Chapter 201: Treat others the way they do

Qi Zhengyan's expression was out of control and extremely exciting. He was silent for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Ghost Shadow Sword?"

"Yes." Meng Qi drank and ate meat with an indifferent expression.

Qi Zhengyan was silent again and did not ask about Li Sui's fate. He was famous for his ghost sword. The sword never left his body. If the sword was used again, he would be either crippled or dead. There was no significant difference between the two.

Calculating carefully, deducting the time Meng Qi spent going to Wufenglou to buy pig head meat and soy sauce beef, he went to Ye Mansion, killed Li Sui, and left in a hurry, with only half a cup of tea in total! This was still a situation where he was fully active on the road instead of going leisurely. Otherwise, wouldn't he have killed Li Sui as soon as he met him and walked away before everyone could react?

Li Sui is a swordsman who has been famous for many years. His seven orifices have been opened and he has a small degree of success in the inner world. If he can kill him in one or two moves, his strength will definitely exceed that of some nine orifices!

"I just found this jar of wine from the cellar..." He said in a low voice, stretched out his hand to take Li Sui's Ghost Shadow Sword, and fumbled with the edge of the sword. It was the sword that broke his cousin's hand tendons and hamstrings. He had ended his path to martial arts. If his next reincarnation was not a death mission, he would have planned to find some medicine that could heal this injury.

"Hehe." Meng Qi laughed. What he wanted was Qi Zhengyan's reaction. The wine was not opened, the person was killed, and the blood was not cold. This is the style of a swordsman.

He enjoys these feelings, but he doesn't pay a big price for them. He usually does it according to the trend and can't forget it. He is always relatively rational and clear-headed in his heart, and he will never exchange for some flashy things just to show off. Or something that comes naturally sooner or later.

Qi Zhengyan handed the Ghost Shadow Sword back to Meng Qi, which was his trophy: "Li Sui was killed, and you are here for the first time. The Ye family will definitely suspect us."

"What are you afraid of?" Meng Qi didn't care much and poured another bowl of wine. The sweet-scented osmanthus brew was sweet in the mouth and spicy in the mouth. It was a good wine.

Qi Zhengyan looked at him doubtfully, wondering why he didn't take it to heart at all.

Meng Qi drank some wine, picked up a broad bean prepared by Qi Zhengyan, chewed it a few times, and then said, "Cousin, you don't have the consciousness of a disciple of a big sect."

"Huh?" Qi Zhengyan frowned slightly.

Meng Qi laughed and said: "Huanhua Sword Sect is not a pure place of Buddhism like Shaolin. It must focus on teachings and classics and will definitely protect its own secular interests first."

"You are a symbol of the Huanhua Sword Sect in Yicheng. Although you have no right or power to ask the Ye family to make friends with you, you can only watch them protect the murderer. After all, your cousin is not a disciple of the Huanhua Sword Sect, but if the reverse is true How could they dare to come and force you to surrender? This is tantamount to declaring war on the Huanhua Sword Sect. Even Zhou Junwang's family would not dare to risk such a full-scale conflict, and they would not want to provoke the Six Sects! Things are going big.”

"As for the assassination, I'm afraid they don't dare to do it now. It's not a calm situation at this time. It's not like you can secretly find a left-handed master, kill Yuan Yuan, let the Huanhua Sword Sect chase you, and hide it from the outside. If something happens to you now, the door will be closed. Someone will definitely be sent here, and when they find out, they will point directly at the Ye family."

"No matter what your uncle's intentions are or what benefits he has received, if the leader of the party is killed, he will never be able to hide it anymore. Paper can't keep the fire."

Qi Zhengyan nodded slightly, still a little doubtful and said: "If there are witnesses and evidence to testify against you..."

"Haha." Meng Qi smiled and shook his head, "When your cousin was picked apart in front of everyone, what did the Ye family say? They accused you of false accusations and bribed witnesses! Now this sentence can be used as it is. Throw it in their face, I hope they don't dare to make a big fuss and let the Huanhua Sword Sect send more people."

"Disciples of the great sect, if they are afraid of this or that, they will only feel easy to bully. Only by being strong can they remember the Huanhua Sword Sect behind you, the magic weapons of the town sect, and the many powerful people in the field."

Qi Zhengyan said with relief: "I am an ordinary disciple inside the sect. I have always been cautious and cautious in doing things. The same is true when I am outside, but I have forgotten the status and reputation of my sect."

Meng Qi drank another bowl of wine: "Cousin, don't worry. To put it bluntly, if the Huanhua Sword Sect doesn't even support similar things, then why do you bother to stay in such a popular sect? Follow me around the world as soon as possible. Let's settle the matter happily."

"I do believe that our sect will protect our disciples." Qi Zhengyan looked slightly relaxed. To be honest, he was not strong before and was afraid that the sect would send helpers. Instead, he discovered his secret, but now he has his "cousin" Xiao Meng , when encountering something that needs to be done openly, let him come forward, and the risk of exposing himself will be greatly reduced.

Meng Qi's internal energy has reached a high level, and he is just drinking sweet-scented osmanthus wine. The more he drinks, the brighter his eyes become: "Cousin, your uncle is having trouble doing things. Is it because he is timid or for some other reason?"

"Perhaps he is getting older and thinking about retreat and retirement." Qi Zhengyan guessed.

If you do the main thing to make money, you will definitely get a lot of money. If you are in the know, you will also enjoy it. And you don’t dare to go too far or be too blatant, otherwise it will be easy to be discovered. In one year, you can buy dozens of acres of land and build a new house. , Even if it is good, even if Qi Zhengyan's uncle occupies good fields and shops, since there are no mines, medicine gardens and weapon refining workshops here, there will not be much more than him. Therefore, if you want to give it to him after he gets old and frail. If your children and grandchildren want to leave a wealthy family, you have to find another way.

"That's right, well, it's also possible that he is old and dim. He wants to put things to rest, and thinks that he can solve the Tang family's affairs. He is afraid that if he reports it to the police, he will be suspected of being incompetent and be transferred away." Meng Qi nodded lightly.

This kind of action to eliminate the power of the Huanhua Sword Sect will definitely not resort to overt violence. Otherwise, even though the city is backed by the Wang family in Yedu and is quite far away from Sixiu Mountain where the Huanhua Sword Sect is located, the Huanhua Sword Sect will In order to save face, they had to send people to support them, so they had to gather other forces first and squeeze out the Huanhua Sword Sect's forces with uncooperative cold violence.

In this way, the Huanhua Sword Sect can live a decent life. There are only fields, manors and ordinary shops here, which are not important. They often pinch their noses and acquiesce. At most, they blame the leader for being incompetent and not having good dealings with the local forces.

Qi Zhengyan's uncle was willing to take the risk of being punished later, but also wanted to suppress the matter and maintain stability. Apart from his ulterior motives, the only explanation was old and foolish.

Qi Zhengyan nodded, agreeing with Meng Qi's words.

"Anyway, if things show signs of corruption, cousin, please bypass my uncle and reply directly to the door." Meng Qi ate meat and drank wine from a large bowl.

Qi Zhengyan's expressionless face showed a wry smile: "To be honest, if there is no other choice, I don't want to send anyone from the sect."

When the time comes, the person sent to suppress the situation will definitely be strong, and may even be on location. If he later says, "Xiao Qi, you are quite calm in your work, my uncle will show you two moves", or "Xiao Meng, you My swordsmanship is outstanding and makes people tick. Why don't I suppress my strength and compete with you in a sword show? Hey, how can you know the golden bell..." This will be troublesome.

Meng Qi nodded heavily: "If we can solve it ourselves, of course we don't want to disturb the mountain. It's just a last resort and a worrying background."

While he was talking, it suddenly became noisy outside. A clerk knocked on the door and came in, saying in a panic: "Master Qi, the Ye family is here to hunt down the murderer!"

He took a peek at Meng Qi with fear, curiosity and awe. Chief Qi's cousin actually killed the Ghost Sword Li Sui without saying a word. He was still in the Ye Mansion. Such strength and courage were too much. It’s terrible!

Could it be that he came here specifically to avenge his relatives?

Chief Qi’s cousin, what should he be called...

Qi Zhengyan and Meng Qi discussed for a while. At this time, he felt confident. He stood up expressionlessly and said lightly: "You guys will tell the Ye family later that my cousin has never left the house."

"Yes, Chief Qi." The clerk replied hurriedly.

Meng Qi did not change his clothes, patted the dust on his body, and followed Qi Zhengyan out of the backyard and outside the shop.

There were dozens of people standing outside the door, and many of them looked like they were highly skilled in martial arts. The leader was a young man in splendid clothes and jade robes. He was in his mid-twenties, with makeup on his face and vicious eyes.

When he saw Meng Qi wearing a green shirt, he pointed directly at him and asked the maid, servant and guest next to him: "Is it him?"

The maids and servants saw Meng Qi's appearance and were speechless. They didn't know how to answer. The young master glared at him and said quickly: "It's him, he killed Mr. Li!"

The young master turned to look at Qi Zhengyan, and said with a serious face: "Master Qi, why did you send someone to sneak into the Ye Mansion and kill my guest? Is this the way the Huanhua Sword Sect does things?"

Qi Zhengyan walked down the steps slowly, his momentum so calm that the young master couldn't help but take a step back. Why, after not seeing him for a few days, Master Qi gave people a completely different feeling.

"You are making excuses and looking for someone to frame my cousin." Qi Zhengyan said coldly without asking any questions.

The young master was stunned, and then became furious: "There are all the witnesses and material evidence. Are you saying it's a false accusation?"

"Of course, I personally accompany my cousin and never leave him, don't you think so?" Qi Zhengyan turned around and said to the shopkeeper.

His eyes were cold, and the shopkeeper didn't dare not answer: "Yes, Chief Qi's cousin has never left Mipu."

"Young Master Ye, did you hear that? If you frame my cousin again, don't blame me for being ruthless." Qi Zhengyan looked at Young Master Ye coldly.

Young Master Ye gritted his teeth and said, "It doesn't matter what you say, follow me to see the official!"

"How can an innocent person be seen by an official? Even if the county magistrate and the arrester come in person, they can't frame my cousin!" Qi Zhengyan's expression did not change.

"Okay, okay! Catch him and go to Liumen!" Young Master Ye was furious and pointed at Meng Qi.

The master next to him was about to jump out. Qi Zhengyan took a step forward and looked around them:

"This is the land of the Huanhua Sword Sect. Do you want to take action?"

He took another step and shouted without any emotion:

"Do you want to become enemies of our sect?"

"You want to declare war on our faction?"

His momentum was so overwhelming that Young Master Ye and the masters beside him took a few steps back. Only then did they remember the identity of the other party, the leader of the Huanhua Sword Sect!

Just when Mr. Ye wanted to say something, Meng Qi suddenly smiled, looked at him and said, "Mr. Ye, when my cousin's hand and hamstrings were broken, it was you who accused him of Luo Zhi and framed him. Li Sui?"

Young Master Ye was about to answer, but when he saw Meng Qi's smileless smile, his heart suddenly became cold. He thought of Li Sui who lived deep in Ye Mansion but was brutally killed. He swallowed hard, snorted coldly, and turned his head. Then he walked away, walking very fast, as if he was trying to get rid of some evil spirit possessing him.

"Cousin, I'm not afraid. You have to be careful of the Ye family's revenge when you go out in the future. After all, they have the clan's most valuable soldiers." Qi Zhengyan warned, worried about Meng Qituo.

Just as Meng Qi was about to answer, there were sounds of crying on the street, but it was a group of people hugging the carriage and crying while walking.

"The Wan family?" Qi Zhengyan muttered to himself in confusion and asked a waiter to go over and inquire.

After a while, the waiter returned: "Reporting to Chief Qi, Prince Wan was killed on the river, and his bodyguards returned home with his body guarded. It is said that Prince Tang was also there at the time, but he was injured by an assassin and fell into the water. His life or death is uncertain. "

When Young Master Wan went out to do business, he naturally had a bodyguard. However, at that time, he felt that there was no need for protection and it was inconvenient to discuss matters with the master Tang Ergong beside him, so he did not call them. After he was killed, the bodyguards came and collected the body.

Returning to the city, they waited until dawn. They first sent someone home to inform them, and after receiving a response, they escorted the body into the city, which was much slower than Meng Qi.
