Chapter 009: Qingding Terrace

"Dang!"

"Dang!"

......

The morning bell rang twelve times in succession, and the aftermath lingered, pouring into the windows through the night that had not yet dissipated, "buzzing" in the ears of thousands of unicorns, easily driving away their endless sleep.

Dawn has just ended, the sky has risen the white of the fish's belly, the morning light is faint, and the Qilin Academy after a long night has completely woken up and started a day's morning repair.

Lynch was also one of them, and the fourth team of the Tiger Battalion set off from the Golden Sword Tower to the wet bluestone paved Jiuding Square, only to see the entire nine huge mountain platforms built against the mountains standing quietly in the fleeting night, and a circle of steep spiral stairs hanging outside leading to the top.

The first thing to do every day is to climb up the spiral ladder, bathe in the morning light, swallow the air and cultivate the body, all year round, wind and rain, cold and summer.

......

"Whew!"

After reaching the top, Gao Bo looked at the pale outline of the mountain in the distance, took a deep breath, and then exhaled a long breath with a comfortable expression.

This is the third time he has repeated a grade as an old student, and it is effortless to climb this high platform, his face is not red, he is not panting, and he is almost not sweating, unlike other children, who are so tired that they can't even stand on their feet.

This is the Qingding platform, as the name suggests, the platform is placed in the nine tripods of the Qingding, is a three-legged and two-eared cyan giant tripod, for the round tripod.

According to historical records, more than 4,000 years ago, the early summer was established, and the world was divided into nine states. In the long history, Jiuding has long been lost, I don't know its whereabouts, Jiuding on the Jiuding platform, all are imitations.

The current Xia Kingdom has a territory that is dozens of times that of early summer, with a total of 36 counties and 72 prefectures, a total of 108 prefectures, and is one of the nine superpowers in the world today.

After the Qilinzi grow up, they will go to various places in the Xia Kingdom and even around the world to serve in various capacities. The reason why Emperor Tianwu recast Jiuding and placed it on these nine mountain platforms as the original cultivation place of Qilinzi may be to let them remember the fundamentals and not forget their bloodline!

The purple air rises, and the red sun rises.

The first rays of sunlight diffuse from the east, dispel the floating mist, and spread onto the majestic Jiuding platform.

After a short rest, the children of the fourth team sat down around Qingding, hugged Yuan Shouyi, and began to practice according to the most basic breathing method in "Kirin Musashi".

Although Gao Bo is an old qualification, he is so familiar with this kind of thing that he can't be more familiar with it, so he has to join it.

He walked to the exquisite jade railing and looked down, and after looking for a while, he saw a small figure comparable to an ant, climbing up the spiral staircase on the second floor of the high platform, pausing step by step, and the speed was extremely slow.

It was none other than Lynch, the fourth team of the people who started to climb up together, and he was still struggling at the foot of the stage when the others had already reached the top......

"Alas. ”

Gao Bo sighed lightly.

He sympathized with this weak Qilin descendant, but he was helpless and couldn't help.

......

At the end of the day, one by one, the energetic, tiger-like unicorns stepped down one after another, and Lynch was able to climb to the fourth floor, less than half of the height.

"The sick Kirin is really a disgrace to the Kirin clan!

"I don't understand, this guy can't even pass the first level, but he can actually become a unicorn? My second brother is so good, he passes every level faster than me, just because he didn't ring the white bell, he can't be a unicorn by saying anything!"

"Don't forget, people are the last unicorn in the world! Don't say anything else, just look at the Lin family's ancestors' accumulated merits, is it appropriate to make an exception!"

"Accumulated meritorious deeds? Our Baimei clan belongs to the ranks of the founders, and the merits are not small, and the Qilin Academy has never made an exception for us!"

"That's it, no matter how high the merit is, it wasn't made by him, so why do you want to be special?"

"Sick seedling, get out of our fourth team!"

"Phew, don't be ashamed, go home and die!"

“......”

Lynch cowered on the edge of the spiral staircase, listening to these words drift past his ears with the sound of dense footsteps, his head bowed, and he did not dare to raise it at all.

There are a lot of people who scold him, some people feel that it is not enjoyable, and spit directly on him, and some people even can't help it, and slap him on the head, anyway, he can't see who hit him.

Gao Bo had a heart, and patted him on the shoulder as he walked by, as he comforted him, but he didn't notice it, just trembled to himself.

The first few days were fine, but as the days went by, nine out of ten members of the fourth team began to dislike the sick and weak Lynch, and gave him the nickname of "sick seedling", wanton humiliation.

They are selected one in a thousand miles, more than half of them are the children of martial artists with inheritance roots, and many of them are Qilinzi families that have been passed down from generation to generation. Their respective families are active in the land of the Xia Kingdom, and they can be said to be the true rulers of this land, and each of them is more prosperous than the Qilin family, which only has a single seedling left, so no one will really be afraid of him.

Although Lynch is young and can't remember things in a daze, he also understands his situation. Many people say that he will not live to be ten years old, and even if he can live past the age of ten, I am afraid that he will not live to the age where he can give birth to a unicorn bloodline. Inherited for thousands of years, the once incomparably brilliant Qilin clan is afraid that it will end in his generation.

The reason why he was sent to the Qilin Academy Palace was to cultivate hard, strive to prolong his life, and leave the only remaining bloodline for the Qilin clan.

What a dazzling word for the unicorn clan! And how unworthy of him as the last unicorn......

Lin Menglong was once the last unicorn in the world, and he suffered from black heart disease soon after birth, but unlike Lynch, he was brilliant and eye-catching since he was a child, and he was not weaker than children of the same age at all.

In the same unicorn selection, he broke through seven levels in a row, and finally rang the white bell of the white stone, maybe not the fastest, but he became a unicorn in a dignified manner.

Ordinary Qilinzi, ten years of hard cultivation, may not be able to be upgraded to the seventh rank, Lin Menglong only took five years to graduate from the Qilin Academy, joined the prestigious Black Flag Army, repeatedly made military exploits, and became the captain of the flag.

After becoming an adult, he married Lei Weitong, the best woman of the Thunder Clan, and gave birth to a blockbuster Lin Lei, as well as a dragon and phoenix fetus that shocked the world.

When it comes to Lin Menglong, everyone who knows him praises him, and the people of Xia never hesitate to praise him, calling him the starting point of the revival of the Qilin clan, even comparable to the last heavenly warrior Lin Cheng!

Father is a real unicorn, and he is not, he is just a sick child who is weaker than the weak!

Unlike Lin Lei, let alone Lin Feng'er and Lin Huang'er, he has never been given high hopes, so he has never had the ambition to revitalize the Qilin clan.

But fate is impermanent, providence makes people, Brother Bai Lei, and the lovely dragon and phoenix twin brothers and sisters were all killed by gangsters, but the most useless one survived.

Whenever he was depressed, he would always think of his father's last words to himself on his deathbed.

"Qi'er!"

When his father talked to him, he always started like this, his voice was very loud and thick, but it was so gentle and loving, but since Bai Lei, Feng'er, and Huang'er were killed, this beginning was more like a sigh.

"The Father is dying. Yes, I'm dying, I'm going to see the ancestors! Go and see the ancestors of our clan, Tianwu Emperor Lin Ze, Empress Ye Xuan, Mighty King Lin Xiu, the ancestors of the Golden Age, the ancestors of the Silver Age, and the ancestors of the Black Iron Age...... And the last Heavenly Warrior Lin Cheng ......"

"Although my father's life is short, I have never been lazy, I have been chasing the back of my ancestors, I really did my best, I should be able to go to them calmly......, right?

When he said this, Lin Menglong cried, he really cried, for the first time in his life, and the only time in his life, he saw his father shed tears.

He knew that his father had a strong life, and when he was young, his clan died of illness one after another, and he was lonely and helpless, and he supported the glory of the Qilin clan alone; when he was growing up, he suffered under the erosion of illness and encountered countless difficulties and obstacles...... These blows have never broken him, and even Brother Bai Lei and the dragon and phoenix fetus were killed by gangsters, he did not shed even a single tear. On his deathbed, he wept.

He remembered very well that Lin Menglong choked up and said the last sentence, "Qi'er, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for you, I shouldn't have brought you into this world......

At that time, his mother Lei Weitong was wiping his tears with tears, he seemed to have something to say, looked at Lei Weitong, shouted her name, couldn't pick it up in one breath, and went forever.

"You weren't supposed to be brought into this world......"

These were the last words my father said to himself. He was born useless, he will only be spurned by people, and he will only tarnish the glory of the Qilin clan, as others scolded, it is better to go back and wait for death!

Lynch is no stranger to the word "death" because he almost died when he was born, and now he is still alive and dying.

He actually doesn't care about any family inheritance, what Qilin blood, what Great Xia glory, the only thing he cares about is his mother. She has lost her husband, lost her eldest son, and lost her dragon and phoenix child, if she loses her only child, she may be very sad and sad, right?

"Live! Strive to live! Even if you don't want to be yourself, you have to live tenaciously for your mother!"

It had been a long time since the footsteps and invective had disappeared, and Lynch looked up, wiped the sticky saliva from his head and neck with his sleeve, and saw that he was the only one sitting on the spiral staircase.

Of course, there was another person under the mountain platform, an old man with an iron ruler in his hand, who was sitting on a chair and looking down at a book, it was none other than Graybeard, the supervisor of the fourth team. He would keep an eye on it until Lynch climbed onto the stage and finished his morning meditation for the day.

......

It was almost noon, and Lynch stopped and stopped, and finally reached the top.

He leaned on Qingding, breathed for a long time, and began to spit out and cultivate according to the method that Graybeard had personally taught him.

It is a good place to watch the mountain scenery here, and in the distance to the east, there stands a big mountain covered with clouds and mist, which is undulating and lush, like a fairy deer galloping in the clouds.

It is Lushan, a small branch of the dragon vein Canglong Ridge across the Xia Kingdom, the closest Lingshan resort to the Xia Capital City, and the forbidden land of the Qilin clan.

According to legend, the first prime minister of the Xia Kingdom and the ancestor of the nine-tailed fox clan, Ling Humou, once united with the world's warlocks to change the feng shui pattern of Lushan, so that this mountain evolved into a small dragon vein around the dragon vein Canglong Ridge, and the spiritual temperament of the mountain was all poured into the summer capital city, and the first was the Qilin Palace.

One of the main purposes of this is to assist the cultivation of Qilinzi.

The cultivation of Qilinzi is different from the general practice of martial arts and strengthening the body, it is a more advanced method of internal cultivation, not everyone can cultivate, only those with special qualifications can. This special qualification, in ancient times, was called an immortal root by cultivators who were called qi refiners......

By practicing martial arts, human beings can achieve the purpose of strengthening their bodies and enhancing their combat power. Through internal cultivation, it can make itself qualitatively transform and become fundamentally stronger. In other words, it is to realize the evolution of the individual, and the ability of all aspects rises to another level.

Regarding the origin of human beings, the general consensus is that it is a product of evolution, and that human civilization is the metamorphosis that occurs after it has evolved to a certain extent.

This evolution comes from generation to generation and takes an extremely long time. And by cultivating the mystical method, human beings can evolve and transform themselves like the former Heavenly Martial Emperor Lin Ze and Thunder Emperor Lei Shuai, so as to obtain enough power to defeat super races such as the Blood Demon Clan and the Wood Immortal Clan.

Lynch concentrated on cultivation, not to obtain any transcendent power, but just to live, even if he could only live for a few more years.
