Chapter 287 - A Good Student and A Troublemaking “Grandmaster” (1/2)
Lin Luoran is anxious.
Everyone at the Lin’s knows the new owner of the flower shop opposite the Temple of the Marquis of Wu is a monster vine now. The two teenagers are obsessed with mysterious stories in which a Peony Fairy turns into a beautiful girl and keeps a young man’s company while he reads at night. The story is so attractive. Lin Luodong doesn’t care about how dangerous she may be. He just hopes that Miss Yang is a girl like the Peony Fairy. Huang Weijian is more rational. He learned that monsters are not kind creatures since he was a child. Although he won’t kill monsters once he sees one, he knows he should be careful because monsters make the bald pen shake.
Li Xi’er murmurs something while staring at her peony that just survived a disease. She thinks what Lin Luoran said before was far-sighted. No one believed there were Peony Fairies in this world then. Well, a monster vine shows up now. Li Xi’er regards the female monster who calls herself Yang Lisha a nice person. If Lin Luoran didn’t stop her, she would have gone to know more about her.
Mr. Lin also thought there was nothing special about the flower shop. Yuan Ye is the only one who stood on Lin Luoran’s side and disagrees with everyone else.
Yuan Ye is anxious too. Neither the teacher nor the student knows what to say in front of all the naive people at Lin’s.
The monster vine shows up with perfect timing. In the past, the crazy Taoist guarded Rong City. Although it is not true, everyone thought he was Lin Luoran’s teacher. It gives her more courage when she does everything. This ignorant monster came right after the crazy Taoist left.
n.o.body believes she came here by accident. At this critical moment, Yuan Ye outsmarts everyone at the Lin’s.
“Grandmaster,I think the monster vine is more powerful than she looks.”
Lin Luoran nods, “How do you think of it?”
Yuan Ye recalls everything he remembers about last night, “There were no magic circles. We climbed over the wall and got into the backyard easily. If great grandmaster hadn’t broken off that branch, we could have left without triggering the vines. Miss Yang must be a super powerful monster. She is not afraid of other cultivators breaking into her home, so she doesn’t even bother to build a defense system. Besides, she treasures that Acacia tree. If we harmed that tree last night, it wouldn’t be just the vines. We may be seriously injured.”
Yuan Ye pauses, and Lin Luoran asks him to continue.
“What I think strange is that the Acacia tree seems to be over a thousand years old. Its Reiki is abundant, but it’s dying. If the monster vine really treasures the tree, she should bring it to somewhere with green mountains, clear water and abundant Reiki instead of letting it be contaminated by turbid air in the city. Unless, there is something here that is worth risking the Acacia tree’s life, like you……grandmaster.”
After saying these, Yuan Ye takes a look at the backyard. Flowers are in full blossom, fruit trees are luxuriantly green, vegetables all taste good, crude drugs in the bamboo grove, as well as the entire Lin’s villa which is full of peaceful Reiki. They need to thank Lin Luoran for all of these. She turns ordinary vegetables into magical ones. Is this the secret ability of Lin’s? It is because of this secret ability that they can make elixir and plant magic circles for cultivation. Yuan Ye is very proud of the strength of the Lin’s, but it can also make others jealous.
For her own sake, she has thought of it for a long time.
Reiki will attract others’ attention sooner or later, and now a monster comes to the door.
“Grandmaster, I have a request.”
Yuan Ye has a silver tongue. The last time he spoke seriously like this was the day when he got admitted as a student of Lin’s. Lin Luoran stares at him in amazement while he leans down and bows, “I plead with grandmaster to accept Zeng Tian into our school.”
I plead with grandmaster to accept Zeng Tian into our school!
Yuan Ye keeps bowing and refuses to stand up. He repeats his words three times.
Lin Luoran is slightly moved. She didn’t put much effort into teaching him. Did she join into Lin’s faster than she thought?
Is it because the Lin’s and Zeng Tian have known each other for a long time that Yuan Ye asks her to admit Zeng Tian into the school? He is not begging for Zeng Tian. Rather, he wants Zeng Tian to be on the same boat with him. Yuan Ye is smarter than Lin Luoran thought. He has probably realized that the crazy Taoist is not her grandmaster. Therefore, Yuan Ye calls the crazy Taoist “master” when he meets him now and then. It is also why he calls Mr. Lin “great grandmaster”.
“Yuan Ye, I think of a spell of sword. Would you like to learn?”
Yuan Ye looks up and raises his eyebrows in surprise, which makes his face looks less innocent and more angular.
“I will do what you ask me to!”
……
“Miss Yang, the night breeze is cold. Make sure the quilt covers your whole body when you sleep.” Lin Luoran’s words can be interpreted in many ways. Li Xi’er wants to see the monster vine, but Lin Luoran sends her away to pay some cash for the flowers.
