Chapter 484 Liu Shuyu

"Even if a tiger is in a desperate situation, how can a wild dog bully him..." Su Ziyue whispered to herself, her black and white eyes became brighter and brighter. She felt that her second brother was full of ambition and confidence. It seemed that nothing could stump him, and no enemy could scare him. He was worthy of being a famous hero, the first on the current list!

This is what a real man is!

Compared with her second brother, the children of the noble families who usually come and go are like children who have not been weaned, full of childishness. Even if they have a deep family background, they are just arrogant without confidence.

She began to ask her brother about his various legendary experiences in a familiar way, chattering and excited. Her face flushed and powdered. It was not until Meng Qi coughed twice that she woke up, covered her lips, and said in a panic: "Oh no, I forgot that you are injured, second brother."

She slowly gave up the slightly polite title of second brother.

"Well, I'll tell you later." Meng Qi felt a natural affinity for this "same father and same mother" sister. "But the things in the martial arts world are always thrilling and exciting when you hear others talk about them. I wish I could experience them myself, but people in the martial arts world know that there are often murderous intentions behind the excitement. Many people have been buried in dark corners before they have created their own stories. Their bodies have become smelly and are gnawed by rats and wild dogs, and no one cares about them."

He was afraid that Su Ziyue thought the martial arts world was too beautiful, just like all the boys and girls who ran away after reading a few legendary novels and listening to a few storytellings.

Su Ziyue nodded in agreement, but it was not known whether she heard it or not: "Second brother, go in and rest and heal your wounds. I'll leave first."

She took a few steps and suddenly uttered a low "ah". She turned around and ran back, feeling shy and anxious: "Daddy asked me to bring you healing elixirs."

She was obviously too excited just now and forgot about it.

Meng Qi's injury was neither serious nor minor. It would be a waste to use the Da Huan Dan, and there were no other elixirs. He was worried about where to get some elixirs, and now he had a chance to take it.

Su Ziyue patted her chest, feeling lucky that she had not completely forgotten about it. She said goodbye again and left. Halfway through, she paused again and jumped back like a little rabbit: "Second brother, I forgot to say one thing. When the three brothers of the Ke family challenge you tomorrow, many children of the aristocratic families in the capital will come to watch, and Sister Liu Shuyu of the Liu family will also come."

She looked like she wanted to perform well.

Who is Liu Shuyu... Meng Qi was completely confused.

As if seeing Meng Qi's doubts, Su Ziyue smiled and said, "Sister Liu is the second daughter of Uncle Liu, the God Constable Liu. She is smart and beautiful, has a photographic memory, is knowledgeable, and is gentle and generous. She is the most admirable. I don't know how many children from noble families can't sleep because of her, but she is very upright and never..."

In her opinion, the only one who can match Sister Liu is her second brother, and the only one who can match her second brother seems to be Sister Liu.

Meng Qi's mouth twitched when he heard it, and he interrupted him quickly, pretending to be a rude man: "I don't know how old Miss Liu is now, what level of cultivation she has reached, what kind of skills she is good at, and whether she has the strength to be ranked?"

This inexplicable pairing completely violated his aesthetic taste.

Su Ziyue was stunned when he heard it. The first question of the second brother was normal, but the following ones were simply incredible. This was not asking the opponent he was fighting with!

She answered subconsciously: "Sister Liu is about the same age as you. Although she is born weak, she is extremely intelligent and has a high level of comprehension. She is also good at the Liu family's 'Parting Blade' and 'Meeting Sword'. Because she has not mastered the outdoor moves, she is still far from the human list..."

She suddenly realized and hurriedly said: "Second brother, do you look down on Sister Liu? She is gentle and virtuous, considerate and generous, good at calligraphy and painting, and can recite all the books she has read. She is called the 'Fairy of Hundred Knowledge'..."

Meng Qi smiled and stopped Su Ziyue from talking: "It's not that I look down on her, but I am used to being casual. I like to wander around the world, take revenge, and pursue martial arts. The wife in my mind should be able to walk side by side with me, to enjoy the romance together, to discuss the supreme martial arts, and to fight the enemy together. I can rest assured to give my back to her."

"Although the fairy is good, it is not what I want!"

He said frankly, trying to dispel Su Ziyue's idea, so that she would not give up the matchmaking and entangle in bloody things.

Su Ziyue was stunned by what she heard, but she was not disappointed. Instead, she felt a yearning for the kind of husband-and-wife relationship described by her second brother. This was different from the marriage of the Su family and even many other aristocratic families.

"A fairy couple..." This word suddenly popped up in her heart.

After finally sending her sister away, Meng Qi pushed open the room and stepped into Su Ziyuan's old world.

It was very clean inside, and many sundries seemed to have been thrown away. Meng Qi walked to the bookshelf with a strange sense of familiarity and took down a stack of paper.

This was Su Ziyuan's calligraphy practice. It can be seen that he worked very hard. Of course, it was very different from Meng Qi's current handwriting.

"Fortunately, there is physical memory, and some of the inner character still exists..." Meng Qi exhaled. As long as there was a little resemblance, he would not be afraid of being suspected. After all, when Su Ziyuan was sent to Shaolin, his handwriting was far from being finalized.

With an inexplicable sense of familiarity, Meng Qi walked around every corner of the room and saw wooden knives and swords, as well as the unique four treasures of the study.

Sitting on the bed, Meng Qi stroked the wooden sword within reach, as if he felt the pain, despair, sadness and reluctance of a child knowing that he was about to be sent away. He placed the wooden sword and knife beside the bed to protect himself.

Meng Qi sighed deeply: "You must want to know why you were sent away... You must want to come back here with dignity..."

As if sensing Su Ziyuan's "wish", Meng Qi collected his thoughts, swallowed the elixir, and meditated to heal his wounds.

Although most of the power of the Thunder Blade was eliminated under his own resistance, and the Immortal Seal Method dissolved it, the defense of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art was not broken, but his own true energy was disrupted, and the purple lightning was out of control, causing considerable internal injuries. Even with the help of medicine, it would take at least three days to recover.

"Only 50% to 60% of my strength is left..." Meng Qi thought to himself, "Why would Shenhua appear in the capital of gods... Is it because of the destruction of Tianmen and Luojiao, or the Qionghua Banquet? Are they really in collusion with Zhao Laosan?"

Gradually, Meng Qi entered into a state of concentration and digested the effect of the medicine.

…………

The next morning, in the main house of the Su family.

"Do you want to worship your ancestors?" Su Li, the Marquis of Shenwei, thought that Meng Qi would come to him early in the morning to ask about the Qionghua Banquet, but he actually made this request.

This simply surprised and delighted him. Yesterday, Su Ziyuan still looked like he had a grudge and did not mention this matter at all. It seemed that he did not want to re-enter the Su family, but today he actually took the initiative to propose to worship his ancestors!

Was he frightened by the fight with Waijing last night, or did he see the things in the old room and evoke his inner affection?

"Yes." Meng Qi did not explain the reason.

This may be one of the wishes of "Little Su Ziyuan".

"Good, very good!" Su Li said twice, leading Meng Qi to the ancestral house on the west side.

"Father..." Meng Qi felt that this address was extremely awkward. "What exactly is the competition at the Qionghua Banquet?"

Su Li's mouth curled slightly: "The emperor seems to want to test several princes, or perhaps he also has the idea of ​​looking at the next generation of talents from each family. The specific test method is arbitrary and I am not sure."

He suddenly laughed softly: "You have always wanted to show off in front of the emperor, take the lead, and boast about your family since you were a child. Now it seems that you have not changed. No wonder you are yearning for the Qionghua Banquet..."

Meng Qi did not pay attention to what Su Li said later. He just felt that his mind was buzzing, as if he fell into a certain illusion, seeing the deep and empty universe, and seeing the dazzling and mysterious cause and effect lines.

Since he has successfully practiced the secret art of cause and effect, whenever it involves his own major cause and effect, Meng Qi always has a similar spiritual perception!

"Is this Su Ziyuan's biggest wish? He wants to show off in front of others, get the emperor's praise, and glorify his family?" Meng Qi frowned slightly.

As for why Su Ziyuan had such a wish, Meng Qi had no idea. Perhaps it was because of what he had seen and heard, perhaps he was afraid of being abandoned and wanted to have a more stable position in the family, or perhaps it was a simple dream of a young man. In short, it didn't matter.

Meng Qi concealed it very well. Su Li didn't notice his abnormality. He said to himself: "Any princes and courtiers who are invited to participate in the Qionghua Banquet can bring another person. Since Ziyu has been adopted by your mother, your father has to bring him. But your fifth uncle will also attend the banquet, so let him take you in."

Huh, Meng Qi breathed a sigh of relief quietly. The matter of sneaking into the Qionghua Banquet was initially resolved.

Not long after, the two arrived at the Su family ancestral hall. Before entering, Meng Qi felt a wave of tyrannical thoughts washing back and forth, as if there were stormy waves inside.

This is the remaining will of the dead strong man in the outer scene. The more recent the death, the stronger it is.

Meng Qi took a deep breath, calmed down, and stepped forward with a firm will. He said silently in his heart:

"I will bear your body and your karma!"

He worshiped solemnly, his mind was empty and he didn't think about anything else. When he finished worshiping, he suddenly found that his body was much lighter, as if it was less restrained and more lively!

It really worked... Meng Qi struck while the iron was hot and asked in a low voice: "Father, why did you send me to Shaolin?"

Su Li was stunned and sighed: "Since it has passed, don't ask again. The past is like yesterday's death."

He paused, and his voice was restrained, only ringing softly in the ancestral hall: "In short, be careful of your fifth uncle, people's hearts are separated by their stomachs..."

Be careful of Su Yue again? Meng Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, and was about to ask again, when he suddenly heard Su Li say: "Your injuries have not healed yet, why did you agree to compete with the Ke brothers?"

Them? Meng Qi didn't take the Ke brothers seriously at all. They had nothing to do with the things he was thinking about last night and this morning. He was a little dazed when he heard it suddenly.

He immediately smiled and said, "What if they have half the strength?"

Su Li looked at him carefully and said, "Then go quickly. They are waiting for you in the martial arts arena."

He believed that his son, who was already the number one on the list, knew his own strength better than anyone else. If he thought it was okay, then it must be okay.

Meng Qi temporarily suppressed his doubts and walked slowly to the martial arts arena.

He was familiar with the Su family's arrangement.

The martial arts arena was crowded with people, all dressed in brocade and jade robes. Among them, a woman was the most conspicuous. She had an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, a pair of almond eyes that looked around but not fierce, and her eyes were like water, showing her gentleness. Su Ziyue and other beautiful girls surrounded her, like stars surrounding the moon.

Liu Shuyu... Meng Qi guessed who she was without any introduction.

On the other side, three people were staring at Meng Qi with eager eyes. The leader was tall and graceful, with a good appearance, but with a slightly resentful and sarcastic look.

Su Ziyue came up and whispered to Meng Qi: "Second brother, the other two are here to join in the fun. They have just opened nine orifices. The main one is the one in the middle. His name is Ke Changji, the third son of the Ke family. He is already 34 years old. He opened all nine orifices a few years ago, but because he failed to master the external scene moves and lacked a record of restraining strong enemies, he was not on the list of people. Now maybe he has a connection with heaven and man..."

Although Meng Qi often encounters opponents who have mastered the external scene moves, this is mainly because he is at a high level and encounters strong enemies. In fact, most young warriors with inheritance cannot master the external scene moves or practice a certain external scene unique skills to a small perfection. For a martial arts sect like Zhenwu, there are only about ten people in this generation who can do it, and there is no one in the Ke family of Shendu!

Meng Qi smiled and patted her shoulder: "It's not the sympathy of heaven and man."

Su Ziyue was stunned: "You dare to challenge me, my second brother?"

She felt that this was an insult to her second brother.

Ke Changji stepped forward and laughed:

"I have been in seclusion for many years. As soon as I came out of seclusion, I heard that the mad knife pointed at my Ke family. Is this true?"

He showed his momentum and the situation changed.

"Half-step outside!" Su Ziyue covered her mouth.
