CLIMBING THE PINNACLE OF MARTIAL ARTS

Chapter 9: Treasurer Meng

Throughout his years in the Pure Battallion pavilion, the only person Ye Feng really knew was Treasurer Meng. After all, she had to go to him every month.

Treasurer Meng has a nickname that most people refer to as, Bully Meng. Even though his position was the treasurer, he still liked to squeeze out contribution points from other disciples.

Take a blood clotting cream for example, it will usually sell for about ten contribution points. He would sell two bottles for three. The amount of cream that should have been put in two bottles, put in three bottles by him. Very simple, he said, buy it or not!.

Of course Treasurer Meng didn't always do it, only occasionally. He was only targeting richer disciples, for a poor person like Ye Feng he didn't even care.

Contribution points are hard to come by, so how can students stand up and be exploited? Any disciple who had been deceived by him would report it to the council. They had warned him several times, but he still continued, regardless of the council's warning. Moreover, his position was extremely important, and no one could replace him.

Because of this, all the school students hated him to the utmost extent.

The old man was cruel to everyone, except Ye Feng, to him he could not do anything. It was because one time, he was peeping at a female disciple, and was caught off guard by her.

No respect for parents! A sk*ndal! He was caught, so Treasurer Meng could only lower his head in front of Ye Feng.

It was precisely because of that that Ye Feng became very familiar with the old man. .

The lecherous old man, with thick skin quickly adjusted his attitude and said: "Just like usual?".

(TLN: For those who do not know, thick skin is to be very shameless).

"Yes Ye Feng said solemnly while nodding his head.

Not saying a word, Treasurer Meng took out ten silvers from inside the drawer and took note of them.

Taking the silver, he asked: "How many contribution points do I have now?".

Turning his eyes, the treasurer replied: "You get four points each month and then use one point to exchange for 10 silver. That leaves you with only three points to keep, resulting in a total of twelve points in your account. Do you want to exchange it for a bottle of blood clotting cream? ”.

“No, I just asked. "he replied while muttering:" Twelve uh. ”

An extremely small amount, even if you just wanted to exchange it for a small medicinal herb, it wouldn't even be enough.

With a serious face, Treasurer Meng whispered to him: "Feng'er, you want to save up and exchange it for a body essence pill? But to save for that pill, and then increase your speed, how long would it take ?.

"Aren't I finally going to achieve it?" he answered while laughing.

This made Treasurer Meng speechless. He thought that with his speed, by the time he made it, this old man had already died for so many years.

“But Treasurer Meng, there is one thing I do not understand. ”

"Speak!" the old man said while wearing an attitude of 'I'm in a good mood so I'll tell you'

"The body essence pill is an extremely precious medicine, how could it appear here?".

“He he .....” spoke with a proud face: “It was because this pill was the treasure of this old man, others did not know about it. ”

"Ah, is this yours?"for a moment Ye Feng was stunned. He always thought that this pill belonged to the school. No wonder this old man set such a huge price.

“I'll take it. "he said while nodding

With a gloomy face old Meng asked Ye Feng: "I heard yesterday you were beaten?".

Soon Ye Feng turned around and left.

From behind, Treasurer Meng shouted, “Let this old man ask, don't rush off. ”

He said, but he really felt happy in his heart.

Seeing that Ye Feng had no intention to stop, he straightened his body and shouted: "Feng'er, you should hurry up and leave. The Holy Fort is not a place for you, the sooner the better, than later you will be killed. ”

Stopped for a while but without turning around, Ye Feng sighed: “I have nowhere to go back. ”

He's done if he leaves.

After holding the teapot for a while, Treasurer Meng said: "Then why did you come?".

"The body essence pill ....... he he, this expensive treasure, how could this old man have it?" Treasurer Meng had only made up this lie to give him hope, he never thought that Ye Feng would take him seriously.

Ye Feng then hurriedly returned to his hut and put down the broom, then quickly walked out.

He went to the small village outside Tang Lin to buy food with ten silver pieces of his, just like he did every month.

For the first time this trip did not make him feel tired.

Previously, every time he walked this path, he would get a bad asthma attack repeatedly. But this time, not only did this not happen, his body felt stronger compared to before who felt less tense walking down the path. Even if he walked a hundred miles, he felt that he would not get tired

'Is it because of the golden skeleton?' Ye Feng muttered in his mind. This made him think of something that happened this morning. While he was sweeping, another disciple bumped into him, but instead with what usually happened, he held the ground very stably, while the disciple fell to the ground.

Although this is not much, in retrospect, it is still unusual. With his weak physique, how could he not fall but the other party who had instead fallen. He usually falls.

Growing increasingly excited, he thought about the golden skeletal changes had brought hope to his body. Although these changes were small, they could gradually achieve great changes.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng recovered and immediately walked into the city.

Looking around, he went to the left side of the road. He went to the rice shop. The store was not large and the owner was surnamed He, and the locals. He treats all customers the same way. This was one of the reasons why Ye Feng bought from her.

Such small shops can be found everywhere. The reason why the Black Plum Village was so busy, was because in the surrounding area, other than them there was no Pure Battalion Pavilion but also the Windy Rain Sect. The relationship between the two cannot be considered bad. The other various small schools could not compare to these two main sects because they did not even have their own land.

It was precisely because of these two main sects that the village was able to sell many different weapons and maintain a bustling environment full of various items.

Creating an environment like the Capital of the Han Dynasty !.

After wandering around for a while, Ye Feng accidentally walked through an alley where several people had gathered. He did not know what they were doing, but they were extremely suspicious and gave Ye Feng an extremely cruel look.

Chuckling lightly, he simply followed the principle of he ignoring them. But among the three there was one who was dressed in a manner similar to Ye Feng.
