298: 239 Night God enrolls!
Principal Zou also joined in, “I’ve heard that Professor Bian’s ntorship cos from a prestigious lineage.
At the age of ten, he could distinguish hundreds of herbs and recognize thousands of plants.
Mastering these plants is not sothing one can achieve casually; it requires years of accumulation…”
Xia Yuzheng was truly hearing about this for the first ti.
Previously, he only knew Professor Bian as a famous botanist in Capital City, a renowned professor at Beijing University.
Only today did he learn that he actually hailed from a distinguished lineage.
If Yeye could follow him, she would definitely learn a lot.
Xia Yuzheng, “The Ancestral Master of the old gentleman must not be an ordinary person.”
Elder Han said seriously, “Of course, I heard the old gentleman refer to his Ancestral Master as the Shennong Fairy.”
During the conversation, Professor Bian ca out of his office, his hair graying, dressed in a moon-white lab coat, with a pair of fine-frad reading glasses perched on his nose.
He was dressed the sa as during the last exchange day.
Seeing the plant Xia Yuzheng brought this ti, his eyes lit up again.
Everyone had already gotten used to the fact that Xia Yuzheng had many unusual and ancient plants.
Professor Bian carefully examined the plant’s leaves, stems, and the vigorous root system that could be felt through the soil, “Is this another one your little daughter ‘picked’ up?”
Xia Yuzheng just smiled.
Everyone knew that it couldn’t really have been ‘picked up.’
How could she simply ‘pick up’ so many pots of plants that others struggle to obtain even one of?
mbers around were discussing this plant, and Xia Yuzheng took this opportunity to discuss important matters with Professor Bian, “Old sir, I’d long heard of your teaching at the Departnt of Biodical Sciences at Beijing University.
This year, my little daughter just got admitted into your prestigious departnt.
I hope you will take good care of her in the future…”
Before he could finish, Professor Bian chuckled and nodded slowly, “What’s her na?”
Professor Bian was actually already an honorary professor at Beijing University, but he still insisted on teaching.
However, the courses he taught were not ordinary; they were usually observation reports on special plants by top students, or collaborative research.
Among the many professors in the Departnt of Biodical Sciences, his status was undeniably high.
There were quite a few parents who wished for his help in looking after their children, but there were very few who he would promptly ask for the student’s na.
It had helped that Xia Yuzheng had co to the exchange etings a few tis, which made Professor Bian extrely interested in the rare treasures in Xia Ye’s possession, and by extension, in Xia Ye herself.
Hearing this, Xia Yuzheng relaxed imdiately, promptly giving his daughter’s na, “My little girl’s na is Xia Ye, ‘Xia’ as in sumr, and ‘Ye’ as in night.
Thank you for your trouble, old sir.”
Xia Ye, huh…
The na is nice, quite full of Spiritual Energy.
Professor Bian, hand behind his back and the other stroking his invisible beard, looked utterly tranquil, “Rest assured, no student capable of getting into Beijing University’s Departnt of Biodical Sciences will trouble their parents, and besides, this isn’t your first ti sending a child to university.
Haven’t you already raised three excellent university graduate sons before?”
Xia Yuzheng wore the worried expression of an old father, “Ah, sons are of course not worriso, but sending off my precious daughter this ti, the feeling is definitely different…”
When he ntioned his three sons, his tone was almost dismissive, as if they were picked up from sowhere, but when talking about his daughter, the feeling imdiately changed.
Professor Bian, having neither daughters nor granddaughters, naturally couldn’t understand this sentint.
Xia Yuzheng didn’t elaborate further, just politely smiled, “Anyway, with the old sir’s help in the future, my wife and I can be at ease at ho.”
Professor Bian nodded, took many photos of the plant he brought, and after obtaining permission, also plucked a leaf as a specin.
…
After the exchange eting was over, Professor Bian returned to his office, sat back down and took out a key to open the middle drawer, from which he retrieved a book bound in an ancient style and yellowed with age.
This book was hundreds of years old, and Professor Bian had to be very careful when flipping through it, as applying too much force could cause the pages to crumble to dust.
This was the Treasure To passed down to him by his departed master, purportedly written by the Ancestral Master.
The Ancestral Master traveled across the vast lands, seeing countless peculiar and rare plants.
She depicted each plant in ink in the to, also recording detailed information about their habits, characteristics, and colors.
Professor Bian, struck by a thought, closed his eyes, and flipping to about one third of the way through the Treasure To from mory, then turned a few more pages.
Sure enough, he saw a plant recorded by the Ancestral Master that looked about seventy to eighty percent similar to the one Xia Yuzheng had brought today.
He then pulled out the leaf specin of the blue plant from the last eting from the drawer and leafed through the Treasure To—
