Chapter 148: The Resurrection of the Spiritual Energy of Elvis: Call Daddy!
Faced with Minister Zhang's inquiry, Si Yuan agreed without much hesitation: "Okay, but the quantity you can purchase at the moment is limited." After all, he had to use it first for Grandma Chen and Chen Miaoyun, and would only sell it when the quantity of willow buds they had used was saturated.
Minister Zhang and others could understand that they had never thought of buying the share given to Chen Miaoyun from Si Yuan, as long as they were not prohibited from purchasing it.
Si Yuan's spiritual consciousness descended on the top floor conference room of the Guard Department headquarters in order to explain the matter of the giant willow to them clearly, so as to prevent the people of the Guard Department from accidentally damaging his property.
After achieving his goal, Si Yuan withdrew his spiritual consciousness.
After Minister Zhang discussed the terms of purchasing willow buds with Si Yuan, he started a new topic again, but did not hear any response from Si Yuan, so he guessed that Si Yuan might have left.
But when he looked at the other senior executives attending the meeting, they only dared to signal with their eyes. No one dared to mention Si Yuan, because they were not sure whether Si Yuan had really left or was just sitting there in the meeting room without saying a word, waiting for them to discuss him behind his back to see how they would mention him.
Minister Zhang knew what everyone was thinking, so he didn't mention Si Yuan at all, and just said, "Since the giant willow is not a threat, let's just adjourn the meeting."
No one had any objection, and everyone quietly packed up and left the meeting room.
But everyone reached a consensus - no one should be careless and speak casually in the Guard Headquarters in the future. After all, no one knows if there is a cat demon eavesdropping in secret.
However, establishing a new secure communication method that can at least guard against eavesdropping cat demons has become the top priority of the Guard Department.
Si Yuan didn't care at all about how much psychological pressure his spiritual consciousness coming to the Guard Headquarters brought to Minister Zhang and others. He was busy teaching the Chen family's grandparents and grandchildren to practice.
Grandma Chen is old, and her progress in cultivation is very slow, but as she insists on drinking willow bud tea every day, her progress in cultivation increases a little bit every day.
As the amount of spiritual energy absorbed into her body increased, her white hair turned darker, her wrinkles decreased, and she became healthier and younger.
Chen Miaoyun's aptitude is slightly better than Grandma Chen's, and her cultivation progress is even faster than Grandma Chen's, but she is young, and her body has not undergone obvious changes like Grandma Chen to experience the benefits of cultivation.
After Nanshan Primary School resumed classes, many students were arranged to transfer schools by their worried parents because of the giant willow and cat demon incidents. As for the remaining students in Nanshan Primary School, either their parents did not believe their children's claims that there were tree demons and cat demons in the school, or their parents did not care much about their children's affairs.
Even so, there are not many students continuing to attend Nanshan Primary School.
The class that Chen Miaoyun was in went from having 40 to 50 students to only having more than 30 students.
In this situation, it seems very strange that someone transferred here, especially so long after the sixth grade started.
Because of this strangeness, Chen Miaoyun specifically mentioned this matter to Grandma Chen and Si Yuan after school: "There is a transfer student in our class today. It's really strange. Why did he transfer now? Moreover, in our school, many students have transferred out, but someone transferred in..."
Si Yuan, who was eating at the dining table with Grandma Chen and Chen Miaoyun, asked, "Miaomiao, what is the name of this transfer student?"
Chen Miaoyun picked up a chicken leg for him and answered, "His name is Zhang Yuncheng. He seems to know Jiang Shijing from our class. However, they don't have a good relationship. Zhang Yuncheng didn't get along well with Jiang Shijing when he arrived."
When Si Yuan heard the name 'Zhang Yuncheng', he paused as he was about to eat the chicken leg, raised his eyebrows, and showed obvious sarcasm on his cat face: "Maybe they really have a grudge against each other."
Zhang Yuncheng is the one who wanted to kidnap the heroine Jiang Miaomiao to threaten the hero Jiang Shijing in the original plot. As a result, the younger brother who arranged the kidnapping mistakenly kidnapped Chen Miaoyun as Jiang Miaomiao. Afterwards, the hero Jiang Shijing ignored Chen Miaoyun, and the heroine Jiang Miaomiao kept silent about Chen Miaoyun's kidnapping...
Although the original plot did not clearly state what the villain Zhang Yuncheng did to Chen Miaoyun, just by looking at the police fishing out Chen Miaoyun's drowned body from the reservoir afterwards, you can tell that Zhang Yuncheng is not a good person. He is the direct murderer of Chen Miaoyun, much more hateful than the two indirect murderers Jiang Shijing and Jiang Miaomiao.
The original plot did not clearly state any deep hatred between Zhang Yuncheng and Jiang Shijing, it only said that the two had been sworn enemies since childhood.
Then Zhang Yuncheng deliberately followed Jiang Shijing to transfer to this school in elementary school. I'm afraid the hatred between Zhang Yuncheng and Jiang Shijing is extraordinary.
However, Si Yuan had no interest in any grudges between Zhang Yuncheng and Jiang Shijing. He only knew that if Zhang Yuncheng dared to involve Chen Miaoyun in the dispute between him and Jiang Shijing, he would never let this guy go.
Facing the still innocent Chen Miaoyun, Si Yuan didn't say much, but just reminded her: "Stay away from Jiang Shijing and Zhang Yuncheng in your class in the future, don't get involved in their affairs, and if you encounter any problems, you can always ask me for help."
Chen Miaoyun nodded repeatedly. She trusted Si Yuan now. Whenever she encountered any problem, her first reaction was to ask Si Yuan for help without worrying about implicating her grandmother and choosing to swallow her anger.
After Chen Miaoyun nodded, she showed some hesitation on her face, which was noticed by Si Yuan. He took the initiative to ask, "But what happened at school? If there is anything unusual, just tell me directly. You don't have to hide it from Dad."
When Chen Miaoyun heard Si Yuan calling her "Dad", her face flushed a little, but she did not refute Si Yuan's address. She whispered, "Classmate Jiang Shijing has suddenly become more enthusiastic towards me recently. He never liked to talk to others before, but recently he has talked to me more often. After school, he even deliberately walked with me. I feel like he is actively approaching me..."
Although Jiang Shijing tried to conceal his deliberate approach, Chen Miaoyun could still feel the change in Jiang Shijing's attitude towards her.
After all, Jiang Shijing used to be so arrogant. Sometimes when she helped the teacher hand out test papers and she handed them to Jiang Shijing, Jiang Shijing would look at her in the same way as he looked at the tables, chairs and benches in the classroom. She always kept her distance from Jiang Shijing.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shijing suddenly took the initiative to talk to her. Although every time he looked for her, it seemed to be for serious matters, such as the teacher asked her to go to the office, asking what today's homework was, or whether the physical education teacher would be sick again in the next class... But Jiang Shijing could have asked other students, so why did he come to ask her specifically?
Chen Miaoyun just felt that Jiang Shijing was paying attention to her. Although it seemed a bit self-indulgent to think so, her spiritual perception and five senses had become more acute since she started practicing. Under Si Yuan's guidance, she also believed in her own feelings very much.
Si Yuan tapped the table with his paw pads, stood up and paced twice, then asked Chen Miaoyun, "Repeat to me everything Jiang Shijing said to you when he approached you."
Chen Miaoyun, whose memory has improved since she started practicing, recalled carefully for a while and repeated everything Jiang Shijing said to her.
After listening to this, Grandma Chen said: "It feels like it's just normal communication between classmates. There's nothing wrong with it."
Si Yuan was keenly aware of something wrong: "No, he asked if you have a cat. Although it seems to be a casual question... Miaomiao, have you mentioned me in class before?"
Chen Miaoyun nodded in confusion: "I did mention it a few times before, but every time you went to school with me, you never showed up from your schoolbag. Jiang Shijing probably hasn't seen you, right..."
Si Yuan said calmly: "Although he has never seen me, he might be able to guess something from what you said about me before."
For example, Chen Miaoyun boasted to her good friends in class that her cat had snow-white fur and yellow fur on its limbs, just like it was wearing two pairs of yellow gloves... The speaker was unintentional, but the listener took it seriously.
Maybe when Chen Miaoyun was talking about cats with her friends, Jiang Shijing, who was in the classroom, accidentally heard it. Then, when he saw the yellow-gloved snow-white cat demon fighting the giant willow, he remembered the cat that Chen Miaoyun had mentioned.
Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why Jiang Shijing noticed Chen Miaoyun's existence.
In the original plot, Chen Miaoyun was an insignificant cannon fodder on the road of love between the male and female protagonists. As a neighbor, the female protagonist Jiang Miaomiao might still remember the cannon fodder Chen Miaoyun who died in the hands of the villain Zhang Yuncheng instead of her, but the male protagonist Jiang Shijing certainly would not remember Chen Miaoyun, a classmate who was insignificant in his heart.
Jiang Shijing is a reborn person, and he may not remember Chen Miaoyun in his past life.
And looking at Jiang Shijing's cold attitude towards the heroine Jiang Miaomiao after his rebirth, we can tell that he has a career-oriented mind instead of a love-oriented mind after his rebirth.
Then Jiang Shijing's sudden change in attitude towards Chen Miaoyun was very suspicious.
Si Yuan had to speculate in the direction that Jiang Shijing might have guessed his existence.
There is another argument supporting Si Yuan's speculation, that is, Chen Miaoyun embarked on the path of cultivation.
There is an obvious difference in aura between those who have embarked on the path of cultivation and those who have not. Chen Miaoyun has just started on the path of cultivation and does not yet have the ability to conceal the changes in his aura.
If other extraordinary people who are experienced in judging the difference in aura between ordinary people and cultivators see Chen Miaoyun, it will be easy for them to discover that Chen Miaoyun is also a cultivator.
Jiang Shijing is a reborn person, and no one knows whether he, a reborn person, will be very sensitive to aura and detect that Chen Miaoyun has embarked on the path of cultivation.
If Jiang Shijing knew that Chen Miaoyun had started practicing, it would be natural for him to suspect that Chen Miaoyun, who had once mentioned the color of his cat's fur, had something to do with the giant cat demon who defeated Giant Willow.
