The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Capítulo 1244: Chapter 1237: Du Yushan’s Uncontrollable Rage

Doing a good deed but still being blamed, Lin Tian, although a bit speechless, didn’t mind.

Seeing the old man’s attitude, it was clear he didn’t understand the true characteristics of the Late Night Fragrant Herb. Explaining it would be pointless as he definitely wouldn’t believe him.

After leaving that courtyard, Lin Tian finally reached the deepest part of the botanical garden.

However, there were no other gains.

This time, obtaining the Golden Spirit Grass was already a massive gain.

Growing the Taixuan Grass is currently one of the most urgent tasks for him.

As for developing new medicines, Lin Tian didn’t find any good herbal medicine here. Even if they could be used for support, the elixir made wouldn’t be effective.

Having walked around the innermost part of the botanical garden, Lin Tian returned.

However.

Having walked a short distance, he ran into someone head-on.

It was Lee Xuan, approaching from the opposite direction.

And Lee Xuan had already noticed Lin Tian, making it impossible to avoid her.

“Student, what’s your name? Why are you here alone?”

Lee Xuan frowned slightly, gave Lin Tian a once-over, and questioned.

“Teacher, my name is Lin Tian! I had an urgent need just now, and I didn’t want to disturb you while you were lecturing the students, so I left on my own.”

Lin Tian shrugged helplessly. The other party was a teacher, after all, so he couldn’t just brush her off. He had to steer the conversation, saying, “But I got lost just now, and it took a long time to find my way back! Where are the other students?”

Sure enough.

Hearing this, Lee Xuan’s expression softened a bit. She nodded and said, “The other students are ahead, looking at the plants in the garden. Lin Tian, you should hurry over there too. This is a university, nobody is here to push you; how hard you work is up to you!”

Sidestepping the issue, Lin Tian hurriedly walked away.

Lee Xuan, on the other hand, walked towards the courtyard where the old man was.

Just as she entered the courtyard, she ran into the old man storming out with an angry face.

“Professor Du, what’s happened to you?”

Seeing the old man uncharacteristically out of sorts, Lee Xuan looked shocked and hurriedly asked.

The old man, named Du Yushan, was a retired professor from the college. He lived here in seclusion, while cultivating some mutated herbs, greatly contributing to the college. He later also went to the Huake Institute to discuss and research botany with experts there.

“Ms. Lee Xuan, it’s you! You’re here just in time; you brought the pharmacy college students here today, right?”

Du Yushan’s anger did not diminish as he angrily said to Lee Xuan, “Just now, a student came over here and damaged a pot of my herbs! No, no, no… not damaged, but rather, he tampered with it, replanting my precious herb! That Late Night Fragrant Herb needs to grow in yin land, avoiding sunlight, and needs black soil for cultivation… He… He switched it to yellow soil and put it on a peninsula exposed to the sun! This herb, which was already dying, has been further pushed to the brink!”

“What!”

Lee Xuan’s face changed dramatically. She quickly walked into the courtyard to check the Late Night Fragrant Herb, and her expression immediately turned ugly.

“Professor Du, isn’t this Late Night Fragrant Herb the rare herbal medicine you were instructed to attempt to cultivate when you visited the Huake Institute, at the behest of several academicians?”

After checking the Late Night Fragrant Herb, Lee Xuan turned back and asked with a serious expression.

“Exactly! When I went to the Huake Institute, Academician Wang showed me this herb. He said it was accidentally found in a deep mountain and identified from ancient books as the Late Night Fragrant Herb. But we only know its name; its specific effects and characteristics remain speculative! This Late Night Fragrant Herb is yin-natured and should prefer growing in moist places. After all, when it was discovered, Academician Wang said it was in a small marshland!”

Du Yushan walked back, his face filled with anger, and shouted, “Just now, that reckless kid came into my courtyard without permission and tampered with the Late Night Fragrant Herb!”

Hearing this, Lee Xuan immediately thought of Lin Tian from earlier, and her expression grew more grim.

“Professor Du, I know who it was. Indeed, it was one of my students, and it’s my fault for not watching over them properly!”

Lee Xuan showed a look of apology to Du Yushan and said, “Please wait here, and I’ll bring that student back to apologize to you in person!”

Finished speaking, Lee Xuan hurriedly left, returning to the botanical garden area where the freshman pharmacy college students were located.

Lin Tian had already returned and was not far off, looking curiously at some Chinese Herbal Medicine he hadn’t seen before.

They were all low-grade herbal medicines, but because he hadn’t seen them before, he was quite curious.

“Lin Tian, come with me for a moment!”

Lee Xuan found Lin Tian and directly shouted in a stern voice.

This attracted the gaze of other students, who looked at Lee Xuan and assumed Lin Tian must have offended her somehow.

“Did he cause trouble again?”

In the crowd, Gao Yanan’s gaze landed on Lin Tian. She frowned slightly and shook her head, saying, “I heard he even beat up Qin Shi and others this morning. This guy really knows how to cause trouble, but his skill is quite strong!”

“It’s him again!”

Weng Xiaoran also followed the voice and looked over, but she quickly froze, exclaiming in surprise, “Wait a minute! Is his name Lin Tian?”

“Didn’t Mr. Lee call his name? I didn’t know before; turns out his name is Lin Tian!”

Gao Yanan pointed at the departing Lee Xuan and said, while Lin Tian had already followed Lee Xuan.

Lin Tian!

Wasn’t Little Demon’s fiancé also named Lin Tian?

Could it be him?

Weng Xiaoran widened her beautiful eyes, looking at Lin Tian’s back as he walked away, feeling curious and suspicious. She decided to call Jii Xiaoyao later to ask about this.

She hadn’t seen Lin Tian before, only knowing his name without knowing what he looked like.

Being suddenly called over by Lee Xuan, Lin Tian was also somewhat puzzled.

“Could it be because I left without permission? Or maybe I was discovered when I collected the Golden Spirit Grass?”

Lin Tian followed behind, thinking helplessly.

But when they arrived at the old man’s courtyard, he realized his guess was wrong.

“It’s this troublesome kid! He even ran off! Nowadays students are becoming more and more lawless!”

Seeing Lin Tian and Lee Xuan show up, Du Yushan’s face was full of agitation as he immediately began cursing angrily.

“Professor Du, please calm down first! We can attempt to replant this Late Night Fragrant Herb; maybe it can still be saved!”

Lee Xuan tried to comfort Du Yushan, then sternly scolded Lin Tian, “Lin Tian, this is Professor Du from our college. Although he’s retired, he is still an honorary professor at our college and a part-time plant expert at the Huake Institute! This Late Night Fragrant Herb is the greatest effort of his cultivation, and it was specially entrusted by the academicians at the Huake Institute. Yet, you dared to tamper with it without permission; do you realize how serious the consequences could be!”

Lin Tian couldn’t help but roll his eyes, spread his hands, and said, “Mr. Lee, this Late Night Fragrant Herb, although black in appearance and yin-natured, generally prefers growing in sunny and water-rich but relatively dry places. As for the soil, yellow soil is the best! If at the beginning Professor Du had used yellow soil and placed it in a sunny spot, it would have grown already, not to the brink of withering!”

“You…”

Lee Xuan was taken aback, nearly spitting blood, and shouted, “Who told you the Late Night Fragrant Herb needs a sunny place and yellow soil? Don’t talk nonsense!”

“Teacher, I’m not talking nonsense; what I’m saying is true!”

Lin Tian frowned and said seriously, “If you don’t believe me, in at most a week, the Late Night Fragrant Herb will be thriving again!”

“You little rascal, you’re simply talking nonsense!”

Lin Tian’s poker-faced nonsense made Du Yushan’s face turn red with anger, almost making him spit blood. He was furious as he loudly reprimanded, “When this Late Night Fragrant Herb was discovered, it was growing in a marshland area, surrounded by shade and moisture. You claim it needs sunshine—what nonsense! And you want me to wait a week? By then, what will be left is just a bunch of withered herbs!”
