Volume 1 A Hundred Years of Fortune in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 188 Luo Jing's Appreciation

When Zhuang Yu pounced out, Mingxuan was beside him. He could have stopped it, but when his gaze swept to Bu Yu, for some reason, he hesitated.

It was this moment of hesitation that allowed Zhuang Yu to rush to the martial arts platform smoothly.

Killing Han Fei with one knife is just an unexpected gain, and Meng Li's biggest gain this time is the Liuying knife that came from the epiphany, and this knife is the second of the three knife techniques taught by Yan Xingguan, the knife cutting Liuying.

The light of the knife is like a firefly, and the speed of this knife is unimaginable.

For a long time, Meng Li has practiced the three-style knife technique while practicing the knife, of which the essence of the second knife is the power of this knife, only by thoroughly understanding these skillful skills, can the power of this knife be brought into play.

He thought that this would be a long process, but he never imagined that this knife would be used from his hand in this way today.

Sure enough, combat is the best way to reach your potential!

His thoughts were like elves with wings, and just when Meng Li was immersed in joy, a loud shout woke him up.

Zhuang Yu's speed was too fast, and when Meng Li reacted, his knife had already slashed over.

It is also a seven-star knife technique, which is used by Zhuang Yu, but it is completely different.

Meng Li held the knife in both hands, and the sword technique he had just realized was about to be slashed out again, and at this moment, a green long sword suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the blade's way.

Blue Blade?

Seeing this sword, Meng Li immediately gave up the idea of drawing the sword, took two steps back, and gave up his position to Qi Heng, who rushed to the front.

The Seven Star Sword was framed by a long sword. Zhuang Yu looked at Qi Heng with a hideous expression.

"The surname Qi, I avenge my junior brother, and you have to stop me. ”

Qi Heng said lightly: "Life and death duel, fair competition, Han Fei is invincible to death, that is because his skills are not as good as others, there is nothing to complain about." ”

"You're talking lightly. ”

Qi Heng sighed lightly and said, "Zhuang Yu, retreat! The two of them signed a contract of life and death, and this matter is no longer for you to interfere in." ”

Zhuang Yu said angrily: "What kind of life and death contract, I only know that killing people pays for life!"

There is nothing wrong with killing people to pay for their lives, but it is not suitable for use here.

"You're obsessed. Qi Heng shook his head and said disappointedly: "Give you a piece of advice, step back as soon as possible, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind to you." ”

Zhuang Yu said disdainfully: "You don't have to be cowardly, it just so happens that you and I will also take this opportunity to settle the grievances together." ”

Meng Li stood behind and couldn't help but give Qi Heng a thumbs up.

At the critical moment, this Qi boss is still reliable, and he is full of hatred.

Just when the two were tense and ready to fight, there was a sudden anger from the judging platform.

"Bastard!"

I saw the four judges on the judging stage, and jumped down from the stage at the same time, and Luo Jing, who was the leader, had an angry face, it is conceivable that the roar just now must have come from his mouth.

When Qi Heng and Zhuang Yu saw the four judges, they immediately put away their blades and stood obediently in place.

Luo Jing came to the two of them, and said with an ugly face: "What kind of place should you be, how can you be allowed to mess around, can you really be treated by Jianjing Division?"

He didn't say about Jianjingfu, but about Jianjing, which already shows the seriousness of the problem.

The two people who were still arrogant just now didn't dare to speak.

"Brother Luo, don't be angry, they are all children, and it is understandable that they are ignorant. Bai also smiled and became a peacemaker.

When Zhuang Qi and the others heard this, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, especially Zhuang Yu, they never expected that Du Mu's uncle would help him speak, and immediately smiled.

It's just that before he finished laughing, he heard Bai Ye say again: "It's this Zhuang language, ignoring the contract of life and death, it's really a bit excessive." ”

Zhuang Yu's smile immediately froze on his face.

Luo Jing looked at Zhuang Yu and said with a serious expression: "Zhuang Yu, you are so bold, in your eyes, the laws and disciplines of the imperial court are gone?"

The laws and disciplines of the Southern Tang Dynasty were strictly observed, ignoring the laws and disciplines of the imperial court, and in serious cases, they could raid their homes and exterminate their families.

The Seven Star Sect, where Zhuang Yu is located, is just a second-rate sect, and compared with the behemoth of the imperial court, it is an ant-like existence.

Luo Jing, as a special envoy of the imperial court, holds the authority, and the life and death of the Seven Star Sect is just a matter of his words

Zhuang Yu realized the seriousness of the problem and said in panic: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

Luo Jing snorted coldly: "Today, I will spare you for your first offense." Remember, the contract of life and death is protected by the laws of the imperial court, and if you Seven Star Sect dare to ignore the contract, you will challenge the imperial court, and I, Luo Jing, will not be spared. ”

Zhuang Yu was frightened, and hurriedly said: "When the younger generation saw that his junior brother died, he was impulsive, and he would definitely not dare in the future." ”

Luo Jing said: "Not only you, but all of you in the Seven Star Sect are not allowed to take revenge, understand?"

"Got it, got it. ”

Luo Jing waved his hand and said in annoyance: "Take your junior brother down! You don't have to participate in this martial arts." ”

"What?" Hearing that his assessment qualification was cancelled, Zhuang Yu was stunned on the spot.

Luo Jing's eyes narrowed, and he said, "What, do you have an opinion on my decision?"

Warriors talk about blood, dare to fight, and are not afraid of life and death.

But no matter how bloody it is, it is necessary to distinguish the situation. For example, the situation that Zhuang Yu faced at this time not only involved himself, but also involved the entire Seven Star Sect, for the safety of the sect, even if he was angry, he had to endure the humiliation.

Zhuang Yu left, taking Han Fei's corpse with him when he left, without saying a word, and even Meng Li, the culprit, didn't dare to take another look, because he was afraid that he would not be able to control it.

The revenge of the sect must be avenged.

Zhuang Yu swore that one day, he would definitely make Meng Li pay the price.

Looking at Zhuang Yu's back as he gradually moved away, Meng Li touched the contract of life and death in his arms.

Although Zhuang Yu didn't say anything and promised that he would not take revenge, he sensed an extremely dangerous aura from the other party.

In the rivers and lakes, the other party will not give up.

Got rid of Zhuang Yu and drove Qi Heng off the competition platform, Luo Jing came to Meng Li and looked Meng Li up and down.

"Not bad, not bad. ”

Meng Li looked at the other party with a puzzled expression.

Bai Ye laughed and said: "Meng Li, let me introduce to you, this is the chief judge of our assessment, the military attache from the Imperial City of Zhongzhou, Lord Luo Jingluo." ”

Seeing Bai Ye's eyes, Meng Li immediately put on a flattered look.

"Little Meng Li, please meet Lord Luo, just thank Lord Luo for upholding justice. ”

Luo Jing laughed heartily and said: "It's a trivial matter, but it's not enough to worry about." As a judge of this time, Luo Mou maintained the fairness of the competition, and it was a matter of his duty. But Meng Li, it's really rare to be able to overcome two forges and win, I wonder if you are interested in serving the imperial court?"

Hearing Luo Jing's solicitation, Meng Li was stunned on the spot.

He had heard before that martial arts officials would recruit martial artists from all over the country to work for the imperial court, but that required extremely strict standards, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that there was nothing in ten thousand.

"Ahh......h

Luo Jing smiled: "Don't rush to answer me, I'll give you three days, and you will tell me the answer after three days." ”

At this time, it was a critical juncture in the assessment of Chuanwu, even if Luo Jing loved it again, he could only wait.

The four judges returned to the stage, and the contest continued.

The next competition also returned to normal. After eight games, the remaining seven forging martial artists all won.

Ten games, ten places were decided, namely Zhou Wei, Meng Li, Ming Xuan, Qi Heng, Qi Mingyu, Zhu Qian, Snake Zhengning, Du Mu, Liang Jingcheng.

It is worth mentioning that Qi Mingyu in the fifth group was not Zhuang Yu's opponent originally, but because Zhuang Yu was disqualified, he won without a fight.

Some people rejoice, some people are sad.

After all the contests were over, all the defeated warriors withdrew from the martial arts field, leaving only the ten who won.

Ming Xuan looked at Bu Yu's back when he left, and blamed Meng Li: "Brother Meng Li, I'm sorry. ”

"Brother Ming, what do you mean by this?" Hearing Ming Xuan's apology, Meng Li was inexplicable.

"When Zhuang Yu rushed to Wutai, I was not far from him, I could have stopped him, but I ......"

"Okay!" Before Ming Xuan finished speaking, Meng Li stretched out his hand to interrupt and said with a smile: "Brother Ming, don't blame yourself, the situation was in a crisis, if you want to react, I'm afraid it will take some time, besides, I'm not okay now?"

"But......" Ming Xuan didn't mean what he wanted to say, but when some words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.

"Alright, alright, don't overthink it. If you still feel sorry for it, just invite me to a drink in the future. ”

"Okay, let's make a decision. ”

When Zhou Wei heard this, he couldn't help but say, "If you want to drink, you can't forget me." ”

Du Mu looked at Zhou Wei and said lightly: "Isn't it forbidden for you to drink alcohol in Shengxingu?"

Zhou Wei touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "Drink secretly, drink secretly." ”

The crowd laughed.

Luo Jing and the others came over and issued a military order for the ten people.

There are three classes of martial arts orders, and through the martial arts assessment, you can get the Aoki military order, which is known as the third-class military order.

Meng Li held the Aoki Martial Order, looking at the big martial characters on the front of the token, and couldn't help but be excited.

For this piece of martial arts, he went through layers of hardships, and he fought his way out of the encirclement with five forging bodies, which can be called a miracle throughout the past.

With the martial arts order, Meng Li is a martial artist recognized by the imperial court and has the qualification to confer martial arts, which will be of great help to his future development.

After the distribution of the martial arts order, the martial arts assessment will officially end.

Luo Jing and the four seemed to have follow-up work to deal with, and left in a hurry after distributing the military order.

The audience in the martial arts arena has begun to leave their seats.

Zhou Wei, who had long been aroused by the wine worm, proposed to celebrate, but Meng Li had already been exhausted after experiencing a life-and-death battle, so he politely rejected his proposal.

In the evening, before the sky was completely dark, Meng Li and Bu Yu returned to Bei'anfang.

In front of the Meng family's noodle restaurant, Wang Ergou moved a bench and sat at the door waiting for the two to return.

Seeing the two appear on the street, Wang Ergou immediately greeted them.

"How?"

Meng Li took out the order and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored!"

"Is this the Martial Order?" Wang Ergou looked at the Martial Decree in Meng Li's hand, with an envious expression on his face.

Being able to get this token and become a martial artist recognized by the imperial court is the dream of all martial arts students.

Meng Li patted Wang Ergou on the shoulder and encouraged: "Old Wang, you have to believe in yourself, as long as you are willing to work hard, one day you can also get this token." ”

Wang Ergou burst into tears with excitement, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Lao Wang?

What the hell is this called.

Today, not only did he get the martial order, but he also understood the knife and cut the fireflies, Meng Li was in a good mood, and he personally cooked a large pot of fish noodle soup for them.

While eating noodles, Wang Ergou asked about his next plan. Meng Li only said three words, open the martial arts hall.

If you want to open a martial arts hall, it is not a simple matter, in addition to the qualification of martial arts, various related procedures are also very cumbersome.

Fortunately, this is the goal they have set a long time ago, and Wang Ergou has already collected relevant information some time ago, and after careful division, he has summarized a set of effective action plans.

The programme is twofold.

One is to go through the various procedures for opening the museum, and the other is to prepare a tool for the martial arts hall.

These two aspects need someone to run, and they are solved by Wang Ergou and Meng Li respectively.

Hearing that Meng Li was going to prepare the martial arts hall utensils, Miss Bu suddenly quit.

"You're gone, what about the noodle shop?"

In the past two days of assessment, she finally tricked Meng Li and asked him to increase the number of fish noodle soup from 100 bowls per day to 300 bowls.

Why didn't you do it for a day, and people were going to run away again?

Is this noodle shop still open?

Meng Li signaled Bu Yu to be calm for a while, and said with a smile: "I'm leaving, isn't there still you!"

"Me?" Bu Yu said with a sinking face, "What the hell do you want to fight?"

Meng Li hooked his hand and said mysteriously: "Let me ask you, is my fish noodle soup delicious?"

"It's delicious!" Bu Yu nodded.

"Do you want to be able to eat it at any time?"

"And this kind of good thing?"

"Then you can eat as much as you want?"

"Yes!" Miss Bu had an ominous premonition, looked at Meng Li vigilantly, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Meng Li smiled and said, "I decided to teach you the craft of fish noodle soup." What do you think?"

"Not good!" Bu Yu rolled his eyes and sneered: "I said, how can there be such a good thing in the world, it turns out that you want Miss Ben to work for you." ”

"You can't say that. Meng Li immediately corrected: "This noodle restaurant is our common effort, you do more, you are also generating income for yourself." Don't you want to increase the number of fish noodle soup to 300 bowls? As long as you learn this craft, not to mention 300 bowls, 400 bowls, 500 bowls will be fine. ”

"What you said is not unreasonable!" Bu Yu pursed his mouth, and he was a little moved.

Seeing that Bu Yu's heart was moved, Meng Li worked even harder to bewitch.

"If you think about it, these are all white flowers, and with this silver, you can buy whatever you want, and eat whatever you want. ”

"You can't pour it, it's a waste!"

Meng Li rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Then what do you mean......"

Bu Yu gestured and said, "Since you are so begging, then Miss Ben will reluctantly agree to you!"

Next, Meng Li wrote down the cooking method of the fish noodle soup on a piece of paper and handed it to Bu Yu.

The essence of fish noodle soup lies in the soup base, which Meng Li prepares every day. All Bu Yu had to learn was the skills of mixing noodles and the heat of cooking noodles.

Bu Yu already has cooking skills, which is not difficult for her, she only needs to be familiar with it.

After a day off, the three of them began to divide labor the next day, Bu Yu stayed to look after the store, and Wang Ergou and Meng Li ran two processes respectively.

The department responsible for managing the martial arts hall is Jianjing Mansion, and the application for opening a martial arts hall naturally has to go to Jianjing Mansion, Meng Li has already greeted Bai Ye before, and Wang Ergou naturally doesn't have to worry about it.

On his own side, he ran down in one day and gained little.

After a busy day, when he returned to the mansion in the evening, he was already physically and mentally exhausted, looking at Bu Yu, who was still refreshed after a busy day in the noodle restaurant, Meng Li couldn't cry or laugh.

"How's business going in the store today?"

Bu Yu stretched out five fingers and said proudly: "Sold this number!"

"Fifty bowls, that's good. ”

Meng Li's judgment is well-founded.

Today, Bu Yu is staying in the noodle restaurant alone, even cooking noodles and taking care of the guests, and it is already good to be able to cook fifty bowls of noodles in a day.

Who knew that Bu Yu rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "What fifty bowls, it's five hundred bowls!"

After a busy day, Meng Li, who had a dry mouth, was about to drink saliva, and as soon as it reached his mouth, he sprayed it out again.

"What? Five hundred bowls! You're not mistaken, right?"

Miss Bu clasped her hands in front of her chest and said triumphantly: "You don't know how talented Miss Ben is!"

Next, after Bu Yu's explanation, Meng Li finally knew how this eldest lady sold five hundred bowls!

It turned out that before she opened for business, she had set up a table at the kitchen door, and she was only responsible for cooking the noodles, and the cooked noodles were placed on the table and the customers paid for them.

Not only that, but there is also a large frame next to the table, and the bowl must be put into the frame before leaving. Otherwise, don't even think about coming back in next time.

Hearing Bu Yu's improved business methods, Meng Li was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but stretch out a thumbs up.

"Admire, admire, let customers clean up by themselves, you are the first in the past!"

Bu Yu said angrily: "You are embarrassed to say that the reason why Miss Ben is like this is not because she has no choice." But then again, our noodle restaurant does need to hire two more people. ”

"Miss Bu is right, no, I brought you all the people. ”

As soon as Bu Yu's words fell, Liu Fengliu's voice came in from outside.

The two looked out the door, and saw the self-proclaimed Liu Fengliu swaggering in, followed by a pair of beautiful maids like flowers and jade.

"How did you get in?"

Meng Li looked at Liu Fengliu with a puzzled expression, he had obviously closed the door when he came in just now, and the key was only available to the three of them.

"I let him in. ”

Wang Ergou walked out from behind the pair of beautiful maids, looking helpless.

When I came back from Jianjing Mansion just now, I happened to meet Liu Fengliu. He ran the formalities this day, and it was already hard enough, but he was nagged all the way by this merry young man, and his head was about to explode.

Meng Li saw Wang Ergou and asked, "How is your day?"

Wang Ergou took out a certificate with "Martial Arts Hall Authorization" written on it and handed it to Meng Lidao: "After running for a day, I finally got it done, as long as we determine the name of the martial arts hall and arrange the facilities of the martial arts hall, we can open the museum." ”

"Well done!" Meng Li was first overjoyed, and then frowned again: "Your side is finished, but my side is still a mess, and this martial arts hall doesn't know when it will be able to do it." ”

"What's going on?" asked Wang Ergou.

Meng Li smiled bitterly and told him that he had gone to several markets today and had not bought the martial arts equipment.

After Wang Ergou heard this, before he could react, he heard Liu Dashao laugh and said, "What should I do, isn't it just to buy a martial arts hall? ”

Meng Li asked, "Do you have a way?"

Liu Fengliu said with a smile: "Our Liu family's business is all over the Jieshui City, and all walks of life are involved, among which there is a team of workers who eat the bowl of rice in the martial arts hall, wait for me to inform me tomorrow, and let them arrange this courtyard." ”

When Meng Li heard this, he hurriedly threw this hot potato to Liu Dashao.

"In this case, the matter of renovating the martial arts hall will be handed over to you, how much money will be spent, you tell Bu Yu. ”

Now the accounts of the noodle restaurant are all managed by Bu Yu, and he and Wang Ergou are just taking some silver for self-defense.

Liu Fengliu said proudly: "What kind of silver is there to talk about this little thing." ”

Meng Li waved his hand and said: "Don't be like this, my brother is settling accounts, I really don't want to owe your Liu family any more favors." ”

"Well, anyway, these days, the noodle shop has earned a lot of silver, and this bit of silver is nothing to you. Seeing Meng Li's resolute attitude, Liu Fengliu no longer insisted.

Meng Li pointed to the maidservant behind Liu Fengliu and said, "Also, these two girls are also transferred from your house! Their wages must also come from the noodle shop, and you can't pay for them." ”

Liu Fengliu couldn't help but laugh and said, "As you like!"

Bu Yu came to the two maidservants, took their little hands and said with a smile: "The two sisters came at the right time, and I was still worried about the five hundred bowls just now!"

Meng Li was stunned and said, "What, you haven't brushed those bowls yet?"

Bu Yu said angrily: "Aren't you talking nonsense, I can brush it by myself?" said and stretched out his hand to point at everyone, and said arrogantly: "Today, none of you want to run." ”

There was a wail from the crowd......

In the bedroom, Meng Li, who had just returned from washing the dishes, collapsed on the bed without love, seemed to realize something, and quickly bounced off the bed again.

"I almost forgot, I haven't practiced my knife today. ”

Knife practice is a task that cannot be touched every day and must be completed.

Grab a wooden knife and walk out the door.

An hour later, Meng Li, who walked back to the room again, was really exhausted.

Meng Li has a habit that the more tired he is, the more he can't rest.

Supporting his tired body, he came to the bed with his legs crossed.

Spit out the old and absorb the new, and the diligent work was opened, and with a crispy and numb feeling, Meng Li's body gradually regained its vitality.

After finishing his hard work, Meng Li was a fierce man again, came to the desk, poured himself a glass of water, and was about to drink it, when his eyes were suddenly attracted by two cheats.

"How did I forget about you. ”

Meng Li slapped his forehead, put down the water glass, and took the two cheats in front of him.

These two secret books are the mantle inheritance that was inherited from the people of the Hundred Channels in the Aoba Secret Realm that day.

"Well, I don't know how the people of the Hundred Channels are doing now?"

While sighing in his heart, Meng Li's expression became extremely serious, since he had taken over the mantle of others, he naturally couldn't be perfunctory.

Placing the "Jade Rune Sutra" and "Spirit Recipe" in front of him, Meng Li reached into his arms and took out the jade plaque that was placed close to him.

This jade plaque that records lazy skills can be regarded as the most important treasure of Meng Li now, and it is estimated that if the news of this treasure is leaked, it may also cause a popular bloody case in the rivers and lakes.
