Chapter 523: Chapter 529: Look! The Iron Tree is Blooming! (First Update)
“Huh?” Yang Zhen looked strangely at the old man, who was shaking his head, and asked curiously, “Fellow villager, everything I said is true, how is it ridiculous?”
The old man was immaculate in attire and hairstyle, every bit of him meticulous, resembling a devoted scholar. Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, he snorted faintly, “You are young, why do you exaggerate so much? You should know that practising the path should be steady and earnest. That is the proper way.”
Then he changed his tone, staring at Yang Zhen he said, “Let me ask you this, you said you know Yang Zhen, and know that many girls fall for him. Do you pay close attention to him?”
The people around saw the serious look on the old man’s face, showing amused expressions.
“Everything about Master Tie is good, a real gentleman, but he can’t stand even the slightest fault, especially ambitious young people.”
“The boy is unlucky. He chose the wrong time to speak and about Yang Zhen of all people! Doesn’t he know that Master Tie dislikes Yang Zhen’s non-conformist character?”
“It’s over, Brother Zhou, let’s hit the road after finishing our tea. Master Tie is frightening. He can preach all day.”
“Indeed, indeed.”
Hearing the surrounding chatter, Yang Zhen realized he had encountered a stickler. Master Tie’s demeanor was more than familiar to Yang Zhen.
This was precisely the typical template of a teacher or a boss.
Looking at Master Tie’s gaze, Yang Zhen cheerfully said, “You’re mistaken, my good man. I don’t constantly follow Yang Zhen.”
There was nothing wrong with what Yang Zhen said. How could he constantly follow himself? He occasionally remembered his own existence, that’s all.
Upon hearing this, Master Tie was stunned and speechless. “Hmph, even if you don’t constantly follow Yang Zhen, you have wasted too much time indulging in hearsay. You have a dignified look, and your behavior reveals a carefree attitude. You must have talent. If such a born aptitude, you should cultivate diligently so as to live up to the divine favor on you.”
Yang Zhen was quick to nod, saying, “Absolutely right, my family elders told me the same. I didn’t expect you to hit the nail on the head. Listening to you, it’s like studying and understanding a lifetime’s worth of wisdom. It’s even better than my ten-time realizations.”
The crowd around them looked at Yang Zhen in disbelief, muttering, “Damn, this kid really has no shame.”
“Look, it’s like iron-tree blooming.”
“Oh, it’s the first time I’ve seen a smile on Master Tie’s face.”
Master Tie looked at Yang Zhen in shock, his smile growing more obvious. Suddenly, he burst into hearty laughter, patted Yang Zhen on the shoulder and said, “Young man, don’t overstate. Listening to my words is better than studying for hundred years, as you claim, is too exaggerated.”
Yang Zhen blushed a little, embarrassed, he said, “Yes, you’re right. I overstated it a bit. However, listening to your words is definitely better than studying for ten years. It’s enlightening.”
“Hehehe, may I know your name, young friend, and whom you are apprenticed to?”
“Hehe, my good man, I go by Yang Dianfeng. The Yang from Yang Zhen, The Dian and Feng both from ‘Dianfeng.’”
“Huh, Yang Zhen?” Master Tie snorted coldly and his face fell. “I have taken a liking to you, Young Master Yang. It’s better if you don’t mention Yang Zhen in front of me.”
Yang Zhen looked strangely at Master Tie and asked in surprise, “Why don’t you like Yang Zhen?”
“What’s there to like about someone who fishes for fame?” Master Tie glared, seemingly disliking Yang Zhen, who fished for fame, and continued, “This child has an eccentric disposition, self-centered, and always overambitious, allowing his great talent to go to waste. Actually, I have nothing against him. I’ve never even met him. It’s just that my grandson is now in a bad place thanks to Yang Zhen.”
Yang Zhen startled, widened his eyes and said, “Fellow villager, you can make a mess when you eat, but you can’t just say anything you want. As far as I know, Yang Zhen is not the kind of man who would harm the innocents.”
“He doesn’t harm?” Master Tie’s face turned livid. He scanned around as if looking for someone. “That little rascal worships Yang Zhen like a never-ending river. He talks about him all day long. Even I, his grandfather, can’t say a word against Yang Zhen. Now, he won’t even come to see me. Even when he does, he keeps mentioning Yang Zhen. It’s driving me… anyways, why am I telling you this? As young generations, it would be good for you to meet my grandson. You’re persuasive, help me talk to him.”
Yang Zhen marveled. He didn’t expect that such a low key person like him would have such a small fan. If that little rascal doesn’t come back, maybe he could meet him.
When he thought about the little rascal, Yang Zhen got angry.
Damn it, this scoundrel, after parting with Ji Yourong and the others, Yang Zhen was heading to the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain with the little rascal but, unexpectedly, this scoundrel just left a note and ran away.
“Boy, this sovereign is going to check whether the ban on the treasure has been lifted. If not, even if you and I pull out all the stops, we won’t be able to get in. You go to the Heavenly Snow Holy Domain, this sovereign will come find you.”
Listen, listen, this scoundrel’s tone is getting worse and worse, now he learned to run away from home.
Yang Zhen pondered. If not for the tracking method that he secretly learned from Ji Yourong, maybe he wouldn’t have been able to keep track of this scoundrel.
Yes, the little rascal had been here for two days and was staying in the wine house opposite the tea house. However, he went out again just now. After trailing behind for two days, Yang Zhen felt a bit bored, so he started chatting with the fellow villagers.
Unexpectedly, he found a little fan while chatting. This was an unexpected surprise.
The crowd around them saw Yang Zhen chat enthusiastically with Master Tie, and they were dumbfounded.
“What… what on earth is special about Yang Dianfeng? How can he chat with Master Tie for so long?”
“A miracle, it’s a miracle. I always thought no one could engage in a conversation with the stubborn Master Tie for more than three sentences. It had been like this for so many years. Turns out, Yang Dianfeng is indeed extraordinary.”
“Oh my god, they are actually addressing each other as brothers.”
Everyone looked dumbfounded as the two men clinked glasses, laughed heartily from time to time, and gaped at them like they had seen a ghost.
Master Tie’s face was rosy, evidently, he was very happy. “…Kid, your statement, Friends come from afar, though far, need be punished. If your friends heard it, they would definitely want to fight with you. But, never mind, I understand you now, to be able to say such things, you must be extremely loyal to your friends. Just be yourself and don’t emulate Yang Zhen’s notoriety. I appreciate your talent, as does my grandson…”
Yang Zhen sipped his tea, about to speak, when a clatter came from the entrance.
“Grandpa, grandpa, I found it out.”
Master Tie’s face fell immediately.
