After walking out of the blacksmith shop, Li Mengzhou walked straight towards Chaosi Lane.

Eager footsteps were heard behind him.

Shen Jiyue caught up, grabbed Li Mengzhou, and said angrily: "Why do you want me to pay for the sword?"

Li Mengzhou said very comfortably: "I have no money." ”

Shen Jiyue: "......"

For such a simple reason, Shen Jiyue was speechless.

The key is that you don't have money is your business, why do you have to buy a sword if you don't have money, and why do you want me to pay for a sword?

Shen Jiyue felt very aggrieved.

Li Mengzhou thought about it seriously and said: "You are not the eldest lady of the Shen family, you should be very rich, as a classmate, you must always help me who has no money, although it is true that I have no money to pay you back, but if you need my help with something, I will not be stingy, it can be regarded as your investment in me." ”

Where would Shen Jiyue really care about this, but thinking that thirty-five taels of silver would allow Li Mengzhou to do something for herself in the future, it was not too much of a loss. And even if she really loses, it's not a big deal, she has money anyway.

So Shen Jiyue also lost interest in shopping, so she waved goodbye to Li Mengzhou, and went out of the city alone to return to the mountain gate of the palace.

......

There is a building in the capital, which belongs to the inner city and is famous all over the world.

Its building is nine floors high, carved beams and painted buildings, jade bi golden que, flying eaves and bucket arches, green tiles and golden luan. If you climb to the top of this building, you can see the entire inner city.

The name of this building is called Taiqing Building.

On the eighth floor of Taiqing, there are two young men sitting opposite each other, each holding black and white twins, starting a game.

If Li Mengzhou was here, he would definitely recognize these two people as Guan Muyun and Wang Chuan, who had met him in the teahouse in the outer city not long ago.

Guan Muyun seemed to be focused on the chess game, frowning slightly.

Wang Chuan was looking more at the decoration and environment in this room.

"It is worthy of the Taiqing Building on the first floor of Langya, which is juxtaposed with Gentle Township. ”

Wenrou Township is a green building, Taiqing Building is a restaurant, and it is not an industry that is originally involved, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the first.

This is the first time Wang Chuan has entered the Taiqing Building, and he has gone up to the eighth floor.

If it weren't for Guan Muyun's identity as a student of the Academy, how could he borrow such a dazzling light.

As for the ninth floor of the Taiqing Building, even Guan Muyun, who has the status of a student of the academy, is not qualified to go up, it is a place dedicated to receiving real big people.

Guan Muyun also seemed to have some things on his mind, and he didn't fall behind for a long time, so he suddenly sighed and said: "That person is not as rumored, he does have deep attainments in Danqing, which makes me ashamed." ”

Wang Chuan was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "Although Li Mengzhou has not been rumored to be good in the past two days, there will always be merits, how can he have a high attainment in Danqing? After all, he is a cultivator, and he is far inferior to Brother Guan in cultivation, so there is really no need to worry about such a person." ”

Guan Muyun said flatly: "Looking at his style today, he is not a simple character, his breath between the lines is like nothing, and it is long, but it does not surprise me too much, after all, it is Amaterasu, it is not surprising." I don't really care too much, it's just that he has such a high attainment in Danqing, but he is a mess in his cultivation, and he has become a joke for many people in the capital, which is always a pity. ”

Wang Chuan said very incomprehensibly: "Brother Guan, why should I feel sorry for him? Speaking of which, I didn't even get into the academy, isn't it a pity that he is even more regretful, no matter what, he is also a person who entered Amaterasu." If you don't have good qualifications, you can enter the palace, which really makes me a little envious and jealous. I really don't understand why the people who left the palace would want someone like him?"

Suddenly.

Guan Muyun pinched Bai Zi's hand and fell on the chessboard, making a crisp sound, and he smiled: "The palace is different from the academy, and the rules are different, maybe this person is very lucky, otherwise how could he be so dazzling in the teahouse." ”

Wang Chuan continued to fall and said: "Okay Yaxing, don't talk about this person, I will prepare to participate in the court examination in the near future, maybe I will be able to get an official and a half-job in the coming year, the process of the examination is very long, it is impossible to end this winter, I can't say that I can't meet Brother Guan so often in recent days." ”

Hearing this, Guan Muyun was a little stunned, didn't speak again, grabbed Baizi, thought about it for a while, and then pressed the chessboard very firmly.

Syllable.

The crisp sound of the chess pieces falling is very beautiful, like a mountain spring dripping into the secluded tan, and there are waves in a circle.

......

Li Mengzhou originally planned to return to Chaosi Lane, but he also heard a lot of rumors about himself on the way, which inevitably affected his mood.

Thinking that I haven't been to Gentle Township for a few days, it is better to relax, and by the way, I also inform everyone Yu about their admission to the palace.

He has no relatives and no reason in the capital, and there is no one to talk to, whether it is happy or sad, no one cares about it, and he is very lonely.

At this hour, the gentle township is very empty, only the girls sit together, munching on melon seeds.

Although Li Mengzhou hadn't been here a few times, it seemed that the girls knew him and greeted him very cordially.

He didn't see the girl, and although he was a little puzzled, he didn't ask too much, and was led to the second floor by a girl.

Everyone Yu was as relaxed as ever, and when she saw Li Mengzhou, she had a smile on her face and said, "Congratulations on being admitted to the palace." ”

Li Mengzhou looked at the girl who closed the door and walked out, and said with a wry smile: "It turns out that everyone Yu already knows." ”

Everyone Yu smiled: "Your name has already spread all over the capital, and it is difficult to know it." ”

Li Mengzhou sat directly on the furry carpet, placed the black sword next to him, and said, "Presumably everyone Yu also knows that I can't see the sea of qi." ”

probably didn't hear too much loneliness in Li Mengzhou's words, and everyone Yu said with some surprise: "I originally planned to enlighten you, but it seems that you don't care very much." ”

Shaking his head slightly, Li Mengzhou said: "I was quite concerned at first, but it would be good to figure it out." I will try to find a solution to the problem, and our dean will help me. ”

Everyone Yu was stunned for a moment, poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, and said: "Since Dean Xue personally came forward to solve it, then you can relax, this person has always been very conceited, although it was when he was young, but it will not change too much, since he recruited you to the hospital, he will never ignore you, he will definitely try his best to help you solve this problem." For him, this is also a proud thing to show the means. ”

Li Mengzhou said in confusion: "Could it be that everyone knows Dean Xue, and it seems that they know him very well?"

Everyone Yu smiled slightly: "I know a lot of people in the capital, and naturally there are also those big people, so what's so strange about knowing Dean Xue." ”

Li Mengzhou nodded silently, but he didn't think much about it, after all, everyone Yu's explanation was very reasonable.

Looking at the sword placed next to him, Yu said, "This doesn't seem to be the sword you are carrying behind you, right?"

Li Mengzhou was not surprised that everyone knew about the sword, although it was once wrapped in black silk, but the shape was also easy to distinguish, it was nothing more than those kinds, with everyone's shrewdness, of course, it was easy to guess.

He replied truthfully, "I just bought it at the blacksmith's shop, and it cost me thirty-five taels of silver, although it was someone else's money." Yu everyone also knows that I really don't have much money. ”

Everyone Yu smiled and said, "After you came to the capital, you owe a lot of debts, so let's find a way to pay them off in the future." ”

Speaking of debts, Li Mengzhou suddenly recalled and wondered: "I didn't see Miss Wu'er when I entered the door just now, could it be that she was sick?"

Yu's expressions suddenly stiffened.

Although it was only a very short moment, it was still captured by Li Mengzhou, and he had a bad thought in his heart.

His expression gradually became serious, he looked at everyone Yu and said, "What happened?"

Everyone Yu was silent for a long time, as if they were thinking about how to answer, and finally sighed lightly and said: "It's not a big deal, my sister-in-law hasn't picked up customers yet, and I didn't want her to do those things, but after all, it's a Qinglou woman, and for various reasons, sometimes it's unavoidable." Wu'er also had this kind of psychological preparation, and she didn't resist much. ”

Li Mengzhou also knew that he had no way to change such a thing, but he was still very confused and said: "With the status of Gentle Township in the capital, and everyone in Yu, could it be that there are still people who dare to force it?"

Everyone Yu said helplessly: "There are always people in Gentle Township who can't afford to offend, once you meet them, what can you do." ”

Li Mengzhou was silent.

He thought that the girl lent him silver, so that he would not be unable to move an inch in the capital, which was kind to him, and he also secretly thought in his heart that he would help in the future, and now the girl was in trouble and was forced to pick up customers, he should not and reasoned to ignore it, this is the principle of his life.

So he looked at everyone Yu and said solemnly: "If the girl is willing, of course I have no reason to say anything, but even if she is unwilling, then no one can force her to do what she is not willing to do." ”

Everyone Yu looked at Li Mengzhou in a daze, and said with some anger: "What are you going to do?"

Li Mengzhou's expression was calm, but his eyes were firm, and he said, "Do what I have to do." ”

There was a deathly silence in the room.

Looking at the unyielding and unyielding gaze, everyone Yu sighed and said, "Don't mess around, even I can't afford to offend people, what can you do? Although you have entered the palace, after all, you have not yet become a cultivator, and if you offend someone who should not be offended, your future will be over." ”

Li Mengzhou sneered and said: "In my eyes, there has never been a person who cannot be offended, if I retreat, I will insult the name of the palace." Whoever that man is, if I don't return the girl to me intact, then I will slaughter him. ”

Everyone Yu sighed, leaning her back against the soft collapse, she knew that the young man who made up his mind would not listen to persuasion, and it did have a style of acting contrary to the palace sword courtyard.

Looking at Li Mengzhou's serious appearance in front of her, she shook her head and said in a deep voice: "Do you know that Zhang Chong is the general of the Lu Wangfu, and he is also a monk who has entered the realm of Chengyi. ”

Li Mengzhou rubbed the black sword hilt with his hand, his face was slightly gloomy, and he said, "It's just a general, why are you afraid of Yu?"

"If it's just an ordinary general, I naturally have a way to let him get out of Gentle Township obediently, but he is from King Lu's mansion and is the person of King Lu, who is the fourth brother of His Majesty today, and the most powerful prince in the entire Jiang country, and there are many cultivation masters under his door, although Zhang Chong is not a favored person, but as long as there is the word King Lu behind him, no one in the capital dares to offend him easily. ”

"Luwangfu ......"

Li Mengzhou's eyes were full of light.

He didn't expect that the first time he was involved with Luwangfu was in such a way.

He had never seen King Lu, but he knew better than anyone what the three words Prince Lu represented, that was the second most powerful man in the entire Jiang country, and one of the two younger brothers of His Majesty the Emperor who was still alive in the world.

At the same time, he was also the person Li Mengzhou came to the capital and vowed to kill.

Prince Tangtang, in the capital of Jiang Guo, of course, belongs to one of the most unlikely people to be killed, not to mention His Royal Highness King Lu, whose power is second only to His Majesty the Emperor and has many supporters in the court, is a real big man who cannot be compared with the King of Honor who is far outside the capital.

King Lu is less than fifty years old, because he is also a cultivator, so he looks younger, at most thirty or less than forty, he looks the most similar to His Majesty the Emperor, because they are both brothers born to the Queen Mother, and the relationship is naturally not comparable to the King Yu born to the concubine.

There is more than one person in the capital who Li Mengzhou must kill, and Qin Chengyi, the prince of Lu, is undoubtedly the first, he must take this matter very seriously, even if it is not a confrontation with Qin Chengyi head-on, but killing his minions is also something Li Mengzhou is willing to do.

The current Li Mengzhou is too weak to stand in front of Qin Chengyi at all, but he believes that at a certain moment, he will become the one who tears up everything that represents Qin Chengyi.

And today, it starts with Zhang Chong, the general under the Luwang Mansion.

......

After returning to Chaosi Lane, Li Mengzhou held the dark blue sword, flipped through the content of "Snow Melting Style", and began to practice the sword technique for the first time.

"Snow Melting Style" is the simplest move in the "Leaving the Sword Sutra", but it does not require too deep understanding, it can be mastered through hard practice, but it is not easy to understand it.

Li Mengzhou didn't think that he could practice "Snow Melting Style" to perfection in a few hours.

It's a simple way to get out of the way, and by the way, I'm more familiar with using this newfound sword.

Around the beginning of the hour, when the setting sun shone on the earth, Li Mengzhou stopped practicing, walked out of Chaosi Lane, and rushed to the mountain gate of the palace.

The girl is still staying in the gentle township, but she is taken care of by Zhang Chong's people, and in the evening, Zhang Chong will come over in person and take away the girl, what will happen next is completely predictable.

Although time is pressing, Li Mengzhou still has a lot to do.

Whether he was waiting for Zhang Chong to come, or taking the initiative to find Zhang Chong, Li Mengzhou couldn't do it alone, he was not so arrogant, and he killed a monk who had inherited the artistic conception with his cultivation that had not traveled far away, not to mention that Zhang Chong must have a lot of followers around him.

If you want to find a helper, there are the best candidates in the mountain gate of the palace.

Of course, the first thing he thought of was Shen Jiyue and He Zhengrong, but this kind of matter related to life and death, he was not very sure that he could understand these two people.

He Zhengrong didn't mention it, except for a fight, he didn't have much involved, and he wasn't even a friend at all, and Shen Jiyue was a girl, and she helped buy him a sword, Li Mengzhou was very difficult to speak.

The main reason is that Shen Jiyue and He Zhengrong have just entered the realm of traveling far away, and even if the three of them join forces, it is impossible to kill the Chengyi Cultivator.

After thinking about it, there is only one person left who is most likely to come forward.

......

In an independent courtyard somewhere in the outer courtyard of the palace, Jiang Zihua sat on a bamboo chair, his action of swallowing melon seeds was a little stiff, and the melon seeds he was holding in his hand also snapped and fell to the ground.

He looked at Li Mengzhou standing in front of him with an incredulous expression, spit out a mouthful of melon seed skin, and said, "Who do you say you want to kill?"

It was getting dark.

The cold night breeze blew dead leaves and a small amount of snow all over the ground, fluttering and sprinkling around the small courtyard.

The wind is getting stronger and the sky is getting darker.

A heavy ink color came up from the end of the sky.

Li Mengzhou looked at Jiang Zihua very seriously, and said softly, "You have to help me." ”

Jiang Zihua said angrily: "Why?"

As soon as the words fell, they were blown away by the merciless cold wind on the empty courtyard.

Li Mengzhou said calmly: "Why don't I go and talk to Senior Sister Lu?"

Jiang Zi painting: "......"

"Hehe, we have something to say, it's not that it's not non-negotiable. ”

Jiang Zihua stood up from the bamboo chair very eagerly, pressed Li Mengzhou to sit up, rubbed his hands and said: "You have to change your temper well, since you are looking for senior brother and me to help, don't say those frightening words." ”

Li Mengzhou didn't react, looked at him and said, "Then do you do it or not?"

Jiang Zihua's expression was a little stiff, and he said depressedly: "This is not a trivial matter, not to mention that killing people in the capital is a big crime, and we are disciples of the palace, so it will become very troublesome." ”

Li Mengzhou sneered and said: "Everyone knows that murder is a big crime, but there are still many people doing it, I believe you will have a way to solve it, and we don't have to reveal our identities, no one knows that we did it." ”

Li Mengzhou, who has been a killer for several years, is also quite accomplished in dealing with this kind of thing, he is confident, and no one will find out about him afterwards.

Jiang Zihua was very hesitant.

Li Mengzhou raised his eyebrows and said, "You won't dare, right?" Or have you never killed anyone at all?"

Jiang Zihua reacted very violently, glared at Li Mengzhou, and said, "I am the strongest in the outer courtyard, will I dare to kill someone...... This kind of simple thing is just an easy thing for me, and I can't hide it, I'm a man nicknamed God Killer. ”

Li Mengzhou said with a smile: "That's great, I'll wait for you in Chaosi Lane in the capital, I hope you won't be late, otherwise I can't guarantee that I won't accidentally say something embarrassing to you." ”

Jiang Zi's picture changed greatly, and he pointed at Li Mengzhou angrily, and said, "You...... You threaten me!"

Li Mengzhou walked straight out of the small courtyard and waved his hand with his back to Jiang Zihua.
