Aggrieved Fish Sprite

, leaning over and bowing his head, said: "That inn is indeed the ancestral property of the slave family... must not be lost, the slave family... the heartache is like a twist, and I just want to kill the enemy."

"If you want revenge, why don't you go ashore and see what happened?" Meng Qi asked back.

"Because the slave family has listened to the words of the national teacher, those who are shooting arrows by the river at this moment are nothing but pawns, and if they are killed, they will not be able to ask anything. The national teacher is famous, and his eyes are like torches. The slave family does not want to look far away."

Meng Qi said with a smile: "The lady of the store is wrong, the old man has no name. Maybe after a hundred years, when the new dynasty re-edited the history of Chu, the word Meng Qi was copied, misremembered, or omitted."

Lady Tao was dumb.

In fact, she has never heard the rumors about Meng Qi in the Jianghu since she has been in the wild store for a long time, mainly because of the reaction of the leader of the scouts and what she saw and heard tonight.Speaking of this, Mrs. Tao had to tell the whole story.

"I was kidnapped and sold to Yizhou by Ren Yazi 25 years ago. At that time, there were more than a dozen people in my three-bedroom family who were fishing while running the inn. Every day, there was an endless stream of businessmen, and even the people who crossed the river came to sit and drink. Tea. By chance, I learned these trivial skills, and finally returned to my hometown, but what I saw was only an empty yard full of weeds and squirrels.”

The river was rushing, and Mrs. Tao's voice flowed faintly with the waves.

"...It turns out that Qi and Chu ruled the river, and the fishermen in the villages along the river were forcibly expelled. Because they lost their livelihood, the fishermen were either reduced to tenants or sold into slavery. My parents and relatives were also displaced. I don’t know where they are. I searched for it for a long time, but found nothing, and when I finally returned to the deserted courtyard in disappointment, I found Xiaohezi..."

The man scratched his head at the sound.

Lady Tao looked at him softly, and said softly, "Xiaohezi is my cousin. He had just turned one year old when I left home, and he had two birthmarks on his back. When I met him, he was sitting in the ruins foolishly. When I asked him, he said that this was his home. Later, the slave family found out that he was bought by a family to be a servant, so they bought him alone. Later, he was despised and stupid and thrown to work in the village. Bullying, beating and scolding, he ran away at night when he was 14 years old. He didn't know the way, so he begged all the way from Guiyang County, the southernmost part of Jingzhou, and finally returned to his hometown after walking for a long time."

Mrs. Tao's voice was like crying and laughing, "The houses in the villages by the river have all collapsed. Only the ancestral property of my slave's house, which used good bricks, stones and wood, barely survived the wind and rain for more than ten years, and finally became a nearby village. The largest house in the river bank that was lucky to be preserved. Since Xiaohezi can be found, maybe someone else will be able to find it one day in the future. No matter how bad it is, people from a village can do it. As long as someone comes back, maybe they will know my parents The whereabouts of relatives...Xiaohezi and I have tried our best to repair the house, and we have been waiting..."

Waiting for loved ones who may no longer be alive.

Guarding the dream home of someone who doesn't know where.

But now the inn is gone.

A crescent moon, a river.

Jiangyue once took photos of the old man, but the old man did not see the moon tonight.

"...I don't know the history of the people behind the scenes."

Meng Qi closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "But this person must have other actions. As long as the lady of the store is willing to wait patiently and observe the movements of the Jingzhou army and the Qi Dynasty navy, you may be able to see the fox's tail of that person."

"Master Meng?"

"Whether it's Huang Liu or the leader of the scout battalion, they all pushed themselves into a dead end and a trap. Today, the Qi Dynasty scouts are on one side, the Jingzhou navy is on the second side, Huang Liu and the people who ordered him are the third party, I guess. This person is very likely to be the fourth party... Even if we go ashore to arrest people, we can only see the Jingzhou generals being used. It is not known how he persuaded the Jingzhou army or King Jing, but since he intends to provoke the two parties, Definitely won’t stop there.”

"This--"

Lady Tao felt anxious when she heard this, and she wanted to ask more questions, but she held back.

Meng Qi was just passing by and had nothing to do with this matter.Mrs. Tao asked herself that she could have the cheek to ask because the people behind the scenes falsely used the name of the national teacher as an enmity with Meng Qi.Without this stubble, Mrs. Tao felt that it would be difficult to even speak.

People in the Jianghu are unwilling to get involved in the affairs of the government, and Meng Qi may not want to get involved regardless of the Qi Dynasty or the three kings of Chu.

Lady Tao thought a lot and became more and more silent.

Mo Li sent a voice transmission to Meng Qi: "Not from Xiliang?"

"No, the styles of the two are not similar. Ayan Puka has spent decades preparing slowly, with mental calculations and inadvertently. Although he is an ambitious hero, his long-term blind career has sapped his ambition, and he is extremely cautious in everything. .This person is using a conspiracy, like a sand table cloth, and he is full of confidence in himself. This is the style of a counselor. He will not hide himself for a long time, and once he makes a move, there will be a result."

Meng Qi's eyes shone faintly in the firelight.

He hadn't encountered such an opponent for a long, long time.

The previous Ayan Puka awakened his long-silent heart of plotting and fighting wits, and now this unknown person directly added to the flames.

"Doctor, the three kings of Chu and Chu may have someone high-ranking." Meng Qi's tone changed. He looked at the red river bank and murmured, "If you want to hide yourself and maintain a certain amount of power, you can only choose three ways." He is king. He appears to be serving the Three Kings, but his eyes don’t stop at Jiangnan. The master he really serves...is he himself? Or is it a young hero whom he favors?"

Sudden attack, wanting King Jing to start a war with the Qi Dynasty, what is he planning?

Mo Li then pondered, then he sighed.

"doctor?"

"It's nothing, I just feel that there are quite a few ambitious people in the world." Mo Li frowned deeply, "I don't know where Ayan Puka is, and now there is another person who wants to fight against King Jing .”

Hearing this, Meng Qi laughed and said: "Since ancient times, there have never been many ambitious people. The few are only those who are capable and ambitious. As for the ups and downs, the ups and downs...Doctor, you and I are not knights in the storybook. Those who make trouble for us will not line up one after another, abide by the law that if the front does not fall, the back will never appear, and the world will not be like the surprises and aspirations of the book population. The only heroes in the world are Shi Jun and Cao Er'."

Mo Li revealed the truth mercilessly: "You said earlier that the troubled times wiped out talented people and capable people, leaving only mediocre and villainous people."

"Cough." Meng Qi touched his nose, but didn't speak.

The river was surging, and the boat moved extremely fast under the impetus of inner strength, and the five or six miles of water were fleeting.

Before Mo Li went ashore, he specifically asked Mrs. Tao where the innkeeper's iron shirt kung fu came from.

Mrs. Tao said that she brought back a few martial arts secret books from Sichuan. Her cousin was straight-headed and couldn't learn sword skills, hidden weapons, or internal strength.

Mo Li shook his head, and stretched out his hand to check the pulse of the buddy.

"No matter what kind of kung fu, it's too much to go too far. If you practice hard, you need someone to guide you all the time. Although Lingdi's kung fu is great, the dark wounds in the meridians should not be underestimated. It doesn't matter now. Once the age is over, the dark wounds will be more serious." attack."

Mo Li reported the prescription while talking. He was about to ask Meng Qi for a pen and paper, but he saw Mrs. Tao muttering something next to her. After listening carefully, she probably memorized the name and dosage of the medicine.

"Do you understand medicine?"

"Don't dare, my family has some hidden weapons to quench poison, so I have learned a little bit, and I don't know how to cure diseases. It's okay to memorize prescriptions." Lady Tao replied with her head bowed.

Mo Li paused, then reported the prescription again, and waited for Mrs. Tao to repeat it before continuing: "Decoct the medicine three times with slow fire, and take it for three months first. In three months, Brother Qixing and I will come again Here, refer to the time to make a diagnosis and treatment and change the prescription."

He didn't mention his whereabouts, and he didn't talk about investigating what happened tonight, but Mrs. Tao seemed to have taken a reassurance.

——Just be back.

It is heartbreaking that the inn is gone, but nothing will happen to the only relatives around me.

Lady Tao even heard a clue from Mo Li's tone, maybe the two of them crossed the river, it was not as simple as traveling in mountains and rivers, and they might get involved in the chaos of Jingzhou.

As soon as Meng Qi lifted his foot, without seeing how he moved, he was already lightly stepping on the shore.

"The grandparents and grandchildren will be entrusted to the store's wife, just take them to the village to live in peace."

Lady Tao bowed her head in response, knowing that Meng and Qi would leave here, so she hurriedly said, "Thank you, Master Meng, thank you..."

She suddenly got stuck because she didn't know what to call the ink carp.It's a bit casual to call him a doctor, let's call him an old man, and it's not respectful enough without a surname.

While hesitating, he was pushed on the back by the buddy's big palm.

"He...they're gone."

Lady Tao suddenly raised her head, only to see two figures gradually disappearing into the dense night in the distance, without any trace.
