After handing over all the necessary tasks to Little Seven, Jiang Beiran asked him to go look for Shen Tianhua.
Picking up the teacup, Jiang Beiran walked to the window and pushed it open to look at the busy street below. Not long after, Shen Tianhua and Little Seven, who was dressed in black, walked out of the teahouse and quickly blended into the crowd.
Don’t disappoint me, Little Seven. Jiang Beiran muttered in his heart.
After all, his expectations for Little Seven were not limited to this. If Little Seven came to him for help for such a mission, then he would be very disappointed, very, very disappointed.
After leaving the teahouse, Jiang Beiran sat on the auspicious cloud and went to the Shi family home.
Now that he had the identity of the Sage Token, Jiang Beiran could enter and leave the Shi Residence freely.
Under the respectful gazes of the two guards, Jiang Beiran went to the Sage Residence.
Two days ago, he had received a letter from Shi Weiyi, informing him that he had made preliminary arrangements for the disciples of Xuan Workshop.
As the letter did not seem to be in a hurry, Jiang Beiran replied with a letter stating that he had some matters to attend to and could only go later. Shi Weiyi also replied very quickly, telling Jiang Beiran that there was no hurry and that he could take his time.
He learned that the Sage was in his residence today, and Jiang Beiran met Shi Weiyi in a vast courtyard under the guidance of his attendants.
“Are you done with your work?” Shi Weiyi, who was leisurely admiring the flowers, turned around and asked Jiang Beiran.
“Yes, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, Sage.”
“No worries.” Waving his hand, Shi Weiyi reached out his hand and stroked the leaves of a blue flower, saying, “Beiran, what do you think of the flowers in my courtyard?”
Jiang Beiran looked around and nodded. ‘”‘The flowers are surrounded by colorful purple and red flowers. It can be said that the scenery here is unique.”
“Hahahaha, good! What a good name, Qi Hua Pieces of Sticky Jade Grass. Bei Ran’s words were indeed pleasant to the ears.”After a few laughs, Shi Weiyi waved at Jiang Beiran and said,'”‘Come, I’ll take you to see some good treasures.”
“It’s my honor.” Jiang Beiran cupped his hands at Shi Weiyi and followed him into the depths of the garden.
From the first time he met Shi Weiyi, Jiang Beiran had realized that the sage was very fond of flowers. His room was filled with rare herbs, and they were obviously carefully cultivated.
Now that he had seen the courtyard, Jiang Beiran was even more certain that this was a flower lover.
Walking along the flowery path to the depths of the courtyard, Jiang Beiran
discovered even more rare flowers, some of which were even famous in the rare and exotic books.
In comparison, the ten thousand flowers in the Ten Thousand Flower Valley are simply lonely. In terms of quality, they are completely outclassed by this courtyard.’
Looking around, Jiang Beiran quickly spotted a peculiar black flower. If he was not mistaken, it should be the Golden Phoenix Ghost Orchid, ranked fifty-two on the Rare Treasures List.
The flower was one of the main ingredients for the ninth-grade pill, the Tiangang Earth Restoration Pill. Jiang Beiran was very envious of it.
However, the roots of the Golden Phoenix Ghost Orchid that Shi Weiyi had been raising were already showing some problems. It was gradually unable to absorb Spiritual Qi. According to Jiang Beiran’s professional opinion, the flower would begin to wither in less than 30 days.
Jiang Beiran instantly understood why Shi Weiyi had brought him here.
Shi Weiyi was a flower lover, and he had grown so many rare herbs. There was no reason why he could not tell that there was something wrong with his Golden Phoenix Ghost Orchid. It was just that he could not ” cure ” it himself, so he had tried to call Jiang Beiran to take a look.
Even the high-end skills of array formations and alchemy were explained, so there was naturally no need to hide the flowers.
Therefore, Jiang Beiran took the initiative to walk up to the Golden Phoenix Ghost Orchid and said,””The Sage is indeed remarkable. There are such strange flowers planted in the courtyard. This junior is very envious.”
It seems like Bei Ran is also a flower lover.” Shi Weiyi smiled and said,” I didn’t expect him to recognize this rare flower at a glance.'”‘
“Just a little.” After saying that, Jiang Beiran suddenly squatted down and pretended to observe the Golden Phoenix Ghost Orchid carefully. After a while, he said,””Sage, there seems to be something wrong with the roots of your Golden Phoenix Ghost Orchid. If it is not treated in time, it might hurt its origin.”
Shi Weiyi revealed his signature smile.” Hohoho, Bei Ran is indeed Bei Ran. You saw through the problem with my flower at a glance. Then, I’ll be frank with you. This time, I brought you here to ask if you have any way to cure it. If you can really cure it, I’ll definitely give you a good gift in return.”
Sage, what are you saying? It’s my job to help you with some trivial matters. The problem of the Golden Phoenix Ghost Orchid is not difficult to solve. Just give me two days.”
“Alright, with your words, I’m relieved. I’ll leave this matter to you.”
At this point, Shi Weiyi no longer lamented Jiang Beiran’s many talents. After all, this young man had already brought him too many surprises. Even if someone told him that Jiang Beiran was proficient in all the 16 Arts of Xuanmen, Shi Weiyi would not be too surprised.
Moreover, Jiang Beiran had already formed an alliance with the Shi family. Naturally, they hoped that he would be as powerful as possible.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a waste of the Xian Token that they wouldn’t easily give away?
After solving a problem, Shi Weiyi pointed to a pavilion not far away and said,””Let’s put the matter of the flowers aside for the time being. Let’s go and talk about serious matters.”
“Yes.”
Sitting in the pavilion, Shi Weiyi took out a booklet and pushed it in front of
Jiang Beiran, saying, “”This has recorded all the places I’ve arranged for them..”
