Volume 1 A Hundred Years of Luck in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 31 Meng Jiangxi was killed
Practicing two exercises at the same time, although it is a bit hard, but compared to the continuation of life, this hard work is nothing?
Meng Li held the old book with mottled yellow pages, and said with love: "Old Uncle Meng called this secret book nameless exercises, saying that my father found it out of nowhere, and it has never had a name, but according to what the master just said, this peculiar exercise should not be nameless, master, you are well-informed, it is better to give this exercise a name!"
Yan Xingguan suddenly said like a dream: "Although this exercise can make you reborn, it still requires you to be diligent and constantly temper your body with sweat, if you want me to see it, call it diligent work!"
"Diligent work?"
Meng Li really wanted to slap himself hard, obviously he had the lesson of laziness, how could he make such a low-level mistake?
Meng Li looked at Yan Xingguan with a desperate expression on his face, "Master, your ability to name is really ......."
Yan Xingguan, who had already unconsciously adjusted his mentality, smiled proudly and said, "How is it, Master, is my ability to come up with a name very good?"
Meng Li smiled, with an indescribable expression on his face, and what he originally wanted to say was these four words: indescribable!
"Master, isn't the name of diligence a little ......" Meng Li stopped talking, but the meaning was very simple.
Yan Xingguan, who thought that his authority was being challenged, suddenly widened his eyes, and said with an unkind gaze: "What, do you think this name for the teacher is not good?"
Meng Li was so frightened that he waved his hand and said aggrievedly: "Master, how can you think like this, the apprentice just thinks that the names of diligence and laziness are similar, and they can't fully reflect Master's talent in this regard." ”
The so-called aspect is the aspect of taking the name.
Yan Xingguan, who was praised violently, said refreshedly: "Even if you can speak, but the name is so decided, being simple and straightforward will only be good for you, remember, you must be low-key." ”
Low-key? I haven't seen you low-key in my life!
Listening to Yan Xingguan's earnest teachings, Meng Li didn't mention how funny it was in his heart, of course, he didn't dare to say these words in front of the other party. I could only bite the bullet and say respectfully, "What the master has taught me."
Yan Xingguan waved his hand and said, "Okay, you continue to practice the knife!"
Meng Li pointed to the cheats and said, "What about this diligence?"
Yan Xingguan said: "Of course, you have to cultivate together, the sooner you cultivate this exercise, the more it will help you." ”
The cultivation method of diligent gong is very simple, even simpler than simple lazy gong, just follow the special method written on the exercise, stimulate the tired body, and gradually improve the physique, so that it can be transformed.
It is not for nothing that Yan Xingguan named the word "diligence" for this exercise. Meng Li's cultivation of the sword technique consumes a lot of physical strength, and it is a good time to practice diligence.
After familiarizing himself with the exercises, Meng Li picked up the wooden knife and began to practice diligent skills while swinging the knife.
Meng Li started to practice the knife tonight, starting from the basics, according to the meaning of Yan Xingguan, he had to swing the knife at least 10,000 times a day until he found the best feeling of the knife, and turned it into an instinct that did not need to think.
Knife after knife, the knife is not bad. The strictness of Yan Xingguan is truly reflected in this, and every time Meng Li swings a knife, he needs to strictly abide by the standards he has set, and he almost can't do it at all.
Severe to the point of almost perverted requirements, constantly repeating stereotypical and boring movements, under high pressure, the consumption intensified, but just a hundred knives, Meng Li's arms began to soften, and when this sour and soft attacked, there was also a nourishing power that appeared with it, the two clashed, crispy and numb, making his arms glow with new vitality again.
Diligent Gong is only an auxiliary exercise, and there is no obvious improvement in force, but the help it brings to cultivation is immeasurable, at this time, Meng Li has not yet realized the true meaning of Diligent Gong, but this does not prevent him from cultivating with it.
The night passed quietly in the process of Meng Li's continuous swinging of the knife, and before he knew it, the sky was already bright, and Meng Li, who had barely completed the 10,000th knife, could no longer support it after Yan Xingguan left, and lay on the ground drowsy.
As Yan Xingguan said before, practicing knives is a physical work, and one night's cultivation has already exhausted Meng Li, but after completing the goal, he did not stop there, and practiced simple lazy skills again with his spirit, and after running the true qi in his body for a week, Meng Li felt slightly better, and then regardless of the smell of sweat all over his body, he fell asleep on the bed.
This night, Meng Li slept until noon, and it was not until there was a quarrel outside that he woke up from his deep sleep.
"You can't do this, my father is wronged, he can never be a murderer. ”
"If you don't have evidence, you will arrest people indiscriminately, I want to appeal, and I want the government to sue you!
The sound of the quarrel seemed to come from the side, and when he was half asleep, Meng Li seemed to hear the voices of Meng Rou and Aunt Liu in the midst of cursing.
Meng Li, who already had a string in his heart and was vigilant when he slept, jumped up from the bed like an electric shock after hearing the quarrel.
"What happened?"
Meng Li didn't dare to delay, and immediately rushed out of the door, and then was stunned by the scene in front of him.
On weekdays, the village road is extremely cold, but at this time it is crowded with people. In the courtyard of Mengjiangxi, there were two strangers standing.
"Is that them?"
Meng Li saw the two officials who entered the village last night, and then looked at Meng Jiangxi, who had been controlled by them at this time, and his expression became more and more solemn.
"Do they suspect that the murderer is Uncle Meng?
Meng Li had a gloomy face, and was about to rush up to question him in person, but after thinking about it, he still stopped.
"No, I can't be impulsive!"
Among all of them, only Meng Li knows best, the murderer who killed Meng Huaiyang can never be Meng Jiangxi, if those two officials really came for this, they will inevitably return in vain in the end, but he needs to be careful.
Two consecutive days of cultivation have caused a slight change in Meng Li's body, this change is indistinguishable in the eyes of ordinary people, but for some martial artists with a keen sense of smell, it may not be impossible to see the clues.
Meng Li stood in the crowd, looking at Liu Hui's mother and daughter who blocked the door with their bodies, ready to wait and see what happened, if they really dared to wronged Old Uncle Meng, even if he fought for his life, he would give them a profound lesson.
The courtyard of Meng Jiangxi's house is not big, but it is very warm, Zhang Song stood in the courtyard, looking at the wife and daughter who blocked the gate with their bodies, and his mood was very complicated.
It is said that the people do not fight with the officials, but in fact, most of the ordinary people are sincerely afraid of even saying a word to them, if it is not for the life and death of their families, even if they borrow a few of their courage, they dare not block their way.
Zhang Song, who has always been very patient with the old and weak women and children, explained softly: "We take Meng Jiangxi away now, it's just a normal arrest procedure, if it is determined that the case has nothing to do with him, he will naturally be released." ”
Wang Ergou stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhang Song and said: "Since you keep saying that you are wronged, then don't be afraid, this Lord Zhang is the head catcher of the Water Mansion and is known for handling cases impartially. ”
Hearing the last sentence, Liu Hui's mother and daughter's emotions were obviously calmed down, the reason why they were so excited was that they were afraid that the other party would be beaten into a trick, and the government's black-hearted methods have never been less, such as a theft case that occurred in the village next door last year, the official who handled the case was sentenced to death in order to close the case quickly, and the suspect was in pain after breaking one hand, so he could only admit the crime. But who doesn't know in these ten miles and eight villages, with that person's well-known honesty, he would never dare to be greedy.
If they really let them take people away, no one knows what will happen.
"What you say now sounds good, who knows if there will be one thing in front and one thing in the back, are there still fewer of us here who have been deceived by your government?" Meng Rou pulled the two doors with both hands, and tears flowed uncontrollably from her face, her father reassured her last night, how could she become like this after a night?
What a stubborn little girl!
Zhang Song looked at Meng Rou, a slender and weak girl, but with a heart that was diametrically opposed to her appearance. Let's just say that this stubborn temperament that doesn't eat oil and salt is rare among boys of the same age.
He sighed lightly and said: "I can't deny what you said, in fact, the phenomenon of collusion between officials and businessmen and officials is not uncommon, which is also the sorrow of those of us who are on errands, but you can rest assured that this case involves human life, and no one dares to engage in favoritism, which is also the last bottom line for us to rely on the water government." ”
Human life is as big as the sky. In fact, a case involving human life is not only the bottom line of the local government, but also a face tightly guarded by the Southern Tang Dynasty. The mixture of fish and dragons brought about by the balance of forces of all parties in the officialdom will inevitably cause some bad influences, and this influence has long since developed into a situation in which the tail cannot be broken. Emperor Zhiwen, who was well aware of the stakes, secretly conveyed the precepts about human life cases to the state capitals as early as when he was young. If you dare to think about this matter, no matter how big or small your official position is, you will be severely punished.
If you can't solve the murder case, it's fine, but if you want to use it to ignore people's lives, you can't do it. As far as Zhang Song knows, when Emperor Zhiwen handed down this commandment, there were not a few officials who lost their heads because of this, not to mention those who were stripped of their official uniforms.
