Today is the day of the freshman report. Jiang Chen got up early in the morning, freshened himself up, and prepared to go to the Thirteenth Middle School at sea with a slightly nervous mood.

Xiao Hachi was originally lying in his hat, but he was watched by countless people all the way, and he had to always be wary of Xiao Bachi speaking in a hurry, so he simply put it in his sweatshirt pocket again.

"If you talk casually in a place where there are outsiders, you will never be able to eat sweet and sour fish again!" yesterday he made a very solemn threat like this, so today's Xiaoba was extremely well-behaved and dozed off in Jiang Chen's arms.

There were a lot of people at the beginning of the school year, and when they came to the gate of the 13th Middle School, many parents had gathered to see off the students. Because it was forced to live on campus, everyone moved up and down with large bags, which made Jiang Chen, who put all his luggage in the Qiankun ring and traveled lightly, a little out of place. And he always couldn't help but look at those new students, whenever he thought that one of them was a child of a certain immortal cultivation family, he still felt very amazing.

When you walk into the school gate, you will see a big sign guiding the direction of registration for new students, and there are volunteer seniors at the door handing out leaflets printed with the registration process. So Jiang Chen followed the crowd and moved forward.

The first step is to register, get your student ID stamped, then get your dormitory keys and new semester instruction booklet, and then go to the third teaching building to pick up the new books and uniforms for the start of school...... Well?

A shadow fell on the flyer that Jiang Chen was reading, and at some point, a person stood in front of him. This is a boy wearing the uniform of the thirteenth middle school, with a soft face and a gentle smile: "Is it classmate Chen Qi?"

This is the first time that a stranger has called him the name Chen Qi, but fortunately, he has dragged Xiaoba to practice many times at home, and nodded reflexively: "I am." Then he was surprised again: "Senior Zhu Yuanqing?"

The boy on the other side seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then resumed his polite and gentle smile, "First meeting." I forgot to introduce myself, I am this year's freshman guide, a sophomore in high school, Zhu Yuanning. Looks like you've already met my brother. ”

Jiang Chen was very surprised, and after a closer look, he found that there were still some differences between the two brothers of the Zhu family, Zhu Yuanqing looked more outgoing and lively, and this Zhu Yuanning gave people a more mature and stable feeling.

Then he nodded: "I have seen Senior Yuanqing in Tianzheng Stationery before, I am sorry to admit my mistake." ”

Zhu Yuanning smiled disappreciatively: "It's okay, it's usually difficult to tell the two of us brothers for the first time." ”

I don't know why, the person in front of him made people feel like a spring breeze, which made Jiang Chen's originally nervous mood gradually relax: "Trouble senior." Zhu Yuanning nodded slightly, and walked in front first: "Just call me Yuanning." ”

Along the way, Zhu Yuanning seemed polite and enthusiastic, and from time to time introduced him to some of the school's scenery, humanities, history and culture, etc., but the content was of course different from what ordinary students knew.

"It's this rockery by the lake, and it's still a place of cultivation and happiness for five hundred years. Elder Ziche once pursued a female fairy friend here, and smashed the Songshan Mountain Stone here, threatening that the East China Sea would not dry up, and this stone would not rot, and he would not give up for a day. Later, Boyang College chose to build a school here, and President Wang simply asked craftsmen to carve this rock into a rockery to decorate the campus. ”

Jiang Chen always felt that the name Elder Ziche was very familiar, and couldn't help blurting out: "That's the one, the Elder Ziche who bought the fake dome flag?"

The smile on the corner of Zhu Yuanning's mouth was a little bigger: "Yes, it is that Elder Ziche, his various deeds are widely spread in the immortal cultivation world, and when Principal Wang was chiseling mountain stones, he also came to the school to make trouble." ”

Jiang Chen laughed: "This senior's temperament seems to be also famous. ”

Zhu Yuanning smiled silently, and continued to introduce the next scene: "This is the largest cypress tree in the school, it is said that the tree is more than 3,000 years old, and it is said that it was incarnated by a predecessor in the fairy world, and it is called 'Taiyuan' in ancient books." This predecessor was the Taibu of King Wen of Zhou, and he was a master of the Immortal Technique. According to the record in "A Brief History of the Great Dao": One day King Wen of Zhou asked him: 'What is the Tao?', and Master Taiyuan replied: 'The breeze is pine and cypress, the morning and twilight glow, the black bow rotates, the grass grows apricot yellow, life and death are separated, joys and sorrows are all Taos. King Wen of Zhou asked again: 'Zhuang Hui still doesn't know what fish enjoys, not pines and cypresses, not morning and dusk, not black bow grass apricots, how can he be evil?' When Master Taiyuan heard this, he only felt enlightened, stroked his palms and sighed: 'In this case, when I am a pine and cypress for a thousand years, a thousand years of morning and twilight, and a thousand years of black bow grass and apricots, An Neng will not be enlightened!' So he smiled and sighed: "Enlightenment is gone! Enlightenment is gone!" Legend has it that he eventually turned into this ancient cypress tree, watching the millennium of time, waiting for the day of enlightenment. That's why everyone calls this tree 'Taiyuan cypress', and it is precisely because of this cypress tree that this place has become a famous cultivation blessing. ”

Jiang Chen also felt awe-struck when he heard this: "The realm of this Taiyuan Master is really unattainable for ordinary people." ”

Zhu Yuanning nodded: "Yes, three thousand years ago, people often said that it was an era when the Dao was superb and superior to others, but today's cultivators have declined a lot. I don't know if it's an illusion, Jiang Chen felt that there seemed to be a lot of regret in the other party's eyes.

chatting all the way, the atmosphere was very harmonious, Jiang Chen found that whether it was Zhu Yuanqing or Zhu Yuanning, they all gave people a very comfortable feeling, around this kind of person, even if it was the first time they met, they would not feel cramped or embarrassed, because they could always find the topic very naturally, and their attitude also made people get close unconsciously.

"It's here. Jiang Chen was still immersed in the various legends and stories told by Zhu Yuanning, only to hear what the other party said suddenly.

Only then did he realize that the two had arrived at the registration place, where there were many people, lined up in several long lines, and the three teachers sitting behind the table stamped each student's ID card one by one. Because there are ordinary students, and there are many parents who are worried that their children will not be able to take care of themselves, and the room, which is not very large, is even more crowded. After waiting in line for a long time, when he finally handed over his student ID, a person in the next team accidentally bumped into him when a person passed by him.

Subconsciously turned around, and couldn't find who the person who bumped into him was, but he saw a figure in the crowd.

The man was dressed very strangely, wearing a sweatshirt, the hood was deeply pressed, his face could not be seen clearly, and he was wearing a huge mask, his figure was very tall, and this dress was also very conspicuous in the crowd. Somehow, Jiang Chen just felt that this figure was very familiar, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't remember which acquaintance had such a style. However, before he could take a closer look, the man had already disappeared into the crowd.

......

Soon Jiang Chen forgot about this little episode.

The next step was to collect the dormitory keys, which were distributed and guided by volunteers made up of students at the school. Because of the venue, several tents were erected near the student dormitory, and some students wore bright orange hats representing volunteers and handed out keys. Zhu Yuanqing led Jiang Chen over, and a petite girl with a sweet smile received them very warmly: "Welcome to the 13th Middle School, please show me your campus card, and I will help you find the dormitory key." ”

The beautiful senior sister always makes people feel very bright, Jiang Chen patiently watched her look for her among several large boxes of numbered dormitory keys...... Looking for ...... Find ......

I rummaged through his student number for a long time, but I couldn't seem to find it, the cute senior sister's anxious head was a little sweaty, and Zhu Yuanning reminded him very timely when he saw this: "He is a special student." ”

"Oh!" the little girl slapped her head exaggeratedly: "Blame me, blame me, I didn't see clearly." Then he took out a few thin paper bags from the drawer and spread them on the table: "Oh, take it yourself!"

What is the situation? Jiang Chen picked up the bag with Chen Qi's name on it and looked at Zhu Yuanning with a confused expression. When he walked to a place where no one was, the other party smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you that you were still arranged to be a musical instrument specialty." ”

"Me?" pointed to his nose, his face full of incredulity.

Zhu Yuanning looked at his expression and smiled: "That's the case, because we don't attend classes with ordinary students half the time, so for ordinary students, we are all 'special students', and we have to participate in special training every afternoon." ”

Jiang Chen stretched out his hands helplessly and said: "Then you can't arrange a musical instrument specialty for me, I don't know any musical instruments." ”

Zhu Yuanning: "You can learn." Most of them are arranged with artistic specialties, because if it is a sports class, it is necessary to train on the playground, and it is difficult to explain the specific situation. I didn't know where to take out a document and looked at it: "Oh, you're a special blower." ”

"Xun?" This really stumped him: "I don't have this instrument......"

"Please don't worry about that," still a very kind smile, "the school will help you solve the relevant matters of the specialty." ”

Although Zhu Yuanning's expression made people feel very relieved, Jiang Chen was still puzzled, why did he want to take classes with ordinary high school students? After all, cultivating immortals and cultivating the Tao didn't sound like there was no need to study mathematics, physics, chemistry, politics, history, and geography. However, because his current identity should be "Chen Qi" who grew up in a family of immortal cultivators, he didn't really ask such common-sense questions.

At this time, Zhu Yuanning suddenly asked: "There is something moving in your clothes all the time, and it is inconvenient to ask, but there is really no way not to pay attention to it......"

Jiang Chen reacted at this time, Xiao Ba, who had been sleeping in his arms, should be awake at this time, and kept twisting in his sweatshirt, he was used to taking this guy with him everywhere he went these days, but in the eyes of others, it did look weird. He was embarrassed to scratch his head, pulled out the eight feet and held them in his arms, and said helplessly: "This, can you bring it?"

Seeing that he took out a little white cat from his arms, Zhu Yuanning stared at it: "You can bring it." Is this your contract beast?"

Xiaoba heard the three words of contract beast and bared his teeth.

Jiang Chen nodded and pressed the eight feet back into his clothes. Zhu Yuanning seemed very curious: "I've never seen such a demon beast, I don't know what kind it is?"

Even Hachi himself can't say anything about this matter, but he can only say that he is majestic and powerful...... was smiling bitterly and didn't know how to answer well, but fortunately, Zhu Yuanning didn't continue to ask, but just smiled and replied by himself: "It's okay if it's inconvenient to say, it's me who is abrupt." ”

Just like the way Zhu Yuanning and Xia Mai spoke, it seems that these people from the Xiuxian family will speak with a little bit of ancient Chinese in their speech, I don't know if it is because of the family environment. Jiang Chen thought that he should pay attention to some terms in this regard in the future, and it seemed that there was still a long way to go to integrate into this circle.

"This is your dormitory. I don't know how long I walked, until I came to a remote student dormitory group in the southwest corner of the campus, and Zhu Yuanning's footsteps finally stopped. Jiang Chen looked at the surrounding scenery, the green area of the school was very large, except for the pavilions and water pavilions, there were some flowers and trees, as well as lakes and rockeries, and Zhu Yuanning led him to a very small courtyard group hidden behind a bamboo forest. Because the overall architectural style of the 13th Middle School is biased towards the garden style, there are no high-rise buildings, at most two floors. The dormitory provided to Jiang Chen's current class of students is a courtyard composed of several independent one-story buildings, hidden behind the verdant bamboo forest, faintly unclear.

When I think of the place where I got the dormitory key, there is also a large student dormitory building, which is next to the teaching building, and it is not spacious, although it is all antique, but it is still a two-story building like a modern park. And he glanced out the window, and the accommodation environment was an ordinary four-person dormitory, presumably a place for ordinary students to stay.

And here, there are two groups of zigzag water courtyards, which are surrounded by several Xuanting covered bridges, pine forest lawn, Pinggang distant mountains, bamboo dock curved water, it is a unique scene. Jiang Chen even had the illusion that he might not have come to study, but to go on vacation.

Jiang Chen felt more and more that in this school, immortal cultivators and ordinary students were treated differently.

Thinking of this, he sighed: "The dormitory environment here is very good. ”

Zhu Yuanning explained: "In fact, the main reason is that I am afraid that my usual practice or refining will make too much noise and make noise to the students in the teaching area, and at the same time, many people will bring monsters and the like when they study, and it is not convenient to live in a too narrow environment." ”

It seemed to make sense, Jiang Chen nodded to show that he understood very much, and suddenly remembered: "Senior, I haven't received the book and school uniform yet." He pointed to the flyer he had received when he first entered the school.

Glancing at the freshman guidelines on the flyer, Zhu Yuanning smiled: "No, your books and school uniforms are quite special, and the school has helped you put them in the dormitory early in the morning." After that, he thought about it again and confirmed that there was no omission: "Well, that's all, you can rest first, and I'll send you here." ”

After thanking Zhu Yuanning, Jiang Chen took out the dormitory key and studied it.

To be honest, this key is very inconvenient, it is a very antique huge copper key, and there is a wooden sign hanging on it, and the wooden sign reads: Listen to the rain pavilion. How to say it, this key looks like it's middle two and unsafe, and the wooden sign still has a kind of sauna flavor, which is really nothing but good-looking.

These two water courtyards are actually not small, among which the buildings and pavilions are zigzag, it is really not easy to find the right way, and one thing is more strange is that in the campus map he received from the freshman reception volunteers, there is no dormitory where he lives at all, the map is drawn, this piece is a bamboo forest, and the edge is the courtyard wall.

But fortunately, after twisting and turning, I finally found this so-called "Listening to the Rain Pavilion". In fact, it is a pavilion with three rooms and a few plantain trees in the courtyard that look old. One of the rooms was completely empty, the other looked like a kitchen, and the last and largest room contained enough beds and furniture for two people.

Tsk, it's just a hot spring away from being a resort.

The main house is divided into two spaces, the left and right, and the outer room is a common bathroom, in which all the furniture is still in the antique style, and the bed is even the ancient kind of pull-out bed placed against the wall. He looked at the bathroom with trepidation, but fortunately, the sanitary environment was still modern, and it was a huge wooden bathtub that made him feel particularly unacceptable: he felt that if he sprinkled flower petals in it, he could instantly become the protagonist of an ancient romance novel.

When Jiang Chen entered the room, another person had already arrived first, and he saw a boy in a sky blue striped coarse cloth gown laying out his carved bed, and the other party was using the kind of baby pink sheets that looked very girly—not to mention how inconsistent that scene was.

After carefully recalling the previous lecture, Jiang Chen confirmed that he had never seen such a boy that time.

"Ahem" cleared his throat, the other party seemed to notice his presence, looked back at him, and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Chen Qi, and I also live here." "Hold out your hand.

Unexpectedly, the other party just hummed softly, and didn't want to stretch out his hand to respond to him, which made the scene more embarrassing for a while. Fortunately, the other party seemed to be aware of this, and squeezed out two words for a while: "Jingyu." With that, he nodded at him and went back to cover his quilt with the same pink quilt.

Jiang Chen didn't understand the meaning of his words, but the other party really didn't say much, and he didn't look like he had any desire to continue communicating with him.

Jiang Chen, who was left to dry, had no choice but to follow his example and start making his bed. Hachi jumped out of his arms at this time, and walked with his head held high in the dormitory, looking around with a pair of green eyes. There are also two comments in his mouth: "It's okay, make do with meow!"

Jing Yu, who was in the same room, was very calm, and didn't pay attention to the talking cat of Bachi at all, just looked at it twice, but didn't ask anything. Who knew that the eight-foot guy jumped onto the other party's bed with a familiar look: "Junior, do you have a small fish?"

After all, the other party has been acting relatively cold, Jiang Chen was very worried that the other party was impatient by Bachi, and was about to bring back the fluffy ball, but he heard Jing Yu say very simply: "Yes."

...... Is there really one?

I saw that the other party took out two small dried fish from a wooden Qiankun ring on his wrist, and meowed around the other party with a greedy eight feet. Jiang Chen noticed at this time that the other party's Qiankun ring seemed to be much larger than his own, and it seemed to be made of two branches of unknown trees, the branches were slender, the texture was simple, and it was blood-red, and it was set on the opponent's wrist. From the point of view of appearance, this Qiankun ring is not only much bigger than their own, but also looks very valuable.

Just as Jiang Chen was studying the Qiankun ring in the whale's hand, a sound suddenly came from outside the window.

The sound rumbled, like the sound of a wooden-wheeled carriage in ancient times, and it was so loud that it seemed like a whole convoy of horses rushing by. Jiang Chen felt a little irritated by the shock in his brain, and just wanted to block his ears.

"Xiaobai. Looking out the window, Jing Yu spit out these two words. As soon as the end of the white word fell, a large white bird flew in through the open window, its whole body was snow-white, but its eyes were blood-red. The feathers on the top of the head spread out like a small fan, and the beak was extremely pointed, curved like a hook. It stands on the shoulders of the whale, with its head held high, and it is majestic. Incredibly, the noisy carriage of the horse was created when the bird flipped its wings. Jing Yu slapped the other party's wings and said to the big white bird, "Don't make noise." Then he gave the small dried fish in his hand to the big bird.

Jiang Chen looked at this big bird very familiarly, and always felt that it was very similar to the big white parrot raised by Wang Ziteng's grandfather, so he whispered: "Cockatiel?" The other party was silent for a while with complicated eyes, and said, "Ghost car." ”

Before Jiang Chen could remember what a ghost car was, he saw Xiao Hachi suddenly pounce towards the big bird in the air. The big bird had dried fish in its mouth, and its wings flew far away from Xiaoba, and its eyes looked at it vigilantly.

Jiang Chen hurriedly grabbed Xiao Ba by the back of the neck and dragged him back to his side.

Look at the contract beast that people brought, then take it out Dora Feng, why is this one you bring is a second goods that has no score on your own strength......
