Chapter 593: Yoda's Dog Kennel

~10 min read 1,835 words

Master Yoda's house—no, rather than calling it a house, it's more like a dog kennel.

White stone bricks, a decoration like a small maze, filled with furniture inside. However, these pieces of furniture couldn't be compared with the wooden furniture in the human world at all, not only because they were made of white stone, but also because they were very rough.

It was like furniture built randomly by someone who didn't understand furniture at all, destined to be unable to compare with furniture built by professional furniture masters.

On the furniture, some snakes, spiders, and cockroaches were all there. It was a living mountain savage's residence—no, even mountain savages didn't have Master Yoda's way of ruining things. At least in a mountain savage's home, there wouldn't be creatures like spiders and snakes.

"Don't worry." Master Yoda had seen Ye Nan's gaze fall on a green-flowered snake, thinking he was afraid. "It won't bite people."

"I know." Seeing the listless appearance of the snake, he knew that these snakes wouldn't bite people, because these snakes performed the same as those snakes in the park that had been anesthetized.

However, thinking about it, although Master Yoda was an old monster who had lived for a long time, it was impossible for him to be proficient in everything. Not being able to tame snakes was also normal. And before taming snakes, living in a room with snakes that hadn't been anesthetized was purely looking for suffering.

Ye Nan looked at the dog-kennel-like entrance, looked at Master Yoda who was already inside, gritted his teeth, and crawled in.

This entrance was too small, so small that even if he tried his best to lie horizontally and keep his body flat, it was difficult to get in. After a struggle, he finally got in.

Compared to the door, it was much more spacious inside. Although it still couldn't allow him to stand directly, as long as he bent his waist, he could still move freely.

"Come. Eat." After Ye Nan entered, Master Yoda handed over a pot.

Ye Nan curiously took the pot and looked, only to see a pot of viscous liquid food inside.

"What is this?"

"Roots, bark, and some other local specialties on Dagobah, mixed together and boiled, and it became like this." Master Yoda said.

"Then I'll forget it." Ye Nan pushed the pot away and put it back in its original place.

He didn't care about eating. As long as he wanted, delicacies and dog shit urine had the same taste. However, he was just an ordinary person here, an ordinary attendant. As an attendant who had been following Princess Princess Liya since childhood eating delicacies, he wouldn't eat these foods that made people want to vomit when they heard about them. He firmly remembered this point.

"Pick food?" Yoda scanned Ye Nan with a strange look, but didn't speak. He just walked to the pot, stirred the liquid inside a few times, and drank it.

Seeing Master Yoda eat that pile of food, a look of unbearable expression appeared on Ye Nan's face. He frowned and said, "Do you only eat this kind of thing here?"

"If you don't eat this kind of food, what else can you eat? On this planet, there is only this kind of food. If you don't eat it, you will starve to death. Are you eating or not?" Master Yoda put a multiple-choice question before Ye Nan, and his eyes seemed to be much brighter.

Ye Nan frowned even more upon hearing this. His entanglement was all written on his face. "We can leave."

"Leave, where can we escape the pursuit of the Imperial Army?" Master Yoda showed a strange look, seemingly having a trace of curiosity about Ye Nan.

"Go to other planets. I remember someone once said, 'Great hermits hide in the court, middle hermits hide in the city, small hermits hide in the wild.'" Ye Nan said, "The universe is vast, planets are countless, and strange creatures are not non-existent. Although Master Yoda's appearance is somewhat strange, it can also be hidden."

After saying that, Ye Nan was busy explaining again, "I didn't deliberately say you were strange, it's just that you are indeed with most people..."

However, his explanation was destined to be a waste of effort. Master Yoda had already been attracted by Ye Nan's saying of "Great hermits hide in the court, middle hermits hide in the city, small hermits hide in the wild," and he fell into deep thought.

"Could it be that I have always been wrong?" Master Yoda asked himself. After the Republic was destroyed, he left the Republic. Although there was an element of being disheartened, more of it was to avoid the Empire's pursuit and preserve his useful body. So he chose Dagobah, chose this planet that was not marked on the star route navigation map, and then lived a savage life.

But now, he suddenly heard Ye Nan's saying of "Great hermits hide in the court, middle hermits hide in the city, small hermits hide in the wild," and he felt that he might have been wrong before.

Hiding on Dagobah was good, but hiding on other planets with dense crowds of people wouldn't necessarily be discovered. With the Galactic Empire's own ruling power over the various planets under its banner, wanting to find him was basically impossible.

"Where did you get this saying of 'Great hermits hide in the court, middle hermits hide in the city, small hermits hide in the wild'?" Master Yoda leaned on his cane and walked a few steps on the spot.

He had spent so many years here and had long since adapted to life here. Even if he changed to a new place, he wouldn't necessarily be able to adapt. And from the moment Ye Nan came, he knew that the peace here was about to be broken.

"Pretender, is he really a pretender?" Master Yoda asked himself in his heart, and there was no answer.

In the prophecy, he was a pretender. He saw the meeting between Ye Nan and Emperor Sith, but what he saw now was just an ordinary attendant.

"Ever since the dark side of the Force shrouded the galaxy, the prophecy has become less and less accurate." Master Yoda sighed in his heart, and his original judgment was somewhat shaken.

"I don't know who said this saying of 'Great hermits hide in the court, middle hermits hide in the city, small hermits hide in the wild.' I only know that this sentence comes from a planet called Earth." Ye Nan replied.

"Earth?" Yoda heard this planet for the first time, but this didn't hinder his desire to take a look. "If this matter can be passed safely, I will go to Earth to see, to see what kind of demeanor the person who can say this sentence has."

"What do you want to do by coming here?" Yoda asked.

"What to do?" Ye Nan was stunned. He wanted to say that he wanted to learn the Jedi Knight's advanced Force usage techniques, but he understood that he couldn't say that. Even if he said it, Yoda wouldn't teach it to him.

This wasn't a question of whether Yoda doubted him or not, but because he wasn't a Jedi Knight, and there was no Force in his body. So no matter what, Yoda wouldn't teach him advanced Force usage techniques.

As for Obi-Wan Kenobi, that was purely an accident. Obi-Wan Kenobi was afraid that he would suddenly die, so he needed someone to teach Lu Ke and watch him. But even so, Obi-Wan Kenobi still left a backup plan. He let Ye Nan bring Lu Ke to find Master Yoda, and the purpose was naturally to bypass him and let Yoda teach him personally.

If he wanted to obtain advanced Force usage techniques, he had to start from Lu Ke. Through his relationship with Lu Ke, he would extract advanced Force usage techniques bit by bit, or steal them while Master Yoda was teaching Lu Ke.

Since he couldn't say he was here to learn advanced Force usage techniques, he naturally had to change his statement. "I came here naturally to wait for Lu Ke."

"Wait for Lu Ke?" Yoda smacked his lips, didn't say good, didn't say bad, just turned around quietly.

"What's wrong with him?" Ye Nan guessed in his heart. Facing Master Yoda, he always had a feeling of not being able to see through, because Master Yoda never put his emotions on the surface. He hid them in his heart. If he couldn't read minds, he couldn't accurately judge Master Yoda's mental activities at all.

"Is it disdain for my words, or what?"

With trepidation in his heart, Ye Nan said on the surface: "Yes, waiting for Lu Ke. He will learn Force usage techniques from you and become a top-level Jedi Knight."

"Top-level Jedi Knight?" Yoda's leaving footsteps paused. "Do you know what kind of person a top-level Jedi Knight is?"

"A full-force strike can destroy a planet." Ye Nan replied.

Because of the knowledge Obi-Wan Kenobi gave him, he had a certain understanding of Jedi Knights, knowing that a Jedi Knight who could destroy a planet with a full-force strike truly existed.

"Obi-Wan Kenobi told you?" Master Yoda laughed. "But what you said is not the peak of Jedi Knights. In fact, the peak of Jedi Knights is far more than that, and the Force doesn't only have that little effect. However, being able to know this is already very remarkable."

"Jedi Knights have more power than this?" Ye Nan only felt his eyes light up. Jedi Knights could do more than destroy a planet, which proved that Jedi Knights had higher realms. For someone like him who was determined to seize the power of Jedi Knights, this was a very good piece of news.

"I don't know what the true peak of Jedi Knights is." Ye Nan pretended to mention this sentence unintentionally, wanting to get the true peak of Jedi Knights from Master Yoda's mouth.

"The reason Obi-Wan Kenobi felt that the peak of Jedi Knights was destroying a planet is because Obi-Wan Kenobi's own research on the Force is too shallow. He couldn't touch the true peak of the Force. And in these years of research, I have gradually felt that realm, but it's a pity that it is too far away from me." Master Yoda shook his head, turned and left, leaving a hunched back.

Bang!

A loud noise came, as if a heavy object had fallen to the ground in the sky, and a dull sound came.

"What is this sound?" Ye Nan instinctively wanted to turn on super vision, but after thinking about it, he decided not to turn it on. No one knew what kind of perception Master Yoda had. He didn't want to capsize in the gutter.

"Go and see and you'll know." (To be continued.) ===== CHAPTER 594 =====
