From a refugee to a martial artist

Chapter 105: Friendship with Experts

Chapter 105: Friendship with Experts
It was late at night and Meng Yuan had no desire to sleep.

Jiang Tang had already prepared clean shoes, socks, and undershirts, and went to fetch some water.

After Meng Yuan washed his face, she attentively took Meng Yuan to the kitchen, where there was food heating up on the stove.

Meng Yuan simply ate in the kitchen. Jiang Tang sat aside, holding her cheeks with her two little hands. She didn't say a word, just watched stupidly.

The light was dim, and Meng Yuan ate while asking, "Did the princess say when she would see me?"

"No, she said she would do it another day." Jiang Tang replied honestly.

Then there is no need to worry. Meng Yuan nodded slightly. Jiang Tang suddenly leaned close to Meng Yuan's ear and said, "Brother, do you have a child outside?"

She leaned very close, staring at Meng Yuan's eyes with her big eyes, like a little hen.

What are you thinking about all day?
"No." Meng Yuan said.

"I'll ask Sister Qingqing when I get the money back." Jiang Tang still didn't believe it.

"When did you become so close to her?" Meng Yuan smiled.

"She's a very nice person. She sends me food and clothes every now and then. Besides, she's Uncle Nie's daughter, not a stranger. We'll all be sisters in the future, so it's good to get to know each other better." Jiang Tang tilted her head and held her chin with one hand, "Brother, how many sisters will I have in the future?"

"..." Meng Yuan smiled and tapped her forehead, "You're just worrying about nothing."

Jiang Tang pressed his forehead with his two little hands and muttered something like "I've grown up" under his breath.

After dinner, Meng Yuan read a book with her for a while and coaxed her to sleep before going to the yard to practice swordplay.

Having made great contributions this time, Meng Xiaoqi will become Meng Zongqi. It is estimated that it won’t take long for the appointment letter to be issued.

There should be rewards such as elixirs at that time.

Of course, the most important thing is to enter the seventh level of warrior realm and obtain the secret treasures of heaven, which is the most important step on the road of martial arts.

Moreover, he has learned the divine power of Floating Light Cave Heaven, and with his vast dantian that far exceeds that of his peers, his power is even more extraordinary.

Now, this Floating Light Cave has become Meng Yuan’s most powerful killer move.

Meng Yuan thought that with Master Nie and Uncle Zhang around, and if he made great contributions in the future, it would not be difficult to obtain the Demon Suppression Bureau's skills.

However, if you want to practice other methods of heavenly secrets, you have to rely on your own abilities.

Now that I have caught up with Mingyue, it would be best if I could get the Tianji map, but it doesn't matter if I can't. Anyway, I'll try my best.

"Master Nie asked me to serve the Third Miss, but the Third Miss didn't give me the chance! Even when we met, she still said something mean to me out of the blue..."

Meng Yuan thought that when he met the third young lady, he would try his luck as well.

After thinking for a long time, seeing the bright moon in the sky, Meng Yuan took a few steps and started to show off his sword.

After practicing for a while, Meng Yuan sat cross-legged again, trying to open the acupoints again.

First you have to find the acupoints, and then slowly work your way through them. It's really time-consuming and laborious.

It took three days to break open the stone gate. Now it would take another thirty-three days. It was indeed easier, but not much better.

I worked all night but still failed to achieve anything.

Meng Yuan estimated that it would take about two days to open an acupoint. According to Master Nie, it would take an ordinary warrior thirty-three days to open an acupoint, the fastest being ten days to open an acupoint, and the slowest being more than a month.

It is even possible that one is stuck somewhere for the rest of his life and cannot move forward even a bit.

Seeing the sky turning white, Meng Yuan did not feel sleepy. Instead, he felt a fire in his body. In his mind, he thought of Nie Qingqing's pounds of flesh and the dignified appearance of the Third Miss.

"I need to be alert!"

After taking a shower with well water, Meng Yuan simply lit a fire in the kitchen to cook porridge and boiled some eggs.

After breakfast, Jiang Tang pulled Meng Yuan's sleeve for a long time before letting him go.

Meng Yuan packed up and went to the training ground.

"I'm going to Mu Zhuang. Is there anything I can tell your father about this?" Meng Yuan pulled Tie Niu over and stuffed a few cakes into his mouth.

"I'll take him to live in the city in a few days." Tie Niu munched on a biscuit and whispered, "My father told me to persuade you to find a younger one first, saying that it's not a good idea to keep going like this."

"Little one?" Meng Yuan rubbed his eyebrows.

"Yes!" Tie Niu said as a matter of course, "I asked my father what it was, and he said that if I told you, you would understand!"

"..." Meng Yuan patted Tie Niu on the shoulder, "Practice well! When you reach the ninth level, I will find you a job!"

"Okay!" Tie Niu was very happy, "We can still be together! I feel at ease following you!"

Meng Yuan smiled and chatted with the students for a few more words before leaving the training ground.

"Mr. Meng!" Wang Xiucai smiled and bowed, clearly having been waiting for a long time. "Mr. Wang." Meng Yuan smiled and returned the greeting.

"When the prince heard that Teacher Meng had returned, he asked me to invite you, saying that you had come up with some wonderful lines and wanted to invite you to join the poetry club!" said Mr. Wang.

What a clever line! I just had a lot of free time and wanted to find someone to quip with!

Moreover, I'm afraid your Dugu Kang's poetry club is not very good. I guess it's not as prosperous as Lao Bie Keng's poetry club. After all, Xiang Ling can really summon dozens of piglets to be members.

Meng Yuan didn't want to get too close to the monk, "I've been busy lately, so I don't dare to bother you, my Lord."

"I beg you, brother." Seeing that Meng Yuan was unmoved, Wang Xiucai quickly grabbed Meng Yuan's sleeve and said, "The prince sends me to look for you every day. I really have no choice. Brother, please condescend to go there, even if it's just one foot going and one foot leaving at the same time!"

He took out a silver note from his sleeve, which was clearly worth one hundred taels, showing that he had invested a huge amount of money.

"Alas, I don't give face to others, but I have to give face to you, brother!" Meng Yuan took the return money and went with Wang Xiucai to find Dugu Kang.

It was that small courtyard again. Meng Yuan walked in, but Mr. Wang didn't come in either. He just closed the door.

It's only early morning, but it's already quite hot.

Meng Yuan looked up and saw a desk under the grape rack. Dugu Kang was holding a pen, but he didn't know what he was writing.

When I got closer to take a look, I saw that Dugu Kang was actually painting lotus on the grape rack, which was also strange.

"Master Meng, what do you think?" Dugu Kang put away his pen, his fat face full of hope. It was obvious that he was asking Meng Yuan for comments so that he could show some wit.

"Master Liaokong." Meng Yuan didn't respond to his words, but said, "I'm going out on a mission this time, and I find it more and more difficult to do things. What should I do?"

"You have desires. You want to hold greater power and wield a sharper knife." After hearing the word "empty", Dugu Kang felt so comfortable that he quickly went to the kitchen and got out a piece of firewood.

The firewood was only the length of a palm. Dugu Kang rubbed his hands and lit it. "Donor Meng, please hold it."

Meng Yuan took it and held it in his hand. The fire almost burned his hands.

"Lift it up and walk a few steps." Dugu Kang smiled and said kindly, "Hurry up and walk around me!"

Meng Yuan obeyed and did as he was told.

Dugu Kang smiled wisely, and stopped looking. He leaned over the table and copied his ink brush, "I'll give you a piece of calligraphy."

I saw his wrist move, and the pen started to move quickly, and the words that came down were: A person who is obsessed with lust is like holding a torch and walking against the wind, he will surely burn his hands.

Dugu Kang finished writing in a flash, picked up the paper and blew away the ink, and suddenly heard Meng Yuan say, "Master, I understand!"

"Oh?" Dugu Kang saw Meng Yuan holding the firewood in his hand, and the fire was burning his hand, but he still refused to put it down, and his face was suddenly enlightened, so he asked: "What did you realize?"

"Faith is like a torch. When a person acts on faith, it is like a torch lighting the way forward. But if the flame falters, just like the difficult situation, it will make faith falter and hurt oneself."

Meng Yuan exerted force in his hands and crushed the nearly burnt firewood into pieces. "That's why I have to sharpen my knife even more. Anyone or anything that wants to shake my belief, I will kill them with one blow!"

“……” Dugu Kang opened his mouth wide, looked at the words in his hand, and was speechless for a moment.

Meng Yuan wiped off the dust on his hands and asked, "Master Liaokong, what calligraphy do you want to give me?"

"Ah? I haven't written it yet." Dugu Kang rolled up the paper and crumpled it into pieces.

Meng Yuan smiled and said, "Since there is nothing else, I will leave first."

"Don't!" Dugu Kang saw Meng Yuan was about to leave, so he quickly stopped him, "Where are you going? Let's go together!"

"I have to go out on business." Meng Yuan wanted to go and play with Xiangling.

Dugu Kang was unable to stop him, so he followed Meng Yuan out of the yard and said a lot of nice things to him, but Meng Yuan remained unmoved.

"Please." Dugu Kang was extremely humble.

In fact, it doesn't matter if Dugu Kang is brought along. Meng Yuan's status is different now. He can already bring Xiangling into the city and even arrange a job for Xiangling and let her receive an official salary.

"It really won't work." Meng Yuan shook his head and sighed.

"I..." Dugu Kang was very pitiful, "I am from the royal family. In fact, our Dugu family has a unique Tianji map."

"Master Liaokong, you and I are poetry friends and confidants. Why do you have to use these things to bribe me? It will only ruin our friendship." Meng Yuan waved his hand.

"Then I have to give it to you. We are good friends who discuss the Dao, and we exchange witty remarks every day! How about this, when you reach the seventh rank, I will give you a copy. How about it?" Dugu Kang gritted his teeth, "As long as you have nothing to do, come and discuss the Dao more often, and talk about things outside."

"A monk..."

"Don't tell lies!"

"I love to socialize with masters. Besides, you are not an outsider!" Meng Yuan put his arm around Dugu Kang's shoulder, "Let's go together!"
