Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Tianding City is the hub of the north-south waterway, choke the throat of the east and west, it is the prosperous place of the world's first-class, it is noon, the street is crowded, one after another, it is not lively.

"Bao inquire" Cao Manzi hummed the drama and protected the money bag, not thinking that there would be anything dangerous in broad daylight and in full view of everyone, and he recently set up a gambling game, and there happened to be two invited thugs around him.

As he walked, he suddenly felt a hard object against his waist, and a hoarse voice sounded in his ears: "Turn around and go to the alley next to you." ”

The sun was shining, but Cao Manzi had cold sweat on his forehead, and he didn't dare to risk testing whether the murder weapon on his waist was real, nor did he dare to question whether the other party had the courage to commit murder on the street, so he had to slowly change direction and walk towards the nearby alley.

In this process, the "murderer" next to him was of medium height, and his hat hung forward, covering most of his appearance.

At this time, his two thugs also showed that something was wrong, but they didn't dare to make a mistake, one followed cautiously, and the other quickly moved forward, ventilating the news, and seeking rescue.

Passing through two small alleys, the population gradually thinned out, with white walls and black tiles, moss and weeds.

"Alright, let the one in the back retreat to the mouth of the alley. Meng Qi continued to suppress his voice and commanded, and the index finger and middle finger on Cao Manzi's waist did not let goβ€”when he ran the golden bell jar with all his might, his hands were comparable to weapons.

Cao Manzi had no choice but to tremble his voice to make the thug retreat, and at the same time begged: "This brother, everyone walks the rivers and lakes, and makes money in harmony, if you have any difficulties, I, Cao Manzi, will definitely help." ”

"I heard that you are Tianding City Bao to inquire. Meng Qi didn't say that he had been observing for two days.

Hearing this, Cao Manzi was very determined, and he just wanted to answer the question quickly and send away the plague god: "Everyone is promoted, and there are many friends, so you know a little more." ”

"Very well, if I want to ask the Twelve Phases God to do something, how do I need to contact them?" Meng Qi asked in a low voice.

The Twelve Phases God must have a contact method to undertake tasks externally, otherwise if they all relied on Duan Xiangfei to find their whereabouts and come to the door, they would have "starved to death" a long time ago.

Of course, Meng Qi suspected that Duan Xiangfei had definitely tried to contact and got information, otherwise how could he have met so by chance.

Cao Manzi was full of cleverness, but he immediately felt the hard object on his waist tighten, so he had to lick his lips and said: "I don't know what Brother Tai is doing with the Twelve Phase Gods, and I don't want to know, you can go to the 'Autumn Cicada Hall' on Huaishu Street to try it, ask the shopkeeper to buy seven taels or six dollars without roots, and then directly report the task and the reward you are willing to give." ”

"If the twelve gods agree to take it, on the second day, the 'Autumn Cicada Hall' will sell an ointment called 'forgetting worries', and you can go in and talk to the shopkeeper directly, by the way, you have to pay part of the remuneration in advance. ”

"Yes, I'm honest. The hoarse voice echoed in Cao Manzi's ears, and then he heard a crisp sound, and there were a few more pieces of broken silver on the ground.

Just as he looked down at the silver, his eyes flashed, and now the person who had kidnapped him just now had disappeared on the other side of the alley.

"This skill......" He was stunned, a little afraid, if he was not so cooperative, the consequences would be unimaginable.

His martial arts skills are not high, he can travel widely, and his eyesight is good.

............

Although Meng Qi said that he planned to use the method of entrusting the task to fish out the twelve phase gods in a two-pronged manner, he was not in a hurry, but monitored You Mansion every night, meditated and practiced martial arts during the day, and listened around for news, after all, the matter of the grandmaster duel and the Shen Monkey stealing the Buddha had just spread, and the nearby Twelve Phase Gods were likely not to have arrived yet, and if the task was entrusted at this time, it would definitely be accepted by the "Shen Monkey", and the effort would be in vain.

On the fourth day, people from the nearby martial arts continued to come, and Tianding City became more and more lively, and many inns and restaurants were overcrowded.

As soon as Meng Qi, who was full of food and drink, returned to the temple where the order was placed, he saw two more men and two women in the courtyard, both young people in the prime of life, the male wearing a curly beam crown, wearing a large-sleeved shirt, and a tall figure, two girls, one wearing a lake-green long skirt and white boots, and the other wearing a plain white suit, with a graceful figure, and they all looked pleasing to the eye.

I use swords, and I don't know if I can use them well...... Meng Qi muttered to himself, the two men and two women were hanging from their waists with long swords.

With Jiang Zhi's micro-pearl jade in front of her, and her words reminding her that swordsmanship is difficult to learn and master, Meng Qi always has a little more scrutiny of people who use long swords.

Because he couldn't be too eye-catching when inquiring about the news, Meng Qi didn't wear the white monk robes he bought, and after the two men and two women came in, they thought they were the monks in the temple, and they didn't pay too much attention to it, talking to themselves, talking about the battle between Cui Xu and Luo Qing's grandmaster, and talking about Shen Monkey leaving books and stealing Buddha, looking very excited.

"If we can see the two great kendo masters in the world fighting, our swordsmanship will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. The girl in the green skirt of the lake said leisurely, her facial features were upright, her skin was white and tender, and there were a few faint pockmarks on her face.

The taller man said with a smile: "When the time comes, the name of our Jiangnan Siying will spread all over the north and south of the river, and the waterways will be east and west." ”

"But only the famous seniors who have been invited can enter the city lord's mansion to watch the battle, alas......" The face of the girl in the plain white suit is round, revealing a little cuteness.

The man who was relatively short looked at the other side and said expectantly: "Brother Ning, aren't you a vast friend, is there any way?"

......

The discussion of several people was no different from the restaurant outside, Meng Qi really couldn't arouse his interest, and walked directly to the meditation room where he lived.

The monk came to meet him, and clasped his hands together with a smile: "Master Zhending, why did you come back so early today?"

"There are too many people outside, and it's annoying, so it's better to come back and find a clean place. Meng Qi said casually.

The monk pointed to the two men and two women in the courtyard: "Yes, many donors can't find a guest room, so they have to live in the Zen forest." ”

There are really a lot of people from the rivers and lakes, and even this dilapidated temple has people who come to live there...... Meng Qi sneered, greeted for a moment, and pushed open the meditation room and entered.

Tuk tuk, as soon as Meng Qi sat down, someone knocked on the door.

"This donor?" Meng Qi opened the door and saw the taller of the two men and women standing outside the door with a smile on his face.

He was dressed in a rather ancient style, with a pair of impressive silkworm eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Ning Daogu in the Four Ying of the Lower Jiangnan River, those three are the younger brothers and sisters of Xia Jieyi, Ji Xin, Le Shishi, Nie Yao, I don't know how to go up and down the mage." ”

I don't need to know your nicknames...... Meng Qi muttered as he replied, "The poor monk is really determined, why did Lord Ning Shi come?"

Ning Daogu tried his best to make himself look personable: "I thought that the master was a monk of this temple, but I lost my eyes, I don't know which temple the master is?

"The poor monk is a wild fox Zen, and he traveled to Tianding City a few days ago, and he didn't make a special trip. Meng Qi "told the truth".

Ning Daogu sighed, talked for a few words and left.

Closing the door, Meng Qi paced back to Tongpu, and vaguely heard Ning Daogu say to the other three: "It's an ordinary monk, nothing special." ”

"Seeing his extraordinary appearance, I thought he was a fellow monk like us. The girl in the green skirt of the lake said with a smile.

Ji Xin snorted: "It's not that there are no good-looking but full of weeds, is it true that a decent family relies on his appearance to accept apprentices? ”

"Regardless of him, the night after tomorrow is the time for Shen Monkey to steal the Buddha, should we go and wait near You Mansion?" Nie Yao said with great interest.

Le Shixun was diverted and said excitedly: "Yes, the night after tomorrow, the rivers and lakes will definitely gather, no matter how high Shen Monkey's martial arts are, his two fists are difficult to defeat the four hands, once he is revealed, it will definitely be difficult to escape the net, and when the time comes, we may have a chance to catch him." ”

"If we can catch Shen Monkey, our name will really spread all over the north and south of the river, and the waterways will be east and west......" Ning Daogu was also a little imaginative.

Meng Qi pursed his lips, meditated intently, and after an hour, he paced out the door and went straight to Huaishu Street.

"Qiu Cicada Hall" is an old-looking pharmacy, the shopkeeper's old eyes are dizzy, his ears are dull, and he does not greet Meng Qi.

Meng Qi was dressed in a cyan regular dress and wore a hat, walked up to the shopkeeper and said, "I want seven taels or six dollars without roots." ”

There is no root flower, and there is no zΓ i at all.

The shopkeeper was dialing the plate, and when he heard the words, he paused, and then continued to dial, and said in an old voice: "Seven taels and six coins have no root flowers?"

"Yes, before the battle of the grandmaster, you Hongbo, the youngest son of the You family, was arrested to me, and the reward was "Illusion**". Meng Qi deliberately changed his voice.

Although there is no full version of "Illusion**", it is still okay to bluff and fool people, anyway, I am not afraid of the pursuit of the twelve gods afterwards, and if you have the ability, you will chase it to the reincarnation space!

Hearing "Illusion**", the shopkeeper's eyelids jumped, he suddenly raised his head, was stunned for a while, sighed and said: "There are no root flowers and no goods today, come and pick them up tomorrow." ”

Meng Qi smiled with satisfaction, went out and changed the route continuously, took off the hat in a secluded place, and changed into a monk's robe.

Back at the temple, in addition to the "Jiangnan Siying", there are more people in the courtyard, who seem to be their friends, and they are talking happily.

"Who is that monk?"

"An ordinary monk with a pending order. ”

"Oh, no wonder he's so young. ”

After a brief conversation, they quickly returned to their own topics, and Meng Qi also concentrated on meditating on the acupoint.

Everyone in the courtyard was talking and talking, and suddenly another man came in, about in his early thirties, with thick eyebrows and red face, and heroic and extraordinary.

"I wonder if Master Zhending lives here?" the man said politely.

Ning Daogu intuitively thought that this man was not ordinary, so he greeted him with a smile: "We only arrived today, I don't know who is Master Zhending, dare to ask my brother's name, we can invite the guest to come out." ”

"Mu Hengtian. The man replied succinctly.

Le Shishi's face changed, and she said in surprise and joy: "But the young master of the eighteen waterways in the south?"

Everyone present gasped, the eighteen waterways in the south are the first-class forces in the world, and the chief scoop Zi Mu Shan is also a first-class master in the world, and he is even more a brother with the city lord Cui.

And Mu Hengtian is famous at a young age, and it is rumored that he is already better than the blue, and he is a figure who is expected to be a grandmaster in the future, and he is not at the same level as himself and other so-called Jiangnan knights.

"Eighteen waterways push the total scoop handle, and there is no title of young master. Mu Hengtian's expression was grim.

"Yes, what Mu Daxia said is extremely true. Ji Xin said flatteringly, and everyone agreed.

At this time, Mu Hengtian saw the monk come in and hurriedly asked where Master Zhending was.

Zhike pointed to Meng Qi's room: "Master Zhending has just returned. ”

What? That ordinary little monk is the Zhending Master that Mu Shao is looking for? Ning Daogu, Nie Yao, and the others were all stunned.

Mu Hengtian took a deep breath, walked to Meng Qi's room, bowed his hand, and said loudly: "Master Zhending, under Mu Hengtian, I came to wash away my father's shame, and please fight." ”
