The main reason why Jin 'er came down to attack Ning Yi was that Ning Yi and the others didn't know how to fish and were fooling around. Since she had such an argument, it was not strange that Jin' er, who was "good at fishing", was asked to demonstrate.
In the past, she was considered to be a resourceful and quick-witted person in Golden Wind Brothel. It was just that she was always restrained by Ning Yi. Maybe it was because they were familiar with each other that she let down her guard. When she was about to row the boat into the water, she had already reacted, but it was already too late. Fortunately, Ning Yi, Xiaochan and the others also rowed the boat into the river happily.
Jin 'er was a good swimmer, but she wasn't born in a fisherman's family. She was bought by a brothel and lived near the water while learning various skills. She wasn't very good at fishing, but she was better than ordinary people. She and Yunzhu struggled for a while and used a small net to catch five or six fish of different sizes. As for Ning Yi, he was a little embarrassed. Xiaochan didn't have enough strength and the boat was shaking when she cast the net. In the end, the net fell into the river and they couldn't get it out. They had to row the boat back to the shore.
With this little interlude, Jiner held her head high and was extremely happy. Of course, after the fish were caught, they still handed it to the accompanying cooks to prepare. It was almost noon, not a good time to eat barbecue. Not long after, there were white clouds floating in the sky. Under the trees by the canal, the river breeze was gentle and cool. It was quite pleasant for this season.
They set up a table under the trees by the shore. After lunch, someone brought them watermelons that had been soaked in the well water of a nearby farm. The weather was good, so they didn't leave immediately. Some people talked about poetry, while others talked about the scenery. On Ning Yi's side, Wenren Bu 'Er and the others came after a while and chatted on the grass. Yunzhu, Jin' er and the others walked to the side. But Zhou Pei came over and squatted to listen to their conversation. Her eyes were wide open, sometimes surprised, sometimes enlightened.
Lu Junyi had already surrendered. He shouldn't have come out in public, but the people of the Office of Secret Investigation helped him change into an advisor's outfit and put on makeup. Only then could he come out for a walk. At this time, he was enjoying the shade nearby. Seeing that Ning Yi was having a lively conversation, Ning Yi even asked someone to bring him a brush and a small notebook. Occasionally, he would seriously record something on it. Only then did he use his internal energy to listen carefully. He heard that they were talking about the experts of Liangshan and even mentioned his name.
"… Jade Qilin Lu Junyi, Leopard Head Lin Chong, Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming, Flower Monk Lu Zhishen, Walker Wu Song, Black Whirlwind Li Kui, and the Nine-striped Dragon Shi Jin, the three brothers of the Ruan Family. I think they are all very powerful … Shi Jin separated from Zhu Wu and the others after the sneak attack at Hongze Lake. It's a pity that we couldn't kill him … But look, what do they have in common …"
"Officer Lu is indeed very powerful. I've heard about Lin Chong, Qin Ming, and Li Kui … But who is this Lu Zhishen that Liheng mentioned …"
"You don't even know Lu Zhishen? Flower Monk Lu Zhishen … "
"Lin Chong was said to be a military instructor in the capital. He is very powerful, but the young general called Yue Pengju seemed to be better than him."
"But we still didn't catch him …"
"They are martial brothers. Before we left Jiangning, the younger brother of the Yue Family came back to apologize to me and said that he let the other go. I can understand that." Ning Yi lowered his head and wrote before explaining. Lu Junyi was a little shocked. There were many powerful martial artists in Liangshan, but most of them were men of Jianghu. Their fame was limited to only one place. He didn't expect that Ning Yi could explain it so clearly. On the other side, Ning Yi had already raised his head and went back to the previous topic, "Wait … we are talking about their common points. Didn't you notice?"
Wenren Bu 'Er and her two assistants, plus the three brothers of the Qi Family, thought for a moment and couldn't help but look at each other. They didn't know what common points they had. They already knew about Ning Yi's ability. They must have found a breakthrough point. Lu Junyi was also listening carefully. He heard Ning Yi say seriously, "Common points, didn't you notice? Let me say it again. Jade Qilin … Leopard Head … Thunderbolt Fire … I forgot about the three brothers of the Ruan Family. You didn't find all the information at once … But they all have a common point, which is that they all have a very famous nickname! Am I right? "
Everyone was stunned. Ning Yi wrote down a few words on the notebook and said, "We are all in the underworld. It is very important to have a famous nickname. This is the brand. It seems that people in the north have this awareness. You guys are much worse in the south. Saint Duke Fang La is not bad. At first glance, you can tell that he is a fierce boss. Domineering Blade is a little simple, but it is also very domineering. But it always lacks a little artistic sense. Fang Qifo, you guys always call him Buddha General. But I have checked him. He used to have a nickname in Jianghu called 'Nine Appearances of the Cloud Dragon'. Your Qi Family's Soul Extracting Spear sounds a little bad … I said so, but you guys are not happy and refuse to admit your mistakes … Also, Wenren, you don't have a nickname, right? You used to run around all day. In the future, I am afraid that your nickname will become Waiter Wenren Bu 'Er … "
Everyone was already a little strange about Ning Yi's wild ideas. At this time, the three brothers of the Qi Family all had their faces fall. In fact, it was a little funny. Wenren Bu 'Er said, "Liheng, I am a spy. If too many people know my name, it will all be ruined …"
"You can't say it like that. Sometimes, if you give someone a famous name, but you can't find the person, it is very deterrent. In the future, give your teacher, Prime Minister Qin, a code name. Call him Old Ghost. You can call him Old Spear or something … Look at me, it is different. I am the bloody butcher Ning Liheng. I am very domineering when I say it. Sooner or later, everyone will be afraid of me … "
The sky was overcast, and the breeze from the river was cool and refreshing. Ning Yi sat on the grass and spoke, but he was not frivolous. Although he spoke casually, there was a sense of matter of fact in his words, and the atmosphere on the grass was very casual. Later on, Ning Yi asked who was more skilled in martial arts, such as whether Chen Fan could defeat Lu Junyi. The three Qi brothers expressed that Chen Fan was probably a notch higher than Lu Junwai. Lu Junyi overheard the conversation, but he had no idea who Chen Fan was. Even though Fang Qifo was famous in the world, Chen Fan wasn't that famous.
Speaking of Ba Dao, he had heard of him before.
"According to what Liheng said, if Liu Watermelon were to fight with Chen Fan, Chen Fan wouldn't be able to defeat Bao Daoyi. Liu Watermelon should still be slightly inferior. " This was what Qi Xinhan said. The three brothers had a deep hatred for Liu Watermelon, but now that they were chatting, it was nothing.
"When Liu Watermelon fought you, it was one against three … Is Chen Fan stronger?"
"Foshuai has always been protecting him and doesn't want him to become famous too early. We all know Chen Fan's martial arts. It's just that he uses all his strength on the battlefield. When it comes to one-on-one combat, his seniority is not high. When he was with Fang La, the elders wouldn't fight with him. The only one who could fight with him was Liu Watermelon. We are not familiar with him, so we rarely fight … At that time, we also knew that we might not be able to defeat him even if we fought shoulder to shoulder. Among us brothers, Xinhan is the most talented, but compared with Chen Fan and Liu Watermelon, he is still not enough … "
The three brothers hated Fang La more than Liu Watermelon. At this time, when Fang La's name was mentioned, there was no respect to be shown. Qi Xinyong shook his head and then said, "In the army, Fang La's martial arts were actually the most powerful, and Foshuai was almost the same as him. Next, it was Deng Yuanjue, Shi Bao, Si Xingfang, and my father's group. In our opinion, Chen Fan and Liu Watermelon have reached this level, and Bao Daoyi will be one level lower. Lu Yuanwai is slightly weaker than Chen Fan, but if he fights against Bao Daoyi, he will have enough chance to win … "
"Now that I put it this way, Bao Daoyi died in my hands, so the bloody-handed butcher should be in this position …"
Ning Yi was happily recording the names.
Wenren Bu 'Er looked over and felt a little strange, "What are you writing?"
"Something like the Martial Arts Ranking List … Compiled by Ning Liheng." Ning Yi folded the cover of the booklet and showed it to everyone. "I want to organize the names of the masters I collected into a book and list the top hundred masters in Jianghu. Now … look, the names that can be listed as the world's number one. First is the Great Devil Saint Gong Fang La and the Nine Appearances of the Cloud Dragon Fang Qi Buddha. The original number one master of the Imperial Boxing School in Bianliang is' Iron Arm 'Zhou Dong. Lu Yuanwai, Lin Chong, and the little brother of the Yue family are all his disciples. Although he is not in Bianliang now, I am afraid he is still recognized as the world's number one, but his nickname is a little bad … In addition, I heard two names in Hangzhou. One is' White Hair and Beauty 'Cui Xiaolu, who is said to be a witch from a brothel or something, very powerful. The other one is the former saintess of the Devil Cult, Sikong Nan. It is said that she is dead, but I have heard from Liu Watermelon that she was driven away by Fang La. Her martial arts are also very powerful, but now she is probably an old lady … Let's choose the world's number one from these five. Although River and Mountain Iron Sword Lu Hongti is definitely as powerful, I don't want her to be involved in this matter … "
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. "What is the use of this?"
"Compiling it into a book and distributing it to the world. Below these five, it will be the turn of Tyrant Blade Liu Dabiao, Deng Yuanjue, and Shi Bao … Since Hangzhou, I have been asking about these martial arts secrets, but I didn't have time at that time. I can start now, but I haven't summarized the information on Tian Hu and Wang Qing … I am going to list the world's top 100 masters and their life stories … Everyone likes to read this kind of thing … "
Qi Xinyong and the others were stunned for a long time. They were all fascinated by this kind of gossip. After all, they were also villagers and martial artists, so they were still interested in this kind of gossip. But they also felt that it was too unreliable for Ning Yi to do this. Sure enough, they heard Ning Yi say with a smile, "When the list is done, everyone will spread it, and then it will be their turn to have a headache. No one dares to provoke guys like Iron Arm Zhou Dong, and Shi Bao and Deng Yuanjue are also in the army. But it's different for those who go alone. There are people challenging them every day to become famous. Look, when people from Liangshan come out to commit crimes, they will find out. In the middle of the night, someone will run to their inn with a big knife and say, 'Li Kui, come out, I want to challenge you today to prove that I am the world's eightieth …' I guarantee that they will not be able to move an inch … "
He was enjoying himself. "People in the underworld fight all their lives for fame and reputation. Let's distribute this book through the government. Every year, the martial arts champion can also cooperate. We can make the Grandmaster Ranking, Master Ranking, and Rookie Ranking. Some people don't care, but ordinary people are very enthusiastic about it. I am planning to organize a group of people to specialize in storytelling. These martial arts anecdotes can also be told. If someone wants to be on the list and promote, no problem. Just pay … Do you want to be on the list? We are all on the same side, so don't be too ridiculous. I can give you a 20% discount … "
"Forget it." Qi Xinyong and the others' faces turned green. Things in the world sometimes sounded like nonsense, but if Ning Yi really wanted to carry it out, he might really succeed. If the name of being on the list spread to ordinary people, it would be very tempting, but it would definitely be followed by a bloody storm. As Ning Yi spoke, he also exhaled and looked at the booklet, shaking his head.
"About once a year. If it gets too popular, we can also vote for people like the Top Courtesan Award. We need to pay for the votes … I know that there are often such competitions in Bianliang for rankings, but the scale is a little small. If it really develops, not to mention the world's best in martial arts, literature, or Top Courtesan … Yes, I will open the world's number one professional evaluation company. Even the moral pioneers will be evaluated once a year. If ordinary people vote, I will charge one tael of silver! Not long after, I will be rich … "
Ning Yi chatted with the crowd. Sometimes, his tone was a little sad. It seemed that he was not entirely joking. In the end, the crowd couldn't tell which of his words were true and which were false, so they continued to talk. The cool breeze blew. When everyone had rested enough, they boarded the boat one after another and headed north.
