Chapter 34: The speed of Yi Qian's butterfly
This mountain, embedded in the walls of the Scarlet Sun Castle, is a remnant of the pumice stone Ruoqiu Mountain. On the most beautiful Zhuyun Ridge of Ruoyang Mountain is the main courtyard of the Cloud Academy. In front of the mountain gate, which has been bustling for more than a month, it has also been quiet for the past two days. The ten people who were examined from the people of Scarlet Sun Fort were also decided. The enthusiasm of the people seems to have dissipated.
In fact, when there was no Scarlet Sun Fort, there was Ruoyang Mountain, there was Zhuyunling, and there was the small academy on Zhuyunling. When there was a small academy, no one could tell what the exact date was. Anyway, there was no Scarlet Sun Fort at that time, and there were only a few small villages around Zhuyunling. But when there was Yun Academy, most of the people in Scarlet Sun Fort could say a few words. If you are older, you will also tell you that he personally experienced the moment when the Cloud Academy was founded.
That time is not far from today. Thirty years is not long under the wheel of history. Therefore, the elderly people in Scarlet Sun Castle have a special affection for Yun Academy. It's not because it's young enough, it's because it was founded by a person. It's a person that the older Scarlet Sunburgers will never forget. The name of the eldest lady has been deliberately forgotten by the royal officials of Scarlet Sun Castle. But she is still well remembered by many people in Forriburg.
It was a beautiful woman, even the old lady in the alley, who would tell others the answer to this question. But the people of Scarlet Sunburg remember this person not only because of her beauty. It's because she's strong, stronger than all men in that moment. Thirty years ago, under the iron hooves of the sparse people, the city was on the verge of succumbing in an instant. None of the people in the royal palace who wore broad robes and crowns dared to lead the soldiers to the battle. When the sparse people arrived at the city of Scarlet Castle, they naturally discussed how it would be more cost-effective to surrender.
Speaking of that day, the old people of Scarlet Sun Fort seemed to have seen it with their own eyes. You can talk to a stranger all day. What kind of pennant covers the sun, the eldest lady wears a golden helmet and holds a silver spear, and comes to the Scarlet Temple in three steps and nine knocks...... The drama is that Andor has heard more than a dozen different versions of the story. But when these people got together, they never quarreled for a completely different reason in this version. Attentive people found that they got together after talking. Everyone's version will be upgraded. Everyone can't wait to put what they hear into their own stories and tell them to others.
So this matter became more and more strange in Scarlet Castle. The nobles of the government seem to have never heard of this person at all. And in the streets and alleys, even the porters and brokers often find an excuse to talk about it endlessly. Although the official people are very taboo to talk about the eldest lady, no one dares to come out and deny what happened to her. Even if she does make mistakes, she will be scolded for a few years. And this Cloud Academy, which has changed from a small academy, has gathered everyone's attention to her.
After the people of Scarlet Sun Fort hung up the big lady's written plaque from the Cloud Academy, they took it for granted that it was the academy of all the people of Scarlet Sun Castle. Needless to say, the kind of desperate maintenance, even the King of Scarlet Sun Castle did not dare to touch it. The person who went in under that plaque was the envy of all. What came out of that plaque was begging in the alleys of Scarlet Castle, and it was also possible to get three points cheaper. Because he begged to the deep house of the front street, and no evil servant dared to let the dog out.
It's not that he's a beggar, but that everyone knows it. Cloud Academy has always been a place where 'madmen' and 'monsters' come out. In the past 30 years, it has not only produced countless heroes in that war, but also produced more generals, commanders, and celebrities in the following days. Well, there is no one else who can remember the 'madmen' and 'monsters' who came over.
In the past two days, there have been fewer people at the door, but it is only the root of the ears of the tooth finch, and it is difficult to calm down these days. Black Benny and Lo Genyi seemed to have discussed it, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. came to her in turn to discuss the formation of a new guard by Scarlet Sun. She didn't know what this matter had to do with her. She was sure that she wanted to go up the mountain, but she felt that there was some truth in the words of the scarlet day ceremony. It's not that I'm going to participate in the formation of a guard in the Scarlet Sun ceremony. So before dawn, the tooth finch had already gotten up and cleaned up the lisso. I'm going to go out and hide. The mouths of those two really bothered her, but she couldn't get angry.
Pushing open the door of the small courtyard, the tooth finch froze. Black Benny stood proudly in front of the door. When he saw the tooth sparrow pushing the door open, he bowed. "Tooth Girl is in good spirits today. But do you want to walk in the morning? I've admired the skills of the tooth girl for many days! Just listening to the descriptions of Miss Scarlet Sun and Mr. Gong, I can't satisfy my curiosity now. Black Benny clapped his hands lightly, looking sincere and serious. So that the tooth finch can't see the slightest trigger that can get angry.
"I'll just take a spin. I didn't plan to practice anything. It is also not convenient to do the exercises in the morning. Do whatever you need to do! The tooth sparrow replied faintly. She now regrets that she died, and she left these two people behind that day. Isn't it a talent that matters to themselves? What does it have to do with what you don't bury or not? Now these two words are ringing in my ears all day long. In Amdo's words, it is called: 'It is especially forgivable to do sins in heaven, but it is impossible to live if you do sins yourself.' ’
"I don't have anything to do. I want to go for a walk even if I wake up early. Why don't you just take a walk with the tooth girl. The tooth finch didn't even bother to say no. She already knew she had a reason to say. The other party can say ten in the blink of an eye, so that he can't find a reason to refuse without tearing off his face. The scary thing is that even if you tear off your face. This red-faced kid can also follow shamelessly without saying anything.
"Tooth girl, I heard that you went up the mountain to look for someone?" Not again! The tooth finch pretended not to hear anything. The head kept looking at the other side, walking slowly. Most of the flowers and plants in the garden have withered. A few long green pine needles are not as green as they were a few days ago. Even the long-tailed kites that fly by from time to time in the trees are very annoying to watch. Black Benny acted as if nothing embarrassing had happened. He talked down on his own. "If Tooth Girl really wants to do this. I'm going to have to make some serious comments. ”
"So, the black boy was talking nonsense a few days ago?" Tooth Sparrow said unceremoniously. "It's not right for the tooth girl to say that. I just said something the other day that would be good for Toothgirl. But I didn't think about what the real hope of the tooth girl was. Speaking of which, the tooth girl also has to bear some responsibility. "Oh, really?" The tooth sparrow replied coldly. "If only Toothgirl had been honest with us from the beginning. I and I didn't know what Miss Scarlet Sun's purpose was when we listened to Miss Scarlet Sun's words yesterday. What a waste of time! ”
"It's better to spend some time on what you don't need to waste. I really don't need to bother the two sons in my affairs! "The tone of the tooth finch is rather unkind." Why don't you listen to what I say today and make a decision? Black Benny looked at the tooth finch with blazing eyes. What's the difference between today and yesterday? I had already made up my mind. "The tooth girl should listen to it as nonsense. What does the tooth girl know about this floating mountain? "Just because I don't know anything, right?" The toothed finch crouched down and picked up a leaf, still glowing green, from the road. Hold it in your hand and play with it. For a while, he held it in front of his eyes, carefully watching the trend of the leaf veins.
"There is a great secret in this mountain. It's not just us in Scarlet Castle who crave it. It's Shuliu City and Fawu City, and a lot of spies are sent there every year. "What does this have to do with me?" Tooth Sparrow didn't care. "It has nothing to do with you for the time being. It may not have nothing to do with the son of Andor who is already in the mountains. If you go into the mountains, you will naturally have a relationship with you. And the people in this academy, each of them has a great relationship with you. Not many people will be happy to see you go in and come out unharmed. Do you think those people just have a grudge against Miss Scarlet Sun? Do you think those people really care about the inheritance and teachings of the academy? What they really care about is what is in the mountains. For that, they can be the enemy of anyone! ”
"Finished?" The toothed finch seemed to be tired of seeing the green leaves in its hand, and casually threw it into the wind. "One more point. We want Toothgirl to be part of the Guard, not just to protect us at your convenience. We are here to unite and protect ourselves. In the academy, those people may be more honest. Once they are in the mountains, they will do anything. We went to study at the academy in peace. But some people are afraid that they will not think so. So only our goals do not conflict. ”
"Why don't you learn from Latugue?" The toothed finch sat down on a decaying stump. "Oh...... I didn't have much to say." Black Benny is a bit of a twist. "It's just that I thought Luo Gengqi was right this time. If only we didn't stick together. It wasn't torn up and eaten by those gangs. It's to be their minions! Black Benny looked indignantly at the front of him, where nothing was there.
"Your Highness, it has been decided. The academy gave the remaining 100 people to the young lady. "And so it was!" In the room, Scarlet Japanese kept circling around the table. This would have been an extra hundred to go to the academy. It was carefully vacated by him. For this purpose, he has worked hard for a month. I didn't expect to see that I was about to go up the mountain. But there is this change. "What do the others think?" "Agreed." "The Taoqiu family also agreed?" Scarlet Japanese asked fiercely. "Yes." "At this time, sure enough, allies and everything are unreliable. Since they all agreed, it would be useless for us to object. You go down and let the catalogue and the cigarette get the team ready. Without these people, we wouldn't have let those guys take advantage! ”
"Isn't there a place for you over there? Why do you have to crowd here? Andor leaned against a tree, and looked without interest at all at the dark shadow below the mountain. He didn't know what was there to see about it. Old man Mai had to rush everyone here to watch the opening day ceremony. "It's warm here." Yi Qiandie said casually. "Miss Leda sent you to keep an eye on me, right? Feel relieved! I'm not so stupid to sneak down the mountain in such a watchful eye. Andor glanced at Yi Qiandie, who was already sitting on the other side of the tree.
"Do you think it's stupid to go down the mountain today? I don't think so, I think there will be a chance today. Yi Qiandie swore and promised. What do you mean? Andor turned to look at her. If you could tell me why you have to go down. Maybe I can turn a blind eye. Yi Qiandie smiled. He smiled so sincerely that he raised his eyebrows. "Maybe you can't just turn a blind eye, can you?" "It's easy to talk to smart people. Let's talk about it, it won't affect anything anyway? ”
"Why do I have to stay here?" Both of them didn't seem to have much interest in the 'Heavenly Steps', the opening day ceremony that was about to begin. It looks amazing, with a vertical height of more than 1,000 steps, and a ladder made of green sand niobium of more than 600 meters. Slowly sticking out of the cliff face on the side. It is no more than two meters wide and slowly becomes longer. When it was almost ten meters wide, Andor heard a crisp snapping sound. The 'Heavenly Steps' were fully formed right under Amdo's nose. There was no trace of surprise on Andor's face, which was understandable. After all, he has seen a lot of machines that are bigger than this. But Yi Qiandie didn't seem to be a little surprised. Her interest seemed to be all in talking to Amdo.
"We're not reasoning. You don't have to try to convince me. I won't be as hostile to you as Sister Su is. But I'm not going to help you for nothing. "Yi Qiandie doesn't have any scruples." There really isn't a normal guy here! Andor let out a deliberate sigh. Don't use such a low-level agitation method often, right? "Is there one? I'm just sorry for the atmosphere here. You don't have to be so sensitive. ”
"Knowing that you can't escape from the gate of the academy, it's rare that you still have such a mood. You've already read the "New Regulations", right? Yi Qiandie said lightly. It's like talking about a trivial matter. "I've seen it! No wonder people have often said since ancient times, 'It is better to offend a villain than a woman.' It makes sense! "You don't have to deliberately provoke me everywhere. Do you think that this matter must have been brought up by Lesu? "Who else could have thought of such a lack of virtue?"
"You're underestimating the instructor of the Academy. Their wisdom in this area is far from being comparable to that of women! Yi Qiandie smiled very happily, and her eyes kept flashing towards Ando. Old Man Mai's idea? Amdo said tentatively. How could the great plan of the academy be without the dean. Yi Qiandie pretended to be solemn. The body that sits cross-legged becomes a kneeling position. "It's a shame he can think of it! But the old man hadn't come down for a long time. How did he know the way to be such a philistine? Ando smiled and looked at Yi Qiandie, who was affectionate in the corner of his eyes. Although she couldn't tell what kind of affection was contained in the corners of her eyes, Andor would never misunderstand what kind of affection she had for herself.
"Well, Lord Hegu also made some comments." Yi Qiandie was obviously stunned. "I think Miss Le has also made some very pertinent suggestions, right?" Andor said with a grin. It's impossible to see what's going on in his mind. "That's nature. After all, Sister Su is the commander of the guard. "Hehe, you guys really know how to play. So, if we don't listen. Probably starved to death? "How could it be! The basic living guarantee should still be guaranteed by the college. "What should be done is never something that Old Man Mai will definitely do!"
"Actually, Dean Mai and Sister Lesu are very optimistic about you!" Yi Qiandie said seriously. "Really? How can I feel that they hate me? "That's because you're always self-centered." "Oh? I'm not centered on me, who do you think I should revolve around? Ay! Who's that guy dressed in a bag? Why do I look at him like a man? Amdo looked at it in amazement, the first person to come up the heavenly steps. He's a man! ”
"Oh, why is a man wearing such a red robe?" "You don't know him?" Yi Qiandie looked at Andor in surprise. "He is His Royal Highness of Scarlet Sun Castle, Prince Wen of Scarlet Japan. This scarlet robe is the royal family's ceremonial garment. "Oh." Yi Qiandie saw Amdo's lack of interest. I won't go into it anymore. The people who came up later, Amdo was not even more interested. When he got up and patted the weeds and dust on his buttocks, he was about to go back. Suddenly, from the crowd, I saw a familiar figure. The purple hair fluttering in the wind, among so many heads, Amdo recognized it at a glance. A wave of joy welled up in my heart, and my face swelled up in an instant.
Andor pulled his legs and rushed towards the heavenly steps. Yi Qiandie was stunned for a while before she realized that the situation was wrong. He shouted loudly as he chased after him. A redder than the crimson robe of His Highness rushed out from behind a tree. She was much faster than Yi Qiandie. After a while, he chased after Andor.
"Stinky boy! I'll see where you're going! The bright red figure swept past behind the tree. Andor saw her. When she came far away with Yi Qiandie, Andor knew that she was hiding in the shadows. These days though the strength of the body does not increase much. However, the sensitivity of the senses can be felt almost every day. This made Andor feel terrified. Fortunately, the shadow woman Duoduo said that this was a natural and advanced phenomenon when the "perceptual sensory system" was born. Don't worry.
How could Andor listen to her shouting. This stinky Nizi, who has always been a fox and a fake tiger, has made him unhappy for a long time. When he saw the purple hair, Andor didn't want to endure it anymore. Sure enough, Amdo's running immediately attracted the attention of the purple-haired man. She raised her head and laughed at the sight of Andor. Seeing Andor running towards him, he was chasing a girl in red. She smiled even wider. Looking at her face, Ando suddenly felt a hint of mockery in her smile. A realization that instantly went straight to the bottom of his heart immediately appeared in Amdo's mind. His feet suddenly increased, and he fell down and rushed to the purple-haired girl's side.
A chill swished and flew over Amdo's head, which had just been lowered. "Ahh Immediately there was a scream behind him.
