Little Ann looked at Li Qingshan. Under the sunlight and snow, he seemed to be covered in a halo. His smile was so brilliant that no one dared to look him in the eye. It was practically glorious. That hand seemed to be an invitation from the world of light.
The pain of being burned by the sun was still etched in his heart, but he could not stop himself from reaching out his hand. The hand that had no flesh, only white bones, was like a moth attracted to a flame. Even if he was burned by the sun at this moment, he could not refuse the invitation from that hand.
His index finger crossed the boundary between light and darkness first. The sunlight did not burn him. Instead, an extremely warm feeling ignited from the depths of the spirit ginseng. He almost could not wait any longer as he placed his hand in Li Qingshan's.
Li Qingshan clenched the pale, skeletal hand that might have been rather terrifying to a normal person.
Little Ann stepped out of the room and crossed the boundary between light and darkness, bathing himself in the sunlight.
Li Qingshan laughed loudly as he lifted Little Ann up. "How do you feel?"
Little Ann nodded happily, expressing that he felt great. He had never felt so good before.
Sunlight was not only harmful to ghosts, but it could also suppress all evil in the world. Oxen was not fooling Li Qingshan. Little Ann was not afraid of sunlight not because he was powerful enough, but because he could not be categorized as an evil demon. He even possessed the solemn and holy aura of Buddhism. This was the power of the Path of White Bone and Great Beauty, a demonic ability created by an eminent monk of Buddhism. Life and death were difficult to distinguish, and Buddhism and the demonic were one and the same.
On such a joyous day, even Li Qingshan could not think of any good ideas to celebrate for Little Ann. Little Ann could neither eat nor drink. Was he supposed to rush out and dig out two hearts?
As a result, he waved his hand. "I'll make you a snowman!"
As expected, Little Ann was as happy as a normal child.
Li Qingshan said, "I didn't tell you, did I? My skill in making snowmen is even better than my divine power."
Little Ann immediately showed a look of admiration. Li Qingshan was very satisfied and laughed. He squatted down and rolled the thick snow into a big ball. Then he rolled another small ball and placed it on top of the big ball. He looked at it and was very satisfied with the perfect shape of the two snowballs. He was about to go back to the house to find something to make a nose and eyes.
Suddenly, he saw a white figure standing in front of him. He took a closer look and realized that the white figure was actually himself. A snow sculpture of Li Qingshan. Although his facial features were a little blurry, his figure and his aura were simply lifelike. Little Ann was patiently sculpting the curves of his clothes.
Li Qingshan said, "This … This was done by you?" This was no longer a snowman, but a snow sculpture!
Little Ann nodded and looked curiously behind Li Qingshan.
"Ha!" Li Qingshan opened his mouth and exhaled. He turned around and kicked the two perfect snowballs into pieces. Little Ann was shocked. "Haha, this is just practice. Now I'm going to be serious."
Little Ann completed the snow sculptures of the big Li Qingshan, the middle Li Qingshan, the little Li Qingshan, and all kinds of birds and beasts.
"Ha!" "Ha!" "Ha!" Li Qingshan destroyed his "masterpieces" one by one, collapsing on the snow in exhaustion. "Alright then. My ability to make snowmen is still a little lacking compared to my innate ability."
But seeing how Xiao An was having so much fun, it could be said that he had achieved his goal!
"Someone is coming!" Li Qingshan's heart skipped a beat. Hearing the footsteps, Little Ann immediately hid in the house. "Dong, dong, dong." After a few knocks on the door, Li Qingshan opened the door. It was the advisor.
The advisor smiled. "Arrester Li, how did you sleep last night? My lord wants to invite you to the yamen. There will be a court hearing today."
Li Qingshan told Little Ann to hide well and went to the yamen. Ye Dachuan personally invited him to the back hall and ordered someone to take out a set of clothes. It was the arrester's uniform and a standard Wind-entwining Saber.
Li Qingshan couldn't refuse the kindness of others. Moreover, the identity of arrester was also useful to Li Qingshan. Although the government in this world didn't seem powerful, there must be something special about it since it could occupy the world's orthodox position. He needed this title for the time being.
Li Qingshan went to a side room to change his clothes and equipped the Wind-entwining Saber. When he emerged again, his bearing had changed once more. The black arrester's uniform was not as ugly as Li Qingshan had imagined it to be. Instead, it was very much like a uniform. When he wore it, he lost some of the unrestrained and unrestrained bearing of the people of the jianghu, but gained some solemnity and heroism.
Ye Dachuan said, "I originally thought it was a little too small, but I didn't think it would be just right. Although it can't compare to the proper Black Wolf uniform, you really do look more impressive than the proper Hawkwolf guards when you wear it."
Li Qingshan thought that it really wasn't his imagination. He really had become thinner. It was not because he had exercised too much in the past few days. It was probably the effects of practising the Tiger Demon's Fist of Bone Forging.
"The Black Wolf uniform? The Hawkwolf guard? "
Ye Dachuan said, "Hmph, they're just a bunch of condescending, ruthless wolf cubs. Don't worry, they can't control this place. In Qingyang city, you and I are the ones in charge!"
Originally, Li Qingshan had only asked casually, but he instead paid attention to it now. Ye Dachuan seemed to be implying that if the Hawkwolf Guard managed to control this place, they would no longer be the ones in charge. However, Ye Dachuan had witnessed his martial prowess before. As it seemed, the imperial court and government of this world were not as weak as he had imagined them to be. The weak ones were probably just sir Ye before him.
He had been shut up in the mountain village for over a decade, going on expeditions as soon as he emerged. He did not have the time to properly understand this world. Even now, it was the same. He needed to practise the Tiger Demon's Fist of Bone Forging as soon as possible so that he could deal with the changes and dangers that might come next.
"Sir Ye, arrester Li, it's time for you to enter the court," said the advisor.
Li Qingshan stood there and struck a pose before bidding farewell. When he returned to the courtyard, he discovered that the door was open. His heart leapt, and he rushed through the door, only to see Huang Binghu studying the snow eagles in the courtyard. "Qingshan, you sure are in good spirits!"
Li Qingshan smiled bitterly. He could not argue back. "Hunting chief, you've come so quickly. Don't tell me these are?" There were eight large jars of alcohol and two bamboo baskets in the courtyard. They were extremely eye-catching.
"Obviously the tiger bone alcohol you wanted!" Huang Binghu opened a jar of alcohol, and the heavy fragrance of medicinal alcohol permeated the entire courtyard.
"So many!"
"I've taken out everything I've got." Huang Binghu studied Li Qingshan with a smile. "You sure are handsome in your attire. If you really join the Hawkwolf Guard, you won't have to worry about others trying to steal your things."
The Hawkwolf Guard again? Li Qingshan said, "Hunting chief, is the Hawkwolf Guard really that powerful?" Huang Binghu had left Qingyang city in the past and visited a place as large as the Clear River prefecture, so Li Qingshan obviously wanted to ask for his guidance.
