Chapter 27: I keep cats instead of flowers. Sometimes I really want to call the police on behalf of the cat. ...
"That guy Shican is really obsessed with becoming a spiritual master."
Ye Yangjia handed the bag of potato chips to Wen Miyan.
"When I first entered the advanced department, Mr. Fu asked a question in class. He asked everyone if there was anything they wanted to do if they didn't become spiritual masters."
"I want to work in the automotive industry, Wen Miyan wants to be a food blogger, and Gong Yongyuan said he could start a band... When it was Shi Can's turn, he asked why he couldn't become a spiritual master. The reason he gave up on becoming a spiritual master definitely wasn't his own fault. As long as something like the Spiritual Master Mansion didn't collapse, he would definitely be a spiritual master in the future."
Wen Miyan also put her thoughts back to the past.
"I remember this, and then Teacher Fu asked him, 'What if the Spiritual Master Mansion and Tiancheng collapsed?'"
Wen Miyan imitated Fu Xingwei's tone, cleared her throat, and then imitated Shi Can and said,
"'I will set up a company called the Spiritual Master House. Although the level of everyone here is not very good, if you still have the determination to become an excellent spiritual master, you are welcome to join me.'"
Lin Zhuyue: "...Won't you get beaten?"
她听着都觉得拳头痒痒,想把时灿挂到训练馆里当沙包,戴上拳套暴揍他半个小时。
She wanted to hit someone, and this group of people would definitely not be able to tolerate it. These little geniuses have been ahead of their peers since they were young, and they are arrogant. How could they tolerate such an insult?
"I really want to hit someone."
Ye Yangjia sighed regretfully and said,
"But who can beat this idiot? It's not like no one in the academy has tried. When we were still in the elementary department, someone in the advanced department didn't like him. They blocked him in the hallway after school and wanted to beat him up. Then they all ended up in the school infirmary."
"I happened to be on duty that day, and the screams in the corridor made me think the school was haunted."
Lin Zhuyue listened attentively, and while Wen Miyan and Ye Yangjia were not paying attention, he quietly reached out to touch the spicy squid-flavored potato chips on the bedside table.
The door handle of the room was twisted.
Shi Chan came in with a bag, looked around the room, and greeted in a "friendly" tone:
"Hey, are you all here? I sneezed several times on the way here and thought I had a cold. So you guys got together to say bad things about me?"
"Stop, hold on."
Ye Yangjia said in a disgusted tone,
"Why are the three of us getting together to talk about you? You have such a strong sense of self-awareness that it's annoying."
Shi Chan sat down at the table: "So what are you talking about?"
"The engagement ceremony of my cousin and my future cousin-in-law."
Ye Yangjia took out two invitations from her bag and handed them to him.
"It's for your family, but your parents are busy, so you should be the only one who can attend the banquet, right? It will be held on the cruise ship in half a month, and the boarding point will be Yuqiongshan Pier. You can make your own arrangements and free up time."
Shi Can took the invitation and said, "Actually, I don't really want to go."
Ye Yangjia wanted to take the invitation from Shi Can immediately, and said angrily:
"Actually, my cousin doesn't really want you to come."
Lin Zhuyue didn't know what the feud between Ye Yangjia's cousin and Shi Can was, but Lin Zhuyue felt that it was normal to have a feud, because Shi Can's words and deeds were so annoying, and it seemed as if he could have a feud with anyone.
Lin Zhuyue asked: "How is the mission going?"
Four first-year students from the senior department and their instructor were practicing in Qinling Mountains. Last night, they suddenly sent a distress message to the Spiritual Master's Mansion.
The Spiritual Master's Mansion wanted to contact them, but was unable to do so no matter what.
Yi Lanshan, the head of the Advanced Education Department, knew that if things were delayed, the survival rate of the trainee spiritualists would be greatly reduced. She acted decisively and asked Principal Liang to send a team of full-time spiritualists to the rescue.
This matter had nothing to do with Shican.
After the rescue team searched for the missing trainee spiritualists overnight without success, Fu Xingwei, who heard about this, recommended Shi Can to the school.
All members of the missing team are spiritual masters with strong spiritual powers. They may have used spiritual powers to fight against something when they encountered danger.
Under such conditions, Shi Can, who has a strong sense of inspiration, may have the opportunity to sense the location of these people.
In reality, Lin Zhuyue had a stronger sense of inspiration and was more suited to finding people. But she was a novice, and aside from those eager to kill her, no one would involve her in a mission where even a formal spiritualist like her instructor had perished.
Shi Chan pulled out a chair and sat down.
He was covered in dirt after tossing and turning in the Qinling Mountains. He had just taken a shower and changed his clothes in the school locker room. His hair, which he had blown dry with a hair dryer, was still stained with the cheap scent of Tiancheng's not-so-good shampoo.
"That instructor is sick."
Shi Chan put the bag of dirty clothes aside.
"Those four first-year brats never seemed to obey him. He planned to show off his skills to his students in Qinling Mountains. When he encountered an ancient tomb that had been destroyed by tomb robbers, he took his students in to deal with it instead of reporting it to the Spiritual Master's Mansion."
"The Qinling Mountains are full of ghosts, monsters, and mountain spirits. The aura and magnetic field are extremely chaotic. I searched the mountains for seven hours before I found the ancient tomb. The Spirit Master Mansion didn't allow me to intervene in the rescue, so I returned."
Ye Yangjia frowned and asked:
"Is this going to be punished?"
"The instructor's spiritual master certificate can no longer be kept."
Shi Can reached out to Lin Zhuyue.
"Why are you staring at that bag of chips on the bedside table? You can't eat them. Bring them here, I'll finish them for you. Those four brats will probably get punished too, and they'll be serious ones."
Lin Zhuyue curled the corners of her mouth and reluctantly handed the bag of spicy squid-flavored potato chips to him.
"By the way, there's good news."
Shi Chan took the potato chips and announced,
"Isn't the typhoon coming here soon? When I came back, Principal Liang and Director Yi were discussing suspending classes tomorrow afternoon and the day after tomorrow."
Ye Yangjia was not very satisfied:
"Why not just stop tomorrow morning as well?"
"If you have any opinions, tell me directly. This is not my business."
Shi Can's attention returned to Lin Zhuyue.
"You should be almost recovered now. You can move around without any problems, right? Bring a set of autumn sportswear with you to school tomorrow. I'll take you to the training hall at noon."
Lin Zhuyue's body looks slender, but her body fat percentage may be a bit high. After all, her body is soft and sagging, and there are no muscle lines on her arms and legs, and her core strength is also weak.
Although spiritual masters rely mainly on spiritual power rather than fists to deal with ghosts, sometimes the conditions for carrying out the mission are extremely harsh, and if the physical fitness is not good enough, they simply cannot withstand it.
She has to exercise.
Practice to the point where you can kick someone three meters away with one kick.
Lin Zhuyue replied very reluctantly:
"I keep two sets in my locker at school."
"Very good, very self-conscious."
Shi Can held the bag in his left hand, the invitation and the bag of potato chips that Lin Zhuyue had been longing for in his right hand, and stood up and walked out.
"See you tomorrow."
Lin Zhuyue just wanted to make the sound of a boiling kettle.
She really doesn't like sports.
Although I took the physical education test in the senior high school entrance examination, I still got full marks.
But after entering Yuancheng No. 1 Middle School, nearly all physical education classes were taken up by various subject teachers. Aside from a scheduled annual physical exam, Lin Zhuyue rarely engaged in the typical middle school exercises. Her most strenuous daily activities were climbing up and down the elevator-less teaching building with her schoolbag and riding her bicycle back and forth between her home and school.
She even doesn't want to ride a bicycle anymore. She plans to buy an electric bike with a windshield so that when it gets cold, she won't have to pedal in the cold wind while gasping for breath and getting a runny nose when going to and from school.
However, before she could implement the plan, she was kidnapped by Wen Miyan and Ye Yangjia and taken back to Tiancheng.
The next morning.
Lin Zhuyue and Wen Miyan entered the classroom together.
This is the first time Lin Zhuyue has come to school since he was injured during a mission.
The class was quite lively. The girls gathered together with their mobile phones and disposable plastic bags, seemingly sharing something.
Wen Miyan walked over and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"It's wood sorrel."
The girl named Huo Anan picked up her phone, showed the photos in it, and said,
"I couldn't help but repot the wood sorrel at home in advance and dug out a lot of bulbs. Didn't Sisi and the others say they wanted some before? So I brought some here. Look, the flowers are beautiful."
The photo shows light orange five-petal flowers. The shape of the flowers is very thin and simple, but the advantage is that there are many of them, growing in clusters, which looks very beautiful.
"Do you want to plant bulbs?"
Huo Anan shook the large bag of bulbs in his hand.
"It's very easy to grow. You don't need a very large pot. As long as it gets plenty of sunlight and is watered regularly, it will bloom and produce bulbs. The only difficulty is probably when the buds sprout. They tend to get lost and grow sideways or downwards, so you have to dig them out and correct them."
Wen Miyan asked, "Can I plant it in the garden?"
"It's better to find a basin."
Huo Anan opened the bag and separated the bulbs.
"It's so fertile that if you plant it directly in the garden it will overflow."
Lin Zhuyue was also stuffed with five bulbs. She sat in her seat with a small plastic bag in her hand, feeling a little distressed. She first thought about where to get a flower pot, and then wondered if there would be insect eggs in the soil if she just dug some soil outside and brought it back to the dormitory to plant. When the weather was hot, the dormitory would be full of small flying insects.
Shi Can took the textbook and sat down next to Lin Zhuyue:
"What's wrong? Can I please you by giving you a few seeds?"
“…Oh, yes.”
Lin Zhuyue finally reacted.
"I was just saying today was a bit strange...what's going on?"
The students in Class 1, Grade 3 of the Advanced Department were quite hostile to Lin Zhuyue. The unfriendly ones were sarcastic and mocking towards her, while the more friendly ones didn't say anything but would quickly walk away when she approached, not wanting to have anything to do with her.
But today, when Wen Miyan pulled her into the crowd, the girls not only did not disperse, but also spoke to her in a very natural manner.
Shi Can sneered and said:
"Because you have awakened your spiritual martial arts."
In theory, everyone possesses spiritual weapons.
However, the awakening of spiritual weapons requires powerful spiritual power and a certain amount of talent. Not everyone can awaken it, even at a young age. Many people awaken their spiritual weapons in their later years, and even more people never see their spiritual weapons in their entire lives.
Although every student in Class 1 has awakened their spiritual weapons, some of them are not very powerful. They are not as aggressive as Shi Can's Jue Ren and Wen Mixian's Fang Tian, nor as special as Ye Yangjia's Double Guns Yin Shuang.
"In their eyes, you, who possess the Golden Amber Fire, are already qualified to be a member of the first team."
Shi Can opened the textbook and said,
"If you want Oxalis seeds, I'll dig them up for you when the ones I planted die. Last year's hybrid is a new variety that's easy to grow and looks great. It blooms even on cloudy days."
Lin Zhuyue grasped the key point and asked:
"Do you like growing flowers?"
"Not really."
Shi Chan's tone was calm.
"I used to use this to pass the time, but after I got promoted to the senior department, I got a bit busy. The flowers and plants at home are basically taken care of by a gardener. And haven't you heard it before? Keep flowers but not cats, and keep cats but not flowers."
Lin Zhuyue asked in surprise: "Do you have a cat at home?"
Shi Can was not surprised at all by Lin Zhuyue's sudden enthusiasm. There were so many people who liked cats, and some of them were even perverted, so perverted that he wanted to call the police on behalf of the cats.
When he just got a cat last year, Ye Yangjia, who had just ended his teammate relationship with him, wanted to live in his house. If Ye Yangjia hadn't developed a series of allergic symptoms from petting cats, their teammate friendship might have been rekindled because of the cat.
Shican introduced his cat:
"There's a British shorthair golden shaded cat named Baguette. He sheds a lot of hair, and sheds twice a year, each time for half a year."
Lin Zhuyue looked Shi Can up and down and asked:
"I don't think I've ever seen cat hair on you. Do you never go near cats?"
"He loves that cat so much."
Ye Yangjia, who was pushed to the front row, turned around and said,
"There's no cat hair on his body because this young master has his family use a hair remover to remove it three times before he goes out every day."
Shi Can nodded calmly and replied sarcastically:
"I'm a young master, so of course I have to live a refined life."
