting for the imperial power, and he couldn't understand why Lu Mingyun ran to Su County to be the county magistrate.

"Sir, please fill your stomach first, and you can eat soon." Guozi took out some snacks and gave them to Li Mofu.

Li Mofu accepted it and thanked him, which caused Guozi to panic. As he chewed the delicious snack in his mouth, he thought that he could not understand everyone here, perhaps even himself.
