Chapter 106 Recursive Operations
When Ning Mingmei arrived at Changchun Peak, it was very lively.
The competition between Qingji Sect and Yanyun Tower lasted for three days, and both sides were filled with anger. As the host, Qingji Sect was determined to win first place in the competition as its leader was promoted.
Yanyunlou lost its home game seven years ago, and its determination to win this time is just as strong.
As soon as Ning Mingmei entered, he heard a quarrel inside the hall about Pipa Xiu. The elders behind Pipa Xiu argued that Pipa Xiu was only concerned about the sect. Every man has his own reasons and every woman has her own reasons. Lu Mengqing sat between several elders, rubbing his temples. It was obvious that his head was hurting from the noise again.
"...When has our Yanyun Tower, a prestigious and righteous sect, ever needed to resort to such despicable means?"
In the end, the quarrel ended with Biwa Xiu being punished. Everyone went out, leaving Lu Mengqing in the hall with a headache. The personal disciple brought her a cup of hot platinum.
Lu Mengqing took a sip and felt a little better.
"Master, thank you for your hard work." said the close disciple.
Lu Mengqing just smiled tiredly in response.
Hard? How can it not be hard? Now that Yanyun Tower has fallen into Lu Mengqing's hands, it must be developed and expanded, and Lu Mengqing knows this very well.
Lu Mengqing's position as the sect leader was not so legitimate.
Hundreds of years ago, the owner of Yanyun Tower at that time did not initially favor Lu Mengqing, a zither cultivator from Si Island, but instead regarded a bell cultivator from Jin Island as his successor.
It can be said that Lu Mengqing's position as the owner of the building was snatched away by her. A hundred years after she ascended the throne, there were often discussions within the sect.
To this day, Yanyun Tower is not a solid block.
Only by developing Yanyun Tower and letting the whole world know that Yanyun Tower is now the number one sect in the fairy world, those dissidents within the sect will be suppressed and those old guys will admit defeat with conviction.
Therefore, Lu Mengqing must win.
"Master, don't worry. We have the upper hand in the competition now," said the disciple.
Lu Mengqing's brows did not relax because of this.
Ning Mingmei came in at this time.
Ning Mingmei wore a light blue outer garment and a snow-white inner garment. She looked pure and light, like a gentle breeze blowing across the bright moon.
He smiled and said, "Master Lu."
Lu Mengqing's affection for Ning Mingmei is like a college student who cuts off carbs during final week's desire for grape milk cap. She steeled herself to respond.
And Ning Mingmei always brings good things. Whether it's old platinum or Sprite. Whenever Lu Mengqing sees Ning Mingmei, he feels the joy of rising blood sugar.
Ning Mingmei introduced the Feisi Book and Lianshu to Lu Mengqing as if he had been to the heads of the various peaks of the Qingji Sect. Sure enough, Lu Mengqing was also interested in this like the other peak masters of Qingji Sect, and quickly registered her own account.
Another big V joined Feisibu, but Ning Mingmei did not leave immediately. He chatted with Lu Mengqing about family matters for a while, and after a long while, he mentioned casually, "I see that you all have had a hard time in the recent competition."
Lu Mengqing's business sense alerted up immediately, and he smiled: "Master Ning must have been extremely well prepared. I heard that there is competition among the twelve peaks of Qingji Sect. I wonder what kind of ranking Master Ning is aiming for this time?"
Ning Mingmei shook his head: "The competition is certainly important, but to me, it's just a requirement of the sect."
Lu Mengqing said: "Oh? Master Ning Feng has no intention of competing for victory?"
The voice sounded clearly unconvinced.
Ning Mingmei said, "What if I win? What if I lose? Come to think of it, I just came from Senior Brother Qi's place."
Who else could be Ning Mingmei’s senior brother Qi? Of course, it could be the leader Qi of the Qingji Sect. Lu Mengqing didn't expect Ning Mingmei to be so straightforward, and was caught off guard for a moment.
And a little embarrassing.
After all, in terms of love and ethics, Yanyunlou is not the one that can occupy the high ground of public opinion in today's incident.
"When I arrived at my senior brother's place, Junior Brother Chen was crying. Look, a martial arts competition has become so ugly. There are so many onlookers today, people from Minghua Valley, Yinbing Pavilion, and Baopu Temple. It's really a joke." Ning Mingmei shook his head.
Ning Mingmei's words did not contain any intention to blame Yanyun Tower or to take sides with anyone. On the contrary, he was quite calm and objective, with a bird's-eye view, loving all the sects, and considering the interests of the two number one sects in the world at the same time.
——At least that’s what Lu Mengqing heard.
Indeed, this competition was originally used to bring glory to the two families. It sounds really dishonorable to fight so ugly.
——But what if we win in the end?
The thought of wavering only flashed through Lu Mengqing's mind for a moment. Soon, she took a sip of the old platinum and asked inconspicuously, "What does Master Ning Feng think?"
"It doesn't matter if we lose the competition. What matters most is that those third-ranked sects in the world make a fool of themselves." Ning Mingmei said, "Besides, a competition is just like a passing visitor on the journey of life. How can it be the destination for my disciples to reach?"
This sentence made Lu Mengqing's heart skip a beat.
"But to be honest, it doesn't matter if those third-rank sects in the world see it. Our sect is already recognized as the best in the world, so it's hard for them to even compare to us." Ning Mingmei said, but as if unintentionally, he mentioned, "Speaking of which, the Fei Si Book praised by Lu Louzhu was made with the help of Yinbing Pavilion disciples."
Lu Mengqing: "How could it be..."
Isn’t there the symbol of the Great Emperor of the Qing Dynasty in this Fei Si Book?
"Yinbing Pavilion admired the reputation of the world's number one sect, and sent two disciples to Piaomiao Peak to study. I guided them to make something like this." Ning Mingmei took a sip of tea, "I praised them with a sentence 'worthy of being the world's third largest sect', and they were very happy about it. This Feisi Book has provided so many conveniences for Qingji Sect's disciples... If it can be promoted to the entire cultivation world in the future, it will surely be of great benefit."
There was something behind these words, and Lu Mengqing had sat up straight without realizing it.
"We killed each other in the sect competition. Isn't the essential purpose of this 'number one in the world' to make the sect famous and gain more benefits?"
"But can we only gain benefits by being the 'number one in the world'?"
"You know, the third place in the world includes Yinbing Pavilion, Minghua Valley, Qiushi Sect, and Baopu Temple. They are convinced by our overwhelming strength, but I have never seen them fight to the death for the title of the third place in the world."
"Sometimes I wonder, Qingji Sect and Yanyun Tower are both number one in the world, why do they have to fight against each other?"
If both of us are number one in the world, we should work together to defeat number three.
Make money and gain fame from being the third best in the world!
As an authority, why bother yourself with so much effort?
There are four people who are third in the world. We will recognize whoever makes us earn more as the third. In this way, the four companies will compete with each other for our recognition, and we will reap the benefits. Isn't it a win-win situation?
The hidden meaning in these words left Lu Mengqing speechless for a moment.
This feeling...
It's like a traveler whose thoughts are imprisoned walking in a foggy woods, who sees a door appear in the dark forest when he is about to get lost.
The door was slightly ajar, and a faint light leaked out from inside.
But, it was an evil green light.
Ning Mingmei looked at Lu Mengqing's expression and knew that this kind of art was still a bit too advanced for Lu Mengqing, who was determined to be the best in the world and was competitive.
At this moment, Lu Mengqing still wants to be the best in the world.
Moreover, she was a little suspicious of Ning Mingmei's motives for saying this. In her eyes, Ning Mingmei might have come to her to say these words to shake the morale of the troops in order to win the competition.
Lu Mengqing finally said: "...Then I look forward to Piaomiao Peak's performance in the competition."
What is a win-win situation? What is Piaomiao Peak going to do? How are the results of the competition at Piaomiao Peak? How does Ning Mingmei plan to implement this plan?
Ning Mingmei knew that if he wanted to tie Yanyun Tower to his boat, he had to come up with something real.
However, Ning Mingmei knew that plans cannot be accomplished overnight. He chatted with Lu Mengqing for a few more words and left leisurely.
The pale blue figure left. Lu Mengqing thought for a moment and called his disciple in.
"When is the next competition at Piao Miao Peak?"
Disciple: “This…”
There are so many competitions, who can remember them all?
The disciple went out and headed to Mingwu Peak to look at the schedule. Lu Mengqing took a sip of Old Platinum, and then he heard a "ding" sound from the bamboo slips next to him.
...The magic of Fei Si Book is still attached to the bamboo slips, but I forgot to turn it off.
Lu Mengqing glanced at it casually.
"Tomorrow's Mingwu Peak race schedule is as follows:"
"Jia Zi Field No. 1: Jiang Chennian, a late-stage foundation-building cultivator from Yuting Peak of Qingji Sect, versus Ming Ruyue, a late-stage foundation-building cultivator from Jindao Le of Yanyun Tower."
"Jia Zi Field No. 2: ..."
"Bingzi Field No. 5: Pei Shiqi, a sword cultivator from Piaomiao Peak in the early stage of foundation building of Qingji Sect, versus Zhudao Lexiu from the middle stage of foundation building of Yanyun Tower."
The content is clear, concise and powerful.
The publishing account is "Qing Ji Zong Ming Wu Feng Official V".
Lu Mengqing:?
Lu Mengqing picked up the bamboo slips and carefully read them from top to bottom.
Under the article, Ning Mingmei V was on the hot list of reposts.
@宁明魅V: Lao Shiqi will be competing tomorrow, please support him.
There were several other people who forwarded Ning Mingmei’s post.
@向形形V: Hope everyone is aware//@白若如V: Support my junior fellow apprentice~//@齐免成V: Repost非思簿//@宁明魅V: Old Seventeen will be competing tomorrow, please support him.
@尹希声V: Looking forward to it//@宁明魅V: Lao Shiqi will be competing tomorrow, please support him.
Lu Mengqing:? ?
There are four members of Qingji Sect F5 gathered together at this moment (except Fang Wuyu). The scene was so magical that she could hardly believe it.
After a few days, some core disciples from Feisi Book had already moved in. Lu Mengqing saw some Qingji Sect disciples calling their friends, organizing support or arranging itineraries under this document.
Wait.
No wonder when Yanyun Tower and Qingji Sect were competing these days, the people from Qingji Sect always showed up in such large numbers and shouted slogans in unison. Unlike the disciples of Yanyun Tower, except for the few who attract a lot of attention, the others come in scattered groups.
As a result, the morale of the disciples in Yanyun Tower was a little low.
The secret of Qingji Sect’s support turns out to be here!
If Lu Mengqing had only regarded the Fei Si Book as a novelty before, now, as the owner of Yanyun Tower, Lu Mengqing had already felt the potential and importance of this thing.
Registered users of FeisiBook can invite new users to join according to their levels. As the owner of Yanyun Tower, Lu Mengqing's user level is second only to the administrator. She pondered for a moment, called another disciple, and asked him to bring several elders from Yanyun Tower over.
"Take their bamboo slips with you." Lu Mengqing instructed, "Also, bring those disciples with you as well."
In the field of public opinion, whoever enters first will win.
We can’t let the disciples of Qingji Sect occupy the entire Feisi Book’s public opinion field! We cannot allow the disciples of Yanyun Tower to be silenced in the Feisi Book.
We must make Yanyun Building great again on Feisi Book!
While waiting for everyone, Lu Mengqing read the personal homepage of "Qingji Sect Mingwu Peak Official". Then, she clicked on the mutual links of "Qingji Sect Mingwu Peak Official", which were the homepages of several peak masters of Qingji Sect.
Because publishing the first "Fei Si Bu" is the first task for novice users. Every peak master has posted a non-thinking book to a greater or lesser extent.
@白若如: @刘明湘, you played very well in today’s game, keep it up.
Lu Mengqing clicked on the homepage of the disciple of "Liu Mingxiang". It seems that this disciple was invited by Bai Ruoru to register today. The only thing on the homepage is Fei Si Bu, which introduces himself.
The personal introduction is "Liu Mingxiang, a direct disciple of Yunu Peak, and a contestant in the Qingyan Competition in XX."
Lu Mengqing had never heard of this disciple's name before.
But there were actually hundreds of messages under the Feisi book of this unknown disciple.
Hundreds of them, that means replies from hundreds of disciples/peak masters!
Lu Mengqing was startled.
How can such a speed of publicity be achieved?
At this moment, Lu Mengqing didn’t understand that this was called big V traffic diversion.
The homepages of other peak masters also have their own characteristics. For example, Chang Feichang only sent one “.”
It seems very bad.
His first direct disciple, Mu Hanshan, did send a message: "I am Qianshengfeng's direct disciple, swordsman Mu Hanshan. This is my master @常非常."
Why does someone have to @Master when introducing themselves?
Fu Weidao is the most old-fashioned of all the peak masters of Qingji Sect, and he also pays the most attention to social ethics and hierarchy. Lu Mengqing heard that in his place, disciples could not even eat at the same table with their master.
But Fu Weidao also joined Feisibu and posted several pieces of content.
For example, the first post reads: "@Sikongtang Official, the gate of Jinting Peak has been damaged by flying sword cultivators for three days. When will it be repaired?!"
"@Discipline Department Official, inner sect disciples are disturbing people by singing late at night, how do you solve this problem? I saw you replied under the Feisi Book at Mingwu Peak."
It looked like he had used this place as a place to publicly punish other people for making complaints.
Compared with these peak masters, Ning Mingmei's Fei Si Book actually looks the most serious. He forwarded the schedule and posted a few original posts.
@宁明魅V: The first batch of invitation codes have been distributed. On a moonlit night with flowers blooming, enjoy a glass of Sprite, feel cool and refreshed @Qingji Special Drink.
This is the latest Fei Si Book published by Ning Mingmei. It looked like he had just left Lu Mengqing when he posted this.
There are already a few people replying below.
@Bai Ruoru: Indeed, Sprite is the best.
@Xiang Wuxing: Don’t drink Coke?
@Jiang Ying: Of course Sprite is the best~
@郑和光: Harmony brings wealth, don’t argue.
@宁明魅: What you said makes sense. Then we will start a ranking competition between Coke and Sprite.
…
So lively.
After reading the homepages of all the peak masters, Lu Mengqing's face became solemn. She didn't have time to browse the affiliated forum "Lianshu", but she still had one question left in her mind.
The Qingji Sect has twelve main peaks and one leader peak.
So these accounts...
How could there be no Fang Wuyu?
Thinking of this, Lu Mengqing clicked on the supplementary page below his personal homepage, but found that in addition to the entrance to "Collecting Books", there was also an entrance that showed "Under Construction".
It is called "HowNet".
Lu Mengqing:?
What is this?
…
In Piaomiao Peak.
"It is very important to let Lu Mengqing join the game. The Qingji Sect and Yanyun Tower jointly monopolize the game, which is the basis of my next plan." Ning Mingmei said, "The top leaders who have the supreme right to speak must unite. In this way, we can create rules that people have to follow. Only in this way can we appear as the 'Xianjie Academy' instead of the individual units of 'Qingji Sect' or 'Yanyun Tower'."
System: "... Isn't this Immortal Realm Society you mentioned still just your two families?"
It sounds like this is a platform that the two most powerful monopolistic immortal sects want to use to make profits.
Ning Mingmei took a sip of tea and said, "Yes, but it's different with the official cover."
system:……
Ning Mingmei: "And we are the strongest, who dares to say we are not official?"
System: "...Keep talking."
It wanted to hear what Ning Mingmei was trying to do.
"First, let's start with patents, copyrights, and academic status." Ning Mingmei said, "In order to have their status as the third best recognized, the third-best people in the world will rush to pay money or work for us."
System: "Won't these four families resist?"
Ning Mingmei said: "Just as the third in the world will seek proof of their status as the 'third in the world' from us. Soon, they will also find that the fifth in the world is also seeking recognition from them and us to become the 'fifth in the world'. Just as we charge the third in the world for patents, the third in the world can also charge the fifth in the world. Then, it is a simple recursive operation."
system:……
Ning Mingmei: "As long as the plate is big enough, everyone can have a piece of the pie. Institutions that are truly capable of deciding the situation can all get their own dividends from the plate. In this case, why should they resist? What if the new rules allow others to overturn their heads? What should they do then?"
System: "You have a nice idea."
Ning Mingmei took another sip of tea: "But now, this is not the point."
