Chapter 200: Picking up the sword on the way, the wine has not yet been opened

The Ye family is one of the top local aristocratic families, and everyone knows where the mansion is. Meng Qi found the door with almost no effort.

It is backed by the river that crosses the city, with continuous houses, shady trees, and quiet birdsong. Compared with the noisy streets of the morning market, it almost looks like a suburb. It is really a good place to find peace in the bustle.

There are nearly ten servants guarding the door of Ye Mansion. They are either big and round, or have a lot of vitality. The two leading them are both experts in the four orifices, showing the rich heritage of the family.

Meng Qi walked around the wall and found that the Ye family's defense on the outside was not as good as that of the palace and prince's mansion that had just experienced the mission. After all, the family head and important figures were all masters of the Eight or Nine Apertures, and could handle most of the raids on their own, so they only needed to guard against them. Arrange bodyguards nearby, set up tight defenses in important courtyards, follow the masters around the princes, and conduct daily patrols in the mansion. There is no need to have enlightened people guarding the outer walls every few steps.

——The number of their enlightenment masters cannot reach such a luxurious level. The imperial palace and the Prince's Mansion have concentrated most of the world's manpower and material resources.

Walking around to a hidden place covered by green trees, Meng Qi listened carefully, then raised his left hand, crossed the wall, and landed behind a rockery.

Not long after, servants patrolled by in groups. Since it was not long before dawn, they were loose and scattered. Meng Qi didn't even use the "Seal of Immortality" and watched them go away.

The "Phantom Demon Body Technique" unfolded, and Meng Qi turned into afterimages and ran towards the nearby yard.

In the courtyard, a servant was doing morning exercises, his skin was like bronze, and sweat was flowing. Suddenly, his eyes blurred, and he felt a figure in a green shirt appeared in front of him, like a ghost in the daytime. Before he could see his face clearly, he shouted: As he screamed for help, he was hit by Rongxue's acupuncture pointer and fell to the ground on his back.

Meng Qi's spirit was exuding, his hand and body seals were coordinated at the same time, and his eyes made contact with the servant.

The servant only saw a pair of dark and deep eyes. The first awakening was like a lake, calm and waveless. Upon closer inspection, it was full of whirlpools, sucking in both body and mind. The person in front of him was getting taller and bigger, terrifying and majestic, as if Gods and demons.

Meng Qi used his mute point and asked calmly: "Which courtyard is 'Ghost Shadow Sword' Li Sui in? How to get there?"

The servant could not circulate his inner energy to resist, and said in a daze: "In Lanxiang Courtyard, there are guests all around... After crossing the bridge on the opposite side, turn right and enter the third courtyard..."

He said in great detail, including that Li Sui was a master of seven orifices, and the nearby guest officials were basically six or above. Once discovered, they would be besieged.

Meng Qi had no intention of killing innocent people. After asking for the route, he directly tapped the servant's sleeping point and threw him back to his room. With his green shirt fluttering, he walked towards Lanxiang Courtyard with his hands behind his back.

Along the way, after practicing the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques and the Immortal Seal, Meng Qi's senses became sharper and his spirit became stronger. He could always detect the patrol team first and avoid them in advance. Although he was running quickly, he still had time at home. Ting Xinbu's feeling, coupled with the uniqueness of the phantom demon's movement, if anyone sees it, they will only think that they were dazzled just now and actually saw a phantom.

It didn't take long for Meng Qi to see the plaque of "Lanxiang Courtyard". Just as he was about to step in, a nearby courtyard opened with a creak, and a white-haired old man stepped out.

At least the master of Qiqiao can restrain his breath and hide his voice anytime and anywhere... Meng Qi took a step forward, his figure was like a demon, shrinking to an inch, and pointed his long sword at the white-haired old man with its sheath.

The white-haired old man did not expect to be attacked at all. He only saw a green shadow before he appeared in front of him. The pale golden scabbard reflected the golden light under the shadow of the early morning sun. The changes in light and shadow were eye-catching and coordinated. The long sword changes continuously, always phantoms, phantoms everywhere, making it difficult for people to understand and understand, and they don't know how to deal with it, because if they can't grasp every phantom and every change, they will be defeated.

He didn't have the intention to call for help. He was focused on dealing with the sword. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He stepped back repeatedly until he was leaning on the door panel. Then he clapped his palms out, which changed with the changes of the sword. difficult.

Suddenly, the shadow of the sword was withdrawn, and the long sword returned to its original state, without any change or fancy, piercing the palm of the white-haired old man's hand.

The old man couldn't stop his attack in time, so he had to use his palm force to hit the tip of the sword.

His expression changed, and he felt that the tip of the sword was empty and weak. After the palm power surged out, it was like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, without a trace.

Unable to bear the force, he staggered forward. The tip of the sword suddenly surged with great force, and the waves crashed against the shore. His inner strength felt extremely familiar!

It was at this time that his palm power was unleashed. Before the new power could rise, the true energy from the sword tip poured into his body, quickly sealing all the major points, and he fell down with a thud.

Meng Qi didn't try to hide it. He seized the moment, turned around and jumped into the Lanxiang Courtyard, heading straight to the left wing. The only sound of breathing lingering in the entire courtyard was that of a master.

The maid was walking in the courtyard carrying a copper basin when she suddenly noticed a green shadow flashing past. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.

Even during the day, she felt a chill and her scalp was numb. Wasn't it haunted?

——If he hadn't done it in the courtyard, which would alert Li Sui and give him a chance to escape, Meng Qi would definitely tap her acupuncture points.

boom!

The door was kicked open, and she looked intently and saw a green shadow flashing into Master Li Sui's room.

Li Sui was sitting cross-legged in meditation, carrying Zhou Tian, ​​with a very narrow and thin long sword placed across his knees. When he heard the sound of the door being knocked open, he grabbed the hilt of the sword and was about to jump up.

At this moment, a long sword exuding cold air pierced five inches above his head. It seemed that it had somehow missed the target and hit the empty space. But Li Sui was shocked in his heart, because after he jumped up, he would "Bumping" the tip of the sword with your eyebrows is tantamount to committing suicide.

He quickly used a thousand-jin drop to suppress his leap, and swung his sword horizontally, intending to force the enemy back.

The light of the sword is vertical and horizontal, faint and vague, but the real sword is hidden in the dark, no longer called a ghost.

The tip of Meng Qi's sword suddenly broke down, "driving" his whole body to fly into the air, with his head down and his feet up. He avoided the horizontal slash and stabbed Li Sui Baihui straight.

The posture is weird, like a demon.

Oops, I fell into a trap! Li Suigang used a thousand-jin pendant to hold himself down. Facing the sword above his head, he could no longer change. He had to grit his teeth and use his strength to lean forward and throw himself forward with the help of the sword.

At this moment, Meng Qi's long sword was released, speeding up, and penetrated the back of Li Sui's head with a pop, pinning him to the ground.

The figure turned back and floated to the ground. Meng Qi drew his sword, raised his toes, grabbed Li Sui's sword in his hand, and ran out the door.

The exchange between the two lasted for just one breath, and the maid couldn't react in time. She watched Master Li Sui die before she woke up as if from a dream:

"There's an assassin!"

The sharp sound alarmed the guests in the nearby courtyard. Some came out of the house, some went to practice, and listened to identify the direction of the sound.

Meng Qi passed by the maid and ran out of the courtyard without looking back. His green shirt was fluttering and his magic body skills were fully activated. Like a ghost, he passed by the patrolling servants and returned to the rockery where he came in.

It was not until this time that the guests arrived at Lanxiang Courtyard where Li Sui lived. They only saw a panicked maid, and Li Sui fell in the room, with blood mixed with white slowly spreading out.

Other than that, nothing in the house was damaged.

"Where is the assassin?" Someone was checking the body and someone asked urgently.

The maid was so frightened that she said tremblingly: "Kill Mr. Li and leave."

"When was he killed?" a guest asked.

"I saw him shouting when he kicked open the door and killed Mr. Li..." The maid's answer was a little off.

The guests were horrified. When they heard the maid's call, they rushed over. In just a few breaths, the assassin killed "Ghost Shadow Sword" Li Sui? He is a master of the Seven Apertures who has just become the inner world and has excellent swordsmanship!

"Chase!"

"Go and report to the head of the family!"

The guests were divided into two groups, and the man who was chasing Meng Qi found out after leaving the courtyard that he had no idea which direction to pursue!

They quickly asked the servants nearby, but no one in blue was seen.

Meng Qi jumped out of the outer wall, dodged into a nearby street, put Li Sui's sword into the package where Xie Jie was, inserted the ice bridge, and Shi Shiran walked to Wufeng Tower. There were more and more pedestrians on the street, and the morning market was bustling.

After he took a few steps, there were shouts of surprise, shouts and questions, and the sounds of running outside the Ye Mansion, making it appear that the army was in chaos.

Hey, Meng Qi smiled, walked slowly and slowly, and turned into the street leading to Wufeng Tower.

By the time the Ye family assigned good men and chased him out of the mansion, Meng Qi's back had long since disappeared. There were many men in green shirts and swords on the street.

Carrying the sauced beef and pig head meat, Meng Qi quickly returned to the nearby Huanhua Rice Shop. The Ye family had not yet searched here, and were still investigating the Qingshan Swordsman near Ye Mansion.

"Here, here's a pack for you." Meng Qi greeted with a smile and threw a specially separated pack of meat to the shopkeeper and waiter.

The shopkeeper and the waiter quickly thanked him, feeling that Boss Qi's cousin was much more generous than his cousin.

After entering the courtyard and opening the door, Meng Qi saw Qi Zhengyan wiping the dust on the wine jar, which was obviously from years of aging.

He opened the red paper seal, and a scent of sweet-scented osmanthus and wine overflowed, making Meng Qi couldn't help but take a few more breaths.

"Come back so soon?" Qi Zhengyan asked casually. He felt that Meng Qi was unfamiliar with the place and it would take some time to find the way.

Meng Qi smiled and put down the pork head and beef with soy sauce, sat down swaggeringly, poured himself a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed rice, drank it in one gulp, then put a piece of pork head and soy beef into his mouth and chewed one, one was fat but not greasy, the other was chewy. It's full of energy and is indeed delicious.

"Good wine! Good meat!" He praised, unwrapped the package, took out Li Suizhi's sword, put it on the table, looked at Qi Zhengyan with a smile, "I stopped by to pick up a sword."

Qi Zhengyan took a closer look at the sword on the table, his eyes suddenly froze and his pupils shrank.
