Chapter 174 Sincerity



At dusk, in Minghe Academy, Lin Tongxi and others met the head of the academy, Nangong Pu.

"Sir, we apologize for not welcoming you here in person, as you have come from afar." Nangong Pu spoke first, and then had someone serve tea.

"This tea is a variety produced in Wutong Mountain. Please taste it."

"Master Zhang wrote to me the day before yesterday, asking me to take care of several of you."

"The guest rooms are ready. A disciple from our academy will lead you there later."

Nangong Pu seems to have a very easy-going personality, which is no wonder why he became good friends with Zhang Guangxin.

There is a saying that goes, you will attract the kind of friends that you are.

Lin Tongxi felt that this made a lot of sense, just like these two important figures in Lingzhou.

Perhaps it was because life in Lingzhou was relatively peaceful, Lin Tongxi felt that they were more or less free from conspiracy.

Speaking of conspiracy... Lin Tongxi couldn't help but think of Lei Liquan and Lu Fengyu from Guangyang County. They both had dark hearts.

The latter, in particular, is the ultimate hypocrite.

Smiling in front of others but stabbed in the back, this also made Lin Tongxi and Chen Yunxuan learn a lot of lessons.

But there is no point thinking about these things now. The most important thing is to go and meet Mr. Qingli.

"Master Nangong, do you know where Mr. Qingli lives? We want to meet him." Lin Tongxi stated his purpose straight away.

Hearing Mr. Qingli's name, Nangong Pu's expression suddenly became serious, and he asked, "Oh? Why do you want to see Qingli?"

"Master Nangong, we have no ill intentions. We just heard a lot about Mr. Qingli's deeds in the city and were curious, so we came to visit him." Shen Xingyao saved the situation for Lin Tongxi.

Nangong Pu's expression changed so suddenly that Lin Tongxi was quite frightened. It seemed that Mr. Qingli had a high status in Minghe Academy.

"So that's how it is. Before, many people from the mountain came to visit Qingli because of his fame, which caused some unpleasantness, so we had to temporarily prohibit outsiders from entering." Sect Master Nangong then introduced Mr. Qingli.

"Qingli's personality is too eccentric, but it's not her fault...if you want to blame someone, blame them...ahem, when people get old, they always like to reminisce about the past."

"Most of the disciples in this academy are warm and hospitable, but Qingli is an exception."

"He has set a rule that only those who pass his test can agree to meet him."

"This kind of test is for outsiders, but it's not easy for people in the academy to see him."

"He has always lived in Yuliu Pavilion and rarely goes out."

"Even for the old Taoist priest, it is extremely difficult to see him."

Nangong Pu continued to introduce and explain the unpleasantness that Sou had just mentioned.

It turned out that many officials and children of noble families had heard about Mr. Qingli's deeds and wanted to ask him to come out of retirement to help.

But let alone coming out to help, the other party didn't even give them a chance to meet.

It’s easy to meet someone, just pass the test.

Unfortunately, almost no one passed the test.

Of course, this is also related to their impetuous utilitarianism and lack of sincerity in meeting each other.

Either they don't take the test seriously, or they try to force the other party out through other means.

There are a few who are sincere, but they lack the talent and intelligence to pass.

Mr. Qingli had no choice but to conclude that they were not destined to be together and refused to meet.

But compared to those who were insincere, Mr. Qingli still gave these sincere people some face and sent them a handwritten letter.

"If you're interested in visiting, you might try tomorrow."

"It's getting late, I'll ask someone to take you to dinner first."

After chatting with Nangong Pu, the disciples of Minghe Academy led Lin Tongxi and others to the dining hall.

After dinner, Lin Tongxi was taken to the guest room.

Taking advantage of this moment of being alone, Lin Tongxi chose to use [remote communication] to exchange information with Chen Yunxuan.

After the routine report on today's situation, the two talked about what happened today.

"Mr. Qingli... It seems he is indeed a talented person." After hearing about Qingli's deeds, Chen Yunxuan nodded and became curious about this person.

"To be honest, I'm planning to ask Mr. Qingli to come out of retirement," Lin Tongxi confided his thoughts. "With his help, our ambition to help those in troubled times might actually be realized."

Lin Tongxi is a modern man and is well aware that science and technology are the primary productive forces.

Putting aside his intelligence, Qingli's ability to invent and create is off the charts.

In terms of technology, Lin Tongxi's previous strategy was to fund the development of Lumutong.

It’s a pity that Lumutong has a lot of enthusiasm but lacks the talent for invention.

If what we heard in the city today is true, then Qingli might be the person Lin Tongxi is looking for.

With him, maybe Chen Yunxuan's power can be taken to a higher level!

Early in the morning, the six people came to Yuliu Pavilion where Mr. Qingli lived.

According to other disciples, although Mr. Qingli lived in Yuliu Pavilion, the nearby land also belonged to Mr. Qingli privately and was named Zhenxia Peak.

If the nearby land is included... then Mr. Qingli's range of activities can be said to be very large.

According to Shen Xingyao's description, even the head of Chengtian Academy would not occupy such a large area.

This treatment can be said to be extremely generous.

"Stop, this is Yuliu Pavilion. No one is allowed to enter without the permission of the master, including the master!" A boy stopped the six people.

"Junior Brother Yu Lei... please be polite when you speak. These are the master's distinguished guests." The disciple scratched his head. He knew the boy's temper.
