The current martial arts hall in Beicheng District, except for the Tianhua martial arts hall, the other martial arts halls are barely maintained, and there is no martial arts hall that can handle it.

Now that the Wooden Sword Martial Arts Gym has just opened, there is no one to ask for it, and there is no name for it, so it is strange that someone will find such a martial arts hall!

Meng Li smiled bitterly and said: "Although the people's silver is easy to earn, but people must be willing to let you earn it, since our wooden sword martial arts hall is difficult to convince the public, then turn around, tomorrow Brother Wang will go to Jianjing Mansion with me, and we will take over the task of the imperial court." ”

Hearing that Meng Li was going to take over the task of the imperial court, everyone's expressions changed.

The tasks of the imperial court are easy to take or do, and compared with civilian tasks, the difficulty is not known to be many times higher, and some tasks will be even more life-threatening.

There are not a few martial artists who die every year because of this.

"We haven't fully figured out the situation in Jieshui City, wouldn't it be a bit presumptuous to take this step now?"

Wang Ergou was a little worried.

"It's okay, we only pick those tasks that we are sure to do, be careful, there won't be too many problems. ”

Meng Li also had no choice.

If he wants to develop rapidly, the only way to improve the prestige of the martial arts hall is to improve his prestige, and the fastest way to increase his prestige is to complete the tasks of the imperial court.

Early the next morning, Meng Li and Wang Ergou came to Jianjing Mansion.

Jianjing Mansion, Meng Li has been here more than once, but this time it is of great significance.

In the task hall, Meng Li and Wang Ergou followed the flow of people, walking in front of the task list, until he personally felt the tense atmosphere here, he knew that his previous thoughts were too naïve.

There are two types of missions posted in the lobby, combat and non-combat.

The two types of missions, divided by difficulty level, pay almost the same.

However, the cycle of non-combat missions is longer, and it will take one or two months to move, and some missions may not be completed in half a year.

Meng Li didn't have time to spend on this, so he could only focus on the combat mission.

But then, the problem arises again.

In the task room, there are more wolves and less meat, and there are many martial arts halls that have been squatting for a long time. As soon as a high-quality task is released, it will be snapped up, and all that will be left will be some high-risk tasks.

Meng Li walked around the task room, looking at the few inferior tasks left on the list, his face became more and more ugly.

At this moment, I suddenly heard someone say, "Meng Li?"

Hearing someone shouting, Meng Li turned his head and found that this person was actually Bai Ye.

"Meet the seniors!"

Bai also nodded and said, "Come to pick up the task?"

Meng Li smiled bitterly: "I originally thought so, but after seeing these tasks, I hesitated a little. ”

Combat missions are all tasks of chasing and killing gangsters, and he doesn't know much about these gangsters, so he doesn't dare to take them rashly.

Bai Ye smiled: "I almost forgot, yesterday was the day your martial arts hall opened, those martial arts halls in Beicheng, didn't embarrass you, right?"

Meng Li said gratefully: "Speaking of which, I would like to thank my predecessors for this matter, if it weren't for the seniors who found the Tianhua Martial Arts Pavilion, my Martial Arts Pavilion might not be able to open." ”

Bai Ye waved his hand and said: "You are humble, even without me, you can survive this catastrophe with your strength, and I am just the icing on the cake." ”

The confession also appeared, and Wang Ergou, who had been paying attention to the situation around him, suddenly made a face to Meng Li after making sure that no one was paying attention to them.

Meng Li was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly came to his senses, leaned in front of Bai Ye, and said with a hippie smile: "Senior, can you take a step to speak?"

"You kid, what the hell did you think of?"

"No, I just wanted to catch up with you. ”

"Then go to my room!"

In Jianjing Mansion, in the room that Bai Ye used to meet guests, Meng Li and Wang Ergou sat opposite Bai Ye nervously.

Bai Ye, who has long known the ups and downs of officialdom, how can he not see the hearts of these two people when he sees this scene?

If it is really like what Meng Li said, it is a nonsense that no one believes in deceitful ghosts.

"Tell me, what the hell are you trying to do?"

Since the other party had already spoken, Meng Li simply got straight to the point and said with a smile: "Since the senior asked, I won't hide it." We in the Wooden Sword Martial Arts Pavilion want to ask our seniors for a task. ”

Bai also said meaningfully: "Oh, I understand, you want me to open a small stove for you!"

Meng Li smiled and said, "The senior is in charge of the distribution of the imperial court's tasks, this little thing should be nothing to the seniors?"

Bai also nodded and said, "Well, it's nothing." ”

Meng Li and Wang Ergou's eyes lit up, and when they couldn't help but cheer, they heard this Lord Bai say again: "But this matter is not negotiable. ”

The tasks of the imperial court are very important, so how can they engage in favoritism and irregularities? Although Bai Ye is dissolute, he is an extremely principled person.

Besides, Feng Yu is also staring at him now, and it is even more impossible for him to give the other party a chance.

"Isn't there any room for negotiation?"

was vetoed, which made Meng Li a little disappointed.

Bai Ye frowned, and hesitated: "Actually, it's not completely impossible!"

Hearing that there was another way, Meng Li's expression was shocked, and he hurriedly pricked up his ears.

Bai also said slowly: "Have you ever heard of spontaneous tasks?"

Spontaneous tasks?

Meng Li was about to shake his head, but saw Wang Ergou nodding and said: "The so-called spontaneous task is a task that is temporarily applied for through special methods according to one's own needs and when there is no relevant task in the imperial court. ”

"It's your own mission. ”

Meng Li understood and called this good.

"It's not that simple. Bai Ye smiled and said: "This thing is like a reward, if you want the imperial court to generate a task for you, you must pay the price!"

The word price scared Meng Li a little.

The boy blinked, and asked weakly, "What price?"

"Ahem!" Bai also cleared his throat, "First of all, you need to have a piece of ironwood." This ironwood order is a superior reward for compulsory tasks, and it is also where the prestige of the imperial court lies, your martial arts hall has just been established, and you need to ...... first."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Meng Li say weakly again: "I have this iron and wood!"

"Of course I know you don't have ......"

Bai also said in passing, but the next moment he realized the problem and said in shock: "What did you say?"

"I have this Temu Order!"

Meng Li took out the Tiemu Ling that Xiao Zicong had given him before, took a piece, and handed it to Bai Ye.

At this moment, Bai Ye was really shocked, grabbed Meng Li and asked, "How can you have an iron and wood order, and it's still two?"

He looked at Meng Li's eyes more and more strangely, as if he was looking at a thief.

"This is a gift, a friend!" Meng Li couldn't cry or laugh.

With this expression, do you suspect that I stole the warehouse of your Jianjing Mansion?

"What friend is so generous?"

Bai also muttered, suddenly waved his hand, and said loudly: "Okay, none of this is important, since you have the Iron and Wood Order, it will be easy to do!"

Meng Li touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Since it is a spontaneous task, then I can do whatever I want?"

Shiraya nodded and said, "That's right!"

Meng Li lowered his head and thought about it, and for a while, he really couldn't think of a good task.

Just when he was in trouble, Wang Ergou's eyes turned again, and he whispered in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "Earth Dragon Gang!"

Meng Li's eyes lit up, and he said secretly: How did I forget this.

"Senior, I want to take on a mission to destroy the Earth Dragon Gang. ”

can both do tasks and take revenge, how can this kind of good thing kill two birds with one stone, how can it be missed.

Bai Ye bowed his head and muttered: "The Earth Dragon Gang's behavior is despicable, it really should be rectified, I agreed to this task, wait for you to destroy the Earth Dragon Gang, come back to me and hand in the task." ”

Out of the gate of Jianjing Mansion, Meng Li felt refreshed.

"Brother Wang, let's not go back, go directly to the Earth Dragon Gang. ”

The Earth Dragon Gang is in Xijingfang.

Tianlong Teahouse, the stronghold of the Dilong Gang, Yan Dilong, as in the past, drank tea and listened to the play.

At this time, he didn't realize that he was about to be in trouble.

Just when the opera came to a climax and Yan Dilong was about to cheer, there was a loud bang, and the door of the teahouse was suddenly shattered.

The broken fragments of the wooden door flew like pieces of flying locust arrows, knocking Song Shu, who was sitting with Yan Dilong, to the ground.

Yan Dilong suddenly changed and slammed into the case.

"Who is making trouble in my Dilong Gang's territory, and I don't want to live?"

At the broken gate, two teenagers stood quietly.

Yan Dilong was shocked when he saw one of them.

"Meng, Meng Li, why did you come here?"

The young man in front of him, although he only has five forging cultivation, but the kung fu under his hand is comparable to seven forging.

Let's just say that yesterday's battle with Shen Songhe scared him, a six-forging martial artist, very much.

You must know that Shen Songhe is a martial artist who has been famous for a long time in Jieshui City, and his boxing skills are superb. He also fought with Shen Songhe, but he couldn't even take a move from the other party.

Meng Li smiled coldly: "Yan Dilong, what have you done, don't think I don't know, today is the death date of your Dilong Gang." ”

Yan Dilong shouted that he was wronged, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Lord Meng, spare your life, my Dilong Gang will definitely change its evil and return to righteousness, and I will never dare to cause trouble in your noodle restaurant in the future!"

This is kneeling?

Wang Ergou looked at Yan Dilong, who had changed his face in an instant, with a look of surprise.

It's just that this guy is not honest and kneeling a little bit thoroughly!

"Just don't go to the noodle shop to cause trouble?"

Yan Dilong blinked, pretended to be aggrieved, and asked, "Otherwise?"

As he spoke, he was still afraid that Meng Li would not believe it, so he immediately stretched out three fingers and swore to the sky: "I promise that except for the incident in the noodle restaurant, I have never done anything to be sorry for the owner of the Meng Pavilion." ”

Meng Li stared at Yan Dilong with a calm expression, and suddenly sighed and said, "You are really innocent!"

Yan Dilong was shocked when he heard this, his lips trembled, and he couldn't speak.

Meng Li looked directly at the other party and said coldly: "Do you think that you are in collusion with the Yuan family, I don't know? Do you think I don't know about the rumors and troubles you have opened in my martial arts hall? Yan Dilong, now that the matter is over, do you still want to say that you have been wronged?"

"You, how do you know?"

Yan Dilong looked at Meng Li as if he was looking at a devil.

Meng Li took out the masked black cloth and threw it to Yan Dilong.

"Look what this is!"

When Yan Dilong saw the four holes in the black cloth, he couldn't help but think of the scene of being beaten in the teahouse that day, and he was stunned.

"You're the masked man?"

Meng Li was noncommittal, and raised his hand to fight.

Yan Dilong hurriedly hugged his head, lay on the ground and cried: "I change, I change, I change everything!"

Wang Ergou seemed to suddenly think of something, and smiled slightly: "This person is available." ”

The four words fluttering lightly fell in Yan Dilong's ears, like fairy music. He hurriedly crawled forward, hugged Wang Ergou's thigh, and flattered: "This hero is right, I am willing to join the command of the master of the Meng Pavilion." ”

Meng Li looked at him suspiciously.

"Do you really want to?"

"I do...... Fart!"

Yan Dilong instantly burst out, and buckled his hand behind his back to restrain Wang Ergou's throat.

Wang Ergou was stunned by this scene, and immediately urged the True Qi to fight back, but when the True Qi Mud Cow entered the sea, he remembered that the other party was a powerful six-forging martial artist.

Sure enough, life is like a play!

Yan Dilong's performance just now was so realistic that he forgot that the other party was still an extremely dangerous six-forging powerhouse.

Meng Li also seemed to be stunned by this scene, and looked at Yan Dilong blankly, motionless.

"Meng Li, I can't think of it, you will have today?"

Yan Dilong's tone was arrogant and his demeanor was proud, it was difficult for people to associate it with his performance just now.

Meng Li touched his nose with a strange expression.

How can you say that he is dead?

But this old boy's acting skills just now really don't have to be said.

Well, since you love acting, I'll play with you.

"What do you want? Just don't hurt my friend, you can say anything. ”

A trace of panic appeared on Meng Li's face.

"What a Meng Pavilion Master, righteous enough!" Yan Dilong chuckled, it seemed that he had guessed correctly, this Meng Li was indeed a righteous person.

However, the more righteous people are, the more weaknesses they have.

Meng Li asked again, "What do you want?"

"What do I want? I want your life!"

Yan Dilong roared loudly and shouted to Song Shu, who had just stood up from the ground at the back of the teahouse: "Old Song, kill him for me." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone changed color.

is a good Yan Dilong, not only can act, but also greedy enough!

Meng Li frowned slightly, still unmoved.

Song Shu saw that Meng Li didn't move, and thought that the victory was in his hands, so he took out a dagger and slowly walked towards Meng Li.

Yan Dilong stared at Meng Li, the palm that restrained Wang Ergou's throat tightened a little more, and said fiercely: "If you dare to move, I will kill him!"

Will Meng Li be caught?

The moment Song Shu's dagger stabbed over, Meng Li suddenly raised his leg and kicked it out, cleanly.

Yan Dilong's eyes widened and he roared suddenly.

"Bastard, didn't you tell you not to move?

Meng Li looked at Song Shu, who was kicked half to death, and said aggrievedly: "I'm sorry, I was too nervous just now, and I kicked out myself without controlling my feet." Or do it again, this time I promise I won't kick you. ”

"Boss. ”

Song Shu looked at Yan Dilong, seeking the other party's opinion. For some reason, he always found this thing weird.

The other party was really willing to give his life for his brother's righteousness, he didn't believe it.

Yan Dilong now has no way out, so he can only make a desperate bet.

"Do it!"

A hoarse voice came out of his mouth, like swallowing a lump of iron.

Song Shu picked up the dagger and stabbed Meng Li again.

Meng Li really kept his word, and did not come out of his feet, but stretched out a hand.

Syllable!

Song Shu, who was slapped away, was lying on the ground with a desperate face!

Don't play like this!

This time, before Song Shu could get angry, Meng Li had already spoken, and said, "I know you must be very angry, and then you will threaten me with Brother Wang's life again, but do you really dare to do it? Don't forget, he is your only talisman now, if he is missing a cold hair, I will let you die a good death!"

This time Meng Li is serious!

Feeling Meng Li's killing intent, Yan Dilong trembled violently, Meng Li was right, he really didn't dare to kill Wang Ergou.

"Oh, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, Master Meng, I was just joking with you just now, don't mind!"

Yan Dilong deserves to be a master of acting, and when he noticed the impasse in front of him, he immediately changed his strategy and put Wang Ergou back.

"Brother Meng Li, have you been in trouble?"

Wang Ergou came to Meng Li's side, ashamed.

It was so humiliating to be taken hostage by the other party.

Meng Li asked a question with a serious expression. "Do you still think he can be used?"

Wang Ergou pondered for a moment, nodded heavily, and said, "It's still okay!"

Yan Dilong burst into tears suddenly, look, what a good person!

Meng Li looked at Yan Dilong, and said with a gloomy face: "Yan Dilong, I will give you another chance, be loyal to me, I can spare your life, but your Dilong Gang must be disbanded today." ”

"Disbanded, must be disbanded!"

Yan Dilong patted his chest and swore an oath: "From today onwards, my life will be yours of the Meng Pavilion Master." ”

"Okay, you can eat this!"

Meng Li took out a black pill and handed it to Yan Dilong.

The corners of Yan Dilong's mouth twitched, and he said in a trembling voice: "This can't be poison!"

Meng Li sneered: "It's not poison, what can it be?"

To deal with a villain like Yan Dilong, you must not be merciful.

This poison is not a random mud pill he just picks up to scare and scare, but a real poison. It was a whim when he was refining the Qi Pill a few days ago, and it was made according to a recipe on the spiritual recipe, which contained chronic poison, and if there was no matching spiritual food to reconcile it, he would bleed to death within a few months.

"Can I not eat it?" Yan Dilong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his expression stiffened.

Meng Li held the poison in one hand, touched the knife in the other, and said coldly: "You can not eat it!"

"Don't don't, I'll eat, I'll eat!"

Afraid that Meng Li would regret it, Yan Dilong snatched the poison pill and swallowed it in his stomach.

Because he swallowed it so quickly, he didn't even notice what this poison pill tasted like.

"Boss Meng, look, I've already eaten it!"

Yan Dilong opened his mouth, revealing two big yellow teeth.

Meng Li frowned, pushed Yan Dilong aside in disgust, and instructed: "In the future, Wang Ergou will be your person in charge, and if there is anything, he will be responsible for contacting you." ”

"Understood, understood!"

Yan Dilong's dog-legged temperament was exerted to the extreme, and he pointed to Song Shu who was lying on the ground and said, "Boss Meng, since I have followed you, is my brother also ......?"

"Oh, you didn't say I almost forgot!"

Under Song Shu's sad and indignant gaze, Meng Li took out another poison pill and said magnanimously: "You're welcome, I still have a lot here." ”

"Yes, yes, yes. After you eat it, we can be together again. Yan Dilong actually spoke of encouragement on the side.

Shit together, I think you're trying to pull a cushion.

In the end, Song Shu still swallowed the poison pill with tears.

The Dilong Gang was disbanded, and Yan Dilong was given the task of monitoring the Yuan family, and Meng Li went to Jianjing Mansion to deliver the task, but returned to the Wooden Sword Martial Arts Hall.

The martial arts hall is still deserted.

Liu Fengliu was cleaning in the yard alone.

Meng Li saw Liu Dashao, who was sweating like rain with a broom, and said with a smile: "What kind of evil wind is blowing today, you Liu Dashao also took the initiative to clean the yard!"

When Liu Fengliu saw King Meng and the others, it was like seeing a savior, and he threw the broom and said, "You can come back, you don't know how boring my day is." ”

Meng Li listened to the noise coming from the front hall, and said speechlessly: "The noodle restaurant is busy and crazy, are you embarrassed to say that you are bored?"

It doesn't matter if Meng Li doesn't mention this, but after he finished speaking, Liu Fengliu was even more aggrieved, and said with a sad face: "How do you know, this Miss Bu doesn't know what kind of wind she smoked today, and the things in the noodle restaurant didn't let me interfere, I just watched them busy, do you think I can live idle?"

"So you just picked up a broom and swept the yard?"

Wang Ergou's eyes widened.

I've never heard of it, busyness is contagious!

"Otherwise?" Liu Fengliu shrugged and said, "You can't sit still, anyway, we don't have a single person in the martial arts hall." ”

Meng Li sighed: "Alas, it seems that this eldest lady does what she says, yesterday she said that she would split up with us, and today she will really perform her duties!"

Liu Fengliu waved his hand and said, "Don't mention this, I will be upset when I mention it." By the way, how did you get today?"

Meng Li said lightly: "It's okay!"

What do you mean by okay?

Liu Fengliu scratched his head, looking confused.

Wang Ergou smiled and added, "Destroy a third-rate gang!"

"Holy!"

Liu Dashao was taken aback and immediately jumped up from the ground. Confirmed again: "Really, it's fake, and you destroyed a third-rate gang?"

What is the concept of a third-rate gang.

The top forces in Jieshui City are the Seven Sects of Jieshui and the Seven First-Class Families, and other than that, it will be the turn of the third-rate gangs.

There are less than thirty third-rate gangs in Jieshui City, although most of them are bastard gangs that fight petty, but don't forget that those who can create third-rate gangs must at least be first-class martial artists with martial arts orders.

If you want to destroy the gang, this first-class warrior will naturally have to be destroyed as well.

Awesome!

Seeing Liu Fengliu's admiring and envious eyes, Wang Ergou said refreshedly: "Can this still lie to you?"

Liu Fengliu gasped and threw himself to the ground at Meng Li's admiration.

"Boss Meng really made an extraordinary move, and he wiped out a third-rate gang for the first time, and I don't know which third-rate gang was so unlucky?"

Meng Li smiled dumbly and said, "You also know this gang!"

"I know too?" Liu Fengliu frowned at first, and then reacted, and said with a strange expression: "You won't destroy the Earth Dragon Gang, right?"

Wang Ergou said: "That's right, it's the Earth Dragon Gang." ”

Liu Fengliu gave a thumbs up.

Strong!

People say that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, but you are good, and you will take revenge in just a few days.

Revenge doesn't happen overnight, does it?

But then again, destroying a third-rate gang, this task should be quite difficult!

"How much bounty is there for this mission?"

Meng Li looked at Wang Ergou, he was more good at this question.

Wang Ergou said: "The task has not been handed in yet, but destroying a third-rate gang can already reach the second-class task." The bounty is at least five hundred taels. ”

It should be mentioned here that the court tasks of Jianjing Mansion are divided into three levels according to their difficulty, with the third being the lowest and the first being the highest. Each level of improvement varies by more than ten times.

And a second-class task will not only bring Meng Li five hundred taels of silver, but also bring him one hundred points of martial arts.
