The Supreme Being

The moonlight is cold and cold, and a layer of silver gauze is draped on the Zengxianmen complex without trees.

Hua Lun regained a lot of his mobility, jumped down from behind Meng Qi, walked to the door, took the copper ring, and started knocking.

After seeing Meng Qi's unpredictable swordsmanship, he became more confident in grabbing the strange stone tonight and couldn't wait to start taking action.

With a creak, the small door next to the copper-nailed door opened. A disciple of the Zengxian Sect stuck his head out to take a look, and said with a mixture of surprise and surprise: "Young Master, are you back?"

Hua Lun didn't want to alarm too many people and cause Huang Yun and others to take precautions in advance. He pressed his hand down and signaled the other party to be quiet: "Where is my father? Where are the other elders?"

The disciple of the Zengxian Sect restrained his voice and said: "Report to the young sect master that the strange stone was snatched away. The sect master led many elders and chased him to Beishan. He was blocking the main road with the Qinshan Sword Sect and all the heroes, and was gradually searching for it. Only three elders stayed behind."

No matter what, as a sect, there must be elders staying behind, otherwise it is easy to be coveted by juniors.

Still on lockdown... Meng Qi smiled and shook his head. The strange stone was robbed at noon, and now it is already late at night. The mountains and rivers are crisscrossed by peaks and the miasma is dense. You can't catch them during the day, but you can basically listen to them at night. It is destiny, and tomorrow, the hope of finding him will be even slimmer, unless the other party has been seriously injured and has a difficult journey through mountains and rivers.

Hualun took a breath: "Which elders are here?"

When they were ruining the temple, he and Meng Qi had also considered the possible situations. The absence of his father was the most likely thing to happen, so they did not panic.

"Elder Li, Hall Master Bai, and Elder Fang are here." Seeing that the young sect leader kept asking about this matter, the disciples of the Zengxian Sect vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Hua Lun nodded: "Take me to see Hall Master Bai."

The Zengxian Sect, like all sects, has factions within it. Even if Hua Tiange and Hua Lun and his son have the support of the Zhenyi Sect, who are powerful and have great power, there are still some who are not convinced by them or who are unwilling to take over the sect as direct descendants of the Zhenyi Sect. Elders exist, and after many years of interaction, they are actually inextricably related to the Zhenyi Sect, so Hua Tiange does not forcefully eliminate dissidents.

Among the three elders left in the sect, Hall Master Bai is from the Hua Tiange family. He is the most trustworthy and has eight realms. He is the hall master of the Yanwu Hall. Elder Li and Elder Fang, one is a neutral faction and the other is a neutral faction. They are people who are not happy that Hua Lun will take over the Zengxian Sect in the future.

The face of the disciple who opened the door became very solemn, and he did not dare to ask any more questions. He led Hua Lun and Meng Qi quietly through the double courtyard and arrived in front of Hall Master Bai's courtyard.

"My dear nephew, you are back!" Not long after, Hall Master Bai came out after hearing the news and said with joy.

He is older than Hua Tiange, but his black hair remains on his head and his body is strong, making him look younger.

Hualun bowed his hands and said bluntly: "Uncle Bai, I know where the strange rocks are hidden!"

"What?" Hall Master Bai looked stunned. He didn't expect that Hualun's first words when they met would be this. He was not nearby at all at the time!

Hua Lun spoke about his experience and plans in a concise and concise manner, and finally pointed at Meng Qi and said: "Thanks to Mr. Meng's help, my nephew was able to escape and come back to report the news. I also asked my uncle to send someone up the mountain quickly and quietly inform my father. Let’s get back the strange stone together!”

Although Ning Jidao, Huang Yun and Zhang Zhihui must still be on the mountain to avoid suspicion, but Luo Jiao is very powerful if he can snatch the strange stone on the spot, so just in case, it is best to have nine orifices. Father is here.

"Mr. Meng's great kindness and kindness will be repaid by this despicable sect." Upon hearing Luo Jiao, Hall Master Bai looked quite frightened, but he still thanked Meng Qi politely, and then asked without wasting time. , "Where are the strange stones hidden in the sky?"

"The village at the foot of Beishan Mountain belongs to the Qinshan Sword Sect." Hua Lun gritted his teeth.

He had told Meng Qi before that Ning Jidao, Huang Yun and Zhang Zhihui would quietly open a road to allow the Luo Jiao people who had fled to Beishan to go down the mountain. However, the number of heroes joining in the fun were numerous and scattered everywhere. If you are not careful, you will be encountered, so they told the Luo Jiao people not to leave in a hurry, but to first hide in the nearby Zhuangzi of the Qinshan Sword Sect, wait for the storm to pass the next day, and sneak in among the servants who come to the city to buy things. go.

The reason why he did not choose to escape late at night was that there were too many people and people with ulterior motives wanted to fish in the troubled waters of Zhuangzi of the Qinshan Sword Sect and make a fortune. Under such circumstances, it would be extremely eye-catching for someone to suddenly leave in the middle of the night, and it would inevitably be noticed by others. Discoveries and doubts.

Hall Master Bai pondered for a moment and looked at Meng Qi: "Mr. Meng, do you have any good suggestions?"

According to Hua Lun's description, this young master is more powerful than he showed during the day. He is considered one of the main players tonight, and his opinion cannot be ignored.

"What good suggestion can I make? It is that we go outside Zhuangzi and watch from a high position to prevent him from escaping. We will wait for the Hua Sect Master to arrive before making any big noise to lure the snake out of its hole." Meng Qi said with a smile.

This was exactly what Hall Master Bai had in mind. He nodded gently and said, "Okay, let's do what Young Master Meng wants."

Hall Master Bai quietly found a few disciples who were good and trustworthy. Together, they left Zengxian Sect without anyone noticing and headed toward Beishan. The initial plan was that Hall Master Bai would take two disciples with him. He went up the mountain to find Hua Tiange and asked him to come down on the pretext that there was something going on at home, while Hua Lun, Meng Qi and two other disciples monitored Zhuangzi, just in case.

After walking for a while, there was a sudden light in the sky. Meng Qi and others looked back and found that there was a signal emitting from the mountain where Hua Lun was hiding!

"Oops!" Hua Lun blurted out. This was obviously the Luo Sect's believers who blocked the mountain peak, notifying the people who snatched the strange stones, telling him that they were out of trouble, their secrets were exposed, and they must leave as soon as possible.

And now we have to get to that village unless we can fly!

"No need to rush." ​​Meng Qi waved his hand.

He had anticipated this, so when he met Luo Jiao's Zukong envoy, he did not hesitate to be ruthless, not giving him time to react or a chance to escape, and trying to delay their notification of the person who was snatching the stone.

The result was neither good nor bad. With the assassination of the empty envoy, the followers of the Luo Sect were leaderless and obviously confused for a while. The signal was not sent until now. However, it was still far behind the best time. .

The best scenario that Meng Qi expected was that he, Hua Lun and others had already arrived outside the village and were under surveillance. Hua Tiange had almost arrived. At this time, the signal was sent, and the people who were snatching stones in the village were frightened and fled away from the village. Being caught red-handed, the best plans can always only remain in imagination.

"Mr. Meng, do you have a clever plan?" Hall Master Bai looked at Meng Qi expectantly.

Meng Qi chuckled and said, "You can still guess where the person who snatched the stone will flee to."

"It's impossible for him to escape to the direction of Beishan. He would encounter heroes from the world, people from the sect, or even ordinary disciples of the Qinshan Sword Sect who don't know the secret." Hua Lun first denied one direction.

Meng Qi answered with a smile: "He won't go towards Zengxian Gate unless he wants to throw himself into a trap."

Hall Master Bai pondered for a moment and said: "The direction in which the signal is sent is also wrong. Many heroes must have seen it and went to check it out. The strange stone has the power of the gods. Once it touches it, it will definitely be sensed."

"So now there are only two directions left, one is the city, and the other is the dock outside the city." Hua Lun looked at Meng Qi expectantly.

Meng Qi smiled and said: "We have to figure out the purpose of the Luo Jiao people. If there is a chance, does he want to take the strange stone and leave directly, or does he want to hide and seek with us near Qinshan Mountain?"

"Dock!" Hua Lun blurted out.

Meng Qi nodded slightly: "Hall Master Bai, please inform Master Hua that only a few disciples are enough. Please continue to stay outside Zhuangzi to keep a close watch. Perhaps that person remains unchanged in response to all changes. Mr. Hua and I will go to the dock to intercept him."

"Okay." Hall Master Bai made a quick decision.

After they split up, Hua Lun asked a little uneasily: "Mr. Meng, will he really escape to the dock?"

"I don't know how to predict, and I don't know his character. I can only say that the dock is the most likely, so we have to do our best to grasp it." Meng Qi answered frankly.

This is indeed the case. If you encounter someone who likes to take risks, you can return to Beishan without any hesitation and hide directly in the mountains from the direction Huang Yun and others are searching.

Hua Lun nodded thoughtfully, no longer anxious.

When we arrived at the dock, the moonlight was cold, the ships were rising and falling, and the night was quiet.

Since the distance was closer, Meng Qi was not worried that the other party would arrive before the two of him. He glanced at it and said to Hua Lun, "Let's find a small boat and wait for him."

"What are you doing with Xiaozhou?" Hualun asked in confusion.

Meng Qi smiled and said, "When he came, the small boat slowly sailed out from behind the big ship. I stood with my hands behind my hands and said, "How long will it feel to wait for a long time?"

"..." Hua Lun was stunned and couldn't believe the reason.

Meng Qi coughed: "Actually, it is to build momentum and plant in his mind the impression that I have everything under control and am confident. When fighting like this, he will be unconsciously afraid and will not be able to exert 70% of his 100% strength."

Masters compete with each other, their qi and energy are at odds with each other, and their minds are secretly fighting. If someone's mind or spirit is flawless, it will be difficult for them to exert their own strength and end up in failure. This is the same whether it is in the open or on location!

In this regard, Huang-type martial arts pay more attention to it, and the main world is similar.

Hua Lun nodded lightly: "My master and my father have always emphasized confidence and momentum. I have always been confused about it. I just realized it today."

He paused and blurted out with a hint of confusion: "Mr. Meng, but I always feel that your real reason is the one you mentioned at the beginning."

Meng Qi looked at him and was speechless for a moment.

…………

After a while, a figure appeared at the pier, looking around, looking for a boat going down the river.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he saw a small boat slowly sailing out from behind a large ship. The moonlight was blurred, shining on the boat and on the river. The water was rippling and sparkling, just like a dream.

There is a handsome man in a green shirt and gauze hat on the boat. He stands with his hands behind his hands, his clothes rustling with the river wind, and he is indescribably leisurely and unrestrained.

His eyes were smiling and his tone was calm, as if he was hiding extremely strong confidence:

"I have been waiting for a long time. How is Miss Sang?"
