Chapter 16: The Trinity-Eyed Witch's Gossip
Qu Menghu's face became serious and asked, "What's going on?" ”
Zhou Ping glanced out of the door, led the two into the inner room, and then closed the door, and then said: "The three students have been ordered by the teacher to come to Yucheng to investigate the news, and they have been collecting relevant news about Cheng Lanting, and it turned out that this person disappeared from the public eye a year ago, and then we inquired from several sides, and it is said that this person is seriously ill and dying, and there is no way to show his face......
Qu Menghu frowned and said, "Seriously ill and dying? A year ago? ”
Zhou Ping nodded, and said yes, judging from the feedback from all sides, it has been confirmed that the news is accurate, Xu Qingshan bought the servants of the Cheng Mansion, and learned that Cheng Lanting had been away from home for more than a year, but as for going there, this statement is different, some say that they went to the courtyard outside the city, and some say that they went to the countryside of Wushan, as for what it is, we have not found out yet......
Qu Menghu asked: "Then who is the person who is now in charge of the overall situation of the Yucheng Pao Brother?" ”
Zhou Ping said: "Ji Xiaoye." ”
Qu Menghu was a little dazed: "Who is this?" ”
Zhou Ping said: "Ji Xiaoye is Cheng Lanting's henchman, he used to be the phoenix-tailed elder of the Yucheng Robe Brotherhood, but now he has become a deacon, but he is not the one who presides over the overall situation, the Yucheng Robe Brotherhood is still in the hands of Cheng Lanting, no matter what he does, he is executing it according to his will, and the other principals are his henchmen; As for the people of the old dragon head era, after a few years of cleaning, they have basically come down......"
He roughly introduced the current situation, Qu Menghu frowned after listening to it, and then said: "If this is the case, Cheng Lanting is probably not as simple as being seriously ill." ”
Zhou Ping nodded and said, "Yes, a few of us have discussed, and I feel that guy seems to have foreseen that the teacher was going to trouble him, so he hid." ”
Qu Menghu shook his head and said, "No, Cheng Lanting didn't know that there was such an enemy as me. ”
Zhou Ping asked: "Didn't you hide from you?" ”
Qu Menghu said with certainty: "Yes, it is absolutely impossible for him to be like this because of me, there must be other reasons, you continue to investigate." ”
Zhou Ping didn't say anything at the moment, and immediately said: "Okay, I know, go back and inform Xu Qingshan and Qu Feng - teacher, you have been tired all the way, you must be tired, right?" I have already cleaned up the room for you and Mr. Gan, and these days, I will live here for the time being. ”
Qu Menghu nodded and said, "Well, I don't have to worry about you doing things." ”
After getting the affirmation, Zhou Ping was very happy, and took Qu Menghu and the little carpenter around the building, and he arranged the best two rooms on the second floor for the two, and after a brief introduction, he said goodbye and left.
After the others left, Qu Menghu explained to the little carpenter, saying that he hadn't been to Jaw North before, and had taught some young people who were more interested in the magic circle there.
And Zhou Ping in front of him, as well as Xu Qingshan and Qu Feng, are some of the more outstanding ones.
Cheng Lanting is now the leader of the Yucheng Robe Brothers' Association, there are many people, and his whereabouts are uncertain, he wants to take revenge this time, and he can't fight alone, so in addition to calling Gan Mo to come over to help, he also called a few students to come here to do chores and do some espionage intelligence and information gathering work......
The little carpenter felt that Zhou Ping was very good in terms of life and logical thinking, so he praised it.
Qu Menghu told him that Zhou Ping's qualifications could only be regarded as average.
Among these three people, the one who belongs to him has the strongest understanding and is also smart, the only thing that is not so good may be that he has a little more scheming - but this is also relative, and now people want to mix better in this world, if their brains are not a little lively, it is really difficult.
In the evening, he will help introduce you.
The two of them came all the way, and the journey was tiring, so they didn't say much, the kitchen was boiling hot water, and after taking turns to freshen up, they went back to their rooms.
The little carpenter went back to his room to meditate, and it didn't take long for him to settle down.
Since he entered the realm of the "Lingxiao Yin Strategy", the cultivation of the whole person has been extremely rapid, and when he sits there, his breath flows, and he can feel the breath that ordinary people cannot perceive, and absorb it with all his strength.
And these breaths, after circulating and exhaling through the meridians, will eventually be absorbed and become part of their own strength.
The humanoid dragon vein, this is not a simple joke.
And the boundary of Yucheng, the Yangtze River valley in the north and south gradually decreases, the northwest and the central part are mainly hills and low mountains, the southeast is by the two large mountain ranges of Daba Mountain and Wuling Mountain, there are more slopes, the mountains and valleys in the territory are deep, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, the winter is warm and the spring is early, the summer is hot and the autumn is cool, the four seasons are distinct, the dragon and tiger gather, but it is the gathering place of the mountains and rivers in the southwest.
The aura here is surging and tumbling strongly, but it is more intense than the cultivation in other places......
I don't know how many years of cultivation have passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was evening, and at this time, there was movement in the hug, and after a while, Qu Menghu came and knocked on the door and asked him to eat.
The little carpenter got up, came to the first floor, and saw Qu Menghu's three students.
Zhou Ping he had seen during the day, he was a young shrewd man with an ordinary appearance, and his small eyes flashed a little bit of light from time to time.
He is a Jaw Beiren, which is the so-called "Nine-headed Bird in the Sky and Jaw Beiyan in the Underground".
Xu Qingshan is a big man in the north, he is tall and strong, and he looks quite honest and honest, especially when he laughs, he adds a little silly, but he is neither humble nor arrogant, polite and courteous, and he is a good seedling.
As for Qu Menghu, what he values most is Qu Feng, who has the same surname as him.
This person is a native of Yucheng, not tall, the most crooked, with a smile on his face on weekdays, his eyebrows are crooked, and he treats people very warmly.
These three people are worthy of being Qu Menghu's proud students, and each of them is a hero.
The three of them came back from buying cooked foods such as pig's head meat, braised beef and shabu shabu at the street food shop, and bought some local rice wine, plus a bunch of white steamed buns.
Qu Menghu beckoned everyone to the table, and although the three young people were about the same age as the two of them, and some were even older, they treated Qu Menghu very respectfully, and politely let Qu Menghu sit on the table.
Even the little carpenter, the guest, sat in the main guest seat.
However, as soon as the wine glass is touched, there are not many chaotic rules, and the atmosphere is lively and no longer formal.
The little carpenter found that Zhou Ping was better at drinking and greedy for glasses, while Xu Qingshan was more honest and quiet, in addition to saying a few words at the dinner table, "eat well", "eat more", "enough steamed buns", but he would not say anything more, as for Qu Feng, he was worthy of being Qu Menghu's most optimistic student, in addition to enthusiasm, he was also quite calm, and he spoke and acted in an orderly manner, and naturally talked about the topic to the current task.
Qu Feng told Qu Menghu that according to the news they had explored after their activities during this time, it was very likely that Cheng Lanting was hiding somewhere and secretly controlling the development of the Yucheng Robe Brotherhood.
Although that guy didn't show up, all the places in the Yucheng Robe Brotherhood were filled with his people, allowing him to complete the actual control of the Robe's Brotherhood.
As for the serious illness that this guy advertised to the outside world, this is very likely to be a cover, but why did he hide and refuse to show up, this Qu Feng heard a small news, saying that about two years ago, a Wushan ancient tomb was discovered, and the remains of a three-eyed villain were excavated inside.
This kind of three-eyed villain is very famous in the southwest, Qianzhou is called "Gega Gong", Tibetan is called "Bo Xun Demon", southern Yunnan is called "fine worm", as for the Bashu area, it is directly called "Three-eyed Witch".
The Three-Eyed Witch is widely circulated, and since it is called "Witch", there are naturally some things in it that are not humane.
Legend has it that after the ruins of the tomb were learned by the Yucheng Robe Brothers' Association, they were immediately blocked, and Cheng Lanting, the leader of the Yucheng Robe Brothers' Association, also went to the scene to check it in person.
At that time, all the Tufuzi who robbed the tomb were cleaned up by the Yucheng Robe Brothers' Association, but how could there be a ventilated wall in the world, this news still spread, and it was one of the Tufuzi's nephews who told Qu Feng.
The guy told Qu Feng that the Wushan Ancient Tomb was like an underground kingdom, and there were a large number of things for the Three-Eyed Witch to cultivate, sacrifice and pray to the gods, and it looked like a sacrificial temple......
And not long after that incident, Cheng Lanting said that he couldn't get sick.
Therefore, it is very likely that Cheng Lanting obtained some good things from the ruins of the Three-Eyed Witch.
Of course, these are just speculations, and in the past, Qu Feng just took it as a joke, so he didn't ask much about it, and no one knew what was going on......
Qu Menghu heard it and asked, "Where is the person who told you the news?" ”
Qu Feng said: "He teaches at an elementary school over there. ”
Qu Menghu asked, "Is it a teacher?" ”
Qu Feng was right.
This Qu Feng is a native of Yucheng, and he is quite familiar with the top and bottom of Yucheng, so Qu Menghu will ask him to lead the team and rush back to Yucheng in advance.
Qu Menghu groaned for a while, and said to Qu Feng: "In this way, you arrange it tomorrow, and I will go and meet that person for a while." ”
Qu Feng nodded and said okay.
