Chapter 9: A God-given Opportunity to Seize

October 2, 527 at 14:28 in the Magic Calendar

Xiang Risong took out his war horse and faced Hongying, who was still preparing in the room: "Today, let's ride to occupy Siwei, Hongying hurry up." ”

Hongying is now fourteen years old, and she is old enough to go up to Siwei. She was carrying a small bag made of bright brown cowhide, and the little pink bear was still hanging from the bag, and the fire mirror could fit right in the bag. She used two pearl headbands to comb her hair high above her ears.

"Didn't you let me ride a horse before?"

"Now that you're older, even if I don't let you ride now, you'll still have to learn equestrian skills when you get to the academy. Come on, let's give it a try. Xiang Himatsu lifted the red screen and put it on Rhona's horse.

"I'm a little nervous." Hongying clutched the reins.

"Don't be nervous. Rhona is very experienced. Xiang Sun loosened his horse and confirmed that Hongying was sitting firmly, before slowly clamping his legs to Rona, "Hongying, clamp Rona hard with her legs, and grip the saddle tightly with her hands. I'll let Rhona walk first, and you can feel it. ”

Lorna walked slowly and gracefully, and Hongying's nervous mood dissipated at once: "Wow! I felt as if I could. I could feel the rhythm of Rhona. ”

Xiang Risong tightened his grip on the reins: "Then I'm going to speed up slowly." ”

Rhona's speed suddenly became a lot faster, and Hongying excitedly shook her body with Rhona's pace. Gripping the saddle, he gradually relaxed, and then raised his hand to embrace the oncoming wind.

Hongying's actions frightened Xiang Risong, and he hurriedly used his body against Hongying, who was leaning back: "You can't do this next time, it's too dangerous!" "Rona was so sensible that she slowed down slowly.

Hongying raised her head and leaned on Xiang Risong's shoulder: "Can I also own a horse?" ”

"Be nice, hold on! I can consider picking a pony that suits you. ”

"I don't want a pony, I want a horse as handsome as Lorna."

"Sit down! I'll buy it for you. ”

Hongying chuckled: "Actually, I just said it casually, I still don't want it." ”

"Although the academy has horses for students, they are certainly not as good as the ones I picked for you."

"The academy has a horse, so I don't need you to buy it."

"I'll buy it for you."

"No, I really don't. I just said it casually. ”

"No, I said, I'll buy it for you."

"Brother! I'm going to be angry! ”

"Okay, okay, I see. Later, when you want it, I won't buy it for you. Although Xiang Risong said so, he had already thought about it, and he wanted to go to the royal family's horse farm to see if there was a war horse suitable for Hongying. He guessed that with Hongying's character, he would definitely have a wild war horse.

"Hey, hey." Hongying likes horses very much, but horses are too expensive.

In the process of struggling with whether to buy a horse and what to buy, they have reached the Occupy Siwei Academy of Magic.

The Occupy Siwei Academy of Magic is a castle that hides alone in the forest, far from the city. A tall stone wall covered with roses encloses the land of Siwei. A huge rusty iron door seemed to separate the two worlds.

"Here we are, and this is Juswei. We were coming along the southernmost part of the Central Highlands, passing a Rose Ridge on the way, did you see that? Xiang Himatsu rode Rona slowly, pointing to the mountain in the distance.

"I've heard of Man-Eating Rose Ridge, is this it?"

"That's right, this is it."

"I thought Rose Ridge was far to the north, so close to Occiland. Is that really a cannibal? ”

"That's why I want to warn you, don't go there, it's dangerous. Hear me? ”

"I hear you."

"Here we are. You sit down first, and I'll help you down later. Xiang Himatsu got off his horse and led Rona to knock on the iron door.

A small light-up sensor appeared on the iron door, and Xiang Risong took out his ID card from his chest and put it on the sensor, making a "Didi" sound. The iron door slowly opened through a crack.

Xiang Risong pushed open the iron door and led the horse into the Occupy Siwei Magic Academy.

Hongying looked back at the iron door and slowly closed on its own.

"Come, I'll help you down."

"Okay."

Hongying stroked Rhona and fell in love with the horse and the feeling of riding a horse.

As soon as you enter the gate, you can see the main building of Occupy Siwei, which looks much simpler than the castle where the royal family lived, which makes people feel very solemn. The stone bricks used to build the castle are all gray and yellow, and they look a little mysterious.

Hongying followed Xiang Risong into the main building from the main entrance next to the racetrack. They arrived at the time of the afternoon school day, and there weren't many people in the hallway.

"We went straight to the dean's lounge. He must have been there. ”

Hongying felt that she couldn't appreciate the paintings on the walls of the stairs, so she focused her attention on Xiang Himatsu's back.

Xiang Risong and Hongying climbed up to the ninth floor, quietly stopped and gasped: "Obviously, you can build the academy bigger, but if you have to build the floor so high, you are exhausted." ”

Himatsu pushed open the door to the dean's lounge without knocking.

The dean leaned back on the couch, a thick book was on his lap, and the glasses on the bridge of his nose were about to fall off, and after a while, the dean shivered: "Oops! You don't knock on the door and suddenly appear to scare me, an old man, to death! ”

Hongying felt that this old man was a little cute: "Haha, it was you who fell asleep and was startled." ”

The dean lifted his glasses and looked at Hongying: "Why is this little girl so rude like you?" Komatsu, what are you doing here? ”

Xiang Risong put his hand on Hongying's shoulder: "I recommend this little sister to you." ”

The dean picked up the book from his lap and put it on the coffee table in front of him: "Oops! Why don't you come earlier, it's all school. Whose child is this? ”

Xiang Risong smiled and said, "My family's." ”

"Yours? No, no, how old you are. Did you adopt? The dean shook his head with his glasses, "This can't work, this definitely won't work?" ”

Hongying pursed her mouth: "Because I'm a civilian?" ”

"Yes! Besides, the list of all students is decided by the council, and it is useless for us to have a deep friendship. ”

Xiang Risong walked up to the dean and chatted with him secretly. The dean's expression couldn't see anything, but Xiang Himatsu's expression was a little unpleasant.

Hongying looked at the dean who kept holding her glasses and didn't know what she was talking about, so she used magic to secretly break the leg of her glasses and let it hang honestly on the dean's ears.

The dean didn't notice, and was still discussing something with Xiang Risong with a serious expression.

Hongying sat bored on the soft sofa, looking at the bookcase full of magic books, she curiously flipped through the book on the coffee table twice.

The magic words jumped out of the paper, jumping little by little in front of Hongying's eyes. There are a few familiar words that make Hongying's eyes shine, "Flower of the Moon", "Flower of the Prairie" and "Flower of Freedom".

After the dean finished chatting with Xiang Risong, he turned around and saw Hongying flipping through "Persona", and became nervous: "What are you doing?" The dean took the book back from in front of Hongying.

Hongying looked at the dean strangely: "Grandpa, you also read this kind of storybook." The children born in Yeting Fang know this story. ”

"What did you say?"

"Although the names of the characters' treasures have changed, the story is still the same story! In order to gain the favor of the prince, a princess snatched three flowers from another princess that could enhance her beauty. The flower of the prairie makes the princess beautiful, the flower of freedom makes the princess brave, and the flower of the moon makes the princess good. Later, the princess did get the love of a prince. But the princess, who was robbed of her treasure, turned into an evil, ugly and cowardly crow, and could only survive by eating carrion. ”

"Ye Tingfang's civilian children know it?"

The dean was so surprised, it seems that this is really not just a story, right?

Hong Ying replied while thinking: "Yes, it's just a story, what's it?" It's just that what you write in this book is a little different. The moon flower should refer to the moon stone, and the moon stone can't directly make the princess kind, but it has to be made to bloom the moonlight flower. ”

"How do you know that the Moonlight Flower is also in the story you know?" The dean frowned, his eyes fixed on Hongying.

Suffered! I'm talking too much!

If these stories and secrets are true, then I don't have a bargaining chip with the dean?

Hongying didn't know that Moonlight Flower was not mentioned in "Persona", and she felt that if she admitted that she saw it from a stolen diary at this time, she would definitely let the dean know that she was a thief, and then hate herself even more, so she panicked: "I found a diary in the mountains, and it was written like this." ”

In fact, the diary was stolen from a warehouse of the royal family that had not been used for a long time, and Hong Ying saw that no one wanted to find this diary, so she simply did not put it back after reading it. Just put it under the roof of a nobleman.

The three flowers mentioned in Persona, the Flower of the Moon, the Flower of Freedom, and the Flower of the Prairie, are written in the diary: Flower of the Moonlight, God of Freedom, and God of the Prairie.

Of course, Hongying didn't plan to tell the dean about the others and play her hole cards.

"What about the diary?" The dean's eyes had completely revealed that he wanted to know how to plant the moon stone.

Hongying's face was full of grievances and sadness, and she secretly raised her eyes to look at Xiang Risong: "Brother, can't I go to occupy Siwei?" ”

Xiang Risong stood behind the dean and saw that Hongying must know something. The corners of his mouth rose slightly and reminded: "The dean's meaning is already very clear, we are neither nobles, nor do we have the permission of the council. We had to go back with secrets. ”

Hongying shook her head in disbelief: "Yes, this diary has long been accidentally burned, and no one will know the secrets written in it at all." She turned to leave.

"Wait! You guys...... You guys! ”
