Chapter 8 – It’s a loss for studying too well

Editor: SleepyMango123

When the three of them passed by the subway station, they parted ways.

Without Lang Jing Feng’s aura emission device, Bai Ruan calmed down and sorted out what had happened on the subway.

Bai Ruan understood that Lang Jing Feng’s appearance was not a coincidence. His wolf’s hearing was keen, and he must have come to save them after hearing the call for help. After knocking down the gangsters, he helped Zhou Hao Chen regain the robbed money, and threatened to reduce the possibility of several people retaliating against Zhou Hao Chen and Bai Ruan afterwards. All actions showed that Lang Jing Feng was an enthusiastic and righteous student. If this were the case, regarding the truth about the beating teacher incident had its credibility improved from basic to absolute trust.

No matter what wrong things he had done in the past, at least he was a good boy now. Bai Ruan was satisfied and nodded to himself. He had come to a conclusion and quickly swept the remaining little doubt into the trash can.

However, having said that, no matter how good Lang Jing Feng was, he was still a wolf. The fear on the instinctive level would not be easily reduced by the improvement of his character. As Bai Ruan recalled the scene of being in a princess carry by Lang Jing Feng in the alley, his back turned cold.

“Oh…” In fact, he should have taken the opportunity to compliment him just now to give him a feeling of recognition. He was too scared and had forgotten… Bai Ruan drooped his head, and full of self-disgust, he sighed.

Twenty minutes later, Bai Ruan was home.

He first went to the living room to let the baby bunnies out of the cage, and then carried the toy box to the floor and clicked it open. With a crash, all kinds of small dolls and straw toys were scattered on the floor.

The bunnies had a great time playing. Some used their front paws and small noses to roll grass balls, some awkwardly climbed onto the dolls, and then fell off with a clatter. One of the sillier babies who’d not yet awakened their spiritual sense didn’t know how to play and tried to knock the plush doll with its three-petal mouth. It ended up being snatched away by a wiser bunny. Feeling wronged, it rolled twice on the floor and curled up into a bunny ball in the corner of the wall.

Bai Ruan picked up the aggrieved bunny bun, placed it in his palm and rubbed it. The soothed bunny bun flattened out into a little bunny.

“Children have fun, don’t fight.” Bai Ruan put the little bunny back on the ground and threw it a straw ball. No matter whether it could understand or not, he said softly, “You can chew on this straw.”

The little bunny activated its three-petal mouth and squeaked.

After taking care of the bunnies’ meals and cleaning up their fecal balls, Bai Ruan stretched his waist and went to the bathroom to take a bath.

After filling a small pet bath with hot water, Bai Ruan sprinkled a handful of grass-scented bath salt into the water. He used the same kind of food-scented bath salt every time he took a bath and it always made him want to take a bite of himself after he was done. This was the same feeling as when humans would use chocolate-flavored shower gel.

The pet bath was much smaller than the bathtub, so the bath water was ready at a faster rate. Bai Ruan, who was afraid of catching a cold, turned on the heater for the bathroom and placed a bath stool with the same height as the pet bath next to it with various rabbit snacks on the stool. Immediately, Bai Ruan put the hair dryer at the door of the bathroom, folded a bath towel and placed it on the floor in front of the hair dryer. Finally, he took out his mobile phone and placed it on the washstand to play the special bath playlist.

After a series of preparations, Bai Ruan shook his body slightly, and the clothes instantly piled up in a mess on the bathroom floor. Then, a small fluffy white fur ball emerged out of the shirt collar. As white as a handful of fresh snow in early winter, this was Bai Ruan’s original shape.

Bai Ruan, who turned into a small white dumpling, struggled to jump into the pet bath. He shot into the air like a small missile, and when he reached the maximum point, he was pulled down by gravity and quickly hit the water surface. With a pop, water splashed and the bathroom floor was wet.

“Ji!” The small round ball of fluff let out a cheerful cry, unleashing the wildness of a male rabbit!

The slightly hot water helped relax his nerves. Bai Ruan felt that the bones of his front and back legs were soaked, and he simply relaxed his muscles, floating on the water. A small group of white floated lightly in the bathtub, swaying slightly with the water waves. The two slender and small rabbit ears like willow leaves were the only part of Bai Ruan’s body that was not relaxed. At this time, his ears stood upright and energetic, listening to the music, it rose,swang and beat to the rhythm.

After relaxing for a while, Bai Ruan swung his four rabbit paws underwater, swam to the edge of the bathtub, and grabbed the edge of the basin with his two front legs. He leaned out half of his wet body, and picked up a piece of apple wood on the stool. Retracting back into the pet bath, he continued to soak in the hot water comfortably.

This was the reason why animals and plants worked hard to cultivate into spirits. After becoming a spirit, they would not only have a long life, they wouldn’t be afraid of becoming a Chinese meal and would also be able to enjoy all kinds of things invented and produced by humans. Whether it was soaking in the bathtub, having Yuba features¹Yuba is derived from English “BATHROOMMASTER”can be literally translated as “bathroom master”. It is a small household appliance for bath that combines the functions of bathroom heating, infrared physiotherapy, bathroom ventilation, decoration, etc. through the ingenious combination of a special waterproof infrared heat wave tube and a ventilation fan., music, warmth in the bathroom, vegetables, pastures, or rabbit snacks, it could be easily bought by all cultivated animals and plants as they had the right and freedom to do so.

Twenty minutes later, as the water temperature dropped, Bai Ruan had also soaked away his exhaustion. He jumped out of the bathtub with a wet splash, rushed to the door of the bathroom, used his rabbit feet to press the switch of the minimum hot air of the hair dryer, and then jumped onto the folded bath towel in front of the hair dryer. With his white belly hanging on his feet, he let the hot air blow. When the front was blown dry, Bai Ruan turned over, and pointed his fluffy buttocks and round tail at the hair dryer, letting it blow his back.

After a while, Bai Ruan’s whole body was blown dry. He was like fluffy snow, as white as a cloud just picked from the horizon.

Bai Ruan jumped out of the bathroom, hesitating whether to transform into his human form and sleep in his bed or just sleep in a small grass nest tonight. The phone he placed on the washstand suddenly sounded a WeChat alert tone.

Bai Ruan suddenly transformed into a human form, picked up the phone and looked at it. It was a message from Yun Qing.

Yun Qing: “Bouncy, What’s the matter?”

Bai Ruan, whose nickname was Bouncy Bai, brightened his eyes and hurriedly typed: Master, I want to ask you something. A new transfer student came to my class a few days ago, and he’s a wolf demon…　　

Bai Ruan typed a long paragraph to explain the current dilemma clearly, and asked Yun Qing if he could help solve it.

He had just pressed send when a photo came from Yun Qing.

Bai Ruan glanced intently. In the photo, Yun Qing was half-lying on a sun lounger in a vest and beach pants, surrounded by a group of beautiful blonde women with big breasts and bright smiles. Yun Qing was a cultivator and his body aged slowly. He was obviously old enough to be Bai Ruan’s father, but he looked as if he were only in his late twenties. He was handsome and had a cool outlook. His appearance was indeed of a Taoist expert.

Bai Ruan: …Master, this is?

Yun Qing was serious: As a teacher wandering, I happened to travel to Hawaii recently.

Not as easy to deceive as when he was young, Bai Ruan fell silent. “…”

After a while, Bai Ruan asked cautiously: Master, who are these people next to you?”

Yun Qing politely explained: Showing them palmistry. As a teacher, I’m teaching them how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages in the future. This is an act of widening good relationships and an important part of the practice for teachers.

Bai Ruan looked at the sexy foreign lady in the photo, and wondered if his master only had good relationships with women who had big breasts.

Bai Ruan put on his pajamas: Master, do you have any solution to the matter I’d just asked about?

Yun Qing replied: Simple, a seal will do.

Bai Ruan shook his head again and again: No, he just couldn’t restrain his demon aura and he didn’t do anything else.

Yun Qing was unpredictable: It’s not to seal him, but instead, to seal you.

Bai Ruan: …Then I might as well resign.

Yun Qing explained: Finish listening to your teacher. In conclusion, this matter is because he does not restrain his aura and you’re afraid of that. Since you can’t change the issue of him releasing his energy, you simply have to just seal your spirit sensor. He can release his spirit however he likes and you wouldn’t feel it. Wouldn’t the matter be settled?

Bai Ruan was taken aback: Then I… how do I seal it?

Yun Qing: Don’t you know how to draw the seal of the Qi Orifice?

Sealing the “aperture” referred to the Qi Orifices of the demon’s body. The Qi Orifice of the demons connected the dantian with the heavens and the earth. It was responsible for inhaling the energy that floated between the heavens and the earth, and the dantian was responsible for condensing and converting the aura into energy which was used by demons.

To put it simply, the Qi Orifice, aura, and dantian of a monster could be compared to the nose, oxygen and lungs of ordinary humans. The original function of the Aperture Sealing Talisman was to suppress the demon, and cut off the supply of energy to reduce its combat effectiveness.

Bai Ruan was embarrassed: After sealing the Qi Orifice and being in school all day, my spiritual energy would be depleted… I don’t know if I’d even be able to maintain my human form.

Yun Qing: Stupid, who told you to completely seal it? Can’t you just seal half of it and leave the other portion? If you seal part of your body, it would be equivalent to wearing a mask. You wouldn’t die, nor see others’ auras often. But if you want to not smell it at all, I’m afraid there is no way. If you were to seal half and were still afraid, you can overcome it slowly by yourself.

Bai Ruan was shocked: This thing… Can it only be partially sealed? The book didn’t say how to draw it…

Yun Qing: Will it be in the book? If that seal was not drawn well, wouldn’t its effectiveness be only half of it? All of my stupid juniors who couldn’t draw the talisman well know that. You can draw one extra stroke on the left side, and one less on the right side. Isn’t it just right?

Bai Ruan, a top student who has always finished painting symbols in one go,”…”

Was it a great loss to have studied so much!?

Bai Ruan rushed into his small study room, laid out a yellow paper and cinnabar pen, deliberately drew a seal amulet, with twisted and two short strokes and pasted it on his body.

At first there was a strange suffocation. It was as if the whole body was suddenly wrapped in a few layers of thick cloth, but after a few minutes of getting used to it, it didn’t feel uncomfortable any more. The aura that was sucked into the body was reduced by about 50%. Production of the demon aura had also fallen, but it was enough to maintain a human form.

The inhalation of the spirit energy was less so inhaling the demon essence that Lang Jing Feng emitted would also be lower. Although he was still afraid, at least his legs would not weaken every time he was closeby. Bai Ruan was excited, and pulled the amulet seal on his back and unleashed his full demon energy. Now that it was activated, he stood at the table and drew many talismans frantically. After a while, there was a thick stack of deliberately crudely crafted half-spirit and imperfect seals, which was enough for Bai Ruan to use for a month.

After drawing these symbols, Bai Ruan sank into a chair and let out a sigh of satisfaction.

The author has something to say:

Yun Qing: Bouncy.

Bai Ruan Ruan: ! ! ! Master, don’t call me that in front of him!

Lang Jingfeng: I heard it, Bouncy Bai.

Bai Ruan Ruan: …Call me teacher.

Lang Jingfeng: Teacher Bouncy.

Bai Ruan Ruan:…

Jeanie wanna say:

Hi guys! Thank you for the concern! I’m feeling way better now. I believe it’s some virus stomach virus.

On a side note, it’s Friday now! Cheers to the weekend! 🙂
