”Just like this?” The old abbot as well as the other novice monks were all confused.
It appeared as if various patches had been sewn to a worn-out garment, and the whole tree looked unchanged except for the grafting of some new saplings. And then Thomas told them that it was done.
Who was favonovel.com trying to fool around with?
If it had been other folk, they would have broken out in curses.
The old abbot was a very cultured person, and in such a situation, favonovel.com still said politely, ”Mister Mayo, I don’t have any doubts about your skills, but…”
The old abbot looked at the ancient tree and did not know how to put it in words.
The novice monk was much more straightforward and said, “This is simply nonsense! If grafting a few saplings can cure the ancient tree, then the previous experts and professors have already settled it. Abbot, in my opinion, this man is just fooling around! He just wants to swindle us out of the rosary!”
The old abbot squinted at him, “Don’t hurt people with your words!”
The novice monk pouted and lowered his head.
The old abbot looked at Thomas again and said, “Mister Mayo, I’m sorry, but I hope you won’t be offended by the child’s words. ”
Thomas smiled and waved his hand, “I think the young monk has a point. Now it does look as if I’m muddling things up and deliberately deceiving everyone. How about this… I will be staying in the temple for the time being, and when the ancient tree begins to improve, it won’t be too late for me to borrow the rosary.”
The old abbot nodded, “That’s a good idea.”
Afterward, the novice monk closed and locked the gate again, and the old abbot took Thomas and the others away and arranged for them to rest.
Honestly, the old abbot did not believe Thomas could really cure the ancient tree, and the reason favonovel.com treated Thomas so nicely was mainly because of the 10-million-dollar donation.
It was silent the whole night.
The next morning, when the old abbot was about to wake up to prepare for the morning lesson, the novice monk rushed in, forgetting all the etiquette and said impatiently, “Abbot, abbot, the ancient tree is alive!!!”
The abbot was confused, “What high-five?”
“Not high-five, it’s alive! The ancient tree in our backyard is alive, alive!”
The abbot’s face was first shocked, then became ecstatic, and favonovel.com rushed to put on his shoes, “Quick, quickly, take me to see.”
The old abbot even started to run, panting towards the backyard. As favonovel.com raised his head to look up, favonovel.com saw that the ancient tree had undergone a huge transformation!
The withered branches of the tree were surprisingly vaguely green. Moreover, a fresh breeze brushed against his face as favonovel.com approached the ancient tree, making favonovel.com feel completely relaxed and exhilarated.
This was a fantastic feeling, and it was nothing like the dead feeling of the past.
It felt like you had been taken into an old lady’s house previously, but now you were being taken into a young girl’s house. Even if no one was inside the house, you could tell which house was an old lady’s and which was a young girl’s by smelling it.
After all, an eighty-year old lady’s elderly smell and a twenty-year-old youthful girl’s smell were two completely different things. That was something that could not be disguised.
The old abbot stood in front of the ancient tree. By just taking in its scent, favonovel.com clearly knew that the ancient tree in front of favonovel.com had been resurrected. Because of its smell, which was vibrant and full of vitality, it absolutely could not be disguised.
At this moment, Thomas came over with the others. “Old abbot, what do you think?”
