Hearing the cardamom girl's words, Situ Jin looked at the girl's waist and saw that there was indeed a three-foot short sword hanging from the girl's waist. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the entire sword was within the scabbard, the two golden dragon carvings on the scabbard alone made the short sword look imposing. And the sapphire the size of a dragon's eye set on the hilt of the sword, with Situ Jin's vision and knowledge, he could see at a glance that the sapphire was a superb gem.

I see! Situ Jin's heart turned slightly, and he quickly understood what was going on. It seems that what is about to be staged in front of him will be a murderous and treasure show.

Just as his mind flashed, he saw that the three young men and women running in front of him had slowed down their pace out of breath, and the girl in the middle of the three had clenched her silver teeth and her pretty face was flushed, obviously tired.

The girl first looked around, and saw that there was indeed no way to escape, and said to the two boys beside her while running: "Bessie, Dart, there is no way ahead anyway, why don't we go back and fight with those people, maybe there is still a chance of life!"

After listening to the girl's words, the long-faced and small-eared boy on the left side of the girl said: "Sister Shirley, the strength of those people is not only one level higher than ours, and we have no chance of winning against them at all!

As the boy spoke, his eyes glanced at the short sword on the girl's waist, and the implication was already very obvious.

At this time, another tall boy with long hair immediately echoed: "Yes, Sister Shirley, although the sword is valuable, you also have to have a life! Why don't you give them the sword first?"

After the two boys finished speaking, the girl suddenly stopped, looked at the two boys and said angrily: "What nonsense are you two talking about, others don't know about this sword, don't you two know it yet?"

"This sword is the heirloom sword of our Jocelyn family! Before we left this time, my grandfather handed this sword into my hands in front of all the clansmen, and at that time he personally told me that the sword is in the people, and the sword is dead! You two were also present at the time, didn't you hear?"

The girl's footsteps stopped, and the two boys had to stop, seeing that the girl was angry, the two were speechless.

Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer, the tall boy finally spoke: "Sister Shirley, I know that this sword is quite valuable, but if we don't hand over this sword now, the three of us will die!"

The girl was already extremely angry, but when she heard the tall boy's words, the girl said angrily: "Hmph! You two are really useless! As a man, you are not as brave as a woman at a critical time! You still want to go to the mainland academy with me like this? I think you should go home as soon as possible, so as not to embarrass the people of my clan!"

Although the girl's tone was very bad, the two boys listened to her words, but neither of them showed a look of dissatisfaction or resentment, but some of them refused to speak anymore.

Speaking of which, these two men and one girl are actually from the same family, the difference is that the girl is the direct child of the family, while the two boys are in the side of the family.

However, despite this, these two boys also have a very detached status in the family, not for any other reason, but because these two boys have a good talent in swordsmanship, so they are also vigorously cultivated by the family.

The family is like this, and when it develops to a certain extent, those things of blood kinship gradually fade away. Because of its large population, the extended family itself is like a small kingdom.

If the small kingdom wants to develop, it must continue to have talents, whether these people are descendants or collaterals, as long as you are a member of this family, and you can prove that you have strength, then the family will value you and cultivate you.

On the contrary, if your strength is not enough, no matter how noble your identity and pure blood are, you will only be put aside and gradually neglected by your family.

For the sake of the family's interests and for the family's development, this is necessary.

A person who has no strength or ability, no matter how pure his bloodline is, if he is forcibly promoted to a high position, he will not be recognized by other people in the clan, and maybe he will be killed. It's not a trivial matter for him to die alone, and if he buries the whole family because of his stupidity, it will be too late to say anything.

Therefore, these practices that seem to be very cold-blooded and ruthless in small families are the most important guarantee for the continued development of the family!

Speaking of the two men and one woman, this girl is lucky, not only as a family descendant, but also very strong in the entire family of the younger generation. The girl's name is Shirley, and the two boys with a long face named Bessie and the tall one named Dart, these three are the top three in the family.

The reason why the three of them left the family this time was because Shirley wanted to go to the Mainland Academy for some training, and she was afraid that she would have no one to take care of a girl outside, and Shirley's grandfather, who was the contemporary head of the Jocelyn family, specially asked Bessie and Dart to accompany Shirley out.

On the one hand, it is to take care of Shirley, and on the other hand, it is also to let these two young juniors take this opportunity to exercise outside.

No matter how powerful an eagle is, it can't be called an eagle without a test of life and death, and no matter how powerful a tiger is, it can't be called a fierce tiger without a fight. Although the strength of the three of them is still outstanding in the family, if they don't go through some external polishing, it is still unknown whether they can take charge of themselves and really be used by the family in the future.

It is good for young people to have strength, but if they don't have the heart to match their strength, they may be ruined at some point. There are many such examples throughout the ages. It was because of this factor that Bessie and Dart were sent out together.

The two also knew that this was the performance of the family's respect for them, so they secretly swore in their hearts when they left the house, first, to do their best to protect Shirley's safety, and second, to learn their skills outside with an open mind, so as to live up to the careful cultivation of their ancestors to them.

Unexpectedly, the ideal is plump, but the reality is skinny. Three young boys and girls who have never left the house have no idea of the sinister nature of the outside world.

Not long after leaving home, they were deceived into taking away their burdens, let's just talk about the past two days! Because the Beast Mountain was also the only way for them to go to the Continental Academy, the three of them had to choose to climb over this huge mountain range composed of many mountain ranges.

Young people have never seen the outside world, and they always think how great they are.

Although they knew that there were many fierce demonic beasts on the Beast Mountain, thinking of the extremely dangerous Continental Academy they were about to go to, the three of them decided to take the opportunity of crossing the Beast Mountain to have a good experience on this mountain range first, kill a few more demonic beasts and accumulate some actual combat experience, which could be regarded as making some preparations in advance for going to the killing field in the "compound".
