Chapter 14 From Lingxia Lake
"Don't say it's good, it's too scary!"
"Lin Xi, even if you can't enter Qingluan Academy that day, just go to be a storyteller, it is estimated that you can go all the way to the capital and open the largest storytelling building in the capital. ”
...
"Ruthless enough. On the one hand, Twilight Mountain Zi, who was just "looking", had cold hairs standing up all over her body, but she was still pretending to be in an indifferent posture, and she couldn't help but scold in her heart: "Where did you get so many ghost ideas in your little head... As soon as I thought about the sound of the midnight bell, I slowly crawled out of the painting with a female ghost with her hair covering her face... It's so terrifying. ”
Nights are always short when sleeping and long when awake.
Although Lin Xi's improved version of the "Midnight Murder Bell" still scared Jiang Yuer into crying, so bluffing that Twilight Mountain Purple didn't dare to look into the black mountain forest, although the group was ready to talk all night, but later lying on the hillside, looking at the sky above their heads and stars, they still began to be so tired that they couldn't lift their eyes, and in the last darkness before dawn, they still fell asleep deeply.
Lin Xi woke up with a tingling pain on his face, and it was the most uncomfortable to be woken up in this state of being close to an all-nighter, so it took several seconds for Lin Xi to realize that what hit him in the face was just a grass stalk, and then he saw a black-robed man with a white face, like an eagle vulture, standing coldly not far away looking at him.
Xu Shengmo.
Rubbing his eyes, to make sure it was not his hallucination, Lin Xi saw that this eagle-like man who kept giving him a very sinister smell, but who loved and hated extremely clearly, snorted silently and coldly in dislike, and then turned around and walked towards the mountains and forests in the distance, obviously having something to say to Lin Xi alone.
The sky was already faintly bright, and the brilliance around him was like the color of the long sword he had chosen, "Morning Light".
Lin Xi didn't alarm the others and followed.
"This is the talent that our Qingluan Academy has cultivated? ”
Xu Shengmo stood still on the grass in the forest, turned around, and looked at Lin Xi with disdain and sneered.
Lin Xi didn't know what Xu Shengmo meant, and stretched out his right hand a little strangely.
Xu Shengmo also suddenly stretched out his hand, and before Lin Xi could react, a cold light flashed in his hand and wiped it on the back of his hand.
A sharp pain suddenly made Lin Xi want to exhale in pain, but at the same time, a burst of energy from Xu Shengmo filled his face, and he forcibly blocked his painful cry in his throat.
Lin Xi's face was slightly pale, and he was completely sleepy, and a small wound was cut on the back of his right hand, dripping with blood, but this wound hurt some bones on the back of his hand, which was extremely painful.
Xu Shengmo still looked at Lin Xi with disdain, and then sneered: "This is a lesson for you, logically speaking, this is something that the students who go out of our Qingluan Academy must remember, even if they are asleep, they must always be vigilant." Although I have always disliked you, but you are a student of our Qingluan Academy after all, I have taught you after all, if the student I have taught is killed in his sleep by someone so-so, then I really don't know how shameful it is. ”
Lin Xi was a little surprised, he originally thought that Xu Shengmo was going to announce his personal vendetta and do something unfavorable to him, but at this moment, Xu Shengmo's words made him just unable to hate and hate it.
"Don't think that you can be quietly loose when you leave the academy, you can take the things over there and leave the hospital and practice every day. ”
Xu Shengmo didn't look at Lin Xi's expression either, nodded in disgust to the woodland grass on one side, and after saying this, he turned around and left.
Lin Xi was slightly stunned, and when Xu Shengmo had already taken a few steps, looking at the back of this eagle-like man, Lin Xi was very skilled in bandaging the stinging wound on his hand, but he bowed to him seriously and said, "Thank you." ”
"You don't need to thank me. Xu Shengmo's figure paused slightly, but he didn't look back, and said coldly: "You have to understand, I only do this because I am a lecturer of the academy, and I just follow the requirements of the academy, otherwise, with my perception of you, if I am asked to choose, do you think I will choose to teach you?"
Lin Xi smiled quietly and said, "What if I prove your perception wrong in the future?"
Xu Shengmo continued to walk without looking back, and sneered: "That's in the future." ”
"My performance in Ten Finger Ridge last time didn't make you think you were wrong. Lin Xi smiled lightly: "Then how can I make you think that you are wrong? At least in the matter of looking at me, you are wrong, admit your mistake to me?"
Xu Shengmo's figure paused slightly, and his voice became more and more sarcastic: "Are you challenging me?" Very good, as long as you can become a real wind ranger or a general star, I will admit my mistake to you at that time." ”
Lin Xi smiled and said, "Okay, a word is a deal." ”
Xu Shengmo snorted coldly, and without saying a word, the eagle-like figure disappeared into the mist in the forest.
Lin Xi looked at the place where Xu Shengmo disappeared and shook his head, and walked towards the grass he had ordered earlier.
He saw that in addition to the inner armor he usually cultivated and a few heavier leggings and weights, there was also a small square delicate bronze box the size of half a porcelain treasure.
The surface of the bronze crate is covered with animal reliefs that are not runes, and there are many circular holes on the top that are slightly larger than soybeans.
On top of the small box was a plain hardwood sword.
Lin Xi curiously picked up the wooden sword and held the square bronze box in his hand, not knowing what it meant.
After a moment of careful examination, he noticed that there was a sheep's head relief on the side of the delicate bronze box, which was particularly smooth and shiny, and there were slight gaps around it, like a button that could be pressed.
After hesitating quietly, he couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart, and his finger fell.
It didn't take much effort, and the sheep's head relief button was easily pressed down, and almost at the same time, the familiar sound of the machine turning came from the delicate bronze box.
Lin Xi's brows jumped quietly, as if he had figured out something, and immediately lifted this delicate bronze box again, facing all the dense layers of holes at the top to the sky above him.
"Poof!"
The world has been free of fireworks, at least so far, but in a few breaths, the delicate bronze box erupts like a firework, spewing out a large canopy of marbles.
All the other marbles were black, except for one that was golden and sparkling, and even in this dim sky, in the midst of a black "firework", it was somewhat conspicuous.
Lin Xi looked at this "firework" in surprise, looked at the dense layers of beads sprayed above his head, and his eyes fell on the wooden sword in his hand again, and he immediately understood what this meant.
The strength of a practitioner lies in strength, balance, speed, perception, precision, and many other aspects.
Moreover, he had already seen the Qingluan Soldier Hall like an arsenal of weapons in the world, and knew very well that in addition to all kinds of extremely imaginative and fierce killing weapons in this world, there were also all kinds of armor with extraordinary defensive power.
An Keyi also told him that the speed of soul power consumption on the battlefield is far faster than the cultivator himself imagined, even a very powerful cultivator will not hesitate to use his soul power, and in the face of an opponent wearing heavy armor, he will only choose to slash and kill his weakest point.
This delicate bronze box is used to train his reflexes and precision.
Xu Shengmo released a wooden sword, obviously asking him to stab the golden bead when a puff of "fireworks" erupted from this small bronze box when he usually practiced. In this way, when facing the enemy alone or on the battlefield, you can accurately assassinate the weakest part of the opponent.
"Are you principled or stubborn? You don't even want to tell me more?"
After thinking about this, Lin Xi couldn't help but look at the direction where Xu Shengmo left, shook his head, and muttered.
"This exercise must be very beneficial, like a thousand raindrops stabbing the desired drop... But these beads are sprayed all over the place, and then they are too much trouble to collect, right? And how do you put them back?"
Looking at the wooden sword and the delicate bronze box in his hand, and at the tiny beads scattered all over his body, Lin Xi frowned again and became embarrassed.
"I see..."
However, he also immediately realized that his worries were unnecessary, and just as he squatted down with the small bronze box, ready to clean up the beads first, some of the nearby beads rolled towards the small bronze box in his hand one after another, and sucked back from the hole that had been spewing out.
With Lin Xi's knowledge, this is not difficult to understand.
I don't know if this thing was made by Yun Qin's skilled craftsmen or the craftsmen of Qingluan Academy, but the machine inside must have used the principle of magnets. To collect the beads, you can just vacuum them.
Just when Lin Xi was playing with the bronze box, Xiao Mingxuan's figure appeared in the mountain behind the mourning prison.
Suddenly, as if his feet were weak, he sat down on the steps of the mountain path.
"Lin Xi's little trick is really useful... Dean Zhang is right, women are really tigers... I can't bear it. He was a little panting, a little sorrowful muttering, and his neck seemed to be covered with red marks.
The sky was completely bright, and the morning light of Qingluan College was clear.
Because this day is very special, before the usual Qingyue bells of the rebirth halls rang, the doors of the rebirth halls were already full of people.
Lin Xi and Tang Ke walked out of the gate of the Zhige Rebirth Hall side by side with the same large wooden box on their backs.
This kind of large wooden box was prepared by Qingluan Academy for each student, and it was carried on his body so high that it was a cut above his head, which was enough to stuff the weapons and armor selected by most students.
In the large wooden box that Lin Xi was carrying, in addition to the "Divine Pear" longbow, the "Morning Light" long sword and four arrows, as well as some things that Xu Shengmo threw at him for cultivation, there were also a lot of books.
Except for the martial arts subjects, he had already passed the rest of the subjects and was already able to practice other subjects, so Mu Qing had already prepared some books for him on the next compulsory subjects, and Lin Xi naturally knew very well that he was cheating on those subjects, so he still asked for a lot of related books in those subjects.
He is very aware of his specialness, but he also understands that in addition to his special ability once a day, he still has to rely on his usual accumulation. My own specialness is just that I can make myself go faster and higher than others.
A gust of morning breeze blew, blowing the ends of Lin Xi and Tang Ke's hair.
Lin Xi glanced at Tang Ke beside him, his hair had grown, and he could no longer see the edges and corners of the "border barbarian" that day.
"I didn't think you'd choose to go to Jinghualing. Lin Xi looked at Tang Ke's peaceful face and said softly seriously.
Tang Ke glanced at Lin Xi and said, "I know that Li Kaiyun will definitely go to the border army in the future... I work not far from his home, so I can at least take care of him. ”
Lin Xi nodded, "I understand what you mean, but it's not fun to go to the car driving bureau to raise horses and get cars." ”
Tang Ke smiled and said: "But it's a yamen under the military department, and you don't have to go to war, and you can make friends with the people in the military department. ”
After smiling quietly, Tang Ke looked at Lin Xi, turned his head to look behind him again, and saw that Li Kaiyun had not come out yet, so he said to Lin Xi seriously, "Compared to you and Hua Lianyue, I am more worried about Li Kaiyun, because he is too upright, too passionate and noble." ”
Lin Xi frowned quietly and nodded, "I hope he goes well." ”
Tang Ke patted Lin Xi's shoulder, "I wish everyone well." ”
In the morning light of Qingluan Academy, columns of students began to gather.
The students of all the departments gathered together, wearing black cloaks, and even the large wooden box they were carrying on their backs, and began to form a long black dragon, and began to descend the mountain, entering the Four Seasons Plain, heading towards the shore of Lingxia Lake.
