Chapter 1516: Cultivator, Jing Jining
Then they looked back and saw the person coming. Since Gu Ning did not move, they did not move either.
Although the cultivators' night vision was good, it was not as good as Gu Ning's. So when he was only five or six meters away from Gu Ning, he could see Gu Ning's appearance clearly. He was stunned for a moment, and then blurted out: "It's you?"
Yes, the cultivator recognized Gu Ning. He was one of the people involved in the car accident on Airport Road in Hai City. Moreover, he investigated them afterwards, so he knew Gu Ning's identity and abilities even better.
He also admired this little girl very much. At such a young age, she was worth tens of billions and had great skills. Her status and connections were also extraordinary.
The granddaughter of the Tang family in Hai City and the girlfriend of the eldest son of the Leng family in Beijing.
However, when thinking of Leng Shaoting, the eldest grandson of the Leng family, the cultivator felt a strange feeling in his heart...
Originally, he suspected Leng Shaoting regarding the spiritual power matter, but now, he felt that Gu Ning was also very suspicious, because the coincidence of the spiritual energy and the disappearance of the Yin energy together might be inevitable.
Of course, it is also possible that it was a coincidence, because it is also possible that the evil creature sensed his presence and ran away.
Gu Ning was not surprised that the cultivator knew her, because he saw her during the car accident. Even if he didn't see her at the time, with her current fame, many people knew her. So when someone Gu Ning didn't know knew her, she would subconsciously think that the other person knew her on the Internet.
Anyway, she wouldn't be surprised if a stranger knew her.
However, Gu Ning naturally pretended not to know the other party, and even expressed a little surprise that the other party knew him: "Sir, you know me?"
"Yes! I saw it on the Internet. You are Gu Ning. You are very capable at a young age and have a net worth of billions. It is really admirable!" said the cultivator, praising Gu Ning, but this was from the heart.
"Thank you for the compliment," Gu Ning thanked him. Since the other party was praising her sincerely, she naturally thanked him sincerely as well.
"By the way, what are you doing here so late? Don't you know that there have been many accidents here before, it's very strange?" the man asked, his tone seemed concerned, but actually it was a test.
Of course, he also knew that he might not be able to find out the truth because the other party was not a simple person, so they would not tell him the purpose of their coming here.
Gu Ning naturally knew that the other party was testing him, and he didn't intend to tell the truth, but he could still half-truthfully say, "I've heard about it. That's why I came to see if it's really weird. Because I've taken a fancy to this piece of land and want to buy it to build a hotel, but I heard that this place is weird and strange, saying that an ancient tomb was dug up here, so there are ghosts haunting here. I don't believe in the existence of ghosts, but I'm also curious! And I also want to know what's going on. If it's really weird and strange, then I'll give up this piece of land. If it's not, it's just a rumor, then I'll buy it while no one wants it and the price is cheap. Although I don't believe in ghosts, just in case, I looked up some information about ghosts. The book says that ghosts come out at night, so we came to take a look at night."
Although Gu Ning knew that the other party was testing him, he would not be rude to the other party because he did not feel any hostility or malice from the other party.
Gu Ning looked sincere and spoke in a reasonable manner, so the cultivators could not detect any signs of lying.
Moreover, the cultivators knew that Gu Ning was a businessman, so it was normal for him to buy the land and build a hotel.
Of course, it wasn't like she believed Gu Ning completely, maybe it was half true and half false! Gu Ning also knew that the other party couldn't completely believe her, as long as they tacitly didn't point it out, it would be fine.
"Oh! Did you see it?" the man asked.
"No, if we had, we might have been scared away." Gu Ning said with a regretful look, and then asked the man, "Then why are you here so late at night?"
"Oh! I also heard that this place is weird and strange, so I wanted to come and take a look." The man said, "To be honest, Miss Gu, my grandfather was once a member of the Maoshan Sect and learned some Maoshan techniques. I have been influenced by him to some extent and understand a little bit. However, I have never seen any ghosts since I was a child, so I don't believe what my grandfather said is true. It happened that I heard about the weird things at the construction site these days, so I waited for this night to come and find out what it is."
Although the man did not hide anything, all his words were lies. He only said them to explain the purpose of his appearance here. Otherwise, if he appeared here in the middle of the night and said there was no problem, no one would believe him!
Even though the man was lying, Gu Ning would not expose it and pretended to believe it: "I see! I have seen this Maoshan Sect's Maoshan technique in TV dramas and movies before! I never thought it actually exists in reality!"
"It does exist, but it has long been in decline. Now it's just an empty shell, and there's no one with real ability here." The man said with some regret.
Although he lied to Gu Ning when he said that his grandfather was from the Maoshan Sect, his regret was genuine because he did have a connection with the Maoshan Sect.
Now, the ancient sects have long since fallen into decline, and there are no truly capable people left.
Even the Shaolin Temple is filled with laymen with shaved heads, who eat meat and drink wine, and treat the Shaolin Temple as a commercial place to make money.
"I see!" Gu Ning understood, and then asked, "By the way, I still don't know what to call you, sir!"
Normally, Gu Ning doesn't care about other people's surnames or names, but who can blame him for being from the world of cultivation? Because Gu Ning wants to explore the world of cultivation and understand it, he will naturally be very enthusiastic about people from the world of cultivation. Otherwise, how can he find out the identity and whereabouts of Shao Ting's mother? "My last name is Jing, Jing as in Jing Ke, and my name is Jining, Ji as in Continue, and Ning as in Ningjing. Speaking of which, I have some fate with Miss Gu, because both my names have the word Ning, so if Miss Gu doesn't mind, you can call me Uncle Jing, just as if we are friends." Jing Jining said, looking very happy to be friends with Gu Ning.
Jing Jining wants to get closer to Gu Ning. Although he has the purpose of finding out whether the other party is related to spiritual energy, he also admires Gu Ning from the bottom of his heart.
Such a talented girl is really rare! Even Dongfang Ziyu, who is known as the most talented woman in the cultivation world, is not as good as Gu Ning.
