Meng 49 sword

Chapter 23

In the extremely clean small courtyard, a few white plum blossoms quietly bloomed in the chilly spring, and the fallen petals fell into the embrace of the wind and tenderness, whirling and falling on the half-closed casement.

Aunt Qing poked her head curiously behind Meng Qiqi, and the magpie tilted its head on the treetop to look at her, as if thinking: Where did this weird little girl come from?

The two entered the inner room, and the white-haired old woman in a plain flower cloak was leaning against the window reading a book.Her face was hidden in the shadow of the room, but the hand holding the scroll was exposed to the sunlight.The warm sunlight filled every fine line on her hands, and when her slender fingers caressed the pages of the book, it exuded the beauty hidden in time.

Meng Qiqi stepped forward to salute respectfully, but Granny Zhu didn't even raise her eyes, she just asked calmly, "Where's Zhou Ziheng?"

"The little uncle is dead."

"Oh?" Granny Zhu's hand that turned the page paused, "Did you see it with your own eyes?"

Meng Qiqi shook her head, "Because I didn't see it with my own eyes, I assumed he was dead, otherwise Jiange would be in decline, how could he be ashamed not to show up until now?"

Only then did Granny Zhu put down the book slowly, raised her eyes, and said, "You youngster, you are really heartless."

Meng Qiqi smiled back and said, "Grandma, please don't praise me, I came here today to ask for something. If you say a few more words, I'll be ashamed to say so."

Granny Zhu burst out laughing, she really deserved to be the heir of Zhou Ziheng, the real person is more eclectic than the letter.She waved her hand to let the two of them sit down. The woman who opened the door just now brought tea quickly. After serving the tea, she stood behind Granny Zhu and rubbed her shoulders considerately.

Granny Zhu closed her eyes lazily, "Drink tea, since Zhou Ziheng won't come, then get out of here after you drink tea."

"Grandma, you invited me here yourself, how can you drive people away?"

"When did I invite you here?"

"My mother-in-law hid the address here as a puzzle in the last letter she gave me. Didn't she just hope that I would find it? Although it wasn't the little uncle who solved the problem, it can be seen that I wrote you so tirelessly. For the sake of many letters, mother-in-law, you can't kick me out." Meng Qiqi helplessly spread her hands.

Grandma Zhu smiled, "Have you really solved this problem?"

Meng Qiqi felt guilty when she saw her staring smiling eyes, but she still had to force herself, "Of course I figured it out."

"Ask this little girl to say, has your master really solved it?" Granny Zhu looked at Qinggu.The questions she posed were understood by only Zhou Ziheng in the world, and no matter how heroic this young man was, it was impossible for him to solve them.

Qinggu stood up, bowed to Granny Zhu, and replied obediently: "Grandma's question is too difficult, and Master can't solve it. But he threatened Uncle Lin, Uncle Lin had no choice but to tell him. "

Uncle Lin is the middleman who helps the two of them pass the letter, a very good and honest man.Meng Qiqi glared at Aunt Qing, "You little girl, you've completely demolished your master."

Qinggu blinked aggrievedly, "Master, don't scold me, my mother-in-law must have guessed early on that you can't solve the puzzle, and if you don't tell the truth, you will be kicked out."

"Will you not be kicked out if you tell the truth?" Meng Qiqi was annoyed.

Grandma Zhu couldn't stand it any longer, and raised her tone slightly, "You two, master and apprentice, are singing together, do you really think my wife can't understand?"

Meng Qiqi smiled apologetically, "Grandma's eyes are like torches."

So Granny Zhu gave Meng Qiqi a supercilious look with her wise eyes, but then beckoned Qinggu with her hand, "Come on, little girl, come to my mother-in-law."

Qing Gu walked over and called out "Mother-in-law" sweetly.

Grandma Zhu sat up a little bit, with a trace of kindness in her eyes.Meng Qiqi knew that the hurdle of entering the door was considered passed.This Granny Zhu was also a well-known fairy in the fairy sect a hundred years ago, with countless suitors.She and Zhou Ziheng had known each other since they were young. At that time, everyone said that they were a pair of lovers, but they parted ways after a few years.

Zhou Ziheng traveled all over the world, and Grandma Zhu married an ordinary scholar, and she has never been seen again.

The beauty is easy to grow old. Decades later, in the ordinary small house in Jinling City, the fairy who was so beautiful back then grew wrinkles and white hair. She gently looked at the younger generation of her old friend and asked, "Your name is Qinggu, right?" No, how old is this year?"

"Qing Gu just turned fifteen this year, and she was born in the twelfth lunar month." Qing Gu raised her small face and smiled brightly in her eyes.

"Okay." Granny Zhu patted her head, loving the little girl very much.

Meng Qiqi saw that the two got along harmoniously, no one wanted to pay attention to him, wrinkled his nose, and drank tea by himself.

On the street, the competition between Chen Boyan and the monks continued.Tu Youqian rolled up his sleeves to help out in the crowd, "Okay, next! Next!"

Chen Boyan fought three people in a row and won all of them.

This third time was even the result of him taking the initiative to withdraw, but the other party had no choice but to bow down.Because the monk he was fighting against was born reckless, and there was no powerful sword formula taught by an unknown teacher.If Chen Boyan hadn't stopped in time, I'm afraid his sword would have been directly cut to pieces by Wu Wang.

The terrifying power of the natural sword body made all the monks in the room amazed, and it also made many people want to compete in the field.This is really powerless and aggrieved. In terms of fighting equipment alone, even if they have been immersed in the way of cultivation for decades, they are still no match for a young Chen Boyan. What can they say?

Seeing that there was no third person for a long time, Tu Youqiong caught a glimpse of Jiang Xie from the Big Dipper Gate from the corner of his eye, and his eyes lit up.

"Senior Brother Jiang! Brother Jiang, stop!" Tu Youqiong shouted loudly.

Jiang Xie heard it, but he was like a bright mirror in his heart, knowing that he was absolutely no match for Chen Boyan, so he was not happy to take the humiliation.

Seeing him walking non-stop, Tu Youqi was happy, "Brother Jiang! My little uncle is back! Aren't you looking for him, come, come, come!"

Everyone looked sideways for a while, Jiang Xie had to stop, turned around and said: "Apprentice brother, I have important matters to deal with, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you for the time being. As for the agreement with Uncle Meng, Beidoumen has never forgotten it!"

After finishing speaking, Jiang Xie left in a flick of his sleeves.Zhao Xing, who had fought side by side with Tu Youqiong in the secret realm, followed behind him, and glared at Tu Youqiong before leaving.Only Youqiong made funny faces at him triumphantly, making him very angry.

Dai Xiaoshan discovered something else, and said with a smile, "Cai Mu is not here."

"Cai Mu? You said the one who competed with me in the Tanghualou that day?" Tu Youqiong asked.

"Well. With Beidoumen's behavior, Cai Mu lost to you and lost the Beidoumen's face. These few days must be difficult."

Tu Youqiong curled his lips, "If I lose, Elder Brother will punish me to practice harder."

Dai Xiaoshan shook his head helplessly, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Junior brother, you really don't know your blessings in the midst of blessings."

"Ah?" The second monk Tu Youqiong couldn't figure it out, but at this moment, Chen Boyan looked over and caught Tu Youqiong's stupid look in his eyes.

"If you are poor, come here." Chen Boyan said.

Tu Youqiong ran over slowly, "Brother, what did you tell me to do, keep fighting! Is no one coming to fight? Let me see..."

After all, Tu Youqiong is actively looking for opponents for Chen Boyan, it is best to let the senior brother beat everyone here.From now on, when he walks on the street, he can walk sideways.

But for some reason, Tu Youqi felt the back of his neck was cold.He rubbed his neck and turned his head, saw Chen Boyan looking at him indifferently, and said, "Since you like beating so much, then you can do it yourself."

"Eldest brother?" Tu Youqiong was confused.

Chen Boyan glanced around, "Everyone, Mr. Chen has a special physique. Even if he wins, there is nothing to praise. For the rest of the competition, the rest of my disciples from Gushan Jiange will take part in the battle. I don't know what you think?"

"This..." All the monks looked at each other, and Chen Boyan gave up his advantage just like that?But after thinking about it, isn't this the way of a gentleman?This Chen Boyan really deserves to be a senior brother of Gushan and a descendant of the Chen family.

But it's not worth it, he didn't do anything wrong, so why did he play again?He anxiously grabbed Chen Boyan's sleeve, "Brother!"

But Chen Boyan was unmoved, and looked down coldly, so frightened that Tu Youqiong quickly let go.Tu Youqiong's little heart shuddered three times, and then stared at Dai Xiaoshan sadly and angrily—it was agreed that he was in the blessing!Fu!

"Hey..." Dai Xiaoshan shook his head and sighed, this is really a fire at the city gate and the fish in the pond.

Chen Boyan looked at the pair of living treasure brothers, turned his head and said to Song Ru: "Look at them, if you can't beat them, just admit defeat, don't let anything happen."

"Yes, senior brother." Song Ru nodded.

Tu Youqiong quit, "Brother, why do you expect me to lose? How embarrassing to admit defeat!"

Chen Boyan looked at him coldly, "If you practice more diligently, you can also say this to me."

Tu Youqiong fell silent, and turned around silently, crying a thousand lines without saying a word.Chen Boyan asked Song Ru again, "What about the year of return?"

"Junior Brother Mu went out early in the morning." Song Ru said.She didn't say where Mu Guinian went, so it proved that she didn't know either.Chen Boyan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Soon, a challenger appeared.Facing the other unknown disciples of Gushan Jiange, the monks are still very confident.This is also one of Chen Boyan's goals. Although these juniors and juniors are all outstanding in strength, they have been practicing on the mountain all year round, so they are extremely lacking in actual combat experience.It would be a good idea to have a good experience before the Grand Competition.

As for the other purpose, of course it is my junior uncle Meng Qiqi.

Chen Boyan used the same method to get rid of the competition, and then quickly disappeared into the crowd.When he reached the hiding place, he poured out a small golden insect with wings from a thin bamboo tube tied around his waist.

The little bug flew around his finger several times, and then seemed to smell something, and started to fly forward.Chen Boyan put away the bamboo tube and stepped forward to follow.

In Granny Zhu's small courtyard, Meng Qiqi was still sipping tea contentedly, tapping her fingers on the table, showing no signs of impatience.

Granny Zhu glanced at him several times, served Qing Gu three snacks in succession, and then said slowly: "Okay, stop pretending, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Meng Qiqi quickly stood up, with a harmless smile on her face and said: "Actually, it's nothing important, I just want to ask my mother-in-law to let the chef of the Lion House make me the most authentic braised lion's head."

"It's nothing important? Don't you know that only the big owner of the Lion House makes the most authentic braised lion head?" Granny Zhu raised her eyebrows.

"So, isn't this begging your mother-in-law to come?" Meng Qiqi's smile remained unchanged.

"Why did you see my nephew?"

"Your Majesty, please help me with something." Meng Qiqi cupped his hands.

Granny Zhu waved the maid back, leaned back on the chair with half-closed eyes, and said: "Although his surname is Wang, he has ignored Wang's family affairs for a long time."

"But he just took in Wang Ziling last night, mother-in-law, you have to take good care of him next time." Meng Qiqi was surprised, but the surprise was so fake that even the magpies outside didn't buy it.

Granny Zhu: "..."

"Get out of here and let that kid come to see me!"
