Volume 1 A Hundred Years of Luck in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 21 The corpse is gone

Meng Jiangxi breathed fresh air and walked out of his yard.

Today's sun is exceptionally bright, which is really a great start for someone who is already in a good mood.

The plan of the day lies in the morning, and Meng Jiangxi has a habit of running around the village every day after getting up, sweating.

This habit has not been shaken for more than ten years!

Mengjia Village is not big, and when Meng Jiangxi, who is fully active, returns to his yard with a stinky sweat, half an hour has passed.

The courtyard of Meng Jiangxi's house is the longest fence yard in the village. It occupies a small area, and it is very clean, except for a vegetable patch that has just been sown with seeds, and there are only two large vats at the gate.

Two large vats, one on the left and one on the right, resemble a pair of chubby door gods, filled with water and sparkling in the early morning sun.

Meng Jiangxi came to one of the large vats, scooped a spoonful of cold water, and poured it directly on his head.

In the early spring, the temperature at night is still cold, after a night, the cold water in the tank has been biting, Meng Jiangxi poured water on the top, not only not afraid, but very enjoyable.

It's so cool!

Every morning exercise, Meng Jiangxi, who will produce a stream of heat in his body, enjoys the most moment, which is the first splash.

The blood flows rapidly in the body, and along with the blood, there is also a majestic force, which is known as the true qi.

This true qi is usually hidden inside the body, and it is difficult to detect when it is not activated. If Meng Jiangxi didn't say it, he would have already become a martial artist, and no one in Mengjia Village would know about it.

Meng Jiangxi, who has been fishing all his life, has never practiced martial arts, and being able to practice true qi is purely a coincidence, and it is his unremitting efforts for more than ten years.

At the beginning, his brother Meng Nangui found a refining method that could be trained by labor out of nowhere, and after trying it, it worked wonders.

In the past ten years, in addition to going out to sea to fish, Meng Jiangxi has been a daily practice that cannot be shaken.

For more than ten years, although he has not made as rapid progress as the cultivation of authentic exercises, he has also gained a lot, not only achieving the realm of martial arts, but also making his ears and eyes clear, and his five senses are extraordinary.

It's just that this true qi in his body is a little special, although it is hidden in his body, it can't be mobilized by him.

In Meng Jiangxi's view, the exercise he practiced was not used to kill, but the real effect was to prolong life.

Take him as an example, after practicing this method for nearly ten years, his body not only gets worse with age, but gets better and better, and even has the illusion that he is getting younger and younger.

can strengthen the body, but has no killing power, such an exercise, I am afraid that there is only one in the world.

And this is also the main reason why Meng Jiangxi still has scruples about Meng Huaiyang after he has true qi.

In the kitchen, my wife is busy, and on the stove next to her, the meal is almost ready.

Meng Jiangxi looked at the figure in the kitchen that was no longer enchanting, and his face showed a complicated look.

When Meng Nangui told him about this cultivation method, he once told him not to tell anyone, so that even his wife and children didn't know about the fact that he had the true qi of a martial artist.

After keeping secrets alone for more than ten years, Meng Jiangxi had long been accustomed to this matter, and it was not until that incident happened in the martial arts field that he reconsidered whether to keep it a secret.

If Meng Li could learn martial arts normally, he would naturally listen to Meng Nangui's advice and keep this secret in his stomach, but now that Meng Li's hope of learning martial arts is minimal, it is better to follow him to learn this strange technique of longevity and 100 years old, it is better than a mediocre life.

In Meng Jiangxi's heart, Meng Li's status is no worse than that of his son, and besides, this cultivation method originally came from his father, if it was returned to him, it would be regarded as a complete return to Zhao.

After making a decision in his heart, Meng Jiangxi walked next door. As I walked, I couldn't help but smile on my face.

Yesterday, he and Meng Li were busy on the shore for a day, and when they came back, it was already dark, so that when Meng Li went home, he didn't even have time to eat dinner.

When the girl in his family learned about this, she complained about his kindness as a father, and even packed half of the meal that he didn't have time to eat and sent it over. The two didn't know what Meng Lijia said, and when they came back, their faces were flushed.

Thinking of the two children, Meng Jiangxi was happy in his heart. However, just as he was about to step into the courtyard next door, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

Meng Jiangxi snorted, and his face suddenly became puzzled.

"Strange, where did the bloody smell come from? It seems to come from this courtyard!"

Meng Jiangxi looked in the direction where the blood came, and when he found that it was actually the courtyard of Meng Li's house, his expression suddenly became solemn.

For some reason, an ominous premonition quietly grew in his heart!

Meng left him...... It's not going to happen, is it?"

Meng Jiangxi was taken aback by the idea that popped up in his mind, and the good mood of leisurely wandering before suddenly disappeared.

If you say that in this village, who knows the most about Meng Li's situation, this person should be Meng Jiangxi, Meng Li doesn't raise livestock at home, let alone have wild beasts to slaughter, why is there suddenly a bloody gas?

Just as he was about to find out, he heard a person behind him: "Old Uncle Meng, why are you here?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Meng Jiangxi immediately looked behind him, and saw Meng Li standing behind him unharmed, and finally let go of his heart.

"It's nothing, it's nothing in the morning, just come over and have a look, are you out?"

Meng Li said embarrassedly: "I learned too much yesterday, I was a little excited at night, I didn't fall asleep, I finally stayed up until dawn, and I went to the back mountain for a turn." No, luckily, I caught a hare. ”

Meng Li lifted the hare he had just caught.

Meng Jiangxi's eyes turned, and sure enough, he saw a hare with blood-stained fur.

"It turned out to be a hare, I said how could it smell of blood!" Meng Jiangxi suddenly realized, and the last trace of worry in his heart suddenly disappeared.

Meng Li laughed and said, "Wait a minute, let Aunt Liu deal with it, and show everyone the meat." ”

At this time, Meng Li's back was already wet. Don't look at him relaxed on the surface, but he is extremely nervous in his heart.

I'm really afraid of anything.

The reason why Meng Li rushed all the way back was that the secret of the family was discovered, Meng Jiangxi's appearance was not an accident, today was the day of the ship after all, if he couldn't see him, Meng Jiangxi would definitely go to him, fortunately, he came back in time enough, and hunted a hare on the road just in case. Otherwise, something is going to happen.

When Meng Jiangxi heard him say this, he was relieved: "It's still that you kid will hurt people! But the time for us to leave the ship is almost up, and there is not so much time now." ”

Meng Li handed the hare over and said with a smile: "That's fine, I'll eat it when I come back in the evening." ”

Meng Jiangxi took the hare from Meng Li's hand with one hand, and pulled Meng Li with the other hand and said, "Your Aunt Liu has prepared a meal, let's go and fill our stomachs first, don't delay the time to get out of the boat." ”

Meng Li's purpose when he came back was to dispose of the corpses in the house, how could he go with Meng Jiangxi? Immediately broke free of the other party's palm, and said with a wry smile: "Old Uncle Meng, you see, I went out early in the morning, and my body was stained with a lot of mud, so you should let me go back and wash it!"

Meng Jiangxi patted his head and said with annoyance: "It's my negligence, then you wash it well, and come to me after washing." ”

"Okay, I'll be over soon. ”

Meng Li smiled and watched Meng Jiangxi leave, until the latter crossed the courtyard and returned to the house, and then his smiling face was put away.

It's finally been hidden!

Meng Li clutched his chest and exhaled heavily, and as this breath came out, the strength of his body seemed to be drained.

He never wanted to experience such an exciting thing a second time.

Forcibly enduring the feeling of prostration like the impact of the tide, Meng Li slowly walked into the courtyard.

Everything was the same in the yard, and nothing unusual was visible from the outside.

He walked to the door, stretched out his hands, and pushed the door nervously, the wooden door that he had pushed open many times had never been as heavy as it was today.

The unique creaking sound of the old wooden door slowly sounded in the courtyard, and as the wooden door opened, everything in the house was presented in front of Meng Li's eyes.

However, the scene in the room was a little different from what he had imagined. The corpse that was supposed to lie on the ground disappeared!

Meng Li walked around the room, but still found nothing, and then admitted everything in front of him.

It seems that Meng Huaiyang's body is really gone!

"Someone came here last night, who could it be? Could it be my cheap master?"

Meng Li frowned, his face unbelievable.

When it comes to disposing of corpses, the only possible thing is his newly-recognized cheap master.

When he first returned to the cave last night, Yan Xingguan had left for a while, thinking that he was going to help him collect blood and water, but now it seems that he should have come here.

But if that's the case, why didn't the other party tell him about it before he left? It wasn't to surprise him, was it?

Meng Li, who was squatting on the ground and thinking, always had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

Yan Xingguan didn't leave for a long time, this time was not enough for him to bury the corpse, and the only way to deal with it was to bury the corpse wilderness.

But wouldn't this greatly increase the chances of being discovered?

Of course, no matter what happens to the body, as long as it is not thrown into the Huaichuan River, it is not a big problem. Because of the Huaichuan River's unique return to the shore in spring, it will not take long for the corpses to be pushed back to the shore.

"I hope Master, he didn't throw the body into the Huaichuan River. ”

Meng Li, who showed a self-deprecating smile, decided to wait until the evening to ask his unreliable master.

Time was pressing, and after carefully cleaning the house to make sure that there would be no traces, Meng Li walked out of the door and walked towards Meng Jiangxi's house.

Before entering the house, he had already smelled the aroma of food, Meng Li took a deep breath, changed his mood, and the next moment, a sweet smile appeared on his face.

After breakfast from Meng Jiangxi's house, the two began to go to the fishing ground. Along the way, Meng Jiangxi seized the little time left and continued to emphasize the details of fishing to Meng Li. In the past, when I went out to fish, I was mostly playing around, and there was no need to be too harsh, but now I want to eat this bowl of rice, and I can't be sloppy at all.

Meng Jiangxi is tireless, Meng Li is also humbly taught, two people, one teaches and one learns, the cooperation is excellent, and they don't feel bored along the way.

When leaving the village, Meng Jiangxi reminded Meng Li and asked him not to anger Meng Huaiyang today, after all, he is a young man with strong blood, and it is inevitable that he will be angry, although he is not worried that Meng Li will take the initiative to make trouble, but he is afraid that he will not be able to withstand the other party's provocation, but when the two arrived at the fishing ground, Meng Jiangxi found that his worries were purely superfluous.

Today's fishing ground, unlike in the past, exudes a dignified atmosphere.

In the past, the fishermen who did not disturb each other are now whispering together, not knowing what to say.

Meng Jiangxi stepped forward to inquire, but what he got was the news of Meng Huaiyang's disappearance.

"Meng Huaiyang is missing? Meng Jiangxi touched his chin, but his brows were furrowed, Meng Huaiyang's character he knew, although he was domineering and arrogant, but he was conscientious in the matter of fishing, which can be seen from his thirst for the title of fish king. Now that the water is about to emerge, how can it disappear for no reason?

Just when Meng Jiangxi was puzzled, a person on the dock ran in a panic, shouting as he ran: "Oh no, no, something is wrong!"

Meng Jiangxi saw the man running and asked, "Meng Xiang, what's wrong?"

The person who ran from the dock was the young man who was reprimanded by Meng Huaiyang yesterday, and at this time he looked frightened, as if he had just seen something extremely frightening, and said in a trembling voice: "Meng Huaiyang, dead!"
