CHAPTER XIV

"You haven't seen the Yao Ling Festival, people from all over the mainland gather in the royal city, that is spectacular. Have you ever seen the alien race in the East, and they are really beautiful. Tsk, nothing to say. ”

In a tavern outside the royal city, the proprietor was dancing and talking to everyone about the Yao Ling Festival. There is a sense of pride in the gestures.

"You're not the only one who's seen it, it's every eight years, it's not every eighty years. A drinker said.

The boss was not happy to hear this, "That can be the same, a few aliens have come to drink in my tavern." ”

"Don't brag, boss, can people look at your tavern?" the crowd laughed.

"Then you don't know, my tavern has to queue up during the Yaoling Festival. ”

Everyone was ridiculed again, but Canglan listened to it with a lot of flavor on the side. The illness was sad on the side, because he paid the expenses all the way alone,

As Ripple said before, she followed the two of them all the way, and Canglan had no way to take her. Although she is not a good person, Canglan will not leave her alone. Canglan had also asked Ripple for his wallet, but was told that the money had already been spent. Ripple also offered to steal someone else's money to pay back Canglan, but was stopped.

Canglan and Ripple had no money, and they inexplicably paid for three people. But the disease itself is not rich, and the money is saved little by little, so it will definitely be a little distressing to provide for others in such a luxurious way.

"You owe me five hundred cululombs now. Said quickly.

"I'll pay it back to you later. Canglan said. "By the way, have you ever seen the interracial that the boss said?"

He glanced at Canglan, "Yes, there are aliens in the academy." ”

"There are still aliens in the Yao Ling Academy. Canglan was a little surprised.

"Otherwise, why is the Karen Kingdom the strongest kingdom on the continent? there are everyone, I heard that there are people from the Sea Clan, but I haven't seen it. ”

Ripples on the side asked, "Is that alien really weird?"

"Let me tell you, most of them look the same as us, and a few of them look weird. But I think it's still a matter of concept, they all say that they are interracial, but in fact, they are not so different. If you really want to say that the appearance is special, wouldn't the people of the other kingdoms be even more special. ”

At this point, the convoy outside the tavern urged the people in the tavern, and the three of them left with the rest of the guests.

Eight days had passed since he left the Cape of the Sea, and the royal city was finally in sight.

The towering walls look old, full of traces of time. A great river crossed the city gates, not from where it came upstream, but disappeared from view with a bend downward. A bridge is built in front of the city gate, connecting the two sides of the river. Bustling vehicles and crowds meet at the city gates, carrying their own stories on their lives.

The convoy entered the royal city, and Canglan was immediately attracted by the city.

The city in Canglan's impression is just like Qingyan Town. Plain, quiet, and lacking in variety, even after a few months, you can still see the same scene. But when he stepped into the royal city, Canglan knew that this was definitely not that kind of city, and the people and things he saw today might never have the opportunity to see them again in the future. Although the scenery is unlikely to change, most of the landmarks become unrecognizable in the crowds. And pedestrians, vendors, even more so. What's more, Canglan is just a passerby, and he will not be remembered by others, and it is difficult to remember many things.

The crowd is rushed, and although it is for the same goal, it lacks regularity and makes it easy to get lost.

Because of this emotion, Canglan is more attentive to everything around him, and his eyes seem to be wandering, but in fact, he is capturing no detail that may be overlooked. Seeing all this in his eyes, Xiao Canglan has never seen the world. Canglan didn't take it seriously, and continued to look at the surrounding scenery.

After leaving the station, Ji found a hotel for Canglan and Ripple, and the two settled down, of course, this is also the money that Ji paid.

"You can lend me another five hundred kuulombs directly, and save me trouble. Canglan squeezed out a smile.

He was very helpless, but he still lent the money to Canglan.

"Now you owe me a thousand kulun, you must pay me back, it is not easy for me to make money. ”

"Understood. "Canglan naturally knows that illness is also a person, and every money is hard-won.

"It's not too early now, I'll go to the academy first, I'll come to you tomorrow, and then we'll go to the Sword Forgers Guild together. ”

After leaving, Canglan lay on the bed to relieve the fatigue left after a long day of travel. That's when the ripples came in.

"It's finally here. Ripple walked to the edge of Canglan's bed and sat on the edge of the bed, Canglan felt a little embarrassed, so he sat up.

"What are you going to do in the future? The royal city has arrived, and it's almost time for us to part. Canglan said.

"Finally, there are only two of us left, and you don't say something nice, but you still want to drive me away. Ripple looked unhappy, "Moreover, I said at the Cape of the Sea that I would always follow you, but I didn't say that I would follow you to the royal city." ”

Canglan didn't understand.

"What are you doing with me?"

"I've been in Huayu Town for too long, and I want to go out to see, then it's not suitable for me to go out as a girl, you don't know how to cherish this opportunity for you, maybe after getting along for a long time, I'll fall in love with you, then you'll make a lot of money." Besides, if you drive me away now, and I don't have any money, then I can only steal. ”

Canglan was very helpless about this girl, but he couldn't hate it, he didn't know what kind of mentality it was. But Canglan knew that he didn't have any feelings of liking this girl, although he hadn't liked anyone else.

"I haven't asked you this question, why did you go to the Shadow Forest. Canglan asked.

"It's a secret, and I won't be able to tell you until we're on good enough. ”

"Have you given up now?"

"That's not, it's just a little unrealistic to want to go in now, wait for you to be good enough, wait for you to take me in. ”

Canglan regretted asking about it, but there was no way out, just sighed. It's not acquiescence, it's not rejection, it's just pure non-response. This is when he thought that he might join Mo Wentian's mercenary group, what should Ripples do at that time? Canglan thought so, not realizing that his eyes had fallen on Ripples. When he came to his senses, he found that Ripple was laughing at himself, and Canglan also smiled awkwardly, but he didn't say anything about the mercenary group.

At sunset, Yaoling Academy looks particularly spectacular.

The history of Yao Ling Academy is so long that even the location of the royal city is located here because of it. At that time, Cullen was still a small country, and Yao Ling Academy was also the only academy in Cullen. But it was through this academy that countless strong people were born, which made Cullen stand out in that cruel era and become a powerful country. After that, the capital of the Karen royal city was here, and the Yao Ling Academy became world-famous, attracting elites from all over the mainland. Cullen is also generous, putting aside previous grievances and accepting talents from all over the world. Countless people flocked to Karen, and the kingdom of Karen became stronger and stronger, playing a pivotal role in both the war with the aliens and the war with the Sea Clan.

The college is located in a corner of the royal city, half inside the city and half outside the city. The great river that lay at the gate of the city meandered through the academy and continued downward. The interior of the college is like a town, with all kinds of facilities, because there are a large number of people from other countries and even foreign countries, and there are different styles of buildings inside.

Rushed into Yaoling Academy, the sun was setting, and the academy was still bustling. I met a few familiar classmates in the middle, exchanged a few simple greetings, and after a few tosses, I finally found Mo Wentian.

"Ask the sky. He said hello.

Mo Wentian was chatting with another person at this time, and his face was full of joy when he saw the disease.

"You're back just in time, do you remember what I told you about the mercenary group? This is our pharmacist Maren. ”

glanced at Ma Lun, who was also a familiar face in the academy, and looked like he should also be a child of a high-ranking official family.

"Hello. ”

"Hello, I'm Maren, and we'll be companions from now on. ”

Mo Wentian continued, "Since you are also here, we can set off after the affairs of the academy are completed in a few days." ”

"Where are you going?"

"In the Yaoling Festival, it is more troublesome for pharmacists and swordsmiths to participate in the competition, and they need to find a few special materials, although they can be bought, but those materials are very expensive to be fried by merchants. And I think it's better for us to look for it together. During this period, we will also go to some dangerous places, which is also a kind of grinding for us. The more Mo Wentian spoke, the more excited he became, "We will definitely become a team that surpasses Silver Moon." ”

Silver Moon, the strongest mercenary group in history.

Seeing Mo Wentian mention this topic, he hurriedly said, "Speaking of swordsmiths, Canglan has also come to the royal city. It just so happens that we are still short of a swordsmith. ”

Mo Wentian looked around, looking for Canglan's figure.

"Didn't he come with you?"

"It's getting dark today, and the academy doesn't allow outsiders to enter, so he didn't come. ”

Mo Wentian nodded, "Wait for the next time we talk about this matter in detail, my father has something to look for me, and I have to rush back." ”

"Okay!"

After that, he returned to his dormitory, which had not been tidied up for a month, and there was still some dust in the place, and he would have to leave again in a few days. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad, but he also knew that attachment was meaningless, only looking forward.

This time the disease can be said to be the biggest beneficiary, whether it is childhood friends or the best friends in the academy are together, the disease is also a lot more down-to-earth, a few months ago, the disease was still worried about the life after the vicissitudes, and he was very happy to see his bastard master finally open his eyes. Thinking like this, he lay down on the bed that had been made, intending to take a good rest.

————

As the night wore on, many people were already asleep, and such a story was unfolding in a mansion in the royal city.

"The boy has come to the royal city. ”

Gu Xinghe stood up abruptly and couldn't help laughing.

When he left Huayu Town a month ago, he left the people of the Gu family there, and as long as Canglan left the Cape of the Sea, he would follow him and find out his whereabouts. But he didn't expect Canglan to go directly to the royal city, which was undoubtedly good news among good news for Gu Xinghe.

"It's good, it saves me a lot of trouble. Gu Xinghe said, "Do you know the purpose of his trip?"

"It seems to be to register as an official swordsmith. ”

"So it's been a few days, where did he stay?"

"A hostel in the south of the city. ”

"Very good!" Gu Xinghe looked out of the door viciously, "I can't do anything about you at the Cape of the Sea, but in the royal city, I see where you can go." ”

The servant asked, "What about the big boss?"

Gu Xinghe's face sank, "Don't let him know, do it secretly." This time, I must get heavenly work. I can't let him ruin my good deeds. ”
