Master of Ten Thousand Foxes

Chapter 479 - 269: Expert Bai Mo, You’re Confused! (2)

Finally, there were several grinning emoji.

Bai Mo twitched his mouth.

He was the host, but let others pay the bill?

This feeling was too strange and didn’t align with his principles.

[No need, how much is it? I’ll transfer it to you.]

Yet, he saw Master Chong immediately replied.

[Why is it unnecessary?]

[You can’t be too stingy when hosting.]

[Besides, do you know how much agency fees we earned from the Brain Protection Nasal Inhaler project? It’s a big amount, you couldn’t spend it all in several lifetimes, just so many zeros and commas in the bank account!]

[What’s the point of keeping so much money, it should be spent!]

Bai Mo stared at his phone, expression rigid.

What’s this supposed to be?

Is he... collaborating with a businessman?

Master Chong continued to send messages.

[Expert Bai Mo, there’s an issue with your understanding of money.]

[What is money?]

[Why do we earn money?]

[For enjoyment? For luxury?]

[For the big villa and the small Benz? The big gold chain and the little watch?]

[Those aren’t big expenses!]

[And it’s not meaningful either!]

[I’ve tried them all, and I’m tired of them.]

[In my view, money is a token for resource allocation!]

[All the money in the company’s account is our resource reserve, all for the great cause concerning human destiny!]

[The money isn’t yours or mine; it just happens to be under my name.]

[Its value is to flexibly allocate human societal resources, to lay a brick for the great world of saving human destiny.]

[Like today, this bit of money lets future scientists eat happily and remember your favor, isn’t that worth it?]

[Feeding these butter crabs to future scientists to help them nourish their brains is more valuable than going into the belly of some fat merchant, isn’t it?]

[You can’t be confused!]

[Money in our accounts, spend it when you should.]

[All for humanity’s destiny!]

Bai Mo was stunned for a long time.

What Master Chong said sounded strange, but seemed to have a bit of truth?

"Could it be... that I’m the one who’s confused?"

The apprentice scooped some crab roe near his mouth, and he instinctively opened his mouth to eat it.

...

After the meal, the table was a mess, and classmates left one after another.

"Today’s meal was amazing."

"How are we getting back? Carpool?"

"Let’s take the bus, just one transfer needed."

Bai Mo carried his apprentice Haha Fox, seeing the apprentice squinting with a face full of happiness and satisfaction.

He looked at the cars zooming by outside the restaurant.

"I... can’t be confused anymore.

"Spend the money when you should.

"Use resources when they should be used."

He decisively sent a message to Master Chong.

[Master Chong, are you there? Borrow the company’s fleet for a bit.]

Master Chong replied instantly.

[It’s already waiting at the Crab Emperor’s Residence entrance.]

Huang Sitong followed the main group out of the room, chatting with Guan Yue Ling beside her. She rubbed her full stomach, suddenly sighing... When would she get to eat a meal like this again?

Her Sequence Seven, is it really so poor?

"If I join the Immortal Committee and become an expert, won’t I have no money issues afterward?"

In her mind, the Flowerpot Ancient Immortal was sitting by the stone table, holding the apprentice’s hand with a serious face.

"Never think like this!

"The mission of a Holy Land Inheritor is to live and develop quietly, waiting for a Celestial Palace Inheritor to contact you and offer support.

"The Committee might not be clean; if exposed after joining, the consequences would be unimaginable!

"We don’t lack material things, don’t crave those palate desires.

"If you really want it... um... it’s better to use Immortal Techniques to sneak some money instead of joining the Committee!"

Huang Sitong gave an awkward smile.

"I... I was just saying.

"Even too much crab gets boring, I don’t have such strong material desires."

...

Dark clouds gathering, the wind howling.

The Bronze Hall lifted its curtain, letting the dim light from outside and the howling wind come in.

Bai Mo sat behind the desk, wearing a windbreaker, and picked up his teacup to take a sip.

Bronze Plates spread across the table, as he read and took notes.

Plant neurology knowledge has almost reached perfection!

Until now, the condenser eludes him, lacking just one thing...

"Does the Super Immortal Grass of the Neuro Domain truly exist?"

He put down his pen, took away the Copper Plate, stacking them up.

Super Immortal Grass is an evolved version of ordinary Immortal Grass.

Primordial Immortal Qi is the essence of the Knowledge Container.

Without the Super Immortal Grass from the Neuro Domain, all the knowledge Bai Mo accumulated cannot conclusively reach a conclusion, always just one step short of perfection.

In the hall, Butterfly Knot and Small and Big Eyes retrieve stacks of documents from the cleaning machine.

"Ying ying ying?"

Butterfly Knot carefully identifies the color bands on the Copper Plate, stacking them together with similar plates.

"Ao ao ao?"

Small and Big Eyes studies the pattern on the slab sections, using these patterns to group the slabs into several stacks.

More and more documents dug out from Fox Mountain, the speed of excavating documents quickening, they bear the knowledge shared by their brothers, fully taking responsibility as Little Secretary, helping their master sort the documents initially!

"Ao?"

Almost sorted, the two foxes wagged their tails, carrying stack after stack of documents to their master.

After delivering the documents, Bai Mo grinned, pulling his two disciples close, petting their heads.

Then began to review the documents.

"This classification is good, very accurate, saved master a lot of time."

The recent documents, still coming from the "Institute of Plant Neurology."

Bai Mo reviewed stack by stack, finding most of them meaningless, glancing through them, then putting them aside as discarded documents.

After snuggling in their master’s lap for a while, the two disciples jumped happily away, transporting these discarded documents, stacking them beside the wall of the hall, waiting until there’s enough to be moved with a forklift.

Bai Mo then began to read a new stack of Copper Plates.

"Huh? This... has got some results."

[...Sequence Six is already the pinnacle of Immortal Grass, Sequence Five and Sequence Four do not have corresponding Immortal Grass...]

[...Higher Sequence Immortal Grass is unparalleled in the world, within the realm of myths...]

Oh?

Bai Mo saw this viewpoint for the first time.

Meaning, Sequence Six’s Super Immortal Grass still belongs to the mass-production version.

Sequence Five, Sequence Four have no corresponding Immortal Grass.

Sequence Three and above Immortal Grass, all are uniquely designed with famous names and legends?

[Super Immortal Grass often contains Primordial Immortal Qi, possessing miraculous characteristics]

[For example, Purple Earth Dragon, massive in size, enormous strength, possessing Stem-type Immortal Qi]

[For example, Timid Daisy, can grow with courage, infinite courage leads to infinite growth, possessing Floral Immortal Qi]

[All known Super Immortal Grass of the Immortal Dynasty possesses one of the root, stem, leaf, flower, fruit, or seed as Primordial Immortal Qi]

[While exploring plant neurology, we often ponder whether an undiscovered Super Immortal Grass exists? Whether an undiscovered Primordial Immortal Qi exists?]

The document stops here, subsequent writing blurred, unreadable.

Bai Mo put down this piece, continuing to flip through.

Before long, he encountered a fresh term.

[We focused our attention on Calamity Grass]

Calamity Grass?

What is this?

[Calamity Grass often possesses inexplicable miraculous characteristics, much like Super Immortal Grass]

[Yet we have not discovered Primordial Immortal Qi within Calamity Grass]

[Or perhaps, the Primordial Immortal Qi they possess is beyond our understanding...]

Writing blurred again.

Bai Mo held the slab, searching with his eyes, finding a line of clear writing.

[...Black Ghost Eye has already ruined three thousand acres of medicinal fields, and continues to destroy more, we cannot locate it, cannot completely eradicate it, decided to thoroughly incinerate five thousand acres of medicinal fields, turning this land into scorched earth, hoping to burn the Black Ghost Eye...]

Black Ghost Eye?

Bai Mo saw this term for the second time.

Previous documents mentioned Black Ghost Eye is forbidden!

[...Eight thousand miles away, we discovered traces of Black Ghost Eye...]

[...It has fled...]

Bai Mo pursed his lips, picked up the hot tea, taking a sip.

Black Ghost Eye is a type of so-called "Calamity Grass"?

This description is rather eerie.

It’s a pity Fox Mountain didn’t find such a thing.

Otherwise, Bai Mo would truly like to take a look!

Perhaps that so-called Calamity Grass is indeed the Neuro Domain’s Super Immortal Grass, who knows?
