The Meng family is really doomed.
Meng Xi's parents hurried back and saw the main house of the Meng family, which was burned to a mess, and the Meng family's village, which burned even more badly. It is said that the old man of the Meng family, the new young master and the eldest lady of the Meng family, were burned to death in the study, and there was an unknown little girl who survived.
Such a big thing, but it was closed to the coffin, and the conclusion was made with the two simple words "damnation" and "accident", and it did not set off too many waves in the main city of Ningguo, and it passed like this, at most, before and after tea, the ordinary people who sat together and gossiped occasionally mentioned that this Meng family was also unlucky, and this kind of thing happened.
But what can you do when this happens?
Emperor Ningguo has already disliked the Meng family, and does not want to take care of the Meng family's affairs, the Meng family has no way to ask for help, and at first he hugged the thigh of the second prince, but at this time, the third prince is rising, and the second prince himself is difficult to protect, at first he also wanted to increase his strength with the help of the power of the Meng family's spiritual master, but the Meng family did not have a capable and obedient spiritual master, for the second prince, such a Meng family has become an abandoned son of his.
"So, that's the end of the Meng family?" An unknown little girl sat in the living room of a remote small house in the civilian area of the main city of Ningguo, crossed her feet and opened her big ignorant eyes, and asked, "Also, what is an unknown little girl?" I have a name, okay! ”
Sima Qi blinked and made an innocent statement: "I'm just paraphrasing 1510, that's what people call you." ”
Jiang Nannan: "...... These people don't have the most basic gossip principles at all! I've figured out people's names! ”
Sima Qi leaned over with a smile: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, I'll release the news another day, and I'll say that it was not only the three members of the Meng family who were burned to death in Mengjiabizhuang, but also a lovely little girl named Jiang Nannan." ”
Jiang Nannan rolled his eyes: "...... Are you coaxing me like a child? Even if it's Meng Wudi, you won't be coaxed. ”
Meng Wudi, who was named, raised his head, glanced at Jiang Nannan, and then looked at Sima Qi who was rubbing beside Jiang Nannan, and silently lowered his head and held the bun and nibbled on his own.
Zhang Jiyao opened his mouth on the side and inadvertently interjected: "Jiang Nannan, do you say that you are the reincarnation of a broom star?" How can it be finished wherever you go, when you arrived at the Xu family, the Xu family was finished, and now when you arrive in Ningguo, the Meng family is also finished. ”
Jiang Nannan: "......"
Blame her?
In most cases, Jiang Nannan will only make mistakes in the face of Zhao Qingxuan, and she will not be polite in the face of Zhang Jiyao, she will slam back with full firepower: "Why don't you talk about yourself?" It's you, so where are you going to get into trouble, right? ”
Zhang Jiyao: "......"
Zhang Jiyao has always been stupid, he shrank back and touched his nose, Jiang Nannan is right, who let Jiang Nannan and Zhang Jiyao and others basically be on the scene when these things happened.
Zhang Jiyao diverted the topic: "What about the eldest lady of the Meng family and Gu Changlin, why don't you see anyone?" ”
Sima Qi replied: "Ah Xi's body is not very good, he is lying in the room to recuperate, Gu Changlin should be pulled by Sui Sui to help again." ”
Zhang Jiyao muttered: "It's really not a shame for a big man to walk around the two little girls all day long." ”
Sima Qi smiled silently.
Two days ago, the second fire in Meng's Villa, only the old man of the Meng family who suddenly became ill was burned to death, the old man of the Meng family has been very bad in recent years, he knows that he can't last long, and he is afraid that without himself, no one can control Meng Wushu and Meng Xi, who have the power of words and spirits in front of him, and the uncontrollable spirit master is a scourge for him, and the scourge is to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
The old man of the Meng family was also the most outstanding speech spirit master in his life, he did not know how many bad things, in order to live better, he did everything he could, and later in order to be able to live, he rarely used the power of speech and spirit, but concentrated on cultivating excellent speech and spirit masters so as to use their power. But as he grew older, the old man of the Meng family was no longer good, he knew that he was going to die soon, and he used his words and spirit at the last moment.
The last words of the old man of the Meng family were to set a fire, hoping to burn all the people in the study.
But heaven is not as good as people.
Meng Wudi spoke: "It's going to be fine." ”
It's just four words, but it weighs as much as a thousand pounds.
Sima Qi descended from the sky and rescued the group, but the old man of the Meng family was almost insane, and he used his body as a sacrifice to trigger the power of words and spirits, and no one could save him by jumping into the sea of fire.
Sima Qi rescued them and placed them in a secluded courtyard, and sent someone to inform Gu Changlin and the three of them, who were in a hurry, and the matter came to an end temporarily.
Because Meng Xi didn't want to have anything to do with the Meng family anymore, a group of people didn't come forward, but hid here, Meng Xi was waiting, waiting for a suitable opportunity for her to change her face and leave here and live a new life.
Jiang Nannan still felt that this thing was developing too fast, as if she hadn't experienced anything, but everything had already settled.
In this regard, Sima Qi's answer was as follows: "What you see is only on the bright side, and you don't know everything that happens in the dark, just like the waves under the calm water, you don't know when a huge whirlpool will appear to swallow everything." ”
So, what's going on in the shadows?
Sima Qi was silent, and refused to tell Jiang Nannan.
Jiang Nannan even asked: "At that time, why did you suddenly appear in front of us and rescue us in such a timely manner?" ”
"You can think of Meng Wuxuan's words as having a role, that day, a voice in the dark told me that my beloved little girl was about to encounter difficulties, and there was an invisible force that guided me there."
Jiang Nannan: "...... Are you serious? ”
Sima Qi blinked, how innocent: "Of course, don't you believe in the Meng family's spiritual skills?" ”
Jiang Nannan: "......"
Jiang Nannan decided not to discuss this topic with Sima Qi.
What will happen to the Meng family in the future is no longer something she cares about, anyway, she is just a passerby, and it is good to be able to bring Meng Wushu out safely. The problem Jiang Nannan is facing now is where to find the score of "Jade Gate West".
Meng Xi has been in poor health since she was rescued from Meng's family, her face is pale as if she will die at any time, and her complexion is not a little worse than when Jiang Nannan first saw her, I really don't know what happened in just a few days, so that a girl who looked just a little delicate at first became the seriously ill she is now.
Meng regrets this state, Jiang Nannan is embarrassed to ask her if she knows about the score of "Jade Gate West", she can only wait for the opportunity.
And just when Jiang Nannan had a headache for the score of "Jade Gate West", Sima Qi quietly appeared in Meng Xi's room.
Sui Sui and Gu Changlin were sent out by Meng Xi, she just wanted to have a good rest alone, but Meng Xi's internal organs were all painful, and she couldn't sleep peacefully because of the pain, so as soon as Sima Qi appeared, she opened her eyes vigilantly.
Sima Qi leaned against the window, still with that gentle and innocent smile on his face, he lowered his head and played with a tassel hanging in front of his chest, and said: "What I promised you, I have already done it, when will you give me what you promised me?" ”
Meng Xi lay on the bed, and it took a long time to sit up, half leaning on the head of the bed. Sima Qi saw that she was so laborious, and he didn't mean to step forward to help her, the two of them didn't look like friends or strangers, as if they were in a state of mutual temptation between two businessmen doing business.
Meng Xi coughed a few times, her lips were paler than her face: "When I leave the main city safely, I will hand over the things to you, you don't have to worry." ”
Sima Qi laughed and said, "I'm not in a hurry, the Meng family has collected so many ancient books and antiques for the spirit master, I think your eldest lady of the Meng family has been tired of reading it since she was a child, but I'm not worried that you will deduct a piano score from me." ”
In order to cultivate the spirit master, the Meng family will naturally provide them with the best everything, and the best thing to cultivate the spirit master is the object with age and history, the oldest thing is the better, because in this way they can extract the power that belongs to the time from it and transform it into their own word and spirit power, so the Meng family will wear some ancient jewelry in case of emergency.
The old man of the Meng family carried a string of thousand-year-old Buddha beads on his right wrist, and he relied on the power of these thousand-year-old Buddha beads at the last moment to launch the technique of speech and spirit.
However, it is a pity that his strength is obviously not as strong as Meng Wushu.
Sima Qi smiled again: "Actually, to be honest, I admire you a lot, you dare to make a deal with our Sima, just to completely break away from the Meng family, don't you know that our Sima is known as a vampire and can squeeze everything out of the employer?" ”
Meng Xi said coldly: "I have seen the Meng family, what other vampires are more terrifying than the Meng family?" ”
Meng Xi obviously didn't want to talk more about this topic.
She has always wanted to leave the Meng family, but she is just a girl who has nothing left but the power of words and spirits, and the price to pay for using words and spirits is too great, so she can only take risks and make a deal with Sima Qi of the Sima family.
Sima Qi helped her escape from the Meng family completely, and she would promise to give Sima Qi an ancient sheet music.
In Meng Xi's opinion, the piano score has no value, and it is simply not cost-effective to exchange a worthless piano score for his own freedom.
But obviously, Meng Xi underestimated her status in the eyes of the Meng family, and the Meng family tried every possible way to get her back, she had no choice, only by completely destroying the Meng family, could she regain her life.
The Meng family has many enemies.
Meng Xi only needs to give the Meng family's enemies a handle, and naturally there will be many people rushing to help her deal with the Meng family, and she doesn't need to make a move at all, all she needs to do is to cause two fires.
Although, just these two fires have already caused Meng Xi's body to suffer heavy damage.
Meng Xi asked Sima Qi: "Mr. Bei is still here?" ”
Sima Qi raised his eyebrows: "What, you haven't given up yet?" ”
Meng Xi smiled gloomily: "It's all come to this point, how can I give up?" ”
The ability to worship as a treasure in the eyes of others is a deadly poison to Meng Xi, and it would be great if this ability could be removed.
"Mr. North is elusive, I don't know where he is now." Sima Qi said, "But don't worry, Mr. Bei is very interested in your ability, and he will definitely come to you again." ”
