Chapter 13: Parting with Wounds
In the early morning, under the ancient tree on the boundless edge of the back mountain, five people sat on the roots of the ancient tree outside the land, and Yu Yu was swinging on the rattan of the more ancient tree.
"Lu Fan, you are the limelight of the academy these days, and many people want to duel with you," Ning Lang said to Lu Fan, but anyone could hear the ridicule.
But it seems that the original sin who is the real cause of this incident is still swinging her swing as if he didn't hear it, which makes Lu Fan can't help but be angry.
"What am I afraid of when I have you to be the backstage for me, except for those old guys in the entire academy, who else can do anything to me?" Lu Fan said with a bit of a stinky fart
"That's not necessarily, the current academy is like a training machine for the empire, the students have a limited time to study and cultivate in the academy, and many of them don't have any actual combat power, but it doesn't mean that there are no outstanding people, as far as I know, there are a few students in the intermediate class whose strength is comparable to ours, you have to pay attention" The battle army said badly
"We're going to go out to practice soon, and they still have to study at the academy. It's okay! Lu Fan said indifferently
"Yes, when we return from training, it should also be time for us to participate in the Imperial Competition. ”
"After such a long period of competition, although we have made great progress, but after all, we have not exerted our full strength, and we cannot really grow without experiencing a desperate struggle and the baptism of cruel blood," Ning Lang said as a friend and brother who had been looking at him for several years.
"After coming back from this experience, the exchange between the nine colleges and universities of the empire was held in the imperial capital, and each college will recommend twenty students to the imperial capital to compete. Hua Kun, the news peddler, was talking about the gossip he got out of nowhere
"This time, I heard that this time the empire may have to 'exchange' with the academies of the surrounding empires, so I pay special attention to this competition, in fact, this is also a confrontation between empires, and at the same time, it is also an opportunity for various countries to show themselves!" said the war soldier proudly
"In the next few years, such exchanges may be more frequent, this time in the Great Shang Empire, and next time it may also be in the Yundu Empire Luoyun Empire... I hope that one day, I will be able to represent the Great Shang Empire and travel all over the surrounding empires!" said the war soldier.
"Well, we must get a good ranking in this competition, and it is best to communicate on behalf of the empire," Hua Kun said solemnly.
At this time, Ning Lang shook his head and said: "My family is the children of the hidden family of the empire, and I came to the academy just to study, and understanding this era will not cause the children of the family to be ignorant of the outside world, our family has more or less sent the children of the clan to study in the nine major academies of the empire, but we will not participate in the affairs of the empire, this is also the tacit understanding between our hidden family and the empire." ”
"The reason why our hermit family can span several dynasties is that we have our own principles, and at the same time, we can survive for a longer time with a low-key way of life, unless we get the permission of the empire, otherwise we will not intervene in the affairs of the empire, this is also the unspoken rule of the empire and our hermit family, this is a balance" Ning Lang explained to everyone
"Although I have guessed for a long time, I didn't expect you to really have such a big background, so we don't have to be afraid of anything in the future," Hua Kun said happily
"Our family's way of life is that before we have the ability to take over the family affairs, all personal actions have nothing to do with the family, the family will not bear any consequences for you, and everything is in the interests of the family. Ning Lang's words were without the slightest emotion
It is also a huge family, with an innumerable number of children, and only when the corresponding abilities are determined will the corresponding resources be mobilized for you.
"Isn't it true that you, as the children of the Hidden Great Family, don't you have any privileges?" Hua Kun's face was full of disbelief.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask Yu Yu, I think Yu Yu has the most right to speak," Ning Lang said.
"No, Yuyu, are you also a child of a hidden family? This world is too crazy. Hua Kun said exaggeratedly
"I'm not a child of a hidden family," Yu Yu said.
Hua Kun exaggeratedly patted his chest with his hand, as if he was really frightened by something.
"I'm an orphaned heir of the old dynasty, so my identity is more sensitive," Yu Yu said lightly.
"What! you're who... Wouldn't we be in danger too," Hua Kun said a little funny, but no one paid attention to him.
"The previous dynasty was overthrown by foreign enemies, and strictly speaking, the current imperial family, and the ancestors are also side branches of the imperial family of the old dynasty," said Zhanjun Zhengse
"Yes, so the dynasty also took care of the remnants of our previous dynasty. But it's also to guard against us, and even our fate is not in our hands," Yu Yu said sadly
Listening to their self-complaints, Lu Fan was silent, especially when he heard that Yuyu's life experience was that Lu Fan felt that the big family also had the misfortune and helplessness of the big family.
After all, as a big empire, all uneasy factors within the empire must be under control.
Originally, Lu Fan was very jealous of his family, thinking about what would happen if his life experience was known to them, and how they would feel if they knew their family background, would they alienate themselves or even denounce themselves.
It's just that after hearing their words, it seems that his life experience is no longer a shocking secret.
"We won't be allowed to participate in that imperial competition, I think there are many people in the Nine Academies who are in the same situation as us, so in the end, your chances of winning the final will be much greater, but your biggest opponent should be those noble children of the Royal Academy. After all, no matter when, when there is a backstage, there will be more ways than people without a backstage," Ning Lang said to Lu Fan
Seeing that Lu Fan heard his life experience and did not say anything, Lin Yuyu tilted his head and looked at him and did not say anything more.
······
Before I knew it, it was time to go out and practice.
The study in the academy has been put down, and even those who practice all day long and rarely see the academy all year round often appear in the academy.
A pair, a pair of people suddenly hugged each other, suddenly cried and laughed, and the couple ushered in the festival of breakup.
The sweet words on weekdays, the mountain alliance and the sea oath, have become indifferent on this day.
Before leaving, the leaders of the academy held a final mobilization meeting for the students who were about to go out for training! It's just that after being in the academy for so long, no one can listen to the speeches of the meeting.
The only thing that hasn't changed is that the dean's speech is still so long and so long, and it is as annoying as when he first entered the academy. But listening to the hearts of the students who are about to separate, it is a different feeling, and I can't help but feel emotional.
In the end, the dean, who had never met a few times, squeezed out a few reluctant tears and ended his career in the college!
On the eve of going out to practice, Yu Yu was told by the family, and the current empire is surging and the undercurrent is surging and wants him to return to the family to avoid being used by some people with bad intentions.
Before parting, Yuyu told Lu Fan that her surname was not Lin but Ji.
And the surname Ji is the national surname of the royal family of the previous dynasty!
Tell everyone that you must come to Yongzhou to see yourself in the future.
In the end, with tears in her eyes, she looked at everyone and said in the direction of Lu Fan, "You must come to see me." So she stepped on the crane with the people who had come to pick her up, and left.
Looking at the figure of Yu Yu leaving until it disappeared, everyone came back to their senses.
I saw a person standing behind Ning Lang, and at this time someone said, "Young Master, it's time to leave"
"Got it," Ning Lang shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly
"You know, it seems that it's not very peaceful outside, you have to be careful yourself, I have to go" After speaking, Ning Lang walked to the children of the family who had been picked up from other academies, and sat on the Earth Walking Beast together, and the Earth Walking Beast rolled up the dust and left.
Lu Fan looked at the other two brothers with red eyes and said, "Are you going to leave too?"
"We'll be back, and we'll be competing when we come back, and we're going to improve our cultivation as much as possible in this experience for our dreams. It is safe for us to be together, but it is not conducive to the improvement of our own cultivation, so when I want to experience an adventure alone, each of us should learn to face the unknown independently..." The soldier said hoarsely with red eyes
"Life is always divided and combined, don't you still want to travel through the mountains and rivers of this world, just think this is the first step for you to start" Hua Kun said in a choked voice, as if he was not saying it to Lu Fan but to himself
Lu Fan nodded, remembering a poem he saw in the Jing Pavilion: Xiao Xiao has a few leaves of wind and rain, and it is more bitter to be away from others.
The night was frightened, and the tears and lights fell. Everywhere is sad, light dust in Yuqin.
"Then let's go down the mountain" After speaking, Lu Fan was the first to rush down the mountain, leaving an afterimage and rolling dust in place
"The speed has improved again" After speaking, the battle army also chased after him, and only then did Hua Kun react, wiped his red eyes, and chased down with a smile.
