That was a long time ago, and he couldn't remember exactly how long it was. At that time, he was still a beggar on the street, and after several twists and turns, he came to Sioux City with the exiled crowd, and that day happened to be the biggest snow in Sioux City in several years, so big that the huge West Lake was covered with a few feet of frozen ice, so big that the snow flooded the wheels of the carriage, and even the first building in Sioux City, "Hechun Tower", which never took a vacation, closed the vermilion lacquer door.

He wandered around this beautiful, cold city wearing only a tattered rag coat and an old cloth bag that someone had abandoned somebody. At that time, he didn't know if he had been frozen stupid, but he still thought, "Wow, this is snow, it's so beautiful, it's worth dying in this beautiful place like a fairyland......" while slowly walking towards a row of low houses on the edge of the city.

"Huh? Whose child is this, why do they sleep on the street in such cold weather? ”

A slightly rough and earthy voice woke him up in his ears, and when he opened his eyes, the first thing that caught him was a bright red, and then he looked up at a lean man with a short beard.

"Looks like it's a homeless person who just came over this time, right?"

Another cold and beautiful voice sounded, he rubbed his eyes and looked closely, it turned out to be a beautiful woman in white clothes and white hair behind the man.

"It's really strange, it's white on a snowy day, and as a result, these two guys are all red as if they are afraid that others will not see them, and the other is completely white as if they are afraid that others will find out." How else could he say that he was strange? It's all like this, but when he was about to freeze to death, he still thought about such inconsequential things.

Just as he was thinking nonsense, the woman in white stepped forward and squatted in front of him.

"Hey, little one, what's your name?"

"I, I don't have a name......"

"No name? Hmm, I think about it. My surname is Gu, and I picked you up on a snowy day, so why don't you call Gu Tianxue? ”

"Huh? Yes?! ”

He suddenly felt that his already abnormal thinking couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the woman.

"Ah what, I, ahem, this seat suddenly found that I have a very good relationship with you and want to take you as a disciple, I don't know what you want?"

“......”

He didn't answer, and his mind hadn't turned yet. The woman waited for a long time and didn't reply, and couldn't help glaring at him with some annoyance.

"I, I do, of course I do!"

The woman nodded in satisfaction and suddenly sneered, that smile made him feel as if the biting cold was slowly moving away, and it was like a small flower the size of a goose-yellow rice grain that he had seen in an unknown town a long time ago.

The woman reached out and took out a straw from his hair, touched his head, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, you will be my big disciple in the future, if someone bullies you, come back and tell me, Master will help you beat them!" Rest assured, you won't be hurt again......"

"Lao Zhu, hold him well, let's go home."

"Okay!"

“......”

"Zheng!"

The piercing sound of metal rubbing woke up Gu Tianxue, who was caught in a memory, and it turned out to be Zhu Da's short knife swing and blocking a long arrow shooting at him. He came back to his senses and said a little helplessly: "But even so, Uncle Zhu, we can't go back to the past, and she will never come back......

The blood in Zhu Da's eyes gradually dissipated, and he looked at Li Xue with a struggling face, hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, adult, she is still alive......"

"What did you say?!"

Gu Tianxue screamed like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and her figure flashed in front of Zhu Da, grabbed his neck and said, "Uncle Zhu, although I respect you, don't use this matter to make fun of me!" ”

"Ahem." Zhu Da blushed and forcefully broke Li Xue's hand a few points away and said, "Believe it or not, the adult is indeed alive, but the injury is very serious, she is just worried that you will come back to her again, so she let us guard here." cough cough cough ......"

Gu Tianxue let go of the hand that was clutching Zhu Da's neck and muttered in despair: "Impossible, this is impossible, I obviously saw her fall ....... at that time"

Zhu Da finally slowed down and cut down a soldier who killed him, took a deep look at Gu Tianxue and said: "Anyway, my old Zhu has made it clear today, and the person has been saved, if you are still willing to stay here and wait for death, you can do it." Brothers, let's go! ”

Zhu Da rushed out with the remaining heroes, but Gu Tianxue smiled self-deprecatingly, nodded apologetically in a certain direction outside the crowd, and chased Zhu Da and the others on tiptoe.

In front of a small flower shop outside the crowd, Guan Yin slowly unsheathed the long knife that had been drawn, and he looked at the city lord of Su City in confusion and asked, "My lord, why did you let them go so easily?" ”

"It should not be caught, and this Sioux City also owes them a favor. And ......," he said, looking in the other direction outside the crowd, where stood a tall and handsome boy in white Katsuyuki.

"And we're not the only ones here......

At this time, Feng Xue took a fruit from his hand and took a bite of it, and said with interest: "Interesting, this trip was really not in vain, I didn't expect that the 'Lone Rakshasa' who should have died three years ago was still alive, and he also caught the big fish Gu Tianxue by the way." Ah Ye, report this matter back, it's time to find something for the old men to do. ”

"Yes, Childe."

Fengxue nodded, and then looked at Wang Qingdao on the other side: "As for you, little fat man, I remember that your family has contacts with businessmen from all over the world, I have something to hand over to you to handle, I don't know if you want to?" ”

Wang Qing nodded violently: "Of course, Gongzi, you said, I, Wang Qing, promise to handle things properly for you!" ”

"Alright, I need you to spread the word for me."

"What's the news?"

"Academy, it's new..."

"Holy!"

Fengxue slapped Wang Qing on the back of the head: "You try it again?" ”

·

"The academy has been recruited?!"

A small head came out of the mountain of old books and looked at the girl in front of him with a look of surprise, but then he re-entered the pile with a look of disgust.

"It must be fake news again, you love to deceive people so much......"

The hook-kissed good-looking willow eyebrows couldn't help shaking, she reached into the pile of books, easily picked up Gu Yan and threw it on the bed on the side, and pretended to be vicious: "Hey little rabbit cub, this is the news that my sister finally inquired about, believe it or not." Also, when did I fall in love with deceitful! ”

Gu Yan rubbed his ass expressionlessly and said: "Yesterday I lied to go to the hall for a meeting, and the day before yesterday, I lied to Aunt Hua's Ah Huang who lost it and caused me to look for it for a long time, and last week I lied to that my master came back......"

"Stop, stop!"

Hook kissed helplessly held his forehead with one hand, and rubbed Gu Yan's head with the other hand and said, "Okay, this time it's really not a lie to you, it's the news from the hall." ”

Gu Yan was still expressionless, he jumped out of bed and returned to the pile of books to find a simple and yellowed classic from inside, only to see him turn a page and read aloud: "The academy, formerly known as Jinghong Academy, was founded by the first emperor five thousand years ago. However, due to the 4300 years of the calendar, the traitorous ministers traveled to the cholera dynasty and monopolized the government, and successively poisoned a series of loyal ministers such as the general Yue Yun, Wang Dang of Dali Temple, and Liu Xun, the king of Hejian, with bad records, and pointed to the Jinghong Academy. Fortunately, the situation at home and abroad was turbulent at that time and troops needed to be sent to suppress it, and the Queen Mother and the Right Prime Minister were able to survive the martyrdom.

However, since then, Jinghong Academy has been renamed as a college, no longer meddles in the affairs of the court, concentrates on educating talents and teaching people, and lowers the entrance threshold to become a real Shengliang Church. ”

After reading the ancient saying, he threw the book aside and picked up a small thin book again, and read: "According to the records of historians throughout the ages, as well as the combination of observation and research in the next many years, the following conclusions have been obtained:

1. Although the college has set a low threshold for admission, the assessment is still difficult. The exam questions in the academy are different every year, so the rules cannot be fully discovered, and there is even an exam that only depends on the eyes of teachers and students.

2. The students accepted by the college include all walks of life, from beggars to wanted murderers, and what is even more strange is that almost seventy percent of these students who have graduated from the college will go to their old professions.

Three... Well, the following are some precautions after admission, but look at this last one'The academy has gone through countless spring and autumn periods, and the only thing that has not changed is that the time for new students is the early summer of each year, when the lotus flowers first bloom. ’

So, Ah Kiss, tell me, what is it that can make the academy that has not changed the rules for thousands of years accept new ones at the time of the autumn harvest now? ”
