Chapter 79: The new head teacher, Mr. Duan, seems to dislike him. ...
After passing security, Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can began to search for delicious food.
The terminal in Yebei City is not very big and the food is limited.
The two of them walked around twice but couldn't find anything they wanted to eat in this food desert, so they sat on the chairs and played with their phones.
Lin Zhuyue was so sleepy that he kept dozing off.
She hasn't slept well for two days because of this mission.
She planned to sleep after getting on the plane, but she couldn't help herself from being sleepy. As soon as she closed her eyes in the waiting hall, her head rested on Shican's shoulder. The phone in her hand was not even locked, and it looked like it was about to fall from her hand.
Shi Can picked up his phone, locked the screen, and stuffed it into the small bag Lin Zhuyue was carrying. He let Lin Zhuyue rest her head on his phone while he looked up at the flight information on the screen.
He smelled a fresh and soft floral scent, probably the scent of shampoo.
Shi Can raised his phone while trying his best to avoid moving his shoulders, turned the camera around, and took a photo of himself and Lin Zhuyue.
When the photo snapped, Shi Can nearly fell off his chair in fright. Luckily, Lin Zhuyue was a relatively deep sleeper and didn't notice the slightest noise.
It was not until boarding started that Shi Can woke Lin Zhuyue up.
Lin Zhuyue, who had just woken up, had blurry eyes and was in a daze. She stopped after walking a few steps. Shi Can had no choice but to come back and hold her hand, lead her through the boarding passage, and put her in the seat printed on her boarding pass.
Lin Zhuyue took out his cell phone, unlocked it, and turned it off.
She tilted her head and asked, "Are your shoulders sore?"
“No hard feelings.”
Shi Can raised his hand and pinched the shoulder that Lin Zhuyue had rested her head on, and told her in a relaxed tone,
"I was more worried that your saliva would flow onto my clothes, but fortunately, although the robot vacuum parked illegally this time, it parked properly and didn't spit out water."
Lin Zhuyue really wanted to pinch Shi Can.
The plane took off quickly. Lin Zhuyue chewed the gum that Shi Can handed to her. The refreshing mint scent gradually cleared her sleepy brain.
Shi Can propped up the small table, opened his notebook, and tapped on the keyboard with his slender fingers, writing the mission report.
In the afternoon, they landed in Linhai City.
After being picked up by the driver and taken back to Tiancheng, Lin Zhuyue returned to Dormitory Building No. 2, intending to get a good night's sleep. The short nap she had taken earlier wasn't enough to dispel her fatigue and sleepiness, so she rolled around in bed and quickly fell asleep.
Xiaoyu is concentrating on showing off cat food.
This time, when Lin Zhuyue left the island, she didn't have time to send it to Shican's house. It happened that Baguette seemed to be unwell and needed to be isolated for observation. Shican didn't let the housekeeper take Xiaoyu home, but asked the housekeeper to come to feed the cat and clean up its poop.
After eating the cat food, it jumped onto the bed, nestled beside Lin Zhuyue's neck, and slept quietly with Lin Zhuyue.
Shi Can brought a roast chicken and went to the Yunlin Guesthouse.
Shi Can had just gotten off the car when Tu Shan Yunlin was already standing at the door of the guesthouse, staring at the food box in his hand with shining eyes.
Tushan Yunlin is an old fox spirit who has been a spirit for more than a thousand years. Although he is trapped in a human body due to sacrifice, he still retains some fox characteristics, such as his obsession with chicken.
"Oh, I can smell it from so far away. It smells so good."
Tushan Yunlin took the food box from Shican and said,
"What do you want to buy? I'll give you a discount."
He turned around and walked back to the guesthouse, introducing the various things he had recently collected as he walked:
"This perfume, just spray it on yourself, and when you look in the mirror at night, you'll see your face transformed into a paper doll. Funny, right? You loved these kinds of pranks when you were little."
Shi Can nodded and said:
"Really? It does sound interesting. I'll buy it and spray it on Ye Yangjia when I get home."
Shi Can changed the subject and said:
"But I'm not really here to buy anything this time. I'm just here to ask you, do you want to take me in as a disciple?"
Tushan Yunlin asked, "Do you want to be my disciple?"
"No, I want Lin Zhuyue to become your disciple."
Shi Can opened the cap of the perfume and sprayed it on his wrist. He sniffed his wrist and asked,
"The scent is pretty good. Can't you just make a normal perfume and develop and launch it normally? Why go with such a sinister effect?"
"If this is your intention, I have to see you off."
Tushan Yunlin grabbed the perfume, closed the lid, and said,
"And that Ming Hui guy wants to be her master, right? You want me to snatch his apprentice from him?"
Shi Can asked, "Are you afraid of Minghui?"
Tushan Yunlin rolled his eyes and asked:
"Am I afraid of Ming Hui? I'm afraid of the trouble Ming Hui will bring. And it's not just him who's going to cause me trouble. Do you know, kid, that if you get involved with that girl from the Ling family, your life will never be peaceful?"
"Oh, yes, I asked for nothing. You've been dragged into trouble so many times, and you seem to enjoy it."
“Return and risk are generally positively correlated.”
Shi Chan pulled out a chair and sat down, persuading,
"You also know that she is a descendant of the Ling family. Once her mission is completed, the Ling family will return to the top of the aristocratic families. If you are willing to be her master, you will definitely get the benefits. Don't you like money very much? Are you sure you want to leave this money unearned?" The money-loving old vixen: "..."
Five minutes later, Tushan Yunlin left the roast chicken and kicked Shican out.
Shi Can was not annoyed.
He has been very patient in the past six months because of Lin Zhuyue's torment. He also knows that persuading Tushan Yunlin to agree to accept him as a disciple is not something that can be done with just a few words or overnight. Good things take time, so he will continue to work hard to persuade this old fox.
Lin Zhuyue was really sleep deprived. She slept until the next morning. She even wanted to sleep for another day, but she couldn't. Today was Monday and she had to go to the classroom for class.
She added a large spoonful of cat food to Xiaoyu, changed the water, and then went out with her shoulder backpack.
When Lin Zhuyue entered the classroom, most of the students had already arrived. Everyone seemed to be particularly interested in chatting this morning, and they gathered in groups of three or five to discuss something.
"The new head teacher has taken over Class 1."
Shi Can stood up, let Lin Zhuyue sit in, and said,
"I heard he's a very experienced spiritualist with great qualifications. I hope he's not too strict, or I'll have a hard time in the future."
Lin Zhuyue nodded and asked, "How's the baguette?"
"It vomited last night. I was a little worried, so I asked the housekeeper to take it to the 24-hour pet hospital in Linhai City for treatment. The doctor said it was because it ate too much."
Shi Can couldn't help but complain,
"I even woke up Mr. Feng Wu from his sleep last night to start the boat because of this. After he found out the cat was fine, he called me and started scolding me."
"The baguette is such a fat cat. After the doctor saw it, he asked the housekeeper if it was pregnant with kittens. He said judging by its belly, there must be more than three."
Shi Chan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry last night.
After chatting, the new head teacher arrived in the classroom ten minutes before class started.
The new head teacher was a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing glasses. He had hair about a finger long, parted in the middle with a hint of white hair. His facial features were very gentle, though he was a bit serious.
He wrote his name on the blackboard:
"Dear students, my name is Duan Junheng. You can call me Teacher Duan or Old Duan. From now on, I will take over Teacher Fu's work and spend the remaining four years with you."
The higher-ups seemed to have taken Lin Zhuyue's uniqueness into consideration, and when arranging a new head teacher for Class 1, Grade 3 of the Advanced Department, they specially chose a spiritual master without a family background.
"Let me be frank. I don't have the same good temper as Teacher Fu, so I'm not as tolerant of students as he is. I hope you can all behave yourself and not get into trouble. If you do, I will punish you severely."
Duan Junheng paused and added,
"Of course, I'm your teacher. No matter how serious the matter is, as long as you are not at fault, I will stand firmly by your side."
The brief self-introduction ended quickly and the second week of classes officially began.
In the second week, they will learn "how to deal with emergencies if they encounter a robbed tomb."
Wen Miyan whispered to Lin Zhuyue:
"Do you know what the teacher taught us before?"
Lin Zhuyue asked: "How did you teach it?"
Shi Can also lowered his voice and said:
"Run quickly, don't even look back."
Lin Zhuyue: "..."
The tomb chamber is a place where yin is nurtured and gathered. If the soul of the tomb owner does not dissipate when he dies, but sleeps in the cemetery, it can easily be trained into a very powerful ghost, the kind that ordinary spiritualists cannot deal with at all.
If a tomb is robbed or vandalized by someone who doesn't know the ropes, the tomb owner might be woken up. When he wakes up and sees a hole in his house, he will naturally be very angry and want to tear the person who disturbed him in half.
When the spiritual master arrived, the tomb owner's anger might not have subsided yet. In the eyes of the tomb owner, the spiritual master might be no different from the group of tomb robbers who demolished his house, so he simply dealt with them together.
The first day of class in the second week was about learning about the tomb.
Duan Junheng divided the tombs into several eras and talked about the tomb structures of tomb owners of different classes.
Lin Zhuyue felt dizzy after hearing this.
After school, Lin Zhuyue followed Shi Can towards the Shi family mansion. She hoped that Shi Can could explain to her the knowledge about the tomb structure again.
Wen Miyan and Ye Yangjia also took the same route.
"Speaking of which..."
Shi Can suddenly spoke,
"Do you feel that Teacher Duan seems to dislike me?"
"Dude, with your ability to stir up trouble, how many faculty members wouldn't hate you?"
Ye Yangjia hooked his arm around Shi Can's neck and asked,
"And you need the teacher's favor?"
Shi Can shook his head:
"...No, not this kind of disgusting thing."
Shi Can stopped, turned around and looked at the Spiritual Master Mansion building.
Behind the one-way glass, Duan Junheng looked down at Shi Can who had already walked away, and their eyes met.
"Teacher Duan, do you feel comfortable teaching this class?"
Principal Feng came over and greeted us.
"Let's have lunch together. It's my treat."
"Thank you, Principal Feng."
Duan Junheng retracted his gaze and said politely,
"Let's eat together another day. I have some food left at home and I need to go back and finish it."
