This was Little Crane Grass's fourth time on a ship, but this time it was very different from the previous ones. The previous ships he took were all cargo ships, and the cabins he stayed in were all for the sailors, so they were small and cramped.
But this time, the ship he took was a real passenger ship. In fact, it wasn't just a passenger ship, it was the Hu Clan's own ship. The cabins on the ship were very large and spacious. It was very comfortable to live in.
At this time, Little Crane Grass's clothes had changed. He was no longer wearing the coarse clothes he used to wear. His clothes were now made of silk. His dark blue clothes, coupled with Little Crane Grass's refined temperament, made him look very extraordinary.
Moreover, Little Crane Grass was now on the Hu Clan's ship. He was no longer a child that no one paid attention to. The boatmen and servants on the ship called him Young Master.
Little Crane Grass wasn't used to this change in identity. However, he could only slowly adapt. This time, besides Hu Xian 'er and Ling' er, he didn't have any acquaintances. Even with Little Crane Grass's temperament, he couldn't help but feel timid.
Little Crane Grass didn't run around on the ship. He also didn't feel bored. Every day, he would hide in his room and read books. Hu Xian 'er had a lot of books that Little Crane Grass hadn't seen before. Naturally, Little Crane Grass was very happy to read them.
In fact, Little Crane Grass didn't know that these books were specially prepared by Hu Xian 'er. She wanted to see if Little Crane Grass could really have a photographic memory.
After a few days, Hu Xian 'er completely believed that Little Crane Grass could have a photographic memory. Moreover, the books that Little Crane Grass had read, he could write them down from memory without missing a single word. To be honest, Hu Xian' er was very surprised when she found out about Little Crane Grass's ability.
But after being surprised, Hu Xian 'er also paid more attention to Little Crane Grass. In her opinion, Little Crane Grass was a genius. If such a genius entered the Hu Clan, it would be very good for the clan.
Today, Little Crane Grass was reading in her room. They had been on the ship for seven days, but before they boarded the ship, Hu Xian 'er told Little Crane Grass that this time, they would be on the ship for half a month, so Little Crane Grass was mentally prepared. Every day, she would read a book or walk around the deck, which was also quite comfortable.
Little Crane Grass didn't know that his performance these days had been seen by Hu Xian 'er. She was becoming more and more satisfied with Little Crane Grass.
Outsiders didn't understand Plant Masters and thought that it was a noble profession. But those who truly understood Plant Masters and knew how they practiced were very clear that Plant Masters needed you to be able to endure loneliness. This was because most of the time, Plant Masters had to stay with plants or go into the mountains to observe plants and collect herbs. These places were often inaccessible. If you couldn't endure loneliness, then it was impossible to become a qualified Plant Master.
In the Plant Master's world, there had always been a saying that a Plant Master who wasn't close to plants wasn't a good Plant Master. A Plant Master who didn't personally collect herbs wasn't a good Pharmacist. It was precisely because of this that many Plant Masters would personally go into the mountains to collect all kinds of plants and herbs.
Sometimes, a Plant Master would even live in the mountains for a long time in order to observe a plant that he had never seen before and understand the habits of this plant.
Therefore, patience was very important to Plant Masters. If Little Crane Grass was too anxious and restless on the ship, then it meant that his patience wasn't good. In the future, when he studied, he would have to strengthen his training in this aspect.
But after observing Little Crane Grass, Hu Xian 'er determined that Little Crane Grass was a natural Plant Master. He could endure loneliness and wasn't arrogant or impatient. It was very rare.
One must know that Little Crane Grass was only seven years old. It was very rare for a seven year old child to have such a temperament. Therefore, Hu Xian 'er became more and more satisfied with Little Crane Grass.
On this day, Little Crane Grass was reading in his room for a while. He felt a little tired and wanted to go to the ship to exercise. Just as he came out of his room, he saw Ling 'er walking over. He immediately bowed to Ling' er and said, "Big Sister Ling 'er, where are you going?"
Ling 'er also liked Little Crane Grass very much. She was young and Little Crane Grass had always been very polite to her. This made Ling' er like Little Crane Grass even more. Now that she heard Little Crane Grass say this, she immediately smiled and said, "Crane Grass, the Young Miss is calling you. Come with me."
When Little Crane Grass heard Ling 'er, he was puzzled and said, "Big Sister Ling' er, why is Big Sister Xian 'er looking for me?"
Ling 'er looked at Little Crane Grass and smiled faintly, "Come with me." Then without any explanation, she pulled Little Crane Grass and walked towards Hu Xian' er's room.
When the two arrived at Hu Xian 'er's room, they found that Hu Xian' er was reading in her room. Hu Xian 'er had recently developed the habit of reading by herself. This was because she discovered that her accumulation of knowledge was too little. It couldn't compare to Little Crane Grass at all. This caused her self-esteem to be hurt.
Seeing Little Crane Grass come, Hu Xian 'er immediately waved her hand and had Little Crane Grass sit down. Little Crane Grass bowed to Hu Xian' er before sitting down and said, "Big Sister Xian 'er, why are you looking for me?"
Hu Xian 'er looked at Little Crane Grass. She really liked this child. He was smart but not arrogant. He always used a humble attitude to face people and matters. For a Plant Master, this was very important.
Hu Xian 'er smiled and said, "Do I have to look for you for something? Can't I look for you if there's nothing? Hehe, you hide in your room and read books every day. I think you'll become a bookworm sooner or later. "
Little Crane Grass smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's okay. I like to read books. The things written in those books are things that I don't know. Every time I read a book, I feel very fulfilled."
Hu Xian 'er nodded and said, "In a few days, we'll be arriving at Lingshan City. From Lingshan City, it would take about four hours to arrive at our Hu Clan. Because our Hu Clan is a Plant Master, we don't live in the city. Instead, we live in the corner of a mountain outside the city. There is a huge botanical garden that our Hu Clan built there, which is called the Botanical Fort. After many years of hard work, the Botanical Fort has a lot of rare plants. Every year, there would be a large number of Plant Masters coming to the Botanical Fort to study these plants.
Little Crane Grass nodded with an expression of yearning. Hu Xian 'er looked at Little Crane Grass and smiled faintly, "After sending you to the Hu Clan, Big Sister will go to the Saber Sovereign Pavilion to study. It will take a few years for Big Sister to finish her studies there. Little Crane Grass, when you're in the Hu Clan, you have to study hard. I hope that you can also study at the Saber Sovereign Pavilion in the future."
Little Crane Grass couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at Hu Xian 'er and said, "Big Sister Xian' er, can I also study at the Saber Sovereign Pavilion? Isn't it only for people like the Liu Clan's Young Master to study there? Also, don't Plant Masters study at the Plant Master Society? Why do I have to go to the Saber Sovereign Pavilion? "
Hu Xian 'er shook her head and said, "Crane Grass, you're wrong. The Plant Master Guild isn't a place where a Plant Master can learn. The Plant Master Guild is a platform for Plant Masters to communicate with each other. They only nurture Soul Plant Masters who are around ten years old, and the duration of nurturing them is about three years. After that, whether you want to become a Plant Master or a Pharmacist is up to you. If you want to become a Plant Master or a Pharmacist, then you have to join some big Plant Master Clans or Plant Masters, or enter some large institutions. Only then can you truly become a formidable Plant Master."
Only then can you become a true Plant Master. "When Little Crane Grass heard Hu Xian 'er, he understood. To put it bluntly, the Plant Master Society was just a platform. They were only responsible for nurturing ordinary Plant Masters. It was like an elementary school. If you want to learn more, then you have to go to a better school to learn.
In this world, there were a lot of Soul Grafters that didn't have the talent of the little crane grass. Those Plant Master Clans wouldn't just take a Soul Grafter into their clan and nurture them. That was impossible. After all, a clan's resources were limited. This was the reason why the Plant Master Clans were so useful.
After three years of nurturing by the Plant Master Society, a person's potential could be roughly seen. If you can't become a Plant Master or an Alchemist after three years of nurturing, then it meant that you didn't have much potential. There was no need for you to continue your studies. If you can become a Plant Master or an Alchemist during these three years of nurturing, then there would be countless people who would want to nurture you.
The nurturing process of the Plant Master Society was like a screening process. It allowed people to see who was sand and who was pearls.
Hu Xian 'er looked at Little Crane Grass and continued, "Of course, the Plant Master Association isn't that simple. In fact, there are three main functions of the Plant Master Association. One is to cultivate, cultivate those ordinary soul planters so that those soul planters can become plant masters or pharmacists. The second is to communicate. The communication between plant masters is a must. For example, if a plant master wants to concoct a medicine but lacks a few medicinal herbs, he can issue some tasks through the Plant Master Association, asking the people in the association to help him find the medicinal herbs and he will pay the corresponding remuneration. The third is to maintain the status of the plant master. For example, wherever a plant master is treated unfairly, the Plant Master Association will appear and communicate with the relevant local personnel to maintain the rights and status of the plant master. This is very important. It is precisely because of the existence of the Plant Master Association that the various countries in the Soul World are very respectful to the plant masters and dare not be rude to them. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to offending the entire Plant Master Association and then they would be in big trouble."
Little Crane Grass nodded. He really didn't expect that the Plant Master Society had such an ability. Thinking about it, it was also reasonable. Take the Blade Spirit Country for example. If the Blade Spirit Country didn't respect the Plant Master Society, then the Plant Master Society would come forward to communicate with the Blade Spirit Country. If the Blade Spirit Country still didn't respect the Plant Master Society, then the Plant Master Society could impose sanctions on the entire Blade Spirit Country. For example, they could block their new crops, not sending Plant Masters to treat the diseased plants in their country and so on. Such sanctions were very serious for a country and would affect the country's strength.
