Chapter 459: Passing
readx;
If it weren't for the presence of Hoffmann the Great and Dean Statham, Raymond would have encouraged Dio to accept it, how could the person who could make his uncle come to the funeral from Yanjing to be an unknown little person, and the relics left by such a person must have their own immeasurable significance.

"Take it, this is the teacher's last wish, and I don't want the teacher to have any regrets. Gulagas said slowly.
Dio hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out and took the cloth bag, it would be too hypocritical not to accept it, but at such a time, should he say something? Gratitude and trepidation? It seems that nothing is enough to express the feelings of the heart, and in the face of such a precious gift, no words seem to be weak.
Gulagas patted Dio on the shoulder, said nothing, and stepped aside silently.
Hoffman and Statham were always observing Dio's expression, the two glanced at each other, and both nodded in their hearts, knowing how to be grateful, which means that Dio is not a cold and affectionate person, at least from the heart, the old man did not entrust the wrong person, but about the old man's evaluation of Dio, the two still have reservations, no matter how Di O is just a young man about twenty years old, how can he be as good as the old man said?
"Raymond, come here. Hoffman set his eyes on Raymond, as if he was afraid of disturbing the old man in the coffin, Hoffman's voice was soft, but still able to make people feel an irresistible majesty.
Raymond obediently walked over and stood in front of Hoffman, his head drooping, looking like he was being slaughtered.
Statham shook his head: "This kid can be so honest in front of you, he is not as well-behaved as he is now when he slams the door of my house." ”
Hearing Statham's words, Raymond almost didn't lose his breath, isn't this a fall into the well?!
Sure enough, Hoffman's face became solemn: "You're getting bolder and bigger, what's the matter? I'm not satisfied with letting you go to the Death Song Academy to cultivate?"
"No, I don't. Raymond hurriedly shouted: "It's very good here, really, at least there is a place to live, it's much stronger than before, and besides, I really didn't smash the door of Dean Statham's house, I just knocked a few times, and the door collapsed......"
Hoffman was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Raymond to answer like this, and his face softened: "It seems that you have suffered a lot before, so it's okay, young people can't focus on pleasure." Hoffman looked Raymond up and down carefully, and before he ran away from home, Raymond has changed a lot, he is a little taller, his body has become stronger, and his eyes are much calmer, if Raymond was just a big child who was not deeply involved in the world, then now, Raymond has shown a temperament that is already a qualified samurai.
Hoffman's gaze revealed a bit of relief, and then he looked at Dio: "You are a disciple of the Wind Trace?"
Dio's heart was shocked, but he knew that this matter would not be hidden sooner or later, and after taking a deep breath, he nodded calmly: "Yes." ”
Dean Statham didn't know the identity of Dio, and immediately showed a shocked look, Wind Trace? That is a sharp sword that once hung over the heads of many strong people, even the immortal Althea has not escaped the assassination of Wind Trace, how many people dare to guarantee that they can rest easy?
Raymond's expression became nervous, and he looked at Hoffman worriedly, and made up his mind that if his uncle really attacked Dio, he would stop it no matter what, even if it cost a lot.
Raymond's reaction was naturally seen by Hoffman, and he couldn't help but have a playful smile on his face: "It's really a wonderful irony, the disciple of the Wind Scar has become friends with my nephew, who is not a good thing, what kind of attitude do you think?"
Dio was silent for a while, and then said, "I'm afraid this is not something I can guess, but don't you think that there is actually a common enemy between us?"
"Common enemy?" Hoffman said lightly: "This reason seems to be a little too simple, don't you know what your teacher has done?"
Dio looked at Hoffmann the Great quietly: "If you really care so much about the past, then I have nothing to say. ”
Hoffman's expression was as calm as water, but there seemed to be a glimmer of sharpness in his eyes that were as deep as the sea.
Raymond was suddenly anxious, took a diagonal step, blocked between Hoffman and Dio, and pleaded, "Uncle......"
"What are you doing?" Hoffman glared at Raymond angrily, "Do you think Uncle doesn't even have this bit of energy?"
Raymond breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Of course not, who on the mainland doesn't know that his uncle is broad-minded and benevolent......"
"You'd better save some strength and go back and coax your sisters, so you don't have to be courteous to me. Hoffman interrupted Raymond's praise with a headache: "If Little Seventeen hadn't found you, I'm afraid you wouldn't have come back, right?"
"Of course not, aren't I going to come back to surprise your old man after being promoted to Extreme Samurai?"
Hoffman shook his head, obviously not believing Raymond's words, but he didn't seem to have the intention of continuing to delve in, just looked at Raymond: "I'm relieved to see you, but don't think I can take you away, rules are rules, if you can't be promoted to Wuzun, then be prepared to live here for the rest of your life." ”
"No problem. Raymond was overjoyed, and it was already a blessing that Hoffman did not pursue his runaway, and he dared to make other non-trivial demands.
Hoffman turned his gaze to Dio: "It's a good thing that young people have backbone, but sometimes you have to distinguish between objects, if you change people, I'm afraid you won't even be able to get out of this courtyard." ”
Dio was silent, what Hoffman said was indeed the truth, Mr. Vasily had few friends in his life, but his enemies were all over the continent, but Dio did not regret it at all.
"Not many people know about this at the moment, so you can stay here with confidence. Hoffman's eyes swept over the coffin, and there was a little more sadness in his eyes: "My old friend easily does not praise people, and since he values you so much, then I also want to see what you can do." ”
Dio was well aware of the other meaning of Hoffman's words, and if it weren't for the old man's admiration, it would probably not have ended so simply.
"Let's go. Hoffman waved his hand, then glanced at Raymond sternly: "Remember, you are just an ordinary student of the Death Song Academy, if you let me know what you are doing......"
"You can rest assured of that. Raymond hurriedly promised: "This kind of thing will never happen." ”
After the two walked out of the small courtyard, the people standing outside all cast surprised eyes, what is the identity of these two little guys?
Although Dio and Raymond have been baptized by their gazes recently, especially when they are standing on the stage and being watched by thousands of people, it stands to reason that they can completely ignore this level of gaze, but in fact, both of them have a feeling of thorns in their backs, and they are busy escaping from the hollow.
After walking out of the hollow, Raymond exhaled a long breath, the feeling of fear when facing Hoffman was really uncomfortable, but fortunately, there was no need to worry when he returned to Yanjing in the future, because the most difficult level had already been mixed up.
"Dior, last time it was...... You're being tutored by the people in there?" Raymond didn't know how to describe it, so he had to say it vaguely.
Dio nodded, "What do you want to know?"
Raymond smiled embarrassedly: "Or do you know me...... Do you know who that man is? Why is it that even my uncle was alarmed?"
"That's a ......" Theo glanced back in the direction of the courtyard and muttered, "That's an old man worthy of respect, as for the name, I don't know, I only know that the old man is a contemporary of the ageless Althea." ”
Raymond couldn't help but be surprised: "No wonder my uncle rushed over in person...... By the way, Dio, you say I need to apply for occult counseling too?"
"What do you say? Didn't your uncle say it very clearly? If you don't become a martial artist, you don't want to get out of here, I know that as long as you return to Yanjing, you will have no shortage of strong people to teach you, but this is the Song of Death Academy, is there a better way besides this?"
"That's all there is to it. Raymond scratched his head: "But...... We shouldn't have that many credits in our hands, right? It's better to let Sophia and the others go first, I'm not in a hurry. ”
Dio smiled and glanced at Raymond: "What? You think this is your territory, so you're embarrassed?"
"Not really. Raymond smiled: "Actually, don't listen to my uncle's fierceness, if I really live here for many years, in the end, he must be unable to hold on first, and my sisters can annoy him to death, so in comparison, they need tutoring more, not to mention that it is not very difficult to get credits with our strength, it is just a matter of sooner or later, what is the difference between who applies for tutoring first?"
"It's fine. Dio nodded: "Anyway, they didn't participate in the competition during this time, just let them go to tutoring first, I guess I have no problem in the individual competition of the lower department, if I can also play the individual competition of the senior department, the credits you apply for tutoring will be almost enough." ”
"Let Gordon apply first, I'll apply last. Raymond said.
"Haha, if Gordon heard these words, he would definitely be very, very moved. Dio laughed.
"Will he be moved?" Raymond looked disdainful, "It's good that he doesn't think I'm messing around." ”
