Chapter 54: The Sun and Moon Tree
The three of them entered the college, and on a necessary road, students in special uniforms set up a table with a banner on it, "Freshman Reception - Xingguan College Student Union". Although it was dark, it was very bright under the light of the magic lamp.
Ye Xing pulled Long Ling, and the two walked over: "Hello, we are freshmen who have just entered the school. ”
A beautiful woman smiled and said, "What a beautiful elementary schoolgirl, welcome to the Star Crown Academy." ”
"Thank you, senior sister. Ye Xing's face was slightly red.
"Are you also freshmen in the academy?" the woman looked at Long Ling and Shen Chong who were following behind Ye Xing and said, seeing them nodding, she took out three maps from the side and said, "Here is the map of our academy, which roughly depicts the facilities of the academy, you can know your location according to this map." According to the rules, new students must gather at the Sun and Moon Tree on the day of admission, and you just need to follow this avenue all the way. It's getting late, so I suggest you hurry up or you'll miss the entrance ceremony. ”
Long Ling looked at the child-like map in his hand, on which several small houses were drawn casually, representing teaching buildings, dormitories, arenas and other facilities, and he didn't know what the distance was.
"It's called a map, and it's not as good as I can draw. Long Ling couldn't help but complain.
Ye Xing hurriedly made a boo gesture to Long Ling, and then apologized to the woman: "I'm sorry, senior sister, sometimes he is just a little open-mouthed. ”
The woman smiled and said, "Don't worry, the amount of maps distributed every year is too large, and there is no way to do simple work." If you encounter any unsolvable difficulties in the future, remember to come to our student union, and we will help deal with it. ”
"Thank you, senior sister, we are leaving. Ye Xing said this, then pulled Long Ling and Shen Chong away and walked inside.
"Ji Kai, don't be open-mouthed in the future, maybe you will cause some trouble. Ye Xing said as he walked on the road.
"I didn't say anything, it's just the facts. Long Ling said indifferently.
"You don't want to think about how much trouble you've caused in Draco City. The juggling troupe performs a magic trick, and you have to run up and expose it, and we will be kicked out of the troupe. took us to steal watermelons, and was chased by the uncle with a hoe. said that he wanted to invite us to dinner, but he forgot to bring the money and took the lead in escaping the order, if Lin Feng hadn't come to the rescue in time, we would have been arrested on the spot, what else did you say you couldn't do!"
"Ahem, accidents, all accidents. Rao Yilong Ling's face couldn't help but blush, these things were indeed caused by him.
"Hmph, once is an accident, how to count two or three times. Ye Xing said.
Long Lingzheng was speechless, and Ming Chong spoke: "It's not because of these things that we have slowly become good friends who talk about everything. After thinking about everything, Long Ling will always be punished. ”
"Poof," Ye Xing said with a smile, "I remember the time when I escaped the order, although Lin Feng helped us pay in advance, he deliberately left a day's salary for washing dishes, and Ji Kai brushed the dishes in the store for a day before being released." The time when he stole the melon, he was dragged by Lao Boqiang to plant melons for him for a few days. ”
"You remember this, but spare me. Long Ling spread his hands and said.
"You call it self-inflicted. Ye Xing strode forward and said.
The three of them walked for a short time, except for a small forest at the beginning, the streets were basically lined with buildings, all kinds of restaurants, shops, and magic shops. It's a small city, but it's no wonder that judging by the markings on the map, this area is a shopping street. The streets were full of people, some of them walking alone, some of them walking in groups. Most of them are young people, and even many of the employees in the store are about the same age as Long Ling. There are street lamps on both sides of the road at intervals, which is rare outside, after all, the price of magic energy lamps in the Star Crown Kingdom is not low, and ordinary people can't afford it.
At the end of the avenue, you can see a towering tree in the distance, which is obviously night, but it exudes a white light. After walking for a while, the terrain became lower, and finally I could see the whole picture of the big tree, the huge trunk, and the countless branches that stretched out, which were hundreds of meters high. Around the tree is a lake, and in front of the lake, a crowd of black people stands, presumably where the opening ceremony will be.
Why is the opening ceremony chosen in the evening?
Long Ling complained.
"Let's go, let's not miss the opening ceremony. Long Ling said and ran out first.
Ye Xing and Shen Chong also hurried towards the crowd.
Quickly approaching the crowd, you can see that it is not the giant tree itself that glows, but the dots of light flying around the tree, and they move around the tree together, illuminating this side of the world.
The three of them reached the back of the crowd, four or five thousand people stood casually, people who knew each other greeted each other, and some people actively knew others and took the initiative to talk.
Long Ling and the three of them didn't want to enter the crowd, they just stood in the back, and the three of them were already the latest to arrive, and naturally no one came back.
"It's such a big tree, what are the points of light flying around it, fireflies?" Ye Xing said as he looked at the giant tree with an excited face.
"It seems to be an energy body. Stygian said.
"Where have you seen so many fireflies, and what do they eat?" Long Ling said.
"Of course I know, man, I really don't understand romance at all. Ye Xing said angrily.
Long Ling was about to say something, but a handsome man spoke: "Every ten days or so, the Sun and Moon Tree will release this kind of light, which contains pure magical energy, but no one can absorb it for their own use. Because of the special scenery, many people will confess under this tree, and many people call this tree the tree of fireflies, indicating that the two will be together until death. Hello, my name is Ji Xiao. ”
"Hello, my name is Ye Xing. Is what you just said true, this tree is also called the Tree of Fireflies?" Ye Xing said.
"Ye Xing, such a beautiful name, it's nice to meet you. Ji Xiao smiled and stretched out his hand, Ye Xing also shook it politely, and then let go, "The Firefly Tree is indeed another name for this tree. ”
"Well, it's just that you don't understand romance. Ye Xing turned back to Long Ling and Shen Chong and said.
"Hello, I'm Ji Xiao. Ji Xiao looked at Ye Xing and Long Ling and Ming Chong, and stretched out his hand to say.
"Ji Kai. Long Ling shook it casually.
"Stygian Rush. The strength that Stychong seemed to use was a little great, Ji Xiao's smiling face was a little deformed, and his hand trembled and said, "Brother Styx Chong's strength is not small. ”
Stygian Chong didn't speak, and stood quietly.
A hint of coldness appeared in Ji Xiao's eyes, but it disappeared immediately. It's just this trace of coldness, which was noticed by Long Ling and Ming Chong, and the two looked at each other, both understanding their respective meanings.
This person is not good at stubble, and it is better to have less contact.
"Miss Ye Xing has anything to ask, you can ask me, although I am also a freshman, but my family has always had contacts with the academy, and I know a little about the situation in the academy. Ji Xiao said to Ye Xing with a smile.
Ye Xing politely refused: "Thank you Gongzi Ji, if you are confused in the future, you will definitely ask." ”
"Haha, it doesn't matter. Ji Xiao naturally knew the meaning of Ye Xing's words, but he had watched it for so long before he saw Ye Xing such a beautiful and moving woman, and he didn't want to give up easily. Although there were two men beside her, he didn't pay attention to it and continued to talk to Ye Xing.
"Where is Miss Ye Xing from?"
"I'm from Draco City. ”
"Celestial Dragon City, it's a good place. I don't know if Miss Ye Xing has heard of the Ji Chamber of Commerce?"
"The Ji Chamber of Commerce is the first chamber of commerce in the kingdom, of course I have heard of it. ”
"It's not a secret, in fact, my father is Ji Ji, the head of the Chamber of Commerce. Ji Xiao revealed his identity.
"Are you the son of the president of the Ji Clan's Chamber of Commerce?" Ye Xing said in surprise.
"Exactly, if Miss Ye Xing needs anything in the future, just say it, and I will definitely do it for you. Ji Xiao said with a smug face.
Ye Xing wanted to agree as soon as he could, but Long Ling said before she agreed: "It turned out to be the son of the Ji Chamber of Commerce, and it was really disrespectful and disrespectful before, but the three of us still have something to do, so we won't stay longer, if you have anything to say next time, say goodbye." Long Ling didn't wait for Ji Xiao to answer, he pulled Ye Xing, who looked puzzled, and Ming Chong glanced at Ji Xiao and followed.
Looking at the disappeared figures of the three of them, Ji Xiao's face changed, and he said angrily: "I don't know what to do." ”
Recalling Ye Xing's pure and beautiful face and perfect figure, a lewd smile appeared on his face: "None of the things that Young Master Ben wants to get can run away." ”
