"What about you, give up if you don't try?" Meng Li looked at Mei Changkai and said indifferently: "I can give you a chance, as long as you can escape from this courtyard, I can consider letting you live." ”

Mei Changkai saw Meng Li's cold face, how could he not know what the other party wanted to do. He was sure that the end of his escape would be beaten half to death.

did not tempt Mei Changkai, which made Meng Li, who could not take the opportunity to punish Mei Changkai, a little disappointed.

Of course, he could beat Mei Changkai violently for no reason, but seeing that the two little girls couldn't bear it, he gave up the idea.

It can also be seen from this that the Luo family sisters still have good hearts.

With the hardest problems solved, the rest is easy.

Steward Wang found two ropes out of nowhere, tied Mei Changkai and Liu Datou into zongzi, and waited for the arrival of the government.

Li Zan was in awe of Meng Li's name as a demon exterminator, and was very attentive, wanting to invite him into the living room to make friends.

But because of the matter of the Luo family sisters, Meng Li had a deep prejudice against the Li family master, who was extremely afraid of gods and ghosts, and said a perfunctory sentence, and then took the Luo family sisters to leave.

On the way back, the two little girls couldn't help but cast curious glances at Meng Li.

Meng Li was a little embarrassed by them, and said with a wry smile: "You can ask whatever you want, I promise to know everything!"

Luo Ying said curiously: "Childe, what kind of demon slayer master are you?"

"That's just me casually lying to them. Meng Li smiled, his expression revealing a little cunning.

"Childe, you're so bad!" Luo Ying chuckled, and after laughing, a new question arose.

"If Childe doesn't know the art of eliminating demons, how did the Li family's problem come about?"

Meng Li smiled slightly and only said two words.

"Coincidence!"

What the?

Luo Ying was stunned, looking at Meng Li's back in a daze, until Luo Xia took her hand and woke her up.

Is it really a coincidence?

In this world, there are not too many coincidences.

Many of the seemingly accidental developments are inevitably linked.

The reason why Meng Li was able to see through this scam was not only because he saw through Mei Changkai's identity from the beginning, but also because of his strong knowledge reserves.

It is conceivable that if he didn't even know about the Devil May Cry Stone, how could he trace it back to the source?

Strange Flowers and Stones

It was thanks to this strange book that Meng Li would know about the Devil May Cry Stone.

Later, Meng Li also sorted out this matter and speculated such a conclusion:

Three years ago, the Li family was killed, and resentment grew, and as a result, the Devil May Cry Stone buried in the stones was affected and made a sound.

Li Zan was frightened and invited the Changming holy monk of Changdeng Temple to exorcise evil spirits.

In the process of doing this, the holy monk Chang Ming discovered the existence of the Devil May Cry Stone, and once and for all, he thought of a way to use the Devil May Cry Stone to absorb the grievances of the Dark Courtyard.

The practice of opening the altar in the event closed the door of the dark courtyard, and the forbidden spirit pattern was painted on the door.

Because of the erosion of wind and frost, three years later, the spirit pattern on the gate was broken, and the sound of the Devil May Cry Stone came out again.

So there is a later story.

Of course, these are Meng Li's guesses, and they are his guesses based on Li Yan's previous narrative and the situation in the dark courtyard.

When there was an abnormality in the Li Mansion, Li Zan, who was extremely respectful of ghosts and gods, came to Changdeng Temple as soon as possible, but because of the death of the holy monk Changming, no one could help him.

In desperation, he could only seek help from other aspects, and at this time, Liu Datou entered his field of vision.

And then there's the next thing.

By the time Meng Li cleared his mind, they had already arrived at the martial arts hall.

Meng Li and the Luo family sisters came back together, which made Wang Ergou a little surprised.

The Luo family sisters seemed to have discovered nothing and consciously started the work of the martial arts hall, Wang Ergou came to Meng Li's side and said something that Meng Li almost forgot.

"The tribute team from Xizhou has passed safely from Jieshui City. ”

Meng Li was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "This is very good!"

Wang Ergou said with a serious expression: "When the tribute team passed through Jieshui City, a father and son stayed, and they heard about your deeds in solving the bandit problem and wanted to meet you?"

Meng Li hesitated for a moment and said, "Help me reject them, Bai is also gone, what we need now is to keep a low profile." ”

The so-called low-key, it is understandable why they don't do it.

Wang Ergou smiled bitterly and said: "I did the same, but those two didn't give up, and the younger one even wanted to join the Wooden Sword Martial Arts Gym." ”

New changes bring new risks, and what seems like a small thing often leads to more problems.

Meng Li didn't want to rest on his laurels, he just wanted to fade his figure during the time when Bai Ye was away, and it was best to let Feng Yu forget about him for a while.

The tribute team from Xizhou to Zhongzhou is led by the subordinate institutions of the Jianjing Division along the way, and although the Jianjing Mansion in Jieshui City is only one of them, it will also pay special attention to the situation of the tribute team.

The people of the tribute team stayed in Jieshui City, and as the current person in charge of Jianjing Mansion, it was impossible for Feng Yu not to pay attention.

In this case, his wooden sword martial arts hall naturally had to hide as far as he could.

"No!"

Meng Li did not hesitate, and instantly said what he thought was the wisest choice.

Don't collect, don't collect, absolutely don't.

Meng Li meditated silently in his heart, feeling admiration for his wisdom, and when he looked up, he saw that Wang Ergou's serious expression had not faded, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Xue Bawu has been here today!"

"What is he here for?"

The name Xue Bawu made Meng Li tremble inexplicably.

Maybe it's because of Xue Baiqi's relationship, maybe it's because this old man is too strict. In short, after Meng Li heard this name, a chill arose in his heart.

For this famous iron-faced captain in Jieshui City, Wang Ergou is also afraid of a tiger, especially after hearing about this person's iron-blooded deeds, this fear is even more profound.

Xue Bawu's harshness is not only for his family, but also reflected in the management of the army, in order to clean up military discipline, he killed nearly 100 soldiers in one day, not only the sergeant of the army was silent, but the people of Jieshui were in an uproar, I heard that the city guard who was taking a nap in bed at the time, after hearing the news, he fell directly from the bed in fright.

This Xue Commander, but the master who kills people without blinking, is still the cultivation of the Nine Forgings of the Refining Body, and the first person in the Boundary Water City to be a proper martial artist. If he is targeted, and his head is still not his own, then it is difficult to say.

In the final analysis, Wang Ergou and Meng Li's thoughts coincide. For this old man, it is best to hide as far as you can.

He didn't say anything, just walked around the yard. ”

"Circled?" Meng Li was a little confused, what is this for?

Wang Ergou smiled bitterly: "His expression when he left seemed to be quite satisfied, maybe he will come again." ”

Meng Li silently recited three words in his heart: Don't.

Jianjing House.

The room that originally belonged to Bai Ye ushered in a new owner at this time.

Feng Yu sat at his desk with an official document in his hand. This official document bears a portrait of a large-headed monk in rudimentary brushwork.

Liu Datou's wanted obituary!

"This Liu Datou is really more than enough to succeed!"

Feng Yu slapped the official document on the table, his face extremely ugly.

Liu Datou has a deep relationship with him, and can be said to be half of his subordinates, and he has also sought his consent in advance for the scam of the Li Mansion, the purpose of which is to pave the way for the next plan.

But he didn't expect that this plan had already encountered problems after just taking a small step.

Touch!

Feng Yu, who had a gloomy face, slapped his palm on the corner of the table, breaking the corner of the table on the spot.

The most hateful thing is not Liu Datou, but Meng Li, if he hadn't been nosy, things would not have developed to this point.

Feng Yu walked around the room, and finally returned to his seat. When I saw an official document on the table with the word "temporary" written on it, I suddenly thought about it.

"I was going to let it go first, but since you don't know what to do, don't blame me for being rude to you. ”

At night, the Shaw Martial Arts Hall.

Xiao Zicong, who sent Ji Xiaoqing away, sat alone in front of the door, closing his eyes and pondering.

Bai was also driven away, and the era of the Xifu Horse Gang was coming, but at this critical moment, Liu Datou had a problem.

"It's Meng Li again!"

Xiao Zicong sighed, got up, and walked to the study.

On the mahogany desk in the study, there are complete sets of four treasures of the study.

Xiao Zicong took a pen and sharpened the ink, took a piece of white paper, and wrote two big characters on it.

"Raw!"

"Die!"

Black and white, live or die!

"What a difficult choice!"

Xiao Zicong sighed, looked at the word "sheng", and for his own ambition, he decided to try again.

Although Meng Li and the Luo family sisters didn't say anything, the tacit understanding between them that could only be understood and not spoken was unconsciously emanated.

The next day, Wang Ergou stayed in the martial arts hall all morning, and finally couldn't stand the influence of this subtle atmosphere, so he found an opportunity when no one was around, pulled Meng Li aside, and asked the reason.

When Meng Li and the Luo family sisters entered the door together yesterday, he felt a little strange, and after a morning, he was more sure of this judgment.

But in the end, Meng Li just smiled slightly, not saying a word.

Although the Li family's mission process was a little funny, it didn't reach the point where he had to hide it. The reason why Meng Li kept silent was because this matter involved the Daoluo sisters.

Today, the Wooden Sword Martial Arts Hall no longer takes on tasks, but shifts the focus of development to Chuanwu.

The ten apprentices who sweated in the martial arts arena were not only the first batch of apprentices in the Wooden Sword Martial Arts Gym, but also the main force in the future, and Meng Li's first goal was to train all of them to become martial artists.

There is no doubt that the team of the martial arts hall needs to be accumulated.

Meng Li's initial plan was three years, and after three years, he hoped to see first-class martial artists among these little guys.

In three years, from nothing to a first-class martial artist, even if it is only the first time to enter the fifth forging, this will be a very difficult thing. doesn't have a one-in-a-million talent, and he doesn't even dare to think about it.

The reason why Meng Li set this goal was because he had already seen hope in this group of people.

His gaze turned, and he finally fixed on a taller figure, which was the first teenager to join the martial arts hall, his name was Xie Xiaoming.

At this time, Xie Xiaoming no longer practiced boxing with everyone, but carried a wooden knife and practiced alone in the corner.

When Xie Xiaoming saw Meng Li's gaze, he immediately put away the wooden knife and ran towards Meng Li excitedly.

"Teacher, teacher, I have learned the knife book you handed me yesterday!"

"Already learned?"

Looking at Xie Xiaoming with an excited face, Meng Li was a little surprised, the knife book he handed over to Xie Xiaoming yesterday was the knife practice experience he had summarized in the past two years. Although they are some of the most basic knife techniques, for Xie Xiaoming, who has not been learning knives for less than a few days, it is still a bit exaggerated to learn them all in one day.

Xie Xiaoming nodded, holding a wooden knife in his hand, with an eager expression.

"You practice it and show me. ”

It's like a child who has made achievements and can't help but show off to his parents. Meng Li saw Xiao Ming's careful thoughts.

"Yes!"

Xie Xiaoming responded loudly, his expression changed, and he suddenly became extremely solemn, only to see him raise the wooden knife flat, and practice the knife technique he had learned before in one move.
