Chapter 58: The Little Cuties In the Yard

In the awkward atmosphere, Jiang Beiran did some pruning on all the flowers and plants in Shi Fenglans yard. After the sky turned completely dark, he brought Yu Ling Long back to the Purple Bamboo Garden at the back of the mountain.

He carefully transplanted the Yu Ling Long into the yard. He then took out a green cloth bag from the storage ring and sprinkled some black powder into the soil.

The black powder quickly melted and seeped into the soil when it touched the soil.

Almost none of the flowers in Shi Fenglans yard were well-nourished, and this pot of Yu Ling Long was no exception. Therefore, Jiang Beiran had to nurture it to the most perfect state so that it could be used as a medicine ingredient.

When the color of the soil slowly turned yellow, Jiang Beiran was sure that the black powder had taken effect. Then, he began to inspect the other flowers and plants in the yard.

Hmm the seven-star flower is growing quite well. I just need to fertilize it again in two days. The purple clouds should be pollinating soon. Lets move it to another place tomorrow.

Good. Youre already a mature purple calyx. You need to learn how to absorb the spiritual essence on your own.

Jiang Beiran stood up and looked at the hundreds of flowers in the yard. He was full of a sense of accomplishment. He had spent a lot of effort to collect all these from the various state capitals.

Finally, Jiang Beiran poured some spirit water on them and walked to the other side of the yard. Compared to the fragrance from the neighboring yard, the courtyard here appeared much more desolate. The entire yard was filled with bottles and jars of various colors.

He walked forward and picked up a white porcelain jar. Jiang Beiran placed it on a shelf to the side and opened the kraft paper that was sealed on it.

Along with a series of soft and wordy voices, the Black Meteor Centipede that Jiang Beiran had brought back earlier slowly poked its head out.

How is it? The environment here is not bad, right?

The Black Meteor Centipede waved its two antennae as if it understood something. Then, it slowly poked its body out again.

Jiang Beiran took out a small purple bottle from his storage ring. He poured some black mosquito powder into his palm and extended it towards the Black Meteor Centipede.

The Black Meteor Centipede first used its antennae to sense for a while, then carefully climbed onto Jiang Beirans palm and began to swallow the powder in large mouthfuls.

Its much easier to train than it I thought. It seems that it doesnt have much attachment for the Temple of the Asura.

After the Black Meteor Centipede finished eating all the black mosquito powder, Jiang Beiran let it crawl back into the white porcelain jar.

Jiang Beiran filled the white porcelain jar with the Black Meteor Centipedes favorite brown silt and maple rotten leaves. In addition to the abundant spiritual essence environment in the back mountain, the Black Meteor Centipede was obviously living comfortably.

After putting the white porcelain jar back to its original position, Jiang Beiran checked on the other little cuties. He also collected the poison of the poison arrow frog, the back needle of the scorpion tail, the red flood dragon fangs, and other precious materials.

Sigh, this place is still not big enough. I have to get the flower seeds from Order Master Shi and the batch of cuties that are about to be transported back. Im afraid the spiritual essence in this courtyard is not enough.

However, things would work out when the time came. Jiang Beiran did not think too much and started the next task. In the next few days, other than going to the Mirror Garden to take care of the flowers, Jiang Beiran returned to the daily routine that he was familiar with. He felt extremely comfortable.

One afternoon, Jiang Beiran was having his lunch in the cafeteria when he saw Junyu walking straight towards him.

Sigh, I still cant avoid it in the end

Sighing, Jiang Beiran quickly finished the few remaining vegetables on his plate.

Brother Jiang, Order Master asked me to find you. Okay, lead the way. After saying that, Jiang Beiran stood up and followed Junyu out of the cafeteria.

They were still meeting up at Zixi Garden. Before Jiang Beiran could knock on the door, the door creaked open, and a pair of big hands reached out and pulled him in.

Bang. After closing the sandalwood door, Zhang Heqing held Jiang Beirans hand and said, I knew you could do it. You are indeed the most outstanding disciple of the Order of Blue Heart.

Huh?

A big question mark appeared on Jiang Beirans head. He had thought of all kinds of excuses along the way, but things turned out quite differently as he had imagined.

Looking at Jiang Beirans blank look, Zhang Heqing slapped Jiang Beirans shoulder and said, Stop pretending. Law Protector Yu has already come to look for me. You should tell me earlier after you settled the thing. It made me anxious these two days Oh, no, I was worried about you. Law Protector Yu?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Beiran finally understood. Law Protector Yu must have come and agreed to the cooperation.

Didnt you say you would understand my difficulties? Why did you stab me in the back all of a sudden? Jiang Beiran, who had a headache, recalled every single detail of his interactions with Yu Manwen over the past few days. He immediately felt that there was a high chance that she would take revenge on him.

Sigh, the management of the Sect of Returning Hearts loves to abuse their power. Also, Law Protector Yu, youve really disappointed me. Jiang Beiran complained in his heart.

Come, come, sit. What do you want to drink? Pulling Jiang Beiran to the tea table, Zhang Heqing took out a few porcelain bottles and placed them in front of Jiang Beiran with a smile on his face, Come, Pine Conch, Huoqing, Green Snow. These are all excellent tier tea leaves from my collection. Feel free to choose any of them.

There was no use in crying over for split milk, so Jiang Beiran had no choice but to face it calmly. He chose the green porcelain bottle that had Green Snow.

Good taste! Zhang Heqing gave Jiang Beiran a thumbs up. He then opened the porcelain bottle and poured some into the teapot.

After Zhang Heqing poured the hot water in, the fragrance of the tea instantly filled the air. Jiang Beiran praised, What a good tea! Its shaped like a sparrows tongue and has white hair. Its taste smooth, tender, and has a wonderful fragrance. May I know where you bought this tea?

Hehe, I wont tell this to an ordinary person, but youre an exception, Ill write down the address for you later.

Thank you, Order Master.

After thanking him, Jiang Beiran couldnt help but sigh in his heart. In the past, when he came to Zhang Heqings place for tea, he had also asked about the origin of the tea. However, this Order Master would usually use various excuses to avoid his question. Unexpectedly, Zhang Heqing actually told him where to buy the tea. It seemed like Zhang Heqing was in an incredibly good mood.

Soon, two cups of fragrant tea were brewed, after taking a sip, Zhang Heqing looked at Jiang Beiran and asked, Oh, by the way, according to our agreement, I will carve out another piece of land for you at the back of the mountain. Dont worry, it will definitely have more spiritual essence than the piece you have now.

I didnt expect that thing would go so smoothly. Jiang Beiran thought.

Two days ago, he was still worried that his place was not big enough. Today, an even better piece of land was delivered to his doorstep.

Its just that the transportation fee is a little expensive.

When he thought about the fact that he would have to frequent the Order of Water Mirror, where 70% of the disciples were female, Jiang Beiran could not help but feel his scalp go numb.

After thanking Order Master Zhang, Jiang Beiran picked up the teacup and took a sip. Immediately, he felt that the taste of the tea was extremely mellow, filling his entire mouth with a refreshing fragrance. Seeing the satisfied look on Jiang Beirans face, Zhang Heqing said, Beiran, since you were the one who facilitated this cooperation, you have to pay more attention to this matter in the future.

Sigh, I knew he would not let me drink his tea for free. Jiang Beiran muttered in his heart.
