Chapter XXV
The college cafeteria is plentiful and varied. Although it was only a breakfast, it was still a break time, but the preparation of the cafeteria was not sloppy at all.
There are all kinds of snacks, rice flour and pastries, and even the kitchen can make a customized breakfast for you. Of course, these costs are not the same, and the more extravagant prices are naturally more expensive. There are not a few children of the family in the academy, and they can't stand the slightest grievance in life.
Of course, these canteens were not built by the college, but were owned by the commercial firm, jointly with the college, or contracted. If not, how could an upright academy endure such an unhealthy atmosphere.
They are all students of the outer courtyard, and they can know the financial resources of their families by looking at the conversation and dressing, so there is no wanton waste when eating breakfast.
Shen Ayaka ordered a drawer of her favorite sweet cakes and a bowl of vegetable porridge, and Ling Chen naturally had a big meat bun and white rice porridge. He is not picky about eating, in fact, people who have come out of the Eternal Demon Forbidden, as long as it is food, will not have much opinion.
"Are you working as an assistant to Tutor Shen Yixiu?" asked casually during the meal.
After all, we have to find some topics to talk about, otherwise wouldn't the atmosphere be very awkward for the two of them to bury their heads in breakfast like this.
"That's right. Shen Ayaka took a small bite of the sweet cake and nodded.
There is a diligent position of tutor assistant in the college, and there are even several assistants for the same tutor. The purpose is naturally to set up more diligent positions for students to study diligently. Of course, the purpose is also to reduce the burden on the instructor. It is very likely that a tutor will lead one or more classes, and one person will definitely not be busy.
"You seem to be doing diligent study, right?" Shen Ayaka said, "I see that many of your elective courses have been canceled. ”
The elective courses in the college can be chosen by yourself, and you can choose endlessly. The end result is actually to take enough credits to graduate when the time comes.
"Well, I'm in Tibet. Ling Chen said.
"I didn't expect you to be quite good. Shen Ayaka was a little surprised, "Tibet's diligent study opportunities are not available to anyone. ”
Ling Chen smiled and didn't explain anything.
"But it's been so long, and it's the first time I've seen someone take the initiative to ask Mr. Shen questions. Seeing that Ling Chen didn't answer, Shen Ayaka also took the initiative to change the topic.
"Isn't it rare for people to ask questions from their mentors?" Ling Chen was puzzled.
Asking questions should be something that every student does. After all, after learning new knowledge in each class, there will still be various problems when reviewing. Both theoretically and spiritually. Therefore, it is very common to ask questions to tutors in their spare time.
"It's very rare for people to ask Mr. Shen. Shen Ayaka corrected, "You should be able to see it too, right? ”
"Hmm. Ling Chen nodded: "It feels a little old-fashioned, but the attitude towards learning is very serious." ”
"Yes, it's old-fashioned, and I love everything more seriously. But in fact, Mr. Shen is a very good person, but his temper is a little stinky. He also wants to really teach a group of talents, which is why he is so strict, but it seems to backfire. Shen Ayaka pursed her lips rarely, as if she was not worthy of Shen Yixiu's mentor.
"How do you know so well?" Seeing her like this, Ling Chen asked jokingly.
"Because... Because I'm Mr. Shen's assistant. Shen Ayaka looked like a matter of course.
"Teacher Shen shouldn't just teach Introduction to Practice, right?" It stands to reason that a teacher who is so rigorous in his studies only teaches the elementary Introduction to Practice, is it a bit too condescending?
"Of course. Shen Ayaka nodded affirmatively, "Teacher Shen used to teach "Ancient Records". ”
"Gu Ji?!" Ling Chen was quite surprised, "Why is such a powerful tutor going to teach the students of the outer courtyard?"
Ancient age, a name that has been submerged in the long river of history. After countless big waves and sands, it was finally replaced by reality. It is the first meditation in the world
The classics, which also include historical, humanistic and other factors, are almost an ancient encyclopedia. After the careful study and adaptation of scholars of the past generations, the practice methods and customs and humanities of various majors have gradually been formed.
However, with the popularity of the new method, the old version of the practice method is not only obscure, but also slow to achieve. Compared to the new cultivation method, it is simply a world of difference. Therefore, after hundreds of years of baptism, the course of ancient history has finally withdrawn from its own historical stage.
"Who knows?" Shen Ayaka shook her head, but there was an indescribable bitterness in her words.
But it was only at that moment that Shen Ayaka returned to being that lively and active girl.
"Thanks, I'm ready to eat. The girl said with a grin.
After eating breakfast and saying goodbye to Shen Ayaxiang, Ling Chen planned to go out of the academy and go to Duobao Pavilion.
Ling Chenyue felt that the number of spirit stones was wrong, and someone had been secretly sending money to his warrant. Today is the beginning of the month, check the number of spirit stones in the warrant again, and Ling Chen will probably have the bottom in his heart.
Looking for the front desk, after Ling Chen went through the relevant procedures, he did find that there were two thousand more spirit stones in the warrant. It's been a whole year since the remittance, why is there still no news from the eldest brother?
"Can you find out who sent it? Ling Chen asked with some reluctance.
"I'm sorry, a single remittance of more than 5,000 yuan will be recorded, and there will also be a record of the physical transaction of the spirit stone. You are in the former, but the amount is insufficient. The staff was very polite to answer Ling Chen's questions.
Ling Chen smiled perfunctorily, clenched his fists slightly, and turned away with some disappointment.
Knowing that the eldest brother would send money to Ling Chen every month, but he could never contact him, Ling Chen's heart was very uncomfortable. As the only relative of Ling Chen in this world, he sincerely hopes that everything is fine for his eldest brother in Wanyuan Town.
Be able to live a simple and peaceful life. Then marry a daughter-in-law and settle down to live. And then Ling Chen, after graduation, he went back to his hometown to become an official and a half-job, which can be regarded as returning to his hometown.
The mood was a little low, Ling Chen buried his head and didn't know what he was thinking. At the corner of the street behind him, a gloomy eye watched Ling Chen's back go into the distance. Immediately, on the side of another street, a figure quietly followed.
Ling Chen didn't seem to notice it, still lowered his head and didn't say a word, looking dejected.
Another street corner, this road is not to the East Saint Academy. Ling Chen seemed to be distracted, and he didn't even realize that he had taken the wrong path.
After a few breaths, a man dressed in ordinary clothes casually came to the corner. He glanced ahead, then looked around, but found that he could not find the familiar figure. The man's heart sank, and he immediately ran away.
In an inconspicuous courtyard wall brick and tile, Ling Chen held his breath and concentrated. After the man ran away, he waited a few more moments before climbing down the courtyard wall and exiting through another exit.
"My lord, I lost it. The man in ordinary clothes was now reporting to a middle-aged man on the corner of the street, also dressed in civilian clothes.
"Even a stinky boy who stinks before he dries can be lost, huh. The middle-aged man let out two snorts, looking faintly angry.
"The subordinates are incompetent. Seeing this, the man hurriedly clenched his fists, and at the same time knelt on one knee, as if he had admitted his mistake and accepted punishment.
"Let the second team keep an eye on the gates of the academy for me, and I must catch him today. If you miss this opportunity, you'll all roll me up and fuck off. A touch of evil air welled up between the middle-aged man's eyebrows, and the blackness was pervasive.
"Yes!" the man was relieved, and quickly fled.
Ling Chen only thought that the ruffians on the street were staring at him, and he shook off with a casual trick, and he didn't care too much. The streets of the main city are very peaceful, but deep alleys like this are the best places for ruffians to commit crimes. They usually run after grabbing, and they are familiar with the street scene and know the shortcuts, and the guards can't catch people at all.
The last time Mu Xiu, Ling Chen and Wang Qingyun met,
The result was naturally a beating for the other party. But this time, Ling Chen saw that there were patrolling guards on the street not far away, and he didn't want to cause trouble, so he just hid over.
If it was like last time, although the two of them were refreshed with their fists, they were invited by the guards to drink tea for a long time. The main thing is to record confessions, but nothing else. After learning that the two of them were students of the Eastern Saint Academy, these guards were polite. It's just that in terms of time, they also wasted a precious half-day of bathing.
Since the Ancient Demon Forbidden, Ling Chen has learned a kind of early warning consciousness, that is, he can sense the evil qi that exists within a certain range. Of course, the seal repair with strong spiritual power can even give a synchronous warning at the moment when danger appears. It's like reading a mind, seeing through everything.
At the first time he was targeted, Ling Chen pretended to be frustrated, so that people could relax their vigilance so that they could escape as soon as possible. You know, there's a jungle full of man-eating beasts. The slightest carelessness will hang by a thread.
After making sure that he threw off his tail, Ling Chen stopped pretending and walked to the academy very simply.
After seeing the gate of the academy, Ling Chen's heart was a little relieved. Sure enough, the academy is the place that can give people a sense of security, even in Linyang City, which is heavily governed, there are many shadows in the dark.
The gate was in front of him, Ling Chen looked in and found that Shen Ayaka was actually here. It's a coincidence, we only met in the morning, and we actually met again now.
Shen Ayaka also saw Ling Chen, obviously a little surprised, but obviously happy.
Just when Ling Chen wanted to quickly step forward to say hello, two big men suddenly appeared in front of Ling Chen and Shen Ayaxiang, separating their sights.
"You're Ling Chen?" one of them began. The tone was very unfriendly, and Ling Chen could even hear the meaning of the interrogation from it.
Although there was some reluctance in his heart, Ling Chen still asked politely: "I don't know what the two of you have to do?"
"Punishment Division. The two of them showed the waist tag hanging between their clothes, "We suspect that you are harboring the thief, so come with us." ”
After speaking, the spiritual power of the two of them was running, and they wanted to forcibly take down Ling Chen.
"This is the academy, don't be too arrogant with the people of your Torture Division. If you want to arrest someone, you must first bring out the evidence. Although she didn't understand what was going on, Shen Ayaka still embarrassed the two of them as usual.
The two frowned at the same time when they heard this, and they seemed to be a little jealous of what Shen Ayaka said.
"First, this place does not fall under the jurisdiction of the academy, and second, the Criminal Division never talks about evidence. ”
A middle-aged man with a sinister face walked here slowly, and his words were round. He was dressed in the official uniform of the Criminal Department, wearing a red feather veil on his head, and his official position was obviously extraordinary. After the two of them saw this man, their waists unconsciously straightened a lot.
"Take it away. ”
"Wait!"
Almost at the sound of an order, four completely different spiritual forces rose into the sky and confronted each other in midair. The atmosphere was tense for a while.
A cold smile appeared at the corner of the man's mouth: "You want to resist arrest?"
A coldness suddenly penetrated into the soul, not because of this person's suppression of Ling Chen's realm, but because of the kind of cold and cruel body that could only be practiced by licking blood at the edge of the knife for many years. Rather than facing this kind of look, Ling Chen was more willing to face a cruel beast.
Ling Chen knew that he must not do anything with them at this time. If you reveal something in advance, then you are in the right hands. Behind them is the Peace Alliance, and to be against them is to be the enemy of the entire Union. As a result, the people rebelled and left their relatives, and it was difficult to move forward.
"Please help me with Mentor Bingming Haoyuan. Ling Chen withdrew his spiritual power, looking like he was at the mercy of slaughter.
"Take it. Of course, these people were not polite, and immediately buckled Ling Chen, and tied the chains that locked the spiritual power.
"Don't say anything until we come!" Shen Ayaka shouted, and then ran back to the academy to find her mentor.
The middle-aged man frowned slightly, but his cold eyes did not fluctuate in any way.
