Chapter 302 After the Year
Ning Mingmei squatted under the tree and checked the spiritual energy collection equipment. While he was checking, a small four-legged robot dog came running back.
There is also a mushroom on its head.
"Dad, Gouzi has checked the equipment. All the equipment is running well and there is no malfunction." Mushroom said abruptly.
Ning Mingmei: "Well, be good, go play somewhere else."
The mushroom grumbled a few words. The robot dog carried it towards Mustang College. Ning Mingmei looked at the spiritual energy collection equipment and thought that it would not be long before he could return to Qingji Sect.
Ning Mingmei walked behind, while Mushroom Friday and the robot dog led the way in front. Purple Mushroom was very happy to be able to walk with Ning Mingmei, and swayed on the mechanical dog's head.
To be honest, although Ning Mingmei had been through many battles, he was still very shocked when the little purple mushroom suddenly called him daddy. You have to know that there is no living thing on Spark Island, but life still goes on. So for a long time, Ning Mingmei used the feng shui of Spark Island to make some small modifications to the mushrooms whenever he had nothing to do. He originally wanted to cultivate a mushroom that could climb mountains, dive into the sea and explore. However, who knew that the mushroom did mutate, but it turned out to be useless. Apart from calling daddy and talking babble, it could do nothing else.
And it can only hop when it walks. Ning Mingmei thought it walked too slowly, so he asked it to ride on a mechanical dog that he made using scraps.
"Dad, I read a few books today."
Ning Mingmei: "Well, dear, what book did you read?"
Successful. It looks like Friday will be able to help him with numerical calculations soon.
Mushroom: "Dad, I read in a book that it is mother who can give life, not father. It was father who gave me life, so I should call father mother."
We shouldn't have any hope for the intelligence of mushrooms. Ning Mingmei pushed open the door of Yema Academy and said, "I am a man, you should call me dad, not mom."
Mushroom: "Okay, Dad. I can also produce spores, I also have life, I think I am a girl, what do you think, Dad?"
Ning Mingmei: "Okay, you are a girl today. You can be a girl tomorrow too."
It seems that the IQ of mushrooms is still problematic. What should I do now? The mechanical dog moved very lightly along the way and did not disturb the dead on the road at all. Seeing Ning Mingmei arrive at the office building, Mushroom said, "Dad, do you want to call Qingji Sect?"
Ning Mingmei: “Yeah.”
Mushroom said, "Dad, I also want to enter the Qingji Sect. Is it true that only the smartest people in the world can enter the Qingji Sect? Can Mushroom enter the Qingji Sect?"
Ning Mingmei remained calm and sat down on the chair: "With me here, you will definitely be able to enter the Qingji Sect."
As the saying goes, even if the dean or professor's child is a mushroom, he can enter the Qingji Sect, after all, it will have a lot of extra points for innovative papers. Mushroom became happy, but soon became a little frustrated: "Dad, you said before that I couldn't understand derivatives and integrals. What if I can't keep up when I enter Qingji Sect?"
Ning Mingmei replied casually, "It's okay. I have a lot of doctoral students under me. I'll ask them to help you with your elementary school and middle school homework and help you publish your thesis. They will also pick you up after school."
Haha, isn’t this what graduate students use it for?
Mushroom became happy again and started jumping around the office. Ning Mingmei dialed the number while looking at it, thinking that when he was about to go to college, he would let Mushroom become a gymnastics specialty student. As we all know, students with special talents in gymnastics can reach the Qingji Sect. Moreover, the mushrooms come from Xinghuo Island, which is a remote area at any rate, so the unified examination score should be very low.
The call was connected. The person who answered the phone was Baimian. Bai Mian's first words were: "Mingmei, six months have passed."
Ning Mingmei: "Well, it took some time to check the equipment. The good news is that it won't be long before I can accumulate enough energy."
Baimian: "Okay, we will report the current situation to you."
The first priority was a call from Ning Mingmei. Soon, the Qingji Sect's meeting room was filled with people. They reported the progress of the projects to Ning Mingmei one by one, from academia to industry to politics. Now, even if Ning Mingmei is not here, everything is under his control.
In the blink of an eye, one hundred and fifty years have passed. However, even though Ning Mingmei was not in Piaomiao Peak or in the fairyland, the Elders' Council was unable to take even a piece of meat from Ning Mingmei. Not only that, but Piaomiao Peak, which had lost Ning Mingmei himself, had become the largest interest group in the world of immortal cultivation. Their various actions towards Ning Mingmei only intensified the conflict, and even people from other sects joined in the fight against Ning Mingmei's side.
Because the younger generation like Lu Mengqing have long been fed up with begging for food from the supreme elders. They could have endured the darkness—if they had never seen the sun. The outbreak of the war made them even more fed up with the power struggles among the Supreme Elders. At this point, even though Ning Mingmei's relationship with the furnace had become an unspoken secret, and the incident at Changle Gate a hundred years ago had become a confusing secret, the elders suddenly realized that to everyone in the Six Realms, Ning Mingmei was no longer himself - but a leader, a symbol.
Ning Mingmei has too many interests involved. Everyone knows that a thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by a single ant, and a single move can affect the entire body, so no one and no interest group will let Ning Mingmei fall.
Therefore, the only thing that may affect Ning Mingmei now is his background.
——As the nephew of Jiang Duo, his background is related to the demon concubine and the witch.
But all those who knew about it remained silent, which was rare.
There is no need to mention the Buddhist disciples of Baopu Temple and Bai Ruoru. What the disabled but strong-willed Jiang Duo is planning remains to be verified. I don't know where he went. Just like how Jiang Ying had deliberately let Ning Mingmei off at Changle Gate, she would never bring up this matter in front of anyone, something that would only harm her and not benefit her.
What surprised Ning Mingmei was that Fang Wuyu remained silent on this.
During these one hundred and twenty years, Fang Wuyu actually locked himself in Baiyun Peak and never went out unless it was important. He always practiced in seclusion, and even his daily life became simple. Lin Heting once mentioned Fang Wuyu in a report. He said that he saw Master Fang Feng in the crowd at the Qingji Sect's New Year's Eve party. He was forcibly pulled out by Bai Ruoru and Yin Xisheng and sat on one side.
The whole evening was filled with flowers and feasting. He sat in the bustling and prosperous place that he was most familiar with in the past, with a dull and expressionless look.
"Someone from the Elders' Council discovered something was wrong with Master Fang Feng, and sent someone to contact him, but Master Fang Feng sent someone to beat him out."
"That's good." Ning Mingmei said.
Even if Fang Wu Yu became his enemy, it didn't mean that he was willing to be a dog for the Elders Council. People like him have always been arrogant, both in the past and now. He had changed once because of Ning Mingmei and his disciples. As for what conclusion he would come to this time, Ning Mingmei could not predict.
But as long as he doesn't speak, he's fine.
After everyone finished their reports, the next step was the academic aspect. Now the academic leaders of the front peak of Piaomiao Peak have become Liang Pingzhou and Jiang Jianyue. 150 years have passed, and they have long graduated and are able to work on their own, but they have given up their prospects of making a name for themselves and have chosen to stay in school.
“Before Master comes back, we must guard this piece of land well,” they said.
Just like Ren Miao was responsible for Ning Mingmei's accounting, and the cool guy Yang Xiao stayed in school to be responsible for the security of Piaomiao Peak, they guarded this home for Ning Mingmei when he left.
However, although the nominal bosses of Piao Miao Peak include Lao Shi, Lao Twelve, Lao Fifteen, Liang Pingzhou, Jiang Jianyue and others, the current academic star of Piao Miao Peak is, of course...
"Lian Chengyue's graduation has been delayed for 100 years."
After being put in solitary confinement for 30 years, Lian Chengyue just came out of the cliff of remorse and began to publish papers madly using the accumulation of 30 years. His cultivation had also soared to the terrifying Nascent Soul stage. He had already met the graduation standards for Piaomiao Peak's doctorate and could become a postdoctoral fellow.
In a small sect, Lian Chengyue could have become an elder and obtained a tenured teaching position. And based on Ning Mingmei's understanding of Lian Chengyue, he must have hidden his cultivation level. His true cultivation level now may have reached the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
However……
Lian Chengyue: "Master, if you don't pick the tassels for me personally, I don't want to graduate."
Ning Mingmei picked out this sentence from Lian Chengyue's weekly diary, which included "What did I eat today" and "What I saw and heard in Qingji Sect today". Ning Mingmei, who had just been appointed as the first author of Lian Chengyue's new paper, only replied to this email.
"How can you graduate as a second-class writer? Keep studying."
Lian Chengyue quickly replied: "Thank you, Master."
During the 150 years that he was trapped on Spark Island, Ning Mingmei himself was still a little worried. Although he had accumulated a lot of big ones on Xinghuo Island, he had to wait until he got out before he could complete the control experiment and publish the paper. So, will the number of Ning Mingmei's papers and citations decline significantly in the past 150 years? !
Fortunately, Lian Chengyue is really useful. He alone provided half of Qingji Sect's output value. Not only did he do academic work himself, he also helped his younger classmates with their academic work, working day and night without a break, and provided Ning Mingmei with a large number of first works.
Taking Lian Chengyue's authors into consideration, Ning Mingmei decided to forgive him for using other aliases to cause trouble in other circles over the years, and still call him a full-time doctor instead of a part-time doctor. Now that Ning Mingmei has Friday, he is considering asking Lian Chengyue to move his ranking back a little bit. In the future, Ning Mingmei will be the first author, Ning Mingmei's daughter will be the second author, and Lian Chengyue, who is actually doing academic research, will be the third author, which will give Lian Chengyue a little shock in the academic community.
As we all know, scholarship and second writing can be inherited through blood.
Therefore, even though Lian Chengyue could have graduated a hundred years ago, Ning Mingmei still forcefully went through all the formalities. Lian Chengyue was very happy about this. He said, “Sure enough, Master is full of need for me.”
Ning Mingmei: "You are a correspondence student and you want to graduate so early? You can only dream about it."
In addition to Lianchengyue, Huapaofu also provides high production value. But facing Hua Puff, Ning Mingmei couldn't bear to bully the kitten. Considering that he didn't do any work, he just took half of it and left with dignity. Over the past one hundred and fifty years, Hua Puff has smuggled countless cat people out of the Sky Fox Clan and fled to the Qingji Sect to work as physical or academic laborers. Among them, the small bosses of Piaomiao Peak recruit the most cat people. So much so that Bai Bugui, who also delayed his graduation, often complained that these cat students liked to share an apartment in a high density in order to save money, and the small pine forest was now filled with cat hair everywhere.
