Chapter 184 Meng Niang’s master?
Meng Niang appeared too quickly.
In front of everyone's eyes, there was just a flash of red light and shadow passing by. In the blink of an eye, the feared third elder turned into a shocking pile of flesh and mud, lying on the spot.
Senior Sister Wu, who was seriously injured, also had her head broken.
In the world of cultivation, the differences in levels in the realm of heaven and wilderness are the most complicated. As for entering the Holy Realm, there is also a huge gap at each level. As a newcomer who has just stepped onto the threshold of the Holy Realm, the Third Elder is like a slap in the face compared to Meng Niang who has reached the ultimate perfection of the Holy Realm.
Meng Niang didn’t even use her full strength.
At this time, in the sky, there were two men with swords waiting for the third elder to bring back the eldest lady. As a result, they saw the third elder being slapped to death by a woman in red as lightly as flies.
Seeing this horrifying scene, the two men were heartbroken and immediately turned their swords around and tried to escape in a hurry.
But the next moment, a woman in a red wedding dress appeared in front of her.
“Where are you two going?”
Mengniang stared at the two of them with a smile, her skirts fluttering, and a faint chill floating on her beautiful jade.
One of them looked stern and said inwardly: "Who are you, sir? Do you know that we are from the Tianqing Mansion——"
Before the other party could finish speaking, Mengniang Hao raised her wrist lightly, her sleeves and robe were slightly raised. Moving, the two men's bodies suddenly dispersed, turning into a blood mist that filled the sky.
Young man, there is no need to listen to nonsense.
……
On a passenger ship.
It was quiet all around except for the howling wind.
The girl calmly opened her apricot eyes and held the cactus in her hand, feeling at a loss.
Until a guest vomited and broke the strange silence, everyone seemed to wake up from the shock. Their expressions were full of horror and fear, and everyone tensed up in fear.
At this time these people regretted boarding the ship.
If I were not still drifting on the river, surrounded by mist, I would have wanted to jump off the boat and swim to the shore.
Fortunately, after a while, nothing else happened.
No one came to arrest the eldest lady of Tianqing Mansion again, and the red figure with unfathomable cultivation and heart-stopping power never reappeared like mist.
For a while, the atmosphere on the ship was slightly peaceful.
Chu Qi, who was soaked in cold sweat, calmed down and directed the captain of the passenger ship to dispose of the body. He came to Jiang Shouzhong and asked in a low voice: "Master Jiang, do you know the mysterious woman who attacked just now?"
Jiang Shouzhong shook his head, "I don't know."
Chu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, then lowered his voice and asked, "Do you think it was the monster that killed the wealthy businessman?"
"If so, does Mr. Chu plan to arrest her?" Jiang Shouzhong asked with a smile.
Chu Qi showed a wry smile.
He can slap a master who has entered the holy realm to pieces and even grab a hammer.
"If you really want to continue the investigation, then keep an eye on that Yu Xiucai. You will definitely gain something. Of course, you can also give up the investigation. After all, the superiors will not care about cases with limited capabilities."
Jiang Shouzhong He patted Chu Qi on the shoulder and left with a smile.
Chu Qi’s expression was complicated.
Zheng, the leader of the Shenquan Gang, saw Jiang Shouzhong approaching. He quickly calmed down his previous arrogance, put on a warm smile on his face, clasped his fists with his hands, bowed and saluted, and his attitude changed completely.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't put on any airs. He nodded with a smile and entered his room leisurely.
Seeing that the other party was not angry because of his previous attitude, Gang Leader Zheng was relieved. Despite being ashamed, he admired Jiang Shouzhong's open-mindedness and couldn't help but secretly sigh that he was indeed a master's mind.
Jiang Shouzhong returned to the room and saw that Meng Niang had just washed her hands.
That slap was somewhat stained with blood.
“Why did you suddenly take action?” Jiang Shouzhong asked curiously.
It stands to reason that Meng Niang is a very principled demon. No matter how good the relationship between the two is, if they say nothing, they will definitely not break the rules.
This time the move was indeed a bit unexpected.
Meng Niang wiped her jade hands and said calmly: "It's nothing, I just feel unhappy recently, so I want to vent."
Jiang Shouzhong was speechless.
But Meng Niang didn’t lie. She was indeed feeling aggrieved recently.
Either you meet a super master like Luo Wanqing, or you are almost captured by the mysterious old Taoist priest, or you fail to protect Jiang Shouzhong, and you still have to struggle with the flower of the other side... All kinds of depression are squeezed and accumulated, and finally you see a very unhappy scene. The third elder who was pleased with his eyes couldn't help but slap him in the face.
Jiang Shouzhong smiled and said: "I thought you had changed your character and planned to be my guard."
"It's not impossible."
Meng Niang smiled sweetly, with a hint of arrogance in her smile. , with a hint of teasing, the corners of the red lips outlined a charming arc, "If one day you have the ability to subdue me, let alone be your guard, or serve as your servant, I will be happy to serve you. "
The woman's eyes were filled with waves, as if there was infinite charm contained in them, and Jiang Shou's heartbeat inexplicably accelerated.
It started.
This snake spirit starts to seduce!
Comrade Xiao Jiang’s test is coming!
Jiang Shouzhong silently recited "I am not a reckless hero, I am not Xu Xian" several times, calmed down his charm, and said seriously:
"Meng Niang, Tianqing Mansion, do you understand? I am. I know that it is a relatively famous sect in the world, and it is said that it has some involvement with the Zhuge family, but I don’t know the specific situation.”
Meng Niang stopped her teasing and nodded lightly, “It was indeed related to the Zhuge family. Involved, the wife of the first head of the Tianqing Palace was a woman from the Zhuge family, but later the relationship between the two families weakened and they no longer had much contact.
The current head of the Tianqing Mansion is called Leng Chaozong. His cultivation level was not obvious at first, but after turning into a demon, his cultivation level increased greatly, and he jumped into the top ten in the world. However, it also caused some controversy. "
The demon cultivator...
Jiang Shouzhong was thoughtful.
Most of the human monks who mainly practice demon energy are entrenched in the Dead Island in Shiwanda Mountain. Not many people can practice openly and openly, and they will be investigated by the court. This Leng Chaozong is courageous.
Being among the top ten in the world shows that the court is turning a blind eye.
< br>
Of course, this is related to the current ambiguous attitude of the imperial court towards demon cultivators.
“Dong Dong!”
The door was suddenly knocked.
“It’s the eldest lady.” Meng Niang disappeared.
Jiang Shouzhong opened the door, and it turned out to be Calm, the eldest lady of Tianqing Mansion.
The girl was holding a cactus in her hand. Although her face was still slightly pale, her eyes had regained some energy.
Looking at Jiang Shouzhong, the girl's tone was full of guilt: "Jiang Mo, I'm so sorry, I almost hurt you just now."
"It's okay."
Jiang Shouzhong joked, "As long as you don't ask me for help."
The man used the joke to get vaccinated in advance.
Lest this girl see that he has good cultivation and think about helping her save her father or something, he doesn't have the energy to interfere.
Calmly shook his little head vigorously, "How could that be? I just came to apologize and thank you. If it weren't for you and the mysterious senior in red, I might have been arrested."< br>
Jiang Shouzhong said truthfully: "If she hadn't provoked me, I wouldn't have taken action."
"Anyway, thank you."
The girl smiled slightly, and then Then he asked curiously with his almond-shaped eyes, "Jiang Mo, I remember when we first met, you didn't seem to be a practitioner. How come you became so powerful in the blink of an eye?"
"Just average."
Jiang Shouzhong said politely, "It's far worse than your father."
Calmly and sincerely praised: "My father was not as powerful as you at your age. "
Jiang Shouzhong chuckled twice.
Reject all compliments from pretty girls and keep a clear mind to avoid becoming a tool in a daze.
Maybe it was because she saw that Jiang Shouzhong was relatively distant from her, so she calmly chatted for a few words, and then left with a little resentment. She wanted to say something before leaving, but she didn't say it in the end.
......
After the storm subsided, everything became quiet again.
The ship continues its journey.
During this period, guests continued to go to the owner of the passenger ship, asking to find a nearby waterfront to dock the ship, hoping to escape from this troubled passenger ship as soon as possible, but the owner refused for various reasons.
Coupled with the lingering fog on the water, it was indeed difficult for the ship to dock
Fortunately, there were still six people from the government on the ship, so everyone felt a little at ease in their hearts.
Above the river, the night fog is pouring like light ink. As the night gets darker, it becomes thicker and thicker until it spreads into a vast expanse.
At midnight, when Jiang Shouzhong was sleeping, a rapid and fierce knock on the door suddenly sounded, accompanied by Chu Qi's anxious shout: "Master Jiang! Master Jiang, something bad is going on!"
Jiang Shouzhong stood up and opened the door. Chu Qi's face turned pale and he looked extremely panicked, "Master Jiang, the ship is sinking!"
What! ?
Jiang Shouzhong was surprised.
Following Chu Qi to the deck, Jiang Shouzhong found that the hull of the ship had begun to tilt, and the cabin below had been invaded by the turbulent river water and was in a mess.
The people who were awakened were in a mess.
There were cries and shouts, and some people were using buckets and basins to scoop out water in vain.
Chu Qi looked ugly and said in a deep voice: "The owner of the passenger ship has disappeared. When I found out that the cabin was leaking, I went to call him, but he disappeared. In addition..."
Chu Qi He looked a little panicked, "While I was patrolling, I seemed to see a large figure swinging past the hull of the ship."
A large figure?
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the foggy surroundings and frowned.
Why is this ship so damaged? Could it be that the people trying to stay calm did this deliberately?
Chu Qi heard someone asking for help and ran to help.
While Jiang Shouzhong was thinking, Meng Niang suddenly appeared next to him, with an extremely solemn look on his face, "There is something wrong with this water area. There is a demonic aura. The ship seems to be sinking here on purpose. I will take you away first."
Jiang Shouzhong was startled and was about to nod when he saw the guests crying and despairing in the boat. He hesitated and asked, "Is there any way to save them?"
Meng Niang frowned, Said: "It's too far from the shore. Two or three are okay. I can't save so many people."
At this moment, a flash of emerald green light suddenly appeared.
But I saw the girl standing calmly on the bow of the boat, holding a pot of cactus in both hands. Green light shone, and strands of light overflowed from the basin, intertwining and intertwining to form a cocoon of light, tightly protecting the entire ship.
The ship, which was already in danger and gradually sinking, miraculously rose slowly.
It was just that the girl's face was pale and almost transparent. It was obvious that the spell was over-cast, which caused her physical strength to be exhausted, and her delicate The weak body is crumbling, like a load in the wind, which may be blown into the water at any time.
Jiang Shouzhong was stunned.
Is there such a powerful magic weapon?
Meng Niang said softly: "This girl can't hold on for long, she must-"
Meng Niang suddenly noticed something and looked up.
Through the layers of night fog, the stars seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, intertwining into a strange pattern in the sky. The light flickered like an ancient spell, quietly. Suspended.
“It’s a formation!”
Meng Niang's expression suddenly changed, she grabbed Jiang Shouzhong's arm and prepared to snatch it away.
However, at this moment, the star pattern began to rotate, and in an instant, the waves on the water surface rolled, forming a huge whirlpool.
A powerful suction force burst out from the center of the whirlpool, sucking the ship directly into it.
Soon, the river surface returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
……
When Jiang Shouzhong recovered from the dizziness, he found that he was held tightly in Meng Niang's arms, his cheeks were tightly pressed by a water bag, and he could clearly smell the unique rich aroma.
“Where is this?”
Jiang Shouzhong coughed dryly, stood up straight, and looked around.
Fireflies are dotted around, dancing through the air.
Jiang Shouzhong used this weak and blurred light to discover that they were actually in a large hall.
Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling of familiarity came to my heart.
Jiang Shouzhong thought carefully and suddenly realized that this place was surprisingly similar to the ruined underground palace he encountered at the bottom of Huailan Lake earlier, and the layout was exactly the same.
But in comparison, this hall appears more complete, without the desolation of collapse and decay.
"Strange, why would such an underground palace be built underwater?"
Jiang Shouzhong was puzzled.
Meng Niang looked around and said lightly: "This was built by the previous dynasty."
At this time, Jiang Shouzhong found that except for the two of them, there was no one else around, including the endangered passenger ship. She suddenly felt surprised and said: "Where are the others? Where is the ship?"
Meng Niang shook her head lightly, "I don't know, I had already taken you out of the ship at that time, but you were still involved in it. Or They are dead, or they are in another place."
Meng Niang paused and continued:
"This ship should have been brought to that water area intentionally. There is a formation hidden in that place, and it is difficult to escape after entering. It is obvious that someone intends to kill everyone on the ship, if the little girl did not use the magic weapon at the critical moment, those people would not survive."
Jiang Shouzhong's face was gloomy.
So, there is something wrong with the passenger ship owner.
Remembering the little girl named Calm, Jiang Shouzhong sighed.
The little girl is still very kind and hopes to live.
The main hall is empty, with nothing except stone pillars. If this underground palace is similar to the one under Huailan Lake, then there should be two floors and an altar below.
Jiang Shouzhong found a simple door and pushed it open.
I found a small stone room inside.
The ground is filled with bones, the walls are crisscrossed with sword marks, and there are many boxes scattered around, some are dilapidated, some are half open and half closed.
Judging from the mess in the stone room, it seems that there has been a fight here.
“This underground palace could not have been built by the previous dynasty... to store treasures.”
Looking at the human bones scattered in the stone room, Jiang Shouzhong could already imagine the tragic scenes of these people fighting each other for treasures.
After the fall of every dynasty, there are always legends about some treasures.
Meng Niang nodded lightly, "It depends on the situation, it is indeed the case."
Meng Niang saw a mural, moved lightly, and prepared to go forward to check.
Suddenly, a golden light shot out unexpectedly and hit the woman.
Meng Niang let out a shrill cry, and suddenly flew out of the stone room like a kite with its string cut off, falling heavily. The whole body is wrapped with wisps of black energy, which looks like a snake, which is particularly terrifying.
“Meng Niang!”
Jiang Shouzhong’s expression changed greatly and he hurriedly stepped forward.
I saw Mengniang curled up on the ground, trembling all over, her pain was palpable, her face was twisted, as if she was suffering from the pain of thousands of ants gnawing at her bones.
At the same time, the monster's appearance appeared, and a white snake shadow appeared and disappeared in the interplay of light and shadow.
It looked as if his soul would fly away at any moment.
Jiang Shouzhong was stunned by the situation in front of him and had no idea what was happening.
In desperation, Jiang Shouzhong remembered the death energy on his body and quickly hugged the woman's delicate body tightly. After a long time, Meng Niang stopped shaking, and the blood on her face was almost drained away.
"What's wrong, Meng Niang?"
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the lovely woman in his arms and asked with concern.
Meng Niang's lips turned white, her jade hands grabbed Jiang Shouzhong's arm, and she said weakly: "Go to the place where the golden light just came out. There is something there, take it down..."
Jiang Shouzhong nodded and entered. Stone chamber.
Recalling the place where the golden light just emitted, Jiang Shouzhong walked over and found something similar to a sweet potato embedded in the wall. It was dark and inconspicuous.
Jiang Shouzhong plucked it off hard.
I suddenly felt a refreshing sensation throughout my body.
Jiang Shouzhong came to Mengniang with a sweet potato, and was afraid of hurting the woman, so he wrapped it in clothes.
“No need to block it, the remaining magic power on it has expired.”
Meng Niang said.
Jiang Shouzhong said oh and took out the sweet potatoes.
Meng Niang observed it carefully for a moment and said with a wry smile: "It is the rumored zodiac sign. No wonder it is so powerful. It should have been activated by accidentally touching the mechanism just now."
"Zodiac seal? What is this?" Jiang Shouzhong was confused.
Meng Niang explained: "A powerful magic weapon that can deal with zodiac monsters. If it can be combined with the zodiac chart, its true power can be stimulated. The zodiac chart can absorb the twelve zodiac monsters. You As long as you put a stamp on it, the monster will recognize you as its master."
At this point, Mengniang joked: "If you can stamp it on me, you will be my master. . ”
“It can’t be used now?” Jiang Shouzhong looked confused.
Meng Niang shook her head, "The magic power has expired. Without the zodiac sign to inject magic power into it, it is a useless thing. Unfortunately, I don't know where the zodiac sign went. It is rumored that it is in the Longevity Mountains and Rivers, and I don't know much about it."
Jiang Shou was immediately disappointed.
I thought I had an opportunity and picked up a big treasure, but it turned out to be useless.
Zodiac chart?
You can’t just wait for others to send you the equipment.
