Evil Spirit Consultant

Chapter 172 Talent
The rusty iron door groaned in Willow's palm.

With a "rustling" sound, the iron door was opened, and the stale air inside mixed with a sweet and fishy smell hit me in the face.

Yang Liu turned on the light of her mobile phone, and when the beam swept across the glass jar in the corner, countless fluorescent fungi suddenly lit up.

"Oh, it looks good. It looks just like the starry sky. No wonder you guys are planning to use it for special effects."

Looking at the blue-green lights interweaving in the dark old warehouse, Yang Liu nodded in understanding, agreeing with the aesthetic views of Sanada Ryoki and others.

Compared to Yang Liu's calmness, Sasaki Reiko had already rushed forward without caring about her image:
"So many! Wow!"

She ran to the jars on the shelf and began to feel through them one by one, with an excitement on her face that was hard to conceal.

"Sasaki-sensei... ahem!!"

Seeing that this guy's authority among the students was almost gone, Yang Liu had to remind him out loud. Seeing Sasaki Reiko turned her head, she silently signaled with her eyes to Sanada Ryoki and Miyamoto Yugye next to her.

"what!"

Sasaki Reiko also responded. She came over, coughed twice, and stood up straight, with the dignity of a teacher on her face:
"You... actually raised such dangerous plants on campus... Confiscate them all!"

"Your map of Yan State is too short!"

Faced with this guy's almost unconcealed shameless behavior, Yang Liu couldn't help but complain.

"Map? What does that mean?" Reiko Sasaki tilted her head.

"It's meaningless." Yang Liu said perfunctorily.

Seeing that Sasaki Reiko was still obsessed with money, he could only pat her on the shoulder and curled his lips at Sanada Ryoki:

"Okay, since we haven't caused any bigger problems, we're just lucky. Don't worry if I want to confiscate it. Didn't you say that this thing is difficult to breed artificially?"

"Yup!"

Reiko Sasaki finally came to her senses and looked at Ryoki Sanada with a sharp gaze.

The reason why ghost mushrooms are not popular is that the conditions for their birth and breeding are too harsh.

Not to mention the conditions for its birth, the cultivation requirements for ghost mushrooms have not yet been studied.

In many cases, once ghost mushrooms are discovered, they will inexplicably decay even if they are not picked and their native environment is not changed.

But this kid, Sanada Ryoki, can actually grow mushrooms and produce so many mycelium? !
Although modern scientific research has shown that substitutes can be found for most of the medicinal effects of ghost mushrooms, the cleansing effect of the poisonous mist on vitality and mental strength after its transformation is still irreplaceable.

Even if Sanada Ryoki has no other abilities, this one move alone is enough to revive the Sanada family.

"and many more……"

Reiko Sasaki suddenly remembered that the people who kidnapped Sanada Ryoki were from a branch of the Tsuchimikado family.

The so-called Tsuchimikado is actually the family founded by Abe Haruaki, which later changed its surname due to war.

Although the family was ridiculed by Reiko Sasaki as being old-fashioned and outdated due to the development of modern technology, it is undeniable that this family is powerful.

Even if it is just a branch, the people of this family should have their own pride.

Even if Sanada Ryoki himself had the qualifications to be the core of an artificial god, he would not have allowed the people of that family to shamelessly pursue the Sanada family after they fled Kyoto.

But if we add in Ryoki Sanada's ability to grow ghost mushrooms... No!
Sasaki Reiko suddenly thought of what he said before. This should be the first time for the other party to see ghost mushrooms, so...

Thinking of a certain possibility, her breathing became heavy, and she suddenly turned her head to look at Ryoki Sanada: "You said before that you particularly like to raise strange things?" "Is...Is it?" Ryoki Sanada took a step back in fear at Reiko Sasaki's gaze.

"How is the feeding?"

"?"

Ryoki Sanada didn't quite understand Reiko Sasaki's problem.

"Teacher Sasaki, please calm down. Your current personality has completely collapsed!"

Yang Liu reluctantly reached out and pulled her back, then turned to look at Sanada Ryoki with a gentle look in her eyes:
"Teacher Sasaki wants to ask how the things you raise are growing? Are they healthy?"

"Ah, it should be well raised, at least it hasn't died yet..." Sanada Ryoki scratched his head.

"Sanada-kun."

Reiko Sasaki suddenly rushed out from beside Yang Liu and pressed Sanada Ryoki's shoulder with a serious expression.

"Yes?" Sanada Ryoki straightened his back subconsciously.

"I'm going to visit your home tonight. Please inform your parents to get ready."

"Eh?!! That's not necessary, teacher!! I won't dare to do it again next time, please forgive me this time!"

Ryoki Sanada let out a terrible howl, and Yang Liu couldn't help but shake her head when she saw his appearance.

It seems that no matter what kind of students they are, they don't like teachers visiting their homes.

Without paying any more attention to the miserable wailing of Sanada Ryoki and the relieved look on Miyamoto Yugye, Yang Liu handed over the matters here to Sasaki Reiko and left the old warehouse.

He could roughly guess what Reiko Sasaki wanted to do. If Sanada Ryoki really had the talent to cultivate extraordinary creatures, then what Reiko Sasaki wanted to do was nothing more than to have him become her apprentice or seek cooperation.

……

……

The midday sunlight on Nokonoshima shines through the gauze curtains of the health room, casting a pale golden halo on Koizumi Suzu's ponytail.

She was standing on tiptoe trying to take down the first aid kit on top of the cabinet, her body stretched into a graceful arc under her sportswear - if you ignore the half octopus tentacle stuck on it.

"So that's why you guys skipped swimming lessons?"

Yang Liu used tweezers to pick up the tentacle that was still twisting after it was broken off. The mucus on it glowed like mother-of-pearl in the sunlight.

"I really don't know what you were thinking. You actually kept this thing in the locker room. If you want to make takoyaki at the school festival, you can just use the finished octopus tentacles. Do you really need to raise them yourself?"

"Sanada-san said it was totally fine, but who knew it would explode."

Nagai Miko, who was covered in slime, was complaining wildly and couldn't help but look at the seemingly harmless little octopus in the tank next to her.

Just now, when they tried to collect the octopus's tentacles, they were sprayed with mucus all over their bodies by the little octopus. Although it looked small in size, it sprayed a frightening amount of mucus.

Thinking of this, she looked at the timid Sanada Ryoki beside her and said, "You clearly said that if we knock on the fish tank, the octopus will shed its tentacles by itself. That's not true at all!"

"I'm sorry... but this was its reaction when I raised it..." Sanada Ryoki lowered his head in shame, but couldn't help but defend himself.
