"Noel went home to bed."
"Scorching Wind?"
Yan Jue was stunned, and when he shifted his gaze, he saw Zhuo Feng suddenly appear on the lounge chair by the swimming pool.
Zhuo Feng twitched his ears. "Teacher, is there something you need from Nuo Er? He just left not long ago. If we try hard, we should be able to wake him up."
"It's not a big deal, don't bother him."
After reading Noel's biography just now, he felt depressed and had all sorts of thoughts running through his mind, but in the end, they all turned into a helpless emotion, so he wanted to come and see this little fish whose future fate he didn't know.
He had forgotten to check the student records when he arrived and had gone straight into the swimming pool. He found nothing; neither of the two cubs was there. Just as he was about to leave, Zhuo Feng's voice stopped him.
Yan Jue felt something was wrong.
He just arrived, and Zhuo Feng happened to be here too? Noel's usual spot is the swimming pool, but Zhuo Feng isn't. And since Noel isn't here, even if he wants to play, he should go to the back hills instead of here. He can't be here to swim, right?
"Zhuo Feng, are you here to play? Will the teacher accompany you?" Yan Jue added, "I don't have anything to do today, so I can stay longer."
Zhuo Feng hesitated and shook his head.
That means something is wrong. Yan Jue waited patiently for the awkward fox to speak.
"I'm not here to play." Zhuo Feng turned his head away, not wanting Yan Jue to see the tension in his eyes. "You encouraged me last time, and I forgot to say thank you, so I came to say hello and give you something as a thank you."
After saying this, Zhuo Feng disappeared without a care whether the person being thanked reacted or not, just as quietly as when he came, leaving Yan Jue at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Wasn't the last time Zhuo Feng gave him encouragement when he confessed his experiences? That was so long ago. It's hard to believe Zhuo Feng could find that as an excuse to give him a gift.
Yan Jue thought maliciously, if this incident hadn't happened, what if Zhuo Feng couldn't find a good excuse? Wouldn't that mean the gift would never be given? Could there be an even more outrageous reason?
Looking at the red gift box on the screen with a smile, he once again had a new understanding of how awkward Zhuo Feng was.
I just don't know what Zhuo Feng will give him. He shouldn't be as crazy as Noel. In the world of cultivation, there should be many things with very impressive looks. It's not like the deep sea where no one can see each other and creatures can grow as they please.
With full anticipation, Yan Jue opened the gift box.
The sound of porcelain knocking against the ground was heard, and then a strange light fragrance suddenly spread and penetrated into the nose. The moment he smelled it, Yan Jue felt his spirits lifted and his mind became much clearer. He subconsciously looked up, then covered his eyes with his hands.
Help, what the hell is that!
Two white porcelain pots held what must be a plant. Even with the pots, they were only knee-high. Bare, dark green stems sprouted from the soil, with only a cluster of slender, palm-sized, soft leaves at the very top.
The leaves hang down softly, scattered like fireworks in the sky. If you only look at this, then this plant still has some ornamental value. The problem is that the unidentified objects growing under these soft leaves are very eye-catching and unsightly.
Let's call it a flower. It's enormous. At the top is a deep purple petal with a pattern resembling an eye, complete with pupils and eyelids. Attached below are four oversized petals with white patterns resembling human limbs, draping over the edge of the pot. Combined with the pattern above, from a distance, it resembles a naked man standing in the shape of a "big"!
Moreover, this naked man only has one bright eye, and the leaves above his eye, I don’t know if they are his eyelashes or his afro, but in short, he looks very vulgar and coquettish.
When you look up and see two naked men with afro swaying towards you, who can resist it?
Yan Jue covered his eyes and slumped over the table, wailing silently in his heart.
Why don't the cubs he raised have normal aesthetic taste! One is a mermaid and the other is a fox demon, shouldn't they like beautiful things? His aesthetic taste is also normal, why are the two cubs so different from him?
Oh, it’s not his biological child, then it’s okay.
Rubbing his eyes, Yan Jue tried to cleanse them by reading the item introduction and Zhuo Feng's message.
[The gift has been delivered.
Clivia: A specialty from the Tianchen Continent, a gift from the nine-tailed fox demon Zhuofeng.]
Just as it's hard for you to imagine this plant is actually an orchid, it's also hard for the people of Tianchen Continent to imagine the feelings and malice of the person who first discovered and named it. An ugly flower, yet its power to calm the mind—isn't that a contradiction? Do you dare use it? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?
[But what does this have to do with the Clivia? It just grows quietly near the swamp, quietly blooming and emitting its fragrance during its blooming season, quietly, never disturbing anyone.]
Note from Burning Wind:
The fragrance of this herb can calm the mind and clear the mind, so it's suitable for ordinary people. It blooms for nine months, and it's only been blooming for a month now, so it's sure to bloom for a long time. It doesn't need watering or fertilizer. I've buried a low-grade spirit stone underneath it, which will ensure it lives for three years. You can place it anywhere you like.
[Noel said the teacher would take the material for research.]
The note was written in Zhuo Feng's usual cold tone, and the last sentence was incoherent, but Yan Jue immediately understood what Zhuo Feng meant after seeing it.
Were they sending two pots of spirit stones specifically for his study? Yan Jue secretly chuckled at Zhuo Feng's awkward thoughtfulness, and at the same time, he was very curious about the two low-grade spirit stones he mentioned.
That is the legendary spiritual stone. I really want to dig it out and see what it looks like.
Their world's spiritual energy has revived, so spiritual stones should appear, right? I don't know how many years it will take. For now, I can only wait for the research institute to dig up the spiritual stones, study them, and show him photos.
After watching the man carry away the Clivia and its pot, Yan Jue withdrew his gaze without any reluctance, went into the game and knocked on Zhuo Feng's door.
As soon as the door opened, Yan Jue threw a bunch of flattery on Zhuo Feng's head.
Although the kid has problems with his aesthetic taste, as a caring and good teacher, I naturally cannot blame him for giving me a gift with problems and force him to correct it. At this time, I just need to smile and praise him for his intentions.
Little did he know that when Yan Jue was praising her against his conscience, Zhuo Feng sitting opposite him kept nodding in his heart, confirming one thing: it turns out that the teacher really likes ugly ones, and Noel did not lie to him.
If Yan Jue knew what Noel said to Zhuo Feng behind his back, he would definitely be so depressed that he would spit out blood, but he didn't know that he had deepened Zhuo Feng's misunderstanding and could only continue to accept gifts with tears in his eyes.
Zhuo Feng suppressed his shyness and discomfort as he listened to Yan Jue's words of thanks, and whispered, "As long as the teacher likes it." He could no longer bear it and forced the guest to leave.
It was the first time he gave a gift, and also the first time he received such an exaggerated response. He needed to be quiet.
Yan Jue wanted to continue chatting with Zhuo Feng to deepen their relationship, but he was asked to leave. Looking at the dormitory door on the screen, he touched his nose and smiled silently.
Well, it was his fault for calling someone shy.
But he had just noticed that the nest he had given Zhuo Feng was safely placed on the haystack, and it showed signs of frequent use, suggesting Zhuo Feng liked it very much. Perhaps he should give him something similar in return? The cave was still a little too empty.
Foxes are canines, so Zhuofeng should like some toys that dogs like to play with, right?
Yan Jue left with dangerous thoughts.
The sky cleared up in the afternoon, and Yan Jue continued to go out to earn points.
A group of architectural professionals have been formed to discuss and draw up the requirements put forward by Noel's father. I believe that this building with very simple requirements will be designed soon.
After several days of intense discussions, Pan Wencheng's team gradually finalized and drafted the relevant legal treaties. An app called "Science" was completed even earlier than the complete text.
The purpose of creating the app is to build a convenient platform for the metaphysical community to communicate, publish tasks, and communicate. After all, nowadays, everyone from the elderly to children as young as seven uses mobile phones, so having an app to announce and publicize things that need to be publicized is the most convenient.
As for the name, it's just a bad taste of the experts... No, it's to warn those users not to forget that science is still the mainstream in the world.
The new personal information database has also been partially completed and is ready for use. Due to the urgent need, it is currently only targeted at the metaphysical community. Once it is complete, it will cover practitioners across the country.
As the first person to be entered into the database, Zhang Zizhen finally got his wish and joined the Special Management Bureau, becoming an ordinary employee. Before leaving, he was also tasked with promoting a scientific app within the metaphysical community.
Yan Jue also verified his real name on the Science app. Everyone uses their real name online, and clicking on a profile reveals the person's affiliation with a sect, Taoist temple, or even unscientific identities like Taoist priest, monk, or Gu master.
His profile states that he is a consultant to the Special Management Bureau. With this title, he has completely given up on hanging out in forums and can only secretly peek at the screen.
Since Zhang Zizhen has become a civil servant, the country has also established a relationship with the Zhengyi Sect, and the cause of the bizarre injuries on the four soldiers who had previously performed special missions has finally been revealed.
Simply put, they were cast into an immature flying insect spell by an unprofessional sorcerer.
True black magic doesn't appear to be unusual on the surface and can only be detected through unscientific means. Due to the unprofessional nature of the black magic practitioner, the soldier's wounds displayed strange symptoms. The reason why wounds mysteriously split open after being sutured is because of insects infesting the wounds.
After hearing about this, Zhang Zizhen's grandfather, the head of the Zhengyi Sect, expressed concern and told them he knew a Miao Gu Master who could help them try to remove the poison. While the two factions were different, they were both essentially dealing with insects, so with some effort it shouldn't be difficult.
They naturally said that the person had been cured and didn't say anything else.
When Yan Jue listened to Pan Wencheng's talk, his scalp went numb. Just thinking about countless bugs crawling around in his body made him feel terrified.
However, he did not overlook the fact that some people abroad have already awakened to supernatural powers.
They had no idea what was happening abroad, and even if a country discovered something, they would surely keep it secret rather than publicly announce it. They could only investigate secretly or wait for someone to reveal themselves. Furthermore, China was also very busy, and as long as it wasn't targeting them, they didn't have the time to care about what was happening abroad.
After three days of hard work, professionals from the Department of Architecture designed several drawings that were simple and elegant, while also taking practicality into consideration. They avoided designing an invincible swimming pool that would make mermaids feel like they were being put into a pot of dumplings.
After handing the designed architectural drawings to Noel and asking him to take them back, they soon received a satisfactory reply from Noel's father, and they discussed the price of the materials and the amount of seafood in exchange.
Noel's father was unwilling to cheat them, and China naturally would not repay kindness with enmity. Both sides had good intentions, so the transaction process was very quick. Noel finalized the contract after only a few messages.
Large quantities of building materials were provided by the state. Yan Jue was a little worried about the crossing fee at first, but after the customer service told him that the price was one point per cubic meter, he put his mind at ease.
Very good, not much, Noel should be able to afford it. As for their side, after unremitting efforts during the day and going to various bars, Internet cafes, night markets and other places at night, Yan Jue has already accumulated a share of 100,000.
In other words, they can bring Zhuo Feng and Noel into reality!
