Volume 1 A Hundred Years of Luck in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 130 Hitting the Pillar and Knocking the Door
Leaving home, swimming in the rivers and lakes, Meng Li, who was full of ambition, when he came to the town of Shui Shui, he never expected to hear a rumor that made him cry and laugh.
"When Zhang Zhutou was borrowed from the knife, he was really arresting criminals?"
If it hadn't been for the fact that I borrowed a knife from my subordinates later, I, Brother Zhang, would have been seriously injured by Wang Ping. ”
There are many people who arrest criminals and are finally injured by criminals every year, but an unwarranted disaster like Zhang Song is a rare miracle.
"It's okay! It's okay!" Meng Li patted his chest and complained: "When my master borrowed the knife, he didn't know how to understand the situation first, and he almost killed Zhang Zhutou." ”
Wang Ergou exclaimed in surprise and said excitedly: "So, those two knives were really borrowed by the Venerable Master?"
Meng Li nodded, and said with a wry smile: "Where is Zhang Zhutou now, I passed by Shuizhen this time, just to return the knife." ”
Wang Ergou said: "After Brother Zhang's knife was borrowed by the respected teacher, he suffered a big blow, and now he is depressed and is recuperating at home. ”
Meng Li secretly confessed his guilt, took off the steel knife wrapped in white cloth behind his back, and said to Wang Ergou: "I have to trouble Brother Wang to lead the way once." ”
Wang Ergou got up and left, and said with a smile as he walked: "What's this, you come with me." ”
Meng Li followed Wang Ergou to Zhang's house, the two chatted on the way, Meng Li told Wang Ergou about his upcoming trip to Jieshui City, so that he never thought that Wang Ergou, who had a dream of rivers and lakes, insisted on moving forward together after hearing him say that he was leaving, so that Meng Li, who felt that he saw a childlike boy, couldn't cry or laugh.
However, it is not a good thing to walk with Wang Ergou, although Wang Ergou's strength is a little worse, and he is still a third forging, but his life experience and experience in exploring intelligence will provide Meng Li with a lot of convenience.
Meng Li had never been to Jieshui City, and when he got there, he didn't know what would happen, and having such a "jack-of-all-trades" to help him discuss and deal with it would make it easier for him to gain a firm foothold in Jieshui City.
The Zhang family is a well-known sword family in the water town, and it belongs to the first-class family in the water town, although it is not as generous as the Li family, but its influence in the water town is by no means comparable to the Li family.
The Zhang family, which can already be called "illustrious family" in the water town, is naturally not a place where you can enter if you want to. However, with Wang Ergou leading the way, all this is not a problem.
Wang Ergou's family lives near Zhang's house, and Wang Ergou and Zhang Song are friends who have played together since childhood, although Wang Ergou's background is a little worse, but the Zhang family doesn't care, but is very friendly to him, especially Zhang Song's father, who is very happy with his clever mouth.
Wang Ergou walked into Zhang's house with Meng Li, did not attract the attention of others, but went straight to Zhang Song's bedroom.
The three of them met in the bedroom, and Zhang Song, who was forcibly borrowed by Yan Xingguan, after seeing Meng Li, his eyes breathed fire, and he couldn't wait to eat each other raw, until Meng Li took out the steel knife behind him that cast the spirit once, which calmed the anger in his heart.
Zhang Song's two swords had been destroyed by Yan Xingguan in that battle.
Yan Xingguan didn't want to owe Zhang Song, so before leaving, he deliberately explained to Meng Li and asked him to find a good knife and return it to Zhang Song. Originally, Meng Li was still a little embarrassed, thinking that he would let Cheng Bin help him fight if he really couldn't do it, but he didn't expect Boss Li to help him solve this problem.
Boss Li's steel knife is a treasure knife for casting spirits, and Cheng Bin once mentioned it when forging this knife, saying that this knife is called Liegang Knife, which is an extremely common treasure knife in a treasure casting.
Immortal forging is one of the three major systems, and the same as the rune of the rune, the forging of treasures should also pay attention to a method and method, and there is a certain production process and material ratio.
The forging recipe of the fierce steel knife is almost one of the most widely circulated in the rivers and lakes.
Meng Li witnessed the whole process of forging this knife, and really fought with Boss Li who was holding a steel knife, and had a deep understanding of the power of this knife.
When Zhang Song saw the Liegang knife, he was overjoyed, snatched it from Meng Li's hand, and caressed it inch by inch in his arms, looking intoxicated and unable to put it down.
As a swordsman, how could Zhang Song not understand knives? No matter how good the family heirloom "treasure knife" he borrowed from Yan Xingguan was, it was only two mortal irons, and I don't know how many times worse than the fierce steel knives that had been cast at one time.
Zhang Song, who realized that he had made a lot of money, swept away his previous malaise and resentment, immediately greeted Meng Li with a smile, and personally prepared tea for them.
Wang Ergou drank tea and told the news that they were about to leave.
Zhang Song seemed to have expected the arrival of this day, and he was not surprised when he heard it, but he reminded Meng Li and asked him to go to the mansion before leaving, and asked him to find the mirror document inside to complete the martial arts book.
Those who learn martial arts need to be registered, which is the rule of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Due to the special circumstances, Meng Li did not register the martial arts register in the town of Xiangshui. If you don't know the roots, it's just a water town, and once you go out, it will be difficult to withstand the layers of inspection by the local government.
After all, for martial artists, this martial book is a face recognized by the imperial court, and only by registering the martial arts register can they participate in the martial arts assessment authorized by local governments for martial artists.
Bidding farewell to Zhang Song, Wang Ergou and Meng Li parted ways, the former went to prepare for the long trip, and the latter went to the government to register the martial arts.
Relying on the government office of Water Town, Meng Li is not the first time to come, but he has never entered.
On the right side of the main wall of the government office, there is a wall used for publicity, on which the wanted lists of the government and local governments at all levels are posted, and the rewards that Meng Li completed before are all tasks received here.
I first went to the public notice wall to take a look at it as a memory, and then went to the door and gently knocked on the door of the government.
As a local government, the threshold of the water government is naturally not short, and there are several different rules just by knocking on the door, each with its own method according to different intentions. In addition to the well-known drumming and ringing of grievances, there are also slamming posts and slamming doors.
The so-called slapstick buckle door is a special way for warriors to visit the door.
There is also an iron gate next to the main gate of the government office, and a wooden stake stands in front of the door. When a warrior knocks on the door, he must vigorously impact the stake, which is knocked away and hits the iron door. The government will judge the level of the warrior with this sound, and give reception according to the situation, which is also the unique treatment of the warrior.
Sometimes, the transmission distance of the sound of hitting the pillar will become the "medal" of the warriors and be talked about.
It is said that when Xue Zheng founded the martial arts hall in the same year, he struck the pillar once, and the first-class martial artist was full of true energy, and he actually sent the sound of slamming the door into the backyard, which attracted Ling Shou to receive him personally.
Meng Li came to the iron gate, raised his kick, and kicked the flying stake.
The wooden stake hit the iron gate, making a muffled bang, and it was even transmitted into the backyard of the government.
There was a commotion in the mansion, and after a while, a middle-aged man in an official robe walked out, and behind the man, there were more than a dozen fast catchers who came out, all looking at Meng Li with surprised eyes.
Meng Li saw a familiar figure in the crowd and nodded, and this person was Zhang Song's little henchman Qi He.
Meng Li's identity as a martial artist is a little-known little secret in Shui Town. In addition to the mirror clerk who is in charge of martial affairs, the only people who know this secret are Zhang Song and Qi He.
For Qi He, Meng Li, who broke through the first-class martial artist in just two years, is almost his unattainable existence, and he is also another person he admires extremely besides Zhang Song. It's an idol-like existence.
Qi He, who had never said a word to Meng Li, saw Meng Li greeting him at this time, his cheeks immediately flushed, and he was speechless with excitement.
Meng Li looked at the middle-aged man who walked out of the mansion first, raised his hand and clenched his fists, and gave a martial salute. Respectfully, he said, "Meet your lordship." ”
Meng Li has been in the town for nearly two years, and he has a certain understanding of the officials of the local government, more or less. The person standing in front of him at this time was not the local commander Liang Shouming, but Bu Ji, the mirror clerk who was in charge of martial arts affairs.
Seeing this "top boss" who is in charge and is currently in charge, even if Meng Li is arrogant, he has to restrain his posture and show due respect for the court, not to mention that he himself is a person who pays great attention to etiquette.
Today's era is the era of civil and military co-governance, and martial artists bow their heads to the imperial court, not only will they not be criticized by their "colleagues" in the rivers and lakes, but they will be greatly appreciated and regarded as martial virtues.
After all, the martial artists can be outside the world today, thanks to the vigorous development of martial arts by the imperial court, and now in the rivers and lakes, ninety percent of the martial artists are benefiting from this move, and they are all grateful to the imperial court.
