Chapter Seventy-Four: Temptation

The plum blossoms in the courtyard were accompanied by snow, and the moonlight reflected the wine, Meng Qi looked at Qi Zhengyan with a solemn face, waiting for him to reply.

When Qi Zhengyan came over to discuss, Meng Qi mentioned the fact that he had come into contact with the strange stones outside the sky in the three mountains and four rivers and obtained a little inheritance with the help of the thunder marks, emphasizing the recourse of the Su Nu Dao to the Thunder God heirs - he did not suspect that Gu Xiaosang was lying on this, because it was a fact that the Seven Heavenly Maidens suddenly appeared in the three mountains and four rivers, and the Iron Hand Man Demon and the Huanxi Man Demon at that time must also be fake.

The matter of thunder marks, Meng Qi mentioned it last time, Qi Zhengyan was not surprised, but just sighed lightly: "Senior Brother Meng, since you obtained the true meaning inheritance of the Ananda Breaking Ring Sword Method, you have been experiencing many adventures, which is really enviable. ”

He didn't dwell on this issue, paused, and said with a stern face: "If this matter is true, it must be solved as much as possible, the 'Gentleman's Sword' Meng Qi is my cousin's matter, and everyone in Yicheng knows it." ”

If Su Nudao determined that the "Gentleman's Sword" was the one who had obtained the Thunder God Inheritance and could not find Meng Qi, he would naturally target Qi Zhengyan, so Qi Zhengyan said so.

Moreover, the cousin relationship between Meng Qi and Qi Zhengyan can't withstand scrutiny, although the Huanhua Sword Sect and the Zhou Jun Wang Clan have a high opinion of the rookies on the list at most, and they can't get to the bottom of it, but for the sake of the Thunder God inheritance, Su Nudao will definitely not let go of any detail.

"It's me who has been involved with you, Senior Brother Qi, and you are not clean in your hands. Meng Qi sincerely apologized, "I have to ask Senior Brother Qi for your help to quietly spread the news that Shan Xiumei is the descendant of the Su Nu Dao Xuannu lineage, not to make people believe, but to arouse suspicion and vigilance, but if the elders of the Wang family are a little suspicious, they will secretly use means to identify the women around the sister-in-law." ”

"Shan Xiumei is difficult to deal with, because she is hiding in the Wang family, if she acts alone, we will join forces to snatch back the strange stone outside the sky and completely cut off future troubles. ”

Meng Qi judged the strength of this Xuannu descendant from Gu Xiaosang's single-handedly killing the Seven Heavenly Maidens and chasing and killing Shan Xiumei all the way, she was obviously weaker than Gu Xiaosang. No matter how strong the strength is, it is at the level of more than ten people on the list, and he and Qi Zhengyan join forces, even if they can't beat it, if they have the intention to calculate or not, they are still sure to snatch back the strange stones outside the world.

However, Meng Qi was a little puzzled by this, obviously spreading the news could force Shan Xiumei out of the Wang family, why didn't Gu Xiaosang do it? Even if she didn't use the power of the Luo Sect, she could handle this matter casually with her clever head.

What is her purpose in hiding?

Not being sure of Gu Xiaosang's true purpose was the biggest reason why Meng Qi was reluctant to join forces with her!

Qi Zhengyan bowed his head lightly: "It's okay, people are in the rivers and lakes." I always can't help myself, I may also have something to implicate you in the future, everyone is friends of life and death, and it is time to help each other, I have been in Yedu for half a year, and spreading a message will not expose myself. ”

Meng Qi has been practicing hard behind closed doors for half a year, isolated from the rivers and lakes, even if he wants to spread the news, he can't find a safe and secret channel for a while. Therefore, I can only ask Qi Zhengyan, he is the head of the Huanhua Sword Sect, although he has been obscure in the past six months, he still has his own "Jianghu Net" through things such as selling stolen gems.

watched Qi Zhengyan leave. Meng Qi looked at the red plum blossoms and sighed lowly:

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop ......"

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

In the sound of firecrackers, one year old, every new peach is replaced by the old charm, after the beginning of the year. The city's martial arts hall ushered in the triennial big competition, which is also a rehearsal of martial arts in late spring and early summer.

All the disciples of the Qingfeng Martial Arts Hall were led by the hall owner He Ye to the "Chiyang Martial Arts Hall" two blocks away, which was the place where this martial arts hall competition was held.

Look at the grand gates and plaques. He Du shivered nervously.

In the past few days, he has been practicing the "story" taught by Mr. Su, so as to be familiar with it, and gradually gained a little confidence, but when the Chiyang Martial Arts Hall appeared in front of him, he found that he was still nervous and uncontrollable, and he couldn't control the gains and losses, and finally found confidence and didn't know where to go.

"He Dui, don't disgrace the martial arts hall and live up to the importance of the hall master. "When the fifth senior brother saw He Dui's bear-like appearance, he hated that iron could not be made of steel.

He had always been indignant, wondering why the hall master would pick He Dui, he only defeated himself twice, and lost more often, if he was outstanding, there were at least a dozen people in the martial arts hall who were far superior to him!

This kind of mentality is in the hearts of many disciples of the Qingfeng Martial Arts Hall, the senior sister, the second senior brother, and the third senior brother are superior in strength, and they can't be jealous, Xiao Nineteen and Cheng Qilang are outstandingly talented, and the master has always favored them, everyone is used to it, why should they send you an ordinary He Dusk!

Feeling the unfriendly eyes of some of the senior brothers, He Duan became even more nervous, and could only try to let himself reminisce about the peace and tranquility of listening to Mr. Su reciting poems under the plum blossom tree.

"Senior Brother He, since Master has taken a fancy to you, there must be his reasons, don't be nervous, do your best. Qu Tianhe saw that He Du was in a trance, and kindly encouraged him.

He Du nodded gratefully, took a deep breath, and gradually calmed down when he thought of Mr. Su's appearance as if he was always calm and calm, and the story he "made up".

The Chiyang Martial Arts Hall is very large, there are several martial arts halls, there are seven or eight rings in each martial arts hall, and there is a second floor overlooking by the railing, and guests from families, sects, and gangs look down at will, looking for the young powerhouses who have become famous before the big competition.

He Du went to the ring a little confused, and in front of him was a heroic young man, probably only one or two years older than He Dui.

This ring was not noticed, and there were only some people in the Qingfeng Martial Arts Hall and the friends, relatives, brothers, and brothers of the young man opposite.

"Huanzhong Martial Arts Hall is white. "The teenager on the other side saluted and signed up.

He Dui shuddered again, and stammered slightly: "Qingfeng, Qingfeng Martial Arts Pavilion He Dui." ”

The Hengzhong Martial Arts Hall and the Qingfeng Martial Arts Hall are not far apart, He Du has heard of Bai Liang's name, he once lost to his third senior brother by the sword of one move, and he is much stronger than himself.

The judging martial artist in the ring shook his head and laughed, who is the person sent by Old Man He? This is his relative?

He coughed, "Begin." ”

Bai Liang did not give in, and he used his sword sharply, so as to achieve a quick victory, and not affect the next few competitions today - the martial arts competition lasted for five days, and the first day required the most competitions, so as to eliminate most of the people who were not strong and ensure the excitement of the next four days.

The opponent rushed forward lightly, and I avoided the edge and led him into the game...... This is a plot in the "story" "made up" by Meng Qi, and He Du has been thinking about it for the past few days, and a countermeasure quickly appeared in his mind.

But after all, it was the first time for him to participate in such an important competition, and he kept babbling stories in his heart, and his heart was not quiet. was also insincere, his reaction was half a beat slower, his steps retreated, but the long sword failed to rise, and was almost slashed by Bai Liang.

Bai Liang was so unforgiving, he pressed forward again and again, He Duan stumbled, staggered, and it was very difficult, but he meticulously used his swordsmanship to tell the story.

"Shame!" the fifth senior brother snorted under the ring. He Du is too wolf!

He Du didn't hear his words, because as the competition deepened, he found that the other party was going deeper into his story little by little, and every response triggered a plot that he had been preparing for a long time!

The nervousness in his heart gradually turned into excitement and excitement, his eyes were clear, and he no longer had the hesitation and sluggishness just now, like a calm hunter, tempting his prey while patiently waiting for him to step into the trap. Perform a story of twists and turns with yourself!

It's now! He Dui's eyes froze, not advancing but retreating, and the long sword slashed obliquely.

After two dings collided, the white long sword fell to the ground with a snap. His eyes were glazed, and he didn't seem to expect that he would suddenly lose!

The judging martial artist shook his head, Bai Liang was in a hurry to attack, and the flaws in his side became more and more obvious. Good luck!

He Dui's face was full of joy, and there was no more nervousness just now, and he was swordsmanship. Confidence in Mr. Su's story.

It turns out that I can be so strong!

It turns out that swordsmanship can really tell stories!

At this time, how could he not understand that Mr. Su was a master, a real master!

The fifth senior brother had a big mouth, he couldn't believe that He Duan had won, he had no chance of winning in the face of Bai Liang on weekdays, not to mention He Dui, who was not as good as himself!

He Du jumped out of the ring, full of anticipation for the next competition.

The next day, he fought four more battles, from youth to skill, telling the story made up by Meng Qi, different opponents have different plot ups and downs, from danger to defeat to victory, to calm and control.

By the time of the last game, his appearance had already attracted the attention of many martial arts people, and He Ye was even more surprised, obviously he taught the swordsmanship himself, how could He Du combine it to give him a completely different feeling.

"Not bad. He Ye praised He Dui, feeling that he was really right, he used his sword to move smartly, unexpectedly, "Your opponent tomorrow is Cao Chengye of the Chiyang Martial Arts Pavilion, he has just opened his eyes, and he is determined to enter the Wang clan to cultivate, you just need to play your swordsmanship well, don't care about victory or defeat." ”

"Yes, Master Pavilion. He Du didn't think that he could win, even if he was just starting out, he was very different from himself as a person who was a small person, he was happy that he seemed to have touched a new world, a new world of storytelling with swordsmanship!

After returning to the martial arts hall, He Du thought about it and decided to stay and practice hard, and when everyone was gone, he quietly arrived at Meng Qi's door, and there was a knock.

"Come in, the door is unlocked. He heard Mr. Su's warm voice.

Pushing open the door, he saw Mr. Su sitting upright under the cloister, in front of him was a game of Go endgame, smoke curling from the copper stove next to him, and warm sandalwood filled with cold, which made people feel quiet.

"Won?" Meng Qi looked at the chessboard in front of him, pondering about the matter of Yijian, and asked casually.

He Du hurriedly replied: "I won five games, thank you Mr. Su for your advice." ”

"Yes, it's quick. Meng Qi looked up at him and praised with a smile, "Tomorrow continues." ”

"I'm afraid I won't be able to continue tomorrow. He Du whispered, "The opponent is a beginner's master. ”

Meng Qi suddenly became interested: "Beginner? This kind of person is rare in the martial arts hall, right?"

"Yes, it has already been set into the Wang Clan's cultivation. He Du replied honestly.

"Wang's ......" Meng Qi pondered for a moment and asked with a smile, "Do you want to win?"

"What, how do you win?" He Dui's eyes widened, this is impossible!

"In a normal fight, you don't have any chance of winning, but this is a competition. Meng Qi said with a smile, "You used swordsmanship to tell everyone stories today, if the opponent is not careless, he will definitely find someone to inquire, so he has your image in his heart, well, a swordsman who is cautious with a sword and is good at attracting people." ”

"In other words, you started with a very believable story with today's experience and table......

He Du was dumbfounded, as if he understood or not, his watch today can be used as the beginning of the story of another competition?

It's unimaginable!

If it's a chess game, it's a far-reaching layout!

Meng Qi put down the sunspot in his hand and said with a serious expression: "You can't fight with him, so you have to use this credible story to give the other party a reversal, a reckless and quick story......"

He told Ho Twilight about the new "story", and Ho Twilight was shocked and couldn't believe it: "This, this can also work?"

"You're going to lose anyway, so it's better to give it a try. Meng Qi chuckled.

He Du nodded vigorously: "Thank you, Mr. Su." ”

He had a kind of blind confidence in Mr. Su.

Meng Qi stood up, looked at the courtyard with his hands in his hands, and said plainly:

"After today, whether you win or lose, don't come to me again. ”

"Why?" asked He Dusk eagerly.

Meng Qi didn't look back and sighed:

"Fate is scattered, it's time for me to embark on the trip, think about these stories yourself, if you have a chance to meet again in the future, I hope you have become a master of swordsmanship. ”

He Du bit his lip: "Yes, Mr. Su." ”

When he left the small courtyard abruptly, Qi Zhengyan walked out of the wing room, exhaled and said, "Senior Brother Meng, are you a little sad?"

Meng Qi looked up at the plum blossoms and said leisurely: "Senior Brother Qi, don't you think that such a state, demeanor and faint sadness are in line with the image of a worldly master?"

Qi Zhengyan clenched his fists and slowly let go: "Today, Mrs. Wang secretly used means to identify Shan Xiumei's martial arts foundation, and there is no problem, it is not a plain woman." ”

"What?" Meng Qi turned his head to look at Qi Zhengyan.

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

The next day, the Chiyang Martial Arts Hall.

Wang Ce took Shan Xiumei to the second floor, and said a little apologetically: "Xiumei, it's my mother who is making too much of a fuss, don't take it to heart." ”

"I know that the Iron Hand Man Demon makes everyone doubt me, but the clear one clears himself. Shan Xiumei replied indifferently, implying stubbornness.

Wang Ce said with a flattering smile: "I believe in you." ”

He looked down and deliberately changed the topic: "Xiumei, the martial arts hall is a grand event in Yedu, wait a minute, you have to comment." (To be continued......)
