Chapter 53 Disrupting the Event [Part 1]
Most things in the world can be solved with money.
After Lin Ye found a brokerage firm and said that money was not a problem, the firm's owner happily took Lin Ye to see the house.
Before me stood a striking compound with high walls. The tall and sturdy walls separated it from the outside world, making it seem like an independent little world.
Moss and vines grow quietly on the walls, adding a touch of natural charm to this majestic fortress.
The vermilion gate was tightly closed, and the stone lions on both sides stood majestically.
In the corner of the courtyard, there is a fish pond covering an area of 4 square meters, which is like a bright pearl embedded in the pond.
The pond water was crystal clear, and a gentle breeze rippled across it. Fish swam leisurely in the pond, their colors a vibrant mix of red, gold, and black. They darted among the water plants and leaped out of the water, splashing up sparkling droplets.
Around the fishpond, stones of various shapes were carefully arranged, some smooth and round, others rugged and protruding.
Several lush aquatic plants peeked out from the cracks in the rocks, adding a touch of vitality and wildness to the scene.
The house is simple and elegant, with a simple yet grand appearance, and the flying eaves and brackets showcasing exquisite craftsmanship.
Upon entering the house, the spacious hall is high and open, with exquisitely carved patterns on the beams and pillars, telling tales of its former glory. The numerous rooms are rationally laid out, from the opulent bedroom to the elegant study, from the spacious dining room to the tranquil tea room, each reflecting the owner's prestige and taste.
After inspecting the place, Lin Ye was very satisfied and immediately made a decision, paying six months' rent in one lump sum and asking the landlady to find someone to clean it properly.
……
At the same time, Tang San entered Soto City.
His soul power has now reached level 27.
For the past six years, he has lived a fulfilling life, practicing his cultivation every morning and working at a blacksmith's shop in Nottingham in the afternoons to earn money.
But there wasn't a trace of a smile on his face.
He was unhappy, not happy at all.
I don't know why, but over the years, some inexplicable things have always happened to him.
For example, bird droppings would fall from the sky; or, he'd be sleeping soundly in the middle of the night when his bed would inexplicably collapse. Another time, while he was forging iron, the hammer head detached from the wooden handle and struck his foot…
Such unfortunate events are countless.
This made him feel as if he were cursed by the god of misfortune.
His teacher, Yu Xiaogang, also experienced the same misfortune.
Tang San really didn't know how to evaluate this teacher.
He realized that his bad luck only started after he met his teacher.
This made him wonder countless times in private if his teacher was a jinx.
Moreover, due to the 10-year spirit ring, he and Yu Xiaogang gradually drifted apart.
However, Yu Xiaogang later found a Soul Master with a plant-based martial soul to conduct an experiment. After that person absorbed the soul ring of an animal-based soul beast, no abnormalities occurred, and the age of the soul ring did not decrease.
Yu Xiaogang proved his theory to be correct with facts.
As for why his spirit rings lost their age limit, Yu Xiaogang explained that his martial spirit had a problem and contained some unknown defect.
After that incident, the relationship between the master and disciple was able to improve.
Over the years, Yu Xiaogang has treated his disciple Tang San better than his own father; he is incredibly filial.
This led Tang San to gradually accept him again.
This time, it was Shrek Academy that Yu Xiaogang recommended to him.
However, Yu Xiaogang went to the capital and couldn't come with him.
Let's get back to the present.
Soto was larger and more prosperous than Nottingham, where he had previously lived.
However, Tang San had no interest in these things. Smelling the stench of sweat on his body, all he wanted now was to find a place to stay and take a proper bath.
After a while, perhaps by fate, Tang San arrived at the Rose Hotel.
"Hello, could you please give me a room?"
"Sir, are you alone?" The clerk asked, seeing that he had come alone.
Tang San nodded, then asked somewhat impatiently, "Is there a problem?"
The receptionist said, "No problem, but we only have one room left in our hotel."
This time, there was indeed only one room left, and it was the most expensive "Red Ocean" suite.
Tang San didn't feel anything was wrong and directly booked the Red Ocean Suite. However, when the other party quoted the price, he immediately felt a pang of pain in his wallet.
It costs 10 gold soul coins in just one night.
It should be noted that after he became a Great Soul Master, the subsidy he received from the Spirit Hall each month was only 10 gold soul coins.
Fortunately, he only stayed for one day.
After paying the room fee, Tang San took the key and went up to the top floor. He wanted to see why this house was so expensive.
The moment he opened the door, he felt a pang of unease. So this was a couples' hotel! No wonder all the couples he'd seen earlier were couples coming and going.
Why would a single guy like him come to a love hotel?
The next day, early in the morning, Lin Ye called Hyotei and they went out.
Of course, Lin Qiu'er wasn't left out either; she usually spent most of her time with Lin Ye.
After leaving the hotel, the two took off and flew south.
"Hey, you still haven't said where you're going. Didn't we already find a place yesterday?" Hyotei only remembered this question after leaving the house.
He was dragged out by this brat, and he didn't even know what he was doing.
"Let's go cause trouble."
"Disrupt the event?" Hyotei asked in surprise, "Disrupt whose event?"
Lin Ye chuckled and said, "Isn't Flander trying to lure me into Shrek Academy in a roundabout way? Well then, I'll go along with it."
"I see. Hmph, just look at that fatso and his teacher, and you'll know Shrek Academy isn't any better." Mentioning Shrek Academy reminded Hyotei of Ma Hongjun and his apprentice, and her face immediately filled with disgust.
Lin Ye nodded, "That's why they say you become like those you associate with."
Flander, that old geezer, once said, "Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre." And those Shrek students actually treat that as gospel truth. Isn't that ridiculous?
Hyotei's face turned frosty upon hearing this. "No wonder that fatso was so arrogant."
Lin Ye laughed and said, "With Flanders protecting them in this small territory of Soto City, they do have the right to be arrogant and domineering. Others can only swallow their anger when they are bullied by them."
"Luckily, that fatso messed with you this time, otherwise who knows how long he'd be so arrogant."
The thought that Ma Hongjun had become a eunuch made Lin Ye want to laugh.
"Speaking of which, he insulted you like that, why did you still hold back?"
Hyotei said in a low voice, "Didn't you tell me to restrain myself?"
Several big question marks appeared above Lin Ye's head.
Did I say that? Thinking about it carefully, it seems I really did, but that was when Hyotei first came to human society.
