"Sister Cheng Ying is about to get up, otherwise she will be late for a while, today is the first day to go to class, I don't want to be hated." ”

Before dawn, Ling Xue was shouting in the house, yesterday the seven people were also arranged in the dormitory of the college after being assigned to different branches, but Cheng Ying said that she was not suitable for that kind of noisy place, so she applied to live alone.

Because it was a student led by Bai Li himself, coupled with the extremely high talent shown during the spirit measurement, the academy management could only acquiesce to this girl with an unlimited future, but Ling Xue was obviously afraid of living in a strange environment, so she was tired of living with Cheng Ying.

Cheng Ying was a little resistant at first, but when she thought that she could find out about some of the situation of Sword Shadow over the years, she finally chose to compromise.

So, they stayed in a restaurant near the college.

"Miss, there is still a period of time, please raise your noble hand and let me sleep for a while..."

"Oh, why don't we sleep together?" After being stunned for a long time, Ling Xue looked at Cheng Ying who put the pillow over her ear and said.

"No, I won't sleep well if you're next to me, and if you're together, don't sleep. ”

"Actually, I'm not as good as you say..."Scratching her head, Ling Xue looked a little twisted.

"I didn't compliment you!"

Being tossed by Ling Xue like this, Cheng Ying was completely sleepy, got up and shook her head and complained, "It's all your fault, I can't sleep now if I want to." ”

"Oh, yes?"

The white little face was slightly red, and there was a hint of expectation in the big eyes of the water spirit, but for Cheng Ying's blame, Ling Xue seemed to have received excellent praise.

Seeing this situation, Cheng Ying, who was helpless, shook her head and said, "I was really defeated by you, where did you talk yesterday, continue to continue..."

"Hehe, Sister Cheng Ying, do you like Brother Sword Shadow, think about it carefully, you two are quite a good match, sometimes cold, sometimes approachable, no, you shouldn't have seen him, right?"

"Hey, I'm going to like him?!"

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Ying pursed her lips and sneered, she originally wanted to say something more, she smiled stiffly after seeing Ling Xue's surprised appearance, and said, "Don't be funny, how could I like a person who has never known anything, I just feel a little curious..."

............

The time for chatting always passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was already dawn, and the two of them had eaten something in the restaurant casually and walked towards the academy.

In the early morning, the ice city was a little cold, only a few vendors yawning and waiting for buyers, the clothes they wore seemed to have been washed many times, and had long since lost their original color, and gradually began to turn white.

Maybe they were too sleepy, they drooped their heads, and they didn't even have the strength to shout.

Looking at these vendors, Ling Xue couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "It seems that even in prosperous places, there are still people who are forced by life to live at the bottom. ”

Although I feel sympathy but I can't do anything about it, this is the reality.

The two of them soon entered the academy, at this time, Wang Shuang and the others and the tutors of each branch had been waiting outside the door for a long time, looking at the several tutors in front of them, the two of them looked a little surprised and said, "Teacher, what are you doing here?"

After all the members arrived, Bai Li made a wink, signaling that time was pressing and talking as he walked.

"A few of us discussed, because there are only six of you newcomers this year, and most of the students in the academy have been assigned to different areas to carry out tasks, although there are still some people, but most of them are residents of the city, and they only come here every day, in view of your understanding of spiritual cultivators is still too vague, and there are many good partners among you, so that you will not be distracted by thinking about your companions during your practice, so we decided to set up a special group with the seven of you. ”

Just as Bai Li was telling the reason, Ling Xue, who was tired of walking, bent down and rubbed her sore calves, and whispered, "Why do you always feel that Teacher Bai Li is so complicated..."

"yes, just say that the seven of us are a group, why do you want to say so many irrelevant things. ”

"I seem to have seen a dim future. ”

Listening to the discussion of a group of "little adults" behind him, looking at Bai Li's increasingly gloomy face, several mentors next to him forced a smile, but fortunately, the distance was not so far, and soon after, several people stopped in front of a house.

The house occupies a small area, probably only about 30 people, and compared to other branches, it looks much older.

Pouting, Ling Xue said with an unhappy face, "Why are you here uh, it's not magnificent at all..."

I wanted to continue to belittle, but after seeing the cold glint in Bai Li's eyes, she swallowed the words in her throat back into her stomach.

Pushing open the door, a pungent cloud of dust hits me, and it is clear that no one has cleaned it for a long time.

"Hmm... It seems that it is necessary to clean up. ”

Facing the dust in the sky, Bai Li covered his mouth and nose.

"Anyone can see that. ”

"Yes, it's really talented, and since you've even discovered that it's time to clean it, I'll leave the cleaning task to you. ”

"We'll be back in an hour to check, but don't be lazy. ”

Ignoring the contemptuous gazes of the seven children, Bai Li waved his hand and walked out with several mentors.

Looking at the distant figures of the tutors, Ling Xue kicked down the stool on the side and complained, "How can it be cleaned up in an hour." ”

Although the environment was so dirty and messy that it made people feel irritated, Wang Shuang was still very optimistic and helped the stool up, and said, "Anyway, let's clean up first, after all, the seven of us will have to study here in the future." ”

No matter what the rest of the people felt in their hearts, they could only clean the house first, Xuan Xin nodded and began to get busy.

"Ling Xue, don't be lazy, follow me to fetch water!"

Looking at Ling Xue, who was tiptoeing to slip away, Cheng Ying shouted.

"Who, who said I was lazy, I just wanted to open the window. ”

"But you're walking through the door..."

"Okay, okay, it's a big deal to go with you. ”

Walking out of the house, Ling Xue leaned against Cheng Ying and asked, "Sister Cheng Ying, is this house of any special significance, just now I saw Teacher Bai Li and they seem to regard this place as a very sacred place." ”

"Actually, I don't know much, but it is said that this is the first house built by the founder of the Snow Country when he founded the Seifuryin Temple. ”

"No, if that's the case, then why didn't anyone clean it?"

"Well, I don't know, maybe there's some reason why you can't be touched. ”

"Then why should we do it?"

"I don't know about this either, so if I have time, I can just ask the teacher if they can't. ”

"Oh..."

Inside the house, the boys who rolled up their sleeves were already ready, but because there was no water, they could only wait anxiously.

"This is the water you fought?!"

After a long time, seeing Ling Xue who came back from fetching water, Wu Guang's eyes widened, and his face was incredulous.

"Of course I am, am I amazing?!"

The conversation between the two quickly reached the ears of the others, and everyone gathered here, but when they saw the water that Ling Xue had fetched, they couldn't help but darken their faces.

The water tool used by Ling Xue was actually an inkstone that had been stored here just now!

Everyone looked at Ling Xue speechlessly, and Ling Xue put on a high-spirited posture as if she was showing off her brilliant achievements, and the atmosphere froze in an instant.

"Don't be surprised, everyone, she is afraid that the clean-up work will be too boring, so she wants to liven up the atmosphere..."Although she didn't have much hope for Ling Xue in her heart, Wang Shuang didn't expect her to be so unreliable, so she hurriedly laughed and came out to play the round.

"Ling Xue, I told you that you can't use that, you still ......"

Hearing the sound, I saw Cheng Ying carrying a big wooden barrel and staggering towards the house, when she saw everyone's displeasured looks, she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with everyone?"

Seeing Cheng Ying panting, Xuan Xin walked up to her and took over the hand, and said, "It's really embarrassing for you to do this kind of physical work, you can rest for a while, and then leave it to us." ”

"What, I'm tired too, why don't you let me rest for a while?"

Seeing that everyone was surrounding Cheng Ying, Ling Xue was extremely dissatisfied.

"I know that everyone's abilities are different, but if you had the heart, you wouldn't do something like this, and if you want to be joking, please find a suitable time. ”

"Don't blame her anymore, maybe it's her first time cleaning, and if so, she's doing her best. ”

"I didn't mean that, I just thought... Hey, that's it, I don't know what to say about this kind of person, let's hurry up and clean the room, after all, we don't have so much time to waste on this kind of person. ”

"What kind of person is this, how can you treat me like this? Well, since you don't want to see me, then I can't go, I'm really fed up!"

Ling Xue, who was unbearable, turned around and ran, but on the other hand, several people were still busy with their own work, and they had no intention of retaining.

Seeing all this happen, Wang Shuang was powerless to stop it, he pursed his lips as if he wanted to say something, but he wanted to say something and stopped, so he had to silently wipe the dusty tables and chairs.

Cheng Ying didn't expect things to develop like this, and while lamenting that Ling Xue was ignorant, she also glanced at everyone with a little apology, and chased out.

In a house in the distance, several tutors were leisurely drinking tea there, and they could clearly see what the children were doing outside the window, when everyone saw Ling Xue with a look of grievance and tears in her eyes, and Cheng Ying who was anxiously shouting and chasing, they couldn't help but shake their heads.

I don't know how long she ran, Ling Xue finally stopped beside a locust tree, she looked far behind her but didn't see a figure coming, the anger in her heart also turned into grievances, squatting under the tree and sobbing softly, from time to time to ......

"I hate you guys, woo... Brother Wang Shuang and Sister Cheng Ying didn't come with me, did the two of them hate me too? How can this be, it's not like I didn't do anything, why do everyone blame me, woo...... Dad, Mom, Cher really wants to go home, I hate everything here..."

"Why don't you say you can leave, everyone is still waiting for you. Looking at Ling Xue, who was crying alone with her head bowed, Cheng Ying ran quickly to her side.

Suddenly hearing Cheng Ying's voice, Ling Xue raised her head with a happy face, but soon stubbornly pulled her face and said, "Hmph, everyone doesn't like me, why don't you leave?!"

Ling Xue's performance was fully watched by Cheng Ying, but she still coaxed Ling Xue happily with a reluctant expression, "Don't be angry, you still cry your nose, if you cry often, it will become ugly." ”

"Whoever cried, blamed so much dust in that room, and it was all in my eyes. ”

Hearing that Ling Xue still had the heart to quibble, Cheng Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a puzzled face, "Huh, no, why didn't you get lost when you were in the house just now, but when you came out, you were confused with your eyes..."

After that, he glanced at Ling Xue, thought about it and added, "Yes, yes, I forgot about me, I must have been fascinated by the sand dust blown up by Cheng when I ran out!"

Ling Xue, who was originally a little embarrassed, hurriedly echoed after hearing Cheng Ying's words, "That's it, it's the gust of wind just now..."

The words stopped abruptly halfway, facing Cheng Ying with a cunning face, Ling Xue realized that she had been tricked, and suddenly, she found that she was very afraid of the loneliness just now, so she hugged Cheng Ying and cried softly.

Gently patting her back, Cheng Ying didn't make a sound, but couldn't help but sigh in her heart, "Tears, it's really a magical thing..."

After a long time, Ling Xue stopped her tears, she gently pushed Cheng Ying away, looking at her gentle smile, her pretty face couldn't help but flush, and she couldn't help but think in her heart, "I'm ashamed, I thought it was my mother just now..."

"Xue'er, are you feeling unwell, do you have a cold?"

Facing Ling Xue, whose face was flushed, Cheng Ying couldn't help but care.

"Nothing, nothing... Sister Cheng Ying, why were you so angry just now?"

Thinking of Wu Guang's previous words, Ling Xue's mood became very low.

Blowing the cobwebs scattered on her head, Cheng Ying said, "So, can you really only draw so much water?"

"I'm definitely not as powerful as Sister Cheng Ying, I can carry a big bucket of water with the help of the power of aura..."

Hearing the rebuttal, the voice was as thin as a mosquito, and Ling Xue, who looked gloomy, looked very aggrieved.

"You see, in fact, the problem is here, you feel that you have not mastered the use of Reiki, and you can't pick up such a large bucket of water with your own strength, so you give up without trying, but I didn't use Reiki, just use your own physical strength. ”

"Why don't you use aura, it's so heavy, you must be exhausted. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Ying didn't feel strange, but patiently explained, "Ling Xue, do you know which wild fruits you can eat and which wild fruits are harmful to your body?"

"Hmm... I don't know, my mother used to cook for me at home, and I was also taken care of by Brother Jianying outside, so I haven't been exposed to this. ”

After receiving Ling Xue's answer, Cheng Ying's expression froze, and her face gradually became gloomy.

"What if one day, they're all gone?"

"Huh?"

"I'm asking you, what are you going to do if one day all the people around you who can protect you leave you?!"

At the end of the words, Cheng Ying's tone became extremely stern, making Ling Xue stunned for a moment.

Although she was very scared, Ling Xue still sneered and said, "How is it possible, Sister Cheng Ying, you..."

As she spoke, Ling Xue seemed to understand the meaning of Cheng Ying's words, and her last voice became inaudible.

Realizing that he had acted a little too aggressively just now, and when he calmed down, Cheng Ying continued, "If one day, your parents are gone, and the people who can protect you are gone, but you yourself have no ability to survive at all, then, how do you survive?"

"If you continue to be like this, you can't just survive with people who can take care of you and protect you. ”

"Because in this world, maybe one day, these people who can be relied on by you may disappear quietly..."

Cheng Ying's tone became very gentle, but it was difficult to hide the sadness.

"Okay, let's play with you, don't take it seriously, let's go back!"

Seeing Ling Xue, who had become sad due to her emotional infection, Cheng Ying suddenly grimaced.

"But I made everyone angry just now, and everyone probably hates me, I..."

"But why are they angry?"

"Yes, I didn't fetch water properly and made them angry..."

"Well, yes, then let me ask you, it's obvious that you didn't fetch water properly, and it has nothing to do with them at all, even if the teacher and they see that the house is not cleaned for a while, they can put all the blame on you, but why should they punish themselves with your fault?"

Cheng Ying's words made Ling Xue fall into deep thought, she thought for a long time before she muttered, "Punishing oneself without fault with the mistakes made by irrelevant people proves that the reason why they are angry is only because they are disappointed in me, yes, it must be like this!"

Gradually, a bright light burst out of Ling Xue's gloomy eyes, just like a lost lamb finding its way home.

"Then why are you still stunned, why don't you hurry back. ”

"Wait for me..."
