Chapter 150 149. Mei'er is reluctant to leave such a happy life? Beat Wei Youqing Qiufeng! (Please subscribe to the monthly ticket!)
Ning Mu didn't say much, just told Liuli's background.

"Eight hundred..."

Gu Qi Zhang and others were so shocked that they were speechless.

Liuli raised her eyebrows and glared at Ning Mu.

This bastard actually brought up the name of his master to show off his power!
If my master knew about this, I don't know how he would blame me...

But it has all been said, and there is no point in blaming others.

Liuli could only purse her lips and pretend to be a peerless master, holding a whisk and standing to one side.

After Gu Qi Zhang was stunned, a look of joy appeared on his face.

But soon, he looked at his grandfather with embarrassment again.

He was worried that his grandfather would have some resentment in his heart. After all, his grandfather was one of the heroes on Ningyang Mountain in the past.

He probably wouldn't like going up the mountain because of the memories of past grudges.

"Then let's go up the mountain!"

"That's great, let's go back and take a look!"

Old Master Gu struck his cane with his hammer and made the final decision, but his voice was filled with memories of the past and desolation.

Next.

The Gu family and the few men Ning Mu brought with him were busy packing up their things without stopping.

"Old Gu, are you guys leaving?"

At this time, the owner of a nearby inn was standing at the door, looking around and greeting people.

"Well, Lao Liao, you guys just wish yourself the best. I'm going up the mountain to enjoy life with the girl from the Tong family, haha~"

Mr. Gu did not hide it.

With so many people going up the mountain, it’s impossible to keep it secret, so it’s better to be open and honest.

"It's better to go. What a miserable world this is..." The innkeeper shook his head and returned to his shop dejectedly.

"This is Liao Dapeng, the owner of the Qingfeng Inn next door. He is a spy stationed in the town by the Qingfeng Village of Feihu Mountain. He has long wanted to retire, but the boy in his family is a small boss in the village, so he has no way to retreat. He has no choice..." Old Master Gu explained to Ning Mu.

Ning Mu nodded and took it to heart.

After cleaning up.

The group set off.

Liuli went ahead and asked the village to send someone down to pick them up.

in the afternoon.

At the beginning of Shen Shi.

Return to the village and start settling down.

just.

Ning Mu and others had just returned.

The patrol team leader, Wang Dalong, a former disciple of Cangjian Villa, reported that a lost woman was caught in the mountains.

"Boss, that woman was dishevelled and had blood on her clothes. She didn't look like a decent girl. But she didn't attack us. Instead, she followed us into the mountain obediently."

After listening to Wang Dalong's report, Ning Mu looked suspicious and followed him out of the hall.

Now, under the implementation of Liu Qingmei, the structure of the mountain village is relatively complete. The leaders of each team are mostly former disciples of Cangjian Villa, and the members are talented and strong fighters selected from the villagers.

After leaving the temple, he stood in front of the guardrail of the small square outside the temple.

It was seen at the entrance of the parade ground gate.

The woman was looking around the village, and when she noticed Ning Mu and Liu Qingmei walking out of the hall, she immediately looked over there.

"Bring it here!" Ning Mu said to Wang Dalong.

"Yes!"

Wang Dalong immediately waved his hand, and two patrol members, one on the left and one on the right, stood on guard against the woman.

Soon, they came closer.

"Who are you?"

Ning Mu stared at Wei Youqing, looked him up and down, and asked.

Wei Youqing did not reveal his identity, but looked at Ning Mu carefully and said, "Are you the leader of Ningyang Village?"

"It's me." Ning Mu nodded.

Wei Youqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and said excitedly: "I'm glad it's you, I finally found the right place!"

Ning Mu looked confused. Who is this woman?
Judging from the tone of his voice, he came here specifically to see me?
He couldn't help but look at Liu Qingmei, who also shook her head in confusion.

Without waiting for Ning Mu to ask.

At this time.

Wei Youqing dusted off his clothes, looked at Ning Mu and said, "Wen Qi came up the mountain yesterday. He was looking for you, right?"

The words fell.

Ning Mu frowned slightly, and Liu Qingmei's expression was also solemn.

After observing the expressions of the two people, Wei Youqing raised his brows and smiled.

Then, with a serious face, he clasped his fists and bowed, saying: "I am Wei Youqing, the instructor of the Jixia Academy, the Holy Land of the Great Qi Nation, and a disciple of the Master. I have come to your camp to invite you to practice in the academy!"

Hey!
After hearing this series of self-introductions, Liu Qingmei's eyes suddenly lit up.

Master's disciples.

The Jixia Academy’s chief academic officer is so young, and although he is only in charge of teaching, he is also one of the best in the academy!

Liu Qingmei was immediately moved and turned to look at Ning Mu.

just.

Ning Mu raised his eyebrows, looked at Wei Youqing, and smiled calmly: "I'm sorry, Miss Wei, you may have seen it wrong, I don't see any literary style."

Liu Qingmei was stunned and looked at him blankly.

But when she noticed the look Ning Mu gave her, she immediately nodded to Wei Youqing firmly.

"Yes, I didn't notice any literary energy coming. Did Miss Wei find the wrong place?"

???

Now it was Wei Youqing's turn to be shocked.

Found the wrong one?
impossible!

Pi Yalu clearly said that the author of the poem "One Sword Frosts Fourteen States" was a young man named Ning Mu, who lived in Ningyang Mountain.

Immediately, Wei Youqing stared at Ning Mu and asked, "Brother, is your name Ning Mu?"

"My name is Ning Mu, but I don't see any literary aura!" Ning Mu nodded.

"impossible!"

Wei Youqing suddenly became a little anxious. Although he was confident, his brows were filled with uncertainty.

In order to find the person with the seven-colored eyes and the protection of literary energy, she chased all the way.

But after all, its speed could not match the flash of literary energy.

We can only judge based on the location provided by Piyalu and the approximate direction where Wenqi last appeared.

With her strength, she could have arrived there yesterday evening if she had tried her best.

It was because I lost the guidance of Wen Qi that I got lost in the mountains.

I accidentally entered a mountain not far from here, a village called Heifengzhai.

I had not planned to stay too long, but the people in the Black Wind Village acted as if they had not seen a woman for eight hundred years. When they saw me appear, the whole village became restless.

The village chief also brought people to surround him, flirting with him with words, and even trying to make a move on him.

Why did he let me stay there as a concubine?

She was anxious to begin with.

He watched his literary energy disappear while he was surrounded by a group of scoundrels.

In a rage, she slaughtered the entire Black Wind Village!

Of course, the small fish and shrimp were let go.

After replenishing her strength in Heifeng Village and finding out the exact location of Ningyang Mountain, she set off again.

I groped around in the mountains for another half a day.

It was not until this time that the real culprit was finally found.

But now, the real owner told her that he was not blessed by the literary spirit?
How can this be?

After a moment of shock, Wei Youqing suddenly remembered a way to test literary spirit.

Immediately, Wei Youqing's expression changed, revealing a gentle and warm smile. He looked at Ning Mu and said, "Mr. Ning, I came here in a hurry, and I am exhausted. Since you insist, can you allow me to stay in the village for a while to recuperate? After I have enough strength, I will leave and look for the person who has been blessed by the spirit of literature. How do you think?"

"Mr. Ning, you won't even satisfy this little request of mine, right?"

Wei Youqing blinked and pretended to look pitiful.

Combined with her blood-stained clothes and disheveled expression, there is indeed some flavor to it.

She was puzzled.

If other people could get the protection of the Sage of Literature and have the seven colors of literature in his eyes, I'm afraid they would want to spread the news so that everyone in the world would know.

Why is this person in front of me so taboo!

You must know that in the territory of Da Qi, and even on the borders of the neighboring Chu and Zhou states, countless scholars and practitioners all regard entering the Jixia Academy to practice as their lifelong goal!

There are countless visitors to the academy every day.

In order to deal with those who do not meet the qualification requirements but take the trouble to come to the academy to seek study, the academy has even set up a special learning encouragement department and arranged dozens of disciples to rotate just to deal with those who come to seek study.

Ning Mu is probably the first person in the world who keeps his distance from the academy and avoids it as much as possible!
This made Wei Youqing even more curious.

She wanted to see what this young man was afraid of, why he would rather give up his bright future and stay in seclusion in this remote corner of the mountain!
Liu Qingmei immediately became alert.

Ning Mu frowned slightly.

The chief priest of the Jixia Academy was determined to make himself recognized and join the academy.

"It's not that it's impossible, but my village was established only a few days ago, and most of the people in the village are disaster victims who have come here for refuge. There are hundreds of mouths waiting to be fed. As you know, the daily expenses are very high..." Ning Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Youqing.

Wei Youqing was stunned.

However, after seeing Ning Mu's eyes, he immediately understood.

I suddenly felt very angry.

Do you still need to charge?

She was speechless, but nodded along with the topic and said, "Mr. Ning, what you did is a good thing. Since the funds are insufficient, Wei, on behalf of the academy, will donate 500 taels to show your kindness. It can also be regarded as Wei's food expenses in the mountain village. How do you think?"

As she spoke, she reached into her sleeve pocket and pulled out a stack of banknotes.

Ning Mu originally planned to agree, but since things had come to this point and the other party wanted to stay, there was nothing he could do. He couldn't just rush down the mountain, as that would offend the Jixia Academy!

But when he noticed the number of silver bills in Wei Youqing's hand, he immediately coughed lightly.

"Miss Wei, you don't know that this place is high in the mountains and far in the water. All food has to be carried by manpower. Even so, it's still a bit difficult to make ends meet. Compared with the mountains below, the cost of living has increased by dozens of times. It's not that Ning is ruthless, but really... ahem, it's hard to get by!"

Ning Mu sighed again, pretending to be heartbroken. Hearing this, Wei Youqing, who was counting the banknotes, changed his expression slightly.

She had just come up from the foot of the mountain, so she naturally knew how rugged the mountain road was and how difficult it was to supply supplies.

After a moment's hesitation, she counted out another stack of taels and said, "Then Wei will donate an extra 500 taels, so the total will be 1,000 taels!"

"Well, Miss Wei, you don't know that our village is currently building a road to facilitate going up and down the mountain. Once the mountain road is unblocked, the supply of materials will be smooth, but... due to various restrictions, the progress of the road construction is still slow, mainly because the food, drink, and clothing supplies cannot keep up..."

"..."

Wei Youqing was suddenly speechless.

She was very smart and knew at this moment that the leader of the Ning Village was trying to take advantage of her!
"Okay, okay, okay. I only have 1,600 taels of silver notes and some change on me. I'll give them all to you. Just consider it as my food. How about this?" Wei Youqing was helpless and too lazy to count them. He just stuffed the stack of silver notes in his hand into Ning Mu's hand.

"How could this happen!"

"Then I will be disrespectful to refuse and thank the academy for its generosity on behalf of the victims. It is not what I want, but the current situation is indeed difficult and dangerous. Miss Wei, you have seen it!"

"But... for hundreds of disaster victims, this amount of money is really a drop in the bucket, right Mei'er?"

Ning Mu didn't hesitate and put all the change and banknotes into his pocket.

But as he spoke, his expression suddenly became embarrassed, and he even pulled Liu Qingmei into it.

"Ah..." Liu Qingmei was stunned. She felt that this was a bit too much, but she didn't want to disobey her husband, so she nodded timidly and said awkwardly, "Yes, that's right!"

"I'm really gone!" Wei Youqing was speechless.

Of course she noticed that, except for a very small number of people in this mountain village, most of the others looked skinny and weak, and they did not look like martial artists at first glance.

Especially in the area behind the mountain, you can vaguely see through the forest that there are a large number of people and horses reclaiming the mountain land.

This is the first time that a bandit stronghold has reclaimed the land on its own.

When Wei Youqing heard that they were disaster victims seeking refuge, he finally understood.

This is also the reason why she was willing to pay the money even though she knew she was being ripped off.

But she wasn't rich either.

The students in the academy didn't have much monthly salary, and this one thousand six hundred taels was the extra money she had saved.

Now, in order to recruit Ning Mu into the Jixia Academy, all of them were taken out.

There is not even a tael of silver on his body.

Ning Mu didn't say anything, but his eyes were fixed on Wei Youqing's slender white fingers.

Noticed Ning Mu's eyes.

Wei Youqing lowered his head and looked at the gold and jade ring on his finger.

"This won't work!"

She immediately refused, saying, "This is the identity certificate issued by the academy to the chief priest. If it is lost, the academy will be held accountable!"

Wei Youqing's expression suddenly changed and he frowned.

Seeing that Ning Mu was unmoved, she was very angry, but she had to give in.

After thinking for a while, he said, "How about this? I'll write a letter and ask someone to send money over, and then give you another two thousand taels. Is that enough? I can't give you any more!"

This guy is digging a hole for himself.

But I can't refuse!

If you refuse to donate.

You never know when you might hear a rumor that the chief academician of the Jixia Academy turned a deaf ear to the victims of the disaster.

of course.

She could also see that this was just Ning Mu's way of preventing her from staying in the mountain.

But the more so.

The more it stimulated her rebellious mentality and she wanted to stay and persuade Ning Mu to join the Jixia Academy to practice!

"Okay then. In that case, I would like to thank Wei Jijiu for his generosity. Jijiu can stay as long as he wants. As for the place to live... just pick an empty house in the back mountain. As for food, Jijiu can choose to eat with the victims, or cook for himself. If he cooks for himself, come to me or the Third Master to ask for food, and I will approve it."

Seeing that Wei Youqing was determined to stay, Ning Mu had no choice but to nod and agree.

"A...note?" Wei Youqing blinked, a little confused.

"It's the approval letter. We strictly control grain. All expenses are recorded in the book. Extra food needs a slip to be collected from the warehouse." Liu Qingmei explained.

Supplies are scarce now, so we have to use them urgently.

Wei Youqing then nodded in understanding.

This village seems to be newly established, but the rules are quite serious.

She pondered in her mind.

"Dalong, take Miss Wei to pick a house!"

Ning Mu shouted to Wang Dalong who was waiting below.

Then he turned his head to look at Wei Youqing and said, "Master, please send someone to deliver the money earlier. It's really difficult to make a living, you know!"

Ning Mu winked at Wei Youqing and made an embarrassed expression.

Wei Youqing's eyes trembled and he was speechless.

……

"My husband, are you really not going to the academy?"

After Wei Youqing left, Liu Qingmei couldn't help but asked again.

Deep down in her heart, she still hoped that Ning Mu could enter the academy to practice.

After all, it is the holy land of Da Qi martial arts and the sect that protects the country.

It was also her ideal when she was young.

Such a giant is naturally countless times better than the barren land of Ningyang Mountain.

Apart from anything else, the cultivation resources alone are incomparable to those of ordinary sects.

Ordinary sects, such as the martial arts clan Cangjian Villa, can only own a mere ten acres of Dragon Rhythm Spirit Field.

If distributed to each disciple, the average amount per person per year would probably be less than one kilogram.

This is just an idealized state.

After all, the real bulk of the resources are occupied by the direct descendants of the Ye family, followed by the core disciples. When it comes to ordinary disciples, they may only be able to have a small meal during the critical period of breaking through the realm.

But the Jixia Academy was different.

As the martial arts holy land of Da Qi, it has real high-end combat power.

The number of Longyun Lingtian under the jurisdiction of the Jixia Academy is no less than a thousand acres.

This is just what has been announced to the public.

In fact, I'm afraid it's more than doubled.

I heard that people with a status like Wei Youqing, a chief priest, could receive hundreds of kilograms of various cultivation supplies every month.

One person's monthly output may be equivalent to that of some small martial arts forces in a year.

With such a huge amount of spiritual cultivation materials piled up, even a pig can have a decent cultivation level, not to mention that those who can enter the Jixia Academy are all extremely talented!

How can this small and barren Ningyang Mountain compare with such a holy place of academy?

Therefore, Liu Qingmei absolutely agreed and hoped that Ning Mu would join the Jixia Academy.

The second floor of the main hall.

"Oh, my husband, it's so thick and strong, the higher you look up, the harder you drill..."

"My eyebrows are almost exposed!"

Looking at Wei Youqing's back as he followed Wang Dalong towards the back mountain in the distance, Liu Qingmei leaned on the guardrail, supporting her body with her hands, and subconsciously let out a light hum.

Then, her face became pretty and bright, and her eyes were sparkling and affectionate.

"Mei'er, in this world, if I enter the academy, I will be tied up with many things, and many things will be inconvenient or impossible to do!"

Standing behind Liu Qingmei, holding her slender waist with both hands, he explained in detail in her ear with slight whispers.

"Just like now, if Mei'er wants to, but I'm in the academy, how can you and I feel so happy?"

Ning Mu showed an evil smile.

As his words fell.

With a sudden force.

All of a sudden.

"uh-huh!"

Liu Qingmei's body rushed forward, her eyes suddenly turned white, and her bright and pretty face was like the scorching sun.

The scarlet lips were bitten by the pure white teeth.

Afraid of making a sound.

This moment.

Liu Qingmei felt as if she had lost all her soul.

The sudden and violent pressure made her heart tremble.

A pair of white pieces followed the offensive and pressed against the guardrail.

She struggled to suppress her voice, only a faint, long cry emanated.

A long while passed.

"call……"

Liu Qingmei exhaled softly, finally recovering from this overflowing feeling. Her eyes sparkled, her face was extremely beautiful, and she snorted softly, "Everything is up to my husband!"

"Ah~ my husband is right!"

"My husband, um, he is a man of heaven. He has reached the Inner Ying realm in just a few months. Wuwu~ The Inner Ying realm, with such talent, Siha... why should he be a slave and join that rotten academy to read people's faces, oh~ Look, read people's faces, or, it's better to be free and easy in the mountains!"

Liu Qingmei tilted her neck back slightly, her eyes blurred, and spoke intermittently.

Looking at Liu Qingmei's delicate and charming look.

Ning Mu couldn't help but feel the urge to conquer.

He smiled evilly, lying on Liu Qingmei's back, leaning over and whispering: "Mei'er, do you really feel this way, or are you reluctant to be so happy?"

Liu Qingmei couldn't help but tremble, and subconsciously a whimpering sound came from her throat.

Her beautiful eyes, as if filled with peach blossoms in a spring lake, were even more clear and rippling, and she closed them tightly in embarrassment.

especially.

Feeling the pair of fiery hands, they suddenly grabbed Ye Yin's grain bag and squeezed it together with the guardrail, making it into a pancake or a ball.

Overflowing from fingers.

In this open space on the second floor.

The maids passing by in the small square outside the palace could easily discover her appearance at this moment by looking up casually, and she couldn't help but feel an indescribable palpitation in her heart.

At this moment, she is as calm as a dandy!
