The Flame of All Things Chapter 1 – Arrival

The University of Gussuri is located in a deep and deep area in the east, and although the cities in the west are objectively not as developed as the eastern coastal areas, some hidden depths are actually prosperous. The college is located in the central hinterland of the country, which guarantees both secrecy and transportation. When the plane reaches the nearest city, it is time to use the train to move forward, and the train shuttles through the forested plains before disappearing.

"Students don't spend a lot of time in the academy, and you'll understand when you get there. Mr. Qian said

The train was going directly to the academy, the crystal chandelier on it was bright, and the leather sofa under the buttocks was very comfortable and soft, and Gu Xiaobei was about to be embedded in it. He had to sigh that this school is really rich, and there is a special rail transit station in the college, although the train sequence cannot be found, Mr. Qian said that most of the activities of the college are highly confidential and protected by the military.

"With so many students, won't the news get out?" Gu Xiaobei asked

He had never heard anything from the outside world about magical powers, wizards, or ghosts. Of course, there have been ghosts and ghosts in Journey to the West, but that can't be compared with this.

"There are many ways to keep students confidential, but more often than not, students at Gusuri University are self-conscious, and they have to face things that are unimaginable to ordinary people, and the outside world knows that it will cause panic. ”

"Do they know?" Gu Xiaobei pointed to the back, a series of carriages carrying many freshmen.

"I don't know. ”

"Why do you think that the teacher is opening a small stove for me. ”

"Don't think too much about it, I'll say these things to everyone. Mr. Qian stood up and walked out.

"Isn't it annoying?" Gu Xiaobei muttered secretly.

The first time Gu Xiaobei saw Mr. Qian was in the hotel incident, Mr. Qian was domineering and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the ghost, at that time he felt that Mr. Qian was simply a Yamazaki Ryuji who came out of the King of Fighters, with the atmosphere of the underworld. But another day, he is in a suit and leather shoes, his hair is combed and shiny, and his face is serious, incarnated as the young president of the company played by the protagonist in the TV series.

He really wanted to talk to someone, all the freshmen on this train, the round-faced brother with glasses was not there, no one could introduce him to what was fun, what precautions there were. When he passed by other carriages, he also secretly glanced a few times and found that there were everyone, whether it was a blonde foreign chick or a Middle Eastern guy with dark eyes and a high nose...... It is really a Sino-foreign joint venture, which is perfectly in line with international standards. Could it be that the whole world knows that there is a charm here? Isn't it a thing of local mythology?

While I was thinking about it, a cute head with two ponytails came into the room. Gu Qianqian was originally far away from his car, and he didn't bother to say hello. Although the uncle and aunt repeatedly told "Xiaobei, take care of your sister more outside". But Gu Xiaobei didn't think that this cousin needed to be taken care of at all, he felt that her personality was not very good, but it was definitely better than him.

"Old mother, what are you doing? Gu Qianqian leaned back on the sofa opposite, a pair of slender legs on the table, looking old-fashioned.

"Who has smelly feet, so smelly, so smelly?" Gu Xiaobei covered his nose and looked disgusted

"Hehe, stinky, I'm here to smoke you. As he spoke, he stretched his feet forward.

Gu Xiaobei felt that this cousin was really hopeless, if no one he knew looked at her, he would definitely think that she was the kind of girl who was innocent and cute. But Gu Xiaobei knew that this guy must be sloppy in the room on weekdays, and dressing as an immortal outside would not change his impression. Obviously the same age, Gu Xiaobei felt that his heart was old, and his cousin really didn't look big.

Of course, in front of outsiders, she is a lively and innocent girl.

Someone passed through the corridor of the workshop, her feet were lowered again, and she turned her face sideways to look out the window, full of ladylike appearance.

"Old mother, do you know that there are a lot of beautiful young ladies on this trip, all kinds of things. Gu Qianqian looked like she was abducting a child

"Yes. Gu Xiaobei said

"Do you want me to ask for your contact information?" she smiled

"I don't want to. Before she could finish speaking, Gu Xiaobei interrupted her in advance.

"It's boring! I'll be single for the rest of my life."

The train passed through the tunnel, and darkness shrouded it, and little by little, the train approached its destination with the regular sound of the rails shaking.

When you come out of the forest, you can see the blue sky and white clouds again, the winding road is on the side, and the train is driving into a circular building that stretches as far as the eye can see. Gu Xiaobei couldn't estimate how big this building was, and the train actually ran into it like a tributary of a small stream flowing into the sea. Mr. Qian said that it was not far from the city where he got off the plane, but they still felt that it had been a long time.

Some students secretly wrote down the time on their wristbands and the time on their phones. But the miraculous thing is that when you arrive at your destination, it only takes three minutes for both to be displayed! A high-end mechanical watch made of precision gears cannot be fooled, and a student screamed in the workshop.

This academy is too mysterious to them, and some students understand some of the mysteries under the inheritance of their parents, but such people only sit quietly in a corner, do what they have to do, and do not go around preaching. Only those who shout about discovering secrets will shout everywhere.

Gu Xiaobei originally thought that there were a lot of students from City A, but so far, he had not found a single person he met at the Camellia Hotel that day. Thinking about it like this, he remembered that he also had a companion classmate, Xu Xinyi, who was also in the queue that time. He thinks he's just like her, a miserable person. But in fact, Xu Xinyi's family is a rich girl who is alive and well, what do you want, why do you say the miserable words?

The freshmen swarmed away under the guidance of the staff, and it was no different from the opening of other universities. Gu Xiaobei sat in a public chair, looking at his mobile phone, at that time, the round-faced senior brother said that Gu Xiaobei promised to wait for him at the station, and he came to pick up people.

But half an hour has passed since the appointed time, and there is almost no one in sight in the subway station, and I haven't seen Ji Yuanyuan's conspicuous figure.

After another while, it wasn't until Gu Xiaobei couldn't help but doze off that a certain fat man appeared in front of him carrying a bag of hamburgers and fries and biting a glass of Coke in his mouth.

"Senior brother, I'm here to pick you up. Ji Yuanyuan wanted to give a one-handed hug, but Gu Xiaobei avoided him.

"Take me to school, brother. He said helplessly

"Senior brother, don't be angry, I also had an emergency, so I was delayed on the way. He said that, but he was still munching on a hamburger as he spoke.

"Oh, by the way, can you eat?" Senior Brother Ji took out a hamburger and put it in front of Gu Xiaobei, who hurriedly declined.

"It's okay, I'm good talking. ”

"Hehe, righteousness, I'll invite you to dinner when I turn around. Ji Yuanyuan couldn't help but say and put his arm around Gu Xiaobei's shoulder.

The University of Gusuri is very large, and it is almost a small city to be exact, and the university itself is located in this city. Gu Xiaobei and the others came out of the subway station and took a bus directly to the school, sightseeing the scenery all the way.

Compared to City A, it is much more prosperous here.
