Aggrieved Fish Sprite

Chapter 144 -------

In the end, Mo Li left Fengxing Pavilion with a complicated mood, holding the 50 taels of silver notes.

He felt that since Meng Qi regained his memory, he seemed to have become...well, escaped a lot.

Looking at Meng Qi who was leading the way ahead, Mo Li couldn't help calling out: "Brother Meng."

Meng Qi turned around in response. He was wearing unremarkable clothes and a bamboo hat. At first glance, he seemed to have returned to the situation when they were driving in the countryside of Pingzhou. Even if someone passed them, it was difficult to notice Meng Qi.

"What's the matter, sir?"

"..."

Lu Min didn't know that this was the influence of a person with advanced martial arts back to basics. He thought that Meng Qi could do tricks. He opened and closed his mouth, and then opened it again, looking dumbfounded.

Mo Li directly asked what was on his mind: "Brother Meng, why doesn't he keep doing this so as not to attract the attention of others."

"The doctor has seen it with his own eyes, don't you know?" Meng Qi sighed and hinted, "When martial arts reach the realm of perfection, it is only to understand all phenomena in the world, and it cannot be integrated in the end."

The ink carps are a little inexplicable, they are the dragon veins, the spirits of mountains and rivers.

Strictly speaking, it is indeed not everything in the world, because it does not affect the rising of the sun, the setting of the moon, the wind and the rain, but it is not completely impossible to integrate into it!Could it be that Meng Qi was referring to the fact that the dragon was born lonely, a living being, but different from the living beings in the world, and destined to wander without support?

"...No matter how deep my skill is, no matter how high my state of mind is, my appearance will not be able to impress everyone no matter what."

Meng Qi shook his head regretfully.

Mo Li's face was expressionless, and his heart was completely unmoved, and he even wanted to catch the mouse with a bamboo cup.

Noticing that Dr. Mo's expression was not right, Meng Qi coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "We pass each other by chance, just like meeting each other by chance, and we will return to each other in no time. Who would stare at passers-by for nothing?" It doesn’t stop, but it’s different when you pass through the city gate, check and verify one by one, how do you cover it up?”

Mo Li thought for a while, and found that this was indeed the case, and Meng Qi could not be blamed.

As for being eye-catching at other times, it's purely Meng Qi's desire to do so.

For example, stepping into Fengxing Pavilion has the meaning of intimidating.

——Despite thinking so in his heart, the image of a gerbil strolling on the wall with its belly shy still couldn't be restrained in Mo Li's mind.

At that time, it was true that he deliberately used his appearance to attract the attention of others.

Mo Li suddenly realized that Meng Qi wasn't really showing off his appearance just now. If that appearance would attract attention no matter what, it was actually implying that Mu Xiuyu was also the one who turned into a gerbil... oh, the rat is fatter than the group ?

Shangyun Mountain is full of aura, can Meng Qi be blamed?

As a dragon vein, it is uncontrollable to become a gerbil, and it is not one's choice to become a fat rat.

"It's not easy for you either." Mo Li sighed.

Or the pond water deep in the cave reassures the fish!Taking good care of the fish also prevents it from running outside and encountering danger after its birth.

"Fortunately, there are still doctors in the world who know me."

After the two finished speaking, Lu Min stepped back a few steps, his face full of shock.

Because in the ears of the second prince, Meng Guoshi was bragging about his own appearance without humility, the doctor thought about it and thought that it was not easy for Meng Qi to be so good-looking.The national teacher was very grateful and called the doctor a confidant.

Lu Min: "..."

What kind of lunatic is this?

Is it really safe to follow these two people?

The suspicion was suppressed by the second prince as soon as it appeared—how could there be a problem with a person who the elder brother agrees with?

Lu Min wondered, is it because he doesn't understand the thoughts of those gentlemen who are naturally beautiful?

This seems to be the case. Didn’t the Hanlin scholar who the Pope’s son studied said that during the Warring States period, there was a prime minister who liked to compare his beauty with Xu Gong in the north of the city? He not only asked the guests, but also asked his wife and concubine. ?

Hey, beautiful heart, sea needle.

After Lu Min figured it out, he lifted his expression and reminded, "There seems to be a guard ahead."

As soon as the words fell, Meng Qi's figure disappeared.

Lu Min was stunned, and subconsciously looked at Mo Li, but he also looked at nothing.

The second prince stood there alone, thinking in disbelief: Could it be that he was left behind? ?

"Keep going, don't look around, and don't hold your head up and shrink back." Mo Li's voice rang in Lu Min's ear.

It is not necessary for the target of the sound transmission to know martial arts, it is just that if you don't know martial arts, you can't use this trick.

Lu Min was sure, he immediately imitated the appearance of the people around him, panicked and didn't dare to look around too much, and hurried on the road.

When he saw the imperial guards fiercely stopping the two men wearing bamboo hats and interrogating them severely, Lu Min immediately understood why Meng Qi wanted to hide.

Since the imperial guards are looking for these people who cover their heads and faces, Meng Qi doesn't know how to achieve the effect of "disappearing everyone" and it doesn't exist.As for the ink carp, it was probably moved by Meng Guoshi's words, and felt that its good looks really attracted people's attention.

The second prince hid by the side of the road with other common people, and he was still holding a crude bamboo basket in his hand, which was empty.

People all over the street are carrying similar baskets. They are in a hurry to buy salt and oil, and they have to go to the rice shop. They don’t think much about fruits and vegetables. They still have Chinese cabbage at home. If the price of rice rises, If there is another mess, I won't be able to hold on.

Until now, people still don't know what happened in Taijing.

They clung to the vision, and the novelty at that time turned to fear, and now they dare not say a word.

Sure enough, the imperial guards did not pay attention to "Lu Min", they searched around the workshop and the main shop.

Apart from Mudanfang, walking eastward for about a quarter of an hour, Lu Min took a shortcut in the alley under Meng Qi's guidance, and finally arrived at Laurelfang smoothly.

This is also not a folk square where common people live. It is near the east city of Taijing. In the early years, common people did live there. The people moved elsewhere.

During the Qi Dynasty and the establishment of Chu, Dongshi was looted.

Only those shops in Laurel Fong were lucky, and the owner of the shop also saved his fortune, and he was more and more unwilling to leave Laurel Fong. Although the East Market is still lively, but if he wants to buy some rare and expensive goods, he can still go to Laurel Fong again. have a look.

Many self-proclaimed female family members of the official family did not want to go to Dongshi, so they took a bus to Yueguifang.

Over time, there are many kinds of clothing, spices, rouge and jewelry here.

There are silver buildings and gold shops along the street in Laurel Fong, and the gates are tightly locked at the moment, and the street is empty.Only one door panel was removed from the other shops, and the gap in the door was so small that it seemed that it would be closed whenever something went wrong.

The guys in the shop were either going home, or were busy buying rice and salt. At this time, no one would go shopping in Laurel Fong, so Lu Min's fresh face was very eye-catching.

No.15 times, the second prince finally couldn't hold back after being watched vigilantly by passers-by as if they were thieves.

"Where is it?"

Meng Qi quietly stepped on the eaves, put away the map, and said to Mo Li behind him that the road here has not changed, and he knows it very well.Then the sound transmission comforted the second prince:

"Hurry up, keep going and go east when you meet the first fork, go north at the second fork, go east at the third fork, go to the end and turn to the south fork."

"... Can the national teacher say left or right? Or wait until I get there before giving instructions?"

A bunch of east, west, north and south smashed, and the roads crossed, how can you tell the difference?

Besides, walking and walking is an alley, some of which are not considered roads at all, and some are used by people to take shortcuts, do these side roads count?Do you want to turn the corner?

Hearing this, Meng Qi stopped helplessly.

"The doctor looks at the second prince, I will go to that place to explore the way first."

Mo Li thought for a while and said, "Let me do it."

He was on the eaves, and he had just looked at the map. It was easy to compare the terrain with the map, and he would not find the wrong place.

"After all, I was the one asking for the needle."

A good pair of silver needles is still very important.

The silver needles that the ink carp brought out from Zhushan County at first were made by Dr. He in Tuoma County, and they were very easy to use.Although it is not as good as the set of silver needles used by Qin Lu, a good craftsman is harder to find than a good swordsmith.

Moli doesn't like the silver needles commonly used by doctors.

Meng Qi nodded at Mo Li, and said earnestly: "It's okay, you can take out the money and beg in a good manner first, if he refuses to do it, you can call me again."

"..."

The ink carp hesitated to speak, it was just buying a set of silver needles, there was no need to do that.

He only heard that swordsmiths refused to forge swords, but he never heard of craftsmen who refused to make silver needles unless they were old and feeble and their hands and feet were weak.The silver needle is used by Xinglin, it is to save people, not to kill people, so why should there be any scruples?

The silver needles used as hidden weapons are not the same as those used in acupuncture.

Doctors need soft and solid needles; hidden weapon springs are full of sharp, hard, and even hollow needles with venom hidden in them.

Mo Li wanted to explain to Meng Qi, but they were hiding on the eaves, so they couldn't attract people's attention. Besides, it wasn't a big deal to delay time by explaining clearly, so he silently accepted Meng Qi's kindness and took the first step.

Looking at Mo Li's back, Meng Qi frowned, thinking that the doctor's attitude has become weird since he became a child and walked with him in a secret way, which is not possible.

***

Let's say that Mo Li was thinking about the path on the map, and the more he walked, the more he deviated from the silver building and gold shop.

In the end, they came to a dilapidated house, and the people who came in and out were some poor scholars with patched clothes. They were more courageous than ordinary people, and they talked in a low voice while walking with steamed buns.

"...It was said that it was rebellion and forced the palace, but the thunderous movement yesterday was actually artillery."

"What, who is the traitor, have you ever caught it?"

"It's hard to say."

Mo Li bypassed these scholars, and continued walking along the map in doubt.

He stopped in front of a house that was still in good condition, and knocked tentatively on the door.

There was no movement inside the door, Mo Li knocked on the door again, suddenly heard footsteps behind him, looked back, and saw a middle-aged scholar looking at him vigilantly.

"Who are you looking for?"

Mo Li could tell at a glance that this was the owner of the house.

Because this narrow alleyway is a dead end, except for the door in front of you, everything else is a wall.

Mo Li bowed his hands thoughtfully and said: "I come from Fengxing Pavilion... Fengxing Bookstore, I want to come to ask for it..."

"what?!"

The middle-aged scholar was shocked, and then said angrily, "How dare they sell my news?"

The middle-aged scholar saw Mo Li's handsome appearance and calm demeanor, and he knew at a glance that he had been taught the six arts of a gentleman since he was a child. Usually, only the rich and powerful can see such a person.

He became more and more disgusted, and couldn't help frowning: "Young master's inner brilliance, extraordinary background, why do you come here to ask for something that can't wait for the table?"

Mo Li was slightly angry, because some so-called scholarly families really believed that it was wrong for their nephews to study medicine, and studying for the imperial examination was the right way.If you just learn it by yourself, it’s okay to be a headache for your family. If you insist on going out to practice medicine and treat people, you will be scolded, beaten or even kicked out of the house.

It's just because the people that the doctor wants to rule are all evil-looking, filthy, and full of evil spirits in their eyes. How can such people who are willing to be lowly regardless of their status stay at home?

Mo Li's anger was also because of Qin Lu's background and experience.

"Whether you can get on the stage or not, how can you judge?"

"you……"

The steamed bun in the middle-aged scholar's hand almost fell, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

During the stalemate, Meng Qi arrived.

Meng Qi immediately appeared in front of the scholar, and asked coldly, "Why, he won't do it?"

The pressure doubled again, and the scholar who didn't know martial arts couldn't hold back and leaned against the wall, his eyes were full of horror.

Meng Qi narrowed his eyes, and said word by word: "...you are really good at making the doctor angry."

"etc?"

The middle-aged scholar crossed his arms and asked Mo Li while holding back his shivering, "You, are you a doctor?"

Seeing his expression, Mo Li suddenly realized that he might have misunderstood something.

"Doctor...you, what exactly do you want?"

"Silver needle."

Mo Li began to wonder if he had found the wrong person.

The middle-aged scholar breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound, and muttered, "I didn't say it earlier, I thought I was here to ask for a painting."

His voice was very low, but he couldn't hide it from Meng Qi and Mo Li.

The two looked at each other, and Mo Li felt that he had missed something, and he began to recall the conversation with the scholar just now.

"There are still two pairs of silver needles that haven't been sold, you can take a look first, come in." The scholar began to fumble for the keys in his pocket.

Mo Li thought for a while, then tentatively called out: "Mr. Jin Shui?"

The scholar shook his hand and hit his forehead directly on the door.

The author has something to say:

The wood is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it

Rats are fatter than the crowd, cats must... catch them?
