Chapter 9: Encountering a Robber
Zareth didn't rush out of the bamboo hut. Writing "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info he and Selene enjoyed the school scenery while eating wheat cakes.
The lookout platform is the highest place in the academy, and standing in this place, you can see the scenery of the entire academy at a glance.
Looking at the main campus from the lookout, there was a mountain where they were about to go, then a large open space, and then a large playground. On the playground, you can see people practicing. There is a castle-like building on the left and right sides of the playground, and there are a few small buildings next to the building, and in front of the playground is a main building, which is also the highest of all the buildings, and in front of the main building is the main entrance of the college.
There are three hills on the left side of the lookout platform and four hills on the right. As far as the eye can see, the mountains are full of lush trees.
"What a beautiful academy!" said Selene.
"yes, I wish all three of us could study in this academy. Zareth said expectantly.
"Hmm......" Selene's eyes darkened.
Zareth seemed to notice something strange about her, and turned to look at her. She took a step forward and said, "Zare, you have to come on!"
"Well, let's do it together!"
"Hmm. Selene nodded slightly.
After admiring the view, Zareth and Seline continued on their way.
From the lookout platform to the top of the third mountain, there is also no need to go down to the bottom of the mountain and then go up the mountain, but there is a U-shaped mountain road to pass.
It took about two hours for them to come to the bottom of the U-shaped mountain road.
"It's finally to the bottom, and I'm exhausted. Selene wiped her sweat.
Zareth tightened his sackcloth satchel and smiled, "Yes, there is only one last mountain left, and it is estimated that in a few more hours, we will be able to pass the exam." ”
"Well, I hope I don't encounter any magical beasts. ”
"Aren't the first two mountains safe to be dangerous? I don't think the last one will either. ”
The two talked as they walked.
Suddenly, three boys sprang out from both sides of the woods, and each of them surrounded them with a stick. The three boys were all eleven or twelve, one of them taller in front of them, one of them was shorter to their left, and the medium one was to their right.
The three of them are coarse and ragged, and they should all look like slave candidates.
"What are you going to do?!" Zareth exclaimed.
"What for?" said the older boy, in a voice hanging, "leave your food and water behind, and let you go." ”
"Didn't you bring your own, didn't you all inform each of you to prepare food before the exam?" Selene was angry and puzzled.
The big boy said, "Ours was robbed by others, and now we can only rob yours." Just think that you are unlucky, and you can also go and rob others. ”
Selene said angrily: "Now there is only one last hill left, and it will only take more than four hours to climb over, so why grab food?"
"It's not as easy as you think, there are many demon wolves over this mountain. We were going to take a long detour, there were still two days before the end of the exam, and we didn't know what the danger would be if we took a long detour, so we needed enough food. The shorter boy said.
"Don't talk to them too much. The older boy said, "Either you put down your food now or wait to be beaten." With that, he raised the stick in his hand.
"Are you going to bully too much?" Zareth gripped his burlap satchel tightly, refusing to let go. If there is a demon wolf as they say, then the food should be kept even more.
Selene didn't put down her cloth bag either, but she also knew that she couldn't beat them if she wanted to, and she didn't know what to do.
"Haha, we're bullying more and less, what's the matter. The short boy said in a strange voice.
"If we don't give you half, we'll keep half. Selene said.
This was the only thing Selene could come up with, and she continued, "We have plenty of food, half enough for the three of you to eat for two days. ”
The older boy thought for a moment and looked at the other two companions, both of whom were also hesitating.
Halfway, he nodded, "Well, okay." ”
"No way!"
Well?
It wasn't the three boys who robbed it, nor did it say it to Zareth and Selene. All five looked at the source of the sound at the same time.
A boy with a scar on his face and a large wooden stick in his hand walked out from behind a tree.
"Is that him?" Zareth recognized at a glance the scar-faced boy he had seen in the rest room in the mountain behind the academy.
The older boy glanced at the scar-faced boy, who was much shorter than him, except that he had a scar on his face.
"What do you mean you can't say, do you want a share too?" asked the older boy, unhappily.
The scar-faced boy smiled coldly and said sharply, "I said no, I just don't want to give you food." ”
"Do you want to be nosy?!Be careful I beat you up!" the big boy burst into tears and raised the stick in his hand.
The short boy also chimed in, "That's right, until you're all over the ground looking for teeth." ”
"Then let's try it!" the scarface boy did not show weakness.
Zareth saw that the scar-faced boy came to help him, and his confidence increased a lot, and he clenched his fists, bound to compete with these bullies. He exclaimed, "Yes, just try!"
Selene looked at the form in front of her, although it was three against three, they were all boys with sticks in their hands, and they were still at a disadvantage, but she didn't speak.
The older boy continued: "Although there are three of you, we all have sticks in our hands. I can beat you up as well. ”
The scar-faced boy laughed wildly: "Haha, to deal with the three of you, I am enough alone." With that, he walked in front of Zareth and Selene.
The older boy gritted his teeth and frowned, and Scarface's arrogant smile made him feel a little uneasy, and it seemed that Scarface seemed to have full confidence to deal with the three of them.
The short boy next to him shouted in a weird voice, "You are looking for death!" Boss, let's go up and beat this guy flat. He leaned forward, ready to rush as soon as the older boy spoke.
But the big boy said to the scar-faced boy, "Forget it, you guys go over." ”
In his opinion, if the two sides fight, even if they win, they will be injured, and besides, this is the most direct mountain road to the third mountain, and there will still be many opportunities to grab food.
Selene was happy, and thanks to the help of the scar-faced boy, there was no need to fight or lose food. She was about to take a quick step out of this place when the scarface boy suddenly said:
"No way!"
"What do you mean?!" The big boy is angry, he has completely given in, what is the other party going to do.
"If you go, you'll steal someone else's food again. ”
As soon as the scar-faced boy said this, the three boys immediately became angry and clenched their sticks, and one of the short boys yelled in his strange voice: "Boy, don't save your foot, don't really think that we are afraid of you." ”
The older boy also said loudly: "Yes, in the current state of the fight, we still have the advantage. ”
Selene was anxious, and secretly scolded the scarface boy for being stupid, and everyone let us go, and they had to hit the egg on the stone.
At this moment of tension, another voice sounded faintly: "What if you add me?"
