Chapter 83 Junior Brother Follow Me

Ning Mingmei: "So, we are going to the Lian family cemetery?"

Qi Miancheng: "The Lian family cemetery is to the south of the Lian family."

Ning Mingmei: "I mean, are we going to walk there?"

When passing through an archway, Ning Mingmei saw a few servants of the Lian family peeking their heads out.

...This is not called a night visit to the Lian family. It would be better to call it "a college boy did not return to his dormitory at night and angrily walked on the campus road."

Qi Miancheng: "I just thought that Junior Brother has been in seclusion for ten years, and I'm afraid he hasn't seen the moonlight here for a long time."

Ning Mingmei said expressionlessly: "Brother, you are wrong. I have seen moonlight for more than eleven years."

Four years of university and seven years of doctoral study. Is there any graduate student in this world who can return to the dormitory before 11 o'clock at night?

Qi Miancheng said: "Is that so? Junior brother, have you heard of a poem? The bright moon on the sea rises with the tide..."

Ning Mingmei: "The spring river tide reaches the sea level."

Can we go back now? Why are we starting to fill in the blanks for the college entrance examination?

I saw the two of them walking to an open area. Qi Miancheng said: "It's time to take Junior Brother to have a night talk."

“……!”

Ning Mingmei was caught off guard and Qi Miancheng hugged his shoulders.

Then……

Flying together?

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and under the moon there are green tiles, double eaves, and flying eaves and brackets. Two figures, one in black and one in white, with their sleeves fluttering, were walking on the roofs of the houses. Qi Miancheng was an excellent master of Qinggong. He only placed his right hand lightly on Ning Mingmei's shoulder, and his true energy lifted him up, and they flew between the buildings together.

This reminded Ning Mingmei of the martial arts dramas he saw in the store at the school gate when he was a child.

For example, The Legend of Chu Liuxiang.

I have to say, it's a bit romantic.

The two of them lightly glanced over the pavilions and terraces that they saw during the day. Ning Mingmei asked: "What is that waterside pavilion?"

"The residence of the Jindan monk hired by the Lian family school."

"What about the pavilion?"

“Where the elders of the tribe live.”

"Brother," Ning Mingmei said, "you really know the layout of the Lian family like the back of your hand. With this map, it will be very easy for you to hire men in black to assassinate the Lian family."

Qi Miancheng said: "Really? But the Lian family currently doesn't have what I want to seize - they are too weak."

Ning Mingmei raised his eyebrows. He felt that he and Qi Miancheng said this as if they were two villains who had infiltrated the Lian family.

If one of them wasn't so sanctimonious and the other so cold and sarcastic, it would take a good pair of hands for the two of them to join hands in killing and burning people.

Behind the ancestral hall is the cemetery. The further back you go in the cemetery, the more sparsely and carelessly laid out it becomes, sometimes with just a piece of wood stuck on top.

Ning Mingmei: "It can be seen that the way of burying clan members in the world of immortal cultivation is the same as the way of holding a class meeting. The leaders sit in the front, with name tags and mineral water. The professors sit in the back row, and the lecturers sit further back."

System: "Who is the last student to sit?"

Ning Mingmei pushed up his glasses and said, "Stand up."

system:……

System: "Don't taint the world of cultivation with your dirty thoughts. Here, the law of the jungle is fair and square, not just hypocritical."

Ning Mingmei: "It doesn't matter. I will steal the mineral water that the leader didn't drink after the meeting and take it back to distribute to the graduate students in the laboratory as business trip gifts."

system:……

What kind of life do the “graduate students” there live?

Qi Miancheng finally placed Ning Mingmei on a stone slab. Ning Mingmei stood still and said to Qi Miancheng: "Brother, you are really good at Qinggong. Not only do you learn in a pure way, but you also move in a pure way. You have developed morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetically, and labor-wise in an all-round way."

Qi Miancheng smiled: "Junior brother, do you feel comfortable?"

Ning Mingmei: ...

Being stared at by Ning Mingmei's death ray, Qi Miancheng said: "I was worried that Junior Brother would feel dizzy like he did this morning..."

Ning Mingmei: "Brother, how could that be? You are not a donkey."

Qi Miancheng: "Brother, yes, I am not a donkey."

The two people completed the conversation in a hypocritical manner. Qi Miancheng said: "Junior brother, what do you think of this cemetery?"

Ning Mingmei: "Burial is not environmentally friendly."

“What is environmental protection?”

"Environmental protection is derived from the meaning of the six realms of reincarnation." Ning Mingmei, like Qi Miancheng, began to speak in riddles.

The two looked at each other and smiled. Ning Mingmei estimated that no one understood what anyone was saying.

Qi Miancheng said: "That makes sense. Let's look at this... This one looks like it was recently buried and hasn't rotted yet."

Ning Mingmei: …………

"You come to dig graves?" he said.

Qi Miancheng had already waved his hand and turned over a piece of soil: "Junior brother, let me handle this kind of trivial matter."

Ning Mingmei: "...I didn't say I would help you dig."

Qi Miancheng: "Junior brother is beginning to show me his true thoughts more and more. This shows that we are getting closer. Junior brother, I am very happy."

Ning Mingmei felt that the stone slab was very dirty, but luckily he had Qi Miancheng's robe to pad it, which saved him some laundry fees. He watched Qi Miancheng dig a coffin out of the ground.

There is a dead body in the coffin.

Ning Mingmei lowered his head and glanced at the corpse: "...What's wrong with his face?"

"This is the secret technique of the Lian family." Qi Miancheng said, "It uses another person's body as a price to allow the main practitioner to reach the pinnacle. The higher the talent of the auxiliary practitioner and the closer their bloodline is to the main practitioner, the greater the benefit to the main practitioner. At the same time, her own appearance will be completely ruined, and her whole body will fester and die... This corpse looks like it was used as medicine dregs by a Lian family cultivator with too much talent before it died. My mother was the auxiliary practitioner of her brother Lian Zhufeng."

"My mother was more talented back then, but because she was a concubine's daughter, she was used as medicine for my brother. Later, she killed my brother, rebelled against the Lian family, and had nowhere to go. Seeing her hideous appearance, people all regarded her as a cruel and ruthless witch. My mother was hunted down by righteous people and was in dire straits. Fortunately, the Tianyan Sect was attacking Baopu Temple at that time. The Saintess of the Tianyan Sect, Jiang Wu, found her interesting and rescued her."

Jiang Wu is the younger sister of the evil concubine Jiang Heng.

"It's just that my mother couldn't adapt to the righteous path, nor did she agree with the devil's path. She left the devil world alone, and Jiang Wu admired her and didn't stop her. Later, she met my father, fell in love with him, and was designed to be suppressed under Baopu Temple. Someone asked my father what to do if the witch wreaked havoc on the world again? How could he guarantee that my mother would no longer wreak havoc on the world? So my father stabbed himself with a knife and swore a blood oath. From then on, they became husband and wife and lived in harmony. The scandal of the Lian family using secret techniques was made public, and they had to promise the entire cultivation world that they would never use such vicious techniques again." Qi Miancheng said, "This was a stunning and beautiful thing back then."

Ning Mingmei: "I didn't expect that Patriarch Qi is such a romantic person."

"These are all rumors from the outside world." Qi Miancheng said, "But my mother..."

Qi Miancheng paused and said, "Junior brother, if you were my mother, what would you do?"

...Don't want a male mother.

Ning Mingmei: "Enter the Qi family and have a backer. Then, publish the Lian family's skills to the world so that everyone can learn them. At the same time, tell the world that I am so powerful and can dominate the human and demon worlds because of the Lian family's skills."

Qi Miancheng: "I never thought that Junior Brother cares so much about the world and wants everyone to have equal rights to cultivate immortality."

Ning Mingmei: "Before publishing it, I wrote twenty different versions of the Lian family's skills, some with one page less, some with one page more, and distributed them to different tribes and forces, letting them argue endlessly, claiming that theirs was the only correct version. At the same time, I gave them permission to reprint it, muddying the waters a little more, and charged copyright fees."

Qi Miancheng: ...

"Never mind, I'm just saying." Ning Mingmei raised his feet casually, "If your mother is very happy after marriage, she naturally won't have to worry about the Lian family anymore. Senior brother, I'm sorry for your loss."

When Ning Mingmei said this, he looked at him with his eyes, his expression seemed sincere, but in fact he was absent-minded.

Qi Miancheng looked at him and thought, how could Ning Mingmei really pretend to be good when there was no benefit?

Whether it was when I asked him for land at the beginning, or when I asked him for furniture later. Ning Mingmei kept calling Qi Miancheng "Senior Brother" and saying all those high-sounding words, pretending to be extremely concerned about the greater good in front of everyone. Even though Fang Wuyu came to Qi Miancheng many times for this, he couldn't do anything about him.

There are too many people in the world who flatter others and want to gain benefits. Qi Miancheng, as the young master of the Qi family since childhood, has seen many people like this.

But Ning Mingmei is different from them.

There is no desire in Ning Mingmei's eyes.

He stood there indifferently. Every word and every action he took could bring him the greatest benefit, but his eyes never showed any excitement when he got them, as if it was all a matter of course. In fact, when he looked at them, there was even a hint of mockery in his eyes - he didn't know whether it was towards these things that could be obtained easily, or towards this world.

What kind of person is Ning Mingmei now?

How can his indestructible mask be broken?

It has to be said that Qi Miancheng became even more curious about this.

not to mention……

"That's exactly what the storybook says, a talented scholar and a beautiful woman, and they lived happily ever after." Qi Miancheng said, "Unfortunately, that kind of skill still changed my mother's physique... and mine. It made me born with certain deficiencies, and also caused my mother to be bedridden and die early."

Ning Mingmei: "What kind of shortcomings do you have, Senior Brother?"

Qi Miancheng used the tip of his sword to take a little tissue from the corpse and put it into a small box: "It's nothing. I have found a way to suppress it and a solution."

The last sentence he said was full of meaning, as profound as the hand he had gently placed on Ning Mingmei's shoulder from the eaves just now.

Ning Mingmei frowned: "What kind of method is it?"

Qi Miancheng looked at Ning Mingmei and smiled: "Junior brother, do you really want to know?"

Ning Mingmei looked at him: "Yeah."

Qi Miancheng said: "It's okay, you will know later."

System: "Actually, you already know it."

Ning Mingmei had only one response to this: "So you see, I didn't start it first. It was this guy who hinted at me and actively seduced me to be his academic Daji."

The principal harassed the professor. How could such a lewd thing happen in this world?

But there was one thing Ning Mingmei didn't quite understand. He looked at Qi Miancheng's back as he took out the box.

If he remembered correctly, the Sword Immortal was over three hundred years old now. Assuming that a cultivator reaches adulthood at the age of 180, he should have been an adult for at least 120 years now.

For a full one hundred and twenty years, Qi Miancheng had not touched the former sword immortal even once, leaving him sitting on the bench at Piaomiao Peak with peace of mind. So why was it that when it was Ning Mingmei's turn, he began to test him in various ways?

It's impossible that Qi Miancheng was a gentleman before, but now he is not after meeting him, right?

Ning Mingmei: “It’s hard to say.”

The system looked at him sympathetically: "I understand. Don't you even know what XX is?"

Ning Mingmei pushed his glasses and said, "pXrnhub? I know. When I asked a student to go on stage to make a presentation, he forgot that the last page of Safari was pXrnhub, so he displayed the picture directly in front of me. Oh, do you know what pXrnhub is? It's a website that plays XXX."

system:……

Ning Mingmei: "During those weeks, the lab's data usage was very high. I checked and found that someone was using the lab's WiFi to access pXrnhub. So when I saw that scene, I laughed out loud."

...How could someone say such perverted words in such calm words? .

Ning Mingmei: "Pervert? To be honest, I have no interest in this kind of activity. The expression of that student that day made me excited."

System: "...Which city is your laboratory located in?"

Ning Mingmei: "In the year after that, the student's actions and attitude were very diligent. He never fell in love again, and his academic efficiency also greatly improved. In this regard, I am very satisfied."

...What a pervert!

The system is hard to describe. Ning Mingmei said to Qi Miancheng, "Brother, you came to the Lian family to dig graves. Does the Qi family know?"

How could a young master of the Qi family come to his mother's ancestral home to dig graves?

Qi Miancheng smiled when he heard this.

"If my father knew about this, he would probably say that I don't look like a child of the Qi family." Qi Miancheng said calmly, "But it doesn't matter. Decades have passed, and the thief in the Lian family is still determined and has started to use this technique to harm people again. This little evidence is enough to report to the elders of the Qi family. Junior brother, after we're done, shall we go back to Qingji Sect?"

Ning Mingmei: ...

Qi Miancheng came here for all this time just to dig up this little evidence?

Ning Mingmei went back with Qi Miancheng feeling very dissatisfied. It was late at night and the two parted ways. Ning Mingmei took a few steps and suddenly seemed to realize something. He held his breath and chased after him outside.

really.

After sending Ning Mingmei back, Qi Miancheng changed his clothes and went somewhere.

Fortunately, Ning Mingmei had practiced Qinggong well enough, so this time, he was able to keep up with Qi Miancheng's movements. He followed Qi Miancheng until Qi Miancheng arrived at the Lian family's ancestral hall.

He walked in.

Ning Mingmei also followed him in. The Lian family was indeed a prominent family in the past; rows of tablets sparkled brightly under the candlelight. Ning Mingmei looked at Qi Miancheng standing somewhere in the ancestral hall. Just a blink of an eye...

Qi Miancheng is missing!

Ning Mingmei walked around the ancestral hall several times but saw nothing. He walked around and around and finally ended up in a yard at the back. A little kid was practicing there, with a look of impatience on his face. Standing next to him were several immortal masters and the head of the Lian family.

They seemed to be unaware of Qi Miancheng's intrusion.

"...Another scumbag died."

"Have we improved this technique too much? Moreover, we also used that..."

"But if we don't do this, how can we revive the thousand-year glory of the Lian family? Those medicinal dregs will die if they die."

"It's all because of that kid running away. He has good talent. If we use him to practice, he can last for a while."

The child who was practicing with the other kid was shaking all over. He tried to escape several times.

The child who was practicing was Lian Zhao. He was looking to the side with an impatient look.

"…What are you talking about? If that thing runs away, just catch it back." Lian Zhao said, and then he said to the sparring child, "Are you scared?"

The child nodded.

Lian Zhao said, "Then go."

The child ran away as if he had been pardoned. But before he could run a few steps, Lian Zhao grabbed his head.

Then……

"ah!"

There were screams that did not sound like human voices, and it was obvious that the victim was in great pain at the moment. Several adults were shocked: "Why are you sucking him dry now?"

"I won't be able to use it in the future anyway, it's boring." Lian Zhao said, "In that case, why not use it as a temporary medicine bag and quickly improve my strength - won't that Qi guy want to see me tomorrow?"

Ning Mingmei was standing in the dark and also saw Lian Zhao's expression change. That spell was terrifying. Lian Zhao's arms seemed to have turned into countless twisting tentacles in an instant. The dark tentacles reached into the child's facial orifices and sucked all his essence in an instant.

Lian Zhao's face turned rosy. Ning Mingmei felt it from a distance and found that the child's strength seemed to have improved a lot.

...Is this the Lian family's martial arts technique?

Why does it look so much like evil kung fu?

The child's body fell limply to the ground, his skull shattered. Black colonies-like things appeared on the surface. A servant dragged him away. Lian Zhao wiped his hands, as if he was used to it.

"Forget it, just fool around until tomorrow..."

Ning Mingmei raised his eyebrows. Somehow, he felt that the aura of Lian Zhao was a little familiar.

But I can't tell what kind of breath it is.

But according to their narration, the technique that Lian Zhao practiced was the latest improvement… In other words, the techniques before were not as crazy as the ones now?

What prompted their improvement?

He turned and tried to leave. But before he could get a few feet away, a hand covered his lips.

Someone behind him laughed softly and said:

"Junior brother, what do you want to do by following me?"
