Chapter 287 Angry
If you are not as skilled as others and want to keep your life, you have to admit defeat decisively and with a good attitude so as not to make others unhappy.
This point is basically the consensus of all cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation.
The Qingshen Sect’s patience in planning for many days paid off, as they captured quite a few prisoners.
Wei Wenxin was not affected by the maze. Relying on his quick, fierce and accurate guerrilla warfare, he captured many people that day.
Those who could have conflicts with her were basically people who were highly valued by various sects, and the ransom was naturally high.
The Mu family had no ill intentions in this regard, and what they gave her was even more than what Senior Xueying said that day.
When Wei Wenxin was collecting supplies, he remembered that he had not yet collected all the materials for refining. There were many things unique to the Qingshen Sect. If he did not collect them while he was here, it would be much more troublesome to find them after he left this place.
The person who manages the material warehouse of the Mu family is an old lady named Wang. Everyone in the village, whether cultivators or mortals, calls her Grandma Wang.
A monk usually looks old and is not far from passing away.
But Grandma Wang has a good attitude.
She speaks softly and is kind.
She was very happy to learn that Wei Wenxin collected those refining materials in order to study the properties of each material in preparation for an important research.
He sighed, "That's a big project!", then took out a bunch of keys, grabbed one, and sighed:
"Alas, there are too few young people nowadays who can settle down and do these things. Everyone likes to fight, go on adventures in secret places, and travel around..."
Most people become more nagging when they get older, because they have too many insights into the world and want to be recognized.
Wei Wenxin is a very respectful person to the elderly and doesn't find her annoying.
"Others don't know what kind of thing I need, and I myself don't know for sure either. I can only slowly explore and try little by little. Maybe one day I'll have a flash of inspiration and find the most suitable one. Anyway..."
She thought, there is still plenty of time anyway.
Thinking that Grandma Wang was about to die, he felt that what he said was inappropriate, so he stopped talking halfway.
Granny Wang was not angry. She looked at her with amusement and opened the door of the warehouse.
"For the rarer ones, you have to find Old Wood and go to the treasure house. Most of these materials are worthless, and you don't need much, so I can just give them to you!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Wenxin immediately stopped and stood at the door of the warehouse.
"You can't get something for nothing, Granny Wang. I've already caused you so much trouble. If you give it to me for free, I won't dare to accept it."
Instead of owing a favor to a big shot, it’s better to take a detour to the Qingshen Sect’s direct store and spend a little more money.
"Ah~ In that case, then I'll give it to you at the price of our disciples!"
Granny Wang smiled regretfully and called over a few young disciples.
One person was taking out the items one by one according to the list, one was using a scale to divide and weigh the items, one was in charge of recording, one was in charge of packing, and a few others carried a pile of wood and started making wooden boxes on the spot.
The group of people worked like this for two days and two nights before Granny Wang smiled and handed over a thick stack of lists, asking her to inspect the goods.
A large shed with air leaking out from all sides was temporarily erected at the door of the warehouse. Several large tables were placed under the shed, and small boxes were neatly stacked on the tables like small hills.
"Come on, girl, eight thousand six hundred three hundred thirty-four thousand five hundred and eighty-eight spiritual stones. Let's make it eight thousand six hundred three hundred thirty-four thousand five."
Well, that saves eighty-eight bucks.
Wei Wenxin roughly knew how much these things were worth.
At this price, she could buy it bit by bit outside, or go back to the sect to complete missions, and it would be about the same.
It turns out that what I said before was just a courtesy.
But those words were not said in vain.
After such a series of attacks, she couldn't even bargain.
It is said that people become more cunning as they age.
He has lived to this age, and every meal he eats is not in vain.
After being severely beaten, Wei Wenxin said nothing.
He paid the money readily, put away the things, and bowed deeply to Granny Wang.
The underworld is complicated, who takes who seriously?
Being a sincere person, in the eyes of those cunning and treacherous people, I am afraid that being silly is cute.
But Wei Wenxin did not change his mind.
If you use your mind and eyes on these things, how can you concentrate on practicing?
Every person who cannot ascend must have her own reasons for not being able to ascend...
Wei Wenxin had a thousand things to complain about, and she felt deep resentment towards this seemingly kind Granny Wang.
But this was someone else's territory, and they didn't have much contact with each other on weekdays. Her matter was indeed trivial and annoying, so she said nothing and went back to the guest house.
Everyone has a place to go, and naturally there is a place to come from.
I'll go back and find out who all the descendants of Granny Wang are, and see how she treats them in the future...
When they returned to the guest house, Senior Xueying was still standing on the fence post. Seeing her heavy steps, he could tell she was in a bad mood and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong? Did you miss something?" Wei Wenxin forced a smile and said, "Don't worry, Senior. I bought everything."
After that, without waiting for Xue Ying to ask again, he said: "Speaking of which, I should leave too. There is no need for my help here. It's not good to eat, drink and live here for free."
Xue Ying didn't ask any more questions, but just said, "Then let's go say goodbye to Elder Mu and leave!"
Wei Wenxin carried his personal belongings with him at all times and rode Lingcang back to the other side of the valley without even entering the guest house.
She asked to see Mu Qiushi and told him the purpose of her visit. Mu Qiushi expressed his gratitude but did not keep her.
"Speaking of family matters, I also have to go to the Wanjian Sect to help dig out the other few Enlightenment Tea plants."
This is a technical job, and everyone can rest assured when there is a powerful person who specializes in this field to take action.
Mu Qiushi had only been out of the Qingshen Sect a few times in his life, but he made two trips to the Wanjian Sect for this matter.
Wei Wenxin had a good impression of him, a fair and magnanimous elder. He bowed solemnly and then took Ling Cang and followed Senior Xueying out.
After going out, they went straight out of the village. Senior Xueying had already returned to his original size and built a pavilion. He motioned Wei Wenxin to take Lingcang up.
Wei Wenxin didn't want to stay here any longer, so he went up to the pavilion and signaled Snow Eagle to set off.
She left in such a hurry that she didn't even buy food for Ling Cang.
Only after flying for a night and staying in a desolate mountain did he take Lingcang to hunt.
There were fertile fields everywhere in the Qingshen Sect, but there were hardly any virgin forests. They were heading northeast, not along the coast, and couldn't go fishing in the sea, so they put a lot of effort into filling their stomachs that night.
The meat was as big as a fist and had alternating fat and lean texture. Wei Wenxin skewered it with branches as thick as fingers, sprinkled seasoning on it, and grilled it.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Xue Ying asked her about what had made her angry before.
So Wei Wenxin told the story of how he had been humiliated.
"It's not because of the spirit stones. Even if they are extorting money, they only charge a few hundred million or tens of millions more. I can still afford this amount of spirit stones. I just feel..."
Wei Wenxin distributed the grilled skewers to Ling Cang and Xue Ying, took a deep breath, and then said depressedly: "I thought she was a good person, but I didn't expect... I am like a fool."
Being played around in the palm of someone's hand.
Snow Eagle raised its wings and ate the meat while saying, "Mu Lingxin is her granddaughter. She got into a fight a few days ago and was punished by Elder Mu to dig in the most desolate place. I don't know how long it will take for her to come back. I'm teaching you a lesson~"
Wei Wenxin also picked up a skewer of meat and took a fierce bite. He had all kinds of thoughts in his mind, but he didn't say them out loud.
At the same time, after watching them leave, Mu Qiushi immediately called Wang Po over.
"Tell me, what did you do to him?"
Wang Po smiled kindly and sat down directly opposite him.
"Look at your expression? It's scary."
"I'm talking to you about serious matters. Please be serious."
The Qingshen sect has a strong human touch, and the relationships between the monks are mostly maintained through kinship.
Although Wang Po married from another village, her husband and Mu Qiushi are cousins.
"If you really take that little girl seriously, why didn't you keep her here and apologize properly? Ha!"
After saying that, he got up and left.
Mu Qiushi sneered: "It's not me who offended anyone, why should I apologize?"
"Oh, you can't even write two wood characters with one stroke! I'm just a Yuanying stage disciple, what am I afraid of?"
When the voice came, the person had already left the door.
Mu Qiushi let out a long sigh.
He will ascend to heaven soon, so he can't care too much about how his descendants live.
Children and grandchildren have their own blessings!
The child grows very fast.
The clothes can still be worn for two years, but the pants basically cannot.
Sister Wang said that now it’s nine-point pants, and in a while it’ll be seven-point pants. While they’re not broken, you can still wear five-point pants, so that one pair of pants can give the effect of wearing several pairs of pants.
Then she told me not to waste money by always buying her pants.
Haha, what a sweet little baby.
Just care about summer, not autumn and winter!
The autumn in Chengdu is super short. It will get cold in about a month. I have already bought new clothes and pants for them.
I will clean up the wardrobe in a few days, and they can help me this year.
