Chapter 163: Looking at each other and smiling
Over the next few days, a lot happened to the Tantai family.
On the second day after the completion of their task, the Council of Elders talked to Shentai Mingxiang and Shentai Mingjing respectively, and what they said was not known to them. But she knew that the Styx had once again rejected the question of the order of heirs, and had rejected the Elders' proposal to formally put him under his father's name.
Although the elders reprimanded him angrily for a long time, the Styx did not waver, because he knew that the reason why the elders looked at him differently now was that there was no proper heir to the family head.
Otherwise, there are so many illegitimate children of awakened space magic in the Seven Colors Shadow Team, why didn't they see the elders wooing them one by one, and those people couldn't even have the surname of a Tantai family.
The Council of Elders urgently contacted Yutai Hongqiang and reiterated the issue of the heir of the main lineage, believing that if his father offered to register his name, Tantai Styx would not refuse.
And Yutai Hongqiang said that if the Council of Elders can persuade the Tangtai Styx to be named, he will not object, but it is impossible for him to take the initiative to record an illegitimate child in his name. The Tantai family is in the Federation, and the face of the Wizards Association is still wanted.
Zhuge Cuiye got her husband's promise, but she just watched a series of actions of the elders coldly, sorting out the bags that Tantai Shenxiang and Tantai Mingxue were going to take away.
The National University of Magic, which he was admitted to, was a huge island on the sea, which was not marked on the charts and was obscured by a magical magnetic field all year round, which was explained by the professor as a sea ruin. If you want to go, you must take a special magic ship from the National University of Magic, otherwise you will be torn apart by many strange beasts in the sea before you reach the place.
And the magic ship will only come and go with the Federation when the school year is open and the holidays are closed. Originally, according to the wishes of the company, he wanted to be admitted to the National Defense Military University and lay a good foundation for joining the army in the future, but unfortunately he was not yet 25 years old. Neither the elders nor his father allowed him to make such a decision.
Zhuge Cuiye ordered to prepare some more magic weapons for the Shentai Underworld, and arranged for the adjuster of the magic guide to serve the Underworld for several days in a row, debugging the settings of the magic guide for him, as for other daily necessities or energy potions and other things, as long as there is money, they can be bought.
It was Shentai Shenxue, Zhuge Cuiye bought her a lot of clothes and accessories, if it wasn't for the solemn refusal of Mingxue. She really wanted to send two etiquette teachers to give Stygian Snow a good training. There is no woman in the family like Stygian Snow.
These are all the heads of the dark band. Thinking that the cute and obedient daughter who was a child has been trained by the Underworld since she awakened her magical ability, she has become more and more like a boy......
Zhuge Cuiye showed a terrible smile, and happily decided to let her husband cultivate some "father-son affection" with Mingxiang!
In the training room, he shivered. It's full of inflow, why didn't his mother come to save him today?
"Styx, are you resting?" Thinking of his wife's importance to his son, he took a sip of dry vinegar, thinking that the elders wanted to raise the River Styx to suppress the Styx. Took another sip of the spirits. "Son, you're still too weak, be a father to train you well, come here!"
He has been training intensively for three hours, and the magic power in his body has dried up and he can't release any magic. If the other party is not his father, he really doubts that the purpose of this training is to destroy him!
Although she was surprised by the Elders' silence on her, she didn't care at all about what they were going to do next. Her goal is to use the status of the Tantai family and her own strength to open up a broader world.
A hidden, run-down shop on the edge of the 1st arrondissement. Yutai Mingxue quietly walked into it with a strange bag on her back and saw the face behind the counter. The corners of his mouth twitched, "Your disguise is getting more and more excessive!" ”
"This is the edge of the city, and every time a strange beast breaks in, this is the first battlefield, and if it is too clean and tidy, it will look out of place." Dongfang Hanhua said expressionlessly, but the hideous scar on his face made people scary to look at.
Yutai Mingxue put the bag in his hand on the counter, "This is considered to pay off the favor!" ”
"Hmm!" Dongfang Hanhua nodded, and stuffed his bags into the cabinet behind him, which were all discarded magic guides that the Federal Magicians Association banned from being taken out, and he was not easy to get but couldn't bring them outside, only by using the space magic of the Tantai family through the Shenxue could he do it unknowingly.
"Thank you for that!" Shentai Mingxue said very sincerely, things are one yard at a time, if it weren't for Dongfang Hanhua's help, Shangguan Fengye would probably have grabbed her roots! Now, whether it is Shangguan Haohui's reminder or Dongfang Hanhua's help, she has paid it off!
Dongfang Hanhua frowned invisibly, he didn't think that it was a favor, it was just some emotional help given to the "same kind" in the same position. He's been caught up in the thick of it, just struggling to force some options, but the snow is still hidden behind the scenes.
But Dongfang Hanhua did not express jealousy of this, on the contrary, he hoped that the Shentai Dark Snow could be hidden for a longer time and would not be manipulated and used by those people. It seemed to give him purpose and confidence.
However, since Shentai Mingxue insisted on thinking so, he was a little nosy when he said more! But after thinking about it carefully, I think it's a natural thing, and he has the same character.
Dongfang Hanhua nodded slightly, "If necessary, you can contact me through the secret line." ”
"Good!" A trace of warmth flowed in her heart. Three years ago, Dongfang Hanhua saw her hidden identity "at a glance", but she concealed it, or as he claimed, but the other party didn't ask him and naturally wouldn't say much.
But what does this mean to the Shenxue of the Tai Tai, Dongfang Hanhua, who has become one of them, should know best. Once one day, he said his identity, Yutai Mingxue thought about it, and a smile appeared on her face, I am afraid that she would also be relieved to forgive.
"I heard that you seem to have made a name for yourself!" Although it was a teasing tone, there was no smile on Yutai's face.
"That's the force majeure factor." Dongfang Hanhua couldn't see a specific expression. But the lowered eyebrows and the slightly lowered corners of his mouth can show his helpless mood.
And Yutai Mingxue usually has a smile on his face. There is no difference in the eyes, Dongfang Hanhua basically has no superfluous expressions, if it is said that Yutai Mingxue uses rich expressions to try to integrate himself into it, Dongfang Hanhua is the person who can be seen at first sight in a group of people.
Although in terms of appearance, they have a common characteristic, that is, they are so ordinary that there is nothing eye-catching!
Of course, this refers to the state of Yutai Mingxue with glasses!
"Haha!" Yutai Mingxue laughed happily twice. "You are prone to getting into trouble, and in one word, it is [troubled]."
Dongfang Hanhua pursed his lips, which he couldn't deny. But it won't be pleasant, but when I think of a few friends I met in school, "What kind of identity you are in, what kind of responsibility you have." As a member of the First High School. I must abide by the assignments of my seniors and do my best to fulfill the trust of my peers, which cannot be shirked. ”
"What if the identity is revealed?" The smile on his face disappeared, and he glared at him very vigilantly.
"That's also something that can't be helped, at least I'm worthy of it." Dongfang Hanhua said unusually firmly.
Yutai Mingxue was speechless, and thought for a long time before saying, "I'll think about it." This was not simply perfunctory, and the tone was slightly heavy, and Yutai Mingxue pushed his glasses. After glancing at Dongfang Hanhua to show that she would really think about it seriously, she bowed her head slightly as a farewell. Turn away.
Three days later, Shentai Xue rejected her mother's proposal to send Zhuge Cuiye to her, and came to the train station alone with Shentai Styx. Now is obviously the peak of the school year, and a large number of ordinary college students are the main passenger flow in the bustling crowd.
Friends who are traveling with each other are chattering, and the air is filled with a cheerful youthful atmosphere. A small group of travelers gathered on the edge was slightly unusual, and ordinary people subconsciously avoided that area, even if there were still empty seats there, and this side was already overcrowded.
Although the tickets for the school season are not easy to buy, whether it is as a member of the Taitai family or as an A-class mercenary, you can get a reserved ticket!
Because of the last attack, this time my mother bought a high-end suspension train engraved with a large number of defensive magic arrays and a combat armed car, of course, it is still a first-class ticket, an independent box, and the best treatment of this train.
However, this is not the superiority and luxury of the children of the family, but the federal regulations that all magicians and magicians above the rank of "magician" must be separated from the carriages of ordinary people, so as to avoid unnecessary social fluctuations caused by conflicts.
She had studied the laws of the Federation in detail, and found that there were many small, inconspicuous supplementary rules that tried to avoid social fluctuations caused by the differences between magicians and ordinary people.
The alliance is better said that each of their countries has a unique faith, and each other is just an offensive and defensive alliance formed by uniting together. The empire is in a lot of trouble, almost every year there are magicians killing ordinary people, a large number of ordinary people parade in public, and even storm the magic school to attack the students, and the social form has become deformed and weird.
Sitting in the luxurious waiting room, Shentai Mingxue wore headphones and closed her eyes to recuperate, waiting for the time to check in and enter the station. Styx sat down beside Styx with two cups of coffee and whispered, "Sister Xue, I found an acquaintance!" ”
"Huh?" Yutai Styx opened her eyes and looked at the River Styx inquiringly. It's not surprising to meet an acquaintance at the station, but if it weren't too strange, Styx wouldn't have gone out of his way to tell her.
"It's Wu Weibei!" Yutai Styx frowned, "If it weren't for perceiving the line of sight, he wouldn't have been able to be found in the crowd at all." ”
"Is it deliberate?"
No, he was surprised and immediately turned away. I guess I didn't hide it after noticing me. But within seconds of him turning his head, I lost track of him. "Yutai Styx's face was full of defense, and sure enough, as Sister Styx said, this person has a big problem.
"Let's see!" Yutai Mingxue closed his eyes again when he was not interested, and he went to the third district, and it was not surprising that he ran into it, but as a resident of the third district, Wu Weibei was a little strange why the first district appeared in the early stage of school. But as long as the other party doesn't come to make trouble, it doesn't matter.
"Yes!" Styx showed an unexpected relaxation, leaning back comfortably in his chair, he had been caught by Qingying for a long time in the past few days, and he felt that the bones in his body were about to crumble.
Suddenly, a commotion made the noisy waiting room a little quiet, and only the man's stern warning could be heard.
The Styx cleverly used some means, shuttling through the crowd of onlookers like a fish swimming in the sea, and in a few moments, it dodged into the center.
I saw a middle-aged man wearing army green clothes and a "Waiting for Inspection" sign on his body, standing in front of Wu Weibie, "This is dangerous goods!" Dangerous goods are not allowed to enter the suspended train. ”
"But this sword is just a magic guide." Wu Wei's immature smile was aggrieved like a bun, "It can't cut people." ”
"Magicians carrying magic guides must enter the exclusive carriage." After confirming that Wu Weibei was indeed a "magician", the inspector changed his words and reminded very gently that the suspended magnetic train traveling in the dangerous wilderness may have been attacked by alien beasts, and the inspector, who is an internal personnel of the station, naturally knows that the so-called no casualties in the past hundred years of the Federation does not include magicians who ride the train.
"But I only bought a regular ticket!" Wu Weibei did not give up hope, and looked at the inspector with blank eyes.
"......" The conductor who heard this was dumbfounded, and looked at Wu Weibei's pitiful appearance, and suddenly felt a toothache.
According to the rules of the train, when a magician carries a magic guide to buy a suspended train, he must buy a special ticket, and if the special ticket is sold out, the station will coordinate to arrange such a magician in the staff car.
But people like Wu Weibi, who only find out the problem when they get to the waiting room, are not as easy to adjust as they imagined, and there are too many witnesses now.
"Why don't you see if there are any classmates you know to ride with," the conductor who had seen Wu Weibei's identity certificate quickly made a decision, "or you can only enter the special carriage and enjoy the station ticket!" ”
"Okay." Wu Weibei nodded helplessly, "Just stand for the ticket." ”
"He's my classmate, he can make a carriage with us." Styx suddenly stood up and handed the ticket to the inspector, "Please open a ticket for him in a separate compartment." ”
"Styx-san......" Seeing the unexpected person appear, Wu Weibei blushed with shame, and only screamed submissively, not knowing what to say. (To be continued.) )
