Chapter 23 is like a great enemy

The Moye Pagoda is seven storeys high, symbolizing the seven and the floating slaughter. The first floor of the tower is the registration point for participating in the Mo Evil Conference, the quota is enough, and the registration has ended. Meng Chuanqing and a few people, under the leadership of the tower keeper Bei Muhan, climbed to the second floor to pay homage to the demeanor of the goddess of Mo Evil.

The huge statue of the goddess of Mo Evil is made of white jade. The statue is seven feet high, but because it is molded on a high platform, Meng Chuanqing and a few people can only look up. Seeing this statue at a glance, Meng Chuanqing knew that it was natural for everyone in the rivers and lakes to respect Mo Xiaoxie so much. Mo Xiaoxiao on the statue made everyone feel warm, quiet, light, and elegant, and people couldn't help but want to look at it twice.

Meng Chuanqing originally thought that Mo Xiaoxie was like a fairy like a woman in white on the sea, but although Mo Xiaoxie on the statue was also dressed in white, he was dressed in a strong outfit. Her long hair fluttered slightly, and with the incomparable divine sword on her back, it gave people a heroic feeling.

"This is Mo Xiaoxie! It's so beautiful!" Sang Youwei couldn't help but sigh.

"She must be very lonely, giving people a sense of loss, as if she has gone through vicissitudes. Yan Shangci looked at Mo Xiaoxie's face and said calmly.

Meng Chuanqing looked at Yan Shangci and didn't understand why she said this. Mo Xiaoxie's face was calm and indifferent, where did she see the loss?

Yan Shangci suddenly smiled again: "It may be an illusion, there was a moment just now that made me feel that Mo Xiaoye was smiling at me." ”

This kind of self-comfort made Meng Chuanqing a little puzzled, Shang Ci was able to see through people's hearts, and his words were also deeply rooted in people's hearts. She said that Mo Xiaoxie was a little lost, maybe it was true, could it be that there was any secret hidden in Mo Xiaoxie that people in the rivers and lakes didn't know?

"The first floor is a flower, the second floor is a god statue, I don't know what the third floor will be?" Meng Chuanqing began to be curious again.

Bei Muhan shook his head with a smile and said, "There is nothing on the third floor, it is empty." After saying that, he was called away by other tourists.

Although he heard the scholar say this, Meng Chuanqing always had a strange feeling, looking at the stairs on the third floor, he always felt that something seemed to attract him. Before you know it, step by step, you get closer and climb the stairs. The three girls were puzzled and silently followed him.

There was no surprise on the third floor that brought Meng Chuanqing, just an accident. He didn't expect the third floor to be unusually quiet, with only three people.

A man in white stood in front of the window with his back to the staircase, and a man in black with long hair scattered over his shoulders was half-lying on a chaise longue, holding a jug of wine in his hand. There was a round table beside him, on which there was only a jug of water, three teacups, and a plate of dried fruits. A young man in black sat at the table with his back to the staircase, one arm resting on the table, and a seven-inch long sword lay horizontally next to his arm.

When Meng Chuanqing and the others went upstairs, the man on the recliner turned his head to look at him, and then the other two also looked back at him. Immediately, the man in white turned his head and continued to look out the window: standing there, he just had a panoramic view of the lion dance platform and even the Donghua Inn opposite. The black-clothed young man at the table stood up suddenly, his hand on the hilt of his sword.

These three people are the supreme leaders of the Confused Hall.

The man in white is the hall master of the Confused Hall, and his name is Jiang Caiqing. Although he is the master of the hall, he never asks about the affairs of the hall, and all the affairs of the hall are entrusted to the lord Ye Weiyang to manage.

The man in black with long hair and a shawl is the lord of the Confused Hall. He is known as the world's first wise man, chic, evil and deceitful, he and Jiang Caiqing have been in a state of confusion for ten years, and they have a tacit understanding with each other.

The black-clothed young man is the number one killer of the Confused Hall, God Kills Lao Sangxin, that is, the Remnant Sun Sword Master who killed the two elders of the peasant family. She is the head of the killer, and her identity has always been kept secret, so she often disguises herself as a man and assumes the pseudonym Lao Tian when she goes on missions. The piccolo on his body is a musical instrument for playing ** songs, ** songs are specially played for Mo Tiandu, who has taken puppet insects.

Mo Tiandu was the former Remnant Sun Sword Master, and when he was imprisoned in the Confusion Hall, he refused to confide in the Remnant Sun Sword's sword moves. For this reason, Ye Weiyang gave him a puppet worm that could control people's hearts. The people who are controlled by the puppet insects have lost their autonomy, and his swordsmanship is not as good as before. But as long as Lao Sangxin plays the ** song, the puppet insect can enter the realm of suspended animation, and Mo Tiandu will be able to recover his heart. Since Lao Sangxin received the Remnant Sun Sword from Mo Tiandu's hand, the two had a heart-to-heart connection, and when Mo Tiandu and Shang Yu fell into a battle with them, she obviously sensed the strength of the other party. So she played a ** song on this side, and saw the fierce battle situation on that side from Mo Tiandu's heart, so she asked Mo Tiandu to pass the word to Ran Bizhi. [For details, see "Extra Chapter: Confused Hall Killer"]

Seeing these people, Meng Chuanqing was obviously a little surprised. sensed that since he went upstairs, the eyes of the man in black on the recliner have been staring at him, and he has never left for a moment. He suddenly felt unhappy, his eyelids tightened, and he suddenly looked back at him, and looked at him with a slight warning in his eyes.

This look at each other is like a blend of water and fire, wind and clouds. It seems that they know each other, but they are like a world away. At that moment, everyone stopped breathing, just to feel the brilliance of the moment, and at that moment, the air stopped flowing, just to watch the dazzling sparks that collided with them...

It's a strange feeling that each other feels that the other is a confidant, but they are their biggest rivals in life.

At this moment, the silence was surprising, as if the whole world was watching these two people, forgetting everything.

Ye Weiyang suddenly laughed.

He felt he had to do something to ease the silence and tension. Because, he couldn't see anything in the other person's eyes that he wanted to know. He is a wise man, with the heart of "forgetting his roots", he can penetrate people's hearts from a person's eyes, but he can't see through Meng Chuanqing.

Meng Chuanqing's eyes were clear and dim, but they seemed to have magical power, faintly flashing with blue light, weird but not dazzling.

This is the third person he has met in his life. Ten years ago, Nan Wushi made her unable to see through, and Shang Yuluo a year ago couldn't be seen through him, but now this young man made him even more incomprehensible.

There are only three kinds of people in the world who are not controlled by his mind.

One is a person who has no distractions. This kind of person has no desires and desires in his heart, and has reached the state of "self-forgetfulness". Since they are "self-forgetful," how can they "forget their roots"? But this kind of person has never been seen before, and they only exist in legends. For example, Xuanyuan Lingzi a hundred years ago.

One is a person whose mind is on par with his, who discovers his intentions and resists with his strength. This kind of person is common, after all, there are too many smart people in this world. It's like Nan Wu's poems ten years ago.

There is also a type of person who also has this kind of mind, and the other person's mind is slightly better than their own. There are also many such people. Like the Heavenly Demon Sect's Heavenly Demon Divine Skill, Canglang Island's Fang Soul Yiyi, the Snowflake Divine Sect's gloomy **, and the Secret Cave Palace's Mind Deterrence Technique.

Ye Weiyang couldn't see what kind of person Meng Chuanqing was, which made him feel frustrated, and it was also the one he didn't like the most. He hates losing.

So he smiled, looked at Lao Sangxin, and said, "Lao Tian, your guests are coming, and you still don't greet you?"

Lao Tian seemed to understand what kind of "greeting" he was talking about, he walked up to Meng Chuanqing and made a gesture of please.

Meng Chuanqing looked at him lightly, he could already see that the person in front of him was a woman disguised as a man, which made him more and more curious about the identities of these people. Obviously, their appearance surprised them very much, but they still entertained themselves so hospitablely, which is really rare.

He himself was also very conflicted, the man in black on the recliner made him feel like he was facing a great enemy, so he didn't dare to approach, but the man in white who couldn't see his face clearly by the window gave him a sense of closeness, as if he had known each other in his previous life, which made him unconsciously want to get closer. The young man named Lao Tian in front of him also gave him a sense of déjà vu, but this thought flashed through him.

Meng Chuanqing thought about it, and suddenly smiled: "I'm sorry." Then, to his surprise, he turned and went downstairs. The three daughters beside him also followed him without any nostalgia.

Lao Tian was stunned for a moment, and then looked back at Ye Weiyang.

Ye Weiyang had already sat up. He looked at the staircase where Meng Chuanqing and the others left, and felt a little incredulous. He just left? It was completely unexpected.

Although he couldn't see through this teenager at all, he could at least see that he was not the kind of person who escaped and didn't have the guts. He also has a kind of domineering and boldness that is not obvious, shouldn't such a person sit down happily when faced with this situation?

"Weiyang," the man in white suddenly turned around and said, "Didn't you close this place, why are there still people coming up?"

In order not to let too many people know how many people they are, Ye Weiyang laid out the "forget the roots" mental method at the top of the stairs before going upstairs, and all those who want to go upstairs will be invaded by his mental method and turn back unconsciously.

That means he's the same mind. Ye Weiyang calmly analyzed: "There are only five of these mental methods on the rivers and lakes. The Southern Snow Flower Divine Sect is a women's sect, and the mental method is only known by previous sect leaders, and the Northern Heavenly Demon Sect has been lost since Lou Zhongcong's disappearance, so these two can be ruled out. The Western Secret Cave Palace was destroyed by Beiying Heaven twenty years ago, and only two disciples, Qiu Shuangxin and Farmer and Herdsman, survived, and these two finally joined the Heavenly Demon Sect. I have also seen the mental method of Canglang Island in the East, and the skill of the island master is not as good as mine, so it is even more impossible to be a disciple of her. Therefore, it is very likely that this person is from the Heavenly Demon Sect. His mental method is actually much better than mine, and even those women around him who don't know martial arts can be brought in, and,"

Ye Weiyang's eyes flashed with excitement and surprise, and he looked at Jiang Caiqing, "When they went upstairs, they didn't even notice you, could it be too strong?"

Jiang Caiqing didn't speak, and seemed to be thinking about this issue.

"Go check if this person has signed up for the Mo Ye Conference, and don't give him a chance to be your opponent. Ye Weiyang gave an order to Lao Tian.

Meng Chuanqing and his entourage walked out of the Moye Pagoda and stopped at the lion dance stage. He looked up at the third floor, and the man in white was still standing by the window, also looking at him, with a calm and indifferent face. Although they are facing each other head-on, the distance is too far away for Meng Chuanqing to see his face clearly, but as if he had met in his previous life, he embedded the outline of his figure in his heart. Meng Chuanqing didn't understand why he had such feelings for a man he had never met, which made him a little happy and a little disgusted, which was why he suddenly went downstairs.

When Lao Tian invited him upstairs, he originally wanted to go over happily, but Ye Weiyang's confident appearance and the strange feeling brought to him by Jiang Caiqing made him go against him. Although I felt that I had missed the opportunity to meet the strange person, I had to force myself to accept such a decision.

When the few people returned to the inn, Sang Jun had not returned. Because they didn't pay the bill, the shopkeeper didn't arrange a room for them, so they had to sit in the hall and wait. In the evening, Sang Jun came back with a big baggage. When he showed the stacks of silver tickets in his baggage, everyone at the table was stunned. The shopkeeper and the young showman didn't even dare to get angry, and hurriedly arranged a good room for each of them.

The rooms of Donghua Inn are good, but the service attitude is poor. Several people stayed in their rooms, waiting for the man to fetch water, but an hour passed, and the man did not come. Meng Chuanqing and Sang Jun were two men, and Yan Shangci and the three women were impatient to wait, and they came to his room to complain.

Meng Chuanqing had to bring in the buddy, and when he was about to ask, the guy took the lead in speaking: "The rules of the Donghua Inn are that only the room is provided, not responsible for boiling water, and all needs must be solved by yourself." When Meng Chuanqing heard this, he immediately became angry, and the guy's next words made him want to beat him down.

The guy said, "If you want us to serve, you need to pay extra." A bucket of frozen water is twenty taels, and boiling water is fifty taels. A hundred taels of bath buckets, and one tael of firewood. If you still want to soak in the petal bath, we have rose petals, hibiscus petals, and begonia petals, each petal for five dollars... Also, each of you will have to pay me twenty taels for errands..."

Guy Rory wanted to say a lot more, but was kicked out by Meng Chuanqing.

Closing the door angrily, Meng Chuanqing fell on the bed. He was glad that he had a God of Wealth with him, otherwise he wouldn't be able to afford this night even if he sold himself. A petal costs five dollars of silver, is there any reason for this?

Sang Youwu suddenly opened the door, the guy was still standing outside the door and didn't leave, she stuffed a stack of silver tickets into the guy's arms, and said, "Ten thousand taels of silver tickets, all the preparations should be prepared for me." ”

The man took the money ticket and ran downstairs to boil the water. After this toss, when a few people freshened up and fell asleep, it was already the middle of the night.

Next. Before dawn, Meng Chuanqing got up. It was too much money for him to spend money on fetching water, so he was willing to do it himself.

The guest room is on the third floor, but the well is in the back yard on the first floor. As soon as he reached the second floor, he stopped.

The people in the inn have not yet gotten up, so it is very quiet, but in the middle of the hall on the first floor, there is a person sitting at this time, dressed in black, drinking and drinking, like a ghost. Seeing Meng Chuanqing go downstairs, he just smiled, but did not speak.

Meng Chuanqing ignored him, went straight downstairs to the backyard to fetch water, and then under the gaze of Ye Weiyang, he went up to the third floor step by step with a bucket full of water in one hand. During this period, he did not relax in the slightest, and his breathing was very even, which made Ye Weiyang very frightened, how many people can reach this internal force?

Just after observing this short meeting, he could already be sure that Meng Chuanqing's skills were far above Lao Tian, and he secretly thought in his heart that if Meng Chuanqing's skills were also above Lao Tian, then he would have to find a way to get rid of this fierce rival for Lao Tian.

Last night, Lao Tian reported to him that this young man had also signed up for the Mo Ye Conference, so he came here early in the morning to test Meng Chuanqing's catties.
