I Honor

Visits in succession

The “Three Purities Temple” in Langya is a common Taoist temple, where people worship and offer incense.

There were only a few masters who were enlightened, so naturally they had no objection to Meng Qi’s excuse.

Meng Qi had just settled down, and before he had time to make tea, thinking about Ruan Yaoguang’s attitude, he saw a knowledgeable guest come to report, saying that Nie Zhi, the head arrester of Jinzhang in Pengzhou, would pay a visit.

“Golden Badge Headhunter” Meng Qi was stunned for a moment, then got up immediately and went to the door.

Jiangdong includes Jiangzhou and Pengzhou. Langya is the city of Pengzhou. There are six gates in the city. Jin Zhang and his assistant Zishou are in charge of criminal affairs in Jianghu. Jin Zhang is Nie Straight, a top five heaven master.

Such a character, in most cities, is a big man who promises a lot, stomps his foot, and shakes the whole city three times, but Langya has the Ruan family, not to mention the master-level powerhouse, who can beat Nie Zhi There are quite a few of the top masters in the country. If it is said that he represents the imperial court, Mr. Ruan was once the leftist minister in the political affairs hall, with a high position and authority, far above Nie Zhi. Therefore, Nie Zhi has always kept a low profile in Langya and focused on other cities in Pengzhou. , Just like colleagues in Guangling, Yedu and other cities.

Today, he took the initiative to visit. With such doubts, Meng Qi walked out of the courtyard and saw Nie Zhi.

Nie Zhi is an old man with gray hair, but he is full of vigor and blood, full of teeth, no wrinkles on his face, and his laughter is like Hong Zhong: “My nephew is really a leader of the younger generation. The knife before was shocking. Ask yourself, I have to avoid it even if I am afraid.” Open your eyes.”

He was wearing a dark red headhunter, embroidered with gold thread, with a gold medal hanging around his waist, and his back was straight, without looking old.

Listening to him addressing him as a good nephew, Meng Qi didn’t know that this was a move to bring the Su family closer. It still really involved the Su family, and he bowed his hands and said: “Shibo is humble.”

Nie Zhi laughed loudly: “How can I be modest, I am old and old. I am really old.”While speaking, he took the initiative to step into the yard. Knowledgeable and interesting to leave.

After sitting on the left and right sides of the stone table, Nie Zhi looked around the yard. The wind was blowing slowly, but there was no abnormality, and the inside and outside were slightly isolated to prevent eavesdropping.

“Nephew, you left home without saying hello, did a lot of things, and then disappeared for more than a year. You only showed up in Jiangdong, which made your father and your uncle very worried, afraid that something might happen to you. Today How can I let the old man let you go when I finally meet you?” Nie Zhi said with a half-smile.

Meng Qi was so ashamed, he had no feelings for the Su family, and the only thing he cared about after the cause and effect was resolved was sister Ziyue, who was related to his uncle, and he didn’t send a few letters back, most of them were written to Su Ziyue and Gu Changqing, instructing them on their cultivation .

“My nephew has offended a lot of powerful people. If he lives in a fixed place, he will be easily ambushed and killed, so he doesn’t dare to go home before he grows up.” Meng Qi pondered.

That’s one of the real reasons.

Nie Zhi shook his head and said: “There are many strong people in the capital of God. Demons and heretics stop, and it is one of the safest places in the world. Why do you worry about my nephew?”

“Shibo Mingjian, the gods have all kinds of precautions, and they can indeed deter the strong. Even people with high levels of law may not dare to mess around, but this is just a normal situation. If someone doesn’t care about his own life or death, he insists on dragging his nephew to die together. No matter how many formations and powers there are in the gods, what’s the use of them, the danger is only in the breath.” Meng Qi thought of his “assassination” in the gods. “And among the enemies that my nephew has offended, there is no shortage of people who can send out such dead men.”

“Because of the Tathagata’s divine palm.” Nie Zhi showed a little curiosity.

more than this. Except for the Longevity Sect, I have offended almost all of the Nine Daoes of Demons, both openly and secretly, and some have offended more than once, especially the “Magician” Han Guang. Thinking back on it, I feel more and more that I have a predestined relationship with the evil spirits.

“It is.” He replied ambiguously, and then said, “I don’t know how the situation is at home.”

“The old lady, your father, and your uncle are all in good health. Although they no longer have the title of marquis, the title of Eight Great Gods can shock most Xiao Xiao.” Nie Zhizhi didn’t mention Ke Weilan, anyway, he still looked like that.

He paused and said, “Your father seems to be a bit disheartened, he often reads Buddhist scriptures and Taoist books.”

Meng Qi nodded lightly: “Where is Sister She?”

“The family has undergone great changes, Ziyue has lost her youthfulness, she has worked hard and made a lot of progress.” Nie Zhi praised.

Meng Qi asked other questions, and Nie Zhi answered them one by one. It was really like a meeting between the uncle and his nephew.

“I don’t know what people in the family think about my nephew leaving home.” At the end, Meng Qi couldn’t help asking.

Nie Zhi smiled wryly: “Your father said that you are a son and daughter of the world, and you can’t stand restraint.”

Isn’t the son and daughter of the rivers and lakes a synonym for “not at home”? Meng Qi followed with a wry smile.

After recounting the past, Nie Zhi straightened his face: “The old man is here today, and I have one more thing to ask my nephew.”

“Uncle, please tell me.” Meng Qi knew that he would go to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing.

Nie Zhi stroked a few white beards: “I also ask my nephew to help find out about the Ruan family’s dealing with the blue-blooded people.”

He seemed quite confident in Meng Qi’s relationship with the Ruan family.

“I’m afraid it’s inconvenient to disclose the specific plan.” Meng Qi frowned.

Nie Zhi shook his head and said, “It’s not that the old man wants to know this, but he must try his best to grasp the ins and outs of the whole matter, so as to avoid unexpected situations and make the place uneasy. This is the responsibility of the six sects and has to be done.”

He first said a few words in a dignified manner, and then said: “The Ruan family closed their doors for a few days, deduced the root of the blue-blooded people, and did not do anything other than send out grandmasters to search and confirm from time to time. It really makes people guess a lot.”

“At the same time, there are other abnormal things. For example, the head of the Wang family brought Luo Shu to live in the Ruan Mansion, while the eldest son Wang lived alone in the Xishan Buddhist Temple and ignored it. For example, Donghai Jianzhuang only got the invisible sword of the younger generation He Jiu and his entourage come”

Nie Zhi talked a lot, and finally said sincerely: “If the information obtained by my nephew involves confidentiality and the success or failure of the matter, it is inconvenient to disclose it, and the old man will not pursue it.”

“Little nephew, try to find out.” Reminiscent of Ruan Yaoguang’s attitude, Meng Qi was also puzzled and wanted to figure it out.

As for where to inquire, he already has an excellent candidate, Prince Wang Siyuan

If some people have a “self-destruct tendency”, then Wang Dashen stick has a tendency to “play things off”, and his mental state is very abnormal. Therefore, he often reminds deliberately in order to “play off”. Ask him and you will always get some information.

Nie Zhi left satisfied, while Meng Qi drank tea and meditated. Suddenly, he felt something in his heart and looked forward.

His vision blurred, and a gray figure appeared in front of him

He was bullied as soon as he had a premonition. With such terrifying strength, Meng Qi was fully alert and ready to go.

As far as I could see, this was a gray-robed monk with a middle-aged appearance. Simple and honest, the only pair of eyes are rolling around, revealing a bit of a thief.

“Amitabha, the poor monk quits gambling, and I have met the benefactor Su.” He put his hands together with a smile on his face.

Quit Gambling Meng Qi never thought that he had something to do with Quit Killing, because he is a well-known monk in the world

The world is vast, and there are many powerful monks, but most of them come from famous Buddhist temples. Even ascetic monks have more or less sects. onlyThis one, who seems to have no background on the surface, is a real casual monk. Being able to become a grandmaster and be on the list made many people call it incredible.

Although the background was ordinary, the monk himself gave people a sense of mystery. The dragon never saw the end, and he was addicted to gambling. I vowed to quit gambling in front of the Buddha, but I forgot the pain when my scars healed. Soon he reverted to his old ways, even if he changed his dharma name to quit gambling. It can’t be corrected either.

Logically speaking, warriors with such flaws are either hard to improve, or easy to fall into other people’s traps, but Quit Gambling has lived peacefully until now, and his strength has continued to improve. Therefore, this can be regarded as one of his mysterious evidences.

There are many rumors of a monk who quit gambling in the Jianghu. Some people say that he is a green-rank or blue-rank assassin of the Buren Building, or even the identity of the owner of the Buren Building. One of the three most mysterious sub-buildings in the building, in short, this is a monk full of mysteries.

Meng Qi returned the courtesy and said, “Master’s visit, why?”

Jie Gambled grinningly said: “I heard that Su benefactor can bring people into Lanke Temple to observe the general outline of God’s palm, old monk, no, the poor monk is very itchy, so I came here to ask for permission.”

“Bringing people there rashly may make the Bodhisattva unhappy.” Meng Qi originally planned to take Ruan Yushu and others there. The other monks in Ke Temple were angry, and they ruined their own good things in key things.

Besides, I am not close to the gambling monk, so why should I take him to

Quit Gambling put his hands together again: “The poor monk just lost completely, and his sleeves are clean, and it is difficult to exchange valuable things. Otherwise, let’s make a bet. If we lose, the poor monk will sell himself to the benefactor three times.” In 2019, if the poor monk wins by chance, please benefactors to take the poor monk to Lanke Temple.”

Betting is really a gamble, Meng Qi smiled and said: “What’s the use of having someone follow you every day, how uncomfortable?”

I have too many secrets, and following a master is purely courting death, and he is not like Master Yunhe who can hide behind the Vientiane Gate.

Before quitting gambling, Meng Qi turned to ask: “I don’t know which senior told the master that I can bring people into Lanke Temple to understand the general outline of the palm of God.”

If this matter spreads out, I will be annoyed to death.

Jie Gamble looked left and right, and said in a low voice: “The poor monk has a little friendship with He Qi, and it took him a long time to get this news. Don’t worry, no one else knows.”

“Sword Madness” He Qimengqi thought about the fact that only He Jiu and his servants came to Donghai Jianzhuang this time, smiled and said: “Master, why don’t you go back and think about it, what can impress me?”

Quitting gambling with a sad face: “The poor monk is so poor that he is the only one left”

He sighed and turned away, full of distress.

Meng Qi looked at the back of his gray robe and straw sandals, his thoughts shifted, and he began to think about the whole matter.

In the Ruan Mansion, He Jiu, who was sitting on the bed, suddenly stood up after closing her eyes for a long time, with a smile on her face, and walked out slowly, full of boldness and confidence.

“Young Master, where are you going?” His servant asked doubtfully.

He Jiu laughed: “Let’s discuss with Su Meng.”

“Why, why?” His servant’s eyes widened.

He Jiu put his hands behind his back and said with emotion: “I entered the location a year and a half earlier than him, but now I am almost on the edge of the first ladder. If I go further, I will gradually be opened by him. If I don’t take advantage of the current There is no such opportunity for a long time to learn from each other with the same realm.”

“If there is a gap in the realm, neither I nor he will be able to enjoy ourselves to the fullest. There will always be a feeling that the big bullies the small.”

His servant quickly comforted him and said: “Even if he is four calamities, you, young master, will reach the sky in one step, and there will not be much difference.”

He Jiu smiled without any grudges: “Do I, He Jiu, care about these people? He is indeed improving faster than me now, but there will be an end in the future. It may be a half-step dharma body, a dharma body, or it may be the realm of the six gods of Taoism. Walk step by step, walk steadily, and one day I will meet him at the same level again.”

Between the words, he was full of strong self-confidence.

After finishing speaking, He Jiu looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, stepped out of the room, and went straight to Sanqing Temple.

When he arrived in front of Guanmen, he saw Zhike coming up to greet him: “Benefactor He, Donor Su has known about your arrival, please go to Sanqing Hall to meet.”

“Okay.” He Jiu didn’t hide his breath along the way, and it was no surprise that Meng Qi noticed it.

Guided by Zhike, he crossed the square and entered the Sanqing Hall. As far as his eyes could see, he saw the first three statues above.

With Yuanshi Tianzun in the center, Daode Tianzun and Lingbao Tianzun are separated on both sides. Looking from left to right, they present the feeling of old age, middle age and youth respectively.

These three statues either hold jade wishful thinking, or hold a Taiji diagram, or hold a blue sword. Although there is no magic, they are carved lifelike, with wisdom, majesty, vicissitudes, and vastness. Combined with the myths and legends of the three Taoist statues, Let the hall have an unusually solemn and vast oppression.

He Jiu’s breathing subconsciously eased, his eyes moved down, and he saw Meng Qi in a black dress with his eyes half-opened and half-closed, sitting under the statue of Sanqing, deep and introverted, as if he was connected as one.
