Chapter 28 Revisited Familiar PlacesDaogu Village is not very far from Nuoding City.As they kept approaching the town, the road gradually leveled out, and Ye Feng drove the carriage and arrived at Nuoding City before long.After many years, returning to Nuoding City once again, Ye Feng felt a myriad of emotions in his heart.Arriving in the town, it was already late, so Ye Feng found a decent inn, parked the carriage next to the stable, and booked two adjoining rooms.After traveling for a long time, Jinling was tired; after all, she was just a six-year-old child."Sleep, you've been on the road all day and you're tired too."Jinling obediently nodded, then sat on the bed and fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.How many insomnia sufferers would envy this speed of falling asleep?But..."This is my room, this girl... falling asleep the moment her head hits the pillow..."Ye Feng knew that Jinling did it on purpose. Despite usually looking well-behaved and obedient, she was actually very smart and clever.For a six-year-old child, it was normal to suddenly come to an unfamiliar environment and lack a sense of security.So Ye Feng just carried her back to her room.It also happened to be a good opportunity for Ye Feng to carefully examine her physical condition.As his mental force gradually covered her whole body, the more Ye Feng examined, the more alarmed he became.Relying on his memory, he drew Jinling's internal meridians on a blank piece of paper.He then took out a human meridian chart for comparison.It could be seen that Jinling's degree of mutation was very deep.Compared with an ordinary person's meridians, Jinling's meridians didn't look like a human's at all, leaning more towards a Spirit Beast.But faint traces of human meridians could still be vaguely seen.If an ordinary person's meridians were regarded as an orderly street.Then Jinling's meridians were a road riddled with holes after a major earthquake.In fact, with Ye Feng's methods, it wouldn't be difficult to gradually restore Jinling's meridians to normal little by little.It was just that it would consume a long time, and perhaps by the time Ye Feng became a Titled Douluo, it might still not be restored.If the time was forcibly shortened, it would damage the meridians instead.It could be said that this was a dilemma with no way forward or backward.Even Ye Feng felt a headache for the first time in a long time.Ye Feng thought for a long time without coming up with an answer, so he simply set it aside for now.Anyway, Jinling was only six years old, and there was plenty of time.Ye Feng stroked Yaoguang in his arms, and Yaoguang rubbed against Ye Feng's palm.It was worth mentioning that Yaoguang was allowed to be brought into the inn.In fact, taming Spirit Beasts was allowed; as long as they weren't too dangerous Spirit Beasts, they could be carried around freely.But few people would tame Spirit Beasts, and only nobles would tame some ornamental Spirit Beasts.After all, a Spirit Beast was also a resource that would be snatched by others. No one was willing to let the Spirit Beast they raised with great difficulty be targeted by some family descendant, who would kill the beast to take its ring.The reason Yaoguang was able to be brought in was thanks to the front desk's lack of knowledge, mistaking Yaoguang for an ordinary Spirit Beast.Yaoguang's appearance was also very deceptive; it was too pretty.Among all three hundred and sixty feathered creatures, the Haidongqing was the most majestic and spirited.It was probably recognized as an ornamental Spirit Beast.Ye Feng rubbed Yaoguang's little head and took out a bird's nest from his spirit tool.This was built by Ye Feng using soft animal skins and branches, surrounded into a spherical shape with branches and fine cords, leaving only one exit.This was woven by Ye Feng when he was bored, but unfortunately, Yaoguang didn't seem to like it.Most of the time when sleeping, it would lie on Ye Feng's body.Ye Feng took out a quilt from his spirit tool, preparing to make a floor bed.Ye Feng lay down, and before long, he fell into a deep sleep. In a trance, he felt a shadow fly to his chest.The night passed without incident.The next day, Ye Feng got up very early.In the living room, he repeated Tai Chi over and over again.Over the years, he hadn't stopped for a single day, and it had long become a habit.Yaoguang stood on the table, quietly watching him.By the time he finished his routine, Jinling happened to wake up as well.The two found a restaurant and had breakfast.Ye Feng brought Jinling to a clothing store.Jinling had very few clothes, and they were very old. Although she didn't care herself, Ye Feng cared.For a little girl not to even have as many clothes as him, was that right?Buy! They must buy a lot!Under her master's overbearing might, Jinling began trying on various pretty clothes.She was born pretty to begin with, and paired with gorgeous clothes, the whole room instantly brightened up by several shades.The clerk's praises made her face flush with shyness.In the end, a dozen or so pieces of clothing were packed up.On the way back, Jinling looked at Ye Feng in puzzlement and asked:"Master, why are you buying me so many clothes?"Ye Feng rubbed her little head and said:"Ling'er, what do you think the meaning of life is?"Without waiting for her to answer, Ye Feng continued:"The reason you want to become stronger now is because of your unwillingness.""You attribute your grandmother's death to yourself, so you want to become stronger.""But in fact, even if you weren't caught, your grandmother wouldn't have lived much longer.""You just can't accept her death.""You are still a child, and this is normal. It's just that one day you will walk out of it and calmly accept her departure.""By then, I hope you can have your own hobbies and find what you truly want to do.""So before that, I will take you to experience different lives."Jinling nodded as if she understood yet didn't quite understand.Ye Feng casually bought a stick of candied haws and handed it to her."You're still young now, you'll understand when you grow up."Leaving Jinling and Yaoguang at the inn, after so many days of getting along, Yaoguang no longer treated Jinling with the initial hostility.At least the person and the bird could get along peacefully.Ye Feng came alone to the Nuoding Junior Spirit Master Academy.There weren't many changes here; it was the same as when he left.Ye Feng came here to confirm whether Tang San had left.He didn't dare bring Jinling and Yaoguang; he had to do his best to disguise himself as a student returning home in glory.So that Tang Hao, who he didn't know was still around or not, wouldn't notice anything abnormal.Ye Feng walked straight towards Dormitory Seven. He was originally a member of Dormitory Seven, and it was normal to revisit a familiar place now.It was afternoon, and most of the students were attending classes in the classrooms.Ye Feng pushed open the door of Dormitory Seven and only saw one person whom he didn't recognize.Seeing someone coming, that person greeted him.Ye Feng asked him who the current boss of Dormitory Seven was.He got an unfamiliar name.It seemed that Tang San and Xiao Wu had already left.To be safe, he waited in the library until class ended.He continuously observed the passing students, searching with his naked eyes the entire time without using a shred of mental force.Until the sky gradually darkened, Ye Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, confirming that Tang San had left.According to the timeline, Tang San was twelve years old now and should be heading to Soto City to join Shrek Academy.By then, Tang Hao would also follow Tang San over there.Ye Feng could finally plan for the Blue Silver Emperor Spirit Bone.Returning to the inn, he appeased Jinling and Yaoguang to sleep, and he also gradually drifted off to dreamland.
