"I'm going to buy this, this, and this..." Ye Ning was picking up all kinds of lettuce.

"Why do you buy so much food, and it needs to be processed. Qiu Yue looked at his behavior and couldn't help but express doubts, he still remembered the previous meal, black and mushy, unusually sour, salty, as if there was no good taste.

"Of course it's going to be a party, and in the evening, we'll go to that place, it's quite a private place, and it's very suitable for seeing the wonders. After Ye Ning finished speaking, he continued to buy things.

"Gatherings, wonders?" Ye Chen turned his head to look at Qiu Yue, hoping that he could explain.

"By the way, you don't know yet, let me explain it to you. Qiu Yue looked at Ye Chen's puzzled expression, and explained while Ye Ning was shopping. "We here, well, or the strange courtyard is different from the outside, the source of this annual celebration is prayer, it is a long time ago in the bloody years, there was a wave of prayer, basically at the end of each year, everyone will pray that the next year can get rid of the pouring of war, the result is naturally impossible, but that kind of behavior has been handed down, and now it has become a festival of celebration, but now, at the apex of this festival, that is, at midnight, everyone will close their eyes, let go of their body and mind, and make a wish, which is a prayer from the depths of a person's heart, and I heard everyone say that it is very effective, but I never felt it. Qiu Yue explained the origin of the festival.

"Pray?" Ye Chen thought, how come I had never heard of it?

"Yes, it's a prayer, but there is a condition, and that is that you must enter a state called ethereal with an absolutely pure heart, and then the wish will be fulfilled. Ye Ning suddenly interjected, and then bought something interestingly.

"Cut~ Don't you just want to say that my heart is not pure enough, brother, I am still a virgin, how can I not be pure!" Qiu Yue glanced at Ye Ning with disdain.

"Ethereal?" Ye Chen wondered.

"There is such a saying, if the person who makes a wish enters the ethereal state, although his wish is not spoken, it can be heard by the people around him, which is very beautiful~ It's just that I've never seen it. Qiu Yue broke the beautiful dream instantly, bloomed like a bubble with beautiful colors, and then disappeared endlessly.

"Can you hear it?" Ye Chen also shook his head, not believing, how could anyone hear the voice in other people's heads?

"Yes, but don't get your hopes up, everyone is basically pretending, although some people do make sincere wishes, but there are basically few that can be realized, well, among the people I am in contact with, they are all like this. Qiu Yue thought that Ye Chen had an idea, so he extinguished it mercilessly.

"That's, just think about how can it be realized?" Ye Chen still said more realistically, Ye Chen is more willing to believe in his theory than praying, and the prayer without action is just a bubble, even if it is beautiful, it is just a flash in the pan.

"That being said, but, that's not bad, it's not going to happen, but it gives a person hope, isn't it, it's a little strange to say that, but that's how the race came alive in those bloody years at that time. In some ways, it's not an exaggeration to say that this festival led to all this. Qiu Yue thought of some of the sporadic histories recorded by the family.

"You know?" Ye Chen was startled, didn't the senior who gave me the nameless Fa cultivator say that basically no one knew about the past?

"What do you know?" Qiu Yue was stunned, what is it?

"Oh, nothing. Ye Chen thought suspiciously, "Something is wrong, didn't he say that not many people know? Such a coincidence?"

"What are you muttering about?" Qiu Yue asked worriedly, looking at the contemplative Ye Chen, muttering something.

"No... It's nothing. Ye Chen temporarily put aside his doubts and asked instead, "Then so much lettuce that needs to be processed is for a party." ”

"Yes, but I'm more opposed, because, Yuexi's sour, my sister's salty, Hongyi's black, although the party doesn't have to be delicious, but it's hard to swallow, it's not a good thing. Qiu Yue has an unusually deep memory of that meal, and it is unforgettable.

"No, Hongyi's cooking is very delicious, although it is dark~" Ye Chen thought about the feeling of eating not long ago, "That night, I didn't think much about it, so I ate it directly, and found that the taste was actually quite good, and my lips and teeth were fragrant, and now I think about it, I still have a feeling of endless aftertaste, and I have the idea of trying it again." "Ye Chen exposed something that looked black at the time, and it was really delicious.

"How is it possible?!" Qiu Yue still didn't believe it, "That black is delicious, and it still smells good?" It's just that the more he said it, the more he felt that it was wrong, Ye Ning was really excited when he received my share, could it be ······

"Damn, I was fooled~" Qiu Yue reacted, that is to say, I sent the food out by myself at the beginning! Thinking of this, comparing the dishes that looked beautiful to the ones I ate, I was so sad~ My heart hurt so much~ It hurts so much~

"Then what is this hat for?" Ye Chen saw a sign not far away, which was necessary for the New Year.

"It's the mana paraphernalia that diffuses after receiving the spectacle. Qiu Yue came back to his senses and explained to Ye Chen in a heartache.

"Diffuse mana?" Ye Chen wondered, what was going on.

"Our New Year here is different from the outside, not only is it strange to watch, but after that, there will be an unusually fresh breath, which is a very pure source of mana, whether it is a mage, The monk is still the owner of the strange ability, it is a pity to absorb the source power, the mage absorbs it will increase physical strength, and the monk is to purify the turbidity of the mana in the body, as for the trickery, it is not clear, I don't know what will happen, but because the progress is not great, and the role here is basically gone when it enters the growth period, so the most noteworthy thing here is the spectacle, but there are also people who have the attitude of talking about something more than nothing. ”

"There's something else to say~" Ye Chen looked at the hat and pondered.

Qiu Yue was still annoyed that the food he had received was actually sent away by me, and he burst into tears.

"Do you know the Holy City?" said Ye Chen, who said endlessly.

"Holy City?" Qiu Yue looked at Yechen suspiciously, "I know!" Qiu Yue said firmly.

"What? you know, it's there!" Ye Chen said excitedly.

"Where? I don't know. Qiu Yue replied.

"But didn't you say you knew?" Ye Chen hated to beat this guy once.

"That's right, basically everyone knows this!" Qiu Yue's eyes drifted to the side and stared at the people here.

"Uh~" Ye Chen was stunned for a moment and calmed down. "What the hell is going on, what is the situation that everyone you are talking about?"

"It is a very beautiful place, there is no fighting, people live together in harmony, even if an artifact falls on the ground, no one will come to pick it up, it will quietly wait for the arrival of the owner, or decay and dissipate with time. Qiu Yue's yearning eyes. "As for where you are talking about, I want to know too!" Qiu Yue quipped. "But ah, it's just a legend, a beautiful legend, and there is no place for it now. Qiu Yue came to a conclusion.

After listening to this passage, Ye Chen summed it up, half and half, only half true, or rather, what I heard was false? Alas, I don't understand. But the old man won't lie to me, right, and that senior, is there anything I don't know. And when I asked Yuexi, why did she say she didn't know?

"Okay, don't think about those empty things, Ye Ning has bought it, let's go back and put it, it must be dark and delicious at noon~" Qiu Yue pulled Ye Chen and walked back, beckoning Ye Ning back to the dormitory.

Ye Chen walked on the road, still thinking, when the ** attack must know something, but what she knows is only what everyone knows, so after I finished talking to her, I thought that it was different from what I said, and it should be like this that she said that she didn't know, and in the sparring with the dean, she did tell me that the existence of the Holy City was indeed undoubted. But he knows some things about the bloody history, and he shouldn't lie about it, what the hell is going on. When I asked the dean before, he didn't know very clearly, only said that he knew some sporadic things in Sword Valley, which were not comprehensive, and Pink Rabbit also made it clear that he didn't know much about these things.

Yechen walked tangledly, and after returning to the dormitory, Ye Ning said, You wait, I'll let Hongyi do it. After that, I went to find Hongyi.

Yechen thought for a long time, but he didn't figure out what the hell was going on.

With Ye Chen's stinky and bitter face and Qiu Yuehuai's expectation for food, lunch was prepared, and Ye Ning brought it over.

"Alright, let's eat. "Three copies, just three people.

"Hey, what about Yuexi?" asked Ye Chen.

"They have made an appointment with Hongyi, as if they want to prepare something, Hongyi is at home to make lunch for us, and they will go out in a while. Ye Ning said.

"Oh~" Ye Chen responded.

"Alas~ No matter what they do, my conscienceless sister treats my brother cruelly, it's really inhumane. Now that I have something delicious, I won't keep her!" After saying that, he started, still looking dark, but he ate very well.

"Ye Ning, do you know astrologers?" Ye Chen brought up a word that he hadn't used for a long time.

"Astrologer?" Ye Ning thought for a moment. "It's the weird people who wear cloaks all day, and don't even eat with non-astrologers. Ye Ning stared at Ye Chen, "I don't know much, and you basically know what I know, as for them always haunting unknown places, who knows what they are doing, and those people's behavior is very weird, they can quarrel with great excitement over a sentence, and they can also use very valuable artifacts for unknown experiments, even if they are broken, they don't feel distressed, I don't know who they are, I don't think I can know much." No, what are you doing here? ”

"Oh, I'm just weird that I've seen these people behave before. "Night and morning covered.

"Don't think about those people, let's think about the content of the prayer at night~" Qiu Yue said heartlessly while eating food.

"Yes, whatever you do, just put it down and enjoy this last time. Ye Ning patted Ye Chen's shoulder.

"Finally?" Ye Chen wondered.

"Because of the academy competition. Ye Ning said, his face was calm, as if there were no waves in the ancient well, but these words calmed down the heartless Qiu Yue.

"Courtyard competition?" Ye Chen found that he had a lot of doubts today. "It's not going to be the three major academy competitions. ”

"yes, that's the reason for the competition. Qiu Yue said, "You shouldn't know, after all, your life here is still short, and the courtyard competition is called the corner competition in our place, or in the strange courtyard." Qiu Yue took a bite, and the originally delicious dishes seemed to be no longer delicious, "This starts with the students of our academy, in fact, our academy is a large orphanage. Most of the people here are orphans, and there aren't many who are really involved with treachery, such as my sister and I. So there's basically nothing like bullying here. So for many people, this place is a home existence. After Qiu Yue finished speaking, he was quite emotional, and Ye Ning was also listening from the sidelines, but did not speak.

"Then it's time to talk about the academy competition, in fact, one of the purposes of the so-called three major academy competitions is to find good students of our academy, such as potential mages or monks, and then poach them by opening various conditions. "Indignant Qiu Yue.

"Then it's good to refuse. Yechen said.

"If you say no, it's okay at the time, but when you get out of the academy, there will be all kinds of problems. Qiu Yue denied it.

"What about the water?" Ye Chen asked.

"Someone has tried this method of yours, and someone has deliberately released water before, but people just observed you, and in the end they were dug up, and you think, the people who went to see it were all people who specialized in digging talents, and it was difficult to hide it from them. Qiu Yue once again wiped out the last hope.

"The academy has no action?" Ye Chen thought that the academy had to perform before it could come.

"Why do you have it? People have that talent, and they are willing to go, there is no reason to stop it~" Qiu Yue finished the last bite.

"That's right~" Yechen put down the dishes and finished eating.

"Okay, let's not talk about these ruining things, think about the content of the prayer at night!" Ye Ning changed the subject.

"Well, as long as you can fool those people's eyes, you don't have to go, right, if that's the case, maybe you can. Ye Chen said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, don't comfort me, I'm reluctant, but I can learn a lot of things that I don't have here. Ye Ning glanced at the serious Yechen gratefully.

"Are you serious?" Qiu Yue stared at him.

"Hmm!" Ye Chen nodded. "I think you can give it a try, anyway, it doesn't matter if you are discovered, people will not care about what you don't have to do with your best in the past, and if you succeed, will it not be long before you wish?"

"You're right, but..." Hesitant Ye Ning.

"But you're a big-headed ghost. Qiu Yue punched, "You just leave Hongyi here alone, if you don't have you, how will she live in the future!"

"Then try it~" Ye Ning made up his mind.

Then Ye Chen took Ye Ning to the practice ground.

Qiu Yue also ran over, saying that he wanted to see it.

In the other place, Yuexi, Qiu Bi stared there.

On the side, Xue Kui was accompanying Hongyi, and it could be seen from her uneasy look that Ye Ning was no longer beside her, and she always felt empty.

"Okay, don't think too much about it, maybe someone won't poach him. Xue Kui comforted.

"Impossible, Ye Ning's talent is so good, it will definitely be discovered. Hongyi heard him say that Ye Ning was not good, and immediately refuted.

"You don't have to comfort me, I can't cultivate, I can't feel the existence of magic particles, and if Ye Ning hadn't brought me here, I would have died a long time ago, let alone awaken this ability. Hongyi explained.

In this way, Xue Kui on the side didn't have anything to comfort her, just patted her on the back. At first, she was reluctant to do anything, but she finally came here, hoping that the woman in front of her would not be the same as herself, right, but is it possible? Xue Kui didn't know, but she hoped that Hongyi would no longer be sad to the point of being true.

Side.

"You demon girl, why are you robbing my night!" Yuexi roared.

"What's your night, I see that you are very fierce to him, and I can't tell it's yours at all~" Qiu Bi was not to be outdone.

"Hmph~ The demon girl who was seen taking a bath is not qualified to say that~" Yuexi immediately made a trick.

"You... What are you talking about!" Sure enough, it was a trick, which directly made Qiu Bi angry.

Just when they were about to happen.

"Don't be noisy, Hongyi is like this, you are still in the mood to quarrel. Xue Kui couldn't look at it, so she didn't come to comfort her.

"Do you think you're sleeping next to Yechen, I don't know? Yuexi didn't appreciate it.

"Uh~ you know that, too. "Xue Kui is embarrassed.

"Oh, Sister Aoi, why don't we join forces to kick her away, how about you be big and me small?" Qiu Bi fanned the flames on the side.

"Impossible. Xue Kui said with great certainty.

These words made Yuexi and Qiu Bi stunned, they were just habitually making trouble, but they didn't expect to encounter such a sentence.

Then he took Xue Kui and Hongyi to the secret location and began to set it up.

As the sun sets, the orange colors reflect the crimson clouds, and the beautiful fireballs surround the enchanting clouds, like a dancer wearing crimson ribbons, blooming beautifully to signal the end of the day.
