The sky was clear, and the arrival of the sun dispelled the clouds that had gathered for many days.

From time to time, cicadas chirp from the tall canopy of the trees, announcing the unbearable heat of the weather. The sunlight is reflected on the ground through the gaps between the leaves, creating a kaleidoscope-like shape, which makes people feel a little new for a while.

The surrounding green low vegetation benefits from the huge size of the cedar tree, which inadvertently thrives and flourishes.

The sound of birds chirping in the forest from time to time, the sound of small rodents moving on the ground, and the murmuring of the stream by the roadside all highlight this quiet and peaceful ecological landscape.

......

Under a huge cedar tree, a pair of boys and girls, as well as a strange creature resembling a donkey, are gathering here to rest quietly.

If you look closely, it is Jiawen and his party, and the rest of the strange creature is really weak.

If you open the map given to them by Aunt Li at this time, you will find that they have already left the sphere of influence of Dragon City and entered the outermost part of the Phantom Mountain Range.

If nothing else, they will follow the outer route in the next few days to reach their destination, the Deep Blue Academy, which sits on the Shenlong Sea.

Shenlong Sea, a corner of the vast Endless World Sea, is located in the southeast direction, surrounded by a semicircle of protruding islands around it. It is close to the Sun Shinto Road, so it is a hot environment all year round, if it is paired with the hottest day of the four seasons, it can really be described as a burning river boiling the sea, the steaming water vapor on the sea surface in the hot summer is enough to kill any birds flying from above, and even legend has it that once a giant dragon accidentally strayed into this place, it had to drink here, hence the name Shenlonghai.

However, legends are legends, people's word of mouth is eventually exaggerated, although the sea of steam clouds floating above the Shenlong Sea makes the people here unbearable heat, but there is never a case of death in the sea of clouds.

At the end of the day, the heat rises and the cold falls, so on the only floating island in the Shenlong Sea, Deep Blue, the elite training school of the Civilized Continent, is located here, and the entire island is shrouded in some great powers with elemental protection, so it has formed a natural isolated place here.

Elite talents from all over the world are squeezing their heads to go inside, and this place is known as the best education college in the world, and I think that Jiawen will become one of them in the near future.

......

Under the tree, Jiawen in the sleeping bag opened his eyes quietly, got up and sat cross-legged for a while before he completely woke up.

Speaking of which, the days and nights of the past few days have already exhausted him, let alone the little girl Lucy.

Every day, in addition to eating and sleeping, he is in a hurry, and the whole process has no ups and downs, and Jiawen feels that his brain is about to stiffen except for his body.

Fortunately, the insect repellent and animal repellent given by Aunt Lan Huohuo are very effective, and I haven't worried much about sleeping these days, and I am safe and stable every night.

However, this made Jiawen wonder what Aunt Huo's unique insect repellent powder was made of and why it was so effective. recalled the strange look that Aunt Huo gave to herself, as if she was holding back a smile but holding back her laughter, which made Jiawen is second monk puzzled.

Back to the topic, since that thorough discussion with Aunt Li, Jiawen also roughly understood his direction, and now his first step, of course, what he needs most is strength, and the famous Deep Blue Academy in the continent is naturally the best choice.

Aunt Li also told Jia Wen that she had some friendship with the deputy director there, and it shouldn't be difficult for him to send me in.

That night, Aunt Nai, who had not been seen for a long time, finally appeared, but her face was not as bright as before, and she was full of tiredness.

After a brief understanding of Aunt Li's arrangements for Jiawen's future itinerary, she didn't make a sound, but walked in front of Jiawen alone, straightened his collar for him with her own hands, smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes, and looked at him affectionately like a mother who was about to go on an expedition like a son who couldn't say a thousand words.

In an instant, Jiawen also experienced this emotion without words, a mother's emotion.

didn't say anything, Jiawen's eyes were also slightly red, and then he embarked on this journey between everyone's shouts and warmth.

Just after Jiawen left, Aunt Li and her party were already preparing to leave, and the empty tavern in the city was also submerged in the long river of history, and it was many years before the few people met here again.

......

Got up, just a simple wash in the stream next to it, and turned around Jiawen woke up the big lazy insect Lucy, saying that maybe it was because too many things had happened in the past few days, Lucy seemed to have grown up from an ignorant girl all of a sudden, and the girl who would cry and cry at every turn had grown up unconsciously, and Jiawen, who had observed all this, was not close to feel a little relieved.

Although it may be a pity that the innocent girl in the past will never appear again, you have to admit that the price of growing up is to lose some and gain some.

You can't tell which one is good and which one is bad, but in fact, as long as life does not stop, then it will not stop growing, even if it has to pay some price, but the result of all this will eventually bloom the most beautiful flowers.

......

I have to admit that women have some privileges in some aspects, after a little bit of a morning, Lucy is still in a state of confusion when she just got up, maybe she is too tired these days, and she is a little weak to do anything.

Fortunately, they don't rely entirely on their foot strength, and this is where the newly acquired little brother Ta Ting comes in handy a few days ago.

Ta Ting, the donkey who claimed to be a pioneer knight a few days ago, confided his real name when one person and one donkey were chatting these days. As for the pseudonym of forcible attack, it was only given by him when he saw that he was thin and weak, in order to make Jiawen not underestimate himself, although in the end he still underestimated it, and when Jiawen heard this reason, he almost laughed and didn't breathe.

came back, what Jiawen didn't expect was that the donkey looked weak and couldn't help but have such a domineering name, but the silver gun candle head was useless.

In the past few days, he shouted tired after not walking a few steps on the road, and sometimes he had to rely on Jiawen to lead him to walk, which simply disgraced their donkeys' faces.

But if Lucy sat on the side, the thing immediately had a different expression, as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, jumping up and down as if the dead look just now was completely pretended.

Having said that, the reason why Ta Ting was willing to follow them was completely because he was attracted by Jiawen's cooking skills.

Jiawen didn't know what he had eaten before, a simple grass salad could make this donkey cry bitterly, sighing that this was the best thing in the world, and he also pestered Jiawen with a dead face and said that he wanted to be his mount, not five insurances and one housing fund, just three meals full.

It's SB to have a cheap advantage, Jiawen thinks that it's better than nothing, and besides, it's not impossible to eat more than one person, and this donkey is quite angry with him.

So for countless days and nights in the future, Jiawen stared at the belly like a thunderous sow and hated why he made such a decision today.
