Aggrieved Fish Sprite

In front of him was a large dark courtyard, only two wind lanterns hung on the porch.

Because the paper pasted on the outer wall was too thick, the light was dim and could only illuminate a small area.

The eaves on all sides are good places to hide, but because they are so good, Meng Qi can't choose, otherwise he will have to face the rabbit who is about to hit the tree stump.

As for the stump—

The cellar under this yard has always been the usual place for mortuary bodies.

There are generally no major cases in Xuncheng Yamen, but after all, Ningtai is the most affluent place in the south of the Yangtze River except Qiantang County, and there are many foreign merchants, scribes, etc.Usually murders also happened to these people. The money was looted, and the corpses were stored in the cellar, waiting for the business houses, fellow countrymen's associations, and literary associations in the city to send people to take turns to identify the corpses.

Those who are recognized and have money at home will buy coffins and transport them out.

The others were released for a while before they were taken to Yizhuang and thrown into mass graves.

Qiu Si's attendants are all without relatives and no reason, and no one would think of preparing a coffin for them.

Mo Li took out the money bag, looked at the scattered silver coins inside and sighed.

"doctor?"

"……nothing."

In fact, Mo Li didn't really care about the idea of ​​being buried in the ground. Under the circumstances at that time, it was impossible not to kill those attendants. It was just that in the middle of the night when there was no one there, thinking of those attendants who had been confused all their lives and were finally thrown into the wilderness, they gave birth to Inexplicably complicated emotions.

These attendants who were kept by Qiu Si's side through various screenings, even if they were not as intelligent as Cheng Jingchuan, were definitely not weak in martial arts talent.

Putting it in the Jianghu, not to mention anything else, it is definitely much higher than that real Baiyu who colluded with Thunderbolt in Fengxing Pavilion.

"I'm just thinking, if there is no Qiu Si, they may live in a dull or difficult way like ordinary people, or they will be like a river and lake person, wandering all over the world."

Both lives may be unsatisfactory, and there will be disasters, but it is better than dying silently and being someone's vassal.

Mo Li quickly abandoned this emotion, and laughed at himself: "It's too boring to say these things, and it's a bit ridiculous, I killed them..."

A hand reached out and covered his mouth.

Mo Li looked around in astonishment.

He has seen people who scolded others to shut up, interrupted others, and even had some dumb points, but he had never seen anyone who directly "struck".

"A Li, I know you don't like killing people unless it is absolutely necessary, or the person is heinous." Meng Qi glanced at his pocket, it was empty, he had no money and no cakes, otherwise he stuffed a piece into the doctor's mouth, not only sweet The mouth can still be sweet all the way to the heart, "I will do all these things in the future."

Mo Li was dumbfounded, feeling that Meng Qi was coaxing him like a child.

After leaving Zhushan County, it became easier for him to immerse himself in the misfortunes of life and death in the world. He could no longer see the truth of the world as clearly and openly as he did a year ago. This is probably the trouble of entering the world.

He could persuade Meng Qi before, but now he wants Meng Qi to comfort him.

"... What is the difference between what you did and what I did?" Mo Li blurted out.

Meng Qi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and Mo Li immediately regretted that vaguely smug look.

How can someone say something like this to make someone stunned.

"Pavilion Qiu is right. After a person dies, all grievances and grievances are gone. It is meaningless to leave the corpse to mourn and sigh. It can only be fed to snakes, insects, ants and beasts. It is better to burn it clean." Mo Li changed the subject and returned his mind to the original In terms of things, "it's time to deal with this side, just cremate them."

Just as Meng Qi was about to speak, there was a slight noise in the distance, and someone was coming towards him.

The noise comes from the tiles, which is negligible for ordinary people.

Several figures quickly swept across the roof, looking down.

The night walkers on the roof jumped into the courtyard when they saw no one around. They spread out carefully, some were guarding the courtyard gate, some were looking around, and some were about to open the door and enter the house.

Meng Qi shook his head while watching, how can he be so careless, what if there is a trap at the door?

Besides, he and Doctor Mo are not the only ones who want to wait for the silly rabbit to hit a tree stump!

In fact, Meng Qi discovered that there was an ambush here as soon as he came, but the other party was guarding in the courtyard, and some archers who did not know martial arts were arranged outside the courtyard gate, which was far away from the hiding place he was looking for, so it was nothing at all. Influence.

Isn't this a ready-made "stump"?

Meng Qi immediately turned a blind eye and let those people lie in ambush under his nose.

At this moment, the group of nocturnal travelers had no scruples and were about to break in the door, but they were shot by the darts ejected from the mechanism and screamed again and again.

These darts penetrated deep into the flesh, and were extremely difficult to pull out. The night crawler who sneaked in was immediately injured and unable to stand up.

"Drag down."

Someone ordered in the dark with disdain.

Those night walkers still wanted to resist with their knives, but they were hit by flying stones one after another in their acupoints, and they fell to the ground without moving.

A few soldiers dressed as yamen servants entered the door tremblingly, dragged the lying down visitor out, and cleaned the yard meticulously, wiped off the blood that had just flowed, and carefully picked up the darts that fell on the walls and the ground.

Meng Qi changed his posture to watch the theater on the eaves, and the second wave of people who came immediately after was even more useless, and they couldn't go to the room because they were not good at light work.

Ink Carp: "..."

Well, Meng Qi didn't need to say anything, he also knew that these two groups of people could never be the King Wu's spies they were waiting for.

As someone who has personally experienced Fengxing Pavilion's strict investigation, Mo Li is sure that without guides and a perfect identity cover, there is no way to escape so many eyes.

The more Mo Li thought about it, he even felt that there was another resourceful and capable person hidden in Ningtai City, but he had no clear position.

Maybe not as good as Qiu Si, but maybe he can know martial arts?

Where did Qiu Si really lose?Isn't it because he doesn't know martial arts? If he is like his daughter, he can learn internal skills well. Although he can't avoid the end of old age and death, at least his body won't be so bad, and his body won't deteriorate so quickly. Let alone live more five or six years.

When Meng Qi Moli came to his door, he might escape in time without being blocked in another courtyard.

If a martial arts master wanted to hide from people, he might be more slippery than a loach. Coupled with the convenience of occupying a favorable location, it was really not that easy for Meng Qi to dig people out.

Ink carp looks serious, a book -->>

Seriously, he raised this idea to Meng Qi, he is not afraid of being smart, if he knows martial arts and has a good brain, he will die.

Looking at the opponents they have encountered all the time, there is no one who has both of these two.

Qiu Si will not talk about it, and Qingwu Patriarch will not talk about it. As for Ayan Puka, he has good brains and martial arts, but his vision is limited, he is short of people around him, and his luck is not good.

It would be very difficult for a King Wu counselor who is capable and resourceful and knows how to behave in a low-key manner.

Meng Qi was also worried when he heard this.

Fortunately, he quickly realized that there is a capable person on King Wu's side, but it doesn't mean that the capable person is squatting in Ningtai City.

Martial arts masters are not Chinese cabbages, how could it be so easy to meet them!That is to say, they caused troubles along the way, or were troubled to find them, so they bumped into so many masters. The average person wanders around the rivers and lakes, and it is impossible to meet one in a lifetime.

"Ah Li, that's not what you said. Apart from being resourceful, there is another possibility to hide your identity."

"Ok?"

"His identity is so special that no one thinks to check or doubt him. Or the person responsible for checking his identity is not innocent himself, and it is not uncommon for him to be taken advantage of."

Mo Li felt that what Meng Qi said made sense, and was about to think about it, when another group of people came.

This group of people was completely different from the previous ones. They went to the roof first, looked around for a while, and soon fought with the ambushing archers and government servants.

They seemed to be very familiar with the terrain, and it didn't take long for them to solve the ambush outside and carefully explored into the courtyard.

Just when they dismantled the gate mechanism and were about to enter the cellar, something happened suddenly.

"cough."

The sound from the corner startled everyone, and the hidden weapons in their hands were almost shot together.

"Our tree stump has appeared." Meng Qi said to Mo Li enthusiastically.

Ink Carp: "..."

The person who intercepted the Nightcrawler before and only made a sound without showing his face finally stepped out of the covering darkness.

He has a white face and no beard, with a smile on his face, and his eyes look like flies staring at carrion.

Just by looking at the clothes, you can tell that he is not an ordinary person. People who wear brocade with embroidery patterns in this weather are either fools or masters with internal skills. Because the embroidery patterns are too thick, it is almost equivalent to the second layer of fabric, which is thick and airtight , enough to make a person pass out.

"Don't drive Huang?"

Biejia is a high-ranking assistant official in the state capital or the king's mansion. The official system in the area under King Ning's jurisdiction is chaotic. Meng Qi didn't know how much Biejia was an official who patrolled the city's yamen. He raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "It seems that he is still famous tree stump."

Mo Carp was almost amused, but finally held back.

"You are already the seventh wave of guests that Huang received tonight." Huang Biejia said unhurriedly, and it was only then that Mo Li realized that before Meng Qi came with him, the place was already very lively in the middle of the night.

Huang Biejia held an iron fracture fan in his hand, but the fan was missing at the moment, which looked strange.

The leader of the Night Pedestrians sneered, and said in a low voice: "It seems that one of the wave of people is more troublesome, and they damaged Huang Biejia's fan. It's not a secret how many pounds or taels this city patrolling yamen has. Without organs, bows and crossbows and fashion The rest of the people who come to the pavilion to make a living are straw bags. You, Huang Biejia, are the only ones who can barely get it. The people who came to visit before are probably not as polite as us, and I don’t know Huang Biejia. Are you not injured?"

"what."

Huang Biejia laughed, squinting his eyes and said, "It's all right to be courteous and courteous. If you don't look up and look down, if you come here without saying hello, you will lose face. Thank you for your concern, but I don't know what to do with me You who receive a salary in a yamen, are you sent by Fengxing Pavilion to make a living, or are you an idiot?"

"You—" the leader of the Nightwalker was shocked, and immediately covered it up, "What are you talking nonsense about?"

Meng Qi was about to speak, but Mo Li covered his mouth with his backhand, and said first:

"Don't say that rabbits are transformed from tree stumps."

Meng Qi looked innocent.

Over there, Huang Biejia didn't intend to let the leader of the night pedestrians go. He sighed and said regretfully: "There is one thing that I really don't understand. Why do some people obviously have no ability to lie and their brains are not very bright, but they always want to go Do big things, still big things, such as betraying your senior brother to Daoist Bai Yu, quietly contacting the Thunder Hall to seek refuge with the Heavenly King..."

"Bullshit!"

The leader of the Nightwalker yelled angrily, but the people around him showed astonishment and took two steps back unconsciously.

The leader of the Nightwalker became even more angry. His face was covered by a black mask, and he could only see a pair of eyes that seemed to be breathing fire.

Huang Biejia knocked on the fan bone in his hand, and said with a smile: "The betrayal is true, and I just said it casually. There are too many visitors tonight, and I am really tired. I don't want to worry about who you are anymore." It’s not about who is arguing. Quickly catch Jin...or Jingshanhu, your identity is not concealed well enough, I already knew you were sent by Fengxing Pavilion. Let’s open the skylight and speak honestly, you are determined to follow suit Those veterans in the Xingge went to the dark and refused to obey the order of the commander. However, neither your senior brother nor the master Mr. Bao is a fuel-efficient lamp. Guess how long you have to reveal your secrets? I heard that the commander's temper is not very good. Stubborn, even Mr. Qiu couldn't persuade him to come to Ningtai, he just abducted the apprentice he had worked so hard to teach, like the policeman Jin who only cares about the glory and wealth and does not remember the friendship between the teacher and his family, usually the end is not very good .”

The leader of the Nightwalker was panting heavily. If his eyes could turn into blades, Huang Biejia would probably be poked into a sieve.

Meng Qi gently broke away from Mo Li's hand, and whispered in the latter's ear: "It's not a rabbit, it's a tiger that can't get through the mountains."

Mo carp couldn't laugh or cry.

But Huang Biejia continued with malicious intentions: "The people from Fengxing Pavilion have actually been here once, and who is the reason for the Jin policeman to come here?"

"What are you..."

Detective Jin couldn't help but wonder how his identity was exposed, but when he said the words, he felt out of his composure and shut up quickly.

Huang Biejia laughed loudly when he heard the words, tapped his palm with the handle of his fan, and jokingly said: "When a person is panicking, the words that are blurted out can reveal themselves the most. If you are from the Jianghu, you shouldn't call me Huang Biejia, just like you As I said, there are not many decent martial arts masters in Xuncheng Yamen, I am a fool, I can guess one by one."

Police officer Jin simply removed the veil, and said coldly, "I've turned my back on the teacher, so you, Huang Yang, are you an idiot? When Mr. Qiu was around, you were restless and went to the King of Wu's camp early. You changed your family and thought that no one else knew about it? Everyone is looking for a way out for prosperity and wealth, so don't speak so harshly."

Oh wow.

Meng Qi rubbed his fingers and thought, it turns out that there is really no need to catch the rabbit, but just pull out the stump.
