Xiao Si began to reflect on his previous words and deeds, but after reflecting for a long time, he still found out with grievance that he had not threatened Meng Changjin at all.
Besides, would he dare to threaten me? Meng Changjin's expression softened slightly when she heard Xiao Si's voice in her mind, which was even more shocked and aggrieved than hers.
Could it be that she misunderstood Xiao Si? "We agreed at the beginning that I would only be responsible for fulfilling the client's long-cherished wish, but now you are asking me to borrow energy points, and the key is that you may not be able to pay it back. How dare I give it to you? Am I not afraid of throwing hot buns at dogs and never getting them back?" Meng Changjin continued to drink tea, while communicating with Xiao Si in his mind.
"I'm a fish, not a dog!" Xiao Si retorted almost immediately.
Meng Changjin: ...
She believed Xiao Si's previous words, wasn't that a threat to her? She was just a stupid fish! Couldn't she tell that she was just making an analogy? !
Xiao Si seemed to have realized what was happening, and said in an embarrassed tone, "You're worried that I won't be able to pay it back. Don't worry, I'll borrow it, but as long as you complete the overall energy value, our cooperation is complete."
Meng Changjin fell silent again and did not make any choice for a while.
"What if you lie to me?" Meng Changjin asked slowly.
What if Xiao Si says nicely now that the borrowed energy value will not affect the completion of the cooperation, but then comes up with other excuses?
For example, this time, it was agreed at the beginning that she was only responsible for fulfilling the client's long-cherished wish, but it did not say that she had to borrow energy points.
"Impossible, we signed a contract, and I'm not the kind of fish that has no sense of contract!" Xiao Si said affirmatively.
Meng Changjin couldn't help laughing. It was interesting that this fish understood the spirit of contract.
"Okay, then I can lend it to you. If you lie to me, I will eat fish head stew." Meng Changjin smiled and his tone was gentle and kind.
The little fish that was temporarily staying in Meng Changjin's sea of consciousness stopped moving its tail, and its body, which was already cold to begin with, seemed to be even colder.
He believed it. If he dared to lie to Meng Changjin, he would really be cooked with fish head by Meng Changjin.
And he was also sure that Meng Changjin could definitely do it.
For a moment, Xiao Si wanted to cry.
Fish are so cute, how crazy must one be to eat them? Too cruel!
But on second thought, Xiao Si felt that he was really worrying too much. He didn't intend to deceive Meng Changjin, so of course he wouldn't be eaten! Although he thought so, Xiao Si still felt a little guilty.
What he said before was a mixture of truth and lies. It doesn't count as a lie, right? He also told the truth, so it doesn't count, right? In fact, even without borrowing energy points, he can still find other clients.
But this requires him to swim very far, which is very tiring and will tire the fish to death.
If he borrowed energy, he wouldn't have to swim around...
Never mind, I’ve already borrowed it. I’ll talk about the future later.
But he had to keep his mouth shut and never let Meng Changjin find out that he was cheating.
If Meng Changjin could understand Xiao Si's thoughts directly, he would definitely hold his forehead and then really consider whether to eat the fish head stew.
This fish is not only stupid, but also lazy! Xiao Si, who had borrowed the energy value, stopped talking. Before Meng Changjin had time to leisurely taste the tea, she found that the guy who made her worry was here again.
As for who it is, there is no one else to think of except Wu Shaoqi.
"Come in if you're here. It's not proper for you to be sneaking around outside the yard." Meng Changjin's voice came from the yard and reached the ears of Wu Shaoqi who was walking back and forth outside the yard.
Hearing Meng Changjin's voice, Wu Shaoqi, who was walking back and forth outside, stopped.
The next moment, Wu Shaoqi pushed open the gate of the courtyard and stuck his head in.
The head that came in looked around the courtyard, and when he saw Meng Changjin, he showed a bright smile with eight teeth.
Meng Changjin rolled his eyes at him, knowing that something bad was going to happen.
"Hello, Master. You look like an immortal today." Wu Shaoqi walked in and raised his thumbs with both hands at the same time, praising him a little too hard.
Meng Changjin looked at him with a half-smile, and said lightly: "So, your teacher didn't have the appearance of an immortal before?"
Wu Shaoqi: ...
He couldn't respond to this. Wasn't this like flattering someone who hit the horse's leg? "Okay, just tell me if you have something to say." Meng Changjin put down his teacup and looked at Wu Shaoqi.
"Ah, Master, have you noticed that the sun is particularly strong today, which is very suitable for practicing sword?" Wu Shaoqi looked up at the sky and said seriously.
Meng Changjin looked up, but couldn't see clearly through the treetops, but it was true that the weather was good today.
But what does this have to do with Wu Shaoqi? Practicing sword? If you want to practice, go ahead and practice.
"Want to practice sword?" Meng Changjin asked with a frown.
"You don't have to practice sword, you can practice other things too." Wu Shaoqi said with a smile.
Meng Changjin: ...
She was a little confused about what Wu Shaoqi was going to do.
"If you want to practice combat skills, you can go to the library to find the ones that suit you, and then ask me if you don't understand." Meng Changjin felt that Wu Shaoqi probably wanted to learn some methods to fight the enemy, and she agreed with this.
If you practice hard but don't know how to use your strength, it is normal to be beaten by others of higher levels.
The martial arts system of a cultivator who knows combat skills and a cultivator who does not know combat skills is not measured by the same standard.
"Disciple understands." Wu Shaoqi nodded, and then said with a playful smile: "But if disciples practice combat skills, they will have no time to learn alchemy, hehe."
Meng Changjin now finally understood why Wu Shaoqi was acting sneaky and flattering him blindly.
It seems that he doesn't want to learn alchemy anymore. He is afraid of getting angry, so he looks like this.
Meng Changjin picked up the teapot and added more tea for himself. He took a sip and then looked at Wu Shaoqi: "You promised to learn alchemy. Now it seems that you don't want to learn it anymore?"
Wu Shaoqi waved his hands quickly, "No, no, it's just that the sect ranking competition is coming up soon, and as a member of the Wanhuang Sect, I naturally have to fight. Now I'm already in the middle of the third level, and I might be in the fifth or sixth level before the competition next year. If I lose because I don't know how to fight, it will be a disgrace to the Wanhuang Sect."
Meng Changjin understood. What he meant was that it was not that he didn't want to learn, but that he didn't have the time.
But Meng Changjin didn't believe him, he just didn't want to learn anymore! Wu Shaoqi was also feeling miserable. Meng Changjin had given him a few books before, and he thought he only needed to memorize the contents of these books. But when he took them back and opened them, he realized that these books were not contents at all, but catalogs.
One catalogue corresponds to one book, and there are several catalogues alone, so you can imagine how many there are.
