(The continent has a strange Ming, a bit like a Western hybrid of Earth's ancient times.) It's just that some countries are westward and some are biased. The forest empire is relatively biased, it has a set of aristocratic system, and those who are blind without learning cannot be knighted, and those who have special skills in learning can also be knighted. In addition, magistrates also need a certain amount of academic skills to be competent, so the entire empire has a strong learning atmosphere, and it is a rare country on the mainland that attaches equal importance to military force. Perhaps because of this, the country has been strong since its founding.

After all, warriors consider things in a completely different direction than people, and they often only know how to convince people with force, so rebellions often occur. It is not difficult to find one or two smart people in the country, but it is impossible to have so many talents who manage the local area, and it is absolutely impossible to do it without a good atmosphere. The Forest Empire relied on this system to develop and become powerful, but now that all countries on the continent are following suit, there is not much advantage in this regard. So seriously, the history of learning in the mainland is not very long, from the founding of the Lin Empire, it is about 500 years. ）

Howard. Yun lost his parents when he was a teenager, so he naturally didn't want his sister to work in such a dangerous job. I just hope that she will learn more things, and she can marry a good man in peace in the future. So Xiaoyu has been growing up in the academy, and later was admitted to Kyoto Academy with excellent grades, and she is an authentic lady. Kyoto Academy is a sacred place of learning on the mainland, located in Tokuken Castle, the capital of the Hayashi Empire. Just like the Titan Academy of Magic, the magic holy land of the Magic Empire, and the Brave Academy, the martial arts holy land of the Red Sun Empire, it has a lofty status. Although in terms of strength, some academies are not much worse than them, but that is an honor that belongs to the "source", and no one can take it away.

I couldn't see that Xiaoyu, who was chasing Oreo and fighting, was actually a talented girl, and suddenly thought that she was still angry and ran away just now, so hurry up and take a look. Brother Yun was also going to receive guests, so I had to go to Xiaoyu alone. Thinking that Xiaoyu didn't approve of me being her brother, naturally she didn't hate me, could it be that she liked me. Xiaoyu is only 16 years old, completely a child, and may have a little affection for me, but it is definitely not love. Maybe when she grows up, she understands that she is just a playful child now.

After asking the others, she found out that she had run back to her room. knocked on the door a few times, but Xiaoyu still didn't open it, so he had to make a killer move, and said: "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you, Oreo has come to see you, and if you don't open the door, it will ignore you." After waiting for a while, I still didn't see her open the door. Pretending to be walking, deliberately putting a heavy foot. Sure enough, Xiaoyu immediately ran to open the door, but she still had an angry expression on her face.

Xiaoyu pulled me in and closed the door. I immediately felt that something was wrong and hurriedly asked, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong?" Don't be angry, I'm only going to be Brother Yun's younger brother, not your brother. ”

Xiaoyu didn't answer, was silent for a moment, and said, "Brother Renault, don't you like me?" ”

It seems that Xiaoyu really likes me a little, but she is so small and dizzy, she blames herself for having an ambiguous attitude towards her at the beginning. I had to stubbornly reply: "How so? You're so cute, just like my own sister, how could you not like it. ”

"Do you only treat me as your sister? But I like you, and I want to be by your side forever. I don't want you to be my brother. Xiaoyu burst into tears, and I felt distressed. hurriedly comforted: "Xiaoyu, you are still young, you don't understand what love is, and when you grow up, you will naturally find your true love." "Dizzy, I haven't been in love in my life, I didn't expect to be able to teach people today. He said: "Xiaoyu, I'm still your brother Renault, don't be sad, Oreo borrowed you to play, and we still have to go to the succession celebration of Brother Yun." ”

Successfully changed the topic, Xiaoyu obviously knew that today was a good day and should not cry. Putting away his tears, he hugged Oreo tightly in his arms, and walked down the hall with his head down.

It was almost noon, the guests had arrived, and the hall was full of several tables. I was pulled to the chief by Brother Yun, and most of the guests who came were celebrities from the small town, and I couldn't help but talk about it when they saw me. Brother Yun hurriedly introduced: "This is my newly recognized brother-in-law, named Renault. I had no choice but to stand up and salute.

Brother Yun is the new head of the regiment today, so he naturally wants to make a bold statement, saying: "Thank you for coming to our group, thank you for your support to the glory all the time, today I will inherit the wisdom of my predecessors and serve you conscientiously." Some time ago, our regiment did not take over the task because of some internal affairs, and now I order the regimental affairs to continue as usual. If you have any entrustment, our group will do our best. (The mercenary group on the mainland is known for its unity, and when there is a dispute within the group, the dispute must be resolved before taking the task)

Magic Crystal Shop Owner Howard. Jin Tao, one of the people who knew him, immediately asked, "Captain Yun agreed to my commission?" Brother Yun nodded in agreement, and Jin Tao was immediately overjoyed. I also vaguely guessed something. The two didn't talk about it carefully, and they probably knew that the occasion was inappropriate.

The Radiant Mercenary Group is the only mercenary group in the small town, and they may be used in ordinary times for big and small things in the city, so naturally the relationship is good. The guests and hosts are suitable, and they return happily, knowing that the mercenary group is still busy today, I will also say goodbye in due course.

Xiaoyu has been depressed today, it's all my fault, I didn't dare to stay here anymore, it's better to avoid the limelight.

The next day, when I went to look for Xiaoyu again, I felt that she was much better, at least she was no longer crying and sad. Still walking towards me, Oreo in his arms, and laughing with me, but I always feel a little weird.

Yesterday I heard that she has a deep learning background, so I wanted to learn more about her. And asked a little strangely, "You are really a student of Kyoto Academy, why can't I see it at all?" Xiaoyu replied: "The mercenary group is all half-blind, can I talk to them about poetry and songs?" If I am the same every day, where will anyone play with me? ”

Reasonable...... After all, Xiaoyu is a student of Kyoto Academy, and has a systematic understanding of the academic history of the mainland. I thought I was half a student, listening carefully to what she had to say, and occasionally interjecting. But these words were enough to make Xiaoyu stunned. When I was a child, because of my practice, I had a soft spot for the ancients, and I memorized a lot of Tang and Song poems, and there were so many famous classics throughout the ages, how could this continent be surpassed in just 500 years. Xiaoyu talked about the joy of poetry, but I didn't have this attainment, it's okay to make a comment.

Staying until dark, I gained a lot, and Xiaoyu was also smiling, I knew it was a real smile. Later, Brother Yun came over and said to me, "Renault, I have accepted the commission and plan to leave for Kyoto Dexuan City in 10 days." In the past 10 days, I have to retreat and practice, Xiaoyu has been handed over to you to take care of, and she listens to you the most. ”

When I heard that I was going to Kyoto, I was also very interested, and said, "I wonder if Brother Yun is convenient for me to go with me?" I wanted to see the hustle and bustle of Kyoto. ”

Xiaoyu also answered: "Okay, okay, I'm about to go to school, so I'm going to go together." ”

Brother Yun smiled: "Although you are not a member of the mercenary group, you can't be together according to the regulations, but if you are willing to hand over 1 gold coin, I can still accept this commission." I laughed when I heard him say something funny. However, I still paid 100,000 gold coins to support their group affairs, who said that I have money and no place to spend......

I've been secretly watching Wren's performance for the past 10 days, and I can see that he is loyal to me. On the 10th day, I called him to my room, told him everything, and showed my strength. It's just that the volley void has already shocked him, coupled with the momentum I deliberately exerted on him, I have planted an image of my invincibility in his heart, and he will not betray again, unless one day he is stronger than me. Then he passed on his Ten Thousand Laws to Return to the Sect Heart Method, helped him open up some of the meridians, and instructed him to cultivate slowly, so that he could ask the people in the village to teach him martial arts tricks in the future.

I only took a few Saint Quartz stones, and left for the rest of the stuff here, and left for the Radiant Mercenary Regiment's station.

Brother Yun has already exited the customs, and it can be seen that he has entered the realm quickly, and he already has master-level strength. As the team was about to set off, I already knew what the owner of the spar shop meant, and he wanted to ship the spar to Kyoto for auction. However, the holy crystal is too precious, and it is thousands of miles away from Kyoto, and once it is robbed, it will be lost, so it costs 1 million gold coins to entrust the whole group of the Radiant Mercenary Group to escort the whole process, which can be described as a full amount of money. But I know that the more this happens, the more people suspect that the escort is a treasure. In the past few days, there have been a lot of suspicious people in the small town, and I am afraid that there will be many crises along the way.

Brother Yun, they naturally noticed this, and gave everyone a warning before setting off to strengthen their vigilance. The saint quartz was collected by Brother Yun, and a few truckloads of boxes full of dirt were used as a cover before setting off cautiously.

Try to take the official road along the way, and it's okay to delay the time, as long as the things are not lost. Therefore, there were only a few thieves on the road, and when we saw that there were many of us, they fled from the wind. In the first few days, it was stable, and nearly half of the trip was made, and everyone relaxed.

Today, Xiaoyu and I are hiding in the carriage to talk about the past and the present, although I have not formally learned to paint, but with my understanding of the Tao, the Tao is a novel and unique point of view. Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are self-contained, and practicing to the depths is also the understanding of the Tao. Xiaoyu's painting skills have reached a bottleneck, and my words inspired her a lot, and she made a picture of Xiaochun on the spot. Melt into the scene, and the spring is on the paper. I can't help but praise a "good painting", but unfortunately I am also a theoretical king, Xiaoyu thought that I had excellent painting skills, and begged me to paint one, so I had to pretend to be unfathomable, and said: "The calligraphy and painting are natural, and the magic hand can get it." "It's really a sin to not only plagiarize the poetry of the predecessors, but also deceive Xiaoyu...... Seeing that the stars were about to appear in her eyes, I hurried away and got back to my carriage.
