Rite of Arrival
"Tsk, grandma is inside, you have to at least go in and say hello, let's go!" the general pulled Mochenxing into the hall.
Ziyan: "Strange, why didn't the guards stop them?"
Noona glared at Ziyan: "Don't speak. β
Ziyan: "......"
Noona patted Zero on the back: "Okay, let's go?"
Zero shook his head: "I want to know about my brother. β
"......" Noonardo sighed, and could only wait here helplessly.
Ziyan is more idle, look at it here and there, the more I look at it, the more I feel that this Dragonborn Mansion is very large, but it is not as exquisite as other mansions, but it is a very clean and simple.
After shopping around, Ziyan came back, and saw that Zero was still crying there, and couldn't help but feel a little pitiful, in the past few hours, many descendants of the demon family have come one after another, Ziyan found that many people are not qualified to enter the hall, although they are peers, but the difference in treatment is very obvious.
When he got to the back, Zero fell asleep directly in a squat, and Noonardo took Zero to his room to rest.
Ziyan watched Noona cover Zero with more, and finally couldn't help asking.
"Hey, what's going on?"
Noona glanced at Ziyan more: "Go out and talk." β
Outside
"Didn't I tell you before, her parents ran away after leaving her and her brother, and the Dragonborn family, do you think there are still few people of the same generation as her parents? Not to mention her parents, it is her grandfather's generation, and there are still many peers, but her grandfather is more powerful, so the position of the head of the family is her grandfather's, so after her parents left, her status with her brother is not high. β
"I see...... I thought she and her brother were very important in your family. β
"Your 'thought' is half right, her brother, that is, Mo Yilie is indeed very status, he showed a talent far beyond his peers at a very young age, and became her grandfather's favorite grandson, of course, he also loves the house and Wu is very good to her, and when she grows up, Mo Yilie is expected to become the next generation of family heads, so, you are half right. β
"I see, it's ......" Ziyan sighed a little, it turned out to be a competitive system, or it was better to be yourself, just a disciple.
Having said that, Ziyan found that most of the people in the Dragonborn family had golden eyes, and some of them had scaly skin on their faces, which looked strange and scary.
"To be honest, I have a ...... Strange feeling, the people of the Dragonborn family are all good-looking and not ugly, but why...... What is it like?" Ziyan thought for a while: "Anyway, sometimes when my eyes meet, my heart trembles like I have hair, and it is very uncomfortable. β
"It's good to get used to it, I don't look like you Empire. Noonardo shook her blonde hair.
"You...... It's okay, their appearance is really hairy......"
The two chatted for a long time in the moonlight, and then dispersed to rest.
......
Next
Ziyan was woken up by a noisy crowd.
Ziyan put on his clothes and came outside the house, and saw a group of demon clans making noise in the courtyard in the corridor.
"Are you awake?" said Noonardo, standing in the doorway of the next room.
Ziyan pulled his long hair back: "What's wrong with them?"
"The juniors have a conflict, you must know that the demon family forces are very, very many branches, and they are very irritable in their genes, but they pretend to be elegant on the surface, and conflicts are very common. β
Ziyan looked at Noonardo: "More irritable than zero?"
"More grumpy than Zero when he's most grumpy, and Zero is calm most of the time. β
"Okay......" Ziyan pouted, it turned out to be a gene written in his bones.
"Actually, I hope you can get along with Zero a little more peacefully, Zero just looks very difficult to get along with, in the Demon Family, there are not many people who can devote themselves to learning martial arts, zero counts as one. β
"Do you mean that other demon families don't need to learn martial arts?"
"Most of them fight with primitive wildness, and a few of them are suppressing their nature to learn the etiquette and knowledge of normal people, which is also the disadvantage of the integration of the imperial vein and the wild beast. β
Ziyan nodded, I know.
In the courtyard, the demon family members who were divided into two sides seemed to be arguing more intensely.
I don't know who made the first move, but the battle suddenly began, and about twenty demon families were scuffling, while other demon families were watching from the side.
"You know what. Noonardo looked at the melee and said: "It's not allowed for them to fight like this, but the head of the family acquiesced to this happening, which side generally wins, and the status will be invisibly higher, like a group of beasts in human skin?"
Ziyan nodded: "Like." β
"But it is such a family that provides an extremely large combat power for the battlefield of the empire, but because it does not understand internal affairs, it ranks behind the Donglin family. β
Ziyan suddenly thought that there were four families in total: "By the way, what about the other two families?"
"There are two more, one is the Tiger and Leopard Sect, the other is the Iron Fist Sect, and now it is in a state of nominal and unreal, it is said that it is the four major families, but in fact, these two families are in a marginal state, which can be ignored, and there are only three who are really in power, the Li royal family, the winter ice clan, and the dragon descendant demon family, among which the Li royal family is a pure-blooded royal vein, and the winter ice clan is a branch of the imperial vein that once went north, and the dragon descendant demon clan is a royal daughter of their ancestors and a legendary humanoid divine beast, some people say that this divine beast has the blood of a dragon, so it is called the dragon descendant, and the name demon clan is givenγ β
"How do they determine if they have dragon blood?"
"Because the legend says that only dragons can transform into ten thousand shapes and give birth to ten thousand sons, you can probably understand that the dragon will become whatever it likes, and then breed with that species, and the offspring born will have dragon veins, and turning into human form just means that it is possible to have dragon blood. β
"I see, doesn't that Ao Fuling also have dragon veins?" Ziyan clapped his palms and said.
"It's possible, but it doesn't matter if it's there or not, as long as you can transform into a human form. Speaking of this, Noonardo suddenly understood something, and looked at Ziyan in surprise: "Do you want to try to create a new human race?"
"......" Ziyan coughed, thinking to himself that it seemed quite interesting? Wait, is it too early to think about it......
After a while, Zero also woke up, and ran to find her grandmother crying again, and Noonardo followed, but Ziyan didn't want to follow, so he left the Dragonborn Mansion.
Ziyan searched for the master for a few days, but he didn't find it.
Finally, after the five-day break, Ziyan returned to the academy, and met Noona and the two again, seeing that Zero had a bitter face, he asked about the situation, and after learning that General Eagle Dragon was dead, and Mo Yilie was alive and did not see anyone dead or a corpse, he could only persuade her not to be too sad.
Back to the pharmacist, the pharmacist checked Ziyan, and his body was basically fine, as long as he didn't need to smelt the flowers, as for the problem of smelting flowers, the pharmacist was already starting to find relevant information to study.
Class D
"Yo, why did you come back with this scrap?" said the student known as Brother Tiger sneered.
Ziyan glanced at him and didn't speak.
After class at noon, Ziyan was about to slip away, but was stopped by Brother Hu with three people.
"What do you mean?" Ziyan tried to break free, but Brother Hu's strength was much stronger than his own.
"What do you mean?" Brother Hu grabbed Ziyan's collar and threw him to the ground, Ziyan didn't wake up one, where was his opponent, and the four of them beat Ziyan in the classroom.
And when the people in the class saw it, they either left or watched.
Ziyan held his head, only to feel that his body was smashed by countless blunt objects, and he rolled in pain.
After a few minutes, several people finally stopped.
Brother Tiger sneered and looked at Ziyan: "Bastard, last time the teahouse dared to pretend in front of me, and I didn't inquire, my son of the Tiger and Leopard Sect can also be provoked?"
A Leopard: "That's it, I advise you to quit the academy quickly, otherwise you will be beaten once." β
Brother Tiger saw Ziyan lying motionless on the ground with his head in his hands, and his expression was slightly panicked: "Forget it, spare his life, let's go!"
......
A few minutes later, Ziyan saw through the gap between his arms that they were gone, so he tried to get up, but his body hurt terribly.
Damn it!
Ziyan gritted his teeth, and his eyes became terrifying.
I will slay him!!
Wolf: "You can't use the Smelting Flower, what can you do?"
Shut up! Without smelting flowers, I want them to die too!
I struggled to get up, there were few people in the class left, only two female students and one male student, and there was pity in their eyes, but in my opinion.
It's a shame!
Go back to the pharmacist.
"What's wrong with you?" the pharmacist couldn't help frowning when he saw Ziyan's blue nose and swollen face limping over.
"Nothing. Ziyan said lightly, as if it was normal.
β...... The medicine is hanging on the table over there, so drink it as soon as possible. After saying that, the pharmacist began to close his eyes and recuperate, most pharmacists have this habit, especially the pharmacists of the ghost level, who spend almost every day in closing their eyes and recuperating their minds.
Ziyan drank the medicine, then took a few pairs of herbs and mashed them, and made a dressing for himself.
The pharmacist heard the movement and looked at Ziyan: "You still do this, it seems that you have learned a lot." β
"I have been following a pharmacist for five or six years, but I have learned a lot. Ziyan replied without looking up.
The pharmacist closed his eyes and said, "It's not bad, walking outside, maybe you can save your life at a critical time." β
β......β
In the afternoon, Ziyan asked the teacher for leave and meditated with the pharmacist.
......
Class A in class
Mochen Xing was lying on the table, looking listless.
"Didn't you just go to look for Qin Hua at noon?, why did you wilt again?" Guan Tong looked at Mo Chenxing speechlessly.
"It's just so uncomfortable. Mochen Xing drew circles on the table with his fingers.
"......" Guan Tong looked ahead, a young man in gray-blue clothes and long black hair was lying on a chair with his feet on the table, completely looking like a hanger.
That's right, he is the swordsman who can resist the wind from Class D-Li Le (Yue) Ling, who replaced Qin Hua to fill the vacancy in this class.
In contrast, the two twin brothers are more serious, waiting for the teacher to come to class.
Class B
Qin Hua sat speechlessly in his place, surrounded by his classmates.
At the same time, he is also a fan of Qin paintings.
"Little princess, little princess, are you really the legendary blood clan?"
"Can you grow wings like that silver?"
"Can you fly?"
"Sucking human blood?"
β......β
For the first time, Qin Hua felt so uncomfortable being watched......
"What are you doing?!Get back to your seats!!" exclaimed the Mentor.
When the students heard this, they quickly slipped back to their seats.
Qin Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly vowed in his heart that he must return to Class A.
Class A
Dong Ningxue looked out the window, the sun was warm and sunny, and her purple eyes were cold.
New challenges are in front of me, whether it is Mochen Star or Li Leling, I will freeze them into ice cubes.
Class A
on the podium.
Silver held five sheets of paper summarizing the self-examination of the five people about the assessment competition: "Failure will not accompany us, next time, we will do better." β
Class A
The Phoenix Sisters have already begun to practice playing against each other.
......
Three months later
In the inner city of the imperial capital, a man in a leather coat is running on the clean stone pavement, and a small long cylinder is hanging from his waist.
Inside the main hall of the Royal Palace
The civil and military officials entered in four columns, two columns on the left and right, neat and orderly.
After the hundred officials were in place, behind the main hall, with the support of the slaves and maids, a woman wearing a robe with a golden luan tattoo walked up to the throne representing power.
At the moment when she sat down, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, except for several high-status kings and ministers, all knelt down and said in unison: "I wish Yilin Niangniang a long life, and the mother of the world." β
"Flat. The woman's lips moved slightly, and she said lightly.
"Xie Niangniang. All the civil and military officials got up.
The woman leaned slightly on the left armrest, leaned on the throne, and a pair of phoenix eyes glanced at the hundred officials: "What's the matter with Zhuqing?"
A minister stepped forward and bowed: "Qi Niangniang, according to the report from the southeast garrison, the barbarians have gathered tens of thousands of troops, completely cutting off our connection with the eastern frontier, and the minister thinks that Niangniang should send more troops to the south to eliminate the barbarian army." β
"Jiapai?" Niangniang sneered: "It's been a few months, and you can't make up an army that can save the king!
The last few words were already questioned sharply, and the hall was silent for a while.
Seeing this, Yi Lin restrained his tone: "How are the preparations of the Winter Lin family?"
An old man, but with a tall posture, stepped forward and said: "Qi Yu Niangniang, our Donglin family has always been mainly to assist the king's internal affairs, if we want to make up, we can only make up some ...... under the combat power."
Yi Lin frowned and waved his hand when he heard it: "Okay, okay, it's this sentence again, what about the Demon Family?"
A woman who looked to be in her forties stepped forward and said, "Qi Qi Niangniang, most of the main forces of our demon family are trapped with the king, and the only people who can be mobilized are the thousands of people stationed in Tianzhao City to defend against the barbarian army......"
Yi Lin was silent, now in the empire, there are only two groups of troops available, one is the thousands of elite demon cavalry troops stationed in Tianzhao City, and the other group is the Zhenbei army stationed in the north.
If the cavalry garrisoned in Tianzhao City was allowed to return, the barbarians would be able to rush straight to the imperial capital with impunity, and the Zhenbei army was too far away, and after the withdrawal, the enemies in the Far North would also pose a threat to the empire.
"Waste! It's all waste! The Manchu Dynasty can't even muster a decent army! What do you want? Ah?!!hh
The ministers all lowered their heads, but in fact, many people knew that how could a huge empire not have an army, but everyone was unwilling to consume the power they had cultivated over the years.
Especially the Dong Lin family, everyone knows that although the Dong Lin family is an internal affair, it has a lot of troops, and there are many southern dukes and lords who have people from the Dong Lin family, and the business of the Dong Lin family is everywhere, almost controlling more than half of the economic lifeline of the empire.
But so what? Exposing the Dong Lin family? Impossible, a mother who can only lose her temper, and a Dong Lin family who holds a lot of power, as long as they are not stupid, they all know whose team to stand on.
"Niangniang, in my opinion, it is also a good choice to gather the thousands of people from the academy to form a team in advance. "Dong Sening, the head of the Dong Lin family, said.
"Academy?ohβ" Yilin suddenly realized, almost forgetting that there were still people trained by the Royal Academy to use.
"Quick, give the order for the academy to prepare people!"
Seeing this, a minister stepped forward and said, "Niangniang, no, the talents of the academy have not yet been cultivated, so you must not do the thing of fishing with all your might!"
"Then what does Aiqing think?!" asked the mother.
"This ......" The minister bowed his head and was silent, he didn't dare to expose the fact that other people had stored soldiers and did not report it, let alone have soldiers to relieve his worries.
"That's enough, that's it! Retreat!" Yi Linyu waved his hand, and was about to get up and leave, when a soldier broke into the main hall.
"Who is it!!How dare you break into the main hall?"
The soldier ignored it, but took off the small long tube on his waist, walked to the front, and knelt down on one knee: "Niangniang! Tianzhao City is besieged by tens of thousands of barbarian troops, and the small one desperately escapes, asking for Niangniang's support!!" After speaking, the soldier lifted the small long tube.
One of the guards took the soldier's small barrel and gave it to Yilin.
Yilin opened the lid of the tube, and inside was a letter, and when he opened it, it was a distress letter written by the leader of the Demon Cavalry.
At this time, the woman standing at the front of the main hall, the current head of the demon family, softened her feet when she heard this, and fainted.
Yi Lin's hand holding the paper trembled slightly, and he sat on the throne uncontrollably: "God... I'm going to destroy my Dogs and Horses Empire......"
At this moment, the ministers are really panicked, the king is surrounded, and there are still troops on the front line that can resist, it's a big deal to change the master, but if the barbarians really fight from their own backyard, it will really not be good.
"Don't panic!" Dong Sening raised his hand to signal quiet: "Niangniang, I hope you will make me a general, I am willing to recruit troops, raise the strength of the whole clan, and go to the south to defend against the barbarians." β
When Yi Lin heard this, he raised his head: "Accurate!"
......
Winter is coming home.
"Big brother, are you confused?!What are you doing leaving the Imperial City??, such a great opportunity!" said a man who looked younger than Dong Senin.
"Fourth brother, you are really confused, what if the king comes back suddenly? You must know that the king has tens of thousands of elites around him, and he is surrounded, and he just thinks that breaking through the siege may cause more casualties, and hopes that we will send troops to attack the barbarians inside and outside, in fact, when the king has no food and grass, he will naturally break through and come back with people, and when the time comes, he will also ask us for the guilt, so we take the military power given by the mother, and we can summon the soldiers to the imperial capital openly, understand?"
"Ah, you're ready to seize power, it's too early, isn't it......"
