Chapter 265.2
Thus, more jars of wine were brought up, and the Master Painter continued to drink heartily, unable to stop.
Lin Beifan said with a smile, Master, do you know why the wine smells so good?
Why? asked the Master Painter, continuing to drink.
Because this wine, you see, is infused with the petals from your garden! In other words, this wine is brewed with the flowers from your garden, so naturally, it has a fragrant taste and smell!
The Master Painter paused in his drinking, and he said blankly, what did you just say? Did you just say that this wine is made with flowers from my Hundred Flower Garden?
Lin Beifan nodded: Indeed! ๐ป๐จ๐๐๐ฅ๐๐๐๐.๐๐จ๐ฆ
A surge of anger flared up in the Master Painters heart: How could you use my flowers to brew wine?
Lin Beifan felt wronged: If not to brew wine, what else should I use them for? To soak my feet?
Master Painter was taken aback!
Thinking back carefully, he found that there seemed to be
A sliver of reason in what he said!
No, thats not right, he almost got tricked into it!
These flowers were meant to be admired, not to be used for brewing!
Master, do you have any objections to me using these flowers to brew wine? Lin Beifan asked with a smile.
For some reason, the Master Painter saw a hint of danger in Lin Beifans eyes.
He glanced at the two Grandmasters beside him and immediately shook his head: No objections at all, I can only say, well brewed! Truly making the most of the flowers potential!
Since its well brewed, Master, have another bowl! Lin Beifan cheerfully poured him more wine.
Thank you, Your Majesty! The Master Painter drank with tears streaming down his face.
After finishing the jar of wine, Master Painter left heartbroken.
The first thing he did when he got back was to have his people move all the precious flowers from the Hundred Flower Garden overnight, hiding them well to prevent Lin Beifan from causing further harm.
After the Master Painter left, the Peerless Spear Immortal asked in confusion, Master, why do I feel like you were deliberately provoking him?
The Sword Elder was also puzzled and looked over.
Lin Beifan nodded with a smile: Youre not wrong in feeling that way!
Master, why? both Grandmasters asked in unison.
Actually, being able to reach enlightenment through painting proves that the Master Painter is very talented! Unfortunately, talented people are often proud and stubborn, which makes them have narrow visions and limits their future!
Only by breaking his stubborn views can he see the path ahead clearly! So, I decided to give it a try! If it works, he can advance further! If not, this is as far as he goes in this lifetime!
The next day, Lin Beifan continued to roam and enjoy the island with his people.
And then accidentally found the place where the Master Painter hid the flowers and accidentally picked a few before leaving.
When the Master Painter heard the news, he was shocked: What? My flowers were found by them and taken away? Why didnt you stop them?
Master, we couldnt stop them! the butler said with a wry smile.
Useless! You are all useless! You cant even handle such a small matter!
The Master Painter raged: What are you waiting for? Go and hide my flowers properly right now!
Yes, Master, Ill see to it right away!
They moved the flowers to another hiding place.
But on the third day, Lin Beifan found them again, and so he picked a few more flowers and left.
The Master Painter was once again furious: How did they find them again? Cant you hide them more discreetly? If they find them next time, youll have to answer for it!
Then, overnight, he moved the flowers to yet another place.
And on the fourth day, Lin Beifan found them again.
On the fifth, sixth, and seventh days, they moved the flowers to a different location each day, becoming more and more concealed.
Yet, Lin Beifan found them every single time.
Master Painter was completely numb!
Such a knack for finding things, are you a treasure-seeking mouse?
Master Painter looked at the flowers and plants he had painstakingly raised, those delicate, incomparably beautiful blossoms, now withered and no longer lovely, and his heart bled with pain.
My flowers, I have failed you!
He glared in the direction of Lin Beifans fleet and said bitterly, Lin Beifan, remember this! I will never forget this grudge. I wont rest easy until its settled!
Just then, the butler hurried over: Master, the Great Xia Emperor has invited you for a drink!
Master Painter grew even angrier: Damn it! Hes using my flowers to brew wine again and has the nerve to invite me to drink it. Ive never seen anyone so brazen! I cannot share the same sky with him!
Master, will you go? They are waiting for my response.
Master Painter fumed: Do you even need to ask me? Go tell him right now Ill go(w q)!
The butler was a bit dumbfounded: Master, I didnt quite catch that. Is it Ill go, or should I tell them f*ck?
(TLN: Wordplay, (w q) could mean Ill go/Im going or Damn/f*ck.) ๐๐๐ท๐๐ญ๐๐๐ด๐ก.๐ค๐๐ฎ
Master Painter was furious: Do you really need to ask such a simple question? Get out!
Yes, Master! The butler scurried away in a panic.
Master Painter tidied up his clothes a bit and then went to the Dragon Boat banquet with an expressionless face.
Although it was despicable for them to use my flowers for wine, the wine itself was still fragrant and was not to be refused!
Meanwhile, more and more people were passing the test and arriving at the island.
