Liqi had a ponytail and a long sword slung around her waist. β¦ββππ¨π¨π π₯πSearchπ¬ππ¨πππππ¨π¦Readβ
She had always wanted to learn swordsmanship from Karim, but Karim used a giant sword, which was not suitable for her.
Although the task was boring, she still did her duty faithfully, walking back and forth next to the iron cage, checking on Ivis's condition from time to time.
This was a task assigned by Karim, and she had to complete it satisfactorily. She didn't want to leave any bad impression on Karim.
The clouds are thick tonight, and the moon is obscured by the clouds, making the night relatively dark.
"Water..." Ivis suddenly said one word weakly.
Li Qi immediately turned to look at him and asked, "What?"
"Water... give me some water, I feel like I'm going to die." Ives said weakly, out of breath, feeling like he would belch at any time.
Li Qi refused: "No, you can only drink water once a day. You have already drank it today."
Ivis begged: "Please, I'm getting weaker and weaker during this period. I can no longer drink water once a day. I know my body best. Cough...cough...give me some water." Really... dying..."
He was speaking intermittently, breathing out more than he was breathing in, and he looked like he was really dying.
Liqi hesitated for a moment: "Kalim wants him alive and personally sends him to the gallows. ββββα΅€β.cββIf he dies now, then Kalim will definitely be unhappy. Just a little water..."
"Then let me pour you some." She remembered that the bucket was not far away, and usually everyone would grab a spoonful of water when they wanted to drink it.
Li Qi walked over in a few steps, took a spoonful of water with a spoon, and carried it smoothly to the iron cage.
The iron cage was very small on the ground. Liqi took a spoon and placed it on top of the iron cage and said, "Open your mouth."
"Thanksβ¦β¦"
Ivis whispered, and then slowly opened his mouth.
Lizzie began to tilt the spoon in her hand, and the water began to drip.
Suddenly, a tiny black shadow flashed past.
Liqi's eyes widened, her beautiful eyes widened, and then she threw herself forward and fell on the iron cage.
A blood hole appeared on her forehead, and a blood hole appeared on the back of her head, with bright red blood flowing out.
Ivis glanced at the corpse indifferently, looked around, then stretched out his deformed left hand with difficulty, and struggled to use his fingers to hook the keys around Liqi's waist. Among the bunch of keys was the key to the iron cage.
He had been hiding a tiny fragment of bone in his mouth.
Ivis usually eats the same food as slaves, which is food from the swill bucket.
There were many kinds of food mixed in the swill bucket, and he once ate a small bone fragment.
After he ate the bone, he immediately hid it under his tongue as if nothing had happened.
The guards guarding him would not come to check his mouth, so this bone had been hidden for more than 20 days and was an important tool for his escape.
When Li Qi came close to pour the water, the moment he opened his mouth, he used all his strength to shoot out the bone and shot it through Li Qi's head.
With the experience of repeatedly having his hands and feet disabled during this period, he deliberately concealed the recovery progress of his left hand. Anyway, if it was a day or two slower than before, no one would notice it. They would just think that the recovery from a long-term injury is getting slower and slower.
Although he was crippled and seriously injured, he was still a great knight.
He couldn't kill with his hands and feet, he still had a mouth and a chest to use force.
To deal with people like Li Qi who are not even knights, he only needs to be able to move the parts above his neck.
It was when he shot through Li Qi's head that Herag discovered the movement here through Deep Blue.
Ivis stretched his hand out of the cage with difficulty and struggled to hook the bunch of keys.
He pressed his whole body against the cage, just to extend the distance his arms could stretch out.
Just when he was about to hook the keys with his fingers, the bunch of keys was snatched away by a hand that suddenly appeared.
Ivis raised his head dumbfounded and saw Herague looking at him with a smile on his lips.
"Give me...please..." Ivis really begged this time.
Herage smiled and said: "It seems that you really want to go out. You were so focused that you didn't even notice that I walked beside you."
"Please..." Ivis begged softly.
He didn't dare to speak loudly. If he alerted others, he would have no hope of escaping.
Herague spread his hands: "I'm sorry, I won't get involved in your affairs. I came to stop you from escaping, just to prevent you from running away and delaying our march."
He didn't care whether Ivis lived or died, and it didn't matter to him whether he could escape or not.
The main reason is that if Ivis runs away, then Karim will definitely find a way to capture Ivis when he sees the dead Liqi, and the caravan's schedule will definitely be affected by then.
If Herage left by himself, it would still be half a month's journey, and preparing supplies would be troublesome.
In order to save himself less trouble and keep his schedule unaffected, he decisively took action to prevent Ivis's escape.
"Karim, your prisoner is about to escape, and you are still sleeping?" Herage's voice was not loud, but it was particularly obvious in the quiet night.
Many carriages around them immediately turned on their lights, and some disheveled people with sleepy eyes got out of the carriages to check the situation.
Karim hurried over and saw Liqi lying on the iron cage at a glance, his eyes glared: "Liqi!"
He rushed over and picked up Li Qi's body. After looking at the wound on Li Qi's head, his heart suddenly became cold, knowing that this was a certain death.
"Who did this!" Karim roared angrily.
He has always regarded Liqi as his sister. In his heart, Liqi has always been a simple and lovely girl, and he has taken care of Liqi in many aspects.
Now that Li Qi died tragically, Karim felt extremely angry and sad.
Ivis quickly climbed to the other side of the cage, not daring to look at Karim at all.
"What did you do?" Karim noticed Ivis' movements in the cage and roared.
At this time, almost all the people in the caravan were awake, and many people came closer. Many ladies covered their mouths in surprise after seeing Liqi's body in Karim's arms.
Ivis shook his head in panic: "No...it's not..."
"If Ivis killed him, the murder weapon should be something like a bone hidden in his mouth." Herage said from the side.
Karim looked at the wound again, then at the spoon that fell on the ground and the traces of water, and combined with the information Herage said, he instantly restored the entire incident.
"E! Wei! Si!" He roared, putting Li Qi's body aside, and then violently tore apart the iron cage, grabbed Ivis from inside, and held it in his hand like a little baby. chicken.
