Chapter 603 Manhunt
Meng Qi moved his regrown left hand and felt that the meridians, skin, muscles and even the acupuncture points were all the same as before. There was no need to practice again. It was just a little jerky in operation. After a little familiarity, it should be intact as before.
As expected of a Dharmakaya-level "flesh and spirit"... Meng Qi secretly praised, looked at the middle-aged man with a smile, and returned the favor:
"Thank you."
He has a humble attitude and is not arrogant because he is the "Junzi" of the Mohist school. It seems that the difference between the two parties is only their job, not their status.
Regarding Meng Qi's attitude, the middle-aged man was surprised and happy at first, and felt extremely honored. Then he realized clearly that saying "loving both Tao and Tao" can't just stay in words. Knowing and doing must be unified. "Juzi" should be a true example !
Qi Zhengyan also returned the courtesy and asked the name of the middle-aged man. The five of them had different divisions of labor. Except for Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu, who were directly responsible for the Mohist affairs, there were quite a few Mohists whom the other three did not know.
Of course, the Mo who has a secret identity is usually verified and recommended by the five of them, and Bai Song, Zhao Bai and others do not know about it to avoid being exposed.
"I am Yan Kuan." The middle-aged man said his name, "I am a Mohist developed by Juzi and Mr. Ruan, and is not known to others."
In other words, unless Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu are caught, he is not afraid of being followed.
Development... Qi Zhengyan frowned. Although Meng Qi often used this word, he always felt it was weird to use it here.
Meng Qi finished the treatment, stood up and said: "Brother Yan, please go out and find out the news and see what the situation is now."
"You're so polite, Junzi. I'll go right away." Yan Kuan exited the kitchen and went out as if nothing happened.
"A nobleman with a position is the last person to be suspected of being a Mohist." Meng Qi introduced Qi Zhengyan with a smile, "But he has read ancient books and understood the general trend of the world. He has long been desperate for nobles and hopes to appear. Reform is the only way to end the chaotic and cruel world. After hearing our lectures, he came to our door quietly, hoping to become a secret Mohist and help us reform. "
Speaking of this, he said with emotion: "Although there is no class that betrays its own interests, there will eventually be individuals who betray their own class..."
"What did you say?" Qi Zhengyan was confused. Ever since he started this task, he found that Junior Brother Meng could always come up with strange concepts and words, which was surprising and surprising.
Meng Qi curled his lips and said with a soft smile, "It's nothing."
It is difficult for people who have not gone through the "nine years of compulsory education" to understand!
He responded perfunctorily, and Qi Zhengyan didn't care. He didn't care about these things at all.
After waiting for a while, Yan Kuan cautiously returned to the kitchen, glanced at Meng Qi and the others, and said in a deep voice: "There are small teams of troops guarding every street corner to prevent pedestrians from going to the streets. It's said that it's Junzi and you because of your relationship with the king. There were disagreements over the reform, and there was a dispute. They violently killed people and escaped into the city. Now the formation is activated to isolate the inside and outside, and the whole city will be raided! "
"It is said that there are still strong people out of the city to hunt for them!"
Because they have to coordinate the formation and hunt down extraordinary bandits, the world of Fengshen has extremely high requirements for soldiers, and they have to be skilled at everything. Therefore, their number must be small, so they can only seal off the main roads first, search one by one, and search in mid-air. There are several exterior scenes floating around. Wherever there is a fight, you can immediately notice it.
"Hey, we are indeed framed." Meng Qi sneered. Although his expression did not change, his eyes turned cold.
From this point of view, King Chen may be in danger!
King Chen trusted and valued us, but it ended up like this. If I don’t kill Boren, Boren will die because of me!
It would be unworthy of a gentleman not to avenge this!
A surging unknown fire rose in his heart, and he secretly made up his mind.
Qi Zhengyan's face was expressionless, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his left hand that was not holding the sword subconsciously clenched into a fist.
Yan Kuan sighed: "Your Majesty is working hard to govern, but, alas, they are really shameless. Juzi, you have no foundation in Chendi. Everything depends on the King. However, the reform is going smoothly, the benefits are beginning to show, and there are no obstacles for the time being. How can it happen?" How could a dispute lead to violence and murder? "
The most important thing is that Junzi and the others are still young and have not reached the first level of the ladder. Even if they have the secret treasure, how can they kill the master-level monarch?
He paused, his expression becoming more and more sad: "I heard that many brothers from the Mo family were imprisoned. Fortunately, Mr. Bai, Mr. Zhao and Mr. Wang escaped by luck."
Many public figures of ink have been arrested? Meng Qi took a deep breath and suppressed the roiling emotions.
This matter must not stop here!
Although I and others preached in order to complete their mission, it had changed their lives and won their respect, belief and practice. They couldn't turn a blind eye to it, both emotionally and rationally?
If there is really no chance to save them, there will be "rich rewards" in the future!
"Fortunately, Bai Song and the others, who have mastered most of the list of Mohists, saw the opportunity quickly..." After suppressing his emotions, Meng Qi felt a little lucky. If the three of them were also caught, the entire Mohist organization would have suffered a devastating blow. Now, Most ink practitioners are not visible and can go into the dark.
At this moment, the three people with extremely strong ears vaguely heard the noise on the street.
Looking at each other, Yan Kuan said through a message: "I'll have a look later."
There are currently no soldiers on the street, and many officials and scholars have sent their families to investigate.
When Yan Kuan went out, Meng Qi sighed: "We were negligent. We were not vigilant enough about Jinguang Cave and did not protect King Chen enough."
It's hard to say he was negligent. He was just expressing his annoyance.
As for the master who shot the golden arrow in the palace, although Meng Qi didn't know who it was, based on the news that Gongyang Bo returned home from the golden cave yesterday, he was basically sure of its origin.
"King Chen is a master and a king. He has many treasures and is far stronger than us. He has always protected us. It is really difficult for us to protect him." Qi Zhengyan said with relief, "The main reason is the Golden Light Cave. According to past records, the secret The Taoist sect hardly interferes with such trivial matters that do not substantially shake the foundation of the nobility. Who would have thought that they would directly send a powerful master here, and they would do so brilliantly!"
Normally, if Jinguangdong wanted to intervene, he would send an envoy to warn King Chen that with their strength and influence, King Chen would inevitably compromise. This was Meng Qi's initial worry, but who knew that Jinguangdong was completely acting against common sense, like He has a deep hatred and wants to kill them all!
Meng Qi nodded: "The Jinguang Cave's actions are strange and abnormal. There must be a deep meaning. I don't know what the intention is..."
As he spoke, his expression became solemn: "No matter how strong they are, one day we will let them give an 'explanation' and report to King Chen!"
"There is also Mo Zhe who was caught in prison. If we can't save him..." Qi Zhengyan's voice gradually became lower.
"Don't give up lightly first, let's see if there is a chance." Meng Qi waved his hand, "But first we have to avoid the big ropes in the city."
With the transformation power of the Eight-nine Mysterious Techniques, unless the city is directly destroyed or there is a strange treasure, the above camp is a city with a large population and many creatures. If there are ten more masters, Meng Qi is sure to easily get through. The worry is that Although Qi Zhengyan, Jiang Zhiwei and others can disguise themselves and hide their presence, they cannot change. If the upper camp is kept sealed and soldiers search house to house, the chances of being discovered are high.
Fortunately, there are now many merchants in Shangying, and there are many people with backgrounds. There is no way to block them for a long time... Meng Qi quietly let out a breath.
At this time, Yan Kuan returned to the kitchen, his face slightly anxious: "They are almost here!"
Search here directly? Meng Qi and Qi Zhengyan were shocked at first, and then relieved. Meng Qi was injured and escaped with fire, so it was inevitable that he would leave some clues or aura behind.
Yan Kuan took a breath and added: "Furthermore, 'Da Sikong' Gongyang has an order. People in the house must gather in one place and identify each other to avoid hiding anyone. If it is a slave, the master must produce the corresponding documents. If it is a family member, verify the household registration to prevent counterfeiting.”
This... is really rigorous and careful! Meng Qi found out that he had underestimated Gong Yangzeng, which immediately stopped the two of them pretending to be slaves, and Yan Kuan covered up the search.
Seeing Yan Kuan's impatience, Meng Qi chuckled and said, "Don't worry about this little Dao'er. Just feel free to let them search."
His confident and calm attitude eased Yan Kuan's worries, stabilized his mood, and went out to gather his family and servants, waiting for the soldiers to come.
Qi Zhengyan knows eighty-nine abilities and is also calm.
After a while, a group of wolf-like soldiers came in under the leadership of the general. Because Yan Kuan was a noble, they had a more amiable attitude. While leaving some manpower in the hall to conduct identification and verification, they divided into several small teams and searched the Yan family separately. Premises.
On the tree opposite the hall, an ordinary bird watched all this quietly, paying particular attention to the division of the search ranges of several teams.
When they separated, the bird spread its wings and flew straight into the kitchen, transforming back into Meng Qi himself.
"Let's move to that house." Meng Qi secretly transmitted the message. Before the soldiers came to search for him, he and Qi Zhengyan concealed their presence, carefully avoiding the induction of the mid-air exterior scene, and sneaked into the selected house.
After half a stick of incense, a team searched the surroundings. Just as they were about to approach the room, they suddenly saw the door open and a colleague they "knew" walked out. He sighed: "There is none here."
"Yeah." They nodded and turned to search other places within their range.
Meng Qi smiled and pretended to turn around to talk to the team members, waiting for them to leave.
After waiting for a while, the team from the other direction came over. Before they even got close, they saw the door open, and a familiar colleague shook his head and came out.
Seeing that they were indeed searching for nearby colleagues, they had no doubts and changed their direction.
After a stick of incense, the Yan family's house returned to peace, which made Yan Kuan wonder, how did Junzi and the others hide?
"Given the slightly chaotic situation just now, even if the soldiers communicated privately, it would be difficult to detect." Meng Qi looked at Qi Zhengyan and said, "We have escaped initially. Next, I have to try to leave the city."
"Leave the city?" Qi Zhengyan asked doubtfully, "Now that the formation has been deployed to isolate the inside and outside, how can we get out of the city?"
Meng Qi took a breath: "As long as traces of 'us' appear outside the city, the search in the city will naturally stop, everyone will be safe, and there will still be a chance to rob the Mohist from the prison."
A plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain!
"As for the large formation that isolates the inside and outside..." Meng Qi chuckled, with a stern look on his face, "The strong men on location who went out to pursue pursuits in the city must come back, right?"
…………
At Siko Tian Heng's house, Zhao Heng was hiding in Tian Kuo's room and had no worries about the search.
According to the plan, he initially hid with the help of a certain Mohist in Tian Mansion, and then moved over after Tian Kuo returned home.
"Are you okay?" Zhao Heng looked at Tian Kuo, fearing that he would be suspected.
Tian Kuo smiled: "It's okay, they don't know that I am related to the Mo family, and father, hey, he only has one son like me! And he still doesn't know that I participated in this matter."
"How could Tian Sikou participate in this secret operation?" Zhao Heng was puzzled. How could the leader of such a secret operation not be aware of the participants?
Tian Kuo frowned: "I didn't know about this originally, but I was reminded by an old Taoist priest in the prison. I went home and inquired secretly, and then I found out that Guo had a plot. So I relied on my identity to make other uncles think that my father had agreed. Successfully Blended into the team.”
He is Xiao Sikou and is currently in charge of the cell.
"Old Taoist priest?" Zhao Heng became more and more strange the more he listened.
Tian Kuo curled his lips and said: "An old Taoist priest who talks about things very accurately. He makes a living by doing this. I don't know why he accidentally hurt someone a few days ago and was imprisoned. I have nothing to do. I'm looking for you." He made a fortune."
