This action successfully made Yao Xingliu and Li Chong forget that there was a zombie outside the door. Their fear was greatly relieved, and their faces twitched slightly.
What was this' no date '?
Knock, knock, knock. The knocking sounded again, but not as hurried as before. It was slow and long, and seemed very polite.
"Who is it?" Mengqi asked lazily.
Hey, trying to scare me before? It's not like I haven't seen zombies before!
"Corpse herder." A hoarse and dry voice floated in from outside the door.
Phew, Yao Xingliu and Old Li both breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a corpse herder, not a ghost or a zombie!
After exhaling, Yao Xingliu seemed to think of something and suddenly blushed. He looked up at the dark night sky and said, "Are some people always so careless? When encountering an unexpected situation, they don't avoid it first, but open the door. Sure enough, they don't use their brains and only know how to drink. "
Mengqi just smiled at Yao Xingliu's disguise and said nothing. He looked at the door and said, "That's right. If you want to stay, you should honestly tell me your name."
He opened the door again and saw three figures standing outside. The first one was a young man in his twenties, but his skin was dull and his cheeks were thin. His facial features were not bad, but they were gloomy and terrifying. He was covered in a black robe and held a corpse exorcism stick in his hand. He wore a pointed black hat and a black line hung from his waist. On the other end of the line hung a Mountain-moving Seal.
"An expert …" Meng Qi made a definite judgment.
Although this man did not have Protective Upstanding Qi and had not reached Nine Apertures, Mengqi's "Immortal Pressing Art" could not find any trace of genuine Qi flow. His whole body was like a dead corpse, and everything was hidden deep inside his body.
On the young man's right was the zombie from just now. Its tongue hung out of its mouth and hung down to its throat, jumping up and down. It did not give people a sense of danger. Mengqi estimated that an ordinary Four Apertures master could kill it as long as he was not afraid and had strong Qi and blood.
On the young man's left was a middle-aged man with a pale face and weak breath. He was half human and half ghost, but he stood there like half an iron tower, with an awe-inspiring temperament. He had not made a move, but he was already admirable.
In Mengqi's spiritual mind, he was more dangerous than the young man. He might have already opened the Hidden Latch of Life and Death!
Since they had come, Mengqi would not avoid them. He said calmly, "Come in. Don't walk around and don't scare the children and the old."
"You!" Little Yao gnashed his teeth in hatred. However, he was one of the Seven Disciples of Zhenwu after all. He also judged that the newcomer's strength was extraordinary. He did not argue with Meng Qi and silently drew out his Yin-Yang Swords.
The zombie herder nodded gloomily and followed Meng Qi to sit beside the bonfire. The middle-aged man and the zombie stood beside him. They were not afraid of fire like ordinary ghosts and corpses.
"Is he alive or dead …" Meng Qi sat by the fire casually, muttering to himself. Even with his strength, he couldn't tell if the middle-aged man was dead or alive!
However, he had many tricks up his sleeves, so he wasn't afraid.
Except for Mengqi, who was leisurely baking a steamed bun, everyone was silent. After a while, the zombie exorcism looked up at Yao Xingliu. When he was about to speak, he suddenly turned his head to the wall and said in a hoarse voice, "Who is it?"
The zombie exorcism man looked at everyone, and his eyes obviously stayed on Yao Xingliu for a while. He turned a blind eye to Mengqi and Li Chong, who were hiding their cultivation with Eight Nine Mysteries. He seemed to think that they were not worth his time.
Meng Qi moved his gaze away from the fragrant steamed bun and looked in that direction with a smile on his face. The corpse herder was slower than him by a breath before he realized it.
"I am most afraid of ghosts and ghosts, so I don't dare to meet them. That's why I hide." A woman in a red dress came out from the corner.
She looked delicate, like a lady from a noble family or a young madam of an aristocratic family. Her red dress and red shoes were like a torch, illuminating everyone's heart. She was Xiao Yue, the "Red Hand"!
"It's Head Keeper Xiao. What brings you here so late at night?" Mengqi acted as if it was a matter of course. He was not surprised at Xiao Yue's arrival at all.
Xiao Yue pursed her lips and smiled, "What Head Keeper? You call me like a bandit. Arrester Little Su, just call me Madam Xiao. "
Bandit? How could a bandit be so ruthless! Mengqi thought.
Zheng Jushan told Mengqi and Li Chong to stay and let Xiao Yue remember him.
Xiao Yue paused and said, "I saw Xingliu go out of the city at night. I was afraid that he had an accident, so I followed him."
She called him so affectionately that Yao Xingliu's eyebrows twitched as if he had the urge to go crazy.
"I'd be a fool to believe you … You might have deliberately leaked it to Yao Xingliu so that he could scout for you …" Mengqi mumbled to himself, but he did not deny it. He smiled and said, "It's late at night. Madam Xiao, you should warm yourself before leaving."
"I'd like to see what you're up to!"
"Arrester Little Su is so considerate. Tsk, if the girls in my brothel saw your pretty face and smile, they would definitely skin you alive." This was exactly what Xiao Yue wanted, but she did not look at Mengqi. Instead, she looked at the corpse herder and Yao Xingliu cautiously.
Xiao Yue occupied eighty percent of the brothels in Yangxia.
Since Xiao Yue came in, the corpse herder had focused most of his attention on her. It was not because he was seduced by her beauty, but because she was the strongest on the surface and had the vital energy to protect herself.
After Xiao Yue sat down, she pretended to warm herself by the fire without looking at Mengqi. She had a pair of fair, tender, and slender fingers, exuding an indescribable charm.
Seeing that the corpse herder was unmoved, she coughed and said to the void in front of her, "May I know what you're looking for?"
"I'm looking for someone," the corpse herder answered hoarsely without looking up.
"Old Zhong and I are old friends. Some things have been stored with him for too long. I don't know if he took them with him," Xiao Yue said vaguely.
Yao Xingliu narrowed his eyes. He was not stupid. He had already realized that he had been used as a pawn by Xiao Yue.
"I want to kill him and take away something. I don't know if it's what you're looking for." The corpse herder clenched his stick.
Their Qi Ji clashed. A small part of their attention was on Yao Xingliu, but the majority was on each other.
Li Chong whispered Amitabha, seeking protection. As an experienced arrester, how could he not see the turbulent undercurrent? He only felt frightened and hoped that he would not be affected.
The corpse herder slowly got up, so did Xiao Yue. Their eyes met, and sparks seemed to fly.
"Ahem." Suddenly, they heard a cough. Out of the corner of their eyes, they saw Arrester Little Su, who had a handsome appearance and a clean smile, slowly stood up.
"I have to make something clear. This is the crime scene, and it's of great importance. It's under the jurisdiction of Six Fan School, so it's considered a public place. If you want to do anything, you have to ask for my permission first. For example, if you want to fight, you have to go outside. You can't destroy the scene or the corpse," Mengqi said in a business-like manner. As an arrester, he had to act like an arrester!
Li Chong naturally opened his mouth and forgot to close it. Didn't Arrester Little Su see that both of them were fierce?
How dare he put on the airs of an arrester!
The corpse herder and Xiao Yue were slightly stunned. Their Qi Ji dissipated and they looked at Mengqi at the same time. How dare he talk nonsense? Did he really think that they wouldn't dare to do anything just because he was carrying the name of Six Fan School?
Yao Xingliu looked like he didn't know this guy and turned his head to the side. He was confident in the strength of "Arrester Little Su", but this pretentious look was really asking for a beating!
Xiao Yue smiled, and two short swords slipped out of her sleeves. "Arrester Little Su, what if I want to fight with you?"
Her short swords and hilts were connected to her hands by ribbons.
Li Chong came to his senses and was about to pull Arrester Little Su back to apologize with a smile, but he grabbed nothing. Arrester Little Su stepped into the yard and pulled out a long sword with black and white light. "Then let's do it in the yard."
"Hey, aren't you afraid of destroying the scene and the corpse now?" Xiao Yue's voice had just faded when the ribbons fluttered and two short swords shot towards Mengqi.
However, most of her attention was still on the corpse herder. She only released her genuine Qi and wrapped it around the short swords. Only an expert could break her Upstanding Qi!
Yao Xingliu sighed, but no one knew what he was sighing about.
Mengqi's long sword pierced through Xiao Yue's Upstanding Qi!
With a soft sound, he directly pierced through Xiao Yue's Upstanding Qi wrapped around the short swords!
The long sword reflected the light of the fire as if it was going to cut through the ribbons.
Xiao Yue did not expect such a situation. Her expression changed and her towering chest trembled. She changed her body technique gracefully and raised her short swords to block the long sword like a poem or a song.
Mengqi's long sword suddenly turned midway and pierced through the short swords, directly towards Xiao Yue's chest.
Xiao Yue could not change her move in time, so she could only take a step back and reorganize her defense.
Li Chong was dumbfounded. Arrester Little Su actually forced Miss Xiao to retreat?
This was unrealistic!
Could it be that he had been bewitched by the zombies?
Mengqi's long sword changed from a stab to a slash and once again slashed at the ribbons.
Xiao Yue took a deep breath and took another step back. The ribbons shook, and the short swords were like the moonlight of the river and the sea, beautiful beyond compare.
However, she did not expect the smiling arrester Little Su to also change his move with his long sword. Their coordination was so good that it was as if he took the initiative to move his wrist towards the tip of the sword.
She secretly cursed. If she had not been wary of the corpse herders and careless, she would not have fallen into such a situation.
Her "Array-breaking Sword Dance" was famous in Yangxia. Her moves were always graceful and could kill people without losing its elegance. However, today she could not even stab with her sword. She was like a puppet on a string, extremely embarrassed.
Xiao Yue originally had a killer move, but once she used it, there was no way out. Moreover, she felt that arrester Little Su did not have any killing intent, so she could not "generate" any killing intent in her heart.
After taking another step back, Xiao Yue suddenly tripped and fell to the ground. She had retreated to the edge of the stairs.
Her Genuine Qi was divided into two parts, colliding with each other and exploding violently, giving her the strength to rebound. However, the long sword slashed over her head. If she jumped up, her head would be in danger!
Xiao Yue had no choice but to use Thousand Catties Fall to forcefully sit down and avoid the sword.
She was about to attack again, but she suddenly froze because the flickering flame behind her brought waves of warmth. At this moment, she was sitting exactly where she had just left!
Exactly the same!
"That's more like it. Sit still." Mengqi put his sword back into its sheath with a faint smile. "You don't have to worry about damaging the scene or the corpses when you fight with me."
