Chapter: 3391
Subsequently, he stood up and glanced at the time - it was already around 9 pm at night.
Thinking about going to Yanjing tomorrow, Ye Chen hurriedly tidied up the scene and walked out of the villa quickly.
As soon as he exited the villa gate, Ye Chen discovered that the scenery in the courtyard under the lamp light seemed to have undergone a significant change compared to when he first entered!
When he drove into the courtyard earlier, the grass was still sprouting with green shoots less than 10 centimeters tall, and the density of the lawn was not very high. The few ornamental trees were also just starting to grow out new leaves.
However, after only a few hours' effort, the courtyard's grass had already grown several times taller, reaching Ye Chen's mid-calf level - estimated to be at least 30 centimeters tall.
The few ornamental trees in the courtyard had changed from newly sprouted green shoots to lush and verdant branches!
In just a short few hours, the scenery in the courtyard had jumped directly from early spring to summer, leaving Ye Chen with a feeling of being like someone who had returned after a long time - as if he had entered only a few hours ago, but it was as if he had been gone for several months.
Surprised and intrigued, Ye Chen couldn't help but walk out of the villa and look at the mountain road on both sides. At this moment, the grassy lawn and trees under the lamp light were still in their early spring appearance, completely different from the scenery inside the courtyard.
Ye Chen couldn't help but furrow his brow and think to himself: "Why are the plants in my courtyard growing so much more lushly than everywhere else?"
Full of doubt, he suddenly thought back to when he was refining the Mysterious Dan and a large amount of spiritual energy filled the entire villa. Then it was absorbed by the vortex and went back out again. He couldn't help but muse: "Could it be that the spiritual energy from earlier leaked into the courtyard, causing the plants here to grow suddenly more lush?"
It seemed like this was the only possible explanation.
After all, spiritual energy is the best kind of energy in the world, and it has a very strong promoting effect on plants. Earlier, the villa was filled with spiritual energy, and some of it naturally overflowed out.
Originally, Ye Chen was still thinking about whether he should do something about the excessively lush greenery inside the courtyard, since it was so different from the outside environment. However, after careful consideration, he realized that there was no one coming to visit, the mountain air was cooler, and the plants grew slower as a result. But after Qingming, the temperature would rise, and the plants would enter a stage of rapid growth, making any differences less noticeable by then.
...
On his way back to the city, Ye Chen called Chen Zekai on the phone.
After one ring, Chen Zekai asked respectfully: "Young master, why are you calling me so late? Is there something you need me to arrange?"
Ye Chen said: "Old Chen, help me book a flight. I'm leaving for Yanjing tomorrow morning."
"Oh, alright!" Chen Zekai busied himself: "Young master, so I'll accompany you tomorrow to attend this ancestral ceremony. It's such a grand event, and as staff members, we should be present too."
Ye Chen said: "No problem, then arrange for things here tonight, and we'll go together tomorrow."
"Oh, alright!" Chen Zekai agreed and asked him: "Young master, do you have any other matters that need me to help with arrangements?"
"There is." Ye Chen opened his mouth: "Arrange another flight for me. Tomorrow night, it will take off from Jinling at midnight, and when we arrive, let Hong Five bring those two people along, remember to cover their faces and keep the secret absolutely, absolutely do not let anyone know that these two people have arrived in Yanjing."
Su Shoudao knew Ye Chen was definitely taking him to Yanjing because he wanted Su Shoudao to kneel in front of his parents' tomb on Qingming.
As for Chen Zhonglie from Wanshilou, Ye Chen also had to bring him along.
Because he had already guessed the plan of Wan Pujun, this time going to Yanjing was absolutely unavoidable and would have to meet with Wan Pujun, possibly even engage in combat. So he brought Chen Zhonglie along, who would surely be useful at critical moments.
Chen Zekai naturally knew that the two people Ye Chen mentioned were who they were, and he felt a bit nervous: "Young master, these two people's identities are extremely sensitive. As for Jinling here, it's not too bad, but what about after they arrive in Yanjing?" JrNovels.com
