Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 21 - 00: Carrots Can Only Feed Rabbits

Exposed in public, Wu Di’s face turned shades of green and purple. Giving a birthday gift, only for it to be a counterfeit, was an insult to the Wu Family’s dignity.

However, Wu Di was indeed experienced. He clasped his hands together and said, "Elder An, I was short-sighted and deceived by others. Tomorrow, I will personally deliver a genuine piece."

Old Master An smiled generously and said, "You’re young, it’s normal to be deceived by others. Consider it a learning experience."

"Grandpa An, I see that Rongrong has raised quite a few rabbits. Let those rabbits eat this carrot," Chu Feng said.

If he was going to slap someone’s face, he might as well do it thoroughly. Since he had already offended them, he did not mind offending them to the death. Besides, with Chu Feng’s current abilities, what was there to be afraid of?

When Wu Di heard Chu Feng’s words, his fists clenched tightly, and a flash of anger sparked in his eyes.

The ginseng he gifted was indeed fake, but it wasn’t a carrot; it was still ginseng. However, Chu Feng was saying it should be fed to rabbits.

Old Man Zhuang also said, "I think that’s right. Carrots are meant to feed rabbits. If you eat them and they’re not digested well, let the younger generation handle these items."

Old Man Zhuang was clearly determined to support Chu Feng to the end tonight.

Upon hearing Old Man Zhuang’s words, Old Master An readily agreed, "Then we’ll let the young people handle it themselves."

Receiving a fake ginseng at his own birthday banquet was definitely not satisfactory, and Old Man Zhuang’s suggestion gave him a way to gracefully step down.

With the situation as it was, what face did Wu Di have left to stay? He left quietly and dejectedly with Liu Tianming.

"Old Man An, the gift I brought you is the real deal. Whether you can get it depends on your ’Eye Power’ and luck," Old Man Zhuang said after finishing, and he did not forget to glance at Chu Feng, warning, "Kid, if you dare to interject later, watch out, I might fall out with you."

Chu Feng quickly assured, "Don’t worry, Elder Zhuang, I absolutely won’t say a word."

Elder Zhuang nodded with satisfaction, then ordered people to bring in over a dozen rough jade stones.

"Old Man An, these rough stones are my treasured collection. There is valuable jade inside, as well as solid stones. Whether you pick a jade or a stone depends on your fate," boasted Elder Zhuang with pride.

As soon as these rough stones were brought in, Chu Feng stared intently at one of them, because the Spiritual Energy emanating from that stone was so rich. If he absorbed it, it would definitely be greatly beneficial to him.

"Grandpa Zhuang, this is bullying. You know my grandpa doesn’t understand these things, and yet you deliberately use these items to trouble him. If my grandpa really picks a stone, wouldn’t he get nothing in the end?" An Rongrong stood up, indignant on behalf of her grandfather.

Elder Zhuang chuckled and replied, "That’s why it all depends on your grandpa’s fate. If he picks a stone, he can only blame his bad luck."

Old Master An laughed and said, "I say, Old Man Zhuang, back when I brought you a mix of genuine and fake antiques, and this year you’re giving me a mix of genuine and fake rough stones. You’ve learned quite fast."

On Elder Zhuang’s birthday years ago, Old Master An used a similar technique, presenting several real and fake paintings.

As it happened, Elder Zhuang chose a fake painting, which annoyed Old Master Zhuang for several years. This year he finally had the chance for revenge.

An Rongrong, seeing Chu Feng focused on the stones, nudged him and whispered, "Grandpa Zhuang won’t let you speak, but if you understand this, help my grandpa choose."

Chu Feng nodded and said, "I do indeed understand a bit, but if Old Master Zhuang won’t let me speak, there’s nothing I can do."

An Rongrong became somewhat anxious and said, "Think of a way. Don’t let my grandpa be embarrassed. If worse comes to worst, I’ll agree to let you have me later."

Upon hearing this, Chu Feng smiled wickedly and asked, "You’ll really let me have you later?"

At that moment, An Rongrong, without thinking about it, nodded and said, "Yes! I mean what I say, I’ll only let you have me later."

Chu Feng was overjoyed and readily nodded, saying, "Okay!"

He agreed and then said to Elder Zhuang, "I didn’t bring anything today, so I might as well offer borrowed flowers to the Buddha. Let me pick one as my birthday gift to Elder An. If I pick correctly, it’s my good luck. If I don’t, then it’s just not my fate. How about that?"

Elder Zhuang scolded with a laugh, "You young hero, you can’t resist a beauty. Don’t think my old eyes are too dim to see you and An Rongrong whispering there, scheming against this old man. You can choose, but I have a condition. You must choose blindfolded, I already know about your abilities with your eyes. Only then will it be considered leaving it to fate."

An Rongrong immediately protested when she heard that he had to choose without using his eyes, "Grandpa Zhuang, you’re cheating."

Elder Zhuang replied, "The stones are my gift to your grandpa. Anyone other than your grandpa who wants to choose, I have the right to set the rules. How am I cheating?"

"..."

An Rongrong stood there helplessly, puffing up her cute pink cheeks in frustration.

"It’s fine!" Chu Feng agreed without hesitation.

Chu Feng did not rely on his eyes, but on sensing the Spiritual Energy to make his judgments.

Soon, a black cloth was brought over, and Chu Feng blindfolded himself. An Rongrong then led him in front of the rough stones.

"Make sure to feel around properly," An Rongrong whispered to Chu Feng.

Chu Feng cracked a slight smile and said, "I’m still waiting for you to feed me the next one."

After speaking, Chu Feng went straight to one piece and said, "This one it is."

An Rongrong saw how quickly Chu Feng made his choice and anxiously said, "Take your time to choose, don’t be so hasty." freeweɓnøvel~com

Elder Zhuang looked at the piece Chu Feng had chosen, a piece of stone with a drab stone skin, and frowned, saying, "Are you sure about this one?"

Chu Feng nodded and said, "I’m sure."

This drab piece of stone, although also mined from an old pit, was determined by everyone to be a waste stone with nothing inside.

"Could it be that this lad is eliminating the wrong answers for Old Man An?" Elder Zhuang muttered to himself.

Chu Feng took off his eye cover and said, "Elder Zhuang, I’m certain about this one. Let’s have someone cut it open and take a look."

"Alright!"

Elder Zhuang gave his assent, and someone began to cut the stone on the spot.

Soon, layers of stone skin were peeled away, revealing a dazzling red glow.

"It’s red jade!"

"Cock’s Comb Red! It’s actually Cock’s Comb Red!"

Some sharp-eyed people recognized the grade of this red jade immediately.

Red jade is generally much cheaper than green jade, but the best quality red jade can be just as pricy. Like this piece of Cock’s Comb Red, if the water type were a bit better and the size a bit larger, the price would be hard to estimate.

"Ice species, red jade, Cock’s Comb Red!"

When the stone was completely cut open, everyone finally got a clear view of the fist-sized piece of red jade.

This was a piece of jade with a very delicate quality and a very full luster, Cock’s Comb Red red jade.

Even before being carved into any item, such a piece would already be worth at least five million.

Chu Feng picked up the piece of red jade and smiled, saying, "Elder Zhuang, it seems I just got lucky this time. Consider this a birthday gift for Elder An, I’ll pay you for the stone later."

Elder Zhuang had a grim expression and said, "Who needs your money for the stone? Are you disrespecting an old man like me?"

Old Master An, having received a red jade of immense value, was in high spirits and said, "Old Man Zhuang, why are you squabbling with a youngster? It’s not very gentlemanly. I can just randomly select a stone to cheer you up."

"Go! Go! Go! Old man, there’s no need to coddle me, I knew it wouldn’t end well with this young fellow," Elder Zhuang said with a face full of gloom.

Originally, he had also planned to irritate Elder An, but he did not expect Chu Feng to mess it up.

Naturally, the focus of the crowd was not on Old Master An and Old Man Zhuang, these old tricksters, but on Chu Feng.

Giving away a priceless red jade as if it was nothing, not even batting an eyelid, such boldness was something they did not possess.

"Elder, since you don’t want the money for the stone, why don’t you give me an extra prize instead? In the future, if you need to select a stone, just let me know!" said Chu Feng.

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhuang’s eyes lit up and he said, "Are you serious?"

Chu Feng nodded and said, "Of course, I am."

"Good! Then go and pick out an extra gift for yourself," Elder Zhuang said magnanimously.

Chu Feng walked over to the piece he had had his eye on for a while, grabbed the stone and said, "Elder, I’ll take this one then."

Elder Zhuang did not know that Chu Feng had picked it out long ago and took it as Chu Feng knowing how to advance and retreat, deliberately choosing a small one. He nodded and said, "Alright! This piece is yours."

After this incident passed, the name Chu Feng was destined to spread throughout the upper circles of East River tonight. Surely, many would investigate Chu Feng’s background.

An Rongrong stood beside Chu Feng, looking pleased and said, "You did pretty well."

Chu Feng spoke softly, saying, "Then you can feed me ’down there’ later."

"Of course..."

An Rongrong was about to agree when she realized Chu Feng’s eyes were fixed on her skirt. Her pretty face blushed, and she immediately grasped the situation, sneakily pinching Chu Feng hard, saying, "You pervert! Big bully! I will never bother with you again!"

As Chu Feng and An Rongrong playfully bantered, the atmosphere around Wu Di and Liu Tianming was tense. Liu Tianming’s face was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, his head was bowed so low he was nearly kneeling.
