After entering the city and entering the post house, Lu Guan waited for the emperor's summons, while Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu found an excuse to visit their old friends and went to the street together. 23us.

Meng Qi recalled his previous fight with Evil Lord, and was smug and planning to practice his Heavenly Sword when he suddenly heard Ruan Yushu say casually: The sword just now was one of Ananda's breaking sword techniques.

Yes. Meng Qi didn't hide it, he wanted to hear the evaluation of his swordsmanship from the direct descendants of the Langya Ruan family.

Ruan Yushu walked through the crowded streets, his eyes not squinting, calm and composed: he is very strong, and the Thunder Sword Mad Monk is indeed well-deserved.

hehe. Meng Qi could only answer this. It is not easy to correct other people's prejudices. Fortunately, the golden bell was not used before, otherwise the Mang King Kong would have lived up to his name.

The streets of the capital intersected in a chessboard shape, and the Xiaoxiang Tower was far away from the post house. Meng Qi and the two spent half an hour asking for directions along the way, and finally reached the local market and saw a restaurant with red lanterns hanging high.

Just when he was thinking about how to inquire about Luo Shengyi and his party, Luo Shengyi's hearty and heroic voice came to his ears: Xiao Meng's name has been spread throughout the capital, and there are really no deceitful people under his great reputation.

He and Ge Huaien stood by the steps of the restaurant, as if they were waiting specially.

You, Meng Qi, are a little confused.

Luo Shengyi smiled and said: "There are many people here, let's talk after we go in."

Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu nodded and silently followed Luo Shengyi and Ge Huai'en through the lobby of the restaurant, across the small bridge and flowing water, and arrived at an elegant and quiet courtyard at the back.

As soon as you entered the city, I got a hint from the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation. After closing the door and carefully checking the surroundings, Luo Shengyi opened his mouth to explain.

This is how collaborative tasks should be, Meng Qi suddenly thought.

At this moment, the cold and distant voice of the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation sounded again: The second main mission begins. Help Lu Guan regain the emperor's trust, worship the general and command troops, and successfully reward four hundred good deeds. Failure will deduct the corresponding good deeds.

Regaining the Emperor's Trust Meng Qi frowned slightly and looked at Luo Shengyi, Brother Luo, your main mission 1 should be related to this, right

Luo Shengyi nodded gently, pointed at the table full of food and wine, and said while eating.

Meng Qi did not shy away from Luo Shengyi and Ge Huaien. He carefully checked the safety of the food and wine, and looked at Ruan Yushu's mouth before he started eating with confidence.

Xilu was victorious, garrisoned in the upper reaches of the Pei River, and sent envoys to negotiate. The conditions were harsh, and the emperor suffered a stroke due to anger and fell into a coma. Luo Shengyi said calmly, our main task one is to gain the trust of a certain prince and temporarily prevent the peace talks. Now it seems that if we can help the prince we support ascend the throne, main task two can be successfully completed.

Meng Qi nodded thoughtfully: I wonder which prince you support

This is indeed the solution.

The Third Prince, only he is willing to accept us. Luo Shengyi said calmly, as if he was talking about something unimportant.

Gwynne sat quietly aside. He did not interrupt and was very well-mannered. Ruan Yushu concentrated on the meal with elegant posture. Luo Shengyi couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the wind and lingering clouds.

What kind of power is there on the third prince's side? Meng Qi heard that Xian Ge knew Yayi, and probably understood that the third prince was the weakest party, otherwise he would not have accepted Luo Shengyi and others with unknown origins.

Luo Shengyi played with the wine glass: not too strong but not weak either. At least Xiyue Zhenren, who has entered the subtle realm, supports him, and there are others in the same realm, but I don’t know who it is.

His competitor, Meng Qi, can still restrain his foodie nature when he is serious. Not like the guy next to me.

Luo Shengyi put down his wine glass: The prince is the orthodox one. Behind him are the national master, the Ruyi monk, and many courtiers. The fourth prince is a disciple of the Sword Emperor. He is quite popular in the world. There are many important officials in the court who secretly communicate with him. Seven The prince is the most trusted by the emperor. He is full of poems and books, and is skilled in bow and horse, but he has no foundation in the world. Originally, the left minister of the political hall wanted to belong to him because of his relationship with the emperor. Now that the emperor is in coma, he wonders if there is a chance to wake up, and he is alienated. Got him.

However, now he seems to know his shortcomings. He knows how to communicate with the courtiers and secretly pick up the masters. I suspect that the Demon Queen has secretly entered the capital and is living in the Seventh Prince's Mansion.

Meng Qi pondered for a moment and said: How capable are the masters in this world to influence the situation of the government

I once had a fight with someone who was suspected of being a demon queen, and barely escaped. In addition to not being able to cause changes in the celestial phenomena, her strength and realm were close to half a step outside. This kind of character, if there are no masters in the imperial city or the court, can completely control her. Anyone who dissatisfied with the political situation can be assassinated. Luo Shengyi breathed out, obviously the brief fight with the suspected demon queen made him a little scared.

He continued: However, Confucianism in this aristocratic family is strong, and they have given up all the rituals, music, and imperial books. Those who can be called great Confucians are not weak, such as the right prime minister, the reincarnated star king De Rang, and those who are half Confucian and half Taoist. The Imperial Master Changle Zhenren, they all insist on the distinction between the elder and the younger, reject heretics, and despise those who abuse force. If they want to assassinate the emperor and the prince, even the Demon Queen and the Sword Emperor have to plan for a long time to find an opportunity.

In this case, the prince has the highest possibility of succeeding to the throne, and almost no one can stop him. Meng Qi frowned.

Luo Shengyi smiled confidently and said: The emperor has been in power for many years, and as he gets older, he is wary of the prince. He is very unhappy and suppresses him repeatedly. If it were not for the protection of the imperial adviser, I am afraid that the prince would have been deposed. Therefore, if there is According to the emperor's will, other princes have the same possibility of ascending the throne. However, after the emperor fell into coma, the right minister, who was always loyal to the emperor, stayed in the Taiji Hall at night, not giving anyone a chance to tamper with the will.

I can't explain this matter for a while, but I will take you to see the third prince tomorrow. You are now famous, and he will definitely take it very seriously.

Meng Qi had some objections to this matter. The third prince did not necessarily have to succeed to the throne for Lu Guan to regain his important position. The situation in the northwest was corrupt. As long as he could get rid of those who had enemies with him in the court, the new emperor would probably use him. But if the matter was that simple , the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation will not grant four hundred good deeds.

OK He thought for a while and decided to meet the third prince to see how popular and talented he was. Then, what about Cao Zhan

Just now he was wondering why only Luo Shengyi and Ge Huai'en were there, Cao Zhan was missing, and he didn't receive any notification that a newcomer had died.

He gained the trust of the third prince and was always at his disposal. Luo Shengyi said with an unchanging expression, for him, no matter what Cao Zhan wants to do, as long as it does not hinder him, there is nothing to care about. I heard that you fought against Evil Lord, how is the Immortal Seal, and how is his strength

He obviously also has the third side mission, so he is very concerned about the strength of Evil Lord and the specialness of the Immortal Seal. Moreover, he judged from Meng Qi's repeated attacks that he and he are close friends. Whoever is careless will lose. He and Evil Lord The strength comparison also applies to yourself.

Meng Qi thought about it for a moment and didn't hide anything, nor did he boast: If we fight head-on, even if I use all my strength, I can only save my life.

In the battle above the river, although Evil Lord took advantage of the power of the river, the power of the building, the boat, and the shadow to put himself at a disadvantage in the battle of qi and machines, he also struck down in the air, was not grounded, and was unable to change. Only then did he Injured by his own evil calamity, and because he was surprised to fall into the mortal world, he cautiously chose to withdraw. If they fought again, facing the Immortal Seal, his chances of winning were very low, unless thunderclouds gathered that day.

Meng Qi is fairly familiar with the Immortal Seal. He knows that it is a first-class method of absorbing energy, transforming it, and releasing energy. If one does not master the technique of highly condensing the true energy, it will be difficult to hurt the evil king. He can only rely on the sharpness of the evil calamity. and specific.

In this respect, Yama Luo Tie is stronger than Ananda Po Jie Sword Technique, because the first two moves of Ananda Po Jie Sword Technique are divergent in strength, confusing people's ears and eyes, and mainly use the sword of the soul, while Yama Luo Tie can see from the sword light that it is pure. Condensation, if arranged properly, is not without a chance of winning. Of course, it is very difficult to kill the evil king who has mastered the Immortal Seal Technique and the Phantom Demon Body Technique.

If I fight against the evil king again, I will have the Golden Bell Cover. Ananda’s sword-fighting technique, Yama Luo Tie, and Dugu’s Nine Swords are all open. The painting style that I finally corrected is wrong again. The person next to me will definitely say, well, Mang King Kong Meng Qi lived up to his reputation and looked out the window, feeling a little sad.

In other words, you are at a disadvantage. If we join forces, we may be able to kill the evil king. Before Luo Shengyi finished speaking, he denied this judgment. It is said that the Immortal Seal is very special and is not afraid of group battles.

Yes, I heard this rumor too. Of course, Meng Qi couldn't say that he had a very deep understanding of the Immortal Seal.

After a few more pleasantries and dinner, Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu said goodbye and left, making an appointment to meet here early tomorrow morning to go see the third prince.

It was getting late at this time, and many streets were very quiet. Meng Qi and Ruan Yushu were walking side by side, and finally couldn't suppress their curiosity: Apart from the sound of the piano to assist and killing people, don't you have any means to face the enemy head-on

Ruan Yushu glanced at him and played the guqin lightly.

The sound of the zheng was harsh, and a string played like a sharp sword.

That's it. Meng Qi was very happy that his curiosity was satisfied.

Ruan Yushu pressed down the strings, tied them up again, and continued to move forward calmly.

The two stepped onto the stone bridge and walked slowly. Suddenly, an old man with white hair appeared in front of them.

He was sitting on the stone steps, with his back to Meng Qi, and a long sword in front of him. His whole person seemed to be nothing, as if he was in between something and nothing, which gave people a very strange feeling.

Meng Qi's expression suddenly became solemn, he drew his sword and blocked Ruan Yushu behind him.

I heard that Xiao Meng, the Jingshen Sword, has powerful swordsmanship and only attacks but not defends, so I wanted to give it a try. The old man stood up slowly, his momentum changed, and like a long sword unsheathed, its sharp edge went straight into Meng Qi's heart. . .
