Chapter Twenty-Five: The Barren Plains
On the open field, Lin Silong's horse galloped, all the way to the northeast.
Along the way, he couldn't help but think about the bits and pieces after meeting Hua Susu, and after a long time, he silently buried his complicated feelings for her in his heart.
The cultivators in Rongcheng thought that he followed the Hua family sisters in order to squeeze into that circle to compete for fame and fortune, but how did he know that those things had never appeared in his eyes.
He didn't plan to go back to the Warcraft Forest, but was going to go to the City of the School Garden, although the world was so big, he could choose a lot of places.
But since he has cultivated his spiritual power and wants to go further to become a strong cultivator, he can only go there. Only when you arrive in the city of school gardens can you get better cultivation techniques and cultivate to a higher and deeper realm.
Although some big families and sects will also recruit disciples to teach, once they join there, they need to work for it for a long time, which is equivalent to signing a deed of sale. For Lin Si, this kind of free place of the academy was obviously more suitable for him.
After last night's incident, he deeply realized that in this world, strength is the most reliable thing.
The sky and the earth are boundless, the fields are vast, the horses are galloping, the wind is howling, and he only feels a burst of pleasure.
Along the way, he passed through several cities, countless villages and towns, and also ate and drank and slept in the wilderness.
He never stopped practicing spiritual power, sitting on horseback and still absorbing the spiritual energy in the wilderness. Slowly accumulating thin lines to fill in another circle pattern.
Five days later, looking at the yellow, turbid and rolling river in front of him, which was hundreds of zhang wide, Lin Si, who had read the "History of the War of the Six Kingdoms in the Southeast", knew that the Lanjiang River, the border between the eastern part of the Yue Kingdom and the Qingchuan Kingdom, was here.
I actually ran here.,It seems to be far away from the city of the school park.。 Since he only knew the general direction, and he had spent most of the time cultivating along the way, he had unknowingly run in the wrong direction, and came to the easternmost part of the Moon Country, and then he would go to the Qingchuan Country.
Although there has been no major war between the Moon Kingdom and the Qingchuan Kingdom in the past ten years, the harassment on the border is still continuous, and this area is not peaceful. However, these battles have nothing to do with Lin Si.
Reluctantly turned around and turned to the north, Lin Si set off again. One day later, he entered the barren plains of the eastern part of the Moon Country.
The soil of this plain is not suitable for growing crops, except for wild grass.
After so many days of traveling, the horse under his crotch is not a good horse, although he has rested with supplies when passing through some towns on the way, but at this moment in this vast wilderness, this horse is still almost unable to hold on.
Lin Si had no choice but to dismount and lead it on foot.
When will this be there?,Don't let me go to the school city.,There's already been an assessment!
After leading the horse for more than ten miles in the overgrown wilderness, there was no shadow of a person or a house. Lin Si, who had just arrived in the outside world of the Warcraft Forest, finally felt dazed.
And he didn't expect this wasteland to be so desolate, and there was not much food on his body, so he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to last a day.
It's boring, even if a monster suddenly jumps out and fights now!" he thought boredly.
Lin Si's troubles didn't last long, just when he was slandering in his heart, a convoy gradually came from the south behind him.
At the front of the convoy were five or six horses exploring the way, and on the horses sat samurai with swords and spears dressed as warriors, and behind them were four or five carriages. Looking at the style of the carriage, it should be filled with people, not goods. Around and behind the carriage were dozens of samurai.
Looks like he's still a big man!
Lin Si did not have stage fright, but stood in place and waited for the other party to approach.
The convoy behind had apparently spotted the teenager waiting for them in front of them, and three guards rode around them.
"Who are you!" A samurai who looked to be in his thirties with two mustaches and looked very shrewd pulled out the knife in his hand and looked at Lin Si.
"I'm a passer-by, I'm lost here, I don't know if I can go with you. Lin Si didn't draw his sword, but put on a harmless appearance with a smile on his face.
"Hmph, passers-by, passers-by, will come here alone? I see that you look suspicious, not like a good person!" a handsome man in his twenties interjected among the three, and the long sword in his hand kept pointing at Lin Si.
"I'm really passing by, I'm a student heading to the city of the school park!" Lin Si said innocently, although he hadn't enrolled yet.
The movement in front attracted the attention of the people in the carriage behind, "What's going on in front?" The person in one of the carriages lifted the curtain in front of him, and it was a middle-aged man in his forties dressed in brocade clothes, he turned his head and asked the samurai beside him.
"My lord, there is a suspicious lone boy on the road ahead, saying that he is lost and wants to go with our convoy!" the samurai saluted with a fist at the man.
"Really?" the middle-aged man dismounted from the carriage and instructed the samurai, "bring him over to me." ”
"Yes!"
A moment later, Lin Si came to the middle-aged man.
"Young man, who are you, why did you run to this barren wilderness alone!" Although the middle-aged man looked forty years old, he looked elegant and quite generous, which made people can't help but feel good at first sight.
Lin Si hugged his fists and said: "This adult, my name is Lin Si, and I am a student who is going to study in the city of the school park, but I am lost in this wilderness, and I am sleepy and tired, so I hope to go with your team, and I hope it will be convenient." ”
"Where are you from?"
"Rongcheng!"
"Rongcheng is quite far away from here, why are you alone, and what about your companions' families?" the middle-aged man asked.
"I fell out with my companion, and as for my family, I have been an orphan since I was a child!" Lin Si panicked casually, he was actually not lying, this sentence was also the truth.
"Oh?" the middle-aged man looked at Lin Si carefully, "What are you going to study in the City of Academy?"
"Learn to practice!" Lin Si didn't think about it, since he had spiritual power, he was full of confidence.
"Oh, you're still a cultivator?"
"Yes!"
"That's a coincidence.,Little girl Rong'er is also going to the city of the school to practice.,You can get close and close.,Maybe you can become classmates in the future!" the middle-aged man smiled.
"My lord!" The leader of the mustachioed guard next to him quietly interjected: "This person's words are suspicious, I'm afraid, he wants to be unfavorable to us!"
"It's okay, I have my own measure!" the middle-aged man stroked the beard on his chin, "It's not easy for this young man to study all the way, just let him join us!"
Lin Si hurriedly thanked him and got into the last carriage.
The convoy then continued its journey slowly. The owner of this convoy seemed to be an official, but Lin Si didn't think much about it, he didn't have bad intentions towards this convoy, not to mention that half of those guards seemed to be cultivators, and several of them had quite good cultivation.
At noon, the convoy stopped to cook on the spot. Only then did Lin Si see the situation of the other three carriages.
The first two carriages were occupied by a middle-aged man and a woman, who appeared to be his wife.
And the third carriage got out of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, who looked quite good, and it should be the daughter Rong'er that the middle-aged people said. She was not dressed as a noble lady, but in a purple and black samurai suit, looking heroic.
Lin Si didn't take the initiative to step forward, but silently took out the jerky he had prepared and sat aside and chewed it. But the middle-aged man noticed him.
"Hehe, Little Four!" the middle-aged man beckoned to him, and a family of three on his side was eating hot food in front of a pot, and there were guards next to him who were on guard while eating.
Although in this wilderness, apart from this group of people, not even a live animal was seen in the line of sight, and Lin Si didn't know what to be wary of, but this spirit still made him a little admired.
Lin Si walked over in response, and the girl and ******** also looked at him.
"Little Si, come on, come on!" After Lin Si approached, the middle-aged man beckoned him to eat together.
Lin Si excused himself, and seeing that he still hadn't given up, he stopped being polite and sat down cross-legged to eat with them.
"Little Si, this is the little girl Du Rong, like you, who went to the City of the School Park to practice this year. The little girl is in the middle of the realm!" The middle-aged man looked proud and pointed to the girl next to him, "Rong'er, this is Lin Si, you may be classmates in the future, but you should be closer and closer!"
His enthusiasm made Lin Si feel a little inexplicable, this middle-aged man seemed to have a high status, and there were many cultivators under his guards, why did he take such care of himself, a hairy boy who had not yet entered school?
Is it because his daughter is also going to practice? I hope that the two of them can help each other in the academy in the future? That is really a pity for the hearts of parents in the world!
But he was open in his heart, and he didn't have any intentions, but he was also calm. hugged his fists to the girl on the side and smiled: "Hello, I'm Lin Si!"
The girl looked at Lin Si, a trace of curiosity flashed on her face, she was born in an official family since she was a child, her father was an official everywhere, she also traveled to many places, and she studied and practiced with the guards of the house, and she did not really go to school in the academy.
"Hello, are you also a cultivator, which academy are you going to go to?" she asked curiously.
"Uh, this ......" Lin Si really never thought about it, except for the Tianfeng Academy where Hua Susu was, he didn't know the names of the other colleges, and he planned to go to the City of School Park to see it.
"I haven't thought about that yet. He replied honestly.
"Oh, what are you in now?"
Lin Si still couldn't answer this question, his cultivation was fundamentally different from others, if he ran his whole body according to the spiritual power that Hua Susu had said, and infused spiritual power, then he could only be regarded as a primitive realm now. But Zhou Zichuan in the middle of the transition can also win.
"It's the first realm, right?" Lin Si touched his nose in embarrassment, this realm is indeed a bit embarrassing, even Hua Qianqian's girl is already in the early stage of peeping!
"Ah, the first realm, the late stage?" Du Rong couldn't help but be surprised.
"This, it doesn't seem to be, it seems to be the beginning. Lin Si sneered.
Du Rong didn't answer, and seemed to have lost interest in talking. It is basically impossible for the strength of two people to be assigned to the same academy.
"Little Brother Lin is really courageous, he dared to come out alone in the early stage of the first realm!" the middle-aged man made a round. He didn't mind what kind of strength Lin Si had, anyway, he didn't plan to recruit Lin Si.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Lin Si hugged his fists and smiled, he didn't care about the change in Du Rong's attitude.
"Hahaha! Little Brother Lin is interesting!" the middle-aged man was stunned, surprised by his indifference, and then laughed loudly. xh118
