Monday, Lingzicheng Railway Station.

It took a lot of effort for Mu Yun to squeeze through the security checkpoint.

This is all thanks to the fact that he is fully armed: a large school bag on his back, a huge suitcase in his right hand full of his clothes from summer to winter, and a plastic bucket in his left hand containing slippers, a drying rack, and toiletries. On his shoulder was a snakeskin bag with pillows and bedding.

And Qu Ruolan only dragged a suitcase, which was simple and capable.

Compared with others, Mu Yun feels like a farmer who goes to the city to work.

Qu Ruolan was also taken aback by Mu Yun's big bag formation, and then helped to share a little.

Mu Yun was very embarrassed, "Big guy don't need to bother, I can do it myself." ”

"It's okay, I'll help you. Qu Ruolan said, and then said: "From now on, we are alumni, you can just call me senior brother." ”

Mu Yun nodded: "Okay big guy!"

When he arrived at the automatic ticket gate, Qu Ruolan handed him a small ticket: "Come, this is your ticket, we are the train at 11 o'clock." ”

"Thank you. Mu Yun took the ticket with difficulty.

Mu Yun had seen red train tickets and blue high-speed rail tickets before, but what he was holding now was a pure black ticket.

The texture is also solid, with gilded lettering on it, which is shining in the light, and it looks more like a black credit card symbolizing prestige than a ticket.

At this time, the people in line behind him urged, and Mu Yun didn't have time to take a closer look, so he hurriedly put the card into the ticket machine and walked over.

In the waiting hall, there were a few people sitting sparsely, and some people simply fell asleep on a few chairs.

As a small county town on the 18th line, the railway station is also small and old, and it is not good. And it's a high-speed rail that just opened last year.

On the display on the wall, all the train information sheets for today are displayed, and there are only a few lonely trains on it.

Mu Yun glanced up at the screen, and then frowned: "Hey, no, isn't our car arriving at 11 o'clock? It's already half past 10 now, why does it show that the nearest train will arrive in three hours?"

Qu Ruolan explained: "The car we took was a special train, and all the stations were temporary, so it would not appear in the normal timetable. But don't worry, when the time comes, the train will definitely come. ”

Hearing this, Mu Yun nodded and found a seat to sit down.

"I'll just say, how can we have a train directly to Beijing in a broken county like ours, it must be specially dispatched. As he spoke, he took out the ticket from his pocket, and he didn't have time to look at it carefully, but now he had to appreciate such a high-end ticket.

"I'll look at the terminal...... Huh, why isn't it Beijing??? "Mu Yun was dumbfounded," ...... What kind of place is this?"

Qu Ruolan said: "If we don't go to Beijing, there are many different campuses of the National Defense University of China." In addition to the well-known three campuses of Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, there is actually another unknown campus, that is the Loulan campus. ”

"Loulan...... Campus: It can't be the Loulan I thought it was, right?"

"That's right, exactly what you think. Qu Ruolan said with a smile, "Our school is on the edge of the ancient city of Loulan. ”

Is it really the famous ancient city of Loulan?

No, what the hell is the ancient city of Loulan!

Mu Yun's mentality collapsed, he always thought that he was going to Beijing, and he excitedly said that he was going to Beijing to go to school.

He also made a detailed travel plan, ready to go to Beijing first, to visit the Forbidden City, then the Summer Palace, the Old Summer Palace, of course, and the Great Wall of China, and to eat all over Nanluoguxiang, and then to Sanlitun, Wangfujing and other commercial streets to feel the prosperity of the capital.

As a result, did you want to go to the Great Northwest?

Loulan, a small country on the ancient Silk Road, was founded before 176 B.C., but suddenly and mysteriously disappeared in 630 A.D., leaving only a ruin remains.

In other words, isn't the place in Loulan a desert except for broken walls?

I didn't even buy a computer, and I thought that I would wait until I entered the big city to buy it, and now it's okay, and even whether there is an Internet there has become a problem.

"Why is our school in that kind of place?" asked Mu Yun with a sad face.

"Next to the ancient city of Loulan discovered by Sven Heding, there are actually other ruins. When these ancient city ruins were discovered, the half-demons at that time immediately found that the concentration of demon qi near Loulan was abnormally high, and secondly, the surroundings of Loulan were already deserted, which was very suitable for half-demons to cultivate. Qu Ruolan explained, "So they established a half-demon school on the ruins of one of the ancient cities, which was also called the 'School City', and later the 'School City' was transformed into the Loulan Campus of the National Defense University of China." ”

Mu Yun nodded and interrupted: "Okay, I understand, the question I am concerned about now is actually whether the school city can access the Internet, can I play with the computer, and is there any other entertainment activity on weekends besides feeling the sandstorm in the northwest???

"Of course, it's a bit out of the middle of nowhere, but life there is much more convenient than you think. Qu Ruolan said with a smile, "The reason why the school city is called 'city' is not only because it is built on the basis of the ruins of the ancient city, but also because it is a miniature city itself." There are all kinds of living facilities in the school city, such as post offices, supermarkets, and cinemas in various towns, as well as squares and artificial lakes in parks. The transportation is also very convenient, and you can take the plane or high-speed rail to and from the surrounding cities freely. All in all, you imagine what a university looks like, and the school city has it all. ”

After hearing these words, Mu Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew before that next to Loulan was Lop Nur, China's second largest inland lake, called "Youze" in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", known as the "ear of the earth" because of its shape like a human ear, and later the lake dried up completely, and was also called the "Sea of Death".

Lop Nur has conducted many nuclear tests, among which one of the military bases for the development of the "two bombs", the Malan base of the National Nuclear Test Research Center, is in Lop Nur.

He has a child from the family next door who works in the Malan base, where he lives all the year round, and according to what he said when he returned home, the Malan base is a small town with all kinds of living facilities.

It seems that the school city is also a place similar to the Malan base.

Wait, isn't that a military base?!

If you think about it carefully, the essence of the school city is a base set up specifically for cultivating half-demons, right? And in that kind of place, you can't even find it on the satellite map, no matter how you look at it, it can only be a military base!

It's over, isn't that the legendary militarized management, shouldn't it be the devil training waiting for you every day in the future?

Who said a few days ago that he was going to school instead of going to war?

Mu Yun now feels like his face is swollen...... You shouldn't have flagged in the first place!

Just when Mu Yun's mentality exploded, Qu Ruolan said: "Our train is about to arrive." ”

Hearing this, Mu Yun raised his head, and suddenly found that on the timetable in the waiting hall, a new line of train information had been refreshed at some point:

"Train Z001, checking tickets. ”
