Chapter 15 Smells Good
Ning Mingmei said, "These nine-colored dumplings taste good. They are indeed what cultivators should eat. Buy a few more boxes and bring them back. Give one box to Elder Fang so that he can taste the taste of his own money."
Ning Mingmei said, "This tea tastes good. Take a few dozen boxes back home. For the next twenty years, Piao Miao Peak will use this tea to entertain guests."
Ning Mingmei said: "These five evasion techniques are good. I have done a thorough study on them. When I return, let me investigate the market demand for evasion techniques and produce a summary."
…No matter how good your dodging skills are, you can’t avoid the system’s electricity. Ning Mingmei fell to the ground again.
The system had been writing code every day for the past few days. Seeing Ning Mingmei slacking off, the system could no longer tolerate it and finally gave Ning Mingmei an electric shock. It felt refreshed for a moment: "So when are you going to find someone?"
A trembling hand stretched out from under the table and caught the nine-colored dumpling that fell: "There is progress. This time you didn't ask me why I didn't go to see the male lead."
The system was shocked.
Ning Mingmei seemed to have evolved again. This time, even the tone of his voice after being electrocuted was so nonchalant.
"Searching for the missing disciples of Yanyun Tower is a mandatory mission assigned to you by both Qingji Sect and Yanyun Tower. If you fail in the mission, your reputation in Qingji Sect will inevitably be further damaged."
Ning Mingmei calmly got up and ate the dumplings: "I didn't expect you to care about me so much."
The voice was full of sarcasm.
...What does it matter? It’s just that the system knows Ning Mingmei too well. It knows that by then Ning Mingmei will definitely find more reasons not to see the male protagonist. After this guy came here, he did nothing but hold his crappy group meetings and make money. When will he do the main quest?
The system felt like a worried eunuch: "Is the host really carrying out this mission well? This system can provide additional information: Yu Niao is currently unconscious, and Fan Juntian is also injured. If the host does not take action for a long time, he will really die."
Ning Mingmei was calm and composed: "Oh? Are you begging me? After you finish writing the information system of this world, I can consider listening to your opinions."
system:……
Why, even though I electrocuted him, he's not happy at all. Electric shocks are no longer enough to appease the system's anger. The system began to think of new ways to control Ning Mingmei.
Ning Mingmei said again: "Come in."
It turned out that Lin Heting's disciples had returned.
Lin Heting and others brought back new news.
Lin Heting said: "Three disciples from Yanyun Tower concealed their auras and disguised themselves to enter Yinhua Lane. The three were all good students, and faced with Yinhua Lane, they were at a loss as to what to do."
Lao Liu said: "They didn't spend money in brothels, opium dens or casinos. They just went door to door to ask if there were any auction houses selling special items."
Cool Brother Lao Wu said: "Song Mingke was teased by a demon in a casino as a furnace."
Oh teasing.
Oh, wait...Song Mingke?
With a face as beautiful as jade, a gentle temperament, and a little cinnabar between her eyebrows, it is indeed easy for people to mistake her for him.
System: "I told you a long time ago that Song Mingke also has good fortune."
Ning Mingmei was puzzled: "Is this luck meant to be teased by others? Why not have a luck that works for me?"
It seems that this son of luck is not that great. He is not as good as his third senior brother who has connections and can bring two free RAs to work together.
Generally speaking, the disciples of Yanyun Tower returned empty-handed. After working for a day and a half, they found nothing, and they were still working in vain. Ning Mingmei put the nine-colored dumplings back on the table and said, "Okay, I got it. Go and have a rest."
The fifth and sixth brothers withdrew, but Lin Heting did not. Lin Heting said: "Master, Elder Chang's three disciples have gone to keep an eye on them for us. What should we do next? Should we continue to keep an eye on them?"
To be honest, Lin Heting had a lot of resentment towards the missing disciple with connections.
He didn't choose a good place to disappear, but chose the junction of three realms where all kinds of people gather. As a result, even the disciples of Yanyun Tower themselves didn't know where he had gone. The disciples of Qingji Sect were just like them, and could only look for a needle in a haystack in such a fog.
Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Heting frowned and whispered to Ning Mingmei, "Master, we shouldn't have taken this job."
It's a thankless job. He was exposed to the scandal of Yanyun Tower again. If he failed to find the person, he would have to complain to others.
Ning Mingmei only said: "Go back and have a good rest. Meet me at 10:00 p.m. in the evening. If the people from Yanyun Tower come back, ask them to come as well."
Lin Heting asked: "Master, where are we going in the evening?"
Ning Mingmei said without blinking: "Let's go to a fun place. By the way, before we leave, ask Elder Chang if he wants to go with us."
Fun place?
Lin Heting said: "I saw Elder Chang on my way back. Elder Chang was taking a nap on the roof."
Lin Heting walked away completely confused. There was no one around, so the system asked: "What do you plan to do tonight?"
Ning Mingmei's actions were so unpredictable that even it couldn't grasp them, let alone give the two options of "one red and one blue".
Ning Mingmei: "Elder Chang is very stable."
system:?
I don’t understand.
Of course the system doesn’t understand. Ning Mingmei was not anxious or panicked because he had already made a plan in mind. Why are you always calm and not panicky?
Ning Mingmei didn't respond for a long while. The system was extremely indignant, so it had to work hard to write code and think of new ways to deal with Ning Mingmei.
Suddenly, a voice came from Ning Mingmei.
"Either he has other intentions, or he is in Yaochuan City and has other ways. Let's wait and see."
The system looked sideways.
For some reason, Ning Mingmei often gave it a feeling of being extremely intelligent and almost demonic because of his correct reasoning without any solid basis.
Think about it this way. The system's heart suddenly jumped.
Could it be that Ning Mingmei’s “group meeting” was also a trap set by him to capture the male protagonist?
Then the system saw Ning Mingmei recruit the waiter.
The black-haired swordsman said to the waiter, "It is said that Yaochuan City is a large city. What are the most interesting places here?"
?
Song Mingke has been having a pretty magical time these past few days.
One reason was that she was soft-hearted for a moment and could not resist Zheng Yinshang's repeated requests, so she agreed to let him go to the largest silk shop in Yaochuan City to bring back a set of clothes before leaving Yaochuan City. As a result, Zheng Yinshang disappeared with Yu Niao.
The second is to follow the two least-known elders of Qingji Sect back to Yaochuan City to look for someone. Along the way, they not only took a flying boat that was extremely luxurious for those who practiced Taoism, stayed in the most upscale inn in Yaochuan City, but also witnessed on the flying boat the most incredible breakthroughs that several people had ever seen since they started practicing Taoism.
...What is the origin of this unknown Piaomiao Peak? Why is the way this disciple named Lin Heting breaks through so strangely? What kind of secrets are they hiding?
The Yanqing Forum is a forum on Taoism held once every three years between the two greatest sects in the world. Due to the failure in the home battle three years ago, many elders of Yanyun Tower attached great importance to the result of this discussion and vowed to let their disciples win first place (although there were only two immortal sects participating). As the last disciple of the head of Yanyun Tower, Song Mingke naturally carries high expectations.
The high hopes placed on Song Mingke include not only his own practice, but also his investigation into the practice of the Qingji Sect's disciples. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.
Qingji Sect and Yanyun Tower have a good relationship, so this is of course an aboveboard conspiracy. Before leaving, several elders told Song Mingke that among the Thirteen Peaks of Qingji, the most famous are of course Tiantai Peak where the leader of Qingji Sect is located, Baiyun Peak where Fang Wuyu is located, and several peaks under the charge of Yin Xisheng, Bai Ruoru, and Xiang Wuxing. These disciples of the Qingji Sect elders are all highly anticipated seeded players who will win the Yanqing Discussion. Song Mingke must pay special attention to Qi Miancheng and Fang Wuyu's disciples.
Even Chang Feichang, who was sleepy all day, was mentioned for his glorious history of having conceived a baby at an early age. Song Mingke remembered that the elders all said with regret at that time: "It took a hundred years to form an infant, and after becoming a spirit, he still looks like a teenager. What a genius he is. If it weren't for that incident... his cultivation would not have improved at all. Otherwise, the world of immortal cultivation..."
Only Elder Ning from Piaomiao Peak did not leave a single word among the elders. Out of caution, Song Mingke still asked the head of the sect about this matter.
The head of the sect only said: "The elder Ning of the Qingji Sect is obsessed with cultivation and has been in seclusion for many years. He rarely guides his disciples. There is no need to spend any time on Piaomiao Peak."
He added: "The sword-wielding elders of the Qingji Sect are all like this. They are ruthless and their only duty is to strengthen the seal of the divine sword every year."
But now it seems that Piaomiao Peak is not like that!
Song Mingke originally wanted to ask Lin Heting for advice...if Yu Niao and Zheng Yinshang were not still missing.
The third is what happened after arriving at Yaochuan City.
The Qingji Sect only showed its reliability for a short period of time. After that, Elder Chang, Elder Ning and others spent the whole day enjoying themselves in the inn, and never mentioned anything about looking for someone. The three of them were the only ones left, anxious and running all over Yinhua Lane secretly.
They only remembered that Zheng Yinshang had said before that there were some "good things" in the auction in Yaochuan City.
For fear of exposing their identities, the three disguised themselves and asked around, but to no avail. Even more unfortunate was that his true identity was discovered by a fox demon cultivator.
When the demon cultivator walked towards them, Song Mingke thought he was going to attack Lu Youyu, so he frowned and protected Lu Youyu.
Unexpectedly, he was the one who was teased in the end.
There was a tense situation among several people in Yinhua Lane. Fan Juntian's sword swung wildly and scratched the demon's face. When the blood flowed down the demon's cheek, everyone was panicked. I know this matter cannot end well.
But the big demon just wiped the blood on his cheek with his fingers in a sinister manner, and his slender eyes were still staring at Song Mingke. Between wiping and staring, the big demon actually smiled.
"If I like something, I will never let it go," he said.
The demon cultivator had profound skills, and Song Mingke was unable to see through him for the moment, so he could only retreat to the inn with the other two to end the matter.
He was extremely nervous, and he didn't blame Fan Juntian. He was just worried that this incident would make it more difficult for everyone to find Yu Niao. But perhaps good times will come after bad times, and this time when he came back he heard good news. Lin Heting informed them that Ning Mingmei asked them to go out with Qing Jizong and others in the evening.
Lu Youyu was still a little frightened after what happened that afternoon, but he was also very happy: "Brother Mingke, does Qingji Sect have any clues?"
Song Mingke thought so too, and he finally felt relieved and put the matter of the monster behind him.
That night.
Several people were silent in the best restaurant in Yaochuan City.
Another table full of delicacies from land and sea. After dinner, Ning Mingmei took a few people to the night market. The midnight in Yaochuan City is also full of fireworks and never-ending nights. Ning Mingmei asked the inn's waiter to guide him around. He visited this jade shop and that silk shop, picking out the most expensive items and either selecting them or buying them. Except for the fact that he often showed a painful expression because of the poor aesthetics of this thing (actually it was because his character was broken and he was electrocuted by the system), he was having a lot of fun at other times.
Song Mingke had a lot of questions in his heart. After returning to the inn, Lin Heting came to pass on the message again: "Master said that we should gather in his room tomorrow morning before going out."
The three people from Yanyun Tower: ...
The advantage of going out with the people of Qingji Sect is that Ning Mingmei and Chang Feichang are there, so the big demon dare not act rashly. The disadvantage is that this night...
Lu Youyu: "Did we do anything else besides eating, drinking and having fun?"
Song Mingke sat and rubbed his forehead. Lu Youyu counted the time, "We have been in Yaochuan City for two and a half days. We need to rest. Qingji Sect should have rested enough. We have been busy these days, while they have been eating, drinking, playing, and sightseeing. They have done everything."
Seeing that Fan Juntian was still playing with the gadgets he bought from the store today, Lu Youyu became even more angry and threw the things out of his hands.
Fan Juntian: "What are you doing?"
"You see, the people from Qingji Sect didn't even think about helping us find someone, and were just taking this opportunity to have fun?" Lu Youyu was furious.
Fan Juntian said: "Maybe he will take us to find it tomorrow?"
Neither of them noticed that Song Mingke, who was sitting behind them, looked extremely tired and bored.
Will you go look for it tomorrow?
The answer is.
The next day, the three people from Yanyun Tower were taken by Ning Mingmei to tour Yaochuan City for a day.
On the third day, he went to luxurious places as usual and left nothing behind. By dinner time, Lu Youyu could no longer bear it and went back to his room angrily. She questioned Ning Mingmei, but Ning Mingmei only gave her one sentence.
"Hmm? Aren't we going in and out of various places looking for people?"
Lu Youyu: ...What is this! I'm so angry!
In fact, she didn't know that there was another "person" who couldn't bear it anymore.
system.
Ning Mingmei was chewing mint leaves in the room with no expression on his face. Ever since Ning Mingmei discovered this leaf in a store that can refresh the mind, soothe the spirit, and has a hint of sugar-like sweetness, he has used it as a small dessert after being electrocuted by the system.
A relaxing dessert.
There was a Go board in front of him, and sitting opposite him was Chang Feichang. The young man in gray had drooped his eyelids. Ever since he was forced into a desperate situation by Ning Mingmei's black piece, Chang Feichang had been holding the white piece in a daze. So far, I have been in a daze for a stick of incense time.
Ning Mingmei never expected that Chang Feichang would suddenly come to him with a chessboard and play chess with him.
These days, Ning Mingmei took his disciples around for a stroll, and Chang Feichang also followed them everywhere, following behind them like a yawning tail.
He didn't say a single "no" to Ning Mingmei's abnormal behavior.
It's chilly outside the window in early spring, and I often feel dazed inside the window. The system said: "Host, it has been four days since you came to Yaochuan City."
Ning Mingmei: "Are they dead?"
System: “Not dead.”
I knew Ning Mingmei would say "That's it". The system can only give another question: "There are only three days left until the host's next group meeting."
Ning Mingmei: "Indeed, Lin Heting and the other two haven't done any academic work these days."
...You are the one who is really behaving outrageously!
Travel during the day and digest classics at night. There are seven books in total, six of which are all about various Qinggong techniques, and the remaining one is about acupuncture... Does Ning Mingmei still remember that he is a sword fairy?
Ning Mingmei said: "It shows that the disciples of Yanyun Tower are really stable. At this time, they are still unwilling to tell me the truth."
The system was speechless, and before Chang Feichang made his move, Ning Mingmei heard the door knock three times.
It turned out that Song Mingke was here.
Ning Mingmei didn't even raise his eyelids when he saw him coming, but just played with the folding fan he had just bought. Chang Feichang was still in a daze. Song Mingke stood in the room for a long time. Seeing that Ning Mingmei and Chang Feichang had no intention of greeting him, he lowered his head and said, "Elder Ning, don't argue with Youyu. She is just worried about Yu Niao and Zheng Yinshang and is anxious."
He heard Ning Mingmei smile meaningfully: "I can't tell you're so anxious."
Song Mingke was very kind-hearted. He was silent for a moment and said, "Elder Ning..."
He bowed deeply.
Song Mingke finally confessed the truth about what he had been hiding from the disciples of Yanyun Tower. The whole outcome of the incident was almost exactly what Ning Mingmei had guessed. In addition, he also took the responsibility of allowing Zheng Yinshang to do what he wanted and concealing the truth on himself. Finally, he said that although he was ashamed, the situation was urgent, so he could only ask Ning Mingmei for help.
Song Mingke: "Ask the two elders for help!"
He lowered his head for a long time, and finally waited for Ning Mingmei to reply: "Pack up, let's go out together tonight."
Then Ning Mingmei added: "There is no need to bring the other two disciples from Yanyun Tower with you."
Song Mingke hesitated for a moment, trying to figure out Ning Mingmei's intention: "If we're going to look for someone, the more helpers the better, right?"
Ning Mingmei was unfathomable, so Song Mingke had no choice but to leave obediently.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse.
"Elder Ning played this game well. I admit defeat."
Chang Feichang just randomly places the chess pieces, giving the black side a great advantage on the chessboard. The young man in gray yawned and said, "I'll go back and get some sleep... When do we leave?"
Ning Mingmei: "I'll call you when we leave."
Chang Feichang came and went without a trace, just like a gray cat. Only a chessboard is left.
The system saw Ning Mingmei staring at the chessboard and said in surprise: "You can play chess? You can also kill all the natives here without leaving a single piece of armor."
"What are you talking about?" Ning Mingmei picked up the white piece that Chang Feichang had dropped from the chessboard. "I only know how to play Gobang. It would take a lot of effort for this person to lose to me."
After a while, he frowned and said, "One black dot is missing."
The moon was bright in the sky, and Chang Feichang was sitting on a tall building. He blocked the bright moon with sunspots, like a celestial dog devouring the moon, biting the white jade plate until only a few faint rays of light were left.
…
System: "Considering that Chang Feichang's master is the previous Sword-wielding Elder, is there a possibility that he regards you as a substitute for his master?"
Ning Mingmei commented: "Try restarting it."
system:?
It took the system ten minutes to realize that Ning Mingmei was saying that there was something wrong with its brain.
Ning Mingmei didn't come over with the waiter until Song Mingke, Mu Hanshan and Lin Heting arrived. Looking at the three trusted disciples in front of him, Ning Mingmei asked the waiter to throw three masks to them: "Put them on."
By the way, he threw the remaining mask to Chang Feichang who arrived late.
In the past few days, the waiter has received a lot of tips from Ning Mingmei, and has been taking care of Ning Mingmei on his travels. He is so attentive that he almost wants to squat down and serve as a footstool for Ning Mingmei. If this scene happened to someone else, it would really make these disciples feel jealous. But when it came to Ning Mingmei, several disciples felt it was natural... so natural that when they woke up in the middle of the night, they were shocked by their own familiar thoughts.
After the carriage traveled several dozen feet, Song Mingke quietly lifted the curtain to look at the surrounding scenery, but he was still confused: "Elder Ning, where are we going?"
Ning Mingmei: "Silver Flower Lane."
Oh Silver Flower Lane.
Silver Flower Lane? ?
Song Mingke was surprised at first, then delighted: Elder Ning finally brought them out to look for someone!
"Elder Ning." He said sincerely, "I... apologize again on behalf of Youyu. I really misunderstood you."
His heart was filled with gratitude.
The carriage drove into Yinhua Lane, with bright lights, wine, and chirping birds on both sides of the road. There are brothels that men visit, and there are gigolo clubs that women like. Listening to the noise outside, the upright Mu Hanshan felt a little uneasy. Lin Heting, who always likes to appear "knowledgeable", also blushed this time.
He whispered: "Master..."
As for Song Mingke, he thought of his experiences of the previous two days and felt uneasy.
"Are we there yet?" Ning Mingmei asked the waiter.
"We're here." The waiter said with a smile, "This is the most famous casino in Yinhua Lane. Come and have a look!"
Ning Mingmei got off the car with three disciples and Chang Feichang, and walked in front, calm and composed.
The system asked Ning Mingmei: "Is this also part of your academic business trip?"
Isn't this too impure?
Ning Mingmei said: "Some people are like this, but I never go."
System: “Why?”
Ning Mingmei pushed his glasses up: "Instead of playing with this, why not reply to a few more emails?"
...Okay.
"Elder Ning has been here?"
Someone else asked the same question. Ning Mingmei said calmly: "No."
Perhaps it was because Ning Mingmei's attitude was too calm. So everyone followed him around aimlessly, and finally Chang said in a very arrogant tone: "If you want to go to the private room, you have to take this road."
The waiter who was supposed to lead the way finally woke up from his dream.
I originally thought that wandering around was Ning Mingmei's intention.
A group of suckers entered the casino's highest charging floor. Ning Mingmei had only played a few games when the system noticed that he had extremely bad luck. He simply sent a few disciples out to play.
While everyone was gone, the system asked: "Do you think you are behaving properly?"
Ning Mingmei looked at his own hands: "This luck is really terrible."
System: "How can you, a cold and aloof master, bring your apprentice and colleagues to such a place!"
If there weren't people coming and going around, it would be as dark as a raging firefly.
Ning Mingmei: "Although my purpose is not like this. But in my place, there are still such rotten masters. Especially those who work on construction sites, haha. If you don't go with them, you will be ostracized."
...Where the hell did Ning Mingmei come from?
Ning Mingmei said, "Look, Lin Heting and the other guys have lost all their chips. Only Chang Feichang has won a little. Tell me, how can a professor of Qingji Sect be so successful in a place like this? It's as if he has spent a long time here in the past."
system:……
Ning Mingmei arranged people to come to the casino. Besides "looking for someone", could he also have the purpose of testing Chang Feichang?
Ning Mingmei: "I'll leave right away after I'm done here. I don't even dare drink the water in places like this. Who knows what they add to it? Sigh, I could have been eating dumplings and drinking sweet water in the hotel, but I've made so many sacrifices for them."
...It must be overthinking it.
Ning Mingmei asked a few people to leave the casino - as usual, Lin Heting was the one who kept the bill. Lin Heting has been sleeping worse and worse these past few days, and there are dark circles under his eyes. I guess it has something to do with this account book.
After leaving the casino, he went to several pubs, teahouses and theaters. Ning Mingmei came and went very quickly, and was cold and indifferent throughout.
Ning Mingmei didn't give out any rewards today, which was very different from his behavior of giving out money everywhere in the past few days. The waiter was terrified, fearing that he had offended this powerful man.
You know, for most of the powerful people, it is common to kill a few mortals in anger.
The waiter was very conscious and he put Ning Mingmei's comfort experience first. He thought about it and said as he passed by a group of brothels: "Master, do you want to..."
Then he was glared at by Lin Heting, Song Mingke and Mu Hanshan at the same time.
Lin Heting: How dare you let my master go to that kind of place?
Mu Hanshan: How dare you let my master go to that kind of place?
Song Mingke: How dare you let the disciples of Yanyun Tower go to that kind of place?
Waiter: ...
In fact, I felt something was wrong when I said it. Ning Mingmei turned his back to him, as if he had no interest, and said, "Is this the last fun place in Yaochuan City? I came here because I had heard of Yaochuan City's fame for a long time and wanted to broaden my horizons. It seems that it is just like this."
It sounds like the opportunity to make money is completely gone. The waiter said quickly, "There is another place, which is the most famous in Yaochuan City. People who have just arrived here don't know about it. But if the Immortal wants to find the most interesting things, they can find them there."
Where?
Gold-selling building.
Ning Mingmei followed the waiter through many twists and turns before finally arriving at the legendary "Xiaojin Tower". When passing through a place, Ning Mingmei said: "I felt like I was bitten by a mosquito."
The system said: "That thing is called a restriction. There is a powerful person in charge here."
Ning Mingmei asked: "How big is it?"
The system said: "Late stage of Spiritualization, one small realm higher than you."
If foundation building is the realm that most cultivators can reach, then those who can reach the stage of forming a pill are all talented cultivators. As time goes on, each level becomes more difficult. Among the Jindan people, only one in ten thousand has the qualifications or opportunity to form a baby. The hurdle from Nascent Soul to Spiritualization is like a chasm: amazing talent, amazing opportunity and amazing luck are all indispensable.
It can be said that foundation building and below is a hurdle, Golden Core and Nascent Soul are each a hurdle, and above the Nascent Soul, one can only look up to from afar.
The realm of the Spirit Transformation Period is divided into early, middle, late and great perfection. Each small realm is enough to leave the people behind by a large margin, especially the great perfection of the incarnation of the spirit which is called "saint". If there is only a small step between the early, middle and late stages, then the Great Perfection is enough to make the later stages far beyond the reach - those who have achieved the Great Perfection can and will impact the Lianxu stage at any time.
The Lianxu period is the beginning of the middle realm, from which one truly enters the ranks of sages and true men.
Ning Mingmei is in the middle stage of the transformation of the spirit and can only be called an "immortal". Master Qi is a saint who has reached the state of great perfection in spiritual transformation. During that turmoil, in order to save the disciples from various sects from danger, he forcibly broke through to the fusion stage. Although he set up a seal and saved everyone, he also died. Ning Mingmei was ordered to take charge in a time of crisis, and in a self-destructive way, he forced himself to become cold and ruthless. When Yin Xisheng seized power and the Qingji Sect was in chaos, he killed several traitors and took control of the seal of the leader...
Ning Mingmei: "What did I hear? The cause of my senior brother's death?"
System: "So you want to save him..."
Ning Mingmei: "And how can I get rich? I really want that house from my senior brother."
...I knew Ning Mingmei was a heartless person!
System: "Things are not that good. You have no background and no savings. After you were promoted to the head of the sect, you spent your days fighting in the party struggles with your ruthlessness and running around to gain reputation for the Qingji Sect. In the end, under the calculations of the male protagonist, the sect complained about your harshness. When you were killed by the male protagonist, not only did no one dare to come forward to save you, but some disciples also discussed privately that this was justice from heaven."
Ning Mingmei: “…Tsk.”
What an idealist.
Knowing that he had the physique of a furnace, he burned his life, suffered injuries all over his body, and served as the "acting leader" in the eyes of everyone, which was a harsh and unjustifiable role. Without a backer, he can only rely on force to intimidate others and try his best to slay demons and uphold justice.
In the end, people think that they are greedy for fame and fortune and are inhuman.
In the end, the person died, his bones were dug out, and it became what others called "justice from heaven."
A figure flashed through Ning Mingmei's mind. The haze was heavy and the old man was standing upstairs.
The system waited for Ning Mingmei to speak. But after Ning Mingmei said "tsk", there was no other reaction.
It's strange, under normal circumstances, Ning Mingmei would always complain a few more times.
"This is Yaochuan's Gold-selling Tower," said the waiter. "This is Yaochuan's largest auction house and exchange! The best and rarest things are all here!"
He spread his hands, revealing the magnificent hall behind him.
Several disciples were dumbfounded. The luxurious atmosphere of the Xiaojin Building and the magical weapons from all walks of life are dizzying. There are nine floors in the Xiaojin Building, each with a different theme. There are both public auction venues and private boxes.
The higher the level, the rarer the magic weapons on display. The public area goes up to the sixth floor and you cannot go up anymore. But when the guards saw them and the waiter, they actually let them pass.
Everyone was then able to go up to the eighth floor - the entire Xiaojin Building only had nine floors. The waiter left and a new waiter followed them.
On the eighth floor, Lin Heting even saw a string of evil Buddhist beads made from the spine of a high monk from Baopu Temple. The reason why they are evil Buddhist beads is that before the monk was tortured to death, he witnessed the people from the evil sect skinning his several brothers and sisters alive in front of him, and then covering the wounds with straw - the monk who had attained enlightenment was finally exposed and contaminated with evil nature before his death. So that string of evil Buddhist beads combined evil and Buddha nature into one, and had a unique and strange power.
Lin Heting only took one look at the Buddhist beads and didn't dare to look at them again - the white bone beads were faintly red, like a string of eyes staring at him.
In addition to evil things, there are also extremely good things. For example, it is a picture of a goddess dancing, with her eyebrows lowered and her eyes under her eyelashes full of holiness. Just standing in front of that painting, I feel my soul being cleansed.
Several disciples looked at the picture, even Chang Feichang craned his neck to look at it.
Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Heting whispered to Ning Mingmei, who was looking out the window alone, "Master, are we able to enter here because of the waiter's favor?"
Should we say that Chengyuan is worthy of being the most luxurious inn in Yaochuan City? Even this seemingly ordinary waiter has such face.
Ning Mingmei said: "Lin Heting has good comprehension, but his IQ is not high enough."
Of course, they are only concerned about their own face.
Since ancient times, the most exclusive clubs have only entertained the most well-connected SVIPs. If you don't have a mutual referral relationship to introduce yourself, you can only spend money.
Ning Mingmei: "No one doesn't like money, because behind money there is always power. This is the charm of money. If I hadn't spent all that money in those few days, and hadn't forced myself to eat so many good things and visit so many good places, how could I have come here?"
System: "Unfair to yourself? Are you talking like a human being?"
Ning Mingmei: "What you said is true. I haven't done any academic work for several days. Isn't this a kind of sacrifice?"
System: "By the way, there are so many good things around, why don't you take a look?"
Ning Mingmei was very calm: "I am currently illiterate and cannot understand a single magic weapon."
Ning Mingmei was shocked again. His hands trembled, and Lin Heting immediately asked him what was wrong.
"Nothing, I just want to know who in Yaochuan City can afford to buy the things here." Ning Mingmei said.
He heard light footsteps behind him, probably from a cultivator in the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm.
Someone laughed behind him, in a smoky voice: "If you don't have enough spiritual stones, behind the cave of vengeance is the hell."
"Boss Liu." The waiter lowered his head and said.
The person standing behind Ning Mingmei was actually a woman. The woman was wearing a dress of strange style, a bit like a cheongsam, which outlined her neat but elegant curves. She couldn't be called the most beautiful, but she had a unique charm.
From a mortal's perspective, she looked to be in her early thirties, with squinting eyes that looked a bit like a cat. Although she was smiling at Ning Mingmei, it was obvious that she was not a easy person to get along with.
The waiter took over the waiter's introduction task: "Boss Liu is the boss of Wujianzhijian. Wujianzhijian is the largest pawnshop in Yaochuan City."
Got it. Promoting consumerism and usury.
There was another person behind her... This person was wearing a purple robe and a silver mask.
Ning Mingmei: "How high is this person's cultivation level?"
System: "...Middle stage of the Spiritualization Stage, be careful. I've told you to start cultivating! All you do all day is hold group meetings and learn escape techniques."
I can't even tell the different levels of people's cultivation.
Ning Mingmei: "He is in the middle stage of incarnation, not the late stage. It seems that he is just a boss in name only."
system:……
Ning Mingmei: "Why are you so careful? I'm just an employee, what's there to be afraid of? If you don't meet this month's sales KPI, you'll be punished."
System: "Although I don't understand what you are saying, I feel like you are not speaking human language."
The masked man said, "Ordinary people would be dazzled when they enter the eighth floor of the Gold Tower. But this immortal seemed to treat everything in the Gold Tower as if it were a worn-out shoe."
"It's been a while since anyone called me boss. Although he just wanted to urge me to spend money on him, I felt a sense of familiarity. I want to guide him academically." Ning Mingmei said something nonsense to the system.
He just remained silent when facing the few people. The masked man continued, "If you disappoint the Immortal, it means we have failed to take good care of you. If there is anything you want, why not... let us show our hospitality?"
We love your money.
I really want to thank Fang Wuyu for giving me the charm value increasing rocket.
Ning Mingmei said: "It's classy enough, but not exciting enough."
You know, we, the high-altitude flowers who practice in seclusion on the snowy mountains, come down the mountain just to seek excitement...
! ! !
Ning Mingmei was almost electrocuted to death by the system this time. At the same time, the system took over his body, keeping his body and expression stable.
Ning Mingmei thought to himself: "…Why did you shock me so hard?"
System: "This is! Gaoling Flower!! You absolutely cannot!! Say this!!"
Ning Mingmei, what are you talking about? Ning Mingmei, take a good look at what you have done to the character of the cold and aloof swordsman. ?
Ning Mingmei: "This is the truth. The more aloof a gifted child is, the more he plays around in private. That's how it is in a prestigious school... Stop being angry."
It can be seen that if the spiritual body had hair, Ning Mingmei would have been electrocuted into an afro.
On the surface, the purple-clothed man just smiled: "Really? Exciting... Yaochuan City is not short of exciting things."
He was about to continue speaking when a clear bell rang out.
The masked man's mouth curled up instantly. A figure in purple came towards him coquettishly, "Brother!"
The girl leaned on his shoulder and glanced at Ning Mingmei again: "Is this the new guest of Xiaojinlou?"
She was dressed in purple, delicate and pretty, with silver bells on her wrists and ankles. She tilted her head and looked at him curiously with her slightly purple eyes...
Ning Mingmei: "Looks very familiar."
The system said: "One of the original book's potential female protagonists."
Got it.
As we all know, in a qualified novel with a male protagonist, there are always saints, fairies, witches, and demon women. If Bai Ruoru is the heroine in this book and Ye Xuefei is the fairy in this book, then this girl named "Adai" is the little witch in this book.
The little witch has the characteristics of being free-spirited, loved by her family, willful and beautiful, cruel and ruthless, but also deeply in love.
"Adai" in the original book is such a little vixen. After falling in love with the original male protagonist at first sight, she began her "persistent" career.
Ning Mingmei didn't remember Adai's abilities, life experience and ending very clearly, but he remembered that this girl was lively and romantic but capricious, and when she acted, she always showed the cruelty and ruthlessness unique to naive people. Even Ye Xuefei almost died tragically at her hands.
The male protagonist is born without understanding love, but is good at using people. She is one of the good knives used by the male protagonist to eliminate dissidents.
The masked man exchanged a few words with Ada. It's nothing more than "Where did my sister go to play?" or something like that. Although Ada replied a few words, her eyes were fixed on Ning Mingmei.
That look gave the system a chill.
System: "She is one of the heroines, and you are a cannon fodder master. She is not planning to get rid of you in advance, is she? I warn you, the little demon girl is very capricious. Sometimes she will kill someone just because she wants to."
Ning Mingmei only had one question to express his concern: "In other words, she didn't even receive nine years of compulsory education?"
The masked man said to Ning Mingmei, "Excuse me, Immortal. This is my younger sister A'dai. She has always been by my side and has a simple and romantic personality."
"Hello, Immortal!" The girl smiled at Ning Mingmei, revealing her white teeth under her open red lips. "What's your name, Immortal?"
Ning Mingmei: "My last name is Mei."
The girl asked, "Has Mei Xianchang just arrived in Yaochuan City?"
Lin Heting saw two newcomers coming and stood in front of Ning Mingmei: "We have been here for several days."
The girl narrowed her eyes and smiled, her eyes were innocent but cold: "Who told you to stand in front of Mei Xianchang? I'm not asking you. How annoying."
Lin Heting: "This..."
The masked man said, "I'm so sorry. My sister is a bit naive and straightforward, and she never pays attention to details."
...This is not being careless, this is being uncultured! Lin Heting kept complaining in his heart.
Ning Mingmei said, "Really? But we are guests after all. Although Xiao He is a disciple, his cultivation and age are both higher than your sister's. So this is the way Yaochuan City treats guests."
...So tough? The system was shocked.
Ning Mingmei: "If you don't protect your disciples outside, your prestige will be gone. Who will work hard for you... to do academic research? Besides, I am very optimistic about Lin Heting's surplus value."
Lin Heting was indeed very moved.
The servant behind him was very scared when he heard this, and his body trembled slightly. No one knew his young lady's unpredictable personality better than him.
Especially when he saw the girl getting off her brother.
"I'm sorry, I was too impatient." The girl said, "Then I'll apologize to Brother He. I'm sorry, Brother He."
A beautiful girl walked towards them. Although Lin Heting blushed, he instinctively felt a creepy nervousness in his heart.
The servants were just as nervous as he was.
Although this is Yaochuan City, it is the base of Xiaojinlou. But these generous guests from the Qingji Sect are not easy to deal with. The attendant was so nervous that he couldn't even speak. He just secretly pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist...
Only Ning Mingmei remains unmoved.
The system said: "Why are you so calm?"
It's almost nervous to death. If the system had legs, it would definitely take Ning Mingmei away with it.
Ning Mingmei said, "If you can't win, just lie down. This is a good time for me to experiment with what I've just learned."
system:……
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the girl walked up to Ning Mingmei and raised her little face. At that moment, the attendant thought that she would take out her usual weapon again.
But this time she lowered her head and sniffed the corner of Ning Mingmei's clothes.
"My Lord, you smell so good." she said.
