Chapter 168 Attack
Meng Qi almost laughed, and suddenly felt that Ruan Yushu's image was much more friendly.
"What you did just now was really unpredictable and powerful!" Meng Qi's senses changed, and he was no longer so embarrassed, and he sincerely praised him.
Ruan Yushu nodded without humility, looking slightly satisfied.
She swallowed the food in her mouth, took out a handkerchief, and wiped her mouth: "It's a pity that I didn't see you take action."
"Why?" Meng Qi asked a little sheepishly.
"You are about the same age as me, and you are also in the realm of Four Apertures, but you are on the list of people. There must be something special." After Meng Qi's soft talk, Ruan Yushu spoke a little more.
"That's right." Meng Qi said in a very comfortable mood.
Ruan Yushu said calmly and calmly: "I wonder what kind of style the Thunder Sword Mad Monk or the Mang King Kong will be like?"
Meng Qi's smile fell: "This is a rumor spread by people in the world. How can I be a crazy monk? To be honest, my demeanor and temperament are pretty good."
I can only boast with a blushing face.
Ruan Yushu picked up the bamboo chopsticks again, picked up the remaining food, looked down, lowered his head slightly, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in a neither loud nor quiet voice: "There are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames."
Listen to my explanation, it's really not like this... Meng Qi's expression suddenly froze, and he shouted crazily in his heart.
…………
When they returned to the cabin where they met, Lu Zhongqi was already waiting there, nodded and said: "There are rumors outside that Gaotong died of a sudden illness, but I believe it is not such a coincidence. Brother Xiao Meng, Miss Ruan, you have really eliminated our worries for me. I will take you to see Lu Shuai.”
Lu Guan has been demoted to this place for many years. Some of the accompanying sons and daughters have already started families here and have offspring. Although they have already made arrangements to hide and escape, there is still a high chance that Gaotong is a local snake in the west of Vietnam. So if Without him, Lu Zhongqi and others would find it difficult to escort Lu Guan to Beijing with peace of mind.
While speaking, his eyes swept over the lyre held by Ruan Yushu, his expression thoughtful.
He has followed Lu Guan for many years and is very experienced in observing people and events. He does not think that Xiao Meng, a cold and taciturn swordsman, can kill Gaotong so strangely. However, there are almost no people in the world who use lyres as weapons. The girl surnamed Ruan The means must be special.
"It's just a fluke." Meng Qi replied briefly, and Ruan Yushu maintained a cool and refined feeling, nodding slightly without saying a word.
Without saying much, Lu Zhongqi led the two of them to a busy street in the city and entered a grocery store on the street.
He walked directly through the grocery store and entered the yard behind it. The shopkeepers and waiters in the store didn't look away and turned a blind eye.
In the courtyard, there were about a dozen people with swords and swords. They were men and women. They were divided into three or four piles, each talking gossip.
Seeing Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu coming in with Lu Zhong, they all looked over in shock, not for anything else, but because they didn't expect the new companions to be so young. One was seventeen or eighteen years old, and the other was fifteen or sixteen years old. He is still a young boy with yellow hair, how strong can he be?
Lu Zhongqi nodded at them, walked straight over, and led Meng Qi and the two to the study.
"Shuai Lu defeated the Westerners many times and regained the mountains and rivers, but he was framed by a traitor and demoted to this place, which made many heroes admired and indignant. After word spread about his trip to Beijing, many friends came to escort him, but there were too many people. It is easy to leak information because of the loose tongue, and some heroes are not very strong. If they are allowed to join, their lives will be ruined." On the way to the study, Lu Zhongqi introduced casually, "So I always observe the strength, set up tests, and politely refuse. He has lost most of his friends, and the remaining dozen are all highly skilled in martial arts and trustworthy."
This is what it should be... Meng Qi nodded coldly. If he turned the escort to Beijing into a farce, how many nails could he hit even if he was made of iron?
After passing through the road guarded by several family members, they arrived in front of the study, and Lu Zhongqi knocked on the door respectfully.
"Zhong Qi, come in." Lu Guan's tired but firm voice sounded. Although he was not a master, he still had good martial arts attainments.
Lu Zhongqi pushed open the door and signaled Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu to wait a moment. After entering to report a few words, he came out and invited them in.
"Two friends are so righteous, Lu is really embarrassed." Lu Guan said politely.
He is seven feet tall, with dark skin and a long beard. The most outstanding thing about his face is his eyes, which are bright, energetic and firm. His overall temperament is elegant yet tough.
Meng Qi cupped his hands and said: "Commander Lu is a hero in the world. He serves the country and the people. He is a great hero. We are willing to go through fire and water."
He didn't make small talk either and kept his words concise and to the point.
"He who serves the country and the people is a great chivalrous person..." Lu Guan's expression changed and he repeated this sentence in a low voice.
"Okay, Commander Lu is the worthy hero!" There were two people beside Lu Guan, one was an old man in brocade robes, with a graceful bearing, and the other was a Taoist priest with a negative sword, a lion's nose and tiger's eyes. He was the one who spoke.
Lu Zhongqi smiled and pointed at the Taoist priest: "'Senior Tiger Taoist' Jin Yanjin."
Then he turned to the man in brocade robes and said, "Master Jiao Chong Jiao of Guanshui Tower."
Meng Qi could guess with his toes that Hu Taoist and Jiao Chong were the top masters among this group of Jianghu people, and perhaps the most famous, so they almost became the leaders of the Jianghu people and personally protected Lu Guan.
After greeting each other, the impassioned Taoist Hu praised: "The two young friends have such skills at such a young age. They are really formidable. But what I admire the most is that you know the righteousness and understand the greatness of a knight. You are not afraid of danger and come here." Help, a hero emerges!”
Jiao Chong also smiled and said: "I haven't seen such an outstanding young man in many years. Your future will be limitless."
As senior masters, the two of them praised each other half-heartedly and half-falsely, while Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu, both false and true, were both cold and taciturn people in front of strangers, and expressed their gratitude with every word.
Lu Guan came back to his senses and sighed: "A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people. Lu deserves it. His heart is at the border, but he is old and traveling to the west. He has wasted his years."
Taoist Hu said loudly: "Commander Lu, when you enter the capital this time, you will definitely display your lifelong ambition to defeat the Western captives externally, eliminate the traitors internally, and restore peace to the emperor and the people of the world!"
Lu Guan's expression became determined: "This is a difficult matter, but Lu has never regretted it."
After thanking the two for killing Gaotong, Lu Guan asked Lu Zhongqi to properly arrange for the two martyrs.
Lu Zhongqi originally planned to let them join other Jianghu people to patrol and guard in a detachment, but considering that the two of them were taciturn, one was indifferent, and the other was cold, and seemed difficult to get along with others, he simply let them follow him.
A few days later, Meng Qi and his party quietly left Yuexi to protect Lu Guan as he went to Beijing.
…………
In the courtyard where he stayed overnight, Meng Qi pulled out the "Evil Tribulation" and slowly used the Five Tigers' Door-Breaking Sword Technique and the Blood Sword Technique.
These two sword skills are the basis of his sword skills, and he is the most deeply immersed in them. Now after reading the essence of the general outline of the Heavenly Sword, and using it again, I have a different feeling, as if I understand something, but also as if I understand nothing.
He moved very slowly, pausing from time to time, thinking while moving the knife. He looked clumsy and jerky in his knife skills, as if he had just started.
"The essence of the general outline of Heavenly Sword indeed contains the summary of Song Que's life's swordsmanship. It is very difficult to understand clearly..." At this moment, Meng Qi was very envious of Kou Zhong in "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" for being able to meet him face to face. After fighting against Song Que with the Heavenly Sword, he had to sharpen his guidance and use the sword's power to stimulate his potential. In a short period of time, he was truly introduced to the way of the sword, but he had to hold the secret book, practice hard day and night, and figure it out with difficulty.
In comparison, perhaps due to the inheritance of the Thunder God Mark and Shen Xiao Jiu Mie, his own "Thunder Words" practice has been advancing rapidly, and now he has achieved a small success.
"Xiao Meng, have you just learned your sword skills?" Taoist Hu and Jiao Chong took turns protecting Lu Guan. When they came out for air, they happened to see Meng Qi practicing his sword. It was a pity that the long sword was made of extraordinary material.
"No, I'm just trying to figure it out." Meng Qi's expression was cold but polite.
Taoist Hu smiled, without comment, and asked: "Xiao Meng, you seem to be good at swordsmanship, but why have I never seen you practicing swordsmanship?"
Meng Qi raised his head slightly: "This sword will draw blood when it is unsheathed."
The swordsman's arrogant and confident temperament is fully revealed.
Hu Taoist's face twitched and he walked to the other side.
The heroes of the world and the children of the Lu family who were resting around them all couldn't hide their smiles.
Meng Qi didn't care about this. No matter what they thought, at least they would attach great importance to his swordsmanship in their hearts. They must think that his swordsmanship was stronger than that of someone who had just started. This way, his image was established.
Ruan Yushu wandered out from nowhere and saw Meng Qi practicing his sword skills in slow motion.
She watched thoughtfully for a while, then transmitted the voice into the secret channel: "Is your swordsmanship at its bottleneck?"
"Yeah." Meng Qi nodded. It's not surprising that Ruan Yushu's family background can be seen.
"If it's a breakthrough, the sword technique is close to the truth, and you also know the 'Ananda Breaking the Precepts sword technique." Ruan Yushu has no doubts about the strength of Meng Qi's sword technique, and still transmits the message into the secret, "No wonder you can be on the list of people."
Meng Qi was quite proud and proud to be on the list, with a smile on his face.
"I heard that throughout the ages, only a few eminent monks in Shaolin have truly mastered this sword technique and mastered its true meaning?" Ruan Yushu seemed a little curious.
Meng Qi nodded lightly: "Yes."
There are more and more desul.
Ruan Yushu frowned slightly and said: "It seems that most of them broke the precepts first, but in the end they entered Buddhism and truly became eminent monks. Will you still be a monk in the future?"
Meng Qi's face turned dark at that time.
Ruan Yushu carried the lyre on his back, put his hands behind his back, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and walked back to the room.
At this time, the son of the Lu family who had gone shopping returned with wine and food, and her pace suddenly slowed down.
As usual, they carefully examined the toxins and brought in a black dog to taste each item.
After a while, the black dog was still fine, and then some people took away their own portions of food and wine, leaving the rest for the group that was patrolling and guarding.
Meng Qi was about to step forward when he saw Ruan Yushu standing there stunned.
The foodie didn't move, which was strange... Meng Qi returned the "evil calamity" sheath and asked doubtfully: "Miss Ruan, why don't you go?"
Ruan Yushu frowned slightly, with a hint of confusion: "It doesn't seem to taste good, it's a bit strange."
As soon as he finished speaking, several people were seen covering their throats. He He made a sound and fell down with a black face in the blink of an eye.
And the black dog is still alive and kicking.
"Poisoning? This kind of poisoning ability..." Meng Qi's pupils shrank slightly.
