Chapter 157 Loss of Assets
Ning Mingmei and Sect Leader Qi?
The vague image of Sect Leader Qi flashed through his mind for a moment.
Lian Chengyue didn’t quite understand why she felt such strong vigilance and disgust when she heard Qi Miancheng’s name.
While others were packing up, Lian Chengyue asked Lian Xiao, "Sister Lian Xiao."
"Um?"
"Did something happen between Elder Ning and Sect Leader Qi?"
He asked questions with a sincere attitude and humble expression, and even the most picky person could not find any fault with him.
Lian Xiao said: "You didn't know? That's right, after all..."
She glanced at the person next to her and whispered a few words into Lian Chengyue's ear.
"This...is impossible." She heard Lian Chengyue say.
"How is it impossible? Everyone heard Qi Miancheng say at the dinner table that 'his junior brother couldn't get out of bed in the guest room'. One is the leader of Qingji Sect and the other is the leader of Piaomiao Peak. They usually look serious and formal in white clothes. Who knows what they do in private. The more these high-class girls who look cold and upright, the more fun they have in private." Lian Xiao sneered, "Moreover, these two, a senior brother and a junior brother, have been together in Qingji Sect for many years. Young people are full of blood and energy. Maybe they were... Tsk, who knows! I think this Elder Ning was able to get to the top only because of his senior brother!"
As she said this, she found Lian Chengyue's expression a little strange. The young man clenched his fists tightly, as if he wanted to crush his own joints.
Unfortunately, he lowered his head and Lian Xiao couldn't see his expression.
"My father told me that this is an internal matter of the Qingji Sect. It's enough for my family to know about it. It can't be spread to outsiders." Lian Xiao finally reminded me, "It's enough for you and me to know about it. Tsk, the things in this world... you can only know a person's face but not his heart."
She left after saying this. After a moment, the Ringwraith said, "Boy, I have never seen you so emotional. What happened between Ning Mingmei and Sect Leader Qi actually made you so...?"
Lian Chengyue said: "This is Lian Xiao's conspiracy."
These words were spoken quickly, interrupting the Ringwraith's words. The two have been bound together for many years, but this is the first time that the Ringwraith has seen Lian Chengyue being so rude.
Ringwraith: "But why did she plot to deceive you?"
Lian Chengyue: "To make me emotional."
Ringwraith: "...Where's the evidence?"
Lian Chengyue: "I am very excited at the moment, and this is the evidence."
...How can anyone use the results to explain the reasons!
Lian Chengyue: "No matter what, we can't jump to conclusions on this matter. Moreover, the words of that old man Qi Miancheng are not credible at all."
There is a logical contradiction in what you said.
Lian Chengyue: "With Immortal Ning's ability and demeanor, if he wants to become the best in the world of immortal cultivation, why would he need Qi Miancheng's assistance?"
The Ringwraith was stunned for a long time, and finally he figured out something.
Lian Chengyue once suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Ning Mingmei. Even now, nine years later, he is able to manipulate the Lian family and the Lingfeng Sect at will, but his carefully designed conspiracy can be seen through by Ning Mingmei at a glance.
It is precisely for this reason that someone as proud and arrogant as him would never admit that he was defeated by an ordinary person. What's more, Ning Mingmei is indeed so powerful.
But from Lian Chengyue's perspective, he regards Ning Mingmei as a benchmark in the fairy world. Over the long years, he will only continue to strengthen his understanding of Ning Mingmei and keep chasing after him.
until……
The Ringwraith glanced at Lian Chengyue and suddenly found that the boy's eyes were dark.
...until he can defeat Ning Mingmei.
When that time comes, what will Lian Chengyue want to do?
Ringwraith: "But Qi Miancheng has already said so. Besides, the two are not contradictory. What if they are willing to do this?"
…
"What was that sound just now?" Lian Chun muttered as he left the clinic, "Wait, the chair..."
"Why is the armrest of this chair cracked?"
…
The people in Qingji Sect knew nothing about what was going on in the clinic. In the evening of the next day, Ning Mingmei received the invitation to the Lingfeng Sect's birthday banquet as he wished.
At the same time, we also received news brought by Lao Wuxin.
Yesterday, the peddler and his family were escorted out of Xiangyang City by Lao Wu. Following the official road they passed, they arrived at the jurisdiction of Baichuan Caotang in a few days. By that time, no matter how much the Lian family and the Lingfeng sect hate them, they will be powerless to do anything.
Perhaps out of gratitude for Lao Wu’s help, the vendor left another message for everyone.
"The method to change one's bones actually exists?"
The vendor said that Han Yan, the seventh disciple of the current leader of Lingfeng Sect, was a beneficiary of this method. This person was originally the young master of the Han family in Xiangyang City. The Han family has been practicing Taoism for generations, but he is the one who has no chance to become an immortal. After the results of his bone structure test at the age of seven came out, he caused his mother to be ridiculed and ignored. The Han family believed that his poor aptitude was due to his mother's poor health.
But more than ten years ago, Han Yan suddenly won the first place in the recruitment of Lingfeng Sect, and entered Lingfeng Sect to practice Taoism as if he was reborn. The peddler still remembers the results of the test on his spiritual roots: he had the dual spiritual roots of gold and water.
But those who stood out in the Han family in the past were all cultivators with fire and wood spiritual roots. Metal and wood counteract each other, water and fire counteract each other. Moreover, the peddler vaguely remembered that when the young master was seven years old and had his physique tested, he heard people sigh and say that the young master of the Han family had mixed spiritual roots, that is, he had a little bit of each of the five spiritual roots, but not much. The only two that were more common were the fire spiritual root and the wood spiritual root. The cultivator who assisted in testing the root bones once suggested to the Han family that if they wanted to change Han Yan's physique, it would be best to start by increasing his fire and wood spiritual roots.
The monk also said that there used to be a method that allowed people without spiritual roots to practice, but unfortunately, this method has been lost!
The old monk sighed when he said this. However, the cultivator beside him corrected him immediately: "If something like that is gone, it is gone. Why sigh about it! If everyone can cultivate immortality, there will be chaos. Didn't the Liaoyuan Rebellion and the Demon Concubine Rebellion make you see this clearly?"
The old monk then shut up and never mentioned the matter again.
This speech left quite an impression on the peddler. Therefore, he was very puzzled by Han Yan's victory with his gold and water spiritual roots. Even if Han Yan improved his physique, he should have the fire and wood spiritual roots.
The peddler also said that a few days ago, the mother and daughter of the Wen family were desperate and tried all kinds of medical treatments, and often went to the temple on the mountain east of Xiangyang City to worship Buddha. One day, the two came back with happy looks on their faces. Mother Wen said, "We found a solution," but Wen Sihui kept her mouth shut and said nothing.
That was all the information the vendor had. In the past, he didn't dare tell Ning Mingmei and others about these things because he was afraid of getting into trouble.
Ning Mingmei thought for a moment, and asked Lao Wu and Mu Hanshan to stay in Xiangyang City and go to the east mountain to investigate.
Then, he turned to Ye Yufei who had just returned from outside: "Now, it's time to confess your extra mission."
Ye Yufei was out all day today and pursed her lips when she came back. When Ning Mingmei asked, she told him everything.
"Master asked me to come here, firstly, to help you find someone. Secondly, to secretly investigate the fact that no one from Xiangyang City has entered Qingji Sect in recent decades." Ye Yufei said.
“Is there a human factor involved?”
"I found the two Qingji Sect disciples who were supposed to be stationed here to recruit students in an inn. They had already arrived here half a month ago!" Ye Yufei said angrily, "But they just rested in the inn all day, living a life of drunkenness and dreams. I originally thought they were just slacking off, but after questioning them carefully, I found that things were not that simple."
Firstly, the entire Xiangyang City has now become the base of the Lingfeng Sect. In the past, if the disciples of Qingji Sect who came to recruit students performed their duties conscientiously, they would be beaten by the people of Lingfeng Sect. Their methods were despicable and left no traces. A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. The disciples of Qingji Sect suffered so much that they could not express their sorrow. Over time, they began to give in. In the first ten years or so, they occasionally went out to recruit disciples. Later, from a certain point on, the Lingfeng Sect increased its intensity in cracking down on the black sticks, and the disciples of the Qingji Sect simply stopped going out, and only went out to set up stalls on the first day and the last few days to deal with the matter.
After a certain moment... Ning Mingmei calculated and found that it was the year when Wen Siheng was recruited by Qingji Sect.
Wen Siheng is the King of Scrolls in Qingji Sect and can become the Senior Brother of Piaomiao Peak. This is of course inseparable from his outstanding talent. Wen Siheng is considered to be very talented in the Qingji Sect, let alone in Xiangyang City.
But Ning Mingmei didn't expect that the Lingfeng Sect would be so upset about missing out on Wen Siheng. The death of the old Taoist priest who recommended Wen Siheng to test his physique is even more terrifying.
Continuing to think in this direction... Could it be that the Lingfeng faction really knows nothing about the current situation of the Wen family mother and daughter?
Secondly, there are also some radical disciples of the Qingji Sect who are unwilling to be inferior to others and insist on competing with each other to see who is superior. But every time they took action, accidents always happened inside and outside Xiangyang City. Either a demon beast will appear, or an evil cultivator will cause chaos. Moreover, the attributes of these evil cultivators and magical beasts that are causing chaos always happen to restrain the attributes of the Qingji Sect's disciples.
These accidents always end up taking a sharp turn and turning into a mess. Whenever this happens, the Lingfeng Sect always appears at the right time to save the people from danger.
This method was not only used on the disciples of Qingji Sect who came to recruit students, but also on other cultivators passing through Xiangyang City, and even on some ordinary people or wealthy families who did not obey Lingfeng Sect.
Even in times when no one resisted and everyone submitted, the Lingfeng Sect would periodically release some monsters or evil cultivators to cause chaos, allowing them to kill some civilians, and then capture and punish them in public. Only in this way will the people be constantly reminded of the fear of losing the protection of the Lingfeng Sect, and will they be more obedient in relying on the Lingfeng Sect.
The Lingfeng Sect wants to make the people of Xiangyang City believe that the Lingfeng Sect is their only savior. Other monks who pass through Xiangyang City will only bring misfortune to the people of Xiangyang City.
That was why Chang Feichang's action at that time made the Lingfeng Sect so angry. But why would a murderous ghost appear near the Ge family's farm...
Ning Mingmei suddenly asked Mu Hanshan: "Your great uncle is Elder Ge of Lingfeng Sect. Has his relationship with Lingfeng Sect always been harmonious?"
Mu Hanshan was stunned for a moment, and said: "I'm not very clear. But I remember my grandfather once said that my uncle had some disputes with Elder Yang..."
So this is the truth of the matter. The murderous ghost appeared near the Ge family's farm, originally to kill the chicken to scare the monkey. However, the appearance of Mu Hanshan and Chang Feichang's attack were unexpected events that the Lingfeng Sect had not expected.
Later, the two parties may have reached an agreement. When Mu Hanshan reached adulthood and had outstanding talents, Elder Ge wanted to recruit his nephew into the Lingfeng faction to strengthen his own power. But Mu Hanshan drove a hundred miles alone and arrived at Shanyin City, a hundred miles away, and got the token to enter Qingji Sect.
No wonder Mu Hanshan always looked embarrassed when he mentioned his maternal grandfather's family and the past when he entered the Qingji Sect.
The third rule is based on the second rule. There haven't been many good talents in Xiangyang City in recent years, and some of them have been harvested early by the Lingfeng Sect. Under such circumstances, it was even more difficult for Qingji Sect to recruit students in Xiangyang City.
Three reasons reveal a shocking situation
Ye Yufei wanted to say something else. Ning Mingmei interrupted, "Enrollment is your responsibility. I came here to do only one thing. That is..."
Find ideological and political education!
Find a laboratory safety manager!
Find a ghostwriter for your paper!
Find someone to write your homework for you! (As a tutor, how could I possibly write the answers to the questions I assigned myself?)
Find a barber!
All of the above are Wen Siheng’s responsibilities!
Ning Mingmei: "Wen Siheng is such a talent. I give him 3,000 yuan a month. In ten years, I have invested 360,000 spiritual stones in him. What is the concept of 360,000 spiritual stones? But what has he given me in return now? One hundred and twenty haircuts? Seven articles? And that's it?"
"Do you think this is reasonable?"
The author has something to say:
Is that reasonable? Is that reasonable? Is that reasonable?
