Chapter 122 Three People
The disciple stumbled into the ice cave and received a cold greeting from Ning Mingmei.
Ning Mingmei: "Why are you running so fast?"
"Peak, Peak Master, Sect Leader Qi is here."
The veiled "woman" sitting opposite Ning Mingmei frowned and glanced at Ning Mingmei implicitly. The disciple who entered the room then discovered that there was a woman in Ning Mingmei's room.
I guess this woman is the Miss Xue that Ning Mingmei brought back!
When seeing Miss Xue for the first time, the disciple didn't dare to look at her, but found that the girl was a bit burly...
Ning Mingmei's eyes did not waver: "Master Qi came to see me, is this strange?"
This time, the person with a horrified expression became Miss Xue.
Disciple: "But Master Qi is dressed very strangely! He is wearing a green suit, but with two red sleeves..."
Moreover, Master Qi said that the green clothes were given by Ning Mingmei. Only the two red sleeves were added by him.
I really can't understand why the leader has to wear two red armbands!
Ning Mingmei still didn't raise his eyelids: "As a cultivator in the Void Refining Stage, my senior brother must have his own deep meaning. This set of clothes must be suitable for his breakthrough."
disciple:……
Is it still possible?
Ning Mingmei said: "Go tell Sect Leader Qi, I'll be there later."
"What?" The woman sitting opposite Ning Mingmei spoke, her voice low and neutral, "I was obviously here first. I was waiting outside the door for you to wake up, or I had something to tell you..."
...What a waste of time, it's still summer!
The disciple did not want to get involved in the Shura field, so he ran away crawling.
Ning Mingmei packed up the books in his hands and planned to set off after explaining the matters in the back mountain to Gui Ruoxue. Unexpectedly, Gui Ruoxue spoke first with a cold look on her face.
"What is your relationship with Qi Miancheng? Why are you so close now?"
There was even a hint of resentment in these words.
Ning Mingmei said: "We are brothers, and Qi Miancheng is the head of the sect. Isn't it normal for him to come to me?"
Gui Ruoxue's face was gloomy: "Gui Ruoxu and I are brothers, and Gui Ruoxu is also the head of the sect. Why have I never seen him come to see me so frequently?"
Being locked up in the back mountains doing scientific research drives people crazy. Now it seems that Gui Ruoxue is clearly showing signs of going crazy. Ning Mingmei said: "Wig, I fully recognize your scientific research ability. It's just..."
As soon as Ning Mingmei started his words with "wig", Gui Ruoxue knew that nothing good was going to happen next. But Gui Ruoxue is Gui Ruoxue after all. He still spoke up despite the chill: "Why do you call me Wig?"
Ning Mingmei said leisurely, "What a coincidence. Only those who are truly dedicated to scientific research will not care about such common issues about names or signatures. People who truly have a scientific spirit are the kind of people who can walk out of the laboratory with a smile even if their name in the paper slips from first author to second author due to the presence of their supervisor, and then slips to fifth author due to the cooperation unit, the supervisor's boss, or even the supervisor's nephew who is in high school and preparing to apply to study abroad."
Gui Ruoxue: "I don't understand what you are saying at all."
Ning Mingmei said: "What I mean is, I know you don't want to stay in the back mountain forever, but you have to put the overall situation first."
“…”
The beauty in white didn't say anything, but just lowered her eyes. After a while, he said, "I understand. I'll just..."
Ning Mingmei: "So, have the fifteen patent documents for Qingyutan been completed? Can they be completed ahead of schedule? Can the second batch of patents be documented while the patents are being implemented?"
……Depend on! It turns out that this is Ning Mingmei’s purpose!
Gui Ruoxue had no choice but to sign these humiliating terms, and put on a human skin mask and changed into women's clothes. When talking about the development of the Houshan Industrial Park, Ning Mingmei asked him, "How about a few disciples?"
"Ren Miao is very careful and keeps a very clear account book." Gui Ruoxue said, "You can indeed use her more - after all, she has no one to rely on except you."
Orphan newcomers with no background are the best to use. But Ning Mingmei said: "I want to ask about the other two...Xue Zhu and Wu Yun."
Gui Ruoxue: "They? They are very honest and are doing their own things."
Ning Mingmei felt a little more relaxed.
Gui Ruoxue: "Xuezhu brought back a lot of mushrooms recently. Xuezhu said that a mushroom can produce so many spores that it is impossible to count them. It would be great if mushrooms could produce enough lives. Moreover, he thinks mushrooms have tens of thousands of genders, which is more than the two genders he has. For this reason, he worships mushrooms very much."
Ning Mingmei: …………
What's this? Is this the legendary mushroom cult?
Ning Mingmei: "Where is Wu Yun?"
Gui Ruoxue: "Wu Yun is still researching the improvement of medicinal properties and materials."
Under conditions like those in the world of immortal cultivation, having someone who loves living things is enough. Ning Mingmei said to Gui Ruoxue: "Tell Xuezhu that for the long-term sales of Coke and Sprite, I decided to give him a new topic."
"Under normal circumstances, a chicken only has two wings and two legs. But when people drink Coke, they often like to have fried chicken wings with their meals. So is it possible that a chicken can have seven or eight wings? Let him investigate and submit a proposal report next month."
Ning Mingmei's will was faithfully conveyed to the back mountain, so Xuezhu regretfully gave up her mushroom-related project for the time being.
Sometimes, it is necessary to control laboratory research topics. It is better to be clear and ignorant of such thoughts.
And Gui Ruoxue finally got what he wanted.
An opportunity to go and watch Gui Taoran's competition with Ning Mingmei.
He put on women's clothes to conceal his scent, and walked out of the ice cave with Ning Mingmei.
Ning Mingmei lifted the veil covering the cave entrance and said to Gui Ruoxue who was wearing a veil beside him, "I didn't expect you to be so sincere to Gui Taoran. Wig, you are such a good uncle."
Gui Ruoxue said: "We are both people who have fallen into the same fate."
"Um?"
"Back when I was in Minghua Valley, I was imprisoned in the Dark Flower Prison for 'disobeying the sect'. Before that, I was the well-known second valley master in Minghua Valley. There were countless elders and disciples who came to my house to give gifts..." Gui Ruoxue sneered, "Once something happened, these people didn't even put on a show."
Ning Mingmei said: "So the only one who came to visit you at that time was this child."
Gui Ruoxue said, "Yes. Coming to Qingji Sect to watch his competition is also my promise to him."
Ning Mingmei said casually: "In fact, I have always been curious about why Gui Taoran was sent to Qingji Sect - isn't it good to be a pill cultivator in Minghua Valley?"
Ning Mingmei asked casually, he didn't expect Gui Ruoxue to reply him. After all, this is the secret of Minghua Valley.
But Gui Ruoxue spoke, and very casually, as if he believed from the bottom of his heart that Ning Mingmei was qualified to know his secret.
"Because although Gui Taoran's mother loved him, she didn't expect him to inherit her position in Minghua Valley - one person for each job, and she had long decided to leave this position to her eldest son. As for Gui Taoran? The most important thing he was expected to do was to be a sensible playboy and not compete with his brother."
Ning Mingmei: "The organization of your Minghua Valley is still hereditary. But the positions of the second, third, and fourth valley masters seem to be unlimited."
The person Ning Mingmei contacted was naturally Gui Ruoxue herself.
Gui Taoran is the unwanted and expelled younger brother. Gui Ruoxue is also an unexpected younger brother who must submit to his elder brother but admires him very much.
However, Gui Ruoxue's situation is a little worse than Gui Taoran's.
Gui Ruoxue's eyes were slightly cold: "You are right. I am different from him. Gui Taoran is his younger brother, but he is the legitimate son. And I, although I am recorded under the name of Gui Ruoxu's mother... In fact, Gui Ruoxu and I have the same father but different mothers, and I am a bastard."
Another secret.
Because he was a bastard, he was born without even the chance to fight for it.
Because he is a bastard's son, no matter what... he can't be Gui Ruoxu's younger brother, and he can't be the second valley master who is devoted to the valley in the eyes of others.
Just like every action is full of hidden intentions and every behavior is full of controversy. Others looked askance at him, his brother taught him, and secretly imprisoned him. When he finally left Minghua Valley, everyone said, "He really betrayed me."
The hidden pain in my heart was spoken out like this. Gui Ruoxue was stunned for a moment, because he realized that he actually trusted Ning Mingmei so much.
Why?
Is it because Ning Mingmei is the only one who remains indifferent and objective, always paying attention to rationality, and has never expressed any evaluation based on personal likes and dislikes and moral values in front of him?
This kind of thinking is extremely dangerous... Before Gui Ruoxue could react, Ning Mingmei spoke.
"You are wrong." Ning Mingmei said, "The problem with you is not that you are a bastard, but that you are a genius."
The light of genius is difficult to conceal. Because they are always attracted by interests like a fire and rush to the direction they want to go.
As long as you shine, you will burn others.
The interests of genius are private. But the benefits they bring are valuable and meaningful and will be used by interest groups. Their willful display of wisdom often results in them becoming tools for others to use. For example, the magic used by Wu Yun, and the medicine made by Gui Ruoxue. Geniuses often go in extreme directions due to various inducements.
Compared with a useful Gui Ruoxue and a useless Gui Taoran, who is worse?
Perhaps, if Gui Ruoxue was a fool, Gui Ruoxu would treat him more like a cute little brother.
Having knowledge but not having power is a cruelty to genius. Even if they sometimes hold power, it is another kind of cruelty for these highly intelligent geniuses.
"Only when knowledge becomes true knowledge and exists only as knowledge..." Ning Mingmei said.
Gui Ruoxue waited for him to say the next word, but Ning Mingmei said nothing in the end.
He only said half a sentence.
"Never mind. It's too vulgar."
Gui Ruoxue: "Vulgar?"
Ning Mingmei turned around and said, "The exit to the mountain is this direction."
Gui Ruoxue was stunned: "Which direction were you going just now...?"
Ning Mingmei: "Go back to the back mountain."
Gui Ruoxue: ...
"So you were going to take me back? You lied to me? You didn't plan to take me out?"
Ning Mingmei: "As expected of a genius, so smart."
Gui Ruoxue: ...
Gui Ruoxue took two steps and said, "Forget it, forget it."
"You begged me for a long time, but now you just forget it?"
Gui Ruoxue: "What do you mean by asking? It's a deal! But I think since Qi Miancheng is here..."
Gui Ruoxue was confident that with the help of Ning Mingmei and Wu Yun, her exquisite dressing skills could fool everyone. But today Qi Miancheng actually came to Ning Mingmei to travel with him, which made him a little worried.
After all, Qi Miancheng is unfathomable. If Qi Miancheng were to discover my existence, wouldn't that cause unnecessary trouble?
Ning Mingmei: "You can be completely assured about Qi Miancheng."
Gui Ruoxue couldn't understand where Ning Mingmei got his confidence from.
It’s just one day off, it doesn’t matter if you don’t take it. Anyway, I have been researching it for several months, so one day won’t make a difference.
He thought about it and decided to turn back. But before he could take a step, he saw something like...
Extremely colorful stuff.
Gui Ruoxue:? !
The thing was green except for the two red stripes on its sleeves... and it was walking towards the two people. After seeing the two people, the man began to wave and smiled slightly.
"Junior brother," the man said, "I saw that you haven't come for a long time, so I came here by myself. Junior brother, do you mind?"
As he spoke, he looked at the stunned woman beside Ning Mingmei, and his smile deepened.
"I wonder who this person is..."
"This is Miss Xue, whom I brought back from outside." Ning Mingmei introduced.
"Bring it back?" Qi Miancheng repeated these three words.
Ning Mingmei: "Yes, I have a close relationship with her."
