Drip!

With the green light on the reader, a scene like a primeval forest came to the surface in an instant, making Yan Hua stunned in place.

"Let's go."

Chen Shui put away his documents and walked out first.

Yan Hua hurriedly followed, looking at the surrounding forest that was so dense that it covered the entire sky, and asked, "Is this the back mountain of Cambrian Academy?" ”

Chen Shuitou said without replying: "Well, that's right, most of the teachers in Cambrian live here. ”

When Yan Hua heard this, he immediately looked left and right, but unfortunately found that except for the fairly wide path under his feet, there were some signs of human activity, and the rest of the surroundings were occupied by lush vegetation, leaving no gaps.

Chen Shui seemed to know what Yan Hua was thinking, and explained: "Well, this place is actually the outer edge of the Endless Forest, in order to monitor the movements of those strange beasts at all times, all of our residences are scattered separately, and some proper camouflage has been carried out, it is difficult to be found just by appearance." ”

Yan Hua nodded, and then asked, "Then teacher, is your dormitory also here?" ”

Chen Shui replied: "Well, my dormitory is indeed here, but because I have been out in the field before, I haven't spent much time in the college, so I have lived a little more this year."

In addition, there are some teachers who are not responsible for teaching tasks or scientific research projects in the academy, which can be regarded as another layer of insurance.

For example, the Feng Lingchen you know belongs to the personnel who are stationed here, and are responsible for monitoring the anomalies of an active volcano and the surrounding area for a long time. ”

"What about Teacher Ling?" Yan Hua's heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask.

Chen Shui thought for a moment and replied, "Teacher Ling's words, I have always been a field teacher in Cambrian before, and I still have the task of the Adjudication Academy, so I have less time than I have lived here. ”

Yan Hua had a question, he had never found a suitable opportunity before, but now he was finally able to follow the topic and ask: "Teacher, I remember that Teacher Feng and Teacher Ling should be brother and sister, right?" Why do they have different surnames? ”

Chen Shui was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that Yan Hua didn't even know about this kind of thing, and only explained after a while: "That's because in Teacher Ling's family, only women can use the surname Ling, and men can only use other surnames. ”

"Huh? Why is that? It was the first time for Yan Hua to hear such strange rules, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Chen Shui suddenly stopped, turned to look at Yan Hua who looked surprised, and said calmly: "That's because the Ling family is a female-dominated family, and all the heads of the family in the past have been women.

As for the male members of the Ling family, although they will not be discriminated against or anything, and their status is equal except that they cannot be the head of the family, they are the only ones who cannot use the surname Ling, but they all have the surname Feng. ”

Yan Hua originally thought that Ling Feixue's family would have some prejudice against women and men, but it wasn't until after listening to Chen Shui's explanation that he realized that he had misunderstood, but he was also completely confused.

"Since there is no other differential treatment except that you can't be the head of the family, why did the Ling family come up with such a set of rules that are easy for people to misunderstand?"

Chen Shui shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, about this issue, you have to ask the first head of the Ling family what he thinks, and I don't know what the specific reason is." ”

"Ling Hanwu?" Yan Hua was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something, and asked in shock, "Is she a woman?" ”

When Chen Shui heard this, his expression suddenly became strange, and he seemed to be even more surprised than Yan Hua: "Has anyone ever told you that Ling Hanwu is a man?" ”

"Huh?"

Yan Hua stood in place for a while, recalled it carefully, and found that it was indeed as if no one had told him that Ling Hanwu was a man, and he immediately felt extremely embarrassed.

Although Yan Hua can't be blamed for this, after all, no one has ever popularized this common sense with him, which is taken for granted in everyone's eyes, and the name Ling Hanwu is indeed easy to cause misunderstanding among others just by listening to it.

But as a student at Cambrian Academy, you don't even know the gender of the founder, so it's shameful enough.

Fortunately, this embarrassing atmosphere did not last long, Chen Shui turned around and walked towards the depths of the dense forest again, and continued the topic just now: "Well, but over the years, the outside world has made some interesting speculations about the Ling family's system. Although there was no positive response, there is some truth when you think about it. ”

Yan Hua followed behind Chen Shui and didn't speak again, for fear that he would make some jokes again.

Chen Shui didn't mind, and continued: "Among these speculations, the most convincing is the theory of genetic inheritance. ”

Yan Hua still couldn't resist the urge to learn more about Ling Feixue, and asked, "What does this have to do with genetic inheritance?" ”

"As we all know, before Ling Hanwu became the last awakened person in the Dark Ages, he was just an ordinary person with no ability.

However, less than half a year after she appeared in the limelight, she subverted the previous perception of human beings that only before the age of ten could she accidentally become an awakened person, and forcibly raised the upper limit to twenty years old.

And Ling Hanwu also became the strongest superpower at that time with his awakened thunder and lightning ability, and thus helped mankind start a new era. ”

Chen Shui patiently popularized science, "But such a powerful ability can only appear in the women of the Ling family from generation to generation, and there has never been a case of male inheritance." ”

Yan Hua asked, "So Ling Hanwu knew that this would happen a long time ago, and in order to ensure the inheritance of ability, did he set such a strange system?" ”

"After all, Ling Hanwu's past achievements and achievements are there, and if he can have the same ability as her, he is enough to be the head of this family." Chen Shui said, "And setting such a rule early can also prevent people's minds from changing and causing unnecessary fights within the Ling family, which is indeed a way to kill two birds with one stone." ”

After listening to this, Yan Hua felt that he had gained a lot of knowledge, and when he was about to ask something more, Chen Shui in front of him suddenly stopped in front of a cliff.

"We're here." Chen Shui looked back at Yan Huadao on the side, "If you cross here, it's completely the world of Strange Beasts." I'm only here for three days, and I hope to see you back alive. ”

Yan Hua looked down at the cliff, and the first thing he saw was the waves of the endless forest sea under the blowing wind, and then he took a closer look, and found several fleeting black shadows disappearing under the green waves.

Although he couldn't see the specific appearance of the other party, he was sure that what he had just seen was definitely some kind of strange beast.

Yan Hua retracted his gaze and said a little speechlessly. "Teacher, although I know that this is your usual style, but I'm going to the Endless Forest now, can't you give me a little encouragement?"

Chen Shuicong admonished: "Of course you can, then I hope you will have time to rescue it by then." ”

"......" Yan Hua weighed it, and felt that it was easier to think about how to fight the entire Endless Forest on his own than to think about how to make Chen Shui learn to encourage others.

Jokes aside, Chen Shui finally gave his advice seriously: "Although this is only the periphery of the forest, you must also be careful not to go too deep, otherwise if you encounter a six-star or seven-star ability beast, you will definitely not be able to compete with your current strength, understand?" ”

Yan Hua suddenly felt that he had a toothache, and asked with a grin: "This is the outer area of the Endless Forest, so what is the forest we just walked through?" ”

Chen Shui replied as a matter of course: "Of course it's not the Endless Forest, it's not even a buffer zone between the Endless Forest and the Cambrian, at best, it can only be said to be the outpost of the Cambrian Academy." ”

Yan Hua estimated, don't look at the fact that he and Chen Shui have not been talking for a long time, but they have also run a distance of more than 20 kilometers.

More than 20 kilometers, it doesn't look like a lot, but it is a large area after being converted into an area.

After Yan Hua learned that he hadn't reached the boundary of the Endless Forest at all, he suddenly felt bad.

"Well, can I ask if if I don't leave this outer area, what level of Psychic beast will be in the greatest danger?"

"Well, don't worry, like all forests, the Exotic Beasts in this area are just small characters who don't pose a threat." Chen Shui patted Yan Hua's shoulder and said in a nonchalant tone.

Then, without waiting for Yan Hua to breathe a sigh of relief, he said again, "After all, this place is barely a buffer zone, and the academy will also regularly organize people to go in to eliminate some hidden dangers." Now, except for a small number of six-star level ability beasts, the rest should be around the five-star level. ”

“......”

Although Yan Hua didn't know much about some common sense of Cambrian, he also knew that at the same level, the combat power of the Alien Beast was stronger than that of the Superpower.

At this moment, after hearing Chen Shui's introduction, he suddenly had the urge to turn his face and leave, but fortunately, he was persuaded by the other party's words in the end.

"Well, since you want to use the tempering between life and death to stimulate your full potential, then you can use all means, that is to say, except for zero energy consumption spears and extreme accidents, I won't mind you using here."

Chen Shui nodded his head and said meaningfully, "This is a good opportunity to exercise the tacit understanding of the battle, don't waste it in vain." ”

Yan Hua replied with some hesitation: "I understand, but I'm thinking about ......"

Chen Shui showed a smile and said: "Don't think that this is opportunistic, you must know that the biggest difference between humans and beasts is that humans can use everything they can use to arm themselves and improve themselves, since you have such conditions, you must firmly grasp it." ”

It can be seen that Yan Hua is still a little hesitant, "Thank you, teacher, but I mean ......"

Chen Shui waved his hand impatiently and said: "This is your tempering, looking ahead and looking backward will only backfire, and everything that should be said for the teacher has been said, go ahead." ”

Yan Hua finally made up his mind, but he still stood motionless, stretched out his hand and pointed to the cliff in front of him that was almost ninety degrees: "I want to ask the teacher one last time, how can I go down in such a high place?" ”

Chen Shui was silent for a moment, then looked at the bottom of the cliff that was dozens of meters high from the ground, and after thinking for a while, he blinked his eyes and said, "Well, this is the first test that the teacher gives you." ”

At the end, he added, "I deliberately forgot to bring a rope so that you can enter the state of training from this moment on." ”

"Even if you look so determined, teacher, it's hard for me to believe it...... Ah~"

Before Yan Hua finished speaking, he felt that someone suddenly kicked him on the buttocks, and the whole person came to mid-air, and then he fell sharply towards the bottom of the cliff.

At the last moment, he only saw Chen Shuizheng give him an encouraging smile while retracting his right foot.

and let out a scream and hold up a finger in the center to send his most sincere greetings to his teacher before parting.
