Chapter 257: Sideways
With Xuan Zhen taking over, Meng Qi had no worries, left directly, and returned to Xingyunzhuang.
Is this a good thing to leave a name...... While laughing at himself, he stepped into Zhuangzi.
Knock knock, Meng Qi just passed the wall, he heard someone knocking on the door, subconsciously stopped to look back, and happened to see the porter open the side door, showing a familiar figure.
He suddenly smiled and turned to the door: "I thought you would arrive in two days, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." ”
The person who came was Jiang Zhiwei, her cloud-like hair was pulled up at will, wearing her favorite goose yellow dress, holding a long sword, bright and bright, and the atmosphere was free and easy.
After the last mission, she had opened all nine senses, and now goodbye, Meng Qi only felt that she was sharp and restrained, and the sharpness and tightness that she had often had disappeared without a trace, and she was casual and casual, and she would not be seen as a swordsman at a glance, but Meng Qi could imagine what a brilliant brilliance she would explode when she drew her sword.
"You know my temperament, if you can challenge the 'Invisible Sword', how can you not hurry?" Jiang Zhi looked at Meng Qi with a smile, "You are also extremely fast going south." ”
"Who told me to be idle and have nothing to do?" Meng Qi quipped.
The porter saw that the two knew each other well, and saw that Jiang Zhiwei had an outstanding demeanor, so he vaguely guessed his identity, and hurriedly went inside to report, leaving the two to catch up.
"You also live in Xingyunzhuang?" Meng Qixu asked.
Jiang Zhi shook his head slightly: "Yingcheng is the county seat of Ling County, and there is a sword pavilion here in this gate, so there is no need to nag about the invisible sword." ”
She is not afraid of the pressure brought by He Jiu, it is purely the mentality that she can live in her own house, why should she go to someone else's house to help.
After chatting about what they had experienced with each other for more than a month, Meng Qi passed on the news and told Jiang Zhiwei about the myth of himself and Senior Brother Qi.
He didn't mention the matter of reincarnation and grudges, nor did he mention Gu Demon Girl, and deliberately emphasized Dongyang Beppu, for fear that the Eastern Scenery guarding Xingyunzhuang would snoop on a whim, expose the secret, and be wiped out. The specific situation will have to be explained in detail at another time.
Jiang Zhiwei found out that Meng Qi had something to hide, because Qi Zhengyan was unlikely to escape with her own strength, but she also understood Meng Qi's scruples, and said with a solemn face: "I will report to the sect to see if I can ask the master and uncle in charge of Jiangdong to help, and you should be careful when you go out yourself." ”
"Hmm. Meng Qi nodded, "By the way, I also found traces of the Wolf King." ”
He told Jiang Zhiwei about the beggar gang.
"Wolf King......" Jiang Zhiwei's eyes lit up at first, and then she muttered, "It's a pity that I'm injured." ”
She wants to fight to the death with the wolf king in the open. But the Wolf King obviously won't do what she wants, he prefers to lurk in the dark, patiently waiting for the opportunity to deliver the fatal blow.
"I'll ask my local colleagues to help me find out, and when I find out, we'll do it together. Jiang Zhiwei knew about the wolf king's sneak attack and assassination of Meng Qi, and made the decision to besiege and kill without the slightest hesitation, which is called one report and one report.
Meng Qi nodded first, and then quickly reminded: "Prevent ambushes." It's better to invite another helper, well, Brother Wang Zai of the Zhou Jun Wang clan is very suitable. ”
Wang Zai's father was the youngest grandmaster of the Wang family, and he was the secretary of the household department. The status is very important, and if someone wants to set a trap, he has to weigh a few points first, and his strength is also extraordinary. "Mighty and unyielding" is a must for "explosive seeds", coupled with "poor and lowly can not be moved" and "sage nine swords", if you really encounter a strong enemy. I can't say that he can resist better than himself!
If you don't use the "immovable golden lotus" derived from the "Wujiyin", you are mainly "protective", while Wang Zai is "defense", and she is good at different directions.
The two ended these topics cleanly, turned to small talk, and after a while, the porter came out from inside and asked Jiang Zhiwei to meet He Jiu, and Meng Qi took the lead and accompanied him.
The injury on He Jiu's neck was mostly healed, and it was no longer bandaged, revealing hideous marks.
With just one glance, Meng Qi understood that the real injury was much heavier than the so-called flesh injury he had before, and if it was a little deeper, half of his neck would be broken.
Of course, the wolf king must be more seriously injured than him, at least He Jiu's demeanor can't see the impact of the injury, and the surface healing is extremely fast, and there is not much weakness, and the wolf king has to show a trace of it, and ask the beggars to find a healing elixir, not to recuperate.
Meng Qi guessed that the medicine on his body was afraid that the effect was not good, and it was a little difficult to walk......
He Jiu sat with a golden sword, watching Jiang Zhiwei and Meng Qi enter, his eyes gradually brightened, and his eyebrows moved slightly: "Jiang Nuxia has opened all nine tricks, which is really gratifying." ”
He was not surprised or afraid, but full of anticipation.
Jiang Zhi did not hide her cultivation slightly, and said with a smile: "Compared with the realm of the young owner, it is still a little worse, and you can only rely on the sword in your hand to compete for a misty chance." ”
"The nine tricks of the Taishang Sword Sutra, and the comprehension of 'the sword out of me', the way of the sword is successful, only on combat power, still above the wolf king. He Jiu just compared the wolf king, and didn't mention himself, obviously thinking that Jiang Zhiwei was still half a step behind, after all, everyone is a disciple of the martial arts sect, and the difference in the grade of the divine skill is not too big, even if Jiang Zhiwei is full of genius, similar to Su Wuming back then, but He Jiu will not be much worse, and there is also the advantage of the realm, and there is the accumulation of years.
"I have never fought with the wolf king, and I dare not speak falsely. Jiang Zhiwei is not proud.
He Jiu laughed and said: "Jiang Nuxia's nine tricks are open, so that this Xingyun banquet will be more surprising, I won't try it now, the more I look forward to the opponent, the more I have to put it to the end." ”
Meng Qi watched from the side, deeply feeling that He Jiu's posture was heroic and confident, and he was a fierce rival on his outstanding road......
............
After another day, Meng Qi didn't go out to hang out, and stepped up his cultivation of the Yijin Sutra, the Eight or Nine Xuangong and the Golden Bell Jar, in order to open the Ninth Heavenly Aperture as soon as possible.
In the evening, Jiang Zhiwei suddenly came to visit, and the voice passed into the secret and said: "I followed the helmsman of the beggar gang and found the place where the wolf king was hiding. ”
"Really?" Meng Qi subconsciously asked, his eyes lit up, and he shook the handle of the knife, the wolf king attacked him twice inexplicably, and it was time to pay it back.
The two of them left Xingyunzhuang, as if they were swimming side by side, Meng Qi took the opportunity to tell Gu Xiaosang about saving Senior Brother Qi, as for the embarrassing thing like the little girl calling her father, of course he didn't mention it.
Jiang Zhiwei suddenly realized that, like Meng Qi, she had a lot of guesses about Gu Xiaosang's intentions.
Not long after, the two arrived at Mi's house and found Wang Zai.
"Kill the wolf king?" Wang Zai's calm expression became a little more excited when he spoke.
He cultivates Confucianism and righteousness, is honest and frank, is more benevolent and righteous, and has no good impression of the wolf king, and although he has a calm temperament, he is also a young man in his twenties after all, how can he not have a little flying meaning, "the wolf king who is the fifth on the list of people to be killed", just these words make people's blood boil.
"Yes, Brother Wang, do you want to be together?" Meng Qi laughed like a bad guy kidnapping a child.
Wang Zai took a deep breath and said heavily: "Okay!"
Jiang Zhiwei took Meng Wang and the two of them, crossed Huishui through the stone arch bridge, crossed the streets and alleys, and arrived at the upper reaches of the Tianxiu River, close to Yanyu Mountain.
It has the prosperity of extending from the Tianxiu River, but also has the seclusion away from the center of the city, and it will not lose its secrecy because it is too noisy, nor will it be easy to expose itself because there are too few people.
Jiang Zhiwei, Meng Qi, and Wang Zai hid behind a tree, and pointed to the courtyard opposite by the water: "That's it." ”
Looking at the courtyard that was about to melt into the darkness, Meng Qi nodded: "The location is inconspicuous, but it is accessible in all directions, so it is easy to escape, let's pass the bridge first, and then slowly approach." ”
The wolf king is good at sneaking attacks, good at wandering between the dark, and must be cautious about his siege, this kind of character has a strong ability to sense danger, and if something is wrong, he will immediately run away, so that he and others will be wasted.
Meng Qi used the illusion demon body method, wrapped his whole body in spirit, and quietly sneaked into the courtyard, although Jiang Zhiwei and Wang Zai were not as good at stealth, and they were a little behind, so as not to be discovered by the wolf king, but they also opened the nine tricks, and initially came into contact with the mysteries of the eyebrows and ancestors, even if they had not yet cultivated, the hiding of their own breath was not as rough as before, especially Jiang Zhiwei, who had practiced the illusion Dafa before, and now stepped in the dark, like a fairy shadow, ethereal and difficult to see.
The yard was cold, and in the cold of winter, there was not even the sound of insects, except for the traces of the wind, it was very quiet, making people wonder if there was anyone inside.
Meng Qi went around to the side courtyard wall, pressed his right palm lightly, and his body flew up silently like a cloud, and then quietly fell to a hidden place like a fallen leaf.
He approached the room, knowing that at this distance, it would be extremely difficult to hide from the wolf king, and he didn't struggle, so he suddenly accelerated, almost dragged out the afterimage, and slammed the door open, and at the same time, he drew his knife out of its sheath to prevent a secret attack.
Jiang Zhiwei and Wang Zai also became faster at the same time, and pounced on the wing room from the other two angles, falling a little behind, so as not to hide in the kitchen or something like that.
Meng Qi stood in the middle of the room with a knife, his face becoming solemn, because there was no one inside.
There were discarded strips of cloth in the room, which were stained with pus and blood, and the residual breath of the wolf king was still in the senses.
Wang Zai touched the quilt: "It's still warm, and it's no more than a stick of incense." ”
The three of them searched separately, but failed to find a trace, and after meeting again, Jiang Zhi groaned slightly: "The wolf king seems to know in advance that we will come......"
"But only the three of us know about this matter......" Meng Qi didn't mean to doubt it, but just felt strange, "Maybe it's his habit to transfer ......"
............
In a dimly lit room, the tall, thin and indifferent Wolf King sat on a chair, with a blood-red elixir in his outstretched left hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "Why did you save me and give me the elixir to treat the invisible sword qi?"
Across from him stood a woman, graceful and luxurious, dressed in a robe inlaid with gold thread patterns, and wearing the mask of the "Queen Mother of the West" commonly found in theater.
"I want your help with a man. "Queen Mother of the West" was flat. (To be continued......)
